  Good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:30
  So since this is the beginning of the year and it is
• 0:34
  technically day to assuming that you were going to do goal
• 0:39
  setting where you've already done it.
• 0:40
  I figured this week we should power through some things that
• 0:43
  are going to help make this all much more enjoyable and
• 0:48
  fruitful. So first things first, how do
• 0:52
  you get into the pattern of doing the things you want to do
• 0:56
  as opposed to the things that you are used to doing and Those
• 1:00
  might not be things that you really want to do any more you
• 1:03
  turn and change things. Maybe your new thing is health
• 1:05
  and you're going to change the way you're eating.
• 1:07
  That's always a big one for people.
• 1:09
  They want to get healthy. They want to get stronger.
• 1:11
  They want to work out, whatever it might be, they want to lose
• 1:13
  weight. They want to just feel more
• 1:15
  muscular. I have some of those on my list
• 1:18
  as well, because I feel as though while I'm a great weight,
• 1:22
  I'm not necessarily muscular and that is a big thing about aging
• 1:27
  and being able to take care of yourself is taking maintaining
• 1:29
  muscles. So It's an important thing to
• 1:31
  remember, anytime you're past the age of 25, you have to start
• 1:36
  thinking of these things. So it's important to put it on
• 1:39
  your list. So let's just take that one.
• 1:42
  So I'm going to use myself as an example because it's the easiest
• 1:45
  way for me to explain it to you. I am not in the habit of lifting
• 1:49
  weights. I'm not in the habit of doing
• 1:52
  even know my own body weight. So push-ups sit-ups.
• 1:55
  All of that. Not in the habit of that that
• 1:57
  has not become one of my my Mainstays.
• 2:01
  So what happens when that's not one of your things and you're
• 2:05
  trying really hard to get yourself to that position where
• 2:08
  you want that to be part of your thing.
• 2:10
  So first and foremost, the most important thing that you can do
• 2:14
  and should do is look at not piling on so much of it that
• 2:19
  you're going to set yourself up for misery and failure before
• 2:22
  you even start. So what do I mean by that?
• 2:24
  So you look at the goal and you say, Okay I want to start, you
• 2:28
  know working out I want to start lifting And I'm not going to go
• 2:31
  to the gym and start making myself lift, 50 pounds every
• 2:36
  single day, 6 days a week that just won't work.
• 2:40
  I will absolutely burn out, I will be miserable, I won't even
• 2:43
  be able to sit down to pee without my but killing me, there
• 2:46
  is no way that is healthy. So the first 30 days of the
• 2:52
  month are incredibly important, or the first 30 days of the
• 2:55
  goals are incredibly important because you're scrambling the
• 2:58
  old patterns at this point, you are not as Publishing new
• 3:01
  patterns and establishing new patterns takes 90 days, research
• 3:05
  shows over and over and over again.
• 3:07
  When people say it's 30 days, it is completely irrelevant.
• 3:10
  You can scramble a pattern in 30 days, you can start to disturb
• 3:13
  it, but you will not get rid of it, you will not see this, just
• 3:17
  shift, you have to do the work in order to layer it.
• 3:22
  So the first 30 days are all about just working towards
• 3:25
  interrupting the old patterns, the second 30 days are working
• 3:28
  towards establishing and kind of even liking what you're working
• 3:32
  on and then the third 30 days are building the muscle and
• 3:35
  saying, wow, this is enjoyable. I'm seeing results from it
• 3:37
  because usually start to see results by those third 30 days.
• 3:41
  So, taking that into consideration, my plan is that I
• 3:46
  will start doing these. Wait weights are quoting this
• 3:51
  with myself. Meaning, I'm going to be doing
• 3:52
  push-ups, sit-ups, squats. All of that with myself first.
• 3:57
  I'm not rushing off to the gym to do this because If I do, I'll
• 4:01
  be miserable and I'm going to do this three days out of seven, so
• 4:06
  that I can have a workout day. A break day, a workout Daybreak
• 4:09
  day at work out day, a break day.
• 4:11
  That way, my body doesn't become a constant messenger of pain,
• 4:16
  which is what happens. So, it doesn't matter, whatever
• 4:20
  you're trying to take on whatever you're trying to
• 4:21
  establish. This is a great pattern to look
• 4:25
  at. So pick one of your goals,
• 4:27
  start, it doesn't matter if it's reading.
• 4:29
  If you say, I'm going to read Every single day.
• 4:31
  No, you're not. Be honest with yourself, you
• 4:34
  might want to but it won't happen for the most part.
• 4:38
  It will be something that is. Okay, what's my number I'm
• 4:41
  starting with? Then the second 30 days can come
• 4:44
  up and you can say, okay, now I'm going to add an extra day.
• 4:47
  I'm going to, you know, I'll go from three to four or three to
• 4:50
  five depending upon what it is, but it is a layered effect that
• 4:54
  you're working towards. So keep that in mind, too.
• 4:57
  You've got to make sure that you're tracking your Salts, if
• 5:02
  you are not tracking your efforts and your results, you're
• 5:06
  going to forget, you're going to forget how much effort you've
• 5:09
  put in. And by the end of the week,
• 5:10
  you're going to be like, I'm such a loser, because this is
• 5:13
  what we do to ourselves. I didn't make it progress.
• 5:15
  I didn't do this. I didn't do that.
• 5:17
  And you will just beat the crap out of yourself for.
• 5:19
  Absolutely no reason at all. And it's ridiculous.
• 5:21
  So, stop before you even start that because it's just totally
• 5:26
  illogical to take it on that way, especially since we're at
• 5:29
  the beginning of the year, and The third thing and the most
• 5:31
  important thing is you've got to make sure you're doing this
• 5:34
  because it's something you and you really, really, really
• 5:37
  really want and you feel it and you're excited about it but
• 5:42
  you're not just doing it to take a box.
• 5:44
  You're doing it because you have the motivation, something
• 5:48
  calling you my motivation behind this particular goal that I'm
• 5:52
  using. As my example is the fact that I
• 5:54
  watched my mother deteriorate big time, she just deteriorated
• 5:59
  terribly in her later. Years.
• 6:01
  And I am circumventing that before I get there, I'm going to
• 6:05
  make sure that that does not happen.
• 6:07
  I have no intention of letting that creep up because if you
• 6:13
  kill the monsters while they're small, they're easier to manage
• 6:17
  when you have to start doing something because they tell you
• 6:19
  to start doing something because you've got other issues then,
• 6:22
  that's the problem. So taking it on in the
• 6:25
  beginning. While it's small makes it easier
• 6:28
  and you, I am Absolutely joyful about having the ability to do
• 6:33
  that and not have to force it, because something happened.
• 6:37
  So, look for those indicators and yourself, find that fact
• 6:41
  that you this isn't just something that someone's forcing
• 6:44
  you to do and you really don't want it.
• 6:46
  No lying to yourself. Remember that.
• 6:47
  This is about, I will be joyful. When I can say at the end of the
• 6:51
  year, I did X number of push-ups, sit-ups squats, all
• 6:55
  those things. How many workouts did I do?
• 6:58
  So get your butts in gear? Dear whatever it is that you're
• 7:01
  doing. Take it on in this way and set
• 7:04
  yourself up on a scale to start slower and scale up that way.
• 7:08
  You can see Success track it and feel great.
• 7:11
  All right, my friends. We will see you tomorrow from
• 7:14
  the very happy, Chicken Coop. And I hope you have a very, very
• 7:17
  blessed day. Bye.
