And I started asking the question, how far can I go? And everything changed that day. For people that don't understand the fixed mindset versus the growth mindset, how would you just summarize it right here? So a fixed mindset is somebody who believes that their talent and intelligence are fixed traits set at birth. Somebody with a growth
Starting point is 00:00:58 mindset believes that their talent and intelligence are malleable traits that will change with disciplined practice. And once you go from the fix to the growth, then all of a sudden everything changes because you realize I'm not good at that yet. And just by putting that appending word on there, you realize, okay, so if I wanted to put energy into that, I could get extraordinary. See, in the real world, nothing comes easy. You have to put in the effort. You have to put in the blood, sweat, tears. If it doesn't hurt a little bit, if it doesn't sting a little bit, if it doesn't make you a little uncomfortable, you probably won't get very much out of it. People see the 30%. They don't see the 70% of not making it or not getting what you want.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Your outcomes in life are often a lagging measure of your habits. We think the thing that needs to change is the bank account or the test score or the number on the scale, but actually the thing that needs to change are the habits that precede those outcomes. But I change from a goal mindset to a growth mindset. I switch my mind to something else. I switched my mode into something else.
Starting point is 00:02:10 For me, it's the equivalent of Maximus, Desmus, Meridius, and Gladiator picking up the dirt, smelling the dirt. It's go time. You got to put yourself in that cage. When you're in that cage when you're in that cage you are that character so everything i saw whether it was tv shows whether it was books i read people i talked to everything was done to try to learn how to become better everything everything and so when you have that point of view then literally the world becomes your library to help you to become better at your craft you're either moving forward or standing still the choice is yours decide
Starting point is 00:02:53 in life you have two situations you are either born with too much because your parents are rich and they got you, or you're born with too little. And both are strengths and weaknesses. Your mindset decides it. Welcome to Daily Motivation, where you get motivated and inspired. My freshman year, I don't play a lick.
Starting point is 00:03:39 And before I knew it, I lost my mindset again. I began to recalibrate. You know, everybody done played in NBA. I'll graduate in four years. You know know what I just go get a good job it's okay it's okay and the end of my freshman year my daddy called me on the phone he asked me questions
Starting point is 00:03:52 he said son you're not playing why not politics dad it's political my father asked me a question he says how did your coach get paid son I said dad he gets paid to win he says ok son if your coach gets paid to win won't he play the players that give him the best chance to win
Starting point is 00:04:10 he says son you got recruited you took all your visits you chose Minnesota you took your time you chose Minnesota you told me that you were going to turn that program around you told me you were going to graduate in four years you told me you're going to graduate in four years you told me you're going to make more money in business than you did in sports
Starting point is 00:04:28 one of the core values of our training and development called family was accountability that was the core value of that training and development organization called the bond family accountability he said so go back and do what you said you're going to do. My father reminded me of what I said I was going to do.
Starting point is 00:04:52 I went back to my coach's office. I said, coach, what do I need to do to play in the NBA? He looked confused. This is what I told him. I'm going to become somebody different. What do I need to do to play in the NBA? I'm taking this thing to the next level. We're about to rise up.
Starting point is 00:05:12 So for you to be passionate, your logic and your emotions need to be intertwined. See, some of you guys have the intellect and some of you guys have the passion, but you have to have both to be successful in this business. Sharks are hunters and predators. They never stop swimming. In fact, if a shark stops swimming, it will die. If a shark goes backwards, it will die. Think like a shark, act like a shark, and behave like a shark. Can I ask you a question right now? Can I ask you a real question? Not your neighbor, I'm talking to you. What kind of student are you right now in life? You're in charge of your promotion. If you do five million and want to get to 10, you're in charge. In order for you to rise up, you better take
Starting point is 00:05:53 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. Take your money and get information and access and you will get good habits and good rituals and you will go to the next level. Coach, what do I need to do to play in the NBA? He said, you can't run, you can't jump, you can't dribble, you can't shoot, and you can't rebound, son. Next year, I'll be your most improved player. I'm going to think, I'm going to execute, and I'm going to win. I'm going to think, I'm going to execute, and I'm going to win. I'm going to think, I'm going to execute, and I'm going to win. I'm going to execute what I've been trained to do.
Starting point is 00:06:31 I want you to tell us what those lowest moments of childhood felt like in one word. Temporary. Absolutely temporary. There was just no way I was going to let that person beat me again. absolutely temporary. There was just no way I was going to let that person beat me again. And there was just no way I was going to stay comfortable in this negative place. Just a matter of time.
