An interesting glimpse of why I struggle at running, and how it might relate to you if you’re struggling in your business. On this episode Russell talks about running with Collette on his family reunion and realizing why he has always hated running. He relates hating running to the way other people hate running a business, and gives some helpful advice about how to enjoy the journey. Here are some of the awesome tidbits to listen for in today’s episode: What made Russell realize the reason he hated running. How running is similar to running a business and why “looking at your feet” is the reason you aren’t enjoying it. And why you have to train yourself to look up to be able to enjoy the journey of running a business. So listen here to find out why you need to stop looking at your feet while you run, just like Russell. ---Transcript--- Hey everybody, this is Russell Brunson. Welcome back to the Marketing Secrets podcast. I am so excited to have you here today. Today I am going to be talking about why I hate running, what that may have to do with you if you’re struggling in your business. Alright so I hope, first off, that you are all doing amazing today. I am at the office preparing for a flight tomorrow. I’m actually heading out to Atlanta to speak at a big event with Tony Robbins, which is kind of cool. I was going to officially retire from speaking this year, but then Tony is like, “Hey, do you want to come speak in front of 6,000 people?” and I’m like, “You know what, the answer is always yes.” So I’m going there and it’s going to be really fun. And I’m doing a whole new presentation, which means I have been killing myself for the last day and a half trying to create a whole new presentation, because I only have 60 minutes, and I’m selling a $500 One Funnel Away Challenge kit, which is something different than I’ve ever sold before. I usually sell $3,000 from stage. So I have less time, a lower ticket price, but I’m doing it because I’m testing my material. If you’ve been listening along for a while, I’m testing this presentation because of the speaker team we’ve been building. We’re really struggling getting people to allow them to come speak for 90 minutes and sell a $3,000 product. Most of them are like, “We want an hour long presentation and we want you to sell a $500 product.’ So speaking at this event, besides speaking at a Tony event with $6000 people, which is exciting anyway, it’s forcing me to create this presentation that then the speaker team can use, as long as the presentation goes well. So it’s going to be fun. I’m excited to see how it all goes. So hopefully it works, so wish me luck. But I digress, today I want to talk to you about something else actually. Basically what I want to talk to you guys about is, last week we had our family reunion up at Bear Lake. I was going to say Bear Lake, Idaho, but it’s on the Utah/Idaho border, so it’s actually Bear Lake, Utah. I was with my family and we had a great time. But what’s interesting is, my wife and I were like, ‘This family vacation we’re going to be healthy and we’re going to do all these things.” And it’s funny because each night a different family member has the dinner and then everyone makes a dessert, and we’re like, uh. So every year I go and gain like 15 pounds and I come home and it’s like a month and a half to lose all the weight I gained on the family reunion. So this year I’m like, “I’m going to be healthy.” So day one we were super healthy. They had pizza and I was like, ‘I’m not eating pizza. I’m just going to eat salad.” Which was sad because the pizza looked so good. But I just had salad, didn’t have dessert. Then day two, the next morning, we woke up and Collette and I went running, which was awesome, I’m going to talk about that in a minute. So we went running and the next morning I was sore, and then they had dessert and it was so good, and they dinner and dessert, and by the end of the week I didn’t make it to our goal at all, but we had
