Building Better Habits: The Power of Training Your Mind
Only then will you begin to behave and act differently. Only then will you stop seeking the impossible, the short-sighted and the unnecessary.
What if you could train your mind to make decisions that lead to a better life? That's the idea Josh Folkmann-Riley explores in this episode of 'The Daily Recovery'. Reflecting on a passage from 'The Daily Stoic', Josh dives into the importance of discipline and self-regulation. He argues that without these, our minds are easily swayed by external events, leading us to make hasty and often regrettable choices.
But with the right training and habits, we can replace poor decision-making with wisdom and perseverance. Josh uses relatable examples from everyday life, such as a dog chasing cars or a child who never learns boundaries, to illustrate his points. He also touches on the dangers of striving for the impossible and emphasizes making decisions grounded in personal morals.
This episode is a treasure trove of practical advice for anyone looking to improve their life, whether you're in recovery or just seeking personal growth. Josh's reflections are not just theoretical; they are drawn from his own experiences, making them deeply personal and relatable. Tune in for a dose of daily wisdom that can help you start making 'golden decisions' today.
