A Dance with Discomfort: Personal Growth in Uncomfortable Situations In this episode, obesity medicine and weight loss expert, Ali Novitsky MD dives into the themes of discomfort, personal growth, and the power of embracing awkward situations. Ali starts by sharing her recent experiences speaking at two significant events: the Institute of Physician Wellness in Tucson, Arizona, and the Prosperity Conference in Puerto Rico. These opportunities allowed her to discuss emotional regulation and optimal health strategies, which set the stage for the personal reflections she shares with you today. The core of this episode revolves around a poignant story from her daughter's 6th grade cotillion dance. Despite the excitement surrounding the event, Ali's daughter found herself overwhelmed and uncomfortable, primarily due to her introverted nature and the pressures of social expectations. This situation led to a deeper discussion on how to handle discomfort and the choices we make to either stay in an uncomfortable situation, or leave to seek comfort. Drawing parallels between a daughter's story and Dr. Ali's experience at the conferences, she explores how stepping out of one's comfort zones can lead to growth and unexpected positive outcomes. She recounts feeling out of place initially at the events but how staying open to the experience led to making new connections and enjoying enriching interactions. Furthermore, Dr. Ali touches on the importance of community and support systems, both in personal and professional settings. She introduces her new GLP-1 Optimal Weight Loss Program, emphasizing the significance of community in achieving and maintaining health goals. This program is designed to provide comprehensive support through medication, lifestyle adjustments, and emotional regulation. To conclude, Dr. Ali encourages all listeners to reflect on their own experiences with discomfort and the opportunities these moments provide for personal development and deeper connections with others. Whether it's navigating a social event or joining a new community, embracing discomfort can lead to fulfilling and transformative outcomes.

In this episode, AJ Osborne, CEO of Cedar Creek Capital and a prominent figure in self-storage syndication, shares his inspiring journey centered on two themes: mental resilience and making things happen. In 2018, AJ was diagnosed with Guillan Barre Syndrome, and he was faced with a choice: to either accept the life of being “that wheelchair guy” or dig deep mentally to thrive and succeed despite everything.   Six years later, AJ continues to run the fastest-growing self-storage syndication, with a portfolio of over $350M+ in assets. When he found himself in the hospital without a job, AJ's real estate investments provided the financial safety nets for his family and paved the way for him to keep building his net worth even while in a wheelchair. Through his experiences, our guest today emphasizes the importance of building cash-flowing assets and pursuing a business that will keep growing your net worth even when you're physically unable to work. This episode is a must-listen for anyone struggling with insecurities or self-doubt; AJ's profound outlook on confidence, passion, drive, and resilience is refreshingly unique and inspiring. Throughout our conversation, he emphasizes his framework for dealing with problems and learning to thrive in difficult situations. He also shares the secrets to his success in staying productive and accountable.   When it comes to making things happen in your life, AJ shares foolproof advice that might help you finally achieve your dreams! We discuss the importance of collaboration and leveraging time, resources, and, most importantly, connections. In a world that praises the bootstrapped entrepreneur, AJ reminds us that man can never be an island, and success is only gained by leveraging the people and opportunities around us. So tune in for an episode on re-evaluating how you navigate the real estate world and establishing mindset shifts for creating genuine wealth!

Key lessons on reinvention from our conversation:The worst moment in your life, can also be your best: You can use devastating times to build necessary momentum for change  to create opportunities. Adversity can lead to new paths and self-discovery.Experimentation over comfort: If you never try, you will never know what works for you. The key for high-performers lies in setting realistic expectations,  and embracing self-love unconditionally amid imperfection.Confidence despite fear of failure: Your people-pleasing tendencies push you towards perfectionism and hinder you from trying. True confidence lies in owning your uniqueness, celebrating small wins, turn comparison into motivation, and giving yourself grace when you fail. External validation wasn't sustainable to begin with.Authentic is strong:  Being a successful content creator or a successful model and actor in the competitive market of LA requires standing out. You can't stand out if you're a carbon copy of everyone else and trying to fit in. Dare to be different.Happiness is on the Other Side of Fear of Failure: Facing your fears is like finding the keys to doors that lead you into  rooms you never thought existed. Reframe your relationship to discomfort and your whole life will change.Chapters & Timestamps:04:24 Feeling Lost, Hopeless & Healing 05:07 How To Reinvent Yourself & Choose Your Own Path 08:00 The Problem With Imposter Syndrome & Needing Validation 11:15 Navigating the Challenges of Moving to LA & Starting Over 13:06 People Pleasing Vs.

