Starting point is 00:00:44 Bet on the sports you love with BetRivers Sportsbook. Take a chance. I'm not coach right now. I'm your conscience. You're in a fight between will and skill. I say will first because that's where you are. You locked and loaded with skill. You practicing every day. You putting in your work. You buying everything.
Starting point is 00:01:19 You making the investment. You living your dream. You walking like your dream. You surrounding yourself around your dream. You got mentors, everything you put in your work and you got your skill. Now it's a test of your will. It's a mindset thing you in right now. It's a mindset thing because your challenge, your challenge ain't moving. Your mountain is not moving. You don't feel like you're making any progress. You're not physically moving when you see everything else around you and other people around you moving. You not any progress. You're not physically moving when you see everything else around you and other people around you moving.
Starting point is 00:01:46 You're not making progress. You're in the test of your will right now because life says it has a little more test for you. It's no different because we've messed up because you fell off the wagon. You've been on alcohol and drugs and you gave up on life and you dropped out. You've been to jail one time, two times, three times. You really want your dream to happen and you're putting in your work and nothing's happening yet. Every transformation always gets worse before it gets better. It's supposed to be that way.
Starting point is 00:02:14 When you embark this journey, you must know that it's going to go down before it comes up. But when it comes up, it's going to go so much higher than you've ever been. The action of making progress is progress. The push itself, the fight, you get up and swing and miss, that's progress. You get up and you run at what you want with everything you got and you miss, that's progress. The effort of making the attempt is progress. It must happen. It can't do anything but move.
Starting point is 00:02:49 You can do anything but make progress. You pushing and you're pushing and you're pushing and you're pushing and you're doing everything right. You're tired, you're exhausted and ain't nothing happening yet. That word is what you're waiting for yet because i promise you if you keep pushing if you keep giving me all your effort it will happen you have to be equipped mentally to endure this process. Knowing what you're about to go into is step one.
Starting point is 00:03:26 Knowing it's an uphill battle, but a winnable one and one that's achievable. And at the end of this race, guys, you're going to be more capable. The first step, guys, is knowing it's a tough road. As soon as you decide to stop looking for answers in other people and miracles somewhere down the yellow brick road and click the heels of your mind and set your affections on things that are above you could have been free years ago all jealousy all pettiness all unforgiveness all strife all malice all confusion all blaming other people for your mistake. You got till midnight to get rid of every poison that's hindering you, every inflexibility
Starting point is 00:04:14 that's stopping you from what God is about to pour into your life. Won't be up to you if you go into another year and waste another year with the old mentality while somebody's in the hospital begging God for the opportunity that you have right now, you better step into this moment. My commitment and obsession is always to be better today than I was yesterday. If I have to make sacrifices to do that, so be it. If I have to tell that person I can't go out drinking with him anymore, so be it. Because that's not what I value. Anything or anyone that is taking me further away from my dreams has to go. I'm committed to self-development, not self-destruction. And you know, any person that is meant to be with me on the journey
Starting point is 00:05:07 will choose that higher road with me. Yes, a tougher road, but it's a much more rewarding one. I want my life to mean something. To be able to look back at my life and say, yeah, I made some tough decisions, but they were the right decisions. So many people don't get it. They piss their life away every weekend for what? So they can complain about their current circumstances for the rest of the week?
Starting point is 00:05:30 There's no chance. I'm in charge of my own life. It's all on me. I take responsibility. I take action. You'll never hear me complain about another person or circumstance as the reason I'm not where I want to be. If I don't like where I am, time to knuckle down and work harder. I am a perfect reflection of the hard work or lack of work I put in. And luck, that only comes
Starting point is 00:05:56 to those who have paid their dues. If I'm weak in a certain area, it won't be for long because I'm committed to be better. I will learn. I will read. I will make it happen. I will find a way. I will work until that weakness is turned into a strength. Welcome to Daily Motivation, where you get motivated and inspired. No one can beat me because I don't give up. I'm relentless. You might knock me down, but I never stay down. It's time to rise.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Rise up to your potential. Rise up past your limitations. Rise up past your family or friends' limitations. Set the standard for those around you. Don't conform to the standard like a sheep. out and lead the way get up rise up man up Thank you. My college and career was over. I got offered a job to become a hospital administrator. Two-year program, $75,000 job. And right before I took the job, my daddy called me on the phone. Let me tell you about my daddy. When I was a little boy, my daddy would always pick me up. When he came home
Starting point is 00:08:02 from work, he'd pick me up. When he saw me in the nursery after church, he picked me up. No matter how long he worked, no matter how tired he was, my daddy would always pick me up. So when I had my kids, I would always pick up my kids. When I got home, sometimes I was tired. They have a bottle in one hand and they just lift it up the other hand. And they knew what daddy was supposed to do. My job was to pick them up. This is a spiritual interaction. When you pick up
Starting point is 00:08:31 a child, it is a spiritual transaction. When you pick up a child, you change their perspective. When you pick up a child, all of a sudden they can see the world the way you see it i don't care what your children have done there's nothing they can do for you to stop picking them up well my daughter's a drug addict i don't care pick her up my son messes up i don't care pick him up I don't care you pick them up
Starting point is 00:09:11 that is your job mama that is your job daddy that is your job grandma that is your job granddad your number one job is to pick them up and change their perspective. My saddest day, one day, my daddy looked at me and he said, boy, you're too big. I can't pick you up anymore.
