• 0:35
  Speaker 2: You're not going to see it. Some days you're not
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: going to want to write about it. You're not going
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: to want to talk about it. You're not going to
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: want to think about it. You're going to have migraines
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: thinking about the sacrifices that are required to get to
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: this next level.

  Speaker 5: But just don't stop.

• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Now most of you say you want to be successful,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: but you don't want it bad. You just kind of
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: want it. You don't want it badder than you want
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: to party. You don't want it as much as you

  Speaker 6: ever thought you could become.

  Speaker 5: I have to execute.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: I have to give it everything I have. Like I
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: know there is no tomorrow. There is no tomorrow. Everything
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: that has happened to you. And I want you to
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: look yourself in the mirror. And I want you to
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: recite these three words.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: I made it.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: When others burnt out, when others gave up, you are
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: still here.
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: And that counts for something.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Make this year the first year of the best years
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: of your life.

• 2:06
  Speaker 5: So prove them wrong. But prove yourself to be right.
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: I dare you to take a little pain. I dare you.
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: I dare you not to go home. Go through it.
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: You ain't going to die at the end of pain
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: and success. You're not going to die because you're feeling
• 2:26
  Speaker 6: a little pain.
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: You got to change that mindset.
• 2:36
  Speaker 7: People that are hungry are willing to do the things
• 2:39
  Speaker 7: today others won't do in order to have the things
• 2:43
  Speaker 7: tomorrow others won't have.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: To have a special life, you have to do special things.
• 2:50
  Speaker 8: And that usually means putting in the work and loving it.
• 2:57
  Speaker 6: No one is going to create the future that you
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: want for you.
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: We get one opportunity to come this way. We get
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: one shot. We got one life to live.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Life is too short to make excuses.
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: I want you to close your eyes and visualize your dream.
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: I need you to get out of your comfort zone.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: If we all woke up ordinary, we all off to
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: the same start.
• 3:28
  Speaker 9: You've decided that you're not going to allow the events,
• 3:32
  Speaker 9: the things, the people, life, determine who you become.
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: It is a decision that you have to make within yourself.
• 3:41
  Speaker 10: No one is responsible for that.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Stop waiting to feel like it. Stop waiting until you
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: see it.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Failure is only permanent if you choose not to get
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: back up.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: And what you do today will determine your future.
• 4:01
  Speaker 9: And I'm asking you, what do you see in the
• 4:03
  Speaker 9: future for you? What brought you here today? What caused
• 4:06
  Speaker 9: you to get up?
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: You're closer than you've ever been before. You have to.
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: Do me a favor.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Those 15 minutes are not worth the rest of your life.
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: It's not easy, but it's worth it.
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: You woke up this morning to chase your dream until
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: you catch it.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: You're going to have to sacrifice who you used to be.
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: When you want to sleep, you have to wake up.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: So don't run from difficulty.
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: Run to it.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Because it's always darkest before the dawn.
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, give it 120%.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Every day, every single day is a new beginning.
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: So take a deep breath.
• 4:58
  Speaker 11: Inhale.
• 5:00
  Speaker 12: Exhale.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: It's a new day. A new opportunity.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: The reason why you're so frustrated and angry and bitter
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: is because you're functioning on an old software internally.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: And life is demanding an upgrade.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: And you keep pushing off the alarm saying, remind me tomorrow.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: It's time for the next version of yourself. Snap out
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: of it.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: You're going to have to sacrifice who you used to be.
• 5:43
  Speaker 13: Sacrifice is what's going to get you in the door.
• 5:46
  Speaker 13: Sacrifice is what's going to have you.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: Seated at the table.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: College is not high school. And the real world is
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: not college.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: And so you can't keep showing up the old version
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: of yourself.
• 6:01
  Speaker 13: And so you've got to learn how to sacrifice your time.
• 6:03
  Speaker 13: You've got to sacrifice. When you want to sleep, you
• 6:05
  Speaker 13: have to wake up. When you want to watch that movie,
• 6:08
  Speaker 13: you've got to read that book. If you want the future,
• 6:11
  Speaker 13: you've got to sacrifice your time.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: Time.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: Where we spend our time is what we value most.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Get out of this 30-day mentality and commit for the
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: rest of your life.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: I need you to get out of your comfort zone.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: You can't be successful with the companion of comfort.
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: Comfort and success cannot walk together.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Boss up and admit that you are afraid. You are
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: afraid to fulfill destiny.
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: You are afraid to manifest. You are afraid to evolve.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: You are afraid to give it everything you have because
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: you are afraid that people will reject you.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: You are afraid to change. You are afraid to move.
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: Pulse up and admit that you are afraid.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: And I'm just believing that today is the day that
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: you break through.
• 7:08
  Speaker 13: I need you to tell yourself, I am not afraid.
• 7:12
  Speaker 13: I am not afraid of pursuing my objectives. I am
• 7:15
  Speaker 13: not afraid of focusing. I am not afraid of sacrificing.
• 7:19
  Speaker 13: I am not afraid of giving it everything I have.
• 7:22
  Speaker 13: I don't care what anybody thinks. I don't care what.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: I look like. I'll look crazy if I have to
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: fulfill my destiny. This is my time.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Late nights, early mornings, sometimes no friends, no family.
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: I don't know what your sacrifice is.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: You just may have to give everything you have.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: But in the end, it'll be worth it.
• 8:01
  Speaker 11: See, happiness is an emotional response to an outcome. If
• 8:05
  Speaker 11: I win, I will be happy. If I don't, I won't.
• 8:08
  Speaker 14: It's an if-then, cause-and-effect, quid pro quo standard that we
• 8:13
  Speaker 14: cannot sustain because we immediately raise it every time we
• 8:17
  Speaker 14: attain it. See, happiness demands a certain outcome.
• 8:22
  Speaker 11: It is result-reliant.
• 8:24
  Speaker 14: And I say if happiness is what you're after, then
• 8:27
  Speaker 14: you're going to be let down frequently and you're going
• 8:29
  Speaker 14: to be unhappy Much of your time.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: Joy though.
• 8:34
  Speaker 11: Joy is a different thing. It's something else. Joy is
• 8:36
  Speaker 11: not a choice. It's not a response. To some result.
• 8:41
  Speaker 14: It's a constant. Joy is the feeling that we have.
• 8:44
  Speaker 14: From doing what we are fashioned.
• 8:47
  Speaker 11: To do. It is just as important. Where we are not.
• 8:54
  Speaker 11: As it is where we are. Look the first step.
• 8:59
  Speaker 14: That leads to our identity in life, is usually not,
• 9:05
  Speaker 14: I know who I am.
• 9:06
  Speaker 11: I know who I am.
• 9:07
  Speaker 14: That's not the first step. The first step's usually, I
• 9:10
  Speaker 14: know who I am not. Process of elimination. Defining ourselves
• 9:16
  Speaker 14: by what we are not is the first step that
• 9:18
  Speaker 14: leads us to really knowing who we are. South of
• 9:23
  Speaker 14: New Orleans, a few years ago, and I went to
• 9:25
  Speaker 14: a voodoo shop. And they had this, this, this, wouldn't.
• 9:30
  Speaker 11: Partition against the wall of these columns.
• 9:32
  Speaker 14: And in these columns were all these vials of these
• 9:35
  Speaker 14: magic potions, right? And the headings above each potion defining
• 9:39
  Speaker 14: what they would give you were things like fertility, health, family,
• 9:44
  Speaker 14: legal health, energy, forgiveness, money.
• 9:50
  Speaker 11: Guess which column was empty? Money. Let's admit it.
• 9:58
  Speaker 14: Money is king today, it's what make the world the
• 10:00
  Speaker 14: world go round.
• 10:01
  Speaker 11: It is success. The more we have, the more successful
• 10:05
  Speaker 11: we are, right?
• 10:06
  Speaker 14: And I would argue that our cultural values have even
• 10:11
  Speaker 14: been financialized.
• 10:13
  Speaker 11: Humility is not in vogue anymore. It's too passive.
• 10:17
  Speaker 14: It's a get-rich-quick-on-the-internet-richest-15-minutes-of-fame world that we live in, and we
• 10:22
  Speaker 14: see it every day. But we all want to succeed, right?
• 10:25
  Speaker 14: So the question that we've got to ask ourselves is,
• 10:27
  Speaker 14: what success is to us? What success is to you?
