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. New episodes are being released every week.
Starting point is 00:00:36 The link is in the description. Embrace being an underdog. Embrace being the individual that they say cannot do it. The underdog is a person that comes out on the playing field and says, okay, I've been in this place of paying my whole life. I've gone without for so long. This is the day you make up in your mind where I will take the throne. If you are an underdog, you've got to believe against all odds.
Starting point is 00:01:17 If you are an underdog, you've got to learn to close your ears to everybody. You've got to learn to close your ears to everything. You've got to learn to block out the distractions, and you've got to learn to get focused, all right? The champion is the one that never lets the sun catch them sleeping. This is what life is all about. Everyone on Super Bowl Sunday, they ruled for the hundredth of them. Because it's something about watching the small people, the people that they say are not their talents, watching them succeed.
Starting point is 00:01:59 You must wake up every morning and dig every day for that one day to show up. And don't you stop pulling, don't you stop digging until it shows up. Because they said you can't. They do it. They say you don't have what it takes to make the investments. They say you don't have what it takes to lose the weight. They say you don't have what it takes to hang on to your marriage. Everybody has been counting out.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Everybody has been doubted. Forget the underdog because that dog has more fight and that pick-poor. It's truly the greatest. The dog is not a person who doesn't feel pain, doubt and fear. The underdog is a person that turns that pain. that doubt, that fear, and to their fuel. It ain't no shame in thinking about quitting. It ain't no shame in getting tired.
Starting point is 00:03:09 It's no shame in feeling burnt out. It's no shame. But the trick is, don't just think about it. Say to yourself, I gotta rethinking and get this thought out of my mind. Why? Because the shame isn't quitting. So if you thought about it, it ain't nothing wrong with that boo. But whatever you do, don't let that thought.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Don't let that thought become a reality, all right? Everyone has been an underdog. Streams all the way back to Little League. When you were a toddler, passed you and believed that you didn't have what it take. What do you want to do? What's the wrong? What about that?
Starting point is 00:04:04 Underdog? Body sees you coming. You see, there's a difference between a dreamer and a chaser. Dreamers keep dreaming. Chasers get to work for coming. So are you a dreamer? or chasing. Be ready to fight.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Be ready to fight for your life. Be ready to give it everything you got. Make sure what you are up against, understand that you are there to do business. You are there to work hard. You are there to outwork what's against you. Nine times out of ten, the underdog always comes out with the wind because the underdog was more hungry. The wolf that is on the hill is never as hungry as the wolf that is clapping the hill.
Starting point is 00:04:56 He'll hear. The underdog is still trying to prove himself. The underdog is still trying to tell the world, I can do this. Whatever that dream is, whatever you have, that goal, that improbable feet, once you get it sent, once you smell that, once you get a feel for a taste of it. And the underdog is an individual who refuses to live in the dark. I know what it's like to be an underdog. I know what it's like to be laughed at. I know what it's like to have a dream and have no one believe in you. I know what it's like to be dumped, to be written off, and to be slept on. It sucks. It hurts. It's depressing. I'm here to tell you that you need to get over it. It means nothing. It's all in your head. The 10 words that will ruin your life are what will other
Starting point is 00:05:53 people think and what will other people say. Not a minute that you have would it take to get the job done. Remember, and they say, you're not qualified enough. The thing that matters is that you're willing to work your behind on to change their mind front. Underdog is just a man or a woman who is made up their mind. They are no longer going to live in their setbacks. They are no longer going to live in your reality.
Starting point is 00:07:18 Your reality of me says, I'm not enough. Your reality of me says, I can't do this. Your reality of me says you won't finish today. My reality says all I have is all I need. I'm not living at my setback any longer. I'm moving forward. I'm coming after everything you said I couldn't have. While the rest of the world is sleeping,
Starting point is 00:07:53 you are wide awake and you are on the attack for your success. It doesn't start with them and they. It starts with me. So I'm just wondering when you're going to make it personal. Are you really prepared to grind it out? Everybody wants public authority, but nobody wants private discipline. When your habits change behind the scenes, when your private life begins to shift, when you put aside the things that are not serving you, if it's going to be personal, make it personal.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Don't just be great in public, be great in private. Success doesn't always have to be loud. Sometimes it's necessary to be true. quiet and just move. Are you really prepared to do what you need to do to get what you want out of your life? You got to live, you have to breathe, you have to eat this purpose. Every single day, you are either losing ground or gaming ground. You are not going to win anything until you understand what struggle means.
