3 KEY POINTS:
1. We need to create the habit of believing in ourselves.

2. Realize you’re going to reach your limits. They can either hold you back or you can adjust on the spot and find a way to keep moving forward.

3. Think about how you talk to yourself and be aware of the language you use!

MORE ABOUT THIS EPISODE:
In this episode we talk with Justin Levine, owner of California Fitness Academy and author of Limitless: A Man’s 300 mile run to prove Anything is Possible. Justin reminds us that so much of what we feel we can achieve is determined by self-imposted limitations. And that we need to create the habit of believing in ourselves. How we talk to ourselves and who we surround ourselves with is very important.

Justin reminds us that it is about being flexible and adapting on the spot when we do run into obstacles or reach “our limits.” That to go further than we thought possible, all we need to do is start with taking a small step forward, one little positive action.
