Welcome to the final episode in the 7-part RESET IN 20 series. In this episode, George takes you inside one of the most vulnerable seasons of his life and teaches the foundational mindset practice that transforms overwhelm into power: standing guard at your lighthouse: your mind, your heart, and your perspective. This isn’t about hacks or tactics. It’s about reclaiming your agency and choosing what thoughts get access to your lighthouse.Whether you’re burned out, uncertain, or just need a reminder of who you are, this episode equips you with a simple but profound way to come back to center and protect what matters most.This isn’t just a reset, it’s a revival of your inner guard.What You’ll Learn in This Episode:Why unchecked thoughts become mental prisonsThe difference between reaction vs. response (and why it matters)How to build your “medicine cabinet” of mindset toolsWhat Jim Rohn, Mike Tyson, and Stephen Furtick all have in common (hint: perspective)Why strategy fails without perspective and how to avoid that trapA live, behind-the-scenes window into how George rebuilds from adversity Key Takeaways:✔️Stand guard at your lighthouse: Protect your mind, heart, and perspective like your life depends on it, because it does.✔️Perspective is the difference between power and prison. You can have the right strategy, but the wrong mindset will sabotage it.✔️Choose to respond, not react. Your past does not deserve to lead your present.✔️Build your mental “medicine cabinet.” Fill it with the tools, books, videos, and reminders that bring you back to center.✔️Clarity doesn’t come from chaos. Emotional spirals don’t lead to solutions, presence does.✔️Community matters. Surround yourself with a triage team who can remind you who you are when you forget.✔️You only lose when you quit. Keep building your vision, even if it doesn’t look like you thought it would.Timestamps & Highlights:[00:00] – “It doesn’t matter if it comes from a friend, an enemy, or yourself.

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.

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/
