You will have an illogical life when you master the way you think. Join me, your host Pete Taylor, in this short and punchy episode I talked through going beyond being average and the levels of courage and fear facing it requires. If you haven't watched my 20 minute training on how we unlock a guy's psychological constraints so you can have an illogical life, that's linked below. Here's the thing to book to go beyond average, there needs to be a commitment.
There needs to be a commitment, a decision. And it is literally a decision. It is a choice to go. I'm going to change this. I'm I'm going to fucking live at an extremely powerful life, an extremely embodied life, and I will have the conviction in doing so. It's about it's like, even when it comes to money, you think about money like the amount of money you make. The amount of money you make isn't actually isn't down to the the strategy of the career move or the strategy of the funnel of
the OR the strategy of whatever. It is all down to who you are. It is all down to who you're being. Absolutely. It's who you are, not what you do. This is who you are, not what you do. It's the same in your relationships. You want that 10 out of 10 relationship. You want a 10 out of 10 body the illogical way. It is who you are, not what you do. The what comes from The Who, the how comes from The Who. It is all about who you are.
And then and to really commit to that, it is absolutely about taking radical responsibility. It's absolutely about taking 100% ownership as to a where you are right now. Take a look at your bank balance. Take a look at your body, take a look in the mirror, take a look at yourself mentally, take a look at where you are professionally. And it's about taking radical responsibility, about the exact position as to where you are now
and then. It's about taking radical responsibility and complete ownership of who you need to become to lead a logical life, to go beyond the average. It is not about the strategy. It is all about The Who and it's all about how you show up. If you if you run an online business, this is absolutely how you show up online. Apps are freaking lutely how you show up online. If people buy from you online, this is all about who you are being online. People buy from your content.
You can don't run online business, but you have a you have a career and you're looking to progress that career. This is absolutely about who you are showing up day-to-day to day-to-day to day, moments and moments, a moment, week to week, month to month, Absolutely who you're showing up if. If you're showing, if you are walking through life in an average way, letting life's challenges and chaoses and whatever get in your way, then that's all you'll ever be is the
average. The guys that lead the illogical lives, they have absolute resilience when shit does hit the fan, when they are faced with fear, they have resilience there. And the bigger your life, the bigger the fears. The fear never goes, it's always there. But you need to ask yourself, is that actually, am I feeling enough fear right now? Is there enough fear around me? Because if there isn't, maybe you're not. Maybe you're not pushing your barriers. Where is the fear right now?
Is it present or is it not and it's and it's the fears that you have, Are they mediocre or do they need to be bigger? Because this is a commitment to really leading into this life and knowing that the fear will always freaking be there. But it's up to you whether you choose the small ones or the big ones, guys that lead illogical lives, guys that go beyond the average. They handle problems average people can't and you handle different levels of fear.
So think about how you think about how you are handling your problems in your life right now. Are they are they, are they average problems? Take account of that, take responsibility of it. Go freaking out. Actually, the way I am showing up in some some areas of my life is pretty average. And if I want to lead this illogical, lead this bigger and better life, then I've got to let go of that and, and really step up. And ultimately it is, it is about raising your standards.
It's about raising your standards of your problems. Aren't they big enough? And for the guys that want to earn more money, let's just say you're at 10 KA month right now or you, or you're at 20 KA month and you're like, oh, I want to, I want to go from 10K to 20 Ki, want to go from 20K to 30K or, or 5K to 10K. Your mission in life needs to be so freaking big. The your income is unfathomable. You just, you would have no idea about the income.
It's not about how you go from 5:00 to 10:00 or 10:00 to 20 or 20 to 40 or 40 to 80. It's not, it's not about that that doesn't come. It income jumps don't come logically. They don't go 5 to 1010 to 15, 15 to 20. They do not do that. If you are thinking that way, you're thinking in the wrong way. How am I going to go from 5:00 to 10K? No, it's the wrong way to think.
It doesn't go in a logical way because when you become the man that is freaking illogical, the man that is leading a bigger life, you, it'll jump irrationally. It will just get bigger because that's who you are. This is the same in every walk of life. This is the same in your relationship. It's the same in your health. It's the same in your career. It doesn't. You don't. Average beings make logical jumps.
Average people think about how to get from 5:00 to 10:10 to 1515 to 20. It is not about that. And with and with money, this is a big thing for a lot of guys. It's this is absolutely about cultivating a freaking strong relationship with money. Where are you burying your head in the sand when it comes to money? Where are you ignoring the money because money is important? It's a resource for freedom. It's a resource for doing greatness and in the world to become beyond average.
This is about who, not what, not how. This is about the relationship with yourself and how much you trust yourself. This is this is actually about your commitment to not just joining the heroic man or the awakened man. I'm going to do 3 months or 12 months or 12 weeks or six weeks or wherever the fuck. It is not about that. This is about a long term commitment to your continued personal development because
this journey never stops. The journey of personal development never stops because once you reach one level, there are 1000 other levels above that and beyond. It's the commitment to long term mentorship. It's the commitment to go. And I want to lead in a logical life. I want to big a life. Who has that life and who can mentor me? Who who can help me get there? What do they know that I don't know? How can I invest in myself and my own personal growth to get there?
And in doing so, your careers will grow, your businesses will grow, your relationships will grow, everything around you will grow. When you make a commitment to to and a decision to leading a bigger life and a long term commitment to your own personal development and personal growth. I can tell you there's been times where I have made large investments in myself and I'm like, fucking hell, this is big.
This is like I'm just dropping like another 20,000 on some on on another mentor nine last year. I must I think I'd done over 100,000 and that was a lot. There was like I was like sneaky. Now this is this is big for me to be doing this. This is this put the IT put the fear on me.
It absolutely put the fear on me, but I also but maybe take it yes, later, baby I I also knew that I have to make these illogical jumps permit permit for me to that commitment to grow and to get past my fear barriers and to step into other paradigms that I that I'm just not aware of right now. I've got to make those commitments. I have to make those jumps. I have to make those investments in myself that fucking scare me a little bit.
Most people want illogical results, but they're not being they're not being an illogical human being. Most people want illogical results. Are you expecting illogical results? Are you expecting these big, beautiful, audacious results? But then aren't being the man that aren't being the aren't being the illogical human being. Is that you? Is is today the same as yesterday and the same as the day before and the day before that?
It was a commitment from you to really change who you're being. How do you make more money? It's a choice. How do you have a thriving relationship? It's a choice. How do you lead a life of purpose and passion? It is a choice. This is it. You choose to become non average. That is the secret. It's not about what or how, it's about who. Have a great day, have a great week. You're part of this group. Become beyond average. I'm not here to be mediocre. There we go team short and
