Building Better Humans ProjectIt's the start that stops most people. Why? Not because it's difficult or because you can't do it, it's because it's uncomfortable and so many people can't handle discomfort.

Hey, team glenes are here working back to the building. At a Humans Project podcast, i heard a quote and it said the starting is the hardest part, not because it's complex, but because it's uncomfortable. And I've heard of something similar where it said it's the start that stops most people. So whatever it is that you want to do, so you want to get a little bit healthier, you want to get fitter, You're going to go to the gym or you know whatever that sort of thing is that happens to a lot of us, particularly around the start of the year. How often have you not done it? And yet you see people that are fit and you think, why is it so hard for me? Well, it's the start. It's uncomfortable. You've got to put yourself in a situation that you're clearly not used to being in, or you would already be there. People who are really successful in life have the capacity to deal with that discomfort. They have the capacity to get uncomfortable. Now, you might have that capacity and you go out and do that thing and you get uncomfortable and you handle it. But if you're someone that doesn't do that, what you could be looking for is a deeper motivation, a deeper why is one answer, or the second answer is some accountability. Find someone to have in your team that's going to help you get to where you want to get to by holding you accountable to the things that you said you were going to do when you were first inspired or motivated to achieve a goal. Because that motivation, that inspiration, that wears off in my experience, fairly quickly, and it wears off when things get uncomfortable. And here's the thing. Anything that you want to achieve that you've not achieved before is most certainly going to get uncomfortable. So again, I don't care if this is a business goal, a leadership goal, it's a relationship goal, if it's a personal health and fitness goal, it doesn't matter what the goal is. If you don't already have that, if you haven't already achieved that, then you don't have the skill set yet and there's something missing. And when you go to start, you are going to get uncomfortable, and that discomfort is most likely going to be the first hurdle that you're going to trip on. So if that's the case, find a bigger why. Find someone or someone so that you can put in your team to help you find experts in that space that can help and find people that will hold you accountable, not the people that patch you on the back and say it's going to be okay, mate, you don't need to do that thing. We understand that you're busy and the kids have been sick and it's been raining or weak, or they're just excuse, excuse, excuse. Because you said you wanted something, how you show up will tell us if you actually want that something. That's what I do. I work with people to hold them accountable to the things that they said they wanted, and that means even when it gets uncomfortable, I'm going to push them to go and do that thing. Some people aren't built for those conversations. I've had those clients who really struggle with those conversations. They want to be held accountable, but they don't like the discomfort of the conversation. But that's my job and if I can get them past that, I can get them past almost anything.
