April News & Notes

This was sent to me last week by a long-time mentor of mine
Coach Mark Divine (Ret. Navy Seal):

Many people resonate with Gandhi’s quote, “You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”

What do you think the most important word in that sentence is?

Be.

A lot of us focus on doing, especially when we set goals.

That is useful and appropriate.

But it’s crucial to pay as much, if not more, attention to how we want to be in the world.

So think about it.

How do you want to BE?

Even though your goals will take time to achieve, start BEING that person right now.

“By three methods we may learn wisdom:
First, by reflection, which is noblest;
Second, by imitation, which is easiest;
and third by experience, which is the bitterest.”
— Confucius

Good Stuff Worth Reading...

Goals Fizzle, Habits Win

Many people fall short of their goals — whether fitness, nutrition, personal, or professional — because they focus too much on the finish line and not enough on the journey.

This is why New Year’s resolutions fizzle. This is why so many people fall short of their fitness and nutrition goals. This is why that body composition goal you’re aiming for always seems to evade you.

It can be a lot more powerful to focus on habits instead of setting lofty long-term goals because habits are something you have control over today. So instead of focusing on that finish line you may or may not get to, focus instead on the habits that will get you closer to that goal.

Once you get through today, do it again tomorrow, and then the day after that until you get a streak going. And if you miss a day, jump right back and focus on consistency over perfection.

That’s how you build habits and that’s how you build progress.
