I tell people, you know, if you're driving a newer car today, right? You love it when, you know, a car comes too close to you and your thing beeps. You love it when the trunk is open and ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Because it's telling you that, hey, pay attention to this. So Frankie has been developing for hundreds of millions of years. So love your Frankie. Yes. Okay.

So love your Frankie. Yes. Okay.

But you have to control Frankie versus Frankie controlling you. Now, the neurochemistry of fear is actually required in a flow state. Yes. Most people don't know this, but we actually want most flow states start in a state of stress, worry, fear, anxiety. When you're at the Olympics, oh my God, am I going to run well today? Did I sleep enough? Did I eat the right food? Is it the right time?

Is it too early in the day, too late in the day? I wonder what Michael will do. I wonder what Joey will do. So we're comparing and then Frankie goes off, you know, but then boom, because of training, we use that fuel. We focus on that finish line. We focus on what we have practiced. And then we don't have to think about it because we are now unconsciously competent. We don't.

And if we trained right, then we get into this flow state where it's effortless. There's effort, but it's not work. So whether it's earning money, getting healthy, we focus on the right habits first. And through consistency, we add intensity and complexity. And so I would prefer somebody telling me, John, I walked one minute a day for 100 days. I'm ready to move.

Or somebody saying, you know, I walked 15 minutes on Monday. I couldn't Tuesday and Wednesday. You know, I walked two hours on Sunday. I'm really sore, so I'm going to take off. No, it's too inconsistent. Whatever it is that we do consistently, this is so powerful. Whatever it is that we do consistently, our brain automates. Yes. That's called automaticity.

And automaticity is effortless to the human brain, whereas consistency initially is effort more.

So this serves two purposes for me. Let's say this is my life, right? I have no idea how much sand I have left. this is the life I've lived.
