What Is Motivation Mob About?
We have not met yet. But I already know something about you. Want to know what it is?
You have the potential to do the most amazing things imaginable.
There is something else that I know about you.
You have not achieved the things you are capable of achieving. You are capable of much more than you have achieved. You have not unleashed your full potential.
There is one more thing I know about you.
You know that you have the ability to do more than you have. To achieve bigger and better things than you have achieved.
So why have you not achieved your full potential?
One word. Motivation. You just don’t have the motivation to achieve what you are capable of achieving. But that is not true.
You see, you have all the motivation you ever need. The problem you have is not a lack of motivation. The problem you have is that you cannot direct it well enough.
A magnifying glass has the ability to start a fire. And it does this by focusing enough light on a single point. Your motivation is like a magnifying glass. You could always have it, but if you never use it right you will never start a fire. And you will not feel the motivation you need.
So what exactly is Motivation Mob? It is a resource that will help you learn how to focus the magnifying glass that is your motivation. Simple as that.
Why Was Motivation Mob Created?
Be honest. When you follow the advice that people give you about motivation, how well does it work? How long does your motivation last?
My guess would be that it the advice doesn’t work as well as you would want. Nor for as long.
This was the problem that I faced. Who am I? I am MW. But more on that in a bit.
There is a lot of advice out there. On how to find motivation. And how to maintain it. Here’s the problem. Most of it just doesn’t work. Perhaps I should say that it is not as helpful as it is intended to be.
You know the advice. Be hungry. Build your willpower. Develop your discipline. You have to want success enough.
Let me ask you something. Do you want to have success in your life? Of course you do. Everybody wants to have success in some area of their life. So what is the problem here?
The real problem is not that you lack hunger, willpower, discipline or the desire. The real problem is that the common advice you find all over the place tries to fix the wrong problem.
In the past, I listened to a lot of the advice out there. But most of it just wasn’t helpful. To be honest, some of it was harmful. It had the opposite effect on my motivation. Which was exactly the result I didn’t want.
One day I just had enough. I started to do real research on how motivation really works. And I used myself as a guinea pig.
What I found changed my life. It completely changed how I see motivation.
The reason I started Motivation Mob was to give me a way to share with you everything I have learned about finding and staying motivated.
Guiding Principles
There are several principles that you need to know as a part of the Motivation Mob. But to make your life easier, I will share with you the two most important.
- You can do anything you set your mind to: Nothing can keep you from reaching any goal. Nothing can keep you from unleashing your full potential. There are only two things that you need to succeed at anything. First you need to have the right strategy. Then you need to take enough action based on the strategy.
- You are not broken: That’s right. You are not broken. And there is nobody who can fix you. There is nothing wrong with you. You may think you are broken. But this is only an illusion. What can be broken is your strategy, your beliefs, your thoughts and your actions. But you can never be broken.
Who is MW?
Allow me to introduce myself.
I am Modiri Wisiso Ntsimanyana. But you can call me MW. Or Chief Mobster. Or whatever you are comfortable with.
So who am I?
That is a question I cannot answer. Not because I do not want to tell you who I am. But because I do not who I am. Who is anybody?
I suppose I could say that who I am is the thing experiencing life on this planet through the body I found myself within. The thing that observes the absurdity of my mind. But that still doesn’t tell you who I am. And frankly it doesn’t tell me either.
What I can tell you is who I am to other people.
I am a father to some. And a brother to many.
I am the sharer of good news. And this is it. Achieving mastery over your motivation is possible. And it is easier than you think.
This is something I had to learn the hard way. It is something I have perfected in the process of becoming a life coach.
This takes me back to who I am to other people.
To some I am a coach. But I here’s the thing. I am not just a coach. Each of my former clients taught me something about myself. They taught me something that made me a better coach. So I am not just a coach. I am also a student.
We are all students. And only when we have reached our full potential can we become masters.
My role as the Chief Mobster at Motivation Mob is to guide you towards mastery.
