In this episode of the Finding Direction podcast, I discuss the importance of taking action towards achieving our goals, even when we don't feel like it. I share a personal story about my commitment to taking an ice bath before every workout and emphasize the need to commit to our goals for five days, regardless of our feelings. I challenge listeners to get committed to their goals, not their feelings, and promise that doing so will lead to faster progress and increased energy and momentum. I encourage listeners to try an ice bath or turning the shower to cold to train their brains to take action even when they don't feel like it.
