#137: Motivating Yourself with Compassion - a podcast by Mary Jelkovsky

Want to know how to motivate yourself in a self-loving way? Tune into this episode to learn practical tools for finding and creating motivation through a lens of SELF-LOVE, of course!

You will learn how to...

• 
  

  Why you might be feeling de-motivated

  
  


• 
  

  Use a technique called “10 WHYs” to find intrinsic motivators

  
  


• 
  

  Employ self-discipline (but not in the way that you think…)

  
  

Remember: You don’t need to wait until you’re perfectly motivated to start taking action. Imperfect, messy, reluctant action will often be enough to prove to yourself that you CAN do it, that you DO have it in you which creates a positive feedback loop. Micro steps over everything.
