THE ED MYLETT SHOW - Success Starts Where Comfort Ends
Episode Date: August 21, 2025The Road Less Traveled: Why Struggle Means You’re on the Right Path If everybody around you is cheering you on, chances are… you’re not playing big enough. The truth is, the journey to greatnes...s isn’t supposed to feel comfortable. It’s filled with resistance, rejection, doubt, and moments of deep loneliness. And as painful as that can feel, those are actually the signs you’re on the right road—the road less traveled, the road to freedom, and the road to becoming the person you were born to be.In this episode, I break down what it really looks like to pursue success—not the highlight reel you see on social media, but the real, gritty, lonely process that comes with choosing to live differently. I share why feelings like fear, anxiety, rejection, and even isolation are not signs you’re failing, but green lights that you’re moving in the right direction. When you feel like giving up, when the yield signs in life tempt you to take the easy path, that’s the exact moment you have to decide: I will not yield.I also tell one of the most powerful stories from my own life—how years of setbacks, rejection, and persistence led to a miracle I never saw coming: helping my sister regain her vision. That moment reminded me that staying the course on the road less traveled doesn’t just change your life—it creates ripple effects you can’t even imagine for the people you love.This conversation is about more than chasing your dreams. It’s about recognizing that the pain, doubt, and struggle you’re experiencing are proof that you’re in the right place. And if you stay on that road—committed, serving others, and refusing to yield—you will not only achieve your dreams, but unlock blessings and opportunities far beyond anything you could picture today.Key Takeaways: • Why rejection, fear, and isolation are actually signs you’re on the right road• The difference between the crowded, comfortable path and the road less traveled• Why commitment creates freedom—not bondage—in your life• The role of service in lighting the path when the road feels dark• A powerful personal story of how persistence led to a miracle for my sister• How staying the course opens doors to dreams you can’t even imagine yetYou were born for something great.

This is the Admiral Show.
All right, welcome back to the show, everybody.
Really excited today to talk to you about your road to success.
Just your road in your entire life.
And the things you should expect if you're going to choose the road less traveled.
I was reading a couple lines from The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost.
It's a great poem.
If you've not read it, you should.
But he says, two roads diverged in a wood.
and I took the one less traveled.
And I think if you're going to pursue success in your life,
you have to decide you're going to be on a road that most people are not on.
And a lot comes with taking that road.
And I think a lot of times success is glamorized on social media right now.
It looks like it's about Lamborghinis and private jets and, you know,
great dinners and amazing stuff like that.
But the truth is the journey to success, especially as an entrepreneur or even as an athlete,
or in really any endeavor, can be a very painful journey.
And you can feel very alone.
And it's designed that way.
And so it often bothers me when I hear people say, I need this support from my spouse or my friends or I've got haters or no one understands me or I'm getting all this rejection and negative feedback from people.
I've got haters.
That's the road you're on.
Those are the signs you're on the road less traveled.
Those are the signs you're on the path that most people aren't going to be on.
That you're going to a place.
Most people aren't going to go in their lives.
And so what comes with deciding to be great, deciding to do something awesome.
with your life is all of those things it's a total the other road the road that almost everybody you know
is on that road's well lit it's beautiful there's all kinds of great scenery there's not a lot of bumps
in the road not a lot of potholes right everything's wonderful on that road it's also very crowded
the road to success the road less traveled let me just tell you something that road it's windy
it's up and down there's potholes you're going to have breakdowns you're going to have breakdowns
You're going to have blowouts.
You're going to have days that you can't even get it started again.
It's a dark road.
It's not well lit.
It's all kinds of bad things on that road.
That's the road to success.
And you're not going to see a lot of people there.
And then there's going to be a few times you're going to hit a yield sign.
And everything in you is going to tempt you to yield to the road everybody else is on.
Because it looks so good over there, right?
Everyone's there.
It's well lit.
It's sunny out.
Your road, there's ice.
It's snowing.
It's raining.
It's dark.
it's windy, it's massive ups and downs, all the breakdowns.
