For today's episode of Motivation Daily by Motivority Podcast, we are sharing a recent episode from the Morning Motivation Podcasts. If you like it, go follow the show. New episodes are being released every week. The link is in the description. The thing about self-discipline is that it is necessary for everything you do in your life. You have to be self-disciplined.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Working out, working out, you've got to work out every day. You've got to stay in shape. If you want to, I mean, if you don't stay in shape, you die. When I'm working out, I always do one extra rep, extra set because it's a promise I kept to myself but but working out might not be a priority for every single day because you've got things going on in your business world and with your family and all that so guess what it's a priority for my life so I do it in the morning before my day even starts if you change your
Starting point is 00:01:23 mindset and really focus it on what discipline really is you start to welcome discipline you welcome self-discipline into your life and here's the biggest thing. It's a pattern. It's a pattern I keep of me. I always do a little extra. I always go the extra inch. And the quickest and easiest place to do it is the gym. Because I can always grab one more weight, one more set. And here's what it does. It shifts your identity. The benefit of discipline in my eyes has always been that through discipline, I get things done. I do it in the morning before my day even starts. So I can still handle the priorities for the day, but I got my work out done so long term I look up in a year and I'm not out of shape and breathing hard
Starting point is 00:02:07 when I go up in the stairs because I maintain that discipline on a daily basis. Most people go through life never discovering what their talents are. Most people never develop their talents. You need to tell you no more snacks, no more desserts, no more TV, no more, no more we're working out now. Have skills and abilities but if you don't nurture them, if you don't develop them, they will never serve you. Your gifts can take you many places if you develop your gifts. The best gifts come from the bottom. I value myself enough to give 120% or don't do it. And that if you decide that my life deserves my developing this one I do well. Why are you only giving 50%? What's wrong with you? I grant you that if you begin to work to develop your gifts, you develop a strong sense. happiness. You'll get a larger vision of yourself because part of beginning to get a larger vision of yourself, all of us need some area of our lives where we can have a feeling of competence.
Starting point is 00:03:15 When other folk are having a good time, you've got to have the strength of character. You need to tell you that you owe you something. As you begin to develop and expand your skills and your talents and your vision of yourself, you will always be in control of your destiny. I want freedom and for me discipline in myself means more freedom. It's so easy to be great nowadays because everybody else is most people are weak. This is a softened generation so if you have any mental toughness, any ability, if you have any fraction of self-discipline, the ability to not want to do it but still do it. People have a hard thing to understand.
Starting point is 00:04:10 understand. I hate to run. And what makes me so crazy, it doesn't need more. People go, well, why do you run if you hate it? What are you talking about? I don't want to take showers and eat either. I hate that too. That's a life, man. And it wasn't until I changed that mentality that I became somebody. I hate it going to school. So guess what? I was dumb. But if you can get through to doing things that you hate to do on the other side is greatness. That's what people understand. By me running, I am callous in my mind. I'm not training for a race. I'm training for life. I'm training for the time when I get that two o'clock in the morning call that my mom is dead or something happens tragic in life. I don't fall apart. I'm training my mind and my body, my spirit, so it's all one so I can
Starting point is 00:05:06 handle what life is going to throw at me. Because the life I've lived, It throws a whole bunch at you. And if you're not physically and mentally prepared for that, you're just going to crumble and you're good for nobody. 99% of people are not willing to do what it takes to make their dreams come true. The Marines have a saying, everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die.
Starting point is 00:05:37 The center of bringing any dream into fruition is self-discipline. You know, something as simple as food and eating, it's not about your body as much as it is about your mind. It's getting command of your mind to be able to choose actions that are in your own best interest. Every day, we are choosing shit that's not in our own best interest. So if the world is attacking you and the world wants to fight you and the world's trying to hold you down, So you're going to kick yourself in the balls? So you're going to stop yourself from getting what you dream. And I think the word discipline has kind of gotten a bad name.
Starting point is 00:06:24 We think about it in terms of punishment. I'm not talking about discipline in that way. I'm talking about discipline in the sense that you forego immediate pleasure for the exchange of long-term. self-respect. I believe that self-discipline is the definition of self-love. That when you say that you love yourself, that means that you have behavior towards yourself that is loving. Self-discipline is the center of all material success. You cannot win the war against the world. the world if you can't win the war against your own mind. Self-love is when you say to yourself,
Starting point is 00:07:24 man, look, I know you and that girl got a real connection. I know y'all vibe, but that's your girl's cousin. So I love you too much to let you do that. It's like you say to yourself, hey, man, look, I know you want to eat that pizza and it'll be really good, you know, but I can't let you eat that, man, because if you eat that pizza, you're going to feel like, you know, and I just, I love you too much to let you eat that. Self-love is, hey, look, I know you got a test on Monday, you know, and I know you really want to go out with your friends, a Saturday night you want to go out, but if you feel that test, you're not going to feel good about yourself, you know, I just, I love you too much.
