39. How To Get ANYTHING And EVERYTHING Done: Why Motivation Is Not The Answer


Listen Later

On today’s show, I give you tips on how to get ANYTHING and EVERYTHING done! The clue is in the title, that motivation alone is not going to be enough. I discuss what motivation is, and what it is not. 

Here are my five tips to getting anything and everything done: 

  1. Not hesitating to get out of bed when your alarm goes off.
  2. Not allowing your mind to distract you. 
  3. Using my 15-Minute Rule to form new habits through new actions.  
  4. The language you use in your to-do lists. 
  5. Mel Robbins’ 5 Second Rule.
