The Power of “Why”

To be a successful networker, or a
leader of any sort, you must first commit yourself to mastering the
fundamentals.  As a Robin’s Renegade subscriber you have at your disposal
a wealth of resources ranging from a full days worth of audio to articles, even
one-on-one coaching.  Immerse yourself in the training. Get excited about
practicing the fundamentals every day. Start with your motivation, since they
key to success is actually located between your ears—your mind. Most networkers
simply want to make a lot of money and like want to worry about such basic
topics such as motivation.  Yet without self mastery, you will give up
when things go wrong rather than learn, adapt and ultimately succeed.  You
must practice mastering your own emotional state every day in order to create
the ongoing level of happiness and joy you want.
The first step to staying
motivated is goal setting. With goals, we create our destiny! We must have a
big enough "why" to succeed—we must have enough compelling reasons to
drive us forward to do whatever it takes to achieve our goals. Purpose is
stronger than outcome.  Who you become in the process of achieving your
goals is the real purpose.
Why do goals work?

"You become what you think about." If you develop a consistent
and impassioned focus on something, you'll experience it.  The
problem is that most people simply are not impassioned. Without passion
for your real purpose you'll never reach your true goal.
 
Setting a goal is acknowledging to your
conscious and subconscious minds that where you are is not where you want
to be. Having a goal creates positive pressure, which is necessary to move you
forward—you must learn to manage pressure.


Here's how to create a
big enough "why" for each of you goals.

Write down all you will gain from achieving your
goal—why you're committed to making it a reality.
 
Write down what it will cost you not to achieve the
goal.

 
3.   Remember that you WHY must be as big or BIGGER than
that of your coach or you will not reach your goal.
Part of what drives us in
life is our desire, our hunger.  Seeing and admitting that things are not
as good as we want them to be creates a drive to make our lives the way we
believe they should and must be. Take action on the following assignment:

List the specific areas of your life or business that
are not what you want them to be.
 
Write down what you would have to believe to
consistently follow through on the transformation of your life or
business.
 
List the set of beliefs you would have to hold to
achieve your ultimate goals. What would you really have to believe in
order to not only set your goals but really achieve them?  What would
you have to believe to make your life the masterpiece it deserves to be?
 
Write down why you must change these situations now
and why you know you can,  You've probably already handled much more
difficult situations at some point in your life. If you haven't, now is
the time to do so.

If you're business, or
your life, isn't what you want it to be and you aren't on the road of
betterment, then you simply don't have a big enough why. It's not that people
are lazy. It's simply that they have goals that do not inspire them to act. Get
passionate about your goals and you literally can write your own ticket!
