Lou Gehrig played 2,130 straight games of baseball from 1925 to 1939. All he did to become great was show up every single day. Do you think out of 2,130 games he was never hurt? You think he was healthy every single game? You think he felt his best every single game? You think he didn't have no family problems in those 2,130 games? that just everything in his life was going great. Nope, but he made a commitment.

Commitment means staying loyal to what you say you were going to do long after the mood you said in left. Meaning when you don't feel like getting up in the morning, you get your butt up in the morning, you do what you said you were going to do anyway. Meaning when you don't feel like sacrifice, you get your butt up and you sacrifice anyway.

Meaning when you don't feel like being dedicated to it, you stay your butt dedicated anyway because you understand what the process will go on to produce later on in your life. Winners do consistently what amateurs do occasionally. Amateurs, the people that want to get big but never get big or want to grow but never grow, the people that run their mouth, yapping, jaw jacking, they never seem to get what they want.

It's because they're doing it occasionally. The winners out there, the top 1%, the lions. You know what they're doing? They're doing it consistently. Greatness comes from doing mundane shit that average people can't keep doing. It's not all fucking sexy and fired up. It's staying consistent doing the shit you need to do over and over and over and over. I practice so much that when I get up and do the big gigs and stuff that count, I lick it.

Why? Because I practice over and over and over and over and over and over. So when I get up there and do my thing, there's no errors because I've been so consistent that my body's like, boom, it's showtime. This is what we do. This is how we do it. And so if you would learn to be consistent. If you would learn to have a little consistency that your momentum would kick in and take you to places you never thought you could go. We went from the backyard to the world.

Why consistency? I need you to grind. Just be consistent. Wash the dishes and wash the dishes 100%. Mop the floor and mop it 100%. Go to work and do your work. Don't just go to work when you feel like it. Go to work every single day.

Work on it every day. Even when you're down and out. Even when you're not feeling it. do it. Why? People who do stuff consistently and on time, they get the same consequences. They get paid. They get rewarded. When you say you're going to do something you have to do until you damn die. That's the secret. Every freaking day. Not some days, not five days a week, seven days a week. The only people you know and you know their names are people that execute and they're consistent. People don't want to tell you the truth no more.

They want to make you feel good. I don't care about making you feel good. I want to give you the truth. You don't train and get better? If you don't become a better version of yourself, guess what? Every single one of you are screwed. Life does not reward people who wait to see what happens. What you put in, you will get out.

Because you can think about it, you can wish for it, you can hope for it, you can think all about it, all as long as you want. But unless you get out, every single motherfucking day, and put in the work inch by inch by motherfucking inch, you will never get there. So while you sit there, start thinking that no one is going to fuck with me. Start thinking that no one is going to throw me off course. Start thinking I don't give a, get the world fucking ends.

I'm achieving this mother fucking goal. Take pride in doing the harsh nobody else will do. Take pride at working out in the elements when no one else is fucking willing to do that. Take pride in doing the work that your fucking co-work. Don't do. Take pride in training yourself in ways that other people won't. Those are the people that win Those are the people that run shit. It doesn't just happen. You have to fucking make it happen This shit is hard. It takes a long time. That's not the old-fashioned way. That's not the hard way

That's not the more inconvenient way. It's not the long way. It's not the tough way. It's just a fucking way. You're gonna have to fucking earn it. I will never quit. I will always be consistent. I will never slow down and I will always come back. Nobody wants to stand in front of somebody that won't stop fighting. That's the dangerous power of an underdog. Even you get knocked down, you get back up, and you get back up, you get back up, and you continue to throw shit against the wall. Because you believe in the purpose, you find value in it. There's the choices you make on every fucking wreck, every set when the pain says a load. You say goodbye. What are you doing? How bad do you want it? Are you already seeing yourself stronger from it before you enter it?

You had the value in the vision up here. Before you pull it, you put it, you put it. You're Why the effort and the work in there? That notion, if you had that belief, will bear the fruits of your conviction.
