Are you convicted or Are you interested?

Most people don't know.. But, There is a MASSIVE DIFFERENCE

Convicted - the state of mind of a person who is sure that what he or she believes.

Interested - having the attention or curiosity

If you are convicted you will find a way.

If you are interested you will find an excuse.

If you simply have interest in something you will find reasons it won't work, reasons to not take action.

When you are convicted to something...

NOTHING CAN STOP YOU!!!

You can't be stopped, you don't have limits. You have excuses.

The excuses we make on a daily basis are what create the cage and walls we live in.

The 80/20 Principle or Pareto Principle says 80% of your results come from 20% of your activities.

I believe its even more skewed than that. That most are doing very few things that are leading to the actual life they want. Leading them to "the best version of themselves"

Meaning most of what you do throughout the day is actually a distraction.

Most of what you are doing is taking you farther from your goals or the life you want.

Dr. Marshall Goldsmith says, "If we do not create and control our environment, our environment creates and controls us.โ€

We live in a world of constant distraction, constant infiltration on your time, your attention, constantly pulling you away from what you want.

This is the airplane concept, which says that an airplane spends 90% of the time course-correcting, for head winds, tail winds, turbulence pulling it off course.

It's a very simple 2 step process:

1. Tell me your goal.

2. Show me your calendar.

Are the tasks/ activities on your calendar in alignment with the goal? If not fix it immediately. Create Values around your goal, why it's important to you. So you can choose tasks and activities that are in alignment with your goal.

Evan Stewart is a serial entrepreneur, investor, and venture consultant with a knack for growing people-oriented, profit-rich organizations. A firm believer in leaving individuals and companies better than they were found, his mission is simple: to create a world in which people are inspired by their potential, motivated by their progress, and fulfilled through their lifeโ€™s work

Show Notes:

-I just started finding problems and solving them for peopleโ€ฆ

-Everyone is out there dropping โ€œknowledge bombsโ€ without actually creating a

sustainable company.

-I realized I was doing more speaking than listening, and that not a good thing.

-Entrepreneurship is like sitting in the dark for months and years, and if

youโ€™re willing to sit in the dark long enough all of a sudden the lights pop on

and you find success.

Do this and your life will change, a message from Jerry Rice.

"Today I will do what others won't so tomorrow I can do what others can't.โ€

If it's worth doing, it's worth doing the best you can do it!!

If you give it everything, even the small things, 100%, you train yourself to be great! Make your bed, clean the kitchen, sweep the floor, do it the best you can do it.

Train yourself to be great!

One task at a time.

You don't decide your future.

You decide your HABITS.

Your HABITS decide your future. -FM Alexander

John Madsen said... High performance is when excellence in psychology meets excellence in physiology.

But you must start with your physiology.

"There is nothing more pitiful than a ready and willing mind but an incapable body" -Jim Rohn

If you need a psychology reset challenge your physiology, go move, override your psychology. You are more likely to Act your way into feeling than feel your way into action. -Dr. Jerome Bruner

You then upgrade your operating system, your mind, how you think.

You must blow up your old way of thinking and reprogram your mind with upgraded material.

Every next level of your life will require a new you!! CREATE HIM/HER

High-performance coach Ben Bergeron has a simple saying:

E+R=O

Event + R = Outcome

The R is the factor. You either React or Respond

There is a major difference.

React = Impulsive, Emotions

Respond= Calculated, Principles

How does the "Best Version of You" handle high-stress situations?

Show Notes Summary:

• My first attempt at suicide (that people knew about) was when I was 12 years old.
• At 15, with the police and crowd gathered, I let go of the railing to jumpโ€ฆ then a man saved my life, and gave me my life everyday since.
•  A stranger cared enough in a moment to stop, care, and reach outโ€ฆ
•  I was not healed afterwards, but it was the last time I tried to kill myself.
• I decided to be in control and STOP standing on the sidelines of my life after that moment.

In the critically acclaimed book ๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ, psychologist Ethan Kross explores the silent conversations we have with ourselves. He warns that giving in to negative and disorienting self-talkโ€”what he calls โ€œchatterโ€โ€”can tank our health, sink our moods, strain our social connections, and cause us to fold under pressure.

Engaged Chatter- is getting stuck in the cycle of negative thinking and feeling.

But the good news is that we can make our inner voice also work in our favor. By being aware, taking note of, and leading the most important conversations we have everyday...The one's with ourselves.

Most of us would never to talk to other's they way we talk to ourselves. So why is it ok? Because most the time it goes undetected. We don't even realize we are doing it. Let's change it!

We must get our Thoughts, Words and Actions in Alignment.

We must create "Self-Synergy".

When those thoughts are coming, when you are stuck in the Chatter....

Ask yourself: Is this thought serving me? Is it in alignment with who I want to be and where I want to go?

Is it....

The 5am Club

The Miracle Morning

The Nighttime Routine

Meditation, Movement, Afternoon Naps

The One Thing

Sounds confusing, but the answer is.. Yes!

All of those work, Its actually, what you are committed to!

Commitment is a statement of what is!

You can know what you're committed to by the results you are getting.

Not by what you SAY, by what you are DOING

If you want a different result, you must commit to a different behavior.

Its a simple as the 3C's to create habits of success

Commit- Identify the goal/result

Competence- Go get the skills necessary to achieve that result

Confidence- Its only earned by doing
