CONSISTENT by Primal Potential
Elizabeth Benton
Why are we so stressed & overwhelmed? Why do we have clear & compelling goals but fail to reach them? How can we want to change so desperately yet make choices that keep us from that change? Because we keep focusing on the habits we want instead of building the skill of consistency that allows us to achieve them. Consistency is a skill. It's a superpower. It isn't one-size-fits all. It unlocks any door and makes every goal achievable. A more effective, realistic approach starts here.

426: Discipline Equals Freedom
I read a lot. Multiple books each week. Within the Primal Potential Masters Club we have a monthly book club where we read, discuss and implement the strategies within many of my all time favorite books. Every once in a while I do a book club episode on the podcast and share ideas from a book I've recently enjoyed. Today we're talking about Discipline Equals Freedom Field Manual by Jocko Willink. Though I don't know him, I have an immeasurable amount of respect & admiration for him & his philosophies. Jocko was a Navy Seal & commander of the most decorated special operations unit of the war in Iraq. Since retiring from military service, he has become a successful business man & coach who lives to practice what he preaches. From my perspective, Jocko Willink embodies mental toughness, achievement, bravery & self-discipline. I'm excited to share some of his ideas with you. If you are looking for a swift kick in the pants, buy the book and more importantly, live the ideas within it.

423: If This Was My Last Episode
The other day in my Daily Stoic Journal I answered the following question: If I lived today as if it were my last, what would I do? At first, I copped out. I wrote out all the things I'd do & then all the reasons why I couldn't do them. I mean, I have to work! I have responsibilities. Then, I caught myself and said: within the framework of my current reality, what can I do? Instead of focusing on what I would do but can't, what are the things I should do & can? One of those things I said I'd do if it was my last day on earth is record a final message for my Primal Potential family. So, though this is not the last Primal Potential podcast, I wanted to record it as though it was. These are all the things I'd want you to know if it was my last day on earth. http://primalpotential.com/423/ Resources How to leave a rating & review Want to be a part of the Primal Potential community?

421: Eliminating Your Story Barrier
This week I've had a bunch of one-on-one calls with folks who attended ASCEND, the Primal Potential weekend workshop in early November. Today, those calls had a powerful theme: The circumstances we use to justify our choices and our commitment & attachment to those stories. There are a couple aspects of a choice: the setup for the choice & the choice itself. When we desire change, we often focus on changing the choice itself - we want to eat less, move more, reduce sugar, etc. However, a more effective approach might be to change the setup. More specifically, it is likely more effective to stop committing to the story you use to justify the choice. Not sure what this looks like? Tune in to today's episode for examples & strategies! http://primalpotential.com/421/ Resources How to leave a rating & review Want to be a part of the Primal Potential community?

420: Hacking Mindless Eating
You can have ambitious goals and pure intentions but if you're eating mindlessly, without paying attention, you're going to struggle to achieve them. How do we transition from randomly grabbing a handful of crackers or a piece of candy without thinking to intentionally fueling our body by conscious choice? If you can break the habit (and you can) of eating in front of the tv, while you're driving or from random bags & boxes, your physical progress will increase dramatically. Today we are talking about tactical strategies to eliminate mindless eating & overcoming the obstacles to executing these strategies on a daily basis. http://primalpotential.com/420/ Resources How to leave a rating & review Episode 410: The Value of Simplicity Want to be a part of the Primal Potential community?

419: *Personal* Year End Review
At the risk of extreme vulnerability & personal sharing, I'm taking you through my 2017 year-end review process in the hopes that you'll be intentional about going through your own. I made the decision to share much more personal stuff than I normally do to show the necessity of both failure & success and how oftentimes, our most significant launch pad is established by what, if not investigated, appears to be a failure. http://primalpotential.com/419/ Resources How to leave a rating & review Want to be a part of the Primal Potential community?
