Summary
I believe with all my heart that if you master what we're talking about in today's episode, you can crush any goal you set for yourself.
Today's episode is about getting rid of all the drama & all the stories you use to talk yourself into choices that prevent you from reaching your goals.
Today's episode is about distinguishing between what is really happening & the story you tell yourself about what is happening.
Today we are looking at a couple basic yet powerful ideas:
What is really happening without your story?
Implementing simple decision making criteria.
Oftentimes, we distract and exhaust ourselves with complicated stories about our past or our fears of the future and we get far away from what is really happening and the simple choice that needs to be made.
Today we are cutting through all the drama and getting to the basics of the decision at hand & how you can master challenging moments.
If you listen to any episode, listen to this one!

| 0:06.6 | Through education, motivation, and implementation, we will bridge the gap between knowing and |

| 0:21.3 | Let's get started. |
| 0:24.4 | Hello everybody and welcome back to the Primal Potential Podcast. |
| 0:28.2 | I am Elizabeth Benton and I am legitimately excited about this episode because I really |
| 0:37.2 | think that for many, many people what we're going to talk about today is the thing that is |
| 0:44.9 | making your journey to your goals so much more difficult and so much more inconsistent |
| 0:52.8 | than it needs to be. |
| 0:55.3 | Today we're talking about telling stories about your circumstances in your header out loud |
| 1:02.6 | that make change harder than it needs to be and if that doesn't make sense to you yet I promise |
| 1:09.6 | it will I've got lots of examples of how we do that. |
| 1:13.7 | Whether your story is about what you always do I'm good for a few days but then I always go back |
| 1:19.9 | to my old patterns or if your story is about how you deserve a treat because you've been so good |
| 1:27.2 | and how you talk yourself into indulging when you see a little progress as a reward. |
| 1:33.4 | Oftentimes the problem is not so much the choices we are making but rather the problem is more |
| 1:42.6 | about the stories we're telling ourselves that talk us into the choices we make. |
| 1:50.4 | Today is all about identifying what is happening here without my story and this came up in a series |
| 1:59.3 | of posts in the Primal Potential Fatlust Fast Track Rookie Group. The wait list for my winter |
| 2:06.1 | group is open on PrimalPotential.com and I'll make sure to link to it in the show notes but |