Starting point is 00:09:40 But when he couldn't pick me up physically, he would pick me up emotionally. He would pick me up spiritually. I had a great dad because he would always pick me up. He would always change. I respect him. So my daddy called me on the phone he asked me a question he said son you had a tough year what's next i said dad i'm gonna be a hospital administrator he said not bad but let me ask you a question son do you believe you're an nba player you cannot produce
Starting point is 00:10:25 your self-image, son. If you don't think so, go take the job. But if you believe you're an NBA player, go for it. My dad had the self-control and discipline
Starting point is 00:10:42 and waited for my answer. And my answer was yes you're right dad I can't work the rest of my life becoming the NBA is a dream I've had ever since I was a little boy he said go for it son I limped back into my coach's office
Starting point is 00:11:03 with a cast of my money tears in my eyes I limped back into my coach's office with a cast of my foot. Tears in my eyes. I said, Coach, what do I need to do to play in the NBA? He said, do two things you can play in the NBA. Lose 20 pounds and shoot a three-point shot with range, you can play in the NBA. If you lose 20 pounds and shoot a three-point shot with range, you can play in the NBA. I lost 20 pounds, and every day I would shoot 500 shots a day, every single day. I got invited to training camp with the Dallas Mavericks, and not only did I make the team, I became
Starting point is 00:11:32 the first ever undrafted rookie free agent in the history of the Dallas Mavericks to start off of the night. Could you imagine what was going through my mind? I had not started the basketball game since high school. I got to the arena and they dimmed the lights and they put the spotlight right on me. Right through the spotlight I saw my mom, my dad, and all my brothers and sisters. Then I saw my dad. He's pumped up his fist. He pumped his fist. He pumped his fist.
Starting point is 00:12:07 And tears streamed down my face. Thank you for all those timeouts. Thank you for making sure I was always home when the streetlights came on. Thank you for making sure I could always hear your voice. Thank you for always changing my perspective. Stay with us. We'll be right back.

Do you believe that one day you're not going to live in the world that was given to you? That's right, but you are going to actually live in the world that you dream of. You got to make every single second count. You gotta go in the future and see it baby, then you gotta come back in the present.
Starting point is 00:14:10 And you gotta take that big goal, that big dream, that big reality, that's what I said. You gotta take that big reality and we gotta take small steps and make it manageable to making your dreams become a reality. Think big, dream big, but start small. That's right, start small. Remember what I told you, start where you are with what you have, because what you have is plenty. The biggest enemy you have to deal with is yourself. There's an old African proverb that says, if there's no enemy within,
Starting point is 00:14:46 the enemy outside can do us no harm. You don't have to personally be perfect. Are you hearing me? There are those of you right now, you should have cut a CD. You should have wrote a book. You should have got in school and got that degree. You should have started your own business.
Starting point is 00:15:02 There's so many things you should have done. You should have done, but you didn't do it because you're scared you believe that you said scared of what the I ain't scared you are scared you are scared you're scared of failure you're scared to make a mistake you're scared that you're not perfect and I'm telling you today you ain't gotta be perfect are you hearing what I'm saying you don't have to be perfect to get what you want to do what you want to have what you want to be what you want you don't have to be perfect to get what you want, to do what you want, to have what you want, to be what you want. You don't have to be perfect. It's a lie. There will never be a point in your life where it's the right time to do a great thing.
