But today I am going to be controversial with you.

Kind of, not really, not a ton. But what I'm going to do is I'm going to... Some of you are going to get maybe a little bit pissed off with me about this one because I'm going to be talking about your problems. And I'm going to tell you that you have no problems. No matter what's happening in your life, no matter how bad it is, no matter how crazy it is, you have no problems. You are going through a human experience, most likely. Because we all quote unquote have problems. If your finances are not where you want them to be, how can you fix it? If your family is not where you want it to be, how can you fix it? If your job or your career is not where you want it to be, how can you fix it?

If your school is not where you want it to be, how can you fix it? If your relationship and everything else in life is not where you want it to be, how can you fix it? If your relationship and everything else in life is not where you want it to be, how can you fix it? You don't have problems. You don't have financial problems or career problems or school problems or relationship problems or family problems. You don't have problems. You just have situations that could be looked at in a different way or treated in a different way. that could be looked at in a different way or treated in a different way. You personally can fix them. And if you can't fix them, you can fix the way that you are looking at them to overcome them. And you have to learn to take control. You have to learn to take control of the situation. I've spoken about, you know, you've heard me talk about taking control.

You've heard me talking about how you're the captain of your own ship. But the question is, if you've heard me say it, have you actually done it? Have you actually realized in your head that I am in control of every single thing that happens to me? And I am in control of how I view everything that happens to me, right? Because we all know people who have come from terrible circumstances, but somehow they overcome it. And the reason why is because they don't see their quote unquote problems as problems. They see these quote unquote problems as things that they need to either fix or adjust their mindset on what is going on in the situation.

You need to take control. You need to have no problems and stop seeing them as problems and stop seeing them as challenges, but see them as opportunities to grow and become better. Stop whining about how you don't have stuff or that you have problems. Whining does nothing for you. Everybody has problems. I've got problems. You've got problems. We've all got problems. But guess what? What we do is we see them as opportunities to grow and get better. And I know some of you are listening and you can't agree with me, but try. Try it out. Try to fix it. If somebody, if you're in a bad relationship, try to fix it. If you're in a bad relationship, try to fix it. If you're in a bad financial situation, you're completely in debt and you're struggling to pay

the bills, fix it. Fix it. Don't complain about the fact and then come home and drink a beer and watch TV. Fix it. That's all you have to do. You're in control of it. Things don't get better unless you get better first. Your situation will not get better unless you get better first. You cannot be the person that overcomes these situations unless you work on that person, which is you. You need to sharpen the saw. You need to become better. You need to read more. You need to figure out some... Some of you don't need to read more. You just need to conquer your... Just figure out a way to fix your quote-unquote problems. Also, for your problems, put them in their place. What I mean by put them in their place, you might think that you have terrible

things going on. Your life is horrible. Everything is in shambles, but I guarantee there's somebody else that has it worse. And it's not me trying to make your life seem, your problems and all of those seem insignificant. But what I'm trying to tell you is that you need to put them in their place. If you have terrible financial situation and you're struggling to pay the bills, situation, and you're struggling to pay the bills, you know what? I would take a Saturday this week, not kidding, take a Saturday, go donate your time to a soup kitchen. Go donate your time and start hanging out with people who have it worse than you. Don't become friends with them and hang out with them on the weekends, but go to it and put your problems into perspective. Put them into their place. Go donate your time for people

who don't have it as good as you. Here's the thing. People who have quote unquote problems, their real problem is this. They don't practice gratitude. Let that one sink in. If you think you have problems, you might not have problems.

You might not just be practicing gratitude. You might not be looking at all of the good and you're looking at all of the bad. You might have a financial situation, but you might be looking at just that and not noticing everything else. Here's the deal. What you focus on is what will grow. What you put your time into and your energy into and your mindset into will grow. If you are thinking that you have a financial problem, your body is at a financial problem frequency. You are at a poor frequency. If you don't know what I'm talking about, go back and listen to my episode on the law of attraction, where I talk about how humans actually send a frequency out. You are tuned into the wrong station. You are tuned into the poor station. Everybody knows someone who talks about how poor they are all the time. And then 10 years later, they're still freaking poor. And the reason why is because they've been

tuned into that station for so long. You need to tune out of it if you're in there. If you're in a family or job or career or school or relationship or financial problem, you're in that problem's frequency. You're attracting it into your life because you're not practicing gratitude for everything that you do have. You're not working to fix the problem. So what you need to do to overcome these quote unquote problems, number one is to practice gratitude. Look around at everything that you have and be grateful for it. And you might look around and go, man, I don't really have a whole lot. I'm sitting in my apartment and all I have is just a mattress on the floor and negative $5 in my bank account.

And then you realize that if you were to go to some third world country, there's people that are literally starving and sitting there starving. And they can't do anything about it because they're in a third world country. You have to realize that you can overcome it. You're not thinking grateful. You're thinking, well, basically ungrateful. Problems is what you're thinking of. So the first thing is to practice gratitude. Find something you can be grateful for. How about the fact that you are breathing, that you are cognizant enough to listen to this episode and to digest it and to process it? Guess what? When you're at rock bottom, there's no way to go but up. Some of the greatest success stories started at rock bottom. Why can't you be one of them? So you have no problems. The first thing is to practice gratitude. And the second thing

is to fix them. Fix them. That's it. Practice gratitude and fix your problems. Realize you're in control and that you can master your mindset. And by mastering your mindset, you can conquer your problems no matter what type of problems that they are because somebody else has done it in the world. And if somebody else can do it, I guarantee you, you can as well. So with that being said, go out and conquer your problems. Go out and just figure out a way to be grateful for something today. So with that being said, I appreciate you. Please share this episode with somebody and I hope that you have an amazing day.
