As you get older, you hopefully mature. You get better at your finances, relationships, your career. Why are you still training your body the same? That stuff you did in your 20s and 30s wasn’t good for you back then. You were just young enough to take the punishment. Now…not so much. If you feel stagnate in progress in your body, feel frustrated, or have or are starting to have pain and immobility, congratulations, your body is communicating to you it needs something different. It’s time to mature into a more holistic way of caring for yourself, leading to longevity.

👉🏽 Once I do “x,” I’ll do “y.”

👉🏽 Things are a little chaotic right now, “X” will be a better time

👉🏽 This works for my schedule now

These statements are fear disguising itself as practicality. It is a conditioned response to keep you in perceived ease and comfort. The pull of ease and comfort is strong. Like Death Start, gravity ray strong. 😂

It makes total sense to you in your head. So you chalk it up to being logical. But it’s not logical. It’s an emotion that wants to keep you where you are, promising ease and flow, but it’s anything but.

We all have an innate desire to grow to blossom if you will. And along with that desire to grow comes fear. Nobody is immune to this, and it is totally normal. 

To grow = to push out of your comfort zone. 👊🏽

To move out of your comfort zone = the unknown. 😱

The unknown triggers the emergency button of your ego, and “poof,” it wakes up and starts to take over. It hijacks you, and you begin to identify with it, and you think all those thoughts and feelings are you, and now you are running on auto piolet away from how your soul wants to grow.

But it will feel at the time like it is the prudent thing to do. But look back on your life. Do you see a pattern of “practical” decisions that have stopped you from moving forward?

More than likely, yes! Well, that is a conditioned fear response, my friend. And each time you went along with it, you stopped your growth and strengthened the response.

This post is for everybody. I am very driven, but I also see this in my life. I choose to consciously choose my life and grow into the uncomfortableness of growth because not allowing my soul to expand is more torturous than any fear presented as real and practical.

We’re all taught as children to keep our word to others, right? To mean what we say – and to follow up when we tell someone we’re going to do something for them.

This also applies to keeping the promises we make to ourselves. And they’re just as crucial to living a successful life and feeling content.

Breaking promises to ourselves is one of the main reasons people fail to reach goals and feel bad about themselves.

• You swear you won’t eat and drink that much again – but Friday Happy Hour rolls around and you do.

• You tell yourself that you’ll find a routine that is better for your body– but then you go back to what you know.

• You promise yourself that you’re going to put a certain amount of money into a savings account out of each paycheck – but you keep forgetting.

The result is the same in each case: You feel terrible about yourself AND you don’t make progress toward your goal.

Here are some tips to break the cycle.

Personal integrity is a powerful concept in helping you live the life you want and deserve. But it’s also something we practice by words, thoughts, and actions every day. Just do it.

I believe in you!

It’s not just working out, it’s building a foundation for a better life.
