  Okay, y'all, I want to ask you something. I want you to think on this today,
• 0:45
  and you may need a little more time after this episode ends to think on it some more.
• 0:50
  But I want to ask you, what if I told you that the freedom and the peace that
• 0:58
  you have been praying for.
• 1:00
  Specifically in your health, right, for the sake of this podcast episode,
• 1:04
  but honestly, it can be applied to all in any area of life.
• 1:10
  What if that freedom and that peace is simply waiting on the other side and,
• 1:18
  of the exact thing that you keep avoiding, the thing you keep running from,
• 1:23
  the thing that feels the hardest in the world, right?
• 1:26
  Like, what if that's where the freedom is, if you would just look at it and
• 1:30
  face it and get to the other side?
• 1:33
  So we're going to talk about this today. It is something that has been really
• 1:36
  heavy on my heart for a while.
• 1:38
  In fact, it is something I am actively working to discern daily in how I'm going
• 1:44
  to start using it more in, you know, the future of this business and the future
• 1:51
  of our programs, because I think it's lost.
• 1:54
  I think we have just lost it. And I think it's the exact problem that so many
• 1:59
  people have is because it's lost and we don't take it seriously.
• 2:03
  And that is discipline. Okay.
• 2:09
  Discipline has become such a bad word. And I mean, rightfully so, right?
• 2:15
  As kids, discipline, you know, at school meant you're going to the principal's
• 2:20
  office, you were standing on the fence, you were, you know, having to write
• 2:23
  lines, you were doing whatever.
• 2:25
  And you know, it wasn't good, right? Discipline at home was,
• 2:29
  some of us were getting butt whoopings, we were getting grounded,
• 2:32
  we were getting the TV taken away.
• 2:35
  Discipline is not felt in our bodies like a good word.
• 2:41
  And so rightfully so, because we can't just be expected to leave the negativity
• 2:49
  behind from our childhood that's associated with that word and move into adulthood
• 2:54
  like, yes, I can't wait to have discipline.
• 2:57
  And so it can feel kind of ick,
• 3:00
  But I think maybe, I don't know, we may need to come up with a new word or like
• 3:04
  reframe it in our minds because I think our lack of discipline,
• 3:10
  especially in this world today where it feels like we shouldn't have to have
• 3:15
  any and everything should be given to us and this, that, and the other,
• 3:18
  because that's the message that's out in the world, y'all.
• 3:20
  I think it is costing us so much more than we realize. And so when we think
• 3:27
  about discipline, even just in this specific health space, right?
• 3:31
  Like let's take away, you know, getting spankings and all the things.
• 3:34
  But just thinking about discipline in weight loss or health,
• 3:38
  right? We think about restriction.
• 3:41
  We immediately think it's hard. Some of us, like our body's immediately tense
• 3:46
  when we think like, I just need to be more disciplined.
• 3:48
  Like some people, when they say that to me, they're just like, I know what to do.
• 3:52
  I just need to be more disciplined. It's like, what are you angry about, girl?
• 3:55
  You know, you automatically get that more frustrated tone when you talk about
• 4:00
  it, you know, or we think we just need to like white knuckle it through like a sucky day,
• 4:06
  you know, like it's going to suck, but I need to just grip it and do it anyway kind of thing.
• 4:12
  And that can be the way we think about discipline in the aspect of food,
• 4:17
  exercise, you know, anything that comes to mind when we're talking about health.
• 4:26
  And so unfortunately, right, like diet culture of our days has done that to us.
• 4:33
  And gosh, it just makes my mind kind of, I'm like, oh my gosh,
• 4:37
  10 years from now, what is diet culture of our days going to have done to us?
• 4:40
  But anyway, if we think back to the past 10, 15 years, you know,
• 4:44
  that is the message that was portrayed to us through things like, you know.
• 4:50
  Biggest Loser or, you know, these hardcore dieting programs where it's like
• 4:55
  you just put the pedal to the metal, you put your head down and you do it,
• 4:59
  and then you do get the result, right?
• 5:02
  And so while that can be, you know,
• 5:06
  a product of discipline. That can be how some would define discipline.
• 5:09
  I'm not, you know, I'm not going to argue with that.
• 5:11
  I want to encourage us to like, before we dive into this today,
• 5:15
  I want to encourage us to maybe reframe how we think about discipline so that
• 5:20
  it feels easier and it feels more, what's the word, like calm in our body.
