The Easy Test For How Serious You Are About The Path You're On
The Simple Factor That Makes A Huge Difference
As Humans, We are Really Great at Lying to Ourselves.
If You Ask People How Serious They Are...
In their Career Choice...
In their Relationships...
In their Goals for their Lives...
You will Nearly Always get the Same Response...
They are Absolutely Serious.
But the Reality is that Most People are Far Less Serious than they Realize.
Just Look at the Statistics Around New Year's Resolutions...
What Percentage of People Achieve their Resolutions?
Well...
Nearly 25% of People Quit by the End of the First Week.
Then, this Increases to 50% of People Who Quit by the Second Friday of January.
From there, it Becomes 60% of People Who Quit by the End of January.
But by the End of the Year?
Over 90% of People have Quit.
In Less than a Year, Most People have Quit their Goals.
But what if We Expand the Timeline Further?
What if We Look...
Over an Entire Lifetime?
What Percentage of People Actually Reach Their Goals?
Based on the Statistics...
98% of People Fail to Reach Their Goals...
Over an Entire Lifetime.
That is, On Average, about 50 to 60 Years of Adult Potential...
Where People Do Not Attain Their Goals.
So Let Me Ask...
How Serious are You about the Path You're On?
Are You Really That Serious?
Or are You Lying to Yourself?
If You Ask this of 100 People...
98 of These Individuals, on Average, are Lying to Themselves.
Only 2 are Truly Serious.
So...
How Can You Know?
What Allows You to Determine Whether Someone is Serious or Not?
It is actually Far Simpler to Determine that You May Imagine...
What is it?
Look At What People Do When They Do Not Feel Like Doing Anything.
What is it they Actually Do...
When they Feel Tired...
When they Feel Achy...
When they Feel Groggy...
When their Emotions are Chaotic or Low...
When they Do Not have the Resources They Want...
When they Get Knocked Down...
When they are Struggling with Other Aspects of their Lives...
When they are At Their Worst?
Do they Take Action on their Path?
Or Do They Not?
This Really Becomes the Simple Determining Factor.
Why?
Psychology.
What Happens When We "Say" We Are Serious...
But Do Not Take The Step in the Direction of Our Path?
That Becomes a "Failed" Opportunity.
Now...
As Humans, it is Natural to have "Some" Failures Along the Way...
None of Us are Perfect.
But...
Subconsciously, We also Hate to Be Failures.
This is Such a Powerful Driving Force in Our Lives that, Subconsciously, We Would Rather Be Amazing at Something We Know is Mediocre...
Than to Fail on the Path to Something Amazing.
Why Do a Quarter of People Quit After the First Week of January?
They Failed...
They Did Not Take the Step Toward their Goals...
So they Quit.
Why Do Half of All People Quit After the Second Friday of January?
They Usually Missed Two Steps Toward their Goals...
So they Quit.
This Trend Continues Happening...
The More Steps that People Miss...
The More Likely They Are to Quit on Their Path.
So What Do the People Who are Serious Do Differently?
They Do Everything in their Power Not to Miss An Opportunity to Take a Step.
Yes...
Some of their Steps Will Not Go According To Plan...
Some of their Steps Cause them to Trip Face-First into the Mud...
And Sometimes there are Unexpected Life Circumstances that They Cannot Account For, Which Sweep Through their Path like a Tornado...
But...
The People Who are Deeply Serious About the Path They Are On...
Try to Minimize the Missed Opportunities as Much as Possible.
We Can Overcome the Failures...
But We Need a Momentum of Successes to Overcome those Failures.
Just as the Law of Physics Goes...
An Object In Motion Stays In Motion...
And an Object at Rest Stays at Rest...
Unless Acted Upon by an Outside Force.
Success is an Outside Force.
Failure is an Outside Force.
Momentum is an Outside Force.
Friction is an Outside Force.
If You are Serious about the Path You're On...
Deeply Serious...
You will Overcome the Friction and Failure...
And You Will Find Ways to Keep the Momentum Going and Find New Successes.
Even if they are Small Successes...
Often, that is All that is Needed to Continue the Momentum Forward.
So Many People Believe that Big Results Come from Big Action...
While Not Realizing that Big Action Comes from Many Small Actions that Accumulate Momentum Over Time...
Combined with the Growth that is Needed and Allows for Us to Take Larger and Larger Action.
But...
None of that Happens If We Fail to Take Steps on Our Path.
The More Steps We Miss...
The More Friction and Failure Keeps Us From Moving Forward.
The More Often We are At Rest...
The More Difficult it Becomes to Move...
We are More Likely to Create Excuses...
Succumb to a Lack of Motivation...
Turn Ourselves into Victims of Made-Up Circumstances that Do Not Exist in Reality...
Pretend like We Will Actually Do It Tomorrow...
Or Next Week...
Or Next Year.
If You are Not Taking Steps Today...
Even Small Steps...
You Will Be Highly Unlikely to Be Taking Steps Tomorrow.
If You Want to Become Serious about the Path that You're On...
Be Serious.
Start Taking Steps On That Path Now.
Do Not Wait...
There is No Right Time...
No Right Place...
No Right Circumstances...
There is Only Right Now, Right Here, With Whatever You Currently Have at Your Disposal.
If You Want to be in the 2% that Actually Attain their Goals in Their Lives...
Then You Need to Go and Do Something About It.
Not Talk About It.
Not Dream About It.
Not Hope About It.
Do It.
Start Now.