Starting point is 00:09:16 You can never quit. But you got to walk hard and silence. You've got to walk where nobody's watching. You've got to sacrifice behind the scenes when you take it personal, your private life changes. Success is a process. The process comes before success. The struggle comes before the process. Everybody wants to contribute to destiny, but nobody wants to be committed to destiny.
Starting point is 00:09:55 What kind of work are you putting in behind the scenes? What can you conquer in the dark? Personal is your purpose. This is what we call grinding in silence. Not everyone needs to understand your true motives. Not everyone needs to understand your purpose. Not everyone needs to understand your mission. But the truth is, it's about passion.
Starting point is 00:10:44 It's about discipline. It's about awareness. It's about accountability. That's right, ladies and gentlemen, you've got to be accountable for your actions. But are you prepared to grind it out? Are you prepared to dig a little bit deeper? Are you prepared to fight a little bit harder? Are you prepared to put in overtime?
Starting point is 00:11:15 Somewhere along the line, you lost your footing, you lost your place. It got cold. Too cold for you. And see, one thing about an achiever is rain, sleet, or snow, they keep building. But you have not. sacrificed you have not suffered you are not committed when you are committed you give everything you have every single week every single day every single
Starting point is 00:11:50 hour every single minute 720 hours a month you are beating on your craft even when you're at work you're dreaming you're thinking your vision casting you're writing it down making it playing can you communicating to your destiny connections so that it can become a reality. If you can see it in your head, you can hold it in your hands. But the question of the answer is, are you committed? Now it's time to grind. Now it's time to fight.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Now it's time to believe. Now it's time to know that your success story has yet to be told. Don't sit back and have a pity party. Don't sit back and wait for an opportunity to happen. It is up to you to go out there and get the opportunities. You want success? Then go get it. You want to be better?
Starting point is 00:13:01 Then be better. You want something more than what you have right now? Then you got to have. desire within your heart and go strong and go with everything you have. I don't know who I'm talking to. I don't know what you've been called to do, what you've been called to accomplish, what you've been destined to build who you've been called to be connected to, but the dots will connect. Every single moment that you have is an opportunity of a lifetime.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Are you committed or are you just contributed? The choice is yours this time make it personal. Hear my voice. Know that you do have some work to do. The work that you do will determine the outcome in the end, but do it in silence. The ones that need to be a part of your development, they will always be there. And the ones that doubted you, I'm talking about the Naysayers, just simply say, be quiet, because you have nothing.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Gotta give 110% and get it to a point where all you got to say is, I don't have nothing to do with my success. The noise that you making can't stop my purpose. The noise that you making can't stop my fight. The noise that you making can't stop my grind. Your noise is just empty. It means nothing to my success. I didn't get it overnight.
Starting point is 00:15:12 And yes, I had many sleepless nights. And I had amazing dreams of what I could become. Can you stretch yourself? Can you condition yourself? Come on, can you believe again? Can you see it again? Can you write again? Can you make this thing personal that it doesn't start with the people connected to you It starts with you it doesn't even start with your past
Starting point is 00:15:39 It starts with where you are and where you're going can you look ahead? Can you stretch forth can you condition yourself can you prepare yourself for the next thing come on make it personal But you got to work hard and silence You gotta take it personal I make this thing personal So while you're sitting around second-guessing yourself my beautiful people Get back on your grind. Be productive.
Starting point is 00:16:08 Keep your head up high. Stay in the moment. Live every moment. Move in silence. And from the bottom of my heart, conduct your business. You've got to learn how to move in silence. Yeah, nothing changes and nothing changes, man.
