One thing I’ve learned about building self-confidence: You can’t become truly confident until you have learned to spot your own self-deception. The thoughts in your head often lie. “I can’t do this.” “I’m not capable.” They feel true—but they’re not. When you recognize this

Fitness takes time. The fastest way to speed it up? Stop quitting every few weeks.

If you create a new life plan every six months, you’re just chasing the dopamine rush of fresh beginnings. What you lack is the perseverance to push through when things get hard. The greatest gift you can give yourself is to recognize this now—not when you’re in the twilight

One way parents can help cultivate thankfulness in their children is to stop complaining about everything that is wrong in the world and be intentional about pointing out the good.

Opportunism is taking advantage of situations for personal gain, with little regard for principles, consistency, or long-term consequences. It can be difficult to recognize because it often disguises itself as a noble cause. In reality, it’s usually a strategy to acquire power.

Many Christians hear the word “secularism” and immediately think it’s opposed to faith. But historically, that’s not the full story. In fact, secularism itself has roots in Christian thought. Early advocates weren’t trying to erase religion but to build a truly free society—one

Every rep you lift is a vote against frailty and decline.

Muscle is youth—lose it and you age faster, build it and you turn back the clock.

The less time you spend regretting the past or worrying about the future, the more energy and freedom you’ll have.

What you avoid controls you. #dothehardthing

Real growth happens when you see that chasing the next “new idea” over and over again isn’t inspiration. It’s a pattern that keeps you stuck.

I’m a die-hard Seattle Seattle Seahawks fan and I’m fired up about them winning the Super Bowl. What I’ve loved just as much is watching Mike Macdonald lead. He carries himself with humble confidence. It’s rare. And it sets the tone for the whole team. #leadership #confident #humble

When you forget to bring your gym clothes, but you still train anyway! Luckily it was back & biceps today! #wranglerjeans #doit #mindandbody
