Habit Stacking for Success: Daily Disciplines, Resilience, and Body Optimization

In this episode, we explore Full Fueled's approach to habits and habit stacking. Using a daily tea plan as a metaphor, we discuss the power of small disciplines and overcoming challenges with habitual resilience. We emphasize self-evaluation through the daily 33 to 1 reflection and the 6 pillars of optimization, highlighting the exponential impact of consistent habits. Sponsor messages from Nutrition Solutions and Fullfield 15 are included. We also discuss the role of lean muscle mass in body optimization and revisit the Full Fueled mission, focusing on unlocking genetic potential. Join the Full Fueled optimizers community!

00:00:00
Think usually where where that comes is, like, that reflection period, you use something that

00:00:05
you do right now as you use the mornings for a more meditative state.

00:00:09
I wouldn't really use those as a review state.

00:00:12
I think it's projecting what, is to come.

00:00:16
And then at night, when you evaluate for, like, 5 minutes, that's a great time just to, like,

00:00:22
draw a circle.

00:00:23
Welcome to the Full Field podcast.

00:00:25
I'm gonna set what the new

00:00:26
normal looks

00:00:26
like in my life.

00:00:27
You're not limited by your genetics.

00:00:27
You have

00:00:28
our superpower that is if the people are.

00:00:29
So, unfortunately,

00:00:29
most businesses aren't gonna use the highest quality ingredients.

00:00:33
What's

00:00:37
your approach?

00:00:38
Jacked.

00:00:38
I know he's Jacked.

00:00:39
That's why I'm asking him.

00:00:40
I'm like he's changed.

00:00:40
I don't think he lives.

00:00:42
Yeah.

00:00:42
It's consistency in everything that we do that really compound.

00:00:46
Only way we're gonna get the word out is with you.

00:00:48
Live full fueled.

00:00:49
Live the on limits, baby.

00:00:51
Let's go.

00:00:53
Welcome to the Full Fueled podcast with your host, Matt Taich.

00:00:57
And doctor Alfred Alessi.

00:01:00
What's up, man?

00:01:01
Today, we're, gonna be talking about some habits and habit structure.

00:01:05
I know you're rolling through a book right now.

00:01:08
I'm a big believer in Atomic Habits by James Clear.

00:01:10
But the habit mechanic, I believe you're reading through.

00:01:13
Who's the author on that?

00:01:16
Doctor John.

00:01:17
Doctor John Finn.

00:01:19
Doctor John Finn.

00:01:21
Yeah.

00:01:21
He's a cool man.

00:01:21
He's psychologist.

00:01:23
It's a good book, man.

00:01:24
You know, it's very practical and it's like stuff you can implement, but it's not

00:01:28
overwhelming because that's the whole thing with habits is like everyone's like, oh, I'm

00:01:32
going to get healthy in the New Year.

00:01:33
I'm going to start drinking a gallon of water.

00:01:36
I'm going to start working out every day.

00:01:37
I'm going to start doing X.

00:01:38
And they stack like 10 habits and then they do none.

00:01:41
You know what I mean?

00:01:42
Where it's like it's like start with 1 pick one thing that you can repeat on a daily basis when

00:01:46
it gets to be no longer really a habit, but more so like you're just your daily routine and

00:01:51
non negotiable.

00:01:52
Now add another one.

00:01:53
You know what I mean?

00:01:54
And so that's kind of like the thing.

00:01:56
These are like do the stuff.

00:01:58
The first couple of things we're going to talk about today are things that take you 30 seconds

00:02:01
to do.

00:02:02
Right?

00:02:02
Everyone has 30 seconds.

00:02:03
So it's and it's and it's powerful.

00:02:05
So, yeah, I

00:02:08
people do and people do stuff every day.

00:02:10
That's what, James Clear talks about a ton.

00:02:13
Right?

00:02:14
It's like, what do you do every single day that then you could add something to that takes

00:02:19
maybe less than 5 seconds to add that to?

00:02:22
So one of the things that I've done is, okay, I like drinking a cup of coffee in the morning.

