We often assume that if we're not taking action, the problem must be motivation.

But what if there's more to it than that?

In this Quick Spoon, Ross reflects on a practical framework shared by organisational psychologist Dr Joe Gray, based on the work of Professor Sharon Parker.

Before judging ourselves for not following through, Joe suggests asking three simple questions:

• Do I have a reason to do it?
• Do I have the energy to do it?

Together, they offer a more compassionate and practical way of understanding what's getting in the way.

• Do I have a reason to do it?
• Do I have the energy to do it?

Which answer reveals the real barrier?