Starting point is 00:08:15 to let you go out tonight. Self-discipline is self-love. If you want to be happy, you have to love yourself, which means you have to discipline your behavior. The road to sustained happiness is through disciplining your behavior. We tend to base our self-esteem on what other people think And that's not really self-esteem. Self-esteem is supposed to be how we feel about ourselves.
Starting point is 00:08:53 And I was just saying how dangerous it is to allow other people to determine how you're going to feel about you. And it's kind of like looking into a broken mirror. You're going to look in a broken mirror and then change your face to try to look good in this defiled bustling. broken mirror and it just other people's opinions is a really way to determine how we feel about ourselves I was weighing like 297 pounds and I had to make a change in my life you know I was at all-time low and I wasn't going anywhere and I was exactly what everybody said I was gonna be which was nothing this man is a self-made beast widely
Starting point is 00:09:58 considered to be the toughest man on the planet and one of the greatest endurance athletes of all time. I was just an insecure, scared kid. And the only way I could find myself was to put myself through the worst thing possible. He's the only member of the US Armed Forces to complete SEAL training, the US Army Ranger School, and the Air Force Tactical Air Controller Training. completed the infamous destroyer of men known as Hell Week three times, including two in a single year and one that he started and finished with multiple stress fractures and a hernia.
Starting point is 00:10:40 No one was here to help me. And the feeling I had every morning, I started to save my head when I was 16 years old. And the feeling I had every morning I looked in the mirror was horrible. And I didn't want to feel like that anymore. And how I felt was a kid going nowhere, a kid that was scared. And most kids will accept that and look for help. But the best thing that happened to me, no one helped me. He served in combat in Iraq, was the bodyguard for the Iraqi Prime Minister.
Starting point is 00:11:08 He once held the Guinness World Record for most pull-ups in 24 hours at 4,030. No one felt sorry for me. No one looked at me and said, like, this day and age, they'll take you in and they'll tell you by, stop picking on this person. Back then, they didn't care. I had to build calluses in my brain the same way I built calluses on my hands. So I broke the Ginsburg of the Roy's record for pull-ups a long time ago, but I felt at it twice. And I did 67,000 pull-ups in trying to break this record.
Starting point is 00:11:40 So to do 4,030 pull-ups, I had to do 67,000 for training for that. He's run eight, eight consecutive 100-mile races over eight back-to-back weekends. He ran over 7,000 miles in a single year, and that is the equivalent of running 267 marathons. I saw myself as the weakest person God ever created. He had to have a goal. My goal was the only person that's going to turn this person around is me. The only way I can turn around is put myself through the worst things possible a human being can ever endure. And that would be the only way that I can build this brain.
Starting point is 00:12:23 to handle anything that comes in front of it, callous in my mind through pain and suffering. The only way you're ever going to get to the other side of this journey is you have got to suffer, to grow, to grow you must suffer. I'm afraid of my shadow. How can I overcome that? Go in the military, get your kicked, do things you hate to do. Be uncomfortable every day of your life. Roger that.
Starting point is 00:12:59 I'm not the smartest kid in the world. Okay. Instead of somebody saying, oh, no, you're smart. No, no, don't say that to yourself. I said to myself, no, I'm a dumb motherfucker. Okay, Roger that. How do you get smarter? Educate yourself.
Starting point is 00:13:13 So the things that we run from, we run it from the truth. We're running from the truth, man. So the only way I became successful was going towards the truth. As painful and as brutal as it is, it changed me. It allowed me to become, in my own right, who I am today. If you can for the rest of your life, live inside of yourself. Stop listening to people who are calling you fat, gay, transsexual, everything that is makes no sense. All these insecure people putting their insecurities on you, you got to flush it out.
Starting point is 00:13:52 You got to just be whoever the hell God or whatever the hell you believe in. If you believe in nothing but yourself, I don't care what it is. You got to take everything and throw it away. You have to believe in one thing and that is yourself. Around 97% of students are distracted by cell phones. Are you a part of that 97%? When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you'll be successful. Whether your distractions are text messages, checking emails, surfing the web, playing games,
Starting point is 00:14:41 or scrolling through social media, the fact remains that it is a distraction. I'm saying to you today that there are some of you, if you give up your cell phone, you would be successful. But your cell phone is more important to you than your success. Stop wasting time on your cell phone. Facebook isn't going anywhere. Instagram will still be here this weekend. Focus on your dreams. Focus on your studies.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Focus on your goals and aspirations. Put the thing down. Look up. You're missing stuff. What is the long-term effect of too much information? We don't know, but we're finding out. Focus on becoming a better you. A better you that is not distracted by unnecessary things.
