Now where did I put that damn motivation to get my ass to the gym for a workout?
That stuff is always getting lost, I swear …
The truth is, motivation comes and goes.
Some days, it’s pretty easy to find; some days, not so much.
For those times it seems impossible, here are a few ideas:
- Remember your “why.” Why are you really doing this? What is the big reason? Why is it important? Focus on your goal(s).
- Find an accountability partner. Ask a friend or someone you know from the gym if they’re interested in having a workout partner. Having someone else counting on you to show up can help keep you on track.
- Improve your daily nutrition. Maintaining good eating habits can energize you, physically and mentally.
So there you go — short and sweet.
Motivation is not always going to automatically be there.
It’s a learned behavior.
You can do it!
