Are You Suffering From Too Much “Motivation” ?

Are You Suffering From Too Much “Motivation” ?

Be careful of people that call themselves passion or motivational coaches. Passion and motivation are the smoke that often get blown up ya. You don’t need more passion or motivation. You need to clearly define what you want, stand up on your own two feet, and start walking that way. Everybody has passion. But few have action. I’ll work with anybody willing to take any steps, no matter how small, towards where they want to be. But posting motivational post on Pinterest all day long does not a goal make.

Get off your butt and do something. You will kick a passionate person’s butt any day of the week.

    Hey Patrick,

    I think it’s important to be motivated but clearly if your motivation is spurred by someone else’s vision or dream – then it’s not yours to begin with. You made an excellent point about having your own vision :) Thanks for sharing!

      Thanks Andrea. It is good to be pushed by something you saw or heard. But for long term growth you need your own path. Keep building your own path.