00:02:27
But before coffee, you gotta drink water.

00:02:29
Right?

00:02:30
And so I drink water and then I drink a cup of coffee.

00:02:34
So that's one thing that I've done.

00:02:37
But another thing that I've done just as a just pure habit structure is before I get in the

00:02:43
shower, I do core work because I know I'm gonna get sweaty anyway.

00:02:47
Or I know, like, so I'm gonna get, like, just my central nervousness is gonna get a little

00:02:51
hotter.

00:02:51
It might get a little sweaty, but I'm going into the shower anyway.

00:02:54
So what does that matter?

00:02:55
So I dedicate 3 minutes of core workout before I get in the shower.

00:02:59
So those are just some of the habits that I've stacked that I'm like, okay.

00:03:03
Not everyone, like, is gonna do the core work right before the shower, but it's a great time

00:03:07
to do it.

00:03:08
I'm not gonna lie to you, because I'm taking the shower regardless.

00:03:12
Like, regardless, I'm taking a shower.

00:03:14
So why not add something to that?

00:03:16
It's the same thing with brushing your teeth.

00:03:17
Like, if you put a glass of water by your toothbrush, well, you're more apt to drink that

00:03:22
glass of water, before you brush your teeth.

00:03:26
And then there's another thing too that he's that he does is putting a book by your toilet.

00:03:32
Right?

00:03:32
Because the reality is is likely everyone's gonna take a shit every day.

00:03:36
Right?

00:03:36
Every day.

00:03:37
And it's probably gonna be at the, like, in the same toilet.

00:03:41
Right?

00:03:42
So Yeah.

00:03:43
There there there's a high percentage of likelihood.

00:03:45
So it's like putting the odds in your favor.

00:03:47
And then when a book's there, well, you know, great time to take a poop and read a couple

00:03:54
pages.

00:03:54
Let's offload some stuff and unload some knowledge.

00:04:00
That's great, man.

00:04:01
That's good.

00:04:02
Yeah.

00:04:02
You know, like my house, if you come into my condo, like, I live alone.

00:04:05
So, like, I don't care.

00:04:06
I don't have to clean up for anyone.

00:04:08
My dinner table is where I do, like, my studies and stuff and my journaling.

00:04:12
So, like, every night before I go to bed, I have my Bible here, I have my journal, and then

00:04:16
I have the book I'm reading.

00:04:18
And they're right next to each other with a 32 ounce mason jar and then my little espresso

00:04:23
cup.

00:04:23
They're empty, but I put them there so that when I wake up, you know, I brush my teeth,

00:04:28
take my my supplements and whatever.

00:04:30
I come out here and I get into my word.

00:04:33
I fill my cup up with water and salt and then I have my espresso.

00:04:36
And so it's like, that's a habit, right?

00:04:38
And that's stacking those things together.

00:04:40
So I do that every single morning.

00:04:43
The dude, the first thing that this book teaches you that's so cool that I've been doing

00:04:47
every day and it has made me get better at, you know, my goal was to meditate every day.

00:04:54
Like, that's the thing.

00:04:54
I was like, Man, I keep missing that or I'm forgetting it or I'm putting it off or stuff

00:04:58
getting me busy, you know?

00:05:00
So I was like, I need I like this is so good for me and my mental state and my nervous

00:05:04
system.

00:05:05
So he calls it the daily t plan.

00:05:08
T is spelled t e a, but the t e a stands for tiny empowering action.

00:05:13
So it's like this tiny empowering action you can do every day that's gonna elevate yourself

00:05:17
or get you closer to your goals.

00:05:18
And it's specific to you.

00:05:20
Right?

00:05:20
So I'll kind of go through it, kind of the steps and then how to create an, like, an

00:05:25
example of it.

00:05:26
Right?

00:05:26
So I'll basically kind of like read this, but, the first thing is you have to rate yourself.

00:05:31
So step 1 of the daily t plan is rating yourself.

00:05:33
How well did you do your best to be your best and achieve your goals yesterday or so far

00:05:38
today?

00:05:38
Right?

