Welcome to Before Breakfast, a production of iHeart Radio.
Good morning. This is Laura.
Welcome to the Before Breakfast Podcast. Today's tip is that while results might not be immediate, when you do things day after day, they do add up.
Over time, things will move in the right direction.
Today's tip comes from an interview James Clear did on Peter Attia's podcast. Clear, who is the author of Atomic Habits, said that over long time horizons, your results tend to bend in the direction of your habits.
I think this phrase is an encouraging one because the words long time horizon and tend make it clear what we are up against. Change can take a long time.
These words normalize that results are not guaranteed to be immediate.
Sadly, you can't take one day off from drinking soda or alcohol and expect your entire life to change.
There are no promises of seeing results in seven days or even seven months.
Tend to bend also means that not all movement will be in the direction of their desired results.
You can definitely see setbacks.
You might be trying to build more local friendships, so you put a lot of time into cultivating a friendship with someone local.
And then she moves.
You put a lot of effort into starting a running habit.
and then you get injured.
These things can be incredibly discouraging.
But if you keep at it, most likely you will eventually move in the right direction.
You just need to stick with it.
Personally, I'm trying to build the habit of strength training.
As a 40 -something woman with a history of back issues, I know I need to build my muscle strength to avoid pain and injury.
In 2023, I started doing a weekly strength session with a virtual trainer.
I usually repeat what we do together in another session or two on my own each week.
Trust me, I do not love it.
Alert listeners might also remember that I had a massive back pain episode in early 2024, which was one year into serious strength training.
This was discouraging for sure, but over time one does get stronger.
I've noticed that I am able to pick up my five -year -old more easily these days, even as he gets bigger.
Results tend to bend in the direction of your habits.
So if there is a result you want in your life, identify little ways you could move yourself in that direction.
And then just be patient.
Notice little changes if you possibly can.
Maybe they won't happen today.
Probably not tomorrow either.
But eventually the movement will be clear.
In the meantime, this is Laura.
Thanks for listening.
