Hey,

ding-ding-ding-dong,

Bue-B-B-D-B-O-L-L-L-I-G-I-G-I-Say-I-Say-I-S,

Hey guys and welcome back to the Clutterbug Podcast.

Today, actually, we're going to talk about motivation again,

but this time we're talking about three strategies to get you started.

So thanks so much for joining the Clutterbug podcast. I super appreciate you taking the time to listen. So today we're talking about motivation. A lot of people struggle with motivation. We struggle to get started, especially doing those things that we know we have to do, but we totally don't want to do.

And I struggle with lots of different areas with motivation, but I'm getting better. I used to not want to do anything at all. I was a total super slob and a definite sloth. I would rather lay around and watch television than do anything else.

So how did I change?

How did I get motivated to do those really horrible tasks that no one actually wants to do.

And I'm not only going to talk about strategies that work for me,

but strategies that work for the majority of people.

And so I picked the three most popular.

First, let's talk about the time of day.

This is a really popular strategy

because it works.

We all are so different. Some of us are morning people,

some of us are night owls, some of us get that burst of energy in the afternoon,

so knowing yourself and the time of day where you just seem to be more energized

and do those little things that you wouldn't normally want to do, that is when you should schedule or even think about attempting the projects

that you've been putting off. So if you're not a morning person, don't tell yourself that you're going to go for a run every morning at 6 a.m.

You're just constantly breaking promises to yourself because it just goes against your personality.
