What if the very thing draining your energy isn’t your to-do list… but your tolerance list?In this eye-opening episode, George flips the script on the usual productivity talk and gets real about the silent chaos we allow in our lives. From draining clients to leaky boundaries, what you tolerate becomes what you teach. And today, you’ll discover how to reclaim your power, not by doing more, but by tolerating less.This powerful rerun from the Reset in 20 series isn’t about adding new strategies, it’s about subtracting the ones that are misaligned. What You’ll Learn in This Episode:Why misalignment doesn’t come from what you do, but what you allowHow tolerating small misfires leads to big resentmentThe ripple effect of values (or lack of them) across your team and businessA single journaling question that will reveal what needs to change now Key Takeaways:✔️You’re not what you do, you’re what you tolerate. That applies to your team, your offers, your habits, and yourself.✔️Resentment is often self-created. We don’t get drained by others, we get drained by saying yes when we mean no.✔️The clearest standards are the ones we model. Your team and your clients won’t rise above the example you set.✔️One powerful question to sit with: “What are you resentfully tolerating instead of actively celebrating?”✔️Three values, standards, or principles can realign your entire environment. Timestamps & Highlights:[00:00] — Intro to Episode 4 + overview of Reset in 20[01:45] — “You’re not what you do, you’re what you tolerate” explained[03:25] — Real-life application with George and Ashley’s team[06:50] — Story from EOS Implementer Dave Feidner on toxic team transformation[10:40] — How personal tolerations mirror in business and family[13:00] — Impact of misalignment and missed standards on company culture[15:10] — Values aren’t slogans, they’re behavioral bumpers[16:40] — Reflection question to reset your standard this week[18:20] — Wrap-up + personal reflection momentYour Challenge This Week:Commit to finishing all 7 episodes of the Reset in 20 series and invite one friend to do it with you.

Have you ever caught yourself saying, “I know I’m meant for more” and yet, you’re stuck in the loop of self-doubt, imposter syndrome, or playing small?In this episode, George rips the Band-Aid off one of the biggest lies entrepreneurs tell themselves: that our beliefs are facts. They’re not. And if we don’t rewrite them, they’ll keep running the show. If you want to change your results, your business, your impact… It starts with one belief. And this episode gives you the blueprint to make that shift in less than 30 minutes.George guides you through a practical 4-part process to expose the limiting thoughts holding you back, embody a new empowering belief, and integrate it into your daily habits.This isn’t about vision boards or empty affirmations, it’s about real transformation through emotional intensity, consistent reps, and embodied practice.What You’ll Learn in This Episode:Why most of your beliefs would never hold up in a court of law (and why that’s liberating)The exact 4-step framework: Think it → Feel it → Act it → Become itHow to identify a disempowering belief and calculate what it’s really costing youWhy emotional intensity is the “missing ingredient” in affirmationsThe daily actions and rituals that lock in your identity shift Key Takeaways:✔️Beliefs aren’t facts. They’re just repeated thoughts with emotional charge. You can choose new ones.✔️Emotional intensity + repetition = transformation. Affirmations without feeling are just empty words.✔️Identify your current disempowering belief and ask: Is it true? What is it costing me?✔️Replace it with an empowering belief that aligns with the future you want, then act on it today.✔️Environment shapes identity. Record your new belief, speak it out loud, and surround yourself with reminders. Timestamps & Highlights:[00:00] — Welcome to Reset in 20: Episode 3 intro + belief breakdown[03:36] — Foundational 4-part framework[07:40] — Quote from OG Mandino: Why action shapes thought[10:55] — Limiting beliefs: The invisible blocks we rarely name[14:12] — 4 reflection questions to dismantle false beliefs[17:30] — Emotional intensity & repetition: The real rewiring formula[19:18] — How to write and feel your new belief[22:50] — Embodying new beliefs in your actions, environment, and daily rhythmYour Challenge This Week:If this episode sparked something, DM your new belief to George on Instagram @itsgeorgebryant and he’ll personally celebrate it with you.And if you’re enjoying the Reset in 20 series, share this with one friend and commit to all 7 episodes together.Book Mentioned:The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino: for embedding beliefs through repetition and emotion. Join The Alliance: The Relationship Beats Algorithms™ community for entrepreneurs building meaningful businesses through connection.Apply for 1:1 Coaching with George: Build a business aligned with your heart, not just your head.Check out upcoming live events and workshops at: https://mindofgeorge.com/retreat/
