You have to find a dream that's so big that it overwhelms all of your fears and causes
you to never give up.
Everybody on the way to where you're trying to get to, you have a decision that one day
you can go forward and you turn back. The problem is that average person turns back from a dream.
You have the vision. You believe in the vision. You are sure positive that if
other people could see your vision they would be amazed. Your goals and dreams have to be bigger than your
problems. If you're going through hell keep going. I mean why would you stop
there? You know I was in hell so why stop now? You're going through hell you
should keep going. Where you get to the next level of your life is keep going.
Keep going, keep running. Even when you don't even know, even Where you get to the next level of your life is keep going.
Keep going, keep running.
Even when you don't even know,
even if you get turned into chaos,
you cannot be great if you cannot operate in chaos.
You have to want something so big
that it wakes you up in the middle of the night.
You have to want something so big
that you think about it all the time.
That it drives you to wake up when you don't want to.
It keeps you up at night when you've long been sleepy.
It makes you show up, do things you wouldn't normally do.
It requires extra.
How many times in your life have you gone through something you thought you wasn't gonna make it? What you have to do
is to be steady
in the storm.
If you're steady you are lasting.
If you're steady you are living.
If you're not steady it's only because you don't have the faith to believe that there's something on the other side of it
So easy to put things off so easy to say you're gonna do it tomorrow
Well, I want you to reprogram your brain and tell yourself that tomorrow is not a viable option.
Tomorrow doesn't work.
You do it today, you get it done today.
That's what you do.
Always go to something bigger than yourself.
My problem is so many times,
you've thrown big ideas at small people.
You know, having faith, you know, that you're doing what you're supposed to be doing is one thing,
but you gotta believe that this is your destiny and this is what you're supposed to be doing in life, you know, if you really want it.
And I think as a human sometimes you feel like you always gotta wait for the right time,
what makes sense to you to actually start executing, to actually start stop making excuses,
to doing the things that you always really wanted to do.
You know, and I'm guilty of that.
I'm starting to find myself now being like,
nah, there is no right time to do anything.
You just gotta start doing.
Until you have had the taste of finishing,
you will not respect yourself until you follow through until something is done tears and struggles and pain and you go
through it anyway and you show up and you continue to fight on no matter the circumstances after a while
something begins to wither inside of you it's an urge every president has felt it
every king has felt it every lion has felt it every winner has felt it. Every winner has felt it. Every soldier has felt it.
Every victorious person has felt it. The urge to quit.
Don't you give up on your dream.
It was very difficult to pick myself up each day believing that I could do it.
There were times that I doubted myself.
There are many people who have the limitations in their minds,
who have lost that fire in their eyes,
who because of the experiences of life have said, no, I can't do that.
A lot of people never try anything differently
because when they thought about doing something
at some critical point in their lives,
somebody they respected and honored,
someone they trusted said, you can't do that.
And they accepted that.
Most people aren't obsessed with their goals
because they don't believe they're worthy of them.
It's easy to dream about what you want.
We're all looking for this golden purpose.
Is it this, is it that, is it making money?
Because the purpose is you.
Every f**king day I wake up, I don't want to do some f**king s**t.
You want to walk around all day knowing that you could but you didn't?
What I do tell people is to get after it.
I tell people to do the things that they know they're supposed to do.
There's things that you know you're supposed to do as a human being. Things that you know are going to improve your life. Do those things.
There's things that you know are going to make you a worse person and make your life
worse. Don't do those things. You have to start living your life in expectation. You
have got to start expecting great things to happen for you in order for it to happen if you live your life in expectations
That's what happens to you if you live your life in despair
That's what happens to you
How did this have to happen to me?
It was very hard
Here's what I want to say to you
For those of you that have experienced some hardships,
don't give up on your dream.
50% of women is showing up for the fight.
The fight is half over when you show up.
You'll never win a fight you don't show up for.
I'm showing up for this.
Here I am ready for duty.
I am through hiding in the shadows for fear that I might fail
I'm gonna face this head on and let the chips fall where they may
Telling yourself every day here I go again
And I got what it takes
This is my day and nothing out here is going to stop me
You have to eat the dream you have to sleep the dream you have to eat the dream, you have to sleep the dream, you have to dream the dream, you
have to see it when nobody else sees it, you have to believe it when you cannot see it.
There's more in you right now that's represented in your bank account, there's more in you
right now that's being reflected by your life right now.
Your life is not a true reflection of your potential, you have greatness within you. You have the ability to do more than you can ever
begin to imagine. There is no shame in wanting something. This whole world is
based on wanting something. You've got to discover your gift and when you discover it
you got to soak it. You got to ring it out man. You got to diversify it. Most of us
only have one talent but do
you know that that's all you need nobody believes in you you've lost again and
again and again the lights are cut off but you're still looking at your dream
reviewing it every day and say to yourself it's not over until I win if
you just understood the principle of success, you could be successful.
