I love this question which is what would
you do if you weren't
afraid and I just I love thinking about
that when I'm thinking about big life
decisions like what would I do if I
weren't afraid and it's usually like the
big one the the bigger thing that I
really want to do but I'm afraid to do
it it's like that's what I should
[Music]
do man would not be man if his dreams
did not exceed his grasp
[Music]
how committed are you to really do
something about your
life it's not knowledge which is the
problem it's not inspiration which is
the
problem the problem is that after you
have all this
information how are you going to
transform it how are you going to
integrate it
into your 24-hour
day if you haven't gotten what you want
then you're not worthy of it period and
that's okay now you can admit that you
suck and improve better to know you're
bad for a season than pretend you're
good for a lifetime because you're not
as good as you think you are you're not
struggling from imposter syndrome you're
a student and pretending to be a
teacher understand what the
producers so when you attack something
you realize when you're going through
your hardest times and you tell yourself
wait a minute I have to go through this
because it's a part of the
process you have to do it and you have
to do it now so stop thinking about it
stop dreaming about it stop researching
every aspect of it start doing it that
is the first step to make it happen get
after it and get after it here and
now
reminder that if you want to be
exceptional you're going to be different
from everyone else that's What Makes You
exceptional you can't fit in and also be
exceptional both have discomfort when
you fit in you have internal conflict
because you're not being 100% you when
you're exceptional you have external
conflict because everyone sees you as
different pick one when your friends
start to say you've changed remember
it's because they don't know how to say
you've
grown
that version of yourself that lives
inside of your heart that nobody else
even knows about because you're too
afraid to talk about it because you're
afraid everybody's going to laugh at you
that's the thing you're supposed to
become whatever that is that's what
you're supposed to become you need to
listen to that if you're going to step
out from what you have always been into
something new you have to be prepared to
cut all of the old out because all of
the old will constantly be in your ear
chirping making you doubt making you
question making you slow down making you
hesitate and all of those qualities will
keep you from becoming that thing that
you're trying to become we talked a
little bit about
purpose a lot of that is just working
hard to try to be who you say you are we
all project ourselves a certain way but
when rubber hits the road and you look
at yourself in the mirror who are you
and are you living the life that you're
telling people you're
living you got to be willing to be
uncomfortable to get comfortable you got
to be willing to be scared you got to be
willing to go into the rooms that people
don't want to go into and you got to be
willing to deal with the word no for a
period of time because the yeses will
come make you hold you
account I think it's just giving
yourself permission to suck it's giving
yourself permission to be unhappy it's
giving yourself permission to not
achieve while you do for a long period
of time it's giving yourself permission
to lose friends it's giving yourself
permission to do things that's different
than people in your Social Circle or
what your age group are doing giving
yourself
permission to be an exception so that
you can become
[Music]
exceptional if you don't put it into an
action plan get going that's the key
some people are ever learning but they
don't put it into action they don't
really take the action it's like the man
who keeps bringing materials to the
building site and never builds anything
he keeps bringing in the sand and the
gravel and the windows and the doors and
he just Stacks up all these suppli lies
but he never builds anything you've got
to do something with what you've learned
you've got to take action you've got to
get
going and anything you want
good you can
have so claim it work hard to get it
when you get it reach back pull someone
else
up old saying that there's three types
of people on a ladder one at the bottom
one at the middle and one at the top
which one is the best to be the one
that's still
climbing talking about your goals and
talking about your Ambitions and your
talking about your dreams talking about
anything overthinking is the enemy of
executing as far as I'm concerned the
best way of actually making progress
towards them is cutting it down to a
day-by-day scale and ensuring that every
day your goal is to simply take another
step toward
[Music]
it go out there and build something do
something do something so at the end of
the day when I close the book on your
story your chapters meant
something almost all the meaning that
you will need to get you through the
hard times of your life is going to be a
consequence of adopting responsibility
not of Rights and impulsive action but
that isn't where you're going to find
the meaning that keeps you sustained
through the storms of
life I'm astounded by how many people
want to be spectacular in life but also
want to be normal by being normal You
Are by definition aiming for average
normal people get normal results
exceptional people get exceptional
results you literally can't do what
everyone else does and expect to not get
