Everything worthwhile is uphill.
Life is difficult.
It really is.
What makes life difficult for a lot of people is they don't think life should be difficult.
And so therefore, they're looking for a quick way, a quick answer, an easy way.
There are none.
And to go uphill, you have to be attentioned.
No one ever wrote a book on accidental achievements.
Sooner later, you've got to bet on you.
You believe in everybody else.
You clap for everybody else.
You support everybody else.
You're baking cakes and making cookies for everybody else.
But when are you going to look in the mirror and believe in the darn person you see?
It's about time for you to believe in you.
Stop complaining about the results you didn't get from the work you didn't put in.
The only way to become more successful than most people is to be willing to do something most people.
aren't willing to do.
If there's something inside of you that you don't like a behavior, an emotion, a thought,
it's not you, there's nothing wrong with you.
It's a pattern.
And we can develop patterns and do them so often that we think we're our patterns.
It's just a habit, a habit of thinking, habit of emotion.
And the majority of the fears that we have are not life or death fears.
Not those kind of fears.
But through our imagination, we believe.
We blow them out of proportion, and we give them more power than they actually have or deserve,
and we permit them to govern our lives.
We permit them to determine how far we can stretch out on our dreams and discovering our stuff.
You can overcome anything except your own death.
Anything else will pass.
And when you're in the middle of it, it sometimes seems like.
like it won't pass, like your life is over.
You can only see according to your perception of things.
So unless you make a change inside, new opportunities will never come to you.
So when you make a mistake, you have to have faith that there's always a way out.
You're going to work as hard as humanly possible.
blood, sweat, and tears, and nothing's going to happen.
And the hardest part is knowing that you're going to have to show up tomorrow
and do it all over again.
But that is the process.
That pursuit of maybe today will be the day.
Showing up, not knowing when the final destination is going to arrive,
showing up regardless is what makes a champion.
Not how you achieve your dreams, is how you lead your life.
and the direction and the routine that you set it.
How focused you are on the little things,
that's how you achieve everything.
You don't focus on the big goal at the end
and have to all this hope and desire.
Like, oh, that's good.
Everybody has that.
But it's the ones that strategically put it in place
every single day that really figured it out.
You have to dance beautifully
in the box that you are comfortable dancing.
Your box, it's different to mine.
Everybody has their own.
It's your job to try to perfect it.
and make it as beautiful of a canvas as you can make it.
And if you have done that, then you have lived a successful life.
You have lived with bomb mentality.
Look into the past and realize how much progress you've made.
How much better you are today than you were before.
And let that progress fuel you to continue working towards becoming the next version of yourself.
Brother, it's the fucking journey of life.
The journey.
The process is the prize.
The prize isn't the destination.
It's the process. It's who you become.
No one is ever inspired by a movie
where the hero didn't have to overcome some great challenge
after being brought to their knees,
only to come back and claim the title.
What makes you think that your life should be any different?
That's the excitement of life,
facing challenge and overcoming it.
And in the process, discovering that there's so much more to you
than you once believed.
Life will test you.
to have a dream it's great to have a goal it's great to have a vision but in your journey on your
way to the top life will test you life really wants to weed out the people who don't truly want it
who aren't really willing to go through anything you may say you're willing to go through
anything but life will make sure that you're willing to go through anything
understand that you're just in the season and that you're going to go through many more and if it's
bad now it'll be worse later on your way to bring your pastors man and so if you just understand that it's only for
period of time and then if you keep punching long enough that you'll come out on top
I don't think there's anything in the world that any individual can't do if they
simply stick to the same fight know that they're in a season and relentlessly
refuse to do anything other than succeed and I genuinely believe that if you're
going to try go all the way otherwise don't even start if you're going to try
go all the way go all the way isolation is the gift all the others are a test
of your endurance or how much you really want to do it.
Most people know what they need to do, but very few actually do it.
We spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to get better and way less time actually
doing the work.
It all comes down to how much you want it.
Most people know what they want, but very few people want it bad enough to actually do
something about it.
So on the days where you don't feel like showing up, are you the kind of person to push past
and keep going, or are you the one looking for an excuse to take a break?
And the last thing I think about is like why not?
Like why not you?
