Habit Based Lifestyle

Have you ever found that taking the “easy” way out is never actually so easy?  Have you ever avoided doing what needs to be done and wound up carrying around completely unnecessary stress?  It’s all a result of procrastination.  Even though it seems easier, we create problems in our life because we put off important tasks.  Listen today to find out how I created three months of stress in my life by putting off a simple task, what I did to fix the problem, and how you can avoid doing the same thing in your life.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Communication is the most essential piece of maintaining any relationship.  When communication is good, a relationship flourishes.  When it’s not, things become disconnected and uncomfortable.  Learning the way that your partner prefers to communicate will take your relationship to the next level.  Today my wife and I discuss the five love languages as well as some tips and tricks that we use to stay connected to one another.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Do you have a habit of taking on stress?  The answer is yes.  To some varying degree we all do.  The real question isn’t if you have stress, but how do you respond to it?  Most likely you’re not even conscious of the way stress is affecting your physical and mental health.  From heart disease to high blood pressure to depression and more, the effects of stress run the gamut.  So how can you minimize the effect stress has on your body and your mind?  Today I’m going to explain how to recognize stress in your life and strategies to take control of it.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

As men we tend to default toward working long and hard hours.  We create stories that it’s OK because we’re focusing on building our business, that we’re providing for our family, and that we’re creating for our future.  If we’re really being honest, these are just stories we’ve made up over the years to justify working ourselves into the ground.  Worst of all, we end up working so much we’re unable to actually show up for our families.  In today’s episode, I provide some questions to help you asses whether your work habits are negatively effecting the rest of your life.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

When is doing the no longer the way to go?  When it becomes forced.  The truth is that ’The Work’ never truly goes away.  It never goes away in business, my body, or my relationships.  Remaining too focused on doing the daily work and simply checking off the boxes doesn’t leave much room for creativity.  Today I’m going to discuss how embodying my work has changed my life and provide the tools I used so you can do the same.  When you switch from ‘doing the work’ to ‘being the work’, the sense of fulfillment and enjoyment you gain from life will completely transform.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

The term ego tends to carry a negative connotation.  The reality of the situation is  there are both positive and negative forms of ego.  With the immature ego we tend to live in the past.  It is a place of safety because we attempt to control every single aspect of a situation.  A mature ego allows us to recognize that we are in fact enough.  Today I’m going to explain what you can do to get out of the immature ego, get into the mature ego, shed your mask, and let go of the comfort of the past.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

How often in your life are you searching for comfort?  When we’re faced with any challenge in life the easiest thing to do is default back to comfortable situations, whether that’s a friend, a relationship, a former version of ourselves, a habit, and so on.  This means that in order to truly change, you must completely change your habits, routines, and environments.  How is that done?  By releasing yourself from your past negative feelings and emotions.  Today I explain why the only way to change is by clearing out the negative to make room for the positive.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Core habits are essential to growing and succeeding every day.  While your habits don’t have to mirror mine, it’s important to not only establish consistent habits but also to continuously evolve them.  Why?  If they don’t evolve it's more likely that you’ll become comfortable and fall back into previous patterns and bad habits.  Even after living this Habit Based Lifestyle for the past four years, I’m constantly making tweaks to create new results.  Listen to find out how to implement this practice in your daily life.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Do you have a habit of wanting to help everyone?  I’ve built my career on helping people change their lives in fitness and in the coaching space.  Sometimes help isn’t wanted, needed, or necessary.  The issue that can occur when we try to solve other people's problems is that they don’t develop the skills to solve problems on their own.  During a recent trip to San Francisco, an incident made it apparent the weight I’ve been carrying from trying to solve other people's problems.  Listen to discover the process I used to unravel this situation and how you can do the same   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]
