No, people have all kinds of stories about lifestyle change being hard. It can be challenging, no doubt, particularly at the stage where you are making the initial change, which we refer to as The Resolve Phase.  But you need to understand that your approach is everything, and if you believe it’s hard, it’s hard. So you will need to learn how to change your story.  Every obstacle is a doorway to another aspect of the High Performance Lifestyle; this is not called a high-performance diet or fitness routine. It’s a high-performance “lifestyle” that’s healthy! There are 3 levels of lifestyle optimization, and you don’t want to start at level three because you won’t be successful at that level, and that’s what most people do.  Understanding how habits are built is crucial, starting with tiny patterns and micro-steps that eventually grow into full-blown ways of life!   A lifestyle change is not a one-and-done deal, as it’s often referred to; it’s ongoing, for starters. Plus, there are levels of adaptation, followed by improvement and optimization.  We take you through all three—the resolve, the evolve, and the achieve phases.  Before you live a high-performance lifestyle, you have to know what a Performance Lifestyle is, and before you can do that, you have to know what’s healthy and how to live healthy in any situation.  Before you can do that, though, you have to learn how to be free to live, no longer weighed down by the past you cannot change or anxious about the future you have yet to live.    But before you’ll even do that well, you’ve got to have the energy to change and improve, and that’s why we start with learning how to manage your energy like a pro.  Watch what happens when you start with a blueprint, so you know where you’re going, and change is not vague or happenstance.
