Hello listeners.
Motivosity is excited to share that we have launched a new podcast called Morning Motivation by Motivore.
If you are looking to start your day with positivity and the most uplifting motivational audio,
this is the show for you.
For today's episode of Motivation Daily by Motivority Podcast,
we are sharing a recent episode from the Morning Motivation Podcast.
If you like it, go follow the show.
New episodes are being released every week.
The link is in the description.
You win some, you lose some.
But you live.
You live to fight another day.
It doesn't matter how hard you work.
I'm willing to work harder than you.
No one will outwork me.
No one.
Be the guy who embraces hard work, the grind.
Don't be afraid of being hurt.
Don't be afraid of a sacrifice to some blood.
Some of us don't make excuses.
Some of us don't surrender.
Some of us don't give up and give it.
Go do something that's hard.
If you want it, you've got to go get it.
Most people don't want it that badly.
It's time to unwrap the potential you be.
Superior, man.
It's within you.
No one said it was supposed to be easy.
Some people want to.
It's not easy, but I dare you to go the hard way.
I know what that feels like to be left for dead.
I just believe in me and I'm going to overcome all my adversity.
They will not see you coming as you rise, as you work every single day, tirelessly.
In order to achieve greatness, you must first believe you can.
If you want to be good at something, you want to accomplish something.
you've got to put in the time.
So right now I need you to find the way to keep on living, my friend.
I need you to live. I need you to live. I need you to live. I need you to live. Do you hear me?
There's no excuse not to be the hardest one of the fucking worker in the room.
Life is going to be hard.
And you're going to fail, and you're going to fail, and you're going to fail, and you're going to fail, and you're going to fail.
You're going in again.
again. And this time, you're coming out with a win. If it's life-giving, if it's serving your
purpose, if it's going to transform you into something you never thought you could be, then do it
again. I'm thankful to see another day. No, things aren't what I want to be. No, I don't have
all the things I want to have. But I'm thankful that I'm still here. I have another opportunity,
another day to live, another chance to contribute, another chance to make a difference in life.
It is ridiculously impossible to become a human being. I am one. I have other good things going
for me as a human being, and I'm just grateful. You're dwelling and looking at what you don't have
versus looking at what you have. You are alive against stupendous thought. You are breathing air,
observing sunsets, gazing into the night sky.
Most people who could exist will never experience that.
I need to constantly remind myself,
I'm not yet where I want to be.
But I know I'll get there.
I'm not where I want to be, but I'm grateful.
I am so grateful that I'm not where I used to be.
I find ten things to be grateful for before my feet hit the ground.
10 things and they can't cost money.
And especially if I'm feeling strained in stress,
I go over my gratitude says,
because gratitude will reduce stress all day long.
Happiness only requires that you are grateful.
If you've got a billion dollars
and three beautiful children that love you
and a beautiful husband or wife,
but it doesn't matter what you have if you're not grateful.
If you live in an emotional home,
a habitual pace of worry or frustration,
your life's called worry and frustration.
Perspective.
And once you see gratitude and opportunity, life is fun.
You get to decide if you're going to dwell and play pre-vent defense,
or if you're going to see opportunity and be grateful and go on office.
I am not where I want to be, but I am so grateful.
I am not where I used to be.
If you didn't make me, you can't break me.
If you didn't make the sun come up, you can't stop me.
If you didn't make the moon shine at night, you can't stop me.
My purpose, my will, my dedication, my motivation is all about doing the business because
guess what, ladies and gentlemen, that's what I'm about.
I'm about that business.
I'm about that life.
You have to stay grateful.
You can't take things for granted.
We have so much abundance in the world, so much opportunity, and too many people are crying
about what they don't have instead of being so deeply grateful for what they have.
All you can, within your power and the power of others who love you,
to maximize what you can be, what you can think, what you can learn, how you can love, whatever it is.
That's what you've got.
Use it.
One question I asked you, can you do this thing alone?
I've trained 99% of my life alone.
No one pat me on the back.
I did all of the work alone.
Wolves don't lose sleep over the opinions of a lesser species.
Be alone, grow that dark space.
You may not want to fight that battle, but you need to.
A beast is someone who can go through hell and be grateful that their legs are working.
What are you?
Are you a sheep or you a war?
When you train alone, I can take myself to such a level of real, real passion and purpose.
Nobody's going to feed us.
You've got to feed yourself.
The feeling I get is something I can't even expect.
I don't need anyone.
It's on you.
You've got to want it as bad as you want to breathe.
Success starts with you.
It's all on you.
If you want to be strong, you've got to learn to fight alone.
Yes, you're tired.
Yes, your mind is saying give up.
Yes, it's saying quit.
But you cannot quit because you realize you have not reached the goal yet.
Day in and day out you've got to keep on working
And if you get knocked down
So what
And get up
Nobody's going to believe in you
Until you've already done it
Nobody's going to come and celebrate with you
Until you've already done it
Which means you're going to have to work for a long time
By yourself with no applause
With no awards
No one's going to believe in you in the beginning
Nor should that
Be okay with them
Have to do it alone
But get started
Go your day
Let me tell you something about self-doubt.
You have to conquer it.
If you let self-doubt rule your decisions, you'll never get anywhere.
If you don't believe in yourself, nobody will.
So be bold, be relentless, and never let anyone stand in your way.
This is my day to read a new book.
This is my day to start a journey.
This is my day to make an investment.
This is my day to invest in myself.
This is my day and this is my time and it's my turn.
This is the day.
I take it seriously. I got one window. I may not be here tomorrow.
The biggest regret of the dying is never becoming your ideal self.
You got to focus on conquering today. This is the moment, the moment of truth for you
to understand that within you, there are great possibilities. It all starts the moment you
you take responsibility and say to yourself,
nothing is going to shape my destiny but me.
You will go through things and while you're going through them,
you can't understand why it's happening to you.
But after you go through it, you get back and you look at it
and you say, oh, now I understand why I needed that lesson.
Then I saw that that was preparing me for bigger and better things.
You still have time.
Don't quit.
Don't give up. You still have time. You can do it. You can make it happen, but you can't do it procrastinate. You can't do it talking about it, right?
But there's a total different feeling when you accomplish stuff. You've got a different level of credibility for people. People see you different. People are willing to do things for you that they've never done before.
But people, you have credibility that you never have before. And so I encourage you. I encourage you. Follow through.
I got the trust that I am someone that somebody believes in.
You got to believe that you've got to stand on your faith.
You've got to stand on your strength.
You got to stand on who you are.
Take back control of your life.
Stop being a victim.
Stop letting life push you around and start fighting back.
Because the minute you tell yourself that you control this is the minute you can start to change it.
I made my last excuse yesterday.
My last reason. I came up with my last reason yesterday of why I can't you.
but why I can't do what I'm supposed to do.
This is your day.
You've got a window.
You've got another 24 hours.
Another opportunity to forgive somebody.
Another opportunity to let it go.
Another opportunity to look up and get up.
I'm just wondering when are you going to seize the opportunity.
You, you're worthy.
Life, my friends, it's a test of your grit.
your determination.
When things get tough,
and trust me, it will.
You got to remember one thing.
It's not how hard you hit.
It's how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.
You see, Rocky Boa, he said that
these words stuck with him
because life ain't just about the victories.
It's about the battles.
