189. Shifting Your Locus of Control

August 11, 2023

If you are having a hard time sticking with a health and fitness routine, then you might want to have a look at your locus of control.


Locus of control refers to where you believe your control lies – either outside of you or within you.


People who have a strong external locus of control tend to have a very hard time sticking to a plan and accomplishing anything.


On the other hand, people with a strong internal locus of control have an easier time sticking to a plan and are more successful in all areas of their lives.


Today I’ll explain what locus of control is and how you can begin shifting your locus of control so you can get better results and live a healthier life.
