Summary

Imagine you’re faced with two paths to success: one is hard and full of obstacles, while the other is straightforward and effective.

The secret to success isn’t about working harder; it’s about working smarter. Successful people don’t create more obstacles for themselves, they find ways to remove them.

In this episode, I’ll use the inversion method to explain how figuring out what will guarantee failure and avoiding those issues is often much simpler than trying to discover the perfect path to success.

Instead of getting overwhelmed by all the endless things you need to do to become successful, focus on identifying what would guarantee your failure, then simply, do the opposite.

It’s natural to feel like you’re fighting a losing battle and that progress is impossible. It’s easy to think that giving up is the only option. But true success isn’t about never facing challenges; it’s about persevering, taking responsibility, and making adjustments to simplify your path so you can achieve your goals with greater ease.

0:00.0	Hello, welcome to the Lean of Plants podcast. My name is Chelsea and if you are struggling to lose weight on a plant-based diet, then this podcast is for you. While there are thousands of books, podcasts and resources about the benefits of a plant-based diet, the reality is that being vegan does not
0:21.9	guarantee losing weight. If you are feeling frustrated and confused about where to start,
0:28.6	or you know exactly what you should be doing, but you just can't seem to rustle up enough
0:34.1	willpower to do it, then keep listening. In this podcast, you'll learn the
0:38.7	truth about plant-based weight loss, but just as importantly, how to use proven methods of
0:44.1	behavioural change to turn what you know into lifelong habits that lead to getting and staying
0:49.9	lean. Can't wait to get started. Let's do this. What if I told you that there's a hard way to achieve something and that there's a really
1:13.7	easy way? There's a way that actually guarantees that you will be successful and there's a way
1:18.8	that means that you will most likely not. And successful people always choose the easy way because
1:24.7	it's more likely to succeed. So I want you to picture for a moment that
1:29.1	you have a boulder, that you're pushing up a hill. And as you push this boulder, it feels
1:35.7	extremely heavy. You're sweating. Your hands are rubbed raw from like pushing this boulder up.
1:42.8	And then every single time that you stumble
1:45.2	every time that you take a breather or you feel like you just cannot push anymore it comes back
1:52.1	on top of you because gravity is fighting it and you feel like you just lose any ground that you have
1:57.6	and then sometimes you're just like you know this is too hard and you it go completely. And then all the progress that you've made pushing that is
2:05.2	completely gone. And if you've ever dieted, then you probably have experienced something similar
2:11.7	metaphorically, where you're putting in so much effort, you're white knuckling it, you're lowering
2:15.7	your calories, you're trying to go to the
2:18.1	gym and you're doing hit or P90X or something that is extremely intense and then you just can't do
2:24.3	it anymore and all of the progress that you've made is completely gone. It feels like you're
2:29.4	fighting in chlorine to succeed and you're fighting a fight that you just really will probably never win.
