Starting point is 00:00:00 I genuinely believe in manifestation and I have been so lucky in my life. It seems like if I want something, all I've got to do is say in an interview and then a couple years later it'll come true. What kind of superhero would I want to play? Maybe Spider-Man in like 10 years time. My favourite video game is this little game called Uncharted. There are so many directors. On my mind at the moment is Christopher Nolan. Tom is somebody I hadn't worked with before, but I've admired his work for years and I really wanted to work with them and so we met. I convinced them to do it. If you could be in a movie with any three actors, alive or dead, who would you pick?
Starting point is 00:00:36 Jay Jalenhall and Anne Hathaway. Anne Hathaway. I think she's great. Who was your first ever celebrity crush? Zendaya. Tom Holland has finally confirmed that he and Zendaya are married. Even though in that interview I said, I want to be Spider-Man in the future, I didn't just sit back and relax and then it happened.
Starting point is 00:00:58 There's manifesting, but there's also work. that goes into it. We are all looking to manifest something. What you do today will determine your future. I was so incredibly delusional. And I was just not visualizing just my exercise, but I was really lifting the trophy over my head. With the age of 20, I went to London and I won the Mr. Universe contest
Starting point is 00:01:28 as the youngest Mr. Universe ever. And it was because I had a goal. I had a goal because I believed. I remember I would blow out the candles and I'd say, I want to be on Saturday Night. Every year, all of my birthdays, any wish that I could make. That's what I wished, that I could be on Saturday Live. And so maybe that pressure that I put on myself drove me to figure it out.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Whatever it is that you are wanting to manifest, you speak to it as though it's already happened. You're manifesting all the time. What people don't realize, though, is that many of the decisions they make in their lives, the relationship, the decisions they make are actually based on the baggage that they carry and that is the narrative of their story. I'm going to do it. It's done. It's already done.
Starting point is 00:02:21 The second I decide it's done. It's already done. Our desires and our commitment to the ideas of our future are all it matter. Look at things, successes in my own mind. And many of them are when I wrote the headline first, I set the goal and I went after it. Some of y'all, you're not getting close to the vision. You didn't say in division and your mama said something about it, so you didn't back off. You didn't say something about the vision and somebody tried to kill you and you didn't back off.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Are you hearing what I'm trying to tell you? I'm telling you that you've got to be possessed with the vision. Know it you're doing it. If you know it, you're living it. If you know it, you're manifesting it. You're producing it. And so therefore, as you look at yourself, you've got to have this vision of yourself beyond your circumstances.
Starting point is 00:03:13 What is your life's purpose? What is your destiny? Why on earth are you here? So I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil. Why? The vision got to be done before I get done. out of here. Before I leave
Starting point is 00:03:33 this earth, the vision got to be done. If you can hear your future self talking to you now, the future you would say thank you for not giving up. Thank you for not throwing in the towel. Thank you for not allowing the despair and the
Starting point is 00:03:50 anguish and the anger and the bitterness and the jealousy and the ego to eat away at your progress and your perseverance and your ability to travail and endure. Do you believe in manifestation? Fourth grade, I went in my closet.
Starting point is 00:04:09 I said, I am going to the NBA. Anything you invoke with I am after it, the power of manifestation and what can happen in the universe comes true. Because I always remember my mother always said to me, if you can see it, you can be it. The first step before anybody else in the world believes it is you have to believe it. Wake up every day. How bad do you want it?
Starting point is 00:04:32 How bad do you want in your dream? It's so much easier. easier to forget that vision than to remember it. Make this note, don't become a victim of yourself. Forget the thief in the alley that's after your purse. What about the thief in your mind that's after your promise? Don't doubt your own ability. There's this thing about people and they talk about manifesting.
Starting point is 00:04:59 It's real man. Manifesting is real. When 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 and being who they say they're going to become it's real anything's possible and there's no excuses there's no days off there's no not willing to grind and they lay out these short-term goals and this roadmap on how to get there. Most of those people make it.
