We're not doing this to achieve the goal and if you don't make it you're a you're a failure

we're doing this because we're curious we want to live full lives and we don't want to get caught up in everything else that's surrounding,

everything else that's telling us like, no, you haven't made it until this, this, and this.

This is my framework and I think that everyone should explore it for themselves to say when have I made it and then don't allow yourself for the trap of moving the goalposts.

Hello and welcome to another episode of Chasing Excellence.

My name is Patrick Cummings.

As always, I am here with Ben Bergeron every week on the show.

We dedicate some time to exploring how we can live a life of better health and increased fulfillment.

We answer your questions about the five factors of health, dive deep on living a life of excellence

and explore the strategies and frameworks to help us chase what truly matters.

Thank you so much for joining us this week. Hello and how

are you been? I'm doing really good. We're really good this week, Patrick. Thanks.

I'm having to hear that. This week, this episode we've got listener questions

about balancing weightlifting with running,

getting enough protein as a vegetarian and figuring out if over training is the cause of poor sleep.

Our workout will be a listener question about when or if we ever know that we've quote unquote made it in our careers

And we'll wrap up by giving you permission to do something that you should be doing but aren't yet perhaps

Before we get into the warm up a quick reminder we've been talking about this the last couple

weeks, something new for you to consider.

If you had a W.W. chasing excellence dot email.
