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.
It is not over.
You are not done.
It is not too late.
What matters is that you believe in you.
What matters is that you believe in your vision.
You simply have to give it everything you have to get it.
You need to shut down all negativity.
And frankly, not give a shit.
what others say and think. You want to know what the 10 most dangerous words in the English language are.
What will other people say and what will other people think?
Celebrate the small wins. If we keep looking at the big picture, if we keep looking at the end game,
if that's all we fix our eyes on, then we'll get off kilter. We'll lose our footing and we'll walk around
discouraged because you're not going to just wake up in one day and fulfill destiny.
It's the process that's perfecting us.
So are you willing to make the tough decisions?
Are you willing to get up every time you fall?
Success looks glamorous from the outside looking in, but there is always a price to pay.
Do what makes you happy.
Do what you think is right.
At the end of the day, if you and you alone can look yourself in the mirror and be contempt the choices you've made, then that's all that matters.
I don't care what your background is. I don't care what the story is. Only you know your story. Only you know your journey.
But you've got to make sure you understand how this thing is made. You're running this race by yourself.
So don't worry what place you come in. I want you to start. I want you to finish. And I want you to never give up.
If you're not hungry. If you don't have to be able to.
grit if you don't have the tenacity then you're not going to get what you're looking for
but you gotta have that mindset that quitting is not an option give up who me never stop who me never
that's for the next guy that's for the next girl but not me why because i don't quit they ain't how i
do it they ain't how i roll i never give up if you truly want that greatness you got to work hard
You got to dig a little bit deeper.
You got to find it.
You got to go after it because it's not looking for you.
Success is not looking for you.
You've got to go get it.
The sacrifices, the tears, the late nights, the early mornings,
all of it will be worth it.
So you know, one of your biggest problems is that you keep thinking that there is another you.
And for me, I started to accomplish more than I ever have in my life.
I realize that there's nobody like me, that there's nobody that can do what I can do.
You have to come to the resolve today now that you don't need anyone's permission to make your dream a reality.
It may not always go to what you want, but at the end of the day you have to understand that there's a reason for you.
And there's a reason why things happen.
Once those things have been figured out, now you're going to move.
to purpose. Purpose has already been
been. It has a bottom line to them. There is
no, what's it supposed to happen? There was no coincidence
attached to it. It was meant to be. It is going to happen.
No matter. You're thinking, not thinking how we're feeling this world.
Purpose has already been.
See, we're not supposed to tuck our dreams in on the pillow when we get up in the
morning. We're not supposed to leave them at
home and go and fulfill somebody else's dream. We're not supposed to do that. That's not what we're
wired to do. That's not who we are. Your human spirit doesn't care about the economy. The human
spirit doesn't care that my son's father went to prison. The human spirit doesn't care what's
happened to your family. The human spirit doesn't care about the past. You may have been
molested or your family may have been broke or you may have been betrayed or you may have a divorce.
Your human spirit doesn't care about any of that. Your human spirit simply says what's our
command for tomorrow.
Every room you walk into, you show up and you show out that you leave it all on the table.
Remember your passions.
When you don't see a light at the end of your tunnel, you've got to remember the light that
is burning inside of you that nobody is able to put out.
There is not a person on this planet that can stop.
I know there are a lot of people out there that always seem that they want to go back
or saying that they have to get back to something.
The goal is
To move forward
Don't ever get yourself in a position
Where you feel you have to always go back
Or saying that you have to get back to doing what you used to do
Or getting back to what you had before or whatever
The goal is to move forward
The best thing you can do is try your very best
Not to fall off track
There are three types of people in this world
There are people who watch things happen
There are people who wonder what happened
And there are people who make
things happen. You got to determine
which person you are.
You can make a wish or you can
make it happen.
You must first believe that you can,
that you will, that you must.
When you are no longer willing to
tolerate being in the
room of failure, then that's
when you're going to break free.
See, either you don't want to be as great as you really are
and you're trying to dim your life
so that others won't feel insecure
about themselves in your presence.
