Episode • Sep 12, 2019 • 1h 45m

Ready to elevate where you are in life in probably the most SIMPLE format you've ever heard? Today's conversation with Austin Current of Physique Development is truly a "How to do Life for Dummies" guide. Austin is one of the most intelligent people I know when it comes to training and nutrition, but today he offered up some golden (arguably platinum) nuggets on life. Here's the conversational gamut we ran today:

-Following the "plan" that was laid out for him and realizing that he didn't actually want to pursue it

-Growing up being told that he wasn't intelligent

-Having his sports career ended by a series of traumatic brain injuries and how that led him to academia

-Learning the "game" of school and the concept of cause and effect

-Learning to become intentional with how he spends his time

-Learning to ask questions to get where you want to go

-Seeking things out that you suck at

-Overcoming anxiety with action

-"Showing your work" in the math equation of life

-Managing expectations healthily and effectively

-Acknowledging that no one owes you anything

-Removing distraction
