58. Anticipation Energy

YES MUJER BUILD IT

Do you struggle with procrastination or avoidance?

Most people get into procrastination at some point.

Have you ever heard of Anticipation Energy or Stimulus Management?

In this week's episode, I share one of my favorite brain hack tools: Anticipation Energy.

Anticipation Energy is a Stimulus Tool you can use to overcome procrastination. It's a tool I regularly teach my coaching clients. It's also a great ADHD tool for managing your brain.

It works by increasing the stimulus in your brain for a particular task by attaching that task to something positive you are anticipating.

It starts with finding the right amount of stimulus that works for you. Examples of regular stimuli would be playing music in the background to help you study or to work by standing up to finish writing certain emails.

Anticipation Energy stimulus works by thinking of something you are looking forward to, like a trip you are taking or the excitement a child feels waiting for Santa Claus to deliver presents. The Anticipation of this event creates dopamine and adrenaline in our system. We then use that adrenaline to get the thing done we are avoiding.

It's a powerful tool that works really well in situations where the task you have to complete does not have enough stimuli.

Anticipation Energy helps you create the stimulus or the dopamine you need to follow through by connecting something you are excited about with something you need to get done.

I can't wait for you to give this tool a try!!
