How many times have you started a new routine, diet, exercise program, etc., only to quit a week or two in? We tell ourselves the same thing over and over again: “It's just not for me. I need something different.” When the truth is, we didn't give that new thing enough time to make the changes we were hoping for. Here's the thing: You probably don't need something new, better, exciting or “different”. You just need to stick with something for more than 7 days. – You're not going to see the scale move much that first week. You're not going to be making huge gains on those barbell lifts that first week. You're not going to enjoy changing your food choices that fist week. And that's okay! Your main concern those first 1 to 2 weeks should be to be consistent. And those next 3-4 weeks should be focused on…being consistent. And the next 5-6 weeks should be about…you guessed it…consistency. Real change doesn't take place for at LEAST 3 months. So what's the rush? Fast results often lead to results lost fast. Take time to build your foundation to make sure it's solid and firm, so a few years down the road you can look back and say “Imagine where I would be right now if I didn't stay consistent back then?” – Consistency is key. Don't underestimate it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kyleerwin/support

More buuuuuurning questions. This time sitting outside of The Crepe Company in downtown Flint.

I want us to begin to really meditate on ‘Emmanuel’ (god with us) this year.  I see it talks about God dwelling inside of us (1 Corinthians 3:16) I see it talks about God being present among us (Matthew 28:20, Hebrews 13:5) I see it says if we hold his commands, he abides in us (1 John 4:16, 1 John 4:12, John 15:5) I see it says we can’t outrun him (Psalm 139:7-12) How often are we creating space for Him to live through our hearts? Are we giving Him a genuine resting place? I think about Jesus going 40 days + 40 nights in the wilderness to cultivate an even DEEPER connection between God and himself.  Constant communion creates confidence When we shift our thinking from “I hope God shows up” to “I know God is here”, your perspective changes. Apply that to any area of your life. How desperate are we for Him in the large and small aspects of our everyday living? God’s omnipresence suggests He is already there (Ps. 139:8). God’s indwelling presence tells us He is in us (Col. 1:27). --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kyleerwin/support
