Ryan Hanley - Finding Peak

My circle is very small.

Not because I don’t like people…

This is a relatively new aspect of my life.

I find people fascinating.

And because of this, I’ve always been around a lot of people and had tons of “friends.”

But at 44, I’ve realized that we are impacted by every person we spend time with…

You don’t get to choose whether someone’s energy impacts you or not. Everyone, every day, every time…

Protecting who you spend time is an essential hack for creating a better life.

That negative person you make time for? Their energy is impacting you.

But this is also true if the positive, energetic people…

Choose your room, choose your destiny.

This is the way.

Create the Things You Wish Existed

Whether that’s an AI-native insurance agency, new restaurant concept or leadership coaching program…

The world needs builders.

Our culture too often rewards destroyers.

👉 The snarky commenter online.
👉 The institution fighting for regulatory capture so startups get strangled in red tape.
👉 The leader who would rather play it safe then let their high-performers run.

But builders…

The Muse rewards builders in serendipitous ways…* Fulfillment,
* Meaning,
* Purpose,
* Growth,
* Expansion.

George Bernard Shaw said it best, “The reasonable man adapts himself to the world: the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.”

Be that unreasonable builder.

The world is depending on you.

This is the way.

You’re not doing it for the applause anyway, right?!

Because you won’t get the applause when you need it.

You won’t get the applause until it’s meaningless.

Accept this reality and keep moving forward.

This is the way.

It took me a long time to learn this lesson.

The book No More Mr Nice Guy, by Dr Robert Glover, blew me away.

It was a retelling of my life.

Trauma born “Nice Guy Syndrome.”

Always pleasing others, never getting what I wanted out of any relationship or situation.

I’m still a good guy.

But only nice when appropriate and warranted.

…and sometimes, I’m a bad MFer.

Who else is a recovering “Nice Guy?”

This is the way.

My personal definition of anxiety…

“Anxiety is the distance between who you are and who you are supposed to be…”

What do you think?

Unfortunately the hard way of dealing with anxiety is the only way.

This is the way.

Do not conform.

To do so, is to live a life you didn’t choose.

God did not put you on this earth to conform.

Dylan Thomas taught us this…

“Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.”

This is the way.

Impossible is a construct.

👉 Human flight was impossible.
👉 Putting a man on the moon was impossible.
👉 The 4 minute mile was impossible.

Imagine if the life you want was there for the taking, all you had to do was believe?

So, do you believe?

This is the way.

Does it matter?

This is a trap far too many leaders and owners fall into…optimizing systems and processes that shouldn’t exist in the first place.

Optimization work comes at a cost…

Before traveling down that path, stop and ask yourself, “Does this matter? Why do we need this optimized?”

Some quick reflection can save your business a massive amount of times and resources.

This is part of the Reality OS (Operating System) I teach my coaching clients.

DM me to learn more…

This is the way.

Ask better questions, live a better life.

Simple, not easy.

This is the way.
