Episode 274: Wilderness Expert: How to Stay Motivated in Life

We have all experienced lack of motivation. We feel as though we can’t accomplish anything or we simply don’t want to accomplish anything. If left unaddressed, it can cause to freeze up completely.

Today are joined by Dr. Tom Zimmer who is the Professor of Leadership and Outdoor Education at Wyoming Catholic College, a husband of 22 years, the father to 4 children, and wrote his dissertation on motivation.

Today we discuss how trying harder won’t fix anything, how to handle failure, and the three keys to staying motivated.
