If you've been around for a while you by now that our know our mission is to:
𝘌𝘙𝘈𝘋𝘐𝘊𝘈𝘛𝘌 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘠𝘖-𝘠𝘖 𝘋𝘐𝘌𝘛 𝘍𝘙𝘖𝘔 𝘌𝘟𝘐𝘚𝘛𝘌𝘕𝘊𝘌!!! 

Because we've all felt the yo-yo struggle, whether its dieting, work productivity, or home life...

The to-do list that is life can be a serious struggle!! 

You've heard us say it before, "Just focus on ONE thing at a time," right?

So today we're just focusing one thing: personal wellness.

 - The ALL OR NOTHING dynamic
- The myth of multitasking
- How to stay ON the ball

Do you try to take on too many things at once? 

>>> If LIFE is something you've tried to master, this one is for you!

Ps. If you want to see Brandon attack Nick's packing methods, you'll wanna listen in.

Have you ever set out to achieve something, had a really strong start, and then failed to finish? 

We've all been there, I can promise you that. The problem is we are chasing something that is literally unacheivable.... 

Nothing inhibits progress or thwarts success like the trap of perfectionism.

And while we've touched on this before, we want to take a deeper dive into how we mentally justify this tendency and what it really is. 

Today we'll talk a little bit about:

- The lie of perfectionism
- Changing our mindset around perfectionism and failure
- Outthinking your inner bully

Have you held yourself to such a high standard that you throw in the towel when you can't meet it???

"What am I doing wrong?!?!?"  

Last week we covered 2 of the most common mistakes  people make when trying to lose weight.

And today we'll talk about two MORE of the BIG MISTAKES that we see when people are really trying but not getting the results they want. 

A couple of the big questions we want to address today:

 - "Is a calorie is a calorie, and it doesn't matter where it comes from?"

 - "No pain, no gain. The harder I work, the better the results, right?"

Have you wondered about either of these things in your life?

Today we'll talk a little bit about:

 - The sacrifices we tend to make that don't pay off
 - What DOES work?

Have you sacificed a food you love in order to lose weight in the past???

At this point I hope a lot of you understand that lifestyle changes are KEY to increasing overall health! Mentally and physically!

We know that the food we ingest can greatly affect the way we feel physically:

We can feel  sleepy.
We can feel  full.
We can feel  excited.

But it’s often overlooked how our food choices can also drastically change the way we feel and behave!! 

So today!

 - Body Food = brain food
 - How food affects how you feel and behave
 - What it means for YOU 

Oh and FYI - your brain NEEDS carbs!

"I've tried every diet ever."

Between Nick and myself, we really don't know how many times we've heard this, but it's a LOT.

What I want you to do today is give up. That's right; GIVE UP on the idea of dieting. 

Today we'll talk a little bit about:

 What our bodies are designed to do and not do

 What it is about dieting that is destined to fail

Have you ever tried one of the fad diets and couldn't figure out why its working or why your results haven't STAYED??
