1
I will put all of my money all of the time on a consistent person over a motivated person.
2
What's really interesting is that people always ask me how to get more motivated, but very rarely do people ask me the question of how do I just stay consistent?
3
For some reason, everybody thinks that they want to be motivated.
4
And I'm here to tell you, you don't want to be motivated.
5
If you're sitting there thinking that you need to be motivated before you take any action, you will not get what you want in this world.
6
You're not searching for motivation.
7
You're searching for consistency.
8
You're searching for how can I be the person that shows up for myself, for my business, for other people every single day.
9
Because motivation is kind of like, it's kind of like a sugar rush, right?
10
It gives you a quick burst of energy and then it just fades as quick as it came in.
11
If you rely on motivation, you'll only take action when you quote unquote feel like it.
12
And if you only take action when you, if I only took action when I felt like it, I would not be anywhere where I want to be.
13
And I don't think any person would be where they want to be
14
if they only took action when they feel like it.
15
That is the fastest way to fail.
16
Success doesn't come from waiting for the right feeling.
17
It comes from moving forward, especially when you don't feel like it.
18
It comes from saying, hey, I said I was going to do this.
19
I need to get it done.
20
I don't necessarily feel like it, but my feelings should not dictate my actions because my actions are going to dictate the life that I want.
21
So I need to take the right actions.
22
So what you want is you want to be consistent.
23
Consistency wins.
24
When I look at someone who is extremely successful, whether it's in business, whether it's in the relationship, whether it's a professional athlete,
25
it is the person who is the most consistent that always wins.
26
I will always betting.
27
I'm not a betting man, but if I were a betting man, I would always bet on the consistent person over the motivated one.
28
Motivation is fleeting.
29
Motivation is fleeting.
30
It's sometimes here.
31
Most of the time it's not.
32
But I want to be the person who's consistent, who shows up every single day.
33
Think of like the gym, for instance.
34
The person who works out three times a week for an
35
entire year will always beat the person who works out seven days a week for a month and then quits.
36
Motivation is the spark.
37
Consistency is the fire that just keeps burning long after the spark has gone away, long after the motivation has disappeared.
38
So anybody can start something, and most people are really good at starting something, and you can start it when you're excited,
39
but few people can keep it going after the excitement is gone.
40
And we will be right back.
41
Hey, if you want to achieve your goals for next year, I made a free 30-minute workshop video for you where I take you through how to set and plan your goals.
42
All you have to do is just press play, follow the steps, and by the end of the video, you will have a finalized plan of how to hit your goals by the end of the year.
43
All you have to do is go to goalslesson.com.
44
Once again, goals with an S, lesson.com, or click the link down below and download it for free.
45
And now back to the show.
46
And so consistency is a character trait that we want to build within ourselves.
47
And just FYI, consistency doesn't mean you have to win 100% of the time.
48
Like you have to show up every single day for the next thousand days.
49
That's really hard to do, but you need to be more consistent, more than you're not consistent.
50
It's kind of like James Clear.
51
One of the quotes that I love from him is
52
that every action that you take is a vote for the person that you wish to become.
53
And he talks about voting
54
and it's like a person in order to be elected doesn't have to get 100% of the votes.
55
They just have to get the majority of the votes.
56
And so can you make sure
57
that the majority of your actions are consistent of you taking the action that you need to to get what you want?
58
So if you're trying to lose weight, I don't expect you to work out every single day for this entire year.
59
That's hard to do.
60
But can you make sure that you show up four days a week, five days a week?
61
Consistency is a character trait.
62
Consistency is not something that you're built with and born with, it's something that you develop within yourself and it becomes part of who you are.
63
It's not pre-wired into you.
64
Nobody's born consistent.
65
It's built through habits and it's built through discipline.
66
If you don't have the life that you want, be more disciplined. Be more consistent.
67
And because of the fact that it's not pre-wired, it means that you can develop it no matter who you are, no matter how great your life is, no matter how crap your life is right now.
68
The most successful people in the world are not the ones that are the most talented or the most gifted.
69
They're the ones that show up every single day.
70
And if you look at it, like the thing that I love about sports is
71
that you can see people who are extremely talented get drafted into the NFL, number one for instance,
72
and then they don't work and they disappear into oblivion.
