motivation & discipline without self-destruction: ur not lazy, ur just human

from Two Degrees Hotter · host Anya Losik & Kylie Chisholm

this week we’re unpacking motivation! what gets us to start, what actually keeps us going, and why “i’m just lazy” is usually not the right diagnosis. we break down external motivators (money, praise, deadlines, aesthetic outcomes bc yes, we’re human) versus internal ones (curiosity, identity, mastery, emotional regulation). we also talk discipline, when it’s supportive and when it turns into self-punishment. because discipline should support your life, not override it!!! anya's favorites: homewrecker by sombr, winter olympics kylie's favorites: the brass armadillo haha, the white lotus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donate to kylie's nyc marathon fundraising here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠make sure to subscribe so you never miss an episode, and follow us on instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@twodegreeshotter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠! if you have any suggestions for topics you want to hear us cover, send them using this link: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/2WAjznf⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
