Transcripts
be consistent consistency is key all you
have to do is be consistent consistently
show up to your goals so you want me to
be consistent but how we all know that
in order to see results or to achieve a
goal we have to show up on a regular
basis over a long period of time to
achieve it to get to that result to
complete it if you are anything like me
where you think about your results or
you make pretty notion dashboards or you
buy a new planner excited to just plan
everything out and yet you don't take
action this video is for you your
talking about how to stay consistent
with new habits and routines so that you
don't fall back into your old habits
first thing that you're going to do to
become more consistent is to shorten the
time between thinking about this new
habit or routine and doing it for
example it's a Friday evening you crappy
day at work something happen you're
upset and you go down a spiral of like
what am I going to do with my life
instantly you're like you know what I
need a new notebook a new planner I make
a new notion dashboard planning out your
whole life and making that perfect plan
on Monday I'm going to do this this this
this and this you have it all colorcoded
or you have charts you have to-do lists
and you are so excited it is just going
to be the best thing ever and then
Monday morning rolls around and you're
like me and you don't take action you
got all of that out onto a piece of
paper to notion whatever you plan your
life but by Monday morning you were like
you know what it's just easier to stay
where I am at now because it's
comfortable so instead of Friday evening
planning out absolutely everything you
were going to do on Monday why not
Friday evening you do the action say you
wanted to start working out why couldn't
you go for a walk on Friday evening when
that thought sparked into your brain it
is shortening the time span and
obviously you can't like if the thought
comes in your head while you're driving
you're not going to pull over and like
go for a walk this this is more so for
the planners the procrastinators the
people who think that like you need to
have the perfect Plan before you can do
anything in order to stay consistent
with your habits you have to do them the
more you do them the easier it gets at
doing them long term the biggest problem
with consistency is your brain you're
thinking about all of the ways you want
to show up you can show up you should
show up and you're not actually doing
those things so the 40 minutes you spent
writing out the plan could have been 40
minutes of you doing the plan taking
those steps because your brain is going
to automatically look for the things
that make you comfortable and your
comfort zone might not be the best thing
for you it's because you know it it's
regular it's monotonous it's the same
the second thing you're going to work on
in order to be more consistent with your
routines and habits is your mindset and
limiting beliefs so you will not be able
to stay consistent if you are unwilling
to look at your limiting beliefs around
the new habit so if you're new habit is
waking up at 5:00 a.m. and doing a
workout you have to ask yourself okay
why do I want to wake up at 5:00 a.m.
and then also maybe you have a limiting
belief about waking up early uncover
this limiting belief you have to be
aware of it so you're aware that waking
up early really freaking annoys you and
you just don't know why now you have to
dive into the why what about waking up
early back then made you hate it so much
and then also why do you want to wake up
early now is it to make you feel more
productive in the morning is it to help
you try to implement new habits so that
you can reach your goals is it because
you don't want to feel rushed anymore
you just want to have time to relax and
chill throughout a morning routine
before you have to head to work or
school really dive into to what it would
look like accomplishing this new habit
and then whatever blocks come up
whatever reactions in your body come up
like if your first instinct is to be
like I can't do that why why was that
the first instinct dive into that and
that's going to be a limiting belief you
can also go on to Pinterest and just
type in limiting belief questions
uncovering limiting beliefs and there
will be tons of questions that you can
work through in order to help you
uncover limiting beliefs in different
areas of your life so that you can start
implementing the habits that want over a
long period of time number three in
being consistent is understanding self
discipline for you self-discipline is
simply you showing up accomplishing the
promises that you made yourself for
instance I am currently doing a 75 soft
challenge I am 20 days in and I made
this the decision to work out every
single day for 45 minutes and I've
accomplished that there have been
moments when it was 8:00 p.m. and I
hadn't done my 45-minute workout and I
was like can we just put my pajamas on
on and go to bed like that's what I
really really really want to do but my
brain was like we committed to this
we're not breaking our streak now just
do the workout and because step one I
shortened the time frame of thinking
about doing it and actually doing the
action where it was like I don't want to
work out but we're going to and I went
straight to my laptop I turned on the
first 45 minute workout that was on
there it was like a hit dance whatever
and I did it and after I finished that I
was like see I can show up for myself I
can be disciplined the more times that
you do an act that you truly want to
even if your brain even if your comfort
zone is trying to yank you back down the
more that you pull yourself away from
that comfort zone or push outside of it
yes it will be difficult but the more
that you accomplish it and you achieve
it you are going to feel like so proud
and excited that the next time that that
voice comes up and it's like no I'm not
going to do it or I don't want to do it
it'll be even easier to be like well I'm
just going to go do it I I said I was
going to do it I'm to do it let's just
go do it right now and another part of
self-discipline is to yes you want to
plan what you're going to do but if you
were somebody like me who cannot stick
to a plan and I have to just simply be
like hey tomorrow am I'm working out in
the morning that's all I need to figure
out or or if it helps you out you can
pick the workout video or what workout
you're going to do like write the
workout down and tell yourself you'll do
it tomorrow and the moment you think
about it the next day you do it
obviously you're going to have things
that come up maybe you work at 9 to5
maybe you have school so you're going to
have different areas you're going to be
like okay I know that I can work out in
the morning so prioritize it in the
morning but you don't have to plan out
that every single Monday at 5:00 a.m.
