Hey guys, this is Cori from Redefining Strength. Welcome to the Fitness Hacks Podcast. This is the show where I share all my free work on and nutrition tips. I’m not going to ever fill this episode with sponsorships or ask you to buy anything. All I ask in return is if you’re enjoying the podcast to leave a review or leave a five star rating or even better share it with somebody you think it might help. This will only take a few minutes and would mean the world to me and possibly change the life of someone. So let’s jump right in. We all have those things that we feel we have to do to get results, but the more we can reframe these things as things we get to do, the better off we’re going to be. And that’s why I’m super excited to dive in today with my fabulous coach, Liz, into changing that mindset so that we’re doing things for us. So thank you Liz, for joining me today.

Liz (00:50):
Awesome to be here.

Cori (00:51):
So let’s talk about how can we shift this mindset from have to get to

Liz (00:58):
Well, I think the first thing is you have to sort of take a pause. You have to start to recognize that that is what you’re actually and how you’re actually viewing it. And once you bring that sort of to that frontal lobe, as I say, in terms of catching yourself, getting up in the morning and saying, I have to clean the bathrooms today, or I have to walk the dog or I have to do my workout. That can really set the tone for your entire day and sometimes your week, your month, your year. So the acknowledgement and sort of catching yourself in the act, if you will, can really be the first step to that big change. And once you recognize how you use your language, the words you use, how you sort of phrase that for yourself, and even the slightest shift in the way in which you’re saying it, the tone in which you’re saying it in your brain changes how powerful that can be to change the entire perspective of all those things, many of which we view as chores, but can quickly become things that we actually say, I get to get up and do those things because one, I’m strong enough, I’m privileged enough to be able to do those things and they’re going to lead me to be able to do other things that I even enjoy more.

(02:25):
And I think that shift can really set our day off in a way that really changes everything going to the grocery store and people getting in your way, someone’s stealing your parking spot, whatever it is, it all spills over in how we start with those things that are part of our regular routine.

Cori (02:44):
I love that you bring up that self-awareness because I think that’s often something that, well, it’s at the heart of every change that we’re going to make. We have to be aware of a pattern we’re repeating in the language we’re using before we can make that change. And when we start to see all of the times we say I have to, it’s not just the words, right? It is the words in that we’re saying have to versus get to, but it’s the attitude behind them and the mindsets behind them and not even recognizing the why behind why we’re doing those things. We say, oh, I have to clean the kitchen or I have to clean the bathroom. And while I don’t know if anybody will fully think that’s fun, and if you do think that’s fun, come over, please do mine. We can shift our mindset around the have to and the attitude behind that into, Hey, I love having a clean house. It makes me feel way less stressed. It makes me feel so much happier. It really changes my whole mindset. I know when my house gets cluttered, it does sort of pull me down and you can put it into the why behind it and sort of tie it back to something bigger in terms of that with some of the habits, especially around fitness and nutrition, how do you make sure that you are tying things back to your why so that it feels like something you get to do?

Liz (03:54):
Absolutely. And I think part of the changing the have to get to, I mean the words I have to actually trigger that stress response in us. And so when we start out with that stress response in our bodies, whether it’s first thing in the day that’s going to set the tone for the other things that we get to do. And so when we start looking at things such as I have to get up and do my workout, it becomes more, I get to do my workout and I get to do those other things too. And I love using the parallel of instead of using the word but using the word and I get to clean that kitchen and I get to work out because then it becomes inclusive and it becomes part of just our day-to-day routine, if you will. And it takes away that extra stress of I have to do that in order to do that.

(04:45):
So it doesn’t become mutually exclusive or an either or. It becomes an and I think when we start to view things with the way that we take care of ourselves, whether that’s self-care, that’s knowing that we get to go for a walk if we do these other things, it all adds up to the way in which we sort of approach every single day. And there’s a quote I love that is be that person you want to be that when your feet hit the floor, the rest of the world is going, oh no. Right? Because when you get up out of bed and you have that attitude of when my feet hit the floor, everybody else better be ready. That’s already where you’ve kind of made this awareness that you want to hit the floor and you want to be running and you want to be out there with a really positive attitude regardless.

