How to be Results Oriented: Combine Motivation with Actions

What kinds of results do you want for your life?  What do you want to be different than it is right now?  Results can be thought of as a simple equation:

RESULTS = MOTIVATION x ACTIONS

If you have a lot of motivation toward change, but aren’t taking any action, you aren’t likely to glean any results.  How does that work?  Well, remember from our arithmetic days that the product of any number and 0 is 0, so if your actions are a ‘0’ then you are going to have ‘0’ results.  Similarly, if you have no motivation to change, you aren’t likely to have any results.  Your best strategy to achieve changes that you want is to make sure you are motivated in the proper direction, and then take action toward achieving those results.  Having only half of the equation is going to net you a 0.  But if you have a lot of motivation and are taking a number of correct actions, you increase your chances of reaping the rewards of significant results.  Go for it!