I'm going to be working out for the next
6 months it doesn't have to be that
strict you can e and flow and still be
disciplined because self-discipline is
just showing up for yourself is taking
action on the commitments that you chose
so the fourth way that you can stay
consistent with new habits and routines
is through habit stacking so this is the
term that I learned from James clear's
Atomic habits which when I read it it
was quite eye opening and I do know that
there are some good things and bad
things about the book but habit stacking
truly kind of opens your eyes to how
easy integrating a new habit could be
it's shifting your perspective habit
stacking is simply taking your new habit
and attaching it to something you
already do in your routine so for
instance for me I make a coffee every
single morning new habit that I might
want is to read for 10 minutes so if I
read for 10 minutes then make my coffee
I will always read for 10 minutes
because it's connected all I got to do
is bring my book with me into the
kitchen make my coffee I can even read
while the coffee is being made which I
mean it's only a handful of minutes for
the coffee to like actually come through
the thing but I could start reading
while that's happening my coffee sit
down and finish reading but it's
integrating those small daily habits
those new habits and routines into other
things you're already doing number six
is accountability it could be a friend a
partner a parent or an online community
even where you probably don't know
anybody in there to help you stay
accountable because if there's a place
where you can go and you can say hey
guys for the month my goals are this
this and this and then every single week
you have people checking in and being
like hey how'd it go what's what's been
working what hasn't been working and
allowing you to just have the space to
connect with people be like reminded and
talk about your goals because your goals
should be something that you want to
like shout from the rooftops right like
I want to accomplish this I'm so excited
to accomplish this like there's no need
to be weird about the goals that you
want to accomplish I mean I guess
depending on friends and family could be
a bit different because they might if
they've known you your whole life or
you've they have a version of you that
you're wanting to like shift and change
from it could make them uncomfortable in
some ways because if you're growing and
moving on and accomplishing all of these
incredible things and they aren't it can
cause like some turmoil depending on who
it is but for the most part your friends
and family should be so excited for your
growth for your goals be happy to
connect and motivate and help hold you
accountable if you are interested in an
online community where you can co-work
daily check-ins set goals create content
and basically a bunch of other things in
order to make friends and hold each
other accountable I do have a new
membership coming that you can check out
below below with all of the details and
if you want to be the first one to know
about the launch it's coming very soon
you can sign out for the wait list you
can see seventh step is to be flexible
so understanding that setting your goals
planning them out and then taking action
things are going to come up life is
going to happen and so maybe you planned
to work out first thing in the morning
but it didn't actually pan out things
got busy you slept in something happened
you just couldn't do it so instead of
writing your whole day off and being
like Oh my gosh I couldn't do it like
sucks I fell off my habits be flexible
instead of doing like a 45 minute
workout at the gym you can do a
10-minute walk outside and that could
still count towards your workout it
might not be as active it might not be
as strength driven but you still did
something for your health allowing
yourself to be flexible isn't just like
giving up on your goals you are making
the choice to give yourself the space to
live life number eight the last step in
staying consistent is getting back up
quicker cuz guess what you're probably
going to fall off you might start this
routine and be like oh my gosh this is
the best ever but something happens and
you miss something or something changes
or you fall back into an old habit but
you tried and the next time that you get
back up you now have more experience
more knowledge to continue doing it
again and so get back up quicker without
the guilt or the shame or like the
embarrassment like maybe you told
somebody that you were going to be
working out XY Z maybe you told somebody
you were going to be running a marathon
and you didn't actually commit to the
like 16 we running plan you put together
the marathon's coming somebody's like
hey you doing this marathon and you're
like oh my God I'm not cuz I didn't
actually stick to the goal that I had go
to the next marathon sign up for the
next marathon start running right now
because said this so many times in this
video life happens giving yourself the
space to try your hardest take action
every single day but knowing that you
know what there are going to be setbacks
there are going to be obstacles and that
doesn't mean you're a failure that
simply means means that life happened
there was a setback you didn't do
something for XY Z you're going to
continue getting back up so for for me
one of the things is writing I used to
write like every single day for months
and then I would stop for like 6 months
and then I would start writing again
then I would stop for months at a time
and then every single time that I got
back into the habit of writing I would
tell myself this is amazing I love this
it's so exciting but then why do I fall
off and then take so long to get back up
I now now can usually get myself back
into writing after a week or so but I
know that I probably will never write
every single day for the rest of my life
I can definitely show up open my
manuscript and I can do that fairly
consistently over an extended period of
time but I don't ignore my work in
progresses anymore for months and months
on end because I've learned to shorten
that downtime if you are setting new
habits and routines remember that takes
time but you have to take the actions
you have to implement these daily habits
and take action in order to see
long-term results long-term growth that
is everything that I have for you in