Starting point is 00:15:38 If you're waiting for that perfect, perfect moment, that perfect timing, it's not going to happen. You know what you have to do you have to create the perfect time and the perfect opportunity and the perfect situation said a lot of people become comfortable they stop growing they stop wanting anything. They become satisfied. People getting ready to go to jobs that they don't like. Jobs that are making them sick. You see, when you're not pursuing your goal, you are literally committing spiritual suicide.
Starting point is 00:16:18 When you have some goal out here that you're stretching for and reaching for that takes you out of your comfort zone, you'll find out some talents and abilities you have that you didn't know you have. When the messenger of misery visits you, what are you going to do? What will keep you in the game? There are things that you think you'll never need to know, that you may only need to know one time in your life but that could save your life because you had that knowledge unless you attempt to do something beyond that which you've already mastered you will never grow what is it that you looked at at some point in time and you decided that you
Starting point is 00:16:56 couldn't do it that you talk yourself out of it you're waiting on your next door neighbor to make it happen for you it may not happen if you wait know your mother or your father, they may be so ancient in their thinking that they don't understand this opportunity that you have. And if you're waiting on them, it may never get done. You don't beg average people to be phenomenal. You don't beg good people to be phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:17:17 You just are phenomenal and you will attract phenomenal. What reason can you remember that you can call on that you can reach on that can make you get back up by that reason if you're not where you are if you're not where you want to be if you don't have what you want to have if you're not where you think you should be at this particular place it has nothing to do with the system but it has everything to do with the fact that you're not making the sacrifice I want you to make that trade become a reality because if you don't you will be working for somebody else to make their dreams become a reality
Starting point is 00:17:54 question is what are you gonna do with your time what drives you greatness is a lot of small things done well day after day workout after workout obedience after obedience day after day when things don't work out for you when things happen that you could not anticipate what are the reasons that you can think of that can keep you strong you will never ever be successful until you turn your pain into greatness, until you allow your pain to push you from where you are to push you to where you need to be. Stop running from your pain and embrace your pain. Your pain is going to be a part of your
Starting point is 00:18:40 prize, a part of your product. I challenge you to push yourself. See, it's easy to be on the bottom. It doesn't take any effort to be a loser. It doesn't take any motivation, any drive in order to stay down there on a low level. But it calls on everything in you. You have to harness your will to say, I'm going to challenge myself. I mean that what you did last week don't count. Today, today is the only important day. There are 86,400 seconds in a day, and how you use those are critical. You got 86,400 today, and what you do today is going to see me who you are. Nobody's going to talk about what you did last week.
Starting point is 00:19:23 You have this opportunity of a lifetime. It means absolutely nothing if you don't take advantage of it in the lifetime of this opportunity. I got a saying that when life knocks you down, try and land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up. If you want a thing bad enough to go out and fight for it, to work day and night for it, to give up your time, your peace, and your sleep for it. If all that you dream and scheme is about it, and life seems useless and worthless without it. See, it's time now.
Starting point is 00:19:50 If you want to make this your decade, you've got to start saying yes to your life. You've got to start saying yes to your dreams, yes to your unfolding future, yes to your potential, as opposed to saying no. When you die, die on earth. Leave no dream left behind, guys.
Starting point is 00:20:09 Leave no opportunity left behind. When you leave this earth, accomplish every single thing you can accomplish. Listen to me. You're going to be here one day, but you'll never get here if you give up. If you give in. If you quit. And finally, guys, you got to want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe. What people think about you and the possibilities for your dream is none of your business.
Starting point is 00:20:51 The attitude is it can't be done because they haven't seen it. History is being read, but it's also being written by people with imagination. It's necessary you take responsibility for it. That you make it happen, that you don't give up, that you don't take any objection or disappointment or defeats personally, that you keep on keeping on, that you don't decide that I can't make it because you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, that you realize that's a part of the program. As the physically weak man can make himself strong
Starting point is 00:21:27 by careful and patient training, so the man of weak thoughts can make them strong by exercising himself in right thinking. To put away aimlessness and weakness and to begin to think
Starting point is 00:21:38 with purpose is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment, who make all conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully.
Starting point is 00:21:59 He who would accomplish little must sacrifice little. He who would achieve much must sacrifice much. He who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly. What are you going to do starting tomorrow that'll make a difference? Major step to human progress discipline if there's one thing to get excited over that's it get excited over your ability to make yourself do the necessary things because the story you have about your life, about your business, about the area of your life that's not where you want to be, the story is what's making you stop.
