(2:00) He shares some items from his recent camping trip. (8:00) Vinnie is now planning a trip to the Grand Canyon next year. He also emphasizes the need for caution and experience when going mountaineering. (10:15) And you will learn a bit about the term "sherpa". Anna brings up James Clear's book, "Atomic Habits". (17:30) Speaking of habits, this segues to recipes and being a creature of habit in how we eat as well. Establishing a habit can take a range of time, from 60 days to 8 months or even forever. (30:00) Anna also mentions the book "The 12-week Year", which breaks up the year into quarters so you can achieve new habits. (32:00) Vinnie talks about consistency. (36:45) He uses rowing as a goal; he doesn't just want to row on his Concept 2 rower, he's interested in learning from the local rowing club. It makes him wonder about people who aren't interested in learning. This leads to a discussion about people who call Vinnie and express the frustration of "it was working, now it's not." (46:00) Many times people's habits get disrupted because support at home is limited. Or people aren't fully into it like they think, or they try to "jimmy the system", which doesn't work, especially long-term. He gives WW as an example. Anna talks more about how to stay on track even if you don't have a lot of support at home. (53:00) They chat a bit about retired Navy SEAL, endurance athlete, and author David Goggins. You can find his book "Can't Hurt Me" here. They chat about Anna's husband's softball league and more rowing.
