My hero, that's who I chase.
Now, when I was 15 years old,
I had a very important person in my life come to me and say,
who's your hero?
And I said, I don't know, I've got to think about that.
Give me a couple of weeks.
I come back two weeks later.
This person comes up and says, who's your hero.
I said, I thought about it.
You know who it is?
I said, it's me in 10 years.
So you see, every day, every week, every month,
and every year in my life,
My hero's always 10 years away.
I'm never going to be my hero.
I'm not going to attain that.
I know I'm not.
And that's just fine with me
because that keeps me with somebody
to keep on chasing.
I don't know what that dream is that you have.
I don't care how disappointing it might have been
as you've been working toward that dream.
But here's what I know.
That that dream that you're holding in your mind,
that it's possible.
See, sometimes we can.
I can't say I can do that, but what we can say that it's possible that I can have my dream as we run toward it, as we work on it day in and day out.
No one, ladies and gentlemen, could have convinced me when I started out just over six years ago working on my dream, and I want you to think about whatever your dream is, because I was willing to take a chance.
and most people won't do that.
Most of the people that you talk to to try and bring them into the business.
These are not risk takers.
Most people have done all that they're ever going to do.
They raise a family, they earn a living, and then they die.
But people who are running toward their dreams, life has a special kind of meaning.
And here's what I will share with you,
that in the process of working on your dreams,
you are going to incur a lot of disappointment, a lot of failure, a lot of pain, a lot of setbacks, a lot of defeats.
But in a process of doing that, you will discover some things about yourself that you don't know right now.
What you will realize is that you have greatness within you.
What you'll realize is that you're more powerful than you can ever begin to imagine.
What you will realize is that you are greater than your circumstances,
that you don't have to go through life being a victim.
But not only is it important that you believe and begin to know that it's possible for you to live your dream as you run toward it,
but it's necessary that you work on yourself, that you develop yourself.
It's necessary that you get the energy trainers out of your life, people who don't want anything,
people are not striving, people who are not challenging themselves, people who aren't growing, people who have stopped dreaming.
It's necessary that you align yourself with people and attract people into your business who are hungry,
people who are unstoppable and unreasonable, people who are refusing to leave life just as it is, and who want more.
My mother used to say, birds of a feather flocked together.
If you run around with losers, you will end up a loser.
It's necessary that you get the losers out of your life if you want to live your dream.
You got to set yourself up to win.
You got to set yourself up with a process that allows you to consistently grow, consistently enjoy your life,
and consistently produce the results that you're really after.
Somebody told you that hard work no pay off.
I'm here to tell you if you work for it, if you're willing to put in that sweat, that blood and those tears, baby, I'm telling you,
you can have what you won't, be what you won't, do what you won't.
Are you hearing me?
Keep going to you see it.
Don't quit.
Don't give up.
Listen to me.
Don't give up.
Don't give in.
You hang in there.
You hang in there because if you quit right now, you ain't going to never see it.
But if you hold on, if you hold on, everything you dream, God, everything you envision, everything you work for, it's common.
But you can't quit or give up before you get it.
If you work hard, you can't have it.
It ain't none you can't have.
You deserve it.
It ain't none you can't have if you're willing to work for it.
It ain't nothing you can't have it.
If you're willing to persevere, if you're willing to stick in there, if you're willing to stay,
if you're willing to fight, it ain't nothing you can't have.
Are you here what your boys telling you?
It's yours.
It's yours.
I'm coming.
I'm telling you, it's yours.
You can have it.
It's yours.
You can do it.
It's yours.
You can be it.
It's yours.
If ET can do it, listen to me, anybody can do it.
High school dropped by homeless, lived in abandoned buildings, 12 years and get a four-year degree.
If you want it, if you wanted it as bad as you want to breathe,
If you really, really want it like you say you want it, you could have it.
This ain't for the week and the uncommitted.
Are you hearing me?
Success is not for the week and the uncommitted.
This is physical.
Sometimes it's going to hurt.
Sometimes it's going to be painful.
It's hard.
Yep, it's hard.
Yep, it's difficult.
Yep.
Why?
Because the process is weeding out the week.
It's weeding out the week.
And so sometimes you've got to play hard.
