Welcome to the ERW podcast, I’m your host, BpB, fellow road warrior, husband of one, father of five, author, and and on a mission to help business travelers eliminate burnout and exceed results.
This episode will be unusual for a few reasons:
It discussed my off road lifeIt’s personal It’s something I’ve never experienced and challenging the six energy habits
Exposed Struggle #1st - I’m getting little to no movement
Word to Myself: Walk Away - I need to increase my walk time every chance I get every single day and no matter what the weather
Exposed Struggle #2 - I’m un-structured and unproductive
Word to Myself: Get a Plan - I need to start with my morning routine to begin my day with structure and then choose one major thing I can accomplish every single day.
Exposed Struggle #3 - I’m a night owl again
Word to Myself: Sleep with your wife! I need to go to bed with my wife no matter what even if it takes me forever to crash. I need to put a “kibosh” on this loose bed time which is never good.
Exposed Struggle #4 - I’m lazy on my eating
Word to Myself: MTHC - I need to continually hydrate more along with eat cleaner and greener
Exposed Struggle #5 - I’m not sleeping
Word to Myself: Don’t make it worse - I need to make the best of the rest I get knowing it will eventually get better
Exposed Struggle #6 - I’m drinking at home like I’m entertaining on the road
Word to Myself: Lay off the Sauce - I need to “be dried out” during the week. No excuses.
Frustration - I can’t move like I’ve always done. I literally cannot move my arm and it’s paralyzing and frustrating to need so much help and struggle on so many simple tasks like taking a shower, getting dressed, really anything that requires to hands
Anxiety - I’ve never had a limb so damaged and affect my life and it’s created this rare emotion in me. I’m anxious around people. I feel trapped in the sling especially at night and it’s revealed a level of anxiousness that is concerning to me.
Depression - I’ve not been one to stay discouraged or depressed for long but with all of the financial and health blows my family and I have suffered this year has put me in a place where I’m fighting this demon. It’s also feeding some of these struggles such as not eating well, not wanting to go for a walk, not caring if I’m structured or productive and definitely drinking too often.
