When you get sick of your own bullcrap

I had my supplements out on the counter, including my Code Red Stress Support AM.

I stepped away to do something, came back, and you know what I saw?

Hazel had gotten hold of a Stress Support AM capsule (she grabbed it off the friggin’ counter) and was trying to eat it.

I say “trying” because she kept spitting it back out, making a “doggy gagging sound,” and picking it back up again. She finally did gulp it down before I could stop her.

🤦‍♀️

On one of my live Q&As the next day, somebody joked that maybe Hazel was feeling some stress. 😂

If you’re new to Code Red, you may not know that Hazel is my Belgian Malinois. They’re a very high-energy, mentally active breed that needs near-constant physical and mental stimulation.

(They’re also NOT family pet material, so for the love of God, if you’re thinking of getting one, DON’T!)

And just like a toddler, if you turn your back for a few minutes, and they go quiet, it probably means they’re getting into something they shouldn’t be.

Of course, we do this as adults, too. Meaning, we get into things we probably shouldn’t, including the food we choose to eat.

A lot of times, we won’t do anything about our choices until we get sick enough of our own bullcrap.

Getting sick of my own bullcrap is one of many reasons I decided to make a bodybuilding comeback in my mid-forties AND make a documentary out of it.

It was the ultimate way to get skin in the game.

You’ll see it all unfold in my worldwide documentary…the tears, the trials, the triumphs…all of it.

Go here to see all the places you can buy/rent it, including Apple TV, Amazon video on demand, and more.

The bottom line is, you’ve gotta want to be different more than you want your excuses.

You don’t even have to know how to be different yet. You’ll find the way when you make your mind up.

Make your mind up NOW that you’re 100% committed to being different, no matter how hard or boring it gets, and you WILL do your part to make it happen.

If, on the other hand, you only kinda sorta want to be different, you will kinda sorta get there.

The decision is yours.

That doesn’t mean you have to do it alone. 

It DOES mean no one else can decide for you (and even if they do, it won’t work, because if you fail, you’ll blame them).

Do you want to be different more than you want your excuses?
