The average person is overweight, on prescription meds, unhappy with their job, carries a lot of stress, and is struggling with their relationships. Knowing these facts, why would we allow average people to shame us or make us feel unsafe for living intentionally and doing well?
In this episode, Lisa shares the one decision she made that instantly improved the quality of her life. She discusses why it can be uncomfortable when everything is going right in your life because we are taught that every time something good happens, it is followed by something terrible. This mindset holds us back and gets us stuck in mediocrity.
You must make above-average decisions to live an above-average life. Moderation won’t do. To live the life you dream of and pray for, you must elevate your decision-making. If you are ready to get out of the middle lane and start doing the most for your health, this episode is for you. Tune in to learn how to find your possibility model, hit your goals, and start living an above-average life.