You got to play physical.
You got to play tough.
Execution is worship. You gotta get to a place that when you started, you get through the middle up at the doldrum, and you finish it.
You hear me and not just finish, you finish, you finish strong. Listen to me very close to most of you, the reason why you'll never be successful is because you procrastinate, you procrastinate, you never finished up.
Don't get caught up and well I've tried it four or five times and things didn't work out.
If there's something that you want and you're hungry for it, you've got to do whatever is necessary until.
And when you give the best you can and that's not enough, you must do what is required.
And don't give up on yourself.
Don't throw the towel in so quickly.
The secret to success is finishing.
Execution is worship.
Are you hearing me?
Oh, you better hear what I'm telling you, baby.
Listen to me very closely.
Execution is worship.
Hard to understand, but sometimes you can try so hard at something.
Sometimes you can be so, so prepared.
so prepared and still fail.
And with every time you fail, it's painful.
It causes sadness.
Especially as I saw last night, it causes disappointment.
I've often said a man's character is not judged
after he celebrates a victory by what he does when his back is against the wall.
So, no matter how great the setback, how severe the failure,
you never give up.
You never give up.
You pick yourself up, you brush yourself off, you push forward, you move on, you adapt, you overcome, that is what I believe.
Everybody here, everybody watching, I won't be stopped.
Either committed, or you aren't.
You're either willing to do everything it takes, whatever that might be, or you aren't.
You either are willing to go through hell and high water and fire and fucking brimstone to get to your goals, or you aren't.
That's why you'll never be what you want to be.
That's why you'll never have what you want to have.
For confidence, you're all over the place.
Success guy is a very, very lonely road, man.
Along that road, you're not going to see too many friends.
You see your shadow most often.
You've got trust in the heart of hearts.
Inside what you're doing, what you believe in is a worthy cause when it will fight.
I wish I could tell you you're tired, go take a break.
I wish I could tell you tired rest for a year.
I wish I could tell you that it's going to get easier.
I wish I could tell you it's going to be easier.
going to get easier. I wish I could tell you that if you just keep going, it's going to get lighter.
The weight is going to get light. I wish I could tell you that you, when you get to the point
where enough is enough, when you get to the point where it hurt real bad, when you get to the
point when it's over, when they're tired, when they're frustrated, when they're ready to give up,
when they spent their last dime, that's when they get started. But what you cannot do
is you cannot quit doing the process. You cannot give up because
It ain't what you see.
You cannot give up.
Work on yourself.
Work on your focus.
You cannot stop.
You got to work.
The problem with you is you see difficult as something negative.
I want you to see difficult differently.
Are you hearing me?
I need you to push through that stuff.
Push through it.
You can get through it.
The more you go through, the more difficult
the more challenging it is listen to me the harder it is are you hearing me the more
challenging it is all you doing baby is building muscles in life you're either going to a storm
in a storm or you coming out it's a part of life there's nowhere around it so just be
careful not to allow the trials and the tribulations to consume you I don't care if you a billionaire
I don't care if you a CEO or the most important coming I don't care
if you're an entertainer.
Like, I don't care who you are.
You can go to the moon.
We all have problems.
What I'm trying to tell you is this, though.
Problems are part of life.
But guess what?
They're not life.
It's not going to be easy.
There are moments when you're going to doubt yourself.
Their rough times are going to come, but they have not come to stay.
No matter how bad it is.
Or how bad it gets.
You've got to make it your personal business to make it happen.
I've noticed something.
Deep down inside of us there lies a bright light.
A light that feels so dim when we're surrounded by darkness.
When all we feel is hopelessness and shame and stress and this darkness seems to overpower any light that may be there.
And it feels like there is no hope.
There is no light at the end of the tunnel.
feels like our lives are just over.
It's true.
But that's not true because deep down inside,
there is a beautiful light.
There is a beautiful light that will liberate your mind,
that will liberate your free soul,
that will take you to a new level in life.
Surrounded by that light is the darkness of your past,
the shame, the regret, the guilt, the worry.
Deep down inside, you have to dig deep down inside of yourself.
And you're going to have to look that darkness in its eyes.
And not look away from the darkness,
but rather look straight in the eyes and say,
I no longer need you.