Starting point is 00:22:54 Yes, it's hard. It's hard. And we will do it hard. And once we do it hard, we go through, we realize it was worth it. And once you discover it was worth it, it is done. Study the things that can change your economic, social, spiritual, personal life. See, you don't want to wind up at the end of your life and discover that you've lived only one-tenth of it. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Maybe you're at the darkest point in your life And you're ready to give up You're at a point in your life Where you feel like it's do or die
Starting point is 00:23:49 You're going through so much pain You're going through so much agony You're ready to give up You're ready to quit I got one word for you Warrior Woo Warrior
Starting point is 00:24:01 Fear Is not Woo! Warrior! Fear is not real. The only place that fear can exist is in our thoughts of the future. It is a product of our imagination, causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. Fear is a choice. Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go. I want your dream to be so clear
Starting point is 00:24:48 that when you wake up in the morning all you got to do is step in your dream. And the first step for me was seeing something I was not before I was. You can do it. Where you are is temporary. You will not be there for the rest of your life. I don't care what happens in your life. I don't care what it looks like. I don't care where you are. Every single day you wake up, if you're going to have energy, if you're going to have passion, if you're going to have drive, every day you wake up, you've got to start with that vision. This is a mentality. Like've got to live this. You've got to eat this.
Starting point is 00:25:26 You've got every single thing you do is not a cute thing. It is a way of life. It's got to possess everything you do. It's got to own you. There's no reason to have a plan B because it distracts from plan A. I want to see how far I can go. I want to see what I can accomplish. I want to see what I can do, what I can be, what I can have.
Starting point is 00:25:53 I want to see. I don't want to see what I think I can do. I don't want to see what I think is possible. I want to see what my life would look like if I didn't count the cars and if I was willing to go further than anybody else was going to do. You can't do anything without faith. It's impossible to accomplish anything without faith. So I need you to believe there is still time as long as there's breath in your nostrils, as long as you can wake up in the morning. The first step before anybody else in the world believes it is you have to believe it.
Starting point is 00:26:34 So I need you to believe. Because if you're willing to go through all the battling you got to go through to get to where you want to get, who's got the right to stop you? I mean, maybe some of you guys got something you never finished, something you really want to do, something you never said to someone, something. And you're told no, even after you pay your dues. Who's got the right to tell you that? Who? Nobody. It's your right to listen to your gut. It ain't nobody's right to say no after you earn the right to be where you want to be and do what you want to do. You got to do what you was called to do. You got to do what you were born to do. You gotta do what you were born to do. You gotta do what works for you because if you do what works for you, you gonna blow up.
Starting point is 00:27:12 It's in your DNA. It's who you are. You are a warrior. It's time for you not to back up, not to give up, not to give in. Even you get knocked down, you get back up, you get back up, you get back up, and you continue to throw shit against the wall. Listen to me very carefully. You are a warrior, and it's time for you to fight. I know you have that warrior inside. And now I just need you to activate it. Keep going.
Starting point is 00:28:09 As dark as it gets, keep going. As difficult as it gets, as much as it seems as if the world is crumbling down around you and there's no way out, keep going. See, most people stop. They don't get it. They quit. They quit reaching for their dreams. I notice that there are those who are squashers of dreams. Now, I don't know why these people do this. I don't know why the naysayers or squashers do this. Grow stronger and then inspire others to become the strongest version of themselves. That's how we evolve. I go beyond the fears and limitations of other people. control my life no matter what road you take in life there are always going to be things you have to do that you just don't want to do go and do the thing look you only get this life once every
Starting point is 00:28:56 experience that we have leads us to who we are where we stand and that's always the right place to be if you can't't, you must. If there's something that you can't do because there's an obstacle in your way, that means it's your responsibility to do that thing so that you can destroy the obstacle. Failure is necessary. Failure is success, and success is failure. They need each other. The more failures you have, the more successes you'll have. The darker the night, the brighter the day. The harder the ball hits the ground, the higher it goes up. Pain is a beautiful thing.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Challenge is what life is about. A life without challenge, a life without pain is a life without growth. So not only do I embrace the challenge, embrace the pain, but I even look forward to it. Send me a challenge. Please, give me some challenges here because I need to be tested. I need to be stronger. I need to grow. You know, they say there's a judgment day.
Starting point is 00:30:36 I believe we face multiple judgment days while we're walking on earth. The judgment day is today. Judgment day is now. And the judgment is going to allow you to live a life of hell now or to choose your own kingdom. Listen to me very carefully. You are a warrior. Thanks for listening.
