Many times we confuse effort with progress real. The exercise Difficult-Easy vs. Difficult-Difficult will help you distinguish the actions comfortable that actually bring you closer to your goal.<\/p>\n

Following the line of the previous blogs, where we talk about:<\/p>\n

1. How to set up a habit<\/p>\n

2. Strategies to segment the actions which bring us more<\/p>\n

efficient to the creation of habits<\/p>\n

Now let's talk of the most difficult element, the choice of the action I<\/p>\n

benefits, because as sure you will have passed, you've found a host of<\/p>\n

skills you need to develop to achieve your goal. But what about All actions have the same impact? How do I know what is the one that I need?<\/p>\n

And to answer this question I leave you with the following exercise that I find super<\/p>\n

interesting and helpful.<\/p>\n

A few months ago I started taking a course that made me reflect on a theme<\/p>\n

that puts in perspective the difficulty of the actions we take to achieve a<\/p>\n

goal or improve one aspect of our lives.<\/p>\n

Because we all know how difficult it is to blame for spending over a month, but what<\/p>\n

that is actually difficult it is to divert money to the beginning of the month and save it.<\/p>\n

And yes! this is applicable in every aspect of our lives.<\/p>\n

In the following lines I will try to give you an example of the exercise of reflection<\/p>\n

I learned, that reminded me of this point, it is called Difficult-Easy vs. Difficult-Difficult.<\/p>\n

And, if!, we all know that no one learns in the head outside, however, you'll want to<\/p>\n

leave a personal experience that certainly resembles some stage of your life.<\/p>\n

Throughout my life I have been a person that likes to stay in shape, enjoy<\/p>\n

having a capacity of optimal physical, and if why not say, to look good in the mirror.<\/p>\n

However, during my time at university I began to notice that I was a little bit more<\/p>\n

difficult to keep in balance my physical performance and body image. I even got to<\/p>\n

find remedies on all of the sites from the routines published by the world-famous magazine<\/p>\n

Mens Health up to folk remedies for fat burn (cardio in fasting, not carbs,<\/p>\n

saunas).<\/p>\n

And you wonder, do you Served? and I regret answering \u201cNo\u201d.<\/p>\n

So, the same as every good person desperate and with bad advice regarding<\/p>\n

to physical performance and body composition, I figured \u201cit will be that I'm not doing the<\/p>\n

enough exercise\u201d and it was so as to reach countless hours at the gym, double<\/p>\n

high intensity sessions, and to consume protein hydrolyzed.<\/p>\n

And here you think \u201csure, that if he served,\u201d and I will return to desilusionarte and tell you \u201cNO\u201d<\/p>\n

In fact, he began to have an effect completely opposite to that expected,<\/p>\n

I started to feel tired all the time, I slept in class, I noticed that<\/p>\n

began to accumulate fat at the abdominal level. And as you well can imagine, in time of<\/p>\n

to listen to my body and listen to these signals, I persevered in this line of action<\/p>\n

for many years, demanding my body more than I could.<\/p>\n

Until one fine day, I questioned what actually I am doing everything I can?<\/p>\n

Or, better said, what I am doing everything I should?<\/p>\n

In fact, during these years I was doing activities that gave me only the<\/p>\n

feeling of progress and most importantly, activities that my mind was ready to<\/p>\n

perform, which were not necessarily the me that I was going to do to improve.<\/p>\n

And now you will do and what activities you would have done to improve? What does not all<\/p>\n

is the exercise?<\/p>\n

Well look what desgloso in a simple way and using the exercise that you proposed to<\/p>\n

start:<\/p>\n

Actions Difficult-Easy (lead an effort, but it is an effort manageable and<\/p>\n

regularly are not the ones that we're missing in the equation), an example of this in my<\/p>\n

case:<\/p>\n

-Exercise regularly<\/p>\n

-Plan my time to prioritize move<\/p>\n

-Meter exercise in complex schedules (nights)<\/p>\n

-Take bars of protein<\/p>\n

Actions Difficult-Difficult (beyond the effort, involving a true commitment<\/p>\n

and are those which we often miss, which bring us closer to our goal and the<\/p>\n

truly difficult because they take us out of our comfort zone) example of<\/p>\n

this in my case:<\/p>\n

-Plan my hours of training schedules, relevant (at least before the 21:00<\/p>\n

hrs)<\/p>\n

-Sessions less intense, shorter, but more focused on a person with<\/p>\n

multiple activities claimants (medical student)<\/p>\n

-Decrease my consumption of alcohol in each party (yes, before I was drinking a lot)<\/p>\n

-Prioritize my sleep, sleep at least 8 hours (to allow my body to burn<\/p>\n

fat and build muscle)<\/p>\n

-Eat lean protein and quality<\/p>\n

-In general, eating more balanced and prioritizing the quality<\/p>\n

After reading this I invite you to do this exercise, think of which<\/p>\n

are the activities that take you out of the truth of your comfort zone, those activities that<\/p>\n

you know that would benefit you, but it is quite an effort. Because<\/p>\n

we all know that it's hard to pay the gym, but it is even more difficult to go every day.<\/p>\n

Remember that life begins outside of our comfort zone.<\/p>\n

And if in spite of reflection you still hard to define the actions that you<\/p>\n

benefit or do not know how and where to start, don't wait like me to your<\/p>\n

body is screaming, desperate for help. Come and ask us, we have some<\/p>\n

tools that you can target.<\/p>\n
