5 Ways to Stay Motivated and Reach Your Goals
We’re already heading into the final week of quarter one in 2021, and as we say in the business world, it is time to reflect on the start of the year and assess if your company is on track to hit their goals. Ironically even if we’re off the mark, we are also finalizing another set of aggressive plans for the next three months.
12 Lessons From The 4x4x48
Committing to the David Goggins’ 4x4x48 was one thing. Unfortunately like a lot of things in life, talk is cheap. In Part I I took you inside some of my curiosity and preparation, Part II unpacks the tole each run took while also exploring what kept me going all weekend.
Accepting The 4x4x48 Challenge
On March 5, I accepted and took on the David Goggins 4x4x48 challenge. The rules were simple; run four miles, every four hours, for 48 hours. Goggins removed barriers for entry. This made it free, virtual and you didn't even have to run. You could walk, bike, workout, row, stretch, whatever. Ultimately, you just had to do something for 40 minutes every four hours for two days.
Phase III - 2020
A month ago I was entering Phase II, one with goals set around continuing to perform on a daily basis. I had a foundation set and my confidence was building but I also saw patterns where I usually slip and take big steps backwards. Phase II was a success, not perfect by any means but a success for where I am in 2020. I continued executing my conditioning program, introduced weight training back into my routine and noticed a new baseline in how I felt, my weight and overall capacity.
Level Up…At Any Cost
The ultimate competitor. Call it what you want but MJ knew how to use fear and a relentless pace to pull his teammates up to his level.
Phase II - 2020
Kicking off Phase II of my goals that I've set for the spring. Phase 1 was really all about rebuilding a foundation I felt comfortable with and more importantly confident with. My struggles have been not putting in the work consistently enough, I needed to find that. Luckily I did and with results I'm happy with.
Standards Through Leadership Drive Consistency
Staying home has given me a chance to get hooked on and watch a lot of Gordon Ramsey shows. While his intensity cannot be questioned, his motives strike me as a perfect balance of using fear to get results along with demanding excellence from a position of love.
Michael Jordan on Passion
Leaders recognize passion and characteristics in people that others don't always see. They understand the drive, they relate with the energy and when times get tough they know how to fight through or when to pull back.
Be Scrappy
Q1 is almost over and sometimes you have to dig a little to hit goals and create momentum that will carry you through the year. So I encourage all of you to Be Scrappy.
Make Big Changes
An essential aspect to taking on new challenges, and accepting more responsibility. How can we do more if we only know how do what we've done?
It Can Be That Simple.