• 10:32
  Speaker 11: Is it more money? That's fine. I've got nothing against money.
• 10:37
  Speaker 11: I don't. Maybe it's a healthy family. Maybe it's a
• 10:42
  Speaker 11: happy marriage. Maybe it's to help others, to be famous,
• 10:44
  Speaker 11: to be spiritually sound. Leave the world a little bit
• 10:48
  Speaker 11: better place than you found it. Continue to ask yourself
• 10:52
  Speaker 11: that question.
• 10:52
  Speaker 14: Now your answer may change over time and that's fine.
• 10:56
  Speaker 11: But do yourself this favor.
• 10:59
  Speaker 14: Whatever your answer is, don't choose anything that will jeopardize yourself.
• 11:05
  Speaker 14: Prioritize who you are, who you want to be, and
• 11:09
  Speaker 14: don't spend time with anything that antagonizes your character.
• 11:14
  Speaker 11: Don't drink the Kool-Aid, man. It tastes sweet, but you
• 11:17
  Speaker 11: will get cavities tomorrow. All right. Life is not a
• 11:20
  Speaker 11: popularity contest. Be brave. Take the hill. But first, answer
• 11:24
  Speaker 11: that question. What's my hill?
• 11:31
  Speaker 14: There's a responsibility to freedom and that there is freedom
• 11:36
  Speaker 14: in responsibility.
• 11:39
  Speaker 15: You know, and that earn your way there.
• 11:43
  Speaker 14: We remember the stuff we earn, the stuff we experience
• 11:45
  Speaker 14: more than what the teacher tells us or what someone
• 11:48
  Speaker 14: gives us for free.
• 11:50
  Speaker 15: We just do.
• 11:50
  Speaker 14: We broke a proverbial sweat on it, whether it's mental
• 11:53
  Speaker 14: or physical or whatever.
• 11:53
  Speaker 15: We built it. We understand. We felt how we got it,
• 11:57
  Speaker 15: how we achieved it, how we got what we wanted.
• 12:01
  Speaker 15: Those stick with us.
• 12:01
  Speaker 14: Whether we forget them intellectually, they were written in our
• 12:04
  Speaker 14: lineage and they build resilience and they build confidence. A healthy,
• 12:09
  Speaker 14: true optimism going forward to know that, oh, no, I've
• 12:12
  Speaker 14: worked for something before and achieved it. Delayed gratification. Oh,
• 12:16
  Speaker 14: there are choices I can make today for myself that
• 12:19
  Speaker 14: will pay me back later in life. So there are
• 12:22
  Speaker 14: choices we make. If you're going to say right now,
• 12:25
  Speaker 14: I'm going to lie, cheat and steal to get what
• 12:26
  Speaker 14: I want.
• 12:26
  Speaker 15: And I got it.
• 12:28
  Speaker 14: I got an immediate green light for me. That's a
• 12:32
  Speaker 14: battery powered green light. That's not a solar powered green light.
• 12:35
  Speaker 11: Why?
• 12:37
  Speaker 14: Because now everywhere I go, I got to look over
• 12:41
  Speaker 14: my shoulder to see if someone's there that I lied, cheated,
• 12:45
  Speaker 14: stole from.
• 12:46
  Speaker 15: And when I'm doing that, I'm stealing whose time?
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: My time.
• 12:49
  Speaker 15: I'm not free. I don't have the freedom.
• 12:51
  Speaker 14: I didn't create freedom in my future because I chose
• 12:54
  Speaker 14: to make an irresponsible act that I left crumbs.
• 12:59
  Speaker 15: I've now got reasons to look over my shoulder. And
• 13:01
  Speaker 15: the more things we do to create in our future
• 13:04
  Speaker 15: that we've got to look over.
• 13:05
  Speaker 14: Our shoulder, the more of our most precious thing we
• 13:07
  Speaker 14: have in our lifetime that we're stealing from ourselves. So
• 13:11
  Speaker 14: it's not puritanical. It's just like it's actually self-serving. It's
• 13:15
  Speaker 14: a very selfish choice. And I'm a fan of the
• 13:19
  Speaker 14: word selfish. I've helped redefine it. But I believe that
• 13:23
  Speaker 14: there are selfish choices we can make that are the
• 13:25
  Speaker 14: most selfless, that there are selfless choices that we can
• 13:29
  Speaker 14: make that are the most selfish choices.
• 13:31
  Speaker 15: Those two are not a contradiction, and we see them
• 13:33
  Speaker 15: that way. Responsibility is appreciation of a past. It's building
• 13:37
  Speaker 15: of a lineage. It's investing in ourselves.
• 13:39
  Speaker 14: It's investing in something we started to build yesterday that
• 13:41
  Speaker 14: we want to take into tomorrow.
• 13:46
  Speaker 8: You only have to ask a stupid question once. You
• 13:48
  Speaker 8: ask a stupid question, and if you're in a crowd
• 13:51
  Speaker 8: and you ask a stupid question, 80% of the people
• 13:53
  Speaker 8: in the crowd have the same question. They're just too
• 13:55
  Speaker 8: cowardly to ask. But you ask, and then someone actually
• 13:58
  Speaker 8: tells you. You never have to ask that question again.
• 14:01
  Speaker 8: You're no longer stupid. What stupid thing am I doing
• 14:05
  Speaker 8: that I could quit doing? That I would quit doing?
• 14:09
  Speaker 8: Because those aren't the same thing, right? Because you know
• 14:11
  Speaker 8: there's stupid things that you're doing that you're just not
• 14:13
  Speaker 8: going to quit doing because you like them. But there
• 14:15
  Speaker 8: might be something on the edge there where you could
• 14:18
  Speaker 8: stop that. If you want to know something about yourself,
• 14:22
  Speaker 8: sit on your bed one night and say to yourself,
• 14:24
  Speaker 8: you've got to mean this, like.
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: You've got to be desperate. This is no game, this.
• 14:29
  Speaker 8: My life is not everything I want it to be.
• 14:32
  Speaker 8: And perhaps it's not everything that I need it to be.
• 14:35
  Speaker 8: And by need, I mean my life is so unbearable
• 14:38
  Speaker 8: that the suffering that's attendant upon that has made me nihilistic, cynical, bitter, resentful,
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: driving the proclivity to see evil everywhere except within my
• 14:48
  Speaker 8: own heart. Like, these are problems, man. And you ask yourself,
• 14:54
  Speaker 8: you sit on the bed and say, okay, man, I'm ready.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: To learn something.
• 14:59
  Speaker 15: What's one thing I'm doing wrong?
• 15:01
  Speaker 8: That I know I'm doing wrong, that I could fix,
• 15:06
  Speaker 8: that I would fix. It's like, you meditate on that,
• 15:10
  Speaker 8: you'll get an answer. And it won't be one you want,
• 15:14
  Speaker 8: but it'll be the necessary one. You know, and it's
• 15:17
  Speaker 8: often something that will point you to small things.
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: Like that works.
• 15:22
  Speaker 8: You start making those micro improvements, like real micro improvements,
• 15:26
  Speaker 8: real on the ground, actual micro improvements to things you
• 15:29
  Speaker 8: know that are wrong. You'll improve unbelievably rapidly. The great
• 15:35
  Speaker 8: people I know are brutally truthful to themselves and other people.
• 15:39
  Speaker 8: And they have insanely adventurous lives. Get rid of everything
• 15:43
  Speaker 8: you say that you only say to impress other people.
• 15:45
  Speaker 8: And just see if you can say what you believe
• 15:47
  Speaker 8: to be true. That's an adventure. That's the thing about
• 15:50
  Speaker 8: the truth, you know. Well, you got to ask yourself,
• 15:53
  Speaker 8: if you're not speaking the truth, who is it that's talking?
• 15:57
  Speaker 8: If you're saying something that you do not believe to
• 15:59
  Speaker 8: be true, it's not you talking.
• 16:01
  Speaker 11: It's something else.
• 16:02
  Speaker 8: It might be the part of you that wants to
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: manipulate the other person into delivering what you think you
• 16:07
  Speaker 8: want from them. Well, what is that spirit of manipulation
• 16:10
  Speaker 8: that you've allowed.
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: To possess you? It's not you.
