Hero365: Hero Training 101 (The Manifesto)

Hey, guys, this is Brian. Haven't done a video in a while, as you may have noticed. I've been super busy doing a lot of other stuff that I cannot wait to share this morning. It's bright and early, about 5am Got up before, did my meditation, a little yoga, and started journaling. And the first question I asked myself this morning was, what will I do to serve heroically as a teacher in 2017? I'm stepping more into the social entrepreneur role, which is part of what I'll be sharing soon. But for 2017, my big theme for our work together is going to be Hero Training 101. I think the world needs heroes more than ever, and it is time. So anyway, as part of that, what I'm going to do is a video series. I'm going to call it Hero365, where every day I kind of flip on my iPhone and just do a quick video kind of behind the scenes or a big idea that I'm learning or whatever. So whenever I ask myself, when should I start? The answer is always now. Hence, turned on the phone and I want to share with you the promo script, kind of the little manifesto that I wrote for a video that we're going to record tomorrow in the studio just to kick off the process. So here we go. Hero training 101. Do you know what the word hero means in ancient Greek? The word heroes, which is spelled with a cool line over the e, and the O meant protector. Not killer of bad guys or super strong tough guy, but protector. A hero has strength for two the hero's secret weapon, Love, compassion, empathy. A hero cares. And a hero is willing to do the work necessary to be strong enough to to serve and to protect the people and community and country she loves. Our world needs heroes today more than ever before. That's why I'm putting every single ounce of my energy into something we're calling Hero Training 101. We're going to help you create the greatest year of your life. And in the process, help you create heroic mastery of every facet of your life. We'll start by figuring out what you're here to do. How will you be heroic? What bold steps will you take to give your greatest gifts in greatest service to the world? Who must you become to make that vision a reality? We'll figure out your highest calling and then challenge you to step up and create the strength to make that dream a reality. We'll start with your fundamentals. Absolutely. Dialing in your nutrition, your movement, your sleep, and your ability to Focus your mind, putting your attention where you want, when you want, for how long you want. The skill that psychologists tell us is the most important attribute and of the greatest and happiest among us. We'll master the process of setting and achieving goals, building habits and using your willpower wisely. Cultivating humble yet heroic confidence. Mastering the process of getting stuff done while conquering any procrastination, anxiety or depression. We'll step into our full leadership potential and master the process of using business as a force for heroic good. And most importantly, we'll focus on love. Not just for a few people with whom we're close, but for everyone and all of life. Remembering that the secret weapon of the true hero is love. Fully embodied and expressed in every micro moment of our lives as we dig deep and commit to most fully giving ourselves to our families, communities, countries and world. Hero training 101. It's time. That is what's firing me up these days. We will soon have optimized me. Hero ready to go. And basically all the work that I've done to date with. We have I think like 25 optimal living 101 classes. That's kind of like the basic stuff. And this next year we're going to kind of do the advanced stuff kind of me fully intense. What are you here to do? Let's go do it. Revisiting a lot of the same themes but from a higher level. We've got a lot of exciting things planned for next year. So anyway, quick video. Say hi again. I've missed you. Hope you're doing great. Can't wait to make 2017 the greatest year of our lives and tap into our highest potential and truly step into that opportunity to serve profoundly as heroes.
