You don’t need motivation, but this helps…

Here’s a little truth: you probably don’t need more motivation.

You need more clarity.

Motivation comes and goes.

But clarity? That sticks.

Knowing exactly why you’re doing this and what the next step is – that’s the secret. I’ll give you an example. I’ve been going to physical therapy because shoulder pain was holding me back.

I could have just stopped doing certain moves (forever) like push-ups, shoulder presses, carrying and lifting heavy things, because I didn’t feel like spending the extra time doing physical therapy, BUT I knew these limitations would alter the quality of my life, so I go, even when I don’t feel like it. I do the shoulder exercises in addition to my regular lifting, even when I don’t feel like it.

Now, it’s paying off. I have much less pain and I am back to doing some of those exercises in my regular routine AND…..here’s where it really matters: I was able to help my husband move some furniture up the stairs last weekend and felt very capable, confident and did not injury myself doing it.

That is one of my big WHYs…to be able to lift, carry and move heavy things when I need to so I don’t have to rely on someone else.

Take a moment to ask yourself the following questions:

What is my “why”?

“What’s driving me to get stronger ,healthier, more energized? “

“What’s one action I can take today that moves me closer to that vision?”

When your goals are clear and your plan is simple, you stop waiting for motivation.

You just act.

Let’s keep things simple, focused, and powerful.

You’ve got this!
