How to Get What You Want

It’s not because the diet doesn’t work. It’s because you don’t do the work.

It’s not because your plan didn’t work. It’s because you didn’t do the work. 

Any diet works. Any plan works. 

But did you work?

It’s not what anyone wants to hear. But it’s truer than we’d like to admit. We are the ones who don’t show up.

My clients promise me things all the time. I promise myself things all the time. It’s easy to make a promise. It’s easy to make a commitment. I don’t care if you can make a promise. I want to see you keep a promise.

This answer to how to get what you want is almost too obvious, it gets dismissed. I fear I may not grasp it to its fullest extent yet either.

Show up every day and do the work. Every day. No exceptions. No sick days. No cheat days. Every single day.