You fought to get there.
It's about the failures, the echo of the daughters that didn't have the perseverance to keep chasing the dreams that they wanted.
So they told you to stop chasing yours.
But we're not going to listen to the echoes of the doubters.
We're going to listen to our soul.
We're going to listen to the warrior that lives inside of us all that tells us it's not about our circumstances.
It's about our opportunities.
And not just about those opportunities, it's about season those opportunities.
Every chance you get.
Because ladies and gentlemen, I got to tell you that these opportunities are not going to come back around.
Do you have what it takes to make it through this journey?
I'm telling you, young king, keep fighting because your life depends on it.
Today we're going to reach for the dreams where they said we couldn't reach them.
It's your dog to rise.
I can feed it! What you have to offer!
Be the guy who embraces the ugly, the miserable.
Be the guy who embraces hard work, the grind.
Don't be afraid of being hurt.
Don't be afraid of a sacrifice to some blood.
It's the moments in life, the decisions you make on a moment-to-moment basis
that add up to be the guy or not the guy.
Tonight, I did something, you know, that I feel my mind.
more of a guy for me who I am my guy make the hard decisions make the sacrifices make the
unpopular decisions and become comfortable in your own skin and if you are not a person that you are
comfortable being alone with that is the one person in this universe that you have full power
full right full responsibility to change if you were to create a human what would you put them through
to make them tough. It probably wouldn't be a really chill life. What would you put them through to
make them patient? We probably wouldn't give them things immediately. And so it's like we want these
trades, but each of the traits has a price tag attached to it. It's just like, do you want to pay
the price tag to get the thing? And so I think if people reframe the period of life that they're going
through as the price that they're paying out of their wallet, but the wallet is their time,
it's the seconds of life that they're trading for it, then I think more people will be willing
to make the trade. Because at least when I look at myself, like when I'm 80-something years old,
I'm looking back when I love, I want to have these traits.
But in order to have those traits, I know I have to go through these things.
And I think for me, that's given me a lot of.
Right now in life, your family is looking for that one guy right now.
They're looking for that one guy who's strong.
Who's that pillar for the family in hard times?
Make sure they look around.
They look around and find you.
These are the times right now for you to step up.
Be that guy that can take anything.
Stay hard.
The biggest regret of the dying is never becoming
your ideal self.
I do believe that we're thrust in the world that we don't fit in.
And I believe the journey is that a lot of people sell your bill of goods along the way.
That if you get some awards, you mean something.
You go to a certain school, you're cute, classical beauty.
You got the right man, you got the right zip code,
and you swim through all that filthy swill.
until you come to the really, really stark conclusion
that I want to leave this earth
becoming who I know deep within.
I am supposed to be.
The next time you want to just give in to that desire for comfort,
remember that your future self is going to be the one
to suffer the consequences.
It's so easy to just put it off and act like it doesn't exist.
But that future self that you're passing all these burdens to,
will one day be yourself of the present and you'll wish you chose to do otherwise.
Everything that you do counts.
The biggest mistake that people make is they think that only what they want to count counts.
Read a book, when you listen to an audio program, when you go to a course,
when you go to bed early and get up early and you work, it all counts.
Never fucking apologize for being yourself.
If people don't like how you act, how you look, how you speak,
that just means those aren't your fucking people.
Don't change who you are to match your surroundings.
Pick better for you in surroundings and be yourself.
I don't know, most men would understand that.
When a man cries and he's whimpering, he's hurting.
You know, because I've been there.
And there's no shame in crying, gentlemen.
Men, it's okay to cry.
We can still be a man, but you're also human.
And it does show a little bit of your vulnerability.
Do it for your loved ones.
Do it for your wife.
Do it for your husband.
Do it for your children.
Do it for generations to come.
generations to come. Come on, after you're dead and gone, what will they say about what you did?
Yes, there's so many people depending on you, but it's got to start with you and the man upstairs.
If you want to be great, oh man, prepare to get up off that mat. You're going to get knocked down
over and over and over. And even when you feel like, no, nobody, I can't be hit this hard.
Or if you're down there thinking, it's no way I can get up from this.
That's when you're just starting.
For some strange reason, this world wants to see you water down the reality of who you are.
Our society wants to see you think like everyone else and feel just like those around you.
Maybe for somebody who's so distracted from their true desires as a person.
That doesn't sound so bad, but the pain of seeing through limitation in full absence of distractions is almost unbearable.
You see, it hurts because the resistance wants you to give in and mold to what's expected of you.
And if I can provide some advice, don't.
I don't know where you are in your game of life.
in your third quarter. You may be in your fourth quarter. Come on, you're not going to live forever,
not in this world. Come on. You may be in your first quarter, your second half, and this time
it's got to be personal. See, last time you were just running through the plays, last time you were
just running the songs that you rehearsed in rehearsal, last time you were just going through
the motions, and you got numb, come on, and you got tired and weary, and now you're broken and
and bitter and angry because you lost. And I'm just wondering if you're courageous enough,
bold enough if you have enough faith come on if you have enough inside of you resilience to
come back to the scene his life is relentless you better keep coming back from all your failures
all your doubts all your shit you better keep fighting keep getting up never fucking lay down for
shit that's one thing we should all agree on if you've been broken once you know how that shit
Fuck it.
Try and break me again.
You got a lot of people playing their hard-on-on-money to come watch you perform.
It's your job to be in shape.
It's your job to be strong enough to perform at that level every single night.
And as a competitor, I'm not ducking.
Like, it's not, oh, my God, my back hurts, I'm sore.
We got to play Vince Carter and Toronto Raptors tonight.
Pick your mountain.
Whatever that mountain is.
And each journey of the mountain is a million steps.
And each day you have to take that step.
Yeah.
Each day you take that step, you look up at the mountain, you say, that's where I want to go.
And then each next day you take your step over and over and over again.
Everything was done to try to learn how to become a better basketball player.
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.
Let yourself go.
Fall free into it.
Step into it.
You are worthy.
You are an unrepeatable miracle.
is none like you in all the earth there will never be another you your dma your fingerprint come on
your gate your presence your authenticity come on you're special you're special and you're necessary
nothing changes if nothing changes man in order for something to change there needs to be
change they'd say well i'm afraid to make a change and i'd say that's okay that's understandable
how afraid are you of not making a change let's make a change let's make
a little vision of that. You're 35, you hate your job. What's the consequence? You're not motivated.
You don't want to get out of bed in the morning. You're starting to get depressed. You're getting bitter.
You're getting resentful. You're getting cynical. You're a motivated at work. You're not doing a very good job.
And you're starting to shrink. Now, play that out for 10 years. You don't change it. You don't fix it.
And what happens? You're going to be in the same situation.
but 10 years older.
And if you can't get out of that situation now,
what the hell makes you think you're going to get out of it in 10 years?
You're only seeing what's in front of you.
You're not seeing what's above you.
I can't change the beginning, but could I change the middle?
Could I change, can I edit that story, rewrite that story and change my entire life?
Everybody's so crippled by decisions, but you never know how the other things.
worked out. Let me give you an example. Let's say you don't go to college and you start this
business and you were 100% right and it's huge and you're doing so great. But because you did that,
you had to fly to America for a big meeting and your plane crashed and you died. That would be a bad
idea. Or you think you're going to go to college because it's a good experience and you'll
meet people, you can meet people in a business. You're not going to know. I think people overthink
decisions. You'll never know what the alternative would have been. So just pick one and do it.