And so you keep playing
at 79 watts when you know you're supposed to shine at 159
and you keep checking the temperature of the room to see what the room can handle
versus just giving the room you and let them if your light's too bright and let them put on some shades
can you give yourself permission to live in the duality of your imperfections and your
smallness and what you're learning and what you still have to learn and your greatness
and your brilliance in your light can you allow them to coexist and then serve them up to the
to love you, to see you, to inhale you, to judge you, to leave you, to love you.
Some of us are just as afraid of being loved as we are to be left.
Get up, work hard, put some effort into what you want out of life, because all you have is you.
All you have is what you have inside.
Don't wait for somebody to tell you what to do.
You know what you need to do.
Get out there and get it done.
Because that's ultimately what you have.
it's going to take. You have to have the courage, the will, and everything you have inside to get to the level and beyond the level you want to be.
What's up, man? You made it back. Another 24 hours down. It's incredible. I'm proud of you for that. And I know you don't want to be here. I get it. I stay the
mind. It's tough. I understand that. But don't quit. As if you quit, you're going to wind up right back where you started.
Remember when you started how bad and how desperate you were to be.
right where you are right now.
Yeah, I remember that.
You got to keep that same attitude, man.
You got to keep moving forward.
Keep pushing it.
Don't allow fear of failure
and the allure,
the attractiveness of playing it safe in life
to draw you in.
You can't get out of life alive.
You've got to die to leave here.
When you're asleep, ladies and gentlemen,
you need your dreams.
I'm here to tell you that when you're wide awake, you also need your dreams.
You must have your goals.
You'll never make it as a wandering generality.
You must become a meaningful, specific.
If you're going to work tomorrow because that's what you did yesterday,
you're not going to be as good tomorrow as you were yesterday,
because now you're two days older and no closer to the goal, which you do not have.
I'm telling you to keep going when you face opposition.
I'm telling you to keep going when you face opposition.
face adversity I'm telling you to keep going because years from now when you look back
make sure you remember one thing about this moment that you gave everything you
had that you leaned in on those late nights and those early morning wake-ups the
hours upon hours in the books the preparation dedication and the resilience
that you knew who you were and let it mann't
and lead you into the future.
Hello, you can't get out of life alive.
So there's no safe position.
You can die in the bleachers or you can die on the field.
You might as well come out on the field and have a good time.
Problem is permanent.
Or you start thinking the problems pervasive because I haven't handled my finances,
my whole world's over, or because my relationship's bad,
my whole world's over.
Or all this is happening because there's something wrong with me.
Your life is bigger than that.
People need a new perspective and you can't do it by just sitting and thinking.
You've got to move your body. You've got to change your energy and your focus.
Because low level of energy, I don't think you have to get how smart you are,
you're not going to use all your ability.
But if I get you into a higher state of being, mentally, emotionally, physically,
then all of a sudden you start remembering who you are
and you start coming up with answers that you never even thought were possible before.
Doesn't it really astonish you that you are this fantastically complex thing?
And that you're doing all of this and you never,
You never had any education in how to do it?
You never learned that for this miracle?
It's one of the great wonders of life.
You aren't here to simply survive or navigate foreign territory.
No, you were made for this moment.
Most of us have been conditioned not to take a risk.
People ask me all the time, what does it take to be happening?
And I always tell them it's really simple.
One word, progress.
Progress equals me.
happiness. If you keep growing, you're going to feel alive. And if you keep growing, you're going
to have more to give. When you find the way out of no way, when you find breath that you don't
have, when you find energy that did not exist, when you want this thing as bad as you want to breathe,
that's when you find a way. Doesn't take any motivation, any drive in order to stay down there
on a low level. But it calls on everything in you, ladies and gentlemen, you have to be able to
to harness your will to say, I'm going to challenge myself.
Sometimes I have to pull myself out of bed and say, come on, Les.
Things I know I should do, I don't do.
Things I shouldn't do I do.
I found that the biggest enemy you have to deal with is yourself.
There's an old African proverb that says if there's no enemy within,
the enemy outside can do us no harm.
If you're willing to endure, to hang in just a little bit longer,
give just a little bit more if you're willing.
To put all of yourself into the task before you, you may just be amazed at what life gives back.
The greatest ability that God has given humankind above the animals is the ability to choose.
A dog can't be anything but a dog.