• 16:13
  Speaker 8: Let's say you decide to live your whole life in
• 16:16
  Speaker 8: that instrumental manner. You're going to craft your words like
• 16:18
  Speaker 8: the student who says, well, I'm going to write what
• 16:20
  Speaker 8: the professor wants to hear so I get the grade.
• 16:22
  Speaker 8: It's like, well, you just turn yourself into that. Well,
• 16:25
  Speaker 8: who is it that's doing that manipulating? It's not you,
• 16:28
  Speaker 8: because those aren't your words. So even if you get
• 16:31
  Speaker 8: the grade, it's not you that got the grade.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: It's the false you.
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: It's the manipulative you. So you do that your whole life.
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: You don't have your life. And then you think, well, God,
• 16:40
  Speaker 8: that was a miserable life. I manipulated everybody. They were
• 16:43
  Speaker 8: so damn stupid. They were sucked in by it. They're
• 16:46
  Speaker 8: all contemptible. Everyone does it, you know, which they don't,
• 16:49
  Speaker 8: by the way. And so that's a pathway to bitterness.
• 16:52
  Speaker 8: Partly because if you're a manipulator and you use your
• 16:56
  Speaker 8: language falsely, you don't live your own life. You live
• 16:59
  Speaker 8: the life of whatever possesses you when you think it's
• 17:03
  Speaker 8: you manipulating. And so you live the life of the
• 17:06
  Speaker 8: spirit of manipulation.
• 17:13
  Speaker 12: First rule, the moment you start to slide, you're shoveling
• 17:17
  Speaker 12: against the tide.
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: What you need to do is what? Take a break.
• 17:22
  Speaker 12: Here's what's cool about it. You can study for a
• 17:25
  Speaker 12: half hour. It doesn't take a half hour break to
• 17:28
  Speaker 12: recharge your batteries. For most people, about five minutes.
• 17:33
  Speaker 16: We always dread sitting down to study for extended periods
• 17:36
  Speaker 16: of time. But what you may not realize is that
• 17:39
  Speaker 16: you are hindering yourself from studying effectively if you do this.
• 17:43
  Speaker 16: As Marty Lobdell explains in his lecture, things that are
• 17:46
  Speaker 16: reinforced we tend to do more of. things that are
• 17:49
  Speaker 16: punished or ignored, we tend to do less of. This
• 17:53
  Speaker 16: can transfer to how we study as well. If we
• 17:55
  Speaker 16: dread sitting down to study for five hours straight, we
• 17:58
  Speaker 16: aren't going to study nearly as well as if we
• 18:00
  Speaker 16: break up our study into smaller chunks of time. According
• 18:04
  Speaker 16: to London's Global University, five of the benefits of taking
• 18:08
  Speaker 16: study breaks include improved memory, reduced stress, improved health, and
• 18:13
  Speaker 16: boosts to your energy, as well as boosting your performance
• 18:16
  Speaker 16: and creativity. The main point to take away from this
• 18:19
  Speaker 16: is to make sure to break up your study time
• 18:22
  Speaker 16: from longer periods to shorter ones with scheduled breaks. As
• 18:26
  Speaker 16: a bonus, add on a well-deserved treat at the end
• 18:29
  Speaker 16: of the study time. It'll help motivate you to be
• 18:31
  Speaker 16: more productive during your allotted study time.
• 18:34
  Speaker 12: And this is where you go away, do something fun
• 18:38
  Speaker 12: for five minutes. Call a friend, talk to a child,
• 18:41
  Speaker 12: talk to a parent, a roommate. Enjoy some music. Do
• 18:44
  Speaker 12: something you enjoy and actually say, this is my treat.
• 18:47
  Speaker 12: for having studied for 30 minutes effectively. Go back, and
• 18:50
  Speaker 12: here's what happens. Your efficiency is nearly 100%.
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: Study a half hour.
• 18:57
  Speaker 12: Take a break.
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: Study a half hour.
• 18:59
  Speaker 12: Study a half hour.
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: I got three words for you. Shut it down. Log
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: out of the social media. Get off the internet, unplug.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: And evaluate where you are and where you're supposed to be.
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: You got one life to live. The question is, why.
• 19:25
  Speaker 11: Are you here?
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: And what are you going to do about it?
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: Because the truth of the matter is, you have survived
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: the greatest traumas of your life.
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: Life has hit you. Life has knocked you to the ground.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: There are people that have tried to bury you alive
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: and you survived.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: So I need you to disperse. for 30 days. I
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: need you to disappear for just one month.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Don't worry about the prize. You worry about the process.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: You don't decide when you're born. You don't decide when
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: you die. But you got a whole lot to do
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: with that in-between stuff.
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: Listen to me.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Whatever you put your heart to do, whatever you put
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: your mind to do, whatever it is that you want
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: to accomplish, I don't care if you don't have no support.
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: With me, you, alone, we can get this thing done, baby.
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: All right? Who am I talking to?
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: I'm talking to that person that's tired of where they are.
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: And you are bold enough. You are crazy enough.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: You are courageous enough to shut it down for 30 days.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: The window of opportunity and sometimes the window of life,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: it closes quickly.
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: And so I need you to do me a huge favor, man.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: I need you to get busy living.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: The future is very expensive and it requires sacrifice now.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Can you depart from instant gratification and suffer now that
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: you live the rest of your life a champion?
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: All you need to get where you're going, you already
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: got it, right? You already have it. All I need
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: you to do is believe in yourself. Disappear for 30 days.
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: Come back and shock the world!
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Can you identify What has kept you broken?
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: What has kept you broke? What has kept you defeated?
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: What has kept you covered under the blankets of anxiety
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: and stress and overwhelm?
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: But you're trying to make business moves with people that
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: don't think like you. They don't walk like you. They
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: don't sacrifice like you.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: They're not willing to put in the blood, the sweat,
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: the tears behind closed doors.
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: A man is rewarded in public for what he does
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: in private. I need you to disappear for the next
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: 30 days. What does that look like?
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: 720 hours dedicated to the future. I need you to
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: disappear for 30 days. Just 30 days. Can you walk
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: away for 30 days? Can you silence the doubters for
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: 30 days? Can you tell everybody to be quiet for
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: 30 days so you can focus on you? Who you
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: are today has gotten you as far as you're going
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: to get.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: If you're going to get any further, you've got to
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: reinvent yourself.
• 22:32
  Speaker 13: And if you're going to reinvent yourself, you've got to
• 22:34
  Speaker 13: sit it down for 30 days.
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: I need you to pursue it. I need you to
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: go get it, all right? I need you to go
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: get it. Don't wait for it to come to you,
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: all right? Greatness is not going to come knock on
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: your door. There's some opportunity that's not going to come
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: knock on your door. You've got to go get them.
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: Without even knowing you, if you're watching me, I already
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: know you got something.
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: Within that you wanted. I already know that.
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: Because I already know you can. But my question to
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: you young people this summer, will you? I already know
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: what you're capable of doing, but my question is, will
• 23:05
  Speaker 6: you reach your potential?
• 23:07
  Speaker 13: You've been too focused on who was not there for
• 23:09
  Speaker 13: you and who did not believe in you.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: And the people that just said it but didn't do it.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: You've been too focused on that. the trauma, the anxiety.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: And I'm wondering if you can begin to shift that
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: focus in the next 30 days, if you can begin
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: to shift that focus on what's working in your life,
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: what's within your control and not what's outside of your control.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: What can you control? Who can you influence?
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: The first person that needs to be influenced in your
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: life is you.
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: It's you.
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: You can't lead anybody.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: You can't go anywhere unless you have awakened yourself on
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: the inside to follow a specific plan.
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: Write it out.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: I need you to disappear for 30 days.
• 23:57
  Speaker 8: You know, what should happen when you go to university
• 23:59
  Speaker 8: is you should learn how to think and formulate arguments.
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: You should learn to think, speak, and write. That's what
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: the humanities are for. They're to make you dangerous, right?
• 24:09
  Speaker 8: Because if you can think and speak and write, you're deadly.
• 24:12
  Speaker 8: In a complex job, you're exactly what's necessary. There's nothing
• 24:16
  Speaker 8: you can possibly do to become more deadly than to...
