Why Motivation Is Failing You (And What Actually Works)

Stream On Your Favorite Player

Motivation feels powerful, until it disappears.

In this episode of Bad Day Excellence, Brian Walsh breaks down why motivation is actually the reason most people quit their goals by mid January and what works instead. Using real life examples, behavioral science, and a simple momentum framework, Brian explains how identity driven habits and tiny consistent actions beat intensity every time.

You’ll learn why external motivation cracks on bad days, how to build systems that don’t depend on how you feel, and how small wins compound into real momentum you can be proud of.

If you’ve ever started strong and quit quietly, this episode is for you.
