Let me start with something simple—but uncomfortable.

Most people don’t fail at their fitness goals because they chose the wrong workout.
They fail because their workouts were optional.

Not bad workouts.
Not ineffective workouts.
Just… optional.

And today I want to talk about one of the most underrated, boring-sounding, but powerful behaviors you can adopt if you want consistency, results, and long-term success:

Prebooking and scheduling your workouts.

Not when you “feel like it.”
Not when the day goes perfectly.
But ahead of time, the same way you’d schedule:

• A work meeting
  
  
  
• A doctor’s appointment
  
  
  
• Picking up your kids
  
  
  

Because once something is scheduled…
It stops being a suggestion and starts becoming a priority.

Let’s talk about laziness.

Because almost everyone listening has said this at some point:

“I know what I should do [Blank]… I just don’t do it.”

And the story we tell ourselves is:
“I’m lazy.”
“I lack motivation.”
“I’m just not disciplined like those people.”

But here’s the reframe I want to offer you today:

What if laziness isn’t a character flaw at all?
What if it’s just a thinking habit—paired with a bad system?

Because when you actually look closely at people who seem “immune” to laziness…
They’re not more motivated than you.
They’re not grinding off sheer willpower.

They’ve just built their lives so that action is the default.

And today, I want to show you how to do the same.

Today’s episode is not just a pep talk — it’s a guided journaling ritual that you can repeat daily, weekly, or even just on the weekends to reset your nervous system, reflect on what matters, and build the kind of mindset that creates a long, happy, healthy life.

I call this the 3G Journal Ritual.
Gratitude. Grit. Growth.

Let’s dive in.
