Ed said that when he thinks about death, he envisions himself meeting God for the first time. "Ed here is the man I designed you to be,” God will say to Ed, “This was the man, husband, father, and businessman you had the full potential to become. But here's who you actually became." Ed started crying on stage during this story and said that's one of his biggest motivators. To reach his full potential and become the best version of himself. I'll never forget that speech. It changed me. There are a lot of factors into reaching your full potential - Goals - Vision - Mindset - Work Ethic - Environment These are all critical in your success. But the one factor that I believe has the greatest impact is your Standards. "You get the standard you accept. You get to decide," Ed said. Standards are the system of how you live your life. They are the non-negotiables that shape the future of our life. Simply put, they are the personal rules of our life. Show me your standards & habits, I’ll show you your future. The most successful people that I know are as consistent as the tide. They are consistent with their attitude, behaviors, actions, and habits. Their standards don’t change because of their feelings, environment, mood, stress levels or criticism. They have clear and purposeful rules of life (aka standards) that they live by every single day. Let’s take Craig for example. I believe one of the biggest reasons Craig has been so successful is because of his standards. - Doesn’t Swear. - Doesn’t Hit Snooze. - Doesn’t Drink Alcohol. - Doesn’t Engage In Drama. Just to name a few. It doesn’t matter where he’s at or what he’s doing, Craig embodies these standards every single day. As the great NFL coach Mike Tomlin says, “The Standard Is The Standard.” The power of raising your standards includes: - Increases Your Confidence… because your mind rewards your consistency - Helps You Hit Goals… because consistent actions bring better results - Simplifies Decision Making… because you have rules for your life - Allows For More Self Control… because it requires less willpower - Attracts More Great People In Your Life… because people crave consistency in others However…. There is one major mistake you must NOT make when it comes to standards: Do not copy other people’s standards. Your standards are YOUR standards. A few years back I learned this the hard way when I tried to copy one of Craig’s standards. I respect Craig so much, I thought it would be cool to copy his “I don’t swear” standard. I tried to stop swearing several times. And failed each time. Why? Because it wasn’t meaningful enough to me. (Craig tells a similar story about how he tried to learn chess in 2013… he quit after a few days because he just didn’t care, and was only learning chess because he thought “that’s what smart people did”. Instead, he switched his efforts to becoming consistent with meditation — something that mattered to him — and he hasn’t missed a day since, over 10 years later.) For me, I didn’t have a strong purpose and personal pull to Craig’s “no swearing” standard. I was trying to live someone else’s standards. Don’t make that same mistake as you create your own standards. You must create your own rules of life that will help you reach your full potential. ***** Thanks Daniel! I couldn’t have said this any better.
