3 Ways to Continue to Keep Showing Up When Motivation is Low

Boxing Training for fitness

Commitment Over Motivation

We all have some days where showing up feels like a battle. The difference between those who grow and those who never level up? The decision to show up anyway. Here are 3 key ways to make that happen, consistently.

1. Find Your Reason

Motivation comes and goes, you’ll have days when it’s extremely high and others when it’s miserably low. What do you do on days when motivation to show up isn’t there? Ask yourself… Why did I start? Who and what am I doing this for? What commitment did I make to myself? Whether it’s to be a better father, take control of  your health, or finally prove something to yourself, knowing your reason gives you a foundation to stand on when the excuses start piling up.

2. Find Your People

Consistently mustering up motivation to train can only go so far when solo. Surround yourself with a group that pushes you, calls you out, and shows up alongside you. A motivated community doesn’t just inspire, it keeps you accountable. Find some like minded people to train with and you’ll see how much easier it is to show up. You rise when the people around you do.

3. Take Action

Slow motion is better than no motion. You don’t need to be 100% everyday, show up on days where you feel 60% 40% or even less. You just need to continue to move forward. Action builds momentum, and momentum builds discipline. Even a small step forward on a bad day is better than standing still in place. Show up messy. Show up tired. Show up sore. But always, show up!

Final Word

Success isn’t about how you feel, it’s about what you choose to do when you feel uncomfortable. So lace up your boots, push forward one step at a time and keep showing up!