(05:32):
And I think when we start to rationalize not being able to do things because of other things we have to do, it becomes that slippery slope of if I have to do that, then I can’t do that. Instead of it being I get to do this and I can do this. And that just changes our whole outlook on the way we take care of ourselves. It’s a little bit of putting on own mask before putting on somebody else’s. If we’re not putting our own mask on by getting to do the things that we want to do and need to do for ourselves, filling our buckets, putting deposits in our banks, then we will forever be trying to figure out how to get to that place, how to get to the get tos. We’ll always be thinking of it as the have-tos.

Cori (06:17):
It’s tying the habits back to the importance for you, but also connecting things that you already are inspired to do that you get to do to things that maybe you don’t necessarily yet feel that way about. And I love that use of and to do that because you are connecting things that maybe you are prioritizing in your life to things that you haven’t yet prioritized through that. And I even think it goes so far as to start your morning with something you already feel you get to do or you want to do. Because as you mentioned, that really does set the whole tone when you have this feeling of I have to do this, I have to get up and do this, I have to do things. I don’t necessarily yet prioritize or value as much as maybe I should because I haven’t seen that connection to my why or haven’t felt that connection to my why. The more you can even start the day with something you get to do that you are inspired to do, the more you set that tone then to even change your mindset towards other things that maybe you haven’t yet found that priority in or that value in potentially.

Liz (07:18):
No, and I agree and I think the why piece is so powerful and we’re all in different places on that. We all have whys that might start here but evolve into here. And as those whys become more clear or become stronger or even change, and that happens as we evolve through this journey is our whys potentially maybe get more clear and maybe they change, but at the end of the day, we all want to feel energized, we want to feel good. So we know intellectually those feelings that we want to experience, we’ve experienced them and sometimes we have to sort of prioritize that as I get to get up and do this because I know that I’m going to feel amazing, strong and energized when I am finished. And that becomes the why. And it also I think sometimes helps the prioritization. And when we try to prioritize the things that are most essential in our lives, there’s a lot of noise, there’s a lot of distractions, and we sometimes have to get right back to one, making sure that that’s something that is maybe not negotiable.

(08:27):
That’s sometimes a way in which to look at things that we get to do versus what we have to do. But also it ties back really to how we know we’re going to feel. And that gets back into the why I want to feel really good because I know that I’m a much better mom, I’m a much better spouse, I’m a much better whatever friend when I have that why fulfilled. And it comes down to I think the idea of feeling as if we have that worthiness to validate that that is really important to us and that we are so lucky to be able to get up and lift that heavier weight if that is in our workout today or we get to be able to go fill our plate with nutritious foods and those are things that just become part of our muscle memory over time it becomes more so the get to as opposed to the have to, the more we practice it, the more we get up and just say I get to as opposed to I have to.

Cori (09:26):
And sometimes even if the habit doesn’t feel like something you get to do and you’re mentally thinking, okay, I can repeat get to, but it feels like something I have to do, we can tie it back to something that makes it feel more like a get to even in overcoming some of the challenges. Because I can tell you the workout that feels the best is the one that you do when you feel like you have to over you get to. And so even in thinking that on a day where you’re like, oh gosh, my mindset is I have to do this, be like, Hey, I get to do this and I get to feel extra strong because I’m going to have done this when maybe my original mindset, my original thought was the have to. And in thinking that sometimes you can even shift the mindset of, oh yeah, I feel so much better when I do something at a time maybe I don’t want to do, it’s not like a glossing over everything or a Pollyanna in everything, but it is recognizing to the value in those things and even the things that you maybe don’t prioritize right away the and can be so valuable.

(10:24):
Because I know for me sometimes in the morning to do things that I will otherwise let slide from the day because they aren’t yet priorities for me. I will do them and say, I am doing these things and then I get to do this other thing that maybe I do really feel I get to do. That excites me. And by doing those things first I’ll make sure they get done. Ultimately they feel less have to because they’re tied to something even that’s positive and we forget that association sometimes between something we maybe don’t yet have that positive feeling toward. That feels like a have to and tying it back to that get to change the perception of it because it is that. And as you mentioned,

Liz (10:59):
Yeah, and I totally agree, Corey, to your point, it is really important to acknowledge that there are definitely have tos in our life. I mean, we tell our kids you have to brush your teeth otherwise you’re going to have issues when you get to be older. And so it’s not to say that there isn’t an important aspect of the things we have to do because I mean we all have things we have to do. It’s the way we look at it and even that have tos can be like I have to mow the lawn. Oh, that’s awesome, but maybe I get to, but that doesn’t really do it for me, but I have to mow that lawn. Okay, good. Just approach it with a great attitude because as you say, when I get done mowing that lawn, I’m going to get to go stand up paddling. So in some ways it is, yes, it is that habit linking I like to call it, it’s almost like those pairing of habits. I get to do this and then I get to do this and has a much louder sort of voice and calling to you. And sometimes it’s the motivator too. It’s the thing that motivates you to get through the first, get to the second get to.

