Imagine you're 90 years old, sitting in your rocking chair, looking back at your life.
Do you think you'll have any regrets?
If you continue living the way that you're living right now, will you truly be
fulfilled when it's all over? If the answer is no, then ask yourself why? Why would anyone reject
the calling to become what they believe they have the potential to be? Because we limit ourselves in
an effort to avoid fear, failure, discomfort, or any sort
of pain we think we'll experience. So we build this prevention machine designed to protect us
from having to struggle. Destroy this machine. Welcome to Daily Motivation, where you get
motivated and inspired. Destroy the part of yourself that's stopping you from living the incredible life you're capable of creating.
Feel the pain that is holding you back.
Feel it making you stronger.
And when that voice in your head says
your pursuit is far-fetched,
too difficult, too risky, impossible,
tell it that it's okay if you think it can't be done.
Just don't distract me while I do it.
Don't allow the prevention machine to trick you into believing that if you keep it running, then it will be easy.
It's not easy to settle for less when you know you're capable of more.
To be bored out of your mind, sitting at a desk waiting for the weekend to come.
It's not easy to retreat.
To ignore the path you know you need to take.
Never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about.
We all go through that.
Not doing the thing we know we need to do.
And instead taking the safer path that has a reward visible at the end.
But that's not your path.
Yours is a crazy looking trail on the edge of a cliff with giant gaps and no end in sight.
Go there.
Go where you have less comfort and security, but more passion and possibility.
And the more vulnerable you feel, the weaker the machine becomes until it breaks down completely.
There's a certain freedom in that.
The kind that comes from knowing that whatever force tries to stop you
has no chance.
Knowing that you're giving life
everything you have.
Knowing that you're becoming
all that you could be.
You'll wake up excited every day with
one mission. Break walls and build bridges towards the most enlightening pursuit you can dream of.
Aren't you tired of wondering what you're truly capable of? Find out. And when you're 90 years
old, sitting in your rocking rocking chair looking back at your life
you'll be proud of the person you've become
when you settle you ruin the movie yeah you heard me your life is a movie and you are the author
your life is a movie and you are the director life is a movie and you are the director. Life is a movie.
And you need to edit some scenes out.
The pen is in your hand
my friend and you're writing your very
own personal movie
and I believe that good God
wins in the end. I believe
that good woman wins in the end.
I believe that you will
win in the end as long as you don't settle.
When you settle, you ruin the finale.
When you settle, you ruin the final scene.
We are all tuned into your movie.
We got our popcorn ready.
Waiting for your grand finale.
How is your movie going to end?
As long as there is breath in your body,
there is a chance.
Sometimes discouragement happens.
Sometimes fatigue happens.
One thing I know about life,
when you get tired,
you got to wait for that second wind.
When that second wind kicks in, whoa, you might be tired right now, but that second wind is kicking
in. I came here right now today to be your second wind and don't you ever settle. Why? Because I
don't want you to have regrets. You got to rise above how you feel.
It's going to be up to you to take authority over your mind and your emotions.
And a lot of times we get frustrated because things seem to be moving too slowly.
And when that happens, we start to question whether or not what we really want will ever happen for us.
Well, it will happen if you refuse to allow fear and impatience to deprive you of what you deserve.
It will happen if you don't allow moments of frustration to guide your decisions.
Think about all the people you know in life that said,
man, I wish I didn't quit on school.
I hate I dropped out.
I wish I didn't get divorced.
I hate I gave up.
I wish I didn't quit the football team because I could have been in the NFL.
I wish I didn't quit.
I wish I acted better. I wish I didn't get kicked out of school.
I wish I didn't give up on my kid.
I wish, I wish, I wish that you'd get kicked out of school. I wish I didn't give up on my kid. I wish, I wish, I wish that is regret.
Never settle.
There's still time.
Never settle.
There's still time.
What are you working on right now?
Because sometimes in life, all you've got is that one thing.
God gave you one thing to do.
That's all you've got is that one thing.
I know life will knock you down.
