Understand the Psychology of Motivation (and Procrastination)

Hear it Here - https://bit.ly/motivationtriggersking

The science of getting started: from complete apathy to full sprint. Stop saying “I’ll do that later…”

Humans, at our best, seek to take the path of least resistance. Often, this results in doing nothing at all. And it feels great. But we need to be able to switch to another gear. And you’ll learn how here.


Understand the psychology of motivation (and procrastination) and how to take advantage of it.


Motivation Triggers is an insightful look at motivation: how it works, and how you can interrupt our inclination to be lazy and procrastinate. You’ll learn to attack motivation from both a physical and psychological perspective. This book will teach you how to give your brain what it wants… while lighting a fire under you and pushing you to reach your goals.


Learn to trigger motivation and action on command.


Patrick King is an internationally bestselling author and social skills coach. His writing draws of a variety of sources, from scientific research, academic experience, coaching, and real life experience. He transformed himself from a lazy, apathetic person into someone with nearly endless motivation - this book understands your struggles.


Transform your thinking and multiply your results, no matter how lazy you are.


• The scientific and biological foundations of motivations.

The science of how to get started and find momentum.

• How to plan yourself out of apathy and into action.

An overview of the types of motivation: extrinsic, intrinsic, instinctual, drives, cognitive needs, bribes, etc.


Push yourself: because no one else will do it for you. You’ll thank yourself later!


The ability to light a fire in yourself is behind everything you want in life. We don’t want to do the dirty work; we don’t want to work hard; we don’t want to be uncomfortable. But it’s unavoidable for the success you want. How can we get over this?


Saying “just do it” isn’t enough. Learning the psychology behind motivation is what will push you into action, and consistently help you to achieve your goals. It is the foundation for the most focused moments of your life!
