In this thought-provoking episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich speaks with Hal Elrod, author of The Miracle Morning, about how small but intentional changes can lead to life-altering transformations. Hal recounts his journey of overcoming extraordinary adversity—from a near-fatal car accident to battling cancer—and how these experiences shaped his mission to help others. At the heart of his message is the question: “How am I going to turn my life around?” Through mindset strategies like the Five-Minute Rule and the belief that happiness is fleeting but peace is enduring, Hal shares how focusing on what’s possible and refusing to settle for less than your best can change everything. Hal challenges us to rethink how we start our day, asserting that “everything you do is affected by how effectively you start your day.” By shifting your morning habits, you can overcome the limiting belief that you’re not a morning person, stop resisting your life, and set the tone for meaningful change. He explains how settling for mediocrity makes life a struggle and reminds us that living to our full potential is the greatest gift we can give to those we love. If you’ve ever wondered, “What if you could change anything about your life by changing the way you start your day?” this episode offers the inspiration and tools to make it happen. ** Get your copy of the expanded edition of The Miracle Morning here Learn more about Hal here Learn more about Hal's podcast here ** Download your free 1000 Hours Outside tracker here >> https://www.1000hoursoutside.com/trackers Find everything you need to kick off your 1000 Hours Outside Journey here >> https://www.1000hoursoutside.com/blog/allthethings Order of copy of Ginny's newest book, Until the Streetlights Come On here >> https://amzn.to/3RXjBlN Learn more about your ad choices.
