I literally thought we were going to die…
❗️NEW EPISODE ALERT! This special episode is all about seizing control and steering your life in the direction YOU choose.
Recently, a hair-raising cab ride with my daughter Bella turned into much more than a moment of heart-pounding fear; it became a profound lesson about life's unexpected turns and who's really in the driver's seat.
That ride wasn't just scary; it was a stark reminder of the chaos we invite into our lives when we let others take control.
When we finally escaped that cab, the ordeal didn't end there. The driver's next turn led to a crash - a literal collision that echoed the potential disasters we face when we surrender our power to others.
Reflecting on that day, I realized it was more than just a bad ride; it was a metaphor for life. Too often, we sit back, not questioning, not asserting, letting someone else steer our course. And where does that lead? To situations, relationships, or decisions that we never wanted, putting everything precious at risk.
In this episode, we're going deep into what it means to truly audit your thinking, to understand the emotions and fears driven by others' actions and opinions.
It's about dissecting those feelings, understanding the 'why' behind them, and most importantly, reclaiming your rightful place at the wheel of your life!
We often cruise in the passenger seat of our existence, not realizing the power we have to change lanes, to speed up, to slow down, to choose our destination. It's time to grab that wheel, to drive with purpose and intent, and to ensure that the journey of life is one that YOU dictate.
Don't let your life be a series of reckless rides, where the cost is too high, and the risks too great. Tune in, take control, and transform your journey into one of intention, direction, and ultimate fulfillment. The road is yours - TAKE THE WHEEL.

Your ability to share a significant event in your life is amazing. Fear, worry and doubt will shape us unless we take control and get out of the back seat! Great episode Ed, thank you and your team for such amazing content!

[@EdMylettShow]

I hope so!

[@rikyvandeursen4911]

Thank you so much Ed for sharing this, so very helpful! I was in a relationship fir 26 years, there were bad and food years. At the age of 48 I divorced , started a new life in another city. Now having a new relationship, a LAT relationship, and I live it the wat it is….I am in the driver seat, I’m turning 62 in June and I really have a great life! Wonderful live, nice job, great family and friends, fantastic side career as an artist painter, completely healthy and gappy! Thanks again for your great videos, God bless you and your family ❤️🌟

[@LuisaPlantierMartins]

Thank you for this GREAT MESSAGE Ed! Thank God you and your beautiful Bella are safe! 🤗🤗

[@karinaclement1817]

This sounds terrifying. I'm so glad you're well.

[@EdMylettShow]

Thank you!

[@wildlytruthful4193]

I've been following you now Ed for a minute so with respect I say this the adds must go. So many of us pay KZbin to not have to hear adds and now we are hearing them multiple times within a half hour in the messages of our mentors or and coaches. It has become a little to much!

[@EdMylettShow]

well, I have to be honest with you. I agree that there are too many ads on this episode… Certainly, there’s gonna be ads, but in this case, for such a short episode, it’s too many… I was not in control of that, I hope the content is so good that you can see through it and just know that I’ll be working with my new podcast partner to reduce the amount of ads on a show this short… I’m with you… Stay patient my friend

[@michiel2301]

Its okay this video is worthy :) 4 ads is all good. You can skip them in like 5 sec thats like 20seconds of your day. While most people go about watching 2 hours of unexpected content. Like shorts kind of videos. Thats 7200seconds. So to bring awareness I'd say the people who are against the ads are one of the lucky ones that they must be self aware enough to know what is of value. But just to remind you that 20seconds of 7200 seconds is about 0.27%. Respect to those who don't switch to entertaining videos like tiktoks or instagram reels or YT shorts where they feed their brain with just too much. But remember that you are the top 0.27 percent. You value your attention. That means that in a group of a 10thousand people there is 27 of you guys. You are one of the people with potential that realize that your attention is rare and has all the worth. Because it is. What you focus on is what will build. Hope this brought some perspectives. Correct me if my corrections are off

[@michiel2301]

So see this with a grain of sand. Edit: (Thanks ed for another very captivating video won't forget this one. Real life stories/scenarios are very inspiring and gives in my opinion even better lessons.)

[@mariojordan5926]

Great message, but the random ads kill the connection to the story.

[@EdMylettShow]

I actually agree with you… There’s gonna have to be some ads to pay the bills… But there are too many here today… I’ll be working on it my front… This was not my doing

[@jodiegall3366]

Well, it’s 4:30 in the morning I woke up over an hour ago after dreaming about my husband who passed right after I made a sandwich for him and he said he was going to take a quick shower. I didn’t hear the water running for a while enough that I had a horrible thought, I went to the bathroom and the door wouldn’t open because he was slumped up against it ran around to the pool because it had another door entrance and I prayed as I was running that that door was not locked. It wasn’t and when I found him his lips were blue soaking wet on the floor, and I could not help him I tried to do CPR, grab my phone called 911 and scream down the street because I had two firemen and a policeman that lived on my street. They came before the ambulance or any firetruck that was right down the street it seemed like so much time and they wouldn’t tell me how he was doing and wouldn’t let me near him, I guess that’s the first time I have written this maybe that’s why I live in so much fear and have worked so hard to become the person I used to be get her back gone to Joe Dispenza, Rythmia Tony Robbins doing everything to get myself out of this rut. I’m glad you shared the story because there are been plenty of times where I have done 360s and thought it was on ice and I thought it was the end, so God save me so many times.

[@LeadingDaily]

Wow. Thank you for sharing this with us. I am sorry for your loss.

