The Battle

You're at your desk.

Sitting on a chair and yawning.

You look at the time.

Work is done.

You look at your calendar and you’re thinking… 

“Tomorrow I have to work and run some errands.”  

“Gotta make a couple calls.” 

“Shit! I have to text my friends before I leave.”

“Laundry.” 

“Netflix.”

“Sleep.”

“Not sure what to eat, but I want to make the transformation.”

“Only have 45 minutes.”

This may be weird, but if you’re not organized for what to eat AFTER the workout…

Don’t hit the gym.

To make the transformation you want…

Hit the kitchen.

Even if you have tried anything and nothing helps you, here is ONE thing that will relieve you…

Tomorrow…

When you wake up in the morning…

Prepare a small, healthy afternoon snack and take it with you.

It could be an apple, banana, almonds, rice cake. 

You’re probably thinking...

“Why?”

Good question. 

First...

It’s healthy but PORTABLE and SIMPLE. 

Second...

It gives you the tools and equipment for the battlefield.

The battle begins at 10am and ends at 3pm.

10am - 3:00pm.

Just those hours are 95% of your day to lose the battle of who you want to be.

I want you to win. 

Here are details and instructions on how to overcome it.  

When you prepare a healthy afternoon snack is easy and important because…

At breakfast, you wake up at home and you can eat something healthy.

At lunch, you won't eat too much because you have a snack.

At dinner, your blood sugar is more stable and craving is low because your willpower is high. 

Benjamin Franklin said, “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”

Be in charge from 10am to 3pm. It’s small but makes a big difference. 

A song…

Car...

Shirt…

Movie…

I like… 

You most likely hate it.

Some of the stuff I’m telling you work.

Some of it doesn’t.

Everyone is different. 

Use people, media and society as guides, but if it doesn’t work, don’t generalize.

Specialize.

Find someone who will plan your attack and steer you through your battle.