I know life can be tough. But you are on to do. That's all you got is that one thing. I know life will suck you down. I know life can be tough
but you are on a journey.
When you settle
you will always have regret
on what
could have been.
What should have been.
I'm going to say these
two powerful words one more time.
And I want you to hear me.
And get them in your spirit.
Never.
Settle. If you hang around sharks long enough, it will transform your mindset.
And I promise you, you will be like a shark.
You will think like a shark.
And you can't go backwards.
And if you stop swimming, you will die.
And don't you ever forget that the rest of your life.
Don't you ever forget that the rest of your life don't you ever stop moving don't you ever go backwards
I know what it feels like to sit on a bench
I know what it feels like to get knocked down
I know what it feels like to have a hope and a dream.
And nobody believes in it.
I wish I didn't quit.
I wish I acted better.
I wish I didn't get kicked out of school.
I wish I didn't give up on my kid.
I wish, I wish, I wish.
That is regret.
There's still time.
What are you working on right now?
Because sometimes in life, all you got is that one thing.
God gave you one thing to do.
That's all you got is that one thing.
I know life will knock you down.
I know life can be tough, but you are on a journey.
You know, my dad would say, go get it, son.
Go get it.
Be sweet, baby.
Be sweet.
Go get it.
Go get it. Be sweet, baby. Go get it. Go get it. Be sweet, baby. Be sweet. Go get it.
Go get it.
Be sweet, baby.
Go get it.
Go get it.
Be sweet.
Be sweet, baby.
Go get it.
Go get it.
Be sweet.
Be sweet, baby.
Every time I left the house, my mom would say, be sweet, baby.
Be sweet.
My dad would say, go get it, son.
Go get it.
Go get it, son.
Go get it.
Be sweet.
Go get it.
Be sweet.
Go get it.
Be sweet.
Go get it.
Be sweet.
You got to be ready to fight and bounce back.
Punch and counterpunch, jab and jab back.
Let me tell you something, life is a series of fights.
The worst thing you can do is run away from your fights.
In order for you to rise up, you better take your game to the next level.
Your mindset needs to go to the next level.
Your information needs to go to the next level.
Your relationships need to go to the next level.
To be a shark is about how you move,
how you operate, how you navigate. You have to be disciplined every single day and train yourself to follow through on all your fundamentals. And that's how you're going to be successful.
You have to do it when you don't feel like it. You have to do it when you feel discouraged.
You have to do it when you don't feel healthy. You have to do it when you're under the weather. Every single day, you have to train yourself to focus and commit
to your business and follow through. Fighting for your future. Fighting for your dreams.
Fighting for success. When you come over depression, you raise your arms like a champ.
When you overcome bankruptcy, raise your arms in victory. don't you ever lose hope don't you ever give up your mind sex sharks are
powerful creatures you gotta think different you gotta be different if you want to be at the top of your food chain.
So how will you show up on game day?
Instead of feeling down about your situation, try to figure out what you can do to create positive momentum for yourself.
Even at your lowest point, even at your lowest moment, there is something that you can do to create a small win. Now your small win might not be the same as my small win. Your small
win might simply be getting out of the bed. Your small win might be going to the gym. Your small
win might be making one more phone call
or getting up an hour earlier to put in some extra work.
You have to believe that you control your destiny.
Don't put that responsibility on anyone else but you.
Something is happening.
Something is taking place.
The seeds that you've sown they are still
working for you the time and energy you've sacrificed they are not in vain when you plant
a seed which is really your goal you have to nurture it you have to protect it you can't do
one set of punches and expect to have a six pack. You've got to show up every day.
You've got to show up day after day.
You've got to show up when you're motivated.
You've got to show up when you're feeling unmotivated.
You've got to show up when everyone is behind you.
And you've got to show up when it feels like everyone is against you.
You've got to show up when you feel like you're winning.
And you've got to show up when you feel like you're winning. And you've got to show up when you feel like you're losing.
It's your time and it's your turn.
