Add these 3 words to your phone as a daily reminder in the form of a question:

How can I focus on freedom, mastery and service?

1.  Freedom

Ask yourself - what are the actions required today for me to move towards a more liberated life?

2. Mastery

Everything is learning. When you adopt the mindset of continuous improvement, your motivation will cease to wane.

3. Service

Growing and learning skills are meaningless unless it is used in the service of others. Come out of your own needs to focus on how you are going to serve others. This is the most powerful motivator.
