Meet Brody, a young social media guru and party enthusiast.
He’s jacked, charismatic, and oozes youthful style and confidence.
But would you turn to Brody for advice on getting someone over 40 into shape, especially with a challenging career and growing family?
Probably not. Because “skin in the game” is crucial.
It separates wisdom from knowledge. It’s living and experiencing life’s very real challenges, not just learning about them on social media or asking ChatGPT.
And I’m not hating on Brody; it’s just recognizing the stages of life we all go through. I was once the same way, thinking I ‘knew everything’ about life and especially diet and exercises.
But as we grow, our perspective changes.
When you’re young, life is like a room full of mirrors, all reflecting YOU – your goals, your needs, your immediate concerns.
But as you grow and experience life, those mirrors become windows, providing a view of a landscape that’s full of responsibility and obligation and “you” is just a small part of a much bigger picture.
So, cheers to Brody and the journey that awaits him.
May he learn to balance his passions and obligations with finesse.
– Coach Bryan