But you're going to have to be willing to endure the temporary struggle.
You're going to have to be willing to deal with the negative chatter in your head.
Because it's not going away.
You've got to manage it. You got to
confront your fears. You got to confront your doubts. Success is not going to be handed to you.
Nobody owes you anything, but you owe you everything. You owe it to yourself to hang in there when it gets hard. You owe it to yourself
to get up every day and grind. You don't have time to focus on what other people are saying.
You don't have time to focus on what other people are doing. Experiencing a failure feels like a loss, but it's not. Failure is your teacher. It's working for you behind the scenes,
preparing you for your next win. There is no time like the present to fight for what belongs to you.
Your toughest moments are preparing you for your biggest victories.
Go after what you want and expect to get it. When you are serious about hitting your goals, you don't quit when it gets hard.
I don't care how many times you've tried.
Try again.
I don't care how many times you've heard no.
Ask again. I don't care how many times you've heard no. Ask again. I don't care how many times you fall. Get up. You don't stop when you get frustrated. You pursue for as long as it takes. So I have a question for you.
Are you disciplined enough to keep going?
Can I tell you something?
You ain't met the real you until you have to use your power
that's the real you
many of you
you're like a superhero
truth be told
you ought to rejoice
because you have
love power
joy power
faith power
you also have
comeback power
what is comeback power? comeback power is the ability
to overcome any obstacle challenge or difficulty you have this innate ability this instinct on the
inside that you can come back from anything your human side quits everything quickly you you you
you start a relationship on monday and you quit it by wednesday because y'all miscommunicate because
you miss one text and it's over that's your human side but then you got this other side that can come
back from anything there's a part of you that don't throw in towers.
There's a part of you that never says die.
There's a part of you that refuses to quit.
There's a part of you that has long suffered.
There's a part of you that when you get down for the count,
they can count up to eight, they can count to nine,
but ten, you are back on your feet.
There's a part of you
that no matter what comes your way you just got to bounce back up you you can't stay down no no
matter what is thrown your way you got something called come back power
you've been through some stuff means you had to face some stuff that i ain't never seen and you
might be walking a little slow now you might just be chilling now but little do we know if we saw
the videos of who you once was if we if we saw you in younger days we see you marching we we see you
tearing stuff up we see you why because you have come back that's the only reason why you made it to where you are today. You survive in environments that other people drown in.
Environment is everything.
Environment is everything.
There's a quote.
I don't know who's quoted it, but there's a quote that says,
Everyone is a genius.
But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb trees,
it will spend the rest of its life thinking that it's dumb.
Let me say it again.
Everybody is a genius.
But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb trees, it will spend the rest of its life thinking that it's dumb.
You survive an environment other people drown in.
Because water might drown you but it's
home for a fish
difficulty is not that not water you drowning that's perfect conditions for
you to swim difficulty you believe us This is what we do.
Huh?
This is what we do.
Be careful when you compare yourself to people who don't have the anointing you have.
Who don't have the call that you have.
Who don't have the purpose that you have.
I know what it did to them,
but it don't mean it's going to do that to you.
Difficulty doesn't kill who you are it actually
reveals who you are can i tell you something you ain't met the real you until you have to use your
power that's the real you you are treasure in jars of clay clay is not the real you. High you, that's not the real you. Smoking weed, that
ain't the real you. Drunk you is not the real you. Because whenever you get into it, you
start to feel alive. That anxiety you, that's not the real you. That clay has convinced you that that's who you are.
That clay made you think that the shy, scared, jealous, doubting you is actually you.
That's not you.
That's the clay that you may be in, but that's not you.
Underneath that clay, there is a spirit you.
There is a supernatural you.
There is a treasure on the inside.
And if that thing gets kicked in, your clay is in trouble.
But it's hidden in a jar of clay.
The reason why you don't know your superpower is because you can't see your suit because it's dressed in flesh
can i tell you something you ain't met the real you
until you have to use your power that's the real you you gotta take those dead clothes off
you gotta get up you gotta get up you gotta get up because you got comeback power.
