How many times do you have to hear if nothing changes, nothing changes?

Right? We all have heard this. I don't even know where it comes from.

I probably heard that first when I was 10 years old. If nothing changes, nothing changes,

and yet somehow we expect things to change. We expect things to change. You think you're

going to get in better shape. You think you're going to get more money. You think your relationship

is going to improve. You think you're going to get promoted. You think you're going to get

a raise. You think the world is going to get better without you doing anything, but it isn't.

Nothing is going to change unless you change what you're doing. Change the junk food that you're

eating. Change the time that you wake up. Change what you do when you get out of bed. Change what

you do with your time. That's what you need to do. You have to change some things or nothing will

change. So make changes and start little. Get up a little bit earlier. Get a workout done. Doesn't

have to be epic. Doesn't have to be epic. You don't have to do a three hour leg day,

but get up and get something done. And how about you plan your day? How about you plan what you're

going to do in the day? How about you bring your lunch to work with you so you don't have to eat

a slice of pizza or a damn burger and fries? How about you change what time you get to work by

showing up 10 minutes earlier and you square your gear away or you dial in your tools or your

desk or your workspace? That's what you need to do. You make those little changes. Those little

habits that you have. You have to change them. Those bad habits. And you'll be surprised.

You'll be surprised the little things, the little changes they add up and they become big things.

Change the little things and over time you can change your life.

But if you don't change, if you don't change what you're doing and how you do it,

nothing else will change.
