The Smart Way To Take Massive Action

 

The Smart Way to Take massive action is not always easy.  Some people assume that taking massive action only needs to happen once to get them started, but you will find that with each new project and stage in your life you will need to bump up that action. It’s a continuous process. After all, once you reach your first goal, there are going to be other ones you want to tackle and conquer too, right? So how do you keep up the momentum? There are going to be setbacks and times when you question if the goal is really worth the time and energy it requires to reach it. When you hit a slump or come up against self-doubt, here are some ways to get back your motivation to continue taking the massive action required to succeed.

Hang around with like-minded people
Want to know how to become a better person?  When you first make the decision to go for your goal in a big way, you should look for support to help you achieve it. Whether you are learning a new language so you can travel or getting more fit or starting a business, it’s smart to hang out with others who have the same goal. It’s easy now to find people with the same ambitions–look online in forums or look at options in your local area. Many times you can find a group who meets regularly to be there for you when you need a boost.

Look back at what you’ve already accomplished

Sometime you may feel like you are working hard, but getting nowhere. This can dampen your enthusiasm for sure. But you’ve done more than what you realize! Go back through your planner or goal journal and refresh your memory of all the small steps you’ve taken that add up to getting you much closer to reaching your goal!

Break tasks down into smaller pieces

Taking big action can be frightening. If you are feeling like you can’t deal with a particular action you need to take to move on, try breaking that step down into several pieces. That will make it feel more manageable, and you will be able to see success more quickly as you check smaller tasks off your to do list.

Use a sounding board

Talking out where you are stuck can be a huge help! Choose one of the people in your support group or even a sympathetic friend or relative to use as a sounding board. Even if they haven’t been in your exact situation before, they will have expected something in their lives similar enough that they will be able to empathize. They don’t necessarily need to give you advice, but rather, be there to let you talk through the decisions you are trying to make.
