Control your Mind #motivation #kindness

Hello everyone, I'm the Fitness Kid and you are watching a motivational quote of the day. In this series I talk about a quote, analyze it, and at the end I'll give you a key takeaway about something from the quote you can use to change and improve your daily life. The quote for today is as follows. If you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired. From George S. Patton. So George Patton was an American general during World War II. If you don't know, he was renowned for his just amazing skills in the battlefield. He won great battles. He, you know, he survived throughout all of World War II, you know, five years of constant, near constant battle, and eventually died in a car crash. But he was renowned as one of the toughest men in the military, in the armed forces, and will always be remembered as an American hero. So his quote is talking about what that you never, you need to never let your mind, or you need to let your mind run the body and never the other way around. Because the body, what he's saying, physically you're always, you're never going to want to really do something hard that pushes you outside of your comfort zone. Because your body just wants to feel nice, and it wants to feel safe, and it wants to eat junk food. It wants to lie on a couch and watch TV. It's the thing that, it's the thing that wants, that always wants to procrastinate. But your mind, if you train your mind, you know, if you train your mind every day to always be extremely disciplined, your body will follow suit. So you just need to train your mind to be disciplined to do whatever you want to do. So if you really, let's say, I don't know, you want to start a business, then you need to train your mind to go research how to do your business on your computer for an hour. Let's say you want to start a dropshipping business. You have to go research dropshipping and out for an hour for every one, every day for a month, just to learn all about dropshipping. So you're going to do that, but your body doesn't want to do that. Your body, when it goes on computer, is going to want to type in whatever game you like or whatever Netflix series you want to like, and it's going to watch, to binge watch that show. It's going to want to play that game. But your mind needs to say, okay, no, go back and read an article about dropshipping. So that's just an example, but what you need to do is always remember that your mind is in control and you need to let your mind run your body, not the other way around. So for a key takeaway for today, if there's something that you know you're procrastinating on, that you know you're letting your body run things, just make sure, make a conscious effort not to let your body run things, to switch that around to let your mind run things. And eventually it'll get easier and easier as you get more and more disciplined. So thank you so much for watching this video. You can buy my merch, links for that are in the description.
