Heroes!

Michael here. 👋

Happy Sunday.

Are you feeling what we’re feeling?!

Kinda like what these guys/gals/minions are feeling??

This is the final Weekly Brief of 2024…

And I don’t think I’ve EVER been more excited for the New Year season than I am right now.

(Only ~2.43 DAYS AWAY!!!)

We’re launching a brand new Heroic Wisdom Daily on Jan 1: with the best insights from 365 books in just 1 minute a day—free for you and all your family and friends. (Just forward them this email and have them sign up here!)

Plus THE most practical, results-oriented training program we’ve ever created: Heroic Elite.

People are ALREADY starting to experience transformations… just by signing up! 🤯 (Just check out some of the recent shares on Heroic social.)

And there are now just over TWO DAYS LEFT to SAVE $100 (plus another $100 if you bring a friend!) by joining Elite before Dec 31st at midnight PST.

Much more on Elite below, including the new Starter Guide, videos, nutrition guidance, and more.

We also saw a couple of incredible media shout-outs on the work we are blessed to do with Notre Dame football. ☘️🏈

Video and article below.

Let’s get to it!

2. Go Irish! ☘️ 🏈

On Day 1 of their preseason, we had the honor and privilege of working with the players and coaches of Notre Dame Football.

This past week, our work together was highlighted in a televised press conference and in an article in the South Bend Tribune.

We’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching the Irish perform at an elite level, activating their potential and demonstrating antifragility over the course of the season.

It’s also not surprising.

Coach Marcus Freeman is an astonishingly powerful, humble, loving, radiantly alive man who practices his philosophy, leading the entire organization and everyone in it to be their best.

We look forward to seeing them continue to activate their potential this season and beyond!

Again, check out the article for more.

And go Irish! 🍀

3. Heroic Elite Daily

We’re now just 14 days away from Day 1 of Heroic Elite!

As of yesterday, we also started sharing daily emails—Heroic Elite Daily—counting down the days and helping all Elite participants get the most out of our 101-day training program and truly activate their best, most Heroically elite self.

Those daily emails will continue for everyone in the program, re-emphasizing key concepts and helping us go deeper over the course of the 101-day program.

For now, whether or not you’re in Heroic Elite (yet!), we hope you enjoy the preview and that you get inspiration and tools you can apply to your life!

If you want to start (or stop) receiving those, just look for the email update preferences in the footer of the emails.

And if you’ve been thinking about joining… move from “thinking” to “doing” pretty soon because the $100 EARLYBIRD discount ends when 2024 does: Dec 31st at Midnight!!!

5. Community highlights

A few favorites from another week of moving from Theory to Practice to Mastery, Together!!!

  • Kare demonstrating antifragility while completing 2024-mile challenge: “Back in early January 2024 I set a goal to do 2024 miles either walking, running, biking, or rowing… I followed Brian’s advise to set it up to win - hence the multiple ways to achieve my mileage… As of yesterday’s 14 mile bike ride, I hit and exceeded my goal by 5 miles. That’s like me! This is particularly meaningful to me because I have face d the hardest year ever (and that is saying something).”
  • Kerri preparing for Elite: “Getting dialed in for Elite, deactivated social media accounts now in preparation. Ready to see just how much I can accomplish in 101 days!”
  • Steve going from deflated to activated by joining Elite: “Up until a few weeks ago, I’ve been feeling deflated - not an overwhelming sense of depression, but an apathy that comes from trying to numb yourself from a future you’d rather not think about because it feels too ambiguous… It’s not that every day was like this, but there were enough to lose momentum on my commitments. Well, one day as I was checking my email for the 6th time in 20 minutes, I [read] one from Brian: “101 replies in <101 minutes = 😳 🤯” - which got me curious. I opened it up and BOOM something clicked.”

+1. Wisdom from the week:

“To practice courage, compassion, and connection is to look at life and the people around us, and say, 'I’m all in.’”

— Brené Brown

And this week’s Heroic +1s:

This week’s featured Meditation is Transforming Resistance, a 7 minute meditation designed to help you alchemize resistance into purposeful action (Available in app only.)
