About this listen

We talk about motivation as if it’s the thing that gets meaningful work done. But what if it isn’t?

In Episode 2 of Life at Our Best™, Dom Wharram challenges the idea that motivation is the key to progress... and offers a quieter, more reliable alternative.

Motivation is a feeling.

Commitment is a decision.

Drawing from real life and everyday examples, Dom explores why motivation often fades in the moments that matter most... and how simple “I will” commitments carry us through when excitement, energy, or encouragement aren’t available.

This episode isn’t about hype, playlists, or pushing harder. It’s about honoring the promises we make to ourselves, especially when life is busy, messy, or unspectacular.

If you’ve ever waited to feel motivated before taking action, this conversation offers a practical reframe... and a small experiment you can try as early as tomorrow morning.