• 5:27
  It feels more accepted in our day-to-day because it doesn't feel so angry and so, you know, I...
• 5:36
  Like so much like a grind mentality, if you will.
• 5:41
  So just to kind of start, Hebrews 12, 11 says, for the moment,
• 5:46
  all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, right?
• 5:49
  Like nobody said discipline is super fun, but for the moment,
• 5:52
  all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful
• 5:58
  fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
• 6:02
  So y'all, this means the act of discipline is loving, right?
• 6:08
  And it's on purpose by God, and it's meant to help us grow and mature spiritually.
• 6:15
  Okay, it's sanctification, right?
• 6:18
  And while no one is promising that discipline or sanctification is like always
• 6:22
  super fun and super easy, it should still be one of our like most desired paths on this earth.
• 6:31
  Right because if you think about it spiritually we are
• 6:34
  called to be more like jesus every single day and that
• 6:37
  process is never actually described as easy it's really really hard you know
• 6:42
  to be like jesus and so it's no one's promising that it's easy but they are
• 6:49
  promising that it's worth it and sometimes even i feel like our perspective
• 6:54
  on discipline and from a worldly view is just like.
• 6:58
  You just got to do it you know what I mean and that's really not how it is intended,
• 7:05
  you know like we want to do it from a place that
• 7:09
  feels aligned a place that feels like yes this is tough in the moment but it's
• 7:16
  worth it you know and not only not just to say you know one day when we face
• 7:21
  you know God for him to say like well done my good and faithful servant like
• 7:25
  yeah that's going to be awesome,
• 7:26
  right, if we stick to that discipline, but also so that we can fully step into
• 7:31
  the calling that he has for us, like on this earth right now.
• 7:36
  And so for a lot of us, if we're avoiding the discipline because it feels so
• 7:41
  angry or it feels so heavy or it feels so miserable or it feels so,
• 7:45
  you know, kind of how I described it as earlier, if we are avoiding it totally
• 7:50
  because of those feelings or any other reason,
• 7:55
  we are likely looking the other way on our calling.
• 8:02
  On what we're meant to be doing right now in this season of our lives, right?
• 8:06
  And then what does that do? That prevents God's full glory plan.
• 8:11
  You know, like if we are actively not stepping out when we are being told to
• 8:16
  step out and do things, if we are actively not sticking to the plan that we
• 8:20
  know that we should be sticking to.
• 8:22
  Then we are actively going against the plan that the Lord has for us,
• 8:29
  in turn interfering with the plan, right? Messing it all up.
• 8:36
  And so this is why like sometimes we can find ourselves feeling like a super
• 8:41
  deep internal gnawing when we're slacking in areas that we know better than to be slacking in.
• 8:49
  You know what I mean? And this is why a lot of times you'll find yourself,
• 8:52
  you know, trying at weight loss, feeling in your bones.
• 8:56
  You got to do something to get healthier, get your body healthier so you can do X, Y, Z, right?
• 9:01
  Like we've got all kinds of women and Ys. They want to, you know,
• 9:05
  live a longer, healthier life to be able to do more for the kingdom on this
• 9:09
  earth or, you know, be able to have the energy to pour into their children so
• 9:12
  that their children grow up and are able to, you know,
• 9:16
  be and do all that the Lord has for them.
• 9:19
  Or women who want to just have a clear mind and a healthy body so that they
• 9:24
  can be productive in their meaningful work, you know, in their jobs that they have here on earth.
• 9:29
  Like we have all kinds of whys for weight loss.
• 9:34
  And sometimes the why isn't even like it does. Sometimes you're like,
• 9:39
  gosh, it feels so strong and it feels so heavy.
• 9:41
  But then we always kind of drift away. Right.
• 9:47
  And so this is why you can feel that gnawing. Right.
• 9:51
  Because we know that the discipline is necessary to see the fruit. We know it. Period.
• 9:57
  Right. Now, I do want to just stay here. do not confuse this with the guilt
• 10:01
  of the world because the world will guilt us into not doing all kinds of things.
• 10:04
  Like, oh, you're not doing this. You're not a good mom.
• 10:06
  Oh, you're not doing that. You're not a good wife or good employee.
• 10:09
  Like, that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about in those quiet times.
