  Speaker 1: Discipline is the single most important thing that you can
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: use when it comes to being successful. They want an
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: easier answer. There has to be an easier way. There's not.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: I searched for it my entire life.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Motivation is fleeting. No one wakes up motivated every single day.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: The key to success that you're looking for, the thing
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: that's going to make your dreams come true is simple discipline.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Every person needs to be their own hero. You need
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: to be the hero of your own story. Nobody's coming
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: to save you. Nobody's coming to help you.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: And so I would copy the comic books and the
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: heroes and they had muscles and I was like, one
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: day I'm going to be like that.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: You have to suffer a little bit. You have to
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: put yourself in a state of discomfort. Growth shouldn't be easy.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Stop looking for shortcuts. Stop looking to make things a breeze.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: We're built to walk uphill. And when you reach the
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: pinnacle of the hill, you want to stop and appreciate
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: the vision. But the next thing you want is a
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: higher hill in the distance. You've got to learn to suffer.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: You've got to put yourself in a bit of an
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: uncomfortable position. And if you can do that, then the
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: results that have eluded you, you'll start to see them.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: There's no such thing as a free lunch. There's no
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: magic pill. And there are no three easy payments of $ 9. 99.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: If you want something, if you want to be good
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: at something, you want to accomplish something, you've got to
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: put in the time.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: Because without that work ethic, greatness cannot be achieved. So
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: you've got to really love what you're doing. You have
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: to just go at it wholeheartedly. You've got to put
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: everything into it. You've got to obsess over it.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: If you want to be good at something, you've got
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: to do it every day. Like we look at people
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: like LeBron James. Why is he good at basketball? Because
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: he does it every day. You look at Wayne Gretzky
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: in hockey because he did it every day. And so
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: my number one piece of advice to people, if you
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: want to be good at something, whatever that thing that
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: you desire is, whatever your passion is, Do it every
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: single day. That's the real secret to success.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: From 22 to 34, I worked every day.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I went out no weekends. I worked every day. Every day.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: And if you want it, you want it. I wanted it.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: So this idea of doing something every single day, just
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: do the thing every day and be 100% present. Focus
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: on the process. Don't focus on the end result. Again,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: if you show up, if you're all in and do
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: that day after day after day, rewards will come. Don't
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: let your emotions control your actions or don't let your
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: feelings control your actions. Rather, let your actions control your feelings.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: And so it's okay to feel bad. It's okay to
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: be depressed. It's okay to be sad. But don't act bad.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Don't act depressed. Don't act sad. Do something about it.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Failure, hell, disappointment, discomfort is a great learning tool. And
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: many people don't understand that. But it's these few moments
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: in life that you have. Like for me, I always
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: talk about it. Rocky won round 14. That one two
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: minute and 13 second clip of Rocky getting up when
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: Apollo knocked him down. That one clip, when I was
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: going through a very bad time in my life, I saw.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: What I wanted to be.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: And it wasn't a.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Guy that won.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: It wasn't a guy that won everything he did. It
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: was a guy that kept getting up after being knocked down.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: On those days where you don't want to get out
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: of bed, get out of bed. Go for a walk.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Nourish yourself. Do some exercises. Spend some time in the sun.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: And it's amazing how those negative feelings turn around. So again,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: don't let your feelings dictate your actions. Let your actions
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: dictate your feelings. When we're young, we think things are
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: just going to fall into our lap. We think opportunities
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: are going to be there forever. We think that it's
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: going to be our turn. But the reality is, You
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: need to work hard for it, and you need to
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: work hard for a really, really long time.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: When I realized that I can learn, do hard work,
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: and I can beat the valedictorian in school, but I
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: got put in 10 hours more a day than he does.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: You know what kind of strength comes from that? When
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: you're sitting down, that guy, that valedictorian study for an hour,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: and you know I caught you.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: I caught you, and I am.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: But I have the work ethic to catch you.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Having a discipline every day to say, for me to
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: learn this one math problem, it's gonna take me 10 hours.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: So don't lose faith. Don't get down on yourself. Don't
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: get depressed. Don't get sad. If you show up, if
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: you be the hardest worker in the room and you
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: do it for long enough, and I'm not talking even
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: months or years, I'm talking decades. I promise you that
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: your time will come. The second rule, be all in.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: When you're here, when you're in a physical space, when
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: you're working out, I don't want your eyes on the TV.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: I don't want you text messaging. I don't want you
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: playing on social media. I want you to be 100% present.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I want you to be all in and get the
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: most out of your time. Where I got my work
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: ethic from.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Was the hours I had to spend learning this.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: I always tell people there's 168 hours in a week.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: If you get eight hours sleep a night, Well, there's
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: 50 plus hours gone. You still have 110, 112 hours left.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: If you work 60 hours a week, you still have
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: 55 hours left to go do what's important to you.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: So I don't really buy the time excuse, but that's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: the number one excuse that I hear. The number two
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: excuse is I don't know how, but we're fortunate. Like
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: people rip on social media. But we're fortunate to live
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: in a day and age where with the click of
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: a button, you have access to a wealth of information.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Whatever it is you're interested in, it doesn't matter. You
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: can find some good quality information with the click of
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: a button. So the whole, I don't know how, that's
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: not an excuse either. And those are the two most
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: common ones. What it really comes down to is people
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: just don't want it bad enough. Because I've seen countless
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: examples of people that will say they don't have time,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: that say they don't know how, but when something becomes
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: important enough for them, they figure it out.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: At the end of it all, if you can sit
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: back and wait, if you can wait 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: 12 years, when you get to that point, when you finish,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: that's the feeling for 12 years.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: It says they wait 12 years to get there.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: That's what keeps you going, is you've got to feel it.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: I want, I'm doing it for one second.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Years of pain. For one second. Every minute matters. Five
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: minutes is better than no minutes. 10 minutes is better
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: than five minutes. 15 minutes is better than 10 minutes
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: and so on. And so every bit of work that
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: you can do will get you closer to your goal.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Don't give up. If you want something, if you're willing
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: to work for it, if you're willing to put in
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: an honest effort, if you're willing to show up every
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: day and you're willing to be all in, I promise
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: you again, it might not be tomorrow. It might not
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: be next week. It might not even be next year.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: But I promise you 100% your time will come and
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: good things will happen. And far too many of us
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: give up before we see the rewards. We give up
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: too early. And if we just had a little bit
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: of perseverance, if we just worked a little bit harder
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: and just took it a day at a time, our
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: dreams would come true. So that would be my advice.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Don't give up.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
