Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:33 New episodes are being released every week. The link is in the description. One day I made a decision that if nothing's enough, I'm tired of being average. I'm tired. I'm tired of being good. I'm tired. I want to go to the dealers shipping by the best car. I want to move to the nicest neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:00:57 I want to fly first class. I want to go to Hawaii. I want to go to Australia. I made a decision. Enough is enough. It's showtime. Will the real Eric Thomas please stand up? Some of you in the room right now, you are where you are?
Starting point is 00:01:13 You're giving 60% when you have 120 in you. Why? Because you've never made a decision. There are those of you in this room. You're already there. Your problem is, it's stuff. You don't want to give up to court. You're talented.
Starting point is 00:01:29 You just don't want to give up sleep. Listen to me, pound for pound, any agent in the room, power for power, motivational speaker, power for pile, entrepreneur, for pound for pound athlete, power for power, weight lifting, pound for power. Whatever you do, I guarantee you when you do it, nobody can do it like you do it.
Starting point is 00:01:47 The problem is you don't hardly do it. You love sleep too much, you love that alcohol too much, you love that substance too much, you love that vice too much, that's something that you love more than yourself, your dream, then your goals. Watch what happens when you have a goal that only has two reasons. See how long that last. Watch your goal that has 50 reasons and see how you.
Starting point is 00:02:12 There's somebody called me the other day on the interview. Stupid question. E.T. What do you feel like on the days that you don't feel like? Ask the question again, please. What do you do on the days that you don't feel like? So I'm going to be honest with you. I'm way past that every day I feel like.
Starting point is 00:02:32 Every day I feel like eating. Every day I feel like giving my wife the best life. Every day I feel like driving in a nice car. Every day I feel like flying first class. Every single day of my life, I feel like giving 100. Every single day. Somebody said yesterday, ET, you gave 120. What you're gonna do tomorrow?
Starting point is 00:02:53 I said, I don't know. Get 140. I don't know, but I don't have days where I don't feel like it. Why? Because I'm counting on me. My wife's counting. I don't have days to waste. No more 50% no more. No more 70% no more. I want it's an 85% climb.
Starting point is 00:03:10 If you're 80, I want you at 90 and I mean moving rapidly. It's not rocket science. And the universe is not responding to you correctly because your body leverage sucks. Your spirit sucks. I need you to give me that 120. I need you to give me that everything you do. I need to start giving me that 120 and everything you do.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Bring it all. All in all in you. Bring it all together, bring all the energy, all the passion, bring it all together and dominate. I got an opportunity to make a dream become a reality. When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you'll be successful. You have to give it everything you got. No more TV, no more parties, no more plan. If you don't have a 4.0, what you need to be doing is studying. Get off the phone.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Sorry, I'm not available until the end of this year. No, I'm for real. It's the right number but you call me at the wrong time. Call me back January 1st. I'm about to get busy now. Stop being this high school dropout. Stop giving up, stop sleeping on the street, stop walking up and down Finkl Avenue like you ain't got nothing and get your GED.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Stop being afraid to take a test. I got to commit my very being to this thing. I got to breathe it, I got to eat it, I got to sleep it. And until you get there, you'll never be successful in life. But once you get there, I guarantee you the world is yours. So work hard and you can have whatever it is you want. When I went to college, guys were way smarter than me. 4.0s, 3.0, they went to the Ivy League high schools, came to Oakwood from these great
Starting point is 00:05:05 high schools. Most of them are not doing what I'm doing. Why? Because it's not about where you come from. It's about hearts. You come to a place where, you know, being smart ain't enough. You gotta have hearts. Don't go to sleep until you succeed.
Starting point is 00:05:17 There are a lot of people that are sitting around waiting for something to happen. Now what you're going to do about it? We're getting out of college and we have the faintest idea of what we want to do. So I always ask the question, what would you like to do if money were no object? How would you really enjoy spending your life? Well, it's so amazing as a result of our kind of educational system. Crowds of students say, well, we'd like to be painters, we'd like to be poets,
Starting point is 00:05:50 we'd like to be writers, but as everybody knows, you can't earn any money that way. Another person says, well, I'd like to live an out-of-doors life and ride horses. I said, do you want to teach in a riding school? Let's go through with it. What do you want to do? When we finally got down to something which the individual says he really wants to do, I will say to him, you do that.
Starting point is 00:06:13 And forget the money. Because if you say that getting the money is the most important thing, you will spend your life completely wasting your time you'll be doing things you don't like doing in order to go on living that is to go on doing things you don't like doing which is stupid better to have a short life
Starting point is 00:06:38 that is full of what you like doing than a long life spent in a miserable way and after all if you do really like what you're doing it doesn't matter what it is you can eventually turn it you could eventually become a master of it the only way to become a master of it become a master of something to be really with it. And then you'll be able to get a good fee for whatever it is.
Starting point is 00:07:03 So don't worry too much. That's everybody's somebody's interested in everything. And anything you can be interested in, you'll find others who are. But it's absolutely stupid to spend your time doing things you don't like in order to go on spending things you don't like, doing things you don't like. Wake up from your dream and make your dream a reality. Wake up. Wake up and understand the significance of the purpose that you have within yourself.
Starting point is 00:07:33 Understand that if it's something that you are truly ultimately seeking in your life, then you've got to go after it. There are a lot of people that are sitting around waiting for something to happen. Now what you're going to do about it? How are you going to go about doing the things that are necessary to get you where you need to be in your life? Everybody has a dream. But how much are you applying to that dream? How far are you pushing that dream?
Starting point is 00:08:00 When are you going to realize that the dream is not going to work by itself? I have the ability to rise up and push yourself and believe in yourself and make that dream a reality. What's your why? Hey, if I don't give y'all nothing else, you better start that. What's your why? You know why I do what I do and I do is so passionately? Because my grandfather was a high school dropout. My father was a high school drop out.
Starting point is 00:08:27 I was a high school drop out. And we're about to break the cycle. I do what I do so my son won't have to go through what I went through. When I was at the football game, my old dude wasn't with me. I saw other kids when they fought. I said that'll never happen to me. I do what I do because my daughter says she's going to Harvard. It ain't even about y'all.
Starting point is 00:08:44 I'm about to come in here and blaze y'all. Why? Because I'm trying to get you all the NFL. I ain't about to miss this opportunity. This is the first NFL team I've ever done in my life, and I'm about to lick it. I'm about to give everything I got. And I will know if I don't get another gig, it won't have anything to do. with the fact that I didn't put everything on the field.
Starting point is 00:09:04 What's your why? Why do you wake up in the morning? Why do you put on that jersey? Why do you go out and practice? Why? I got to commit my very being to this thing. I got to breathe it. I got to eat it. I got to sleep it. And until you get there, you'll never be successful in life. But once you get there, I guarantee you the world is yours. So work hard and you can have whatever it is you want.
