"Most of us Willing Participants in our OWN Distraction" | Ed Mylett

Are you a willing participant in your own distraction? Turn Distraction into Success!
YOU ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU THINK YOU ARE! If you are LASER FOCUSED on your dreams, you can become an EXPERT at anything… Even accomplishing your dreams!
The reason so many people NEVER reach their full potential is that they never become fully FOCUSED on their goals. They keep allowing DISTRACTIONS to get in the way!
There are ALL KINDS OF DISTRACTIONS in the world. They live in your televisions, on your phone, on your computers and become a CONVENIENT ESCAPE from the WORK you must put in to WIN!
Are you letting DISTRACTIONS get in the way of your FOCUS??? Your DREAMS? Your FAMILY? Have you been able to stay LASER FOCUSED and obsessive about your dreams or an EXTENDED period of time? A year? 2 years? 5 years? THAT is the difference that sets apart elite performers.
Your obsession with these DISTRACTIONS is a CONVENIENT ESCAPE that allows you to focus on things that DON’T MATTER! Are you obsessed with a tv show or a reality star? Are you obsessed with politics or a sports team? NONE of these things affect you and do NOT contribute to you WINNING!
I promise you this, the price you will pay, the suffering you will go through to make your dream come true is INFINITELY smaller than the price you will pay if you never do! YOU WILL PAY FOR THAT YOUR WHOLE LIFE!
This episode will teach you how to IDENTIFY the distractions in your life, ELIMINATE them and REPROGRAM your MIND with my LONG-TERM RECIPE FOR WINNING!
Your OBSESSIONS become your POSSESSIONS! Get OBSESSED with WINNING and FORGET your DISTRACTIONS! #MAXOUT

What's 1 Distraction you're going to GIVE UP TODAY? EVERYONE, respond back to someones comment and give advice on how they can overcome that distraction!

[@josiahjohnson1645]

@EdMylett The nagging little voice in my head that says I cannot do something - the self doubt. The more i keep my promises to myself and the more my external actions line up with my internal actions, the quieter that voice gets! Anything else that would improve me or help me conquer this? #MaxOut #buildselfconfidence #keepingpromisestomyself

[@jimgoldfuss525]

@@LRG2019 Love it! I do the same thing - I clean. It makes me feel like I am doing something productive (which it is), but in actuality it is holding me back from getting down to the computer and sending out inquiries to speak, creating a video post or blog, etc... and all the things I should be doing to get to my goal. I used to make excuses all the time. Pick them off one at a time, step by step.

[@jimgoldfuss525]

@@josiahjohnson1645 That nagging little voice can be quite destructive. I lived with that voice (in the form of anxiety and depression) for almost 40 years before I came to realize it and became aware of just how destructive and sabotaging it was. Thomas Edison said "If we all did the things we are perfectly capable of doing; we would literally astonish ourselves". I took mindful meditation classes to learn to control the inner voice. After that, just learn to take steps that get you out of your comfort zone (or at least push the limits and expand it). Identify specifically something you want (not the world, something smaller and more manageable) and then determine the first step to get you there - and take that step. Just take the step, you will figure out the rest once you move.

[@nikolayivanov4190]

Today I will give up the voice saying "I'm not good enough to be on the top". I have been through depression, a suicide attempt, anxiety, insecurity, fear, pain, all of it. Before, people would abandon me because I'm not good enough. Today, I remove people from my life because they distract me. I want my pain to be the stepping stone for people who are suffering, just like I used to suffer. You are one of the people I truly resonate with and hope to be around one day. Like you said on the interview with Tom Bilyeu where I first saw you - when you're around great people, they adjust your mental thermostat. Thank You, Ed! You have changed my life without even knowing me :)

[@frankvilla-heroinsurvivora3270]

Anxiety! I recently discovered a pattern that I do which is create anxiety. I recently started smoking cigarettes and what I discovered was anxiety. I have suffered traumas literally before I was born as my mother suffered large amounts of domestic violence while pregnant. So as my life gets calm or so called I usually would self sabotage to create anxiety. My nervous system has been geared to be hypervigilant so I got myself off heroin I definitely can get myself off cigarettes. I am in the best shape in my life and I want to push to the next level. Exercise is one of the best tools for neuroplasticity.