How is your week going so far? Are you attacking your goals or are you dealing with the same old issues? Are you feeling like you are on track or stuck?   I am finding more often than not, that most people are cycling through the same problems. …and this problems are almost entirely struggles with the mind.   Sure there are challenges and obstacles in life, but most of them involve our mind or perspective.   So…I want to focus this week on Hacks for the Mind…because I feel like the DAILY battle with your mind is the BATTLE you must win if you are going to live your best life.     Recently, I've had to deal with some super challenging situations and I've found myself looking to my mentors and lessons learned for advice, counsel and answers.  So, I'd like to share some of those with you…   Let me do the leg work and offer you some great perspective, ideas, tips and tricks that work for battling with your mind.   So…when I'm starting to struggle a bit there are certain mentors I go straight to based on what I know helps me cope and get on top of the situations in my life…David Goggins is right on top of the list so lets start with him today…   David Goggins is well know for his ability to push past the normal limits of his body and the average person.   David says that most people live in 40% of their best life.  In other words most people quit at 40%.   They quit their relationships, their businesses, their fitness goals, and everything else they do.   He says its like a car with a governor…explain The car can certainly go faster…and it you are my car, it definitely likes to go fast…lol But, the governor from the factory slows the car down.  No matter how much you try it wont go above a certain set speed.   This is what our brains are doing to us when we start to encounter difficulty in our lives.   Our brains are designed to keep us safe, comfortable, out of difficult situations, so it sends us signals that make us want to quit and slow down or walk away from a challenge.   The problem is that usually our minds quit at about 40% of our potential says Goggins.   I find this really crazy because our minds really are our greatest tool…but also our greatest weakness.   And to make it worse, our minds know all of our dang weaknesses and have the language that it knows will make us slow down, doubt our abilities, create fear and basically make us quit.   Your mind knows you better than anyone or anything in your life….But guess what…   Believe it or not…YOU CONTROL YOUR MIND…You are the driver of this incredible tool.   You are not your mind.  You are the driver of your mind.  The key is to NOT let go of the steering wheel.  Thats what most of us do.  We let our minds do what they want and shut us down.   And when you let go of the wheel and let your mind wander enough times, you form the habits of giving up, being lazy, “settling for less”, and ultimately a mediocre life…at 40%…you start to coast through life.   How many of you feel like you might be just “going through the motions right now?”…waiting for a break in the storm…waiting for something to change…waiting for answers?…Well you are the answer.  You have the answers inside you...   So, why does this happen?  Why do we settle and give up on our relationships, business, and all types of things in life?   Basically, its because we crave comfort and many times don't see solutions to fix the problems so we quit.  But, this is when we need to look to give ourselves the most hope.  Because you do have the answers.  they just lie on the other side of quitting…on teh other side of the 40% mark.   See the key is to do what prosperity Principle # 3 says and ACT IN SPITE OF YOUR MOOD.   None of us wants to get up and go to the gym… None of us want to set feelings and ego aside and work through challenging relationships Noe of us want to get to work building our business after a long day at the J O B   But the truth is its only at the 40% level that David Goggins says we can truly create new habits and find real solutions.  It's at that point that the brain learns to become creative…not before.   You see your best life lies inside the pain…past the 40% mark. Your solutions will only come to you WHEN you are “experiencing” the difficulties.  The brain (your mind) is very resourceful, but it is also very tricky.  It knows your weaknesses.  It steers you toward comfort.     Go back to bed. Start Monday instead of today.  Give up and find a better opportunity, relationship, business, or gameplan.   