00:05:39
Depending on how you wanna do it.

00:05:41
So you could go 0 to 10.

00:05:43
You could say, you know, great to to not great.

00:05:47
You could do, like, a smiley face, not smile.

00:05:49
However, you want to rate yourself.

00:05:50
Just rate yourself right.

00:05:51
That way you're kind of keeping yourself accountable.

00:05:53
You can look back and be like, all right.

00:05:54
You know, I'm going to put myself for yesterday.

00:05:56
Honestly, I was like an 8 man.

00:05:58
Like, I, I definitely accomplished a lot of stuff that we said we're going to that morning.

00:06:02
I did do my meditation.

00:06:04
So, like, I was, you know, I was on point with kind of what I was trying to get.

00:06:08
So that's step 1, rate yourself.

00:06:10
How did you do yesterday or, you know, today if if you're going with today?

00:06:14
Step 2, create the tiny empowering action.

00:06:17
So some examples would be like, I only wanna check the news once today.

00:06:22
I'm gonna go for a 5 minute walk at lunchtime, or I wanna eat I wanna drink 24 ounces of water

00:06:28
before I leave the house.

00:06:29
Right?

00:06:30
Or, I'm not going to check my Instagram until 9 AM.

00:06:33
That's something that I've already dialed in as, like, a habit.

00:06:36
Right?

00:06:36
But it started out with this.

00:06:38
I don't check social media until 9 AM.

00:06:40
I get everything else done first.

00:06:41
So then you could you write down that t right today?

00:06:44
I'm going to x y z.

00:06:46
And then so that is then kind of based like where you will rate yourself the next day is

00:06:51
like, did I get that done?

00:06:52
Did I not?

00:06:53
And then step 3 is more of like self accountability, but it's explaining yourself

00:06:57
why.

00:06:58
So this will take you, man.

00:06:59
This will take you less than a minute to do.

00:07:01
Rate yourself, write down your your tiny empowering action, and then underneath it, why?

00:07:06
Why am I gonna do that?

00:07:07
So for me, it's I was an 8 out of 10 yesterday.

00:07:09
I was I was pretty dialed in.

00:07:11
Today, my tiny empowering action is gonna be to meditate for 5 minutes in on my lunch break.

00:07:16
And then why?

00:07:17
Because it calms my central nervous system, allows me to be more present, and will allow me

00:07:21
to then reach the goals that we have set for our business.

00:07:24
Business.

00:07:24
So it's pretty pretty awesome.

00:07:25
I love the daily tea plan.

00:07:26
It's been great.

00:07:27
I have a space in my journal that I do it, so big fan of it.

00:07:32
Yeah.

00:07:32
The one thing that, we were talking about actually prior to this, and I think that it's

00:07:39
good to point out because, like, it's good to be vulnerable too, is, like, there's gonna be

00:07:44
seasonalities.

00:07:45
But, like, building these levels at the end of the day, habits are discipline.

00:07:49
And so the quality of your habits are gonna be the quality of your discipline.

00:07:54
And so one thing for me, Hurricane Milton, I'm telling you, like going through 2 hurricanes

00:08:00
and not knowing really the anxiety that it was putting on me, because I feel like I'm pretty

00:08:05
even keel when it comes to, like, just like big events coming through.

00:08:09
But, the amount of media attention that's absorbed and all that, it, like, literally

00:08:14
deflates you.

00:08:15
And I'm not gonna lie.

00:08:16
I was just telling to you, I was like, dude, like, deflated right now a little bit.

00:08:20
So much fear, dude.

00:08:22
There's so much fear mongering.

00:08:24
Right?

00:08:24
And so it's like we had to, my wife and I, during this, we had to, like, legitimately say

00:08:30
goodbye to our house.

00:08:31
If if the case that it, like, basically flooded, we're like, goodbye.

00:08:35
You know?

00:08:36
We did as much as we could, But the reality is we live on the water and your car flooded, you

00:08:42
know, up to 6 feet during hurricane Helene.

00:08:45
So I was like, dude, if your car flooded, we're on the river.

