Welcome, this is Daily Motivations by Tolu Dave, where you get inspired and motivated.
You will fail at some point in your life. Accept it.
You will lose.
You will embarrass yourself.
You will suck at something.
There's no doubt about it.
Hey, I'm telling you, embrace it.
Because it's inevitable.
Direction determines destination.
Destination is not determined by hope.
It's not determined by wish. Destination is not determined by hope, it's not determined by wish.
Destination is determined by direction.
You know, every time you lose at something, you're one step closer to winning the next time.
The difference between successful people and not successful people are people give up.
People wake up every morning, they have doubt, they have fear.
They lose in a Ferrari race or they lose in a race and then they just give up.
The hardest thing in life to learn is to lose. Winning is easy. You win, you're happy, you get a
high five, your friends are happy. It's your ability to take a loss, get up the next day, dust yourself
off and keep going. I have lost at everything you can imagine. Seriously, we have I have been beat up and put down and everything that can go wrong has gone wrong for me.
But I just kept going. But here's the thing. I didn't quit. I didn't fall back.
I suggest to you that if you are facing a challenge, don't stop. Stay busy.
Work your plan.
Continue to do those things that you know that work for you after you have evaluated yourself in the situation.
Continue to move.
Stay busy.
Stay busy.
Stay busy.
I prayed.
I prayed.
And I prayed.
But I continued to fail and fail and fail.
But it didn't matter because you know what?
There's an old saying, you hang around the barbershop long enough, sooner or later you're going to get a haircut.
So you will catch a break.
And I did catch a break. If you constantly remind yourself after every defeat, after every
setback, every time you get knocked down, I've got a saying, if life knocks you down, try and land on
your back because if you can look up, you can get up. See, a lot of people because of failure,
they stop, they stop believing. Let me share something with you. You will fail your way to
success. Yes. Eight out of 10 millionaires have been financially bankrupt. You will fail your way to success. Yes. Eight out of ten millionaires have been financially bankrupt.
You will fail your way to success. It doesn't matter how many times you fail. It doesn't matter
how many times people tell you that you can't do it. It doesn't matter if you don't have a dime
in the bank. You will fail your way to success. You cannot change destination overnight.
You cannot change destination overnight. You cannot change destination overnight.
Which means you can't arrive at a five years from now place tomorrow.
But here's what you can change today and overnight.
You can change direction.
One of the biggest challenges for people is everybody wants a better quality of life.
Everybody wants life to be greater, but almost all of us get stuck at times where something stops us,
something prevents us from doing something that we really are capable of doing.
Whether it's turning around our body or shifting a relationship or turning around our finances
or maybe just being happy and fulfilled at a different level,
we get stuck with a belief of how we're not supposed to be, what we're not supposed to do, what people won't accept, what we're not
capable of.
Or maybe we get stuck in an emotional pattern of just being pissed off or frustrated or
worried or sad or overwhelmed.
Sometimes we get stuck, you know, not so much in anything but some just some habits of doing
things a certain way.
And what a breakthrough simply is, is that moment in time where there's an opening
and the opening can come from a conversation it can come from meeting somebody that inspires you
it can come from an insight it can come from watching a movie and being moved emotionally
just that right moment it usually comes because something kind of clicked inside of us something
snapped us and made us look at life through a different filter in a different way. And you know, it's a real breakthrough because you take that little insight,
that little distinction, that little moment, or maybe that little or big emotion inside of you
that says no more, I'm going to change this. And suddenly you do something to make your life
better. You break out of the impossibility of life has to be this way, or life is controlling me.
And you start to take back control of your life you start to make the shift that creates the quality of life that you really deserve everybody
experiences extreme stress at some point in their life i don't care who we are something happens
outside our control and it hits our life and it knocks us on our tail it might be a health stress
it could be something with your family it It could be economic, career. It could be something emotional that happens, biochemical. There's so many things. It could be an environmental situation that had nothing to do with you.
Every one of us in our lifetime are experiencing extreme stress. And these days, because of the economy and the way we respond to it, the majority of people are experiencing some form of extreme stress, at least according to polls. Stress doesn't come from the facts. Stress comes from the meaning that we give them facts.