A cat can't be anything but a cat.
A human being has the power to choose.
We can choose.
And I'm asking you, what do you see in the future for you?
What brought you here today?
What caused you to get up?
What is it that you're looking for?
You get to choose as much as you want.
You get to design it any way you choose.
You're not sentenced to your future.
You have an opportunity to your future.
How do you want it?
And if it doesn't make you a little afraid, then you ain't playing big enough.
You all have your own unique rhythms and daily habits.
and things that you need to achieve and the things that you need to accomplish so let you look in the mirror and you feel like yes I can
Why choose this is our goal?
And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain?
Why fly the Atlantic?
There's a choice you have to choose for your happiness
You have to choose for your well-being. You have to choose for your family
You have to choose for your health and wellness
You have to choose for success
When I made a decision to follow my destiny I felt it caused
My destiny was calling me.
That's one small step for man.
We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other thing.
Not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
Because that gold will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills.
Because that challenge is one that we're willing to accept,
one we are willing to postpone, and one we intend to win.
You have time.
You have the knowledge and the willpower and the discipline to get it done.
Your heart, your life, your happiness is your responsibility and your responsibility alone.
One day you're going to realize your life is yours and there's a lot of people important to you that surround it but ultimately it's yours.
Then you must decide where you want to invest this life in.
invest in something worthwhile.
You have to picture yourself there.
Wherever it is, you've got to picture yourself there.
All right, the next step is you've got to believe it.
Number one in your life's blueprint should be a deep belief in your own dignity, your own worth,
and your own somebodyness.
Don't allow anybody.
Don't allow anybody to make you feel that you are nobody.
See, sometimes we can't say I can do that.
But what we can say, that it's possible that I could have my dream as we run toward it,
as we work on it day in and day out.
They were going to make a change, and then they made it.
This is your moment.
It's not tomorrow.
It's not next year.
It's not when you're going to graduate.
It's right here right now.
And every choice you make, you're impacting that thing.
We're going to be lying.
You know, when the lion is injured, when the lion is bleeding,
he licks his wounds, and he keeps walking.
You're the time.
Hey, hold up.
Lighthold him.
And when that thing tells you to quit, you look at it in the moment.
His eyes say I ain't going nowhere.
I will break you before you break me.
You will be like a shock.
You would think like a shock.
You can't go backwards.
And if he stops swimming, you will die.
If life knocked you down, try and land on your back.
Because if you can look up, you can get up.
This is the year of the word.
Act like you here.
This is the year of the one?
This is the year of the one.
Act like you.
The only time for you to change your life is now.
Always feel that you kind of.
always feel that you have worth and always feel that your life as ultimate significant
you choose what you're looking for because what you look for you find that's how life works
make good choices great things happen but you've got to believe in you so I believe
our place in the stars.
I want to skip the flattery and the out of boys,
because I do know this.
The sooner that we become less impressed
with our life, with our accomplishments,
with our career, with whatever that prospect is in front of us,
the sooner we become less impressed
and more involved with that and these things,
the sooner we get a whole lot better at doing it.
It's like we've forgotten who we are now.
Explorers, buying the ears, not caretakers.
Now, why do you pursue things that scare you?
Why seek the role that's hard?
Because it cost me something.
Because it costs.
It comes to the price.
It's not really a risk unless you can lose the fight.
I feel more alive in them.
I have an experience in the making of them.
I'm nervous every day I come to work.
I hear the things you can get away with in this world,
everything you can.
Life is not easy.
It is not easy.
Don't try to make it that way. Life's not fair. It never was. It isn't now and it won't ever be. Do not fall into the trap, the entitlement trap, a feeling like you're a victim. You are not. Get over it. Get on it. And yes, most things are more rewarding when you break a sweat to get them. I feel like when I nail a day and I knock and I know I did, I feel like, yes. I have a measure at the end of the day. You set out to do something. You prepared for it. You had intention and you did it.
That gives me gratification.
That makes me feel, gives me significance.
That gives me confidence.
Be brave, have courage, and when you do, you get stronger.
You get more aware.
You get more respectful of yourself and that which you fear.
I want to talk about our opponent this afternoon.
You're bigger, faster, stronger, more experienced.
