Summary

What if the real reason you’re not winning yet isn’t a lack of talent… but a refusal to raise your standard? In this mashup, I’m bringing you some of the most powerful voices in personal development to confront a question most people avoid asking themselves. Am I really doing everything it takes to reach my dreams, or am I just staying comfortable? I sit down with Tom Bilyeu, Jesse Itzler, Eric Thomas, and Brendon Burchard to break down what actually separates people who talk about success from those who live it. One of the biggest truths we uncover is that success is not about who you are today. It’s about who you are willing to become. I share openly how I had to rebuild my confidence from nothing by keeping small promises to myself and stacking wins day by day. Brendon Burchard breaks down why accountability is the missing link for most people and how fear of judgment keeps you stuck playing small. And Eric Thomas brings the fire with a message most people need to hear. Either raise your standards or lower your expectations, but stop lying to yourself about the gap. You’re also going to hear something that could completely change how you view your life. From Jesse Itzler, we talk about stepping into rooms you are not prepared for and figuring it out later. That willingness to act before you feel ready is what creates opportunity. Too many people sit on the sidelines waiting to feel confident first, when in reality confidence is built through action, not before it. And then there’s the truth that might hit you the hardest. You already know what you’re not doing. There is something in your life right now that you know would change everything if you leaned into it. The problem is not awareness. The problem is action. I break down why your life is a direct reflection of your standards, not your goals, and why doing one more is the habit that changes everything. This episode is a wake up call. Not to inspire you for a moment, but to challenge you to raise the level you are operating at every single day. Because the difference between average and extraordinary is not talent. It is the willingness to do what others will not do consistently. Key Takeaways: Why your standards determine your life more than your goals How keeping small promises to yourself builds real confidence The hidden reason people avoid accountability and stay stuck Why stepping into rooms unprepared is the fastest way to grow Eric Thomas’ truth about raising your game or lowering your expectations The power of doing “one more” and how it compounds over time Why awareness without action is the trap keeping most people average I want you to walk away from this episode with one question in your mind. Not what you want out of life, but what you are willing to do to earn it. Because once your standards change, everything else in your life will follow. 👉 SUBSCRIBE TO ED'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   → → → CONNECT WITH ED MYLETT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: ← ← ←  ➡️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠INSTAGRAM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   ➡️⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FACEBOOK⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   ➡️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LINKEDIN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   ➡️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  ➡️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WEBSITE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Learn more about your ad choices.

1:58.6

And, you know, I've been to a few of your homes and it's just

incredible. It's why I'm really inspired by the life. But who did you have to become as a person

2:07.5

to achieve this? Certainly not who I was, that's for sure. Well, I would say this. I always grew up,

2:15.3

I think I've always, I'll brag about one thing. I think I've always been a pretty kind-hearted person. I've always loved and cared about people. So I think that part of me was foundationally a really good thing. Even before you started working with the boys? Yeah, even before I worked at the orphanage, I think I was pretty decent human. But about everything else had to change. I had no

self-confidence. I didn't have a real picture of what success looked like. Even as something is,

2:44.3

you know, seemingly insignificant of like having a vision and a dream for what I wanted. Like,

2:49.2

I come from a really wonderful family. Everybody knows. Most people know my dad wasn't alcoholic and a drug addict when I was young. But my family is not material oriented. It's not even really achievement oriented. We didn't take vacations as a family, anything like that. My family is just about loving one another and being a good family member, being a good human being and being generous. So even remember when I got into like the business world, people are like, what are your big dreams and goals? I'm like, I have no idea. And I would literally, and it's not a bad thing, I would find someone, I kind of modeled their life at first, you know, like I'll test run. I remember one of my first... See if that fits. How does that feel? Like...
