10 Habits You Should Stop Having || Chasing Excellence with Ben Bergeron || Ep

[@CorinneTindalStonier]

@Ben Bergeron ... the "make it perfect" "just start" segment is SPOT ON and so profound. Prior to CrossFit, though, I thought I would die if I failed. I was so afraid of failure and stuck in perfectionism that I would not start something if I didn't think I could do it perfectly. Lifting weights taught me that without failure, you can't achieve your maximum potential. Thank you for another great episode.

I get to wake up at 3:45am and coach the 5:00 and 6:00am classes.. our biggest classes! It really is FUN! (As long as I am organized and have everything ready in the morning!)

[@NobodyCares......]

What time do you go to bed ?

[@camilleaigail902]

You hit so many nails on the head! You are a man of great wisdom and knowledge. Thank you for sharing!

[@chefmguessefeld]

These Ben Bergeron vids are superb- just loaded with timeless information. Thank you!

[@hattiekanyo]

I love the 'Don't watch the news'. I haven't watched the news in YEARS. It is negative and just like you said, we cannot control what's going on with it. I just can't handle the negativity from it.

[@MrTeeri4]

This guy is a genus, i love how he puts these wisdom so easily to understand and follow, thank you Ben, love from Ahmed from London England,

[@kainbaker3356]

I really enjoyed this. Thanks for taking the time to make this video

[@KristyMcClellan]

Oh great. I am putting off my writing (I'm an author) to watch this video and the first thing you tell me is to stop procrastinating and get to my writing. The conflict is real.

[@jacklynnbowling2608]

This podcast is filled with so much good information that I can apply to my life

[@AnthonySmith-yu8vc]

OMG!!!! This is the second podcast that I’ve watched of yours… The first one being “don’t get bamboozled by Big food!” Absolutely amazing wisdom and had me real reassess my principles! I will pick up your book today and committing myself to joining CrossFit! Thank you very much for sharing… My mind is buzzing !

[@Loosearrow_and_Sons]

Fantastic, this needs to be said and we need to hear it

[@simon1645]

first time listener, but will be coming back. Such a great video and really spoke to me and things I want to improve on.

[@jkctucker]

Watching or listening to the others is time well spent.

[@ajsinspiredlife665]

Always empowering and uplifting! Powerful points ! Thanks!

[@ThePatrick1079]

This is so inspiring and awesome!!!

[@sethgalante]

Love every idea here. Great self improvement ideas that I will certainly take to heart. I do however, wish that #5 read more like "Learn to consume information" or "Learn to Communicate with People". Much of what you say about news as entertainment is true, and has led us to believe in this combat style of communication when it comes to talking about subjects of importance outside of our immediate life. We become people who wait to talk rather than listen to understand. We believe that if our pile of evidence is larger than the pile of the person we are talking to then we "win" the conversation. This has led us to a terrible place but to abandon the consumption of information not directly important to us can be very dangerous long term. In the short term it is very easy to simply make global statements about "the news" or "politics", and apply negative characteristics that although true to varying degrees, is an oversimplification of a complex problem. You may increase happiness and focus now by avoiding the news, or conversation about controversial topics, but the long term impact of lack of information, division between groups can be immense. Media literacy and productive conversation practices are things that I struggle with every day, but are major mental goals of mine. It is of course important to focus on what you can control, but is it not also important to focus on our collective health as well? Perhaps this could be summed up as "Find a balance between 'I' and 'We'".

Great podcast. If anyone is interested to dive deeper into these items 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey is where many of them came. Amazing book!

[@renatabieniek8768]

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!

[@zuhairalzadjaly9212]

[@GregRanger]

[@petrolene_performancecoach]

Perfection is the killer of all dreams

[@coreysmith4542]

Great insights!!!

[@latebloomer4029]

Great episode as usual, thanks for the content, it really helps. Can you guys please consider doing a podcast focused on how to peak for the games? how Ben does it with his athletes and the process involved in it, like, how to make sure you are not peaking at the wrong time. How does training and the intensity plays a roll here. Do you use Heart rate monitoring for this, etc. Hope you guys consider it.I'm incredibly curious for myself and would love to learn more about it. Thank you ❤️

[@petrolene_performancecoach]

I never watch/read the news for that exact same reason!

[@NRandall15]

Just to inform, the commencement speaker was Admiral McRaven at the University of Texas, his Alma Mater.

[@SamuelDown85]

Love it!

[@belmontdwl]

Still the best.

[@gravemind7545]

I have to check the email before noon because the comptrain email comes in the morning. Other than that, I am close to getting everything.

[@RollerPigg]

I'd say "don't watch the news" falls under "Don't listen to gossip"

[@PsychokoreUndergroundRap]

Good stuff

[@andrewmccray3267]

Ha clean your room. That's the key to slaying the dragon and becoming the archetypal lobster, like this is serious stuff man.

[@kbanks5754]

DON'T EAT AND SCROLL *stops chewing mid-bite and looks guiltily down at plate*

[@wllnessbykarina]

I love San Diego :) :) :) I'll do it soon :)

[@jasonsanders8091]

Don't do anything in haste, unless you are in great danger. Hastiness is not being present.

[@bascal133]

Please do an Episode on katrins regional performance

[@MatthewSouza]

Yes she was incredible this year!

[@dra.emiliaqueiroz]

yeeeessss PLEASEE

[@maxwillson]

The news is a tricky one. If you're addicted to news like I am, stay off social media! I spend less time with news if I watch it on TV or listen to it on a podcast. I always feel obligated with leaving a comment if it's on social media and if an argument breaks out, it'll waste the rest of my day.

[@melgaudart]

Or you could set the alarm to wake you up at the top of the sleep cycle. You feel like you’re nearly awake anyway. Might be more healthy but you’ll have to check on the data there.

[@hochura]

Isnt Tanja always late? :D

[@deandavidson2823]

"clean your damn room" Jordan Peterson

[@Flarex1]

Bro, if you're only snoozing for 9 minutes anyways you're doing it wrong, of course there's no real advantage there. If you're in you better commit

[@rafiton8553]

Isn't this list by itself passing judgement? Also, why shouldn't people watch news? True, in many cases you cannot influence the outcome, but why shouldn't I be informed? The more accurate description maybe should be "be more critical and selective of what's on the news". "Don't read emails until noon" ?? Really? I work in tech - email is part of my life. Moreover, few of the most successful tech execs advise to deal with emails first thing in the morning to free the rest of the day to doing stuff.

[@PO53286G]

I’m basically a terrible human being 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@thechaddad1609]

The dishes take more than 2-3 minutes...just saying.
