Have you ever felt unmotivated to do something — even when you do care and think it’s important? Well, you’re not alone. In this episode, I break down the real neuroscience behind motivation, why it fades even when you want to get something done, and what you can do to impact it!
In the episode, I talk about:
1. How brain chemistry and meaning work together for motivation
2. The dopamine system and the role of a cue getting you to move
3. How to understand the prefrontal cortex and the importance of doing hard things
Mind Renewal Tip:
Your thoughts shape your motivation before your actions ever do.
Scripture Renewal Tip:
Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Romans 12:2