00:08:49
Be a very well like hurricane Milton.

00:08:51
What they're saying, a 15 foot flood surge.

00:08:53
Our house is underwater.

00:08:54
And so we had to say goodbye to our house.

00:08:56
So, like, we're leaving for Orlando, and I'm like, it didn't really hit then, but it's like,

00:09:01
dang, like, you know, you're thinking about it and how much that actually takes away from you.

00:09:05
You're like, alright.

00:09:05
There's a little anxiety in that that you're gonna come home, and it's like your house your

00:09:09
house is just gonna be completely ruined.

00:09:12
So then there's this element of, like, kind of relief too when you come back, but then your

00:09:17
house is just, like, in mayhem.

00:09:19
And so, we've spent the last, you know, couple days, like, obviously, coming back and putting

00:09:25
our house back together, but then it becomes like I did I didn't get to work out for a few

00:09:30
days.

00:09:31
You know, I was telling you I have a few injuries.

00:09:33
So, like, those things come against you.

00:09:36
Now it's the power of your habits to getting like, creating the disciplines that are so

00:09:41
important of those tiny daily wins that you're talking about.

00:09:45
Yeah.

00:09:45
Like, going for a walk, you know, meditating, getting up, getting in the word, drinking water

00:09:52
and making sure you're taking care of your health, in the process because those are the

00:09:57
disciplines that are ultimately going to shorten the gap for you to get out of, like,

00:10:01
kind of that season a little bit more quickly.

00:10:03
And so for me, it, like, definitely hit me hard.

00:10:06
I'm saying, like, I'm probably a little bit on the backside of it and moving out of the

00:10:11
direction of where I need to head.

00:10:13
But, like, it was a lot.

00:10:14
It was frickin it was a ton, man, especially knowing, like, even the clinic.

00:10:20
Right?

00:10:20
A little bit of worry because I'm like, dude, it ain't it ain't it's not like it's like that

00:10:24
far away from the river.

00:10:26
Who knows what happens?

00:10:28
All these things.

00:10:28
And it definitely did shut us down for a period of really it shut us down for a period of

00:10:33
almost a week, really, because there was people canceling.

00:10:37
You know, people are freaking out.

00:10:40
So it's just all the things that kind of come into place that you're just like, all right,

00:10:44
now we got to get back to basics.

00:10:46
And that's really what the basics are, is that you're talking about these small daily

00:10:50
disciplines that are small wins, right, that you can come back to the heart of gratitude

00:10:55
like mine.

00:10:56
My wife and I started doing, like, just praying.

00:10:58
Right?

00:10:58
She takes a prayer one night.

00:11:00
I take a prayer another night.

00:11:01
And it's just like that prayer of gratitude of, like, god, just let us sleep tonight.

00:11:05
I mean, we went with power.

00:11:06
We just got power in yesterday.

00:11:08
So we went with power for a full week, where you're, like, taking cold showers and you're

00:11:13
not feeling really clean after a cold shower.

00:11:15
Still sweating after.

00:11:16
Yeah.

00:11:18
It's like Yeah.

00:11:19
You know what I mean?

00:11:19
It's it's all these things that you just you have to, like, kind of bounce back from.

00:11:24
But these small, tiny daily disciplines are, like, that's what keeps you moving forward.

00:11:30
And, I know that for me, hands down, it's some of these, like, small disciplines of, like,

00:11:35
yeah.

00:11:35
Alright.

00:11:35
I need to drink water.

00:11:36
I need to get my electrolytes in me.

00:11:37
I need to get to the gym and work out.

00:11:39
You need to do these things because those are what create the small wins that are ultimately

00:11:44
gonna be a bigger impact down the road.

00:11:46
Well, dude, prime example.

00:11:47
That's what kept me grounded during that whole weekend.

00:11:50
Right?

00:11:50
Like, I live here on the water.

00:11:51
Like, I this building is is old.

00:11:54
You know?

00:11:55
If the hurricane would have hit, like, full speed, like, they were saying, like, category

00:11:58
5, this building might have been been destroyed.

