  2. Acceptance – Embrace the Suck
  3. Action – Let It Go & Move Forward

Practical Habit-Building Tips

  • Start small: build habits gradually
  • Habit stack: tie new behaviors to existing routines
  • Be consistent, not perfect: occasional failures are normal
  • Track progress: apps like Map My Run help visualize growth
  • Reward progress: celebrate wins, even small ones

Note that creating healthy habits can take 18–254 days, averaging around 66, but warning don’t let statistics become excuses.

Episode 0037 Stay In Your Lane

The Old Rucker dives into the theme of “staying in your lane” reflecting on lessons from the military, scripture, and personal experience about avoiding gossip, meddling, and unsolicited advice. Through stories of misjudgments, humility, and encounters with both busybodies and bad drivers, he emphasizes the value of minding one’s own business, practicing forgiveness, and leading by quiet example rather than ego or self-righteousness. The message is clear: resist the urge to control others, let go of resentment, and focus on service, kindness, and working with your own hands to build respect and peace.

Episode 0033 Joy vs Grief

This episode centers on the tension and interplay between joy and grief as essential human emotions. Bob the Old Rucker explores how grief is a natural response to loss, while joy is a deeper, lasting state that often gets overlooked or dismissed, especially in tough or military-hardened mindsets. Distinguish healthy grief from destructive self-pity, contrast authentic joy with false substitutes like temporary pleasure, and gratitude as a bridge between them.
