- 1:29Speaker 1: live this lifestyle, but to get to the other side
- 1:31Speaker 1: of this, I have to. The only way you're ever
- 1:34Speaker 1: going to get to the other side of this journey
- 1:37Speaker 1: is you have got to suffer to grow.

- 1:57Speaker 2: this role we live in is tough. It's tough. It
- 1:59Speaker 2: will be you down.

- 2:09Speaker 1: if I can help you build belief, build confidence to
- 2:13Speaker 1: the point where nothing can hurt you because you know
- 2:16Speaker 1: exactly who you are. You have to build a person
- 2:19Speaker 1: that can withstand the pressures of whatever they're gonna be dealing.
- 2:23Speaker 2: With in life.
- 2:24Speaker 1: You gain knowledge through suffering, and on the other end
- 2:27Speaker 1: of suffering is a world that very few, very few
- 2:31Speaker 1: have ever seen. It's a beautiful world because that's where
- 2:34Speaker 1: you find yourself every day. You have to do this shit,
- 2:38Speaker 1: because why when you stop doing it, you'll just maintain it.
- 2:42Speaker 1: If you stop shooting a gun and not gonna be
- 2:44Speaker 1: a great shop if you pick a gun up a
- 2:45Speaker 1: year from now.

- 2:52Speaker 2: a bad mother.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Ever at which you do, you can be misunderstood by
- 2:56Speaker 1: everybody because you're gonna be so an obsessed and so
- 2:59Speaker 1: driven to get there.
- 3:00Speaker 2: That's what it takes, takes every second of your life.
- 3:02Speaker 1: Anybody says balance, Yeah, balance is important for a lot
- 3:05Speaker 1: of people.
- 3:06Speaker 2: It is. But if you want to go to.
- 3:08Speaker 1: That edge where people do not like you, don't understand
- 3:11Speaker 1: you question everything you do. You've arrived when you are
- 3:14Speaker 1: misunderstood to the point where people think you're psycho and
- 3:17Speaker 1: you're nuts and this and that. Why are you in
- 3:19Speaker 1: gym at one o'clock in the morning. You will never
- 3:23Speaker 1: understand what is wrong with me. And that's why I'm
- 3:26Speaker 1: so glad you don't, because I'm in the right spot.
- 3:29Speaker 2: When people don't understand you anymore.
- 3:31Speaker 1: You're in that spot of obsession and drive where people
- 3:34Speaker 1: at cliptoff is wrong with this guy.
- 3:36Speaker 2: I don't want to talk to you, man, because you're
- 3:38Speaker 2: not going to get it. I can't get this paragraph.
- 3:40Speaker 1: I can't remember what the this paragraph to pass this
- 3:43Speaker 1: test to get in the military. Read again, still not
- 3:45Speaker 1: getting it, read again, but not getting it right, it out,
- 3:48Speaker 1: And that's how I started learning. I can't swim. I'm
- 3:51Speaker 1: negative voyan go back again. I can't swim, go back again,
- 3:55Speaker 1: go back again, go back again.
- 3:58Speaker 2: I got it.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Realize if I keep going back and going back and
- 4:03Speaker 1: going back until this shit just becomes your mind will say, Okay,
- 4:09Speaker 1: we're gonna figure it.
- 4:10Speaker 2: Out, because he is not going to stop. It's not
- 4:13Speaker 2: like I'm gonna try one more time, No, I'm gonna It's.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Just like mom clock goes off, boom, We're going back.
- 4:20Speaker 2: I can't read right, We're going back. I gave myself
- 4:22Speaker 2: no way out, and my mind realized that they said, Okay,
- 4:25Speaker 2: we're gonna adapt and overcome.
- 4:27Speaker 1: Now. A lot of us want to find peace first,
- 4:30Speaker 1: So people say, many you always talk about this suffering
- 4:32Speaker 1: and pain and shit, I'm at peace right now because
- 4:35Speaker 1: I went through that. You don't find peace first. If
- 4:38Speaker 1: you do, Merry Christmas, more power to you. I found
- 4:41Speaker 1: peace on the opposite end of finding myself, and no
- 4:46Speaker 1: one really finds himself without going through trials, tribulations, suffering.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Accountability and accountability is suffering, being accountable everything day, for
- 4:58Speaker 1: doing right for yourself the people next to you. It's miserable.
