How can I get motivated when my mental energy feels like … mush? Life insists we do things like: • Get out of bed. • Study for exams. • Show up for work. • Think about exercise. • Make sales calls. The list goes on and on. There are so many mind-numbing things we know we should do, but our minds and bodies say, "No!" So what do we really need? How about strategies we can actually use? Instead of feeling defeated and sluggish, we can take iron-fisted control of our minds and get motivated in less than 60 seconds. We can struggle, feel guilty, and fight motivation fatigue for the rest of our lives, or we can learn how to be smarter than our unmotivated brains. Life is short. Let's feel motivated to do what we have to do. No need to suffer. Let our minds work for us, instead of against us.