When you tell yourself you are going to quit at that 40% level…your brain shuts down.  It wants to shut down.  Its wants the easy way out.  But don't let it control you. You control your mind...   This is when you need to tell yourself that “I am never going to give up”. Tell yourself that you have no choice but to succeed and your brain will go to work finding a solution to what you are dealing with.  It will look for the answers and help you be creative.   Eric Thomas says…when you want to succeed as much as you want to breath…that's when you will be successful.   Stop worrying about finding solutions to the problem and start focusing on never giving up.   This is going to be a daily battle with your mind.  You can develop habits, but just accept the fact that you will be battling your mind throughout your life…make it a challenge.  make it a game.   And this is where it will become a productive…become fun…become fulfilling…become success.   You see we have been searching most of our lives for happiness and fulfillment in the wrong place.  We spend our lives wanting happiness, but looking for it in places of comfort and easy paths.  I know I have...   David Goggins continually emphasizes that you won't find toughness, resilence and fulfillment in a comfortable environment.  This is why he challenges himself every single day.  He looks forward to being uncomfortable because that is where you will find your greatness and the greatest rewards in life…in the difficulties.  Learn to love to challenge yourself.   Science has shown us that you get small dopamine hits even with small accomplishments.   -overcoming a challenge -losing a few pounds -not giving up on that business or relationship   You don't need to get to the end goal to actually experience the fulfilling emotions…the dopamine hit that you and your brain desire…   Victory lies inside the smallest of steps…the smallest of accomplishments…   You will truly experience your best life and emotions by simply choosing to place yourself inside the battle.  Place yourself inside DISCOMFORT.  Let yourself get past the 40% mark where most people quit, cause that is where your greatness lies.   There are many ways you can help yourself get to this point and beyond:   -visualize what lies inside or beyond the battle -learn to disconnect from external needs for fulfillment…they are all inside you -know that the most fulfillment truly comes form the emotions you experience in the little moments of victory…THIS IS WHY WE SAY ITS THE “LITTLE THINGS IN LIFE" -visualize with clear and specific EMOTIONS…try this -learn and discover what motivates you (music, pictures, objects, emotions) -find a person or thing that drives you with something to prove -use past failures to DRIVE yourself   Just remember “one more rep”…thats a perfect example of being at the 40% mark and pushing through to your greatness.   Also, you have to realize that you do not have to have a trainer, coach, or specific tools.  You have all the tools inside you right now.  Your mind creates most problems and has the power and tools to overcome those problems.    I've spend most of my life searching for fulfillment, happiness and joy in the rewards and successes.  What I've learned is that ultimately we are all just seeking the emotions that various accomplishments or things will give us.   The secret is that we can experience those same emotions right now.  In the moment.  In overcoming small challenges…not just end goals…you've already experienced happiness in your life…visualization and small wins will bring those same emotions back into your life right now.   Learn to live beyond the 40% Learn to live in the gaps most people avoid Learn to never quit on your relationships, business, fitness goals and desires Learn to value the daily battle with your mind   See it as an exercise in uncovering your greatness… Look forward to the battle because it will bring you the happiness and fulfillment you desire.   Find ways to challenge yourself daily so that you can ultimately live the life you are capable of living…Push past the 40% mark.   Your Brain will find the tools to solve your problems    Yes, Your Thoughts Create Your Life…Yes, You are the One Who Steers the Ship…Your Mind.   Start Today to Challenge Yourself to become the Best Version of Yourself.  Learn to love LIVING inside UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATIONS.   And as David Goggins Says….STAY HARD

