| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to this episode of the ESG Fitness podcast. |
| 0:05.2 | Coming to you again from a closet in Mexico. |
| 0:09.3 | For a long time since I've been in a closet, |
| 0:12.6 | from last week. |
| 0:15.3 | Oh, that was a very poor joke. |
| 0:17.7 | Anyway, something that I read on Twitter this week that I wanted to share with |
| 0:21.6 | you is a quote. And I think this is so good. I shared it on Instagram. It didn't, like, |
| 0:28.4 | it didn't go down that well, but maybe it's because it didn't have context. Maybe it's because |
| 0:32.5 | it only resonates with me. I don't know. Anyway, the quote is, you do not drown by falling into a river, but by staying |

| 1:09.9 | And that is why we do the daily accountability post on Commit to Six. |
| 1:14.9 | If you do have an off day and we all have off days, |
| 1:19.9 | then we are there as your coaches. |
| 1:22.1 | I say we as the coaches are there to help you own your actions, |
| 1:30.5 | learn from them, and then make a plan for a better a better day tomorrow and get you right back on track so that you don't stay submerged in the |
| 1:39.0 | river and drown, essentially. And by the way, on the snow, we open on Monday. That has been one of the quickest rounds. |
| 1:47.6 | I don't know if it's because I'm away, but it seems so quick. Anyway, we open on Monday. |
| 1:52.7 | The day that this episode is released actually, it's actually Thursday right now. You're listening |