Starting point is 00:05:38 Anytime you want to, you can say I'm going to change my attitude. I'm going to change my abilities. Take on that as your God-given right to change your life to whatever degree you want it to change. Everything comes from the imagination. So the power of the mind, people don't understand. We still don't understand. I still don't understand how powerful it is. I'm still learning. Why no one thing is I can make things happen. The question is, will you put the work in that is required to manifest? I'm just wondering if there's anybody here that wants their future, that wants to fulfill their destiny,
Starting point is 00:06:13 that wants to manifest, that wants to walk in discipline and determination. I'm just wondering, is there anybody here that's willing to disappear? In the core of your being, do you realize that you're a star? Yeah, I always knew so. I knew I wasn't going to be regular. I just knew, like, I was going to be great at something. I didn't know what it was, but I knew I was going to be great at something.
Starting point is 00:06:38 I just knew. Bro, I can manifest like a motherfucker. If you have an idea that you genuinely think is good, don't let some idiot talk you out of it. If there is something that you feel is good, something you want to do, something that means something to you, try to do it.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Is there any limit to your ambition or any limit to what you think you can achieve? No, because I think right now, if I was to quit rapping and I say, I want to go to the NBA, I would be in the NBA. No, you would. Yes. No, you would. Yes, I would. Why would you think you could make it to the NBA? Because I think I could do anything.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Some people can see farther than others. So therefore, when people judge what I'm doing with their logic, it be done. be done. Their reasons they can or shouldn't be done. Their knowledge of history says it can be done. So that reason, their knowledge and their logic matches my superior belief. Therefore, the result is they don't believe. See, let me share something with you. The easiest thing I've ever done was to earn a million dollars. The most difficult thing I've ever done was to believe it could happen to me. That was the most difficult part. to believe and if it goes number one
Starting point is 00:08:06 it goes number four it goes number four I don't care because you know we're the best band on the planet with the best songs most people never pick up the phone and call most people never ask and that's what separates sometimes the people that do things
Starting point is 00:08:21 from the people that just dream about them you got to you got to act because you have nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing to lose absolutely nothing and you have everything to gain. This is the first office of Amazon.com. Hi, YouTube.
Starting point is 00:08:39 This is Chad and Steve. We're the co-founders. And we just want to say thank you. Today we have some exciting issue. We've been acquired by Google. All right, man. Hey, good luck, man. Don't give up.
Starting point is 00:08:49 I don't tell nobody. Don't be scared about nothing. Best of love to you. Don't be afraid. Don't say nobody who's negative either. Be positive. That's my about nothing? Listen, I've got 18.
Starting point is 00:09:00 67 million pounds in the bank I've got a Rolls Royce. I'm part of the greatest band in the world. Am I happy with that? No, I'm not. I want more! I sparked that first stream up. I had that one viewer, and that viewer made me keep going. And each day and each day and more, week two, I gained, I started averaging four viewers.
Starting point is 00:09:21 Week three, eight viewers, week four, 20 viewers. And once I start something, I'm not stopping. And the winner for streamer of the year, I show speed. What's better? Take eight big risk in life. Sin once, miss the mark once, but get seven, achieve seven. Seven out of eight. Or take a hundred risk.
Starting point is 00:09:45 And achieve eight of them. My hunch is that there's a God, he's saying, go for the hundred and get eight, rather than eight and get seven. If you're not taking enough risk to sin or miss the mark, which is what sin means, to fail. What are you doing? Don't go back with even money. Go back with the safe bets. All the what ifs and the scenarios that you create inside your own mind that are way worse than anything that is actually going to happen,
Starting point is 00:10:13 they all disappear when you go. Night after night, every single night of my life. All I know, I don't know nothing else. I did it, I did it, bro. I did it, bro. I did it, bro. What if I do all this work? What if I fucking do all this?
Starting point is 00:10:28 What if I changed my whole life? What if I do this work for the next 10 years? And then it ends up not work. And I don't get chosen. What if I can become someone that no one thinks I can be? And just me talking about that, I have the hair going up on my arm. Because it makes me just like, what if? Go.
Starting point is 00:10:53 It's the what if I can pull off a fucking miracle. Go. Man, I'm climbing the ladder. I'm bringing my team. I'm coming for magazines and movie screens. billboards and awards, movie scores and labels, I'm signing checks and contracts on every table. I'm no longer stuck in the basement, stuck in the gutter.