(12:14):
I think it’s really important to distinguish between cheerleading and really supporting. It’s like I need to make sure that I approach this with the right mindset versus I’m just going to convince myself that this is good.

Cori (12:32):
Yes, we don’t do well at the fake it till you make it. It’s more the act as this. And in that with the get tos too, it’s doing it for you. And I bring this up because I think that’s an important thing that we also gloss over that we’re doing these things for us. But that’s also why so often we do let some of the get tos slide and we can even feel like they are have tos when we do enjoy them. We do enjoy our workout, but we feel like we get to do our workout and we feel a little guilty and then it becomes a have to because we want to prioritize other things for other people. How do you help clients sort of work through the feeling of potentially even guilt with saying, I am doing things for myself and I want to do things for myself, but I feel like I get to and then it becomes a have to because I feel like I shouldn’t be prioritizing myself.

Liz (13:23):
And that is huge for a lot of people. I mean people who are taking care of others a lot of their lives. And I think there comes a point in time when there then almost becomes this resentment to the other parts of their lives where they get so far down that road that it’s very hard to pull back to a place where they feel good. And the first thing that typically I’ll encourage a client to do is to sit down and really write down what are the things that fill their energy bank. And I use the bank or the ATM sort of analogy because I think it’s very visual for people to see. We have a bank and if we always have withdrawals of those have tos, we lose sight of one why we’re doing them. Our bank becomes overdrawn and we lose sight of what we need to make those deposits.

(14:19):
And I mean time is a resource. We have so much time, it’s finite. And how we use that time becomes a matter of priority but also desire. How do we want to use that time? And I always say that with your ATM, you have so much time in that ATM, right? So much money in that ATM, what are you going to do to make deposits to that, that’s going to fill that why? That’s going to give you a sense of purpose and fulfillment for some people that is working out, if we use working out as an example, for some people that is working out for other people not so much, but they know the benefits and they do it because they know that it is good for them, but they would much rather be out hiking. So I think that there’s an element of knowing, having awareness, acknowledgement over what are the things that you need to deposit into your bank because you got to be making deposits in some way, shape or form.

(15:17):
And some of those are get tos and a lot of those are get tos. And there are probably a few have toss in there too, but as long as there’s always more deposits than there are withdrawals on a regular basis, you’re always going to have some kind of balance in the bank. And I think that when a client starts to recognize what their deposits are, many times some of those have tos actually become get tos because they realize actually they are for them. And it’s not so much of a chore that it’s actually something that does fill their bucket. It does give them a deposit and it helps to minimize some of the withdrawals. For some people the deposit is also a withdrawal. So when we look at how do we constantly reframe some of these things that we are doing to change that attitude with ourselves, first of all, it’s okay to have a bad day.

(16:09):
I mean I would say that it’s okay to have a bad day. The most important thing is how do you respond the next day? How do you take that, what you’ve learned today, what was the challenge you had today and where’s your opportunity to change that for tomorrow? And when they start to think about, well, what is it that’s going to make me start my day off better tomorrow or maybe change something that happened today that I can do differently tomorrow, all of a sudden it becomes a much more mindful practice as opposed to a reaction. And the response starts to be much more proactive as opposed to reactive. And I think sometimes when we get in that I have to mode, it’s a lot of times because we lose sight of being proactive and seeing things that we know might be coming and coming up with a plan and a response that’s going to help us to keep that attitude sort of where we want it to be.

(17:04):
Not because somebody else wants us to change our attitude, but because we want to change the way we look at it so that it’s coming from internally and not the external constant noise of what we have to do or what other people expect us to do. How do we do these things for ourselves? And that’s I think a big shift for some people to even just quantify or articulate is a better word, articulate what that is, what are those things? And once you know that you can go back to those time and time again and they’re often tied back to why you’re doing those things. And it all comes back around to where we started of how do we start with the right attitude of we get to do these things.