Starting point is 00:16:38 You know, we'll sit around forever wondering, well, what if I, You know, what if I was a dog catcher? Would I be the best? What if I was a, you know? Every day we change the world. But to change the world in a way that means anything, that takes more time than most people have. It never happens all at once. It's slow. It's methodical.
Starting point is 00:17:00 It's exhausting. We don't all have the stomach for it. What if it's a mistake? It's a mistake. Rest assured. What do you know? You're going to stumble around. right and what's going to happen is this you're going to move to you're going to not stay in
Starting point is 00:17:15 stasis you're not going to wander around in circles and I see people like that they said well I never knew what to do and now I'm 40 it's like that's not so good that's not so good and you might say well and there is a literature too that suggests that people are a lot more unhappy when they look back in their lives about the things they didn't do then they are about the mistakes they made while they were doing things but they say it's not that simple, any. So what's the truth? There it is.
Starting point is 00:17:52 I want people to understand that they're not alone, that there are other people feeling exactly the way they're feeling, that their behavior is not insane, that they have a disease, and it's not their fault. There's a very famous kind of line that people don't change. I happen to know that people do change, I see that every day.
Starting point is 00:18:16 I see people getting better. I see the lights in their eyes come on. There's a million excuses I could make to rationalize, not getting up early, doing the ice bath and going for a run. There comes a time when all these potential excuses turn into fuel that motivates you to keep going. You've got to get out there. You've got to give it everything you got,
Starting point is 00:18:41 whether it's your time, your talent, your prayers or your treasures. Because remember this, you will never see a U-Haul behind a hearse. If you want to know something about yourself, sit on your bed one night and say, what's one thing I'm doing wrong, that I know I'm doing wrong, that I could fix, that I would fix.
Starting point is 00:19:05 You meditate on that, you'll get an answer. And it won't be one you want, but it'll be the necessary one. It's the whole issue. People have a feeling that they're going to be. can change, but they have no effort. They don't want to get into game because they feel it's, you know, it's just too much time and it doesn't work and I tried it and it doesn't work.
Starting point is 00:19:24 And then they give up and then life just goes on. It's seamless. You don't see it. It's just the way you've been living. And my older brother, who was 12, got into an electrical accident and he died in my arms and really come to terms with that I was the one who got to live. that this life that we live, it's a privilege. And when I really started to take that in,
Starting point is 00:19:57 I felt this tremendous urge to do something with my life, to do something that mattered. At some point, everything's going to go south on you. Everything's going to go south, and you're going to say, this is it. This is how I end. Now you can either accept that or you can get to work. You can't stop. You can't quit.
Starting point is 00:20:26 You can't say I'm a failure. You're not a failure. You're not. You're a wonderful, strong, intelligent youngster. Take advantage of that. Trust in God. Trust in yourself. And T's say, yeah, I'm going to, you know what?
Starting point is 00:20:43 I'm going to take action. Nothing changes. nothing changes, man. And I'm not preaching at you. I'm just, uh, I just want to remind you, because I, you know, I've spent a lot of time in my life sitting around wanting things to change and not being able to make them change and not thinking I could. And I wish somebody had told me that earlier sometimes that in order for something to change, there needs to be change. You cannot stand still because the world moves away from you if you stand still. And there's no stasis, there's only backwards. And so if you're not moving forwards, then you're moving backwards.
Starting point is 00:21:22 How much harder will you work in this off season now to get back to the championship? I'll push myself too exhausted. I'll be thank you for your time. I just, I feel like we sort of focus on right ways and wrong ways too much. And I think it's in a sense sort of scary to just be born and live life. And I understand the idea of kind of grasping onto a particular thought of wanting to kind of feel like you somehow have a handle on the unknown, but you know what? The unknown is the unknown. Every time you have changed, you feel pain. You stepped out of one relationship to another, and you feel pain. You leave one neighborhood to another, and you feel pain. You go from one job
Starting point is 00:22:10 to another, and you feel the fire of transnational. See change as growth. See change as transformation. See change as evolution. See change as necessary. See change as critical. See change as inevitable. Do something. Stop being scared if you have not jumped on the bandwagon of doing exactly what the fuck you want to do, which is skiing for the next three years or working at a job that's not what your parents want or what society wants. Do something. Do something. Stop being scared. And so enough. Enough parents, the kid that's sitting right now at a desk and saw this in a feed and you hate your fucking job. Enough. Stand up.
