306: If doing more & trying harder isn’t working - do this instead
Description
If you’ve been throwing more time, effort, and willpower at your goals and it’s still not clicking… this episode is for you.I’m sharing the story of how changing my environment - not my strategy - made growth feel easier, more natural, and more sustainable. We’ll talk about the subtle ways your surroundings can hold you back (without you realising), and how to create an environment that actually supports your success.
You’ll learn:
* Why your willpower isn’t the problem …your environment might be
* How being surrounded by people doing hard things as normal changes everything
* What to do when you feel out of your depth in new spaces
* How accountability and proximity make growth inevitable
* Why this applies as much to business as it does to fitness
