James Laughlin breaks down a three-step method to boost motivation: pick a task you hate, choose a reward you love, and only give yourself the reward after you finish the task. It's about linking something enjoyable to something you're avoiding.
What's that one thing that you don't love doing that much that you don't have a lot of motivation for? Write it down. Okay, then I want you to do these three things. Number one, find something that you love. Secondly, tie that reward with action. You'll get the reward after you finish a task. So whatever it is that you find that you love doing, it needs to be tied, you know, tied in as a reward for the action of the thing you don't enjoy doing. And the third part of this is don't let yourself have the reward before you've completed the task.
