Do you struggle with follow through? Are you, like me, someone who has a history of starting and stopping when it comes to goals? In this episode, we’re talking about all the reasons this happens. Not only the common excuses, but the real reasons that are underneath the surface. The ones that need addressing. 


I’m going to share with you:

  • Why motivation is not the key
  • How to think about discipline in terms of habits
  • Why the common excuses we all give don’t hold up
  • The real reasons we give up on our goals
  • How to shift our focus from effort to reward
  • What belief has to do with it
  • What we're actually chasing when we set a goal
  • Why a focus on identity is absolutely necessary
  • What steps you can take today to get back on track and moving forward with your goal


Books mentioned in today's episode:

"Hello Fears" by Michelle Poler
"Atomic Habits" by James Clear
