The Limitless Landscapers Podcast - Motivation or Discipline?

Apr 03 2024 17 mins

In this podcast, I talk about how important it is to stay motivated and disciplined when chasing your goals, whether it's in business or personal life. I've been thinking a lot about this, especially as I'm working towards my first bodybuilding competition, which needs a lot of both motivation and discipline.

Let's start with motivation. It's what gets us going, that spark of excitement and passion for what we want to achieve. For me, it's about setting goals and working towards them, like when I was in sales or now, running my landscaping business.

But here's the thing about motivation – it can come and go. Sometimes we feel super excited, and other times we're not so sure. That's where discipline comes in. Discipline is about sticking to your plans and doing what needs to be done, even when you don't feel like it.

I believe discipline is even more important than motivation because it keeps us on track when things get tough. While motivation helps us set goals, discipline helps us actually reach them by sticking to our routines and plans, no matter what.

Right now, I'm preparing for my bodybuilding competition. I'm really motivated to do well, but it's my discipline that keeps me following my strict diet and training schedule every day. To keep my motivation up, I use techniques like setting goals, imagining myself succeeding, and celebrating small wins along the way. These things help me stay focused and excited about what I'm doing.

To stay disciplined, I create routines, control my impulses (like not eating too much chocolate!), and set deadlines for myself. This keeps me accountable and helps me keep moving forward, even when I don't feel like it.

Looking ahead, I'm excited to announce a webinar I'm hosting with Kendall from Builder Story. We'll be sharing tips on how to build a successful landscaping business, combining my knowledge of business systems with Kendall's expertise in online marketing.

In conclusion, staying motivated and disciplined is really important for reaching your goals. So let's keep setting goals, staying disciplined, and chasing our dreams, one step at a time. Stay motivated, stay disciplined, and keep going for your dreams!