And when you hit the yield sign, the reason I'm making this message today, I don't care
what level of that road you're on or how far down.
By the way, on the road everybody else is on, there's navigational equipment, there's directions,
everyone kind of goes in the same direction.
The road less travel, the road to success, sometimes you feel like you don't have a map,
sometimes you feel like you don't have any direction or sense of direction.
And you get so far down at some things like, what am I?
doing well let me just say something to you when you get down that road right you're going to hit yield
signs regularly they're going to try to get you to yield and give in and yield back to the other road
and it's your decision right now when you're listening to me today to say i will not yield i will not
give in my will to win my will to do something great is not for sale because i'm going to tell you
this road is difficult and i often find it amazing when people say i'm getting all this resistance
I'm getting all this rejection.
That's exactly what it's supposed to be.
Let me tell you what comes on the road to success.
And I know this isn't pretty, but maybe for some of you say, oh, that means I'm in
the right place.
If recently, at any point in the last 12 months, you've experienced doubt, like lots of doubt.
You're probably on the road less traveled.
There's no doubts on the easy path.
There's no doubts just going to a job every day, collecting a check, going about your
business, not trying new things, not challenging yourself.
not growing, not contributing, there's no doubt there. What are you going to doubt? Everybody's
doing it. Right? So if you're getting doubt, that means you're on the road less traveled.
If you have a lot of fear or anxiety on the road you're on, or if you've experienced those emotions
recently about what you're doing, you're feeling like an imposter, like you have imposter syndrome,
like nobody knows I don't really know what I'm doing. You're on the road that I think you should be
on, the right road, the road less traveled. If you felt anything like rejection, like lots
of rejection. You get all kinds of rejection on the road. By the way, you want to go get a
beautiful relationship in your life and you're on a road to that? It comes with rejection.
You want to build an amazing business? It comes with rejection. You want to build an amazing
body? It comes with rejection. So if you experience that, you're on the right road. You're on
the road less traveled. You don't get rejection on the road to doing nothing. And so the very fact,
what I'm trying to get you to understand is the very fact that you're experiencing these things
means you're on this road that I've been on, that most of your heroes have been on, that the people
that make a difference, the people that change the world, that change their own world, that
change their family's generational tree forever, those people, by the way, the people that you know
that are the most happy and fulfilled at some point had to go down this road to achieve those
things. Maybe if you felt a lot of isolation like you're alone, I think the number one thing
I felt often on my road and my journey, and even to this day, is I feel alone. People don't
understand me, right? Just get ready, by the way. If you're going to do something great with
your life, you're going to be controversial. People are going to talk about you. You're going to feel
like no one understands you. You're going to feel like no one else is coming with you. Even when
you're surrounded by a big team, even when you've got a bunch of people working with you, oftentimes
you feel very alone. It's a very lonely road. You know what happens when you're alone?
and you're lonely you learn a lot about yourself you know when you're at a big party and it's
crowded and noisy there's all kinds of people around you everyone's having a great time you don't
learn a lot about yourself then it's the times that you're alone and you do feel a little bit
isolated is when you actually dig deep into yourself and you find things out about you that
you never knew existed and you work through pain you work through trauma you work through
difficulties you're on the right road you feel any anxiety you have any anxiety you've
experienced recently you're on the right road
So I'm actually telling you that these things that seem like the negative things are actually
indications.
They're actually green lights.
A green light is doubt.
A green light is fear.
A green light is rejection.
A green light is isolation.
A green light is anxiety.
And then here's the other thing that happens when you're on this road.
Because it is so difficult and treacherous.
You start really beginning to ask yourself, is it worth it?
