In this episode we discuss our experience on the 75 Hard program as we both started it on the same day to kick off the new year. This episode was recorded 45 days into the program and we sat down to discuss what exactly the 75 Hard program is, and why you should try it. We cover how the weaker inner voice pops up when things get inconvenient and hard (unless you're David Goggins), and how this plays out in every area of life. The unconscious impulses that wreck your life without you knowing it, and what to do about it.  During this conversation we dive deep into the different ways that people sedate themselves, and how there’s a big difference between moving away from something versus moving towards a big goal you have. We also discuss an extremely impactful book that helps you build resilience, and a mindset to do the work in any area of life. We both successfully completed 75 Hard on March 17th, and if you guys would like to hear our thoughts on a wrap up podcast episode drop us a message and let us know.

Some Topics We Discussed Include:

• What 75 Hard is and why we chose to it (not for fitness reasons)

• Why negotiating with the weak inner voice is a dangerous path for your life. 

• How one of us failed 75 Hard on purpose a few years due to a recommendation from his therapist. 

• The different ways we all sedate ourselves (which one is your biggest?)

• We discuss how simple tricks you into thinking something is easy and causes frustration.

• Why this program unexpectedly teaches you empathy. 

• What the most important kind of promise is that you can make and keep in life. 

• The first big disagreement we have on the podcast. 

• Our biggest 75 Hard takeaways you can use even if you never do the program.
