the thing that people
misunderstand about success is they're
looking for the easiest way to get that
when everybody goes
five easy steps 10 steps to greatness
those steps for success they're infinite
they are
infinite
you cannot count them it doesn't matter
how long you've been doing it those
steps are constantly shifting
you don't know if they're there
sometimes you have to trust that the
next step is going to be there when you
can't even see it and sometimes when you
step on that step
you go right into quicksand but you got
to be able to pull yourself back out of
it again
so everybody's looking for these steps
and there are no steps those steps never
never
end and you just can't climb steps
sometimes you gotta crawl
those steps and you finally get to the
top and everything
shifts
it's not about external validation it's
about your relationship to yourself
you know and you know when your head
hits the pillow at night and when you
wake up in the morning
what that relationship looks like and if
that's missing something
and perhaps that's a little nudge or a
call to action that
you need to change things up a little
bit
[Music]
it's always going to be the sticking
point and a lot of people
like us you know they'll quit because it
got hard
or just because something isn't coming
to them right away
they'll let up a little bit kobe he's
known for saying something
that was quite profound he said you have
to
jumping on what you love what you do
every day you have to love what you do
every day
because those days that are hard those
days that suck
that's where the magic is you go do it
and you get your work in anyway
because that's where you're going to
find out who you are that's where
things are going to continue to happen
and you have to just love putting in the
daily work
because that's another token in the bank
if you will
you're showing up you know striving
uh towards your goal when people get the
challenges they stop you know it's not
just going to come to you there's but
you have to just stick with it you have
to you have to really really believe in
what you're doing
and you have to have faith that it's
going to work out but you got to keep
putting the work in because if you don't
it's not going to come to you you know
going to fall in your lap and and
sometimes when you know that all right
i'm going through it right now this is
tough
let's just take an inch forward let's go
in for today that'll be
better than going backward you don't
want to go back but
i think sometimes just man just just
knowing that it's going to be a
challenge
[Music]
i think sometimes that's uh that's a
good thing to know
we know okay i want to this is my goal
boy it's going to be a lot of obstacles
in there so let me get in shape
let me get a shape in my mind and my
body to be able to navigate to get to
where i need to get to
well you come into the world alone and
you die a lot my friend
and you've got to be on this journey of
growth for yourself can't be contingent
on
another person and i think a lot of
people who are in pain
or are looking you know for some you
know grounding
often look to that other per if i date
that person then i'm going to be okay
[Music]
it's never the case like you've got to
be okay with yourself
in order to attract that person you know
into your life to begin with
i don't know how you can compel that in
somebody they've got to figure that out
for themselves
thinking of myself as the person who's
just good enough to recognize that other
people are better stop doing that
and now start thinking relentlessly
about acquiring new skills that's it
like whatever
be inspired by people that are better
than you great that's amazing
but don't sit there and lament this is
what i used to do
that you're not as good as them find out
how close can you get
most times we live a life of i have to
do
i have to study i have to work i have to
do this
and i have to do that i have to have to
have to have to
where did the love to go
we just end up living a life of have to
and i forgot about our own selves by
subscribing to the pressures that come
from all fronts in our lives
we've forgotten to live our own lives
we don't have time to unwind we don't
have time to spend with our own selves
we don't have time to be with nature and
take a deep
breath and just relish the crispness of
the air
we don't have the time to do all of that
when the pressures are so high and the
pace is so fast we just don't have time
for ourselves ladies and gentlemen
we are just so extensively in crisis
all the time and i just wonder if this
life wasn't meant to be full of love
and joy and happiness i just think we're
getting it a little bit wrong
so life is hard none of us get out of
here
unscathed it is hard i'm not a pollyanna
minimalist on the things that cause of
suffering
if you don't fix yourself with limited
identities
if you do not compare yourself with
anything
if you explore and not see if you want
this tree to grow this
less thing that's why i said not the
fruit root
if you count the fruits maybe that tree
is bearing more fruit than this one
that's not the point you nurture the
root
the fullest possible nurture if you give
to the root what it has to become it
will become
a blade of grass cannot become a tree
but is it not wonderful
[Music]
so i think success is a funny thing
which is we all seem to pursue it
but we don't know how to measure it or
actually how to define it
so how do you pursue something that you
can't measure
i think we must all stop measuring
promotions salaries
and these things but rather measure the
momentum of your career
does my career have momentum can i see
it moving in the right direction can i
see it gathering
moss you know can i see that it's
becoming easier for me to keep the
momentum it's becoming easier for me to
grow
the size of this thing it's it's
requiring less effort that's the thing
we need to measure
that's the thing that we need to be
cognizant of which is the momentum of
our career is not just the
markers that we think define our success
we snap we react at the drop of a hat
just because we are out of balance
people who have a balanced life know how
to handle pressure
people whose lives are not balanced sink
under pressure
[Music]
