| 0:00.0 | Hi guys, it's Tony Robbins. You're listening to Habits and Hustle. Crush it. |
| 0:06.7 | And here we are. Solo episode. We're just, I don't know, just shooting the shit over here with Shani. And on like literally the most mundane, like unimportant shit, my hair. And if it's darker or lighter than it used to be. |
| 0:23.1 | So what do you guys think? Yeah. So what do you think? And I got a little bit of a trim. That's |
| 0:27.4 | basically the big conversation topic. I'm going to tune out and just move on to the next thing. |
| 0:32.9 | No, I'm joking. Okay. Let's move on. Let's talk about something that I was thinking about last night, |
| 0:37.2 | which is this idea of what you focus on. |
| 0:41.1 | I think this is actually really interesting because I like to focus on things that I think about not how I feel before I do something, but how I will feel after I do something. |
| 0:52.6 | Right. So I don't allow how I feel before to shape and decide what I'm |
| 0:59.6 | going to do because a lot of times the things that you are like that you feel bad about later |
| 1:06.1 | are the things that you were going to feel good about before. And the things that you kind of like |
| 1:11.6 | feel like you don't want to do actually make you feel better after. So focus on how you feel |

| 1:23.1 | they felt worse after working out. But they would say they felt worse after drinking, you know, |
| 1:31.6 | a leader of tequila. But at the time they decided to do it, they were super psyched and excited |

| 1:42.9 | And they felt like like shit after. So think about those things because if you focus on health versus happiness, you know, health leads you to happiness as opposed to like focusing on being happy, being happy, but not doing any of the right steps and making the right choices and doing the right decisions to get you to that place. I love that. Wait, that's so great. This idea of, I think |
| 2:07.5 | so many people are waiting to feel good before they pursue a lot of these things. Yeah, they're waiting |
| 2:11.7 | to, not thinking that pursuing these things will lead you to feeling good. Right. That's the whole thing. |
| 2:15.5 | Like you switch it on its head, right? |
| 2:18.1 | We're all waiting for this moment when we feel happy and feel a certain way to then go after |
| 2:25.0 | something or do something versus what I just said, which is this idea that you focus on being |