• 10:13
  When the Holy Spirit gives us those gentle nudges, you know,
• 10:16
  reminding us, hey, remember we said we were going to do this and this isn't
• 10:20
  the path that we should be on right now.
• 10:22
  You know, that's what I'm talking about.
• 10:25
  And just like a personal note here,
• 10:29
  Y'all, I'm sitting here talking to you pregnant and so out of breath right now, by the way.
• 10:36
  And I would not be sitting here talking to you pregnant if it wasn't for this discipline.
• 10:45
  In my flesh, I did not want a third child.
• 10:50
  I did not want to get pregnant.
• 10:54
  I did not want to even try to get pregnant. We were so content with our lives.
• 10:57
  I mean, you can go back and listen to mine and Jess's episode on that several months back.
• 11:03
  If it was not for me feeling those nudges and actually obeying,
• 11:10
  then this kingdom plan would not be walked out.
• 11:13
  A little life would not be on coming to this earth. And like,
• 11:18
  who knows what her little life is going to do?
• 11:21
  You know, and so it's like, I know this depth that is, gosh,
• 11:28
  gut wrenching. You know what I mean?
• 11:31
  But in this same breath, the more obedient and more disciplined that I have
• 11:37
  become to what the Holy Spirit says, I'm walking it out right now,
• 11:41
  even with just like the business and the future of it.
• 11:43
  And like, what do you want, Lord, even though, gosh, it may be different than
• 11:47
  what my flesh wants, right? The more obedient and disciplined I have become
• 11:51
  to what the Holy Spirit says, I do feel just so much closer to God, right?
• 11:57
  Which gives me that confirmation that, okay, I'm on the right path.
• 12:00
  Okay, He's not going to let me go. He's going to hold me.
• 12:03
  I had a lady, a sweet lady at church who's been praying for me,
• 12:07
  and she said this to me, like, trust that God is holding you, you know?
• 12:12
  And just that by knowing, okay, I'm aligned with the Lord.
• 12:17
  I am aligned in my obedience and my discipline to what the Holy Spirit is telling me to do right now.
• 12:25
  I am being held and I can feel that.
• 12:29
  It makes a wild difference of how much less the worries of the world feel.
• 12:36
  You know, the heaviness of the worries of the world feels so much less when
• 12:41
  you are in that aligned state.
• 12:42
  When you clicked on this one, you didn't think it was going this way, did you?
• 12:47
  But it's true, right? And so all of this goes back to the discipline.
• 12:56
  And it's something so many women are lacking in their day-to-day lives.
• 13:01
  And again, it's causing them to resort to, because it doesn't stop the fact
• 13:05
  that you want to reach the goal, right?
• 13:08
  So it's causing them to resort to things that may not be ideal and it may not
• 13:15
  be meant for them to resort to.
• 13:19
  You know, the walk itself may have been part of the whole purpose, right?
• 13:25
  And if you skip to that just to get to the end goal, you missed it.
• 13:30
  You know, you missed the calling. You missed the plan.
• 13:34
  You missed his full glory. You know, we will never know what we missed, right?
• 13:38
  So I really just want to change the thought about discipline today.
• 13:43
  So we can think about it as the building of something instead of depriving ourselves of something.
• 13:50
  So like specifically to weight loss, we're looping back to weight loss, okay, and health.
• 13:55
  Thinking about discipline, you are building something by being disciplined.
• 13:59
  You are strengthening something. It is a muscle.
• 14:03
  You are doing bicep curls. The discipline is every rep, Okay,
• 14:07
  every rep builds that muscle stronger, right?
• 14:11
  And stop thinking of it as the depriving or deprivation of something,
• 14:16
  okay? Because discipline does not equal willpower.
• 14:18
  And a lot of people get that confused. A lot of people are like,
• 14:20
  I'm just going to have the discipline this week.
• 14:22
  And they're white knuckling and
• 14:23
  they're trying to willpower their way through. And that's not the same.
• 14:28
  Being disciplined is being rooted in knowing who and whose you are.
• 14:33
  And that alone makes the showing up feel like that much easier,
• 14:37
  right, to put in the reps.
• 14:39
  Now, I'm going to talk about three things that I really just feel like will
• 14:45
  help you to stay disciplined in your health and weight loss because I know this
• 14:51
  is a big struggle for a lot of people,
• 14:52
  but I do want to, because I want to remind you, right,
• 14:55
  discipline should not feel like doing a hundred things at once and barely surviving.