Is it worth it?
and if you've had any occasion in the last recent little while or in the last 12 months of your life
to ask yourself, is this worth it? That contemplation of whether it's worth it or not means you're on
the right road. It means you're on the right road. See, people that are on that other road,
they're not asking themselves if it's worth it because they're making no sacrifice. There's no
commitment. Remember this with no commitment, with no sacrifice, ultimately in your life,
there's never any freedom and so where you really are is you're on a road to freedom spiritual freedom
emotional freedom financial freedom physical freedom relationship freedom you're on the road to have
a freedom of choice of your emotions by the way as well now do i think the entire journey has to be
painful absolutely not am i saying there isn't amazing moments and amazing highs and you can have
blissful dissatisfaction on the road and you can enjoy your life still on this road
1,000% on the road less traveled you can enjoy your life you can have beautiful experiences
and an amazing relationship but the truth of the matter is you see all that on social media
all the time every once in a while somebody's got to tell you and also there's some of this other
stuff also there's some pain also there's setbacks by the way the other thing that happens
on this road is two or three times a year there's just a massive catastrophe
in crisis. I'm just telling you, I haven't had a year go by in my pursuit to my dreams.
There's not been a crisis or a catastrophe every three or four or five months,
couple times, two, three, four times a year. If you haven't had a catastrophe or a crisis in your
life in the last 12 months, you're not doing something great. You're not trying to grow. You're
not trying to change things. You're literally trying to change your life, change your family's life
forever. So these things come with it. Again, I want to be clear. There's all kinds of amazing experiences.
And having been on this road, I can tell you the beautiful experiences and the emotions and the
breakthroughs and the pride that comes with overcoming these challenging things, overcoming doubt,
overcoming fear, overcoming rejection.
That's the juice of life.
It's where all the juice is.
It's where all the goodies are.
It's ultimately where all the rainbows are is on the more difficult road.
You can't get a rainbow if there isn't a storm.
And so I just feel like so often people, they listen to podcasts like mine and they think, man, my gosh, it's like most people aren't going through.
Everyone that's gone anywhere great in their life has had their version of this adversity in their life.
And like I said, you're going to be controversial.
You decide to do something great.
You've decided people aren't going to understand me.
People aren't going to relate to me.
Listen to me.
Don't be so caught up in these external voices that are gnawn at you, are talking.
bad about you. You got to listen to your inner voice. That inner voice that's been with you
since you're a little boy or a little girl that says you were born to do something great with your
life. So hey guys, I'm loving the shirt I'm wearing right now. If you're on YouTube, you can see it.
And if you're not on YouTube and listen on audio, I got a great looking shirt on. And guess where I got
it? I got it at quince. That's where I get my stuff now. I'm going to tell you why. We're all dropping a

Here's what I know about you if you're on this road less traveled.
You've always known you're supposed to do something great.
There's been this little part of you when you're a little boy or a little girl and just whispered to your spirit.
It whispered to your soul.
You're supposed to do something awesome.
You're supposed to be happy.
You're supposed to be blissful.
You're supposed to make a difference in other people's lives.
And it's okay that you may not know where this is going or what it's going to look like.
Or even where the end of the road is.
It's okay.
But all your life you've known this, here's what's crazy.
So have all the other people on the road everybody's on.
They heard the same things when they were a little boy or a little girl.
They have the same calling.
They have the same emotions.
They had the same decisions.
and they yielded, and there's a bunch of them over there that yield.
And let me tell you what they live with.
See, when they get to the end of their road, it wasn't real bumpy, the weather was pretty good,
they get to the end of their road someday.
It's the end of their life.
They're going to look back at their life with regret.
They're going to look back and say, I played it safe.
I didn't take any risks.
I lived, here's the truth, I lived my life scared.
I lived my life afraid I might.
crash I might burn people might talk bad about me I might be a failure and so I'd just
rather just kind of cruise in fact at some point in my life on the road everybody's on
I just flipped on the cruise control took my hand off the gas pedal hand off the
steering wheel and it was all about cruise control and hitting the brakes the road
you're on it's beautiful it's more beautiful than you realize you're gonna see things
you would have never seen. You're going to experience things you would have never experienced. You're
going to achieve things that you would have never achieved. And you'll get to the end of your life.
And by the way, you may not get where you want to go. You may not get all the way to whatever this
place is you think you're going. And for some of you don't even know what it is. You just know
it's not where you are now. You just know it's not where I am now. This is not what I was made for.
