Be Relentless Podcast Monday Quick Hit 07 – It’s Ok To Feel Miserable

be relentless podcast monday quick hit 07 - it's ok to feel miserableSo many gurus of the self-help business want you to control your feelings by controlling your thoughts.

That’s all well and good, but the problem comes up when they ask you to mask your feelings with thinking nothing but happy thoughts.

The truth is that we move away from pain and towards pleasure.  However, the drive to move towards pleasure is often not as strong as moving away from pain.  It’s actually pretty easy to get stuck at a low level of pleasure because it’s better than pain.  If we mask our pain and just seek out pleasure, then often times we’ll miss our big goal because we get sidetracked along the way.

Feel the pain that pushes and moves you.  It’s ok to feel it.  Just feel it and use it to never feel it again.

Be Relentless Podcast Episode 19 – Overcoming Inertia and Creating Change

be relentless podcast episode 19 overcoming inertia and creating changeIt’s hard as hell to get a train moving from a standstill.

They’re heavy and it requires a LOT of energy.

Your life is the same way.  If you’re feeling stuck then it’s hard to overcome that inertia.

However, once you DO get the train rolling, then it takes far less energy to keep it moving or to steer it in different directions.

Again, your life is just like the train when it comes to creating change.  Once you start the change process then it’s easier to hit the next day and to fine-tune your progress.

I’m going to go over the process that I use with clients as well as what I’ve used to create a powerful change in my own life.

We’ll cover:

-Why I want you to take a quick look at where you are now but not too long before you start creating change.

-The right and wrong types of goals to set and how you’ve probably learned the wrong way.

-The eating the elephant style of action and my embarrassing story.

-The three methods I like the most for keeping Big Mo (momentum) going.

-What inevitable part of a successful journey you need to watch out for and how to come out the other side.