Change is inevitable. And you are either changing for the worse or changing for the better.
You decide. I hope I do not believe in you more than you believe in yourself. Now listen to me,
guys, the transition is going to be hard. I'm not going to lie to you. Go from being on the
block, going to be a high school dropout to get in the GED. It's not, the transition is not easy.
So what happens in order for you to go from one level to the next level in order for any man to
Transit listen to me in order for any woman to transition for any man to transition the thing that they want must be greater than the thing they currently have
Listen to me very closely. I didn't come in here to tell you you gonna finish school
I came to ask you what's next
I came to ask you what's next for me? It's the Nobel Prize
I always think about other people that's going through a tougher life than I am.
What if I had to change places?
Would I trade places?
You know, there's something I would always say to people from time to time.
If I could take out a piece of paper and write down my problems,
and you could take out a piece of paper and write down your problems.
And we exchange those papers.
And I'm thinking I got such a tough, tough life.
and you may have a tough life
but I pick up your paper
the one you may have written on
and I'm looking like wow
I thought I had it bad
and then the other person
said hey you got a lot better than I do
you know what I would do
I would say give me my paper back
I'll take my problems back
the point that I'm saying is this
I didn't put myself in such a pity party position
to where I felt why me
Why not me?
Why shouldn't I go through this?
See, you have to know, and I believe this even more,
there can never be anything good
unless there's some bad along the way.
There has to be a challenge.
There has to be a struggle.
There has to be some setbacks.
You cannot think in your mind
that that's all you good for is the good things.
How good are you when you at your weakest point in your life?
Where are you when you have to download your life?
Then what do you do?
You are either going to evolve or expire.
See, everything changes, the economy changes, relationships changes.
We change mentally and emotionally and physically, and you are either dying or you are either living.
How am I a different person than I was this morning when I woke up?
The initial reaction would be I'm not.
It's only been like 12 hours.
How could I be different?
But if I really think about it, what I'm not?
think about it. What do I now know that I didn't know before? What, you know, what experiences have
I had that my partner yourself hadn't had when I had just woken up? And if I actually think about it,
just like gratitude, I'm creating the frame of my past. I actually can and do see that I am
different than my past self, even 12, 13 hours ago or the night before. And by appreciating that,
I now acknowledge that I've changed, which increases my psychological flexibility. It allows me to see
that I am not the same person, that I am growing, that I am evolving,
which is really useful for then thinking of your future self as a different person.
You don't know.
Like, there is no time machine, there's no future machine.
We're all over-analyzing everything.
Like, how do you know?
You don't.
Like, this is why I keep trying to push people.
The only thing that I know seems practical is, are you happy?
Are you happy today?
It feels like it's the right thing.
Are you like this is important?
You can't analyze.
Like, I didn't know that starting a YouTube show for my wine business
was going to be the reason that I was going to have a huge investing career.
I couldn't see that.
This 30 seconds is your life passing you by an opportunity to change.
It's your prerogity.
You want to go down the path you have right now of your life and where it's going.
Where do you see an alternate path?
That's not flat line, but climbing up an extraon of remembrance, a possibility where dreams exist, legacy exists, the possibility of change.
It's within the grasp of these hands.
Within the craft of 32nd is within you. You had the will. You're here. I know you had will.
You have the intestinal fortitude. You had to want change.
You only live once. So do what you feel passionate about.
Take chances.
Don't be afraid to fail.
How do you know true strength?
When you never take some of the leaves.
When you never was down on your luck.
When you were at the bottom, I had to ask us.
I got to go through this hell, man.
This is it.
Because as long as you're living, you got to keep moving.
It all starts with a thought.
But changing your thoughts is easy.
It's free.
Can be instant.
What's the point of making it complicated?
Does that help anyone who says, well, I'm messed up and so hard to change and people can't change?
It's like, well, that's not correct.
Who taught you that?
From the minute you're born, you're changing.
Oh, you know, it's long and arduous to recover.
No, it isn't.
Some people will recover like that.
Some people don't.
But you could be one of the ones that changes your thoughts, changes your feelings, changes
your actions after all.
When do you experience the positive emotion that's associated with?
The answer is, not when you've attained a goal, but when you're pursuing one.
Don't you realize excuses will kill you?
It will destroy your well-being.
And the more excuses you make, the less effort you're going to get.
There's a million things I've done wrong.
It's because I didn't do something that would have sent me somewhere else, but I have no idea.
You don't know.
You don't.
If you do not apply what you hear and it goes over your head, you will make me a lot of your head, you will
miss your moment.
Nothing changes if nothing changes, man.
Do it your way.
You don't need their permission, but you need yours.
You don't need their permission, but you do need yours.
You do need to look at yourself and declare who you are, and you need to believe it.
You think my dreams are too big?
I said, absolutely not.
You're just telling them to the wrong person.
For some of you, the reason why you're not taking advantage of this opportunity is not
because you don't believe in it.
You don't believe in you.
In order to achieve greatness, you must first believe you can.
Because I get to decide I'm running my life now.
I'm finally in control of my life.
I'm finally the boss of my life.
Are you ready to be the boss of your own life?
Are you ready to be in control of your own life?
Are you ready?
And you deserve to have everything you want.
You deserve to live your body.
best life. You deserve it and stop listening to the people who tell you you don't. Kill the noise.
What do they know? We're going to do the hard work now. So here's the hard work. I need you to confront
you. I was created to be great. I was created to do great things. I was created to have great
things and I will no longer ask others for their permission. That person who is your
hater, they thought they defeated you. That person who told you you will never amount to
thing they thought they defeated you you want me to tell you to give up huh you want me to
tell you to quit is that what you want me to say is you want to hear ET say it's all right to
give up it's all right to surrender that's what you want me to say but listen to me there i can't tell you
that some of us just gride some of us don't make excuses some of us don't surrender some of us don't
give up and give it it's our dream nobody's going to see it like you do it's your job it's your
It's your dream. Nobody's going to feel it like you can feel it. It's your dream. Nobody's going to be as dedicated to it as you are. It's your dream and they don't have to understand and they don't have to like it and they don't have to do it. It doesn't make a difference. It's your dream and you, my friend, have been given the task to make it happen and you can't let anything stop you from doing what you were called to do. What we do with the pressure is we say, I got to take it, I got to take it to another level.
Once you start questioning yourself, you're already lost.
All of us will be successful in life if we don't quit.
I got to believe in me before anybody else believe in me.
I was going to rip his heart out.
I'm the best ever.
I'm the most brutal of Michigan, most ruthless champion that's ever been.
I'll show you how much you can.
See, they left you for dead.
I know what that feels like to be left for dead.
After you can't make me think you had.
Tomorrow night, I'm going to smash your bones.
guys I'm gonna smash your boy.
Comment as you rise as you work every single day, tirelessly.
Witness, it is my strength, that pain, it is my development, that struggle, it is my triumph.
Everything you think that is here to take me down is here to fill me up.
I asked you what is happening to us, my friend.
What has happened to us?
And what are we becoming?
What are we becoming my friend?
What are we making?
You know we've been fighting 400 steel fighting to this day.
To this day.
To this day!
