How To Get Things Done As A Perfectionist

You know that nagging feeling that nothing’s ever quite good enough? Yeah, I get it too. I’m a perfectionist, through and through.

In this episode, I dive into the good, the bad, and the downright frustrating sides of striving for perfection. Whether it's helping you level up or holding you back, I’ll show you how to make perfectionism work for you.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comThis episode is brought to you by:This show is sponsored by BetterHelpFabricLevel up your life with these badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room):Maximize your potential and experience life-changing growth by either enrolling in my Private Coaching program or Group Coaching program⁠.Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness through my weekly ⁠newsletter⁠.Discover your true potential with the support of a passionate Discord community.Access ad-free listening, monthly 15-minute one-on-one virtual coffee meetings, entry to my Members-Only Discord channel, and exclusive discounts on my courses and newsletter.Access my downloadable and printable exercises to equip yourself with the essential tools for success.Explore how HashDash combines technology and cannabis to support your health journey.

The Power of Showing Up

On a quiet Sunday morning, I found myself captivated by a bird on a mission—flying tirelessly back and forth, building a nest outside my home. Watching this little creature work day after day, I realized it embodied qualities we often overlook: consistency, perseverance, and relentless ambition. Often we, as humans, struggle to show up for ourselves, especially when life throws obstacles our way. It’s easy to get discouraged when results don’t appear immediately or when life’s challenges seem too big to overcome. But just like that bird, the secret to success lies in showing up, day after day, no matter what. In this episode, I reflect on the power of consistency and how it has played a crucial role in my own life—from failed startups to personal challenges.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comThis episode is brought to you by:LumenLevel up your life with these badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room):Maximize your potential and experience life-changing growth by either enrolling in my Private Coaching program or Group Coaching program⁠.Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness through my weekly ⁠newsletter⁠.Discover your true potential with the support of a passionate Discord community.Access ad-free listening, monthly 15-minute one-on-one virtual coffee meetings, entry to my Members-Only Discord channel, and exclusive discounts on my courses and newsletter.Access my downloadable and printable exercises to equip yourself with the essential tools for success.Explore how HashDash combines technology and cannabis to support your health journey.

The Philosophy That Made Tony Robbins A Self-Help Success

Standing next to Tony Robbins is like standing next to a giant. At 6 foot 6 and 275 pounds, he towers over most people, including me at 5 foot 8 on a good day. But Tony Robbins isn’t just a physical giant—he’s been dominating the self-help world since 1997, earning the title of the nation’s #1 Life and Business Strategist. Millions know his name, have attended his events, and read his books. But few know the man who inspired Tony's success. That man was Jim Rohn, the original godfather of self-help, whose philosophy helped shape Tony into the powerhouse he is today. In this episode, I dive deep into the philosophy that turned Tony Robbins from a janitor making $40 a week into a multimillionaire.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comThis episode is brought to you by:The Motivated Mind is sponsored by BetterHelpLevel up your life with these badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room):Maximize your potential and experience life-changing growth by either enrolling in my Private Coaching program or Group Coaching program⁠.Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness through my weekly ⁠newsletter⁠.Discover your true potential with the support of a passionate Discord community.Access ad-free listening, monthly 15-minute one-on-one virtual coffee meetings, entry to my Members-Only Discord channel, and exclusive discounts on my courses and newsletter.Access my downloadable and printable exercises to equip yourself with the essential tools for success.Explore how HashDash combines technology and cannabis to support your health journey.

How Doing A Bad Job Will Change Your Life

Before you throw in the towel because you’re not instantly good at something, let’s talk. We’ve all heard, "If you can’t do it right, don’t do it at all," but what if that's holding you back? In this episode, I challenge the fear of failure that keeps so many from trying new things. From feeling weak at the gym to sounding terrible on your first podcast, sucking at something is part of the process. I explore how embracing imperfection and doing a bad job, at least at first, can actually change your life for the better. Because if it's worth doing, it's worth doing wrong until you get it right.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comThis episode is brought to you by:Trade Coffee: drinktrade.com/motivatedSiPhox HealthConnecteamEmbrace greatness through these empowering offerings:Embrace the boundless power of your mind.

Start Living Your Life Like You're The Hero In Your Own Movie

In a world of over 500,000 films, one thing is consistent—each story has a hero. From superheroes like Superman to historical figures like Gandhi, these characters inspire us to be courageous, to see opportunities where others see obstacles, and to take on challenges despite the odds. But as we grow older, many of us lose sight of our inner hero. We trade our capes for routine and let life happen to us instead of taking charge. It’s time to reclaim your story. It’s time to decide. Decide to live boldly, to overcome, to thrive. In this episode, I discuss why you need to start living your life like you’re the hero in your own movie.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comThis episode is brought to you by:ShopifyTimelineFabricEmbrace greatness through these empowering offerings:Embrace the boundless power of your mind.

Stop Shaving Off Your Weird Edges

Each of us is unique, shaped by our genes, upbringing, and experiences. Yet, society often pressures us to conform, shaving down the unique edges that make us who we are. Like robots in iRobot, we become indistinguishable, losing our individuality and the richness of our diverse perspectives. I've felt this pressure myself, especially as a content creator. Society's demands to be something to everyone can dull our true selves, making us lose our edges. I used to censor myself, trying to be perfect and unattackable, but it wasn't sustainable. Now, I'm pushing back against this conformity. In this episode, I explore the importance of keeping your unique edges and resisting societal pressures to conform.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comThis episode is brought to you by:SiPhox HealthEmbrace greatness through these empowering offerings:Embrace the boundless power of your mind.

The Forgotten Story of The Richest Person In Human History

Jeff Bezos's fortune is vast, but he isn't the richest person in history. That title belongs to Mansa Musa, whose wealth, even adjusted for inflation, surpasses Bezos, Elon Musk, and Bill Gates combined. Ruling the Mali Empire in the 1300s, Musa controlled vast gold and salt reserves and his immense generosity caused a decade-long gold recession in cities like Cairo, Medina, and Mecca. He transformed Timbuktu into a global center of trade, culture, and learning. Despite his monumental impact, Mansa Musa's story is largely forgotten outside of Africa. In this episode, I discuss the forgotten story of Mansa Musa and the transformative power of his wealth and visionary leadership.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comThis episode is brought to you by:LumenEmbrace greatness through these empowering offerings:Embrace the boundless power of your mind.