what everyone else has got by doing what
everyone else does you guarantee average
[Music]
results in order for something new to
come something old must
go and that old can sometimes
mean let go of what what you know until
now empty the
Cup start from the
beginning do you run away from something
do you run towards something failure is
a compelling protagonist towards
achieving your goals who failure be
scared be very scared of failure and you
will succeed it say there is no magic
pill one day or day
one you keep that in your mind keep keep
that keep that in your mind if you've
been slacking on some kind of something
that you want to start doing and that
you know is going to be good for you if
you do
start in your life in any given moment
the strongest dream in that moment wins
that moment I am a very powerful
dreamer if you want to attract what you
want you've got to see yourself already
with it you've got to understand that
you've already got it use your
imagination see yourself already in
possession of the good you desire that
will flip your mind onto a specific
frequency it's on that frequency that
good you desire is going to start coming
toward you and you will start moving
toward it you've got to see yourself now
already with it and know it's only a
period of time until you moving toward
it and it moving toward you and you
become one with
it someone will save you but it's you
you future you the better you the person
that you've been waiting to
become when you make up your mind to be
defined by a vision of the future
instead of the memories of the past all
you have to do is make a decision and
you just got to have a clear intent on
what you want and so learn study and
then begin to dream or begin to build a
model of what it could look like and
don't let go of it and begin to
experience the emotions of how you feel
when it
happens the heart of confidence is
action it's the willingness to try and
all you need is to know that if you try
you're not going to die you're just
going to learn something and when you
learn something it removes a little bit
of the insecurity so that it makes it
slightly easier to try again projecting
yourself forward to see what are the
consequences of failing what are the
consequences of stopping is about as
powerful of a motivation strategies as I
can think of you know because what
you're doing is you're trying to
optimize right now to stop the
discomfort but what you're going to pay
for that in is shame and guilt and
regret long term so what you need to be
able to do is bundle all of that up that
is as yet unfelt but will last for way
way way longer you know the future is is
much longer than now that's right the
future is going to extend out up until
the day that you die and the now is just
for now and you get to look back and you
look back with Pride and Glory what
would you look back with shame and guil
when you don't feel like doing something
like you do it anyway you do it because
you have to and you have to do it for
your future self you know you have to
look back you have to look at yourself
in 5 6 7 years and be the person that
you would want to look back and be proud
of because now what you're doing you're
doing your future self a
favor this isn't a game this is your
life wake up it's time to make your life
into a highlight reel you're the main
character not anybody else stop thinking
this world is against you you're in
control you get to choose what happens
next the wait is over because the time
is
now you go higher you go even more alone
why because nobody is willing anymore to
invest their energy in going higher
because it's becoming more difficult
they say ah it's it's already okay here
why you still want to move up there the
air is getting sinner over there so that
means along this way the higher you want
to go the more likely you're going to
walk alone this is the next
[Music]
thing
[Music]
[Music]
you have noing idea how great you really
are because you are using such minimal
of what you have everybody has the
ability to do it but they just don't
want to there's no hacks bro it's you
against you the problem is you and you
don't want to fix it the
hardships the
losses they make the good times way
better first of all everybody you're
never starting over you're always
starting from
experience this is so important for you
to understand just because you got laid
off just because you've ended a
relationship you're not starting from
scratch you have all the experiences
good and bad in your life that you can
now use to reinvent and
reimagine what the next chapter of your
life looks like
next what are you going to do how bad do
you want it what are you willing to
sacrifice and what are you willing to
give up to find every bit of who you are
as a human being delusion is only
delusional when you don't accomplish the
goal of making your delusion the
reality
losers let it happen winners make it
happen losers see thunderstorms when see
rainbows losers see icy streets winners
put on their ice skates losers take
chances winners make
choices it's all in the way you choose
to
think you might be frustrated you might
be spinning your wheels you might be
ready to
quit but you also might be one day from
that one
moment every morning every day of Our
Lives we have choices to make you have
the choice to stay in bed to say forget
it I'm not going to work out today or
forget it I'm not going to work hard
today you always have a choice every
single day of your life the universe
rewards resilience and the signs of it
