What if you could tap into momentum as an energy source to shift your state and start moving—without relying on motivation?
In this episode, I break down two simple but powerful productivity hacks—inspired by David Allen’s Getting Things Done methodology—that will help you:
✔ Reduce mental friction and stop thinking the same thoughts on repeat
✔ Get small but nagging tasks off your plate so they stop weighing you down
✔ Use momentum as an energy source to go from stuck to activated
✔ Leverage Newton’s Law of Inertia to shift your internal state and make starting easier
You'll also get a quick activation challenge you can use anytime you feel frozen, stuck in resistance, or needing to change your internal state quickly.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- The Think Things Once principle and why it reduces mental load
- The Two-Minute Rule and how it rewires your brain for momentum
- Viewing momentum as an energy source you can create
- Why resistance is also energy, but working against you—and how to flip it
- How Newton’s Law of Inertia applies to motivation and getting unstuck
- The Five Two-Minute Challenge—a fast way to shift your energy and prime your brain for action
