Motivational TED Talks

There’s nothing worse than finding yourself in a productivity rut! For most people, it always seems like you lose motivation when you have the most work to do. While there is a lot of research online about ways to find and maintain motivation when you find yourself stuck in a rut, when it comes to getting motivated the most important thing is to find a routine that works for you.

For some, the best approach is to take a break from whatever you are working on. This can be achieved by taking a quick walk outside for some fresh air, getting in a work out, or spending time with friends and family. Another great approach for finding motivation when you are stuck in a rut is to watch or read inspirational content. TED, the popular media company that produces videos on technology, education, and design topics, is a great source of motivational content.