Starting point is 00:15:40 You got to cut off the cell phone. You got it, no TV. There were those of you were watching the game last night. We really didn't have no business watching these boys when a national title, going to the NBA, make a million. You didn't have no business watching them, because you're not where you need to be. One that is determined to succeed and not scroll,
Starting point is 00:16:01 that is determined to prosper and not post, to grow all day and not gain all day. Stop wasting time on your cell phone. And when you get to the point where all you want to do is be successful, as bad as you want to breathe, then you'll be successful. It's about you and your future. It's about your grades. It's about your dreams.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Ultimately, it's about your life. The time you spend on your cell phone could be used for your success. The time you could be using to be used. successful you're using it on the cell and the cell phone is not bringing you nothing but a bill is your life more important than that app than that game that post I need cell phones off listen to me some of you're gonna be broke for the rest of your life because of that little thing on the side you're gonna be broke for the rest of your life because of a little cell phone we're so plugged into
Starting point is 00:17:04 our cell phones that we become blind to the world around us and some of Somebody has told you, you couldn't live without it. We can't take our eyes off the screen long enough to see the beauty of the world around us. It don't matter whose fault it is that something is broken if it's your responsibility to fix it. For example, it's not somebody's fault if their father was an abusive alcoholic, but it's for damn sure their responsibility to figure out how they're going to deal with those traumas and try to make a life out of it. It's not your fault if your partner cheated and ruined your marriage, but it is for damn sure your responsibility to figure out how to take that pain and how to overcome that and build a happy life for yourself. Fault and responsibility do not go together.
Starting point is 00:18:02 It sucks, but they don't. When something is somebody's fault, we want them to suffer, we want them punish, we want them to pay, and we want it to be their responsibility. to fix it, but that's not how it works, especially when it's your heart. Your heart, your life, your happiness is your responsibility and your responsibility alone. As long as we're pointing a finger and stuck in whose fault something is, we're jammed and trapped into victim mode. When you're in victim mode, you are stuck in suffering. The road to power. Power is in taking responsibility. Your heart, your life, your happiness is your responsibility and your responsibility alone.
Starting point is 00:18:54 You can make a person smile, you can make a person feel good, you can make a person laugh. But whether or not a person is happy is deeply and totally and utterly out of your control. The prerequisite for spending time with any person. is that they nourish and inspire you. They feed your flame. Look at your last five text messages. Are those people feeding your flames or dousing your fire? Put your phone down for just a second and look around.
Starting point is 00:19:31 Look to the people around you. Are those people throwing logs on your fire or are they pissing on it? I want my life. I want my work, my, my, my family. I wanted to mean something and it's like it has if you are not making someone else's life better then you're wasting your time the separation of talent and skill is one of the the greatest misunderstood concepts for people who are trying to excel who have dreams that want to do things talent you have naturally skill is only developed by hours and hours and hours of beaten on your craft
Starting point is 00:20:23 You don't try to build a wall. You don't set out to build a wall. You don't say, I'm going to build the biggest, baddest, greatest wall that's ever been built. You don't start there. You say, I'm going to lay this brick as perfectly as a brick can be laid. There will not be one brick on the face of the earth that's going to be laid better than this brick that I'm going to lay in this next 10 minutes. And you do that every single day. And soon you have a wall.
Starting point is 00:20:51 And soon you have a wall. And I think psychologically, the advantage that that gives me over a lot of people that I have been in competition with in different situations is it's difficult to take the first step when you look how big the task is. The definition of who I am is very clear to me, and it also redefines who I want to be in that I know for a fact that, I know for a fact that, that I'm stronger than I thought I was. You can't help but ask yourself the question, what would I do if I was in Muhammad Ali's shoes? I'm motivated by fear. I hate being scared to do something.
Starting point is 00:21:53 And I think what developed in my early days was the attitude that I started attacking things. that I was scared out. Why were you scared in your bed the night before? Why did you, what do you need that fear for? Just don't go! Why are you scared in your bed 16 hours before you jump? Why are you scared in the car?
Starting point is 00:22:18 Why could you not enjoy breakfast? Fear is... fear of what? You're nowhere even near the airplane. Everything's up to the stepping out. There's actually no reason. no reason to be scared. It only just ruins your day. You don't have to jump. And then in that moment, all of a sudden where you should be terrified is the most blissful experience of your life. And God placed the best things in life on the other side of terror. And they had the nerve to
Starting point is 00:22:57 count you out. That's because they didn't understand that your motivation would never let you stay down for the count. It's times like these that we separate the real from the fake. And when it's like you can take a punch and bounce right back because you understand and know exactly what's at stake.
