Overcoming resistance is all about letting go of perfection, the pressure to get everything right, and cultivating discipline to execute the next step to make progress.

By understanding the patterns and triggers of our resistance and creating a plan to help us make the next step with clarity, we can overcome resistance and forge ahead toward our goals.

Lessons Learned From a Recovering Judgey PrickMany people spend most of their lives operating from the point of judgment by default. However, it is not a personality trait but a learned behavior that can be unlearned. It all starts in your center of reasoning. Whatever you process internally is exactly what you will project to the world, and surprisingly, it’s exactly what the world will mirror back to you. Be positive, and you will receive positivity. Be judgemental, and that’s what the world will give back. Your rapport with people and relationships can take off when you grow from judging to accepting. But where do you begin? How do you start rewriting your story from one of judgment to a more optimistic life?

We have all fantasized about belonging to a circle of influential friends who could mentor us to greatness just as they achieved it. This is because genuine relationships, one of the most unseen yet crucial attributes to success, can propel us further and faster. However, the bitter truth is that such relationships, even with influencers, require investment. No matter how exceptional you believe yourself, no one will befriend someone who solely drains their energy. You can't expect them to expend their time, resources, and networks to validate your specialness. You must contribute in return. It is a give-and-take endeavor.

In this episode, your host, Paul Lyngso, shares more about this powerful principle of success and how he has used it to achieve most of his success in business and friendships. You will learn that no influential individual or desired mentor will simply appear. You must work and "pay" for their attention with your skills, time, resources, expertise, and genuine care.

• If you are in a relationship that is constantly taking away from you and they are never bringing anything to the table, it is not a genuine relationship.- (12:16)
• Every successful relationship has some form of transaction, whether that is energetic or emotional payment. - (14:20)

While aiming high with clear and SMART goals seems like the path to success, sometimes it can trap us. The "specific" part, meant to keep us on track, can turn into a cage, trapping us in a rigid plan. We all know that life will always throw twists and turns that we may not have control over, even if our plan is perfect. If our goals are too inflexible, we miss opportunities to grow and become better versions of ourselves. Life is about adapting, and sometimes, the best way to live life to the fullest is to loosen our grip on those overly specific goals and let life open us to the amazing changes that make us even better versions of ourselves.

Join the conversation with your host, Paul Lyngso, as he shares more insights on why SMART goals might ruin your happy life. When you get too specific in a goal, you create a binary. Anything you achieve that does not fit into alignment is seen as a failure, which is dangerous to your subconscious mind. Additionally, such goals pin you to the wall and rip you off the power to make adjustments and changes that could lead to a better and more meaningful life.

• Sometimes, you need to take a new direction from your goals. When your perspective changes, you start seeing things from a different vantage point. -(07:35)
• Check your goals. There is so much you can’t control when achieving a specific outcome. You don’t want to tell yourself that you are failing continually. (10:36)
• Reserve the right to change your mind. If what you wanted yesterday is not what you want today, don’t just silence that voice, but have a conversation with yourself. - (10:47)

Ambition Vs. Goals: Why I’m Not Goal Oriented

In a world that often celebrates setting and achieving goals, we often gravitate towards goals rather than pursuing our ambitions and potential. While ambition propels us forward, our inclination to be overly goal-oriented stems from a desire to measure our progress, run the scorecards, and for external validation. Ambition, a dynamic force rooted in a continuous hunger for improvement, allows for adaptability and innovation in the face of evolving circumstances. Ambition is acknowledging our potential, and that the journey is as significant as the destination, and in cultivating ambition, we open ourselves to a broader spectrum of possibilities unbound by the limitations of preconceived objectives.

• Everybody wants to grow their business, but if you are not paying attention to the ratios, it will fuck you up. - (11:29)

Attaining true masculinity goes beyond just physical fitness. It involves harmonizing physical well-being with personal style through dressing. Clothing is not just functional attire but a medium for self-expression and communication. How you dress reflects your identity, values, and aspirations. By neglecting this aspect, you present an incomplete picture of yourself. Fathers and husbands should take pride in their appearance as role models, demonstrating respect and self-esteem, positively impacting their relationships and careers.