Starting point is 00:22:55 Get the fuck out of here. Do you live your life? You've got one life. And so if you're not willing to be a fool, then you'll never start anything new. And if you never start anything new, then you won't develop. And so the willingness to be a fool
Starting point is 00:23:07 is the precursor to transformation. And that's the same as humility. And so if you're going to write your destiny, you can do a bad first job. You're going to get smarter as you move forward. When you can learn to do things when you don't want to, when you don't feel like it, when you're tired, when you can learn to push yourself to do them,
Starting point is 00:23:30 that's when the world opens up to you. That's when success knocks at your goal. There will never come a time when you can just happily coast through life. It's hard to stay governed by anxiety. It's hard to be inconsistent. It's hard not to have daily disciplines. It's hard not to believe in yourself. It's hard to be broke.
Starting point is 00:23:50 It's hard to be poor. It's hard. It's all hard. So choose your heart. What I am telling you to do is chase after that version of yourself that you know you could be. What happens when I decide for myself that I'm going to do something different? You've got the gift of life. You have the privilege of being here.
Starting point is 00:24:18 Quit playing small. You were meant to do great things. Nothing changes if nothing changes, man. You just want to win? Or are you absolutely committed? Because when you are committed, when you have made the decision that I am going to win, it's no longer a want, it is a must.
Starting point is 00:24:55 And when something becomes a must, when you become obsessed with what you've been called, to do you will sacrifice people that are committed are willing to make the sacrifices and so actions of the question have you sacrificed everything are you paying the price you've got to pay the price for what you want everything in your future comes out of cost i am acquainted with loss pain lack and famine i want to win now Because winning has everything to do with your mentality, and has everything to do with how you talk, how you walk, how you think, how you overcome.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Winning! It's not just a crown or a trophy. It is the process. It is who I am becoming. And that is how we win. If you are going to hit your goal, if you're going to punch through your targets, you have got to see differently. You have got to think differently.
Starting point is 00:25:58 You are going to have to connect differently. You are going to have to communicate. differently. One day, I just decided I'm gonna raise my standards. A decision. Raise your to the next level. There's always another level. It's time to win. Winning is a non-negotiable. It's what I do. And all of a sudden, wham! No longer is it just what you do. It is who you have become. Because there are some people that win, and then there are winners. There are people who win, When, there are people who lose, and there are people who are winners.
Starting point is 00:26:53 This ain't this something I do. It is who I have become. A winner. Consider this, that all environments do not breathe and nurture a winning spirit. Not everybody grew up in a winning home. Yet, we often witness living examples of greatness springing up by the diversity. Somebody that chooses to defy the odds. Somebody that chooses to be the one in their bloodline.
Starting point is 00:27:33 That changes everything. One thing I know is that we've all been hit with a measure of adversity at some point in our life. You already know what failure feels like. People that are winners win both inner and out. And they see it. not just as an opportunity, but as a birthright. Winners are obsessed with counsel. Winners are obsessed with accountability.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Winning is a habit. Winning is loving. Winning is being moved with compassion, because everybody deserves my best. Winning is wrapped up in the details. That is winning, the mentality. Winning is what I do at home, it's what I do on my job,
Starting point is 00:28:29 it's my creative pursuits. It's my social activity. It's what communities I'm connected to. Are you willing to lose sleep? Are you willing to put the work in? Are you fully persuaded? Are you determined? Real winners, these are the people
Starting point is 00:28:47 who have a positive self-awareness. They are crystal clear about where they are and where they're looking at them. This is the type of person that's got television. They move in the dimension of mindfulness and gratitude. When we unpack the architecture of a winning mentality, we're dealing with someone that is armed and dangerous. This is all I'm thinking about.
Starting point is 00:29:14 That's all I want. That's all I want. That's all I want to hold in my head is a win. Winners are gap closers. These are people that every single day they're beating on their craft and they're closing the gap between where they are and where they're supposed to do. I'm supposed to be here.