[@karinaclement1817]

Grief takes a toll on everyone who's lost a loved one. It takes time to feel in control of your emotions. She's there. You haven't lost her. She will come back with time. Be patient with yourself. Sending a big hug your way♥️

[@EdMylettShow]

What an incredible story… And I’m so sorry… And you’re willing to vulnerably share this with everybody here is absolutely incredible… God bless you

[@elizabethabbruzzese]

This is the very exact reason he is worth a million dollars or billion dollars because he does these things. He's always hustling. So even though it's annoying I understand it and I admire it and that is why he has so much more money than all of us. He's probably doing it to buy something else big and fancy.

[@seankenyononline774]

So sorry for your loss. This happened to me but I was one my neighbour came running to. I shouldered the bathroom door and found her husband unresponsive. I immediately started CPR and continued for 15 minutes till medics arrived. Whilst doing CPR I felt an immense peace come upon me and it was if my neighbour was saying to me, "I'm ok, you can stop now" It was such a beautiful experience amongst the trauma. He couldn't be revived and I felt a sense of guilt until His wife told me he'd had an aneurysm and there was nothing I could have done. I shared this precious experience I had with his wife and she took such comfort from it. I trust you can too. God bless X

[@Yousuf9522]

I don’t know how I can express my thanks for the… you’re doing hier a great job and i thank you soooo much for sharing your experience and knowledge

[@kjarneson655]

This episode is very motivating for me. Simple message-hits right to the core and has given me some clarity on what’s limiting me! Thanks! In response to complaint I saw about new adds… I never like adds either, anywhere-but as someone working to build online business, Ed I appreciate seeing you do it well. Even if you are already rich, when any person can take advantage of additional “healthy” opportunities to build wealth-it is wise to do so! I am sure a Christian man with the values you hold is the sort of man I want to have more money, I know you do good things with it 😊

[@sharmilakange1232]

Thank u sir thank you very much... For this simple but powerful thought... ❤

Great insight on taking control of life's wheel. Entrepreneurs, remember that the Pareto Principle applies here too; 80% of your results come from 20% of your efforts. Focus on the key actions that drive your business forward and take the wheel in those areas first.

[@namename6459]

I had a similar incident a number of years ago, taking a taxi from the airport. Very frightening and enraging.

[@EdMylettShow]

thank god you are ok

[@themanifestationdude]

The ads have gotten ridiculous😂

[@EdMylettShow]

I just wanted to reply… I don’t really don’t disagree with you… This is too many ads for such a short episode, and I’ll be working on fixing that with my new podcast partner… There will definitely be some ads… But an episode is the short, that is too many… I am with you… Give me a few weeks, stay tuned remember, it’s the best content in the world, so it’s probably worth the ads… But I will do what I can to reduce that burden on you !

[@bderwin67]

Damn Eddy! That brings a whole new meaning to cab driver number 1 in the end credits of the story of your life.

😂😂😂 well said !!!

[@amyk3020]

Happy to hear that you just paid him and let him go. He could have gotten crazy with you, sounds like drugs. What a shame to put lives in danger and then to proceed only to have an accident. I worry everyday while driving about the speed and nonsense that I see on the East Coast. Why can't people slow down and enjoy the ride. I do feel in control but always think that life needs some fine tuning. Great info and thanks for sharing. So sorry to have that experience on a rainy night

Maybe if you start the show with 1 ad or finish the show with 1 ad(even better) with nothing in the middle to interrupt the interview or the solo podcast then you may be able to get away with the ads if you must do them. Thanks for the reply.

[@asiwat]

Hi Ed! I really need to know the answer on this question. What is the difference between people who stick to their change and people who drift back to their old habits and patterns? There is your dad, who stopped drinking for 15 years or Brendon Burchard who stopped with negativity and today is completely different person and helps other people get better lifes. And How do you know that person standing next to you really means words he/she is saying. Let's say you don't know well that person. Could be dating or business partner. btw: I am a people pleaser. Thank you so much for your content and for everything you did for me and other people watching it. I don't know a better person than you

[@gregoryjules2005]

Working on getting on the podcast. I promise you'll look forward to it

[@brandonodonnell7675]

Ed you ever been to Russia? I had an experience like that with no seatbelts

[@EdMylettShow]

I’ve actually never been there before… I’ve had friends that go, and I’ve had some interesting experiences as well

[@ozarkcyn1]

And some old story CAN continue because the person driving IS still severely harming another's life. Most people NEVER talk about that. When you're dealing with the SAME type of human being who gave you that SHORT horrific ride try dealing with someone like that for over six years on a DAILY basis. Could you get that taxi driver to STOP? NO you couldn't.

Ed, What did you do to attract this?

[@SovereigntyLover]

Are you trying to keep it real by taking a cab? Lol but a Serious 🧐 question. Wealthy people typically hire drivers. I don’t even ride in cabs cause it’s typically a not so good experience. Thank God you and your daughter are fine and thank you for this message. 🙏

[@floydsmithjr7999]

It’s subconscious behavior. How do you change it? That’s still up for debate. I think what happens in the 1st five years of your life is going manifest itself in your life for the rest of your life. I think if you’re one of the lucky ones who knows exactly what it was that made you what you are today, you have a chance at fixing it. Unfortunately most of us can’t remember some seemingly insignificant event that occurred in our childhood that altered our psyche to this day. I think, just my uneducated opinion, if you stay mindful of what your doing and how your thinking, create the right habits that push you towards the person you want to be, stay consistent with it, over time you will alter your subconscious to behave the way you want it to behave. In other words you have to brainwash yourself. This is why it’s so important for you to give your children a stable upbringing. Remember, they are watching you.

[@kiaracoco]

Wow you change life`s :) You`re send by God with deep purpose :)
