Workout: End Procrastination

So let me ask you guys a question. How many of you in this room actually know how to improve your life? You already know where to focus on your life, and you probably know what to do, but you haven't done it yet. Be honest. Raise your hands. Because who knows exactly what you need to do to change already, right? People say, oh, I want to lose weight, Brendan. I don't know why I haven't lost weight. I'll say, do you know how? Yes. Have you gone to the gym? So people know what to do, it's that they failed to do it. That essence is called common sense. We know what to do, but the failure in the practice comes from a failure, sometimes of will, sometimes of circumstance. But here's what I'd love you to do. If you're failing to implement something you know you should already do, please tune in. Your vision for your life is stuck to today. Your vision is stuck to yesterday. Because if you have a different vision for your life and you know what to do, and that vision is compelling, that vision is something that is real and important and exciting for you, guess what? You do it. If it's a fake vision, a half vision, a mimicry vision, a follow the leader vision, not your vision. That's why you're not doing the basics right. If you haven't lost the weight, you don't have a vision for your life healthfully yet. You want to lose pounds, but you haven't envisioned a healthy life. So even the commonsensical things, you don't do it right. Think about that dream you have. You know, you want to write. Like, my dream was to be a writer and a coach, right? I want to be a writer. And I. I want to be a life coach or business coach. Okay, cool. That's what I wanted to do. Common sense says Brendan, sit down and write every day. But I didn't see it yet. I didn't visualize that vision and own that dream yet. It was an idea, but it wasn't a vision in my heart. I didn't see it, feel it, walk through it. And so I would lay in bed every morning and I would visualize myself, see a vision of my future on a stage. And I would see myself walking to one side and saying something amazing. And they would stand on their feet because I said something amazing. And then I went to the other side and I said something equally amazing. And all the amazing just kept coming out. And people would stand and they would shout and they would scream, and I would see it. And as I was visualizing that vision of myself, guess what? I would be sitting in bed in complete anxiety. I'd be sweating out the armpits. You ever dream of your vision of your future and it makes you sweat? You've never seen a vision of your future and it kind of freaked you out. If you haven't, you're not dreaming big enough yet, babe. But I'm here to tell you a lot of the reason people don't take daily, real, practical, common sense efforts towards their dreams is they don't see the dream yet. They haven't laid awake and thought about it long enough. They thought, wouldn't that be nice? There's a difference between wouldn't that be nice? And I own this dream. It is in my heart. It is in my legs. It is in my body. I feel it, I sense it. That's mine. Let's go. You don't luck into that.
