Welcome to the fourteenth episode the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad's Transformation Story.
It's really like jinxed, for years I've been torturing myself with my inoperable ankle, and today it's really throwing a wrench in my plans. Skateboarding in my youth not only gave me one or another broken leg, no, now I can't even get up the stairs properly anymore, but that doesn't stop me, because there's always a way to turn a barrier into an opportunity.
Tune in to find out if I managed to get up the stairs and if I was able to check all the boxes on the list today.
Feel free to share this podcast and tell others about my journey, maybe one or the other will feel inspired to join this mental toughness challenge.
Welcome to the thirteenth episode of the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad's Transformation Story. Today we're going through the list quickly because today is the first episode of Julius Book Club! I just got to the end of my first book, and it's The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson. It was a very good book and I've written out the ten points I took away:
Choose Your F*cks Wisely: Instead of caring about everything, focus your attention and energy on what truly matters to you. Not everything deserves your emotional investment.
Embrace Life's Inherent Challenges: Life is inherently difficult, and happiness comes not from avoiding problems but from solving them and growing as a person through the process.
Accept Your Limitations: Acknowledge your flaws and limitations rather than striving for unattainable perfection. Self-awareness is key to personal growth.
The Importance of Values: Define your core values and align your life with them. Living in accordance with your values brings a sense of purpose and fulfillment.
Taking Responsibility: Take ownership of your life and the outcomes of your decisions. Blaming external factors for your problems only disempowers you.
The Feedback Loop from Hell: Avoid the negative feedback loop where you feel bad about feeling bad. Emotions are natural, and it's okay to experience them without judgment.
The Importance of Action: Action is the antidote to most problems. Instead of overthinking, take decisive steps towards your goals.
The Subtlety of Not Giving a F*ck: The title doesn't suggest apathy; it encourages you to allocate your limited emotional energy to things that truly matter and let go of trivial concerns.
Happiness is Not the Goal: Pursue a meaningful life, not just happiness. True contentment often comes from facing and overcoming life's challenges.
Death and Legacy: Reflect on your mortality to gain perspective on what truly matters. What legacy do you want to leave behind, and how can you start working towards it now?
Feel free to leave me a review or comment if you want me to keep doing this!
Welcome to the twelfth episode of the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad's Transformation Story. I almost had to start the challenge again because I wasn't in control of my self-organization today. Besides the whole story and why it was so tricky, I'll give some insight into how and what I do for a living, because I'm not only a stay-at-home dad, but also an office manager, podcaster, podcast producer, and business development/marketing consultant. I tell you how I dance these many weddings at the same time in today's episode, here as discussed my LinkedIn profile.
Listen to the episode and see if I got the tasks done and for those of you who are new, feel free to leave a review and follow the podcast so you don't miss another episode.
[Triggerwarning] This episode includes the topic of alcohol and its health consequences or dangers and the topic of addiction.
Welcome to the eleventh episode of the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad's Transformation Story. Today we tick off the list, although it was relatively hectic today and the challenge was not as easy as on some other days.
Today, I'm dealing with my sobriety and why I decided to stop drinking alcohol. Basically, there is not much to write about it, because the story speaks for itself. Still, I would like to recommend this episode of Andrew Hubermann about alcohol and this book for all those who want to learn more about this topic, because it has already helped a lot of people including me.
Welcome to the tenth episode of the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad's Transformation Story.
I packed up my family at noon today and we went to Hamburg to participate in the Xletix Kids Event and we were successful! My oldest son and I did the big course and basically ran, crawled, dove, and swam the whole way. It was incredibly fun and showed me again how ambitious my son is when he sets his mind to something. My wife went through the small course with our younger son, it was impressive how a five-year-old takes on such a task. Otherwise, it is of course a challenge to master such a day without neglecting the other tasks and today was a first real test.
Tune in to find out if I met the challenge or if 75 Hard broke me today.
Welcome to the ninth episode of the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad's Transformation Story. Today is the first day of this season that I'm recording two episodes in one day, because I have an exciting day ahead of me tomorrow and I don't know if I can fit everything in. It's really unspeakably warm here at the time, so both workouts feel like they're being held in a sauna. In addition to the familiar tasks, today I once again dealt with IT issues and baked a good number of orange lemonade muffins, so all in all a very nice day.
Tune in if you're interested to see if I left my water out today or if I fell asleep again while reading this morning.
Feel free to leave me a review and maybe a follow, that would help me a lot!
Welcome to the eighth episode of the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad's Transformation Story. I sound like I'm falling asleep sitting up today, but I have to be quiet so I don't wake up my wife. Today was another very uncoordinated day, which ended up making the tasks very difficult, but this also helps to realize that you need to plan your days better or think about how to integrate your necessary tasks into your day efficiently. But I learned today that I can efficiently edit audio and video while walking on a treadmill, so I think I'm going to get a treadmill for home as well so I can get some extra exercise not just in the office.
And like every day, the question is how and if I did my tasks of 75 Hard, tune in to find out.
Welcome to the seventh episode of the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad`Transformation Story. Today was another pretty packed day, I was at the office, able to work off many things on my list, and at the same time, I was able to spend some time with my son in the afternoon, which is always a nice balance.
Today I will talk about why I decided to take on the 75 Hard Challenge and give an insight into my mindset, as people on the internet say today.
Tune in and listen to me review my day for a few minutes and find out if I could check off all the boxes on my list again today.
Feel free to leave me a review and follow the podcast never to miss another episode.
Welcome to the sixth episode oth the 75 Hard Challenge: A Dad's Transformation Story.
The second night in a row with less than five hours of sleep, I have to work on that, but better times are coming. Today I keep the core part short, so I can tell a little more about 75 Hard, soon I will also tell a little more about why I set myself this challenge.
So if you want to hear more about 75 Hard and whether I just went for another walk and got out my rowing machine, tune in.
For those of you who are new, it would be nice if you could leave me a review and maybe some feedback on what I could tell you about.