Starting point is 00:23:16 It's times like these that we separate the real from the fake. And when it's like you can take a punch, bounce right back because you understand and know exactly what's at stake. It's money time, baby. And this is for all of the marbles. It's put up or shut up.
Starting point is 00:23:32 survive in advance, win or go home. And that's why you spend all those hours grinding. That's why you spend all those hours pushing yourself to the limit. You spend all those hours running. That's why you spend all those hours sacrificing. You spend all those hours sweating because you know there would be no time for regretting, fretting, or letting yourself or your teammates down. See, you are bound and determined to enter into the realm of greatness
Starting point is 00:23:56 that's reserved for you and only you. And so if the day ever comes that you're tired enough to be, quit, then I need you to act like a car with four flats and retire. I don't think you hurt me. I said, if the day ever comes that you are tired enough to quit, then I need you to act like a call with four flats and retire. Next level success is reserved for those that are willing to not start counting the reps until it starts hurting, not start counting the shots made until their arms are dead tired,
Starting point is 00:24:27 not start counting the sprits until they're already breathing hard. I heard a wise man say it hurts, but it works. I say when it hurts, then and only then will you start receiving the perks, the accolades, the adder boys, the adder girls, the great jobs, the alley-up lives, the celebration parties with the lobster and shiskebabs, the hoisting of the banners, the sizing for the reams, the smiles, the hugs, and all of the love and respect in between. See, some of you out there, you're in the dark. And you know what I need you to do for me when you're in the dark? Like someone I'm talking to you, because I don't think you heard me. I said next level success is reserved for those that are willing to not start counting the reps until it starts hurting. Not start counting the shots made until their arms are dead tired.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Not start counting the sprints until they're already breathing hard. So just when they think you're about to throw in the time, that's when I need you to recall all of the days that you went that extra mile. All of them days that your friends said you were filed when you said you couldn't hang out because you were dialed in. You were locked in, you were in a zone, so you had to be strong because you knew the day would come when you would have to show the world that you could overcome any adversity, any obstacles, any hardships, any setbacks because you were prepared for any and everything. You understood that it would be impossible to run with them cheetahs when you're walking with the turtles. You understood that it would be impossible for you to run with the cheetahs when you were walking with the turtles. So your mindset is that of a track star, and that gives you the middle strength to leap over life's hurdles, to power through the speed bumps, to push through the roadblocks, and continue to grind
Starting point is 00:26:14 past any and every obstruction that attempts to deter you from your ultimate goal of next level success. So the stresses of the world, you laughing. The dreams they say are out of your reach, you grab it. The things they say you can't achieve, you take a stab it. And when the bullies of life try to knock you out, you stick and move and you jab at them. I said, the stresses of the world, you laugh at them. The dreams they say are out of your reach, you go and grab at them.
Starting point is 00:26:45 The things they say you can't achieve, you take a stab at them. And when the bullies of life try to knock you out, you stick and move and you jab at them. And on a rare occasion that you take a punch from life, and it knocks you down. You dig deep, and then you dig deeper, and then you dig even deep. deeper because you understand that this is the moment to pick yourself up, push through with determination and grit because of all your resiliency, commitment, hard work, perseverance. You have now put yourself in position to show the world that you got that dog and your inner dog has no quit.
Starting point is 00:27:30 I said, this is the moment to pick yourself up and push through with you. determination and grit because of all your resiliency, commitment, hard work, perseverance, you have put yourself in a position to show the world that you got that dog. And your inner dog has no quit. I hated jumping out of airplanes. I hated shooting guns. I hated the job as a Navy seal. But I did it because I wanted to change myself.
Starting point is 00:28:07 Everything I do, I'm not really comfortable doing. But if you choose to go that route, to go be a Navy SEAL, you might as well go be the hardest mother in the world. Because if you're choosing to do something, you have two routes. You can go there and be a little weak person and get through barely, and that's your reputation. Or you can go through the hardest guy you can possibly be in that your reputation. So my whole thing is if you're going to choose to open that door in Iraq or I've
Starting point is 00:28:37 understand open the mother going to hard because they're going to remember you by slowly opening it and peeking in so if you're going to open it and you made the mind to open it don't crack it open open door go in that's what life if you're choosing to do if you choose to do something attack it because they're going to remember you as not attacking it so i want to be remembered you can't hate me there's one thing you can't say about me I didn't attack it. So that's the mentality you have. If you're going to do something, you might well attack it because you can do it anyway. Right. Who on this earth would still be going right now? You are.
