51. How Do You Push Yourself?

Today I slapped my brother on the podcast. It was fun, awkward and part of our journey find our greatness. We talk about his trip overseas and the experiences he encountered that pushed him in all sorts of ways. We often don’t realize it but most of the time our default operating system is running the show. The trick is to realize that the real opportunities for growth lay beneath the surface of our tendencies and habits. The ability to push yourself requires you to reveal what’s underneath that thing we do. To look at that thing, habit, action from a new perspective. The new perspective lives inside of creating situations that push your comfort zones and open you up to new and unexpected possibilities for adventure, fulfillment and growth. That is where the notion of being motivated gets generated from. Motivation is a byproduct of pushing yourself and expanding your boundaries. It cannot exist on its own for very long. So what are you curious about? What are you interested in and want to learn? Be open and understand that it’s about the process of going from point a to b to c. That it will not always go the way you expect it to go and that the less than positive experience you encountered is quite likely the necessary step you need to take to move towards what you really want.