Tell yourself that you have no choice but to succeed and your brain will go to work finding a solution to what you are dealing with.  It will look for the answers and help you be creative.   Eric Thomas says…when you want to succeed as much as you want to breath…that's when you will be successful.   Stop worrying about finding solutions to the problem and start focusing on never giving up.   This is going to be a daily battle with your mind.  You can develop habits, but just accept the fact that you will be battling your mind throughout your life…make it a challenge.  make it a game.   And this is where it will become a productive…become fun…become fulfilling…become success.   You see we have been searching most of our lives for happiness and fulfillment in the wrong place.  We spend our lives wanting happiness, but looking for it in places of comfort and easy paths.  I know I have...   David Goggins continually emphasizes that you won't find toughness, resilence and fulfillment in a comfortable environment.  This is why he challenges himself every single day.  He looks forward to being uncomfortable because that is where you will find your greatness and the greatest rewards in life…in the difficulties.  Learn to love to challenge yourself.   Science has shown us that you get small dopamine hits even with small accomplishments.   -overcoming a challenge -losing a few pounds -not giving up on that business or relationship   You don't need to get to the end goal to actually experience the fulfilling emotions…the dopamine hit that you and your brain desire…   Victory lies inside the smallest of steps…the smallest of accomplishments…   You will truly experience your best life and emotions by simply choosing to place yourself inside the battle.  Place yourself inside DISCOMFORT.  Let yourself get past the 40% mark where most people quit, cause that is where your greatness lies.   There are many ways you can help yourself get to this point and beyond:   -visualize what lies inside or beyond the battle -learn to disconnect from external needs for fulfillment…they are all inside you -know that the most fulfillment truly comes form the emotions you experience in the little moments of victory…THIS IS WHY WE SAY ITS THE “LITTLE THINGS IN LIFE" -visualize with clear and specific EMOTIONS…try this -learn and discover what motivates you (music, pictures, objects, emotions) -find a person or thing that drives you with something to prove -use past failures to DRIVE yourself   Just remember “one more rep”…thats a perfect example of being at the 40% mark and pushing through to your greatness.   Also, you have to realize that you do not have to have a trainer, coach, or specific tools.  You have all the tools inside you right now.  Your mind creates most problems and has the power and tools to overcome those problems.    I've spend most of my life searching for fulfillment, happiness and joy in the rewards and successes.  What I've learned is that ultimately we are all just seeking the emotions that various accomplishments or things will give us.   The secret is that we can experience those same emotions right now.  In the moment.  In overcoming small challenges…not just end goals…you've already experienced happiness in your life…visualization and small wins will bring those same emotions back into your life right now.   Learn to live beyond the 40% Learn to live in the gaps most people avoid Learn to never quit on your relationships, business, fitness goals and desires Learn to value the daily battle with your mind   See it as an exercise in uncovering your greatness… Look forward to the battle because it will bring you the happiness and fulfillment you desire.   Find ways to challenge yourself daily so that you can ultimately live the life you are capable of living…Push past the 40% mark.   Your Brain will find the tools to solve your problems    Yes, Your Thoughts Create Your Life…Yes, You are the One Who Steers the Ship…Your Mind.   Start Today to Challenge Yourself to become the Best Version of Yourself.  Learn to love LIVING inside UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATIONS.   And as David Goggins Says….STAY HARD

This episode turned a little pep talk. In this solo episode, I share two stories where I was not expecting to feel so alone.  I explain how I never folded and how I am so happy I pushed through the uncomfortable feelings of uncertainty. Thanks for listening! Follow us on Instagram!

