When you think of goals, you generally think of obtaining a specific outcome, right? That is exactly how I have set my goals in the past, until this year. Don't get me wrong, goals should be measurable, and there is nothing wrong with outcome goals. I still use them; however, my focus has shifted from obtaining specific outcomes to obtaining general mastery of skills. Outcome goals are usually accomplished through mastery of a series of basic skills, and those skills are gained through regular practice. Break goals down into skills required to accomplish those goals, and break down skills into daily practices that help develop those skills.

How much time do you spend fulfilling someone else's dreams? How much time to you spend fixing other people's problems? Have you ever broken down how you spend your time each day? When you take a look at how much time you are spending taking care of other people and their tasks and problems, the time most people spend taking care of themselves equates to 2% or less. Are you worth that little? It's time to take back a little more time for yourself, for your physical and mental health... and it will not only make you happier, but more efficient and effective at all your other duties and responsibilities.

In our first episode to air in 2021, I want to first wish you nothing but success for the year ahead. Second, I want to spend a few minutes talking about why I feel it is important to set a vision forward. In 202, for the first time in my life, I set a clear vision for what I wanted my life to look like in all domains: Faith, Fitness, Finances, and Family. Why was this significant? It gave me clarity, hope, direction, and purpose... and it can do the same for you.

Growing up playing sports, there was always a clear winner and a clear loser. Simple. Where things get complicated and messy is in the game of life. What constitutes a win? What constitutes a loss? The question I have for you is, are you willing to accept the challenge?

What does it mean to have a beginner's mind? It means that no matter what you already know or how much experience you have, you show up with an open mind, fully receptive to new information. Think about how coming into every situation, conversation, meeting, or client interaction with a "beginner's mind" can benefit you. This mentality will keep you open and receptive to new perspectives and ideas. This open, curious mindset will help you learn more effectively, connect better with people, and see new opportunities, solutions, and possibilities more often.

As we come off Thanksgiving and dive deep into the Holiday Season, it is hard not to talk about guilt. I am specifically talking about the guilt around the food we eat this time of year. How do we strike a balance between enjoying ourselves with family and friends versus doing what is right for our bodies? How do we know when we shouldn't feel guilty about eating rich food and sweets? ...and how do we take valid guilt and transform it into something productive: motivation and action toward our physical fitness.
