In this episode, we’re tackling a powerful truth that can reshape how you and your children approach learning, chores, and personal goals: action creates motivation.
Whether it’s starting a math lesson, folding laundry, or sitting down to write, waiting for motivation can lead to wasted time and missed opportunities.
The simple act of starting (even if you don't finish in your first attempt) activates your brain’s natural reminder system. This psychological principle, known as the Zeigarnik Effect, explains why unfinished tasks linger in our minds and often drive us back to complete them.
As well, I have some real-life examples you’ll relate to as a homeschool mom, along with simple strategies to help your family overcome procrastination and build momentum.
Don’t wait for the “right mood” to tune in and discover why taking the first step is the real secret to staying motivated. Press play! Let's go.