are all over the world you just have to
know where to look and what to look at
become that become that River on that
rock over time you can achieve any goal
if you stick with
it man you got to learn how to dig deep
in your life things are going to happen
in your life parents dying animal dies a
lover a wife a good friend you dis side
when you don't want to fail anymore you
wake up one morning and go you know what
these are all things I cannot
control doubt is such a strange thing I
mean it's um you know there'll be times
where you succeed and there times that
you
fail so waste wasting your time doubting
whether you're going to be successful or
not is pointless it is and you just put
one FR in front of the other you control
what you can't control and then you see
what the outcome is right if you win
great you're going to have to wake up
the next day and do the journey over
again if you lose sucks but you're going
to have to wake up the next day and do
the journey all over again
anyway you're not going to get around
the rise and fall and the rise and fall
endure when it's time to endure enjoy
when it's time to enjoy you know but
you're not going to get around the ups
and downs of that it's not because I'm
weak it's not any of that it's like
that's what life
and if you stop right now all you've
done is guarantee that you never reach
that moment when things get hard it's
very easy to question what you're doing
it's very easy to start looking for A
New Path it's very easy to quit and
that's why most people do it no matter
how much you're struggling no matter how
long you've been working keep
[Music]
going
we're all a work in progress growth has
no end your story is still being written
you're the writer and the narrator
there's no limits to self-improvement
because no one can ever truly reach a
state of perfection everything around us
is always changing and so we must evolve
too don't ever make the mistake of
thinking that you're finished it doesn't
matter how far you still need to go all
that matters is that you're still
trying
it's not just about what do you want
it's especially about what are you
willing to sacrifice for this this is
the question what type of sacrifices are
you willing to go through what type of
suffering are you willing to take and
based on that it determines what can you
reach if you have a dream if you have a
goal in life that you want to accomplish
I can tell you hard work dedication
determination take small steps and
sooner or later they will continue to
grow and grow and grow into bigger
accomplishments believe in yourself stay
strong stay focused no matter what the
bad times don't last forever if someone
tells you you can't you prove to them
that you can if someone fires you from a
job when one door closes another door
opens always believe in yourself don't
try to be like anyone else leave your
ideas to the fullest and always believe
that no matter what happens in your life
it's for a greater
purpose like I can't say this enough
stop
waiting do not waste your life waiting
worrying or wishing for things to change
you got to want it enough to do the work
your dreams have a brick path that will
get paved every single day one brick at
a
time how many times have you told
yourself you're going to do it how many
times have you told yourself tomorrow
how many times have you told people what
you were going to do you know where all
that talking has gotten youing nowhere
you have not moved the needle once I
know it kind of feels like you're doing
it when you talk about doing it when you
think about doing it when you plan to do
it but the reality is you have not done
anything so when are you going to do it
at what point does the talking stop and
the action begin if it's at any other
point than right now you are not serious
you don't want to do it you want to keep
indulging in the that got you in the
position where you want to change
instead of just actually changing nobody
who is that serious about change knowing
how hard it is to change Waits until
tomorrow to do it because they don't
want to spend another second being
anything other than what they could
be consistency is having a goal and when
you wake up that day and you don't feel
like it you still do what you told
yourself you was going to do that's all
consistency is it is it is it is the
days you don't feel like doing it and
you realize that I am where I am because
of other people's sacrifice I got to get
up and make it happy even though I don't
want to get up and make it Happ make
your future dream a present fact by
assuming the feeling of the wish
fulfilled so whatever it is that you
would like to experience in your life
you must be able to feel it so live in
the feeling of being the one you want to
be and that you shall be every
feeling makes a subconscious
impression and unless it is counteracted
by a more powerful feeling of an
opposite nature it must be
expressed greatest people on the planet
have suffered the most suffering is not
bad I'm suggesting suffering is awesome
the the ego runs from suffering because
it's the death of the ego but I believe
pain difficult times failure
loss is purification and preparation for
personal
heroism you are not your
losses one misstep doesn't Define who
you are if you've lost or failed so what
stop being the victim feeling sorry for
yourself isn't going to get you any
closer to your goal it's not a loss if
you learn something so take
accountability for the damage that was
done and just keep moving
[Music]
forward sometimes the biggest fear you
