I can help you take action and get motivated!
I also introduce you to the concept of ‘action comes before motivation’ and how I use this approach in my clinic to treat people suffering from motivation issues.
And finally, I introduce you to COACHD CLINIC and how Rapid Transformational Therapy™(RTT™) and Hypnotherapy can help you take action and get super motivated.
When you are regularly putting off the tasks that you know you should be getting on with, you cause yourself extra stress and anxiety, de-motivate yourself for further tasks, damage your confidence and self-esteem, and are less likely to complete the tasks at all. If you do complete a task that you’ve procrastinated over there's now a greater chance that you won’t perform it as well as if you hadn’t procrastinated beforehand.
A lack of motivation happens for several reasons, including procrastination, a poor sense of purpose, and a lack of confidence that you will be able to complete tasks successfully. The good news is that all the reasons for lacking motivation are treatable. In fact, COACHD therapies can help you create powerful new pathways in your subconscious mind that will move you from a place of no action to a heightened state of motivation, forever.
Action refers to the physical act of doing something. It involves carrying out specific tasks, behaviours, or activities. Actions can be intentional or unintentional, conscious, or unconscious, and they are observable and measurable. For example, if someone goes for a jog, their physical movement constitutes the action of jogging.
Motivation, on the other hand, refers to the internal or external factors that drive or initiate behaviour. Motivation is the reason behind why an individual engages in a particular action or behaviour. Motivation can be seen as the underlying force that encourages and directs behaviour towards specific goals or outcomes. Motivation can be influenced by various factors such as needs, desires, goals, values, incentives, or external pressures. Motivation provides the ‘why’ or the ‘purpose’ behind an action.
The dynamics of motivation can vary from person to person and situation to situation. I’ve found that motivation can arise before, during, or after someone takes action, depending on various factors. For some of my clients, the initial motivation or desire to do something may be the driving force that helps propel them into action. They may feel inspired, compeled or empowered to pursue a goal or task, and this motivation fuels their actions.
However, there are many instances where someone may not initially feel motivated to take action at all. They may be experiencing looping thoughts that create extreme forms of hesitancy and procrastination, a deep lack of confidence, or other obstacles that deter them from moving forward. In this case, working with individuals to take action, even if it's a very small step, can help them build momentum and generate a sense of accomplishment. It is this sense of accomplishment, however small the action, that leads to motivation, as they witness the benefits these small progressions or positive outcomes have on them.
For this reason, I will often treat my clients using the ‘action comes before motivation’ approach to therapy. In this way I see them build a consistent, powerful desire to take action as a way of becoming motivated about something they need to do or achieve, which leads them to take more action and feel more motivated, and so on. When the mind's belief is that taking action in the absence of motivation leads to good feelings, i.e., a sense of accomplishment, it is incredible what a person can achieve in life. For many people, waiting to feel motivated before taking action can be a lifelong battle, and I do mean lifelong.
While there are many instances where action can precede motivation, the relationship between the two is not a simple one. Motivation and action can interact and influence each other in a cyclical manner. Sometimes motivation comes first, propelling action, and in other cases, action can stimulate motivation. The interplay between motivation and action is a dynamic process that can vary depending on the individual and the specific context. I am able to determine the best approach to working with a client with motivation issues during a simple Consultation Call, which I offer FREE to all my first-time customers.
Action as a catalyst for motivation: Taking action, even if it's a small step, can often serve as a catalyst for motivation. By helping someone with motivation issues engage in the activity or task at hand, they can experience a sense of progress, accomplishment, and enjoyment. This can lead to the feelings attached to motivation and encourage them to continue their efforts.
Overcoming the ‘activation energy’: Sometimes, the hardest part is getting started. Many tasks or goals require a certain amount of effort, focus, or discipline to initiate. Once someone overcomes the initial hurdle and begins taking action, their motivation can increase exponentially. Starting the task creates a sense of momentum, making it easier to stay motivated and continue making progress.
The power of positive reinforcement: Taking action and experiencing positive outcomes or rewards can reinforce motivation. When someone sees the positive results of their actions, it can further fuel their motivation to keep going. For example, completing a task successfully, receiving praise or recognition, or achieving a milestone can boost motivation and make someone more likely to persist in their efforts.
Building a habit loop: Consistently taking action can lead to the development of habits. As behaviours become more ingrained, they require less conscious motivation to initiate. This is known as the habit loop, where a cue triggers the action, followed by a routine, and then a reward. Over time, the habit loop can create a self-sustaining cycle of action and motivation. One of the first actions I have a client with motivation issues undertake is to listen to a 20-minute motivation recording that I personally create for them. They listen to the recording during self-hypnosis at least once a day for 21 days. Since the mind learns through repetition, this powerful transformational recording helps the subconscious mind form new beliefs and reinforces new patterns of thought, habit, and behaviour.
External factors and intrinsic motivation: While actions can stimulate motivation, it's important for me to help my clients consider external factors and intrinsic motivation too. External factors, such as deadlines, rewards, or social pressure, can influence motivation levels. On the other hand, intrinsic motivation, which comes from internal factors like personal interest, enjoyment, or a sense of purpose, can play a significant role in sustaining motivation even without immediate external rewards.
If you are someone suffering from motivation issues, I can help you actively engage with your subconscious mind to give you the motivation and drive you need to get things done. To experience a significant change in your life, COACHD Hypnotherapy and hypnosis sessions can help rewire your mind to get you there fast. You will stop sabotaging yourself through procrastination, a lack of confidence, fear of judgment and other beliefs that affect your motivation. And you will no longer feel guilty or stressed because of not achieving your goals now that a lack of motivation is a thing of your past. You will feel the will and desire to take on any task with the confidence that you can accomplish what you set out to achieve, without the fear of failure or judgement.
When you do the things that successful people do, you unknowingly become more and more like them. This is very true when it comes to the habit of action. Committing to tasks every day in service of your dreams makes you feel like a winner, and once you feel like a winner, you begin to act differently. You begin to take on the air of a successful person and believe that you are successful. This can influence how other people treat you, how you treat yourself, and what you attract into your life.