00:12:00
And so, like, I'm at my parents' house, like, holding down there for that could have gotten

00:12:05
wrecked too.

00:12:05
So, like but the thing that kept me grounded was these daily habits, man.

00:12:08
Like, I still woke up.

00:12:10
I still drank my water.

00:12:11
I did my espresso.

00:12:12
I did my journal.

00:12:13
I did my my Bible.

00:12:14
Right.

00:12:15
I was doing all the things that I do every single day.

00:12:17
And that's because it's been the last 4 or 5, 6 months that I've created habits that are now

00:12:21
just like, that's what I do.

00:12:23
Right?

00:12:23
Like, when I was, like, packing to go stay at my parents house, I didn't bring much, but I

00:12:28
brought my stuff that I do my daily habits.

00:12:30
You know what I mean?

00:12:31
And so it was like, I'm not going to miss that man because, like, that's how you keep that

00:12:34
structure and then you get right back into it, man.

00:12:37
They praise God.

00:12:37
Like, nothing catastrophic.

00:12:39
Right?

00:12:39
Like, we didn't have, like, anything insane.

00:12:41
So it's great, man.

00:12:44
You know, the the next one that he he goes through in this book is actually really great

00:12:49
kind of segue off of that.

00:12:50
It's all about, like, gratitude and kind of reflection.

00:12:53
So it's like, obviously, there's some reflection in the daily tea plan, but most of

00:12:57
that is more so, like, setting a goal or, like, kind of, like, you know, hey.

00:13:01
Why am I gonna do something?

00:13:01
Here's what I'm gonna do.

00:13:03
The next one, he calls it the daily 33 to 1 reflection.

00:13:06
So, like, 3 colon 1.

00:13:08
And so, basically, it's again, 30 seconds to a minute is what it's gonna take you to do this

00:13:13
more if you want to to, like, really reflect and meditate on it.

00:13:16
But three things that you're either grateful for, that you love, or that just, like,

00:13:20
happened that were positive.

00:13:21
Right?

00:13:22
Positive reflections, 3.

00:13:23
Right?

00:13:24
So, you know, it'd be like, I got to see my boys.

00:13:26
I hung out with my sons.

00:13:28
I saw my sister and her new baby.

00:13:31
Our house didn't get blown away.

00:13:32
Right?

00:13:33
Three positive things.

00:13:34
And then one thing that you're like, hey, I could have improved on this.

00:13:37
So it's like start with the gratitude, the positive stuff to really get you kind of more

00:13:40
into, like, a positive space.

00:13:42
And then more of like a, hey, like, this needs work or, you know, I didn't I didn't exercise

00:13:48
today.

00:13:49
Right?

00:13:49
Whatever it might be.

00:13:50
Tomorrow, I'm going to x y z.

00:13:52
So that's the 3 to 13 positives and then one thing that needs a little to be addressed or

00:13:57
need some some work, some effort.

00:13:59
And again, that's, like, more of an end of the day kind of thing.

00:14:03
Does he have, like is there, like, a little scorecard analysis?

00:14:06
Is there or is that just like basically is that 1 to 10 how you did that day?

00:14:11
In the on the t plan?

00:14:12
Yes.

00:14:13
It's like a one like again, you can rate it how you want, but I do 1 to 10.

00:14:16
So like, I just like that system.

00:14:18
It's easier.

00:14:18
Yeah.

00:14:20
But, yeah, that's basically how he does that.

00:14:23
Yeah.

00:14:23
I teach our guys to evaluate through a circle.

00:14:28
I can if

00:14:29
you see it back here, I don't know if you can see my whiteboard.

00:14:32
Yeah.

00:14:32
Did mine today, but I just draw a circle.

00:14:35
And then I do, kind of 6 pillars.

00:14:38
Right?

00:14:38
Mind, spirit, work, fuel, movement, sleep.

00:14:42
And then I go through 1 to 10 and just rate myself really quickly on those and then divide

00:14:48
that by 60.

00:14:49
So, like, whatever I get out of that.

