When you first start working toward a goal, it’s easy to get motivated. You’re excited about achieving something big, and the momentum keeps you moving forward.
But there comes a point when the excitement wears off, and you’re stuck with the daily grind. The not-so-exciting, consistent steps you need to take every day to reach your big goal.
So, how do you keep showing up for yourself, even when it gets monotonous?
On this episode of Career Confessions, I share my glass elevator metaphor for working toward a big goal, challenging you to identify the friction factors that are keeping you from reaching the top.
I explain why it’s crucial to keep the promises you make to yourself and explore how a challenge like 75 Hard can help you build the confidence it takes to achieve big things.
Listen in for insight around the sacrifices it takes to be successful and learn how to take consistent steps toward your big goals each day—even when it’s tedious or the circumstances are not ideal.
