Discipline Can Be A Disguise

[00:00:00]I was 16 years old bench pressing 300 pounds and I just was so angry at him. I probably would have killed him. I worked out 555 times last year. You're [ __ ] amazing. Yeah, I got bigger, I got stronger. You know what? All I did is exhaust myself. I realized I was still operating in that scarcity mindset. It used to signify safety. That was because our parents were alcoholics. When they did come home drunk, they'd beat us.

[00:00:28]What finally got me kicked out of my parents' house was I called my stepdad out. I was 16 years old bench pressing 300 pounds and I just was so angry at him for keeping me down and beating me when I needed love and stages what and I looked at him and said, "You and me go outside now."

[00:00:45]He goes, "Get the hell out of my house."

[00:00:46]So today like I woke up, I had entertaining people over doing podcast but then I said, "I'm going to miss the day of working out." And normal prior to this healing I would be anxious.

[00:00:58]And now I'm like, "No, I'm good. I'm okay."