00:14:52
And then I look at 1, and I'm like, hey.

00:14:54
Which one do I want to improve on today?

00:14:57
Yeah.

00:14:57
The most work.

00:14:58
Or 2.

00:15:00
So, like, if I'm dipping into 50, 60% of, like, optimized territory, alright.

00:15:06
How do I just bump that up to 65%?

00:15:09
Like, what is it that I just need to focus on to bump that up a few degrees?

00:15:13
And I can pick, like, 1 or 2.

00:15:15
In that case, like, maybe 3 is tops, but, like, you're not gonna take all 6.

00:15:19
Right?

00:15:20
Bump them all up at once, but it's how you pull levers, to grow from that.

00:15:24
So, I know this past week, I dipped below 60, and I was like, dang, man.

00:15:28
I gotta, like, I gotta pop myself up in some areas.

00:15:31
And so then what are those?

00:15:33
Well, that's why that reflection

00:15:34
is so important because if you're not doing that, then you're just gonna keep going about

00:15:38
life, and you're going to that 60 is going to be become 50, you're going to become 40.

00:15:42
Now you're operating at, like, 30% of your, you know, your, capacity of what you can accomplish

00:15:48
and you're not going to be getting anything done.

00:15:50
So I think reflection is, I mean, key, man.

00:15:52
So that's honestly, that's good.

00:15:54
That's 3 exercises people can do.

00:15:56
Pick 1.

00:15:56
I wouldn't say do all 3.

00:15:58
Start with 1, whether it's the t plan, whether it's the 3 to 1 or doing the 6 pillars.

00:16:02
I like the pillars, man.

00:16:04
We came up with that, you know, when we when we started this podcast, kind of our our areas of

00:16:09
focus.

00:16:10
We have a graphic.

00:16:11
We'll add the graphic into this episode so people can see, but fuel movement, sleep, mind,

00:16:18
work, and spirit.

00:16:19
Right?

00:16:20
And then like you said, 0 to 10 scale on all of those, add those up, and that gives you a

00:16:25
percentage out of out of a 100.

00:16:26
Right?

00:16:27
So then it's you know, or whatever.

00:16:29
You do the math.

00:16:30
Figure it out.

00:16:31
But get your percent of

00:16:32
the divided by 60, and then you have to add a scale out of a 100, right, based on the

00:16:36
percentage.

00:16:36
Yeah.

00:16:37
And so then that kind of gives you, like, a grand scheme of here's how I'm operating.

00:16:40
Now you look and you're like, alright, sleep was sleep was 8 out of 10.

00:16:44
Exercise was 6 out of 10.

00:16:46
Work was 6 out of 10.

00:16:48
Spirit was 2 out of 10.

00:16:49
You're like, okay.

00:16:49
Like, I'm slacking in this area.

00:16:51
Now it's affecting, you know, other areas.

00:16:53
How do I boost that up to catch up and then ultimately improve my overall score?

00:16:58
So objective analysis of, you know, of life is awesome, man.

00:17:03
Yeah.

00:17:03
No.

00:17:04
It's it's crucial in understanding.

00:17:06
I think usually where where that comes is, like, that reflection period, you use something

00:17:11
that you do right now is you use the mornings for a more meditative state.

00:17:16
I wouldn't really use those as a review state.

00:17:19
I think it's projecting what is to come.

00:17:22
And then at night, when you evaluate for, like, 5 minutes, that's a great time just to, like,

00:17:28
draw a circle that I mentioned or use the t scale of, like, just having a 5 minute

00:17:33
reflection period of, like, what could I have done today to kind of boost performance or

00:17:39
whatever it might be, or go through your 3 daily gratitudes.

00:17:42
And then, hey, where's that boost boosting factor if I'm falling low and maybe, work or

00:17:49
fuel or whatever?

00:17:50
Like, you know, fuel is an easy one because it did I operate within, you know, the nutritional

00:17:55
guidelines that I said I would?

00:17:57
Right?

00:17:57
Did I hit my protein target?

00:17:58
Right?

