00:00:00.239 --> 00:00:02.399
Back to Night Shift with Justin S.
00:00:02.560 --> 00:00:03.040
King.
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:04.959
Tonight I want to share a quote.
00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:19.600
I remember reading this quite a number of years ago, and this is from Tim Ferriss who just posted it again today, and it says, For most of us, the how-to books on our shelves represent a growing to-do list, not advice we've followed.
00:00:19.839 --> 00:00:29.760
I've been asked at different times for an identical favor, an index card with bulletproof instructions on losing abdominal fat.
00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:33.600
Each person made it clear, just tell me exactly what to do and I'll do it.
00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:41.359
I gave them all the necessary tactical advice on one three by five card, knowing in advance what the outcome would be.
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:44.640
The success rate was an impressive 0%.
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:47.759
People suck at following advice.
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:51.439
Even the most affected people in the world are terrible at it.
00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:52.719
There are two reasons.
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:56.560
One, most people have an insufficient reason for action.
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:58.640
The pain isn't painful enough.
00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:01.119
It's a nice to have, not a must-have.
00:01:01.359 --> 00:01:07.120
And two, there are no reminders, no consistent tracking, no awareness, no behavioral change.
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:16.879
Consistent tracking, even if you have no knowledge of fat loss or exercise, will often be advice from world-class trainers.
00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:25.680
This concept can be applied to not only fat loss, but any new habit you want to develop, such as improving your sleep, creating an evening routine.
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:35.280
Keys to get leverage on yourself, creating a pain that is painful enough or a big enough reason to get into action.
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:41.200
And two, creating a consistent reminder or a tracker always there.
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:48.239
So for tonight's night shift, take a look at these two things in relation to your evening routine and to sleep.
00:01:56.239 --> 00:02:01.200
Two, can you track these things consistently that will to awareness?
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:03.519
That's it for tonight's episode of Night Shift.
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:04.560
My name is Justin S.
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:05.120

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:05.519
Good night.