Like why can't you achieve all the things that are in your heart and your mind?
Why can't you, you know, break that generational curse?
Why can't you get up and start taking those steps?
You know what I mean?
Why?
Like what's stopping me?
And when you really get to the root of what's stopping you,
the only thing that is truly stopping you is you, you know?
and you have the power to take that stand
and to pull one foot in front of the other,
take it day by day, step by step,
and become the person that God made you to be.
You're not what your parents tell you you are.
You're not what your friends tell you you are.
In fact, you're not even what you tell yourself you are
because you don't even truly understand your limitless potential.
So when you live in a situation where you're limited
by the opinions and the insecurities
and the projections,
of other people, what you're doing is you're limiting your potential and your growth for
self-development. And the first part is understanding that you can become whoever you want to become.
A mystery to yourself. You don't know who you are. You have patterns of behavior and you're
not even understanding that. You don't know why you're angry. You think you're angry because
that person said something mean to you or did something wrong. But in fact, your anger probably
stems from things from deep, deep within from your childhood. And you're not reacting to the
that person, but to actually your parents and what they didn't give you.
The origin of wisdom, according to the Greeks, was know thyself.
And I believe that very firmly.
That knowledge about who you are is an end in itself and will help you in so many ways
become that human being that I think we all have the potential to become.
Just all the things that you aren't willing to give up for the dreams that you have.
And that is what the person who will beat you is willing to give up.
You might slip and fall in the process of trying to achieve your goals, but you need to remember that it's all part of the journey.
You see, many people say they want to be great, but they're not willing to pay the price of greatness.
Are you willing to do what most people are not willing to do?
Are you willing to put in the work even on holidays?
Are you willing to work to perfect your craft even on weekends?
Are you willing to study and get better and grow even on the nights you're invited to those parties?
Are you willing to pay the price of greatness?
Are you willing to pay that entry fee, the cost at the door of what it takes to be great?
You don't just stumble upon greatness.
You pay the price day by day, moment by moment.
Winning didn't know my name.
Winning doesn't know who the hell you are.
You know
Winning keeps his hands in its pocket
It's going to keep its hands in his pockets
You know why? Because it doesn't want to point to anybody
Who isn't worthy
In order to see winning in all its glory
It wants to see you suffer
It wants to know what you're made of
You stay in environments
Where people don't recognize the value of you
You will shrink your gift
To the size of what they can stand
And that's what called
is anxiety and depression and stress because you have had to shrink into a form where people
can tolerate you.
I don't wait for the perfect moment.
Usually the perfect moment is now.
The right time to tell somebody that you love, that you love them when you feel it is right now.
The right time to make that contact, right now.
So I want to challenge you today.
That call you need to make, make it now.
That email you need to send, send it now.
That chapter you need to write, that copy, that funnel.
Do it now. I love knocking things off the list because that creates momentum. And the more you do this, ironically, you will develop confidence in yourself to be able to attack things in the moment.
Not just about you. It's not just about whatever you're going to get. It's about the example that you're setting for every single person around you. It's the example in your household. It's the example in your neighborhood. It's the example in your community. And if we all took that seriously, the world wouldn't look the way that it looks. You have an obligation.
to extract the potential that is within you.
You are given gifts, you are given a purpose.
You may not know what they are yet,
but it is your duty to figure out what they are.
It is your duty to become the best possible version of yourself.
And you figure out who you are and what you want to do,
and you devote your life to it like a maniac,
like you're all in on this thing.
And you manifest.
Most of these people end up doing what they say,
they're going to do it being who they say they're going to become. It's real. Okay, each and every day,
I'm just going to try to progress little by little. I'm going to try to take small, small steps each
and every day. Understanding that every day is not going to be perfect, I'm going to make mistakes,
I'm going to have days where I mess up, but that's okay because we're focused on the progress.
We're not focused on trying to be perfect. And when you focus on the progress, that means even through
mistakes, you're looking for the lessons and the ways that you can grow and progress through
the mistakes.
The important thing is that you just keep climbing.
Even when you do slide back, you're never at the bottom because you're always higher up
than when you started.
We're all participating in this thing called life, all of us.
Life has ever flows, mountains tops, it's got valleys, it's got thunderstorms, it's got thunderstorm,
in it, earthquakes, this life.
