Chapters
Key points
- 01
Go all in early on purpose
If you sense what your life is supposed to be about, don't stick your toe in the water; the sooner your life gets better, the longer you get to enjoy it.
- 02
Yield before you know the purpose
Myron says the more yielded you are to your purpose before you know what it is, the sooner you'll find it; going to God with your own agenda doesn't work.
- 03
Fitting in fades with age
The younger you are the more you weigh decisions by how people will judge you; the older you get the more you realize you already stand out.
- 04
Seek clarity before saying yes
When asked to volunteer time, ask exactly what that looks like in terms of time commitment, schedule and compensation, so you know what you're saying yes or no to.
- 05
Package videos for strangers
Make the big idea, thumbnail and title for people who don't know you exist, the first 30 seconds for anyone who clicks, and the content for your ideal avatar.
- 06
Haters are not a problem to manage
Myron has been called a false prophet, a scammer and the Antichrist, and says he simply doesn't have time to care.
Lines worth keeping
“The more yielded you can be to your purpose before you know what it is, the sooner you will find it. If you go to God with your agenda, good luck with that.”
The core of his advice on going all in before you have certainty.
“It's not going to take you a while to grow a YouTube channel. It's going to take you a while to become the person who can grow the YouTube channel.”
Reframes channel growth as a skill problem, not a time problem.
“The biggest mistake in communication is thinking that it happened.”
His rule for never assuming you know what someone is asking of you.
“The taller you are, the more of a giant you are, the more likely people who feel small are going to step on you so they can feel taller.”
Explains why criticism rises with visibility rather than with wrongdoing.
“Jesus didn't have a reputation management company or campaign. He knew who he was so much he didn't need you to know who he was.”
The scriptural basis for his refusal to defend himself publicly.
What to do next
- 1
Go all in on your purpose now instead of testing the water.
The faster your life gets better, the longer you get to enjoy it.
- 2
Give God your yes before he asks.
He already knows your heart and will always invite you into more.
- 3
Choose honor over envy toward people ahead of you.
Speaking a word of honor about them unlocks and frees something in your spirit and in theirs.
- 4
Ask anyone requesting your time exactly what that looks like, including compensation.
If you assume you know what they mean, you'll answer a question they didn't ask.
- 5
Build your video packaging around a culturally relevant big idea and open loops in the first 30 seconds.
Packaging for people who don't know you exist lets your ideal clients self-identify from a wider audience.
