Episode 2967: Marc Chernoff reminds us that even when we feel beaten down and empty, we carry unseen reserves of support and strength. Through a heartfelt story, he encourages appreciating both our external and internal sources of motivation to keep moving forward, one small step at a time. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.marcandangel.com/2016/03/05/an-open-letter-to-those-who-have-lost-their-motivation/ Quotes to ponder: "During those tough times, it will sometimes appear to us that we’ve lost everything, and that nothing and nobody could possibly motivate us to move onward in the direction of our dreams." "No matter your circumstances, you always have what you need to take the next smallest step." "Be mindful. Be present. Keep going. One small step at a time."