Stop expecting it to go smooth.
Because it ain't fin to go smooth.
The road to success
is always under construction.
This life ain't set up to be smooth.
I get it.
You don't feel like it.
You don't know if it's worth it.
And you know that if you do it today,
you still have to do it tomorrow.
And you still have to do it every day after that.
It's overwhelming, I know.
But every day that you do it,
get a little bit closer
for a place
that you actually want to be
and get closer
to the person
you actually want to be
the fact that it is painful
is the reason that it's working
everybody else
that has to try and step out
into this new life
faces this same thing too
every single person does
that's why most people don't do it
this is what hard feels like
and this is why most people don't win
so continuing to push through
and almost seeing that
level of discomfort
as a signal, it's like a way marker that's being planted in the ground.
Because if it was all just super easy, well, how are you going to get anything different to what
everybody else has got if you do the same thing that everybody else does?
Do you know what it takes to be a champion?
Working hard every single day without the promise that your hard work will actually pay off.
With the only guarantee being sweat and exhaustion, here's something more,
that goal you're chasing after doesn't favor you over anyone.
else. That's why you need to pay attention to the process rather than the product. Who is this
champion that's being built? That it's possible. If you tell yourself enough times that it's
possible, it can be possible. But imagine every single day instead of saying, ah, my day sucks,
instead of getting up and being like, oh, life is terrible. Imagine your entire mindset was just like,
it's possible to get to that next level. It's possible to be great. It's possible to be more
healthy in your entire perspective on life your world was positive even if you had to lie yourself
into believing that you can be fearful you can't be afraid the coward and the hero feel the same exact
emotion when confronted with a situation it's just how do you act in response to the fear the coward
is like this run the hero is like okay i see you i know you're there here's how i'm going to handle this
you know the fact that life is short and can be brutal can terrify you into
hiding and avoiding, but it can also, you can flip that on its head and understand that
since you're all in anyways, you might as well take the risks that are adventurous.
When you were born, you are a phenomenon, you are unique. Your DNA has never occurred
in the history of the universe, going back billions of years, it will never occur in the future.
Your life experiences with your parents and everything that you experience.
experience in your early years going on up is unique.
It's yours.
You're one of a kind, right?
So that is your source of power.
To waste that is just the worst thing you can do in your life.
And what the power is, is finding that uniqueness.
What makes you, you, you and how you can mind that,
and how you can go deep into it and use that.
So many people die with untapped attention
because they think that someone else is better than them.
And they were born,
you know, not with the greatest tools.
You don't need shit.
You need the ability to grind your ass into a fine, fucking powder.
And when you're in that fine powder,
find a way to build that motherfucker back up repeatedly.
It's possible.
If you hide and you don't let what's inside of you out,
and you don't bring into the world what you could bring,
and you become cynical and bitter,
you will start doing very dark things.
Not only will you not add to the world
what you could add, but you'll start being jealous of people who are competent and doing well
and work to destroy them. That's the pathway to hell. Success is the ability to go from failure
to failure to failure without a loss of enthusiasm. But that's going to be up to you because there's
not going to be anybody there to encourage you, to coach you, to push you on. You have to do it yourself.
People don't burn out because of what they do.
People burn out because life makes them forget why they do it.
Like the passion that they first had when they said, man, I'm with you.
I'm going to give you everything I got.
Whether that be sports, whether that be business, whether that be a family.
I just want people to never allow life to make them forget why they do what they do.
Right?
To never allow life to rob you of your passion.
To never allow life to rob you of your joy, your peace, your happiness.
I say chase your dreams, man.
Do that thing, man, that keeps you up at night.
That thing that bothers you, man, that makes you trip.
You can't quit thinking about it.
You always, that thing, man, that you wake up in the middle of the night, you got a new idea.
That's what you got to chase.
Who is this champion with nothing more than a burning desire in their heart to prove to no one other than themselves, I have what it takes?
And if you're sitting there wondering, am I that champion?
Let me put it this way.
You decided to listen to motivational audios rather than music.
You decided to listen to motivational audios rather than mindless background noise.
Whether you're in the gym, on the bus, just waking up, or lying on your bed, getting your thoughts together, you made the choice to pick something that would keep you in the fight.
