⏳ Do You Struggle With Motivation?
win every day...
TELL ME: IS THIS YOU?
You know what needs to be done.
But you just can’t start.
You wait for that spark.
That motivation.
But it never comes.
WHAT IF YOU COULD CREATE MOTIVATION?
BIG NEWS:
Motivation follows action.
Not the other way around.
Don’t wait to feel motivated!
You need to start moving!
THEN motivation will show up :)
2 EASY HACKS TO MANUFACTURE MOTIVATION ON DEMAND
These strategies will shift you from waiting for motivation to creating it at will.
1. THE ACTION FIRST RULE
Forget about waiting to “feel” like doing something. Commit to taking the first step. Even when you’re not motivated.
Whether it’s opening your laptop, putting on your gym shoes, or just sitting down with your work in front of you, the rule is simple: Action comes first, feelings follow.
HOW?
The moment you feel resistance, tell yourself, “I’m not waiting to feel ready. I’m just starting.”
The key: take one small, simple action that is so small it’s ridiculous. Then take the next small action. Something as minor as writing the first sentence, or preparing your workout clothes.
Once you get moving, momentum builds.
And BOOM: motivation follows.
WHY IT WORKS: Our brains are wired for momentum. The hardest part is often starting, but once you’ve begun, your brain starts to engage, and motivation naturally increases. You go from inaction to action, and suddenly, you’re in the flow.
2. TRICK YOUR BRAIN WITH “MOTIVATION ANCHORS”
Find something that naturally excites you or makes you feel good and attach it to a task you want to accomplish. This is your “motivation anchor”. A way to condition your brain to associate positive emotions with something you normally avoid.
HOW? Choose a small reward or enjoyable activity you pair with a task. For example, listen to your favorite music while you work, or have your favorite snack during a mundane task. The brain will begin to link that task with something enjoyable, reducing resistance and making it easier to start.
WHY IT WORKS: This taps into the brain’s dopamine system. When you associate an enjoyable experience with something you typically avoid, you create a new, positive connection to that task. Over time, your brain learns to look forward to it, rather than dread it.
