Stop Admiring The Ceiling

from On Purpose with Ryan McEwan · host Ryan McEwan

In this episode, Ryan discusses the importance of setting realistic goals and maintaining consistency in achieving them. He emphasizes the concept of "raising the floor" rather than just focusing on the ceiling, which represents our highest aspirations. He shares personal experiences of how he tends to ignore progress when things don't go perfectly, which he likens to admiring the ceiling while neglecting the floor. He advises you to build systems that support your goals, such as maintaining minimum standards for diet, exercise, and sleep, even on bad days. He also recommends tracking failures and focusing on the worst-case scenario to ensure continuous progress and resilience. Listen in!
