Welcome to now. This is The Ed Myron Show. Welcome back to the show everybody. So today I've got a really difficult question for you. Is your will to win for sale? You know, I really believe that of all the things that comes down to in life about winning and making our lives the masterpiece that we want them to be, I really believe will has a lot to do with it.

And the people that I've been around in my life, they have strong faith, obviously, but there's a part of them that has this will to win, this will to want to be somebody that's extraordinary. And for most people in life, I think when they take enough failure, enough setbacks, they will sell their will to win. It's an interesting thing in life about winning. I just want to discuss this with you today. You know, you have to really decide right now and early on in the journey that you can't be bought. You can't be bought with enough success and you can't be bought with enough failure. Most people at the

end of the day quit on their dreams usually because there's just so much rejection and so much failure and so much let down. You know I would love to tell you that winning is pretty and that making your dreams come true for your family is beautiful but man I gotta tell you on the journey for me there was so many setbacks. So many times I thought I had it going and then I didn't. I thought we were gonna make it and then maybe we weren't. So many people that I thought I had it going and then I didn't. I thought we were going to make it and then maybe we weren't. So many people that I thought would be there at the end that weren't. There were people like you probably have had in your life that you really, really trusted that then let you down and hurt you. Dark nights, sleepless nights, some really difficult mornings with a lot of anxiety and trepidation. You know, if you're gonna win, you're gonna have carry the emotional burden

of your business, of your family. And sometimes that burden emotionally just over time is so difficult to carry that most people will surrender their will. You know, I really believe that winning has a lot to do with your will to win. It's not always just, you know, having the right strategy or the right people in place,

although you can't win without them, but at some point it comes down to grit and desire and toughness and resiliency and relentlessness. And I call all of those things will, but for most people with enough of it, enough setbacks, enough things, they'll just sell their family's dreams up the river. They'll call it something else, don't they? Well, I didn't get along with somebody or there was this setback or the economy changed or this person screwed me over or whatever the story is that we come up with, all which could be valid. But at some point, basically what you're saying is all of that was too much and so I've sold my family's dreams up the river. And I say it to you that harshly because I want when it comes for you,

for you to avoid it that strongly, that I won't let you create a word game that makes you feel like it's okay to take an out, you know, take the door in the back there and get out of here and quit on your dream. That's not what you were born to do. That's not what it was designed for. Part of the game of this winning thing, part of the game of changing your family forever, part of the game of changing how you feel about yourself is really difficult. And it's going to come with all of those things I described and more and shocking setbacks.

Every couple two or three years gonna be a day where you go my gosh, right? Like that's going to happen and for most people at one point they just go that's enough. That's enough and that's why so few people win because theirs is for sale. See, what I would recommend you do is negotiate the price tag in advance. See, I believe the price you will pay to make your dream come true, your vision for your life come true is infinitely less than the price you will pay if you don't.

The price you pay if you don't make your dream happen, your vision for your life is you live with that forever. And that price I would never be willing to pay. I'll pay any other price as long as it's legal, ethical, and moral, because the price you will pay to make that dream come true is so worth it. And it is so much less than the price of living with losing forever, with the life you don't deserve,

with the people that you don't want around you, with all of your music still in you. So many people pass away with all their best music in them still because of the setbacks or the criticisms or the things that just didn't go their way or their fears holding them back. Price tags of life are interesting. See, successful people negotiate worth whether

something is worth it, not what the price is or the expense is. If you're focused on the expense, you're always in a really difficult place. I'll give you an example. This is a metaphor, but it makes sense. When I had no money, right, which was most of my life, when I would walk into a store, I wouldn't get what I wanted in the store. I would get what I thought I could afford. And so what did I do? I flipped the price tags over. I didn't always just get what I wanted. What's the cost? What's the cost? What's the cost? What's the cost? I'm sure you've done that as well. It's just really one of the real things in life. What's the cost? I wouldn't get the jacket in there I wanted based on what it cost. So that's a scarcity mindset, right? And so instead, when I became a wealthy person, I'm able to walk in that

store and get the one that's worth it. What's the one worth it? And in our lives, when we're operating from a weak position, we're operating from a poverty mindset, we're constantly negotiating the price tag of like, what's it going to cost me? What's it going to cost me? What's it going to cost me? And we focus so much on what it's costing us, the pain we're going through, the price we're paying. We're constantly focused on the price we're paying that eventually we just go, I can't do it. The cost is too great. If you're focused on the cost, you'll eventually lose because the cost is so extraordinary. But if you switch that subtly and say is it worth the price? Is it worth it? You focus more off the cost and onto its worth

