"The most thing that holds people back isn't the lack of vision it's the lack of consistency towards the vision" 👍🏼👍🏼 eye-opening 👍🏼👍🏼 ..."And the best way to keep your consistency high is your environment" ... I keep coming for this every time 🙂
Doesn't make much sense tho. How can you be consistent towards a vision you don't have? Without a vision or goal, you'll most likely lack drive and motivation. You however have to try to at least stay consistent in surviving and trying to better yourself and your life, and perhaps, eventually find your vision or purpose.
totally true; easiest way to do this for me is joining a facebook business closed group - all of us in the group working on the same goal, some ppl are new, others are mid level, but there are many A-players who regularly post and inspire the rest of us to get going and achieve super success like them; some of them are real nice and will give advice to the rest of us in the group who are struggling. Many of these winners were once strugglers who got inspired by other winners' posts
Whenever I hear "hang around with the kind of people you want to be" it makes me wonder...why would they want to hang out with you? Especially if, alpha as they are, their sights are on hanging with the people who are like THEY wanna be. Who, in turn, are...
It is really simple. When you love and are excited about what you do, you can wake up at 5/6 AM with smile on your face and jump out of your bed! When you don't know why you are doing something or you don't like it, you will find million excuses not to do it. #BTA73
I think this is misleading. There are plenty of reasons we're held back from truly pursuing what we love. I think this dawned on me when I was meaning to play a new videogame I bought and was excited for, but wasted 40 mins on facebook instead because the idea of emotionally and attentively engaging with even a leisure activity made me lazy. That's a problem with the person on a fundamental level, not the activity.
This is so true and real, I can refer to the "bad environment" part, I see the biggest distraction for me and many other generations is Facebook. The site is overflowed with all sorts of information but usually 90% of it refers to something "funny, stupid, others peoples incidents, events" etc... and the concentration and time spent on facebook is the concentration and time that isn't being spent on your work, dreams, obligations etc... We have ONE TIME and ONE CONCENTRATION. By distracting ourselves we're only making it harder on ourselves to achieve what we want to achieve. So my fav. part of this video is to examine, explore, explore, explore, what sites do you watch, what are you reading, who are you spending time with? Because nobody ordered us to check our facebook every 10 minutes, but this concept is so deeply integrated in our society that we feel as if we have to check it out because everyone is doing it and I don't want to be left out from the crowd. Well if there's one thing that Evan is trying to tell us with his work it is that we don't need to concern ourselves with "being left behind from the crowd", but we need to "build ourselves personally" so we will be the ones leading the crowd. Thanks a lot Evan, you rock man!
Wow. "Use Love, Fear, and Greed". I never thought of it that way, but the biggest motivators for me is fear and most definitely, love. I refuse to fail someone who means so much to me and it is a fear, but also the love for the same person and their well being is by far a powerful motivational tool - a solemn promise with my soul.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Jaime. :) Yes, usually we are happy to do it for someone we love and we fear that we may hurt them so we also do it too. #Believe #BTA343 Shine
I REALLY like the 30 day challenge he was talking about and how he referred to "will" as a muscle that you have to strengthen over time. I believe that "Will Power" is the hardest to grow and the quickest to go. so before the 30 day challenge is ever, set another goal to maybe go for another 30 or shoot for 40 or even more, but you can't stop growing that muscle or you'll fall off and then have to start over all over again.
I love your message about changing your environment, i noticed my environment wasn't helping me at all in reaching my goals or to make me a better stronger happier person, so I decided to change it and already took massive action. Thanks Evan! 😊
I'm sorry for the late reply here Hugo. Awesome to know that you already took massive action. Yes, it's time to make a change to be the best version of yourself. :) #Believe #BTA503 Shine
I really appreciate the four steps Torabi gave: 1. what do you want to avoid 2. What is the desired outcome 3. What is the next step. 3. Repeat. For some reason when I sit down to begin a big project, it's really hard to begin, because it seems so daunting. It reminds me of that saying: every journey begins with a single step
Thanks for sharing your thoughts StellaJervis. :) Yes, it's not easy to work on big projects but it can be done by taking action...one small step at a time. :) #BelieveNation #BTA436 Shine
Evan, your comments toward the end resonated with me the most. Recreate the environment that inspired you to take action in the first place daily and early. Thank you. #BTA
I absolutely enjoy listening to Eric Thomas. He has the voice for a motivational speaker. He reassures that taking steps is best to completing and getting things done. A lot of times, we all want to get something in one second or think it should take a small duration of time. Great video Evan!
Can you do a video on learning vs working? I know that I need to spend a lot of time reading books, watching educating videos, talking about what needs to be done next, but at the same time I feel lazy just sitting and reading since I am not actually doing anything. Without an actual accomplishment being done I don't feel like I did anything. I just need to see actual results today, but I know that spending more time learning will make larger and more results tomorrow. Even knowing this still doesn't help the lazy/time wasting feeling go away.