It don't matter what.
Anybody can be successful.
You just gotta adhere to a few things.
And what you gotta adhere to is not hard.
The hard part is believing that it's applicable to you.
But everybody is designed to be successful.
You just have to get out your way sometimes.
Suppose this day is all that is left.
Suppose wherever you come from, you won't have time to return here
and say, Bye-bye. How will you use your time?
If you have this attitude, that kind of earnestness,
I think a lot of things will change, and so much for better.
Nothing to carry over. No account for tomorrow, everything today.

You have made no progress.
None.
You never moved.
You might even be further from your goal than you were.
Why?
Why did you let that happen? You think to yourself, maybe I can't do it.
And so you give up.
You let it fade.
And you settle.
You settle for mediocrity, you settle for average, you settle for...
Oh well.
But no.
No.
Don't do that.
Man, life's short.
Go harder than you did last year.
Whatever you thought you did, it wasn't enough.
Go harder and find a way to enjoy it.
That's when you mastered the game.
Every problem that we have can be looked at two ways. We can look at it as a difficulty
to get rid of, or we can look at it as a message from our true selves. Any problem comes along
not in order to make our lives miserable, but actually in order to make our life less miserable and the suffering
that it imposes is an attempt to wake us up.
Nobody in life is flawless, nobody is perfect. It's impossible. You can try to be
as perfect as you want but ultimately you're gonna come across mistakes, you're
gonna come across flaws and I think the real perfection is in perfecting
your imperfection.
The knowledge that you have emerged wiser and stronger from setbacks means that you
are ever after secure in your ability to survive. You will never truly know yourself or the
strength of your relationships until both have been tested by adversity. Such knowledge is a true gift,
for all that it is painfully one,
and it has been worth more than any qualification I ever earned.
It's all on...
you.
Do something about it every day, every day.
Do something that moves you toward that goal, that keeps the goal alive and in sight and
in focus.
However small or insignificant that step might seem, take it.
Do it.
Do that little piece.
Make it happen.
Because that goal is going to achieve itself.
Don't half-ass it.
Don't half-ass it.
I mean think about it, if you're gonna do something, if you've chosen to do something, whatever, it's easy
hard.
If you give it your all and you don't half-ass it, win, lose, draw, get what you want, don't
get what you want, whatever the outcome is, if you don't half-ass it, at least you're
not going to have to wonder, oh, would the outcome have been different?
What if I did give it my all?
And boy, wondering that is what keeps us out at night.
I think that the number one thing is you have to have a very clear vision, a very clear
goal of where you want to go.
Because only then you will get there.
You can have the best airplane or the best ship in the world, but if the captain doesn't
know where to go, he would just drift around if the pilot does not know where
to go he would just drift around with his plane so it's I think the key thing
is that we know where we are going don't listen to the naysayers because there's
always people out there they will tell you that he would not be able to do that
forget it it's a stupid dream that you have for a crazy vision and those don't
listen to the nice sayers.
If you find your passion, you're going to have this tremendous energy,
a sustainable energy.
But momentum requires you always do the next thing,
to keep the momentum going.
And the reason you get yourself in a passionate place
is so that you change your life.
And the only thing that changes your life is making a decision. So while you're in this passionate state, that's where you
make decisions. A decision is the first step. Your mind is thinking about it. All these
dungeons that we've created, all these trap doors. Most of the time we quit is because we don't have
any mental tools to get us through the other side.
So my whole thing for people is you have to examine
why are you doing it in the first place.
Allow yourself to dream.
Allow yourself to imagine and fantasize about all
your career goals and the kind of life
you would really like to
live. You have to have a dream if you want to make a dream come true. It's true for
you and for everyone else as well. So imagine that you have no limitations on
what you can be or have or do in life. You have no limit.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Old age should burn and rave at close of day.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end no dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning,
They do not go gentle into that good night.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
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.
This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, jobs and maybe your mind. Go all the way.
Despite rejection and the worst odds, and it will be better than anything else you can imagine.
Invent yourself and then reinvent yourself. Don't swim in the same slough.
Invent yourself and then reinvent yourself. Be self-taught and reinvent your life because you must.
It is your life and its history and the present belong only to you.
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you.
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, if you
can dream and not make dreams your master, if you can think and not make
thoughts your aim, if you can meet with triumph and disaster and treat those two
imposters just the same, if you could force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your
turn long after they are done and so hold on when there is nothing in you
except the will which says to them hold on. If you can talk with crowds and keep
your virtue or walk with Kings nor lose the common touch.
If you can fill the unforgiving minute with 40 seconds worth of distance run, yours is
the earth and everything that's in it.
Some stuff takes time.
