Your problem isn't finishing things, your problem is that you haven't learned to create enough momentum that will carry you through and complete whatever you’d like to get done.

Today I'm going to teach you three simple techniques that you can use to create more momentum in your business and life.

Unless you create more momentum many of your goals, perhaps even most, will go unachieved. 

Number one: Get into the habit of creating momentum by simply “choosing to start for just five minutes.” Choosing brings a sense of control, since you can choose to do anything regardless of whether you would like doing it. Focusing on the start is less overwhelming than focusing on the finish. And my committing to only 5 minutes you virtually always have the time (and you end up never realizing when the 5 minutes was up!)

Number two: Go public. I want you to IPO your ideas, IPO your intent, go public with whatever it is that you're going to do. Because when you create that peer pressure and let the world know what it is that you want to achieve you’re compelled to act.

Number three: Make it painful. We move towards pleasure in life, and we move away from pain. Putting money on the line, in some form, against your goal completion hacks into our natural instinct to avoid loss, which according to behavioral scientists from Yale University can significantly increase the odds of goal achievement.
