SUMMARY:
--------------------
If you raise your standards in these 5 areas, you dramatically improve your life:
1. Health. Have you ever said, "This is going to be the year I get in the best health of my life"? If not, this is the year to do it. Improve your health and becoming happier and more energized and effective happens almost automatically. Raise your standards on how much sleep you get and how well you eat and take care of your body.
2. Focus. Distraction is stealing our lives. Get more focused on what you desire in this hour, this day, this life. Bring your awareness to this moment and what you want to be doing and experiencing now. That will help you be more conscious and more easily spot distractions.
3. Boldness. Where you are in life right now is a direct reflection of how bold you've been up to this point. How boldly do you share yourself, your ideas, your needs and dreams with the world? How courageous have you been to fight after you've fallen down. Demand of yourself to be more bold and you'll feel more confident and influential over time.
4. Joy. Do you expect that you're going to have fun today and in life? Better yet, do you demand of yourself to be the person who brings the joy, who has fun and helps others have fun no matter what? Joy is a choice not a happenstance blessing. Bring the joy!
5. Kindness. People are so driven and distracted that they've often lost the awareness to be kind to others. They might call themselves compassionate, but they are not kind. Kindness is compassion activated - you actually show you care through your actions.Raising your standard here will help you reach higher levels of happiness, service, and humanity.

The number one rule to raise your standards is to stay away from anyone with lower standards than yourself. People will drag you down to their level every. single. time.

[@BlackCulturalPreservation2023]

RAISING STANDARDS IN YOUR: 1. HEALTH, 2. FOCUS, 3. BOLDNESS/COURAGEOUSNESS, LETTING IT OUT (YOUR COURAGE/BOLDNESS/DRIVE MORE), 4. JOY, 5. BE KIND (& PATIENT W/ PEOPLE)

[@sf5823]

1) Health 2) Focus - get your addiction for distraction under control 3) Couragessness, be bold and keep trusting and trying. Trust and have courage to follow your heart. 4) Bring and Experience joy 5) Demonstrate kindness You know I sat beside my nanan as she was dying and I have to say she was such a big character, she was funny, when grandad does she took up ballroom dancing @ 70 years old she was riding on the back of a motorbike, she was awesome and that's how I want to live!

Hi Brendon !! I recently came across your videos through my 17 month old son who started using my iPhone for his rhymes on KZbin and he accidentally clicked on ur video and started crying as his favorite rhymes were not coming, at that point of time i dint realize that these videos will become favorite rhymes for me.Thank you.Great job Brendon!!!your words really brought an huge difference in me👍👍👍and last but not least thanku.. To my LO who brought me to this channel.. Will definitely share this to him , when he grows elder....

[@MaxKing]

If you don't sleep , you don't feel good, If you don't feel good you can't perform 100% , but we keep forgetting it!

[@benalexender3046]

[@vesnastankovic7542]

It's not very often I'm impressed however watching this certainly caused me to say wow I need to ask - did you realise there is missing part of the law of attraction? students all over this planet are living the lives of their dreams because they found the missing secret? I found out about this missing secret and manifest abundance, wealth, health, love and more from a resource called Reality crusher secret. This secret will literally force the universe to provide you with everything you'll need for creating a better life... take a look now look for Reality Crusher Secret on google

[@ajnasu5099]

It's not very often im impressed however watching this certainly would make anyone think I need to ask - do viewers know there is a hole in the law of attraction? people around the world are achieving their dreams because they found the missing secret? I found out about this missing ingredient and manifest abundance, wealth, health, love and more from reading resource called Reality crusher secret. This secret will literally force the universe to provide you with all the tools that you'll need for creating a better life... take a look now just google for Reality crusher secret

[@7Mushrooms7]

I rarely like the "personal development", "motivators", etc videos but I just watched this video (my first of you) and I really liked it because it's realistic and true.

[@senorsanchez605]

Your videos have become a daily night process for me, I watch one video every night to compare to the day I had, then seeing how could I have made it even better, you really end my day off in a positive way

[@jasperdj]

+Senor Sanchez That is an amazing habit to apply. Thanks!

I watch this video every night! It help me to improve myself.

[@ainakamal790]

Same!! I watch one video every night too :) to keep myself motivated!

