Ah motivation!
Writers struggle with this topic all the time. As do would-be athletes. Artists. Bloggers. And even entrepreneurs.
Take me:
I’m a little obsessed with productive artists.
I discovered famous novelist Ernest Hemingway knew the value of measuring his progress.
He rose at first light to write for several hours before anyone could disturb him.
Hemingway tracked what he wrote on a board next to where worked so as “not to kid myself”.
Even if you don't write, I recommend tracking your daily output each day: it could be sales calls, reps in the gym, miles on the track, time spent practising or even posts right here on Steemit.
Why?
Well, sometimes the hours you put in the chair are as important as the words you lay out on the page.
What gets measured, gets managed, and what gets managed, gets done.
Like @bitdollar writes, cultivate self-discipline!
Great examples and tips here @bryancollins. I am going to track more of my progress to help see how much is getting done each day.
Fantastic quote!!!
Thanks!!