This is not what I was born for. And I'm just going to get on this road. I wasn't born for
this. I'm going to get on this other road. I'm going to start driving. And I don't know where
it's going to take me but I'll take a left turn and a right turn I'll do whatever I got to do
but I know I wasn't born to be where I am right now and I may not have the exact map
the navigational equipment nobody's supporting me but I know I wasn't born for where I am now
and you may get to the end of that life the end of that road and not even get to a place you
thought you would get but here's what you won't have you won't have regret see I don't
think in life we regret the things we try to do and we fail at I think the regrets in life
for the acts of omission, the things we didn't do that we omitted from our life, the opportunities
we didn't chase, the dreams we didn't pursue, the challenges we didn't face up to, the curiosities
and the learning and the growth we could have had that we just didn't pursue because most other
people don't. Most other people don't. And so you're not going to have people relate to you.
Now, listen, on this road, you have to be willing to course correct. You've got to check in with
yourself once in a while. Is this still my current dream? Where am I heading?
Where am I going? What does this mean? And I also think you have to just decide I'm going to stop trying to get support of all the people around me. If everybody around you is supporting you, you're probably not trying to do something very big. You really aren't because most people don't want you to see you get too successful or too happy because it'll expose them. So don't let people with small lives and small thoughts project their limitations onto you because they're trying to get you to yield to get on their road.
I miss you.
You ever hear that?
I miss you.
I miss the way it used to be.
I miss this.
They're basically saying, come on.
Get in the back seat.
Take your hands off the damn steering wheel.
Quit hitting the accelerator.
And let's just cruise around for a while.
And you inside you knows that you weren't born to cruise.
You were born to experience life.
And to have great memories.
No great memories come from something that everybody does every single day.
The monotony of life.
Now, what would I recommend you do to pursue this dream a little bit better?
I think you need to find a mastermind or a group of people that you can be around that support
your thinking.
Listen to podcasts like mine, especially mine, on a weekly basis.
And the other thing is, when you're on this road, one thing that will light this road up for
you is service.
When you're feeling most helpless on this road, get the most helpful.
Do everything you can to help other people.
When you begin to just serve other people, contribute to other people, encourage other people.
See, maybe it's just an act of encouraging words that you give to somebody today.
That active service to another human being increases your vibrational frequency.
And when you increase your vibrational frequency, you face less resistance because things begin to become attracted to you,
as opposed to you having to pursue everything all the time.
acts of service, acts of contribution in your life at every single level along the way.
From the person, listen to this, who's making negative $10,000 a year in their bank account
right now and they're piling through money and losing money to someone making $100 million
a year, your pathway to more illumination, to more light on where to go next is through the
acts of service to other people.
What that does is it lightens your life.
It enlightens your life and other people.
But the other thing it does is it increases your vibrational frequency and things begin to become more attracted to you rather than you having to chase everything in your life.
I want to remind you as your friend, the reason I do this show is that I believe there are millions of people on the wrong road.
Millions of people on the wrong road.
And I also believe there are millions of people on the right road who don't know it.
Who don't know it because it doesn't look like that on social media.
feel like it with the people around us remember this when you're in the midst of doing something
great with your life it typically doesn't feel like it when you're doing it it typically does not
feel like it when you're doing it it's only in hindsight that you look back and say wow that was
amazing i can't believe i overcame that and sometimes the most chaotic parts of our lives
the busiest parts of our lives the times where we feel like we have the least amount of freedom
are the happiest.
If I ask you to think back to some of the most, you know, chaotic times of your life
where you had the least amount of freedom and some of the most difficult times and you
were the busiest, maybe you were the most happy.
See, if there was a mother listening to this and I said, what about that pregnancy that you had?
That discomfort of carrying that baby and maybe you got sick and you had different, you know,
issues with being pregnant and the discomfort of it and the birth process, no more.
man can possibly relate to it. I'm not even going to try. But that was one of the most difficult
times of your life, yet it's the time that you're the most grateful for and you feel the most
blessed. Those of you that were in college at one time and you were crazy studying and cramming
for tests and had a job to support yourself and two jobs or three jobs and you're out of control.
