H.L. Hunt’s quote featured in this week’s Monday Motivator, “Decide what you want. Decide what you are willing to exchange for it. Establish your priorities and go to work” hits hard because it’s all about accountability.
Success isn’t handed out—it’s earned through clarity, trade-offs, and effort. If you’re serious about your goals, you must make tough choices, prioritize, and take consistent action. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it.
3 Tips to Apply This Quote:
- Get crystal clear on your goals.
Define exactly what you want. The clearer your vision, the easier it will be to focus your energy. Write it down and make it specific. - Identify your trade-offs.
Decide what you’re willing to give up. Maybe it’s less TV time, fewer social outings, or getting up earlier. Sacrifice is part of the process. - Make a plan and start small.
Break your goal into actionable steps and tackle them one at a time. Consistent progress, even in small amounts, builds momentum and keeps you moving forward.
