Hi, my name is Lewis Howes and welcome to the Daily Motivation Show.

I'm just a huge believer in kind of like the little steps.

It's like, what little thing can I do that my competitors are probably not doing that might help me like what I don't know just I remember I remember winning the event and I just it just dawned on me that all my competitors would probably this is when I kind of went to the gym it dawned on me that all my competitors were probably going to go celebrate.

Like drink alcohol or this. Yeah, go party all night for sure. And I was like, what if I just

hit the gym? Just, why not? Just something that would, you know, why don't I just like push when

they're going to not push? And, you know, just little things that I might be able to do to get to that

place.

And so I always, and goal setting was huge.

And I hesitate to talk about it just because it's, I feel like it's talked about so much.

But I don't really believe that people do it in the right way, you know, like, yeah, it's great to have a huge goal, but is that, like,

really what you want? No, because it's like, there's so many times, like I said, I really wanted

to win the Olympics in Korea, and then I'm sitting in a hospital with my face ripped up, and I was

like, how bad do you really want this? And, and thankfully, I really, really wanted it. And that was the goal. And I was like, oh, do you really, like, how bad do you really want this? And thankfully, I really, really wanted it. And that was the goal. And I was like, you know, and that helped me get there, oddly enough. But it's like, it's like really finding like what that is and knowing it wholeheartedly, like, this is it. And then you start that little, that process of getting there. If it's like, you know, are we selling T-shirts?

Well, one extra shirt sold is this.

Or like maybe if I drive the car instead of shipping it, we're going to move the needle.

Like any little thing I could do to like move the needle in the right direction.

And so like having that big goal and then having like a bunch of fun little goals on the way and something that would be obtained by getting to the big goal.

So, um, so it sounds like, you know, the universe is going to ask you, do you really want this with the obstacles it puts in your way?

Oh, for sure. Yeah. And people will question it and you will question it. And, you know, and then and then the people within your inner circle, because sure, yeah. And people will question it, and you'll question it, and, you know,

and then the people within your inner circle, because you don't kind of listen to everybody else,

those people will question it, and you've got to really, you know, know what you want.

You got to listen to yourself.