These are the receipts you need to remember because they will remind you of who you truly are.
A champion.
live, is no you're going to die. If you're afraid to die, you'll not be able to live.
The pain of discipline or the pain of regret. Go for the discipline because it weighs ounces.
The regret weighs tons because it can accumulate.
Out of how you've been showing up lately, there's a lot on your plate, no doubt,
and it might feel like you're falling behind, but you're not. You're overcoming stressful situations.
You're fighting for your mental health.
You're doing your best.
The only thing you're falling behind on
is giving yourself the credit you deserve
because at any given moment,
you're doing way better than your inner critic
would like to admit.
You have a plan and you have a process
when opposition adversity challenges, uncertainty pops up.
The problem doesn't look as big.
The adversity doesn't look as big.
The challenges don't look as big.
When you got a plan and a process in place.
Now when you don't got a plan in a process in place,
adversity and opposition shows up, uncertainty shows up.
Problems look real big.
Yeah.
Adversity looks real big.
You forget about the sacrifice.
You forget about the long hours.
You forget about the vision.
You forget about the mission because you don't have a plan or process.
Right?
The process makes you stick to whatever it is that you're doing.
How bad do you want it?
We all know them are reliance.
That's exactly the person we want to become.
The question is, do we believe we can become it?
I believe every journey will run into a debate.
That debate is when pain starts to fill the body.
The temporary pain versus a lifetime of pride.
Champions find a way to make it happen.
No matter how long it takes, they find a way.
Champions find a way to get through their nerves.
So don't be ashamed to say you're nervous,
but find a way to get over it.
Passion into drive has to be followed by an action.
That's the hardest part. People don't want to have that action.
Dreams want to live just like everybody else.
And if you don't bring them to life, somebody else will.
And you're going to be sitting there back thinking,
man, I could have, I should have, I would have.
would have. You had your chance. You got to deliver. You got to have action. You've got to deliver.
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better. Fail better. The world is yours.
You could either do the work today to become your highest version tomorrow or tomorrow you can feel a lifelong of regret.
That's a given. The people who know that they were meant for more and didn't go for more
end up with a lifelong state of regret. And the reason for that is, is because they didn't want to
hurt the people around them, didn't want to hurt family members, but instead they gave in to the
life of average just so they can blend in and not stand out. And years later, they regret not doing
the things that they could have done to become a winner.
We often don't realize we're in control.
We're in control of our own lives and we can make different choices.
And if the things in our life are not bringing us joy and happiness,
if our career that we've devoted all of our lives to isn't bringing us joy,
we can change them.
If we decide our relationship is not the right relationship,
we don't have to suffer in that relationship.
The comfort zone, that's why you will fail.
fail. To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did. You will fail in your
comfort zone. Success is not a comfortable procedure. It is a very uncomfortable thing to a tip.
So you got to get comfortable being uncomfortable if you ever want to be successful.
Ask yourself, what do you really want? What do you really want? I mean, down inside, if you could have
anything you want, what you really want. Let your mind take off your creative being. There's
nothing on the planet that's like you. Give me evidence that you're not qualified to go get that.
Give me evidence that you're not qualified for a great life. You have not. You are also qualified.
No one can tell us what we're capable of except us. And when we believe these truths,
it's over. You're unkillable. You have the ability to take a sledgehammer to anything in your life
and remake it.
Life is clay so long as you realize that you can mold it and shape it and change it to do
what you want to do.
If you knew what you were doing, then you would be stagnating because you'd be doing nothing
new.
And so if you're going to do something new, then that is what would be the catalyst for growth.
So you can't want to grow and also want to know everything you're doing at the same time.
It's like the two beliefs contradict one another.
And so I think that's a lot of, a lot of the discontent that people suffer from
is they want two things that are polar opposites.
They want the really strong character.
They want the easy life.
Like one is the price of the other.
You don't want hardship.
Hardship creates growth.
And so they want both and you can't.
If you've got something that you want, what is stopping you from getting it?
an awakening that you should have,
kind of a self-reflective awakening,
where you can actually understand the fact that
you're not just floating through space in your life.
Oh, man.
You got to realize that you're in complete control, right?
You're behind the wheel every fucking day.
