Welcome to the Cabral concept, where board certified doctor of naturopathy, Dr. Stephen Cabral,

shares with you exactly how you can reverse aging, take back your health, and live a life

full of energy and passion with new 20-minute episodes every single day to keep you healthy and

engaged. Now, here's your host, Dr. Stephen Cabral.

One of my favorite quotes that I continue to go back to is this. You don't get the life you want. You get the life you tolerate. Now, at first, that hits you like a ton of bricks, and it's a very bitter pill to swallow. But if you stay with me

and you start to peel back this onion, you'll begin to understand is that when you're frustrated

with your life, you're frustrated with your results, it's not because there's an issue with your goals.

Your goals are almost always okay. The issue is with the standards that we've

set for ourselves as to how we are living that simply doesn't match the goals that we want

to achieve. Stick with me for just a minute. I want to share with you this. Is that our goals

don't necessarily change our lives. So when we set a big goal,

we get excited for a moment, no doubt about it. But it doesn't change our day to day, right?

Setting the goal is amazing. That's what we want to do. We want to always strive, we want to grow.

I truly believe that human beings do well when they feel like they're growing.

There's an excitement to life. There's a reason to get up in the morning. We all need that no matter

what age we are. And everyone has goals, but few people change their daily behavior long enough.

Let's go into those New Year's goals, right? When we have a New Year's goal, change the behavior, we stick with it, then all of a sudden work comes up, kids come up, something comes up, and then we start to lay off a little bit, right? And then a little bit more, a little bit more. What changed wasn't our goal, if it was important to us, what change was our daily behavior. And that's really what I want to share

with you today because goals or wishes, but standards are rules that we live by. So what is actually

a standard? If it's not something that you're kind of fully familiar with, a standard is what you

tolerate on a daily basis. So it shows up in your habits, your boundaries, and your excuses. And your calendar

reveals your standards on a daily basis, not your vision. So here's what I want to share with you.

When some, if I'm working with a mentor-based client and I say to them, just pull open your phone.