- 5:01Speaker 1: One thing we don't do is we don't have a
- 5:03Speaker 1: new norm. My new norm is you can get every
- 5:05Speaker 1: more than at four o'clock and you suffer. This is
- 5:07Speaker 1: your new norm. That became my new life. Most people
- 5:10Speaker 1: want to get out of it. I said, no, I'm
- 5:12Speaker 1: this is your new life. This is who you are.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Your new norm is you wake up and you suffer.
- 5:18Speaker 1: And I started realizing, if that's my mentality, this should
- 5:21Speaker 1: ain't hard anymore. Not giving civilized is about having a
- 5:28Speaker 1: savage mentality.
- 5:30Speaker 2: It's a comfortable world.
- 5:32Speaker 1: A lot of us say, you know, like, for instance,
- 5:33Speaker 1: I see these athletes right now who retire.
- 5:35Speaker 2: You know, I'm thirty eight. You know, I'm thirty nine.
- 5:38Speaker 1: I did twenty years at the top of my game
- 5:41Speaker 1: and I'm chilling out now.
- 5:42Speaker 2: You see them a year later, and how they look,
- 5:45Speaker 2: What the hell just happened to you? What the hell?
- 5:47Speaker 2: You're one of the greatest athletes of all time. Kids
- 5:50Speaker 2: looked up to.
- 5:51Speaker 1: Your, women, men of all ages looked up to you,
- 5:54Speaker 1: and they hit the pinnacle where it's trying to retire
- 5:57Speaker 1: and their mind says, wow, I'm civil The worst thing
- 6:00Speaker 1: that could ever happen to any human being is they
- 6:03Speaker 1: become civilized. It's that total accountability. Like even when you're retired,
- 6:07Speaker 1: there's a mother looking at me and judging me.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Right now, man, I was the baddest person to ever live.
- 6:14Speaker 2: Doesn't go away. Man, you got to wake up. Even
- 6:16Speaker 2: though you.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Retired, you're never retired. You're setting the example every single
- 6:22Speaker 1: day of your life and being civilized feeling so good.
- 6:25Speaker 2: I'm sorry, man.
- 6:26Speaker 1: Once you get to the top, you may retire, but
- 6:29Speaker 1: you ain't never coming back home. Man, And now you're judged.
- 6:32Speaker 1: People see you falling off. You want to be that
- 6:34Speaker 1: guy who knows I may be retired from the sport
- 6:37Speaker 1: or forever I did, but I'd be damn if you
- 6:40Speaker 1: ever see me looking like shit, feeling like shit, not
- 6:43Speaker 1: arriving people. I've arrived. I've arrived. Mentality, You're always setting
- 6:48Speaker 1: the example. Civilization feels so good. These comfortable feelings are
- 6:54Speaker 1: what people want. They want retirement, they want that, they
- 6:57Speaker 1: need that. They it's a yearning feeling. I want it
- 7:00Speaker 1: to people love putting a label on me about my god.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Man, you're just wired different. I wired different, dude.
- 7:09Speaker 1: I'm thinking right now. After I got past my stuttering thing.
- 7:11Speaker 1: Now I'm on a roll. I'm good now, know I'm
- 7:13Speaker 1: thinking about right now. I gotta wake up tomorrow and
- 7:16Speaker 1: do the same shit again. I gotta leave this interview
- 7:19Speaker 1: and go stretch.
- 7:20Speaker 2: Out for two and a half hours. I hate that shit,
- 7:24Speaker 2: but guess what it does.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Though, I'm constantly callous and over my victim's mentality that
- 7:30Speaker 1: I once had growing up. Every day, you have to
- 7:33Speaker 1: do this shit. The only way to keep from getting
- 7:36Speaker 1: rusty is to constantly owe that mother machine.
- 7:39Speaker 2: The machine is this.
- 7:41Speaker 1: You got to keep challenging it every day.
