  Speaker 1: All right, guys, here we are last break of the
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: day on this Tuesday. It's been a fun day. Thank
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: you guys for listening. As always, we appreciate you. Steve,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: if you want to take us down, you know my
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: close remarks. It is kind of what Junior and I
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: had talked about in the opening. Junior's question to me was,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: unc how do you measure success? And I thought that
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: was a great question because what a lot of people
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: do is they make the mistake of measuring their success
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: up against others. There's a saying that says comparison is
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: the greatest thief of joy. If you want to feel badly,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: just start comparing yourself. It's somebody somewhere always doing better
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: than you, or appearing to do better than you, or
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: claiming to do better than you, are fronting to be
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: doing better than you. You don't really know what's going
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: on in people's lives because they don't let you see
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: behind the curtain. They got an Instagram account where they
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: post the absolute best polls and they absolute best outfit,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: and you sitting up here on every time I see them,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: they this and theate that that's the part they want
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: you to see. Stop comparing yourself to other people. Comparison
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: is the greatest thief of joy. If you want to
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: truly measure your success, I'll tell you something else. Don't
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: look at your success and base it on how close
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: you are to your goals. Don't use that as a
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: measure of success. Don't use as a measure of success
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: to look at all you've accomplished in hopes of accomplishing more.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Here's the way to really measure your success. