Summary

A lot of talk this time of year about being grateful, but do we remember what it really means? Today, some of the harsh judgements we make on ourselves and how easy it is to be unappreciative of what we have and how things are going. The guys share a couple of important stories to remind us that sometimes our truest fortune is being able to do what we're already doing.

Topics:

  • Beating that sluggish feeling
  • Being busy to be busy
  • Taking care of yourself
  • How do we feel fresh
  • Handling Thanksgiving week
  • This workout was appropriately challenging
  • Applause for working too hard?
  • Self-coaching can be walking a maze blindfolded
  • Are you afraid of saying “I don’t know?”
  • Starting from zero
  • What does grateful mean?
  • Echo Chambers
  • Measuring has become our communication

You always have access to be jealous or to be ungrateful or to see things that you feel like you need or that you just want. That's how people price things. Like every time somebody asked me if they're in like training piece, like, do I need to upgrade a premium? No, you don't need any of it. It's not priced that way because you need it. It's priced that way because people are

0:21.9

driven to want it, which is the same thing with all things. We purchase things not because we

0:27.6

inherently truly need it to live a day in and out. We just purchase it because we want it. The

0:32.7

market dictates how high that price is and the market keeps going up. Guess what? It's just more

0:37.3

of a reflection of
