Financial Motivation 101: Igniting the Fire for Wealth Success
Dec 06, 2023As ambitious entrepreneurs, the engine that pushes us in the direction of our ambitions is motivation. And if you’re reading this, I bet that there has been a moment when you’ve felt anything BUT motivated! And, it’s really important even in the face of obstacles and ‘failures’ (quote unquote - failures do not exist…but more of that in my Millionaire Magnet course…), the most successful entrepreneurs are those that keep their focus by sustaining that inner fire. That is why it is SO important to set specific goals, so there is something to work towards, which in turn has a significant effect on our motivation. Below are 5 quick tips to help you to keep igniting your fire for wealth success.
- Have a Clear Vision First
Your initial vision should be the match that lights up your desire to accomplish your money objectives. Think BIG. Get excited about your vision. Visualize yourself actually achieving this vision. Where are you? What does your business look like? What net revenue are you making each month? What impact are you making? Embody that feeling. This is so important, and will ignite that motivational spark. Remember my teaching, the external strategy is only 20% of the overall financial game, you need to do the inner work first, set clear intentions and then act accordingly with that intention and feel fully aligned in doing so (for more info on this you can download my wealth workbook ‘The Secret To Attracting Higher Cash Months…But Working Less’ in my FREEBIES section btw!). Establish smart goals that correspond with your financial objectives. You'll be more motivated, focused, and have direction to work toward your objectives if you have a clear vision.
- Engage in Mindfulness Exercises
Embracing difficulties, learning from mistakes, and persevering in the face of setbacks are all components of a growth & success mindset. Be mindful and aware of your thoughts; are you thinking INVESTMENT thoughts that are serving you towards achieving your goals and vision, or COST thoughts, which are unraveling all your mindful work and allowing limiting beliefs to set in and hold you back? You must ascertain precisely what you desire. And I mean precise people! Try to be as detailed as you can. You can’t just say, you want financial freedom - what actually IS financial freedom for you? What is success for you? Success may not be a monetary value per se, but good health, amazing relationships & love, a family etc. You have the last say, as YOU have the power to design a life you love. You just need to get clear on what you want, then set your mind to it.
- Invest
After achieving a clear goal and practicing mindfulness, invest in YOU. Get yourself a mentor who has achieved exactly what you want to achieve, and has coached others to do the same. It is so important to learn from those that have a success mindset, are ambitious, driven and thrive from making an impact. Invest in your business smartly, identify your talents and hire people/ outsource work to others that can help in areas you’re not as good at, to ensure your business is functioning at its optimum as you focus on working ON your business, not IN your business. Use your time wisely, to ensure you access your fullest potential and optimize your business without burning out.
- Take Inspired Action
If you are clear on your vision, you’re practicing being mindful and executing mindset work, and you’re aware of your thoughts and how these affect our emotions, it’s time to take inspired action - making something happen from a place of full alignment. You cannot think that if you simply imagine your goals, think positively and sit on your sofa POOF your financial goals and success will fall into your lap. No. You need to take all this amazing inner work and goal setting, and get out there and pull it into your reality. Network at events where your target market is. Get out of your comfort zone and start sharing your story on social media, your WHY, so people will begin to like, know and trust you. Commit to yourself that you will do at least ONE thing every day that moves you one step closer to achieving your goal and dream reality.
- Be in a Like-Minded Environment
Your financial performance may be greatly influenced by the people and surroundings in your immediate vicinity. Don’t be in the presence of people who like to blame others for not achieving their goals, or blame their circumstances for ‘not ever making enough money’. Be in the company of good people who share your beliefs and financial goals, and in your spare time read books from inspiring people you look up to, attend seminars and learn from like-minded people as to how they have achieved their success, and 10x their business. Watch documentaries on the most successful people in the world, start to model what they do. This will keep you motivated to keep on track with your goals, and keep moving forward. Keep doing this and you will hit your goals faster than you think.
Long-term success depends on marking accomplishments with celebration and maintaining motivation in the face of obstacles. You can accomplish your financial objectives and have an abundant and prosperous life by being dedicated to your financial goals, forming wise financial practices, doing the important inner work, and from that place taking inspired action to pull into your reality anything and everything you set your mind to.
Remember, you deserve to be wildly wealthy, in business and in life.