On a sabbath Jesus went to dine at the home of one of the leading Pharisees, and the people there were observing him carefully. Luke 14:1Jesus accepted an invitation from this prominent Pharisee to dine at his house. The people at the dinner were “observing him carefully.” It's somewhat easy to picture the scene. For most people, being invited to a dinner with many strangers who are observing them carefully may leave them feeling quite uncomfortable and self-conscious. But Jesus showed up with perfect confidence and an unwavering commitment to share the Gospel. One thing we can learn from this dinner and Jesus' disposition at it is that uncomfortable situations are actually great opportunities to share your faith. We will all have times when we are put in an uncomfortable situation. Imagine, for example, being invited to a party for a distant relative or a new neighbor. You decided to attend and knew that you would know very few people there. The tendency for those who are shy would be to show up, find someone they know, and then spend the rest of the time with that person. But consider what Jesus did. He probably knew very few people at this dinner. Jesus' primary purpose in attending was not to just relax and have a fun time while He met new friends. Instead, His primary purpose was to preach His saving message to those in need. Thus, He went to those in need and did so with confidence.Whether you are one who likes to socialize and meet new people, or are one who dreads such settings, consider the simple fact that these settings are wonderful opportunities to share your faith. Like our Lord, if you are willing to put yourself out there, entering situations that are new and unfamiliar, then you may start to discover that the opportunities abound. New settings and new people are new opportunities to evangelize. True, they are also opportunities to make new friends and enjoy yourself. But if you have a heart set on the desire to share the Gospel, then you will regularly look for new opportunities in which you can somehow share your faith with others. Reflect, today, upon this simple Gospel scene of Jesus attending a dinner, with many people He did not know, for the purpose of sharing the faith with them. Imagine yourself joining our Lord at this meal. How would you have felt? Would you have been self-conscious and uncomfortable? Or would you have seen it as an opportunity to share the Gospel? Reflect upon how zealous you are in your efforts to evangelize others and recommit yourself to this holy endeavor. Tell our Lord you are ready and willing to be used by Him wherever He sends you and then try to see every new adventure and experience in life as a new opportunity to share Christ's saving message with others. My saving Lord, You desire that Your saving message be shared far and wide, to the ends of the earth. Please fill me with zeal for souls. Give me an unwavering desire to share the Gospel with everyone I meet. Please use me, dear Lord, in the way You desire, so that Your love and mercy will be brought to those in need. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2023 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.

There are many ways to protect yourself in sticky situations, but Jocelyn Castillo's go-to tool is, well, herself. After a career ending injury while training to become an MMA fighter, Jocelyn turned to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, or BJJ, to continue her passions. In this episode she sits down with the girls to dive into her life as a mechanical engineer by day, and personal safety advocate through BJJ by night. Jocelyn stresses the importance of situational awareness as well as being able to analyze and take the necessary steps to get out of any situation. Her passion for self defense then lead her to obtaining her permit to carry, and now she has set out to take as many firearm trainings as she can  and learn from many professionals to be well rounded in her endeavors.

Society often pressures people to conform to pre-determined expectations. But what if you made a new path and chased your dreams? In a deep conversation with Lauren Mauldwin, we discuss challenging the status quo to create your own version of ambition. After years of feeling trapped by society's expectations, Lauren had an epiphany: rather than trying to fit into a pre-determined path, she could take control of her life journey. This decision would lead to a life-altering twist, teaching her the power of embracing failure and vulnerability. Would she also be able to help others toward achieving their goals? Here's why Lauren stopped following the status quo to choose her own path. Keep the conversation going! Follow Lauren Mauldwin on LinkedIn and Facebook.

In this conversation, Jacob and Scott talk about Scott's rough entrance into New Orleans and his attempts to jibe with the Mardi Gras vibe, even though drunken crowds are decidedly not his thing. They discuss the importance of honoring where you are, and at the same time not being bound to stories about yourself that may prevent you from moving forward. The friends talk about the witness again, that place within each of us that only observes the mind and its thoughts, without becoming attached to any of them. They leave listeners with a question to consider, in general, and especially when we find ourselves in a circumstance we're not excited about: what do I need right now?

