Have you ever thought that despite knowing all the things, why is it that you don't actually do all the things? Why does knowing not necessarily translate into doing? If you've had that experience, you are not alone, but it sure can be frustrating. 

But don't be, because on today's episode, I'm going to discuss the barriers to taking action. and provide you with six actionable steps on how to overcome these all-too-common barriers, including resistance, procrastination, and lack of motivation. 

I'm resharing this episode because it was so, so impactful for so many of you, and one of the most downloaded episodes since last summer. If you've already heard it, I encourage you to listen again. 

We learn to incorporate knowledge with repetition, and this might just be the thing you need to hear to translate all that knowing into doing. 

This week, I’m tackling another major barrier that people often face on their journey to healthy change: finding and maintaining motivation. No one will feel motivated 100% of the time, but there are some things you can do to help find and maintain your motivation to do difficult things.

Highlights:

• The false assumption is that being motivated means you’ll be inherently driven every single day.
• Why it’s important to manage your expectations about motivation.
• Identifying your “Why” and drawing motivation from it.
• How you can maintain motivation through reminders.
• Ways to maintain motivation by building awareness and presence through writing.
• How creating a routine can help build motivation.
• Aligning with the feeling of achievement and success to maintain and build motivation.
