Becoming The Hero

TM: 67: Finished DEAD Week, Write Goals Daily, Audit the Examples Around You & Counting Calories


Listen Later

Welcome to the 67th episode of the Thursday Meditations Show!

The goal of the thursday show is to show you our journey to hopefully help inspire you and hopefully help you relate more.

As well, we are now on Youtube! Check us out there!

Today we start off the show talking about the challenge Ty gave me 2 weeks ago.

Ty challenged me to run a sprint triathlon and to create an investment plan. I completed both and they were very difficult. 

Before we talk about that, let’s talk about the DEAD Week challenge. Ty and I both had a hard time and we found that it pushed us more than we thought it would. It was great for that reason. 

One of the things that kept me going was the saying from Anel Bester (on episode 43 of the podcast) where she says, “If your body says you can’t run 1 more step, and you do, your body is lying.” I used that phrase to get me through the sprint triathlon.

As far as my investment plan, I tried to keep it very simple which is important.

Next we talk about the action items given to us from this last week’s podcast guest, Hans Struzyna (episode 73).

The action items are:

Write goals daily

Get on an exercise regimen

Audit the people around you

Lastly, Ty gave me the new challenge of counting calories for 1 week and then living on a calorie deficit for the next week.

It was a great conversation and it helped show that Ty and I are human and doing things is hard. That hopefully will motivate you to get started doing hard things no matter how scared, nervous or whatever you are. Just do it.

Hey, there adventurer!

I appreciate you taking the time to do an investigation check and dig into the archives of the show. I want you to know that this is an old episode back when the show was called The Hard Thing Podcast. The topics are still the same, though the format and some of the names are different. If you’re coming back to The Hard Thing Podcast, well surprise! We changed our name and some of our branding. Feel free to hang out in the archives and listen to the wonderful old episode of the Hard Thing Podcast, or take on a new adventure by listening to some of our current episodes. Either way, happy adventuring.
