Don’t Be Who You Are Not

Scott Smith - Motivation and Coaching
About this episode

 

Are you striving for something different but don’t know where to begin?

I have a client who is 100 pounds overweight and decided to get healthy. She had no idea how.

My advice was simple.

If your mind is telling you something you are doing is NOT who you are - it’s time to make an easy change:

If you know lousy food is NOT who you - give it up.

If your lack of exercise is NOT who are you - give it up.

If lack of focus is NOT who you are - give it up.

Give up anything that is NOT who you feel you are on the inside. You’ll like what remains.
