Why You’re Compelled to Seek Personal Growth. 🚀
Growth and movement are good things. You bet! They’re even totally NATURAL. In fact, they’re absolutely essential elements of life.
So, it’s only natural to seek personal growth as we move forward. We’re as much a part of nature as anything else.
Well, that’s true for those with a growth mindset. I’d say that covers roughly half the people I know – including people like you, who are seeking paths to improvement.
I’ve noticed a funny thing about people like us with this “growth mindset.” Once we walk one path of improvement, go through a learning process, or reach a goal… Well, we start off with another one!
We know that GETTING something at the end of the journey isn’t the only value.
We know that the journey itself is at least half the attraction. We are naturally curious. We like to improve ourselves. We are not afraid of change, not so worried that it freezes us in place.
The other half? Well, they’re of a “fixed” mindset. Absent curiosity. Unwilling to change. Maybe even afraid to try something new.
For them, success means trying to stay still and hoping nothing wrong happens.
But guess what? LIFE HAPPENS!
You and I know it, or we wouldn’t be communicating with each other. We don’t just accept that fact about life. We embrace it.
When you crave self-improvement, you’re more engaged with the world, other people, and yourself. You’re more inquisitive, more accepting, and less likely to be pushed around – because you’re confident enough to go with the flow when necessary. You seek challenges and opportunities to grow.
It’s your nature, after all!
So it’s understandable that you are feeling frustrated with your progress or lack thereof in your workouts.
👉🏽 Little(or big) pains in your body.
👉🏽 Not performing like you want to.
👉🏽 Getting frustrated that you think you are on the cutting edge of training, but the results differ from what you expected.
And that fact that your body and the little voice inside you keep yelling “STUCK” and you are still shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic is only compounding the situation. (Only a slight exaggeration). 😉
It’s not your desire and dedication that is in question; it’s your view and knowledge on how to work with your body that is off.
It’s not totally your fault. It’s how we have been taught.

And if you keep bouncing around trying to piece together a holistic program when the pieces don’t fit, you will end up in a different place.😵💫
You keep moving forward when you work with a philosophy that all these stretches, exercises, and treatments are under and work with how the body is designed.

Self-Awareness Is Key to Success and Happiness
It’s so easy to feel overwhelmed by what’s happening in the world and your life, by all the people you encounter, and by all the stuff happening around you.
You can really lose yourself sometimes. And not being aware of yourself and how you operate is a surefire way to self-sabotage yourself with any challenging task. 100% guaranteed.
But a strong self-awareness keeps you grounded with a healthy perspective. It keeps you in the right mindset to succeed and to maintain happiness. In fact, some experts say it’s one of the most important characteristics we can develop.
Simply put, self-awareness means have a good understanding of your emotions, values, patterns of behavior, and how others see you.
It means you appreciate what you bring to the table, and what others see when you get there.
And it allows you to understand what you want and then match your actions to your desires in healthy, productive ways.
Being self-aware lets you focus on what really matters, despite the hurricane of life happening around you. When you truly understand and appreciate who you are, why you do what you do, then you have clarity to see through the maelstrom to what’s important. It also lets you help other people more effectively, because you’re certain of your intentions and the effect you have (and DON’T have) on them.
how do you develop it?
True self-awareness has layers that can take a lifetime to understand. But generally speaking, here are some guidelines to get you thinking in the right direction.
👉🏽 Know what you want, based on your gut and on your values.
👉🏽 Learn from your mistakes and forgive yourself for them.
👉🏽Seek constructive criticism from well-chosen sources who can help.
👉🏽 Identify your top skills and, just as importantly, those you lack.
👉🏽Reflect daily on what you’ve done and how you feel about it. 👉🏽 Look for patterns in your words, thoughts, and actions(this is a big one).
Now, think for a moment about all of this — your healthy lifestyle goals, strengths, weaknesses, and patterns of behavior…

How To Bust Overwhelm.👊🏽
Do you ever start the week feeling overwhelmed by everything you have to do in the days ahead?
Between work and family commitments, it seems like you won’t have time to to the workouts you have planned. 🤯(I feel you.)
That’s the worst. Been there, done that and still doing…😂(I feel you.)
You gotta do what ya gotta do for work and family. You can make a habit of leaving work and home, and that definitely helps, but you gotta be there for your family. And the two combined can sometimes leave you with not as much time as you wish for your workouts.
The best way to keep yourself moving forward and work with the time you’ve got is to:
👉🏽 Know what your ultimate goal is with your workouts. No, “being fit or strong” doesn’t qualify. It’s the WHY that you want to flesh out.
👉🏽 Know the most important things that you should be doing and work from the most important to the least.
But I’m a big believer in making lists to stay organized. And I noticed a big pressure relief when I started using a daily/weekly checklist for my most important exercises and stretches.
Then you look at your weekly and daily times to fit it in. Ideally, you have a minimum of a 3-day-a-week schedule that you are getting at least an hour in and a little in between of your most pressing issue/goal.
I call it Macro and microprogramming
This way, I will do a few things every day and week that I know will move me forward.
But as busy people we know, the ideal doesn’t always happen, so you have to be adaptable because we know our WHY and know that we need to do something about it.
Here is an example of what I do: I set up my schedule for Wed, Saturday, and Sunday big routines. Hopefully 1 1/2 to two hours. This allows me to get a proper warm-up, cardio (as a warm-up or routine), strengthening and stretching, and a cool own of myofascial stretching, ELDOA, and some GPS (global postural stretching)
On the other days, I hope to get 20 min of myofascial stretching, ELDAO, or GPS. This sometimes happens during the weekday, but more often than not in front of the TV at night.
But as Mike Tyson says, “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face.😂” So when I get punched in the face, I adapt.
✅What is the most pressing thing I need to do? For me right now, my ribcage.
✅Ok, how much time do I have?
✅ Ok, work from the top of the most important things to do.
It’s not so much when you break it down daily. This leaves you feeling accomplished; your body feels good and moves toward your goal
