The Canadian Council of the Blind Podcast

Goodbye to an awesome 2017!!!   Hello to the potential and promise of 2018.  In this episode Ryan reflects a bit on his own 2017 personally, professionally and shares some tips and secrets to setting you up for the best year ever..in 2018!

 

Go into this holiday season with hope and motivation to set and reach all your goals in 2018.

As the holidays approach we redefine what "weight" means and give you a better perspective on what the number on the scale means.  We also talk about the "F" word.....Failure.

Learning what "failure" is or isn't...

Episode 9 touches on the stressor most of us feel this time of year....fat, calories, weight loss and the new year's hangover...  take a listen, take a bit of knowledge away from this, then let's figure out a plan that works best for you!!

Tis the season for a lot of exciting things happening within the health and fitness program.

Also it tis the season to remember to lend an ear to those who may be struggling through a great time or year, but possibly a tough time of year for some.

It never seems too terribly productive to day dream about "what if i were not blind?".  Yes we all do dream of the day when blindness is cured but we ultimatley strive to focus on our day to day pursuit of an awesome life.

 

In this episode however, we discuss one time when asking the question "what if I were not blind?" can give you an example of why we need to shift our focus from "limited" to "limitless".

A little bit of insight into where Ryan's brain goes this time of year..try and follow along!!!

It's not about what you have, it's about who you are.  This is true in life especially around Christmas time, but also a valid point regarding your journey into health and fitness.

We discuss the need for local champions to keep the motivation high, also about not reinventing the wheel.

We also examine barriers and when they are truly things that stop you or whether they are perhaps......"excuses".  Food for thought.

In this episode we talk S.M.A.R.T. goals and how goal setting is a huge key to success in your journey of health and fitness.

We also talk "no pain, no gain",  sweating and shortness of breath...you may be surprised on what you hear.

In this episode Ryan outlines the F.I.T.T. principle, which is a general template used to guide you thourgh your physical activity journey.  This is a great overview to give you an idea of how to apply the principle to yourself, and hopefully motivates you to reach out for more personalized guideance from Ryan.

 

Have a listen...enjoy!
