Dan Martell - How Powerful Pain Can Be

00:00:00.000 People won't change until the pain of staying the same

00:00:02.660 is greater than the pain of change.

00:00:04.440 It's tough, but what they don't realize

00:00:05.740 on the other end of that,

00:00:06.840 you get to become somebody where it's not hard anymore.

00:00:09.300 So a lot of people that are in pain and addiction

00:00:11.420 and setbacks, they have vices.

00:00:13.020 The social media, the womanizing, the sugar, the gambling.

00:00:17.280 Every one of those is a thing holding somebody back

00:00:19.880 from fullest expression of who they are.

00:00:21.560 The problem is the pain of change for a lot of people,

00:00:24.000 it's big.

00:00:24.740 My rule is create the stakes and make it a non-negotiable.

00:00:28.000 You have to publicly claim to the world

00:00:30.820 what you're trying to accomplish,

00:00:32.100 and if you don't accomplish it,

00:00:33.480 there is a massive downside for you not accomplishing that.

00:00:36.500 The other day I was coaching a client.

00:00:37.800 He's like, I'm done, I'm getting fit, this is the year.

00:00:40.080 I said, are you sure?

00:00:41.000 He goes, yeah, if you don't do it,

00:00:42.120 I will publicly post you didn't do it.

00:00:43.880 He goes, oh, are we good?

00:00:46.020 He's like, heard, perfect.

00:00:48.240 Most people will do way more for other people

00:00:51.780 than they'll do for themselves.
