Behavioral science says tiny actions create motivation, not the other way around

One of my favorite things about behavioral science is that it reminds me I don’t have to wait until I feel motivated. When I’m in a funk, tiny actions usually come first… and the motivation follows. These are a few of my favorite ways to get un-funky. 🥹 What’s one you’d add? Turn on a song and check your booty for 30 seconds. You heard me. Your mood has a funny way of catching up to your body. Do your makeup, even if you're not going anywhere. Pour a drink into a cute glass. Those tiny treats we give ourselves make boring days feel a little less boring. Go for a walk. Find one pretty thing. Your brain starts looking for what you actually pay attention to. And my favourite, narrate your life like it's a movie trailer. Where the world finally folds laundry. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it works to change my mood every turn! It's your turn! What helps you get unfunky? Drop your best tip in the comments because I know I'm missing some good ones.
