The Actual Perfect Time to Start Exercising
Everyone's always waiting for the best time to start their journey through exercise (or new things, for that matter), but it's easy to say, "I'll wait until Monday." Then Sunday night rolls around aaaaand...well, you know the drill. Let's dive in to the actual perfect time to start.
Setting the Table with an Analogy - 1:05 --> Let's get the conversation started with a little small talk between coaches and a coaching analogy that applies to the actual perfect time to start something new!
The Common Denominator Among People - 6:00 --> When you're going through something tough or wanting to try something new, it can often feel like you're on an island, making the next action steps very difficult to just START your goals.
Taking Action to Make Things Easier - 7:54 --> The actual perfect time to start your journey starts when you're "really in the thick of it", but by breaking through this moment you can make a lot of the next steps in your journey that much easier.
Everyone's Waiting for that Perfect Moment - 9:58 --> Waiting for that perfect moment will keep you waiting. You'll come up with reasons. You'll procrastinate. You'll justify NOT starting. Let's talk about the actual perfect time to start.
Calling People Out on Their BS as a Coach - 15:02 --> As compassionate, curious, and understanding coaches, Emily and Jordan explore different language and coaching tactics they use to help people.
The Non-Negotiables of Your Life - 13:05 --> You have to build non-negotiables in your routine to help you stay on track. We dive into some ideas for exercising, but also open the door to helping you identify your own non-negotiables to improve your adaptability which will help you accomplish more goals.
The Discipline to Stay True to Your Non-Negotiables - 17:27 --> Not following through with something can be summed up as lack of discipline. Jordan and Emily dive into how to create flexibility in your lifestyle to help you stay on track and decrease procrastination or overwhelm.
Prioritizing Your Goals and The Hardest Steps of Your Journey - 23:03 --> If your priorities are different or changing, your routine and non-negotiables will change. If you're not mindful of your priorities, you'll slip into excuses or not taking action, thus the "I'll-start-on-Monday-mentality" takes over.
The Actual Perfect Time to Start is Now - 29:04 --> Closing words on why RIGHT NOW is the perfect time to start and why "living on the fence" is a counter-productive area to getting started.
