And last but not least,
if you've been trying to make 2017
the best year of your life,
but for some reason,
even though you have goals
and you're doing the exact same thing
that you always have your entire life and you need the kick in the butt to really get you moving in the
right direction, send me an email, rob at mwfmotivation.com. We can see if group coaching
might be something that would be good for you, but don't take my word for it. As far as it being
good, listen to someone who's already part of the group coaching here. My name is Shelby Hanneman.
I've been working with Rob for a couple months now.
I want to tell you there are three types of people in this world.
There are quitters, campers, and climbers.
Quitters never win, campers never improve, but climbers never stop.
Decide today to be a climber.
And if you're listening to this podcast, take this opportunity to check out Rob's group coaching. Trust me, you won't regret it. Remember, Jim Rowan said it best. Your level
of success will seldom exceed your level of personal development because success is something
you attract by the person you become. Thanks, Rob, for everything you do. Success sucks.
Success is not sexy.
It's not glamorous like you think it might be.
Success is waking up every single morning earlier than everybody else before the sun rises and doing the boring, unglamorous, tedious tasks that nobody else will do.
It's the little teeny tiny habits that make the big difference
over years and years and years of doing it. It's the little teeny tiny things that make the biggest
difference over time. And the reason why most people are not successful is because most people
are not willing to put the time that they need to and do the boring, tedious tasks every single day.
And that's what you have to realize.
If you want to be successful,
if you eventually want to get to the point
where you have the money to buy what you want
or you have the money to create all of the freedom
that you want to in the world,
you have to make a commitment to yourself
that you are going to wake up each morning
and you're going to put the time in and
do the tedious tasks and create the habits that nobody else will do. That's the reason why people
are so unsuccessful and they're not where they want to be is because they're not willing to make
the commitment to themselves and to work at it. Success is like this. In the book, The Compound Effect by Darren
Hardy, he says success is like if you're pumping a well. If you've ever seen a handheld well,
if you're pumping and pumping and pumping, you're trying to get water from hundreds and hundreds of
feet in the ground. And for a while, you're going to be pumping. And because it's so much water has
to be coming from so far down, nothing is going to come up. And that's when most people give up on their journey of being successful. When they put in the work and they
put in the work and they put in the work and they're getting no results. That's where most
people give up. Then you have the point where you're pumping and water starts to come out.
For a little while, it's just trickles or it's just little spurts of water. That's exactly how
success is. It's a lot of work and then just little spurts of water.
And that's the next place where people tend to give up.
They give up right there because they say, I've been working so hard and this is it.
I thought there was going to be much more money.
I thought there was going to be much more success than this.
And then they give up there.
But the thing about it is if you keep pumping that water from the well and you keep working harder and long enough you keep going eventually the
water is gonna start flowing and it's gonna start flowing a lot and once you
get to that point you don't actually have to pump as hard in order to get
massive amounts of water to flow out that is the point that people never get
to or most people never get to with success.
They usually give up before they get to the point where, number one, before any water
comes out or they give up while the water is still trickling out.
They give up before the massive flood of water starts coming out and they don't have
to work as hard anymore.
And so if you want to be successful, you need to get out a pen
and piece of paper and write down what are the habits that I need to create in order to be
successful. And you make sure that you wake up every single morning, you look at that list of
habits and you say, I need to do this, this, and this today. You do it every single morning because
success is not sexy, but it is simple. All you have to do is the little teeny tiny
tedious tasks that you don't want to do and that most people won't do and if you
do it long enough for six months or a year or five years or six years
eventually you will get to being successful it takes time nothing built
no great company that you could build and have
massive amounts of money coming from is going to be built in three to six months
and you have to understand that. So if you want to be successful you've got to
put time, money, effort, sleepless nights, less time with family, less time with
friends and sometimes you're gonna have to go out of balance. You're gonna miss
some important events but realize that when you get to the point of being
successful, it's going to give you the freedom and free up your time later on to spend more time
with the people you love, with your family, with your friends, and with everybody else around you.
So success is not sexy, but it is simple. Just do the things that need to be done every single day that most people will not do.
