Dean Graziosi Weekly Wisdom #313 - Your Personal Mission Statement!

Hey, everybody. Dean Graziosi, welcome to the Weekly Wisdom. Okay, this week, I have a task for you. Yeah, I have actually a pretty big chore, but I think it could be the foundation for something great. Now, as you know, every single week, I try to come at you in different angles and let me just share a lot of the stuff I teach you or share with you. Whether you want to make money in real estate, have a better relationship, have more passion, more love, better health, it really doesn't matter. The. The core of success is really the same. If you ever read my first New York Times bestseller, totally Fulfilled, you know, I wrote that whole book around the core of success because once you build the core, plug whatever you want in, and it just gets there faster, quicker, and easier. And some of it is just joy and happiness, Right? But in so many cases, and this is leading to the task I want you to do this week, in so many cases, we're driving in a car really fast, but we have no idea where we're going. We drive around like, you know, we're in the car. You're an A player, you're on the move. But we really don't know our destination. And we'll have a frustrating week, frustrating day, frustrating hour, frustrating month or year. And sometimes we don't know why, because we all, you know, we're working hard, we're trying to better our lives, but just not going anywhere or it's not going in the direction you hope that maybe the smiles come. It's a peak. You feel good for a day, and then it's down. You feel good for a week, then you go back. So what I want you to think about this week is what is your personal mission statement? Think about that. Companies have mission statements every single day. They know what their company stands for. It's like the roadmap. This little mission statement is the directions to where they hope to go and how to stay in that past, stay on the path. If a customer's mission. If a company's mission statement is that customers are our number one asset, that we're here to help people grow, learn, love, and have a passionate life, anything outside of that mission statement doesn't make sense on their journey to where they want to go. So what's your mission in life? What's your mission statement? Google the exact terminology of a mission statement. But this week, I want you to create one of your own. You know, a mission statement could be, I'm a loving, caring, passionate man that wants to see other people excel while at the same Time. I'm the best I could possibly be with having inner joy without lying to myself and be able to reach the destiny that God put me on this earth to do. I don't know what your mission statement is. I just made that up with some of my own thoughts and just thinking of you or I want to. My mission statement is to be the best mother possible, while at the same time not holding down the inner passion I have to be the best me to love, to live, to give to others and excel to a level life that I know. My parents told me I could go or wished I could go or. I don't know what your mission statement is, but here's what I want you to do this week. I want you to just. Just get a piece of paper and jot down all the things you think are your mission, your purpose, why you're here, what jives you, what gets you excited, what inspires you, what makes you feel amazing. And the opposite is push away the things that don't. Because then once you craft your mission statement, it's easier to see the things that maybe shouldn't be in your life. If you want to drive and you have a destination and you're on that path, you don't want to jot down all the back roads or the back roads that lead to dead ends, right? You don't want to go down those roads. But once you have a mission statement and you want to be fulfilled, you want to live to your fullest potential, you want to help other people, you want to have empathy, not arrogance. You want to be proud and happy for people, not envious and jealous. If you have this mission statement that you use your words and all of a sudden you realize one of your best friends that you spend all your time with, you want to be passionate and support other people with an abundant mindset. And maybe you're hanging out with somebody who's got a scarcity mindset, who's envious and jealous and says rich people are snooty and they got lucky and they don't help anybody else and the world owes us and the government owes us and we can't do anything in life because everybody's holding us back. And you have completely different thoughts. And if you know your mission, you have to do something about that. You either say, hey, love you as a friend, let's just talk about fun stuff, or let's not talk about business. Like, you have to put barriers up or slowly fade away. You know, one thing I know is through my years of evolution, I love all the friends I've had through all the years and keep in contact with a lot of them, but not personal day to day. I've lost friends throughout my journey of evolution, and not just because of money. Some of it is some friends early on got really insecure and jealous and envious when I started making money and they just imploded on their own, I didn't have to push them away. They just got mad, why are you making it? And I'm not. Well, because I'm working on myself. I'm working lots of hours, I'm trying, and you're sitting on the couch wishing it could get better. Don't blame me. But I didn't have to push them away. Then other people, what I realized, drifted away on their own. Just when I started thinking with an abundant mindset, with the glass half full, well, I saw the best in people. I saw the best in our Earth. I saw the best in our creator. I just, I see the best in things. And when you give somebody go, oh, you're insane. You're a dreamer. I'm a realist. This is crap, right? Those people couldn't handle that either, and they evolved out of the way. So I didn't mean to digress here, but when you have your mission, you get your directions, you get your path, you have your map. And when you stay the course, what that does is it stops this roller coaster, right? Maybe you watch a weekly wisdom, you get fired up, and then a week later you're crashed. That's because you really don't know your destination. So again this week, I want you to work on your destination. And one of those pieces is your mission. In fact, why don't we go the next couple weeks of just talking about things that can keep you focused on where you really want to go, where God, the universe, the world intended you to be, rather than the being pigeonholed into this life that you know is just off or you wouldn't be watching me. You wouldn't want to make more money, you wouldn't want more passion, love, you know, if you want it. I just want you to know it's, it's, it's attainable by every single person watching. So let's, let's, let's work on that core. If you've been with me for years, I love having you here. That's your exercise, your personal mission statement. And if you're new, thanks for being here.