Starting point is 00:29:33 I belong here. Have you counted up the cost? It's going to cost you everything to win. The winning isn't just a behavior. Winning is an attitude because you can have good behavior and a bad attitude. And so winning is a behavior, winning is an attitude, winning is a way of living. You're going to have to manifest that thing that you see in your head to hold it in your heads.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Go through, you will grow through. I know you feel stuck in reversion. You may be tired, you may be broken, you may be hurting. But listen, winning has everything to do with your mentality. I am going to win. I've had enough of the loss. I've had enough of the lack. I want to win now.
Starting point is 00:30:42 I want to win. We all know what it's like to lose a job, to lose a family member, to lose money, to lose a position. Some of us have even lost our minds at points in our lives. So we are acquainted with loss. Some of us have lost love towards someone or lost passion or lost focus. Many of you listen to me know what it's like to lose everything. You have another day where you failed yesterday. Where you almost gave up yesterday.
Starting point is 00:31:19 When you almost lost your mind. But there is something in all of us. Something very inborn, interwoven. Something very intrinsic. A distinctive in all of us. A desire to win. What is your DNA? What is your mentality?
Starting point is 00:31:49 What are your goals? In this very moment, you have an opportunity. Sees the opportunity. Wants to win. It's not just an exterior thing. How you overcome conflict. How you navigate a room.
Starting point is 00:32:13 How you navigate relationships. How you manage your time. How you manage your money. It's not just an in thing. It is not just what I want. It is who I am becoming. It's how we win. When all hells broke loose,
Starting point is 00:32:44 Duff, you're sore, you're miserable, might be falling behind your life. Who are you on those days when shit's off Duff? That's the great divide. Those people who get up on those days, when everything's up and still grind, Separated right there. Dreams don't stop people, and then you have the nerve to think or to ask yourself why you're not successful, and you see it happen every day. day. On Monday morning, somebody's gonna get up and they gonna hand in their resignation
Starting point is 00:33:23 going to a new job. On Monday morning, somebody gonna get up lifting more than you. On Monday morning, somebody going to get up running faster than you. On Monday morning, somebody going to get up with their name higher than the draft than you. On Monday morning, somebody's gonna be getting that scholarship that you could have got. That's what, on Monday morning, somebody's gonna get up wrestling to take that test why you worry. Why? There's no difference between them and you. They're not faster, they're not smarter, they're not stronger, they're not better. They just don't quit. You won't out grind me. I get up at 3 o'clock in the morning and do videos. I'll do a video at 3 o'clock
Starting point is 00:33:54 I'll do a video at 2 o'clock. I'm putting out so much dog on content they can't keep up they're smarter than me they better than me I admit I got a GED I ain't the smartest person in the world but I get up and do this for DD you do the work now do the work now and all of this that you could ever want to do for your family your kids your loved ones it's all going to be on a whole other stratosphere mindset thing you in right now is a mindset thing because your challenge your challenge ain't moving your mountain it's not moving you don't feel like you're making any progress you not physically moving when you see everything else around you and other people around you moving you not making progress you're in the test of your will right now because life says it has a little more test for you why are you out there practicing the hot sun when ain't nobody else out there because i'm trying to get it Why are you not clubbing like every time I text you and invites you to go do some fun and cool?
Starting point is 00:35:07 You always study it Because I'm trying to get it Push itself the fight you get up and swing and miss that's progress You get up and you run at what you want with everything you got and you miss That's progress the effort of making the attempt is progress If you feel that you are not in a position to do it Then why show up in the first blitz? Listen to all roads to success, you got to go through pain.
Starting point is 00:35:43 They are success. When you travel down success, you got to go through the road of pain, baby. I told you before, if it was easy, everybody would do it. Forget about it. If you think it's going to be easy, if you think you just go get that business started without new child or trauma, forget about it. You had a baby when you were caught.
