A lot of people out there dreaming. They don't put the work behind the dream. That dream has become their fucking master. Ran by a graveyard, and I looked out there, and I looked out there, I'm like, man, I wonder how many you motherfuckers in there. Fucking just are so upset with how you live your life. Regret how you lived it.

And I'm running a 300-pound man thinking, man, don't fucking die like this, bro. Life isn't fair. It shouldn't be. be fair. It's a trial grounds, a testing grounds built to make us harder to test us, to drive us. Mentality is the only thing that gets us through life. We are all underdogs in life. Even the baddest person in the world is to think that way. So you say, always have, I've never arrived mentality. No matter where you come from the sewer or wherever you think you're from, nothing

should be able to hurt you. If you believe that, it starts to become true. You wake up in the morning and you don't want to do something. You don't care enough about yourself. That's what you need to really research is, man, why am I not doing this for myself? Because that is, that is the number one purpose in life to better oneself. So that's the only purpose I need. There's always someone out there's working harder than you. I'm haunted by that motherfuck. Knowing that that someone out there is willing to forego, personal desires and comforts, forgo to sleep, for whatever it takes to be better, to be the best. In life a lot of times, Well, I always have that person out there.

There may not be a name or a faith to him, but he exists. Who are you on those days you don't want to do things? It's easy to conquer when it's good weather. You got good sleep and you feel great. Those are easy days to conquer. But who are you on those fucking day when all hells broke loose? You're sore. You're depressed.

You're miserable. Who are you on those days? Life with the most brutal endurance sport of all time. And that's what we have to love about. Life continues to attack us. There are no fucking timeouts. You out there who are trying to get better, who are looking for more, who on January 1, don't give a...

It's just a Sunday to you. It's you all out there who are waking up tired of being a... We're waking up tired of being a frame. Who are waking up tired of being a victim. Those you out there who aren't half-stepping, I appreciate you all. Stay hard. The one mentality that you must have in life is that regardless of what's in front of you,

you still must grind. There'll be professional athletes, but still I grind. I feel that most things I do, but still I gride. I don't want to do half the shit I do, but still I grind. And that one day you see me on a dark alley run at 1 o'clock in the morning, no one thing. I was grinding. The problem that most of us have is we think that we're all alone.

We think they were the only ones going through all this stuff. Your vision becomes very narrowed. And I was able to look down at the world. And we are, all of us are jacked up. Some of us hide it better than others, but we're all jacked up. And once you realize that, you know, you got to come out of your shell. You got to accept who you are. You got to accept the demons that life gave you.

You got to be able to look them in the mirror, look them in the eyes. Okay, I'm going to start fixing these things. If you think that you're by yourself, the reality of your life becomes very, very horrible. And you're not. We are all jacked up. And once you realize that, man, you don't even look at the crowd anymore. You look at your own race. You do your own race.

You do your own thing. And you finally find out who you're supposed to be in this life. So many people that have the ability and just refuse to get off that couch. Refuse to study a few more hours. I refuse to go deeper, to go further. It's so easy to be great nowadays, my friend, because most people are weak. Biggest advice is shut off your phones,

shut off all technology, find a dark, quiet place for you to think. You have to think first. And then when you think, you have to think, okay, what's my purpose in life? From your purpose, now you found, okay, from my purpose, what are my goals now? Can you find your goals?

Now you've got to sit down and plan. Plan. How am I going to accomplish these goals? Then from there, the hardest part is you have to put the action in. And that's where everybody fails. You're missing the story, man. Am I happy?

What do you think? Don't misunderstand the passion in which I speak for not being intensely happy. Happiest person in the world. But I'm not done. So I'm not going to speak to you like, oh man, everything is great. No, I have a lot more shit to do. A lot more shit to do.

Become a better person. How you gain me? mental toughness, how you become the person you want to be, is constantly facing the things that you don't want to face. If you constantly run away from things that you don't want to face, how is their growth? I'm always sharpening my sword. And how I sharpen my sword is having a mentality of my refrigerator is never full. I've never arrived.

And every time I get close to the top of the mountain, I fall back down on purpose. I believe that the true growth is at scratch. There has to be friction in your life for you to be able to be. move forward. Life is short. Life is precious. Spend that time with the people you love, the people you want to get that time too. Real friends, real family. Everybody else, then they're sucking up the air and you breathe. A lot of you are trying to find inspiration and motivation with a depressed mindset. Put challenges in fun of yourself. When you put a challenge in fun of yourself and you attack it, That's when you find inspiration.

Stay hard. We're all fucked up. Stop judging yourself against other f*** up people who have hidden it better than you. It's all they've done. They've mastered it better than you have. And now they're flipping it back on you and saying you're fucked up. Life is one big head game. And once you learn to play the motherfuckin' fucking head game,

no longer game anymore at all. You just not living your life.
