• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Hello, beautiful beans, and welcome to This is episode eight
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: of the ten Day twenty twenty five Life Reset. So
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: this short and sweet episode is going to be around
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: nailing your consistency. And if you are somebody that has
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: purchased my brain.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Journal, little what do you call it? Little shameless.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Would to kind of think of the word, but I'm
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: just like a shameless plug for my brain Journal. Basically,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: it's like a journal that is really geared towards not
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: only getting you in the zone, but helping with productivity
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: and focus and all of the above the way that
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: I just love how I've set it out. But anyway,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: in this Brain Journal, I speak about this concept which
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: I'm going to talk to you about now.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: If you have the brain Journal, great, you can.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Do it without the Brain Journal. So if you don't
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: want to buy it, don't, you can still do it.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: This is the idea of no two days off in
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a row. That is one if for me, I've found
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: to be one of the best ways to stay consistent. Okay,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: when you are trying to stay consistent, I think a
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: lot of us think consistency means every single day. Sure,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: but for a lot of us, one of the main
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: problems is that we think I've got to be perfect
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: and consistent, and that's what consistency is. So I've got
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: to eat a certain way or not do a certain thing,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: or I've got to get up at a certain time, and.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: It's got to be consistent.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: If I fall off the bandwagon, I have to start again,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: all right. So we'll start, will go hard, and then
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: we'll start again. Or another mistake that we'll make is
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: we think, oh, I've got to do this every single day.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: So I've got this holiday coming up, and I've got
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: this weekend away, and I've also i've.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Got this really early morning meeting.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: So because I can't do it every single day, I'm
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: not going to start yet. Once it's calm down, then
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I'm going to start. But what we failed to realize
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: we say, oh, December is a really busy time, and
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: then January here, so I'm my god, start of the year,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: it's really hectic, its whatever, and then it's around eas
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, but it's just such a busy time.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: And that every time is a busy time.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Whether people around you make it busy or whether you
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: yourself has made it busy, there's always going to be
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: a busy time. So to think I've got to wait
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: until the stars aligned for me to.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Be able to do something every single day without fail,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: then I'm going to do it.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: You're going to be waiting your whole life since since
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: the point of consistency, in my opinion, is so you
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: don't have to be consistent every day, if that makes sense,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: you do it enough times that you're noticing enough of
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: the change that it allows for the off days. Consistency
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: and discipline allows.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: For the off days.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: It allows for the that's the time that I couldn't
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: do it because I had a meeting, I've got a
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: weekend away, it's the holiday season. It's this, It's that
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Consistency is doing something. The way I want you to
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: look at it is I want you looking at consistency
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: as doing something as more often than not. And my
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: favorite thing to implement is the idea of no two
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: days off in a row. So while i was referencing
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: the brain jowl, and I've got this little thing of
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: these boxes that you color in as you do it.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: So you write like Monday to Friday, you say, like meditating,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: moving body, like working out, sauna, whatever it is, like
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: practicing a language, It can be any task, and you
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: have to color in the box for the one you do,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: but then you can see which boxes haven't been colored in.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: You never want to see two boxes not colored in
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: back to back, like next to each other.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: But you're gonna have one on one off, one on
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: one off, one.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Of If your hit rate is fifty percent of doing
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: something consistently for six months and you're doing it fifty
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: percent of the time, you're doing five hundred.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Percent better than what you're doing right now.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: This is what we don't give ourselves, what we don't realize,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: or what we don't give ourselves credit for. We think, no, no, no,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: no no, it's got to be perfect, otherworld, why bother.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: It's it's all or nothing, all or nothing, all or
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: the and then it ends up being nothing. We have
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: this all or nothing approach, but then we settle for
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: nothing again and again and again.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: It's ridiculous.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: So instead of doing that, just sinking no, two days
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: off in a row, and I'm going to be so
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: good to you. You don't even have to include weekends
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: in that if you don't want to. If you're something
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: that no, no, no, no no. My weekends are sacred and
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: they're fucking all over the whatever. You can do two
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: days in off in a row Monday to Friday, right,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: so you're doing Monday, Wednesday, Friday. We're doing whatever. Okay,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: but what the aim of this is that you are
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: doing at least fifty percent of the time, at least
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: fifty percent of the time. So you do Monday, Tuesday,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: couldn't do Wednesday, Thursday, couldn't do Friday. The next week is,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: couldn't do Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, third, you know, whatever it is.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: But you're having no two days off in a row.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: If you want to include the weekends in there, that's ideal.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: You don't even have to, Okay. What that means is
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: that you approach consistency with a completely brand like a
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: brand new lens, and you think, I just have to
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: have my hit rate at fifty percent or more.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: And if my hit rate is at fifty percent or more,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I'm doing it enough times that it becomes part of
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: my lifestyle. Because you don't want to do something once