• 24:20
  Speaker 8: improve your facility with language and the way you do
• 24:23
  Speaker 8: that is by reading especially great things and by writing
• 24:26
  Speaker 8: and by thinking and by speaking for that matter but
• 24:29
  Speaker 8: how how could that not be viewed as absolutely central
• 24:33
  Speaker 8: to what education is about you want to be inarticulate
• 24:36
  Speaker 8: and stumble over everything that you try to think and
• 24:39
  Speaker 8: communicate how are you going to get anywhere you don't
• 24:42
  Speaker 8: even know who you are under those circumstances you're this
• 24:45
  Speaker 8: massive feeling of that's expressing itself, you know, maybe in
• 24:48
  Speaker 8: violence because you can't find the words and you stumble
• 24:52
  Speaker 8: around and bump into things and you're clunky and dull
• 24:55
  Speaker 8: and you're not witty. You don't sparkle. So let's say
• 24:58
  Speaker 8: you take the example of a SEAL who's got it all,
• 25:01
  Speaker 8: but this literacy, what happens to him compared to someone
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: who has all those skills?
• 25:10
  Speaker 17: If he can't write well and he's in charge of
• 25:13
  Speaker 17: six guys and one of those guys is works hard
• 25:17
  Speaker 17: or does something that deserves to be recognized. This is
• 25:20
  Speaker 17: the responsibility of that leader to write that person an award.
• 25:24
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 25:24
  Speaker 8: So he can't reward his, he can't reward his, his
• 25:27
  Speaker 8: good workers, his good soldiers.
• 25:29
  Speaker 17: He can give them a pat on the back, but
• 25:31
  Speaker 17: the pat on the back isn't going to get him promoted.
• 25:33
  Speaker 17: An award is actually worth some points towards your promotion.
• 25:37
  Speaker 17: And the people that are on that board that are
• 25:39
  Speaker 17: giving that reward are They're never going to meet that
• 25:42
  Speaker 17: leader and they're definitely not going to meet that guy.
• 25:45
  Speaker 17: There's no bias. It's based on this piece of paper
• 25:48
  Speaker 17: that you hand in. You hand in this piece of paper,
• 25:50
  Speaker 17: they read the piece of paper and they say, award
• 25:51
  Speaker 17: approved or award not approved. Or you want to do
• 25:54
  Speaker 17: a mission and you send that up the chain of command.
• 25:58
  Speaker 15: And it's the same thing.
• 25:59
  Speaker 17: It gets to a certain point where they're just looking
• 26:00
  Speaker 17: at it and reading and trying to decipher this pile
• 26:04
  Speaker 17: of junk.
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: That you put together.
• 26:06
  Speaker 17: And by the way, if I'm in charge and Jordan
• 26:08
  Speaker 17: sends me a concept of operations that doesn't make any sense,
• 26:13
  Speaker 17: why would I possibly let you go out and execute
• 26:15
  Speaker 17: an operation that I can't even understand what it is
• 26:18
  Speaker 17: you're trying to do?
• 26:19
  Speaker 8: Because what I observed in my own career, and it's
• 26:22
  Speaker 8: so interesting, the parallelism is so interesting, but not surprising,
• 26:26
  Speaker 8: is that nothing can stop you if you can write.
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: And it's for the reasons you just laid out.
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: It's like when you write, you make a case for something,
• 26:36
  Speaker 8: whatever it happens to be. And if you make the
• 26:39
  Speaker 8: best case, well, then you win and you get whatever
• 26:43
  Speaker 8: it is that you're aiming at. And so you're adventurous
• 26:47
  Speaker 8: and You want to make a mark? You bloody well
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: better learn how to write. Because if you learn how
• 26:53
  Speaker 8: to write, well, then you can think and you can
• 26:55
  Speaker 8: communicate your thoughts. So not only are you deadly strategically,
• 26:59
  Speaker 8: you become extremely convincing. And then you can go and
• 27:02
  Speaker 8: do anything you want and no one will stop you.
• 27:05
  Speaker 8: And that's never told to people. And I don't really
• 27:10
  Speaker 8: understand why. You know, you hear the pen is mightier
• 27:13
  Speaker 8: than the sword, which is just a cliche unless it's
• 27:16
  Speaker 8: fleshed out.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: If all you want is success, you will not have it.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: And so if all you want is the success, if
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: all you want is a trophy, but you don't want
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: a story, a process, if you don't want to be
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: made into something, then you've already missed it. You've already failed.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: You've already tanked. And so once you get this, everything changes.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: What have been the biggest obstacles in your life? What
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: has stopped you? What has hindered you? What has provoked
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: you to get lazy? When life pushed you down, when
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: everybody said you are not enough, when you told yourself.
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: I quit because I can't finish and you got back
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: up the next day and kept going.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Sacrifice is going to have to become your companion and
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: no longer your enemy. Too many of you think sacrifice
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: is your enemy. Sacrifice is a curse word. Sacrifice is bad.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: I don't want to sacrifice.
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: Well, guess what?
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: You cannot have success without process, without sacrifice.
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: You cannot have it. Get up. Wake up. There's always
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: another level.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: And it's not about beating the man or woman that's
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: standing in the room with you. It's about beating the
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: man and the woman that's in the mirror. Can you
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: do better than you? Can you do better than you
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: did yesterday? That's all I want to ask you. Can
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: you do better? This is the day, come on, say
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: this with me. This is the day I learn like
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: I never have. This is the day I invest like
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: I never have. This is the day I take it seriously.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: I got one window. I may not be here tomorrow.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: I see all things working for good. I see you
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: stepping into everything that God has called you to do.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: I see you stepping into purpose and stepping into the
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: plans that God already has laid out for you.
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: This is your day. Get up and conquer your day.
• 29:26
  Speaker 13: I'm just wondering what are you going to do in
• 29:27
  Speaker 13: this next 24 hours that you did not do? I'm
• 29:30
  Speaker 13: just wondering if you're going to level up two millimeters
• 29:32
  Speaker 13: more than you did yesterday.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: Are you going to get better? Are you going to
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: get stronger? Are you going to get wiser? Are you
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: going to pray differently? Are you going to see this
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: thing differently?
• 29:42
  Speaker 13: I'm just wondering when are you going to see the
• 29:45
  Speaker 13: power of 24 hours? I'm just wondering when are you
• 29:50
  Speaker 13: going to seize the opportunities? You can have journals full
• 29:54
  Speaker 13: of dreams. You can have vision boards from your front
• 29:58
  Speaker 13: door to your bathroom. But if you don't count up
• 30:00
  Speaker 13: the cost of what it's going to take and if
• 30:02
  Speaker 13: you are not willing to pay that price, you cannot
• 30:06
  Speaker 13: have your future.
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: I want you to get this mentality in your head.
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: Every day you pay. You pay. Forget waking up at
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: 2 o'clock in the morning.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: You may have to lose sleep for a week. You
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: may get two hours of sleep in seven days so
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: that you can accomplish what it is that you've been
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: destined to accomplish. What you were born to contribute to humanity.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: And so I know it hurts and I know it's expensive.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: Everything you need to get to this next level is
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: inside of you. There's always another level to stand up.
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: I'm just wondering if you're going to rise and see
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: the opportunity. Rise. Rise above what they said. Rise above
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: what happened. Get up. Get up.
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: Get up.
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: You've got a day to conquer. I know you don't
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: feel up to the task.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: I know you've got some doubt and you've got some
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: fear and you've got some uncertainty and you hate the
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: image that you see in the mirror and you hate
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: the way your money looks and your relationships look and
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: people that you've given your all to keep walking out
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: on you.
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: I know you feel stuck in reverse. I know you
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: feel like you're underpaid and undervalued and overlooked.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: But listen, get up This is the day that everything changes.
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: Get up.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Rajaguar. Get up and get after it. Get up and
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: get after it. You are here by design. You are
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: listening to this talk by design. Get up and beat
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: yourself from yesterday.
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: I don't have time to walk in unforgiveness. I'm focused.
• 31:57
  Speaker 13: I don't have time to think about who doesn't like me,
• 32:01
  Speaker 13: who doesn't agree with me.
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: I'm too focused. Get focused. Get focused. And you got
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: two options. You can give up or get up.
• 32:10
  Speaker 18: Up the measure of of trauma and misery it doesn't
• 32:17
  Speaker 18: matter if you are alive you have another opportunity to
• 32:22
  Speaker 18: begin again and every day every single day gives you
• 32:28
  Speaker 18: that new opportunity so if you don't have a to-do
• 32:31
  Speaker 18: list get a to-do list if you haven't planned the
• 32:34
  Speaker 18: day start planning your day the night before if you
• 32:37
  Speaker 18: don't have a morning routine Get.
