This episode focuses on how we cheat ourselves out of the future we dream of because we don't understand how our actions today create that future. Listen in to these key points:
- Stop waiting for the “perfect time” to start working towards your goals – resolve to begin today.
- Remember that obstacles and challenges are part of life’s fabric, not temporary disruptions. Learn to progress despite them.
- Be aware of how often you prioritize others’ needs over your own goals and the impact this may have on your life’s trajectory.
- Commit to taking action, even if you’re unsure of the perfect first step. Action often leads to clarity.
- Be willing to tolerate the discomfort of developing new skills or habits, rather than avoiding it and deferring your progress.
- It’s important not to just visualize your end goal, but also the daily effort required to achieve it

Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:
Healthy men under 65:
No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.
Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:
No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.
No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.
One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.
Abstinence from alcohol
Abstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.
