Episode 51: Doing the hard things makes all the difference.
Episode Description: One of the skills that will really serve you in your quest for personal evolution is the ability to do hard things. The ability to do something even when you don't feel like it.
If you want to lose weight and keep it off, you will have to do a lot of hard things. That's just a fact. If losing weight were easy, everyone would be skinny. Losing weight and keeping it off is one of the most difficult things you will ever do. It's also one of the most important things you will ever do.
So let's talk about how to do hard things.
Episode Highlights: 10:25 Our brains are not going to evolve as quickly as our environment has evolved. Giving up a pleasure in the moment for the promise of something that will happen in the future is hard. It just is. It's a new concept and it's really quite an advanced skill.
13:36 The more often you tell your brain no, the more it stops hammering at you. So the truth is, if you want to create an amazing future for yourself, you're going to have to get good at doing hard things. And if you want to lose weight and keep it off, there's no magic pill.
16:54 Emotions are brought on by thoughts. So what thoughts are gonna create that emotion for you? What thoughts are going to cause you to feel determined? And perhaps it's something like I can do hard things, bring it on. I love that one. I can do hard things, bring it on, or I'm creating an amazing future for myself. That thought makes me feel determined and resolute and willing to do hard things.
