5 Reps: How to deal with something unhealthy, a sale, and the paradox with fitness

"The most industry experience per word on the web."

It's been an exciting week with the publication of Unhinged Habits. Despite delivery delays due to the winter storm in the USA and Canada, the book is a #1 New Release in multiple categories across Amazon.

And because the book has been selling so well, Amazon has put it on sale!

Save 23% and buy your copy right away. I have no control over these sales and don't know how long it will last.

Additionally, there has been over 100 articles published including National newspapers, global magazines, and top thought leaders. I can't possible share it all. Instead, I'm saving links and will share a few with you each week.

Most of all, I want to say thank you. This book launch has been a genuine joy.

Here are some quotes from the book:

Money

1

Long-term consistency and stacking habits is a great way to make sure you do stuff like floss your teeth more often. But without intensity (visits to the dentist), you’ll never earn a pearly white smile. Intensity is for gaining. Consistency is for maintaining. You can’t have one without the other. (Pg. 40. Define Your Season chapter)

Health

1

The quality of your life is downstream of the decisions that you make. Decisions made long ago. Decisions made without fully knowing whether they’ll pay off. How they’ll pay off. And, if they do, to what degree. Decisions whose ramifications are possible to appreciate only in retrospect. Or, most often, attributed to luck and fortune. (Pg. 119. Half Full Cup interlude)

2

Expect the unexpected. Build tolerance to life's intolerances. The best way to deal with something unhealthy is to first become as healthy as possible. Make decisions today that your future self will thank you for when shit hits the fan. Because, it will. (Pg. 120. Half Full Cup interlude)

3

There's a paradox with fitness that, while working out is hard, living out of shape is harder. The same is true of mental work. Our brains, like our bodies, need the right kind of resistance to remain sharp and function at their best. (Pg. 93. Choose Your Hard chapter)

Relationships

1

Don’t look for a partner with the same hobbies. They change. Instead, look for somebody who matches your character traits and values. Traits like cleanliness, work ethic, generosity. Values like family, friends, and lifestyle. Relationships are co-dependent. Two unique humans coming together. Forming a team. Ambitions mutually held. (Pg. 174. Find Your Missing Half chapter.)
