You keep saying you don’t have time to work out. That’s not the real issue. In this episode I break down why life is never going to slow down, no matter how much you tell yourself it will, and what actually separates people who stay in shape from people who wait forever. If you’re serious about being the 1% who has it all, this is the mindset shift you need to make today.

Yo yo guys, what is going on? It's the boy GB man. I appreciate you guys for rocking with me another week of becoming division where we talk about becoming the person that you need to be in order to have the life that you so uh desire. As always, I appreciate you guys' time and attention. Um that I'll jump right into today. Um you will not find the time, you need to make the time. You will not find the time, you need to make the time. So many people, um, not so many people, I have just ran into a pocket of people over the last couple of weeks that will tell me how they are sick of having high blood pressure, some have diabetes, some have confidence issues because their clothes don't fit, they don't want to take their pool off the at the beach or the swimming pool, or you know, they're not able to keep up with their son, and you know, just a lot of shit, right? The things that people are really experiencing. But then they will go in to tell me that they don't have the time. You know, I just I'm not sure this program will work for me because you know, I'm just so busy. And I'm like, okay, cool. Um, so let me ask you a question. When are you when is your life gonna slow down? And most people will go never, I mean, it's it's never gonna slow down. And I'm like, alright, awesome. So at that point, you have two options. The first question that you have to ask yourself is, are you okay or happy with where you are right now? Most people will say no. Right? And so you're like, okay, cool. You're not happy. So either A, you continue to allow your schedule to dictate whether you will eventually become happy, healthy, um, have the energy that you want, and have the confidence that you want. Or you say, you know what? I've always said that I'm too busy, which has led me to looking and feeling like I do now. And I really need to do something about it. Because the truth of the matter is, guys, is that so many of you are waiting for your life to slow down. It's a fallacy, it will never slow down, and then so if you don't force like time into your schedule to actually take care of yourself, you're not going to ever change. You know, nothing changes if nothing changes. Um, I think that you have to stop and really, really ask yourself, am I willing to inconvenience myself for a limited amount of time in order to get the things that I say that I want? Because a lot of you could actually get up at five o'clock in the morning and work out, but you don't do it because you're too comfortable with where you are. Yes, it's gonna be a little bit of an inconvenience, you're probably gonna have to go to bed a little bit earlier at night to get up earlier to then take care of yourself. Um, you know, just to kind of like a caveat on that, is so many people will talk about how I don't want to say they talk about it. I think a lot of people look at spending money on yourself in a program or taking care of yourself as selfish, like taking time to go to the gym, taking time to eat the right foods, taking time to like actually just fucking take care of yourself as selfish. Um, I bring that up because I actually had a client, like they're actually in the program now, you know, and I was like, uh we had went over the pricing structure and the program time frame and everything else like that, and they were just kind of like they paused and they weren't really saying anything. And I was like, What are you thinking? And they're like, Well, I just I just feel like it's it's selfish for me to spend this much money on myself. And I'm like, Okay, cool. So let's backtrack. You told me that you're not exactly happy with where you are, like how you look, how you feel, all of that stuff right now, right? Describe to me again what is gonna get better in your life once you hit this goal, this target that you said you have. And they're like, Well, I'm you I'm gonna become a better spouse, I'm going to become a better mother, I'm gonna have more energy, I'm gonna have more confidence, I'm probably gonna want to go out more, um, I'm gonna have more confidence showing up in my career, so which means I'm probably going to do better at my job, which would mean that I'll probably get a better promotion, I'll make more money. And I paused on there and I was like, okay, cool. What part of that sounds selfish? Right? What part of that sounds selfish because you're actually going to become better to then be able to execute and take care of better care of those around you? What part of that sounds selfish? None of it, right? And guys, going back to the time thing, it's like I said in the beginning, you have got to stop saying that you're too busy. You're not that fucking busy, you're just not. Because if I said, hey, you have to work out every single day, the day that you do not work out, the next day you will surely die. Say that was a rule. I know, really wild rule in the world. Would you ever miss a day? No. Why? Because you don't want to die. You're going to make all the time that you need to make in order to do the thing. I don't care if it was fucking 9:30 at night, you're gonna be like, oh shit, let me get this workout in, let me make sure it happens. You can take that level of thought and apply it now. It doesn't, you don't have to wait for something extreme to happen. Because I have met so many people that say, Well, now it's just not the right time. I just need to wait. And when I say time, it can mean your schedule, it can mean the finances that you feel that you have in place, because a lot of you have the financial means to be able to invest in yourself, but you don't do it because you think that, well, one, again, you think that it might be selfish for you to invest money in yourself, but then two, it's like, oh, well, I have a kid's birthday party coming up, or I have attire that I need to change, or and then so when I say time, not just a day, the the time of year, and the truth is, guys, is that something will always come up. Your schedule will always be busy, something will always pop up in your life, and then so you have to stop and ask yourself, are you okay with continuously not being where you want to be in life? And then where you are physically and health-wise, how is this actually affecting you? And if you take the extreme of if I don't work out today, the next day I will surely die, you would find time. Well, you wouldn't even find time, you would make the time, you will carve out, you would cut out stupid shit in your life, you would take out Netflix, you would take out scrolling on TikTok late at night, you would do, you would change your life. So why not just take that frame of mind and do those things now? What would it actually take in order for you to make the time to then improve your health, improve your vitality, improve your confidence, improve your energy? All of this shit, what would you have to do now in order to make that happen, guys? Because I promise you, you will never, you will never find the time. I always um get disappointed when I'm speaking to somebody about joining the program, and they tell me how right now isn't necessarily the time for them to join. And they go, hey, you know, I'm in school right now, you know, I'm studying for this master's after, you know, I'm I'm gonna get back with you. I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna get back with you. What are we in? Uh July. You know, school is gonna slow down around October, November, and then I'm gonna call you back. Guys, in 20 years, I have never heard from a single fucking person. Never, right? And it is because I understand how people operate. When you are in that moment of wanting to change your life, it is important, imperative, SAT word, that you do something in that moment. Because I guarantee you that if you wait till your life, quote, slows down, something else will take its place. Something else will take its place. It's just how life works, which is why if somebody says, hey, can I call you back tomorrow, to think about it? Hey, can I can I can I check with you back in two weeks? Like, you know, let me just get my my my calendar organized, let me get like let me look at my finances, let me, guys, it will never be the right time to change your life. It is why you have been stuck for so many years. Because you already know that you should eat right, you should work out, but you're not doing the shit. Why aren't you doing it? It's not a lack of motivation, it's because you keep trying to convince yourself that you're so fucking busy and you're just not. Guys, I have two children, I have a wife, I have a mortgage, I have car notes, I have a business that I'm running, I have all of these things going on. So you can't say that, well, he just doesn't understand my life. I I understand that you're busy, yes, cool. But do you want to do something about it? If the answer is no, cool, it is what it is. I'm not trying to convince you any further. But if you do want to do something about it, which is who I'm talking to, the thing that is holding you back is that you keep trying to convince yourself that there's just not enough time in the day, and really you're just not efficient with the time that you do have. And so if you really truly, truly want to change your life, especially physically, quit saying that you do not have the time. Because the time will never show up. And most people just really say they are so busy because this makes you sound important. And honestly, guys, all of us are gonna die and everybody's gonna freak at your name, so none of us are that fucking important in the first place. Love you guys alive. Quit saying that you don't have time, make the time to take care of yourself so that you can show up and be better for those around you. Love you guys alive. Until next time. Peace.
