The Playbook With David Meltzer
Can I use anxiety to motivate myself | #AskDavidMeltzer 13
13 Feb 2021
Fear and anxiety will motivate you, but it will drain you. It will get you started, but in reality it is slowing you down. Use the focus that fear and anxiety give you, and transition it into inspiration. Imagine that you are running a race, using fear and anxiety is just like adding weights to a backpack. I may be slower than you, but if I am inspired, it is only a matter a time before I am laps ahead of you. Take the backpack off and run the race inspired. Motivation is temporary, inspirations lasts forever.