I like the part about fixing my environment. To me, it meant my work environment in my home office. My home office corner has to be designed and organize for me to work and achieve greatness.
That's one way to do it Alfredo, awesome to know that you are designing and organizing your home office/environment to benefit you and for you to achieve greatness. All the best! Always #Believe. #BTA363 Shine
I fully appreciated this video. In addition, I LOVED the last part on how our environment can effect our growth positively or negatively. As a spiritual being I firmly believe that our environment should reflect our BEING and who we BE!
Thank you very much for the appreciation Christopher. I agree, our environment can definitely affect us so we should choose something that will help us be the best person that we are. :) #Believe #BTA347 Shine
I am inconsistent, absolutely matched up with Evan Say. My consistency graph reaches to peak and falls to bottom within next day and It happens everyDay- everyWeek- everyMonth- everyYear.
You've got to take some consistent action every day! Start small, step by step. Write down the stuff you want done, the things you want to achieve and focus on those things. Thinking about it and being aware that you're inconsistent means you are already half way there to overcome it! :) #Believe #BTA389 Luka
The gain leverage over yourself really helped me, helped me zoom in on the pain I'm trying to avoid by not taking action. Very enlightening. (Emotional pain from childhood). Thank you!
what resonated with me from the video 1) gain leverage over yourself 2) evan on consistency. I do have a vision board (which evan is on) so that wasnt the problem but it was the consistency thank you evan
GREAT VIDEO THERE....MY WIFE AND I STILL TALKED ABOUT HOW THE ENVIROMENT CAN EITHER STRENGTHEN OR WEAKEN OUR VISION AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN LIFE, WE NEED TO SURROUND OURSELVES WITH THINGS THAT WANNA MAKE MOVE FORWARD EACH DAY. THANKS FOR SHARING THIS.
I like the part where I had to write down the 4 things to question myself of being lazy. At one point I felt that I was doing too much in previous years of me working a job and being involved in an MLM business. Now that I took some time off, I'm ready to start doing work that brings value to me and my family.
Evan your videos are truly inspiring, i do refer to them time and time and they really do resonate on different issues that one face in the life course....Keep the good work on and God Bless
Wow wow Wow.... I love Gaining leverage and yours . I love gaining leverage because it keeps focus and consequences for my response either positive or negative. It will help with prioritizing as well. I love yours because I always wandered why I wasn’t consistent!! That was revelation seriously!!! I am grateful for your videos!!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, for the appreciation and for watching legal eagle. Keep learning...always #Believe and take action to achieve your goals. All the best! #BTA695 Shine
Wow this resonates profoundly w/whats going on w/me right now. I really appreciate the tools you provided, especially finding your spark early in the morning and maintaining the momentum! I know this is an older video...lol
Good morning Maryland..There are 102 ways to overcome laziness. IMHO, the best way is to be a refugee immigrant. Their first answer is "Yes, I will work 16 hours a day on anything". Thanks. #BTA342 #SecretsSelfmadeBillionaires
"consistency, consistency, consistency".... an idea: make a journal, and follow up every day .... be your own reminder..... to help having consistency in getting closer and closer to what you want to reach..... I will try that..
I never considered myself lazy but at the moment because I have no focus on anything particularly, finding myself being lazy. Need to truly find my passion and define my goals
find your passion start to get comfortable little by little working on what you need to work on, have fun on what you do, find way to have fun what you do, and the way I find not to be lazy is first start slowly working and then tell your head to be more concentrate or speed up or what ever you need(not everything need speed but some do)
Hi Evan, Bought your audio book, I had to wait until your book is on Audible, coz I don't like to read books, am more into audio or video Your narration is excellent and would recommend all to buy the audio version. And finally thanks for your channel, I joined your channel when it was 40000 subscribers, it's great to see you grow with a great honest message to entrepreneurs. You are an honest Entrepreneur with great Sales and Marketing skills experience. BELIEVE
Perfect timing - I'm watching this early in the morning, on the first day, of the first month, of a brand new year. A year that I've already decided is going to see some big life changes, but I've been having a really tough time finding the energy and focus to get started on my journey. This video has some great tips to help with that. I'm going to start with the 30-day procrastination diet - which will be directly linked with improving my environment. And because I have short-term memory issues, I'm going to add this to the small list of your videos that I watch over & over. ... Now I'm off to start nibbling on the giant elephant in here :-)
I love that shirt!!!! I'm sure i can buy it somewhere, i will get it when i know i am worthy to wear it. Mr. carmichael, you are a big help in my leadership journey.
Glad that you like the shirt, Roderick! You can order one through this link: evancarmichael.com/Gear.html Glad to hear that our content is helpful to you, it means a lot. Thank you for showing interest and for the appreciation! :) Much love. #BelieveNation #BTA485 Luka
Break down your goals into bite size attainable parts. I always attack writing my book and play as writing the whole thing as opposed to this next month write chapters 1-3. Definitely a jewel.
The environment was the best part for me, because it's the factor I haven't been working on. I know that microsteps prevents me from procrastinating and that the why is essential. I've had too many entertainment videos and other distractions in front of me, and I need to cut those out of my environment to stay focused.
