I think I could benefit from some motivation in the morning to help a bit with getting out of bed. The only podcasts I can find are either made by people like Jocko Willink shudders or just promote grind/hussle culture.

Is there anything motivational that isn't made by reactionaries?

      I'm on the gym right now, fueled by classist rage by a communist historian commenting on public speech by a liberal economy minister.

      It works pretty well.

      How would it work? From what I've seen, a lot of those "motivational speaker" stuff is based on idealism. The whole notion of individual will vs society, the "just believe in yourself", etc. Marxism is a scientific theory, it's not snake oil.

        Sharpen yourself and yours skills to take part in a revolutionary movement close to you.

        You can fight capitalism by being better and stronger than all of them. And putting that skill to good use. It requires a balanced healthy life to keep yourself studying improving your understanding, and acting!

        Getting out of bed, taking care of your life, and still volunteering to build something better for everyone else! That shit is hard, it requires a powerful mind, a powerful body, and a powerful, revolutionary spirit.
