50. Don't wait for motivation: A better way to achieve more

 

Many of us get to mid-year and run into a slump. We haven’t achieved the goals we laid out for ourselves nearly as fast or as diligently as we imagined we would when motivation was high in January. What relationship do we have to have with ourselves, with motivation and productivity expectations, or with the fear, inertia and resistance that naturally comes up when we are moving towards something new or something more?

Instead of berating ourselves, throwing in the towel or barrelling down a fruitless path, can we pause and consider a different approach? A more realistic, calm, steady approach that works with who we are, not against it? Today I explore a different way of addressing that proverbial mid-year slump to find renewed momentum towards our goals.

Topics discussed

  • The myth of consistency and how it blocks our progress
  • How knowing I’m a Manifestor archetype in Human Design and have an open sacral centre has helped me to design and execute my goals in my own way using execution sprints - leading to way more completion than when I was trying to be “consistent”
  • How inertia and hesitation to act is sometimes fear of failure and taking risks
  • What we essentially need to believe about our ability to survive, and the value of the journey vs the destination in order to stare risk in the face and take it on 
  • What my Human Design value creation archetype (i.e., my profile lines) taught me about how I’m designed to overcome risk, and the mental blocks that can get me stuck and losing momentum

Join Momentum my mid-year leadership workshop on 29th July 2025 where we are diving back into the vision and goals we set for 2025 and infusing them with new energy, overcoming any inertia or mental blocks that have made our goals feel out of reach, and picking that right next action that will bring us back into making our dreams a reality. If this empowering recalibration feels like what you need, I can’t wait to see you.
