🤔 EP058 - If there is a source of recurring pain in your life that you have been avoiding - perhaps to the point where you’ve become numb or even blind to it, what is the first step we must take to overcome our fears, enabling us to step up instead of shrinking and surrendering into the shadows of fear?
“We read a bunch of books nowadays. As humans, we want to find out how to be someone else. What we don’t do is we don’t go inside. We’re writing a book every day of our lives, but we never read that book.” - David Goggins
🎙️ In today’s PodWod, we be crushing our EMOTIONAL Health & Fitness.
Breakdown or breakthrough - I talk about this repeatedly in my classes. That moment in a set where you’re not sure if you can keep going, and you have a choice to make. Do you listen to the piece of shit voice in your head that says it’s too hard or do you listen to the other voice in your head that knows you can do one more rep or at the very least try?
One of the men I respect most in my life, Mr. Philip Pape over at the Wits & Weights podcast once said, “When I talk about skepticism it’s not just questioning everything that comes AT you it’s questioning everything that comes FROM you - meaning we all have long-held beliefs, and they may be incorrect.”
Confronting our fears is not easy, but it is necessary if growth is what you’re after. All fear begins with the story that generated it. If you want to overcome your fears, start by re-writing the stories that created them in the first place.
