Breaking Through Self-Sabotage, Excuses, and Inconsistency to Finally See Results

Introduction

Ever felt like you have all the information, yet you’re still not implementing? You’re not alone. I used to think more knowledge was the answer—I’d read every book, take every course, listen to every podcast, and yet… nothing changed. I stayed stuck in a cycle of inconsistency, self-doubt, and frustration. The harder I tried to find the “perfect” solution, the worse it got.

This isn’t about knowing what to do—it’s about actually doing it. Today, we’re breaking down exactly how to close the gap between knowing and doing so you can stop spinning your wheels and start seeing real results.

Which bank are you building? Are you investing in your excuses, or in your action? Let’s talk about how to make deposits into the right account.


Segment 1: The Mindset Shift You MUST Make

Your struggle isn’t about discipline or motivation—it’s about how you think.

There’s a story about a gambling man who had two dogs he raced. With startling accuracy, he could always predict which dog would win. When he retired, someone asked him how he did it.

"Oh, that’s easy. I just alternated the feedings. Whichever dog I fed would win."

We all have two “dogs” in our minds:

  • One is fueled by excuses, procrastination, and self-doubt.
  • The other is fueled by action, consistency, and belief in ourselves.

Which one are you feeding?

  • Mind the Gap – The frustration isn’t from not knowing what to do; it’s from the gap between what you know and what you do. Every small action closes the gap.
  • Why We Keep Delaying Change:
    • We say, "I’ll start tomorrow," but we’d never say that about work.
    • We treat our health like an optional hobby instead of a priority.
  • Reframing Motivation:
    • Think about Deal or No Deal. Are you taking a bad deal because it’s easy?
    • Sin and Archery— missing the bullseye - the best part of this whole episode
