| 0:00.0 | What's the problem that I'm worried about? |
| 0:02.1 | Why is that problem a problem? |
| 0:04.7 | Why is that problem a problem? |
| 0:08.1 | And isn't really a problem. |
| 0:09.9 | And then just talk yourself through it. |
| 0:13.3 | What is up and welcome back to the FitBiz podcast. |
| 0:16.8 | So I'm really excited to share a very short tactical episode today that's going to help you get out of your own way. |
| 0:25.3 | So today I'm going to teach a little framework about how to stop yourself when you're in a spiral. |
| 0:31.3 | And let me explain what I mean by spiral and the last time this happened to me. |
| 0:35.6 | So the last time this happened to me, I was in Cancun |

| 1:16.5 | that's like one question to ask yourself is where am I? But anyway, that's not part of the framework. |
| 1:21.4 | So anyway, I'm sitting and laying here and as soon as I lay down, as soon as my head it hits the pillow, I just start spiraling over this business |
| 1:28.0 | problem. And it's the same thing, and I just keep thinking about it over and over and over and over. |
| 1:33.2 | It had to do with a team member and a message that I read and just something that I was worried about. |
