Manage episode 489224102 series 3651674
In today’s episode, we’re talking about those moments when you feel completely blocked and unmotivated. Trust me - I’ve been there recently, feeling like there’s a giant Lego brick on my chest and no matter what I do, I can’t seem to get past it. But here’s the truth: you’re not alone.
Motivation can be elusive, and we all have days when we don’t feel like ourselves. But that doesn’t mean you’re failing. It just means you’re human.
In this episode, I’ll walk you through:
- Why it’s normal to feel blocked and how to embrace it
- The importance of taking small steps when motivation is low
- How mindset shifts like “What would I do if I wasn’t worried about being perfect?” can help you get out of your head and into action
- Why sometimes, the best thing you can do is give yourself permission to rest and recharge
Key Takeaways:
- Feeling blocked doesn’t mean you’re failing - it’s a normal part of life.
- Start small -take just one tiny action to build momentum, even when motivation is low.
- Mindset shift: Focus on how you want to feel, rather than worrying about what you “should” do.
- Celebrate small wins - even if they feel insignificant. They add up!
- Rest is key - you don’t have to do it all, and sometimes, taking a break is exactly what you need.
