Sustained commitment explained / The daily rituals and many straw shoes on the path to enlightenment

Every action
needs to be
prompted by
a motive.
Common motivational methods are externally based on
two main schools of thought. A reward of some kind for
attaining set goals or motivation based on fear, with the
driver being the consequence of not reaching a goal. Both
of these theories work and are widely used throughout the
business world. However, they lack consistency. This is
because they both use external drivers to stimulate action.
A person sees what it is they want to attain; then there is
their internal response and then motivation to act upon it.
However, this is proven to be short-lived, and even the
best people can lose their mojo along route to the result.
An emotional commitment works oppositely, (as outlined in
the model) works on a third idea, one that is driven
internally. We need to think of this much like thirst; we feel
thirsty first (internally) and see water, taking action to get
it. Interestingly, if water isn't found it becomes a need and
the only action taken is that of seeking water. The critical
part here is NEED. Therefore by getting the motive figured
out, we see people with a NEED TO TAKE ACTION. Being
pushed and pulled with passion in the direction of
success.These three fundamentals are the foundation of
anyone's commitment towards targets. Spend your
attention here, only when there are maturity and
effectiveness at this level, can you begin to look further
out.
