In this excerpt from Brendon Burchard's "Stay Close to Your Goals" YouTube video, he discusses how motivation can be sustained through either reflection or action. He explains that by focusing on our goals—both intrinsic (internal desires, satisfaction, and fulfillment) and extrinsic (external rewards and cues)—we can maintain motivation.
He highlights the importance of consistently reflecting on what truly matters to us and staying connected to those goals. For example, he mentions how he personally reanchors into his relationships every morning, thinking about how his actions (or lack thereof) impact his wife, his mother, and his team. By reminding himself of the people who rely on him, he generates motivation to show up and do his best.
This concept ties into the broader idea of keeping our goals close and revisiting them daily, helping us stay focused and energized to pursue them.
