In this episode, Amy and I discuss the absolute mental warfare that goes on when life gets messy. We discuss my own total failure to execute a workout I was perfectly set up for and how I let a 7-minute moment of family chaos and emotional avoidance dictate a bad choice. The truth is, trying harder is not a strategy. You have to drop the victim card and finally own your choices.
We go deep into a tactical framework to help you own your choices. Every time you fail to execute, the first thing you need to know is if you’re dealing with a systems issue or an identity issue and stop using willpower as your only weapon. This is about being a professional at life and building non-negotiable habits, even when you feel like life is taking you in a different direction.
We go into depth on:
Why "trying harder" is a terrible strategy and why you need to swap it for strategic choices.
How to figure out if your fail is a Systems Issue (the environment/process) or an Identity Issue (the choices you make).
The painful reason why you keep breaking promises to yourself, even when you are perfectly set up for success.
Why you need to choose action over emotional avoidance to feel less stressed, not more.
The non-negotiable step of establishing enough volume (consistency) before you can even think about pivoting your plan.
If you're ready to stop letting your feelings derail your goals and finally get enough data to actually know if the plan you have set up is effective, don’t miss this episode. Stop making excuses and learn how to operate as You 2.0.