At practice, when I switch my mind to something else,
The equivalent of Maximus, Desmus, Meridius, and Gladiator picking up the dirt, smelling the dirt.
I never underdid things, always overdid things.
When the war drums sound, the people that have been to war are the ones that actually say, let's think about this first.
Because like I said before, and like everyone says all the time, and they say it like it's no big deal, but war is hell.
Before you do that, you should think about why you're doing it.
And understand if the people have the will to fight.
And the will to fight, as I've said many times before,
the will to fight is the will to kill and it's the will to die.
And those are some pretty big wills that you need to have.
This is your life, my friend.
And I'm sure when it's all said and done,
you don't want to look back and see that you wasted it.
This is your life, my friend, so you stand up.
This is your life, my friend.
So you rise up
This is your life, my friend
So you keep going
This is your life, my friend
So you never give up
This is your life, my friend
You need to keep going
This is your life, my friend
This is what you get to come
So you may fail,
I'm ready
Though you may fall
You refuse to stay down
Though you may lose the battle
You refuse to lose the war
Reach the point of no return, my friend
where you're always willing to get forward.
My style is impetuous.
My defense is impregnable,
and I'm just ferocious.
I want your heart.
I want to eat his children.
Me, all in the same room,
they're saying nothing to each other.
Everybody's game-faced.
Like, we're going to war with each other.
The way I looked back then,
you know, that was all good and great,
but I wasn't in it to look up a certain way.
I was in it to be great.
Out of the hundred men that go into war,
tensioning you fucking be there.
80 of them are just targets.
Nine do most of fighting.
One is a warrior.
And bodybuilding initially made me have to look at who I am as an individual.
Do I want to do the training?
Okay, fine, I can train.
But do I really want to diet?
Do I really want to give up time with friends?
Do I want to be misunderstood?
All humans are not created equal.
Some people just have a beautiful hand of cards.
Yes.
That guy's got four aces and he puts them right in your face.
Boom!
I know if I bet on myself,
I know I can dictate everything.
I run everything.
I'm the boss.
Take 10 seconds and get it again, Beas.
Yeah, there you go.
There you go.
Energy.
Let me out.
Seven.
Hey.
Nine.
Tann machine here.
There you go.
Nobody works like that in this house.
Thirteen.
Come on.
14.
Come on.
15.
Shut that muscle down.
16.
Come on.
Get it.
17.
Who's going to carry the boats in the lawns?
Put yourself in that cage.
When you're in that cage, you are that character.
When you leave there, it's something completely different.
But when I'm in that cage, bro, don't touch me.
Don't talk to me.
Leave me alone.
Push that last rep.
Push with everything you got.
Tell excuses to step aside.
Let weakness know that it is not welcome in your house
And give it everything you got
Be productive, be powerful
And from the bottom of my heart, your business
Work harder than you.
Every motherfucker ain't gonna do what I'm gonna do
That's how you level up.
Stop being average when your potential is crying
To come outside to be more than that.
No one will outwork me.
No one.
It's easy to be great nowadays, my friend,
because most people are weak.
Most people don't want to go to that extra mile.
We don't want to find that extra because it sucks.
Of course, talent without work is nothing.
You gotta be hungry.
People that are hungry are willing to do the things today others won't do.
There's no excuse not to be the hardest model you work you're in the room.
You have to want it.
And you're going to fail.
And you're going to fail.
And you're going to fail.
And you're going to fail.
And then you're going to win.
and that's life.
Life without those challenges,
it's existence.
Don't just exist.
Eventually, inaction will cost you.
But your default setting should be,
I'm going to do something.
Just get up.
Move towards that challenge and go attack it.
Go do something that's hard.
Struggle sucks.
Depends on how you frame it.
If you want freedom in your life,
you have to have discipline.
Move towards that challenge,
whatever that challenge is.
And you may be successful.
and you may not be successful
but you will be better
and the next challenge
you can be more prepared for
because we're going to have wins
we're going to have losses
we're going to have successes
we're going to have failures
we're going to have good nights
we're going to have bad nights
we're going to have good relationships
we're going to have bad relations
we're going to have good ideas
and bad ideas we're going to make money we're going to lose money
all these things are going to happen
and if you oscillate
emotionally up and down
drastically it's going to be problematic.
Embrace those emotions,
but don't let those emotions embrace you.
Keep pushing
through things that suck.
This is a very difficult thing to
do because it hurts.
I'm going to go forward. I'm not going to quit,
so I'm going to go forward. Bring it on.
I don't care how good you are on anything. You don't have
discipline. You ain't nobody.
Because you give up a slightest struggle
without discipline. Do what you hate to do,
but do it like you love it.
You might not know this now, but
You're this close, signating your inner champion,
and reclaiming your destiny.
It's just that I want to be up more than anybody in the planet
want me to be down.
Be champion before you become champion.
Wanting to get the best out of yourself.
Not competing with anyone else, but you.
We don't back down from anyone,
and that's what got me in trouble.
I don't play games.
I don't kiss anyone's ass.
And I'm a real man.
And that's why I, regardless of being a Friday,
And that's why I want to be a man.
And if I die, I want to die, man.
And when you really focus, you hear everything.
When I come to the ring, I notice everybody
can hear you breathing.
I can hear you talking. I hear everything.
I'm scared to death.
I'm totally afraid. I'm afraid of everything.
I'm afraid of losing.
I'm afraid of being humiliated.
But I'm totally confident.
Closer I get to a ring, more confidence I get.
The closer and more confidence I get,
the closer and more confidence I get.
But as close I get to the ring, I'm more confident.
Once I'm in the ring, I'm a god.
No one can beat me.
There's no one who's savage.
Who know my name till the end of time?
A savage.
There wasn't nothing till I got something.
When I said something, I mean the crown.
You knew from the beginning the world was gonna know who Mike Tyson was?
100%, yeah.
At what age did you know that?
14.
Why is that?
Because I was beating everybody at 14.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
More than my skills, I had the mindset.
mindset. Do the kill, destroy, break them down? It's just, I'm the greatest. You know, success is all
about a lifestyle. I live a lifestyle as a champion. In order to be the champion, you have to live a
lifestyle with the champ. It's all about discipline, doing what you hate to do but doing it like you love
it. That's what it's all about. If you don't have discipline, I don't care of skill for you,
you're nothing. The best ever, why are you here?
Confidence breeds success and success breeds confident.
It's all about the belief that you can do it.
Belief is more powerful than anything.
Only thing we can do is just have that focus and believe in ourselves
and believe that I want to be up, then anybody in the world wants me to be down.
And it's all about, like I said before, self-belief.
My whole success is from belief.
I just believe in me.
and I'm going to overcome all my adversities.
The truth set you free, but it's going to make you miserable first.
And that's how we approve as a person, improving ourselves.
You have to first have the aptitude to do what you claim you want to do.
And if you have that, and the determination and the will to win,
there's nothing that you can't do.
There's nothing compared to anybody that tries.
Nothing's impossible then.
Confidence, breathe success.
Success breeds confident and confidence applied properly with superseded genius.
Life is just a circle.
They're going to hate me again one day.
And then God willing, they're going to respect me again one day.
Because in order to be a master, you have to first be a fool, I guess.
You have to believe in yourself before you believe in anything else.
God, you're living.
You have to believe in you.
And once you believe in you and have a relationship with you, it's nothing that you can't do.
