You Have No Excuse Not To Do This

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/06/30

It’s not a lack of information that’s holding you back. It’s not your schedule, or your inbox, or the algorithm. More often than not, it’s just you, caught in the endless loop of waiting for the perfect plan instead of showing up consistently. In this episode, I unpack why doing something small every day matters way more than going big once in a while.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you’ll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings

2025/06/26

We all do it. That task you’ve been avoiding? Still there. That thing you told yourself you’d start tomorrow? Welcome to tomorrow.

2025/06/19

Have you ever wanted to just start over, to hit control, alt, delete on your life and start from scratch? A few years ago, my wife Mel and I asked ourselves a terrifying question: What if we let it all go and started over?

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/06/16

Your twenties are supposed to be “the best years of your life,” right? But no one tells you how confusing, overwhelming, and straight-up weird they can be.

2025/06/09

We’ve all met that person, the one who’s two green smoothies deep into the new year and already telling everyone how their “new routine” is going to change their life. But the problem is that talking about your goals can feel almost as good as achieving them. And that’s exactly the trap.

Have you ever sat down to get something done and felt like your brain forgot to show up to the meeting? Like there’s a thick haze between you and your thoughts, sluggish, scattered, stuck in neutral?
