Manage episode 491964200 series 3633997
🎧 Episode Summary:
In this solo episode, Tracie peels back the curtain on one of the biggest myths holding people back — motivation. Spoiler alert: motivation isn’t something you wait for — it’s something you create. Listen in as Tracie shares how taking imperfect, bold action fuels momentum, which in turn, builds motivation. If you’ve ever caught yourself saying, “I should really…” — this episode is your wake-up call.
✨ What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why waiting for motivation is a trap (and what to do instead)
- The sneaky damage of the word should in your self-talk
- How momentum, not magic, builds motivation
- A simple formula to shift from stuck to in-action
- The truth behind “Consistency beats intensity”
🛠️ Actionable Tips from Tracie:
- Ditch the word should — replace it with intentional action
- Decide what you’re going to do, when, and tell someone about it
- Start small — any action counts and builds momentum
- Lean on consistency — even imperfect action fuels motivation
- Write down your next action and share it with a trusted person