You have to be the champion in this, to be the champion in this.
Win the day.
So that's why exercise is important to relieve your stress.
When in the morning, you win the day.
And so I realize life is all about in here.
It's all about your belief system.
Faith fear.
Never lose when you face it.
Trust me, never lose when you face fear.
No, my mistakes don't define us.
High points don't define us.
Life defines us.
As long as you can have happy moments,
take as many as you can
because life is just a flick of the eye.
Well, that's what life is about.
You got to sit in your room
some time, give your subconscious
some time and spend time
and just envision yourself
being with the most exciting people in the world,
doing the most exciting things in the world,
and just living that fantasy
and that fantasy would become reality one day.
Discipline could be taking your illusion,
and turn them into a reality.
Dream for yourself something bigger
than which you can ever imagine
and you become it.
Now that's a discipline.
In order to be able
to change anything,
you have to change yourself.
You have to look in the mirror and say,
what do I want to do to make me a better person
or what is it that I can do
that I could define myself
as being a better person than I am now.
You know, who can I help?
Who can I worship?
Who can I do something
to or wit that would make me feel like a better person that help me reach my highest potential.
You have to find that for us. What is the idea I can do? Help people.
You know, that's all I think about. How can we help somebody?
Visualizing, looking into the mirror, and that's what it's all about touching your inner core of your consciousness.
I don't believe in talent.
Well, some people they have talent, that's good. It helps when you have talent.
As long as you have a lot of determination and will power, that's all you need.
And you have to have the will to win.
How do you think anybody with the will-the-will-winner desire not to lose or succeed?
I would think of myself as a roaring gladiator, like Alexander the Great.
I feel like I'm a ruler when I'm in my mind, thinking about accomplishing something.
I think possible, nothing's impossible to somebody who tries.
So I never think about failure in that perspective.
I think about feeling, but not in that perspective.
I need the pressure.
Without the pressure, there's no me.
Without the pressure, I don't know.
have the guts to say, hey, I'm going to fight this guy.
I have to have the pressure.
Anything that I'm afraid to do, I do it.
And that's just how I live by life.
The more you're comfortable with you, the more you be comfortable with death.
And the more comfortable you are with death, the more peace you are with yourself.
I used to knew never to get discouraged.
I used to do it.
I would get my day if I continue to try hard and believe in myself.
I ain't who I am.
And I'm going to die being who I am.
And I'm going to live being who I am.
just who I am.
It's all about what you believe.
I got belief in myself and belief is more powerful than anything.
Life was given for a reason.
We were put on this earth to do great things.
But the challenges, ladies and gentlemen, the challenges had to happen.
They must happen.
But we must carry on.
Do we do with the life that has been given?
Face.
the circumstances that have been brought before us.
Do we give up?
Do we stand up?
Do we push through?
Those are the questions that we ask each and every day
when we are faced with adversity.
No one said it was supposed to be easy.
Our times create tough mass.
Tough mass creates tough characters.
but you got to carry on
so when it gets tough
you've got to get tough
we are born
to do great things
not everybody is going to stand with you
not everybody's going to support you
not everybody is going to be by your side
so when you're standing alone
make sure you stand
with a pure heart
that you do have
something that you must do to walk alone sometimes learn to be strong when you need to be
strong learn to understand that not everybody will be with you I dare you to go down
that path that many refuse to go I dare you to show up and show the world that you have
something that is special and unique about you I dare you to show the world something
I ain't never seen before about you.
I dare you to stand up.
I dare you to breathe life until you're perfect.
I dare you to do it.
I dare you to be strong.
I dare you to be a man.
I dare you to be a woman.
I dare you to be the one that they never even knew existed.
All you got to do is stand for, but you do pain.
Passive.
Focus.
Faith, you together, you will be an unstoppable force.
Not everything you do in life is meant for you.
Not everything that you want out of life is designed for you.
But there comes a time in your life that you have to just say, let's be patient.
let's take the necessary steps
let's make a few mistakes
I'm talking about the mistakes that happen throughout life
just to get to a common ground
accept the challenges
but don't give up
so when you're standing alone
make sure you have the right mindset
within you to know that hey at the end of the day
must stand
I must work I must believe I will fight I will work I will work I will push
I will never quit on me you let the naysayers tell you that you didn't have it
you let negativity surround you let doubt and fear control you do not excuses
kill you now what do you do you do you do you do you do you do you do you do you do you do you do
You gotta get up.
Stop sleeping on your dreams.
Stop sleeping on your desires.
Stop sleeping on your passion.
Ladies and gentlemen, no one said it was supposed to be easy.
I will make everything count each and every day of my life.
For my life is in my hands.
And I must be willing to do what I must do to get where I need to be.
In my life, hard times, what do we do?
How do we get through it?
Do we stress?
Or do we take a rest?
How to turn it up?
You don't know enough about yourself because you believed everything negative about you,
but you didn't have the truth within you.
You didn't understand that you were made for a reason.
You didn't understand that you had power.
Ladies and gentlemen, get out there and fight for your life.
What you do right now matters.
How you pursue your life, how you go further in your life,
is what you put inside of your mindset and say,
I am ready, I must go forward,
and if I look back, I'm too distracted to see what's in front of me.
Keep going.
Moment.
You doubt?
You step too far back,
and not enough forward.
You will lose yourself because you have given up.
You will lose yourself and you will never find your way back because you gave up too soon.
You will lose yourself because you didn't think you had it anymore.
Battles are meant to fight by each battle of your life.
And some you will win and some you will lose.
But if your heart is beating and your brain is functioning and your eyes are open,
Ladies and gentlemen, get out there and fight for your life.
It's hard.
Deal with it.
Every day you breathe is a chance for you to live.
Every day that you breathe is a chance for you to make a difference.
Every day that you breathe is a chance for you to stand up.
Every day that you breathe is a chance for you to make a difference within yourself.
Every day that you breathe is a chance for you to make a difference within yourself.
Every day that you breathe is an opportunity for you to fight.
Every day that you breathe is an opportunity for you to let the world know that you are about your business.
Let the hard work begin.
Let the testimony be the testimony.
When you are tested, be the testimony.
When you have been pushed back, push back even harder.
When you feel that you can't carry on, feel within yourself that you are alive and you've got a job to do.
It is all business.
Never personal.
Be productive.
Be strong.
Be powerful.
Hard work.
Never quit.
And from the bottom of my heart, ladies and gentlemen, conduct your business.
Again, again, again.
Type it in the chat.
Again.
Again, again, again, again.
If it's life-giving, if it's serving your purpose,
if it's going to transform you into something you never thought you could be,
then do it again.
Do it again.
Type it in the chair, dropping in the comments, man, again, again, again,
this thing served me, this thing helped me.
It hurt, but it's helping me, and it's building a bridge to the future
and the destiny that I've been called to fulfill.
been called to fulfill, period.
Every time you go back, you're building muscle, you're building mentality, you're building endurance,
you're establishing faith.
It takes faith to get out of this, to crawl yourself out of a messy history and leave a legacy.
It is the man that refuses to quit.
It is the man that refuses to put down his gloves that separates winners from wannabe's.
It is diligence and dedication and determination that separates the all-time grace from the one-hit wonders.
Do you want to do this thing one time?
Or do you want to be notorious for winning over and over and over again?