• 14:59
  Like, please do not hang up this episode and be like, okay, I'm about to make
• 15:02
  my to-do list and it's going to be 29 pages long because I got to bring the glory to God.
• 15:06
  So I got to drink my water. I got to go for a walk.
• 15:09
  I got to be a better mom. I got to be a better wife.
• 15:12
  No, that is not what we're talking about here, y'all. Okay, that is striving.
• 15:16
  That is excessiveness. That is the way of the world.
• 15:20
  Okay, it should not feel like you're doing 100 things and barely surviving.
• 15:23
  It should feel like you were aligned with where you need to be in this season.
• 15:28
  Okay, and yes, it may still be hard to be disciplined, but you feel a comfort
• 15:33
  in knowing that you can walk it out.
• 15:35
  So if you feel like you're ending most days in chaos, like doing things like
• 15:41
  stress eating or skipping meals or late night, like binging,
• 15:46
  you know, then these are signals that you're dysregulated.
• 15:48
  You probably already have too much on your to-do list.
• 15:51
  You know, your soul, your body is begging for some order. Okay.
• 15:58
  And so discipline is going to help bring that order. And then the order brings the peace.
• 16:03
  But again, you don't have to decide to find order in 50 areas of your life at once.
• 16:09
  Let's just talk about three, right? Because we're trying to reduce the chaos, not add more.
• 16:14
  So the first area that I feel like can help you stay disciplined in your health
• 16:21
  and overall wellness is really preying on this.
• 16:25
  And in Fruitful, in my journal, Fruitful, we talk about this,
• 16:31
  where you don't want to commit to the thing you think you should just because
• 16:39
  everybody else is doing it or that's what you read or that's what worked last
• 16:43
  time or whatever. Like, that's a big mistake.
• 16:46
  And if you commit to that and it doesn't feel comfortable in your body,
• 16:50
  then you're obviously more likely to break your discipline habit,
• 16:54
  you know, and go back the way you came, right?
• 16:57
  And so really preying on this, really getting comfortable with this,
• 17:00
  like it's not going to be a decision.
• 17:02
  Well, I don't know if it's been stirring in your heart, it may be a decision, you know, immediately.
• 17:06
  But if not, you know, you may have to spend some time praying about it before
• 17:09
  you get comfortable. but don't commit to the most miserable sound and thing first.
• 17:16
  With my PFM Plus people, when they come in, we talk about this and I'm like,
• 17:21
  okay, what sounds the easiest in your body right now? What feels the most comfortable in your body?
• 17:26
  Some people are so resistant to tracking their intake.
• 17:29
  And sure, that doesn't change the fact that tracking your food is going to help you lose weight, right?
• 17:34
  But if you're so resistant to it, then it's automatically going to feel 10 times
• 17:38
  harder to be disciplined to it, right?
• 17:41
  And so really thinking about and praying on what can I commit to that doesn't
• 17:48
  feel like the most miserable thing. I don't have to sit out here and just punish myself to death.
• 17:53
  Committing to that and sticking to it first. That's step number one.
• 18:00
  Really taking some time to figure out for yourself what will work best in this
• 18:05
  season and then committing to sticking to it however it needs to look for you.
• 18:09
  Because then you're going to be able to show up for it, right?
• 18:15
  You're going to be able to stick to the discipline of it.
• 18:18
  You're not going to, you know, make excuses and look the other way and find
• 18:22
  any reason to, quote, forget to do it today, right?
• 18:26
  Because it's going to feel the most comfortable in your body.
• 18:29
  And it's okay to warm up to a healthy weight loss or a healthy lifestyle.
• 18:34
  You can warm up. You don't have to go from a zero to 100 no matter what you think.
• 18:39
  Okay, so it's okay to warm up to it. So what would be the first step in warming
• 18:43
  up for you that doesn't feel like torture?
• 18:47
  The next step or the next thing to consider will be to habit stack.
• 18:53
  Okay, so that it feels easier to do. I've talked about habit stack off and on for years here.
• 18:59
  And I just really think it is so beneficial in every area of life.
• 19:03
  Where you take something that you already do, like clockwork.
• 19:09
  Like, you don't even think about it, you know?
• 19:12
  And then you layer something new that you were really trying to make a habit of.
• 19:21
  Okay, so if you've ever done a water for weight loss challenge with me,
• 19:27
  then, you know, we will suggest, you know, to get your ounces in,
• 19:31
  we'll suggest having 20 ounces of water while your coffee's brewing.
