What is going on everybody? Welcome back to the Mind of a Macros podcast. As always, I'm

your host Mike Milner and today, this is the part where I insert something that's like really enticing and appealing to get

you to keep listening, but the reality is, you should just always listen because you know

that there's going to be something valuable within each episode.

I actually do have something important to share and it's related to the fact that

personally lately I have been not at all motivated, zero motivation and I'm not just talking about like,

I don't feel like going to the gym.

Yes, that's part of it.

But quite literally, I don't feel like going to the gym.

I don't feel like eating well or paying attention to what I'm eating.

I don't feel like writing about nutrition or talking about nutrition. I don't feel like recording podcasts. I don't feel like writing emails.

Actually two emails five times per week. So I write ten emails per week because I write

one email to coaches and one email to clients and I just haven't felt like it at all.

I haven't wanted to do any of it.

And here I am. I'm still doing it, but I feel like it's not just, oh who cares, just keep going like I feel like we have to understand some of these things and having mental frameworks for getting

through these difficult phases where you just don't feel like I know that you can

relate to the feeling of I just don't feel like it like I don't want to do it I
