Most men know what they want to change, but they struggle to build the Bulletproof Mindset required to achieve it. Host Daniel Weinberg sits down with mindset coach and entrepreneur Dan Kennedy to…
Did I learn certain pillars in my own journey of personal growth and what had the most impact? And I guess, you know, if you think of an anchor on a boat, if you don't put the anchor down, the boat starts drifting.
And I think for majority of people, they're kind of just drifting all the time and just reacting to things and this happened so I feel like this and today's like this so I'm going to act like that.
that's the key word there, I think, is that most people go through life by responding to what's happening to them rather than them reacting taking control of what's happening.
And to one of the points you said before around some of these key areas I lean into, I heavily lean into the fact that when we decide what we want to experience, so the desire that we want to have in our life, much like a mirror, like if I'm standing in front of a mirror, at no point is the reflection going to put on a white shirt before I do, obviously.
They're waiting for this reflection of reality to do something or change so then they can change or feel different.
But what I've really started to anchor into is that we're the cause and reality is the effect.
And so when I talk about, say, bulletproof mindset, What I truly mean by that is taking care of the non-negotiables that are within your control to essentially make sure that you're showing up to your life in the state and in the frequency of the person you want to become because it won't happen by accident.
And so when I mention anchors, and these can vary from person to person, like for myself, every morning I kind of start with either ice bath or cold plunge or cold shower, which Not for the physical benefits, more so because it's difficult.
And from that, I'll then go and do some journaling for a little bit, get some intention around like what I want to experience out of the day, a little bit of gratitude, and then I'll meditate or do breath work.
Now, those three things I'm doing as soon as I get up before I've done anything else.
And so the goal is that as a byproduct of doing those things, I am now showing up to my day as the person that I said I want to be.
Not reactive, I'm responding as that future self because I've put myself in a really good frequency.
And so I think one of the big lessons that I learned is that the state we're in will determine our perception of every single experience we have.
