Mood Prep

Say it with me; There's no such thing as plateaus.. For years I would teach people to just "freelance" and "shock the body" to try and shake off a plateau. Later in my coaching years I learnt that majority of "plateaus" aren't even plateaus. It just stopped coming so easy and it's where the real work kicked in. But there was something else I lernt too....

There is a pretty big Self Love movement happening right now.. And I am on board with it... Kind of.. We kind of have it all wrong... And here's why..

The media wants you to think that times are bad. Sure they are uncertain. But name a time when things were ever certain in the world... This episode talks about how the future is only reserved for those able to live in the present and how to jump off the rat wheel and actually live. Not for everyone, but I know this will resonate with some.

Often people get caught up in the problem. Not realising that by shifting the way we view the problem, we can ask a deliberate set of questions that can lead us to a solution.  All problems are simply questions if framed correctly. This is also a good technique for those who struggle with journaling.

People often talk about how important goal setting is and there are countless lists, blogs, youtube videos and podcasts that tell you how you should do it. Most of them miss out on something that is almost more important than the goal itself. Your beliefs.  Often you hitting the goal has very little to do with the goal itself and more to do with what you believe to be true about yourself.

Don't sell out to societal norms. Listen to the muse. A lot of peoples salaries are just hush money for their dreams.

The best worst advice I have ever received; stop trying. Stop trying to impress people. Stop trying to be authentic. Stop trying to improve at your job. Stop trying to get fit. Just stop. And here's why.

Our identity has more control over us then we often realise. The identity that got you to where you are is likely not the one that will get you to where you want to be. The underdog or the champion?  What do you really want?

I will be the first to admit, I don't like the fitness industry. After 14 years I have seen both the good and the bad and the down right disgraceful. We sacrafice progression for results. Create short term strength "athletes" in sacrafice for long term movement. I don't care about the 12 week transformation. I care about the 3 year email.

We get it!... You're not motivated... Well guess what? That doesn't matter.  Motivation comes and goes. It's not your friend. It is there when things are easy and dissappears when they are hard. It's time to turn to passion over motivation. You got this.

No, not armless, limping, bleeding brain hungry zombies. It's the food we eat, the drinks we drink, the drugs we take (pharmaceutical or not) and the way we move or more importantly don't move that is forcing us to eat our own brains.  Learn how to train for "The Zombie Apocalypse".

So many people focus on winning the outer game that is often defined by the culture, community and society. In doing so, we neglect the inner game and its importance to unravel throughout our life.  This topic is by far one of my favourite and one I feel most people simply ignore.
