Identity + Motivation = Goals

⏰ Mindset Minute

{January 17, 2023}

So you’ve figured out what goals you’d like to hit this year, now it’s time to figure out the “how,” right? It’s time to make a plan!

*Skrrrt*

Nope, not quite.

If it was as simple as answering those two questions, we’d all be millionaires with perfectly sculpted bodies because the internet is littered with answers to “What do I want?” and “How do I get it?”

You see, when it comes to desired outcomes, we’ve been asking ourselves the wrong questions this whole time.

Instead of what and how, we need to be asking:

WHO and WHY?

“Who do I need to be in order to achieve these goals?”

“Why do I want to achieve them?”

MINDSET HACK: when you tie a desired outcome to your identity and purpose, the odds of you achieving it are increased exponentially.

When what you want is anchored to WHO YOU ARE and why, you simultaneously recruit your subconscious to help make decisions toward what you want.

That’s not to say it’ll be an easy choice every single time, but it’ll be a lot simpler than relying on your will-power as the only source of momentum.
