Welcome back to The Daily Mastermind, George Wright III with your daily dose of inspiration, motivation, and education. I'm excited that you're here and I'm excited for this week. We've got a different format coming, but before we get started, I want to give you the quote of the day. The quote of the day is from Henry Ford and it's, failure is only the opportunity to more intelligently begin again. Failure is only the opportunity to more intelligently begin again. I really love that quote. And I think today is a great opportunity to begin again. So let me set you up for the week. So we've got a different format this week. What I'm going to be doing is I'm going to be releasing a lot of interviews. Now, many of you have probably seen the interviews over the last week or so. I'm not going to generally release these long form interviews. What I'm going to do is I'm going to set up and grab snippets out of these key interviews for you to be able to listen to, to be able to learn. And then you'll be able to go catch those full length interviews over on our YouTube channel. The goal here, remember the goal is to provide you a daily dose to keep you motivated, inspired, and educated. And most of you as entrepreneurs, business owners, investors are super busy and I respect that. And so this week, for example, today, I'm going to share a principle with you. But on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, you're going to hear from someone like Mitchell Levy on credibility and building credibility for your business. We've got Miriam Ortiz-Epino on simplicity and productivity habits. And then Thursday, we're going to be talking about passive income through real estate with Lane Koakawa. Now, I want to really get into some details here with you. I want to talk with you today. And usually on Mondays, I want to talk to you about prosperity principles for success that will set up your week. But this week and today, I really want to drill down on this idea of the commitment, discipline, and resolve that you have in creating your best life. Now, I want to ask you a question. How is your year going so far? How are you doing? Are you seeing progress? If not, why are you not seeing progress? And if you are seeing progress, are you performing at your highest level. See, so many of us are experiencing pain and setbacks and struggles and stress and anxiety. We fail and then we learn and we start again and then we repeat that process. This is just, it's a process of business and life. And you've heard me say before, we cannot avoid the pain but we can choose what we do with the pain and how we respond to events in our life We also cannot avoid failure or the stress or the anxiety but we can decide how we deal with it and how we deal with the stress And ironically, we can determine the level and intensity of the stress that's created in our life. And I used to, for example, I used to try to create systems to avoid and get rid of the stress and anxiety. but through mentoring and surrounding myself with the right people, I've learned some valuable lessons. I learned that I just need to develop systems to deal with the stress and anxiety more productively, and that will create more peace of mind in your life. So what I want to do today, I want to talk to you about how you deal with stress, anxiety, and problems in your life while you're on this path towards your best life. So I want to talk to you about something specific, about your commitment level to growing and mastering and creating your best life. Because if you decide that you want to create your best life, you've got to be committed. So let me ask you another question. Are you truly committed to creating your best life? Are you creating disciplines in your day-to-day activities that are moving you consistently towards that best life? Because you say you're committed. You say you want that. You say you want to get a growth in yourself, but are your actions reflecting those beliefs? Are your actions with your daily rituals reflecting what you say you want? Are your actions the way you respond to challenges? Are they reflecting your commitment level? And are you living outside the comfortable environment of what you know so that you can easily win or stack wins? Are you trying to stay inside your comfort zone? So to set your week up, I want to talk with you for just a minute about the idea that your level of commitment and discipline and resolve are not only going to determine your results, but they're going to actually determine the difficulty of the path that you're on to your best life. Let me say that again. Your level of commitment, discipline, and resolve are not only going to determine your results, but they're going to determine the difficulty and the struggle of the path that you're on in your best life. So let's break these down real quick. First, your level of commitment will create and define your path to your best life. Your level of commitment is going to create and define your path. So the reason I say that is this. Once you make a decision to create your best life you still have to stay committed Then as things come along you be able to make better decisions because of that commitment Once you commit to the path and the plan all decisions can be measured up against the path Does that make sense? In other words, as opportunities come, as problems come, you can measure them up against your commitment to the path. This is why commitment is so important. It's so important to have that commitment to your future life because then everything that you do, all the opportunities, all the distractions, they're going to be measured against that level of commitment. So remember, how you do anything is how you do everything. So make and stay committed to your best life and to the path. The second thing is your level of will determine your results along the path. While commitment will create that path and the difficulty on the path, the discipline will determine your results along the path. So, you know, your discipline is going to help you to create habits. And the habit, those are things that are going to carry you through days when you don't feel like doing what you want to do, when you don't have the motivation. But discipline is all about consistency over time. It's the measure of your level of commitment. So don't be fooled by the occasional person that says, oh, you need a break. You need to take a little day off once in a while. Don't let discipline ever get compromised, ever, by anyone. Because how you do anything is how you do everything. Winners take pride in their level of discipline in their lives, the level of discipline. For example, I started taking a cold shower at the end of my shower at the beginning of the year. I'm not about to compromise that by having a day off. And what I found, results have gotten better. I've gotten more clarity, more energy, more specifics in the morning. It definitely wakes me up, I can tell you that. but discipline is the gateway to your best life period it's the gateway so your level of discipline is going to determine your results then finally your level of resolve it's going to ultimately determine your peace of mind so commitment helps to normalize that path and your discipline is really going to help you get the results but your resolve will ultimately determine your peace of mind and your ability to handle what's giving you on the path towards your best life. What's the difference here? The definition of resolve is to settle or find a solution. But I also noticed it said a firm determination to do something. And this is huge because decisions lead to commitments but it also has to lead to a level of resolve in your life When you resolved to create your best life you not only firmly committed but there a point of clarity in your vision that arrives, and it'll help you to create peace of mind in your life because your best life will become so clear that the small waves or ups and downs and bumps and things that come up, circumstances in your life will be less distracting because you see the clarity and you've made the decision and the firm commitment to your best life. So those little things are not going to be in the moment as big a deal. And that level of resolve will help you to do that. And it's, you know, it's my ultimate desire that you'll create an unprecedented level of resolve towards a life of health, wealth, and happiness. And, you know, a life of mastery and purpose. This is why I created the Daily Mastermind. So I want you to, and that's why I'm here with you today is I absolutely want the best for you and I know you're capable of that. But I believe that if you will become more aware of your levels of commitment, discipline, and resolve in your life and in your business, and if you'll increase those levels of commitment, discipline, and resolve, you will absolutely achieve unprecedented levels of success and happiness in your life. And you'll begin to create, live, and enjoy the path towards your best life possible. It's guaranteed. It's principles of success that are proven over time and are reflected in so many successes in history. So that's my message for today. I want you to know that, and I want to know how you're doing.
