Curious about how I used lockdown as a chance to jumpstart two major Bucket List items? Dive into my full journey here: Read the full blog

Book 30/52 of My #52Books52Weeks Bucket List Challenge

I’m a big fan of Ed Mylett, so picking up Maxout Your Life was a no-brainer. This book is short, sharp, and straight to the point—just like Ed himself. But don’t let its size fool you. It’s packed with powerful mindset shifts and high-performance strategies that can help you level up in every area of life.

Ed’s story is inspiring—he went from broke and struggling to one of the top business leaders and motivational speakers in the world. And in this book, he lays out exactly how he did it.

Key Lessons from Maxout Your Life

1. Your Identity Sets the Limit for Your Success

  • If you see yourself as a 7/10 in life, business, or fitness, you’ll always find a way to stay at that level.

  • To max out your life, you need to raise your self-image and believe you deserve more.

2. Work on Your Confidence Daily

  • Confidence doesn’t come from success—it comes from keeping the promises you make to yourself.

  • Show up. Do the work. Prove to yourself that you’re unstoppable.

3. You Are Always One Decision Away from Changing Your Life

  • Your entire future can change with just one decision, one moment, or one opportunity.

  • Always stay ready, because the next big thing is right around the corner.

4. Who You Surround Yourself With is Everything

  • If you hang around average thinkers, you’ll get average results.

  • Surround yourself with people who challenge you, push you, and force you to level up.

5. Max Out Your Effort – No More Half-Measures

  • Whether it’s in business, fitness, or relationships—go all in.

  • The difference between good and great is often just a little more effort and consistency.

How Maxout Your Life Relates to Living a Bucket List Life

  1. Raise Your Standards – You can’t live an extraordinary life with ordinary thinking.

  2. Confidence = Freedom – The more you trust yourself, the easier it is to take risks and chase your Bucket List goals.

  3. Be Ready for Your Moment – Your next big opportunity could be right in front of you—don’t miss it.

  4. Level Up Your Circle – If you want to achieve more, hang out with people who are already doing it.

  5. Go All In on Your Dreams – Stop waiting for the perfect time—max out your life NOW.

This book is a quick read, but an absolute powerhouse. If you need a kick in the ass to push past your limits and start operating at your highest level, I can’t recommend Maxout Your Life enough.

Stay tuned for Book 31 of 52 as I continue this adventure of learning and growth!
