This is part 2 of 5 in a mini series I'm making just for the this week. My goal is to discuss the "insignificant" and potentially overlooked areas of your life that actually end up making the most impact long-term both on your mental, spiritual, and physical health. IN THIS EPISODE: Our thoughts will eventually become our reality, manifestation begins in the mind, belief is more powerful than fact in our minds, and more! If you enjoyed this make sure to listen to part 3 where I discuss how important it is to be conscious about what it is you consume on a daily basis, in every sense of the word.

This is part 1 of 5 in a mini series I'm making just for the this week. My goal is to discuss the "insignificant" and potentially overlooked areas of your life that actually end up making the most impact long-term both on your mental, spiritual, and physical health. IN THIS EPISODE: Make your mornings as aligned with what you want out of the day as you can, because having a good foundation for the is the key to accomplishing what you want not only in the day but in life. I discuss my morning routine and outline some changes I have made, especially the ones that have had the greatest impact in my life thus far.  If you enjoyed this make sure to listen to part 2 where I go over the importance of controlling your thoughts and how much of an impact it will eventually have on your life.

Sometimes I can fall into a rut where I feel unmotivated, low energy and start looking at the world through a negative and pessimistic lens, often questioning the very basis of what usually gets me excited and passionate about living life. I have been in that rut for the past week or so, and it is only today that I have been feeling more myself. I took this opportunity to reflect (perfect timing for Friday's episode) and really dive deep into what it is that triggers this cascade of negativity, and what I can do to reverse it. The main lesson is: be proactive in life. If you ever find yourself being passive or even worse; reactive, then check yourself and really reflect on what it is that you want out of this life and put into question your daily actions that should be furthering you towards it. In this episode I go into what got me feeling this way and the steps I am taking to get out of it, and ofc what would an episode be without a few classic livelifecomplex rants sprinkled in. At the end of the day no amount of material gain will bring lasting satisfaction to our lives and this is truly the root cause of this pseudo-depression that both I and others periodically experience: the realization that the majority of our time is spent on meaningless tasks is a hard truth to face. However, if you can not only face it but understand that correcting this is exactly where you need to start directing your energy towards - if you are searching for some sort of fulfillment in this life - then you already have a better start than most.

It can be hard to wrap your mind around the fact that sometimes not training can be more beneficial than training. Sometimes. The only danger with recognizing this is that it can be used as an excuse to not put in the work when you least feel like it. There's a difference between being lazy and being fatigued/needing to rest and recover, it just takes a healthy amount of self-awareness to see when is which. In this episode I not only rant about the importance of recovery for injury prevention but the importance of a good pre-season for the same reasons. Sleep took over the episode as the main focus as it is most likely to be the one thing that most everyone struggles with and the one thing I myself have never been able to 100% conquer.

In this episode I dive into 2 questions submitted through my Instagram stories. If I did not get to your question just know that every single one was good and it was so difficult to choose which to respond to. I will be doing this again, and don't worry, I will most likely be answering yours on the next Q&A episode. As always thank you for listening and feel free to leave a voice message with any questions or feedback. To stay updated with the podcast follow it on IG and Twitter @livelifecomplex . PEACE✌🏼☀

This episode is all about how diet should not be viewed as temporary, in fact, when it becomes a lifestyle the opportunities for transformation are endless. Not only will proper nutrition separate yourself from those who aren't putting in that effort, it will make you never want to return to your previous ways. Hear this side of the story  from the Journeyfootballers and how studying and implementing proper nutrition helped them get to where they are now. Enjoy!! (I was also on their podcast recently so if you want to hear a full interview about my life thus far, go check out that episode on their podcast - Journeyfootballers.

From the few things I have observed all successful people have in common, to analogies on how important having a solid philosophy on life is; I cover an array of different thoughts in this 15 minute podcast. My goal is to show just how simple it is to stand out from the rest...on paper. The difficult part is continually living in alignment with your foundational take on life. Consistency will always persevere but that does not mean making mistakes and being inconsistent at times is necessarily wrong.  Mediocrity sets in the moment you step off your path. I explain all in this episode of the LIVELIFECOMPLEX Podcast.

This is a very special episode as I have my first remote guest in LIVELIFECOMPLEX history, Soheil Var (who is playing football in Austria) to come on and talk about how he has been getting creative when it comes to keeping fit in quarantine. We also touch on areas of the game outside of just training in Quarantine such as our favourite drills to do for ball mastery, what we need to work on overall as a footballer, what it takes to get noticed by coaches and scouts etc. I hope you enjoyed this episode. DON'T LOSE SIGHT OF YOUR GOALS, it can be so easy to get complacent when we are all stuck inside...but that is what this podcast is for ;)