- 7:47Speaker 2: How do I do it? How am I able to
- 7:50Speaker 2: do what I do on a daily basis?
- 7:52Speaker 1: You know? How do I fight the demons because they
- 7:55Speaker 1: hear me speak and I'm very raw.
- 7:56Speaker 2: I'm real. How do you fight my insecurity? These all
- 8:00Speaker 2: these things and.
- 8:03Speaker 1: There every day, every day, I'm in search for a feeling.
- 8:08Speaker 1: I'm not in search for a trophy. I'm not in
- 8:09Speaker 1: search for love. I'm not in source for more followers
- 8:12Speaker 1: on Instagram or social media. When I started this journey
- 8:15Speaker 1: years ago and I realized that I'm going to be somebody,
- 8:19Speaker 1: and I'm searching for a feeling, a feeling of true
- 8:22Speaker 1: victory for myself and only myself. The second I shut
- 8:26Speaker 1: out the whole world and realize that one thing that
- 8:30Speaker 1: I am in this world alone, I'm fighting in this
- 8:33Speaker 1: race by myself. Yeah, I'm all about people, I'm all
- 8:37Speaker 1: about team, I'm all about that shit.
- 8:39Speaker 2: But I'm really all about.
- 8:41Speaker 1: Right now and in my life, no one knows the
- 8:44Speaker 1: real truth about me, how hard I really go. I
- 8:48Speaker 1: don't care if anybody knows. I want anybody to know.
- 8:52Speaker 1: I'm an introvert. I live an introverted life and I
- 8:55Speaker 1: love that about me. That right there is my fuel
- 8:59Speaker 1: is I know that there's really no one out there
- 9:02Speaker 1: grinding like me, and if they are, so be it.
- 9:05Speaker 2: If I know about you.
- 9:07Speaker 1: I'll make sure that my gang. That's what the mentality
- 9:11Speaker 1: is all about. My whole thing is a mentality thing.
- 9:15Speaker 1: I view myself as the weakest person on the planet Earth.
- 9:19Speaker 1: I was just an insecure, scared kid, and the only
- 9:23Speaker 1: way I could find myself was through putting myself through
- 9:27Speaker 1: the worst thing possible. My goal in life was to,
- 9:33Speaker 1: in my mind believe I'm the hardest man alive. And
- 9:37Speaker 1: that's why the whole thing is can't hurt me, That's
- 9:40Speaker 1: what it's about. It's about whatever you think you are.
- 9:44Speaker 1: You have to make that dream of reality. But that's
- 9:46Speaker 1: where the hard part is is making that dream reality,
- 9:50Speaker 1: and that's where the hard work come is. That's where
- 9:51Speaker 1: people know, how do you keep grinding every day? You
- 9:54Speaker 1: have to make those insecurities, those fears. Like when I
- 9:57Speaker 1: was there as of pounds, I didn't have any dry
- 10:00Speaker 1: I'm gonna go be a Navy seal? What kind of
- 10:01Speaker 1: stupid shit is that three hundred pounds? There weren't like
- 10:04Speaker 1: a drive to go be a Navy seal. I was
- 10:06Speaker 1: an insecure, lying kid, afraid. I had to look at
- 10:11Speaker 1: my insecurities and in my fear and find drive in
- 10:14Speaker 1: that we're all looking for passion, passions all around you.
- 10:20Speaker 1: You have a whole sack of it all around you.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Your insecurities, all that shit. You gotta dive deep in
- 10:25Speaker 1: that shit. It's all in there. All the energy and
- 10:29Speaker 1: fuel you need is right in yourself. It's all there.
- 10:33Speaker 1: You got a lot of stuff to do to overcome.
- 10:36Speaker 1: And you know that's where I found it. I found
- 10:39Speaker 1: it right there in my own insecurities. I found drive
- 10:41Speaker 1: in my own insecurities. And that's the most powerful thing
- 10:45Speaker 1: in the world.
- 10:47Speaker 2: When you can
- 10:47Speaker 1: Find drive in your own doubt, fear, insecurities, you become
- 10:55Speaker 1: very unstoppable.
