Have you ever found yourself wondering, “Why can’t I motivate myself?” I know I have.
Motivation can be a tricky thing to pin down, especially when there are so many other distractions around us, like social media or Netflix. But the truth is, motivation is crucial for achieving our goals and living a fulfilling life.
“Getting motivated is like trying to get out of bed on a Monday morning – you know you need to do it, but it’s just so damn hard! It’s like trying to drag a cat out of a warm and cozy blanket fort. But with a little bit of effort and the right tools, you can kick that cat out of bed and start your day with a bang! So grab your coffee, and let’s get motivated!”
Before we dive in lets look at what is a lack of motivation? It’s when you can’t seem to find a reason to do anything, whether that be getting out of bed, going for a walk, or meeting up with friends. It’s like you’re stuck in a rut, and nothing can get you excited or energized.
One of the main reasons why we struggle with motivation is that we rely too heavily on our willpower. We try to force ourselves to do things, but then we get tired, and our willpower fades away. That’s when we start procrastinating or giving in to temptations that we know aren’t good for us.
So, how can we regain our motivation and start living the life we want? One way is to create a vision board. This can be a fun and creative way to visualize your goals and dreams. You can use pictures, words, and colors to represent what you want to achieve, and then hang it up where you can see it every day.
Another option is to work with a personal coach. A coach can help you discover your true passions and talents, and then create a plan to stay motivated and on track. They can also clear any negative beliefs or emotional blocks that might be holding you back.
And let’s not forget about meditation and yoga. These practices can help balance your mind and soul, and give you clarity and focus. By getting in touch with your inner self, you can discover what truly drives you and find the motivation to pursue your goals.
Personally, I have seen the best results for increasing motivation through life coaching. By working together, we can get to the root of any blockages and release them so that you have motivation throughout your life.
So, why can’t you motivate yourself? It may be time to try a new approach and invest in your own personal growth. With the right mindset and tools, you can achieve anything you set your mind to.
Here is my favourite technique to supercharge my motivation on demand
1. Start by thinking of a time when you felt extremely motivated and accomplished. It could be a time when you aced a presentation, completed a tough project, or achieved a personal goal.