Join the conversation with your host, Paul Lyngso, as Tanner Guzy joins us for a candid conversation on style and masculinity. Tanner is a style and image consultant who empowers men to unlock their true potential by dressing well and projecting a confident, authentic image. He believes that in today's world, where first impressions matter more than ever, men must dress strategically to stand out and succeed in their business endeavors. Tanner's approach goes beyond simply picking out the right clothes; he helps men understand the psychology of style and how to use it to their advantage. His clients learn to dress in a way that reflects their unique personalities and aligns with their career goals, achieving a powerful and authentic presence that attracts opportunities and inspires others.

Notable Quotes

• When people don’t see the congruence between the person, we advertise ourselves to be and who we really are, they believe us to be dishonest, untrustworthy, and lacking genuineness.- (00:54).
• When you dress in an aesthetically good way and in a way that represents who you are, you feel better than you ever do in your cargo shorts and graphic t-shirts. -(03:55)
• It does not entirely mean you should not judge someone by their appearance. Our dressing sends powerful signals of who we are to the environment. - (09:54)
• Sometimes, we have so much psychological cowardice when we hide who we really are from the people who matter the most to us and, most importantly, how we see ourselves. (23:30)
• Fathers and husbands have a greater obligation to dress well. - (25:20)
• The skeleton key to life is discovering yourself and presenting that to the world. Once you project yourself to the world, the right people will catch your signals. - (41:36)

Beyond Busyness: Everything About Work Ethics Is Wrong

Everything about work ethics is wrong when we blindly equate it with the notion of being a hard worker. The societal perception and glorification of hard work and relentless toil as the ultimate measure of success can obscure the importance of focusing on growth and what we want to achieve. It is, therefore, essential to shift the narrative from the quantity of work to the quality of work, emphasizing efficiency, innovation, growth, results, and strategic thinking over mere exertion. True success lies not in the sheer volume of hours spent laboring but rather in the meaningful impact and tangible results we can deliver. Rethinking our approach to work ethics can lead to a more balanced and fulfilling professional life, where emphasis is placed on growth and evolution rather than a misplaced idealization of constant busyness.

In this episode, your host, Paul Lyngso, shares more about work ethics and how you can channel your hard work toward building competency and reliability, the true cornerstones of success. Learn how to focus on what it takes to produce the results, let go of the need for validation and approval, and be present in the season.

Tune in!

Key Highlights from the Show

[00:01] Introduction to the show

[00:12] How hard work ties to competency and reliability

[02:02] The arbitrary nature of hard work as a success standard

[04:08] Paul’s social conditioning and how it costs him his sales job

[05:52] How hard work can become a protective mechanism for our ego

[08:08] The risk: What happens when you are result driven

[09:08] Celebrating hard work vs. growing and getting better over time.

[10:45] Creating results and living from a place of truth, not frustrations

[12:12] Wrap-up and end of the show

Notable Quotes

• The arbitrary nature of hard work as a standard is to keep us on a treadmill that creates a massive sense of internal struggle. - (02:06)
• When we remove the reward from achieving a task and replace it with working hard, we get so deeply focused on showing everybody how busy we are that we completely lose sight of the results. - (02:41)
• Hard work can get you validation and approval, but the same validation can keep you in your comfort zone and from getting what you want. - (07:58)
• Hard work is just a pre-requisite for any situation; it’s not something we should be celebrated for; it’s the price of admission. - (09:30)
• When we celebrate hard work, we’re lowering the bar and expectation of what it means to be a man, woman, or adult in society; celebrate growth, being honest with yourself, and getting better over time. - (10:07)

Finding Your Clarity and Taming the Busyness Beast

In today's fast-paced world, it's undeniably challenging to resist the allure of constant busyness. The demands of daily life often conspire to keep us in a perpetual state of urgency, leaving little room for what truly matters in the long run. It's essential to break free from the head-down mode, allowing ourselves to look beyond the immediate and cultivate the fortitude to say "No" to tasks and distractions that do not align with our long-term vision. While the urgent may provide a sense of accomplishment in the short term, it's the important goals and dreams that drive us that truly shape our future. Learning to prioritize the significant over the merely pressing is a valuable skill in achieving a fulfilling and purpose-driven life.