Then you got it. And so let me ask you What's your family worth? What are your dreams worth? What's the pride of living the life that you've dreamed of worth to you. And once you focus on the worth, you'll probably pay any price. You'll go through any cost, but you have to negotiate. In my opinion, that price in advance, I think if you wait till you're in the middle of it, you're in big trouble. And so I would challenge you today to negotiate the price you're willing to pay

in advance, whatever it is. And then the negotiation is over. So decide now what price you're willing to pay or not pay for your family. And just be honest about it. There's a certain place where I'm going to sell my family's dreams up the river. You know what? I'm just going to give up. And that's what most people do in life. They, like I said, they call it something else. They frame it differently.

They create a story that makes them feel okay about it. By the way, the only reason I know this is I've done it myself on several different things. This guy screwed me over here, that one let me down. Ah, you know, timing wasn't right, right? Whatever. The bottom line is that the price became too great for me. Had I negotiated that price in advance, maybe that would have never happened. So if you focus on what it's costing you all the time, which is what you're doing and you know it's costing me this time,

it's costing me this money, it's costing me this experience, it's costing me this, it's costing me that, you're probably going to lose. But if you start to focus on is it worth it, is the price I'm paying worth it, then you got it. If you've been listening or watching this show for a long time, you know what a big believer in NetSuite I am.

I got to tell you, most of them have been to therapy.

And they've told me therapy has made a big difference in their life. It's made a big difference in my life. And so whether you've got like a real traumatic thing you want to work through in your life that you've not resolved yet, or maybe just got an emotion you'd like to get rid of or improve, maybe it's none of that. Maybe you just got kind of something you want to talk through, a problem you want to work through. If you've been considering doing therapy, I think you should take a look at BetterHelp. BetterHelp is done entirely online. And what I love about it is they match you with a licensed therapist. If you don't click with the therapist, you can switch at any given time to a therapist that meets your needs that you kind of click and vibe with.

Is it worth it? Is it worth it? You're asking yourself this all the time How do I know it's what most people do that are trying to do something great. Is it worth it? Is it worth it? Is it worth it? Right? What's it costing me? What's it costing me? You're constantly negotiating takes all your energy It takes all your focus. And so the bottom line is it's better to just to decide today and I would just ask you What's your family worth? What are your dreams worth? What's your life worth? What price are you not willing to pay? Hopefully you don't want to do something illegal or unethical or immoral to do it, but beyond that, what's the price you're willing to

pay? And get clear on it and then just stop negotiating it. Stop doing that thing back and forth, those mental gymnastics that you know exactly what I'm talking about and just decide I'm going to win. I'm going to pursue this. Whatever comes my way. I've already negotiated in advance. So although it might be shocking or really painful, I already negotiated that price. I already negotiated it. One of the cool things for me, like in my faith is I know the price has already been negotiated for me, right? Like it's already been negotiated.

I didn't have to do it. Remember this change only happens when love is greater than your fear, when love is greater than your price you're paying. What I believe you have to do is you have to start to attach yourself to the love you have for other people. That love, because you're such a good person, is so much greater than the adversity that will come your way. But what happens when adversity comes, we detach from our love for our family, for ourselves, from the people that we want to help. And the love part gets diminished and the fear and pain part gets increased. See, you show me anybody with a big old dream with enough reasons

to win and I will show you somebody who's going to win. I believe more than anything in life, having big, giant, compelling reasons why you want to win. The why is so much greater than the how or the what. The why is. And relentlessly focusing on that. When the why is big enough, you'll go through the how and you'll figure out the what.