Hello Evan, I've been watching your videos for quite a while, I have several ideas I wanna work on but I've been procrastinating for a long time now. Looking back it helped me figure out what I wanna do, and helped me acquire some new skills. Your videos have been and still are very helpful. Thank you for pushing us all around the world :) Will get my self a copy of your book, wish you all the success you want. Sabres from Morocco.
Thank you very much for the appreciation Sabrine. Glad to know that the videos are of help to you. If you are able to buy the book, please don't forget to send a copy of your receipt, zip and postal code to oneword@evancarmichael.com to receive bonuses. Much love. :) #BTA422 Shine
Watching your videos or other mentors' videos in the early morning actually works for me. It raises up my energy and motivation, and seems like having a voice inside my head that saying: They can do it, you can do it too, so let's do it! And I start my day with this attitude. It's so easy to be a lazy person, but I like challenges. And my knowledge and skills definitely will "grow up" a bit more when I completed my tasks, or get throw whatever challenges that I faced in my life. btw, I loke rule #1 & #3 :D
no way!!!!!!! i got a shout out!!!!!!!! (i just changed my youtube name) This is so cool!!!!!!!! Evan you legend!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D THANK YOU for making the video (:
just on time needed that, love the 30 days challenge I would say anything practice helps, could you do a video on your own way to overcome boredom and how you do to hustle when you feel you can't work anymore. thanks sir.
Thank you so much for the video Evan ! I am boosted up by the concept of environment and future version of yourself. I am taking exam and if I succeed to overcome my laziness throught this video , I will let you know man !! Its going to be really helpful to me !! Thanks a lot #believe
Having "leverage over yourself" would have to be my favorite one. I myself wrote on this piece of paper "you can and will do it. If anyone can that's you." & hung it in the bathroom. I could physically feel my excitement level going up every time I looked at that piece of paper. Thank you for an awesome video! This is something that I have struggled with my whole life; Laziness. I feel like this video was made for me. Lol.
Great to know that quote had positive effect to you. :) Glad you liked the video. All the best to you! Always #Believe in yourself and keep taking action to achieve your goals. #BTA519 Shine
You always got my back sir! I think I'm falling in love with your brain. Stay grinding, keep believing! I'll put you in my Nobel Peace Prize Speech... 2047! Appreciate you! "You actually believe you can do that big crazy thing... "
I like the part of setting ones goal while one's environment matters. thank you for all these inspirational topics. can you speak on topic: how relocating from one environment can positively impact one's vision of success. thanks again
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for the suggestion Yhemisie. :) You might be interested to watch these videos related to the topic on environment: ua-cam.com/video/oEjCdZzDIf4/v-deo.html & ua-cam.com/video/5TLKCmMU1F0/v-deo.html #BTA343 Shine
@@EvanCarmichael The best part when you explain how to maintain consistency and to look for what the things that give us momentum. I hope you could make a video about Consistency and maintaining momentum. Mohamed B.
He is absolutely right about working in steps. Yesterday I ran a mile (it had been a year since I've ran that distance). I thought well let's do half a mile then from half a mile I said I might as well keep going. I finished in 9 minutes. Navy Seals say "when you think you are done, you are only 40% there."
I believe that everything happens for a reason. That the universe brings you what you need at the exact moment when you not only need to hear it but when you are truly ready to receive it. That moment for me was 30 minutes ago when I saw this video while researching for news on what's happening in our government today. The fact that the first speaker (Eric Thomas) spoke of a book he had been trying to write, that took 10 years, sent me into tears. I'll be honest, I started crying hysterically because he was speaking directly to me. For 4 years and to this day I have been in that place. I have been stuck. I have lost faith. I let fear and excuses take over. I cried because I realized my biggest obstacle, was me. I am an artist, writing my first graphic novel on a subject inspired by a dream and which I know nothing about (artificial intelligence). This novel will be an animated film. This is my goal. I will write, illustrate and lead in the animation of this novel. It will be produced by Laika, co-directed by Guillermo del Toro and inspired by Ghibli Studio. These are my goals. This video broke me. It made me realize that fear is a choice. Although it is a very valid emotion, it is how you choose to embrace that fear that makes the difference. I have rooted myself in the choice to stay where I have become most comfortable and have had the most success (coming up with an intriguing idea that everyone I spoke to about it loved). Then came the fear, the fear of failure. The fear that "...I couldn't pull this off." So there I've sat, in the success and glory of an "idea". Not only has this video made me realize I had embedded myself in and built a fortress of excuses around me protecting myself from that fear but it helped me to see that I was not fulfilling my purpose. I am an artist, a story teller (in pictures and words), a dreamer of dreams, a voice for those who cannot speak. The creative mind helps society imagine the "impossible" and inspire hope. This is my purpose and I thank you. I thank you Eric Thomas for waking me up. For being the vessel that gave me a proverbial smack in the face to make me fight my way out of this quicksand of excuses. To take the first step in truly, believing in myself. Thank you.

