Some days the hardest part is getting started. Carnelian is the crystal most traditionally chosen for motivation, associated with energy, drive and courage, and Citrine with positivity and success. Sunstone is linked with enthusiasm and a lift in energy.
Many people carry one when they're starting something new: a fitness goal, a creative project, or a job they keep putting off. Hold it for a moment, name the first small step, and begin.
To keep going once you've started, see our crystals for willpower; for creative work, our crystals for creativity; and for concentration, our crystals for focus.