• 32:39
  Speaker 19: A morning routine. Start your morning with prayer and meditation.
• 32:43
  Speaker 19: If you're not tracking your progress, start tracking your progress.
• 32:46
  Speaker 19: If you don't have accountability partners, you need to get
• 32:49
  Speaker 19: accountability partners. If you have not identified the roadblocks, if
• 32:53
  Speaker 19: you have not identified the kryptonite, if you have not
• 32:56
  Speaker 19: identified the hurdles, what has hindered your forward progress, identify
• 33:01
  Speaker 19: those things.
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: Get up and get after it.
• 33:08
  Speaker 7: People that are hungry are willing to do the things
• 33:11
  Speaker 7: today others won't do in order to have the things
• 33:14
  Speaker 7: tomorrow others won't have.
• 33:18
  Speaker 6: I need you to ask yourself a serious question. How
• 33:23
  Speaker 6: bad do you want it?
• 33:26
  Speaker 18: And every day, every single day gives you that new opportunity.
• 33:31
  Speaker 18: Get up and get after it.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: Every day, every single day is a new beginning. So
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: take a deep breath, inhale, exhale. It's a new day,
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: a new opportunity.
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: There is no passion to be found in settling for
• 33:48
  Speaker 6: a life that is less than.
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: The one that you are capable of living. Rise and grind.
• 33:57
  Speaker 16: No one is going to create the future that you
• 33:59
  Speaker 16: want for you.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Just needs you to be 1% better than you were yesterday.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: If you can be 1% better than you were yesterday,
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: You're making progress.
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: You're not putting forth 120%. You're not all in.
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: If you get to that point where you do exactly
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: what you say you're.
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: Going to do, you're going to get to the next level.
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: All right, so let's get started. Let's get started. Let's
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: get started.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: See, people who.
• 34:22
  Speaker 9: Have something to look forward to don't need an alarm clock.
• 34:25
  Speaker 5: At the end of the.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Day, you can listen to a million motivational speeches, but
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: you are going to have to wake up and make
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: a decision to get it done.
• 34:36
  Speaker 10: It is not life that's holding you back. You just
• 34:40
  Speaker 10: gotta be a little bit tougher than your circumstances. There
• 34:44
  Speaker 10: are gonna be times that you're gonna wanna give.
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: Up, but you don't have the permission to do so.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Those 15 minutes are not worth the rest of your life.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: Those 15 minutes are not worth you slipping.
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: Down the chart. That is not worth it.
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: You're focused on the risk more than you are the reward.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: You're focused on the pain of the process more than
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: you are the glory on the other side. Everybody wants
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: to have to be and do what they.
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: Feel they've been called to do. The challenge becomes that
• 35:22
  Speaker 6: most of us, when it's time to do what beasts do.
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: We don't do it.
• 35:29
  Speaker 9: And I'm asking you, what do you see in the
• 35:31
  Speaker 9: future for you?
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: What brought you here today? What caused you to get up?
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: You see, how you do anything is how you do everything.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: And the fact is, it all comes down to one thing.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: That one thing is choice. And what's the easiest choice
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: to make? Well, the easiest choice to make is to
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: choose what you've chosen before. If you always do what
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: you've always done, then you'll always get what you've always got.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: Ultimately your attention is your superpower. Your attention to focus
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: on now what needs to be done. And this is
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: the difference between success and failure. If life was a
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: garden then what sort of state is the garden of
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: your life in? Because the natural state of the garden
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: is decay. And if you don't look after the garden
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: then You know what happens, right? It gets out of control.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: You have weeds and then there can be a lot
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: of work to do. The best time to plant a
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now,
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: but I would say it's not now, it's right now.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: It's really all about just playing the game, playing the
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: game of life and making progress together. And maybe now
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: it's time to wake up and realize the ultimate choice.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: The choice of who are you listening to? And I
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: don't mean my voice. I mean the voices in your head.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: And I actually said the voices. Because maybe there's more
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: than one. When you woke up this morning, these voices started.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: Did you hear that voice that said, stay here.
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: It's lovely.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: It's warm. It's comfortable.
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: Or did you hear that other voice that said, hey,
• 37:52
  Speaker 5: come on.
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: Let's get up. Let's go.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: Which one are you listening to? It's the same challenge
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: for most of us. It's who we're listening to. And
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: I'd like to introduce you to someone. It's the voice
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: of of your future self. And you could think of
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: me like a lawyer who's come from your future self
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: to say, hey, your future self is talking to you.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: It's just maybe you haven't really been paying attention. Most
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: people today are actually living a future they don't want.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: It's called a default future. And what's the hardest thing
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: to do? To create a new future, it's to build
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: a compelling relationship to your future self and just get started.
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: But I know sometimes with the things we've got to do,
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: they might seem really big. So just doing it might
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: seem like, well, there's just too much to do. But
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: the real key is to just get started. Because our
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: brain will always favor what is easier. Our brains tend
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: to focus on taking the easy path. Anything that grows
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: comes up against resistance. So the resistance that we have
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: to start work, the resistance that we have to start
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: engaging in activities that will create the futures that we want,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: always require us to move through resistance. And right now,
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: I'd like you to imagine that you go on a
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: journey and in the distance, in the horizon, you see
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: someone and you think, that person looks familiar to me.
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: And as you walk closer to that person, you realize,
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: hang on, hang on a second, that's me.
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: It is you, but it's you in the future.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: And as you get closer to your future self, imagine
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: that that future self opens his arms up and gives
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: you a really big hug. And you realize the possibilities
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: that exist for you To become your future self. Is
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: today the day where you get distracted? Or is this
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: the day you just get started?
• 40:38
  Speaker 6: Stop being afraid to go to college because your daddy
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: didn't go and your mama didn't go. Stop being afraid
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: and be the best Eric Thomas you can be. But
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: listen to me, it's going to be hard. It took
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: me 12 years to get a four-year degree, but.
• 40:49
  Speaker 5: I got it. And guess what? On a degree, it
• 40:51
  Speaker 5: don't have dates.
• 40:52
  Speaker 6: So if it took you four and it took me 12,
• 40:54
  Speaker 6: it don't show up nowhere. I need you to study
• 40:59
  Speaker 6: like you've never studied before. I need you up all
• 41:01
  Speaker 6: night long. Studying getting about three four hours here hour
• 41:05
  Speaker 6: and a half here two hours here You hear me
• 41:07
  Speaker 6: say this all the time, but some of you this
• 41:09
  Speaker 6: is it? And even you say Eric look man, you
• 41:12
  Speaker 6: understand if I put everything and I'm still gonna get
• 41:15
  Speaker 6: a 1.0 I'm telling you to do it anyway Because
• 41:18
  Speaker 6: you know, I told up flunk English three times like
• 41:21
  Speaker 6: when I was in college right flunky the first time
• 41:24
  Speaker 6: And I quit when they told me I couldn't pass
• 41:26
  Speaker 6: the second time. She told me you're gonna flunk I
• 41:27
  Speaker 6: stayed in there anyway And guess what? As stupid as
• 41:30
  Speaker 6: this might sound, even though you flunk, you learn a
• 41:33
  Speaker 6: new concept, right? So that's one or two less.
• 41:36
  Speaker 5: Concepts I got to learn the next year, right?
• 41:40
  Speaker 6: And finally, that third time, I clapped it, which means
• 41:42
  Speaker 6: you just take a test. And I took the test
• 41:44
  Speaker 6: and I passed it.
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: You don't get it.
• 41:47
  Speaker 6: You have to give everything you got to get what
• 41:50
  Speaker 6: you want. You have to give everything you don't even
• 41:53
  Speaker 6: realize you have to get where you're trying to go.
• 41:57
  Speaker 6: Don't you get it? When you do what they want,
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: you will have what they don't. When you do what
• 42:03
  Speaker 6: they refuse, they won't have the options that you get
• 42:06
  Speaker 6: to choose. Because those are reserved for those who choose
• 42:10
  Speaker 6: to move when others choose to stand still. Those are
• 42:14
  Speaker 6: reserved for those that choose to get up when so
• 42:17
  Speaker 6: many others couldn't find the strength to lift up and
• 42:20
  Speaker 6: give more.
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: And when you get to the point where all you want.
