CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

By: Elizabeth Benton
  • Summary

  • Why are we so stressed & overwhelmed? Why do we have clear & compelling goals but fail to reach them? How can we want to change so desperately yet make choices that keep us from that change? Because we keep focusing on the habits we want instead of building the skill of consistency that allows us to achieve them. Consistency is a skill. It's a superpower. It isn't one-size-fits all. It unlocks any door and makes every goal achievable. A more effective, realistic approach starts here.

  • 1302: The Real Reason You’re Stuck: Pressure Screams, Priority Whispers
    May 5 2025

    You don’t need more time — you need fewer false fires.

    If you constantly feel like there’s just not enough time, this episode will change the way you see your life — and your to-do list — forever.

    Inside the Consistency Course, I hear it every day: “Life got busy. I meant to do XYZ. But the day got away from me.” And the problem isn’t laziness or lack of motivation — it’s the fact that we’ve confused pressure for priority.

    We’ve been taught to answer to what’s loud, urgent, and externally expected. But that kind of pressure has nothing to do with what actually matters to us.

    In today’s episode, I’ll show you exactly how to stop working in your life — and start working on it. You’ll walk away with tools to clarify your true priorities, protect your time, and reset your habits so they actually reflect what matters most to you.

    🔑 In this episode, we’ll unpack:
    • Why pressure screams louder than priority — and how to stop answering it

    • The real difference between “need to” and “want to” — and why that distinction matters

    • Why working in your life is keeping you stuck (and how to start working on your life instead)

    • The simple perspective shift that reveals what’s really urgent — and what’s just noise

    • How to protect your most valuable time — even in a full, chaotic life

    🧭 Ask yourself:
    • What are my top three true priorities right now?

    • Do my habits, calendar, and energy reflect those priorities — or not?

    • What needs to change so that they do?

    📌 Quote to remember:

    “You don’t need more time. You need fewer pressures disguised as priorities."
    “Most people are working in their lives. Very few are working on them.”

  • 1301: Don’t Feel Ready? Why Resourcefulness Beats Readiness Every Time
    May 3 2025

    If you’re waiting to feel confident, prepared, or fully equipped before you go after your goal — this episode is your wake-up call.

    In this raw and honest solo show, I’m sharing lessons from a recent experience hosting the very first gala for the Dagny Foundation — including what it taught me about discomfort, asking for help, scrappy problem-solving, and why we often stay stuck by thinking the same old thoughts.

    I’ll walk you through the biggest mindset shifts that helped me get through something I didn’t feel ready for — and how those same shifts apply directly to your goals. If you’ve ever felt unqualified, overwhelmed, or afraid to start, this is the conversation you need to hear.

    What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

    ✅ Why waiting to feel ready keeps you stuck
    ✅ How discomfort can actually be a green light for growth
    ✅ Why asking for help is your power move, not your weakness
    ✅ Real examples of resourcefulness in action
    ✅ How to stop thinking inside the same limiting mental box
    ✅ Why what you’re dreading is almost never as bad as it seems

    Listener Challenge:
    • Ask for help this week — even if it feels awkward.

    • Do one uncomfortable thing you’ve been avoiding.

    • Brainstorm 3 “stupid” ideas — and act on one of them.

  • 1300: Ghosting Your Goals - And How to Stop
    Apr 28 2025

    We’ve all done it.

    Started strong. Felt focused. Made a plan.
    And then… disappeared on ourselves.

    We check out. Drift. Ghost our own goals.

    Not because we don’t care.
    Not because we’re lazy.
    But because somewhere along the way, doing the work stopped feeling desirable.

    In this episode, I’m breaking down the real reasons we stop showing up—and how to finally change the pattern.

    Because this isn’t just about missing a few days. It’s about rebuilding trust with yourself and learning how to stay—especially when it’s hard.

    In this episode, we’ll talk about:
    • Why your mindset and your strategy both shape your consistency

    • The subtle beliefs that make not showing up feel easier

    • How “eating your emotions” and “self-sabotage” are keeping you vague and stuck

    • Why you need to practice disappointment (yes, really)

    • What overstimulation is doing to your focus—and how to reset it

    • Why showing up at 2% effort still counts (sometimes, it counts more)

    You’ll also hear how I use these same principles in my own life—and how we apply them inside The Consistency Course to help people finally stop ghosting their goals.

    This is one of those episodes you might want to listen to twice—because we’re not just talking about how to show up today. We’re talking about how to stop disappearing for good.

Episode 1040

Another great Primal episode, as she explains ways to get stuff done when you just CBF. The feeling can ride with me but it can't drive. I love this concept. it's worth your time to listen in.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
