The Impossible Life

252. The 5 Excuses That Will Make You Average


Listen Later

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface pull back the curtain on what it truly means to live ALL IN — not the motivational cliché, but the biblical, practical, and battle-tested reality. They show you the 5 most common and popular excuses that people buy into that keep them from going all in.

Most people think “all in” means going 1000 percent every day. Garrett and Nick reveal why that mindset burns out more men than it builds. They break down the two true ingredients of being all in:
  • Level of Effort (time and energy)
  • Level of Commitment (belief and discipline)
Through stories from the Navy SEAL teams, leadership lessons from business, and biblical parallels to marriage and faith, they explain how men can hold fast to the mission even when motivation fades.

You’ll learn:
  • Why effort alone will never make you successful
  • The “Big Five” reasons commitment breaks down
  • How to lead yourself and others when your leader or plan isn’t perfect
  • The power of trust, belief, and consistency in every area of life
  • What it really looks like to be a man who finishes what he starts
This episode is a gut-check for every Christian man who’s tired of half-hearted living and ready to commit to the process, not just the feeling.
