Chapters
You must reclaim your life's agenda. You got to reclaim your life's agenda. Please. If you have not yet given yourself the gift of reading the motivation manifesto, this is declaration number one. I always try to teach this. Declaration number one. The number one declaration of our lives is to reclaim our life. Reclaim our life from other people's expectations. Reclaim our life from all these distractions. Reclaim our life. When we took the wrong road, we did something we knew we weren't supposed to do. We did something we don't care about. We got stuck in an opportunity that isn't really right for us. Reclaiming it means changing direction. Reclaiming it means saying sorry. I know that's important to you. It's not important to me now. Reclaiming it means not 30 minutes browsing stuff that doesn't add value or train you for excellence in mastery. People say, well, Brendan, don't you consume social media? I go, yeah, I consume social media from influencers who are teaching me to be a better man. That's 100% of my social media consumption. I have no tags of cats. I have no. That sounded flippant. My wife has tags of cats. Sorry, honey. I have no. I don't follow race cars and things and sweat. I don't follow any brands. The only social media I do is consuming social media from people who are giving me ideas how to live a better life. Zero. That's it. That is how for me, I stay on my A game because social media can steal you. And now you're living to other people's expectations or you're trying to have that or that. Listen, I think reclaiming your life agenda is about a couple things and I want to recap them. I just said them too fast. Number one, it's reclaiming it from other people's expectations. Are you doing what you're doing because somebody else told you to but you don't love it? Are you doing what you're doing to serve somebody who isn't even aware or grateful to your service? Are you working a day doing a job that you don't even love and you haven't told your boss? I'd rather do this thing than that thing? Did you start a business because you were passionate about it one time but now you realize that's not my thing, but you're too embarrassed to quit because, well, Brendon, people know me for that, so I have to do that. That's what I'm known for. No one knows you. There's 7 billion people on the planet. Every one of you can make a pivot right now, it's 2020. Why would you not make a pivot on January 1st? This is your time to pivot. Do you have clients who suck? And you're like, oh, my God, I'm still working for this client who sucks after five years, this person still sucks, and I'm still taking money from them. Reclaim that. Stop giving your agenda, your time, your energy, your effort, your. Your life's thrust to things that you are not passionate about, that don't align with your purpose, that don't bring you to life or develop you, period. That's taking your life back. It's taking the reins back. You know, sometimes, depending on how advanced the audience is, when I teach this primary aspiration, I say that there's one overarching thing about even all of this, and it's this word and command. It's taking back command of our day, of our life. It's putting you back in control of the reins and yanking those back and saying, I'm in command. I'm going to take command back of my life. No longer am I going to hand over control to all these wannabes, to all this social media, to this person who's a jerk. Nope, my life again. And you know what? If you need to break some toes, do it gently, but move on. Some of you, it's time to quit something. And reclaiming your life's agenda means you quit, means you leave, means you move. Some of you, reclaiming your life agenda means starting something on the side to do something you're more passionate about. Now. But I'm here to tell you, if you fill out this high performance planner all year long, and I come and I look at it, and. And I can't tell that you love your life. You're living somebody else's agenda. Don't just fill in the blanks. Use this to build your life, your life, no one else's. And I think a big part of self mastery is having the guts to make some decisions. Right now, you got to make some real decisions in your career. You got to make some real decisions in your marriage or the relationships that you have. You gotta make some real decisions about how you're gonna live your life, where you're gonna live, how you're gonna spend your time, your day. That's big stuff. That's reclaiming your life's agenda, because your life's agenda is adding to something. Every day's time management is leading to an event horizon, right? All of it's gonna lead to a certain type of character, of who you are, a certain quality of relationships, a certain quality of career. I'm telling you, yank the reins back, Be ferocious about it in 20 again. I mean, get fired up about it. Like, if you've been just going through the motions, it's because you're going through somebody else's motions. Got it? If you feel like life is humdrum, it's because you're living somebody else's life and it feels humdrum. You got to steal back the reins and sometimes you got to grab the reins from somebody else and yank them back and you got to take control of that cart again. It's time to take command of your life.
