Hi! this is Ihsan with spiritual excellence.com. In the short training video
-
I'm going to explain to you how you can overcome laziness in 4 simple steps. As human beings we have a limited amount of willpower
-
There's only so much force that we can exert ourselves on a daily basis to take action.
-
The key to overcoming laziness and getting into action is motivation .
-
We need to gain leverage over ourselves
-
and as human beings we are either running away from something
-
or tore something at all times . We are trying to avoid pain
-
or to gain pleasure, we are either afraid of something
-
or we are hopeful for something, there's a desire
-
So understanding these two forces and how you can use it to gain leverage over yourself
-
is key and critical to actually overcoming laziness,
-
getting into action. So here the four simple steps
-
you may want have a pen and paper handy when you go through this exercise
-
The first thing you want to do is simply ask yourself: What am I trying to avoid?
-
What do I not want ? Be very clear about the result and the consequence of not taking action
-
The second question you want to ask yourself is what do I want?
-
What is it that I am actually aiming for ? What is it that I could potentially achieve if I were to take action? If I were to move myself
-
and really do whatever it takes to actually get a result . What is the
-
best possible outcome? So number two : What do I want ? The third step in this process is to ask yourself
-
What's the next step that I can take, simply the next step
-
not every step along the way but just next one
-
If that means putting on your shoes,if that means just simply
-
getting to the gym , if that means simply opening your computer ,and what whatever happens to be
-
What's the next step I can take and take that step
-
and fourth, repeat the whole process. Just go back to number one
-
remember what it is you're trying to avoid . Number two, be very clear about what you can gain and what you will gain by taking action.
-
Number three, what's the next step
-
So after you taking the the first step previously, you go through the process again
-
What's the next step now. And you just keep doing that on a daily basis
-
everyday simply taking one step, if you're able to move one step closer to goal
-
every single day , you will get there ,and that's the key thing to remember
-
Rome was not built in a day, and you can't eat an elephant a single bite. So simply realizing that
-
goals and achievements take time.
-
Is very important to not getting stuck in laziness and in activity
-
and authurgy .And I'll give you one last hint
-
When we're attempting to get ourselves into action
-
by either running away from something or running toward something, running
-
toward something have a very having a very clear vision
-
a goal is far more powerful in attempting to avoid something
-
We can only again even if we're trying to avoid something or still exhorting
-
force ourself or pushing ourselves.
-
The key to success is to have a vision so compelling so attractive
-
that it pulls you towards it and then the entire process becomes
-
effortless . So again briefly repeat the 4 steps
-
What am I trying to avoid ,what do I want
-
what's the next step and take that step
-
and spending a little bit of time whether it's 5 minutes a day
-
or 10 minutes a day on that process are on the
-
clarification and the visualization of your fear
-
of your goal can be extremely powerful to getting into action
-
and in a very short amount of time you'll be amazed at how much parts you can make
-
To define success. Again this is Ihsan with spiritual excellence.com
