How to Get to Work When You Don’t Feel Like It

Hey there, folks! Ever wonder why we're diving into the abyss of procrastination today? Well, let me tell you, procrastination is the sneaky thief of your precious time. In our previous discussions, I highlighted just how costly procrastination can be.

Today, we're going to delve into the nitty-gritty of how to roll up your sleeves and get to work, even when that inner couch potato is screaming for attention. Because let's face it, we've all been there – those moments when work feels like the last thing we want to do. But guess what? We've got missions to fulfill, and it's high time we dive in!

Discovering Your Mission

Now, let's start by asking the big question: What's your mission in life? You see, I've had quite the journey, from my early days as a professional ballet dancer to a career-ending injury that left me scrambling for survival jobs. I remember those gigs where I'd put in the work, and then, bam! The paycheck didn't quite match my efforts, and I'd be left scratching my head. It was tough, believe me.

I'll bet some of you out there can relate. You might be thinking:

  • "I know I'm meant for more than this daily grind."
  • "There's got to be something greater in store for me."
  • "I don't want just a job; I want to build something significant."

The Three Business Milestones

If those thoughts are racing through your mind, you're not alone. Many of us aspire to break free from the ordinary and reach for the stars, aiming for that coveted 100k a year in our businesses. And let me tell you, folks, in the last two decades, I've had the privilege of working with entrepreneurs just like you, and it all boils down to three major milestones in your business journey.

Milestone 1 - From Zero to $10,000

First up, we've got the exhilarating leap from zero to $10,000. That initial ten grand in your pocket, especially in the realm of online sales, can feel like a monumental achievement. So, are you currently at this stage? Have you reached that coveted ten thousand dollars? If not, don't fret; we've got your back!

Milestone 2 - The 100k-a-Year Goal

Next on the radar is the goal of hitting $10,000 a month, which adds up to a handsome $100,000 a year. Imagine that! It's a significant milestone that sets the stage for bigger things to come. So, are you in the midst of achieving this milestone, or perhaps you've already crossed that threshold? Either way, you're on the right track.

Milestone 3 - Reaching a Million Dollars in Earnings

Now, if you're aiming for the stars and want to join the exclusive club of seven-figure earners, we've got milestone number three for you – a million dollars in earnings. It's a monumental achievement that requires dedication, strategy, and a clear sense of purpose. So, where are you on this journey? Have you already made your initial $10,000? Are you consistently hitting that $10,000 a month mark, equating to 100k a year? Or is the million-dollar milestone firmly in your sights? We've seen countless entrepreneurs reach these milestones, and it's entirely doable with the right guidance.

How to Get to Work When You'd Rather Not

Now, let's talk about those days when the last thing you want to do is work. I mean, who hasn't felt the allure of cat videos, Netflix binges, or just goofing around? Trust me; I've been there too. Even when I was in the midst of writing my 15th book, "Power Habits," there were mornings when I'd wake up thinking, "Do I really want to write today?"

But you know what kept me going? It was my mission, my purpose on this Earth. You see, in my case, there's a stark contrast between a life without purpose and a life filled with it. Before I discovered "Afformations" and "Success Anorexia" at the age of 30, I was lost and even contemplated suicide at one point. But those epiphanies changed everything, and I discovered my mission.

Finding You Why

So, here's the secret sauce to getting to work, even when the sofa seems oh-so-inviting. You need a mission, a purpose that pulls you like a magnetic force. Whether it's hitting your initial $10,000 in sales, reaching that 100k a year milestone, or setting your sights on a million dollars, your mission is the driving force.

Breaks Are Essential

Now, don't get me wrong; I'm not advocating working tirelessly without a break. In fact, I'm all about optimizing your productivity and taking well-deserved breaks. I preach about creating "gold-free zones" and doubling your productivity while working less. You might be wondering, "How can he say that after writing 15 books?" Well, I practice what I preach, and that's why I can teach you how to do it too.

Fulfilling Your Mission

Ultimately, it's about fulfilling your mission here on Earth. And if you're still searching for that mission, don't worry; we're here to help. We'll guide you in discovering your purpose while making money, transforming lives, and making a meaningful impact. You see, it's not just about money for me; it's about making a difference. Money serves as a milestone marker, indicating how effectively you're helping others with your services and products.

So, why procrastinate when you could be embracing the excitement of helping people, making a difference, and raking in the rewards? If you're ready to kick procrastination to the curb and aim for that 100k a year (or beyond), join us at the "Freedom Lifestyle Experience."

Conclusion

In a world where procrastination lurks around every corner, your mission shines as the guiding light. Whether you're just starting out, hitting your 100k-a-year stride, or reaching for the stars with a million-dollar goal, your mission is your driving force. Embrace it, cherish it, and watch as procrastination becomes a thing of the past.
