You want to know the number one things you need more for? Health, happiness, success, abundance, Joy, progress. In 2021 you have to question whether or not you are practicing habits that lead to long term success, well being and positive relationships. Mental, emotional or spiritual energy. It's three primary things for me. Three primary things. If you study my work, you know this number one high level intention for each day. Intention for me, not about the to do list. Intention for life. So my live love matter.
Intention, right.
I'm intentional about my life, my purpose and what I'm trying to do each day. I don't always get it right. I'm just trying. Second, you all know bring the joy. I ask how do I bring joy into this? How do I make this more joyful? It's part of the reason I started Growth Day I love coaching. I'm going to love it. Doing it more with my friends. Bring them all in. This is going to be awesome. I get to work on the weekly now with the world's best personal development coaches. That is joy for me. Awesome. Growth day. Sweet, right? So intention, then bringing joy. And third, this is important for everyone to hear. If you studied my work, honor the struggle. When you have struggle and you will and we do, it's not about being mad at the struggle, bemoaning the struggle.
Or hating the struggle, it's honoring it.
Bringing honor to struggle. Says, I recognize this struggle has been put before me as a challenge. I don't like the challenge. I don't want to embrace it and kiss it. No, no, no. I don't need you to embrace the challenge. I might not. I'm fine if you don't want to hug your challenges. I don't like a lot of my challenges. I want to kick them in the face, not embrace them. But I honor the demand of them. I honor that the struggle has been put before me as a challenge of my character and my capability. Oh, I don't like this. It's a challenge or I don't like this. But this has been put before me for me to find access to somebody or an idea or a new experience that wouldn't exist without that struggle or that challenge. So for me, it's a process of honoring and trusting. For me as a spiritual person, I just feel like the universe lined that up, wasn't part of my plans. Universe is lined it up and it's asking me to be on a heroic journey and deal with it from my highest and best self. How would my highest and best self deal with this stressor with this challenge, with this difficulty, with this inconvenience? And for those who have been in the growth day community or our coaching programs in the past, you know where that leads. It leads the hardest thing, but maybe the best thing that keeps me on my A game. I call it the role model mindset. I talked about it all of 2020. I spoke about it the first week of March. In 2020, if you can have a role model mindset. The role model mindset says, I'm going to demand of myself because other people are watching the kids see how I show up, my community see how I show up. You are influencing other people. So be intentional and thoughtful and gracious about how you impact other people.

The role model mindset says I want to have a positive influence and impact in the world. And so I'm going to quiet down the lesser gossipy, crappy sides of me because they'll always be there, but they don't win the day. Those petty parts of you are less quiet than the purposeful sides of you. The petty, egoic, narcissistic, silly, rude, hate driven part of you. That dark side in the negative light which we'll talk about, the stuff that we don't like about ourselves, that can be there. But what wins the attitude, what wins the relationship. That's our role model mindset. I'm going to be great for other people, not just for me. I'm going to be great for other people because I can have that ripple effect. People said, well, Brendan, why are you stopping hpx, coaching your coaching thing and starting Growth Day? I said, oh well, simple. Well, I'll take the coaching member. So if you're an hpx, you're in Growth Day too, so you're automatically brought in. So you get all these new people inclusive as part of the program. You're not paying anything more. But I'm taking my coaching community bringing in because I thought I want to have an even greater ripple effect and to have a greater ripple effect. There's parts of my community I'm not qualified to talk to. I'm not a mom with children. I'm not black, I'm not from this country. I'm not. There are people all around the world who are unbelievable coaches, who are my friends. I want to bring them to you. So that ripple effect, that's that role model mindset. See, it'd be easy for me to say, I'm super successful at this. I'm going to build it all. I'm going to be a mogul. It's my empire. ARR. No. It's like, how do I have an even greater ripple effect of impact? Guess what? I need more people from diverse experiences like Jamie Karn Lima. She built a billion dollar company. I don't know how to advise you to do that yet. Mine hasn't unicorned you. Follow? It's like I can't share like Anthony can about going through foster care. I didn't go through foster care. I don't know that journey. I don't know that I'm not David Bach. I haven't written all these personal finance and wealth books for people all these years. So see my ideal here, when you're a role model, you immediately seek things outside of yourself to make a greater impact. You care about the positive influence. It's what I asked for earlier. Be a leader. Leaders, go join growth day right now. Go join growth day. Growthday.com, be a leader. Be around leaders, listen to them, study them, even if they're casually talking. Oh, that's their mindset. Oh, that's a routine. Oh, that was a distinction when they had hardship. Oh, because you're not done growing. You need more growth days. Whatever that is for you. A day where you finish the day and you go, I crushed it today. That is a growth day. A day where you just flowed. I mean, it was freedom, it was authenticity, it was spontaneity. It was like magic. It was like you were outside yourself. It was just like, so smooth. That was a growth day. Repaired a relationship with your child, that was a growth day. You said you were going to show up and get that task done. You got it done. You were congruent with who you were. That was a growth day. You need more growth days. That's why we started the brand. We need more growth days. If we're going to change the world and we need to grow together, we need to get better at growing together versus achieving alone. This is why we have such division in our cultures, is because the silo ness of I'll achieve for me, I'll do it alone has left so many people alone, forgotten, neglected, unspoken for. We've got to get better as a global community to grow together.
