Music to Get Motivated

Motivating music for days you can't get started · 20 songs

▶ Start 10 minutesTimer + music, right now

Some days the hardest part is simply getting off the couch. Motivation often shows up after you begin, not before, so this playlist is built to get you over that first little hump. Expect uplifting tracks with a sense of forward movement, the kind that make you want to stand up and do one small thing.

Pick a task that takes ten minutes or less, press play, and let the first song carry you into it. You don't need to feel ready. You only need to start.

If even ten minutes feels like too much, use the 'I can't be bothered' button in the app. It picks an easy task and a happy song for you and starts the timer straight away, so there is nothing left to decide.

Tips

Choose one tiny, specific task, like 'empty the dishwasher'.
Put your shoes on or open the laptop before the first chorus.
Tell a friend what you are doing. A little accountability helps.
When the song ends, notice how you feel compared to before.