I am no longer that darkness.
And so that darkness will not thrive.
It will not survive.
That darkness will die.
That darkness will go away.
Not because you forced it out, but because you no longer fear the darkness.
You let go of the darkness.
Freeing up space for the light.
And when the light gains power, when the light regains its power,
it will overpower any darkness that may try to seep and seek into your mind and body in life.
It will stride far greater than any darkness has.
But you must free yourself from the dark by going.
deep into the depths of it and understanding it.
By not running your entire life from it, but instead, right now, today, tomorrow, soon,
look it in the eyes and say, I no longer fear you.
I have a life to live.
Nothing is hopeless.
Nothing is worthless.
I am powerful.
I am beautiful.
I am amazing.
And it's time for me to start believing it.
No longer do I want to stay in the same routine, stay in the same mindset, the same condition,
mind, I want to release the power of my mind. I want to dive deep into the depths of the light,
into the depths of inner peace, into the depths of joy and happiness and the state of being,
not into the depths of worry and stress and depression and anxiety and shame and guilt, but stay away,
not because I'm scared of it, but because I'm free from it, because I no longer need it, because I
have one life and I'm going to live it to my fullest of business.
I just knew in my heart to just go, go all into this.
And so I went. No questions asked. And it wasn't a picnic. The rise up is tough. But it's who you become in the process when you're chasing this unknown. When you eliminate fears. And so my offering is to really analyze what you love to do and to go chase it. Because making money should not be your focus to do. To do something.
something that you don't really love to make money. What is that? All that is is a transference
of stress. You are taking on stress at this job that you don't like. This is stressful for you
so that you have less stress when it comes to finances. So is that eliminating the stress? No,
you're transferring it from finances to eat at a little better place, to live in a little better
apartment to then develop more stress while you're at work. Does that make sense? The money
will come when you're really good at something. I can guarantee it when you really have an
effect because that will create a polarizing reaction in people that they will be drawn to you
and you cannot be really good at something if you don't love what you're doing.
That's the bottom line.
Chase this uncertainty where your heart is telling you to go, because it knows that it will
discover itself if you choose to go down this ambiguity, if you choose to go unfold this mystery,
because you will discover what you're really made of if you choose to go down this abyss.
Listen to me, you better grow up and get to the point as a man that if you ever get beat, you better get beat by somebody that's just
That's just purely more talented than you are.
You better not ever get beat by somebody
because you beat yourself.
You have to take advantage of an opportunity
of a lifetime in the lifetime of the opportunity.
If a lion see an animal that's wounded,
what do they do?
They don't kill him.
Why don't they kill him?
He already hurt.
And they beast.
A part of being a beast just ain't eating a gazelle.
A part of being a beast is the hans.
It's the hunt that they're excited about.
Most of y'all think that a lion is who he is because of how ferocious he is when he catch that gazelle, when he catch that zebra.
Real lions like to hunt. They love the process just as much as they love the prize.
And some of y'all just want to score. You don't like the process.
You're not in love with the process.
If you will be a champion, if you will be a beast, you're going to have to go through something.
A real man in the dark when nobody's watching, he put me in work.
Because he loves the process.
Most people think that the people that are at a very high level in society are cut from a different cloth.
They think that they're literally a different breed than them and that they can't get those things.
What you learn is that no one's cut from a different cloth.
So you learn what one man can do, another man can do.
But see, here's the thing.
Although we're not cut from a different cloth, the fact that I mastered consistency is the difference.
And most people will never do that.
They don't have the ability to be consistent.
Your brain just wants to keep you alive.
Your brain doesn't give a fuck about your little bullshit dreams.
All your brain wants you to do is just pump out one or two kids so the DNA can continue on.
That's it.
The brain doesn't give a fuck about your little dreams.
It's going to lie to you.
It's going to trick you until you can get it on your team, right?
So it's going to lie and trick you.
You got to just be consistent.
You got to have that consistent thing.
And you've got to cultivate a love for the process.
You got to love the process.
And you've got to make a decision to love the process.
Learning how to cultivate that motivation to stick at some menial task day in and day out.
It's actually like harder than you think.
Because your brain will trick you.