Hi everyone!! Hope you have had a lovely week, and are excited for the week ahead. It has been a lot of different emotions this week personally, it was a week of blah feeling...if you can relate to "blah" haha. But here to say that no matter what, it will always be okay. Something I am working on this 2023 year is to allow myself to feel emotions...good, bad, ugly. I am really good at suppressing a lot. However, in this episode aria and I talk about a books we are reading "7 steps of manifesting" & "Breaking the habit of being yourself". Both of these books talk about of course manifesting but also believing in yourself. Taking steps that feel vulnerable and uncomfortable. Like I always say....If you want to hear more take a listen to this weeks pod :) we love you guys! xoxo brit & aria

A day late & a dollar short, but that's how we're rolling 10 days out from opening day of duck season in Arkansas and 48 hours in Las Vegas last week. But for this #TuedayTalkwithLB I got to sit down in person with one my best friends from college, Cole Teuton. We started off with his life story about where and how he grew up. He told me about growing up in North MS / Memphis Area and going to an all boys high school. We talked about life challenges as a young adult, and he told me some stories about taking responsibilities in college. Then we got into the good stuff. Cole has spent the last 3 summer guiding white water rafting trips on the Ocoee River in Eastern TN. We dove deep into all the ins and outs of not only being a guide, but also surviving life on and off the river. We told stories about life lessons and new experiences. Cole has also spent the last 2 months in West Virginia guiding white water rafting trips on the Upper and Lower Gauley River. He told me about all the good and bad of guiding that river compared to the Ocoee.  He explained the training that is involved with becoming a guide, and how intense each trip down the river is. Cole told me about the incredible people and amazing places he has been able to experience so far in his life. We wrapped up with some advice & man, I couldn't be more proud of Cole. I'm lucky to call him my friend & have him as an influence on my life. I'm a huge supporter and fan of him, as well as he mine. *If there's something you want to do, do it*Thanks for listening to a #TuesdayTalkwithLB @lb_laurenbrady Thanks to my sponsors @southern_prairie_outfitters @rigemright@campbells_hillside_kennels@huck.outdoors

Are you feeling like you are on track or stuck?   I am finding more often than not, that most people are cycling through the same problems. …and this problems are almost entirely struggles with the mind.   Sure there are challenges and obstacles in life, but most of them involve our mind or perspective.   So…I want to focus this week on Hacks for the Mind…because I feel like the DAILY battle with your mind is the BATTLE you must win if you are going to live your best life.     Recently, I've had to deal with some super challenging situations and I've found myself looking to my mentors and lessons learned for advice, counsel and answers.  So, I'd like to share some of those with you…   Let me do the leg work and offer you some great perspective, ideas, tips and tricks that work for battling with your mind.   So…when I'm starting to struggle a bit there are certain mentors I go straight to based on what I know helps me cope and get on top of the situations in my life…David Goggins is right on top of the list so lets start with him today…   David Goggins is well know for his ability to push past the normal limits of his body and the average person.   David says that most people live in 40% of their best life.  In other words most people quit at 40%.   They quit their relationships, their businesses, their fitness goals, and everything else they do.   He says its like a car with a governor…explain The car can certainly go faster…and it you are my car, it definitely likes to go fast…lol But, the governor from the factory slows the car down.  No matter how much you try it wont go above a certain set speed.   This is what our brains are doing to us when we start to encounter difficulty in our lives.   Our brains are designed to keep us safe, comfortable, out of difficult situations, so it sends us signals that make us want to quit and slow down or walk away from a challenge.   The problem is that usually our minds quit at about 40% of our potential says Goggins.   I find this really crazy because our minds really are our greatest tool…but also our greatest weakness.   And to make it worse, our minds know all of our dang weaknesses and have the language that it knows will make us slow down, doubt our abilities, create fear and basically make us quit.   Your mind knows you better than anyone or anything in your life….But guess what…   Believe it or not…YOU CONTROL YOUR MIND…You are the driver of this incredible tool.   You are not your mind.  You are the driver of your mind.  The key is to NOT let go of the steering wheel.  Thats what most of us do.  We let our minds do what they want and shut us down.   And when you let go of the wheel and let your mind wander enough times, you form the habits of giving up, being lazy, “settling for less”, and ultimately a mediocre life…at 40%…you start to coast through life.   How many of you feel like you might be just “going through the motions right now?”…waiting for a break in the storm…waiting for something to change…waiting for answers?…Well you are the answer.  You have the answers inside you...   So, why does this happen?  Why do we settle and give up on our relationships, business, and all types of things in life?   