How often do we find ourselves waiting for motivation to magically appear, especially in our closest relationships?
I’ve been there too, more times than I’d like to admit. But here’s the hard truth I’ve learned: motivation isn’t a reliable spark; it’s something we create.

How many times have you been stuck waiting for that magical lightning bolt of motivation to finally get things done? I know I have, countless times.

I’ll be sharing some of my own struggles and the practical steps I’ve taken to break free from this motivation trap. For me, it became about more than just my own goals; it was about showing up as the dad my kids deserve. That intention, that commitment to them, became the real kickstarter.

If you’re waiting for it, you’re wasting your life.
This episode dismantles the motivation myth and reveals the true driver of action: DISCIPLINE.
