Welcome to the rewire podcast.

I'm your host, Ryan Stumann,

and I'm here to rewire your mind for success.

You were put on this planet for success.

You were created to succeed,

but the force of average is after you every single day,

my brothers and sisters,

and this podcast is the one thing that's designed

to help you fight the force of average and excel in every

area of your life. We're glad that you're here. Most of my life, I was not a happy person.

I mean, you couldn't tell. But deep down inside, I had a lot of baggage that I was carrying.

I had a lot of insecurities that I dealt with. I had a lot of confidence that I was carrying. I had a lot of insecurities that I dealt with.

I had a lot of confidence issues and just overall mental struggles that I faced.

And later on in life, as I started to gain a little bit of success and notoriety,

those insecurities, those fears, those things they kept bubbling up.

And I tried to think of ways to suppress them, to make them go away.

You know, the first thing I did was I went out and I thought, well, you know what?

I don't feel successful even though I am.

Maybe I should buy myself a nice car.

Then it's maybe I should upgrade my house.

Maybe I deserve a gold watch.

Maybe I should go on a vacation.