[@XxSalinasFinestxX]

@@Pimpishone Just a question, what do you mean by "Exercise is Great for Everything?" I can see what you mean by that and I can see some benefits, like using exercise as a good habit and maintaining a healthy body ( in Outwitting The Devil by Napoleon Hill he says that a unhealthy body doesn't produce great results and can't function the same as a healthy body) But can you go into more detail about how "Exercise is Great For Everything?"

[@KarolynAndrea]

THIS!! EVERYTHING you talked about is exactly what has been going on in my head. But I never talk about it because people will ridicule me and I don’t even want to deal with it. I don’t watch the news. I hardly watch TV (maybe an hour per week). I’ve been more focused on my goals so I don’t have time for anything else. People think I’m weird. I think I’m focused. I am going to dedicate only 15-20 min a day to social media, posting to my business page and keeping in touch with friends because my phone can be a distraction. THANK YOU for saying everything I’m thinking. As always, you’re the best start to my day. You rock Ed!

Have you created a "Vision Board" as yet since you're living and developing your own personal realm this would be great being obsessed with your goals is key.

[@thecloud9show]

Very sincere Ed Mylett. I have been successful, top 5%, in corporate America-ugh. Title means nothing. They are not saluting you. You are forgotten a week or less after you leave. Where I struggle is in finding fulfillment. My soul loves to speak like you, to do broadcast life coaching, to entertain, educate & empower so I walked away and started individual exec coaching and life coaching and changed lives but it was like wrangling cats. I went from $250K+ to $47K. As a single dad with full custody of a 15yo little girl I come 2nd, I could not make enough money to stay on the path and care for her and now back listening to the corporate baloney to have benefits and care for her but now working it as a side hustle. It isn’t easy at 60yo. Embracing the suffering is not easy. I get distracted because I do not like the corporate job and I welcome distraction. I hope to not die with my greatest regret, not swinging for the fence, not leaving my love and my wisdom and making people smile as my legacy. Thanks for this free insight.

[@MYLIFETHROUGHALENS1978]

EdMylett what totally resonated with me was reminding myself why all the people I surround myself with at the top of their game, find them self there... they focus on their game plan with zfg to any of life’s disruptions. Sir. Let me share this with you... the first video I watched after I tried to end my life was your interview on impact theory. I hit exhaustion, I had lost my dearest friend to cancer, my beautiful wife and I lived past each other, I had a board of directors squeezing every breath out of me and my business, but beside all those terrible distractions ... the worst of them all was loosing my self confidence. 9 months ago to this date, when I watched an interview I dissected to pieces, with your power words that still resonate with me... Bella’s wedding, Bella’s wedding... YOU at that moment reminded me who the hell I am... why I created music platforms, why my child will never have to ever go through what I went through as a kid, why I’ll never drop the ball, why I keep my word. I will find a way in person to one day soon shake your hand in person, look you straight in the eye and thank you from the bottom of my now healing heart. You bloody better keep doing this till the day you blow your last breath out cause the world need voices of gratitude, empathy and brute power like yourself. My name is Eban Olivier and I commit to max out my life, because I have reason! Thank you sir. Humbly, I thank you!

Good morning brother Ed! Thank you again for this amazing content! I am laser focused on what I'm currently doing part time. I have illuminated those distraction, like not watching T.V., I stopped listening to the radio, & more importantly, I don't engage with my phone for the first hour I wake up. Those key thing's that you have taught me sir, have helped me to step out of my comfort zone and Maxout my life with my new business opportunity. It truly is an amazing feeling to know that I am rewriting my story & chasing those BIG dreams that I have! Your content always gets me fired up and wanting to do more with the new opportunity. I am distracted by the new opportunity while I'm working as a Police Officer in Houston, TX. My mind is always trying to figure out who else is out there that I can go help with my business, while being humble & evangelical about it, as well as being a humble servant of God. That is when I'm most happy as well, other than being with my 4 year old son of course. But helping others is what I love doing. Again, thank you brother Ed for this amazing pod cost.

To be completely honest with you brother Ed. All of your interviews are amazing. The interview you did with Israel Del Toro was unbelievable. That one there truly hit home for me. I can relate to him because I do have a 4 year old son, and he's all I think about & care about. He's my purpose & my why. I am definitely tired of being sick and tired with certain things in my life. I am currently changing the outcome of our situation and maxing out my life for the betterment of my son's life. The other interview you conducted with John Maxwell was also some amazing content. The golden nuggets I received from both video's were well received. Those two video's have helped me Maxout in area's of my life I never thought I could. That is also why I qualified for a certain trip & a certain event coming up next week to be able to meet you in person sir. Thank you once again brother Ed for always responding, and for making such amazing content available to all of us!