have is that you failed you made too
many mistakes
and as a result of making tooo many
mistakes that you don't deserve a second
chance you don't have to end this life
with regret you don't have to sit at
your bedside and wonder what could have
been you can change right now you can
change the direction of your life you
can change the direction of every
relationship but it begins with your
relationship with
you
your presence on this planet is no
accident and you are absolutely here for
a purpose you've been given a gift it's
your Genius and it's intended to bring
joy to your life and to lift the lives
of those around
[Music]
you I want you to understand this if you
want to bring out the best in others
start with the mirror so many people are
trying to persuade others trying to
influence others trying to bring out the
best in others but they're not starting
with themselves it all starts with you
it starts there because when you bring
out the best than you you are very
contagious if a person would sit down
and let their body relax totally relax
and then start to visualize in their
mind see themselves the way they want to
see themselves see how you'd like to
live your life see yourself living it
that way okay now understand that that's
a picture in your mind when when you
pick up a book the book is nothing but a
picture that an author has painted in
words dream my painting and then I paint
my dream we become what we think about
now it may be fantasy at first it might
even appear to us as being a lie M but
if you read it often enough you'll start
to believe
[Music]
it listen to me
man you have a great life in front of
you but your great life is in front of
of you it's not behind
you you must come to peace and come to
terms with everything that you've ever
faced there are things that have
fortified a different aspect of your
life because of trauma that happened as
a
child you you got to be willing to let
go of that and so you can embrace the
adult that you are now you cannot get
rescued by anyone but
you because if other people grab and
reach in and try to pull you out you'll
defend the small child you were that was
taken advantage
of but if you can look into your past
and look at your life and realize that
the times you you were most vulnerable
and there was no one there to protect
you that was not a time where you were
made a victim that was a time where you
became
Victorious you embrace the challenge
it's a test it's a way to prove yourself
it's a way to toughen yourself
[Music]
up we can compare the attitude to the
aperture of a lens when you are fearful
that aperture tends to close down giving
you a n narrow perspective on the world
if you take in less you have less to
fear but as your mind closes down you
miss seeing opportunities and coming up
with new ideas but if that lens opens up
and expands suddenly you can see all
kinds of combinations and connections
out there in the world that nobody else
is seeing because of their fearful
closed lens the way they're looking at
the world in this case the chaos of the
world is not something to fear but
something to exploit this is the source
of all creative
[Music]
thinking that's why you got to work on
yourself cuz life will send you some
curves you cannot
anticipate whatever you do you want to
develop technical
Mastery you want to be the best at what
you do you want to master it see part of
of of self motivation is you've got to
find something that gives you a strong
sense of competence when you become
known for that you develop a reputation
of being good at doing that you set some
high personal standards for yourself
you're not competing with anybody else
you're just unfolding yourself to be the
best person that you could
be I've looked in the mirror every
morning and asked myself if today were
the last day of my life what I want to
do what I am about to do today and
whenever the answer has been no for too
many days in a row I know I need to
change something because almost
everything all Pride all fear of
embarrassment or failure these things
just fall away in the face of death
leaving only what is truly important
remembering that you are going to die is
the best way I know to avoid the Trap of
thinking you have something to lose
there is no reason not to follow your
heart
this is the Instinct that says you've
had
enough this is the Instinct that says
you you've you've given it your best
shot you can you can stand down you can
back
off you can take a
KN this is the Instinct that
says you can rest
now do not listen to that instinct do
not
listen that instinct is a liar and wants
to bring you
down that's the Instinct that's a
defense
mechanism wants to give you an out place
to run
to little little place of
sympathy you see the path that you're
own is up to
you put one foot in front of the other
and start marching start chasing down
with can be stop looking behind you you
are evolved those are in your past and
there is nothing you need there's a
period at the end of that chapter but
this
chapter this is your comeback
[Music]
year this is your comeback moment this
is when you get up this is your moment
in Rocky when you've been knocked down
10 times but you still won't quit this
is where you get up and you fight and
you'll get up before the counter
10 you're not a quitter you're the
winner imagine that you're in a movie
and imagine the movie begins
now and you're the hero of the movie
what would that guy
do what would that guy do right now
because you
are people struggle to do things a
lot and the path of the exceptional
