Transcript

do you remember the very first lockdown feeling afraid nervous and anxious sensing that we lost the very foundation that we thought we had complying to government guidelines you washed your hands for 20 seconds he made sure you spent he stayed two meters apart while wearing an n95 mask while frantically looking for all the toilet paper you could find not me no siree i was restless i wanted to help i wanted to be a make it be a difference and make a change so i pivoted i collaborated and i created until i got a call to co-found a new startup alongside a world-renowned group with a

mission to flatten the curve it was a dream opportunity creating global partnerships intentions to raise and goals to 100x i felt like i was riding a rocket ship with unicorn aspirations the momentum the early wins and the market buzz it paved the way for ego greed and jealousy feeling groundless disappointed and frustrated i had to find the courage the courage to leave because if i stayed i wouldn't have been the same so heartbroken i wrote my resignation and i quit i went from 100 to zero real quick crushed lost depressed questioning my worth my purpose all the decisions i made in my life turning to

my journal to make sense of it all i started to see that i was trapped on a seesaw i was waiting for a hero to lift and complete me page after page weekly zoom calls with friends and countless prayers to god i finally understood that the hero i was waiting for the hero was me mind blown it was a mindset shift i began to believe that anything was truly possible that success success was not a linear gradual grind it was a series of phase shifts like when water turns to gas i thought of kobe bryant who passed earlier that year he went from high school

to the nba to the greatest of all time he was a role model because of his drive focus and audacity would be great staring at my vision board hanging on the wall i wondered what does what does greatness mean to me so i tallied up the cost of every image i could see to understand what my monthly bill would be so i could decide what my yearly salary should be it became clear to me 100x your business you see 100x like what the actual [ __ ] just saying 100x out loud brings shivers self-doubt fear right down to my core but rather than run this

time i leaned in and on september 22nd 2020 i publicly declare that i edwin i'm gonna 100x my business in 100 days instantly transformed even though i had no clue how except the sole belief that i could committed in flow and living each day like it were my last i decided i want to share my journey on a daily video blog to track my progress my conversations and all the synchronicities i started each video saying i'm gonna 100x and i was living my passion i was living the dream i finally started to sense god was conspiring along with me but by day 70 it dawned

upon me i'm not actually going to hit my 100-day goal but like a rocket that burns most of its fuel to escape the pull of earth through my daily practice i launched myself through the gravity of my own resistance to a space of unwavering belief that i was truly gonna 100x because not only am i enough i like you like all of you and 100x you