Starting point is 00:11:18 Being on your deathbed and standing around your bed, the dreams given to you by life, the ideas that you never acted on, looking at you with large angry eyes saying, we came to you and only you could have given us life and now we must die with you forever. I have worked while you have slept and I will live like you dream. I want to do this thing, but what if it doesn't work? Do it anyways. The hardest part of making millions of dollars in being successful in business is becoming
Starting point is 00:12:02 the person who is able to do the thing. That's the hardest part. Hardest part is the hardest part. That's not, doing things that don't make you a million dollars, that's not the hardest part. The hardest part is you becoming the person who has enough intestinal fortitude and grit to go down into the laboratory, the cave, the drawing board, whatever you want to call it, and obsess over this problem long enough to find an elegant, effortless, effective solution. That's the part. Because most people don't have enough intestinal fortitude. they don't have enough stick-to-itiveness, they don't have enough grit, alas, through the learning curve, to become the person who can do the thing that makes them deserve to have the stuff. Yeah, even if you take, like, even if you take a tree growing in a garden, you plant the seed in the ground,
Starting point is 00:12:55 in order for the seed to become a tree, the first thing it must do is exactly the same as the first thing we must do when we're getting ready to go through our transformation. What is that? it must be willing to cease to be a seat. Unless I'm willing to cease being what I've always been, I can never become whatever I can't have the potential to become. If I were to give people one single tool that would help them improve their lives,
Starting point is 00:13:21 I would invite them to embrace the awareness and to use as a tool their consciousness that your life is not about you. It's about everyone else whose life you touch. and the way in which you touch it. Everything that you hope to manifest in your life and searching for all the good things in life come to you automatically, almost without trying.
Starting point is 00:13:48 That's all you'll need to transform your experience of who you are and to touch everyone else in life in a way that would allow them to begin to experience who they are. I came to realize that it's not about me. The experience is yours, but the experience that people take from the content you will never own. I will never know how much
Starting point is 00:14:11 what I do affects people or doesn't. I'm not responsible for what happens with what is created once it's out in the world. The reason I was there was not to have a personal experience. The reason I was there was to make a film that could potentially shed light on an issue or teach something to people because I was so busy worrying about
Starting point is 00:14:32 being Mr. Programmaker and making this film, that was perfect in my mind's eye, whereas in reality, the conversation that was being had never been had before. And as a result, it actively changed lives of people watching. It literally changed the lives of people that messaged me. It wasn't about me.
Starting point is 00:14:51 And being comfortable with that is quite difficult, but also quite freeing in a lot of ways. People come to the work for all kinds of reasons. Sure. And I don't really care. But by the time they start doing the work, all they really want to do is get. Because when you feel so amazing and feel so great about yourself that you no longer want anything,
Starting point is 00:15:12 the first thing you want to do is give. I mean, and it's just a practice. And as you do that and you start seeing all the fun things happening, it's not like, oh, I got to go create my life today. You're like, you're like, I got to go. Because I don't want the magic to stop. So I just do it because I love the crazy, magical, wonderful things that happened that I would just, never anticipated in my life. And so people are catching onto it, and they start coming for one reason.
Starting point is 00:15:41 You know, they want money or they want to help. But it's not about your money. It's not about your health. It's not about your new relationship. It's not even about the mystical moment. It's about who you become in the process. Because overcoming all those limitations to become somebody else, nobody can take that away from you.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Your matters are the peace of the world. You are beyond yourself. You're greater than yourself. Nelson Mandela said there is no passion to be found playing small in settling for a life that's less than the one you're capable of living. Anything you could think of. If you could actually think of it, it means you can do it, right? Does that make sense? So if it, so if it pops up in your brain, it means that you have the ability to do it.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Why? Because the brain would never think of something that it could. could not do. So don't be afraid to go outside the box. Don't be afraid to think outside the box. Don't be afraid to dream big. One of the tricky things I think with people is they haven't ever stopped to think about what they want because they think they can't have it. And so to think about what they want is too painful. What people think about you and the possibilities for your dream is none of your business. They have no imagination, ladies and gentlemen. gentlemen, they're living out of the past, out of their memory.
Starting point is 00:17:10 The attitude is it can't be done because they haven't seen it. Let's say you wanted to start a podcast in the past, and you did three episodes, and then you fell off. And so then Criticizer gets one point, and then they think, I told you so, why are you doing another kick like this? Oh, you're going to try that now. Okay, here we go again. The thing is that you are still closer, having done three than having done zero. But you don't get it, Gary. I've lost my whole life.