73
They have so much talent, but it doesn't last.
74
But then you see people like Tom Brady, who is, I think, drafted like number 199,
75
but he is the most consistent and he still works out in the mornings, puts up his videos on YouTube and on Instagram and stuff like that,
76
doing the same workouts as if he is going to go back and play a game on this Sunday.
77
So the people who win long-term are not the ones that are most gifted, the most talented.
78
They're the ones that put in the work for the longest amount of time.
79
What I would recommend is to plan your life as if most days you're not going to be motivated
80
and most days you're not going to want to do it.
81
You may be motivated, you may not be motivated, but when you focus on consistency, when you focus on just planning to get it done no matter what, you win.
82
When you hope and pray that tomorrow I hope and pray that I'm motivated to grow my business.
83
If you think that way, you're going to lose.
84
If you're waiting to feel motivated, it's like waiting for the perfect weather to go on a run.
85
If you're waiting for that, you're never going to get started.
86
Consistency is about creating the momentum so that even on the bad days, you can still take action.
87
All right, well, I was going to go running today.
88
The weather looks like trash.
89
So you know what, I'm just going to walk up and down my stairs for the next 30 minutes.
90
You're still going to get it done.
91
It's not going, oh, it wasn't what I wanted it to be, so I guess I'm going to skip.
92
It's like, no, I'm still going to do it because I said I was going to do it.
93
I'm going to figure out a way.
94
Expecting motivation every day, it's just not realistic.
95
Expecting yourself can be consistent is where the real power is.
96
So if I'm on a weight loss journey, I can work out when I'm motivated.
97
But what happens on the days that I don't feel like working out?
98
That's where most people quit.
99
Motivation says, oh, I'll go when I feel like it.
100
Consistency is the feeling of I go no matter what.
101
Think about that for a second.
102
Motivation, oh, if I feel like it, I'll do it.
103
Consistency is I go no matter what.
104
No matter what I feel like, no matter what the weather is, no matter what the world is happening around me, I do it no matter what.
105
That is the mindset that you have to have for whatever it is that you want.
106
Whether it's building a successful business, building the body that you want, building the relationship that you want.
107
Consistency says, I will do this no matter what.
108
Consistency is, listen, I said I was committed to working out today.
109
I'm not going to go to bed until it's done.
110
Not, oops, I ran out of time.
111
Maybe tomorrow I'll get it done.
112
No, that's not committed to something.
113
That's not being consistent.
114
Oh, I ran out of time.
115
Maybe tomorrow.
116
No, it's like, I'm going to get it done.
117
I'm going to move my schedule around to make sure that I have enough time to get it done today.
118
If I run out of time, if it is 11 o'clock at night, I had a busy day and oh my God, I forgot to work out.
119
Got to get it done.
120
You know, I used to run this challenge at the beginning of every single year and it was called, it originally started off as 60 days, called the Iron Mind 60.
121
And part of it was that you had to do five different things every single day for 60 days straight.
122
And one of them was working out.
123
And I remember it was me and my wife, we were doing it.
124
I was running the entire thing.
125
I had a thousand people that were doing it as well.
126
I had to show up, right?
127
I remember my wife and I were traveling and we went to Denver and I went to, we get into Denver, we get into our hotel, I'm at the event.
128
I go to the event.
129
I have everything I need to do.
130
We get done at the event.
131
Then we have dinner.
132
It's like 1030 at night.
133
And I go, oh my God, Lauren, we forgot to work out today.
134
And the requirement was you have to work out for at least 30 minutes.
135
And she's like, well, what do we do?
136
I'm like, I can't tell people to work out every day for 60 days in a row
137
and take a cold shower every single day for 60 days in a row.
138
And to not drink alcohol every day for 60 days in a row.
139
And all of these other requirements that we had, I was like, I have to get it done.
140
We have to do it.
141
And so her and I at like 11, 1130 at night, after all of this traveling, an entire day to an event, all of that, we ended up just taking,
142
no joke, took all of the towels that we could find in the hotel, put them down on the ground.
143
And then we just literally did our workout.
144
We put on YouTube and we got our workout done and acted like the towers were our yoga mats.