I just want to know is anybody listening that wants to do it again?
I don't want to win one time.
I don't want to be noticed one time.
I don't want to make history one time.
I want to do it over and over and over again.
Do it again, no matter how hard it was.
No matter how much you cried and you sweat and you bled.
Do it again.
Again, again, again, again, again, again, again, again, again, again, again.
Your wall and publicly to the call that's on your life, you think about it day and night.
Whatever the goal is, it's time to shatter the ceiling of the wall.
above your head, to break records, to shatter the status quo, to punch through targets.
It's your time.
It's your turn.
You've doubted yourself long enough.
People have left you, overlooked you, undervalued you, underpaid you, it's your time.
To connect.
It's your time.
To get paid, it's your time.
To sign the deal, it's your time.
He's great when they're not tired.
This is when they're tired.
That's when the real champions come out.
That's when that real dog come out.
It's where I think the real truth comes out because I think there are a lot of people who are very talented who can make it there
There are very few people who can deal with the pressure and the stress that happens when we're there
I feel I'm the best ever
It's not bragging the bosa the poop is in the pudding in my mind I'm always the best
I am the greatest fighter of all time
And when I hit you with a hard right hand
You will fall
You gotta win tomorrow
win right now if you're passionate about what you're doing keep going keep believing reach for
the stars everything is always impossible until someone does it maybe it has never been done before
that's perfectly fine with me but i'm going to do it never say never because limits like fears
are often just been losing hungry dogs run fast and let the bitch
If you look at the greats in any walk of life, the greats do things when they don't always want it.
And that's the separation.
It means you have to be more disciplined than not discipline.
I wanted to be the best I could be, period.
I was waiting for you to smile at some of the compliments.
You didn't.
Smiling doesn't win you go in Meadows.
I'm too fast.
I'm too skillful.
And I'm going to show everybody out of there watching this show and the whole world and the
world will vow and admit that I am the greatest of all times when you see what I do to George
Fuller.
I believe that whatever I put my mind to, and if I was willing to make sacrifices and I was
dedicated, that I could achieve absolutely anything.
I'm the best ever.
I'm the most brutal and vicious and most ruthless champion that's ever been.
There's no one could stop me.
I'd like to take this chance to apologize.
Maybe someone who don't like me because maybe I'm too good.
When some, you lose some.
But you live, you live to fight another day.
And I've always believed, like, I'm the Michael Jordan of this industry.
When I'm on the air, I'm the one that will make you want to hear from me.
I don't care who I'm on the air with.
I don't care who it is.
It does not matter to me.
By the time I finish speaking, I am the one that you're going to want to listen to.
That's my attitude.
If this requires 100% and you give me 99, I might want to fire you.
Because I'm not, I'm about getting the job done.
It's about the results.
And I think that, you know, unfortunately, when we look at our generation today,
not enough people preach about that.
Because I think that we live in a society where people have become masters
at pointing the finger at other people as to reasons why things don't get done.
I think there's too much explanation that goes.
on. But the bottom line is you ain't getting it done. And if you're not getting it done, I need
somebody that can get it done. I am of the belief that if you truly, truly adopt that belief
in your soul, that you walk to work every day, not looking for excuses. You're looking for a way
for the job to get done. And in most instances, you are going to be successful. Then not.
You want to go with status quo. You're perfectly fine with flowing along.
just to get along, safe, secure, whatever.
But when you're trying to win,
you're constantly looking to get better.
My philosophy is very, very simple
when it comes to my family, particularly, you know,
me being a dad.
If they're hungry, it's because I'm starving.
I don't eat until they eat.
I'm not comfortable until they're comfortable.
I don't have unless they have.
That's the mentality,
and that's the mentality that I strictly get for my mother.
And so for me, you know, having that kind of mentality, but what comes with that,
what comes with that is a certain work ethic that you have to put forth.
And it's a willingness to sacrifice.
Am I the most disciplined person in the world?
No.
Am I the most meticulous person in the world?
Like some people would believe?
No, I'm meticulous enough and I'm disciplined enough.
But I think the key thing is that the bottom line is everything to me.
And whatever the bottom line requires is what I'm going to do.
If the bottom line requires an excessive level of discipline, I'm going to do it.
But to me, it's whatever the moment or the situation demands.
And I'm a bottom line oriented kind of person.
You don't assume that opportunities are waiting for it.
You know obstacles or standing in every door.
So that challenge that you have to embrace and you have to deal with,
that's hard to deal with when you have achieved.
You don't work hard to play hard.
You work hard to have the ability to play when you want to.
There's a difference.
You handle your responsibilities first.
When you work hard and you have that sense of pride,
it goes right out the window if you utilize your efforts in a wrong fashion.
But when you do what's right and it's based off of that effort that you put in,
then you feel good about it because you took care of your responsibilities.
And I was not always confident.
There's no doubt about that.
I've always had my insecurities.
What I firmly believed in was as it pertained to me,
was that I always worked hard.
I was never lazy.
I was always somebody that believed in hard work.
Better know yourself is believing in you.
Knowing who you are, one year worth.
Having an idea about it anyway and willing to
work towards that to validate that reality. That's betting on yourself. It's your job. And if you can't do it,
you scratch, claw, and even die trying. We make excuses every day. All of us as human beings.
On far more occasions than not, I have to speak on the issue of accountability as it pertains to
the entire sports world. And when it comes to the issue of accountability, I get all of
of that from mom. It happened with ESPN when my contract wasn't renewed back in 2008.
I was sitting at the hour I felt betrayed. I felt ticked off. My mother let me lick my wounds
for a couple of days and then she said what could you have done better? You sure you didn't do anything?
And I thought about all of the stuff. I'm like the way is she talking about this is just not true.
This is not right. I work hard. I do this. I do that. And then I started thinking about it.
Yeah, I was a pain in that.
I did kind of complain a little bit too much.
But the biggest thing that I remember doing
is that I always came to the bosses with problems.
I never came to them with solutions.
It was always about the problem, never the solution.
And I learned when I sat back and reflected on the mistakes
that I had made in my career at the time,
I learned that no boss wants to talk to any.
that doesn't have solutions.
Instead of
working around the clock trying
to figure out what
somebody else wants from you,
good or bad, there
are moments that
crystallizes it for you in your mind.
Pay attention and you'll see
what they are. And you'll know
what to do accordingly. That
is what I believe makes me the best
it. It's my commitment
to excellence
for the collective
whole. Life is going to be hard. No one said it was supposed to be easy. Life isn't fair.
Sometimes you just got to do it alone. What do you do? How do you live? How do we get through it?
You got to stand up. You got to get up. The path that you have chosen was never designed to be easy.
Some people want it easy, but I dare you to go the hard way.
What do we do with the life that has been given?
How do we face the circumstances that have been brought before us?
Do we give up?
Do we stand up?
Do we push through?
Those are the questions that we ask each and every day
when we are faced with adversity.
Hard times create tough mass.
Tough mass creates tough characters.
But you've got to carry on.
So when it gets tough, you've got to get tougher.
When you're standing on your own two feet and the storm is coming in, you still got to stand.
And sometimes you just got to stand alone.
Greatness requires work and hard work.
is how you get it.
You don't give up
because it's hard.
You don't give up
because it's challenging.
You don't give up on you.
Let the hard work
begin.