Starting point is 00:36:02 If you think it's going to be easy to graduate with a child, You gotta work eight hours a day, you gotta go to school, you think it's gonna be easy, forget about it. Alright, don't even try to be successful, it's a rap. It's not going to be easy, but I want you to feel that pain going through your body, and as pain leads your body, guess what's gonna take his place? Success. Are you prepared to push? Are you prepared to work?
Starting point is 00:36:33 Are you prepared to dig? You got the fight, you got to push. You got to give everything you have because I tell you this weakness won't save you all you need is the power of the strength and a tenacity to give it everything you got You gotta stick that it out man it's another level to this man It's no different because we've messed up because you fell off the wagon you've been on alcohol and drugs and you gave up on life and you dropped out You've been to jail one time, two times, three times, and you really want your dream to happen and you're putting in your work and nothing's happening yet If you keep pushing if you keep giving me all your effort
Starting point is 00:37:25 It will happen. It must happen. It can't do anything but move You can do anything but make progress, but I want you all to understand and saying that word That you how you all have to stop getting caught up in movement as progress for some of of us, the action of making progress is progress. It's time to stay focus. It's time to decide clubs, partying, trying to fit in and socialize, rub elbows with everybody so people can stop calling you weird.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Why are you so anti-social? Because I'm trying to get it. It takes grit, passion, and determination to get to the level of. of where you want to be. You will not outrind me. You won't outrime me. You can be smarter than me.
Starting point is 00:38:22 You won't outrime me. But you got to understand the difference between levels and going beyond them. You can't stay in one place and expect to get to the next place. You can't look at the sky because beyond the sky there's a great big universe. Now what are you going to do about it? I'm going to have the same amount of time, the same advantage, no excuse. They're not going to have an hour more than me, they're not going to have six hours extra than me.
Starting point is 00:38:51 I'm going to grind just as long and I'm going to grind long than I'm going to prepare myself to be successful. Why? One reason. I don't quit. I don't prepare myself in the mindset of quick. And if you don't understand this right now that you're going to have to push harder, you going to fight longer, you're going to have to give in with everything you got.
Starting point is 00:39:05 You're going to have to give up more. You're going to have to not be lazy. You're going to not listen to that. Oh, you. Change your mindset. Change how you see pain. I want you to welcome it. You heard me said before, how comfortable can you be with being uncomfortable?
Starting point is 00:39:21 It is up to you to get the most of everything that you worked so hard for. Understand this and listen to me clearly. You may forget this face, you may forget this voice, you may forget who told you. Forget your pants out. Don't ever forget these words that I'm about to tell you. If you want to be great in this life, you only have to be great. You only have one choice, gentlemen. You only have one choice. You can make choices that just get you remember or you can make choices that ultimately make you a legend. Stay on that basketball court. Stay on that football field. It's grind season, homie. It's not
Starting point is 00:40:17 about today. It's about the future. It's going to be a dog fight. I would love to tell you that on the road to success, everything is going to work out. It's not. It's going to be a dog fight. On a road to success, I lost five aunty cancer. It's a dog fight. In the midst of my business, I lost aunts. I had to go to funerals. We had to get on a plane. We had to drive. We had aunts that are close to my age who died, who didn't have insurance. We had to raise money. A dog fight. I had cousins shot in stores, execution style, shot back in head, back in the head, twice. It's a dog fight. Like you don't see that on YouTube, you don't see that on my TGI. It's a dog fight.
Starting point is 00:41:19 My wife, three years ago, seven legions following the brain. It's a dog fight. It hasn't been easy. It's a dog fight. It hadn't been, the role hadn't been success. Like it just a paved role and like each he goes way. It's been rough. It's been crooked. It's been hard. But I've made up in my mind that I will get a reward for the pain because I go through. I will not stop in the middle of the process. I will not be defeated. I will not be destroyed. I will take everything that happens in my life,
Starting point is 00:41:50 and I will allow the pain to push me to greatness. You will not break me. You will not stop me. You will not defeat me. The only way I lose is if I quit, it's going to be a dog fight. Quit and don't get started. Say no.