person is one of an exception which
means that you are not with other
people don't let other people tell you
what you can and can't do if you feel
like you should do it go for it life's
not perfect not everything has to work
out but the window of opportunity is
getting smaller every day nobody sees
the world like you see it so just do
what feels right today and worry about
the rest
tomorrow we all get exactly the same
amount of time exactly now here's
something
interesting the sand in the bottom of
the glass represents the past the sand
in the top of the glass represents the
future you have no idea what's in the
top of the glass you only know what's in
the bottom of the glass the only thing
we've got anything to do with is what's
right here in the center right
now everything else is an illusion it's
a message God if we want to enjoy more
of Life we've got to give everything
we've got right
[Music]
now it's not what happens that
determines your future it's what you do
about what
happens Direction determines
destination
when you make mistakes they add up they
add up one mistake compounds and leads
to another which leads to another and
they can lead you to a downward spiral
of
Destruction here's the thing you know
what else adds
up the positive
things the good moves the small
sacrifices that you make to do things
right
so put in the daily effort let that be
your reward reward yourself feel
gratification from knowing that you move
the needle even just a little bit and
whatever it is you want to do isn't
going to happen in one day you have work
to
do you cannot change your life unless
you go inside first you figure out who
you are what your own wisdom is telling
you to do and you start to actually
actually believe it and follow
it I think when you're on the start path
you can't look at the outcome as The
only positive cuz you will never make it
the positive frame that I've always used
is thinking about who I was becoming as
the asset that I was building so in real
time whenever I finished a Long Day's
Work I was becoming more like the type
of person who could work for 5 years
without reward and that would be part of
the story I would someday tell
let's say you want something really bad
and you keep trying and you keep trying
and you keep trying and on the 10th try
you don't get it still and then you say
ah okay it's it must be a sign that I
need to stop doing what I need to do but
what if you didn't know that on your
11th try you would have made it you
would have made it happen and got what
you wanted to get so I feel like
persistance is important because if you
really truly love something and you
truly believe you should just do it for
the love and you don't get to where
you're going you still doing something
love so
visualize it but also feel it like feel
yourself
[Music]
there close your
eyes smile to yourself and feel
yourself
there and believe me when I say you can
manifest
that the only people that criticize you
for trying to be exceptional are those
that have already accepted the fact that
they're going to be mediocre forever
they look at you trying to better your
life as an attack on them because they
know they're not doing what they should
be doing they know they're not trying as
hard as they can and they know that they
should be a much better version of
themselves than they are you and I both
know that you're just trying to better
yourself and it has nothing to do with
them but they don't see it that way they
feel they have to defend themselves
because they see you doing something
they know they should be doing so when
they make comments or make fun of you or
try to make it seem like it's about them
understand that it is about them it's
about how they feel about themselves and
that is not your problem when's it going
to be when is it going to be that you
are finally not full of sh make the
change that you need to make become the
person you need to become this is about
becoming a person that can control their
external environment and make decisions
that serve them no matter how hard those
decisions might be no matter how
inconvenient those decisions might be
that's the only way you're going to
solve this problem long
term Kobe Bryant was not interested in
winning championships he was
obsessed and Obsession comes in the
small details that nobody pays attention
to listen to people they going to tell
you that you can't do it don't listen to
haters don't listen to naysayers don't
listen to people that give you advice
that tell you to slow down or you
shouldn't do it or you can't can't do it
or the time's not right or any of those
other things those are dream Steelers
they were sent to you to see if you'll
overcome them they were sent to you to
test your resiliency and if you can
overcome that if you just discard all
that stuff and you get clear on those
other things you've got a really good
chance of doing something great with
your life and just remember what you
were put here to do you're not a mistake
you're not here by an accident you were
born to do something great with your
life you were born to make a difference
with your life this is a
fact
most people wonder why they don't get
the opportunity
coach why won't you put me in the game
why won't you give me an
opportunity the reason why is because
the word give no one is going to give it
to you whatever it is you want in life
you have to desire it more than you want
anything you got to believe that it's
your Birthright you got to be hungry you
got to look at everyone's competition