So when you're standing alone,
make sure you stand
with a pure heart,
with a great mindset
because there's no one like you.
There's nothing that can stop you.
No one can do the things that you do.
No one can stand like you do.
You have to keep going.
You have to be truthful to who you are inside.
It was never designed to be easy.
Don't give up.
Go for it.
The question is, how hungry are you?
How much are you willing to give of yourself?
because it's really ultimately up to you.
You can't sit around and waste time.
You can't sit around and determine that everything is going to go your way
because it will not go your way all the time.
But I tell you what, if you keep laying around wasting time,
time is going to continue to carry on with or without you
because you have already decided to lay in your bed
because you were just too tired to get up.
It's up to you to make a difference so that you can be a difference maker.
It's up to you to be a solution and not a problem.
That means you've got to be serious and you've got to be willing.
And you got to be dedicated.
You got to take that leap of faith.
I understand it will never be easy.
I understand that I got to work.
I understand.
that sometimes I want to give up, but I will not give up.
So while you're sitting around, moping around, blaming everybody for what you're not doing,
guess what?
Nobody's going to sit around and wait for you to do the right thing for yourself.
Because it's all up to you.
So just get busy.
You are on your way
Success doesn't have time
for your excuses
Success doesn't have time
for your laziness
Success doesn't have time
for the person
Who doesn't truly want to change
See I know you are scared
Return that fear
And to fire
We've all been there
We've all been afraid of something
But don't give up.
You keep trusting.
You keep believing.
You keep going.
Embrace the suck.
And keep on fighting.
It's okay that you failed.
But don't think you don't have what it takes.
Don't doubt.
Don't be ashamed.
Trust in who you are.
Must work.
I must believe.
I will fight, I will work, I will push, and I will never quit on me.
I know that I have to work, I know that I have to believe, I know I have to trust in me.
You got to show up?
Sometimes we are going to have to just deal with the circumstances and the challenges that we face.
You can't be soft.
You can't be weak
And expect the greatness to come out of you
You can't expect anything good to come out of nothing
If you're not giving nothing you get nothing
Now get up and do your work
When it comes to the work ethic
That's when you have to dig deeper
That's when you have to work harder
That's when you have to shut out all
all the noise and all the naysayers.
Sometimes, ladies and gentlemen, you just have to be quiet and listen to your passion.
Listen to your heart.
Listen to your truth.
It's okay sometimes because these things are going to happen no matter how hard you work.
But you don't have the right to give up.
You don't have the right to give in
and stop playing a blame game
and go about your business.
When you have been pushed back,
push back even harder,
I dare you to go down that path
that many refuse to go.
Pain, passion, focus, faith,
be together.
You will be an unstublished,
Poppable force.
Float like a butterfly and stain like a beat.
I'm the biggest fighter in all history.
I'm the greatest fighter in all history.
I don't have to convince nobody in there that I am great.
They all know it.
I'll fight any man in the world.
I'll beat any man in the world.
As you know, I'm a confident man.
I don't believe I can't see anyone beat me.
Nothing worries me.
This is nothing but a small thing that will soon be out of the way.
I put everything on the line because I'm a true fighting champion.
I got the love in the ring, I'm handling it.
And I don't worry about nobody being that good to really hurt me, see.
If you don't believe it, come down here and try it.
I'm unranked.
It will be no match.
Oh, I'm so glad.
I'm going to make all of them shut the mouths.
All of my critics, I told you all that I was the greatest of all time.
I'm still the greatest of all time.
I'm going to float like a butterfly and sting like a bee.
His hands can't hit what his eyes can't see.
Nothing can stop me as you know I've been on the old type kind of person, all kind of pressures.
Look at my face.
I'm the original champion, a veteran of 186 fights not a scratch,
two-time United States Golden Glove champion,
two-time United States National AAU champion, world Olympic champion,
13 rounds I was predicted when I've been appalled.
He who is not courageous,
Enough to shake risk for accomplishment in life.
I'm a risk taker.
Tell all of the people out there who bet on Sonny
that all of them are going to lose their money
and get to the fight early because I might get him in war.
All of you chums are going to bow when I whip him.
All of you. I know you got him.
I know you got him, dick.
But the man's in trouble.
I'm going to show you how great I am.
I'm in such a high level until I don't think like you.
I'm not like you.
They just don't want to admit I'm as good as I am.
Leave every experience.
excuse behind.
Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Burn the boats.
Eliminate the options.
You're going in again.
And this time, you're coming out with a win.
Period.
Despite everything that happened to you, you're still here.
And I promise you, my friend, that is no mistake.
That's a purpose.
A purpose for you to live, my friend.
Purpose for you to live a life worth living, don't you get it?
So right now I need you to find a way to keep on living, my friend.
I need you to live.
I need you to live.
I need you to live.
I need you to live.
Do you hear me?
You keep on living, my friend.
The darker the night, the brighter the day, my friend.
You see, what anxiety loves to do is it loves to add up.
What fear loves to do is it loves to add up.
What all past trauma loves to do, it loves to add up.
What all worry and doubt loves to do is it loves to add up, my friend, into one big fist
and try to knock you down until you're gone, my friend.
But no, if you keep breathing past the anxiety, you'll make it, if you keep breathing past the fear,
you'll make it, if you keep breathing past the trouble, you'll make it,
if you keep breathing past the worry and death, you'll make it.
It's if you don't do something the other man is not doing, then you're going to get knocked off.
I don't care how many people have counted you out.
I don't care how many times you talk yourself out of it.
Go back and win.
Listen, my friend, you see you and me?
We're going to make it.
We're going to make it, my friend.
We're going to make it.
We're going to make it, my friend.
I promise you.
We're going to make it.
We're going to make it, my friend.
We're going to make it.
We're going to make it, my friend.
We're going to make it.
We're going to make it.
You are making it, my friend.
We're going to make it, my friend.
We're going to make it.
You are breathing to win.
You are breathing to live a life of abundance.
You are breathing to manifest what it is that God has put inside at you.
Write it up again, negotiate it again, call back, send the email again, send the text message again.
Do not give up.
Walk on the court again.
Run on the field again step into the arena again try it one more time and after you do that
You're gonna come back for more you are establishing a new nature a new protocol
A fresh government of how you conduct business
Let me tell you something my friend
Because of your downfall will be because of you
Nobody else but you you keep looking around trying to place blame on
things, people, everything else, instead of looking in the mirror at oneself and looking at who
caused this in the first place, you close the door in yourself because you are afraid to look
within yourself and see who did it, my friend, you are the one, but you have the key to unlock
that door and become something more.
It's your time, it's your turn, the weight is over.
Get up and give back to yourself.
We can get so wrapped up in the swirl of busyness, distraction, and noise that we lose ourselves.
I understand, my friend, the pain.
It won't stop.
The suffering.
It won't cease.
And it's hard to see it.
It's hard to see a better outcome for yourself, my friend.
I understand.
But look, if you just believe and you keep believing and you hold on to that belief,
Friday days are coming.
Weather through the storm, my friend, weather through the pain.
And I promise you, you will come out victorious.
You just have to keep it.
You are not a quitter.
You are not a one-hit wonder.
You are called to do something great.
A lot of you really messed up the first two quarters of your...
life. And if you're like me, you got to believe you got a third quarter and you got a fourth quarter.
