451: Instead Of Willpower, Use This…

451: Instead Of Willpower, Use This…

The other night, I was sitting on the couch around 8pm and all I could think about was that I wanted some chocolate.

I was actively talking myself into it, making a case for it, justifying it (successfully) and planning what I would get & where I would get it.

Suddenly, I realized that just like I could talk myself into wanting chocolate, I could talk myself into not wanting it.

I didn’t have to rely on self-discipline or willpower, but I could simply make a case for why I didn’t want it.

In today’s episode I’ll show you exactly how I did that and how you can use this approach – willpower & self-discipline not required!

362: Travel Light – Letting Go Of What Weighs You Down

362: Travel Light – Letting Go Of What Weighs You Down

I’ve shared with you that one of my mantras is “travel light” and it has been a game changer for me. This weekend, however, I realized that I’ve really dropped the ball on living that mantra, especially as it relates to my interactions with other people.

First, let me revisit (more for me than for you) what “travel light” means to me.

  • I don’t get flustered over the small stuff
  • I’m grateful
  • I find the good in everything
  • I choose to focus on opportunities to move forward
  • I am more powerful than my setbacks & circumstances
  • I know that joy is a choice & I choose it daily

Essentially, “travel light” reminds me to refuse to be burdened by anything. Let it go. Set it down. Travel light.

I really believe that often times, extra physical weight we carry is a physical manifestation of extra emotional weight we’re carrying.

More than that, most of the emotional baggage we carry with us is optional. We can & should set it down. We only carry it with us because we don’t realize that we can & should let it go.

284: The Year Of You

284: The Year Of You

Let’s make this year the year of you! Let’s make this year the year when your effort isn’t negotiable and your progress is consistent.

Today I want to share a personal conversation I had with a client. This particular client is so ready to change but her actions have yet to align with her intentions.

We recently had a tough-love conversation about progress, effort, excuses, negotiation and going all-in on yourself.

I told her that 2017 is my year, it’s her year and I want it to be the year of you, too.

If you need a little bit of tough love, don’t miss today’s episode!