and welcome and embrace the fact that
you must fight for it if it's given to
you you will think of it as some kind of
entitlement but if you battle for it
it's a victory it's
earned because in the absence of purpose
fulfillment significance we kind of feel
like every day is Groundhog Day every
day is a day where ah I'm not really
moving forward I don't have a sense of
purpose there's this like low low
undertone of anxiety and depression and
overwhelm and you just feel like you
don't really matter and that is not the
best way to to live as a human man I'm
telling you that right now like we are
put on this planet you are put on this
planet to do something big to do
something great to impact lives to be an
Agent of Change how does a man win at
life over and over again when another
man continues to struggle and just has
these failures to launch well it's
simple it's the athlete mindset versus
The Spectator
mindset
begin this is where it
begins
in the
darkness before the sun and the birds
and the world every
day when the alarm sounds it's
time
rise despite fatigue and
soreness curse the warmth of the bed
curse the comfort of the pillow fight
the temptation of weakness get up and go
do it quickly without thought do not
reach reason with weakness you cannot we
must only take action get
up and
[Applause]
go and then the one shows up the one one
person changes a family tree forever in
my family I'm the one and it wasn't
because I wanted it or I hoped for
it I fought for it I want to win I want
to fight for my family I want my mom and
dad proud of me I want my kids proud of
me I want me proud of me I want to look
in the mirror and be happy with the man
I look back at that he gave it
everything that he went for
it extraordinary accomplishments come
from doing ordinary things for
Extraordinary periods of time working
out and doing reps is not extraordinary
it's the fact that you do it for 20
straight years nothing about that is
extraordinary it's the dedication to
doing it over and over and over and over
again despite feeling like there's
better opportunities despite people
approaching you with new and exciting
things but saying that you're committed
to the original Vision you had and that
not the action itself but your
commitment to the action is what makes
someone extraordinary not the thing
itself and to me that made being
extraordinary
possible at some point you're going to
have the courage at some point you're
going to have the confidence and it's
total [ __ ] and so there are so many
people in the world and and and you know
you may be watching this right now and
you have these incredible ideas and what
you think is missing is motivation and
that's not true because the way that our
minds are wired and the fact about human
beings is that we are not designed to do
things that are uncomfortable or scary
or difficult our brains are designed to
protect us from those things cuz our
brains are trying to Keep Us Alive and
in order to change in order to build a
business in order to be the best parent
the best spouse to do all those things
that you know you want to do with your
life with your work with your dreams
you're going to have to do things that
are difficult uncertain or
scary decision making is the force that
shapes
Destiny how many of you can think of the
decisions that you
made years ago one or two decisions 5 10
15 years ago that that decision you mean
like real at the time but that decision
was one of the most important decisions
of your life You' made a different
decision there you go a different
direction your life would be completely
be different to
[Music]
that you got to decide in this life
whether you want to be entitled or you
want to earn it if it's entitlement
you're looking for you'll never be
remembered in history you'll be the
person that could have been should have
been and could have been if somebody had
given you but you don't have a right to
be given anything earn it take it take
control of your life take Dominion
I don't care how good you are on
anything you don't have discipline you
ain't
nobody the reason most people fail is
because they give up what they want most
for what they want
now if you're going through a really
hard time the dark days eventually pass
and clear
away and the Sun comes back and so
whatever you're going through know that
this is temporary and that soon the Sun
is going to come out
again there's a time to be born and
there's a time to die so I want you to
know you're going to die and there's
nothing you could do about it but what I
would hope that you would do is I hope
you would
live I got to say no matter how hard it
may be no matter how impossible it may
seem no matter how much this year sucks
I'm still going to get the greatest me
out of this I'm still going to step up
to the plate and some of you right now
are thinking tomorrow
you know how many people said tomorrow
that took their talents to the
grave and I say that that the reason
that we don't even Explore the
possibility of what to do is because
subconsciously we don't believe that it
can happen for us and we don't believe
that we deserve
it so here's what I'm
suggesting how much time do you spend
working on
you how much time do you spend every day
working on your dream
there is work that must be done beyond
what people see people see your check
they see the car you drive they see the
house you own but what they don't see is
when you're staying up and putting in 16
hours of work now so that you can relax
and enjoy later you see hard work is how
you get
