#22 The importance of working on your mindset when trying to achieve your goals with Joeri Koning

In this podcast episode, I spoke to Joeri Koning who coaches women who are overweight. We spoke about the importance of mastering your mindset when trying to achieve your goals, especially in relation to weight loss and finding your dream career.

It’s important to find the root cause of not being able to achieve your goals. You need to go a layer deeper to see what the underlying cause of the problem is to make a sustainable change in your life.

It’s also important to embrace uncomfortable feelings and emotions when wanting to achieve anything in life. We need to be able to feel and process pain when we want to grow and change into the person that we want to become. We need to learn to accept that pain and failure is part of the process, and we need to remember to not give up when things get hard.

Joeri and I both have worked with clients who have suffered from a burnout. A burnout can be prevented by changing behaviours and thought patterns.

Joeri touched on his personal experience with anxiety and depression and how he got out of it feeling stronger and more motivated to make his business a success.

We also spoke about how women stay in unfulfilling jobs because the pain of their current situation isn’t big enough to make a change. Discomfort can be a valuable teacher, as soon as the pain becomes strong enough people will become more motivated to step out of their comfort zone and make a change in their lives.

When you are feeling stuck and you are unable to achieve your goals it’s important to ask for help from for example a coach who can keep you accountable and motivate you to keep on going.

When working on any goals it’s also vital to work on your own personal development. You need to work on your self-confidence and avoid negative patterns from repeating itself such as procrastination or not daring to get out of your comfort zone.

With the right mindset you can achieve anything you want in life!
