Summary

I realized recently that something was off. I wasn't sleeping well, it was harder to focus, my mornings were dragging...

So, I decided to self-evaluate. What was strange was I was doing everything I always do. Exercised daily, ate right, focused on the important things, etc...then, it hit me.

I realized that recently I discovered Netflix. I told myself it was ok "I'm allowed to relax", "I work hard". But, the reality is, consuming too much television will ruin your flow state. So, I recommitted to journaling and reading at night and it has changed my life!

people that I've interviewed, people that are successful, that have achieved massive

0:19.6

success in their life. And that is their habits. They have become their habits and they all speak on my

0:26.5

podcast about how habits really do define us. But they're also human and they can get sidetracked

And I even found myself feeling more negative through the day.

So focusing on why something is not possible versus how I was

0:56.9

normally living in the idea of things are always possible, that all things are possible

1:01.3

and potential and living in vision. And I didn't really know what was going on with me.

1:06.4

In fact, I looked at my diet. I looked at how I was, you know, my other habits, like, was I still walking

1:11.9

every day? Was I still moving? And I really didn't know what exactly was off. And then it hit me.

1:16.7

It hit me. And I want to share it with you because this might be something in your gap right now.

1:28.8

thoughts, and a great mood. And I was great about not watching the news. And instead, I would read

1:35.4

regularly. I would listen to podcasts. And I was very intentional with exactly who I'm surrounding

1:40.6

myself with and learning from. And in fact, that's a big reason I started my podcast is I wanted to be interviewing people

1:47.1

that were living a leveled up life.
