17 Jun How To Stay Motivated…Live From Vancouver!
Today, I’m coming at you live from a place I will always consider my hometown: magnificent Vancouver, BC.
For 22 years I lived in this city, and I’m back up here visiting beloved friends and family…always a pleasure and something I never take for granted.
And on today’s special “Vancouver-edition” of Jacquie Straight Up, I take on a question that seems to be popping up a lot lately:
“Jacquie, how do I have the self-discipline and the motivation to do the things necessary to live the life I want to live?”
Such a great question!
If you ever find yourself lagging in the “get-up-and-go” department, or lacking drive, then this episode is a must-watch. (And please forgive the wind noise…it’s always a bit breezy by the water!)
There is one thing that is more important than anything else when it comes to being motivated and self-disciplined. And that is a having a burning DESIRE.
Why? Because when you want something badly enough, you make it happen.
And please don’t get me wrong: your burning desire doesn’t have to be all about something material like a private jet or a vacation home in Malibu.
It can be a drive to help your parents. Or to give your children a great life. Or accomplish a spectacular career goal.
So how do you build desire? By creating dream boards and vision boards. By collecting pictures about your goals and ambitions. And by feeling the emotion of what it would feel like if you got what you want. Really get enthused by it!
Because when you are, really, really clear and excited about what your dream life looks like, you’ll do what it takes to get there.
Remember, if it’s not exciting you enough, you’re not dreaming big enough!

I’ll see you next week!
Sending love and strength,
Jacquie

Sandy
Posted at 16:12h, 17 JuneI want to have enough money to be able to tell some of my worst clients “bye-bye.” Life is too short to waste my time with people who frustrate me and annoy me. Thanks for this Jacquie.
Jacquie
Posted at 09:34h, 18 JuneGood point Sandy – Although I would not wait until you have “enough” money for that. Holding on to those with bad energy will prevent the money from flowing in, in the first place.

Jacquie
Posted at 08:21h, 19 JuneI love that Chrissy! One of the best ways to build desire for writing is to cut and paste your name and book title onto the New York Times best seller list and post that up on your wall to look at daily!
