| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, Chris Gethen here and this is the Knowledge and Mileage Podcast. |
| 0:05.7 | This isn't going to be too long. |
| 0:07.3 | I won't waste too much of your time. |
| 0:09.3 | It's a Sunday here and I just spent about two and a half hours out on the bike trainer |
| 0:15.9 | because I have to stay quite static at the moment, can't go out on a road because of my post shoulder surgery will prevent me from putting too much weight onto the handlebar. |
| 0:26.8 | So two and a half hours out in the heat, I'm done. |
| 0:29.4 | I want to chill. |

| 1:22.6 | I can see pretty much straight away why they haven't even sniffed any success. |
| 1:29.3 | Because none of these people are willing to sacrifice, so of course none of them have made any sacrifices. |
| 1:36.3 | It's life, kiddos. You have to make a lot of hard sacrifices if you want to reach success. So I'm going to go through a quick |
| 1:46.3 | list that I put together of some things that you can possibly do, some baby steps, in order for |
| 1:54.5 | you to create more sacrifices in order to make that success. Because if you are somebody that's been hardwired by your mother by your father where they've done everything for you |
