What do you do to keep up your motivation in your business?

I like everyone have excellent days and then just plain-ole great days. I choose to have more of the first than the last, however some days are a bit more draining for a thousand reasons.

My question what do you do to keep yourself motivated – LONG Term? Yes I know Money is a motivator but it doesn’t sustain, there has to be something that drives you from the core.

For me it’s BP for sure, I listen and read a ton about people in the business, I take Continuing Education (CE) classes, I hang out with people that are much more successful (insert your own definition of successful here) than I am. I’ve been on this path for over 30 years so it has become my pattern to overcome the negative.

I’m positively charged most all of the time – but there are days where something will creep up that I didn’t prepare for or didn’t anticipate for properly and gut punch me.

So what do you do?