And you look back at that time and you go, man, I love that time in my life. Isn't that interesting?
Those of you that have had, you know, had to have one or two or three jobs at any given time and it
It was very, very difficult, and you're busy and scattered and everyone thought you were crazy.
Some of the happiest times of your life.
So sometimes chaos and difficulty and doing something great, all we feel is the chaos and difficult.
We don't know we're doing something great.
It's only in hindsight that we look back and go, that was when I was the most happy.
And so the truth is this.
What you really want is freedom.
What you really want is freedom.
You want a freedom in your relationship, freedom financially, freedom in your career, freedom
in your emotions and I'm going to tell you the pathway to freedom ironically is total commitment
most people think wow if I commit to this relationship I lose all my freedom nothing could be further
once you've committed to something you're completely free now to act on that decision
lack of commitment is a is a jail is bondage because you've got nothing to decide to do with your
life to do something great total commitment to a business you're starting or pursuing or a new
hobby or new this creates total once you've made the commitment all these other options are gone
and now you've got complete freedom to pursue that decision to pursue that road and so what you're
really on on the road less traveled is the pathway to freedom and whatever that means to you
and nobody needs to understand it and you don't need anybody's permission you don't need anyone's
permission the cool thing about our road there's no speed limit there's no speed limit you can go as
or as slow as you want to and I like that part of it. I'm just going to tell you right now
you were born to be on the road less traveled and I want to challenge you today to know
that when these things come up these are indicators you're on the right road not the wrong
road I want you to remember that today and the last thing I'll tell you is this don't yield
don't yield there's going to be all kinds of temptation maybe even today to yield to yield to
the road everyone's traveling on.
See, we make micro decisions every day.
Maybe your overall journeys on the road less travel, but today, I'm going to be on the road
with everybody else.
Today, I'm not going to work out.
Today, I'm taking the road everybody.
Today, I'm not going to eat great.
Today, I'm not going to make all my contacts.
Today, I'm not going to make a total commitment.
I'll get back on the other road tomorrow.
See, this road you're on needs to be a lifestyle.
It needs to be a lifestyle.
It needs to be a commitment that there are very few moments we're on the road with everybody
else. If you're on this road
the majority of the time, eventually
the road gets lit up. Eventually
it produces a pathway to freedom
and eventually your dreams.
And by the way, you'll begin to achieve
dreams you never thought you even had
before because these left
and right turns and around every corner
there's a new dream and a new vision and a new
experience because you're going to start to go faster
and faster and fast. You're going to vibrate at a higher and higher
frequency.
Okay guys, I'm drinking a ton of water, which is good.
I'm sure you do as well. You know what I'm learning about?
It's depleting my electrolytes.
And so electrolyte deficiency or imbalance can give you headaches, cramps.
Big one for me, fatigue.
I couldn't figure out why I was so fatigued, flushing out all the electrolytes.
Brain fog, weakness.

I can just tell you in my own life,
I've made dreams happen that I never imagined.
I would have never imagined.
I have a sister who's diabetic and she was losing her vision.
She was actually became legally blind.
And I had no idea over the years while my sister was struggling.
She has type 1 diabetes.
