289: Q&A On Emotional Eating Jan 28, 2017

Show notes

Today I'm answering your questions on emotional eating. This is one of the biggest barriers to progress.

It's not that we don't know what to eat to reach our goals, it's that in moments of emotion or stress, we act as though we don't care.

We certainly DO care, and overeating or overindulging creates more emotion, stress and frustration.

If there is an area where you struggle, don't miss today's episode!

If you are ready to stop feeling limited by your emotional pain but need help breaking through and taking action, please check out Breaking Barriers!

287: Do Your Job Jan 24, 2017

Show notes

Yup. I love sports. I think they're incredibly analogous to winning in life. And, I love the New England Patriots.

A few days ago I watched the 2014 documentary "Do Your Job", a look inside the Patriots organization.

The parallels between their practice strategies and what is required for goal achievement in general were amazing.

In today's episode we're talking about goals, fat loss, life, sports & the New England Patriots.

This is probably one of my favorite episodes so don't miss it!

286: Progress Made Simple Jan 21, 2017

Show notes

In today's motivational minisode I'm sharing a short entry from my journal. I wrote to myself, "When I practice what I preach, my life is pretty amazing. When I do what I know to do, life is easier & I am happier".

Guys, progress isn't a mystery. You don't need to know anything more. If you simply do what you know, not only will you make progress, you'll be happier and less stressed.

You don't have to do everything you know, but if you're willing to be honest with yourself, I am quite certain you can identify 2-3 things that, if done consistently, would make you happier and healthier.

Get to work & do what you know! While you're at it, take a listen to the full motivational minisode!

285: How To Leverage Deliberate Practice Jan 19, 2017

Show notes

When I get emails from clients or listeners who are sharing a struggle or asking for help, I often respond by asking, "what does your practice look like?"

You might understand the problem and you probably understand many of the solutions, too. But, understanding doesn't take the place of deliberate practice.

It's not enough to say "I want to lose weight" because there are a million different things you could do on any given day to lose weight.

Deliberate practice will dramatically accelerate your results. It requires that you identify one specific improvement you want to achieve and define your practice.

From there you must practice CONSISTENTLY & with great effort. Don't miss today's episode for a deep dive into deliberate practice!

284: The Year of You Jan 17, 2017

Show notes

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!

283: The Foundation of Fat Loss Jan 14, 2017

Show notes

I talk a lot about nutrition, hormones & mindset and their role in fat loss. However, today I'm talking about the precursor to all of those things. Today I'm talking about the foundation of fat loss that is most often overlooked: self-respect. Self-care. Even, shudder to think, self-love.

Our obsession with diets, detoxes, fasts, cleanses and everything in between has taught us to fight against our bodies instead of being on our own side and in our own corner.

You cannot hate your way to a body you love. You cannot continue to resent your body, resist the process and be a complete dick (pardon me) to yourself and expect to reach your goals.

And if you hate your way to progress, it won't be enough when you get there. You'll be left longing for something more or something different because you lack self-respect and an understanding of self-care.

So we're going there. We're talking about self-respect, self-care and how to develop more of each.

282: Always Be A Beginner Jan 12, 2017

Show notes

The book Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind begins with a powerful observation: "In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's there are few".

Undoubtedly, one of the ways we keep ourselves from making progress and getting what we want is closing ourselves off to possibilities that could be the very path to progress.

One of my primary objectives within the Fat Loss Fast Track is to encourage my clients to always be a beginner. I want them to set aside any preconceived notions they have an instead listen to their bodies and find their own answers as opposed to clinging to answers they've adopted from other people.

In today's episode I'm going to talk about some of the red flags of a closed mind and how you can accelerate your progress by deciding to always be a beginner.

http://primalpotential.com/282-always-be-a-beginner/

Always Be A Beginner

Quotes from today's episode include:

In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, in the expert's there are few.

Right practice, right attitude, right understanding.

Practice without effort is not true practice. For the beginner, practice needs great effort.

If you lose the spirit of repetition, your practice will become quite difficult.

It is when your practice is rather greedy that you become discouraged with it.

There is no other way of this life than the way of this life
