- 0:00Speaker 1: You know what, I just want to remind something, to
- 0:02Speaker 1: remind a lot of people something about success. And I'm
- 0:08Speaker 1: talking to myself today too. Success is hard. It really
- 0:15Speaker 1: is just hard. It's hard to be successful, but it's
- 0:21Speaker 1: hard not being successful. I've been both. I've been non
- 0:25Speaker 1: successful and I've had a measure of success. And I'm
- 0:30Speaker 1: telling you right now it is far better to be successful.
- 0:34Speaker 1: And even though it's hard, being successful will create for
- 0:38Speaker 1: you and your family options. Success will allow you to
- 0:45Speaker 1: have some form of a lifestyle that you desire. Listen
- 0:51Speaker 1: to me, It's nice to move into the neighborhood that
- 0:55Speaker 1: you've been driving through that you dream of, to pull
- 1:00Speaker 1: your car up in front of the house that you
- 1:03Speaker 1: love to walk into. It's nice to drive the car
- 1:08Speaker 1: that you want to drive. It's nice to be able
- 1:14Speaker 1: to go somewhere and provide groceries for your family. It's
- 1:21Speaker 1: nice to be able to take your children shopping for
- 1:25Speaker 1: school clothes. It's nice to be able to discuss having
- 1:30Speaker 1: a vacation in the summertime and take your family to
- 1:34Speaker 1: the beach, or take your family on vacation somewhere. It's nice,
- 1:38Speaker 1: but you know what that comes from. That comes from
- 1:40Speaker 1: having the option to do that. And you know what,
- 1:43Speaker 1: that option comes from, you having a measure of success.
- 1:48Speaker 1: But it's hard. It's really really hard to become successful.
- 1:55Speaker 1: And I don't care what measure of success you're talking about.
- 2:00Speaker 1: It comes with its set of challenges. So what I'm
- 2:03Speaker 1: here to do to tell you today is when you
- 2:07Speaker 1: make up in your mind to be successful, you got
- 2:10Speaker 1: to be ready to fight. You got to be ready
- 2:14Speaker 1: to fight, and the fight comes to you. You ain't
- 2:17Speaker 1: got to go to the fight. The fight presents itself.
- 2:22Speaker 1: It ain't it's not an option. It ain't no, and
- 2:27Speaker 1: it ain't look it just ain't no other way round it.
- 2:32Speaker 1: Let's go. It's coming and it comes with all the challenges,
- 2:41Speaker 1: all of the setbacks, all of the hardships and disappointments.
- 2:45Speaker 1: But you got to keep fighting, y'all. And it's worth
- 2:47Speaker 1: to fight because guess what, it's hard. One of the
- 2:50Speaker 1: callers today, the lady, was saying how she was struggling
- 2:53Speaker 1: to get in shape, and she really wants shape and
- 2:56Speaker 1: wanted to get in shape, but she's not sure how
- 2:58Speaker 1: to do it. She's confus used about because she's getting
- 3:01Speaker 1: so much mixed information. It's hard to get in shape.
- 3:04Speaker 1: It really is. But I got news for you. It's
- 3:06Speaker 1: hard not being in shape. It's hard walking up a
- 3:10Speaker 1: flight of steps when you out of shape. It's horrible
- 3:14Speaker 1: when you look at that escalator and it ain't on
- 3:17Speaker 1: at them all. But you gotta go upstairs and you
- 3:19Speaker 1: gotta walk up them steps. It's hard. Yeah, man, it's hard.
- 3:27Speaker 1: It's hard opening a business. It's hard becoming an entrepreneur,
- 3:31Speaker 1: becoming your own boss, opening up a company. Yeah, it's hard.
- 3:34Speaker 1: But ain't it hard to go to a job you
- 3:36Speaker 1: can't stand every day? Ain't that hard? Man? Getting out
- 3:41Speaker 1: of bed, realizing that you didn't pursue your dreams, that
- 3:45Speaker 1: you didn't chase success like you should have, and you
- 3:48Speaker 1: wound up somewhere where you didn't really want to be,
- 3:50Speaker 1: and you're too scared to change it because it's providing
- 3:53Speaker 1: the job, because you now you don't even have the
- 3:55Speaker 1: courage to go and put in another application because you
- 3:58Speaker 1: don't want the period between being employed and unemployed? Ain't
- 4:02Speaker 1: that hard? Yeah, it's hard. Getting a divorce, it's hard,
- 4:10Speaker 1: breaking up with somebody. It's hard, But ain't it hard
- 4:16Speaker 1: living there in misery with somebody that they ain't in
- 4:18Speaker 1: love with you no more that you don't love no more?
- 4:21Speaker 1: Ain't it hard living with somebody that's verbally abusive to you?
- 4:25Speaker 1: Ain't it hard being unhappy? Yeah? Man, it's hard. But
- 4:32Speaker 1: you got to pick your heart in life because it's
- 4:36Speaker 1: all hard, and to have any measure of success, it's
- 4:40Speaker 1: going to be hard. Buckle up, y'all, grit your teeth,
- 4:44Speaker 1: brace your back, put a bend in your knee, and
- 4:47Speaker 1: get ready man, because the attacks is coming. But you
- 4:50Speaker 1: can do it because the millions of people have done
- 4:53Speaker 1: it before you. I can't believe I'm getting a divorce, man,
- 4:57Speaker 1: You know how many people in divorced? Stop crying, Judge
- 5:03Speaker 1: lenn told he said the best advice I ever heard
- 5:05Speaker 1: to give. A woman said her grandmama told her, don't
- 5:08Speaker 1: let a man have to tell you twice he don't
- 5:10Speaker 1: want you what you crying about him for. He didn't
- 5:14Speaker 1: want you. By you can get somebody to want you. Man.
