If you've ever tried your absolute hardest at something, whether it's getting your kid to sleep or hitting a fitness goal, and still failed, you probably blamed yourself. Stop right there. You are not the exception to the rule. You are not doomed to failure.

On this episode of the Fit Parent podcast, Amy and I dissect the most vulnerable question every successful person has to answer: When do you stop persevering and start pivoting?

From the trenches of life, we break down the magic metric that determines your next move: If you did the absolute best you are capable of doing for an extended period, and the needle didn't move... you need a new map, not more motivation.

If you’re burnt out, beating yourself up, and ready to quit something you still desperately want, this episode is your permission slip to change the game. Stop enduring the hard. Start evolving.

Here are the most important takeaways from this episode:

• Why most people bail on their fitness goals happens between weeks four and seven

• Why you need hard commitment to the process and a specific timeline, which takes quitting off the table when the pain hits

• How to definitively know if your plan is the problem

• The importance of realistic expectations and building a reasonable plan for the chaos

• Why finding the right strategies is essential for overcoming obstacles

You are not broken, but your strategy might be. If you've been grinding and wondering why you failed, this episode is your answer. It’s what you need to stop beating yourself up and start changing the game. Hit that play button, and let's figure out your next, better move. Stop enduring the hard. Start evolving.
