It's one thing to study

0:03

war. It's

0:06

another thing to live

0:08

a warrior's life. Hey

0:11

everybody, welcome back to the Primal Potential podcast.

0:14

I am Elizabeth Benton. This

0:16

is our Consistency 365 series.

0:20

Many episodes that air between our full length Monday and

0:22

Saturday episodes to help you slow down, snap

0:25

out of autopilot, and seize an opportunity

0:27

that exists for you today to make

0:29

your life and your goals just a

0:31

little bit better, a little bit closer.

0:34

This is an old

0:37

saying that I think

0:39

we can take so much from and

0:41

use so richly. It's not meant for

0:43

us to just nod in agreement, but

0:46

rather to say, hey, what

0:48

do we do with this? It's one thing to

0:50

study war. It's another thing

0:52

to live a warrior's life.

0:55

And no doubt about it, a

0:57

lot of people are struggling because

0:59

they are studying war, so to

1:01

speak, and not living a warrior's

1:03

life. They are studying health

1:05

and not living a healthy life. They

1:08

are studying fitness and not practicing fitness,

1:10

and it's two very

1:12

different things. It's

1:15

almost like we check the box of action

1:17

any time we learn, thinking

1:20

that we've done something. But

1:24

doing something is not the same

1:26

thing as creating a result, as

1:29

choosing change. So,

1:33

plug in what it is that you are

1:35

giving your attention to. Plug in what it

1:38

is that you are wanting to shift in

1:40

your life. It's one

1:42

thing to study nutrition and

1:45

another thing to make nutritious choices.

1:49

What is it for you? It's one

1:52

thing to study communication.

1:54

It's another thing to be

1:56

a good communicator. It's

2:01

one thing to study

2:04

Jesus and

2:06

another thing to walk

2:09

like Jesus. What

2:11

is it for you? It's probably multiple things.

2:15

So, what is one thing

2:17

that you today are willing to do,

2:20

to be, to choose? How

2:24

can you bridge this gap today between

2:28

studying war and living a

2:30

warrior's life? What

2:32

does that look like for you today? Don't

2:37

just think about it. Write

2:39

it down, brainstorm your ideas, and

2:41

then commit to one or two

2:44

or five. Commit. Don't

2:46

just think about it. This is

2:49

a big shift can

2:51

happen if instead of

2:53

passively consuming content, you

2:55

actively apply

2:58

it to your behavior. It's

3:02

very easy when we're talking podcasts

3:04

or books to just passively consume

3:06

it, but then we

3:08

are studying the warrior's life instead of

3:10

living as a warrior. So,

3:13

what will that shift look

3:15

like for you today?