Cori (17:54):
But I think you hit on it right there. It’s tying it back to that why and realizing that everything you do is your choice. Because so often we do act like all these things are acting on us and we are doing absolutely everything for ourselves, even taking care of other people. Yes, it’s for them, but we’re doing this because it makes us feel good as part of who we are. We get to even do those things. And that reframing of that mindset, it doesn’t happen overnight, but it is so key. And the more we recognize truly stepping back, we’ve set our why. This means that when you set your why, everything you’re doing for your why, you’re doing for you and not in a selfish way, in a good way. And the more you do, the more you do, as you mentioned, if we get into that haveto mode, everything becomes a haveto.

(18:37):
Even things we truly enjoy on a daily basis. I mean I’ve had those bad days where it’s like I have to do this and I have to do that and I have to do this, and half those things I even want to do slash put on my calendar to do because they were get tos. But because I got into that mode, it became a have to. And then we have to remember the more you do, the more you do. So the second you feel yourself getting into that mode saying, Hey, how can I flip this? How can I even pause in all the things I now feel I have to do and put in something I feel like I get to do? Because again, it goes back to the, and you can say, now I get to do this. I want to do this on this day despite everything else that has happened and after that, all of a sudden now I get to do this and this and this because of doing that. But it’s recognizing the direction of your momentum, so to speak.

Liz (19:22):
And I think that there’s so many ways to approach it. And one of the things that seems to be a common thread, I think for many people, myself included, is that we get this sense of busy equating to purpose. And I always say busy is a four letter word, but it took me 55 years to figure that out. And so when you get to that place where you recognize that being busy isn’t necessarily fulfilling a purpose or serving us in terms of doing things for ourselves, we stop and need to pause. And one of the things, another thing that I find really helpful with clients who come from a place of a lot of overwhelm where they might be involved in a million things and all of a sudden they wake up and they go, boy, I have really got to focus on myself, right?

(20:16):
Well, you can’t just flip the switch. You can’t just all of a sudden say, unless you’re going to move to an island, I am just not going to do any of that other stuff and all I’m going to do is take care of myself because that isn’t typically the way it works. And instead really sitting back and starting to take a look at again, just sitting back and bringing some clarity and articulating on the things that are most important to them. Again, the why. And I think when you can identify what are the things that are most important to you, and then identify what are the actions you need to take to align with that and start with the most simple step. So in other words, getting out of bed in the morning and then you first say, I have to go do X is the first step is stop, wait, I just heard myself.

(21:11):
I say I have to, right? That’s the first thing. And the more that you practice catching yourself and making that change, the more progress you’re going to make. And it really comes back to really taking a look at, there are a couple of things that I think are wonderful ways to look at our lives and the way all of this fits in this big puzzle as we call it. And part of it is, is that the pieces of our pie constantly shift. That’s just life. And we know there are times that we can prioritize certain things more and certain things less. And one of the visuals that I find really powerful is the visual of a dial. There are times when we need and want to dial up and there are times that we need and want to dial down. And how we do that really is up to us and how we choose to prioritize things.

(21:58):
And sometimes we don’t always get our way, that’s life. Sometimes we have to make choices, but at the same time, we also know that when we say I’m making the choice to get my workout in this morning because I can and I get to that, that’s a priority that you’re choosing. And it’s important because it is for you and it’s not because somebody else says you should because the other piece, we’re not listening to what we should be doing. But instead, because we know it’s a commitment we’ve made to ourselves and that we’ve identified, that is something that is really essential in our lives. And the most powerful thing that I think that we can recognize is when we need to say yes to less with all the other stuff and how we then can start to make space for these things we get to do to minimize or mitigate how they become the have tos. And we actually find that bandwidth to be able to enjoy and really engage in it.

Cori (23:05):
I love that phrase, say yes to less because I think that really is in the heart of the busy being a four letter word. We think of all the things we should do have to do, even the things we get to do are in there, but it’s all these things. And we often even turn to trying to do more when we want to hit our why, when we want to reach our goal, and then we get super frustrated because the effort doesn’t always equal the outcome. And a lot of times we feel like we’re giving so much more to get what we’ve gotten back in return. And a lot of it isn’t actually the changes we’ve made, the things we’ve done truly in direct progress towards our goal. It’s all these other things that we just feel like we should add in. And the more we do go back to that why, but even consider, what does your lifestyle truly look like right now?

