“How do you get yourself to workout when you don’t feel like it??”
I know this answer might sound super annoying but I JUST DO IT.
I used to look at people that I admired that were super consistent with their eating & training habits, and I thought to myself “they just have more motivation than I do.” And that actually might have been true.
BUT what I got wrong was never understanding how motivated is created. It’s the byproduct of taking ACTION. We tend to think we have to be motivated to do the thing. But really, we have to do the thing to then become more motivated. I know, a total mind F!!! 🤯
Adapting the DO IT ANYWAYS mentality forces you to be the person who follows through on your commitments regardless of how you’re feeling in the moment.
That second clip of me out my run - ya, it took me half the run to actually get into it. I was not motivated. I was not excited. And it didn’t get any easier 10 minutes in. But I followed through and I did it anyways.
And I’m telling you right now, that post feeling from doing it anyways is a HARD feel-good-feeling to beat 😮💨👊🏻
