Episode 590: Daily Habits That Can Transform Your Life in Six Months

0:01Hi, guys. It's Tony Robbins. You're listening to Habits and Hustle. Crush it. Before we get into today's episode, I have a quick question. Do you ever hit 3 p.m. and feel like your brain's just done? That afternoon crash used to be really real for me. My focus would completely disappear. Everything felt harder, and I'd wonder how I was supposed to get through the rest of the day. I tried pretty much everything for energy and focus, and I'm very skeptical of just taking supplements that promise too much. But Magic Mind is one of the very few things I genuinely notice when I don't take it. It's a two-ounce shot that I take in the morning, and I literally feel sharper, more focused, and much less likely to hit that afternoon wall, which matters when I'm juggling podcasts, the training, the kids, and everything else.

0:47It contains lion's mane, ashwagandha, turmeric, matcha, and it's non-encapsulated to improve absorption. and every batch is also third-party tested for purity and potency. And maybe my favorite part is it literally just takes two seconds. I'm not doing like a 15-step morning wellness routine because I don't have the time or the patience.

1:44All right, I want to talk about something today on this solo episode, And that is the power of hope and feeling that we all can change our lives just by doing one thing or one small thing differently. And this is the power of six months. Six months from now, you can be living a completely different life. You can be in a different relationship. You can have a different job. You can have a different body. You can have a different group of friends. You could be living in a different state. I mean, literally doing one thing different creates a chain reaction that changed the trajectory of where your life goes.

2:23It's kind of like sliding doors in a way. Like if you went into that door versus that door, this door versus that door, what can change? I always think about that. I love that movie because of the message behind it, right? Like life is literally, it's so delicate, right? Fragile. You just you you yin instead of yang and your life takes on a whole different trajectory, which, you know, what I like about this idea, though, is that we actually have a lot of control. Like some things we don't we have no control over, like which door sometimes what subway door we go into. But a lot of the things that we do have control over, that we have we have agency over, we can make a difference of those things.

3:03You know, I think a lot of times we overestimate what we can accomplish in a week, but we underestimate how much we can accomplish in six months. There's a big gap between that one week and six months, right? We have to kind of get really good and get comfortable and cognizant of the boring middle, right? That's where people really kind of like, that's where we lose people, right? The boring middle. But the reality is like anything worth having, any goal that you're trying to get to, again, no matter what it is, that perfect body or that great relationship, nothing is perfect and nothing is easy all the time.

3:44There's going to be ebbs and flows. There's going to be ups and downs. There's going to be stagnations. There's going to be plateaus. That is life, no matter how good or how stressful or whatever. And I think that once we understand that to be the facts, we can do a lot with that. I think six months of consistency is actually a massive amount of time. So what we have to ask ourselves is, what are we doing today to get to what we want to get to tomorrow or in six months from now? What are the habits? What does our days look like? So if you want to have a super strong body, what are you doing today about it?

4:29People say to me all the time, like, oh, I wish I was as fit as you. Okay, well, why are you wishing? It's not that I don't wish it. I actually work for it every single day. Nothing comes easy to me. Trust me, I have to work for everything. So if you want to be fit, guess what you need to do? What are the habits that people who are fit do day in and day out? So you ask yourself, are you sleeping enough? Are you exercising daily? Are you eating properly? Are you walking your 10 ,000 steps? I can go on and on and on. So my point is, if that is a goal, six months from today, your body, your body composition can make an exorbitant amount of changes based on those habits.

5:21If you want to change your career, what are you doing now today to make that happen? Are you networking with the right people? Are you making calls? Are you checking, you know, LinkedIn? Are you contacting people on LinkedIn who are in the field that you want to be in? Are you putting yourself in places where that can happen? Are you working on it? Quite frankly, are you working on it? You don't want to be in the relationship you want. Like I can go on and on, right? Like you don't like the relationship you're in? All right. Well, what are you doing to make it better? It's with everything in life, right?

6:00Like I think that we a lot of times are our worst enemies. We make ourselves stuck. We feel overwhelmed or we feel like we don't have the agency and that life happens to us. But that is a mindset, right? You got to reverse that. Life happens by what you do day to day. And that's why I talk about the habits and hustle. Because I think the reason why I called this podcast Habits and Hustle is because I truly believe in my core that we do have the agency by what we do and how we do it to really achieve what we want. And the onus is on us. We are the CEO of our own lives. And we have to take onus for how our lives happen.

6:49We have to take responsibility. I think one of the greatest life lessons I've ever got was that you can't blame anybody for anything. You've got to take, even when you're the best piece of advice I was ever given was just take responsibility. You know, Like don't pass the buck, even if it wasn't your fault. A lot of times it's easier just to take the responsibility and not, you know, maybe you could have done something different and then move on. Right. I just think it's a much easier way to live your life. You know, like I just think we have to really kind of internalize the idea that one decision can create a completely different chain of events.

7:27I can't even express that enough. I have requests from everybody who's listening or watching. I want everyone to think of one thing that they would want to improve. It can be anything. It can be your fitness level. It can be your finances. It can be the doom scrolling on your phone. It can be really improving your confidence, whatever it is. and work on one thing that you can improve from today and mark your calendar that in six months, you're gonna look again. What are you gonna do today, tomorrow, the next day, this week, next week, the following week to change that one thing? Pick what it is and then do the steps necessary to get there.

8:16And then when you look in six months, I promise you, you're going to see an improvement. It may not be 100%, but it will definitely be more than what you have today. So it may not be 100%, but it's definitely gonna be more than you are today. Because here's the reality. No matter what, six months is going to be, is coming, right? Whether you do anything different or not, that six months is going to be around the corner, right so it make up your mind are you going to do things differently to show up to show up are you going to show up differently for that six month in that six months so you are in a different place or are you going to be stagnant and stay the same that's really the question it's very simple so that's what i want to do i want to leave people with an actionable thing that they can do pick one small thing or one thing and work on that one thing to make a difference in six months and ask someone, look at something, chat GPT at what are the habits, what does my day-to-day look like to make those differences and then take agency and make those difference.

9:24Because remember, in six months from today, six months is going to be here no matter what. So either you are proactive or you're stagnant and that really becomes a decision that you make. So that's what I have to say for myself today. And I hope that inspired somebody to take action and do something different. And let me know how it goes in the comments. I'll be looking.