Life is filled with cracks.
Cracks are tragedies, our subbacks,
our challenges.
But it's through the cracks that the light gets it.
So the truth is we have to look at pain and suffering,
not as something we invite and welcome.
But if it does come our way,
you have to see it as the ability for a new birthing,
for like a paradigm shift.
And all paradigm shifts happen through some disruption.
You go higher, you go even more alone.
Because nobody is willing anymore
to invest their energy in going higher,
because it's becoming more difficult.
People don't realize,
When you walk through your journey of life, it's education.
The world is your teacher.
But the thing is, not all of us have the courage to live this life
because we're afraid of failures.
We're afraid of mistakes.
We're afraid of hardships because that's survival mindset.
But what if I were to tell you, to place it all in line,
bet it all over your own existence, to live your truth?
Because through my struggles, I found my truth.
The actions that you take, the choices that you make,
the decisions that you make,
determine who you are.
We're the ones who get to die.
We're the lucky ones.
You only get to die for having lived.
Most people who could ever exist will never even be born.
You won the lottery.
Most people will never even know there was a lottery.
I just don't get the mentality of being head down sad.
Please take a step back and think about how awesome it actually is.
And then recognize that you can attack the world in a totally different way
because you were lucky enough to be born during this era.
Life is not going to get easier.
It's just that your mind and your body become more resistant,
more strong.
Same situation, more relaxed.
Why? Because you finally start to find a solution
that is within your reach, within your hands.
Like a puzzle, life is like pieces of things that go through.
Images that are small fragments if someone sees them individually.
But for you, you realize they're part of a bigger picture.
If people knew all the things that you had survived so far,
things that you've been through,
if they only saw the big picture of your life,
instead of hating on you,
instead of dismissing you and disrespecting you,
they would stand and give a standing ovation
that you could even stand after all you.
been through. But the reason why you survive is because there's something inside of you that is being
transformed so that everyone else can see that every caterpillar can become a butterfly. But you got to come out of
cocoon. Each and every one you got a vision, man, and you know what? A vision to do more, be more.
And as I said earlier, your next level might not be upward, but inward. That vision has been given to you.
But a lot of us, we just credit ourselves so much of the not enoughs.
I'm not enough for this.
I'm not enough for that.
Congratulations.
Maybe you're not supposed to be enough for certain things because certain things aren't enough for you.
Maybe you're not supposed to be enough for that job because there's a job greater for you.
Maybe some doors have to close in your life so you can walk through the better doors that are meant for your life.
Maybe sometimes you've got to get some nose that don't make no sense to walk into your yes.
I've learned this in life.
Rejection is the ultimate protection.
Rejection is just redirection for what God has for your life.
your life. You are a choice away from a new beginning and a commitment away from a new life.
If you're an underdog, man, the beauty of being a someone who has to go through struggle,
the beauty, because you get that. There's no, if there's no struggle, there's no,
there's no struggle, then it's nothing. There's no journey. There's no journey.
Life is, if you're growing and you talented and you gifted, like your talent, your skill can get you
out of certain problems, right? And then you get to a certain point in life, you hit a certain
of a little of adversity in opposition and your advantage becomes your disadvantage.
And if you ain't built right, if you ain't cut right, it's going to annihilate you.
Everything can become possible if you find the way to translate what is in the mind
into action because this transformation makes things come to us.
You've got to come out of hiding. You've got to come out of being silent.
You've got to stop being on mute. You've got to open up your mouth and let out a lot.
loud sound that says, I am still here, I'm still standing in spite of what I've gone through.
You see, you can be in spite or you can live with spite.
When you live with spite and anger and frustration about the things that have been done to you,
you miss out on all the beautiful blessings of the lessons that were taught to you.
If you don't have any adversity, then you will have no story.
Fear limits you.
And every day, just push it a little farther.
A choice away from a new beginning and a commitment away from a new life.
Loser can keep on going if he continues to win.
A champion is the person who gets spit on.
Flipped up, pushed down, said they don't belong here, but yet they rise.
A champion keeps a promise to the one they love the most.
A champion doesn't allow the conditions of circumstances to influence.
They influence the person they wish.
to be by the actions they take every day.
And champion lives
by a powerful code.
