I've mentioned the PIT before fella
And I promise I will cover that soon
But today I want to talk about the valley of
dispair.
This is when you're ready to burn everything
to the ground.
When you're ready to give up
Throw in the towel..
Normally with thoughts or words of
It's too difficult,
It's too much work
There's too much to do
Or my old favorite
Things ain't that bad anyway.
You see there is something called the cycle
of change.
You set your goal, target or plan.
And you are full of motivation.
Anything seems possible and you are looking
forward too the challenge.
This is called uninformed optimism.
You're ready to go but you have no idea how
much work it will take.
Then you start to realize what it will take
to hit your goal.
There is more work than you realize and you
start to lose motivation.
This is called informed pessimism
Now things get tough. You feel overwhelmed,
tired and unmotivated.
The valley of despair
This is where you most likely give up
Why?
Because if you go back to the start
And start again
Set new goals
New targets.
You will feel good again
Motivated,
And have absolutely no idea how much work it
will take to hit your NEW goal.
Uninformed optimism.
However
Subconsciously you have just reinforced that..
You failed..
Again…
But what if when you were at at stage 2
Informed pessimism
You just kept going.
Regardless of hitting your goal or not.
Subconsciously, now you believe that you will
keep going.
No matter what.
To the finish.
Like a fxcking Warrior
Here's where the power is fella
Then the next time you set a goal.
You now know however tough it may be or
difficult to achieve
You KNOW you will keep going.
Till the end
And that my friend builds bad ass confidence.
Confidence and energy are your two
biggest allies.
In building ANYTHING.
