#2 LIVE - HELP I’ve lost my motivation

Episode 2. LIVE: HELP I’ve lost my motivation

Don’t panic, it happens to us all.

I clearly remember writing my second book, “Let’s Do This”, which is all about the science of motivation and thinking - I need some bloody motivation to finish this book, if only there was a book I could read” haha!

It's true. We all lose our mojo at times, so I want you to know, it’s not your fault.

So don’t worry if you have lost some momentum. The key is to start back nice and easy and work your way up.

BJ Fogg, not to be confused with Phileas, founder of the Stanford behaviour design lab, suggests you, “Take your aspirations and break them down into tiny behaviours”

So you start really small.

This is the opposite of what most people do, this is why I like the way Fogg’s mind works.

Rather than going all in.

Start so small that no matter what your level of motivation you simply have to do it.

If you want to find your motivation to go jogging again.

Put your gym kit on, open the door, breathe in the fresh air then sit back down again.

That’s it.

The next day at the same time, put your kit on and walk outside then come back in again.

The following day walk to the top of the street then increase it daily by another street.

After a week you are still in the ridiculously easy territory that with almost no motivation you can keep showing up.

However something powerful has changed.

You are forming a habit.

The distance is irrelevant. What’s important is that at the same time each day your brain and body are getting ready to move.

The fact that you started tiny, allowed you to start showing up.

The showing up is more important than the distance.

All of a sudden a habit is forming, which requires little motivation as now its running on autopilot.

Sounds too simple, but we are simple creatures, so try it.