145
We built up a sweat.
146
Then we're like, all right, well, now we got to take a shower, go to bed.
147
So we went to bed later than we had been planning.
148
And maybe that turns into less sleep tonight, but at least I got it done and I can plan ahead to make sure I get it done tomorrow.
149
Consistency is saying, it's not saying, oops, I ran out of time.
150
It's I was committed to working out today.
151
I will not go to bed until it's done.
152
Because that is how you build confidence within yourself.
153
People say, I want to be more confident.
154
How do I be more confident?
155
Do what you say you're going to do.
156
There's always one person watching you and it's you.
157
So consistency is saying, listen, I was committed to making a hundred calls today.
158
I will not leave the office, even if it's midnight until I make a hundred calls.
159
Consistency says, you know, I said I was committed to posting on my Instagram today for my business.
160
So I'm going to figure out what I'm going to post.
161
I'm going to get it done no matter what.
162
Consistency is, I said I was committed to shooting and editing my YouTube video today.
163
And even though I've got no following right now and nobody cares, I'm still going to get it done because I said I was going to get it done.
164
And it matters to me to show up for myself more than anything else.
165
Because the way you do one thing is the way you do everything.
166
If you break small commitments to yourself, you'll break big ones too.
167
If you're saying, oh, nobody's watching, it doesn't really matter.
168
That's what it matters the most.
169
Consistency is not about being perfect.
170
It's about being disciplined enough to show up even when it's not your best day.
171
And you have to make it a non-negotiable.
172
Remove the mental struggle.
173
There's no option.
174
I got to get it done.
175
You don't debate whether or not you should do it.
176
You just do it.
177
So it's kind of like, you know, as I say, the great Marshall Mathers, you know, the philosopher of great Marshall Mathers says, success is my only option, failure is not.
178
You don't even give yourself a chance to fail because you're just not going to not do it.
179
You know, how many times have you given up?
180
If you really want to succeed, just stop stopping.
181
Just keep going.
182
Hey, I said I was going to do it.
183
I'm going to do it no matter what.
184
It's not when will I get it done?
185
It's I will get it done.
186
And when you rewire your mind to remove the option of quitting, everything changes.
187
And this is what I think is a big thing.
188
And I used to be a great person of not doing what I was supposed to do
189
and making excuses and blaming everybody else and blaming why it wasn't my fault.
190
But when you just rewire your mind to remove the option of quitting, there is no way to quit.
191
There is no other option.
192
Your entire life starts to change.
193
Most people don't fail because they're not capable.
194
They fail because they let themselves off the hook too easily, but not you.
195
Maybe the old version of you, but the new version of you, you're not doing that anymore.
196
And here's the thing.
197
When you're consistent, you actually become more motivated.
198
And the reason why is because when you string together a few different wins in a row, you know, four or five days of wins, you look at that string and go,
199
I don't want to break that string.
200
I want to keep it going.
201
And so I want to keep taking action.
202
And so more often than not, people think I need to be motivated to take action.
203
Like action follows motivation.
204
But psychologists have found that motivation follows action.
205
The more action you take, the more likely you are to be motivated to take more action.
206
It's kind of like once the snowball starts going, it gets bigger and bigger and bigger.
207
Most people hope for motivation to take the action.
208
That's not the way it works.
209
You need to get yourself moving to take action to get a shot at motivation.
210
It's like if you've ever gone to work out and you don't feel like working out, but you're like, but I said I was going to do it.
211
And you just, I'm just going to show up to the gym
212
and you start getting your body moving and you start getting endorphins and your heart rate starts going and it starts moving.
213
And you're like, you know what?
214
I'm going to, I was supposed to leave 10 minutes ago.
215
I'm just going to go for another 10 minutes and you go longer than you were planning.
216
Why?
217
Because the action created more motivation and action is the only thing that creates results.
218
Think about that for a second.
219
Like it's very obvious, but nobody ever really talks about it.
220
Action is the only thing that creates results.
221
And when you get more and more results, you start getting more and more excited and you start getting more motivated.
222
If you've ever lost like five pounds and you notice the scale change
223
and you notice a little bit of a difference in the mirror, you're like, oh wait, this is pretty good.
224
I'm getting these results.