Basically, its because we crave comfort and many times don't see solutions to fix the problems so we quit.  But, this is when we need to look to give ourselves the most hope.  Because you do have the answers.  they just lie on the other side of quitting…on teh other side of the 40% mark.   See the key is to do what prosperity Principle # 3 says and ACT IN SPITE OF YOUR MOOD.   None of us wants to get up and go to the gym… None of us want to set feelings and ego aside and work through challenging relationships Noe of us want to get to work building our business after a long day at the J O B   But the truth is its only at the 40% level that David Goggins says we can truly create new habits and find real solutions.  It's at that point that the brain learns to become creative…not before.   You see your best life lies inside the pain…past the 40% mark. Your solutions will only come to you WHEN you are “experiencing” the difficulties.  The brain (your mind) is very resourceful, but it is also very tricky.  It knows your weaknesses.  It steers you toward comfort.     Go back to bed. Start Monday instead of today.  Give up and find a better opportunity, relationship, business, or gameplan.   When you tell yourself you are going to quit at that 40% level…your brain shuts down.  It wants to shut down.  Its wants the easy way out.  But don't let it control you. You control your mind...   This is when you need to tell yourself that “I am never going to give up”. Tell yourself that you have no choice but to succeed and your brain will go to work finding a solution to what you are dealing with.  It will look for the answers and help you be creative.   Eric Thomas says…when you want to succeed as much as you want to breath…that's when you will be successful.   Stop worrying about finding solutions to the problem and start focusing on never giving up.   This is going to be a daily battle with your mind.  You can develop habits, but just accept the fact that you will be battling your mind throughout your life…make it a challenge.  make it a game.   And this is where it will become a productive…become fun…become fulfilling…become success.   You see we have been searching most of our lives for happiness and fulfillment in the wrong place.  We spend our lives wanting happiness, but looking for it in places of comfort and easy paths.  I know I have...   David Goggins continually emphasizes that you won't find toughness, resilence and fulfillment in a comfortable environment.  This is why he challenges himself every single day.  He looks forward to being uncomfortable because that is where you will find your greatness and the greatest rewards in life…in the difficulties.  Learn to love to challenge yourself.   Science has shown us that you get small dopamine hits even with small accomplishments.   -overcoming a challenge -losing a few pounds -not giving up on that business or relationship   You don't need to get to the end goal to actually experience the fulfilling emotions…the dopamine hit that you and your brain desire…   Victory lies inside the smallest of steps…the smallest of accomplishments…   You will truly experience your best life and emotions by simply choosing to place yourself inside the battle.  Place yourself inside DISCOMFORT.  Let yourself get past the 40% mark where most people quit, cause that is where your greatness lies.   There are many ways you can help yourself get to this point and beyond:   -visualize what lies inside or beyond the battle -learn to disconnect from external needs for fulfillment…they are all inside you -know that the most fulfillment truly comes form the emotions you experience in the little moments of victory…THIS IS WHY WE SAY ITS THE “LITTLE THINGS IN LIFE" -visualize with clear and specific EMOTIONS…try this -learn and discover what motivates you (music, pictures, objects, emotions) -find a person or thing that drives you with something to prove -use past failures to DRIVE yourself   Just remember “one more rep”…thats a perfect example of being at the 40% mark and pushing through to your greatness.   Also, you have to realize that you do not have to have a trainer, coach, or specific tools.  You have all the tools inside you right now.  Your mind creates most problems and has the power and tools to overcome those problems.    I've spend most of my life searching for fulfillment, happiness and joy in the rewards and successes.  What I've learned is that ultimately we are all just seeking the emotions that various accomplishments or things will give us.   The secret is that we can experience those same emotions right now.  In the moment.  In overcoming small challenges…not just end goals…you've already experienced happiness in your life…visualization and small wins will bring those same emotions back into your life right now.   Learn to live beyond the 40% Learn to live in the gaps most people avoid Learn to never quit on your relationships, business, fitness goals and desires Learn to value the daily battle with your mind   See it as an exercise in uncovering your greatness… Look forward to the battle because it will bring you the happiness and fulfillment you desire.   Find ways to challenge yourself daily so that you can ultimately live the life you are capable of living…Push past the 40% mark.   Your Brain will find the tools to solve your problems    Yes, Your Thoughts Create Your Life…Yes, You are the One Who Steers the Ship…Your Mind.   Start Today to Challenge Yourself to become the Best Version of Yourself.  Learn to love LIVING inside UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATIONS.   And as David Goggins Says….STAY HARD
