Want to work smarter, faster and better? If so listen in as @glamgirlbikini coaches @chrisnicole_ifbb and @amyehinger relate Prep Life to the book Smarter Faster Better by Charles Duhigg

Part 1 takeaways:

1. You can’t rely on someone else to tell you what to do or to motivate you.

 

2. When people believe they are in control, they tend to work harder & push themselves more.

 

3. One way to prove to ourselves that we are in control is by making decisions.

 

4. Motivation is a skill that can be developed & cultivated.

 

5. In order to motivate yourself, you need to feel as if you are in control of your own life & your own actions.

 

6. If you can link something hard to a choice you care about, it makes the task easier.

 

7. Make a chore into a meaningful decision & self-motivation will emerge.

 

8. It doesn’t matter who is on the team, what matters is how the team works together.

 

9. It’s important that team members feel safe to express their opinions & that everyone understands their own individual role.

 

10. If you give people an opportunity to feel a sense of control and let them practice making choices, they can learn to exert willpower. Once people know how to make self-directed choices into a habit, motivation becomes more automatic.

 

11. Automation can be a hinderance to our ability to focus.

 

12. Self-motivation is a choice we make because it is part of something bigger and more emotionally rewarding than the immediate task that needs doing