(23:51):
What are your should feelings, your have to feelings, your get to feelings or things and looking at the person you want to become with the goal that you want to achieve, what are maybe the shoulds have to get to potentially there? And what does that lifestyle look like? Because I think in a lot of that reflection, we’ll realize a lot of the extra things we’re even doing that have absolutely no relevance to where we want to go. And we’re clogging up a lot of our mental space, our time with those things over saying, Hey, here’s one other thing that is part of the lifestyle that I want to lead part of the person I want to become. How can I add that in and shift my priorities? Because in doing that, something that was a should or a have to might get to become a get to or it might even completely fall off the list. But we’ve got to do that honest assessment of where we’re at and where we want to go because we do let busy become our excuse and it ultimately slightly holds us back.

Liz (24:50):
It’s true. And I think when we have that vision of who we want to become or in some ways it’s what do I want things to look like? And whether you use a week, a month, a year, three years, five years, wherever you are in your stage of life, if you will, for some people a week out is far enough for others, five years, it might be a certain benchmark in your life, a milestone in your life, but whatever it is is really taking a moment to step back and say, what do I want that to look like? And then reverse engineering and really taking it step by step backwards of what do I need to do starting today to move in that direction? What are the actions that I can do now that will move me in that direction starting now, not in two weeks, not in a month.

(25:53):
I’ll get to it next year when I don’t have to be the room parent for. So-and-so’s class, and it goes on and on and on. And I think this is the biggest shift that as people who are fully engaged in our lives, and I always say that a full life is a great life. It’s prioritizing what you want to fill your life with. And one of the things that is I think an evolution process for many people is getting to a place where we have the confidence to say, my plate is as full as I would like. Not my plate is full. My plate is as full as I would like. That’s my choice. And I may have said yes to, I may have not agreed to do some things that aren’t serving me as well, may have decided that these things that I’ve been doing forever aren’t serving me because I’m focusing on what I want to look like in five years or be light in five years, and that’s my north star, that is my guiding star that I am moving toward in that direction.

(27:07):
And I think when we have the power of that vision, now the first thing is sitting back and really starting to articulate it too. I mean that’s not easy, is that starts to align our decisions and it gives us the opportunity to do it with confidence and really lean into it, leaning into those get tos and saying it with confidence. I know I’ve got 50 other things to do, but I get to go do my workout right now and leaning into it with not letting those other things become the detractors and those pressures. And I think that’s a huge, huge movement that can change the trajectory of that long-term vision.

Cori (27:55):
It is that shift, and going back to even what you said of don’t do it in two weeks. If someday is going to be the day, why not make someday today? But in that you have to give yourself something actionable. And with you talking about doing more of less, saying yes to doing less and even thinking about what’s on your plate and making sure it’s only as full as you’d like, it really got me to thinking even about with trying to get started to find your get tos to know you’re doing it for you to really prioritize things. Even making a list of all the things you do in a day and saying, do I really need to be doing all of these things every single day or are there overlapping things? Are there things not serving me well? But even then, taking that list and crossing things off and prioritizing maybe a circle around three different things, it can really highlight some of the wasted energy that we’re spending on things or things that we’ve kept in because they fit a different part in our life, but we never really assessed what we need.

(28:51):
Now off of this, if you were to give someone a way to take action today versus saying someday, what would be three things you would have them do to recognize the get tos versus the have tos? Recognize that language and even potentially realize and own that they are doing these things for themselves. And that is a positive empowering thing, not a selfish thing.

Liz (29:14):
Yeah, it’s such a great question because everybody is so different. Everybody approaches things differently. Some people get up in the morning and they start the day great, and then within an hour and a half something goes south and it completely derails them for the rest of the day. But I think the overarching theme, if you will, or I should say effort that can really be turned into almost this momentum is what are the things that you want to get to do? What are those things? When we know when we can articulate and we know what are these things that we get to do and can do and we can articulate it and we can put it up on the refrigerator on a sticky note that we look at every single day multiple times, then we’re more likely to look at those and incorporate them into our day-to-Day lives, looking at priorities.

(30:05):
I would say that’s one of the biggest things. Like you say, what do you do in a day? Where are things that really and truly don’t align with your doing it for yourself, your get tos? Are they things that can be maybe dismissed or changed? And I think the final thing is, is know that every day is not going to be perfect. This is not about perfection. This is not about doing things for yourself and all of a sudden it being magically perfect. It’s this messy, imperfect lives that we live. We love them and we learn from them. And what can you learn from today if you got up and say, I get to do my workout, and then it still didn’t happen, what do you learn from that? It’s not a you thing, it’s a thing. It’s not a you thing. So what is it that needs to go maybe one step further on that?

