You are listening to the Life Coach School Podcast with Brookestio episode number 405.

Welcome to the Life Coach School Podcast, where it's all about real clients, real problems, and real coaching.

And now your host, Master Coach Instructor Brookestio.

Hi my friends, I'm coming to you today from a day of I just can't.

And what's crazy about that is I'm actually doing what I say I can't do, but I'm telling myself that I can't do it.

Have you had these days where you like wake up in the morning and you're like, I just can't do it.

Today I just can't. I want to crawl back under the covers. I don't want to do it.

I don't want to show up. I don't want to deliver. I just literally can't do it, which is a lie because I am doing it.

And I want to give you all some tips when you're just mentally, physically at maybe a five out of 10.

How do you get through your day? How do you handle that?

I know for some of you, you air on the side of staying in bed and you cancel your day and you're very dramatic and you watch Netflix all day and you just can't function.

And others of you ignore yourself completely and just beat yourselves up and grind yourself through the day. And I think that there's a middle ground.

There's a middle ground where you're just not feeling it, but you want to get your work done. You want to take care of it.

You don't want to compound your next day by making that worse.

You want to get through the day, even though you're just not feeling it. I want to help you with that because I feel like I do that quite well.

And I show up even when I say that I can't, but I also take care of myself as I need to take care of myself.

So I'm going to give you some tactics. I'm going to give you some actual physical things to do, but I'm also going to give you a mental way of approaching this.

So you know how to take care of yourself and you do take care of yourself, but you also get as much work done as you possibly can while doing that at the same time.

Now, I just want to make a caveat here. Like if you're deathly ill and you need to be in bed, this is not the podcast for you.

Right? Those days you know you're like, there's no doing anything. I literally just can't. This is for more of the like, like, I could, I could rally. I just don't feel like it.

This is for you, if that's you. And for some of you, this is a daily occurrence.

I know for me, like if I have a mild cold or I'm not feeling quite right, like this could go on for a week where I have to like get up and like rally myself.