Starting point is 00:17:37 And just because you've been losing doesn't mean you can't win. I call it the Monday Night Miracle thesis. The Monday Night Miracle is when the New York Jets were losing to the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football 30 to 7 with like 10 minutes left in the game. And came all the way back in one. Just because you've sucked at life. And you're like, it's not true. I'm not awesome.
Starting point is 00:17:58 I've lost at everything. Drug abuse. Lost my loved one. Like losing. Like by how we would all consider it, I literally believe that you can win. And many have. When you deploy love, not hate. So many have poison in their soul.
Starting point is 00:18:17 They've got to get it out. As you think, so you become. The mind is like a factory, a mental factory. And whatever you think about all day long pours ingredients into this mental factory. Can you imagine dumping a barrel of trash into this mental factory every day? and coming out with a rich, dynamic, positive life, it can't be done. And it starts with thought. Everything starts with thought.
Starting point is 00:18:46 So you must be wise and careful what you think about because that starts everything. The easiest thing I've done was to get out from under the labels and to live the life that I live. The most difficult thing I've ever done was, to believe that I can do it. I think every thought that you have makes a chemical. And you can have thoughts that make you feel good and thoughts that make you feel bad. If 90% of the thoughts that we think are the same thoughts as the day before, the same thoughts lead to the same choices.
Starting point is 00:19:26 But I do think that if you think differently and you learn new information and you have new thoughts, if you can make new choices and demonstrate new behaviors and create new behaviors and create new experiences and arrive at new goals and feel new emotions, I would say that's evolution. And I think that people really, really secretly believe in themselves on some level. And I think being defined by a vision of the future or really always, always dreaming of another great experience, I think is a great reason to wake up in the morning.
Starting point is 00:20:00 And you could live a very, you know, contained life. You're scared of being ridiculed. You're scared of humiliation. You're scared of saying, saying, I want to do great things and then not doing great things. But I would argue saying you want to do great things and not doing great things is better than just not doing anything. I'm not saying anything.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Give it a crack. If you're going to do it, do it. Say what you can do. Do what you say. You can't do it. Don't say you can do it. Don't over leverage yourself. Don't over leverage a decision and then jump in and kind of dip a toe.
Starting point is 00:20:37 I think I'll try it out. think if you're going to try it out beforehand, but when it's time to go, dive. Finish it, find out. Come out the other side. Don't leave it and go, if I just scored it, uh-uh. That keeps me up at night. I think it keeps a lot of us up at night. When you half-assed something, you just don't know, whether you failed or succeeded,
Starting point is 00:20:55 got what you want or didn't get what you want, finding out and looking in the mirror and going, I didn't have ass it. I went all the way. I found out, and that ain't for me. Or I found out, and you damn right, that is for me. That's a great place to get to. Smart people like the idea of being cynical because it seems like you've considered all of the options. Only somebody that's a, you know, a smooth-brained idiot would believe that things are going to go well.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Obviously, you know, that's what that's what the Normie Midwits think. But it fails to recognize that your experience of your life is largely determined by the story that you tell yourself about it. If you have judgmental parents or judgmental friends or judgmental whatever's and you date people and you bring them home, if they say, I don't think this is, the girl for you. They're right every single time your entire life except for the one person that you decide to marry. And then they are absolutely wrong at the time that it mattered most. And the thing is, is they get to say on your sixth girlfriend and seventh girlfriend and eighth girlfriend, because let's face it, you've been alive for a while. I have a perfect, I have a perfect guess. I'm right 100% of the time. This rule will see how long this one lasts. And two years in, they're like, see,
Starting point is 00:22:05 you finally broke up with her. I told you at the beginning it wasn't going to. last. Well, it never for the one that's going to stick. Duh. And the business never works until it's the one that does. It's not about them being right or wrong. Again, it's about how right and how wrong they could be. And so it's just about directional correctness and realizing that criticizers are more often correct, but when it matters most, incorrect. The amount of people that quit three weeks before their shit that they spent four years on pops off is there's, it's a real number. It's happened quite a bit in the world. The amount of people that quit, their life stream, the day before it was going to click, breaks my heart.
