I'm speaking to the people who want more, the people who want to be the fucking pinnacle, the people who want to be accomplished, the people who want to make a fucking difference. You guys are going to have to go all the fucking in. Make a 100% commitment to give the best effort you've ever given to outwork, out improve, outst strategize, outlast, like never before. You can't be motivated anymore. You don't need others to motivate you. You have to be self-motivated. You can't listen to your mom.

You can't listen to your dad. You can't listen to your friends. You can't listen to the fucking internet. You can't stick your fucking toe in the pool and say, oh, you know, I don't know. This kind of feels weird. No, you have to dedicate every fucking breath, every fucking ounce of energy,

and every fucking thought and effort that you possibly have in your heart to becoming what it is you want to be. If you really want to make an impact, you're going to get a lot of judgment. You're going to get a lot of hate. People are going to just dis on you. People are going to say, who do you think you are? If no one thinks you're crazy, you're not yet operating to the outer limits of your potential. I actually appreciate my haters.

My haters keep me grinding. I tell them all the time, if you want to pay attention to success, watch me. A lion never negotiates when an hyena. He ain't waking up in the morning and saying, I'm going to go hang out with some hyenas. He ain't going to the same class. where he knows the hyenas don't like him anyway, because he don't concern himself with the conversations of hyenas. A eagle flies at a certain altitude,

and the only other bird flies at that altitude is another eagle. So if he find himself flocking with pigeons, he may be flying too low. See, sometimes we're asking ourselves, why my friends treating me like this, you're hanging out with pigeons. Why are he talking about me like this?

Man, you hanging out with pigeons. hanging out with pigeons. Eagles ain't got time to gossip. Kings don't gossip. Fools party. Kings celebrate. You got to come out your comfort zone because your comfort zone is the deadliest place you will ever be. You should never feel comfortable. You should be happy and dissatisfied. Your ability to go all in, and when I say all in, I mean all the f*** in. Every moment, every minute, every hour, every day, every week, every month, every fucking year, for as long as it fucking takes for you to get where you're going, you should be consumed with that path. If you want to show me you want to win that bad, pack your calendar.

You pack your calendar, that's how you show the world that you want to win, because everything is based off of activity. It's very hard when you go up against somebody that shows up every flipping day. day where you sit and say, take a damn week off, go on vacation. Why don't you slow down for a day or a month or two months or three months? Please, let me catch up. Because hungry people, they're just more urgent than everybody else. If I need to learn a skill set today, I'm going to go by the course today. I'm going to get better at it today. Not tomorrow, not this afternoon, not later on tonight, today. What you do at night matters. What you do in the morning matters. What you do

when your friends are out drinking matters what you do on saturday matters what you do on sunday matters the success clock doesn't give a what day it is it's going to run no matter what and you guys pretend like you can work seven eight ten hours a day and then spend the rest of your time and off and you think you're going to be somewhere and you're not and you're surrounded by people who enable this thought process your good friends your family people who have accepted mediocrity as a life oh you don't need to work on weekends. Why do you work so hard at night? Why do you get up so early and do that? Why do you train so hard? Why are you reading all these books when we're out drinking beer? When you're obsessed, they're like, why can't you be so crazy? Why can't you be satisfied? Why do you always

get things so perfect? Why do you spend so much time here? When you're obsessed, people think you're nuts. Anybody ever tell you, hey look, just be satisfied with what you got. No, don't believe them. Get them away from you. You should never be satisfied with what you got. You should double your business. Triple it. Because the attempt to get more makes you into something better. well so if you're thinking that it's just going to be a walk in the park you're dead fucking wrong you have to give it every fucking bit of effort and energy you have to pull it off and you have to work harder than everyone else work while they sleep learn while they party save while they spend and live like they dream