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: and then nothing for two weeks and then once because
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: it's just too sporadic and you don't get used to
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like it's part of you doesn't.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Feel like it's part of your lifestyle. You're not really
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: getting anywhere.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: You forget what you've done, or your body's not conditioned enough,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: and you just go back to square one every time.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Okay, but you're doing it enough times that it becomes.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Part of your routine and part of your new life,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: your new identity who I am now in this moving
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: into the new year. You're doing it enough times to
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: be getting better, incrementally better at that thing, or better
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: at like dropping into the zone at that thing, or
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: feeling nicer.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: You're seeing how it's changing your life.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: You're doing it enough times that it's creating a positive
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: impact on your life, and you're also noticing that you're
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: able to create balance that I don't have to do
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: it every single day.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: And because I'm noticing this.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Change, it's going to make me want to do it
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: whenever I can do it. But I don't have to
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: do it every single day where I wake up and
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I just I'm so tired and I need
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: that extra sleep. I didn't have a good sleep, and
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: I'm going to perform better today if I get that
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: extra sleep.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Most days I don't do that, but there are days
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: where I listen.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: To my body and I think, today is not the
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: fucking day and I am not the one, So I'm
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: going to not wake up super early, or it's just
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: not a day for me to go and do that
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: task on that training. You're gonna have your off days,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: or you're going to have your days where it's just
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: too hectic and you can't get something done. But in general,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: more often than not, you've created a new system of
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: doing certain things that you actually like doing that thing
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: because you know how it impacts your mood, you know
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: how it impacts your life. You start to see a
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: kind of you see your correlation. The days that I
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: did do that, I felt better in the evening. The
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: days that I did do that more often than not
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: in that week, I felt better overall at the end
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: of the week. And that's something that I have in
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: my brain journal is that alongside you tracking when you
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: do these set habits, you then track your mood overall.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: So at the end of because each journal last five weeks,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: at the end of the five week period, you're able
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: to actually track it.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: It's wild and then you start.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: To see a pattern of behavior and how it correlates
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: with your mood. At the end of the five weeks,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: you line them all up next to each other and
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: you're like, Wow, the times that I meditated most days
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: in the week were the happiest weeks I had, or
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the times that I spent because you set what the
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: tasks are so you could be like thirty minutes of
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: tidy my home. The days that I did that more often,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: I was happier. All the days that I hit most
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: of my targets, I felt better or calmer or whatever.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: So it's like a way of tracking mood up against
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: the actual behaviors that you do. And if you do more,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: like if you stick to no two days off in
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: a row, I can guarantee you with a fifty percent
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: hit rate or better, your life will change. Don't tell
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: yourself that consistency you've got to wait till everything is perfect,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: because you'll be waiting for the rest of your life
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: and then you'll never be consistent. You are consistently doing
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: something if you do it multiple times a week, doesn't have.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: To be every day.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: You are consistently doing something if you do something at
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: least twice a week every single week.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, So calm the fuck down.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: When it comes to how strict you are with consistency,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: and just tell yourself, I'm going to start the no
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: two days off in a row. You can aim to
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: do it daily, but be like, that's the threshold. Not
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: dipping below this threshold, unless, of course I'm actually ill
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: or away, which is fine, but in general, I'm not
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: dipping below this threshold. And watch how everything turns around
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: because you look at consistency differently. You start thinking, I
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: am consistent. I'm actually consistent because I'm showing up on
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: the days that I said I was gonna show up.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: And a fifty percent hit rate is actually infinitely more
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: than I've ever done. Okay, if you aim for one
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: hundred percent, you're not gonna hit it likely, and then
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: you're gonna think that you're flawed.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: You got to like prepare yourself more. You gotta wait
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: for another time. You gotta this. You got to that
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: you're gonna be pissed off at yourself.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: If you aim for fifty sixty seventy percent hit rate,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: you're gonna be hitting it. And then when you have
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: the days off, you're like, oh, I don't even need
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: this day off, but I can take it if I want,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: because I'm already doing the hit rate that I said I.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Was gonna do.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Okay, everything changes. How are you priming yourself to approach
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: what consistency looks like?
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Give that a go.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Get the fucking brain Journal if you want so you
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: can track everything. It is such a game changer. I
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: couldn't recommend it higher because for me, that's what's turned
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: around a lot of things, things that I've wanted to
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: start implament in my life have been a lot easier
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: to implement by using the system.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: So go ahead, use it, see how it works on you.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Love you guys so much. That is all for today.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: As always remember, become to yourself, become to your brain.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Don't take shit from anyone, and especially don't take shit
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: from yourself.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Dunker and see you tomorrow.
