    Podcast Summary

    • Consistently putting in more effort than othersBeing 'built different' means waking up early, staying late, asking questions, working hard when no one's around, embracing challenges, and pushing through discomfort for constant pursuit of improvement, not for feeling good or seeking validation.

      Being "built different" means consistently putting in more effort than others, even when it's difficult or uncomfortable. It means waking up early, staying late, asking questions, working hard when no one's around, and embracing challenges rather than avoiding them. It's about having a "don't mentality" and pushing through discomfort to grow and become great. It's not about feeling good or seeking validation, but about constant pursuit of improvement. The speaker emphasizes that greatness is not a one-time achievement, but something that must be earned through consistent effort and execution. It's important to remember that just putting in hours of work doesn't guarantee success – it's about what you do with those hours and how effectively you execute. Lazy people may put in some effort, but true winners work as hard as they can and still strive to do better.

    • Embrace the process of becoming the best version of yourselfBelieve in yourself, put in daily hard work, and stay focused on your goals to achieve success, not just the end result.

      Success is not about having a dark mentality or just making do. It's about striving to be the best in your field and putting in consistent daily hard work towards your goals. You must believe in yourself and have the discipline to keep going, even when the journey is uncertain or difficult. The process of pursuing your dreams and becoming the best version of yourself is what truly matters, not just the end result. Stay relentless and focused on your goals, and don't let fear or doubt hold you back. Remember, the only thing guaranteed in life is losing if you don't chase after what you want. So go out there and hunt, embrace the process, and never give up.

    • The importance of perseverance and determinationQuitting is not an option when faced with challenges. Instead, find inner strength and push forward to overcome obstacles and develop resilience.

      No matter how difficult or discouraging the situation may seem, it's essential to keep pushing through when you feel like quitting. We're all human beings, and it's natural to encounter challenges and setbacks. However, giving up during those moments can hinder our growth and progress. The discussion emphasizes the importance of perseverance and determination in the face of adversity. It's crucial to remember that every hour, day, and moment spent working towards a goal, even during the most challenging times, brings us closer to achieving it. Furthermore, the conversation highlights that quitting is a temporary solution to a long-term problem. While it may offer instant relief, it can lead to regret and missed opportunities. Instead, focusing on the end goal and breaking it down into smaller, manageable tasks can help make the journey seem less daunting. In essence, the key takeaway is that quitting is not an option when faced with challenges. Instead, we must dig deep, find our inner strength, and keep pushing forward, no matter how difficult the journey may seem. By doing so, we'll not only overcome the current obstacle but also develop resilience and grit that will serve us well in all areas of our lives.

    If I Believe It, I Can Be It: Rocìo Pèrez

    Rocío Pèrez, international speaker, best selling author, inclusion and diversity thought leader and trainer, believes that she was built for hard times and that the inconceivable blows that life threw her way, made her tough - made her resilient. We invite you to listen to this remarkable story of hope and endurance as Rocío shares with Kristin how she made her way from horrific child abuse and neglect to being a 12 year old runaway...to soon after becoming a mother at 15. What she learned along her journey, she shares, was that she, and she alone gets to choose what she believes is possible, not what others tell her: whether that was her education, parenting, career or even her health. She embraced that ultimately, she was responsible for her own healing through taking courageous action and stepping out of her comfort zone, knowing that if she was not scared, she was not learning and growing and leading the way for others to do the same.

    Mindset That Conquered Paralysis w/Chris Norton

    Mindset That Conquered Paralysis w/Chris Norton
    When you’re 18, you’re in the prime of your life. Your best years are ahead of you. You’re filled with ENERGY and EXCITEMENT as you finally reach adulthood. Your prospects are bright and you feel like nothing can stop you now. But in a flash, your life can change forever. Chris Norton was a college freshman defensive back until he sustained a devastating injury while making a tackle during a game in 2010, leaving him paralyzed from the neck down. After years of hard work, he DEFIED THE ODDS and regained limited mobility in some parts of his body. He didn’t know it at the time, but his life was about to change dramatically again. Chris captured hearts everywhere when he walked across the stage to accept his college diploma in 2015. The video from that day racked up more than 300 MILLION views. Three years later, People magazine created another viral moment when they filmed Chris’s walk of 7 yards down the aisle at his marriage. He used his notoriety to start the Chris Norton Foundation and has become a leading advocate in helping people with neuromuscular injuries and disabilities. His story was chronicled in the book The Seven Longest Yards and captured in the Netflix documentary 7 Yards. It was an honor for me to talk with Chris and tell share the story about a man who refused to give up and relied on his FAITH to overcome one of the most crushing challenges I can think of. Chris pulls no punches talking about how he was injured and how difficult those early days of his injury were. As he tried to HEAL both his body and mind, Chris reveals how people close to him, including his parents, nurse, and his wife Emily, helped him get through the tears and the daily demands he placed on himself. I was also struck by how SELFLESS Chris is because he made it his calling was to OVERCOME his pain and his struggles for a greater purpose by INSPIRING others to face their challenges as well. His story reminds us that have so much to be THANKFUL for in our lives, no matter what has happened in our past. If you’re down or feeling you can’t overcome the obstacles life has thrown at you, Chris’s story will help you find inspiration and RESILIENCE as you face your own challenges.   👉 SUBSCRIBE TO ED'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈  → → → CONNECT WITH ED MYLETT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: ← ← ← ▶︎ INSTAGRAM ▶︎ FACEBOOK  ▶︎ LINKEDIN ▶︎ TWITTER ▶︎ WEBSITE Learn more about your ad choices.