I'm so glad a man's man can get up and talk about other men who are obsessed with sports like they were playing the game themselves. That behavior is such a turn-off for me. I notice that my own distraction can be music. Certain kinds of music pull me down a rabbit hole of bad thinking. So I have to limit the amount of time I spend listening to it. So now I'm on a quest to find more positive music that can reinforce the other goals I have for myself.

Hit the nail on the head Ed. Focus on the one thing that's important to you. Gary Vee talks about going tunnel vision in this regard.

THank you for sharing!! What other topics of discussion do you think I should talk about?

[@Samsmom125]

Ed, this is one powerful video. Even though it's 2 yrs. old, I just found it. I can't tell you how much I needed to hear this. It was like you were in my head, knowing all the dark corners of my mind. I so needed to hear this, in fact, I must have listened to it 3x. God bless you, Ed for your timeless wisdom. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Thank you master!!!! Greetings from Mexico!!! I'm focus right now!

[@mariachinn2862]

Sooo true! All those distractions are the winners & the one distracted who’s always behind. It’s wanting & being intentional about our self growth that helps us focus. And who you listen to seriously matters.

[@valentinmusic]

Ed, this message is so powerful and so true, especially with today’s events in Paris with the fire at Notre Dame de Paris. It’s nothing but a distraction to the masses and an instrument to erupt fear and pandemonium. I think whoever did this to an iconic 850 year old church is either trying to prove something or to start conflict. The timing of this message couldn’t have been stronger and the legitimacy of what you say here couldn’t be more inevitable. Thank you brother 🙏🏽♥️

[@JerryRMartin]

As a 2x cancer survivor, laser focus becomes more clear. However, the laser focus is more on building relationships than building a career or bank account. During this time, I've spent my entire life focused (without the laser) and things were good, but not the best of the best. After focusing on core values and not so much the people, relationships have soared in regards to quality. Also, during this time my career has skyrocketed in comparison to where I was as well by focusing on building a foundation and not so much a very specific career or even specific person (to marry). I'm the type of person to never be satisfied and always believing in learning and growing in all aspects of life. Saying that, my laser focus has become on the core values of being the very best husband, father, and leader of the home. That laser focus will continue to be on the values and not so much the person whom I plan to marry. It looks as if I will be transitioning my career into finding a way to share my journey and proof-through-experience with how to have a quality marriage as a new career in the future. Thank God for KZbin as this is the place where I find the biggest inspiration through people I do call mentors of mine such as yourself. Thank you as always.

[@EdMylettShow]

Wow... thank you so much for being open and vulnerable and sharing that with all of us. including myself. Your story really touched my heart

[@Baltouni123]

Great post and amazing timing as always. The height of a building is directly proportional to the depth and strength of its foundation. Thank you for this. I need to forward this to my team to remind them about their own price negotiations to achieve their dreams and goals. Great stuff!!

"You winning in your life is what changes it!" Poom! That hit like a ton of bricks! Love you brother! Thanks!!!

[@marlerj001]

Excellent point to focus on the worth and not the cost. The cost is rooted in fear and loss instead of the gains. I hallucinate that you you turn it around and ask what inaction will cost and the worth of taking action. My greatest distraction is goofing off during my lunch and breaks instead of developing myself further.

[@miguelhuizar6670]

I really needed this! I have to refocus on my goals and dreams and MAXOUT! thanks for all you do

[@miguelhuizar6670]

@@EdMylettShow "Most of us being willing participants of our own distractions ". I am guilty! for the past year since 3/28/18 I decided to begin changing all aspects of my life including fitness, finance, health, and spirituality. I began by listening to tony robbins and it opened the path to finding you and everyone else you have brought on this platform. so for a year I have been soaking all the information you and others have out there; yet I haven't put any of the tips I've learned into action other than my fitness which I'm proud of the route it is going. with this video the fire has been lit under my ass again to finally make the right adjustments that I've learned from you and others in the past year to reach the success I am destined for. thank you for what you do !!