• 42:25
  Speaker 6: To do is be successful as bad as you want
• 42:27
  Speaker 6: to breathe, then you'll be successful. And I'm here to
• 42:30
  Speaker 6: tell you, number one, that most of you say you
• 42:32
  Speaker 6: want to be successful, but you don't want it bad.
• 42:35
  Speaker 6: You just kind of want it. You don't want it
• 42:37
  Speaker 6: bad and then you want to party. You don't want
• 42:39
  Speaker 6: it as much as you want to be cool. Most
• 42:42
  Speaker 6: of you don't want success as much as.
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: You want to sleep.
• 42:45
  Speaker 6: Some of you, you can make sacrifices when Monday Night
• 42:48
  Speaker 6: Football is not on.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: You can make a sacrifice. But when the game come on,
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: for some reason, you just attach to it. You can
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: make sacrifices on Sunday when ain't nothing going on. But
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: when your favorite show comes on Monday, bam, some of you,
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: you focus into the phone ring and then you like,
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: I gotta answer it. If I don't answer the phone,
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna die.
• 43:07
  Speaker 6: I'm saying to you today that there are some of you,
• 43:09
  Speaker 6: if you give up your cell phone, you would be successful.
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: But your cell phone is more important.
• 43:14
  Speaker 6: To you than your success. You have to give it
• 43:18
  Speaker 6: everything you got.
• 43:19
  Speaker 5: No more TV, no more parties, no more playing. If
• 43:22
  Speaker 5: you have a 4.0, what you need to be doing
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: is studying. Get off the phone. I'm sorry, I'm not
• 43:28
  Speaker 5: available until the end.
• 43:28
  Speaker 7: Of this year.
• 43:32
  Speaker 5: No, I'm for real.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: You've reached the right number, but you called me at
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: the wrong time. Call me back January 1st. I'm about
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: to get busy now. Every time you.
• 43:48
  Speaker 6: Ever got in trouble, somebody in your house got you
• 43:50
  Speaker 6: out of it. Every time you've done something you're not
• 43:54
  Speaker 6: supposed to do. People say, Eric, your mother's a tyrant.
• 43:56
  Speaker 5: You're right. She kicked me out. You're right. She's mean,
• 43:59
  Speaker 5: but she.
• 44:00
  Speaker 6: Developed a man because she put me out there and said,
• 44:02
  Speaker 6: you're going to have to grow up. And some of
• 44:04
  Speaker 6: you have never learned to grow up. And so every
• 44:07
  Speaker 6: time something get hard, you quit.
• 44:08
  Speaker 5: You call mama. I dare you to take a little pain.
• 44:13
  Speaker 5: I dare you. I dare you not to go home.
• 44:16
  Speaker 5: Somebody said, I don't go home, I feel bad. Go
• 44:19
  Speaker 5: through it. You ain't going to die at the end
• 44:23
  Speaker 5: of pain and success. You're not going to die because
• 44:26
  Speaker 5: you're feeling a little pain.
• 44:29
  Speaker 6: So let this be the time that you lift yourself
• 44:32
  Speaker 6: back up.
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: You did it over and over again. Why stop now?
• 44:37
  Speaker 5: You're too close.
• 44:39
  Speaker 6: Success is right around the corner. And even if it
• 44:42
  Speaker 6: takes a little bit longer to get there, it's okay.
• 44:46
  Speaker 5: It's coming.
• 44:47
  Speaker 6: I gotta commit my very being to this thing. I
• 44:50
  Speaker 6: gotta breathe it, I gotta eat it, I gotta sleep it.
• 44:53
  Speaker 6: And until you get there, you'll never be successful in life.
• 44:56
  Speaker 6: But once you get there, I guarantee you, the world
• 44:59
  Speaker 6: is yours. You already know sometimes you got to disappear
• 45:02
  Speaker 6: for three months. Sometimes you got to disappear for six months.
• 45:05
  Speaker 6: Sometimes you got to disappear for nine months. Sometimes you
• 45:07
  Speaker 6: got to disappear for a whole year, two years, and
• 45:09
  Speaker 6: then emerge.
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: The new you.
• 45:12
  Speaker 6: The new and improved you. On an entirely different level. See,
• 45:18
  Speaker 6: your dream is like a muscle. And sometimes you got
• 45:21
  Speaker 6: to let that muscle get broke down.
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: The greats?
• 45:26
  Speaker 6: They don't even start counting the reps until it hurts
• 45:29
  Speaker 6: because they understand that pain is what's going to lead
• 45:33
  Speaker 6: to that future gain.
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: So from this day forward, excuses are for the weak.
• 45:38
  Speaker 6: So starting right now, not tomorrow, not next week, I
• 45:41
  Speaker 6: need you to vow to keep going.
• 45:44
  Speaker 5: It's when you have nothing left. It's when you depleted
• 45:47
  Speaker 5: all your money.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: When all your energy gone.
• 45:49
  Speaker 5: When you have nothing left. That's when it's show time.
• 45:53
  Speaker 6: When you want this thing as bad as you want
• 45:55
  Speaker 6: to breathe.
• 45:56
  Speaker 5: That's when you find a way. Listen to me very closely.
• 46:04
  Speaker 5: You got to change that mindset.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: Every single thing that you do, you are casting a
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: vote for your future self. So don't wait to feel pain.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: Don't wait to get yourself in a place where you're
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: desperate to take action. Because to really win, it's not
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: a destination. To win is that constant striving and struggling
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: for you to become your future self.
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: Do something today.
• 46:43
  Speaker 6: That your future self will fall madly in love with
• 46:46
  Speaker 6: you for.
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you need to go find a mirror and tell
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: yourself with tears in your eyes.
• 46:52
  Speaker 5: I am the problem. Once we stop accusing everybody else
• 47:00
  Speaker 5: for our inconsistency and our lack of execution.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: All of a sudden the world opens up. Drop the frustration.
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: Once you discover your why. I want you to spend
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: the rest of your life, take your time, your talent
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: and execute. Many influencers and speakers will give you a
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: grocery list of things you need to buy into in
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: order to be successful.
• 47:22
  Speaker 5: I'm going to give you three things.
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: If you can just get these three things, then I
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: wholeheartedly believe that the infection, the disease, the dysfunction of
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: inconsistency will be literally eradicated out of your life.
• 47:37
  Speaker 5: What's your why? You're going to need discipline to do
• 47:40
  Speaker 5: what you do. and you're going to need perspective.
• 47:43
  Speaker 6: You might get tested today, but you were born with
• 47:47
  Speaker 6: mental toughness to fight through.
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: There is absolutely and.
• 47:51
  Speaker 6: Never has been any give up in you. So a
• 47:55
  Speaker 6: champion like you, you're going to do what you got
• 47:58
  Speaker 6: to do to make sure the day comes that you
• 48:01
  Speaker 6: rewrite the history of.
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: Your family, that you leave a legacy.
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: Either you do what you should be doing right now
• 48:09
  Speaker 6: so you can live like you want to be living
• 48:10
  Speaker 6: in the future.
• 48:12
  Speaker 5: Or you don't do what you should be doing right now.
• 48:15
  Speaker 6: And I guarantee you, your future self will hate you
• 48:19
  Speaker 6: for it.
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: Is it possible that the greatest thing you ever do
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: in your life will be.
• 48:27
  Speaker 5: The person that you become?
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: That every single day you have the opportunity with all
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: of the decisions that you make to create a future
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: self that is better than you. that is more courageous
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: than you, that is someone that has achieved all of
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: their goals and dreams and ambitions.
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: It's time to get out of the way. It is
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: because of you that you are not where you want
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: to be.
• 48:56
  Speaker 5: You are the issue. It's you. Your issue is you.
• 49:01
  Speaker 13: Every year we go through the same cycle. I'm going
• 49:05
  Speaker 13: to eat better. I'm going to exercise. I'm going to
• 49:08
  Speaker 13: cut off all negative people. I'm going to be optimistic.
• 49:12
  Speaker 13: Come on, we say all these things. Two weeks later,
• 49:15
  Speaker 13: everything hits the fan. If you study history.
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: you will find that the men and women that turned
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: the world upside down were the ones who got out
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: of their own way. Your insecurity has been in the
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: way too long. Your jealousy, your envy has been in
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: the way too long. The fear you've been wrestling with
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: has been in the way too long.
• 49:38
  Speaker 5: Get out of the way.