• 19:36
  If you're a daily coffee drinker, because that, you know, put a cup by your
• 19:40
  coffee pot and drink your 20 ounces before you have your coffee,
• 19:45
  because that helps you get your coffee in. I mean, it helps you get your water in earlier in the day.
• 19:51
  And it's something that you're going to do every day.
• 19:54
  You know, some of my clients have like sticky notes around places they know they're going to go.
• 19:59
  Like I have one that has a sticky note on her mirror, like where she's brushing her teeth.
• 20:06
  Okay. And it says like, do, I don't know what it says, like 10 squats,
• 20:09
  10, you know, wall push ups or something like that.
• 20:12
  Okay. And so she does 10 squats and 10 wall push ups before she brushes her
• 20:17
  teeth at least twice a day.
• 20:18
  Cause she going to brush her teeth at least twice a day.
• 20:21
  Right. We have others that every time they go to the bathroom,
• 20:24
  they try to do five squats.
• 20:26
  That's a habit stack. It's something you know you're going to do.
• 20:30
  You're going to go TT. You're going to brush your teeth. You're going to have your coffee.
• 20:36
  And you stack it with something that you really want to create a habit with
• 20:41
  that helps you with your health goals.
• 20:44
  And I think this is so important because we have all these goals and these desires for ourselves. right?
• 20:50
  Like it's not like we're always purposefully not doing the thing we set out
• 20:53
  to do, but we also get into daily rhythms, you know?
• 20:58
  And so it can just easily be forgotten or gone by the wayside.
• 21:03
  So it's super important to be intentional about setting a goal for yourself
• 21:08
  and also putting the parameters in place for how you're going to reach it.
• 21:12
  Like we can say all day long.
• 21:14
  I'm going to eat fruits and more fruits and vegetables.
• 21:17
  But if on the day you go grocery shopping, you forget to go to the fruits and
• 21:21
  vegetables section, I'm going to eat
• 21:23
  You ain't going to eat more fruits and vegetables or it's going to be 10 times as hard.
• 21:27
  You know, so you may, if you are a grocery shopper after Sunday or after church
• 21:32
  on Sunday, you may need to set yourself an alarm that says, you know,
• 21:36
  at 12 o'clock or whatever, when you're usually headed to the grocery store,
• 21:39
  don't forget to buy bananas and broccoli.
• 21:42
  You know, and that's okay. Like that's okay. It actually helps our mindset, right?
• 21:50
  And what's cool about this process is when you repeat a habit,
• 21:55
  a new habit like this, you know, like the squats or the water drinking or whatever,
• 22:01
  when you repeat it enough,
• 22:03
  it does actually become a habit.
• 22:05
  It becomes something that you crave or that you look forward to, you know?
• 22:11
  So like, I love this quote. Somebody said, what starts as discipline becomes
• 22:15
  a desire, right? And sometimes there are actions that are not just going to
• 22:21
  come easily to us, but we still want to do.
• 22:23
  So work smarter, not harder, right?
• 22:28
  Serve yourself by, you know, creating these stacks that help you achieve the
• 22:35
  things that you're wanting to achieve, even when they otherwise may not be the
• 22:39
  first thing on your mind, right? Right.
• 22:42
  Okay. And then my last suggestion here is to get quiet daily.
• 22:48
  And y'all, this is just so important and so powerful. And especially when you
• 22:53
  are trying to stay disciplined, especially when our flesh is going to want to
• 22:57
  not stay disciplined and not do the things, right?
• 23:01
  Getting quiet helps you remember the true reasons behind your actions,
• 23:08
  right it's to bring glory to God in all that you do but it also gives you that space to just.
• 23:16
  Like prepare for the day, plan for the day, think about what you want this day
• 23:22
  to look like, envision how you want things to go, right?
• 23:26
  If we wake up and we hit the ground running from the time our feet hit the floor,
• 23:31
  it is very, it's much more unlikely for us, we'll just say that,
• 23:36
  it's much more unlikely for us to create new habits and do more positive things
• 23:42
  and, you know, really have control of our day.
• 23:46
  Because a lot of times when we are not taking that time for ourselves and that
• 23:51
  time to be quiet and that time to be with the Lord, we are playing defense all
• 23:56
  day where we're just dealing with other people.