Join the conversation with your host, Paul Lyngso, as he shares strategies and an invaluable framework for achieving clarity on your mission and vision while ensuring your success and that of your team remain at the forefront.

Training is not just a routine but about being smart in your approach. Instead of blindly doing activities like walking, yoga, or hitting the gym, we should think of fitness intelligently by understanding that fitness falls under three main pillars: athleticism, lifting, and endurance. At Lyngso Fitness Academy, we believe that all three are important. But you do not need to go crazy in just one direction. You should blend them to reach your fitness goals in a better way. By combining these three pillars, you can train in a way that gives you the desired experiences and keeps you healthy.

Join this conversation with Paul and Tony as we discuss these pillars, what it means to be athletic, and how you can become more athletic, even if you were not born naturally gifted in this area. We will also discuss the many advantages of lifting weights and improving cardiovascular fitness. Being stronger makes life easier and helps you endure challenges better. It is a sign of a healthy nervous system; having muscle as you age makes you more resilient. Being weak can be risky, and you might not realize its limits until you get stronger.

The Power of Vision in Cultivating Long-term Behavior Change

Have you ever reached a point where you know what to do and just need to do it but are not doing it? Understanding what you need to take action and create long-term behavior change is the key to progress, and harnessing the power of vision is the catalyst for cultivating lasting behavior change. Learning to move beyond your willpower, discipline, motivation, and pain will help you get moving, but it will not keep you in the game. It's the vision of who you want to become, what you want to achieve, and what your values are that act as a magnetic force, pulling you toward your goals. When your vision is crystal clear and emotionally charged, it becomes your unwavering compass, guiding your actions day after day, transforming intentions into habits, and ultimately leading to long-lasting change and transformation.

Join the conversation with your host, Paul Lyngso, as he discusses how to cultivate long-lasting behavior change and the transformative power of creating a clear vision that propels you toward personal growth and achievement. Paul also illuminates why traditional approaches centered around discipline, willpower, and moving away from pain may have their place but are often insufficient in cultivating long-lasting change. Tune in and get insights on how envisioning and becoming your ideal self can be the ultimate driving force for your end goal, offering you the sustainable desire needed to achieve your goals and foster profound, enduring change.

[18:16] What happens when you create your ideal or aspiration identity

[20:10] Making living in alignment with your vision your second nature

[21:17] Wrap-up and end of the show

Notable Quotes

• Willpower and discipline will always fade, and often they push us to do something that we don’t want to do; if you are in pain or in a situation that you strongly detest, you can master up the effort to do something you don’t want to do, but you can only do it if the pain of where you are is more than doing the thing you don't want to do. - (00:36).
• Pain can push you to do things you don't want, but having a clear vision for yourself will pull you forward. - (03:42)
• Vision needs to be crystal clear and updated regularly: if you don't have a crystal clear vision of who you want to become, what you want out of life, and what your values are, you are not going to have a vision that pulls you forward. - (04:10)
• The key to achieving something huge is knowing who you need to become to achieve that goal and becoming it. (14:13)
• Having a clear picture of the lifestyle you want, what you want to achieve, and who you want to become gives clarity into the vision of your life, creates the desire that pulls you forward, and makes the behaviors that are uncomfortable easy to stick with because the desire to bring your vision to reality outweighs the discomfort.

What is success? Is it simply financial stability of material possessions? What metrics do you track to consider your life successful? Or do you get frustrated by trying to live up to someone else's definition of success? Tune in to this episode to hear why defining success for yourself is the most important work you can do! Everyone has the capacity to create the limitless boundaries of their own success, not based on the traditional narrative of accumulating wealth. Nobody can tell you what success means for you. You decide it because you are the author of your life. You can create a decision-making framework or process that will set you up for success by ensuring that you define your success, the values you wish to move forward with, and whether the risk you take is acceptable to you.

In this episode, we discuss the internal struggles that nearly everyone experiences but only a couple talk about in the process of creating success. It is the struggle between what we want and should do. Listen and learn an easy decision-making framework that will help you and make it easy to make decisions that lead you to a life of what you actually want.

