Episode Highlights:

[08:16] How Adversity Brings with It The Seed of Opportunity

Having lost everything in a failed business venture, Trevor found himself at rock bottom. However, it was during this difficult time that he discovered real estate investing, a path he had never considered before. Taking a chance, Trevor purchased his first property, igniting a successful career in real estate and coaching. He emphasizes that although pain and adversity are challenging, they push us outside our comfort zones, opening us up to new possibilities. Adversity forces us to reinvent ourselves and explore alternative paths, leading to the discovery of untapped talents and opportunities we may have never considered. Trevor's story serves as a reminder that within every challenge lies hidden potential, waiting to be embraced with courage and determination.

[46:18] The Law of Familiarity

The law of familiarity states that when we feel something is familiar to us, we tend to like it and do more of it. Trevor discusses this law when talking about Geno Smith's journey in the NFL. Even when Smith was a backup quarterback, he would practice plays and scenarios as if he was the starter, to make the experience feel familiar. This helped him stay ready and prepared for his opportunity. Trevor believes modeling other successful people is a way to feel familiar with achieving similar results. As we expose ourselves to strategies, mindsets and habits of high performers, they start to feel familiar and we are more likely to implement them in our own lives. In this way, the law of familiarity can help us accelerate our learning and progress towards our goals.

State - Your state is your focus, language, and how you're showing up mentally and physically. Trevor shares how shifting your physiology through movement can positively impact your state.

Story - He says your story is your identity - are you operating from a victim or victor mindset? Trevor talks about leaving behind identities that are holding you back.

Standards - Trevor stresses the importance of continually raising the bar for yourself across different areas of your life. Whereas others are satisfied, champions demand more of themselves.

Strategy - Trevor defines strategy as having clarity on your desired outcome, why you want it, and what actions to take. With the right strategy, your goals feel achievable and within reach.