This hit so hard. I’m a writer. I’ve been working on a movie script for 3 years. I’ve had rewrites but this damn thing should’ve been done by now but I’ve allowed myself to get distracted with lots of 💩. Not anymore. Thanks Ed!

[@anaipuga7242]

I grew up in a single parent home, my mom had 2 jobs and many many things went wrong because she could not always be there physically. I’ve always been scared, and I’ve felt undeserving of greatness. I grew up in church and have a strong faith, but have still struggled with fear. This video brings tears to my eyes, this video challenges me to be better for me, for my family and my community. I will work on shifting my thoughts a directing them into serving, and building in every area. I want to WIN!!!! And I want everyone around me to be motivated and encouraged by who I am...

[@jimgoldfuss525]

[@EdMylettShow]

You are VERY welcome! Happy to put it out for you. Hopefully the words resonated with you in a deeper way. Did you have a favorite part of the video?

[@jimgoldfuss525]

EdMylett I laughed when you spoke of the sports teams- “we didn’t win, they win!”. I’m on a journey, and frequently, like everyone else, can get in my head and get distracted. I usually equate it to fear- what if this doesn’t work? What if it does? What if they don’t think I’m good enough? Etc... every so often, a good kick in the pants is good, and this gave it to me. My favorite part is also my biggest challenge- scarcity. It is the one hurdle I am still chipping away at, so your words there just inspired me to keep at it! Keep plugging away! I need to focus on me, how am I doing, what am I doing to get better, be successful, to help the most people....and stop getting distracted by “the noise”. I listened to today’s show at least 6 times now. I keep it on in the background, and each time something different pops out....again, thank you! You inspire me!!!

Ed this is just the right time. I separated myself recently from an addiction I struggled with for 8 years and I have realized how distracted I am constantly. Yesterday I recommitted to using audible to keep away from my phone and turned the notifications off for my group chat on my work phone because it is such a distraction. I have also recently acquired a few new books and have been working on finding time to focus and read. Will you talk about what enabled you to know you had what it took to trust in yourself for self employment and how to separate yourself from people and events that are not truly empowering. #maxout

[@EdMylettShow]

OUTSTANDING content #EdMylett! Used to be a sports radio junkie, especially this time of year with the NFL draft next week. So much happier and content since I shifted my commute listening to you and other high value podcasts. Turn off the radio, and turn your commute into education time. If you drive 25,000 miles per year, that's equivalent to 13 weeks of education/motivation which may be completed per year. Learn a new language, diffuse the road rage with positivity and encouragement, or swift kicks in the "focus" when needed.Thank you for an "in my face" reminder that I am the one I cheer for and support. Those players do shift teams and the "we" comment always bothered me. Nice thing about watching games, especially at home are the frequent commercials. Great time to read a book. You can actually read the book and check out the critical plays during the replays. I've knocked out 100 pages of reading during one NFL game. Baseball was made for radio, so if that's your thing, turn off the TV and turn on the radio. Can work during the broadcast and take action waiting for action on the diamond.To YOUR consistent and continuous SUCCESS!

[@brookecheney1357]

...and now I will be distracted by Instagram because I want to win something. LOL my biggest challenge is staying focused. I love learning, from Ed, Tony, Billy Gene, Russel, and more. My challenge comes when applying what they teach. I run my own business, come to the office to do client things, then realize I have some family things to deal with, or get into one part of my business, that leads me to a different part of my business. at the end of the day I have done a lot, but not necessarily what needed to get done. So that's a long way to say, I fear I am my biggest distraction.

I don’t have a team...I don’t really hang out with people as I am working from home and raising a family...coaching soccer for charity etc and all other tine spent on learning and growing...if we are the average of the 5 people we hang with then is my average 0? Ha ha ha. I never had any super successful mentors, family, friends, and just now at 48 connecting with people online...like you...that don’t make me feel like my big dreams are crazy.. I always have known I wanted more...must have more...my parents died broke....I believe broke is a disease...I believe it directly and indirectly killed them.

Awesome as always Ed. I am sure you are observing the trends, but I think you can do a simple experiment of keeping the length of these videos to 15 mins maximum. I remember one of the earlier videos I myself commented something like we want more of you, so the longer the better. And I am not able to complete your videos on time. I am skipping them, which I don't want to. So, let me know if you can run a small experiment of say next 5 videos, less than 15 minutes each. Ignore this comment if your stats and trends on viewership and subscription are suggesting otherwise 😀
