And let's get real, change your life in a year, it sounds like some Pinterest-worthy slogan that's, like, slapped on the back of a, a picture with a sunset, right? But under the right conditions, with the right mindset, with the right strategy, a year is plenty of time to radically shift the trajectory of your life.

And so the point of this is to be intentional and to understand that every action that you take that's in the right direction compounds over and over and over again with each one of them that you do.

Rewiring your mindset, your behavior, and also your identity of who you think you are from the inside out.

And so we have five different steps that we're gonna go through of how to actually change your life in a year.

And so what I mean by this is, is no more blaming, no more excuses, no more waiting for the perfect time, no more outsourcing your results.

If you're going to really step up, you have to be the CEO of your life, which means that if your life crashes, it's on you.

I think that one of the things that's kind of a tragedy for growing up in the West is that we kind of just go from living with our parents to kinda going to college to kinda getting a job and stuff, but there's never any real big moment of, "You are now a man.

Not just like I moved out of my parents' house, but, like, a psychological break of I'm now a man, or I'm now a woman.

And years ago, in tribes, they used to have rites of passage where there was this really hard thing that you had to do, and that was a symbolism for you now becoming a man or a woman, and we don't have that anymore.

And so a lot of people are 45 years old, and they're still like, "Well, you know, I'm waiting for my life to change," as if someone's gonna come and change their life for them because they're kind of unconsciously still, like, waiting for Mommy and Daddy to come and save them.

And so you can't say anymore, like, "I don't have enough time," or, "I'm too young to do it," or, "I'm too old," or, "It's the government's fault," or, "The economy's not in the right place," or, "You don't understand how my parents treated me when I was a kid," or, "You know, I have children, so I don't have enough time." What it means is you cannot blame anything externally outside of you.

If you don't fully adopt the mindset of total ownership, nothing else that I say today is gonna matter at all.

And so without it, you're kinda just, like, stuck in the waiting room of life, just, like, hoping someone's gonna come in and call your name and go, "Hey, you.
