“The discomfort of not changing your behavior must be greater than the discomfort of changing your behavior.” - Alan L.

In today’s episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros talk about why people find it hard to reach their goals. Creating a goal is easy; it's what you do to get there that is hard. One part of it is changing your identity, but this makes many people uncomfortable that they just decide not to stick to the plan. So take time to think about this: Are you telling new stories about yourself when it comes to the behavior you need to do to reach your goals? Remember, your identity plays a massive role in whether or not you succeed in the long run.
