Your World Within Podcast by Eddie Pinero
Fix Your Mindset & Take Charge of Your Life | Powerful Motivational Speech
06 Nov 2024
Today’s episode is a reminder that the journey itself builds the strength we’re looking for. You don’t wait until you’re strong to go to the gym—the gym is where strength is built. It’s the same with life; you don’t need to wait until you feel ready or “worthy” to make a difference or find connection. Instead, focus on becoming a capable, valuable person, and watch as the right people start to show up naturally. When you lean into curiosity, freedom, and passion instead of waiting for accolades or success, that’s where real growth begins. Your inner world, “your world within,” is the chisel shaping the life you want on the outside. When you take accountability for everything in your life—both the good and the bad—you become powerful enough to change it. It’s not about building a cage now to break free later; it’s about living fully now, creating meaning, and owning every part of the journey. In becoming capable, aligned, and intentional, you’ll find yourself surrounded by the right energy, people, and opportunities—your life will transform from the inside out.

The whole thing was backwards. The cart was before the horse. Now, sometimes that's obvious. You don't need to wait until you're strong to go to the gym. The gym is what builds the strength. It's a very easy progression to understand. And we understand it. Some of the time. Hear me out. He seemed to think that if he only found the right person, he himself would finally be complete.
Completely unaware that if he just instead made himself whole, if he worked on himself, the right people would come into his orbit. That is, after all, how it goes. That may be, all in all, my biggest qualm with quote-unquote networking. The best networking you can do is be a capable human being with value to add.
Then, get this, instead of having to scour the surface of the earth for like-minded people, they show up in your inbox. It is, all in all, a storyline we have backwards. The right people can't complete you. A complete you brings in the right people. She seemed to think that money had to be made, that success was critical because that success would bring approval. and status and power.
It would be what slays the demons. And then once successful, she could finally live free. She could be at peace, not bending to the whims and the demands of others. That's why the money was so important. That's why the success was imperative. Not knowing that, whoops,
It's one's ability to live freely now before the money comes without the success and accolades that the door to all that other stuff is opened. Curiosity, passion, and freedom has prompted more greatness than anything else. And there are some things we can afford to postpone. The freedom to be you and do what's meaningful in the present moment is not one of those things.
It's another storyline we have backwards. Don't exist in a cage of your own making so that someday you can live free. Live free now and instead capture the meaning in life. He wanted to be one of the greats. And so, as if a blueprint were placed in his hand, he recreated, he copied, he emulated those who have walked the path before him.
He tirelessly chiseled away at his current self to represent someone else. Those who had done it. Someone standing on a mountain top looking down. Seems good on the surface. But what he didn't know is that those who came before him injected their own authenticity into their pursuits. They weren't recreating the same portrait as someone else.
Maybe in some cases they were picking up the same tools, the same brush. but they were etching the world as it was experienced through their own eyes. Again, maybe students of the technique and the history, certainly respectful of what previously existed, but understanding that their job was to receive the torch and carry it somewhere new. Another storyline that we have backwards.
We think extracting ourselves gets us closer to the formula, but my friend, you are the formula. There's a common theme here. And I can tell you wholeheartedly from experience This isn't some magical thing I pulled out from under a rock. This is lived experience. This is learned experience. This is me putting my own hand on the stove and going, wow, I have to be careful of that.