Right? But in most cases in life, we don't attach those two things. People say to me all the time, I'm not even sure what will motivate me. I can tell you, do you wanna know the two things that'll motivate you in your life? I'm gonna give them to you right now.

You always go, I lack motivation, I lack inspiration. I can tell you what they are. They're your dreams or other people. Those are the two great motivators in life. Usually most good people won't do very much stuff for themselves. They just won't. They're too giving.

They wanna change other people's lives. They love other people. They put other people first. Those are the people that ultimately win long term. So the two things will motivate you. Your dreams, what your vision is for your life and other people. Those of you that have children, are you really willing to quit on them? Are you? If you have parents that you love, are you really willing to quit on them or do you love them more than any adversity that will come your way? Could you negotiate the price in advance say listen, it's worth it because my mom is worth it It's worth it because my children are worth it. It's worth it because my god is worth it It's worth it because I'm worth it. It's worth it because my dream is worth it

It's worth it because if I make this happen I can change all these other people's lives and those lives are worth the price I'm paying. Once you have the thing and the reason, the love for what you want, now you've got the negotiation handled because that is greater than the price. But when this isn't focused on, when the price is greater than the love, when it's greater than the dream, it's difficult. So one of the examples of that that I've talked about before is Bella's wedding day.

Number one key from Bella's wedding day story from that many years ago, 20 years ago, why matters most? You show me somebody with a big enough why, a big enough reason, I will show you somebody who will solve for how to do it, for what to do. I will promise you

that. Why is the most important thing? You give a father a story like not being there and the picture, the mental picture in my mind of some strange man that I've never met before having that first dance and walking Bella down the aisle on her wedding day, I'll do anything to make sure that doesn't happen. I'll do anything to be there. And I can tell you I've done just about anything. In fact, my doctors that I'm with right now, part of that journey of staying healthy, where I found both of them, Gabrielle and Amy, is because I want to be there on that day and beyond. One of the reasons I'm willing to take this sort of downshift to some extent is, yes, I'd love to help more people. And yes, I'm going to contribute. And yes, we've got

one of the number one podcasts in the world and I'm one of the top speakers and my businesses are growing and all that matters and I want to help all kinds. I want to continue to help millions of people that I've been blessed to help but not more than I want to be there for Bella's wedding day and so number one key is why matters most. If you say I don't know what my why is, I can tell you. Let me give you a hack to find your why. Your why will always be your dreams, whatever your dreams are, or other people. Whys can be distilled down always into dreams or other people, doing something for other people that you love or proving people wrong. And what I will tell you under the why is that love is the biggest force in the world.

under the why as that love is the biggest force in the world. crescendo of culture. Listen as a chorus of fresh voices moves you, taking you to greater heights, add your voice to the mix and let fresh answer back with perfect harmony in Pure Michigan. Keep it fresh at Michigan.org. My will to win is not for sale. So that's why I get up and I work out. That's why I try to do the nutritional program. That's why I'm taking this break from social media and reducing my travel schedule because my dream is to be at Bella's wedding day and my will to win is not for sale on that. I've got to be there. There's no negotiation for me. It's get up and work out. It's make sure you take the right nutritional supplements. It's the doctors say slow down Ed and take a break for a

while. I do it. There's no negotiation because I belong in that dream I belong there with Bella on her wedding day and I like to get to the heart of it guys like I think the more We watered down the reason the easier it is to have the price take us out Listen as I've been doing this video or audio with you Thousands of people quit on their dreams Thousands of people quit on their dreams, thousands of people quit on their vision. Every single day, thousands and thousands of people quit on something. And the reason they quit is the price got too great.

