7 Tips To Get Out Of A Rut

Rob Dial
About this episode

Welcome and thank you for joining in on The Mindset Mentor podcast.

Even after 18 years of really working on myself, and successfully building one of the top Self Development and Mindset podcasts in the world…

It’s important that everyone understands that I go through the same struggles that you do.

That’s why in today's episode I am going to share some of my personal experiences and super 7 simple techniques that I follow whenever I find myself in a rut and need out QUICK, and more importantly…

These simple 7 steps can actually PREVENT yourself from repeatedly falling into a deep rut to begin with:

1. Take action.

Whether that's through exercise, or going to Starbucks to get your caffeine fix for the day, or any other means. Inaction will only lead to more inaction, so shift your focus to moving and taking action.

2. Take small steps towards your goals.

Stop thinking about everything you need to do and try to focus on one thing at a time.

3. Celebrate your small wins along the way.

This will help you continue building the momentum necessary to keep moving FORWARD.

4. Turn off your phone and other electronics that may distract you when you’re working on something that’s important to you.

One thing I love to do every day for my mental health is read. I have recently gone back to reading physical books every single morning and it is a great way to start your day AWAY from electronic devices and the forces of the internet.

5. Just focus on the next 60 seconds.

This may sound crazy, but by just breaking down your tasks into smaller steps that can be done in short spurts of time… it will make it easier to focus and be clear on what you want to do and need to do next.

6. Ride the momentum.

Once you start taking action, the momentum will start to build, making it easier to move from task to task.

7. Get yourself around some people that are good for you.

It is important to get around other people that can help you move towards what you want to achieve. Surround yourself with people who will support and encourage you to actually be the best version of yourself possible..

By implementing these seven tips into your daily habits and shifting your behavior like this, you'll be able to get out of even the deepest rut and make progress towards your goals.

Remember, being motivated comes from taking action, so take the first step and start making changes today.

*BONUS* My gift to help you start experiencing transformation in your life and walk closer towards that freedom.