anything and anything you get without
hard work has no value
no matter what you
face no matter how bad it is going to
be when there is a
challenge and by a challenge I mean
anything in life any any
challenge anything that you're facing
the only way to overcome the challenges
that you
face is to start
[Music]
walking the price of progress is
pain the price of progress is
pain 2024 is not going to be any
different than 2023 if you're no
different in 2024 than you were in 2023
things do not get better because of a
new year they get better because of a
new
you you don't just change a calendar
page you don't just change a date you
have to change you the date doesn't mean
nothing you can be as bad today as you
were yesterday you can be as unhappy
today as you were yesterday regardless
of what the date on the calendar is
determine what it is need to be
changed determine what it is you're
going to replace that with
if there's something inside of you that
you don't like a behavior an emotion a
thought it's not you there's nothing
wrong with you it's a pattern and we can
develop patterns and do them so often
that we think we're our patterns it's
just a habit a habit of thinking habit
of emotion it's a pattern you can change
any pattern when you stop thinking
there's something wrong with you you're
going to lose sleep you'll doubt whether
it'll work you'll stress to make ends
meet you won't finish your to-do list
you'll wonder whether you made the right
call and have no way to know for yours
this is what hard feels like and that's
okay everything worth doing is hard and
the more worth doing it is the harder it
is the greater the payoff the greater
the hardship if it's hard good it means
no one else will do it more for
you oh man your struggle is what made
you who you are now your life was
basically the perfect grounds for
training for where you need to go in
your life you have these tools you were
training for this stuff man you have the
advantage of everybody else it was the
absolute perfect training ground for you
to go to where you need to
go embrace the labels they put on
you people might call you obsessed let
them first they'll ask you why then
they'll ask you how it's only crazy
until it's not your progress will be a
direct reflection of your hard work stay
true to your beliefs make
self-improvement a priority and just
keep
going you know for a in fact in your
mind yeah I should probably be doing it
and then you don't do it
I you're just cheat yourself if you got
something that you want what is stopping
you from getting it you got to realize
that you're in complete control right
you're behind the wheel [ __ ]
day never going to be able to understand
how your mind works if you don't spend
any time in it if you want to make
long-term change you have to learn how
your mind tries to stop you from doing
it your mind doesn't want you to change
it wants you to stay where you're at it
wants you to stay comfortable so when
you get uncomfortable it starts telling
you lies it says this is dangerous
you're tired you're injured something's
wrong but the problem is you never get
to know that it's [ __ ] because the
minute you get uncomfortable you start
hearing that voice and you start
listening to it and you run away from it
you have to live within that resistance
you have to get comfortable in that
resistance that moment right there is
the only moment where you can learn how
to master your mind because if you want
to master it you have to understand it
and you can't understand it if you don't
put it to the
test don't sink the ship right now just
keep your head above water maintain just
try and hold on and uh hopefully give
yourself a chance to notice the magic
the
mystical
[Music]
self-doubt grows when you engage in
negative talk to talk yourself out of
the things you want to be trying there
is so much pain in talking yourself out
of trying things and it just makes me so
sad and frustrated to see so many of you
that are listening really feeling this
desire to try something and putting all
your energy all your energy into talking
yourself out of it
I want to remind you that where you are
in life right now is not who you are
okay who you were has created the life
that you're living right now but who you
are is a different version of yourself
you have felt pain you have learned
lessons hopefully you have gone through
things that that previous self didn't
know or hadn't experienced and now you
are equipped with a different
perspective with different skills and a
better understanding of what decisions
need to be made to change the outcome
that you are currently living
[Music]
in sometimes you have to get away from
certain people and things to actually
start believing in you to actually start
knowing who you are to get clear on your
Visions clear on your dreams and your
goals in life you know and sometimes
that takes isolation you know but so
often we strip ourselves from the gifts
of that isolation because we're so
focused on how lonely we are we're so
focused on how we don't have anybody to
relate to we're so focused on how we
just feel like nobody's there for us
what if that time you can be using to
get clear on who you are to get clear on
the things that you want to do to get
clear on your goals you know to start
believing in yourself to start having a
real relationship with
yourself think that everything the mind
tells you I need to follow that means
freedom no for us it's the other way
around to learn and not follow what the
mind tells
you this is the first step towards
[Music]
freedom
