What does it mean to experience defeat?
This is the part that I think we often miss. We think defeat is something life gives us, bestowed upon us by the world. It's a letter we get in the mail. When in reality, it's much simpler than that. Defeat is an internal decision. Defeat is looking around and quite simply saying no. It's saying, sure, I could have this. I know I'm capable of it, but I don't want it. I refuse to march on.
Is defeat an external force or an internal decision?
Defeat is saying the prize or mountaintop or victory. To me, it's just not worth what it costs. And when you believe that, that's when you have officially created and allowed defeat into your life. It's a willingness question, a how bad do you want it question. Because here's the deal, the road to anything meaningful is difficult.
How can mindset influence our perception of defeat?
a willingness to pivot, to pick yourself up off the floor and continue into an unknown that, let's be real, owes you nothing, well, that can hurt. That's not a comfortable process. But the truth is, it hurts less than defeat. Waking up two hours earlier to find a way to build yourself up to get ahead, that's far less painful than looking in the mirror and saying, yeah, I could have, but I didn't.
What are the costs of pursuing meaningful goals?
I could be there or at least on the way, but I'm not. And it's amazing to me how the mind will rationalize. We can convince ourselves of anything. which is great when you're your own ally, but it's simultaneously devastating when you're your own worst enemy. The same circumstance that tells you to go can be interpreted as a reason to stop.
How does self-interpretation affect our journey?
The brain knows it's been two years since you started your business. It knows you've been working on your health for six months. It knows the process is taking longer than expected. And so you're tasked with the interpretation of these data points. How do you interpret that information? What do you make of it? Is it, I've been at this for two years now. Think how far I've come.
What role does commitment play in overcoming challenges?
Think how much I've learned. I've positioned myself for success. I'm one decision away from massive momentum. It's not validation, but continued dedication that will carry me home. This is the path. Or is it, well, it's been two years. And if I can't do it in two years, then maybe I just can't do it. Maybe I should look for something easier. My pride hurts. I'm letting myself down. I look dumb, right? And the list goes on. That is the fork in the road that means everything. That's the maze that few find a way out of. Not, as previously said, of an inability to find the exit, but because of a lack of commitment to the twists and the turns. Is it, I've been working on my health for six months. Look at the foundation I've built.
When I look in the mirror, sure, I don't necessarily see the results I wanted now, but the habits are there. I've made some progress. I've lost some weight. My ability to run has improved somewhat. Now it's a matter of carrying on to that exponential growth. And that may be just around the corner. Or, just as in the previous example, is it, if I can't do it in six months, then maybe I can't do it.
