Knowing the truth is not the same thing as being honest. You can know what it looks like to be healthy and still lie to yourself about your decisions every day.

Hey everybody, welcome back to the Primal Potential Podcast.

I am Elizabeth Benton.

This is our Consistency 365 series. These are many episodes that

air between our full-length Monday and Saturday episodes so that we can make sure

no matter what is going on in our day that we take a few opportunities and use them to move the needle and make

progress towards our goal, no matter how crazy the day is, no matter what day of the week it is, every day is an opportunity we can seize to move

in that direction, even if just by a tiny bit.

I talked about this on social media the other day how everybody says well when you

know better you do better and I just don't think that's true. We all know that

criticizing our spouses is not going to motivate them to do things differently and knowing that doesn't

necessarily change our behavior.

A lot of us know that overindulging on sugar is going to leave us feeling crappy

and exhausted and disappointed in ourselves.

And knowing better does not mean we do better.

A lot of times we say, oh, well, I don't care.

This one thing won't hurt.

And then we wake up the following day going,

what the heck is wrong with me?

I knew better.

Knowing the truth is not the same thing as being honest.

A lot of the times, we tell ourselves lies of omission.