00:17:59
That's an easy one for me.

00:18:00
Freaking gummy worms all day.

00:18:01
Yeah.

00:18:02
Go.

00:18:02
Yeah.

00:18:02
Exactly.

00:18:03
Yeah.

00:18:03
So that's an easy one for me, though, because I measure everything off our protein.

00:18:06
If I don't hit my protein targets, if I don't get over 200 grams of protein in a day,

00:18:10
optimally, 225 is what I set, then, like, I I didn't hit my nutritional target because I

00:18:16
wasn't I wasn't optimized.

00:18:17
Like I said, I was going to be.

00:18:19
So, like, every meal for me has to be balanced and portioned to protein.

00:18:23
So, like, did I get my, you know, like, chicken in?

00:18:25
Right?

00:18:26
When grocery shopping yesterday, did I get, you know, I'd lean light on fats and carbohydrates,

00:18:32
and I lean heavy on protein.

00:18:34
So did I get, you know, 2 protein shakes in a day?

00:18:38
I have 275.

00:18:39
Like, those are easy for me.

00:18:40
So, like, fuel is easy.

00:18:42
Movement, did I work out?

00:18:44
Right?

00:18:44
Did I walk?

00:18:45
Did I do these things?

00:18:47
And that's how, like, I'll measure myself based on, based on that.

00:18:52
So but, like, usually, what it comes down to is, like, mind, spirit, work.

00:18:55
Where am I where am I ebbing and flowing those areas, and how I truly can evaluate those?

00:19:01
Because, like, mine comes back of, like, did did yesterday, did I take the 5 minutes to,

00:19:07
like, measure my heart of gratitude?

00:19:09
Right.

00:19:10
That's more the mind.

00:19:11
Right.

00:19:12
And then that that is directly related to the spirit of, like, did I ask for discernment that

00:19:17
day from, like, the creator of the universe?

00:19:20
Yeah.

00:19:20
I should.

00:19:22
Like, yeah, tell me something that I need to know.

00:19:25
So so those are really important things to evaluate.

00:19:28
I think that's like that's just a cadence of, like, habit structure.

00:19:31
Right?

00:19:31
Something that takes you, you know, some of these things that you're mentioning take 30

00:19:36
seconds.

00:19:36
You know, some maybe take a couple of minutes, but, they

00:19:39
can go a long way once they compound.

00:19:42
Definitely, man.

00:19:43
Yeah.

00:19:43
You start stacking them again.

00:19:44
It's like I do I do 4 different habits at the same time that are, like, really empowering for

00:19:51
my body.

00:19:51
Right?

00:19:52
And my brain drinking water, doing my Bible study.

00:19:56
I read 10 pages of a book, which is this book I'm doing here, and then I journal and I dial

00:20:01
in my finishers journal, which we're both using, which awesome journal, by the way.

00:20:05
I'll plug it.

00:20:05
We don't have any affiliation with them, but the finishers journal is sick.

00:20:09
It's so good for if you've got it like a goal that you're you're trying to hit, whether

00:20:12
you're an entrepreneur, business, whatever, man, it is it it really gets you on focus.

00:20:17
So, you know, that's been that's been like an awesome factor for me.

00:20:22
But, yeah, I love these practical talks, bro, because, like, you know, like, people can just

00:20:27
take this stuff and then implement it.

00:20:28
Right?

00:20:28
And so we're like, really, you know, it's not hard.

00:20:31
It's just a matter of, like, doing it.

00:20:33
So we're here to, you know, just help you guys out with, you know, elevating you and giving

00:20:38
you structure and things that you can implement in your life that are not, again, not crazy

00:20:43
hard to do.

00:20:45
No.

00:20:45
They aren't.

00:20:45
I think it's I think it was a great podcast in terms of just being able to take 1 or 2 things

00:20:51
away.

00:20:52
And then scorecards, you're you're only as good as how you track your data.

00:20:55
Right?

00:20:56
What gets measured gets managed.

00:20:58
That's it, man.

00:20:59
Like, gets measured gets managed.

00:21:00
I love that.
