"'Once you get started on a task you will continue doing it. The key is to get started. Emotion comes from motion. Once motion occurs then the emotion will follow"
I once asked groups of students what is preventing them from being successful. They were asked to write it down on a piece of paper, fold it, and pass it up. I did this for many groups.
The number one and two answers were:
1. I am lazy
2. I am not motivated
When I totaled the responses and read them out loud, I wondered whether they were one and the same.
In my own life I have noticed that once I get started I do get motivated to continue. For me the secret is to "Just Start" and then you will "Just Do It!"
Today's question is:
"What is the first step you will take towards your goal?"