225
You get more motivated.
226
You take better action from that.
227
So if you want motivation, stop waiting for it.
228
Move first and let motivation catch up to you.
229
The first few reps of the gym, they feel like they're hard.
230
The first few minutes of a run, yeah, you feel sluggish.
231
But once you start moving, you get those endorphins, your energy builds.
232
That's how motivation works too.
233
Usually the hardest part is the starting.
234
It's getting yourself to the gym.
235
The hardest part is the first couple phone calls.
236
But once you start getting that movement going, you get a couple of phone calls, you get a sale, you get more motivation.
237
You want to keep making more phone calls.
238
And so my biggest thing that I want to tell you, that's my biggest key, is to start small.
239
Just pick one thing.
240
And what I want you to do is I want you to challenge yourself to do it for the next 100 days, no matter what.
241
What is it?
242
What is one thing that you could do every single day for the next 100 days?
243
Think about it.
244
Say it out loud to yourself if you need to.
245
And don't do more than one thing.
246
Okay?
247
Listen to me.
248
Don't do more than one thing.
249
Most people fail because they try to change too much at once
250
and it's a shock to the system and your subconscious fights you.
251
No, I want you to do one thing.
252
Stack 100 days of doing that thing because success comes from stacking small wins, not from overwhelming yourself with big changes.
253
Focus on being consistent and focus on consistency over intensity.
254
Doing one small thing every single day is more powerful than doing one huge thing a week.
255
You know, most people try to add too much too soon.
256
They think, well, since I'm doing one thing for the next 100 days, what if I just try to do five things for the next 100 days?
257
It ends up being too much.
258
It's a big shock to the system.
259
They stop doing all of them.
260
They crash and burn.
261
The goal is not to do that.
262
The goal is not to be perfect.
263
The goal is to build a habit.
264
So instead of trying to change your entire life overnight, just pick one habit that will create some momentum.
265
And then what you want to do is you want to track that thing.
266
You want to get a calendar and check off the days when you get it done.
267
Seeing yourself progress visually will keep you accountable.
268
If you miss a day, don't miss two days in a row.
269
This is a really key part.
270
You can miss one day, but don't miss two days in a row.
271
James Clear says, if you miss two days, you're creating a new habit.
272
So yeah, you can screw up.
273
we all do that's life don't beat yourself up over it make adjustments
274
but if you miss one day do not miss two days in a row
275
because momentum is everything and
276
so what you want to do is you want to find
277
one thing that's going to change your life massively maybe it's just working out
278
because when you work out
279
and it's only working out i'm not saying you change your entire life but
280
when you start working out you start doing other things naturally
281
like you start eating healthy you start drinking more water you
282
start getting more sleep you start eating less sugar you Start drinking less alcohol.
283
I don't even care about all those other things.
284
I just want you to work out every day for the next 100 days or something like that, right?
285
Let's say another thing that you could do would be waking up early, right?
286
I don't care about anything else except for you waking up early every single day for the next 100 days.
287
Because then you wake up and you're like, well, I've got some extra time.
288
Maybe I'll work out today.
289
And I've got some extra time today.
290
So maybe I'll journal today.
291
And I've got some extra time today.
292
So maybe I'll read today.
293
I've got some extra time today.
294
So maybe I'll meditate.
295
Got some extra time today.
296
Maybe I'll do some yoga.
297
Maybe I'll go for a walk.
298
I don't care about all those other things.
299
I care about just wake up early.
300
Maybe you decide, oh, I just want to eat healthy.
301
That's fine.
302
Just eat healthy.
303
And that turns into, you know what?
304
I'm going to stop drinking so much.
305
I'm going to drink some more water.
306
I'm going to go on more walks.
307
I'm going to, you know, do some yoga every day.
308
I don't care about all those other things.
309
Just eat healthy.
310
Find one thing that is not a huge thing that you could commit to for 100 days.
311
And then all you need to do is just track it.
312
because it's about being consistent, not motivated.
313
Motivation is unreliable.
314
Consistency is unstoppable.
315
If you want something in your life, stop waiting for motivation to get started.
316
Pick one thing, stick to it for the next 100 days, and watch how it starts to transform everything else in your life.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