Ladies and gentlemen, life, your existence is temporary.
It won't last forever. And if you're sitting around wasting it, if you're sitting around being hateful, if you're sitting around being hateful
if you're sitting around
being jealous
if you're letting
things outside of your circle
control your possibilities
your uniqueness, your qualities
your principles
who you
really are inside
then what's going to happen next?
There will come a time when you leave this world and they're going to put you in that hole.
And guess what, ladies and gentlemen, no one is going to jump in that hole with you.
No one is going to jump in there with you and celebrate that death that you just experienced.
Yes, I know it may sound a little harsh in fact it may even scare you but you can't fake this you can't hide from this
life is short
and the only thing that's beautiful about it is that when you're living
you have strong possibilities
you have something that you can be doing
to make it impactful for others to see
you can't stop
you can't stop living
you can't stop growing
you can't stop fighting
you have to understand that yesterday and today and tomorrow are in three different universes and the only universe you exist in right now is the now is this moment
is this reality
you can't fix anything that's already been broken
some things can mend
in time
and some things
are better off left alone
there are a lot of negative people right now
that exist in this world
and there are people that are going to watch this video. There are people
that are watching this video right now. There are people that are listening to this message right now.
And yet, they'll still find something that is not making them happy.
Stay with us.
We'll be right back.

You must make peace within your heart.
You must make peace within your spirit.
Life is so short.
Growth is about one word. Progress. What do you want for you and what do you need from you in order to make it happen? So if you're still consumed by what happened last year, last month, or even yesterday, guess what?
You are holding up your progress.
You are holding up your progress, but your future self wants you to get up.
You have to believe that you control your destiny.
Don't put that responsibility on anyone else but you.
It's either going to be focused on the future, focus on the present, or focus on the past.
That's it.
And I can tell you from personal experience that it's easy to get off track by focusing too much on your mistakes.
Or focusing too much on your missed opportunities.
Or focusing too much on what disappointed you or who disappointed you. What you don't want to do is put so much energy
into what happened that you miss out on what is happening. You should be in such a zone that your mind is only programmed to look forward.
You are not looking backwards. You are not looking to the right. You are not looking to the left.
You got to be focused. Once you get clear on what you want, you have to have the courage to chase it.
At the end of the day, you can't let your disappointment stop your grind.
Keep going.
Disappointment hurts, but you have to be willing to stay committed through the pain.
The people at the top of their game, they stay committed and they choose to keep
going even when they encounter resistance. If you are pursuing something big, guess what?
Opposition is coming. Difficulty is coming. Unexpected changes are coming. You can't control everything, but you can control your response to everything that happens in your life.
And so if you are determined to keep going, you've got to understand that your current challenge is just another hurdle for you to jump over.
What you are up against is
beneath you. It seems big because your mind and your feelings have convinced
you that it's big. It seems big because you have already determined that what
you're going through is too much for you to handle. But it's all about perception. You can view your challenge as an
opportunity or you can view it as a threat. When you view it as a threat, fear becomes your guide.
Fear becomes your compass. But when you view it as a challenge. Determination becomes your guide. If you look for a reason to quit, you're going to find it.
But just like you can come up with reasons why it makes more sense to quit,
you can come up with reasons why you have to hang in there.
Do you realize that your struggle is simply strength training?
Falling down happens, but staying down? That's a choice.
When you experience a setback, you can be discouraged or you can become more determined to keep going.
So how are you managing your thoughts?
Your mind can be your greatest source of fuel or your greatest hindrance.
Every time you follow through on doing what you didn't think you could do, you improve your confidence and your mind gets stronger.
If you want to keep going, you must pay attention to how you talk to yourself.
Your words are weapons that can work for you or against you.
Everything in my life when something got hard I quit. If it was reading that's what you know I
wasn't great at reading I wasn't great at writing so I just quit. I couldn't catch on as fast as you
I had to work harder than you so I quit. You know I wasn't great at things so I quit. You know, I wasn't great at things, so I quit. You know, I'm not good at this.
