Change is not going to be easy, you’re going to fail, but how you deal with that failure can make all the difference in the world. I’ve already covered a Growth or Be Better Mindset mindset back in Episode 84 - How to punch failure in the face today we’re going to focus on self-talk, with some growth mindset strategies intertwined.

I usually like going to these events, I mean who doesn’t want to go to a function where you hardly know anyone and sit in a corner by yourself, while you use wheat thins to slowly shovel brie cheese covered in maple syrup and nuts one mouthful at a time, justifying each bite is okay because you have grapes on your plate. Sounds like a good Saturday night if you ask me......

info_outlineI just finished reading the Obesity Code by Dr. Jason Fung and as the title suggests this book is about obesity, more or less how it happens, the nuances around it and what you can do about. It’s a long book, but it’s not a heavy read and although he covers a lot of very well researched scientific concepts that can get complicated, he’s very good at relaying the information in a palpable, interesting and slightly humorous way, which is the reason I prefer this book over other similar books I’ve read. Today I want to cover the main point of the book or the biggest take away that I think is the most important so that even if you don’t read the book you can still understand it’s version of why obesity happens and you can still apply some of the concepts and principles to your life.
