Summary

Today we’re talking about building up motivation when you feel a bit mentally drained. Social exhaustion is very real, and sometimes you need something extra to feel zesty. We share personal strategies for regaining momentum when you’re in a rut. Laura champions the benefit of short-term projects, and we discuss the mental health benefits of being well-rounded. We lay out the differences between the science of success (material wins) and the art of satisfaction (individual wins), and how the combination of the two will quiet the mind. How can you be the Godzilla of your own life? How can you satisfy your brain’s contradictory drives for security and novelty? Is growth necessarily uncomfortable? Advice and experience around mental health challenges is the background of this discussion on self-motivation. Grow with us!
