When You Don’t Feel Like It
Did you know you have a FLI muscle? We all have one and for many, it’s very puny and severely under-developed. It’s FLI for short and stands for Feel Like It.
Can you guess the muscle that we spend the most time training and nurturing? This muscle is huge like Popeye’s bicep.
It’s the ID FLI muscle which stands for I don’t feel like it or I Don’t FLI.
How many times do you want to achieve something and don’t? The operative word is want. We want a shit-ton of stuff but who cares.
Are you prepared to commit to achieving it? Are you prepared to hold yourself completely accountable to take the often uncomfortable actions you know you need to do even when your ‘I Don’t FLI’ muscle flexes itself?
You atrophy your I Don’t FLI muscle by consistently building and using your FLI one.
It boils down to this simple question: Do you want to FLI through life and accomplish meaningful goals or don’t you?
