In this episode of Reminding Yourself, I share the mindset shift that made discipline sustainable. This is not a motivational speech. It’s a system.
I explain how I turned the act of getting to the gym into part of my workout. I break down the way I removed motivation from the equation, why I stopped using mirrors or scales, and how I travel across cities without missing a day. This is about more than fitness. It is about identity.
In this episode you will hear:
How to train your body to show up even when your mind resists
Why “just get to the car” is my anti-quitting protocol
The trick to making a packed gym bag your accountability partner
How I replaced self-image with self-direction
Why I track motion, not metrics
How I rebuilt discipline while rebuilding myself
This was recorded at 6:30am, right after the gym, while heading to get coffee. No script. No filters. Just the real thought process behind how I stay consistent.
If you’ve ever struggled with momentum, identity, or emotional resistance to routine, this episode will give you something deeper to work with.
