Summary

Episode Description You've got a mission statement. Great. But here's the problem—you're probably confusing everyone, including yourself. Most people share one mission with the world and wonder why they're exhausted, distracted, and pulled off course constantly. Scott reveals why you actually need two mission statements to stay on track. One protects your why from the inside out. The other communicates your purpose without giving away your power. This week kicks off a focused series on clarity, vision, and understanding what truly drives you. No more running on someone else's agenda. Featured Story Years ago, a mentor called Scott out on something he already knew but wouldn't admit. Scott was rambling on about his passion for the work he was doing. Building businesses. Creating content. Making things happen. He thought that was the key—the stuff you do is how you get success. His mentor didn't buy it. "You're not excited about the stuff you do. You'd rather not do it. You're excited about the experience you create." Plot twist: He was right. Scott wasn't driven by tasks and tactics. He was driven by transformation. By creating experiences that change people. That realization changed everything—and it's the same wake-up call most successful people need today. Important Points Most people can't verbalize what truly drives them from the inside out, even when they know it deep down. If you don't define yourself clearly, the world will decide who you are and tell you who to be. You need two missions—one internal that keeps you on track, one external that helps others understand you. Memorable Quotes "You're not excited about the stuff you do. You'd rather not do it. You're excited about the experience you create." "Nobody needs to know what I'm doing. I'll do it, and they can catch up." "Internal is your protection. It's your sovereignty. It's your power. Your external is your communication. It's your connection. It's your impact." Scott's Three-Step Approach Ask yourself what actually drives you when nobody's watching—not what sounds good or looks impressive on LinkedIn. Write down your internal mission and keep it private, sharing only with people who truly support your vision. Create your external mission by asking how you explain what you do without requiring you to explain everything.

So I have a birthday coming up, and I know they say, don't worry about the age, and I'm not really, but I am a little concerned about what they call my biological age. That's the age of my cells and my organs, because I recently learned that's the number one predictor for serious disease, like heart disease and cancer and dementia and a whole lot more. Iick. So when my sponsor, True Diagnostic, sent me a true age test. I was like, yes, let's do this thing. It's a simple at-home test.

It helps you uncover your true biological age. You get personalized insights and you take control of your health, basically. Did you know, by the way, that if your biological age is just five years older than your actual age, your risk for major disease goes up by 30 to 50 percent? I didn't know that. It's a little scary.

0:38.5

But this good news, I guess, up to 90% of biological aging is driven by lifestyle so you can change it. I'm really excited to see my results. I'm a little scared, but I'm also really motivated.

Not what you tell people at networking events, not, but that deep why that gets you out of bed in the morning.
