The secret to your life is hidden in your daily routine.

In this episode, Dr. Andrew Fix unpacks how habits create the foundation for who you become and where you end up. Success rarely comes from one big breakthrough; it’s the result of small, consistent actions that compound over time. Every decision—what you eat, how you move, how you spend your time—quietly shapes your future self long before you realize it.

He reframes goal setting as the starting line, not the finish. Setting intentions gives direction, but it’s your habits that move you forward. The real question is whether your daily routine reflects the goals you claim to care about. If your actions don’t match your ambitions, something needs to shift.

Your priorities are revealed in two places: your calendar and your bank account. Where you invest your time and money tells the truth about what matters most. This episode challenges you to look closer, make adjustments, and build a routine that actually leads you toward the future you want.

The post 197. The Secret to Your Future Self appeared first on Physio Room.

“Most people are over saving and under living.” says Bill Perkins.

Have you ever stopped to think about how you’re spending your time and money? Are you saving up for that dream vacation or big purchase, thinking that it will bring you ultimate fulfillment? In this episode of “The Code,” Dr. Andrew Fix explores the concept of living a fulfilling life by optimizing our health, wealth, and time.

Inspired by a podcast interview with Bill Perkins, a successful hedge fund manager and author of the book “Die with Zero,” Dr. Fix delves into the idea of net fulfillment. It’s not about living the longest life or accumulating the most wealth, but rather about living a life that is truly fulfilling. Perkins challenges the conventional notion of saving money for later in life, arguing that we often end up over-saving and under-living.

Dr. Fix reflects on the importance of seizing the present moment and making the most of the time we have. He shares a personal experience where he and his wife decided to be spontaneous and take a trip to Mount Evans, only to be met with a few unexpected hiccups in their ideal travel plans. Instead of being disappointed, they embraced the unexpected and made the best of their day by exploring a different route and enjoying the charm of a nearby town.

While financial stability is important, it’s the moments we create and the time we spend with loved ones that truly bring us fulfillment. If you are over-saving and under-living you will find inspiration in this episode!

Key Takeaways:

• Take advantage of the time you have with the people in your life and prioritize experiences and memories.

• Money is a tool that can enhance happiness when used for experiences

• Time is a finite resource that cannot be manufactured, so it should be used wisely.

• It’s important to be spontaneous and seize opportunities for new experiences and adventures.

• Optimizing life for maximum fulfillment involves finding a balance between health, wealth, and time.

Quotes:

• “People need to start optimizing their life sooner…a lot of people are saving money, they’re saving for experiences and memories later in life that when they actually get there, you’re too old to do them.” (03:13 | Dr. Fix)

• “All of us are going to want more money, right? We could all earn more. We could all benefit from having a little bit more money. But at a certain point, the finances are not really going to drive happiness, right? Unless you’re using those finances for experiences, for time, for spending time with the people doing things that you’re going to remember, right? Having more money in the bank doesn’t necessarily make you more happy past a certain point, because that money really is like a tool, right? It’s the vehicle that’s helping you get to where you want to go. And we all want more of it, but there’s some things we can’t. We can’t just manufacture. We can’t manufacture more time. So we need to use it to the best of our abilities and use it wisely.” (11:59 | Dr. Fix)

The post 83. A Dose of Spontaneity appeared first on Physio Room.

Key Takeaways

• Life is about counterbalancing.

• No one can be an island. You need good mentors around you

• Our thoughts are often wrong due to outdated limiting beliefs.

“We do things based on feeling and that’s a really horrible way to live life because most of the time we actually do a lot of things that we feel like doing that are not in our best interest,” shares Shaun Cook, owner of Crucible Strength, NASM performance and enhancement specialist, USA Powerlifting competitor, and certified nutrition coach. Shaun has been involved in training for almost 20 years and has learned quite a few lessons along his career. Today, he joins host Dr. Andrew Fix to talk about the sport of life made simple.

People often make life more complicated than it needs to be. They believe all sorts of lies from limiting beliefs created in childhood to the popular myth of needing to create a balanced life. Instead of choosing their actions through careful consideration, most people act based purely on feelings. It would be much simpler if people took the time to sit with themselves and really figure out their purpose. Without being very clear on their purpose, people can quickly become distracted and get in their own way.

Success requires intentionality, and intentionality comes from knowing your purpose. Once you know your purpose, it will be easier to stay motivated, organize your priorities, and shut out limiting beliefs and distractions.

Quotes

• “You can’t be an island. That’s one of the big things is you need good people, good mentors around you.” (25:58-26:05 | Shaun)

• “It’s so much easier to see someone else’s problems than it is your own.” (42:30-42:33 | Shaun)

• “We do things based on feeling and that’s a really horrible way to live life because most of the time we actually do a lot of things that we feel like doing that are not in our best interest.” (44:31-44:43 | Shaun)

• “A lot of our thoughts are primed the wrong way. They’re lying to us. Once you can crack that, you unlock a lot of potential in what you can do.” (50:21-50:31 | Shaun)

• “What a lot of people are lacking is intentionality. And intentionality comes from having a purpose.” (1:16:34-1:16:41 | Shaun)
