I am very wary to use the words "healthy" or "unhealthy" in terms of diet because black and whites don't exist in nutrition any more than they exist in training. In this podcast I explain a common problem that I've dealt with myself- the incessant need to eat healthy.

Life is busy. Sometimes it's hard to find time to think about personal or career enrichment. I brought Pat Flynn today (who you'll remember from Episode 152: Making Truth Your Target) to discuss these topics, and of course some great fitness and diet info too! Pat is a philosopher, author, and generalist among other things who through hard work, experimentation, and mentorship has carved out a path as a successful coach and entrepreneur.

The perfect plan will get you nowhere if done haphazardly. It's fun to optimize but it's much more important to make sure you can be consistent. I share six ways I remain consistent with my nutrition and fitness in this episode.

Max Nottonson has been a friend of mine for over two years and he was long overdue to come back on the podcast! We got to talking about changing identity, and although it was mentioned, didn't quite get to talk about Max's automated fitness habits. He will be back soon! Max has worked as a fitness coach and is currently working in influencer marketing. We talked about a wide range of topics including the books we're into, instant vs. long term gratification, and happiness in life/career.

Today on the podcast I was joined by Emmy-Nominated writer and co-author of bestselling books: Unplugged, Game Changer, The 17 Hour Fast, Waterman 2.0 and coming in November, The Leader’s Mind. In this podcast we talked about writing as it relates to personal productivity and the delicate balance we try to strike between doing important work and just living life (plus dealing with burnout). We also talked about why and how everyone can be a leader as well as Phil's best interview tips.

If you are no longer lucky enough to be in your 20s with hours a day to workout, you may be experiencing a deterioration in your fitness from a death of a thousand cuts. Anders knows that fitness impacts our relationships, our confidence and our happiness more than we realize. That's why he created the Diesel Dad program to help anyone get into or back into the best shape of their life without changing their entire life around. "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." -Lao Tzu

Give Anders a follow on Instagram where you can also find the Diesel Dad program!

One of the unpalatable lessons about walking around with a six pack is that nobody really gives a shit. Don't set goals in hopes of affirmation from others, and realize that the journey is more important than the destination.