Best tip : surround yourself with alpha males and females. Studies show mimicry is the easiest way for action
totally true; easiest way to do this for me is joining a facebook business closed group - all of us in the group working on the same goal, some ppl are new, others are mid level, but there are many A-players who regularly post and inspire the rest of us to get going and achieve super success like them; some of them are real nice and will give advice to the rest of us in the group who are struggling.

find your passion start to get comfortable little by little working on what you need to work on, have fun on what you do, find way to have fun what you do, and the way I find not to be lazy is first start slowly working and then tell your head to be more concentrate or speed up or what ever you need(not everything need speed but some do)

Your narration is excellent and would recommend all to buy the audio version.

Perfect timing - I'm watching this early in the morning, on the first day, of the first month, of a brand new year. A year that I've already decided is going to see some big life changes, but I've been having a really tough time finding the energy and focus to get started on my journey. This video has some great tips to help with that. I'm going to start with the 30-day procrastination diet - which will be directly linked with improving my environment. And because I have short-term memory issues, I'm going to add this to the small list of your videos that I watch over & over. ... Now I'm off to start nibbling on the giant elephant in here :-)
You can do it Kelly! All the best to you! Always #Believe, keep taking action and never give up. :) #BTA371 Shine
I loved the 4th point of using love, fear and greed to conquer laziness as in the past it did work out for me :)
Thanks for sharing :) #BTA867 Luka

That is so true about "environment". it is everything.
Thanks for watching and for the comment Kee Kee. :) #BTA457 Shine
Your words absolutely true I been told so many years you can't accomplish anything
Glad you liked it. Don't mind those hateful comments, work for yourself not for them. 😊 #Believe - Feb
This content has been so good to me! Thanks, Evan.
So glad to know that Chebrya. :) Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts and for watching! #Believe #BTA628 Shine
Break down your goals into bite size attainable parts. I always attack writing my book and play as writing the whole thing as opposed to this next month write chapters 1-3. Definitely a jewel.
Thank you for sharing with us and thanks for watching. :) #BelieveNation #BTA736 Luka
Nice one! Good looking out Evan!
The environment was the best part for me, because it's the factor I haven't been working on. I know that microsteps prevents me from procrastinating and that the why is essential. I've had too many entertainment videos and other distractions in front of me, and I need to cut those out of my environment to stay focused.
Thank you for sharing with us and thanks for watching. :) #BelieveNation #BTA765 Luka
Love the idea of the "procrastination diet" very helpful
Glad to know it is helpful to you Jasmin. :) #BTA346 Shine
Hello Evan,
I've been watching your videos for quite a while, I have several ideas I wanna work on but I've been procrastinating for a long time now. Looking back it helped me figure out what I wanna do, and helped me acquire some new skills.
Your videos have been and still are very helpful.
Thank you for pushing us all around the world :) Will get my self a copy of your book, wish you all the success you want.

Whoa. Number 3 was spot on for me. Love your videos.
Glad you loved the videos. :) Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for watching! #BelieveNation #BTA357 Shine
Watching your videos or other mentors' videos in the early morning actually works for me. It raises up my energy and motivation, and seems like having a voice inside my head that saying: They can do it, you can do it too, so let's do it! And I start my day with this attitude. It's so easy to be a lazy person, but I like challenges. And my knowledge and skills definitely will "grow up" a bit more when I completed my tasks, or get throw whatever challenges that I faced in my life.
btw, I loke rule #1 & #3 :D
That's so awesome to know Ngoc. For sure with that attitude, you'll achieve your goals and achieve more. Always #Believe in yourself. :) #BTA482 Shine
Thanks Evan :))
my favorite is#3... spoke to me and explains my laziness!!

