Mentally Stronger with Therapist Amy Morin

154 — Strategies for Unstoppable Motivation


Listen Later

Do you need motivation but aren't sure how to get it? Fortunately, some science-backed strategies can help you build and maintain motivation over time (yet no one tells us how to do it). Whether you just want to get your house organized or you want to complete a triathlon, this episode will give you the skills you need to get (and stay) motivated.

Some of the things I share are:

  • The biggest myths about motivation (and what the science actually says)
  • How to get motivated when you just don't feel like doing something
  • The things that motivate us and why you need to understand the factors that motivate you
  • The type of goal that will enhance your motivation
  • The strategies that will bolster your motivation and help you stay consistent over time
