How To Get Motivation To Take Action
They are both self-made multimillionaires who built their riches selling things on the Internet. What’s noteworthy about both of them is that neither had any “formal” schooling. They both moved from being broke to wealthy despite not finishing college.
Tony Robbins is having an interview with Frank Kern and John Reese. Frank Kern, the surfer hair guy, is regarded as the best internet marketer genius of our time. John Reese was the first internet marketer to make 1 million dollars of profit in just one day.
Below is video transcript of the most important points. You will save 38 minutes of video watching time by reading the notes but still I recommend you to watch the video also as it has tremendous value, plus the video has multiple other even more valuable points which were hard to write down.
Few notes from the “Why Some People Take Massive Action and Others Don’t” video:
People buy products and other stuff but they don’t do anything, they don’t follow-up with the material and they don’t get results. What’s up with that?
And why people who are fat can’t stop eating the things that make them fat – even though they know that what they’re eating is making them fat! Same happens in the cases where doctor tells someone has lung cancer and they still won’t stop smoking cigarettes even though they know what the right action would be.
What’s up with all this? Why this happens…? Why people don’t follow through?
It all comes down to fear.
But you have to leverage it to a fact that what your life will be if you won’t follow through?
What makes people excited is progress.
If you had a gun to your head and you would have to make money in the next 48 hours – what would you do? That resonates for the people who takes massive action. They are in the MUST situation. If you aren’t in that situation you are in the desire situation where you are ok but you still have big dreams and ambitions but it’s not yet pushing you to a point where you will do what ever it takes to master something.
What pisses you off and what excites you is all relative.
You must feed your mind everyday with role models and the things you want, that takes you closer to a breakthrough. It creates a little ritual which you’ll do everyday and eventually you get momentum.
You must know why it is a MUST for you. It doesn’t have to be that you are against the wall but rather you must be HUNGRY for something to achieve. If you are not hungry for that then get around people who are hungry and it will hit you. Because you will notice that “my life kinda sucks” when you see other people who have it all better.
Remember you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with. Your income is also the average of the 5. So think about that, you might want to seek different people to hang out with. That changes your standards and makes you want more. From that you will automatically start to change your daily rituals and will get momentum on it and grow and grow.
What makes people to take action, one word that describes it is CERTAINTY. When you are certain that something that you do will get you to there or will get you something awesome you will absolutely do it, for certain!
The no man’s land where you are like “maybe it works or maybe it won’t”… That’s what kills people s action taking.
If it’s a MUST for you, you have to make it work.
Most people have a belief about what their real potential is(no matter what other people will tell them) AND that affects how much action they will take. That obviously affects the results and that result reinforces their belief for even higher potential.
It all comes down to this…
If you believe that there’s very little amount of potential then what action are you gonna take? NOTHING.
But what can come along and fill you with ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY where you just don’t feel but you KNOW, Tony Robbins and Frank Kern’s case they knew because they had to – they burned the boats so there was no other options, so they HAD to find the way.
When you get yourself to that state of certainty where you will absolutely make it work no matter what, and if it doesn’t work then you will find a way – then you tap a lot more potential.
And when you’re CERTAIN of your POTENTIAL you will take MASSIVE ACTION.
And when you take massive action and really believe in yourself you will get GREAT RESULTS. Then your brain will go like “see I told you were a stud, I told you this was going to work”.
And now you get stronger and tap more potential – take greater action – get greater results.
That’s how Frank Kern went from $300 a week to $2500 in a 5 days to a hundred thousand dollars in a month to a million bucks in a day.
You get momentum. The rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer.
Some people go on and tries to do that. They go knocking on the hundred doors and go “You don’t want one of these do you?” but he doesn’t even have to say it verbally because his face tells it that he doesn’t even believe in it.
So how to produce certainty when the world doesn’t give it to you?
“We got RESULTS in our head that made us feel CERTAIN as it had already happened.”
Tony Robbins
John Reese agrees with saying…
“When I had nothing I already knew that I was driving Ferrari’s, Porsche’s and stuff because I always wanted those cars. I already knew I was going to have them. It was inevitable.”
John Reese had obsession towards it and while he was on his last job in the film rent shop and he was looking for Porsche from the magazine his boss was telling him that “You shouldn’t look those, stop doing that to yourself, you very likely will never ever have those” that’s the kind of belief he was trying to put on his head and John Reese told him that “No it will be inevitable that I will have it and I will drive with it to this store in the near future and I’m going to dro§p you the films I rented and you will be putting them back to the shelves instead of me” and funnily enough THAT HAPPENED FOR REAL!
He knew that it will happen, he conditioned himself that way.
Tony Robbins wasn’t popular kid in the school and he wrote to some people’s journals or annual yearbooks that “you are going to be sorry that you treated me that way and someday I will be rich & famous and you will be driving truck, I will have beautiful women in my life, you will be watching me in the television thinking that you wish I had treated you better” and he really did this, people showed those writings to him later on the 10 year high school reunion.
Mind and having your mind right is bigger than the practice. Visualization is so key.
On 24:00 timer there is a visualization exercise by Tony Robbins, very interesting one! I recommend everyone to do that like Frank Kern and John Reese did.
This one simple thing called visualization, even 3 minutes of it can change everything, it can instantly give you at least 50% better results.
Visualization really works. Tony Robbins, Frank Kern and John Reese tells stories how visualization shaped many things.
Condition your mind with the right things and thoughts. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy.
99% of all money that is made is made by the 1% of the people because the 1% will condition their mind and condition their body and follow-up with daily rituals, while the rest will tell stories of how it didn’t work…
You have two things in life; you got results or you got a story.
And people believe that the 1% is entitled to that but they themselves are not – so it’s all in our heads. And it all can be changed with basic conditioning.
Your life can change in a MOMENT. It doesn’t change in 10 years. There’s only one moment when you’re life changes and it’s when you DECIDE IT. When you say NO MORE, I’VE HAD IT!!! I’M GOING TO DO IT! You have to get started on with that.
