New episodes are being released every week. The link is in the description. One characteristic became apparent as a major predictor of success. And it wasn't communication skill.
Starting point is 00:00:53 It wasn't emotional intelligence, good looks, or physical health. It wasn't even IQ. It was grit. To be successful. at anything, the truth is you don't have to be special. You just have to be what most people aren't. Consistent, determined, and willing to work for it. No shortcuts, integrity, purpose, determination, and discipline that it takes to be a champion in life.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Grit is about persistence, resilience, and determination. It's about showing up day after day. It's about holding on to your dreams, even when the road ahead looks dark and uncertain. Grit is passion and perseverance. Grit is having scaminer. Grit is sticking with your future. Begian day out, not just for the week, but for years. It's the most important attribute.
Starting point is 00:01:54 It's more important than intelligence. It's more important than domain expertise. That ability to grind through even when you don't see immediate results, even when it looks like you're going backwards. That ability to stay gritty and grind, that's the difference between winners and losers. You practice piano, you practice math, you practice cooking, practice some grit. Grit is work. Grit is a challenge of a lifetime. Grit is something that many people don't even know how to get through it.
Starting point is 00:02:26 It's about winning one-on-one battles. Try to fight. It's our fight to fight. One in six doesn't define who you are. What defines what you are is what you do when you want and six. Give everything you got today. Fight your fight. First things you're going to find about being gritty is that it really has to be something that you're excited about this,
Starting point is 00:02:49 worthwhile to you for whatever reason, to push through, to suffer through the boredom, the difficulties and all of that. And I think that's the most underlooked part of grit is that. It needs to be something that you're compelled by. It's got to be, like, cool and exciting and interesting to you. We often hear stories. of people who succeed seemingly without effort. Those who make it look easy. But what we don't see is the grit behind their success.
Starting point is 00:03:19 The countless hours they spent practicing, failing, trying again. The times they wanted to quit, but didn't. We don't see the struggle they faced or the sacrifices they made. And yet through it all, they held on. Because I'm telling you from experience, I got a GED. I lived in abandoned builders, ate out of trash can. I got a PhD now, and that ain't on IQ. That's on GQ, grit.
Starting point is 00:03:52 That's all grit. PhD is all grit. Masters degree, all grit. Took me 20 years and get a 40-year degree. That's all grit. So I can't teach you how to be elite, but I can teach you how to go in there. I'm talking about grit. I can teach you how to go in there and murder some other teams.
Starting point is 00:04:07 Not with talent. Just outdoors. So I'm talking about endurance. Just having more stamina than they got. Let me tell you something about grit. Let me tell you about what it really means. Grit is when you're hurting so bad. Grit is when you're hurting so bad,
Starting point is 00:04:28 but you know you've got a job to do. Grit is something that pushes you in a total different direction. Now, I'm not talking. about those naysayers. I'm not talking about those individuals that cry and moan and grown because they're not getting what they want right now. How do you get through something? You got to keep climbing. It's going to hurt. It's supposed to hurt. If it doesn't hurt, how you're growing. The greatest minds, the most successful entrepreneurs, and the most accomplished individuals didn't get to where they are without failure.
Starting point is 00:05:07 They didn't get to where they are without learning, adjusting, and keeping at it when things got tough. You see, grit requires a shift in how we perceive challenges. We must begin to see difficulties, not as threats, but as opportunities. Talk about grit, right? That ability to grind and stick with something even when you're not seeing progression, even when you don't see results being made. So it's a really important attribute, right? Don't look for any games where there's been no sacrifice. Don't wake up and look for no game.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Don't look for your game to improve. Don't look for the record to improve. Without sacrifice, there are no gains. It's easy to get discouraged when things don't go as planned. It is easy to quit when success seems so far to reach. But if we embrace grit, we shift from being passive observers of our circumstances, to achieve creators of our own futures. You think this is tough?
Starting point is 00:06:11 So the fact that he's riding you, the fact that the coaching staff is riding you and saying no shortcuts, do it the right way, do it over, do it over, do it over, do it over, do it over. Why? Because in practice, you get to do it over, and the game you don't. They write that stuff down.
Starting point is 00:06:25 It's recorded. Everything we do takes time, takes courage, takes understanding, takes the will it takes a reason it takes knowledge
Starting point is 00:06:45 it is a gentleman climb and you slip up get up when you feel like you want to quit don't quit know that you have to do these things know that you have a responsibility
Starting point is 00:07:08 to yourself to the people that depend on you and love you. Climb. Consider the story of Michael Jordan. Jordan didn't make his high school varsity team on his first try. He was cut from the team. Told he wasn't good enough.
Starting point is 00:07:33 Many would have given up, but Jordan didn't. Instead, he chattled his disappointment into relentless drive to improve. His failures became. came his motivation in the result six NBA championships, five MVP awards, and a legacy that inspires athletes worldwide. But grit isn't conformed to the world of sports. It's present in every field, from business to education, from science to the arts. Take J.K. Rowland, for example, before writing the book Harry Potter series Rowland faced numerous rejections from publishers. She was living on welfare, struggling as a single mother, but she refused to give up on her story.
Starting point is 00:08:31 Today, the Harry Potter book have sold over 500 million copies. It has been translated into 80 languages. Her success, not just a tale of talent, but a story of grit, the courage to preserve despite overwhelming odds. So why am I passionate? Because I got a chance to control my own life. You have a chance to control your destiny. That, my friend, is the American dream. Not a Cadillac, not a big house. The American dream is all men are created equal. Grit is the bridge between dreams and reality. It's the strength to keep going no matter what.
Starting point is 00:09:20 So when you face obstacles in your life, in your own journey, remember that the greatest success stories aren't built on talent alone. They're built on grit, the ability to preserve, the courage to rise, and the unshakable belief that no matter what, you will. We just go with grit.
