The Miracle Equation The Two Decisions That Move Your Biggest Goals from Possible, to Probable, to Inevitable

Hal Elrod (@HalElrod) has overcome two near-death experiences, is the bestselling author of The Miracle Morning, and his latest book, The Miracle Equation: The Two Decisions That Move Your Biggest Goals from Possible, to Probable, to Inevitable, is out now.

You now talk about the miracle equation. I know you're leaning into this miracle thing pretty heavy duty. I get it. It's been successful for you in the past.

So the miracle equation, what's interesting is so like what you said is to me public perception, what it would be, right? Which is like, oh, I was into this like the miracle morning did so well. He's now spinning off this miracle brand, right?

But the idea that we put forth this effort on a consistent basis is of course nothing super new.

The subtitle of the book really a kind of teaches what it's after which is the two decisions that move your biggest goals from possible to probable to inevitable.

But then I look back and I'm like oh that's why I was able to walk again even though I you know I they said I wouldn't when I would had cancer and this was literally the first day that I was diagnosed with cancer so I mean if you can imagine if you're listening you're giving a 30% chance of surviving and and for me it was way harder than the accident because I have two kids now right I had a I have a nine-year-old in the six-year-old so then there were seven and four and the thought of losing my kids and leaving they're not losing my kids but leaving them without a dad right and leaving my wife that a husband like that's the most horrific scary thought or possibility in my life.

kind of with the new book the miracle equation it goes back to the adage that they're the quote or whatever you want to call it the harder you work the luckier you get right and so I really would instead of luck I would call it you know serendipity almost it's like and because it's happened so consistently so many times based on when I you know the way I approach life with this this mindset these two decisions that we talk about are going to talk about is it's like I feel like these are what unlock that luck that serendipity.

So tell us about the new book and the new equation because I actually really like the simplicity of this you study a lot of achievers innovators and some of this to be fair seems like it's survivor bias because we're hearing from people who are successful because they've done a lot of the things that we talked about and they had their morning routine or whatever there are plenty of people that follow that they'll like live in their mom's basement right yeah so how do we know that this stuff is actually working and not just sometimes it works for people who are already going to be successful.

The miracle equation was something that I created six years before the miracle morning when I was in sales. I was 20 years old.

The subtitle of the book really a kind of teaches what it's after which is the two decisions that move your biggest goals from possible to probable to inevitable.

The miracle equation is how I walked again after my car accident, although I didn't come up with miracle equation until two years later.

I said look this is this formula that I have used to defy the odds in the past and I've done it with so so many times and it's worked for everyone I've taught it to.

The two decisions are like I said deceptively simple in their explanation but they're even more rare in their execution.