Yes, those things have happened. But the real question is, if we fight what's happened,
we've got a problem. We've got to decide, what are we going to do with what's happened
in our life? How are we going to take this? How are we going to mold this? How are we
going to turn our life around? Because when you come up with a new meaning, you get a
new life. So what are we going to do in this session? Well, well in this session we're going to take a look at something from a different
perspective we're going to ask you this question what is the single force that controls the quality
of your life if there was one gift our creator has given us or the universe whatever you believe
what is it what is the one power that you have right now in this moment that can change everything
you have it i have it we all have it it's this one singular individual power that can change
anything in our life regardless of what's happened to us and i know you know the answer the answer is
the power of choice the one thing we have in this world is we can't control the events but we can
choose what to focus on we can choose what things mean and we can
choose what to do those three choices those three decisions really control our
life it's not so much the conditions of our life that control our destiny as
much as the decisions of our life try for a second to think about something
think about your life and just think about are there a few decisions if I
were to ask you two decisions you've made your life you just think about, are there a few decisions? If I were to ask you two decisions
you've made in your life, you know, that if you would have made a different decision, you would
have a totally different life, but you won't be able to do it when you're telling yourself the
sky is falling and it's over. When you see it worse than it is, you'll just give up. You won't
do it if you don't tell yourself the truth is, you know what, this system isn't working. I got to do something. I got to change my finances. I got to change my
job. I got to reach. If you don't tell yourself the truth and deal with the truth, the real truth,
nothing's going to happen. When you fight life and go, I should be a singer, not a mom. And you
got five kids. You got a problem. When you fight life and say, you know, the economy should be
different. You're going to be stressed. Deal with what is.
Without exaggeration, with total honesty,
dealing with the cards, coming up with a vision,
finding yourself a role model that shows your strategy,
work your tail off, give, give, give,
keep changing your approach, and you can get where you want to go.
Make sense?
Whatever you have produced,
it came out of you as a result of the kind of person that you have become. It's a result of your choices, it's a result of your consciousness.
Now you have to ask yourself, are you satisfied with what you have produced?
Is this what you want?
Would you like for things to be better than this?
Do you believe that you deserve better than this?
Are you content? This is it, You don't have to do anything else. But you already resigned yourself in life and said, well, I'm happy.
I'm not starving like the people in Calcutta. If you're a podcast junkie like I am, you've
probably thought about starting your own. Well, I can tell you firsthand that starting a podcast

Buzzsprout, the easiest way to start a podcast.
Are you allowing yourself to get off the hook like that? Or do you believe somewhere in the
back of your mind or in your heart that there's some other great work for you to do? There's
something else that life has for you. And that's why you're here. How do we handle this fear factor?
How do we increase our self esteem?
You have to begin to fortify yourself.
How do we do that?
I believe that you have to begin to consciously
monitor your inner conversation
and start talking to yourself.
Start building yourself up.
Sometimes the only good things you will hear about you are the things that you say to you so I'm saying learn to be
your own booster start building yourself up start encouraging yourself start
saying I can do this I can make this happen it's a natural inclination for us
to put ourselves down see we have born negative I think are born negative, I think, in a negative consciousness
because we live in a negative world.
So I'm saying that we have to work
through the challenges of life
in learning how to begin to work
to fortify ourselves.
Begin to guard your mind
against negative programming.
Like, turn off the television.
So you've got to guard the kinds of things
that you put in your mind.
See, if you don't program your mind, your mind will be programmed because human beings are goal oriented that's why we die
of broken hearts early that's why we're running through life to early grave most of us go through
life running scared so we created this in our minds false evidence appearing real we made it real in our minds there's nothing to
fear but fear itself that's the destructive monster so turn off things
that can contribute to your fear turn a deaf ear to people that all they can do
is talk about how negative things are because they have bought into the
consciousness of the world.
Listen to things that can empower you, that can enable you to create a new reality for yourself
in a new life for yourself. What idea are you sitting on? Write your ideas down.
And then once you get that idea, take the leap. See, a lot of people get the ideas and just walk around with him take the lead since
out here in the universe if you don't take the plunge I guarantee you somebody else will take
the plunge go into action and ladies and gentlemen you will be surprised how things will come together
you'll be surprised now you're gonna have some difficult challenges I could tell you that now be aware of that things are not going to
work out exactly right for time they will sometimes and that's when life is
just playing the game with you but ladies and gentlemen go into action
with your dream and don't avoid where the fights are. Get in the midst of the fight. And get some hickeys on your head.
Get knocked down so you can learn how to fight so you can hold your position.
See, most people don't get out in the arena of life because they don't want to fight.
Most people don't get out there because they don't want to get knocked down.
They don't want to be dropped to their knees.
But see, you're going to be dropped whether you're on
the field or whether or not you're sitting on the sidelines you're going to
be dropped so at least get dropped for something don't get knocked down while
you're sitting down see that's how most people are spectators in life you don't
want to be a spectator you want to get out in the field where the action is and
you will be amazed after the struggle.
There will be a calm period and things will begin to click for you.
Come out here with what you got.
You don't have enough money? Don't worry about it.
You got the dream.
You got the idea.
You don't have enough resources? Don't worry about it.
You need some help? Don't worry about it.
