112. Movement in the body is movement in life

Published: March 23, 2022, 7:56 p.m.

Is this weekly newsletter typically about fitness? Not really. Not physical fitness anyway.

But when fitness and health impact your peace and happiness, then of course it relates to peace and possibilities.\xa0 Which, incidentally, is almost all of the time.

My guest this week, Erin Stutland, is full of great ideas to get your life and body moving in the right direction.

The first is to consider which core values you were born with.

Then strive to align those values with your passions.\xa0 Sounds simple, I know.\xa0 It actually is, if you get quiet for a few minutes and just ask yourself a few questions.

Then - and this is the most important part - go for it!\xa0

Take those risks to get what you want. How else will you get there?

And when you are rejected, and you will be, ask yourself "what's the learning or growing I need to do?"

And, as Erin so beautifully put it, obsession does not equal a solution.\xa0

Obsessing about a problem, worrying about it, stressing about it, is not the same as figuring out the solution.\xa0 If it was, stress and worry would always lead to peace and clarity.\xa0 But it doesn't.\xa0 It leads to more stress.

And as many wise people have told us: failure is a part of success, not the opposite of success.

Remember, when taking risks and trying to figure it all out:

As Brad Yates says: whenever we make a choice, two outcomes are possible; neither is final or permanent.

Decide, take the risk, maybe get rejected. And then choose something else.\xa0 Get used to this; this is life!
