We all make excuses.

But the successful ones are those who can kill the excuses like the miserable maggots they are.

I'm too tired. I don't have the time. I don't feel motivated. I'd rather do nothing. I don't have the money, equipment, space. I can't because …

We've all made the excuses. Here's how to kill them.

1. See the positive.Excuses are usually made because we don't feel like doing something - we're accentuating the negative. Instead, see the fun in something, the joy in it. And maintain a positive attitude, or you'll never beat the excuses.

2. Take responsibility.Excuses are ways to get out of owning up to something. If we don't have the time, money, equipment, etc., then it's not our fault, right? Wrong. Take responsibility, and own the solution.

3. Find a solution.Just about every problem has a solution. Don't have time? Start with just 5-10 minutes. Make the time. Wake earlier. Do it during lunch. Don't have a gym membership? Workout at home or in the office. Don't have the energy? Do it when you have higher levels of energy. You're smart. Figure out the solution.

4. See your goal.This is your motivation - your reason for doing it. Sure, you could just lay on the couch, but if you think about why you really want to pursue a goal, you'll be motivated. Visualize that goal and just get started.

5. Be accountable.Have a workout partner, a project partner, a team, someone to report to. If you have to meet a coach or partner, you're more likely to do something.

6. Go ahead and make your excuses.Then do it anyway.

7. Watch this. Then go an do it.

我们所有人都会找借口！

但是那些成功人士却都是些能将借口像害虫一样灭掉的人。我太累了。我没有时间。我觉得没有动力。我什么都不想做。我没有钱、没有设备、没有空间。我不能，是因为……

我们总能找到太多的借口，这里我告诉几个打消它们的秘诀：

1.寻找积极乐观之处。借口通常是由于我们不想去做而产生的--我们总在强调消极的一面。相反，寻找乐趣，享受其中。保持一个积极的心态，那么你再也不会被借口打败。

2.负起责任心。借口是逃避承认很多事情的方式。如果我没有时间，没有金钱，没有装备等等，那么这也不是我的错，对吧？错！负起责任，去寻找解决办法。

3.想办法解决。每件事情都有解决的办法。没有时间吗？挤出5-10分钟，有效利用时间。早起一会儿；在午餐的时候去做它。没有办健身会员？那么就在家里或者办公室锻炼。浑身没劲？那就在你精力充沛时再做。你是很聪明的，一定能想出办法。

4.查看自己的目标。这个就是你的动机--你做某事的理由。当然，你可以什么不做只是躺在沙发上，但是如果你想到了你为了什么真的想去追求你的目标，你就会有了动力。让目标具体化，马上开始行动吧。

5.负责。找个健身的同伴，一个项目合伙人，一个团队，总之一个能向他报到的人。因为如果你不得不去见教练或者同伴的话，你就会更有可能去做这些事情。

6.找理由努力向前。无论如何都要去做。

7.看到这个，那就行动吧