You are your own worst enemy.
I have a lot of fear.
I feel for funny things that I feel the key primary
school test for two times and I filled like three times for the middle school you know for three
years I tried to fill in the universities so applied jobs for 30 times got rejected I went for a
police they said no you're not good I went to even the KFC when KFC come to China come to
my seat 20 24 people went for the job 23 people
accepted. I was the only guy. And we went for police, five people, four of them accepted.
I was the only guy did not receive it. So to me, being turned down, rejected. Oh, by the way,
I told you that I would, I applied for Harvard for 10 times rejected. I know if you reject, I just
don't know. Sorry now. One of the things you got to understand, my friend, is that you're supposed to fail.
you're supposed to fail because failure is the stepping stone to success.
You need a logical reason why.
Because failure is an experience that lends to wisdom that ultimately makes you a stronger version of yourself.
Maybe you've got to test anxiety.
I don't know, but the worst thing you can do is quit.
Talk to your professor.
I'm not 100% sure, but I know that you cannot quit.
Just because you failed doesn't make you a failure.
Another one of these cliches or cliche stories is about Thomas Edison, right?
When a reporter asked him, you know, what is it?
How did you feel about failing a thousand times?
And he said, no, I didn't fail a thousand times.
I just found a thousand different ways that it wasn't going to work.
And that's what's happening with you.
But every time he found a way that didn't work, he was adding to his journey.
He was growing stronger.
You learned something.
You discovered something.
You were discovering something by yourself
and you're exercising your character
every time you get up and try something,
move in the direction of something,
even if you don't get the thing.
It's not about the thing.
It's not about making the basketball team.
It's not about making a million dollars
and it's not about the light bulb.
It's about what you learn along the way,
who you become along the way,
and you're on the journey.
And guess what?
The journey's hard.
The journey is riddled with failure
and that's why most people don't do it.
Most people are willing to get on that journey
because they're afraid to fail.
You, my friend, have failed.
Congratulations.
It's the greatest thing that ever happened to you
because it shows that you're alive,
it shows that you did something,
and it shows that you're growing stronger.
Now, go and fail again.
I hope you guys are watching these videos.
I hope you're going to fail a thousand times.
Keep going out there and failing.
You know what that means?
Every time you fail, it means to me.
It tells me that you're doing something.
See, a lot of people,
because they don't want to make any mistake,
It takes us to the next level.
A lot of people don't want to fail.
Fear of failure, fear of success.
And guess what else?
Fear of the unknown.
You know what's the church you said about courage, Pat?
He said, courage is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.
So you want to courageously hold on to your dream and not lose enthusiasm.
A guy in Los Angeles all over the front page of the newspaper, he just passed the bar after taking it 48.
times. He had more than enough reason and excuses not to take it. His son has a law firm. He could have
been a legal assistant, a clerk, and people all of a sudden used to laugh at this guy. He was a
laughing stop. People would do that too. You know people talk about John Kennedy Jr. failing the
bar. Did you read in a newspaper that he passed? I didn't see that, but did they make a bigger deal
about him passing as he did when he failed? No, you know why? People like to see you fail.
They like to see that.
People are like that.
I don't know why it's set up like that.
I was on the expressway traffic was jammed up.
You know what was happening?
It was an accident.
But people pull over to the side to get out of their car to go wrong.
To see somebody else's suffering.
That's why talk shows are so popular.
So people like to hear other people's misery.
Get it caught up in that.
Then they go magnified in their own life because that's all they focus on.
Who decided it doesn't matter how many times I feel.
I'm going to courageously pursue it.
I don't care what people say.
I don't care what they think.
This is something that I want that gives my life meaning and value.
If you constantly remind yourself after every defeat, after every setback, every time you
get knocked down, I've got a saying if life knocks you down, try and land on your back
because if you can look up, you can get up.
See, a lot of people because of failure, they stop, they stop believing.
Let me share something with you.
You will fail your way to success.
Yes.
Eight out of ten millionaires have been financially bankrupt.
You will fail your way to success.
It doesn't matter how many times you fail.
It doesn't matter how many times people tell you that you can't do it.
It doesn't matter if you don't have a dime in the bank.
You will fail your way to success.
