To elevate motivation, first assess your current state to understand your starting point. This entails embracing a motivation spectrum model. Next, shift your perspective by fostering choice, connection, and competence as you strive for a higher motivation level. Implement practical steps such as listing your values and analyzing how you allocate your time and resources to highlight discrepancies between your declared values and your actual behaviors. Recognizing these gaps is crucial for aligning actions with the person you aspire to be.
