What's going on, everyone. Welcome to another episode of the fit, healthy, and most of all,

happy podcast. I'm your coach and host Josh here with.

This co-host and co-coach KG and I'm in the house.

And welcome to our newest, most updated best version of Motivation Monday. So two big announcements

to start off Motivation Monday right here. We're going to add a little segment about like where we are in our journey, what we're working towards and like what our personal aspirations are in terms of what we're struggling with, where we're narrowing on our journey and how we're trying to get more results. So both myself and Kyle, we're going to see how it fits. I think it'll add a little bit more of a personal aspect. And you'll get some really good takeaways learning about the things that we're still focusing on after 10 years of lifting here, which is fantastic. The second thing, if you're listening on Spotify, they have like a Q&A. So if you're actually listening to it right now and you click it and make it like big screen, you can actually ahead and leave a comment respond directly to us we've been checking it every week and i've been loving

seeing the comments before we even announcement sorry before we even announced it so if you want to say

something to us if you want to submit a question if you have a comment on the episode if you want to

say something you love from the episode you can now directly essentially comment on this episode it won't be public but it will go to write to me and kyle and we'd really like the feedback and we'd love to hear how you like the new segment today so if you're able to do that then mean the world if your youtube gang first of all what's up you the best and you can and comment right down below. Nice and easy. You can do the same and that'll be absolutely great. But those are two new exciting components of this. But of course, we still got the fundamentals of what makes these episodes great, much like our quotes of the week. Let's kick it off with Kyle's quote. So my quote this week, I just had to dig into my notes from the conference. I'm still on a high from that and just excited and inspired from that. And one thing that really stood out to me was her name was Jen. I think it's Gottlieb. I may be pronouncing the last name wrong. But she had said simple. It was four words. Start before you're ready.

And I just thought that was so powerful because it's just, it's a very simple couple words and it doesn't like go into crazy detail.

But I just think a lot of people wait until that perfect moment when you feel like you're

100% ready or even just like you're so comfortable that you've been ready for a while, but you want to make sure you're 100% ready. And I'm sure a lot of you can relate to something in your life, whether, and I especially apply this to our fitness journey because once again, there will never be a perfect time. I know I've said it before over and over and over again, but I just really want to highlight that for any of you who's just

starting to think of the new year. I'm waiting until January 1st, waiting for promotion,

waiting for a kid to be a certain age, like whatever that is. Start before you're ready. You're

never going to regret it. And it's going to be something that you're going to see three months of

progress before versus waiting until a

certain a certain point so start before you're ready i hope that helps and i hope that means something to

you yeah a lot of the times you just got to go out and do what needs to be done it's not a metric of

what doing what you feel like doing like if you want to be great you got to do those hard things you

just got to get out there get it done and the truth is you'll never be ready if you wait for be great, you got to do those hard things. You just got to get out there. Get it done. And the truth is you'll never be ready. If you wait for all the stars to align and the gym to be absolutely perfectly dead and you to feel fantastic and the weather to be great. Like it's just not going to happen. And that's where a lot of people go wrong. And that one day just continues to be a one day and said it should be today right now. if you've been putting something off this is a great call to just get it done add it to your list for the day crank it out today get a lot of mental clarity from that because every day you're not doing those things you know you should be doing you're carrying that stress you're carrying that anxiety knowing you're not living to your purpose your potential potential to what needs to be done. It's weighing

on you every day like, I should get in shape. I should get in shape. I need to go to the gym. And every

day you're carrying that. So you can give yourself a lot of mental freedom and happiness from just

getting out there and getting it done right away. So that was a killer quote. And we're going to jump
