    How to get motivated

    How to get motivated

    This podcast episode is all about motivation.  Often I hear my clients and friends say, "I know what to do, but I just can't get motivated." 

    And that statement, or thought, is where your problem is. Motivation is not some illusive, sexy gift that angels bestow from the sky. It is created. From you. But you need to get motivated in a way that is aligned to your values. 

    In this podcast you will learn the 4 rules to create lasting motivation.