I love the 30 day procrastination diet.. The last nugget of wisdom for me is your statement .. It isn't lack of knowledge its lack of consistency.
**it isn't the lack of the vision. Its the lack of consistency**
Thanks for watching and for sharing your thoughts Samerra. :) #Believe #BTA587 Shine

THANK YOU for making the video (:
Salute to you man, you are really great at making these videos...
just on time needed that, love the 30 days challenge I would say anything practice helps, could you do a video on your own way to overcome boredom and how you do to hustle when you feel you can't work anymore. thanks sir.
"Do something each day that you've been resisting!" 💯✊
That's right! :) #BTA1186 Luka
The 4th clip Is the best! "What it is that you don't want!"...
Thank you for sharing with us and thanks for watching. :) #BelieveNation #BTA675 Luka

Glad it's helpful to you :) #BTA931 Luka
Having "leverage over yourself" would have to be my favorite one. I myself wrote on this piece of paper "you can and will do it. If anyone can that's you." & hung it in the bathroom. I could physically feel my excitement level going up every time I looked at that piece of paper. Thank you for an awesome video! This is something that I have struggled with my whole life; Laziness. I feel like this video was made for me. Lol.
Great to know that quote had positive effect to you. :) Glad you liked the video. All the best to you! Always #Believe in yourself and keep taking action to achieve your goals. #BTA519 Shine
Evan!!! Loving the videos right now, keep em coming.
Please do:

Best advice is taking breaking it up into small pieces instead of trying to tackle big chunks!
Awesome! Keep going. #Believe 💪💪😊 - Dondon

I like the part of setting ones goal while one's environment matters. thank you for all these inspirational topics. can you speak on topic: how relocating from one environment can positively impact one's vision of success. thanks again

@@EvanCarmichael The best part when you explain how to maintain consistency and to look for what the things that give us momentum. I hope you could make a video about Consistency and maintaining momentum. Mohamed B.
I liked the idea of the 30 days procrastination challenge
Thanks for the comment and for watching TheRoadrunz. :) #Believe #BTA521 Shine
He is absolutely right about working in steps. Yesterday I ran a mile (it had been a year since I've ran that distance). I thought well let's do half a mile then from half a mile I said I might as well keep going. I finished in 9 minutes. Navy Seals say "when you think you are done, you are only 40% there."
Cool to know you were able to ran that mile Derek. :) More power to you! Always #Believe and keep taking action to achieve your goals. #BTA603 Shine
I believe that everything happens for a reason. That the universe brings you what you need at the exact moment when you not only need to hear it but when you are truly ready to receive it. That moment for me was 30 minutes ago when I saw this video while researching for news on what's happening in our government today. The fact that the first speaker (Eric Thomas) spoke of a book he had been trying to write, that took 10 years, sent me into tears. I'll be honest, I started crying hysterically because he was speaking directly to me. For 4 years and to this day I have been in that place. I have been stuck. I have lost faith. I let fear and excuses take over. I cried because I realized my biggest obstacle, was me. I am an artist, writing my first graphic novel on a subject inspired by a dream and which I know nothing about (artificial intelligence). This novel will be an animated film. This is my goal. I will write, illustrate and lead in the animation of this novel. It will be produced by Laika, co-directed by Guillermo del Toro and inspired by Ghibli Studio. These are my goals. This video broke me. It made me realize that fear is a choice. Although it is a very valid emotion, it is how you choose to embrace that fear that makes the difference. I have rooted myself in the choice to stay where I have become most comfortable and have had the most success (coming up with an intriguing idea that everyone I spoke to about it loved). Then came the fear, the fear of failure. The fear that "...I couldn't pull this off." So there I've sat, in the success and glory of an "idea". Not only has this video made me realize I had embedded myself in and built a fortress of excuses around me protecting myself from that fear but it helped me to see that I was not fulfilling my purpose. I am an artist, a story teller (in pictures and words), a dreamer of dreams, a voice for those who cannot speak. The creative mind helps society imagine the "impossible" and inspire hope. This is my purpose and I thank you. I thank you Eric Thomas for waking me up. For being the vessel that gave me a proverbial smack in the face to make me fight my way out of this quicksand of excuses. To take the first step in truly, believing in myself. Thank you.
30 day procrastination diet here i come! ~
All the best to you Pj Kingdom! :) #Believe and just do it! #BTA504 Shine