Greatness takes time. It takes time. It takes time to build your brand. It takes time to build your life. It takes time to build your career. You gotta be prepared to give a thousand no's to give one yes.
others are quitting because of the rejections, when others are stopping because they just become so discouraged and they have creditors breathing down their neck and they have family
members and friends telling them they're full.
What is it that will allow you to have the mental resiliency to keep on keeping on, to
keep your commitment to your commitment the will to do it you
want to surround yourself with people that are hungry people that are hungry
are willing to do the things today others won't do it in order to have the
things tomorrow others won't have people that are hungry do what they know, not what they feel.
You already know who you are.
And that piece, that piece that we're after, lies somewhere beyond personality.
So many of us choose our path out of fear
disguised as practicality. What we really want seems impossibly out of reach and ridiculous
to expect, so we never dare to ask the universe for it. I'm saying, I'm the proof that you
can ask the universe for it. Don't let anything stand in the way of the light that shines through this form.
Risk being seen in all of your glory.
You already have something special.
What you're afraid of doing is working hard
at it. You're afraid and once you step up and you stare at yourself in the mirror
and know who the hell you are and you fail but you fail forward and you learn
you put yourself in a better position to succeed and then once you get a you know
one level then you go to the next one one see a lot of people they stay at that one level because it's comfortable
I'm fragile. I
Feel pain I hurt I open my eyes
I crave victory. I do not give up. I
feel no fear I
fear no man. I create. I conquer. I hold power. Make a choice. Just decide what it's going to be, who you're going to be, how you're going to do it.
Just decide. And then from that point, the universe is going to get out your way. We can't have
another bad year you've got to get to the point where enough is enough. This is
kind of hard to understand but sometimes you can try so hard at something
sometimes you can be so so prepared and still fail. And every time you fail it's painful, causes sadness.
So no matter how great the setback, how severe the failure, you never give up.
You never give up. You pick yourself up brush yourself off you push forward you move on
Everybody here everybody no option. I won't be stopped. I can't be stopped
On the other side of temporary pain you meet your other self
It's much easier to come up with excuses why you can't do it. If you
do what is easy your life will be hard. If you do what is easy complain about
your situation your circumstances. You surrender and give up on your dreams
become depressed and bitter and angry
Anybody can do that if you do what is easy your life will be hard
You've got to change your strategies and changing your strategy means reinventing your life
Recreating you and you have the power to do that
You can decide that you're gonna stand up to life
You can decide that I'm gonna live each day as if it were my last.
I'm willing for people laughing at me. I'm willing to gut this out.
I'm willing to make this happen.
It's my time. It's possible.
It's necessary. It's hard. It's worth it.
Success, guys, is a very, very lonely road, man.
Along that road, you're not going to see too many friends.
You'll see your shadow once more.
I wish I could tell you, you're tired, go take a break.
I wish I could tell you, you're tired, rest for a year.
I wish I could tell you that it's going to get easier.
I wish I could tell you it's going to get easier. I wish I could tell you that if you just's gonna get easier. I wish I could tell you it's gonna get easier.
I wish I could tell you that if you just keep going,
it's gonna get lighter.
Pain always leaves a gift.
Always.
It is not going to change for you.
So all pain, no matter what it is, it is temporary.
And if you can survive it, on the other side of it,
you will meet personality traits emotions thoughts people
Circumstances versions of you that you didn't know existed before
You might be so close
Wouldn't it be a shame for you to quit when you're this close?
Wouldn't it be a shame for you to walk away when you've come this far?
for you to walk away when you come this far? Wouldn't it be horrible for you to bail out
when you're just this close to victory?
You want it!
And you're gonna go all out to have it. The world is tough.
We are training kids and people to be soft in a world that continuously gets harder.
You have to build a person that can withstand the pressures
of whatever they're gonna be dealing with in life.
And we don't do that.
How many times in your life have you gone through something
you thought you wasn't gonna make it?
What you have to do is to be steady in the storm.
If you're steady you are outlasted. If you're steady you are outlived.
If you're not steady it's only because you don't have the faith to believe that there's something
on the other side of it. You better have a part about you that's tough, a part about you that can
break down situations and get better. The devastation, the trauma is going to come
and you can't allow that to become a Jersey barrier.
It can't be a Jersey barrier, it has to be something that you can maneuver through very quickly
and move forward, that takes a lot of toughness.
You got to shut off technology.
Go to that dark place, I call it the dark room, where you're alone.
No cell phones, no music, no TVs, no
computers. You by yourself. Very few people want to be alone anymore. They want to be
around noise and people and they have to... you can't think. Shut life off a little bit.
Go to a dark place in your mind and figure out what the f*** you want to be. You don't
know what you want to be because you haven't spent time, real time with yourself. Spend time with yourself and once you find
that passion and that purpose, your goals, your purpose, everything will just start
lining up. I'm wondering if there are things echoing in your head right now
that are stopping you from living your best life because you will not silence him by speaking back.