I had no idea that, you know, as I was working hard and getting rejected and all the
negative things that were happening to me and all the anxiety and all the worry and all the late
nights and all the early mornings and all the overdrawn bank accounts and all the difficult
times. I thought that dream was to become rich and famous and all that kind of stuff. But the ripple
effects of what you can achieve in your life are really amazingly unknown around these corners
on the road less traveled. And what happened was I actually did build a bunch of wealth. And that
was cool. And I bought a house in a particular neighborhood. And one time my sister lost her vision to the
point where she couldn't drive and she's a school teacher, she couldn't even teach anymore because
she couldn't see the classroom and she's got diabetic retinopathy and she was starting to get
justifiably depressed imagine being able to see and then you can't even just close your eyes for five
minutes in darkness when you're awake right it's one thing to be born without vision another thing to
lose it and so one night my mom had called me and was particularly telling me how concerned she was
that my sister was just downed and she's better she's living in darkness and she can't go do
what she loves to do what she was born to do which was to teach these children she's an amazing
school teacher and she just loved doing it my sister's not a rich woman financially but she had a
very rich life of contribution she lives richly and my family was very concerned about her and little
that i know all those years when i was working hard and paying this price and see i didn't know what the
words would be. There's going to be so many dreams happen for you that you can't even imagine right
now. And this is an example of one of them. And so although I had become wealthy and I was living in a
great neighborhood, it wasn't for the house or the pool or the golf course. I hung up the phone with
my mother and I thought to myself, I need to take a walk. I need to take a walk just a while I was
so hurting for my sister. And as I was walking down this street, I realized, I won't say his
entire name, but I realized, oh my gosh, Dr. Chang lives in that house, and he helps people
with their vision and their eyes, and he created this laser that helps people, and it's an optometrist.
He lives in that house. I want to be crazy if he could help my sister. And I called him. And to fast
forward the story, that doctor saved and reversed my sister's blindness. And so my sister now is
teaching again. Thanks to Dr. Chang. Thanks to Dr. Chang. Now, she doesn't have completely perfect
vision where, you know, she's never had any medical issues, but my sister's now functioning again.
She can now see her children again. She can see me again. She can see my mom again. She can teach her
class again. She can grade papers again. She can do a lot of things. She can't do all of them,
but she can do a lot of things that she could never do before this time. And that's because
I worked hard all those years and God was preparing this dream that I'd even know that I'd walk
and knock on Dr. Chang's door who happened to be my neighbor and the only reason I lived there
is because I fought through the anxiety. I fought through the doubt. I fought through the fear. I
fought through the rejection. I fought through the isolation. I fought through all of that thinking
all these other dreams and many other dreams came true. But you could have never told me back when I
was on that road less traveled and crashing every other day and trying to, thinking about yielding
every other day that, hey, Eddie, if you stay on this road, 20 years from now, you will help cure
your sister's blindness who's not even blind yet. She's not even blind yet. It's amazing to me
that of all the things I went through, that God was preparing this dream that I couldn't even begin
to imagine at that time. Is that amazing? And now my sister sees again, because I,
Part of the reason is I went on that road, and so did Dr. Chang.
And then we met at some point in our neighborhood on the same road, on the exact same street.
I ended up on that road because all the roads I took to get there, and he lived in a house on my road, literally on my road, knocked on his door.
Do you think you can help my sister?
And he said, I might be able to.
and he did he was able to get her to see again my sister sees again because i lived on that road
and i lived on that road because of all the lefts and the rights and the yields and the ups and
the downs and the corners and the dark times and the crashes and the blowouts all of that led to
the actual physical and literal road i lived on the person who could save my sister's vision
lived at the end of that road so when i'm telling you that you don't know what dreams are
going to come true. You don't know, but I can tell you none of them come true on the road that
is well traveled. All of these micro dreams, ancillary dreams that you will not even dream of right
now. You can't even imagine or going to happen because you're willing to pay that price. You're willing to
do something great. You're willing to have a life where you will take risks where you will do something
great. And the benefactors of that will not just be you. It will be the people you love in ways you can't
imagine. But someday you'll be telling your story just like I am right now. That's just one of
thousands of stories that I could tell you that have come true, dreams that have come true, that
weren't even visions of mine because of the road I decided to choose in my life. And so I don't
want you to cheat you or your family or your loved ones or anybody else out of all these
dreams that you haven't even had yet, all these moments that you can't even imagine yet because
you yield to the other road. So please stay on the great road. When I tell you you're born to do
something great in your life with big ways and small ways. I mean it and I know it because I've
done it myself. All right, everybody, I hope you share today's show with somebody that you love,
that you believe in, and persuade them, encourage them to get on the road less traveled. It's the
path you're supposed to be on. God bless you. This is the Edmireland Shaw.
