  Speaker 1: Hey, what's up family?
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: It's Dr Sweet here and welcome back.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: You're listening to the Sweet Spot and this is Take Action Tuesday.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Now listen up.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Today's message is about making a move by taking a small action.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: So we're combining what we talked about yesterday, which was making your move and not waiting, but taking a small action and not letting the fact that you don't see a result or an outcome deter you from continuing to take small actions.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Sometimes in life we are seduced by the fact that everything moves fast in our world.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: We have fast food, we get fast results, we have a fast Wi-Fi.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Let's be real.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: If that Wi-Fi lags for even two seconds, we're ready to slam our phones onto the desk right.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: But life doesn't always work like that.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Real progress.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: If you take a step back and study the universe how grass and trees grow, like how you plant a seed and you've got to water it and give it sunlight and take care of it every day, how amazing that that process is, what must take place over time before anything pops up out of the soil.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: So taking time and understanding that small actions, repetitive actions, being consistent with whatever you're doing, is really the pathway to getting the big outcomes you want down the line, and that's the key down the line.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Imagine going to the gym, right, doing one bicep curl, and then speeding in your car back to a mirror so that you could look at your arms to see the progress you made that day.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Now you've only been to the gym once, you've only done one bicep curl, and you're looking for results.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: It's not that nothing is happening, it's just that, at the cellular level, you're just not going to see that.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: So, spoiler alert, it doesn't work that way.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: We've got to think about the compound effect of all the tiny moves that you're making, all the tiny reps that you're doing over time.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: That is what's going to build your strength, that is what's going to give you the muscle and that is what's going to give you the look and the outcome you are desiring.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: And the same goes for business, for a career, for a relationship.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Small, consistent actions create massive results down the line.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: So don't give up.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Take small actions.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Don't despise small beginnings.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: The scriptures say Success is the product of daily habits, not once-in-a-lifetime transformations.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: That's what James Clare, the author of Atomic Habits, says, right.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: He says that you know, look, if you want to win, you've got to commit to the boring basics.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: You've got to trust a process and even if you don't see results right away, you just keep going.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Don't give up, all right.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: So that's my message for you on Take Action Tuesday.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Here's my ask Pick one small habit that you want to start or get back on track with.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: It could be five minutes of reading, it could be a quick morning stretch, it could be making a call to somebody that you have been avoiding.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: It could be choosing to eat vegetables instead of I don't know fast food.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Whatever it is.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Just do it today.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: One small thing.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Don't focus on the results, but trust the process and focus on building the habit by taking small actions, on building the habit by taking small actions.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: And with these small steps, these small steps that you take today, you are going to create big wins down the road.
• 4:11
