ERF 018: Mental, Physical, Emotional Progress

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Subscribe: RSS

This podcast started as a way to track progress other than the scale.

It quickly turned into a philosophical rant about the way people make decisions and think about life.

Either way, I think it is something that can help a lot of people.

The way people think controls their decision making. Their decision making then controls their outcome. 

To get a better outcome, you would first have to focus on the thought and decision making process. 

This is what this podcast does.

It is a bit different, so please let me know if you found it enjoyable and or interesting and or stop trying to be a philanthropist Eric.

Talk soon, -E.

ERF Q&A 014: How To Break A Bad Habit?

How Can You Mentally Finally Break A Bad Habit?

So much of this fitness stuff goes into how we think, how we behave, how we make decisions.

If you can’t get yourself to mentally be there, then the physical results won’t follow.

Breaking a bad habit comes down to a few things.

1️⃣ Being aware of it.

Most peoples egos don’t let them be aware that they are truly making a bad decision.

And even if they are, they don’t want to admit it really is that bad or that they could get it under control if they really wanted to..(then why haven’t they done it yet?)

2️⃣ Stop making excuses to justify you continuing your bad habit and continuously not doing what you know is right.

3️⃣ Don’t be afraid to fail at trying. Most people are afraid of even STARTING to take steps towards breaking their bad habit, because they think if they mess up one time then they can’t do it.

Or they failed.

You didn’t fuck up and you didn’t fail. It will take time.

But as long as you put in the effort, stay consistent, and be real with yourself, I promise you will end up in a good place.

Let me know what you think, and reach out if you are struggling with one. Sometimes just getting someones else opinion, and getting out of your own head, can help. Talk soon.
