The Action Comes Before The Feeling

Jonny Bevan - The Police Burnout Coach Season 1 Episode 72

Are you waiting to feel like doing the work before you take any action? This is probably why you are feeling stressed and overwhelmed.

Feelings like motivation are lovely but they are not often there when we need them. Often though, when we just start despite not feeling like it the motivation then comes.

This is why it is a better strategy to make a plan to start and commit to starting whether you feel like it or not. Then what will happen is, is as you start seeing progress and realise that it was not as hard as you brain was telling you it was, you will feel motivated.

This is why the action has to come before the feeling.
