Show Transcript

00:00:00.677 --> 00:00:05.697


Kevin Lowe: Do you consider yourself the betting kind? I mean, like, are you the one throwing



00:00:05.697 --> 00:00:09.137


Kevin Lowe: down some money while visiting the casino in Las Vegas?



00:00:09.577 --> 00:00:14.957


Kevin Lowe: Or are you the one who is more than willing to bet on your favorite horse,



00:00:15.237 --> 00:00:17.777


Kevin Lowe: the winning horse, for the Kentucky Derby?



00:00:18.017 --> 00:00:22.417


Kevin Lowe: Or, well, there's also that third scenario, which I think all of us have been



00:00:22.417 --> 00:00:28.397


Kevin Lowe: there at some point in time, is spending our last $10 on that winning Powerball ticket?



00:00:29.037 --> 00:00:32.257


Kevin Lowe: Yes, my friend, we have all been there. We have all done it.



00:00:32.377 --> 00:00:37.077


Kevin Lowe: We have all spent and lost more money than we would like to admit.



00:00:37.417 --> 00:00:43.657


Kevin Lowe: And so with all of us being so willing to bet on all of these things, I ask you this question.



00:00:43.877 --> 00:00:46.077


Kevin Lowe: How many times have you bet on yourself?



00:00:46.757 --> 00:00:51.517


Kevin Lowe: Yes, my friend, I am talking about betting on you. And that is exactly what



00:00:51.517 --> 00:00:57.417


Kevin Lowe: we're talking about inside of today's 371st episode of Grit, Grace and Inspiration.



00:00:58.077 --> 00:01:01.817


Kevin Lowe: Today, we're turning the tables and we're putting money on you.



00:01:02.417 --> 00:01:06.397


Kevin Lowe: Hey, I'm your host, Kevin Lowe, and you are listening to Grit,



00:01:06.617 --> 00:01:07.937


Kevin Lowe: Grace, and Inspiration.



00:01:09.277 --> 00:01:15.037


Kevin Lowe: The fact is true, my friend. The single greatest investment you could ever make is in yourself.



00:01:15.357 --> 00:01:18.937


Kevin Lowe: I'm talking about an investment in your own personal growth,



00:01:18.957 --> 00:01:24.797


Kevin Lowe: an investment in your own dreams, your own desires, the things that you want



00:01:24.797 --> 00:01:26.437


Kevin Lowe: to have happen in your life.



00:01:26.977 --> 00:01:31.297


Kevin Lowe: That is where you should be putting your money. So I don't care if it means



00:01:31.297 --> 00:01:33.137


Kevin Lowe: that you have to hire a coach.



00:01:33.257 --> 00:01:37.457


Kevin Lowe: If you sign up for a pottery class, if you go back to college.



00:01:38.379 --> 00:01:44.379


Kevin Lowe: Or if it's simply you picking up the newest self-help book, if you are putting



00:01:44.379 --> 00:01:50.479


Kevin Lowe: time, money, and resources into you, then my friend, it is an investment that



00:01:50.479 --> 00:01:52.659


Kevin Lowe: will pay off. I guarantee you.



00:01:52.939 --> 00:01:57.539


Kevin Lowe: And imagine that, my friend. That's exactly why I created the free resource



00:01:57.539 --> 00:02:02.379


Kevin Lowe: for you to download called 14 Nuggets of Wisdom for a Better Life.



00:02:02.379 --> 00:02:07.279


Kevin Lowe: There is a link at the top of today's show notes that will give you direct access



00:02:07.279 --> 00:02:11.499


Kevin Lowe: to download that today to give you a little bit of a boost, a head start,



00:02:11.779 --> 00:02:18.199


Kevin Lowe: a cheat code on getting started, focusing on you to make this the best year ever.



00:02:18.579 --> 00:02:24.719


Kevin Lowe: Now, what got me fired up about today's topic was my interview with none other



00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:30.859


Kevin Lowe: than James Bracken, who I introduced to you in our past episode, episode 370.



00:02:31.679 --> 00:02:36.039


Kevin Lowe: Now, if you didn't catch my interview with James, well, I'll fill you in by



00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:42.859


Kevin Lowe: simply saying, James is an awesome guy who at such a young age has more wisdom



00:02:42.859 --> 00:02:44.979


Kevin Lowe: to share than one can imagine.



00:02:45.399 --> 00:02:50.579


Kevin Lowe: In terms of this idea of investing in ourselves, he started doing this back



00:02:50.579 --> 00:02:52.079


Kevin Lowe: when he was still in high school.



00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:57.939


Kevin Lowe: Everything got kicked into gear for James back when the rest of us were thinking



00:02:57.939 --> 00:03:05.339


Kevin Lowe: about final exams or the pretty girl we want to ask out, or maybe if we're really



00:03:05.339 --> 00:03:07.059


Kevin Lowe: thinking big, thinking about college.



00:03:07.279 --> 00:03:14.679


Kevin Lowe: Instead, James Bracken, he was signing up for coaching. He was becoming a coach himself.



00:03:15.179 --> 00:03:21.099


Kevin Lowe: He was investing in himself. Otherwise known as he was betting on himself.



00:03:22.175 --> 00:03:26.095


Kevin Lowe: So let's answer the first question as we continue, because I want to give you



00:03:26.095 --> 00:03:28.935


Kevin Lowe: lots of value inside of today's episode.



00:03:29.575 --> 00:03:33.055


Kevin Lowe: And I guess we should start by answering the simple question.



00:03:33.435 --> 00:03:36.455


Kevin Lowe: What exactly do I mean when I say betting on yourself?



00:03:37.055 --> 00:03:41.155


Kevin Lowe: Well, it's more than a financial risk. It's about your time,



00:03:41.355 --> 00:03:45.735


Kevin Lowe: your energy, your dreams and desires all being put on the line.



00:03:46.275 --> 00:03:49.255


Kevin Lowe: It's you having a dream, an idea,



00:03:49.875 --> 00:03:55.495


Kevin Lowe: a spark, something that you believe in so deeply, something that you know is



00:03:55.495 --> 00:04:01.315


Kevin Lowe: part of you so much that it is designed for you, that you're willing to put it all on the line.



00:04:01.535 --> 00:04:03.595


Kevin Lowe: You're willing to bet on yourself.



00:04:03.855 --> 00:04:08.195


Kevin Lowe: Because the fact is true is that sometimes in order for us to make a dream come



00:04:08.195 --> 00:04:11.175


Kevin Lowe: true, we have to be willing to be all in.



00:04:11.535 --> 00:04:14.975


Kevin Lowe: You know the saying, you're either all in or you're not.



00:04:15.775 --> 00:04:21.815


Kevin Lowe: And so many times we spend our lives with one foot in and one foot out.



00:04:21.995 --> 00:04:25.475


Kevin Lowe: We try to remain comfortable. We try to remain safe.



00:04:25.635 --> 00:04:30.715


Kevin Lowe: But sometimes, my friend, you just got to throw your hands in the air and you got to go with it.



00:04:30.955 --> 00:04:37.875


Kevin Lowe: The honest truth is you have to be willing sometimes to put yourself out there all the way to the edge.



00:04:38.095 --> 00:04:42.075


Kevin Lowe: Where even though you may fail, that's okay.



00:04:42.415 --> 00:04:45.315


Kevin Lowe: Because you're willing to run that risk.



00:04:45.735 --> 00:04:50.055


Kevin Lowe: You're willing to take that risk. You're willing to take the chance of failure



00:04:50.055 --> 00:04:52.815


Kevin Lowe: because you believe in it so much.



00:04:53.515 --> 00:04:57.075


Kevin Lowe: Now, I guess you would like to ask the question, now, how do I know,



00:04:57.175 --> 00:04:59.015


Kevin Lowe: though, if I'm ready to bet on myself?



00:04:59.515 --> 00:05:02.315


Kevin Lowe: Well, if you're at a point in your life where you're not happy,



00:05:02.375 --> 00:05:04.135


Kevin Lowe: you're feeling stagnant,



00:05:04.175 --> 00:05:09.675


Kevin Lowe: you're feeling bored, you're feeling like you're meant to be doing more with



00:05:09.675 --> 00:05:15.975


Kevin Lowe: your life, You feel like there's more opportunity out there that you're just not harnessing.



00:05:16.075 --> 00:05:21.175


Kevin Lowe: Well, my friend, that's a perfect opportunity for you to start investing in you.



00:05:22.050 --> 00:05:26.870


Kevin Lowe: If we go back to the story of James Bracken for a moment, he came to a point



00:05:26.870 --> 00:05:30.510


Kevin Lowe: in his life where he started asking those big questions.



00:05:31.130 --> 00:05:36.430


Kevin Lowe: Why am I here? And what am I supposed to do with this life? How can I leave



00:05:36.430 --> 00:05:37.790


Kevin Lowe: a bigger impact on the world?



00:05:38.050 --> 00:05:43.950


Kevin Lowe: And so at 17 years old, he made a massive investment in a coaching program,



00:05:44.190 --> 00:05:47.170


Kevin Lowe: an investment bigger than the money he had in the bank.



00:05:47.430 --> 00:05:53.790


Kevin Lowe: And yet he just knew it was so. He knew that if he did this one thing,



00:05:53.970 --> 00:05:56.730


Kevin Lowe: it was the key to unlock a door of opportunity.



00:05:57.110 --> 00:06:03.850


Kevin Lowe: He was willing to bet on himself. And so, James, he went all in on a dream that



00:06:03.850 --> 00:06:05.990


Kevin Lowe: could have very easily crashed and burned.



00:06:06.210 --> 00:06:11.510


Kevin Lowe: He could have left himself embarrassed, discouraged that things didn't work out the way he thought.



00:06:11.790 --> 00:06:15.270


Kevin Lowe: But he went for it anyway because he believed in a dream.



00:06:15.530 --> 00:06:20.310


Kevin Lowe: And I have to think that he believed in himself. so much that he was willing



00:06:20.310 --> 00:06:22.850


Kevin Lowe: to bet on himself, and that he did.



00:06:23.190 --> 00:06:27.950


Kevin Lowe: And that's what I love about James' story, is he may have not felt ready.



00:06:28.110 --> 00:06:31.790


Kevin Lowe: He may have felt like he was too young to become a life coach.



00:06:31.850 --> 00:06:36.910


Kevin Lowe: He could have felt like, ah, it's not worth the risk. What are people going



00:06:36.910 --> 00:06:39.290


Kevin Lowe: to say about me? What are people going to think?



00:06:39.670 --> 00:06:42.850


Kevin Lowe: And therefore, he could have not done anything. But in fact,



00:06:42.930 --> 00:06:45.650


Kevin Lowe: the opposite is true, is he did do something.



00:06:45.850 --> 00:06:50.190


Kevin Lowe: He did take the leap. he took the chance he bet on himself.



00:06:50.510 --> 00:06:55.090


Kevin Lowe: In essence, you could say that James, he was willing to burn the boats.



00:06:55.290 --> 00:06:58.690


Kevin Lowe: He was ready to take the island knowing that he would conquer it,



00:06:58.790 --> 00:07:01.310


Kevin Lowe: that there were no boats to return to.



00:07:02.083 --> 00:07:09.523


Kevin Lowe: And my friend, the fact is true for you is once you make a commitment that big, whether emotionally,



00:07:09.963 --> 00:07:13.443


Kevin Lowe: financially, or just a promise to yourself,



00:07:13.783 --> 00:07:18.223


Kevin Lowe: then you're willing to fight like hell to be sure you make it come true,



00:07:18.223 --> 00:07:25.363


Kevin Lowe: that you be sure that you get every ounce of juice out of it because you know it is for you.



00:07:25.703 --> 00:07:28.143


Kevin Lowe: You put in the effort. You put in the money.



00:07:28.543 --> 00:07:33.303


Kevin Lowe: You made the investment. You are putting in the time, you're doing the work.



00:07:33.483 --> 00:07:37.463


Kevin Lowe: So therefore, you're going to get out of it what you put into it.



00:07:37.583 --> 00:07:45.063


Kevin Lowe: So my friend, if you want a definition or a meaning behind betting on yourself, that is it.



00:07:45.443 --> 00:07:50.403


Kevin Lowe: It's you believing in yourself so much that you're willing to make the investment,



00:07:50.743 --> 00:07:51.963


Kevin Lowe: whether that's financially,



00:07:52.343 --> 00:07:57.043


Kevin Lowe: whether that's time, energy, whatever it is, you're willing to make the investment



00:07:57.043 --> 00:08:02.543


Kevin Lowe: in you because you believe in you for the greater good of the dream that you are chasing.



00:08:02.863 --> 00:08:07.383


Kevin Lowe: But now let's shift directions because let's look at it from the other side.



00:08:07.563 --> 00:08:11.203


Kevin Lowe: Let's look at it from the side that happens to most people.



00:08:11.443 --> 00:08:16.503


Kevin Lowe: Because what if you do what most people do and you decide to not go for it?



00:08:16.683 --> 00:08:18.663


Kevin Lowe: You decide to not bet on yourself.



00:08:19.343 --> 00:08:25.643


Kevin Lowe: Most people, they play it safe. They wait on somebody else to open the door for them.



00:08:25.863 --> 00:08:30.863


Kevin Lowe: Or even worse, they rather stay comfortable and they never even open the door.



00:08:31.003 --> 00:08:36.023


Kevin Lowe: They never even try to open the door to see what lies on the other side because



00:08:36.023 --> 00:08:38.883


Kevin Lowe: they choose comfort. They choose ease.



00:08:39.203 --> 00:08:45.123


Kevin Lowe: They choose peace of mind over this idea of there being something more for them.



00:08:45.423 --> 00:08:49.243


Kevin Lowe: And this brings me to the part where I want you to be sure that you're listening.



00:08:49.243 --> 00:08:52.183


Kevin Lowe: If you've tuned out if you've kind of.



00:08:53.009 --> 00:08:56.209


Kevin Lowe: Got busy washing dishes, doing something else?



00:08:56.369 --> 00:08:59.929


Kevin Lowe: I want you to really listen in here because what I'm about to say is the most



00:08:59.929 --> 00:09:03.429


Kevin Lowe: important thing that I want you to get from this entire episode.



00:09:03.809 --> 00:09:11.049


Kevin Lowe: The regret of not doing something is far worse than even the worst bruise you get from failing.



00:09:11.469 --> 00:09:16.409


Kevin Lowe: If you never take the chance, if you never choose to dance, then you will never



00:09:16.409 --> 00:09:19.169


Kevin Lowe: get to experience what lies on the other side.



00:09:19.949 --> 00:09:24.949


Kevin Lowe: My friend, do not live your life full of regret because having regret,



00:09:24.949 --> 00:09:26.789


Kevin Lowe: it will eat your life away.



00:09:27.189 --> 00:09:32.649


Kevin Lowe: You will spend restless nights. You will spend days not living up to your fullest



00:09:32.649 --> 00:09:36.569


Kevin Lowe: potential because you are weighed down with the heaviness of regret.



00:09:37.009 --> 00:09:41.829


Kevin Lowe: Do not set yourself up for a life of regret. If you have a dream, chase it.



00:09:41.969 --> 00:09:46.409


Kevin Lowe: If you have an idea, I want you to pursue it. If you feel like you are made



00:09:46.409 --> 00:09:50.149


Kevin Lowe: for more, then my friend, I want you to start betting on yourself.



00:09:50.969 --> 00:09:55.189


Kevin Lowe: Now, if you're wondering how to even get started, let's give you a head start.



00:09:55.429 --> 00:10:02.429


Kevin Lowe: I got three ideas to have you figuring out how you can begin to bet on yourself, to invest in yourself.



00:10:02.629 --> 00:10:07.569


Kevin Lowe: And it all starts with, well, number one, I want you to begin to focus on your



00:10:07.569 --> 00:10:09.249


Kevin Lowe: own personal growth and development.



00:10:09.489 --> 00:10:14.289


Kevin Lowe: I know that may sound cheesy, corny, kind of boring, but trust me,



00:10:14.429 --> 00:10:18.009


Kevin Lowe: it's kind of easy. It's simple. And once I explain, you'll be like,



00:10:18.209 --> 00:10:20.789


Kevin Lowe: ah, yeah, that's not such a big deal.



00:10:21.209 --> 00:10:26.069


Kevin Lowe: I want you to make it part of your daily routine to start focusing on you.



00:10:26.549 --> 00:10:30.089


Kevin Lowe: It's something you read. It's something you watch. It's something you listen



00:10:30.089 --> 00:10:32.369


Kevin Lowe: to. Or maybe it's even something you do.



00:10:32.729 --> 00:10:38.189


Kevin Lowe: It's a book. It's a video series. It's a podcast. It's a class you sign up for.



00:10:38.875 --> 00:10:43.875


Kevin Lowe: It's something that has you growing, that has you learning, that has you leaving



00:10:43.875 --> 00:10:51.655


Kevin Lowe: each and every day feeling like, huh, I just learned something today or feeling like, wow,



00:10:51.975 --> 00:10:56.155


Kevin Lowe: I feel like I have a greater understanding of this aspect of life,



00:10:56.355 --> 00:10:57.975


Kevin Lowe: of this aspect of the world.



00:10:58.395 --> 00:11:02.675


Kevin Lowe: Each day you're becoming a bigger, better version of you.



00:11:03.155 --> 00:11:07.735


Kevin Lowe: Now, number two is if you want to make some big moves in your life,



00:11:07.935 --> 00:11:11.115


Kevin Lowe: then my friend, you got to be willing to put some skin in the game.



00:11:11.415 --> 00:11:18.255


Kevin Lowe: Whether it's a coach or a course, a class, whatever it is, when you pay, you pay attention.



00:11:18.695 --> 00:11:23.995


Kevin Lowe: When you invest time or money, you are going to show up.



00:11:24.315 --> 00:11:27.235


Kevin Lowe: Now, I'm not talking about the need to break the bank.



00:11:27.595 --> 00:11:30.075


Kevin Lowe: No. Matter of fact, it doesn't even have to be money.



00:11:30.635 --> 00:11:35.495


Kevin Lowe: Maybe it's you just guaranteeing that you're showing up. You're devoting an



00:11:35.495 --> 00:11:38.175


Kevin Lowe: hour every day to whatever it is.



00:11:38.455 --> 00:11:40.455


Kevin Lowe: You are making that commitment.



00:11:40.855 --> 00:11:45.595


Kevin Lowe: So whether it's financial or it's your time, your promise to yourself,



00:11:45.835 --> 00:11:49.615


Kevin Lowe: to a friend, you have to show up. You have to do it.



00:11:50.155 --> 00:11:55.895


Kevin Lowe: And until you are willing to put skin in the game, then it's going to be too



00:11:55.895 --> 00:12:01.455


Kevin Lowe: easy for you to back out. for you to just say, ah, no, I'm not going to worry about it today.



00:12:02.075 --> 00:12:05.575


Kevin Lowe: No, that is not how you're going to make any forward momentum.



00:12:06.455 --> 00:12:12.615


Kevin Lowe: So sometimes you got to be willing to make an investment in you by putting a little skin in the game.



00:12:13.363 --> 00:12:19.363


Kevin Lowe: My last little tip for you, number three, is that your mindset deserves your attention.



00:12:19.943 --> 00:12:23.303


Kevin Lowe: You might like to think that your mindset isn't much of anything,



00:12:23.303 --> 00:12:25.403


Kevin Lowe: but my friend, your mindset is everything.



00:12:25.823 --> 00:12:30.503


Kevin Lowe: So I encourage you to begin to work on your mindset. This might be as simple



00:12:30.503 --> 00:12:35.663


Kevin Lowe: as you to start journaling, whether that's actually writing things down or just



00:12:35.663 --> 00:12:39.803


Kevin Lowe: doing a simple audio journal using the Notes app on your iPhone.



00:12:40.183 --> 00:12:45.443


Kevin Lowe: Or maybe you want to take it to a whole other level. And maybe you want to sign up for therapy.



00:12:46.003 --> 00:12:50.503


Kevin Lowe: There's so many options for therapy now, whether it's online or in person.



00:12:50.583 --> 00:12:52.843


Kevin Lowe: I want you to start to focus on you.



00:12:53.403 --> 00:12:58.443


Kevin Lowe: Maybe start to take up a daily practice of yoga or meditation.



00:12:59.043 --> 00:13:02.763


Kevin Lowe: There's so many different ways that you can focus on your own mindset.



00:13:03.243 --> 00:13:06.423


Kevin Lowe: Because if your mind is cluttered with doubt, well, then my friend,



00:13:06.623 --> 00:13:11.923


Kevin Lowe: we have to get clear of that doubt. We have to get clear of the clutter in order



00:13:11.923 --> 00:13:17.643


Kevin Lowe: to make room for all the good stuff, for all the beliefs that we have in what you're capable of.



00:13:18.103 --> 00:13:23.683


Kevin Lowe: You have to be willing to go all in physically and mentally.



00:13:24.363 --> 00:13:27.863


Kevin Lowe: Now that I completed those three little tactical tips for you,



00:13:28.003 --> 00:13:32.683


Kevin Lowe: let me come back and speak to you just one-on-one because I understand this



00:13:32.683 --> 00:13:36.843


Kevin Lowe: idea of betting on yourself is scary. It's easier said than done.



00:13:37.543 --> 00:13:41.563


Kevin Lowe: There's going to be people in your life who are going to doubt you,



00:13:41.863 --> 00:13:43.983


Kevin Lowe: who may even try to put you down.



00:13:44.223 --> 00:13:49.043


Kevin Lowe: My friend, I want you to realize that those people are there.



00:13:49.343 --> 00:13:53.963


Kevin Lowe: And I want you to be able to not let them stop you.



00:13:54.423 --> 00:13:59.623


Kevin Lowe: Matter of fact, I want you to use that as fuel to keep you pushing forward even harder.



00:14:00.223 --> 00:14:05.843


Kevin Lowe: And you may be scared because this idea of failure. What if it doesn't work?



00:14:06.594 --> 00:14:11.574


Kevin Lowe: Well, I turn the question around and say, what if you never even try?



00:14:11.874 --> 00:14:15.934


Kevin Lowe: If you want my opinion, I think that's a much bigger risk to take,



00:14:16.074 --> 00:14:17.554


Kevin Lowe: is you never even trying.



00:14:17.934 --> 00:14:22.174


Kevin Lowe: If you are not willing to bet on yourself, then who is?



00:14:22.534 --> 00:14:26.554


Kevin Lowe: There is no perfect moment. There is no perfect time.



00:14:26.894 --> 00:14:32.574


Kevin Lowe: So why not make that right now, today? Right now, before I even end this episode,



00:14:32.894 --> 00:14:38.794


Kevin Lowe: I want you to declare to yourself that I am willing to bet on me, that I am worth it.



00:14:38.854 --> 00:14:44.114


Kevin Lowe: I am worthy. I am deserving of me putting down the money on me.



00:14:44.334 --> 00:14:47.634


Kevin Lowe: I'm going to end today's episode by offering you a challenge.



00:14:47.934 --> 00:14:55.914


Kevin Lowe: I want you to take one bold step forward, one action step towards you truly betting on yourself.



00:14:56.074 --> 00:14:58.754


Kevin Lowe: I'm talking about you enrolling in that class.



00:14:59.294 --> 00:15:01.694


Kevin Lowe: Maybe it's as simple as you purchasing that book.



00:15:02.394 --> 00:15:06.694


Kevin Lowe: Maybe it's you getting out your calendar and marking down time each day that



00:15:06.694 --> 00:15:09.654


Kevin Lowe: you're going to focus on your own personal growth and development goals.



00:15:10.194 --> 00:15:15.734


Kevin Lowe: Or maybe it's you getting out a jar and putting money in it that's going to



00:15:15.734 --> 00:15:19.254


Kevin Lowe: go towards the thing you know that you need to do.



00:15:19.414 --> 00:15:24.714


Kevin Lowe: Maybe it's hiring a coach. It's signing up for that one program online that



00:15:24.714 --> 00:15:27.714