You shall have whatever you say.
Discipline is your best friend.
It will take care of you like nothing else can.
It will put you on that path.
The path to strength and health and intelligence and happiness.
I don't care how good you are in anything, you don't have discipline, you ain't nobody.
You're nothing without discipline.
Because you give up on the slightest struggle without discipline.
Discipline is doing what you hate to do, but do it like you love it.
What if the truth is that changing your life is one away?
One decision, one meeting, one conversation, one extra phone call, one extra rep in the gym.
You start stacking up those one mores. That's the separator.
In life, we don't get our goals, we get our standards.
Don't be afraid to reinvent yourself and don't be afraid to be different, man.
You ain't got to fit in the crowd. I tell my sons all the time,
why are you following everybody when you were clearly meant to lead?
People that don't have their own visions, they become vision killers.
They want nothing more than to talk you out of your own visions.
They don't have dreams for themselves. They don't have any hopes.
They're hopeless. They're uninspired, unmotivated.
They have no dreams. They have nothing that they're uninspired, unmotivated. They have no dreams.
They have nothing that they're ambitious about.
I don't know what your future is,
but if you are willing to take the harder way,
the more complicated one, the one with more failures at first than successes,
the one that has ultimately proven to have more meaning, more victory, more glory,
then you will not regret it. Whatever you choose for a career path, remember the
struggles along the way are only meant to shape you for your purpose.
I hate Plan B. Every thought that you put into Plan B, you're taking away now that thought and that energy from plan A.
I've never ever had a plan B.
Lazy people do a little work and think they should be winning, but winners work as hard as possible and still worry if they're being lazy.
The reason most people fail is because they give up what they want most for what they want now.
But like I always say, life is 10% what happens to you, it's 90% what you do about it.
The first step is getting completely and brutally honest enough to say, I am tired of myself.
When you say I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired, that's the facilitator of change.
That's when you're ready to say these words,
no more excuses.
I say chase your dreams, man. Do that thing, thing man that keeps you up at night. Makes you
trip. You can't quit thinking about it. You wake up in the middle of the night you got
a new idea. That's what you got to chase. Cause anything else is gonna disappoint you.
You gonna forever be sad man. If you don't chase that dream, you're going to forever be miserable man.
If you really want to be transformed, you have to live an intentional life.
Most people don't lead their life, they accept their life.
And when you accept your life, you are living on things that are not worthy of your time and effort and energy.
To go uphill, you have to be intentional.
Nobody ever went uphill by accident.
You've never read a book on accidental achievements.
You have to be intentional with what you do and who you are.
I have never met anybody who became incredibly successful
in any area of their life until they had suffered
and sweated and sacrificed
and kept their focus and fought through tears and trials and tests and if you have a dream
and you commit to it, it will come to pass.
Do things that you have to push mentally through and if you do those things and you continue
to do those things, you'll get mentally stronger. The scary thing is when you give up, when you don't push,
when you stay in bed, when you eat the donut, you're getting mentally weak. So develop the
muscle, develop that brain power to push through when things kind of suck. When they suck, go do
them anyways. If you want to be the best of the best,
if you want to survive no matter what happens,
if you want to thrive no matter what happens,
you can't second guess yourself.
There's always a reason.
If your business is not thriving, there's a reason.
If your relationship is not thriving, there's a reason.
And you know what the crazy thing is?
Everybody in this room knows exactly what that reason is.
If you want to win, you got to do it.
Do it alone. Do it broke. Do it tired. Everyone in this room knows exactly what that reason is. If you want to win, you gotta do it.
Do it alone.
Do it broke.
Do it tired.
Do it scared.
No matter what.
Just do it.
50% of winning is showing up for the fight.
The fight is half over when you show up.
You'll never win a fight you don't show up for.
I'm showing up for this.
Here I am, ready for duty.
I am through hiding in the shadows
for fear that I might fail.
I'ma face this head on
and let the chips fall where they may.
If you don't know who you are,
you will accept less than you deserve.
You will negotiate with your you deserve You will negotiate
With your piece you just do it because it's convenient when you don't know who you are
No haters can disturb you. I actually appreciate my haters. I hate us keep me grinding
I tell them all the time if you want to pay attention to success watch me
You've got to understand. It's timing in baseball
You've got to understand it's timing in baseball. It's not just skill.
It is the timing that causes the batter to be effective at swinging the bat.
You can have the right swing, but if you swing at the wrong time,
you won't have the impact that you should have had.
Some of you are trying to do the right swing, but you're swinging at the wrong time.
Your dreams are phenomenal.
The life that you have for yourself is phenomenal.
In your dreams, your bank account is phenomenal.
The things that you do, the way that you live, what you have is phenomenal.