[@suzettebrown9589]

This is a good idea

[@extraordinary_woman]

That is a really good method…

[@RideOrDieCouplescom]

1. Health (eat, sleep, mindfulness) 2. Focus (addiction for distraction) 3. Be more Bold & Courageous 4. Joy (expect it. demand it of yourself. bring it) 5. Be more kind to others (intentional)

[@berryfairy68]

Everything he said is so true... Whenever I speak to anyone lately their attention span is non existent and kindness is so desperately needed in today's world... Forget Facebook and be nice to the person right in front of you.

[@AC_17]

1) Health - 2) Focus in the now (Vs. addiction to distraction) 3) Boldness. Courage 4) Joy - 5) Kindness

[@Brisbae]

You are doing a really great job Brendan, you're helping me and million others improve our lives and I really look up to you. I truly hope you grow even bigger than you are, because literally everybody on this Earth could benefit from your work.

[@Newfuturebuilder]

These are awesome points. I always try to raise the bar. Need to increase my sleep, my courage in approaching more people, my joy , and find more ways to show even more people kindness!

[@edwardmccalip7490]

I am always Blessed to get these messages of Fire and encouragement when I need to shift to the next level. Thank you Brendan

[@kindredspirit6654]

I agree - a good structure is to put ' the body first ' and fit all else between these priorities.

[@DeejayLiam]

Love this Brendon. Your teachings give me joy and strength to begin each new day with renewed energy.

[@naimakhaleeq8523]

The best thing about your videos is that you define the problem as a behavioral fault not as a personal failure. You give people hope ♡ man, you must have heard it many times but honestly, you got me my spark back. You kicked-ass!

What a joy to hear your voice and the words of wisdom, this is a video for all to see. Kindness has faded in society very much today. Even for thought who walk the street with

[@catchingmybreath]

Your videos have always been so helpful and educational. Loved all of it especially when Kindness was well explained. Much needed.

You're great! I watch you consistently I appreciate the message you give. Thank you for helping me change my thinking

[@mrawrawk]

Did he just say, "Why am I naked?" lol, i'm dead.

[@BeOutstanding]

Great Content Thank You Brendon Health Goals Focus Higher boldness n courage Enjoy n have fun Bring joy Being kind n doing something for others

[@SydneyTeagarden]

Wonderful points about creating a better life which I've realized is contagious- as you improve and raise yourself up, those around you end up being affected in a positive way. One very simple thing I learned as a child- I was being pouty, complaining that I was "bored", a favorite word as a kid. And I was asked point blank- *"Well are you bored or are you boring?"* To this day, if I even BEGIN to utter a complaint about being bored- I stop, reassess things and change what I'm doing (or find something to do). I can't recall who asked me that question, as I was a very young child, but it has changed how I behave throughout my entire life and I hope perhaps someone here might gain some insight and enjoyment by asking themselves the same question should they ever become "bored." xoxo

[@JodiAmanda]

These five standards inspired me lots! Particularly boldness, joy, and kindness! Thank you :D

[@suzpeden]

Thanks Brendan, just the reminder and inspiration I needed.

[@VikrantDuttChaudhary]

For all the research I have done over the years....everything you say is correct. Great stuff!

outstanding, thanks Brandon. it is a life changing gold nuggets of thought.

[@InCoinQuest]

Great message Brendon !! Love it !!!

[@haseenae7510]

I was really struggling with my self-confidence. The way I changed this is through trying to convince myself that I can do everything and making small things on my personal progress. Every little change you achieve will boost your confidence. Kind of a virtuous circle! The one thing that really helped me to do so was Forwago and I am so thankful because I found about it.

[@InCoinQuest]

Great message Brendon !!! Love it !!!!!

[@Shrijineha]

Lovely video Brendon. Thanks.

[@laurab9867]

"...we've gotten into a culture that is very dismissive, very judgmental, very poisonous in its ridicule..." I live in the US going on 47 years; and no offense, I've always had a pet peeve about this - what I saw as an "American thing". It's a societal attitude that came from somewhere... But I feel validated and breathe a sigh of relief. Thank you, Brendon. I vow to you with enormous respect and admiration.

[@tremblaycallum783]

I'm reporting you to the government for not being patriotic enough

[@laurab9867]

LOL, that´s a good one. Just to clarify, I just don´t like when people are unnecessarily critical and ridicule others all the time. Children are the most affected by that.

[@tremblaycallum783]

Laura B How can you get better if you aren't judged tougher?

[@ArtisticalCompassion]

thank you for telling this ,cause I honstly never found a way to be better with myself an to other ,you have opened my eyes
