Limitless – The Power Of Clear Thinking…
If you haven’t already seen this movie then you really do need to!
Movie Overview…
It’s a film about a struggling writer who is broke and depressed who takes a drug called NZT 49 which enables anyone to use 100% of their brain and become limitless!
IM Connection…
I have watched the film about 10 times so far since it’s release and it’s now on my “motivation playlist”.
But the connection here isn’t to start taking drugs and thinking they will make you into those amazing do anything kinda person but instead to use what you already have…. use your brain to it’s fullest extent!
The main thing this drug does is let you see everything clearly, know exactly what you need to do and how to do it and then you just get on and do it!
Now of course this drug doesn’t exist (unfortunately) and if it does i want it!
BUT what we do have is the power of focus, so start….
- Writing to-do lists so you know what you need to get done!
- Learning about things that are going to help you there and then and not buy into every new shiny product that comes out promising you millions but just leading you off onto something else!
- And finally sit down and actually get things done!
Now the to-do list part of things is easy once you have something to do, so go grab that latest ebook if you don’t have a method and cut it down into steps and start from the beginning and work on it until the end.
If you get stuck then go and research on exactly what your stuck on, the people who make money are the people who actually sit down and do something… anything that could make them something! Your more likely to make money if you do something than if you just sit there procrastinating and thinking about doing it all day! Plus it doesn’t matter if it isn’t perfect or if there is a better/easier way to do something.. if the method makes money for you then you can tweak it later on!
This final part about actually getting things done can be difficult… personally i use the “action machine” program which you can do your to-do list on and makes you work 10x faster and harder and get things done if you use it! You can check it out here… Click Here!
Overview…
With that being said i do highly suggest you watch the movie. Every time i watch it i feel really motivated and have had numerous sleepless nights after watching it (which i suppose is both good and bad)!
Once you have watched it then leave your thoughts below and if you have any motivational tips/tricks that you use then share those too 
Without doubt some films can really ‘fire’ you up and leave you totally motivated. From experience a lot of people just don’t know how to harness that motivation in the right way, and lose focus very quickly on the task at hand. To help keep me focussed and on track I’ve also used the Pomodoro Technique, and some mild classical music in the background really does work wonders.
Great Post Lewis!
A great tip :Work on your least favorite task first. Once that is completed you will be motivated to do more because that “can’t bother” feeling will be gone.
Everything you say is so true, we need to get off our asses and just do it! Well, we need to sit down in front of our computers to do it but you what what I mean. LOL
Weed is not the generic drug name for NZT 49..hehe
Haven’t seen the movie yet but its on my to do list
Thanks for the great review.
I watched this movie last weekend and agree with you that it is very inspiring. I also found that I had a few sleepless nights just thinking of some of the things I could put my mind to.
Since watching the film, I have done a lot of work on my website, which is a good thing. You summed it up when you say the people that make money are the ones that take action.
Thanks for the good read.
All the best
