Summary
Stuck in the vicious, "I'll start tomorrow" cycle?
I get it. I spent most of my life in it. I used to pray that I'd wake up motivated. Here's the thing, it's not just about how badly you want to make a change, sometimes life gets in the way! You're busy! Between work, family, friends, significant others, fur babies, and general life obligations, squeezing in a miserable 30 minute gym session or run can feel impossible. That's why it's all about getting active in ways that empower you.
Let's talk about saying yes to yourself and making a change once and for all.

| 0:00.0 | Well, hello everyone. Welcome to episode number unlucky 13. My name is Kelly Roberts and I'm your host of the Run Self-Repeat |
| 0:12.0 | Podcast where we talk life with a side of running. Today I want to play a little game. So we're going to play |
| 0:20.8 | honor system. |
| 0:21.6 | So obviously this is a podcast and I can't see you. |
| 0:25.1 | So whether or not you participate is up to you. |
| 0:28.0 | It's kind of a cool kid test. |
| 0:32.2 | If you're too cool to put your hand up, you've failed. |
| 0:36.1 | But please raise your hand. If you regularly find yourself saying any of the |
| 0:41.1 | following statements, I'm going to start eating healthier tomorrow, or there's not enough time to |
| 0:47.0 | work out today. I'll do two workouts tomorrow. I'll call my mom and dad tomorrow. I don't want to |
| 0:52.2 | work out. I'd rather watch Game of Thrones. I'll just run further tomorrow. I'm not even going to lie. I don't want to work out. I'd rather watch Game of Thrones. I'll just run further |
| 0:54.7 | tomorrow. I'm not even going to lie. I don't want to work out right now. And I'm not going to do it |
| 1:00.3 | tomorrow. I think we can all raise our hands to that last one. Yeah, we've all been there. We've |
| 1:07.2 | all said that. Let's just take a hot second to talk about why we aren't in fact |
| 1:13.0 | going to start tomorrow when we say we'll start tomorrow. It's self-discipline. And self-discipline |
| 1:19.4 | isn't the problem. Life is the problem because here's the thing. Tomorrow doesn't actually exist. |
| 1:25.1 | We have absolutely no control over tomorrow. We can be the most driven, motivated, |
| 1:30.8 | and self-discipline people in the world, but we don't have any control over what happens |
| 1:35.8 | tomorrow. So even though we say we're going to do something tomorrow, tomorrow's going to come, |
| 1:40.5 | and then there will arguably be 50 things that we need to do instead and we will |
| 1:47.1 | always prioritize other things over that thing that we don't want to do and nine times out of 10 |