And on paper, they're just better.
And they know it too.
I want to tell you something that they don't know.
It excites me.
Just because you can?
Nah.
It's not a good enough reason to do something.
Even when it means having more, be discerning.
Choose it because you want it.
Do it because you want to.
It's on you.
It's on you.
You will have to become someone you've never been before.
You want to go somewhere you've never gone.
You got to do something you've never done.
You got to say something you've never said.
You got to go to a place in you that you've never even been.
You get to redesign.
You are your Michael Angelo.
You are your greatest sculpture.
And you get to recarve and you get to up-level as much as you need.
You're not sentenced to this life this way.
You chose it.
You get to choose it.
much as you want. You get to design it any way you choose. You're not sentenced to your future.
You have an opportunity to your future. What do you want and how do you want it? And if it doesn't
make you a little afraid, then you ain't playing big enough. Your knees are supposed to knock
a little bit. Your teeth are supposed to chatter a little bit. They're supposed to be at least
two butterflies in your stomach. At least, because if not, you're playing inside your comfort
zone and we mistake the fact that we're supposed to be comfortable 24-7 well let me tell you something
comfortable as equivalent to complacent i'll choose inconvenience every day any day to make a difference
on the planet i don't mind being mildly to moderately to significantly inconvenient to leave my fingerprint
on this planet so i just came to talk to the game changers and to the change agents who are willing to confront
any part of you that's not speaking to your madly wildly, wildly amazing future.
And here, greatness, brilliance, outrageous, I'm perfect in my imperfection.
Own it.
How many statues, Oscars they give you or Emmys, or how much money you have in the bank.
We've all seen people have all those things and I get the phone call because they're depressed
or somebody commits suicide in that area.
So it's really an inner game.
And I think that's what's missing for us today.
Everybody's focusing on the outside world.
And hell, there's a lot of things in the outside world.
You'll never be able to control.
You can influence, but you can't control it.
This, your mind, your motions, your body,
you have 100% control over what you do with these things.
And that's where the game is won.
You win the inner game, then you win the outer game.
But a lot of people spent their life trying to win the outer game.
They won and they're miserable.
We're always worrying.
Did I think this over long enough?
Did I take enough data into consideration?
And if you think it through, you find you never could take enough data into consideration.
The data for a decision in any given situation is infinite.
So what you do is you go through the motions of thinking out what you will do about this.
And then when the time comes to act, you make a snap judgment.
It's amazing how often it works.
It's necessary that you have the mindset that I can do this.
You've got to begin to believe and to fortify that belief and feed that belief by listening to tapes.
Going to seminars and workshops, by challenging yourself, by stretching yourself.
Don't get so wrapped up in what happened yesterday that you miss out on the opportunities that are waiting for you today.
Remember, whenever one door closes, there is another door waiting.
for you.
So to me, success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure.
And so many people are focused on success still, which to me is like, it's not the wrong with
it, but it's like success is getting what you want.
Fulfillment is living what you're made for.
To take the risk of doing what we want, which will work, to the extent that we realize
that what I want, basically, what I really want is what you want.
And I don't know what you want.
But I never would have discovered what I'm able to do right now if I wasn't willing to take a chance
and you've got to be willing to do that.
You've got to believe in yourself.
I want to change the world.
I want to make the world a better place.
I want to fulfill the promise.
I want to make a difference.
I want to be different for my own life.
I want to be successful.
How do you do it?
One day, one choice, one minute, one hour, one second, one decision at a time.
You want to become a risk taker.
You want to raise the ball on yourself.
Most people won't do that.
that. See, most people engage in low life living, low risk living. This God said, if you're not willing
to risk, you cannot grow. And if you cannot grow, you cannot become your best. And if you cannot
become your best, you can't be happy. And if you can't be happy, then what else is there?
When you're serious about changing, all of you need to do, you don't have to tell anybody
you're changing, just do it. Let your life speak, let your life scream, let your life shout,
and let it speak so loud, it will speak volumes, and nobody can ignore it.
You start making good choices. You start making good decisions.
If you can't fly, run.
If you can't run, walk.
If you can't walk, crawl.
But by all means, keep moving.
