Why Motivation Feels Fake In January

The Motivated Mind ·

2026/01/05

January 1st is loud. New goals. New habits. New versions of ourselves. But a few days later, the noise fades, and what’s left feels strangely uncomfortable. No big motivation. No clarity. Just a quiet sense that you should be doing more by now. This video is about that feeling, why it shows up after the hype disappears, and why it doesn’t mean you’re behind.Go to tonal.com and use promo code MOTIVATED to get $200 off your Tonal purchase.

Why You Can’t Stop Looking For Answers

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/12/29

You understand the problem. The explanation makes sense. You even feel that brief moment of clarity. And yet, something still doesn’t settle. So you keep searching, not for information, but for relief. This is about that loop, why it’s so hard to stop looking for answers, and what might actually be missing when nothing seems to stick.New here?

The Hidden Habit That’s Draining Your Willpower

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/12/22

Most days, we’re not working nonstop; we’re just never fully stopping, and if we do, we pick up our phones and call it recovery, even though we end the day feeling more depleted than we started. And when our energy disappears, we assume something’s wrong with our discipline. This is the habit that’s quietly draining your willpower, and why real recovery looks very different than what we’ve been taught.New here?

The Problem With Self-Help

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/12/15

Self-help used to be simple: read a book, take a walk, call your mom. Now it feels like you need a 28-step morning routine, a cold plunge, 17 supplements, and a $90 notebook just to feel like a functioning human being. Somewhere along the way, “improving your life” turned into a performance. This video is about that shift and why so much of modern self-help leaves us feeling more overwhelmed than transformed.New here?

Why You Always Feel Behind

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/12/08

We rush through our days like we’re trying to speedrun life, bouncing between half-finished thoughts, half-finished tasks, and half-brushed teeth. And somehow, even on the days when nothing is actually wrong… everything still feels off. This video is about that feeling, and why you always think you’re behind, even when you’re not.New here?

Why Everything Feels Harder Than It Should

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/12/01

We all think an easier life will make us happier. But somewhere along the way, comfort starts working against us. In this video, I explore how “comfort creep” quietly makes life feel harder, why small inconveniences start to break us, and what happens when we finally bring a little friction back into our lives.New here?

The 10-Minute Rule for People Who Hate Discipline

We all have that moment where we swear we’re about to start and then somehow end up lying on the floor in full workout clothes, questioning every life choice.

Your Phone Is Ruining Your Memory

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/11/17

Every time we’re bored, we reach for it. The glowing rectangle. The endless scroll. But what if our phones aren’t just killing our focus, they’re quietly erasing our memory? In this video, I explore how constant distraction rewires the way we think, why our brains are offloading more than we realize, and what happens when we finally start giving our attention a chance to remember again.New here?

Why ‘Finding Yourself’ Might Be the Dumbest Goal You...

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/11/10

We talk about “finding ourselves” like our identity is hiding in a couch cushion somewhere. Like if we just travel enough or go on a silent retreat with an $84 ethically-sourced, emotionally-validated journal, the universe will finally reveal who we are. But what if you’re not lost at all? In this video, I share how the search for your “real self” can actually keep you from living and what happens when you stop trying to find yourself and start paying attention to who you’re becoming.New here?

The Most Overrated Advice You Keep Falling For

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/11/03

The internet is overflowing with advice. Wake up earlier. Work harder. Cut out negativity. Manifest faster. But if all this advice actually worked, why are we still searching for more of it? In this video, I explore why so much “life-changing” advice doesn’t work, how it quietly keeps us stuck, and what happens when you finally stop listening to everyone else and start thinking for yourself.

The Productivity Trap Nobody Talks About

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/10/27

I used to think productivity was the key to freedom. So I optimized everything, my routines, my habits, my workflows. But somewhere between the ice baths, color-coded calendars, and three dashboards tracking my “progress,” I started to wonder… who was I actually doing all this for? In this video, I explore how the pursuit of productivity can quietly become the biggest distraction of all, and what happens when you finally slow down long enough to ask why you’re doing it in the first place.New

Why We Suck At Listening

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/10/20

We all think we’re good listeners. We nod, we smile, we say “yeah, totally.” But most of the time, we’re not actually listening; we’re just waiting for our turn to talk. In this video, I explore why most of us are worse at listening than we realize, how modern life trains us to tune out, and what it actually takes to hear someone. New here?

Why Quitting Can Be the Smartest Thing You Do

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/10/13

For years, I thought success was about working longer, faster, harder. But what if endurance only matters if you’re running in the right direction? In this video, I share why quitting might actually be the key to progress, and why, at first, it feels less like freedom and more like free fall.New here?

You’re Doing Productivity Wrong

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/10/06

We treat productivity like a competitive sport, measuring our worth in how many boxes we can tick before lunch. We pack our schedules, worship at the altar of busyness, and then wonder why we’re exhausted all the time. In this episode, I break down why our obsession with productivity might actually be making us worse at it.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 (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk

The Only Way To Actually Start

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/10/02

Starting something new sounds simple… until you realize you’ve spent three weeks researching which $2,000 camera is absolutely essential before you can upload your first YouTube video. Or whether your side hustle needs a logo that looks like Apple designed it. In this episode, I unpack how chasing the “perfect start” keeps us stuck, why getting burned is actually part of the process, and why the fastest way forward is usually the messiest.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by

These days, time feels like it’s on fast-forward, and no matter how many productivity hacks or morning routines we try, the days keep flying by.

Why You’re Running On Empty

Do you wake up feeling like you got hit by a bus, drag through the day in a low-energy fog, and wonder why coffee doesn’t seem to help anymore? I’ve been there. After months of overthinking, self-experimentation, and blaming everything from gluten to the alignment of the stars, I finally realized the truth: I was skipping the basics.

Lowering The Bar Saved My Life

The Motivated Mind ·

2025/09/22

For years, I bought into the hustle culture lie: work harder, do more, and success will follow. But after cutting my schedule in half and focusing on fewer, higher-impact tasks, I discovered something surprising: slowing down actually amplified my creativity, focus, and results. In this episode, I unpack how lowering the bar, embracing slow productivity, and letting go of unnecessary expectations saved my sanity and helped me produce better work.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life
