All right. You don't need motivation.
My name is Mr 2020. You're listening to the Power of Imagination Podcast, where we preach...
Do you realize somebody imagined up motivation?
And they imagined up too "carrot and stick". That's the most common motivation model on the planet. Right? Give them a carrot to run toward, a stick to run away from.
And you know what? It doesn't work. Look around. People do dumb shit. They do dumb shit or nothing all day long. Or they do the shit that really doesn't give life to their dreams.
You know, I, I put having a job for most people, this is for most people, this is especially true for me, 40 hours a week for 40 years I put up there with sharing cat videos.
And, uh, I did send one to my ex wife. I thought it was funny. I don't know, for whatever reason, it popped up on my Facebook thing, and I thought shit like that, so I sent it to her. I didn't need motivation to do that.
There was no carrot, there was no stick. I just found myself doing it.
What if you just started finding yourself doing what matters? Instead of struggling to do what matters... Because most people struggle to do what matters...
They don't struggle to do dumb shit to fill their days with fluff and filler.
So meanwhile, what if the motivation model was something somebody made up and it's totally useless.
My friend Beth, she's not like the rest. She's a Remarkable member. And she sends me a message this morning, noticing, that she notices I'm on fire.
And I gotta, I gotta tell ya, I am, I'm on fire. There's a fire that showed up in me December 25th, and since then my body has radically transformed.
And yeah, my, what I eat has changed, because I have absolutely no attraction to the dumb shit that was dumb shit for me. See, I'm not motivated to change. I'm not procrastinating my change. I changed where it matters...
I don't struggle. I soar. But let's get back to this whole fire, with this whole fire thing. Because my Native American mentors taught me that fire is stored sunlight. And there's a very specific couple ways you can rub sticks together and release stored sunlight.
Then there's a couple very specific ways you can stack wood to create a couple different kinds of fire.
But I seem to digress. But if you notice I'm on fire, and if you think you need motivation, I just might be the guy to talk to or play with. Because I don't believe in motivation. And yet people tell me, man, you are so motivated. When I tell them a little bit about what I do, they say, well, you mean you're a motivational speaker.
Not quite.
I help people unleash stored sunlight.
Anyway. People buy into bullshit, I'm inviting you to do something different.
If you want to explore the stored sunlight within you, if you want to start unleashing that more into the world, I've got two ways to do that with you. One, reach out to me. ones today. That's how I roll.
And I've got another way too, but right now I want you to go imagine up something lovely as we go into the silence.
I didn't procrastinate doing the podcast. Like I said,
if motivation and procrastination are your problems, it just might be because you are living in a world where those, well, that's the way of life.
I invite you to a whole other way of life. So, reach out if you'd like to explore doing some one on ones. My other big solution is Remarkable. JoinRemarkable.Com
Have a lovely day. And remember, inside of you, there's stored sunlight. And if you find yourself procrastinating or if you think you need motivation, you don't. You need how to learn, how to explore, how to unleash and utilize the stored sunlight of you.
See ya!