Starting point is 00:42:15 Why? Because you do not have eight. Happening me at 20. It didn't happen to me at 30. It happened to me at 40. After I have been through all the ss, I could go through life's day. You finished with all the prices. I said, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:22 I said let me bring on the heat. Then when I went through the pressure and the heat, y'all, I thought it was over. The creator said, now you're ready to get cut? You say you wanted to be great, son? You said you wanted to travel the world. You said you wanted to help people inspire people. Armed forces, let's just pick one. The Navy, for instance.
Starting point is 00:43:58 The first thing they teach you, somebody over here, help me out. You are in the Navy, right? You're going, they're teaching you war, right? What's the first thing they teach you? The first thing they teach you, the very first thing they teach you, is how to respond when you have a jam gun. And number two, how to carry your dead body. Teach you, they don't teach you how to defend yourself, they don't teach you how to swim.
Starting point is 00:44:27 The first thing they teach you is when your gun is jammed. The first thing they teach you is, uh, dead body. how to carry a dead body. And somebody tell me, why would they start you there? That's the worst type scenario. That's what you're not prepared for. That's what you not think. You're not thinking when you go off there to defend yourself
Starting point is 00:44:47 that your gun is going to jam. You're not thinking when you go out there that your boy going to get killed and you've got to drag. You're not thinking that. So listen to me, it's not, it's not hardships that hurt us. It's not my cousin getting shot twice. It's not my cousin's been in 50 years in jail. It's not my eyes.
Starting point is 00:45:04 down to cancer. It's not my wife being diagnosed with seven legions on a brain that will break you. What will break most people that you didn't prepare for that? So when you put all your little goals and all your little dreams together, it's not the thing that broke you that broke you. It was you never even thought about the fact that you could be broken. It's going to be a dog fight. And if you solved, this ain't that you want to get out now. This is where you're like, I quit. But if you're willing to say, I'm not going to quit,
Starting point is 00:45:41 I guarantee you whatever success you want to have, you're going to have it. You will not outbrime you. You won't outbrime me. You can be smarter than me. You won't outbrime me. I get up at 3 o'clock in the morning and do videos. I do a video at 3 o'clock. I'll do a video at 2 o'clock.
Starting point is 00:45:59 I'm putting out so much dog on content. They can't keep up. They're smarter than me. They're better than me. I admit I got a GED. I ain't the smartest person in the world. But I get up and do this for D.D. I do this every day for D.D.
Starting point is 00:46:13 Because I do this every day for D. because of what Dee Dee did for me. I do this for my kids. My daddy wasn't there. I do this for my family. You can't stop me. The reason why some of you could be stopped because you're doing it for yourself.
Starting point is 00:46:28 Guess what happened when you get tired? When you grinding, when you grinding, grinding hurts. Grinding is a sacrifice, grinding cost. When you're grinding and your body tell you you hurt, when you're doing it for you, you stop. You never, you never prepared for worst taste of there. And the reason why E.T. instead here because I'm prepared for it.
Starting point is 00:46:55 If you know anything about me, I still lay on floors. I still eat chips off the floor. I still do some stuff that to most people is crazy. Like, E.E., why would you do that? Because I'm always prepared that we may not live in our house one day. One day something might happen and we might have to go back to that. And if I have to go back to that, it's not going to break me. The thing we covered the most, that for a diamond to be produced,
Starting point is 00:47:20 it must first go through extreme heat. Extreme heat, extreme pressure. Are you here what I'm telling you, for a diamond to be produced? It has to go through extreme pressure, extreme heat. And if that wasn't enough, what makes a diamond a diamond is the cuts. So you are put through,
Starting point is 00:47:46 if you want to be a diamond, you must go through extreme pressure. If you can't take pressure, then you're not a diamond. After you go through all the pressure you thought you could not handle and you think it's over, then they turn on the heat. Eating out trash cans. The worst thing that ever happened is when I went to the hospital and they told me my wife had a chronic illness and she might not be able to walk one day. People say ET asked CJ, it never broke me. Why?
Starting point is 00:48:22 Because I've been broken so much. Defeated so much. I've been disappointed so much in my life. But I know what it feels like and I can handle it. Thank you.