(31:02):
Yes, you get to maybe it’s the wrong time of day. So those are the things I think strategically when you know what your get to list is, right? And I’ll be honest, sense of humor. Okay, so sense of humor about failing and getting back up again and all that. That can be really helpful when you have get tos that all of a sudden become half tos. But it really is, I think, articulating what it is that are your get tos, prioritizing those within the context of your lifestyle, not your next friend, your best friend or your neighbors or your sister-in-laws or somebody else’s, but within the context of your life of what is doing it for you. And understand that as much as sometimes those distractions that are all around us, the noise around us every day, all day, what’s most important is what’s important to you? What is essential for you? Is it friends? Is it family? Is it you’re lifting a heavier dumbbell for your bicep curls? Is it that you’re going to hit your macros within two grams? You name it, you decide it and then you go after it?

Cori (32:14):
Yes, that’s the perfect way to end it. Yes, go after it. But I have to add to that, with everything you were saying, it even made me think it’s not just the habits or the actual tasks that we’re doing that we get to do. It’s the learning from the failures. It’s the mindsets behind it. And I think we don’t even consider that sometimes when we’re thinking about get tos, but hey, I get to learn from doing something new and probably failing at it. And if we can think about the get tos behind even some of the actions, it can really help. Not to mention, I love that you brought up a slight change to our environment, seeing the things that you prioritize, seeing, the things that you value, because we don’t realize how much our habits are a product of our environment. And the more we put those things forefront, the more those visual reminders.

(33:02):
As silly as, I mean I sometimes think it’s silly to have a quote or whatever else, but I have my to-do list. And in a weird way, that’s the same thing. It’s creating the environment, putting out the clothes you go work out. All these things are visual reminders, changing your environment to remind you of the things you get to do. And we have a lot of visual reminders, often of the have tos. So why not use that in that positive direction to put us in a positive mindset? And again, still not every day is going to be perfect, but it can really help.

Liz (33:30):
And it really is the overall, it’s the way that we approach it overall. I mean, I look at the three pillars, vision, desire, action, and how we put that together for ourselves with the support of somebody else, with the support of a coach, with the support of experts. But it really is ours. And I think that’s one of the things that is really important for all of us to remember that this is our decision and choice as to how we want that to look and really making sure that it’s coming from our heart, it’s coming from what we see. And then behind all that is your strategy and plan. I call the nuts and bolts and the vision. So we can do nuts and bolts all day long, but if you don’t have the vision, we don’t know what we’re building.

(34:23):
I think even within those nuts and bolts comes that attitude. How am I approaching those nuts and bolts, right? Am I loving them or not? And the piece that I think can really be impactful from just an emotional change is from the learning perspective, is always remain curious, always have a curiosity about the why, whether it’s your why or a why that somebody else is trying to explain to you. But always remain curious about what can happen, what can occur, what can you do? Because when we remain open and we sit in some discomfort sometimes, and we get a little sticky and icky in some places, and we don’t necessarily know why, a lot of times if we remain open, I always say, you have to remain open to receive. If you sit there with clothes like it’s not working, I can’t do this, it’s all terrible, it’s all have toss, take me away.

(35:27):
And you’re not open to receive. You’ll never see it. It’ll go right by you. And I think one of the things that we can do for ourselves is always ask, are we open to receiving? Are we remaining curious? Are we allowing ourselves to shift the way we look at things, our attitude toward even the nuts and bolts of things, or are we letting those things just stew? And I think when we start to really look at that bigger picture, if you will, all of a sudden you start to see so much more, and not just what we’re capable of, but what we want to be capable of.

Cori (36:11):
We see the potential, and I think there is nothing better that we could do even today, is just to be open, be curious, sit down, and really think what are things I’m saying I have to do and how can I reframe them as things I get to do? Using that and as a powerful tool to even tie in things, to really inspire ourselves, not to get into that have to mode, but to get into that positive mindset of embracing our choice and our decisions to really reach our why and make our vision come true. Thanks for listening to the Fitness Hack podcast. Again, this is the place where I share all my free work, workout, nutrition tips. I’m never going to run sponsorships or ask you to buy anything. All I ask in return is if you’re enjoying the podcast to leave a rating, review or share it with someone you think it might help.