Starting point is 00:06:55 Some things are just destiny. You know? Look, everybody goes through a moment in their life where everything you thought up to that second vanishes and you realize that there's an opportunity to change the story that you've written in your head for the last two, three decades. And I think it's universal. I think there are very few people who don't get to a point at year 20, 30, 35 that don't start debating, wait a minute, is this what I want? Is this where I'm going? Is this how it's playing out? And to me, that is one of the most important moments in one's life.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Many people look at it as a moment to start to get upset and say, wait a minute, this is not what I signed up for. And others, regardless of what's happened, use it as an opportunity to write the next chapter. You know, I think anybody who's listening right now, if you want to set yourself up for success, ask yourself how much risk you've taken
Starting point is 00:08:07 in the first 10, 15, 20, 30, 40 years of your life. When I started talking about business on Twitter, every single comment in 2009 was, shut your mouth, wine boy, stay in your lane. I'm telling you right now, you want to talk about why so many of you aren't exactly where you want to be? Look deep inside yourself
Starting point is 00:08:28 on what your expectations of others are. Ask yourself how much you've been succumbing to peer pressure. Like if you've always wanted to be cool to the popular kids in your high school, you're in trouble. The amount of people in here that have a job they hate and they buy things they don't care about to impress people they don't give a about
Starting point is 00:08:48 scares the out of me. Most people spend money on dumb things which then forces them to do things they don't want. Long before I became the wine guy on YouTube and Twitter, I was a businessman and I think if it's your truth, there's a very big difference between being an entrepreneur and a successful entrepreneur.
Starting point is 00:09:09 I can say that I'm a football player. Doesn't mean I'm gonna get paid to do it. And so I think the truth, I think it's unbelievably exciting for me. It feels warm in my heart that the thing that I've seen consistently analyzing this every second of my breathing day for the last decade, has been whatever your truth may be, as long as it is actually your truth, you will always over index. And people told me to not curse on stage.
Starting point is 00:09:35 You know, my agents would look like, stop cursing on stage because we're losing so much money. I'm like, I can't. I have to be me. And wherever the chips fall, and I think for everybody A. it's fun because it's easier and B. audiences audiences are smart to your point
Starting point is 00:09:51 you can smell when that person wants to put their agenda through and so I think the truth which is a very exciting answer to this question the truth is undefeated until this room redefines success into waking up in the morning is undefeated. Until this
Starting point is 00:10:06 room redefines success into waking up in the morning and being happy versus money, we will be in a bad place. Think about two core things in my opinion. One, you have to at all costs not beat your own self up
Starting point is 00:10:22 with yourself. At all costs. It's huge. You need to really be your own biggest fan instead of critiquing everything. Number two, moments in time. You've gotta wrap your head around how young you actually are. You have to wrap your head around
Starting point is 00:10:40 how early in the process this is and how this is just a very small moment in time. 400 trillion to one. I just want everybody to hear this. This is the reason I'm happy 24-7, 365 for the rest of my life. 400 trillion to one. The odds of becoming a human being.
Starting point is 00:10:59 You might not like the human being situation you ended up in, but let me tell you this. Your mom might have grabbed another glass of wine and you never would have been. I mean, 400 trillion to one. I've never seen anything that scares me as much as sitting with somebody in their 80s or 90s who spends all their time talking to me
Starting point is 00:11:21 about not what they did, but what they wish they did. And in that, there's something that I think could really work here and here's what I mean by that. I believe that if everybody in this room had a better relationship with understanding time, they could be much happier. I feel like people are grossly impatient.
Starting point is 00:11:41 I don't think that people that are 55 years old realize they have 20 more years of executing in a world where they grew up as kids and 55 seems so old and people are dying at a different age and retiring at a different age. I think if you actually saw regret
Starting point is 00:11:56 up close and personal for one day, that a lot of the things that you're not doing, that it could scare you into doing it. I live a life already where people email me on a tactical level the regret that they wish they listened to me around this, that, or the other thing
Starting point is 00:12:16 three or four or five years ago. Things that we can't control, we can't plan for, but they come anyway. This can be in relationships, the workplace, the family. It takes us down when things start to go to chaos. And all you want to do is win. See, I witnessed so many times in my life, and it may be someone out there that understands life. Understands that pain is necessary, understand that unexpected obstacles stop them. You got to dig down deep today.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Even when you're crying, even when that girlfriend or boyfriend is walking out of your life, I need you to be prepared. Because sometimes when terrible things happen to us, we go into this dark shell and we stay there and we believe that this darkness will be our home forever. But you got to understand that every pain is a lesson. Every lesson that you learn in the process of life is turning you into something. It's turning you into something phenomenal. See, dreams, aspirations, they're not easily obtained.
