Thermostat or thermometer?

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/25

Thermostats and thermometers both deal with temperature yet have very different functions.One just tells you what the temperature is while the other sets the temperature for the room. You have a choice in which one you are.But be careful. You can be the freezer or the heater. Are you the one bringing the room down or lifting them up? Energy is contagious, so be sure it's the right energy.No excuses!

Hope on a timeline

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/24

Hope is very powerful. It can both elevate you or destroy you. The difference is in the timeline you attach it to.If the window is tight and linked to an expectation, then it can destroy you. It might even break you so badly that you give up on life. And that's not hyperbole.Yet if you tie it to a brighter future knowing there will be an unknown volume of pain between now and then, that same hope can drive you through anything.No excuses!

Feedback isn't fatal

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/23

Feedback is scary. It hurts your feelings, and you might need to admit you were wrong or need to improve.Wait, why are you afraid of that? How else are you going to improve? How else are you going to figure out what you need to work on to level up?Nobody is perfect. So why be afraid to learn how to improve? You should always be learning, growing, and developing. The only way to do this is through feedback. Stop fearing it and start seeking it out!No excuses!

Once you learn how to practice non judgemental analysis of yourself, you can really take things to the next level.This is why I weigh myself every day. It gives me insight into how my body is doing. The more consistent you are with your routines, the more consistent the numbers should be.If the numbers change quite a bit regularly, then something you're doing or eating is not being processed by your body well. If they are consistent, then changes indicate something else for you to identify and learn

Do it anyway

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/21

Find a way to get it done. Don't let perfect continue to be the enemy of done. You can find a way when you let go of the thought it has to be great every time.Hurt, tired, sore... doesn't matter. There's some version of progress you can still accomplish. Can't bear weight on a foot or leg? Then try biking, one foot jump rope, or use a hand bike. Arms or shoulders are the problem? Run, walk, or ruck.This isn't just about physical tasks, either. The same applies to your learning or whatever other task

Feelings aren't facts

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/20

Feelings aren't facts. I've said it before, and I'll say it again.I "felt" gross today. I "felt" sore. I "felt" like I wasn't going to be able to start my race, let alone finish it. Even after I started, I "felt" like I might need to drop out.Then I told myself to take one more step and see. Then I ran a little. Walked a little. Completed an obstacle. Then started that process over. Eventually, I knew I would finish, even if it was ugly.I didn't need that race. But I committed, and giving up without

Change your mind, change your life!

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/19

It starts in the mind first. I keep saying it because it's the truth.Until you change the way you think and the way you talk to yourself, nothing will change in the long term.A simple shift in how I saw myself allowed me to change my habits to match that new identity. Then, it was about aligning my actions with that. I didn't start out great, but I started. Then, I kept improving and building the mental skills to push through the new adversity I encountered. Bit by bit, you transform your entire

It starts in the mind

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/18

Hacks don't work, especially in the long term. That's because they never address the real problem.You are the problem. Get over it. It's the truth. You go through life believing what others have taught you, and you never question where that information came from or if it was ever true.You need to develop the mental skills to be curious, disciplined, and structured. You need to set high standards. You need to learn how to develop habits. You can do it, and I can teach you.No excuses!

Plan to fail?

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/17

You don't like to fail. I get that. You don't live when things go wrong. Again, I get that. But the real reason it sucks? Because you only planned for perfect.When you plan contingencies, even when things don't work out, you are able to move through the emotions quickly. You can get back to neutral and be productive quicker.That's because planning for the inevitable failure helps you become more prepared for anything that comes your way. When you only plan for perfect, you're bound to be

No prodigies, just work!

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/16

The idea of a prodigy sounds amazing. It gives you an automatic excuse to not be great at things. Except they don't exist.That's according to Anders Ericsson, who studied these figures for decades. The thing he found was that every single one was trained at an early age with someone who kept them interested and learning.We all have the ability to do great things. We've just been lied to by those not willing to put in the work. By the people who were taught you were either born with it or you don't

Initial stress phase

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/15

You can learn a lot from exercise that translates over to real life. I've known this concept in different contexts in the past, but my run revealed another way of explaining it.When you first start your run, every time you go through that initial amping up period, followed by a quick crash of tired and exhaustion. That's your body believing you're in danger and running from a predator.If you can calm your breathing, you will catch a rhythm to stay steady for much longer. This is the same for all

ABC's of habit change

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/14

Anchor, behavior, celebrate. This is the ABC's of habit change. If you can get this down, installing new habits becomes easy.First, anchor your new habit to an action you currently do. Like putting your workout clothes next to the sink you brush your teeth at or your journal next to the coffee machine.Next, complete the behavior. Finally, do some kind of celebration to build in a reward for doing the new habit. It doesn't need to be big, just something for your brain to get excited!No excuses!

How to alter habits

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/13

Changing habits isn't complicated. But there are two main ways to get the job done. If you're not successful with habit changes in the past, maybe this can help!You can either add a habit you want that takes the place of a habit you don't. Or, you can remove a habit that you don't and allow a new or different habit to fill that space.Seems like the same thing? It's not. One, you focus on not doing a thing. The other you focus on doing something new. Both are useful, but you might be better at one

Use your time wisely

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/12

How often do you waste time because you think you need to be perfect? Or maybe you expect everything to run smoothly and hope your schedule doesn't get moved.But that's just not reality. Schedules change. Results don't always match. And the more you need to rely on someone else as part of your schedule, the less you can count that as certain.You do, however, have the ability to fill in gaps. Take advantage of early schedule shifts to fill in with tasks or habits that tend to get pushed. It doesn't

Adjust your fear

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/11

People often skip out on their dreams because they fear failure. They think they can't handle the rejection.But what if you switched that? What if you no longer feared failure? It's not giving up fears in general, but switching what you fear.Fear not trying. Switch your fear to not knowing what might have been. Failure is part of the process. You fail whether you try or not. So you might as well try.No excuses!

Fit your routines around...

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/10

Find a way to fit in your routines. They might not look quite the same, but you can find a way to get things in.You get caught up in the idea that these things need to be complicated. That they need to be perfect or look exactly the same as you planned it out.That's why you get "stressed" and keep skipping things. Because you believe this lie that perfect is the only way. If that's the case for you, you're fragile, not adaptable.No excuses!

Do you have discipline?

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/08

Building unshakable discipline starts in the mind. You have to build the thought structure and belief system that doesn't allow for that weak deviation.You build it through setting your identity. What do you see for yourself in the future? What is that goal, or how do you want to be remembered?Start there and create the habits that will carry you to be that person. Then, stick to the plan regardless of what is going on around you. Find a way!No excuses!

It's about mental skills

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/10/08

At the highest levels, you have people talking about mental skills. If Nick Saban believes in these skills, why are you still on the fence?If you can't put your focus and attention where it needs to be in high-pressure moments, it's because you failed to train these skills.Your mind can be one of your greatest assets or biggest opponents. You have total control over which one you allow it to be. You either train it to be locked in, or it locks you out when you need it most.This is what I train you

Control your mind, or fall victim to it

2025/10/07

Control your mind, or it will control you. It really is that simple. The difference between winning and losing regularly comes down to who can overcome their emotions more.Mike Tyson said it this way, everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face. This is what he was talking about. People plan for perfection and crumble when it doesn't come.But you can change that. You can learn the skills to overcome your internal objections. You can learn the skill of operating in less than ideal
