Do you struggle with the heavy, dragging sense of "what's the point?" that stalls your goals? This isn't laziness—it's demotivation, a fundamental barrier to achievement that affects everyone from students to CEOs.
Host John Sampson dismantles the myth of laziness and provides a powerful framework for understanding and igniting your inner drive.
In this episode, you will learn:

- The Science of Drive: Understand the difference between fragile Extrinsic Motivation (rewards/punishments) and powerful Intrinsic Motivation (acting for joy and values). We dive into how to shift your focus from external rewards to internal purpose.
- 5 Practical Strategies to Beat Demotivation: Get an actionable, step-by-step plan you can use today, including:
- Value Alignment: Connecting tasks to what you truly care about.
- Micro-Action: Using tiny steps to overcome initial resistance.
- Reframing: Applying Stoic principles to challenge limiting beliefs.
- Growth Mindset: Transforming "I can't do this" into "I can't do this... yet."
Motivation is not a secret gift, but a skill built on courage, values, and choice. Stop waiting to feel motivated, and start using these tools to create it.