Starting point is 00:14:03 You're going to have to walk through those storms with no umbrella but know and trust in God that you will not get wet yes life is painful in it we lose some of the greatest things we ever had. But one of the hardest things to do is to keep going. Is to keep chasing. See, sometimes when people leave, we believe that that's our entire life. We believe that that is our existence. But we are more. Because like my grandfather used to tell me
Starting point is 00:14:46 We're the dreams that never lived down there What now is dedication Relentless effort to achieve your dreams Putting a plan together Not just jumping into the water With no life there Putting a strategic plan together To be greater than you were yesterday.
Starting point is 00:15:07 To be greater than anything anybody could ever imagine. See, just think about dreams. We believe that it's up to other people to believe in. And the truth is, the only person that needs to believe in you is you. In order for you to meet greatness, you have to first align or position yourself to get greatness.
Starting point is 00:15:40 It doesn't matter how successful you think you are. If you don't get where you need to be, you'll never meet greatness. So there are a few things that I would consider extremely important when it comes to positioning yourself for greatness. You have the ability to control your actions. You have the ability to make things happen. I heard someone once say. That whether you believe you can or you can't. You're right. Have you ever tried to catch a pop fly.
Starting point is 00:16:18 While playing baseball. The only way that you are able to catch the ball. Is to first align or position yourself to catch the ball. If you aren't in the position to catch the ball, I don't care how nice you look in your uniform. I don't care how many fans have come to watch you play. If you don't align yourself or position yourself, you will never catch the ball. In order for you to position yourself for greatness, you have to develop mental toughness.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Some people might call it having thick skin. One of the first things you must do to position yourself for greatness is what is called attraction and action. The core of attraction is defined like this. Wherever you tend to place your thoughts, your feelings, your energy and intention typically defines what you create in your life. All I'm saying to you is that with some action, you can get the things you're attracted to.
Starting point is 00:17:37 You want those good grades? You have to work hard to get them. You want that large bank account? You have to work hard to get it. You have to work hard to get them. You want that large bank account? You have to work hard to get it. You have to work hard to get it. It's all about positioning yourself for greatness. One of the best ways to do this is by having a vision that is supported with intention. In other words,
Starting point is 00:18:07 believe that you can achieve something and then actually go out and achieve it. Too many people have dreams of being a billionaire but have a $100 mind. If you're going to dream that big, you have to have the hustle and the grind that matches. Big dreams, big hustle. They go together and can't be separated.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Learn to trust yourself and give yourself permission to try the very things that you dream of. Stop waiting for the world to validate your thoughts and your goals.

Starting point is 00:19:59 But sooner or later, there comes a time when you must act. One of the worst phrases we've ever created was, you've got to see it to believe it. It's a phrase created by cynical people with small minds that have not got any hope that things can get better. Can you imagine what the world would be like if everyone believed that this was true? We'd have no cars, no planes, no no light in the dark we'd never have computers or mobile phones we'd never climb mountains break records or go to the moon i used to believe this
Starting point is 00:20:34 rubbish nothing can be achieved conceived until first it's believed you have to believe it to see it if there's something that you want to do with your life, that thing deep inside you that whispers day and night, it will always, always just be an idea until you choose to believe it's possible. You have to believe it so much that you already think it's happened. You have to walk like it's there, talk like it's there, believe it's there. Dreams without action, that's the path to delusion. Without action, these dreams and goals will fill your life with a load of negative emotions, things like anxiousness, nervousness. They will fester inside you and drain your energy. The reason most people don't take action is simple. It's fear. Fear of failure, fear of success.
Starting point is 00:21:28 And the only way to overcome this and to stop making excuses why you shouldn't act is to make not taking action more painful than taking action. People sit around and they focus on all the bad shit that might happen to them if they try to act, that they completely forget about what will happen if they don't. So think about it right now. Let's think of some things that might happen if you try to do the thing that you've been wanting to do for years. Okay, well, it might not work the first time. It might not be as easy as you thought.
Starting point is 00:22:06 People are going to think you're mad. They're going to look at you and think you're insane. They're going to tell you shit like, it ain't possible. It's risky. You shouldn't do it. Be careful. Stick to what you know. Stick to what you do.
