    • He shares some items from his recent camping trip. (8:00)
    • Vinnie is now planning a trip to the Grand Canyon next year.
    • He also emphasizes the need for caution and experience when going mountaineering. (10:15)
      • And you will learn a bit about the term "sherpa".
  • Anna brings up James Clear's book, "Atomic Habits". (17:30)
    • Speaking of habits, this segues to recipes and being a creature of habit in how we eat as well.
    • Establishing a habit can take a range of time, from 60 days to 8 months or even forever. (30:00)

  • Vinnie talks about consistency. (36:45)
    • He uses rowing as a goal; he doesn't just want to row on his Concept 2 rower, he's interested in learning from the local rowing club.
    • It makes him wonder about people who aren't interested in learning.
  • This leads to a discussion about people who call Vinnie and express the frustration of "it was working, now it's not." (46:00)
    • Many times people's habits get disrupted because support at home is limited.
    • Or people aren't fully into it like they think, or they try to "jimmy the system", which doesn't work, especially long-term.
      • He gives WW as an example.
  • Anna talks more about how to stay on track even if you don't have a lot of support at home. (53:00)
