Listen "Maintenance Mode"

Episode Synopsis

Today, I want to talk about maintenance. Why maintenance? I really wanted to hit on this because I think that a lot of people think that maintenance is a good thing. I hear people say all the time that they want to just maintain where they are. Whether it’s their job, their weight, their fitness…they are ready and striving for maintenance mode. 
Have you said those words before? I’m just happy where I am. I am maintaining. I won’t lie. I’ve said them.
But, today, I want to ask you to stop striving for maintenance. I want you to give up maintenance mode. Why? Because maintenance mode is dangerous. If you are focused on maintaining where you are, you aren’t growing.
Focus on maintaining, and you’ll start slowing sliding backwards. You’ve worked too hard to stop now. You don’t want to maintain. You want to gain. You want to move forward. You want actually reach your potential.
Time doesn’t stand still. You are either moving forward, or you are moving backward. Small changes done consistently over time will create massive change. Find something small that you can do today and do it. Then, do it again tomorrow, and the next day, and for 1000 days after that.
Watch out for comfort. Your comfort zone is one of the most dangerous places to be. Step out. Decide to raise the bar. Make the commitment to change your thought process and get clear on who you want to be and what you want. 
Expect resistance. If you experience resistance and you don’t know what to do with it, go back and find the podcast that I did on resistance..it's called The 3 R's. Resistance is a force that I’m all too familiar with, but it reminds me that I’m definitely not living my life in maintenance mode.
Stop maintaining.  Start growing.
Enjoy!
