Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, folks, welcome back to discipline over everything daily
mind hacks. Your boy Asher Blake here ready to unlock
your brain's hidden potential and help you crush it every
single day. Now, let's talk about something we all struggle with,
whether we admit it or not, staying motivated when the
couch is calling your name louder than your dreams. We've

(00:20):
all been there, right, that feeling of staring at that
to do list like it's written in ancient hieroglyphics, knowing
you should be crushing it, but just not feeling it.
But listen up, because today we're not just talking about
surviving those motivation slumps. We're talking about thriving through them.
We're going to dive into five killer strategies that'll have
you saying, bring on the challenge even when your energy

(00:43):
levels are at rock bottom. First things First, understand this
motivation isn't a magical fairy godmother who magically sprinkles you
with willpower. It's a muscle, and like any muscle, it
needs to be trained. So start small. Forget about trying
to conquer Everest on day one. Break down those big
goals into bite sized chunks that feel manageable. You know

(01:06):
what I mean. Instead of write a novel, think write
five hundred words today. Suddenly that daunting task seems way
more approachable. Right. Second, up, find your why why are
you doing this in the first place? Dig deep and
connect with the core reasons behind your goals. Is it
personal growth, leaving a legacy, wanting to finally wear those

(01:27):
skinny jenes again. Whatever it is, write it down, visualize it,
make it real. When you're feeling sluggish, remind yourself of
that powerful why. It's like your internal turbo boost. Third,
celebrate the wins, and I mean every single win. Don't
wait for the finish line to throw a party. Acknowledge
those small victories along the way. Did you actually get

(01:49):
out of bed and do something productive? High five yourself.
Did you stick to your workout routine even though your
body screamed at you to stay in bed. You are
a warrior. Celebrate those wins, big or small, because they
fuel your motivation engine. Now let's talk about the power
of environment. Ever, notice how easily you can get sucked
into a spiral of Netflix and doom scrolling. That's because

(02:12):
your environment is constantly influencing your actions. So make it
work for you. Create a dedicated workspace that screams productivity.
Tidy up, bring in some plants, put on some upbeat music,
Surround yourself with things that inspire and motivate you. And lastly,
remember to be kind to yourself. We're all human and
we have off days. Don't beat yourself up if you

(02:35):
miss a workout or procrastinate on a project. Just pick
yourself up, dust yourself off, and get back in the game.
There's no shame in taking a break when you need it,
but don't let those little setbacks derail your entire journey.
Think about that time you were working towards something really important,
maybe a big presentation at work or training for a marathon.

(02:55):
You probably faced moments where you just wanted to quit right.
Maybe your legs felt like lead during that last mile
of your run, or your brain felt like mush the
night before the big speech. But what did you do.
You pushed through. You dug deep and found that extra
ounds of will power because you knew how important it
was to succeed. That's exactly what we need to remember

(03:16):
when motivation is low. Just like in those tough moments,
we have that inner strength within us to keep going.
It might take a little effort to tap into it,
but trust me, it's there. So here's the recap. Think
of motivation as a muscle train it. Break down big
goals into smaller steps and celebrate those winds along the way.

(03:37):
Find your why, connect with your deeper purpose, and remind
yourself why you started this journey in the first place.
It'll be your guiding light when things get tough. Create
an environment that supports your goals. Get rid of distractions,
surround yourself with inspiration and make your space a productivity powerhouse.
And most importantly, be kind to yourself. You're human, You're

(03:59):
going to have Don't let those setbacks define you. Just
pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and keep going. Now,
