You know, everyone has their disabilities, let's say, and I know that some people are far more terribly affected than other people, but the question is what do you do about that and what you do is you You set yourself up on your damn crutches and you struggle up the bloody hill. That's what you do and you struggle up the hill towards the kingdom of God That's what you do because the alternative is to descend into the abyss. That's the alternative and then so to say well do you believe it's like I believe that you should should struggle uphill towards the city of God on your crutches. That's what you should do. That's the opposite of the descent into the abyss. And so that's at the foundation of our civilization, that idea. Argue with it, if you will. See if you can figure out why that's not an acceptable idea. Maybe you should help someone struggle up the hill. Perhaps you should. You know, you can lend a hand to

someone all that you don't want to take the burden away from them entirely because there's something noble about struggling up the damn hill right there's something that's adventure that's the call to proper being it's like well we don't need to forget this no one's coming back to help so it starts with that person in that merit you have to realize you are on your own now i don't care what you believe in but on earth is a very lonely journey the price for a full life is mistakes. Mistakes are the price for a full life that you have to pay if you learn from them. I believe that hell wants to main you and mock you with your mistakes. But heaven wants to make you and transform you by your mistakes. Failure

should not become a prison house where you're held hostage the rest of your life by your mistakes. That's not God's voice, that's not God's wheel, that's not God's plan for you. And I'm not naive. And you don't take pride in what you do, but the thing about loving the process, everybody wants to prize, but nobody loves the process. Everybody wants to be a champion, but nobody's willing to put in the work that it takes to be a champion. Everybody wants to hold up the trophy and say, man, I get it, but nobody's wanting to put in the work that it takes to do it. The process. I love the thought of working for what I want. And I firmly believe you never supposed to wish for it more than you're willing to work for.

Who you are. Go back generation. Find out if you are following the same curses. Pain is a repetition of the psyche. Walking by faith. That's walking by cycle. If I can see it, I'll do it. No, no, no, no, no.

That's a lot of people saying, if I can see it, I'll believe it. No, no, no. If you believe it, you can see it. Don't be disturbed because no one else can see it. That's not unusual. That is ordinary. But because you want some different kind of results in your life, you've got to be willing to be unreasonable.

But a lot of people they wish, and they're not willing to work. And the great thing about life, life has a funny way of testing all of us and seeing how bad we really want what it is that we say we want. But life is going to hit you in a certain level of opposition. Life is going to hit you with a certain level of adversity, and life is going to say to you, you said you wanted it. Now let's see how bad you really want it. I want one thing from me.

As great as you are, as skilled as you are, as talented as you are, I just want one thing from me. Never allowed life to make you forget why you do what you do. You have to find a dream that's so big that it overwhelms all of your fears and causes you to never give up. Now you're going to think about quitting no matter what you do. I've thought about it many times. Until you learn how to figure it out, until you learn how to tap it on the back and say, I know you there, but I'm built. I don't want nobody to leave here today and not understand why we must.

find a way to push through pain to understand that's on the other side of that it's glory. And it starts with the accountability mirror, looking at saying, hey, all these things are coming back. I have to face myself. And you have to own all those things that people may have done to you. Now it's yours. You got to own it. It's yours now to fix the problems that people did to you. It makes no sense.

It's not fair. I get it. But if you live in that woe was me mentality of guess what? My dad did this to me. My mom just did to me. People who bullied did this to me. You're going to always live right there. You have to figure out ways to move forward because you're not coming back. People don't burn out. People don't quit. People don't underachieve. People don't settle because of what they do. People burn out. People quit. People underachieve. And people settle because life makes them forget why they do it. If we respect it the way we say we respect it. If we love it the way we say we love it, if we cherish it the way we say we do it.

cherished you, every single day should be nothing less than excellent. You might not always be your best, but you can always bring me your best. Not happiness, forget about that. If it comes, well, great, accept it. Dignity, nobility, character, truth, responsibility, beauty, those are the things to aim for. To life is straight and narrow and few there be that find it, because few there be that are willing to do the things today others won't do in order to have the things tomorrow others won't have
