Why Am I Unmotivated?

Why Am I Unmotivated?

You can't take a vacation from fibromyalgia, which also means you can't take a vacation from doing all of the things necessary to manage your fibromyalgia. Healing is a full time job, and it takes a lot of work to keep feeling our best! Sometimes we hate making choices that feel like eating broccoli when we are really craving ice cream, and we give in, even when that lack of discipline leads to more pain, fog and fatigue. What can you do when your inner child wants to stomp her foot and say, "No! I don't want to!"?

Key Points

  • Why can't I do what I know I need to do? Do I just need more willpower?
  • Why forcing yourself to do something never works in the long run.
  • How creating simple habits can help you develop automatic muscle memory - and how to determine which simple habits are right for you.
  • The one BIG THING many coaches are missing when it comes to motivation.
  • Being unmotivated is totally okay and totally normal. Sometimes the answer isn't white-knuckling action - it's rest.
