What To Do When Motivation Won’t Show Up with Robin J. Emdon

Stop chasing motivation and build momentum you can count on. I sit down with Robin J. Emdon, the procrastination slayer, to unpack his GetResultsology framework for solopreneurs and business owners. Robin explains why procrastination isn’t about laziness but about how our brains are wired, and he shows how to spot it before it takes hold. Together we explore his productivity trifecta of brain chemistry, the power of micro-deadlines, and why accountability works best when it creates support instead of pressure. You’ll hear how breaking projects into 10-minute wins builds confidence, how routines and structure reduce overwhelm, and why connecting daily actions to your bigger life vision makes progress inevitable. Highlights: Catch procrastination before it starts - Learn a quick self-check to notice when you’re slipping into “I’ll do it tomorrow,” and how to redirect in the moment. Use the Productivity Trifecta - Understand dopamine (the conductor), acetylcholine (the scholar), and noradrenaline (the fun-size warrior) so your brain is set up for focus and follow-through. Make structure do the heavy lifting - Pre-decide routines, add accountability for feedback not pressure, and use micro-deadlines to shrink overwhelm. Turn big projects into bite-size wins - Chunk work into small steps, set near-term hurdles, and apply the Pomodoro approach to build momentum daily. Lead with life vision, not just goals - Tie today’s tasks to a clear life vision so chores become stepping stones, not stress triggers.