Have you ever felt unsure if you're making the most of life? Or confused about what path to follow?

Determining if we are on the right path in life can be a profound and often perplexing question, especially in an era of seemingly boundless material comforts yet escalating despair. Amid this paradox, there is no better compass to follow than the idealized version of ourselves. When we possess a clear vision of our potential and the impact we aspire to make in the world and our community, that becomes our guiding star. By setting our goals around our ideal self, we align our actions with our aspirations and draw others toward our purpose. Self-transformation creates a magnet for genuine connections with those who share our core interests and beliefs.

In this episode, we discuss the transformative journey of breaking free from the safety nets we've woven around our lives and daring to chase our deepest desires. We explore the paths to becoming the person our younger selves would look up to with admiration and excitement, filled with a sense of adventure and boundless curiosity. Tune in as we learn how to become a disciple of yourself, committed to the pursuit of your most authentic, adventurous, and joyful self.

Proving value and providing value are two distinct concepts with different impacts on business and relationships. When we relentlessly strive to prove ourselves, we inadvertently push people away. This is because the focus is solely on us, feigning interest in others only as a means to an end. Proving value repels those around us, as it lacks authenticity and genuine care. Building authentic connections with people is an endeavor centered on contribution, not self-validation. It involves understanding what others need and then selflessly meeting those needs. Providing value is about serving, not judging, and it starts with proving your value to yourself by building yourself up and becoming better, which eliminates the compulsion to validate yourself to others and increases your ability to provide value, become a better friend and colleague, and nurture more profound relationships.

In this episode, we discuss the contrast between proving value and providing value. We also explore practical strategies to help switch gears when you find yourself tempted to prove yourself. You don’t have to prove your value to feel valued. Learn how to embrace yourself and develop the ability to authentically provide value to others, fostering more meaningful connections and fulfilling relationships in the process.

Notable Quotes

• The harder we try to prove ourselves, the less people want to be around us. - (01:02).
• Proving our value is repulsive to others because it is all about us, and we are pretending to care about what people want and what they care about to get what we want. - (02:44)
• Proving our value never works in building relationships and business because it isn’t focused on contribution. - (03:00)
• Providing value is all about looking at what someone wants and needs and then giving it to them from a place of service, not a place of judgment. - (07:24)
• If we haven’t been taught to problem-solve for ourselves, it will not be intuitive to problem-solve for others. - (13:24).
• When someone shares an idea that sounds dumb to you, pause and be curious rather than laughing at their face and building walls in your relationship. - (17:39).
• If you have proven your value to yourself, it eliminates the need to prove your value to others; if you don’t have the need to prove your value to others, you can be a better friend and colleague, provide value, and have way better relationships. - (19:31).

How To Live A Life On Fire: A Different Way To Exist

Living a life on fire demands a unique perspective on existence—one rooted in profound self-awareness and the audacity to pursue our deepest desires while embracing continuous personal evolution. Beyond the confines of safety lies the realm of growth, beckoning us to venture into uncharted territories where our potential can be realized, our gifts can blossom, and our identities can flourish. This journey, though very risky, promises immeasurable rewards. It's here that the intrinsic inclination toward safety is broken, and the liberating power of freedom comes to live, challenging our innate inclination for comfort and security. Escaping the clutches of societal conditioning, which often confines us to modest aspirations, and tapping into our boundless potential is all about self-awareness and taking responsibility for dismantling these barriers to move past survival biases to thrive. Refuse to be the bottleneck in your pursuit of creating the life and future you desire.

In this episode, we discuss the art of living a life on fire where the pursuit of growth and freedom and making the highest form of contribution in the world takes center stage. We also talk about social conditioning, binary thinking, the innate survival-driven wiring of our brains, and the key to liberation, which lies in our choices and responsibilities. Living a life of fire is a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, where we transform the ordinary into the extraordinary to make an indelible mark on the world.

• The fear of looking dumb keeps us in line and on paths we have already embraced and keeps us from doing our own thing. - (04:56).

