Hello, everybody. Welcome back to the Primal Potential Podcast and our consistency 365

series. I am Elizabeth Benton. I want to challenge you today. I want to challenge you right

now. To do the right thing, not the easy thing. Moment by moment, this can be a mantra

you carry with you and you begin to practice and you begin practicing now. You begin practicing

with whatever you are doing right now. If you're washing dishes, if you're folding laundry,

if you're walking on the treadmill, what will it look like to do the right thing and not

bring forth these questions in this reminder tomorrow? You know, we talked about this a

from the perspective of my whole life or all week or even all day, that might feel overwhelming.

Like, well, what if I want to sit on the couch and watch a show that might not be the right

thing, but it is the easy thing. And maybe I can do it right now. But how can I do it later?

We overwhelm ourselves by taking on more than the moment at hand. But if we just take it

for the next choice or the next hour, it changes everything and it's very doable. So let's not

take ourselves out of the game by taking on more than we could ever do realistically in one moment

anyway. Do the right thing, not the easy thing. Break this down and take it from a sound bite

to something that is actionable for you. What does it look like? I'm recording this at 6 o'clock

at night. So what does it look like for me to do the right things tonight and not the easy things?

What would that look like? That can look like making sure I have more water before I go to bed,

making sure the kitchen is picked up, doing something to set myself up for success in the morning.

It could mean taking out my contacts instead of sleeping with them in. It could be

getting in 10 minute workout instead of laying on the couch or reading a book instead of scrolling
