Sports Motivation Podcast By I'm Not You | Mindset | Strategies | Habits | Psychology | Athlete Development | Host Niyi Sobo

Over the next 2 weeks, I am going to be taking you through a Reality Boot Camp...too many people cower under the weight of reality. And by "reality" I mean this: what is true for you, may be a little difficult to deal with or understand. We all have difficult areas of our life and they're not the way we want them to be; it's not fun. But it's those who can look at these results in the face, stare them down, break them down, and then create new plans to overcome... these are the winners. This is what I will be showing you how to do over the next 8 episodes. Back to back episodes. Tuesday through Friday. Enjoy.

If you still grocery shop at the store, you slippin'. This app (of which there are several others of the same type) saved me and my wife several hours a week. 

This book I keep in almost every room of my house..it's that powerful. Check out the excerpt I break down. Listen on the Sports Motivation Podcast.

In this episode, I show you the solution to all of these mistakes... yes, ALL of these mistakes. The Blueprint. For the first time ever, I am making the time management system that I created, available to the public. Early in my entrepreneurial career, I realized I needed a customized solution to fit the needs of a true BOSS. The reality was that these little fuzzy-bear-paw-print-journals didn't take into consideration the realities of managing a company, a family, nor provide necessary support for the vision I had. So I created my own. If you're an Entrepreneur or a Committed athlete, this is the missing tool that is going to take your results to the next level.

How much time do you think goes into planing for a football game? A Basketball game? How much time do you spend getting ready and picking out your clothes? So why is it that most people spend no time planning out their week? Most don't have the standard, and they surely don't have a system, or method for doing it. In this episode, I address the standard and the strategy. 

When people are stressed, we tend to eat more, sleep more and avoid things that are difficult. I suggest you try the opposite...in times of crisis or stress, try to avoid vices. I explain more in today's episode, so listen on the sports motivation podcast.

This song makes me emotional....Andre 3000's verse is crazy, and shows why he is a legend. 

This simple distinction will give you much needed clarity, and will help you to take advantage of your time in a more efficient way. 

Life is complex. You don't have the luxury of just focusing on ONE area...we have to be strategic, calculated and well balanced in our approach to life. Listen to today's episode to find out how to avoid the mistake of tunnel vision, and to establish a pattern of dominating in several areas at once. It's possible, but it takes a certain strategy.   

Put your phone to bed at night (or even in its own room), it will change your life. Tune in to the sports motivation podcast, link in my IG bio.

Discipline....the simple act of doing what you know you have to. Not very sexy, but is at the cornerstone of any lasting result. Check out the clip I break down from a classic Napoleon Hill book, "How to Raise Your Own Salary" where he details its importance. 

You don't have as much time as you think you have. You move entirely too slow, and have way too much patience. You don't need more time; you need more urgency. Listen up to learn how to create necessary urgency every day.

If you are bored, burned out, or lack intensity on the day-to-day, this is for you. Chances are, you're making the mistake of having too much redundancy, without establishing clear and exciting outcomes on a daily basis. Check out todays episode to figure out how to remedy this mistake.

Before TVs and microwaves, Americans used to do this a lot more often.....Now it's uncommon. What habit am I talking about? Eating meals together at the table. Listen on the Sports Motivation Podcast!

Big Sean has always been a prime example of the "I'm Not You" mindset, and this song explains how...

Your weak ego is keeping you from growing....instead of looking at mistakes and understanding the root causes, you ignore them. This is what the foolish and weak do...not us. 

Be wary of oversimplified advice and people telling you, "just be grateful" and you'll achieve success...sounds dumb right? You'd be surprised at how many of us get seduced by this nonsense. In this episode I show you the mistake so many make, and what you need to do instead.

Understanding yourself is key. To understand yourself, you need to understand your past. To understand your past, you need to explore how you were raised. To know how you were raised, you need to think about your parents/guardians, and what beliefs you formed as you grew up. Reading books on parenting (even if you don't have kids) helps you understand yourself on a deeper level, and settle a lot of the inner conflict. 

Reading Ralph Waldo Emerson is a mental workout...but it will get you in shape. Listen to this very important lesson I break down from this classic philosopher. Listen, on the Sports Motivation Podcast
