0:00.0	Welcome to the Cabral Concept, where board certified doctor of naturopathy, Dr. Stephen Cabral,
0:05.8	shares with you exactly how you can reverse aging, take back your health, and live a life full of energy and passion,
0:12.7	with new 20-minute episodes every single day to keep you healthy and engaged. Now, here's your host, Dr. Stephen Cabral.
0:38.8	Hey, everybody, welcome back to the show. Can't wait to get into today's mindset and motivation Monday. One of my favorite topics to speak on, and that is sticking to your plan and not your mood. One of my favorite quotes, and I've got a lot of great quotes for you here today. If you'd like quotes, you're going to love this episode here today.
0:46.3	It's that emotions are real, but not reliable when it comes to executing on a long-term plan.
0:53.3	And I'm going to share all the different reasons why here today, but you have to understand is that our willpower and our emotions are awaiting.
0:55.9	Sometimes we feel good. Sometimes we feel energetic.
1:02.6	Sometimes we feel emotionally ready to take that next step. And then there are also going to be times when we aren't.
1:13.9	And the way that we ultimately then get to our goals without having to rely on willpower, inspiration, motivation, or positive emotions is by discipline. Discipline is the follow-through. Discipline is the thing that enables us to get our stuff together when we
1:21.0	don't necessarily feel like it. Right. So I'm going to go through all those different items here
1:24.3	today. The first one, maybe the most important, is that you decide once
1:28.0	and only once, but you execute daily. So when you set up your 12-week gear, and if you've never
1:33.3	heard about that before, I'll link that show up for you here today at stephencabral.com
1:37.3	slash 3433. But you only decide once, once you've visualized your future, once you have your
1:43.5	why as to why you want to achieve a certain thing that brings you fulfillment, your family fulfillment, provides a service to others, once it's been decided, that is something important to you, and you've scheduled it backwards, this is the next 12 weeks, then all you need to do is say, yes, I am ready today. I'm going to make this happen.
2:02.4	You schedule it, you make it happen. And that is your decision. From then on, it's just about
2:07.2	execution. So if you built it into your calendar, which I'll talk about just as a recap towards
2:12.0	the end of the show, it's done. So now it is the discipline to follow you through, not whether
2:17.3	you want to or not.
2:19.2	So this is a great one.
2:20.4	I love this quote as well, is that athletes don't feel like training every day, but champions
2:25.6	show up, right?
