Finding Meaning in Serving Others
Ed Mylett shares his journey from being a sad child to discovering meaning in his life through serving others. Working at an orphanage, he experienced the joy of making a difference in the lives of children who had been through hardship. This shift in focus from himself to others brought fulfillment and helped alleviate his insecurities. Ed realized that money and personal achievements could only provide temporary happiness, while serving others brought lasting fulfillment.
The Transformative Power of Change
Ed Mylett's life was shaped by his father's transformation from an alcoholic to a loving, kind, and giving man. This experience taught Ed the invaluable lesson that people can change. It inspired him to help others see their potential for change and transform their lives. Through his work, Ed aims to empower people to let go of their past failures and regrets, and discover their own capacity for growth and transformation.
Striving to Maximize Potential

He views life as a continuous journey of personal development and growth, striving to exceed his previous versions by replacing himself every year. Ed believes that success is not measured by material possessions, but by living a life of purpose and fully utilizing one's unique talents and capabilities. He is motivated by the desire to meet the best version of himself and make the most of his time on Earth.
Start Moving and Embrace Your Genius
To step into your greatness and unlock your genius, the first step is to start moving. You need to take action and get things in motion. While it's important to have an idea or vision of what you want to accomplish, you don't need to have all the details figured out from the start. Many successful individuals, such as Henry Ford and Steve Wozniak, didn't have a clear roadmap when they began their ventures. Instead of focusing on what you don't know or what could go wrong, focus on taking the first step and be open to the doors of opportunity that will open along the way. Remember, the more you keep moving and planting seeds, the more your genius will flourish.
Believe in Your Genius and Enroll God in Your Vision
A key factor that can prevent someone from stepping into their genius is a lack of identity or confidence in their own abilities. It's crucial to believe in your own genius and proactively increase the thermostat setting of your life. Challenge any self-sabotaging beliefs or limitations and embrace the belief that you are deserving and worthy of success. Additionally, for those who have faith, it's essential to recognize that God is not confined to certain areas of your life. Enroll God in your vision, whether it's in business or any other endeavor, and trust in the divine guidance and support that can help unleash your genius. By aligning your faith with your actions, you can tap into the full potential of your genius.
