UNCERTAINTY

Uncertainty makes you lose your confidence level.

You will have a lot of doubts that start with IF……

But realize this
about ‘if’s’, it’s only an ‘if’, so it means that it is not real or
materialized yet.

If you are uncertain, my advice to you is, DON’T take
action until you are certain of the outcome!

Have you ever joined any competition? Especially in
sports? If you see your opponent as someone who is going to win, what will
happen? You will feel uncertain about yourself and the next thing you know, you
are already not motivated to compete. You will feel very inferior.

You will ‘lose’ before you begin to compete in your mind.

You will suffer a poor result as you will be doing it for
the sake of doing it, not because you are motivated to achieve the results. It
is a very big difference between doing something because you want to do it
versus forcing yourself to do it. Make sure you are certain before you take
action.

You can be certain by using the power of pain and
pleasure to motivate yourself correctly.

That’s why, all motivated people are confident people as
they are certain about what they are about to do. They are certain about what
they want to achieve.

They are confident in achieving the results they want
from the action that they will take. When your mind and actions are congruent,
your motivation will increase to achieve your results.

Do you watch basketball?

If you watch basketball, you should know Michael Jordan.

Observe when he walks to the basketball court. Does he
look confident and motivated to play?

Look at Michael Jordan when he is shooting the basketball
into the rim. What does he look like at that moment in time? I have noticed
that he is very confident when he shoots it. When he’s confident, I’m so sure
he will be able to perform better in his game.

When you are certain, you are motivated because you know
the outcome will be the outcome you want.