This is the beginning of a new day.
You have been given this day to use as you will.
You can waste it or use it for good.
What you do today is important
because you are exchanging a day of your life for.
When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever.
And this place is something that you have left behind.
Let it be something good.
You know, where you're going, right?
you're destined to go, it's not supposed to feel good all the time. It's not supposed to be easy.
You know, so when you're going through seasons of discomfort, seasons of feeling overwhelmed,
feeling pulled in a lot of different directions, understand that it's a part of you getting
to the place that you want to be, you getting to the best version of yourself. It's all playing a
role. If you win enough days, you win the week. If you win enough weeks, you win the month.
If you win enough months, you win the year. And if you win enough years,
you win life.
And it's that simple.
All right.
There's no magic outside of that.
There's a saying,
there's a quote that I really believe in
that when the pain of the current reality
becomes greater than the fear of change,
that's when we change.
So like when you become,
when the pain becomes so intense
that it's greater than the fear
that you have of the unknown,
then you'll go into the unknown.
Sometimes you need to feel the pain
and sting of the feet
to activate the real past.
passion and purpose, you would rather find purpose than a job or career.
Purpose disciplines. Purpose is an essential element of you.
Challenges come so we can grow and be prepared for things that we're not equipped to handle in the moment.
When we face our challenges with faith, prepared to learn, willing to make changes, and if necessary to let go, we're demanding that I'm
power be turned on.
If you're scared, good.
Do it scared.
When anyone is pursuing something new and it terrifies you, that just lets you know that
it's valuable and potentially world changing.
If it doesn't scare you, it's not big enough.
If people don't doubt you, it's not big enough.
If you don't contemplate quitting, your vision is not big enough.
Everyone goes through these things, but the ones that push through are the one.
who succeed.
You know, there's something powerful that once you just sort of embrace the fact that in order
to achieve something big, you've got to get rid of these distractions, you're probably
going to have to have some suffering to get there or some sacrifice to get there.
Suffering and sacrifice and hard work is an indication of progress towards our dreams.
The lack of sacrifice, the lack of suffering in our lives, it's removal, its non-existence
also equates to a non-existence of a great life, a non-existence.
existence of a dream happening. When we're suffering and sacrificing, we wonder whether it's worth it.
We wonder whether we're supposed to. We wonder whether sacrifice or setbacks or suffering is a sign.
It's not our real dream. And so just remember this. You're supposed to suffer and sacrifice.
Hear me. It's not what you're capable of. It's what you're willing to do.
It's not what you capable of is what you willing to do. I know plenty of people that are capable of
I know fewer people that are willing.
If I want to be good, I got to wake up in the morning and I got to do the extra work.
And I got to show up when other guys aren't.
And I've got to learn. I've got to continue to be open to learning.
But I had to take it to a new level that the other guys wouldn't.
Whatever they asked me to do, that's what I'm going to do.
To the best of my abilities.
I'm going to go out there and compete as hard as I can.
And I'm going to treat practice like a game.
I'm going to work hard in the weight room.
I'm going to work hard in the film room.
I'm going to work hard to be a good student.
We're all going to have to face the consequences.
of our decisions at some point in our life.
You can scroll social media and play video games and pretend that reality doesn't exist.
But the reality is a moment is coming where you have to face your decisions.
Were you the person that you wanted to be?
Did you live the life that you wanted to live?
With all the distractions in the world, it's real easy to pretend that moment isn't coming.
But the truth is, it's coming and you don't know when.
And that is why you have to live your life in such a way that if that moment arrived tomorrow,
you would be happy with how you lived your life today.
will not understand your obsession, your drive, and your determination. Success is a lonely journey.
That's just a reality. And most people are not going to understand why you're so driven,
while you're so obsessed. And if you try and make them understand, you're going to end up frustrated.
The best advice I can tell you is, go on the journey by yourself. Your attitude is your greatest
characteristic. You don't control innate intelligence, your size, or your God-given towns.
What you do control is your attitude.
We can all have a positive attitude.
It's a choice we make every day.
It gives us the courage to never fear failure.
I think the definition of greatness is to inspire the people next to you.
I think that's what greatness is or should be.
It's not something that lives and dies with one person.