And after all that's been said and done, every blessing and every battle, every memory and every
image of the past, release yourself from the trauma, torment, and pain of it all.
Step into your third quarter, step into your fourth quarter. Be fully persuaded that it's
your turn and it's your time. I don't care what the scoreboard says. You have an opportunity.
A warrior only needs one more opportunity to reveal to the world that he is more than just a dreamer.
If you're going to do something in your bloodline, if you're going to pass something down generationally,
if you're going to be a light, then sometimes you're going to have to get up when you don't feel like it.
You know what, my friend, I think you're stronger than that.
And I think you're capable of much, much more.
So bring it out.
Bring it out every single day that you live on this earth.
Bring it out every single day that you open your eyes.
Bring it out every single day.
Bring that the best version of yourself, my friend,
because we still have work to do.
There are seasons and timetables,
and there are rooms I've got to walk into,
and there are hands that I have to shake,
and there are contracts that I have to sign,
And there are deals that I have to close that are going to require me to lose sleep sometimes.
And so if I believe in the power of the future, then I got to be willing to get up.
You got the chance to wake up today, but somebody else didn't.
You got the chance to eat your breakfast, wash your face, brush your teeth, but somebody else didn't.
You got the chance to walk out your door, go to work, go to school, go about your day, like nothing.
else happened, but unfortunately, somebody else did it. My friend, you get the chance to do it all over again,
but somebody else will not. My friend, take advantage of the time you have. Give it all you got. He's
nothing me. I know what is it really doing for the time to have. Get dialed in. If you're listening to
me, let this be a moment of transformation and motivation, but let this moment not just move,
you but change you to take action, go back and win.
Listen, my friend, you see you and me.
We're gonna make it.
We're gonna make it, my friend, we're gonna make it,
we're gonna make it, my friend.
I promise you, we're gonna make it, we're gonna make it,
we're gonna make it, we're gonna make it, we're gonna make it,
we're gonna make it, we're gonna make it, we gotta make it.
Being a person that gives again, believes again,
does it again, picks up the pieces and tries to put the puzzle together again, try it again
and eventually winning, it'll become a habit.
Flight, progress, success will become our way of life, our code of conduct, our government.
This is what I do.
I'm motivated.
I'm dedicated.
I'm grooved.
I'm conditioned.
I'm ready to conquer the day.
You know, the number one excuse is I don't have enough.
time. I always tell people there's 168 hours in a week. If you get eight hours sleep a night,
well, there's 50 plus hours gone. You still have 110, 112 hours left. If you work 60 hours a
week, you still have 55 hours left to go do what's important to you. So I don't really
buy the time excuse, but that's the number one excuse that I hear. It's time to get real.
It's time to get wrong.
It's time to look ourselves in the mirror and come to the resolve that this version of ourself is not going to carry us in the stretch.
That I've been this version of myself long enough that if I don't change, if I don't do something about this, then I'm going to find myself bankrupt.
It's rewarded in public for what he does in private.
Discipline is the single most important thing that you can use.
when it comes to being successful.
Motivation is fleeting.
No one wakes up motivated every single day.
The key to success that you're looking for,
the thing that's going to make your dreams come true
is simple discipline.
It's doing what needs to be done
even when you don't want to,
even when you're not motivated.
Your only discipline once a week.
You're only determined twice a week.
You're only, you're only in,
enthusiastic about the journey on Sundays or Wednesdays.
And once you get a covenant, once you make a covenant with who you believe God is called to
being, you said, you know what, I'm going to commit to this, you're going to put the blood,
you're going to put the sweat, you're going to put the tears in, you're going to lose sleep,
you're going to go days without eating, you're going to do whatever it takes to make the
sacrifices necessary to manifest.
We give up too early.
just had a little bit of perseverance. If we just worked a little bit harder and just took it a day
at a time, our dreams will come true. There are too many people in your life who have left you.
There are too many people in your life who have counted you out. There are too many people
in your life who have whispered in your ear and said you'll be worse off without them.
Prove them wrong. When I start off my day by investing in myself, I set the tone for the rest of my
and everything else falls into place because I've set a precedent that I'm important,
that I'm worth it, that I matter. So I tell people, invest in you first and then you have the
energy, the drive, the passion to just uplift everybody else in your circle.
Physical is the easy part. See, the physical part, all you got to do is show up. If you could
show up again, be all in, ask some questions. Maybe we'll add be willing to suffer
a little bit into that mix, you will be okay.
The psychological preparation, that's a different story.
I always say the mind is primary, and I always say that a strong mind is a catalyst for change.
When you see the best athletes in the world either perform really well or on the other hand,
completely bomb out, it's because of that muscle that lives between the ears.
We only have so much real estate in our minds and our hearts.
We only have so much bandwidth in our mental capacity.
And the more distractions, the more delusions, the more negativity that we allow to take up real estate in our hearts and in our minds, the less energy we have to fulfill the call to fulfill destiny to manifest the idea.
Everything that you think about, that you meditate on, everything that has to your attention has to be worth your time.
So now it's time to navigate and do an appraisal of everything that's in our life, everything and everybody in our life.
Time to do an appraisal.
And ask it and ask them this question, are you worth my time?
If you're not, it's time to unplug.
Time to unplug.
Time to unplug.
Three rules Bobby Maximus lives by.
Number one, show up every single day.
Number two, when you show up, you want to be all in.
You want to be 100% present.
And number three, be curious, ask some questions along the way.
Don't be scared to admit that you don't know everything.
And if you can learn a little bit along with showing up and being all in, the world is yours.
If you want to be good at something, if you want to transform your body, you've got to spend 130 quality hours.
And the next question I'm always asked is, what does that look like?
like. It's an hour a day of dedicated practice for six straight months. If you want something,
if you want to be good at something, you want to accomplish something, you've got to put in the time.
And the minimum amount of time that you can put in is an hour a day of dedicated practice
for six straight months. If you want to be good at something, you've got to do it every day.
Like we look at people like LeBron James. Why is he good at people?
basketball because he does it every day. You look at Wayne Grexky in hockey. Why was Wayne
so good in hockey, arguably the greatest of all time? Because he did it every day. So my number one
piece of advice to people, if you want to be good at something, whatever that thing that you desire is,
whatever your passion is, do it every single day. That's the real secret of success. We celebrate
athletes and we celebrate critical thinkers and innovators and actors and we praise them and
coined them our heroes and we followed them by the millions. We love what they do in public,
but you don't know the story behind the glory. You don't know the blood, the sweat. You didn't see
the tears that they cry, the prayers that they pray, the countless weeks where they went without
sleep to get where they are. When you see somebody that's successful, your gut reaction is
to think they're lucky. They had a great trainer. They had it easy.
If I was in their shoes, I could do it too.
And the thing that I would want to say is,
these people work harder than you can imagine.
They show up every day.
They do the work.
They suffer.
So when you see somebody on a screen,
rather than criticize, be grateful.
Rather than try to cut them down,
maybe try to learn a little bit from them
because the amount of dedication that goes into that craft
a normal person will never understand.
The secret of change is to focus all of our energy,
not on fighting the old, but building the new,
and specifically behind closed doors when nobody's looking,
when no one is there to affirm you,
when nobody's there to validate you,
when nobody is there to agree with you,
you build in the dark,
and you announce it when it's failed.
