5 Reps: Every rep, bad thing, and good elements

Here are a few short thoughts this week.

 

Money

1.

"We become good at what we practice even if what we practice is not good for us."

- Dandapani

 

Health

1.

Every rep that you do is a vote for the person you want to become. And every excuse you make is a vote for the person you are trying to leave behind. That’s the process. Rep by rep. Black and white. Ones and zeroes. Did you do the thing or not.

2

Most coaching is just removing stuff that gets in the way.

 

Relationships

1

Complaining about a problem even if it is unfair and unjust doesn’t solve the problem and is therefore a waste of time.

2

Just because a fire can burn, doesn’t meant mean we stop using it to cook. Most bad things have good elements.
