Much of this page is about learning how to focus, particularly when studying or doing creative work. But I do believe that the principles discussed on this page apply to all scenarios of amotivation.

Oftentimes our addictions can get in the way of feeling motivated, whether it’s the time spent with the addiction itself, or the inability to act after doing the addicting behavior because our mind is dulled or our body feeling fatigued and miserable. I’m confident the resources on this page can help everyone understand why they are drawn to those behaviors, and how to break free of them. Additionally, the sources highlighted in yellow are the highest yielding videos/articles.
