The MENtal Muscle-Up Podcast: The Cure For Mental Masturbation

Send Me A Message! What's the biggest challenge you face when it comes to looking, feeling, and performing your best? Let me know and I'll show you how to MMU in an upcoming epsiode.

How are we going to make sure that 2024 is one of the best years of our lives?

I obviously can't answer that for you but for me, I know it's going to boil down to one thing above all - fulfillment of purpose.

But fulfilling your purpose means you first need to get clear on what your purpose is. In other words, what is the VISION you have for yourself and the effect you want to have on the lives of the people you love the most and/or the world as a whole?

That's what I'm going to dive into today. I hope that this MMU inspires you to Ignite the Impact you wish to see in your world.

Would you want to know if you were full of shit?

"Fine" has become a knee-jerk response for a lot of us when asked how we're doing. Much the same way, most people would say that they're happy. But are they really?

Today, we're going to trigger some folks by having them take a hard look in the mirror and see if they're wearing a mask they label as happy when, in fact, they are anything but.

What if a man's inability to say what he's feeling isn't a matter of choice but a matter of psychology?

How many men have been falsely accused of not 'opening up' by their partners? I really hope that anyone who has ever accused a man of doing that listens to this episode because it will sprinkle some much-needed compassion on a man's inability to express his emotions.

Why do most of us quit doing things we say we want to do and know we should do?

Is it a lack of willpower, discipline, or desire? I don't think so. I know that's not the case because one other simple yet powerful tip has helped me stick with habits you once upon a time couldn't pay me to do.

That's exactly what we be tackling in Day 21 of the 24 Before 2024 Challenge!

How do you keep going when life keeps knocking you down? You can't just stay down forever, and we can only structure so much in our lives before someone or something throws a wrench in our plans. 

So what do you do when shit just doesn't go as planned?

What do you do when you hit a wall and want to quit? 

Pushing through it won't work. Giving up isn't an option. So then what strategy that works wonders inside the gym can we take and use outside the gym?
