Welcome to Darin Daily On Demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better

every day.

Here's your success mentor, Darin Hardy.

So motivation is a tricky thing.

It never seems to be there when you need it the most, when it's time to go to the gym,

when it's time to work on that big project that's looming over you, when it's time to

start writing that book that you've been telling everybody that you're writing, when

it's time to make those prospecting calls that make your stomach ache, etc.

Everyone thinks that the path to success is motivation or inspiration, then action and

then you get a result.

You perpetually hear, you have to start with your why, visualize your better future, put

pictures on your vision board, do affirmations in the mirror or whatever.

All those things with the purpose of getting yourself motivated and inspired, so you'll

do the thing that you need to do in order to get the results that you want.

But here's the deal, okay?

Motivation is fickle, it's unreliable and it's unpredictable.

And even if and when it finally does pay you a visit, it will quickly ghost you.

Motivation is fleeting.

So if you rely on motivation for action, you're doomed.

And it's probably why you don't have the results that you want.

You've been waiting for and relying on motivation to take actions necessary to produce your

desired results.
