How To Stay Motivated

Work Life Balance

There is no secret process to staying motivated. Often times, people think I must have a super power to do all that I do. Or some supreme innate source of infinite motivation deep within. And nothing could be further from the truth.

Instead, I rely heavily on habits and routines. There are so many days when I’m not motivated to exercise. Or to finish a project that I’m working on. But that’s when I discover that creating habits really is a super power.

I’m a firm believer that:

•Habits precede motivation. Setting routines and developing habits, help keep you motivated, so you aren’t dependent on the “feeling motivated” to exercise or complete tasks

•Setting implementation intentions helps to create a plan that encourages follow through

•An atomic or key habit can change your entire routine

Take a listen.
