Hey everyone, Vancouver Radio, how an earth are you doing? It's the Short Monday show.

I am on my own and I have a question from a listener of the show which I'm going to read out and then I'm going to answer.

So yeah I would usually do this with Tom on the Q&A show but there seems to be more questions

coming in at the moment and by the way if you want to ask a question of the show and it

maybe get read out like this on one of the short Monday shows or becomes one of the

Q&A shows I do with Tom then email Ben Kumba of the

Q&A shows I do with Tom then email Ben Coombre at gmail.com with the subject line podcast and it will get thrown into the

podcast question mix. So here is the question and it's going to take me a little

while to read it's quite a personal one and the reason why I chose to read this

question out is it's really important and it shows you how

we know a lot of things as people.

So you've been listening to this podcast for a while you understand a certain amount of fitness,

nutrition lifestyle information and you're using that to empower yourself to you know change to increase your performance and your health and that's all great

but there's this block there's this block between knowing what you need to do and

the actions that you're actually doing.

And I'm using this question to show you the link between logic and emotion and how sometimes it's not always in our control and this is where we need the help of others

to regain that control, to see the plan for the future, to be able to take action on the right kind of

of things and know why you're doing that because the reality is a lot of us have

some old behaviors that are getting in the way of our future potential and it's really

important to be able to break down that barrier, work out why it exists and create a plan to move forward.

And yes, not always these plans are straightforward.

You know, they don't always happen overnight.