• 23:59
  We're just dealing with, you know, our calendar. We're just trying to take the
• 24:03
  day as it's thrown at us instead of coming from a position of power,
• 24:07
  which is, you know, these are the things I would like to see for myself today.
• 24:12
  And so how and when am I going to make them happen, right? That's the second part.
• 24:17
  A lot of people, a lot of people leave that part out. Like, I want to lose weight.
• 24:20
  Okay, how and when are you going to make that happen, right?
• 24:22
  If you don't answer those questions, then it's just another want.
• 24:25
  But again, that's lacking the discipline to actually follow it through, right?
• 24:29
  So getting quiet daily, whether that is, I mean, my preferred way is obviously
• 24:34
  waking up before the rest of the.
• 24:36
  And having quiet time with the Lord and really just kind of reflecting on what's
• 24:40
  ahead for me that day, it's going to change when this baby comes for a little while.
• 24:45
  And I'm really, I'm like actively praying through that and navigating like how,
• 24:48
  how, you know, Lord, how do you want me to handle this?
• 24:51
  Because I know I have to have this time for myself and we'll just see, right?
• 24:54
  We've got, I've got some ideas and some options, but we'll just see what this
• 24:57
  sweet baby girl allows in those first few weeks, you know, but for some people
• 25:03
  that's, you know, maybe not possible.
• 25:05
  And so can you drive to work with the radio off, right? Can you, and do it on your drive?
• 25:12
  And again, that requires discipline because a lot of us wanna just listen to
• 25:16
  a podcast and zone out on our drive, right?
• 25:18
  Or can you do it when you first get to work?
• 25:22
  Can you get to work five minutes early, close your office door and sit there
• 25:26
  and have your quiet time and do what you need to do to kind of feel like you've
• 25:30
  got a grip on the day and feel like you've got a grip on your discipline?
• 25:33
  You know, again, that takes discipline. A lot of people want to just go in and
• 25:37
  sit down, open their laptop and get started.
• 25:40
  Right? The sooner we get started, the sooner we get done. That's kind of our mentality.
• 25:43
  But in reality, we are so much more effective and efficient if we do get that quiet time.
• 25:50
  It's so funny how it works, but you got to trust me and try it, you know, and just see.
• 25:56
  And so when can you get it done? I prefer earlier in the day again,
• 25:59
  because you're wanting to kind of get ahead of the day and have control on your
• 26:03
  mindset and control on your, you know, how you approach the day.
• 26:06
  And if you're doing that at 8 p.m. at night, well, the day's passed, you know.
• 26:11
  So thinking about that, how are you, are you,
• 26:15
  on defense all day long. And that's part of the problem. And so how can you
• 26:20
  lock in and take control of the day ahead by getting some quiet time in?
• 26:29
  So a true lifestyle change, y'all, I mean, it's going to give you so much more
• 26:34
  than just weight loss, right?
• 26:35
  And so these three points that I gave you today, yeah, sure,
• 26:39
  it'll help you, you know, reach your weight loss and your health goals,
• 26:42
  but it's more than that, right?
• 26:45
  You'll find yourself more proud in your days. You'll find yourself more calm,
• 26:50
  letting go of the hold that things like food and body image have had on you all your life, right?
• 26:57
  Like by doing this true deep work, yes, it'll help you get closer to your goals,
• 27:02
  but it'll also just help so much more than that.
• 27:04
  And I can't explain it. I just need you to do it so you can find out, right?
• 27:09
  But to make that change, you do have to have the discipline.
• 27:14
  And I'm not promising it'll always be easy, but if that discipline is truly
• 27:19
  aligned, you shouldn't feel like you're constantly spinning and spiraling, okay?
• 27:24
  It may, obviously, it may require focus or attention or depriving yourself of something else, right?
• 27:30
  Like you're depriving yourself of that morning podcast to get the quiet time in.
• 27:34
  You're depriving yourself of the Diet Coke to get your water in or whatever, right?
• 27:40
  There may be some deprivation going on. Don't mishear me.
• 27:43
  But it should come from a better place, a place of calm and control,
• 27:48
  a place of more regulation, right? A place of less hustle, right?
• 27:54
  If you are aligned and you are taking things at the pace that they need to be
• 27:57
  taken and still focusing in on that discipline.
• 28:01
  Now, to help with this, I've created Consistency Over Chaos Week,
