  Life Is Hard. Your Mindset Makes It Harder. 21.08.2026 44min

  Life is hard. But sometimes, the way we think about what we're going through makes it even harder.This week on the Desire To Inspire Podcast, we get into physical fatigue, marathon training, adversity, negativity, faith, losing people you love, friendships, and one question that completely changes how you look at your problems:**If you could put every problem in your life into a bag and trade it for a random person's bag without knowing what was inside would you do it?**Probably not.Everyone is carrying something.The goal isn't to pretend that life isn't difficult. It's learning how to navigate the difficult seasons without allowing them to completely derail you.We also somehow start the episode with Freddy nearly BURNING DOWN HIS BRAND-NEW HOUSE after only two weeks of living there. 😂This episode is a reminder that you can acknowledge that life is hard without becoming a victim of it.Because you can't be the victim and the victor at the same time.Keep moving forward. Keep challenging yourself. Keep people around you who make you better.And as always...Have the Desire To Inspire.SUBSCRIBE for weekly conversations about mindset, physical health, mental health, discipline, personal growth, endurance, relationships, and building a life you're proud of.#DesireToInspire #Mindset #PersonalGrowth #Motivation #Discipline0:26 - New Studio1:16 - Fred Almost Burns The New House Down14:14 - Training Fatigue21:54 - Would You Trade Your Problems For Someone Else’s?29:16 - Living For The World36:03 - We All Need To Be ChallengedPlease visit our website to get more information: https://desiretooinspire.com/ ✅ Important Affiliate Links to Follow🔗 To Support 1st Phorm & DTI shop products here: https://1stphorm.com/?a_aid=DTI🔗To get a pair of Optic Nerve sunglasses for 20% off use this link and code DTI at checkout: https://www.opticnerve.com/🔗 To purchase Athletic Brewing Company products follow this link & use code DYLAN20 at checkout for 50% off your first purchase: https://athleticbrewing.com/🔗 To purchase Honey Stinger products for premium performance nutrition, click here: https://honeystinger.com/?r=v8v1k&utm_campaign=bc&utm_source=bc_dylan-thacker_v8v1k&utm_medium=referral🔔𝐃𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐛𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐮𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬.https://www.youtube.com/@dtiritenau/?sub_confirmation=1 🔗 Stay Connected With Us.Instagram (Desire Too Inspire Rite Nau): https://www.instagram.com/dtiritenau/Instagram (Freddy Ritenauer): https://www.instagram.com/rite_nau/ Instagram (Dylan Thacker): https://www.instagram.com/itsdthack/ TikTok (thedtipodcast): https://www.tiktok.com/@thedtipodcastTikTok (Desire Too Inspire): https://www.tiktok.com/@_desiretooinspireTwitter (X) (Freddy Ritenauer): https://x.com/DTIRiteNauTwitter (X) (Dylan Thacker): https://x.com/ItsDThackWebsite: https://desiretooinspire.com/ 📩 For business inquiries: [email protected] =============================🎬Suggested videos for you:▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kP4m-acfXb4 ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qvaY8hhH1w ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y70vBfCqWbU ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqTTR2Pdeow ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDsAlj79qQk ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGk1UljkHzQ ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiIoAmcvrtA ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBpg5O7NIlA ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5NMHLZ3-MQ ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hEqnm4wjdU