• 49:41
  Speaker 6: I need you to do something today that your future
• 49:45
  Speaker 6: self will thank you for. Don't you get it? Get
• 49:49
  Speaker 6: busy living. Get busy giving. All of you, give the
• 49:54
  Speaker 6: best of you. Not for you right now, but for
• 49:56
  Speaker 6: the you in the future.
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: Please, please do yourself a favor and dispense with the
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: excuses that you don't have time. Dispense with the excuse
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: that you're not good enough. Dispense with the excuse that
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: nobody will show up if I build it. That too
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: many people are better than me. Drop out of the,
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: I tried it last year and it didn't work. No,
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: you didn't work.
• 50:19
  Speaker 5: I get it. I get it.
• 50:21
  Speaker 13: If we pull up your history, we'll find a lot
• 50:23
  Speaker 13: of brokenness. We'll find a lot of trauma. We'll find
• 50:26
  Speaker 13: a lot of empty places. If we pull up your history,
• 50:29
  Speaker 13: we'll find a lot of failures.
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: This must be the year that you are not defined
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: by your history, but you fulfill your destiny.
• 50:39
  Speaker 5: Why are you here? What were you placed here to do?
• 50:44
  Speaker 5: Get to work.
• 50:50
  Speaker 10: This is the time that you must recognize that you
• 50:53
  Speaker 10: have something that is special. And it is time for
• 50:59
  Speaker 10: you to show up and give it everything you have
• 51:03
  Speaker 10: within yourself.
• 51:06
  Speaker 5: You can do all great.
• 51:07
  Speaker 10: Things within yourself if you just have the faith. You
• 51:13
  Speaker 10: got to be the one to prove them wrong and
• 51:17
  Speaker 10: let the world know that you do matter in this society,
• 51:20
  Speaker 10: that you have something great within you, that you have power,
• 51:25
  Speaker 10: that you have will, that you have strength.
• 51:29
  Speaker 5: Don't accept defeat. Don't accept excuses.
• 51:36
  Speaker 10: Don't accept the fact that you think that you don't
• 51:39
  Speaker 10: have what it takes when you know deep inside.
• 51:42
  Speaker 5: Yourself you have it.
• 51:45
  Speaker 6: They didn't realize that every setback of your life, they
• 51:48
  Speaker 6: didn't realize that every bad.
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: Day of your life, they didn't realize that.
• 51:52
  Speaker 6: Every sad day of your life, they didn't realize that
• 51:55
  Speaker 6: every so-called failure, disaster, missed opportunity, a tragedy was just
• 52:00
  Speaker 6: a building block of strategy and the agony, the pain,
• 52:03
  Speaker 6: the heartache, the misery was put in place to give
• 52:06
  Speaker 6: you the strength to rewrite history. Therefore, it should be
• 52:09
  Speaker 6: no mystery when you make a special delivery to the
• 52:12
  Speaker 6: doorsteps of victory.
• 52:16
  Speaker 10: When the rest of the world shuts you down, you
• 52:18
  Speaker 10: got to be willing to open up your mind and
• 52:20
  Speaker 10: your heart and accept the fact if you're going to
• 52:24
  Speaker 10: do it, then you.
• 52:24
  Speaker 5: Got to be the one to do it. You got
• 52:26
  Speaker 5: to be the one to believe in it.
• 52:30
  Speaker 10: You must understand that we all have.
• 52:33
  Speaker 5: Unique qualities within us.
• 52:38
  Speaker 10: But we have to apply ourselves day in and day out.
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: Yes, there are.
• 52:45
  Speaker 10: People out there right now that doubt you. And no
• 52:48
  Speaker 10: matter how hard you work at.
• 52:50
  Speaker 5: Your craft, they will still find some.
• 52:55
  Speaker 10: Fault in you. But when will you begin to realize
• 53:01
  Speaker 10: that all of the hard work, all of the struggles,
• 53:08
  Speaker 10: all of the mistakes, all of.
• 53:11
  Speaker 5: The setbacks, are just a part of your growth. Maybe
• 53:17
  Speaker 5: everybody is not going to accept you. But can you
• 53:21
  Speaker 5: accept yourself? Can you trust in yourself? Maybe you're going
• 53:28
  Speaker 5: to be the only one left standing. But at least
• 53:32
  Speaker 5: you're standing. And maybe you feel that you're standing alone.
• 53:38
  Speaker 5: But you're really not alone. Because you got so many ideas.
• 53:44
  Speaker 10: So much greatness within you right now that is flowing
• 53:47
  Speaker 10: through you right now.
• 53:50
  Speaker 5: So how can you believe that you are alone?
• 53:53
  Speaker 10: How can you believe that all of these things that
• 53:56
  Speaker 10: people have doubted you on, everybody that's been saying that
• 53:59
  Speaker 10: you're not going to make it, that you can't push forward,
• 54:02
  Speaker 10: that you're not going to be the best, and you
• 54:06
  Speaker 10: trusted them, and you believed in them, you believed in
• 54:11
  Speaker 10: the answers that they had for you, Instead of.
• 54:14
  Speaker 5: Answering your own question, am I good enough? Can I
• 54:21
  Speaker 5: be the best of myself?
• 54:24
  Speaker 10: The time has come for you to understand that you
• 54:28
  Speaker 10: cannot depend on the opinions of others. You cannot just
• 54:34
  Speaker 10: trust in the opinions of others. You cannot allow other
• 54:38
  Speaker 10: people to validate you.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: Because you Are just who you are.
• 54:47
  Speaker 10: Nobody is going to be like you. Nobody can be
• 54:51
  Speaker 10: as strong as you. Nobody can walk the walk like you.
• 54:57
  Speaker 10: That's what makes you different. That's what makes you unique.
• 55:02
  Speaker 10: So prove them wrong. But prove yourself to be right.
• 55:08
  Speaker 3: For so long.
• 55:10
  Speaker 6: You've known you had an inner beast inside. but you
• 55:13
  Speaker 6: were scared to bother it. For so long, you've known
• 55:17
  Speaker 6: you had an inner beast inside, but you were scared
• 55:21
  Speaker 6: to bother it. That's just like planting a seed and
• 55:25
  Speaker 6: then never watering it. Never making sure it's provided with
• 55:29
  Speaker 6: exposure to sunlight, basically just squandering it. But that version
• 55:34
  Speaker 6: of you no longer exists because from the depths of
• 55:37
  Speaker 6: your inner soul comes your inner beast and you are
• 55:41
  Speaker 6: now honoring it. That seed that was planted in your
• 55:45
  Speaker 6: soul has been patiently waiting. That seed that was planted
• 55:50
  Speaker 6: in your heart has been laying low for the perfect time.
• 55:54
  Speaker 6: That seed that was planted in your spirit has been
• 55:57
  Speaker 6: storing energy. That seed that was planted in your middle
• 56:01
  Speaker 6: has been digesting and processing. And when all of these forces.
• 56:05
  Speaker 3: Came together, they created the perfect.
• 56:07
  Speaker 6: Storm that set the stage for your inner beast to
• 56:09
  Speaker 6: be born. That set the stage for your inner beast
• 56:12
  Speaker 6: to take form.
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: That set the stage for your inner beast to transform.
• 56:16
  Speaker 6: That set the stage for your inner beast to break.
• 56:18
  Speaker 3: Through and swarm like a large group of bees.
• 56:21
  Speaker 6: And now you're ready to sting anyone that stands between
• 56:24
  Speaker 6: you and the stamp of greatness needed to make your
• 56:27
  Speaker 6: successful transformation official.
• 56:31
  Speaker 5: It must happen.
• 56:32
  Speaker 10: This way because this is the only way you're going
• 56:35
  Speaker 10: to know what you must do to get better at
• 56:38
  Speaker 10: whatever it is.
• 56:39
  Speaker 5: That you are seeking in your life. No one said
• 56:43
  Speaker 5: it was going to be easy.
• 56:46
  Speaker 10: In fact, nobody's really going to hold your hand.
• 56:51
  Speaker 5: But you got to have the ability to hold yourself up.
• 56:59
  Speaker 4: Don't put your future into someone else's hands.
• 57:03
  Speaker 5: You're not going to feel the process all the time.
• 57:06
  Speaker 5: You're not going to see it.
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: Some days you're not going to want to write about it.
