Article: Act In Spite Of Your Mood
Any millionaire book will tell you the same thing – not being ‘in the mood’ is simply not an excuse. Leading author T. Harv Eker advises millionaires in training to not let ourselves be distracted from the task at hand when we don’t feel like doing something. Procrastination is one of the biggest preventers of success and achievement, causing many people to quit before they get even close to achieving their goals – often purely because they allowed themselves to give in to their feelings of not being in the mood. All too often when we don’t do what we are meant to do, we end up feeling far worse than we may have if we had simply gotten it done.
Just like acting despite your fear, acting in spite of your mood takes guts and determination. It is all too easy to give in to your feelings and take the easy way out – but as feelings come from thoughts, you have the power to change these thoughts… changing your mood in the process. Rather than focusing on how you don’t feel in the mood to get to a project or job at hand, why no focus on how you will feel when you have completed the job, or the benefit of the job itself. This is a top tip when it comes to millionaire mind secrets: the power of positive thinking.
The Law of Momentum states that a body at rest tends to remain at rest while a body in motion tends to remain in motion. What this means basically is that if you get into the habit of being in motion, you will always be able to motivate yourself to stay in motion. This is a huge trait of successful people, and one that Eker advocates in his millionaire book. Get into the habit of retraining your thoughts whenever you get that ‘I’m not in the mood’ feeling, and you will start to change your outlook – soon, it will become second nature to act rather than procrastinate. Focus on taking one step at a time, until the job is done. This is one of the top ways to become a millionaire by first becoming the master of your own thoughts.
Are you serious about becoming a millionaire? Then you know what to do act, in spite of your mood.
