Dean Graziosi warns that being "good enough" in relationships, jobs, and business traps you from reaching greatness. Clear failures force change, but complacency doesn't. Raise your standards, shift your habits and beliefs, and take action toward what you actually want.
Hey, everybody. Dean Graziosi, welcome to the weekly wisdom. Today I want to talk about success traps. I'm going to make it short and sweet. Here's the thing. When you think you're somewhat successful, it is so much harder to get out of it. When life is good, when it's okay, when you can get by, that's when a lot of times we don't make a move. You see, when something fails miserably, when the relationship has failed miserably, it's easy to change, to make it better or to have to end it. If a business fails miserably, you tried and it failed, you move away, you try something new. If you get fired, if you want to call it failure, you have to make a move. But here's the success trap. When the relationship's okay, there's no passion, there's no love, but maybe there's a little love, there's respect, but it's good enough. A lot of people have tough relationships. When your job almost pays the bills, when you're almost happy and you look around and go, well, a lot of people are out of work, a lot of people are a lot worse off than me. I'm okay here. When you have a business that is running you and you're not running it, but you're still self employed and you kind of pay your bills, but you're not seeing your kids as much as you like, but a lot of people don't see their kids. That is what I'm talking about today, guys. The heck with good. We all have the opportunity for greatness now. If you're going through a tough time in life, you might be going, Dean, you're always so optimistic. I can't have great. Yes, you can. I've been around long enough. I've touched the lives of millions of people around the world. I've met enough of my students that have come from hell and back, have come from the hardest circumstances in the world when they found a way to not settle for okay, not settle for good, to raise their standards, they can bust out of that success trap and find a way to take their life to that next level. Guys, I will come on this video screen. I will create a video for you every single week for the rest of my life if I need to. And every week share a different message that gets you disturbed in action is what's going to keep you where you are. Listen, if your life is. If you see glimpses of a better life, if you can imagine a better life, if you see a better life, through other people. The opportunity for you to live it is there. And I'll pound from. I'll scream from mountaintops. I'll do a video every single week. I'll do whatever it takes to show you that if you can make tiny shifts in your habits and your beliefs, if you will raise your standards, if you will not settle for okay. If you want to realize that you can live with passion and intimacy and love and success, abundance and prosperity if you'll just believe it and take an action today, let's get you out of a success trap or get you out of status quo and get you on that journey, on that path to the next level. What in your life right now is okay and you're ignoring it. It's time to get disturbed. It's time to realize there's more. It's time to take action and use the strategies that you have at hand that we talk about in these weekly wisdoms we talk about in my books and my courses and maybe some of the things you already know. It's time to take action. Thanks so much for watching. The short and sweet message I have for today is don't get caught with being okay. Don't get caught in even success traps. It's time for you to take the journey and start those first steps to that next level of life.
