Summary

Ok, you’ve got a million things to do today, and you’re not going to rest until you get it all done. So you work and you grind and you keep checking off your list until…you just hit a wall. You’re out of energy, you’re out of motivation, your list is still a mile long and – wait – what? It’s only 11am? We’ve all had days like this, and when they happen, we either a) just give up or b) try to “push on through” to get it all done, at which point we… just give up. Well today’s message is a must-listen, because I’ve got a totally counter-intuitive mind hack that’s going to help you squeeze much more productivity out of a less-than-motivated day. You’ll be shocked to learn what it is. Hint: You may even get to knock off with a cocktail at 4pm.

0:43.2	And I was lifting this weight and I got to number, I think it was number four and it was
0:49.2	so heavy that I was about to drop it.
0:51.6	He could literally see me about to drop the weight.
0:55.2	And then here's what he said.
0:56.7	All right, get to eight.
0:59.0	And all of a sudden my brain did something really interesting.
1:03.6	Instead of saying put the weight down, my brain said, oh, we have to get to eight.