Starting point is 00:22:56 There was a time in my room, and I'll never forget this. 2008, I just got cut from the Seahawks. I'm in my parents' house because I don't want to go out. Looking around my room, all the trophies, all the jerseys, see my one-year-old son. And I said, man, is this it? Is this the mecca of my life? And something inside of my soul said, it's not it. It's just the beginning.
Starting point is 00:23:25 And there was no external evidence of that. I had to trust that internal knowing that this was it. One of the best things you can ever do in your life is to change your words. Your tongue, your words have the ability to shape your world. You got to get to a place where you say, you know what, I got to stop talking about what I don't have. And who's not here and what someone didn't give me? I got to stop talking death and I got to start talking life. When you look at your life, I promise you there was a conversation.
Starting point is 00:24:03 connection between the life you live and the words you have spoken. Because my words can change and shift my world. So many people rehearse mentally what they're about to do. And when they do that, they actually prime their brain. They actually can change their brain and change their body just by thought alone. What thoughts do I want to fire and wire in my brain? Let me become familiar with those. What behaviors do I want to demonstrate? What would greatness do? What would be the feeling that I want to feel if I was able to do it? Would it be worth?
Starting point is 00:24:39 Would it be self-love? Would it be freedom? Would it be joy? Let me teach my body emotionally what a future could actually feel like before it happens. The more you rehearse it mentally, the more you prime your brain and body for the act. So you could actually practice rehearsing how you're going to change in your life. Teach your body emotionally that there's another way. way to feel and do it over and over again to become familiar to you.
Starting point is 00:25:06 Intentionally act like the person you want to become. That's not fake until you make it, by the way. This is intentional because when you intentionally act like the person you want to become, your brain sees you taking those actions so your brain starts to change the way it relates to you. Everyone says, I want to be the world's best tennis play. I want to be the world's best basketball part. I want to be the world's greatest podcaster. That's already been done. there's another level you're not thinking big enough the process it takes to be number one and stay at number one your dreams and thoughts better be so big that they better scare you
Starting point is 00:25:48 it has to be something that nobody else has thought about before or done before what success looks like for any individual person is going to be different unfortunately you can't take somebody else's purpose or success you can't wear it as a suit it's a bad idea right because it's going to not fit if something doesn't fit eventually it's going to hurt wiring it. If you're not careful with how you design what it is that you chase after, you can spend your entire life realizing that you climbed a very, very long ladder
Starting point is 00:26:18 that was leaning up against the wrong wall. I truly think that the thing that I've suffered from the most in my life, as I look at Kobe and all these pictures of these great people, you know, dude, I just thought too small. True desire in the heart, that itch that you have, that thing that you want to do to help others and to grow and to make money, that desire, that itch, that's God's proof to you, sent beforehand already to indicate that it's yours.
Starting point is 00:26:45 You only get one right around this thing. You don't think big. Most people just don't understand that you are being primed all the time, and unless you prime yourself, you're going to be primed by the environment. So I want to take control of my brain. So I do three quick things. One, I take three minutes of those ten minutes, after I've changed my mind. I've changed my body, and I focus on three different events in my life that I'm grateful for.
Starting point is 00:27:19 I usually pick two big ones and one small one. It could be as simple as a smile on my daughter's face, and it changes your biochemistry. Then real fast, I do this three-minute process that's kind of like a blessing, and then three minutes, the last three minutes are called three to thrive, where I focus on three things I want to accomplish. And instead of thinking I want to accomplish, I see, feel, and experience it is done. I feel grateful. I celebrate it.
Starting point is 00:27:42 And it trains your brain. So in 10 minutes, I'm done. Third thing that I'll do, I immediately send a message or a text or an audio message to somebody as a sincere compliment. And I don't go, dude, great job, or wow, you're cool. I say, listen, I saw you on Tuesday with those kids, and I saw you take that extra 20 minutes. No one has did. I just want you know, I saw that I thought that was incredible. So I'm always very specific so they know it's not just some positive thinking bullshit call.
Starting point is 00:28:11 It's sincerely doing it. It makes me constantly look for the good and the people I work with. Fourth thing I do is whatever I don't want to do, the most challenging part of the day. What's a story we all love? It's the comeback story. It's the comeback. It's the rocky. It's that music where all of a sudden you step back up and you take control and rock.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Good times create weak people. Weak people create bad times. Bad times create strong people. strong people create good times great good times
