Legacy Is The Long Game: Build It Daily or Lose It Forever

Welcome back to another episode of Man vs Marriage.

This Episode is in our Big Picture Deep Dive series.

Legacy is an impact made on you that inspires you to become a better version of who you are. It makes an impact positive or negative.

I learned a valuable lesson when I coached HS Football. What I did today would affect my tomorrow and my future. However, when you are building something you will not see it as a fully formed or finished project until the project meets its completion.

Until now you may not have recognized that you have the opportunity to make an impact on human history in an historic fashion. It’s what I called “Placing a Demand on History” — doing the work with excellence no matter the outcome, which is almost always out of your control. What is within your control are the things you are directly responsible for — my process: Focus on what you can affect.

Placing a demand on history means walking out your purpose, doing the work in such a manner that who you are and what you have done becomes undeniable. In essence, it is your Legacy.

Legacy is the long game — built by daily execution, not perfection.

Main Show Content Legacy is the long game — built by daily execution, not perfection. It is being built by passivity or by purpose. By excuses or by execution. It outlives us once our time on this earth has come to a close. It’s your Legacy. Your approach to life and legacy is being watched by your family, but the real work happens when no one else is looking. That congruency and commitment to integrity gives you internal credibility so when the tough times come you walk through the fire and stand tall.

Bullet Points

  • Legacy is the long game — built by daily execution, not perfection
  • It is being built by passivity or by purpose
  • Built by excuses or by execution
  • It outlives us once our time on this earth has come to a close

Close + Call to Action Ask yourself: Are you building your legacy by purpose or passivity? How are you a man you can trust? Do you have internal credibility? Are you executing on living by excuses? Are you prepared to place a demand on history?

This week, place a demand on history. Choose one thing and execute it with excellence even when no one is watching. Share this episode with 5 men. Next week we go deeper into Jesus as the greatest legacy.

You do have to be willing.Every episode closes with the same reminder:

Because the mission is simple: Be famous where it matters most — at home.Start with the constitution episode: What Is Family Famous.

Quincy Moran

A Family Man! A Happily married man however that happiness hasn't always come easy. After 10 years of marriage and 8 children with numerous medical emergencies and family tragedy we had become roommates. Fast forward 10 years and we have become closer than either of us had ever known possible. After this amazing transformation thanks to our marriage coach Rita Enos, my wife and I decided to give back to the entire Human Race and give Men the opportunity to decide "How Good do you want your life/Marriage to be"? I am hardwired to inspire because it gives me life! It was only natural that I take this desire to inspire and my incredibly handsome face for radio to make a difference like I have experience in my own life.
