It's time to stop searching for motivation and start building it instead.
Willpower alone doesn’t work. One day you're fired up and ready to crush it, the next you're staring blankly at the wall wondering where your motivation went.
In this psychology and self-improvement-focused episode, learn the scientifically proven tactics to construct motivation that sticks long-term - even through the toughest challenges. Discover the 4 key types of motivation, how to tap into them, and the warning signs that your motivation is unsustainable.
Learn why sheer willpower backfires, how small wins compound, and how to reframe mundane tasks into extraordinary achievements. Balancing intrinsic and extrinsic motivations fuels success when we can also tap into our values.
This episode will boost grit, and encourage a growth mindset using actionable insights from psychology and motivation science. Your passport to sustainable drive and motivation starts here