• True freedom is the freedom to choose what you will be responsible for. - (12:20)

In this episode, Paul reflects on a live event for their coaching business, reevaluating the nature of work. Initially, he thought hard work meant countless hours and effort. However, during event preparation, he realized the true work involved deep understanding gained from client interactions and self-reflection. It included organizing thoughts, distilling knowledge, and seeking inspiration.

Paul cautions against romanticizing work for effort and efficiency alone, as it leads to dissatisfaction.

He also announces a podcast break but invites listeners to stay connected through their coaching community and social media.

In this captivating episode, Paul delves into the fascinating concept of discovering your optimal "sweet spot" in the realm of fitness. The sweet spot, as Paul explains, resides at the perfect equilibrium between apathy towards one's health and an overwhelming obsession with fitness. He underscores the profound significance of consistency in our behaviors, encompassing both regular exercise routines and mindful dietary choices, to unlock the path towards achieving an enviable physique. Beyond mere physical transformation, residing in the sweet spot liberates us from the burden of self-imposed restrictions, fostering a sense of freedom and a diminished fear of making missteps along the way.

Paul ventures further into the exploration of the vital factors that truly propel us towards our fitness goals, urging us to comprehend what truly matters and drives progress.

In his insightful discussion, Paul sheds light on the potency of fundamental strength training and low-intensity cardio as potent tools for cultivating a healthy body. Additionally, he critically examines the common tendency of individuals to blindly follow fleeting fitness trends, without truly understanding their personal effectiveness.

In today’s The Missing Piece episode, Paul talks about the feeling of admiration we have towards people who are masters of their craft, and how we often believe that we could never achieve such mastery in our own lives. Specifically, they discuss how this applies to achieving a desired physique, and how people often make assumptions about those who have achieved it that reinforce the idea that it's impossible for them.

Paul then explains how building intuition through education and experience is the key to making things feel effortless and natural and shares a systematic path to achieving mastery in building the body of your dreams. He discusses the stages of unconscious incompetence, conscious incompetence, conscious competence, and unconscious competence, and how to progress through them to reach your goals.

—

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Humans admire mastery in others but often feel it's elusive in their lives.
• We compare ourselves to masters and create stories about why we can't achieve that level of skill or success.
• Making something intuitive is a systematic and repeatable process, and intuition is just education plus experience.
• The path to mastery involves going from unconscious incompetence to conscious incompetence, to conscious competence to unconscious competence.
• Building a great physique is a predictable and systematic process that can be mastered with the appropriate skills and effort.
• If you can push through the point where most people get stuck, building a great physique can feel very easy to sustain forever.

In this episode, Paul Lyngso shares a personal experience of a fitness training call where clients had an "aha" moment. He highlights the importance of beliefs and how they shape the quality of our lives. He shares how a particular belief about laziness and hard work can make us miserable by making us feel like we are never doing enough.

Paul then explains the difference between maintenance and progress and how too many focuses can cause everything to fall apart. The podcast concludes with the speaker explaining why laziness can be useful in achieving goals, and how we can intentionally be smart about being lazy. The podcast offers a fresh perspective on our relationship with hard work and the importance of being intentional about our focus to achieve progress.

Highlights:

• Lightbulb moments realizing people don't have to work out perfectly to maintain their progress
• Maintenance is the minimum effort needed to hold your ground and not go backwards, while progress requires more resources and effort
• Having too many areas of focus can result in nothing getting done well or something falling through the cracks
• Doing anything between maintenance and progress can be thought of as wasted effort
• The belief in hard work and the guilt of feeling lazy can keep you from being fully present and satisfied with your life
• It's important to prioritize and focus on specific areas to avoid spreading yourself too thin
• Laziness should be reconsidered as intentional rest and resource management
• Breaking free from beliefs about hard work and laziness can lead to more satisfaction and presentness in life

Paul is back for another season of The Missing Piece.

In this episode, he talks about the interplay between money and status and why having a lot of money doesn't necessarily equate to high status. He explains that status is all about your position in relation to others and how other people respect and value you. He talks about the problematic thought patterns that can happen if you confuse money with status and how to build status from the inside out. Paul emphasizes that the real flex of status is to show that you have time freedom and freedom of expression, which opens doors and creates more opportunities to make money.
