Show Notes

Hello friends and welcome to Ep. 10 of The Essential Strength Podcast

Today we are talking with the one and only Chase Chewning, host of Ever Forward Radio.

We get into a lot of deep topics in this episode - from why people fear change to what happens in our own heads when we are left alone with our thoughts.

Chase and David talked about quite a few books during today's episode, In no particular order, here are the books that were mentioned:

1. Shoe Dog by Phil Knight
2. Ego Is The Enemy by Ryan Holiday
3. Stillness Is The Key by Ryan Holiday
4. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson
5. Everything is F*cked by Mark Manson
6. The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday
7. The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy (we talked about this one off air)

Your Homework:

First - grab a piece of paper or open the notes app on your phone. 

Write down one small change you’ve been thinking about making, and one big change you’ve been thinking about making.

Next, write down how you would feel if you made each change. Who would be there to celebrate with you? What emotions are you feeling right now as you write this down? 

Now ask yourself - now that I know how these changes make me feel, is there anything actually standing in my way other than fear? If the answer is no - well, you’ll know what to do.

Until next time, we wish you STRENGTH, and GOOD HEALTH!
