Embetterment

Welcome to Fit Talk Fridays. In this episode, I talk about what you can expect every Friday in the newest series as part of Embetterment: a discussion around all things, health, wellness, & fitness. Join me as we chat about reaching your health and fitness goals.

In this episode, I talk about living just outside your comfort zone as a path for personal growth. In many ways, the life we want is just outside our comfort zone, if we can embrace the fear and anxiety to get there. The fear and anxiousness of discomfort will always be present, but once we learn to channel our fear into energy, we can take small, incremental steps outside our comfort zone to help us grow and develop a better life.

In this episode, I talk through two different mental models: a Sprinter's Mindset vs a Marathoner's Mindset, the difference between the two, and where it may make sense to deploy one mental model versus another. Each approach has its benefits and shortcomings, and I'll delve into each one on today's episode.

In this episode, I discuss how you can go faster (and further) in life by surrounding yourself with faster people. Our environment can often dictate how fast and how far we can go, and it's important to assess our environment and how it may be limiting us. I discuss the lessons I learned in my last obstacle course race at Fenway Park in 2022 on how to go faster and go further by surrounding yourself with faster people.

Welcome to Embetterment. I'm your host, Chris Harrington, and I'm really excited to have you as part of the Embetterment series.
