Ep. 48 – Motivation vs. Momentum

In the latest episode of the Pillar Talk with Chris Ross Podcast, we dive deep into the concept of momentum and how it can transform your approach to achieving your goals. Chris shares personal insights on shifting from a reliance on fleeting motivation to cultivating a consistent sense of momentum in both personal and professional life. He emphasizes that while motivation can be temporary and influenced by external factors, momentum is something you can actively create and sustain through disciplined action and commitment to your goals.

Chris outlines practical strategies for manufacturing momentum, including the importance of following through on commitments to yourself. He points out that breaking the cycle of excuses and focusing on what you can control leads to greater confidence and improved outcomes. By replacing feelings with facts, you can eliminate self-doubt and foster a mindset geared toward action. This is crucial because the actions you take today lay the foundation for the future, regardless of how you feel about them.

The episode highlights the necessity of doing hard things, especially when motivation wanes. Chris argues that winners execute their plans despite challenges, and success comes from being consistent, even when it feels uncomfortable. By treating yourself as the version of you that you aspire to be, you can create the discipline needed to maintain momentum. He encourages listeners to identify what “Consistent You” would do and align actions accordingly.

Don’t wait for motivation to strike; instead, focus on building a routine that allows you to thrive.
