How do you get motivated? Do you wait for it to hit, or do you take action, even when it feels like you’re trying to push a boulder up a hill?
What often happens is we slowly talk ourselves out of doing the thing we need to do.
Our inner voice can be so good at making us believe we can’t achieve our goals. We spiral, and eventually, we start to believe we can’t do anything right.
If we convince ourselves we can’t do it before we even start, we save ourselves the embarrassment of trying and then failing, which seems worse than not trying at all.
But our brains don’t always have our best interests at heart. If we always base our actions on fear, we’d never achieve anything.
It’s uncomfortable to deal with, but success always comes with failures. You HAVE to stumble and fail before you see results.
For most of us, motivation rarely comes from waiting around. You have to create motivation by doing the thing you don’t want to do.
Instead, think about slowly building a habit. If you want to work out more, for example, start by working out 15 minutes a few times a week, then keep increasing the time/frequency.
Start small and keep things interesting by changing up your workouts once in a while. And do it even when you’d rather be doing anything else. You got this! 💚😊
If you have trouble getting motivated or sticking to a routine, working with a coach could help! HG coaches have been where you are and can help you understand what’s holding you back and find ways to keep you accountable. Learn more about HG coaching here: bit.ly/42uPeqQ