Starting point is 00:22:19 F*** that. Follow your dreams. These people have to see shit to believe it. But you need to believe it to see it. Amazing things happen when you believe you have something. Your brain actively goes out to make it happen. It starts to notice little subtle opportunities that you would have otherwise deleted because it knows it's got a job to do to get you what you want. But if you keep taking action in spite of all this stuff that might happen, guess what?
Starting point is 00:22:46 Sooner or later, you're going to start winning. Remember, there ain't no such thing as failure, baby. Only feedback. You know, it's funny. It's really hard to ask a giraffe to be a peng winner or vice versa. And so one thing that's become much more obvious to me as I've gotten older is like, wow, DNA is powerful. Like I'm so comfortable with no and losing and fear,
Starting point is 00:23:15 but I'm so empathetic to people that aren't. I, and this will surprise a lot of you that maybe follow me, I'm unbelievably comfortable with aggressiveness and candor and binary talk on stage, but one-on-one, I've really struggled over the last 25 years as an executive with radical candor and shooting it straight
Starting point is 00:23:38 because I'm so optimistic and I'm always trying to fix it. And so that's taken me a lot of work. And through that work, I'm like okay you know there's the things that come natural and the things that aren't if you grew up in a framework with parents or customs that really desperately overvalue outside affirmation the opinions of your parents's parents or siblings because you come from uh let's call it what it is, an immigrant background where there's a huge commonality there.
Starting point is 00:24:10 School. You were so deeply bought into school that the short-term affirmation of every 90 days with grades and report cards made you comfortable. It's very hard to then go into, hey, this is what you should learn from entrepreneur land. Don't worry about it. It's all gonna be fine. That's very hard to then go into hey, this is what you should learn from entrepreneur land. Don't worry about it. It's all going to be fine. That's very hard. You've fully
Starting point is 00:24:29 built yourself as an animal to completely value outside judgment that is not based on the market but based on another human being. That's what I'd like people to learn, which is like, hey, what are we doing here? You've won the 400 trillion to
Starting point is 00:24:45 one lottery of being a human being. Do you really want to live with regret? Do you not understand that the internet is the greatest optionality in the history of mankind that our grandparents and everybody behind them had nowhere close to the options you sit with today? And really, what are you valuing that's making
Starting point is 00:25:02 you conform into doing something that doesn't make you happy? Your current overhead? So sell your home and rent. That sounds crazy. You know, when I started talking about like, hey, in the pursuit of happiness, would you consider selling your home and renting? I mean, I got destroyed in the comments sections
Starting point is 00:25:21 and a lot of the people are like, like that I'm some horrible person. I'm like, how is living your life to pay the bills that you've created for yourself? That's all humans, all that humans do are create their own jails and then live within it. That's all we do. So knowing that that's very hard in a human way,
Starting point is 00:25:41 the situation you have with your parents, all that stuff, the professional one feels like I have a prayer of communicating that and letting people, and here's my point. If you want to be a professional skier or if you want to start a blog or podcast around cooking, my big thing is if you jump and start swimming, you know, this is riding a bike,
Starting point is 00:26:02 kissing a boy or girl or, you know, swimming. This is, it seems super scary until you do it. And then you just laugh about why it felt so scary. Like if you go do that thing and live more humble, live with judgment, you could always get a job again. Like, I don't know. Like I just, my great fear is regret. Because it is the obvious thing I see in people that are 80 to 100 years old that seems super scary. Nobody was thrilled that they played it safe. It just, you don't see it. And I think people should spend more time
Starting point is 00:26:36 with 80 to 100 year olds that aren't their grandparents. I mean it. I mean it. I think people need context on life a little bit. I think people have a horrible relationship with time. Do you know how many people in this room are scared shitless of 30? Like it's some thing.
Starting point is 00:26:51 It means nothing. But our society has decided to tell you that you have to figure it out and marry and children. What are you talking about? 98% of the 59-year-olds I know don't have it figured out. The hell are we supposed to have it all figured out at 30?
Starting point is 00:27:06 25? Like, people are making terrible decisions. Getting married because they think they're supposed to by this age. You know, like, buying homes because they think they're supposed to. Like, the rules of modern society have led to, everybody wants to blame technology and drug companies for all our problems. We need to blame our norms,
Starting point is 00:27:34 our expectations, our ridiculous North Stars that make no sense. We're living, when I look at this young of a crowd, they're living to 110. There's an enormous amount of people in here that are going to live to 110 and are freaking out that they don't have it figured out by 30. You're not even a quarter of the way there yet.