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: You're not going to want to talk about it. You're
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: not going to want to think about it. You're going
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: to have migraines thinking about the sacrifices that are required
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: to get to this next level.
• 57:18
  Speaker 5: But just don't stop.
• 57:20
  Speaker 6: What if today was the day that success had your
• 57:26
  Speaker 6: name written on it?
• 57:28
  Speaker 3: Procrastination is the thief of destination.
• 57:35
  Speaker 4: Today, I want to remind you that you are not average.
• 57:40
  Speaker 4: I want to remind you that you have what it takes.
• 57:46
  Speaker 4: All you have right now is today. So give it
• 57:52
  Speaker 4: your all.
• 57:54
  Speaker 5: You've got this.
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: You miss the energy. There are no more tomorrows.
• 58:03
  Speaker 6: And you have to live like today is the last
• 58:05
  Speaker 6: day that you have a chance.
• 58:06
  Speaker 3: To achieve the things that you want to achieve. Today,
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: not tomorrow.
• 58:12
  Speaker 6: Stop looking back at what happened yesterday.
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: Don't let that deter you.
• 58:16
  Speaker 6: No fear, no doubt, no reservation.
• 58:19
  Speaker 3: See, success is reserved for you. So what's your hesitation?
• 58:22
  Speaker 4: So if you've been doubting yourself, Stop. If you've been
• 58:29
  Speaker 4: doubting your abilities, stop. If you've been putting yourself down, stop.
• 58:37
  Speaker 4: Because doubt is the enemy of progress.
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: You can get to a place in your life where
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: you are so tired.
• 58:46
  Speaker 5: That you can hardly move. They said if you look up,
• 58:52
  Speaker 5: you can get up. And you can be so fragmented
• 58:57
  Speaker 5: So beat up that you can't even open your eyes.
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: And so every opportunity that comes, every person that comes,
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: every wind of change that blows.
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: Your response is I do.
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: It tomorrow when I do it tomorrow I can wait
• 59:16
  Speaker 2: it can wait and that's because we've lost the urgency.
• 59:23
  Speaker 3: See tomorrow was promised to no one but you already
• 59:27
  Speaker 3: knew that This is your life. I need you to
• 59:31
  Speaker 3: own it. It's got to start right now, this very moment.
• 59:37
  Speaker 4: You've got to be willing to put in the work
• 59:39
  Speaker 4: when you feel like it. And you've got to be
• 59:42
  Speaker 4: willing to put in the work when you don't feel
• 59:45
  Speaker 4: like it. You've got to be willing to show up
• 59:48
  Speaker 4: when you feel confident. And you've got to be willing
• 59:51
  Speaker 4: to show up when you're feeling uncertain.
• 59:55
  Speaker 3: My future ain't at the game. My future ain't at
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: the mall.
• 59:57
  Speaker 6: My future is in me giving every ounce of my soul,
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 6: every ounce of my being, everything I got.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: No more tomorrows.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 5: Give everything you got today.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 3: There is absolutely no tomorrow.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 6: That needs to be your new mindset. That needs to
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 6: be your new mantra. I need you to get it through.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: Your thick skull.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 6: No one knows what will happen tomorrow. But today you
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 6: have to achieve more than you did yesterday.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 4: So take action today. Go after your dreams today. Get
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: out of your comfort zone today.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 5: Come on. You got to stop overthinking. Like you're thinking
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 5: this thing. You're thinking yourself out of it.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: And you're negotiating your path out of this obligation, this opportunity,
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: this moment in time where you could really become something,
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 2: really accomplish something. We've got to get to the place
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: where we have non-negotiables. Like, yo, I'm not negotiating myself
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: out of this.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 5: This is not a conversation I'm available for. I'm not
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 5: going to keep thinking myself out of destiny, out of purpose,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 5: out of connection. I don't have time.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 2: I'm completely unavailable. And every single day, I'm living like
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: it's my last. I'm putting it all on the table.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: The future is very expensive.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 13: I don't know what it is that you want to do,
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 13: but everybody's got something they want to do.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 5: Everybody's got something they want to become.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 2: Everybody's got somewhere they believe they've been destined to go.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: And oftentimes we don't hit these targets because we're not
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 2: considering the cost. Then I just want to share with
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: you things that you need to start sacrificing right now.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 13: Number one, your time. You got to get used to
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 13: sacrificing your time. If you're going to achieve it, if
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 13: you're going to become it, if you're going to go somewhere,
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 13: then you're going to learn how to have to sacrifice
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 13: your time.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 5: You can't have the future.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 13: And you don't know how to wake up at three
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 13: o'clock in the morning, four o'clock in the morning, five
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 13: o'clock in the morning. You can't have the future. You
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 13: will not be able to manifest if you're sleeping when
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 13: the world sleeps. So you got to learn how to
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 13: get up when everybody's sleeping. You only have 24 hours
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 13: in a day. You got to learn to manage the
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 13: time that is given to you. This means that you
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 13: can't binge watch your favorite television show every day. This
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 13: means that you can't be on social media every day.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 13: This means that you can't do whatever you want all
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 13: day and think you're going to manifest and become this
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 13: person and achieve this feat.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 5: It's not going to happen. Number two, you got to
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 5: surrender comfort.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 2: I need you to get out of your comfort zone
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: If you're going to be successful, if you're going to
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 2: achieve it, if you're going to become it, you've got
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: to break out of your comfort zone. Some of you,
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: you have financial goals, you have relational.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 13: Goals, you have health goals, but you're comfortable. You're comfortable
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 13: in the current toxic relationship you're in. You're comfortable being overweight.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: But I'm just wondering if there's anybody that's listening to
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: me that's just flat out tired of being comfortable.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 5: Number three, past versions of yourself.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 2: There is an irritation, there is an anguish and a
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: pain that we all carry when we show up in
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: a new season, the old version of ourselves. Every season
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: requires a new version of yourself. Another version of discipline
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: and focus and intentionality requires So you got to sacrifice
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: the old you. I know you keep celebrating small wins
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: and what you accomplished five years ago, two years ago,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: what you did in high school. I need you to
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: find a mirror. I need you to say goodbye to
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 2: the old version of yourself. In the next three to
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: six months, you're going to make you proud. The next
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 2: thing that's got to go is fear, pride, and ego.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 5: For many of us, fear.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: Is disguised as rational and practical. And fear is disguised
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 2: as a planning agent. I'm just planning out the process
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: and I'm just going to wait. I'm just kind of
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 2: walking myself through everything and processing everything.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 5: And so fear cloaks, fear.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: Disguises itself as process and.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 5: And I'm talking to you.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: I need you to find a mirror and I need
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: you to bind up the spirit of fear. And I
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: need you to tell yourself, I am not afraid.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 5: I am not afraid. If you were to ask me,
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 5: what do I fear? I don't fear starting.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 13: I fear never starting and sleeping on my potential. I'm
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 13: terrified of not manifesting and becoming the version of myself
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 13: I was destined to be. So the next thing you're
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 13: going to have to sacrifice is that vice. Now listen,
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 13: I don't know what your vice is. If you're trying
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 13: to lose weight, your vice could be ice cream, chips, cupcakes, cookies.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 13: If you're trying to be financially fit, your vice could
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 13: be splurging on clothes and entertainment and food and recreation.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 13: Sometimes you're going to have to surrender that month, that quarter,
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 13: that year. It takes a lifetime of discipline. Can you
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 13: surrender what you have possessed? Can you surrender what is
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 13: possessing you?
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 5: Some of you are possessed by social media. It's no
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 5: longer a servant.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 3: It is a master.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 13: Social media is a beautiful servant, but it is a
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 13: terrible master.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: Can you surrender social media? Can you surrender your time?
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: Can you surrender yourself? Can you surrender your mind? Can
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: you surrender your will? Can you stop choosing what's killing you?
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 13: If you're going to achieve it, if you're going to
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 13: manifest it, if you're going to do this thing, then
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 13: you're going to need some stamina.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 5: Come on, believe it.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: Come on, you got to start speaking that stamina over
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: your life, speaking that endurance over your life.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 13: Believe it, believe it. If you're going to be extraordinary,
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 13: And you can't make ordinary sacrifices. There are levels to sacrifice.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 13: There are sacrifices that everybody makes. Sacrifices in every scene
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 13: of our lives. And then there are some extraordinary sacrifices.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 13: You can't have the future if you can't surrender something
• 1:06:46
