Why Progress Needs Pain Part #3: Coach Taylor on Embracing Pain at Age 20
It’s easy to buy into the idea that progress should happen quickly. We’re constantly sold the belief that change happens in a few weeks, goals can be achieved by next month, or millions of dollars can be made by the end of the year. While there are certainly outliers that anybody and everybody can point to for support of these beliefs, you must remember that they are called outliers for a reason.The truth of the matter is, progress takes time. And in that time, it’s very likely you’ll have to go through some pain. Now, that doesn’t mean you’ll go through physical pain, per se (although, if you’re talking about exercise, that’s exactly what you’ll go through). For most people, most of the time, it’s the mental pain that we strive to avoid. And it’s that exact pain that we NEED if we’re going to make progress in anything.That’s the truth. Progress needs pain. It needs discomfort. It’s need effort. And it needs time. Progress doesn’t happen overnight. But it does happen…if you allow it to. That’s what we’ll be trying to figure out during this series… what we can do to move away from the belief that progress happens quickly and towards the belief that the effort is where the magic lies.In this episode I talk with Thriveology Fitness Coach, Taylor McGrath. While Taylor is a spry 25 year old, she is, as she likes to say, an old soul in a young body. She’s also made some significant changes in her life, starting at around 19 years old. Which is hard to believe, because we THINK that 19 year olds shouldn’t know any better. But what you’ll find is, at least for this youngster, sometimes we should follow the example of those we don’t expect.In this episode (Part #3) we talk about:
The 2 events that caused Taylor to re-evaluate her life’s path
How Taylor went from smoking and partying to Fitness Coach in 5 years
What drives Taylor to keep making changes in her life
How Taylor uses PURPOSE to keep her motivated
So much more…
