EPISODE 99: The Most Important Work You Need to Do For Health and Success

Episode 99: George Bryant

Let’s talk about success in health and marketing.

Wait, what the heck ties these two together??

According to George Bryant, New York Times Best Selling Author, host of The Mind of George Podcast and highest paid digital marketing consultant in the world, nobody has a business, marketing, or fitness problem. But everybody has a relationship problem.

If you come to think of it, this makes a lot of sense.

Relationships—especially to ourselves—is at the core of everything we do. Not only do relationships stimulate oxytocin production that’s good for the health, it’s the foundation of success, in business and in life. Relationships influences the choices that we make. And it can either come from what our “within” says or what outside, external voices say.

To George, the number one traded commodity today is intention. So many people fall victims of everybody else’s agenda. How do other people view us? How do others do things? How do markets change? What do customers think?

We get so wrapped up and co-dependent on things that are out of our control.
We spend majority of our lives doing everything for other people. And this prevents us from building a relationship with the one person who’s guaranteed we’d be spending our lives with—ourselves!

What does it mean to have a relationship with yourself:

A lot of people default in relationships to mean everybody outside themselves, but it’s actually avoiding the void of the relationship with themselves.
We get wrapped up and co-dependent on things that are out of our control, e.g., how other people view us, how people do things, how markets, and customers change. We advocate our sovereignty over again and we operate in sympathetic victim mode, we increase cortisol and stress, we don’t sleep and we keep adding gasoline to the fire. But at the end of the day, what we can do is shrink our world to everything we can control.

What we do:

At the core, we don’t fix marketing. We fix somebody’s self-relationship to instill confidence and clarity and have the ability to navigate these things and use the tools they have.
If you’re doing something from a place of insecurity or lack (going to the gym, breathwork, diet), then it’s just going to be a temporary void filler, end up worse than you started.
We use marketing as a trojan horse to get people to work on self-development—getting into the deep psychology of why they want things, and who they are.

Intention is number one traded commodity today that so many people are victims of everybody else’s agenda. We spend majority of our lives doing everything that prevents us from building a relationship with the one person who’s guaranteed we’d be spending our lives with—ourselves!

How do we get people to start waking up earlier: Ask within and start with your microscopic wants—What do I want? Who do I want to be?

It all boils down to the choices that we make. But what matters more is that the choices we make are from a place of alignment and integrity, not from a place of of outside pressure.

Try this practice: When you wake up, before youn touch the world, practice boredom for 20 minutes, i.e., no phone, no music, no notepad. Whatever happens in that moment stays in that moment. Practice being in a relationship with our autonomic nervous system and choosing how we respond. All these same principles apply to business, marketing or team leadership.

George’s Secret Sauce: You don’t need to add any more tools into your toolbox. What you need is to practice the ability to utilize what’s already in there.

George’s Rule: This not for shelf-help. Listen to one. Don’t listen to another until you’ve applied it. Start incremental progress and change every single day.

George’s Best Medicine: Stillness and alone time.
