if I'm fat and unhealthy and out of shape and sleep in and play video games and don't reach for

success and don't personally develop and don't read books and don't tell my wife she's beautiful

and lover in front of my daughter and all these things. Whatever your kids watch becomes the

norm. And so if you just follow society's norm, that becomes their norm. Look at society's norm

and ask yourself, do you think that's acceptable? Do you think that's the best way to live? Welcome to the Choose Hard podcast. I'm your host, Cody McBroom. I am a

father, husband, entrepreneur, and the founder of tailored coaching method, a world-renowned online

fitness and nutrition coaching company helping average people all over the world achieve above-average physiques and live

above-average lives. Today we are going to do that for the dads. This episode is for the

dads. However, I will say if you're a mom, you can probably take away some stuff from this.

This podcast specifically is going to be some strategies.

This is going to be a rapid fire straight to the point,

This is the mindset that we have to have with most things in life because at the end of the day, there's a lot of times where we don't have enough time and we feel like it's going to be subpar. So we just skip it and we decide, eh, we're to skip today.
