EP301 | Killing Comfort and What It Means To Me
Alright team, let's talk about getting comfortable. Sounds nice, right? Wrong. Comfort is where progress goes to die. If you feel like you've hit a plateau, maybe you're just a little too settled in.
In this episode, I break down this idea of "Killing Comfort," something my business partner Jared Moon covers in his killer new book. We dig into why embracing the suck, focusing on the process, and doing the hard things day in and day out is the real key to leveling up, both as a clinician and as a business owner. I share how this mindset shaped my own path and how you can use it to push past your limits.
🔑 Key Takeaways:- ✔️ Comfort Kills Growth: Getting complacent is the fastest way to stall out. You gotta actively seek out challenges.
- ✔️ Embrace the Grind: Success isn't always flashy. Like wolves missing hunts most of the time, you gotta persist through failures and setbacks. Focus on not quitting.
- ✔️ Process Over Outcome (Initially): Obsess about getting better, about skill acquisition. The results will follow if you stick with the process long enough.
- ✔️ Do Hard Shit: Wake up early? Train when tired? Skip the extra junk food? Choose the thing that builds discipline. That's killing comfort daily.
- ✔️ Consistency Beats Talent: I wasn't the smartest PT in my class, but I was willing to put in the work consistently over time. That dedication pays off.
"Stop looking for shortcuts. The 'secret sauce' is showing up, doing the work even when it sucks, and focusing relentlessly on getting better day by day. That's how you build something real."
