On Today's Episode: When you haven\u2019t done enough hard things to earn your own respect it\u2019s easy to quit when things get hard. You start to feel lazy and unmotivated because you lack the grit and self-discipline to see anything through to the end.\nOften we lack the motivation to do what success demands of us because we don\u2019t have an identity that aligns with the outcome we say we want. Our poor habits and inability to show up consistently to create the outcome and experience we say we want creates a greater distance between where we are and where we want to go.\nAnthony Trucks started with an enormous gap between the 3 year old that entered the foster care system, the teenager they called \u201cButterfingers,\u201d and the NFL player turned motivational speaker, bestselling author, life coach and podcast host. He advocates the value of hard work and suffering that creates experiences, opportunities and outcomes that make it possible to build a new identity. He helps people learn and do what it takes to shift their identity.\nIn this episode, we\u2019re deep diving into 3 skills Anthony believes will help you avoid being lazy and learn to stay motivated and take action even when you don\u2019t think it\u2019s possible.\n\nSHOW NOTES:\n0:00 | Introduction to Anthony Trucks\n0:08 | Create an Internal Structure\n11:32 | Shift Your Identity\n26:24 | Commit to Do What Is Hard\n42:09 | Work in the Dark, Shine Brighter\n55:53 | Rebuilding a Failed Marriage\n\nFollow Anthony Trucks:\nWebsite: https://anthonytrucks.com/\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/anthonytrucks\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AnthonyTrucks\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/anthonytrucks/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/anthonytrucks\n\nToday's Sponsor:\nBetterHelp: betterhelp.com/impacttheory\n\nAre You Ready for EXTRA Impact?\nIf you\u2019re ready to find true fulfillment, strengthen your focus, and ignite your true potential, the Impact Theory subscription was created just for you.\nWant to transform your health, sharpen your mindset, improve your relationship, or conquer the business world?
