For those of you who want to change, you don't have to be wired.

You're already wired to. be critical. You're already wired to peep out flaws. You're already wired to do it. What you need to do is take that same energy and apply it to yourself. You have to go intentional and deliberate. How many times do I criticize others versus how many times I criticize myself? How many times do I try to correct others? How many times do I correct myself? If it don't drive you, don't want that. So whatever it is you see that you don't have, if it drives you go, I want that. And then you got to change. But you can't say you want that and you don't want change.

Anytime you want anything you don't have, you have to do something to get that because if you were the person that can have it, you would already have it. You'd have it already. You don't have it. And so you want it. So you have to become something different. You didn't have that, but you went after it. Be clear.

What do you want? What do you want specifically? Like you need to be clear on what you want. And I was willing to go through whatever I had to go through to get what I wanted. I knew what I had. That's not what I wanted. It doesn't matter how I'm living right now

because I'm going to live. And so it's difficult for you because you don't have no clarity. You're going to figure out who you are, why you tick, what you do, and then you're going to be able to take who you are and what you do and make money. I want you to be brave enough when something's not working. Do it right. You can't keep doing what you were doing before because you're losing. But if you can't implement the necessary changes in your life, you won't be able to improve yourself for your situation.

If you want to change your situation, you've got to get any new information. I just knew what I wanted. I knew what I wanted. I was clear on it. I'm committed, but I don't know that I'm convicted. Here's what I want you all to know. We have to be careful because some of us get an attitude because we're looking for things that people who are convicted get when we just committed. But I just want you to stop expecting what people with convictions have when you just committed. I'm doing that because now you mad like, oh, okay, so coach ain't going to start me. You just committed. You ain't got no conviction to the game.

You just played when it's time to play. That person is up all day, every day, running. lifting way. Michael Jordan was convicted about basketball. Kobe was convicted about basketball. That's why Mike is who he is. Not because he was the greatest ever, but the conviction that, like, did nobody want it as bad as he won't?

He was convicted. Some of us, we let our feelings like I ain't feeling it. I'm not with it. That's why I know I'm not convicted to run it. Because I always run when I feel like. I ain't never missed a day when I felt like. I've never run, though. when I've not felt it.

One of the things you have to do is operate in conviction and not commit. If you're going to win, if they're going to put your name in the number up there, you just can't play this game because there are other teams that want to do exactly what you got to do. So what you got to do in practice is one, two, three. In practice. If you can't dominate in practice, you can't dominate when the lights come home. I get up every morning at 3 o'clock. I dominate it 3 o'clock.

in the morning. I dominate when everybody's sleep. I dominated four in the morning, six in the morning. At eight, I go back to bed. Why? Because y'all just getting up. But I'm committed to it. Your everyday routine is cleared. Come on, we have a vision. We have a mission. We have a visionary. We have a mission. Our goal is to move the needle, not surround ourselves with loyal people who ain't competent. You guys I see our true colors. A trial or a tribulation. And now you wonder if I'm gonna do what I said I'm gonna do so now you gonna switch the game up okay I want you to see where you are so you can make the adjustment I need you to eat sleep read dominate

We're not playing to the level of our competition no more everything you do is gonna be in a way that nobody else does Paying attention being locked in and focus Paying attention being locked in and focus to me very close me. I take it personal when I do what I do. I don't care who we going up against one, two, three. Wake up every single day. I was here before I was here. I was up this morning here. I've been here before. I was in this spot right here. I was talking up right here. I envisioned it. I saw it already. You can't win it if you can't see it. You cannot be a prisoner to your preference. You cannot be a prisoner to your

own preference, meaning that just because it's what you prefer, if you lose and you lose it, period. And so you don't make your preference the God. You make winning or losing the God. So if you're losing, you have to do something different so that you can win. You have to self-assess, and you can't let you off the hook because it's you as two of y'all. It's a winning you and of losing you. And you do deserve to be a winner. When you're trying to score a touchdown, there are individuals designed to stop you from scoring a touchdown. That's their job. They're supposed to stop you. Your job is to not care about them trying to tackle you and you keep moving forward. You dominate when you feel like it and you dominate when you don't feel like it.

I've dominated my sleep pattering. I've dominated my laziness. I've dominated procrastination. Where I go, stuff happens. I dominate. There are no shortcuts. Discipline is you do it so long, so hard, and you're so passionate about it, that even when you don't feel like it, you still operate it to highest level. I dominate. And I realize that most of you in the room,

the reason why you're not going to get to where you're supposed to get to is because you don't know how to get there. Now, the other thing I've noticed is that people who have more clarity have more conviction and you start like oh man I want that I want that experience but you don't change as a human

so you can't get that experience like it's not possible for you to have it you can't change your life without changing your mind you have to play to win you have to be competitive wherever you are

whatever your space is this is my space right here, you have to be competitive. Whether you like it or not, whether you feel comfortable or not, and you have to get into a space where you got that dog, it's not for the weak at heart. You can't always be the most talented in the room. You can't always be like naturally gifted, naturally talented.

But watch this, you can be the most competitive. I'm saying y'all don't get it. You got to wake up every day and compete. You got to go after it. I'm saying people don't get it, bro. It's crazy. want change more than they want change. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's the craziest thing, bro.
