Everyone is always looking for the key to everything.  Success, losing weight, getting fit, making money, whatever it is I believe there is one thing that is THE key to success in all of it, and that is taking action!  I know, many of you are saying  "Duh, no kidding you have to take action!"  But there's more to that, and that is what we are going to talk about in this episode of the Rise With You!

This episode is also a video on my YouTube channel, so if you would like to see the video version, just click HERE!

With all of the information on the internet at our fingertips it is extremely easy to overwhelm yourself.  You seek out "experts" to learn what to do and how to do it, and they all have their own unique way.  They say you must have a blog and website, a YouTube channel, podcast, be on all of the social media platforms, and put out content for all of them.

The problem is, if you are like me, you are doing this by yourself, as a side-gig or choose to be just you.  You can't do all of those things and do them all at the level you need to succeed.  We are still in the learning process as well, which takes up a lot of time.

We have already touched on doing what is right for you, and today we talk about keeping things simple, not stressing, drowning out the guru chatter, and owning the things we do focus on.  We will worry about the other stuff later, when you are ready, and not before.

It's all about quality over quantity and keeping it simple!

We all have heard that we should set goals, whether they are fitness, financial, career, or anything else, we should have goals set and targets to aim for.  I have had many goals during my life, but I haven't achieved many of them because I had no plan on how I was going to do it!  It's like deciding to take a road trip across the country with no GPS or map.  You can't get there from here!

This episode is also a video on my YouTube channel that will be live on 8/19/2020.  Be sure you SUBSCRIBE to my channel so you get all of the content that comes out!  Fitness and martial arts-related content is visual and will be on YouTube, so be sure to subscribe and share this podcast and the channel with others you think may benefit.  

So now, let's talk about the importance of creating a plan to reach your goals and achieve the life you dream of!

If you are thinking about beginning a journey, whether it is in fitness, health, business, whatever, you will probably spend time researching how to best go about accomplishing it.  You will come across many "experts" telling you their way is the best and greatest, but I don't want you to listen to all of the noise.

I want you to listen to your heart and what will make you happy.  What YOU would enjoy doing and what you think will work for YOU.  No matter what your journey entails, you need to find YOUR way, what works, for YOU, with the main goal being YOUR happiness.

Welcome to the Rise With You podcast!  In this inaugural episode host, Kevin Putala gives you a look at his journey and why at 54 he decided enough was enough and that it was time to take back control of his health, fitness, wealth, and life to create the future he and his wife desire and deserve.  Kevin shares his journey, his successes, failures, what works and what doesn't to inspire, encourage, and help older adults get back in the game, set goals, and create an active and abundant life!