Like, man, if I could just go that distance, that extra mile, to just go, just to finish.
I want to finish.
I want to feel victory.
And victory for me wasn't winning.
It was just finishing.
So I said, you know what?
If I could feel like these guys feel, it would change my life.
But what I realized, the best feeling I had was when I was by myself trying to lose this
weight.
I had to lose it in literally less than three months.
106 pounds in less than three months.
And literally I started feeling victory just by putting myself in the battle.
It wasn't about going to Navy SEAL training.
It wasn't about being the 23rd guy in that chair.
I started realizing, man, just by going to war with myself every day
and putting these challenges and these goals and these obstacles,
these insurmountable obstacles.
So it wasn't about losing 106 pounds.
Me losing 5 pounds was an accomplishment.
Me losing 10 pounds and then 50 pounds.
The more I did this, the more I gained confidence.
And then the more I gained confidence, the more I realized,
these guys can't do what I'm doing right now.
I had no coach, had no trainer, had no money.
I didn't know how to lose weight.
I had no knowledge of what I was doing.
I was just working.
I was just sacrificing.
And then through that, all these different tools started coming up.
But I would have never found these tools
if I didn't put myself in a very uncomfortable place.
We all look for toughness.
We all want it.
But we look for it in a comfortable environment.
You will not find toughness in a comfortable environment.
Those of you who are listening to this, whoever hear this, you will not find it.
A winner is a dreamer who never gives up.
It's important for you to understand that your experience facing and overcoming adversity
is actually one of your biggest advantages.
How strong is your why?
It's not enough for you to just say,
I want to do well.
You have to believe that you will do well.
And you have to pursue it.
You have to keep going when you run into challenges.
Those who succeed are not fearless.
They had to show up even when they were afraid.
And I know it's difficult to follow your dreams,
but it's even worse if you don't.
You have to find a way to build your own dream,
or someone else will hire you to build theirs.
If you give up on your dream, what's left?
See, self-discipline begins with the mastery of your thoughts.
If you don't control what you think, you can't control what you do.
Your dreams are important.
They are significant. They are valuable. They matter.
You need to take your life, your your inspirations your aspirations your desires seriously because if you don't
no one else will you do have the power to create an amazing future It's okay to rest.
It's okay to take a break.
It's okay to take some time
to pull your thoughts together.
But it's not okay to quit.
See, self-discipline
is the bridge between goals
and accomplishment.
Self-discipline is the magic power that
makes you virtually unstoppable. Self-discipline is the center of the
universe for success. Self-discipline is doing within while you're doing without.
There are gonna be times when you feel like you're losing your mind And you study for hours
And you're going to take an exam
And you will not pass
A student is resilient
A student in discipline
A student is committed
A student is consistent
Why did you start in the first place?
And what was the emotion the
feeling what was the science and the psychology behind the decision that you
made and nine times out of ten I can tell you why you started you started
because you were hungry this is the year of the breakthrough this is the year the
what this is the year the word this is the year of the what? This is the year of the what? This is the year of the what? Act like you hear me. Every dream requires discipline. Every dream requires discipline.
You are your only limit. Your potential is endless. Go do what you dreamed you could do. Believe you can and you're halfway there. You cannot hold on
and think that every day is promised to you.
We have all experienced great losses in our life we have all felt that pain of losing a loved one someone that we
cared about
but yet we're still here and now we must go on but what is the example that we're
gonna leave what kind of leadership and what kind of leadership qualities do we have how do we go on how do we lead the next generation hate is not going to make it work
being afraid
to be truthful to who you are
will only limit who you truly are inside.
Don't let anyone take that away from you.
Don't let anyone take away who you are,
how true you are and what you matter in this world
to so many other people.
Don't be afraid to be honest. Don't be afraid to be truthful.
Don't be afraid to be different.
Even being different can be difficult to a lot of people.
But I guarantee you this,
there is nobody in the world that can do you.
