Habits 101 – Ultimate guide to building indestructible habits – Propane Podcast 83 & Propane Picks

Propane Podcast Episode 83 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKaaCduqz-U Show Notes Do you find yourself falling off the wagon, and into a haze of wagon wheels? When we fail to stick to a new habit (or can’t shake a destructive one), we often think it’s because we’re not motivated enough, or our willpower isn’t strong enough. So we push harder, trying to rely on raw willpower to establish a new habit. This is like trying to sprint everywhere. You can maybe improve your ability to sprint, maybe even quite significantly. ..but trying to do the winter commute that way isn’t so manageable. Recently I covered the secrets of building indestructible habits (and eliminating destructive ones) in depth for our VIP client weekly modules. The Propane Athletes found it so useful for transforming their habits, that they said they didn’t mind if we let this one slip and share it with you guys for free. We discuss the anatomy of a habit, the 90 day goals process, how to make a habit stick,  strategies for habit stacking and a whole host of useful tools to aid you in the habit building process.

Our Top Pick this week is: Why Everyone Needs to Meditate - Shane Trotter, Breaking Muscle Meditation is a practice with a slight image problem. It gets nothing but praise from health and psychology literature, and from our most elite performers. But most people see meditation as a bizarre first step towards a life of Volkswagen vans and Birkenstocks. In this article Shane disputes the myths & discusses why we would all benefit from including meditation in our daily practice. The rest of the list is pretty awesome too!
