Stop being driven by rewards. It isn’t about money, cars, possession….
Stop being driven by outcomes. It isn’t about winning awards, recognition, or gaining a higher position…
Stop being driven by, “If I just get this, then I will start doing this….” You should already be doing whatever it is that you aren’t doing.
JUST WORK. Every day. Every decision. Every achievement. Every disappointment. Every time you are told know. Show up AND WORK. JUST WORK. Work on being better.
And if you don’t get what you want or you thought you were gonna get, you still show up and work. Because here is the deal…what is more important….what you acquire or who you become? Work on what you need to become….work on what you are as a person…work on who you are as an employee…a spouse…a parent. Doesn’t matter. WORK AT IT.
A lot of people think what they acquire is what makes them who they are. That isn’t it, at all. It is who you become in the process of chasing what you want to acquire.
