Everyone struggles with motivation, from coach potatoes to elite athletes. If you're looking to improve your motivation, here are some top tips.
* '''Be honest'''. Think about what you want, not what you think you should want, or what you think someone else wants. Motivation comes from within.
* '''Count the cost'''. What is it going to take? For instance, I'd love to plan play an instrument, but I'm not prepared to spend the time learning.
* '''Prioritize'''. Good prioritization is about deciding what not to do, not what's most important. If you're going to add time for exercise, where's the time coming from?
* '''Be honest'''. Did you build in time for relaxation, hanging out with friends, watching TV, etc.? Such downtime is not wasted, but an important part of life.