It's how can you inspire a person to then in turn inspire another person
that then inspires another person?
And that's how you create something that I think lasts forever.
I love the quote that says, I don't fear success.
I fear succeeding as something that doesn't matter.
People want to find their passion, but you don't find it, you create it.
And you create it by getting good at something.
And to get good at stuff, you start by doing something you suck at.
Then you get good.
Then you like it.
Then people ask how you found your passion.
Answer, by starting when you sucked and not giving up.
Everything that you want is on the other side of heart.
I just think about stacking days.
Just keep stacking days.
Just keep stacking days.
As long as you keep stacking days, I promise you, I promise you,
you will see the change.
It's possible for you, you, the one who stays up late,
putting in extra hours of studying just to pass the class.
You, the one who's working two jobs to make ends meet,
one who's putting extra hours, extra reps in the gym because they believe that their strength
is a gift worth sharing with others.
Imagine producing the greatest work you've ever produced because it came from your heart.
That's the calling.
And I know you know it's deep within you.
I know you hear it, but I don't know if you'll answer.
That part is entirely up to you.
I'm going to be real with you.
Your family's not going to understand it.
The people in your hometown aren't going to support you.
And no one's going to believe at you until you have something to show for it.
That's just how it is.
So when you start, do it for yourself.
Be fucking great.
Put the time in to learn the skills.
Put the skills into practice.
And make a commitment to becoming so good that all your peers say,
that's the fucker, that's the best.
And if you can do that,
No matter where you are, no matter if you're cooking French fries, no matter if you're managing the restaurant, no matter if you own a thousand restaurants, no matter if you created the fucking brand, you cannot be stopped.
All winners have got depressed. All winners have been heartbroken. All winners have been disappointed. But they kept moving forward. That's the only reason they're winners. Nobody has just winning all the time. Nobody does.
Do you feel defeated that you can never achieve what you want?
It's so hard to achieve.
Whatever I put my mind to, I try hard, but it doesn't work.
Do you ever have those conversations?
Well, you're telling yourself that it's over.
You're telling these stories to yourself that you can achieve this.
Inside of your mind, you haven't decided what you really want.
confused. So it's time for you to find clarity or what do you really want? Do you want this to work?
Then all your statements, all your chatters should be about making it happen. I think the greatest fear
you face is yourself because we all have dreams and it's very scary sometimes to accept the dream
that you have and it's scarier still to say okay I want that. It's scary because you're afraid that
if you put your heart and soul into it and you fail, then how are you going to feel about
yourself? So being fearless means putting yourself out there and going for it. No matter what,
go for it. Not for anybody else, but for yourself. That's what it takes. To do anything successfully
in life, you've got to want it as bad as you want to breathe. And if you want it that bad,
If you're willing to give it that much, you get a big piece of what you want.
And dreams do come true.
Anything you want can happen and become a reality.
I believe that sincerely, and I'll die on that thought.
You don't start things and not finish.
You don't quit.
There's nothing that comes out of quitting besides knowing that you didn't finish.
Remember this.
You can't just quit.
We finish everything.
You started finishing.
If you give up,
the guarantee is it will never happen.
Nobody believes in you.
You've lost again and again and again.
The lights are cut off.
Say to yourself, it's not over until I win.
What the fuck is your life?
Are you happy with it?
See, the thing about life, we're going to die, right?
Eventually we're going to die.
But our legacy can live on.
The impact can be non-perishable forever.
But it's got to be built right.
and we got to take advantage of the time we have right now.
What have you done with your life
to make it something else besides the normality of everybody else?
The intake and the outtake of what you call life
is nothing more than time.
And unless done something with it's forgotten about.
There's no footprint of your existence left
for anyone else to follow.
What happens is you have all these voices
and this can be hard,
but for some reason, you put so much practice into you.
that you can ignore every one of them that are telling you,
you're not going to make it, and still be able to make it.
Because you have put the practice in that you know this is the process.
It's such a daunting task that all the voices are saying, no.
But you still have the conviction that I know I can do this.
They don't realize that they still hold the pen.
There's thousands of empty pages still.
that book, that they can rewrite that story. But we have to let go of the pages that others have
written in our book and realize we got this pen, and we can start writing how the story looks
from this day forward.
