A little bit of motivation goes a long way

Leave a Comment

I don’t know about you, but I sometimes need a little push to get moving. Whether it’s finding the energy to start my day or getting in gear to finish a project, a dose of motivation can go a long way. And luckily, there are plenty of ways to find that motivation when you need it.

Your motivation can be compared to a muscle. And, just as with physical muscles, you have to work on building it up in order for your efforts not to go to waste. Here are just a few ideas to build your motivation muscles: 

  • If you’re a member… popping in to our Facebook group for ongoing motivation and for building relationships with people who have similar goals.
  • Joining a workout program that has built in support and accountability. Eh-hem. 😉
  • Listening to Inspiring Podcasts. A few of my faves are Tim Ferris, Maria Forleo, and Rachel Hollis.
  • Creating a playlist that fires you up
  • Reading personal growth books (at LEAST one per month) 🙂 
  • Watch Ted Talks, watch documentaries, and read about inspiring people.

But if you find yourself willpower depleted and feeling like giving up on your goals, don’t worry! It’s easier than ever to stay motivated. Just set aside some time every day for self-improvement—even just five minutes in the morning or before bed will make a huge difference over long periods of days.

Another thing that works: finding an accountability partner, or a coach, who gets what goals we’re working toward while also being able to relate with them because they’ve been there too. 

They “get” our struggle more personally which helps keep things lighthearted but still serious enough so as not feel alone anymore when reaching those moments where stress starts creeping in.

You can bet that coaches won’t hold back when it comes to helping you achieve your goals. We take a personalized, one-on-one approach to help you get the most out of what you’re working on while providing support along the way.

I hope this post provides some inspiration and motivation for you today! Whatever you’re working on, keep pushing forward and you’ll get there eventually. 🙂

So how can you stay motivated? 

First, it’s important to remember that motivation is like a muscle – it needs to be exercised in order to stay strong. 

Second, make sure you have regular doses of inspiration by signing up for my newsletter or following me on social media. 

Finally, find ways to celebrate your successes along the way! 

By following these tips, you should be well on your way to maintaining your motivation and achieving even more in the future.

One simple change that will help you feel better right away

Looking to feel better and improve your overall health? Making one simple change can help you start feeling better right away – by getting more movement into your daily routine. 

Whether you want to boost your energy levels, improve your mood, or simply learn to love moving your body, there are many benefits to be gained from incorporating regular physical activity into your life. 

Here’s just a short list of how movement – and this includes walking, dancing, gardening, etc. – has huge payoffs for you:

  • It can help lower your blood pressure and cholesterol.
  • It can help support brain health. (One study even showed middle-aged women who were considered “highly fit” had a lower risk of developing dementia at an early age.)
  • It boosts your mood by creating more brain chemicals associated with happiness.
  • It helps you handle stress better.
  • It can help improve your focus and attention span.
  • It can help your body battle inflammation.
  • It also helps power your body’s lymphatic system, which is like your own personal army against infection. Because there is no natural “pump” to help your lymphatic system drain toxins from your system, the movement of your muscles is actually responsible for helping to move this important fluid!

In addition to movement, regular exercise is one of the best ways to improve both your physical and mental health. When you exercise on a regular basis, you can boost your energy levels, improve your mood, and even think better. 

Additionally, there are many other benefits to be gained from incorporating exercise into your daily routine – including stronger muscles and bones, lowered risk of chronic diseases, improved sleep quality, and more. 

Perhaps one of the most significant benefits of regular exercise is its positive impact on our mood and overall well-being. By getting active, we can experience a boost in feel-good hormones like serotonin and dopamine, which have been shown to improve our mental health and help us cope with stress more effectively. 

Additionally, some studies have even found that regular exercise can help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, making it a powerful tool for improving emotional well-being. 

So if you’re looking for an easy way to start feeling better today, try fitting more physical activity into your daily routine – you won’t regret it! Here are some tips:

  1. Find an activity or exercise that you enjoy and make it a priority to do it on a regular basis.
  2. Set realistic goals for yourself so that you don’t get discouraged and give up.
  3. Make a commitment to yourself to stick with it, even on days when you don’t feel like it.
  4. Find a workout buddy or group to help keep you motivated and accountable.
  5. Mix things up so that you don’t get bored – try new activities, locations, or exercises regularly.
  6. Remember that even small amounts of exercise can make a big difference in your mood and overall health!

If you’re not already getting regular exercise, adding even a small amount of physical activity to your daily routine can have a big impact on your health and well-being. Just by making one simple change – incorporating more movement into your day – you can start feeling better right away. And the best part is, it doesn’t have to be difficult or time-consuming – even 10 minutes of walking each day can make a difference.