And by the way, that's okay as long as you've already done the negotiation. But I have a feeling that if I asked you again really closely, how much if your parents are still here, do you want to make them proud of you or take care of them? How about your children or your spouse, these people that you love the most? Maybe it's none of them. Maybe you have a grandparent who that when you were a little boy or a little girl really believed in you, really saw greatness in you, and you want to honor them and make them proud of you as they've gone to heaven and they're looking down on you and you want to make sure that you really prove them right. Right? I won't

let you not focus on that today because if I can get you focused on these people you love or these great visions for your life, I think that that is greater than the price you'll pay. And so I want to ask you that today one more time. Are you willing to quit on them? Are you willing to give in? Really? The only way you can lose in this life is to quit. Only way you can lose is to quit. Now that doesn't mean you shouldn't pivot, innovate, course, correct. Those aren't those. That's not quitting. That's the pursuit of something and saying, listen, what I'm doing isn't working. The definition of insanity is do the same thing over and over again.

Expect a different result. I've got to innovate. I've got to pivot, I've got to get a different strategy. Clearly, I think you should be doing that. That's what my show is all about, is about strategy and innovation and progress. But the truth of the matter is most people aren't totally committed to their dreams. They're not. They're going to stick their toe in it. I'll stick my toe in it as long as it's not too painful, doesn't get too difficult, too uncomfortable. Take too much from me, be too too inconvenient then I'll pursue it but if it gets too inconvenient too difficult too uncomfortable yeah I'll

give him let me give you a secret people ask me all the time about the people that have been on my show that are some of the greatest achievers in life what do they have in common and I'm gonna be candid with you here's what they have in common they don't have it all figured. They don't have it all figured out. I don't have it all figured out. Most everybody, frankly, is pretty screwed up to some extent or another, and we're all just trying to get through this life and figure it out. What they also have in common is they didn't quit on their dreams. And the reason they didn't quit on their dreams is their love of their dream, their love of other people was greater than their fears for their inadequacies.

But I can tell you that we all feel inadequate. We all don't feel prepared. We're all sort of faking it to some extent, aren't we in our lives? And I know that shocks most people, but I think it should give you hope. They don't have it all figured out. I don't have it all figured out. But what I have figured out is that I'm willing to go into situations I'm ill prepared for because I want to win for the people I love so much. I want willing to go into situations I'm ill prepared for because I want to win for the people I love so much. I want to win for me. I want to win for God. I want to do something great with my life. And so although I don't have it figured out completely, I don't have all the answers and neither does anybody that's been on my show.

Anybody you've seen on this show as my guest, most of them don't have the vast majority of it figured out, but they're better at pretending they do. And to the extent that they are good at stepping into spaces they aren't prepared for, but that they can kind of pretend they're prepared for, they got this belief in themselves that if I can get in the room, I will figure it out from there. You know, if you had to know everything required to win in life, the truth of the matter is you probably would never get started. If Henry Ford started Ford Motor Company and said I have to know

Everything for the next hundred years for this company. He would have never got started I mean who's supposed to repair these cars? There's nowhere to repair them because there's no dealerships yet. There's no mechanics What about all the stuff for the tires? You know, how are we gonna fix these things? Where are they all gonna get fuel from? What are we gonna do when there's a mission standards? These things didn't even exist then he couldn't think through every logical problem He had to just get started if Steve Jobs and Wozniak when they started Apple Which was basically a board company would have thought about well, what would the internet comes? What about this iPhone phone software? What about the Mac? What about they could never think about all of those things things evolve? You just get into the next room and you evolve you just get into the next room and you evolve

Right you get into the next space and you evolve so you don't have to know everything by the way No one you see that successful knows everything but they do have this ability that when they get in the room They're not negotiating the price anymore. They're negotiating their way into the next room. They're negotiating their way to the next level They're willing to take the heat and the adversity and then then the other thing is this, you got to resell yourself regularly on the dream. You know, once you have a dream and you know what I'm talking about, some of you are years into years, right? Maybe you just got to resell yourself on the dream. What it's going to mean when you get there, what it's going to look like, how amazing it's going to be. Project into the future. Listen, an idle mind really,

really is in pain. It's in jeopardy. But a mind who's saying, I'm fully focused in the present, but man, the future looks so bright. The future's amazing. It's going to be incredible when we get there. Everything's going to be different. We're going to have great change. Our family's never going to be the same. We're going to get to go to this vacation and see this thing and help that many people and feel that emotion and have that memory. The truth of the matter is that your dreams in your life are not a hallucination. I believe they're a gift from God that is a glimpse into what's possible. It's like a possibility projection for your life is when you look into the future. Dreaming is free, yet most people don't take

advantage of it or they did it once but they haven't resold themselves the dream again. Maybe you need to go touch your dream. Take a weekend somewhere where you get clear on this is where we'd love to live or this is what we'd love to drive or this is how I'd love to serve in our church and just take a Wednesday and serve one day in your church and resell yourself. You know, most of life, the truth is, is really selling yourself on things. You're selling yourself something right now. You're selling yourself your worries and your fears and you're selling yourself the story of how big a trouble you could be

and if this doesn't work out. It's a sales pitch you're doing on yourself, aren't you? It's a story you're telling yourself. There's a narrative that you're starting to speak to yourself. So is the other one. It's reselling yourself on the dream, on the story, on the narrative of where you're going

and what it's going to look like. I just feel like in life, a better life is to sell yourself on the future. Sell yourself on how great it's gonna be when you get there. Learning to live fully present in the moment. Let me say something. When you're negotiating the price, you're not present. You've projected into the future more pain more difficulty. You're not in the present

So if you negotiated it already and you block that off in your mind you go, I've already decided I'll pay that price I've already negotiated that that's already happened for me Then and only then can you sell yourself on where you're going and what it's going to like look like when you get there And when I say resell yourself, I'm a big believer that you need to touch your dreams. And so I said this a minute ago but I want you to understand it. You got to sell yourself on stuff. So like for example, like where I ended up living in my life, I would take a little vacation there on a weekend for like one night. I'll never forget this. I wanted

to live in Dana Point, Laguna Beach, California, that area. And so when I would have a win in my business, I would go to one night at the Ritz-Carlton in Dana Point Laguna Beach. Just one night there. And I never had been anywhere like that in my entire life. And I had the feeling of driving up to the valet in my not-so-great car at the time. But I remember just the feeling. It may sound hokey, but given the valet my keys and Mr. Mylet, or you know, are you staying here? Yes, your name, Mylet. Great. You write Mylet. I never forget the first time the guy wrote Mylet on the valet tag and he gave it back to me. I saw my name,

Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel, or Laguna Beach, and then it said Mylet. And I remember putting that in my pocket. And I remember walking into the lobby and like the marble floor. I was like, oh my gosh, this is incredible. And I'd watch how other people walked and talked that belonged there, because I didn't feel like I belonged there. And then I checked into the hotel. And I remember back in those days,

I would go play golf just to be around successful people. And, you know, my wife would go get a massage and lay out at the pool. And then we'd have a nice dinner. And I would just touch that drink just for one night. Maybe every eight weeks. successful people and you know my wife would go get a massage and lay out at the pool and then we'd have a nice dinner and I would just touch that drink just for one night maybe every eight weeks just one night but what started to happen is I started after time over time going I belong here I belong here I became comfortable in that dream and our mind moves towards what it's most

familiar with and then I remember the first speech I gave being super uncomfortable But I remember the more I did it the more I felt like I belong here. I'm comfortable here I moved towards what I was familiar with and it's interesting the other place that I would go take my many vacations was to the desert To the Palm Springs La Quinta area of California and I would go out to this one resort called the La Quinta resort I couldn't afford to be there for more than one night, but I'd get a deal on the room, you know, and I would just touch that dream for a night. I remember going, wow, these desert nights are so amazing. And then we'd go out there maybe like three months later,

but I would touch that dream three or four times a year, and I would touch the other one. Do you know that later in life, for many, many years, those are the two places that I lived. I lived in that area and I lived in the other one. And I really believe it's because I had touched that dream over and over again. Maybe your dream isn't anything like that.

Maybe it's to be full time in the charity or full time in your church. Go take a day off and serve and just feel like it. Maybe do that every three or four months if you can and touch the dream. Because we move towards what we're most familiar with and we get in life what we believe we deserve and where we believe we belong.

And so long term, if you're doing this negotiation thing, you just don't believe you belong there. And at some point there's gonna be enough pain that's gonna prove you right. You're gonna go, I knew I didn't belong here. I knew this wasn't for me. I knew this was for other people. I knew I'm an imposter.

I knew I was faking it. What am I crazy? And I have to tell you, I have this happen all the time. Like I have something I'm an imposter. I knew I was faking it. What am I crazy? And I have to tell you, I have this happen all the time. Like I have something I'm doing right now in my life. It's a very major project. It's a property that I'm developing. And there's a lot of difficulty with it. And every time that difficulty comes up, I go, what am I doing? Am I crazy? That's not for me. That's for someone way wealthier, way more successful than me. And I have this thing where I want to surrender, right?

I'm negotiating it, so I'm not perfect at this stuff. And so a lot of times when adversity strikes, it's like proving you right, the price is too great, the price is too great. I'm literally going through this right now with something. And I have to remind myself, I'm reselling myself on the future. I'm actually today, tomorrow, I go visit that place just'm reselling myself on the future. I'm actually today Tomorrow I go visit that place just to resell myself on the dream of being there just to resell myself on the vision It's so easy when you have a vision in a dream

Right and you have it So you establish a plan and a goal and then you start going through the stuff and you feel like further and further away from The vision and the dream and why you did it in the first place and the inspiration behind it. And you're more and more focused on the price. So today's podcast, I literally designed for me, right? It's the price. I'm like, gosh, it's taken a toll on me physically. It's taken a toll on me emotionally, right? Financially. Yet it's my dream. It's my dream.

And so I've got to come back and go, I love this dream. I love the experiences I'll have with my friends and family more than the price right now. Stop negotiating the price, Ed. You already negotiated this price. Your love for these people in this place and the memories that'll happen there are greater than your fears and your worries. And then I'm reselling myself by going back because our mind moves towards what we're most familiar with. So if we're most familiar with our fears and your worries and then I'm reselling myself by going back because our mind moves towards what we're most familiar with. So if we're most familiar with our fears and our worries and our concerns, we're going to move towards it. It's like a magnet. Thoughts are magnets. They pull us towards what we're focused on. So it's very dangerous to focus on all the pain,

all the price, all the cost all the time because you're going to move towards more of it. But if you focus on how worth it is, remember this cost versus worth, right? Then you can say my will to win is not for sale. I can't be bought. You can't be bought with enough success and it can't be bought with enough failure. You know many people are bought with success. They have a dream, they get a little bit of it and then they're bought. Their will's gone. They don't want to work like they used to work because they've got a little taste of success They had a little taste of progress Those people end up paying a greater price later when it goes backwards and they have to start all over again So don't let success take your will to win and don't let failure take your will to win

I think basically today my message to you was You got to decide right now what you're willing to pay for a price and not. And once you've decided it, don't revisit it. Don't revisit it. Just make the decision that you're gonna will this to happen. Get some prayer about it. Get some clarity about it. Feel like you've got a conviction over it. You know, get your mind empty. Meditate a little bit. Get clear. And then ask yourself, is this really my dream? And if it is, start reselling yourself all the time on that dream. That it's worth it, that you belong there. I'm gonna say something to you

that I want you to never forget. You belong in your dreams, your big, bold, God-sized dreams. Those aren't hallucinations. Those are visions of what's possible in your life. And I wanna tell you, I believe you belong in those dreams. You do not belong in your fears. You do not belong in the negotiation. You do not belong in your worries. You belong in your dreams, the big ones and the small ones. But I think especially

the big God-sized dreams and most of those dreams are how you want to feel about yourself. The emotions you want to experience, the memories you want to have, I believe are the things that most matter to us. It's not the thing or the house or the this. It's how we want to feel. And I believe you deserve to feel that way about you and never give in to a price that tells you you're not willing to do it or worthy of having it in your life. All right, my friends, that's my message for you today. I hope this gives you some inspiration, some thoughts, and that some of the things I said resonated with you and hit home. You belong in your dreams. God bless you. Max out. This is the Ed Mylon Show.
