If you’re wondering why life feels stuck on repeat, look no further than the standards you enforce – or fail to. Standards aren’t lofty wishes scribbled in a journal. They’re the invisible lines you draw every day between what you accept and what you refuse to tolerate. They shape how you treat yourself, how you show up for others, and what you expect in return.
Low standards breed excuses, sloppy habits, and mediocre results. High standards, consistently lived, spark transformation. Today, we explore the real cost of the standards you’ve set – often unconsciously – and the hidden power you hold to raise them. Because nothing changes until you do.
In this episode you’ll learn:
Your standards, not intentions, ultimately shape the reality you experience daily. Low standards create excuses, poor habits, and mediocre results in life. Raising standards begins with deciding what you’ll no longer tolerate anymore. Standards show up everywhere: health, relationships, business, and personal behaviour. Leadership demands congruence – living the standards you expect from everyone else. Mediocrity thrives where standards are vague, inconsistent, or quietly compromised over time.
