Walks on the Beach Together

Uncategorized Nov 24, 2023

For the last few weeks, Paul and I have been starting the day with a walk together and ending the day with a walk together. 

 

I hope we do this for years to come, but even if we don't, I will always be able to look back on that crazy year we lived at the beach and went for walks...

Only show up on the days you want to...

If you only show up on the days you want to...

the truth is you (and I) would probably rarely show up. 

We would rarely take action.

 

You're not always going to want to take action.

You're not always going to want to go for a walk or head to the gym or eat some vegetables with your...

Track your daily actions

consistency habits Nov 18, 2023

If you aren't tracking already, you need to start!

Why:

1. It's going to take weeks, months, and years of repetition for your daily actions to pay off. It's helpful to see how long you've been going.

2. Seeing that you're taking action helps you take more action. You remind yourself you've...

Who do you want to be?

I chat a lot with my clients about who they are being...

Who they see themselves as...

 

When you see yourself as a failure, a quitter, someone who is fundamentally flawed, you continue to take actions that uphold those beliefs about yourself.

 

When you want to see yourself as a...

I don't want to today...

I started a new habit of heading to the gym every night, and tonight I don't really want to!

 

But I also know I will feel really annoyed with myself if I don't go. 

I will feel resentful- I spend all day working and no time working on myself or my own goals.

I know going will help me...

Morning Movement

A few weeks ago, Paul and I started doing a 30-45 minute walk in the morning.

I love it because:

1. I get to move my body first thing which is just so crucial for my mental health.

2. I get to start the day by spending time with Paul. Sometimes we talk. Sometimes it is silent. Sometimes we hold...

Oftentimes, I overcomplicate things and it's the overcomplication that makes it so hard to take action.

 

But my new habit is easy. At...
