The Fit Effect

The Fit Effect

The Fit Effect is a podcast hosted by Michael Budensiek covering the ROI of health in your Business and Life, which is the missing piece to your prosperity. Having spent the last 20 years coaching individuals in a variety of ways; ranging from Personal Training, Health Coaching, Business Consulting, & Life Strategy,I have discovered that the best physical way to a better career & life is through your health. In this show we cover topics relating to fitness, business, the over all improvement of life & how it all comes together in the pursuit of true prosperity. You will hear from myself, Audra, and other guests as we discuss many fun and exciting topics that will not only get you thinking, but also guide you to improving your health while expanding your business, career, & life. This show was previously "Bald Business - The Naked Truth In Entrepreneurship", so plenty of past episodes to listen to as an old version of who I was, the last episode I did as Bald Business with Dr. Grant Elliot from Rehab Fix really inspired what would become this show now (even though there has been a couple years of dead space). If you like the show, please give it a follow and a review. I am here for you, so I hope this helps. Stay well

We are ALL different and unique in our own way, which makes it interesting sometimes solving challenges with the body (or mind), because at times the solutions are very independent to the individual, even if similar to someone else.

I say this because I want to share 3 simple,...

Today I am talking about the idea of how your thoughts control the results you see. It goes from thoughts to actions and actions to results. It's so important to recognize and notice how our thoughts are affecting our outcomes and the only way that's possible is to take responsibility for our thoughts, then our actions,  and then our results - good or bad - progress or set back.

Today's episode is short, it's short because the lesson is simple and something that I realized this week when working on our business that I share in the episode. 

We want it to be pain free, we want it to be easy, we want it to be simple, but it's not. 

So do we embrace the pain of the process or quit? 

I share three things you need to do right now to fight through.
