How to Become the ONE: Unlocking the Power of Self-Mastery, Pain, and Purpose In this ultimate mashup episode, I’m taking you into the core of my message—the truths that have shaped my life and that I believe have the power to transform yours. This is not just about motivation. It’s not just about strategy. It’s about rewiring how you think, how you operate, and how you see yourself—because when you do that, everything changes. Alongside powerhouse thinkers like Tom Bilyeu and Matthew Higgins, we dig deep into what it really takes to reach your highest self. What you’re going to hear are the principles I’ve lived by: the power of doing one more, embracing inconvenience, and pushing into the extremes to expand your capacity. We talk about self-confidence—not as a feeling, but as the byproduct of keeping the promises you make to yourself. And we confront the uncomfortable truth: conformity is cowardice. Playing it safe is the fastest route to regret. You were born to be the one—now it’s time to act like it. We also talk about the cost of settling. When you don't chase your potential, it’s not just you who suffers—your family suffers. Your children watch you model what’s acceptable, and if you’re modeling mediocrity, you’re giving them permission to settle, too. Success isn’t just about money or status—it’s about being whole, being excellent in your body, your mind, your relationships, and your soul. If you want to live an extraordinary life, you need to show up fully in every area, every single day. And finally, we go to a deeper level—the legacy you leave, the pain you’ve endured, and the purpose hiding in your shame. I share the most emotional story I’ve ever told—about the unknown stranger who helped my alcoholic father get sober and unknowingly changed the destiny of my entire family. The point is this: what you think disqualifies you—the pain, the setbacks, the shame—may be the exact thing that qualifies you to change someone else’s life. You might be the one. You probably are. Key Takeaways: - Self-confidence is built by doing what you say—and then doing one more. - Pursuing inconvenience is the fastest path to growth and joy. - Conformity is cowardice; greatness demands courage and authenticity. - Your pain and shame may be the keys to someone else’s breakthrough. - You are either modeling greatness for your family—or teaching them to settle. - Success is wholeness: in body, mind, soul, and relationships. - True humility and self-confidence must coexist for real leadership. - Your time is your most precious asset—compress it, expand it, own it. - You don’t need to be perfect to be qualified. You just need to be willing. This episode is my heart. It’s everything I’ve lived, learned, and now give to you. If you’ve ever doubted yourself, if you’ve ever felt behind, or if you’ve ever wondered if you were meant for more—this episode is your reminder: You are the one. ▶︎ Visit My WEBSITE | https://www.EdMylett.com Learn more about your ad choices.

1:57.0	they're wasting their time, they're not getting the results they want, what is one thing that
2:00.4	they could be doing right now that would turn things around for them?
2:02.6	Well, actually doing one more. So, you know, we always talk you and I both about self-confidence and the fact that building self-confidence is the process of keeping the promises you make to yourself. And if you lack self-confidence, you've got a relationship and reputation with yourself that's not very favorable. And so the baseline way to get self-confidence is you keep the promises you make to yourself. But in life, as you know, we don't get like our goal, we get probably 25% of our goals. But we ultimately always get our standards. Long-term, you will get your standards. So the question becomes, what's the standard need to be then? And that standard needs to be, you keep the promises you make to yourself and one more.
2:35.6	So if you're gonna do 30 minutes on the treadmill every day, you don't do 30 minutes, you do the 30 minutes, you do one more. You're gonna make 10 contacts in a day. You don't make 10 contacts in the day. You do the 10 contacts and you make one more. Now what happens is you start stacking up those one more. You're gonna tell Lisa you love her every day.
2:32.5	You don't just tell her that.
