Motivation

Motivation can be a fickle beast, and we all hate the sugar high like spike and fall we get from motivational talks, gurus, and strategies. 

You probably ask yourself often, how can I maintain a healthy level of motivation that is sustainable and congruent with who I am? 

Are you intrinsically motivated? Or do you struggle to maintain a certain level of discipline?

In this episode, I provide you with my thoughts on what healthy motivation is, how you may find clarity in this topic, and how you can maintain “motivational endurance” in your practice and life. 

I discuss what I am currently doing to get to the root of my motivations instead of just layering on motivation to a faulty thinking process. 

Some of the struggles you may be having around motivation that I breakdown further in the episode are:

  • Perfectionism 

  • Fear of Growth

  • Lack of Clear Goals 

  • Habits 

  • Accountability 

At the end, I ask you to sit down and do a little homework assignment to help you get clear on your next step in overcoming intrinsic motivation struggles.
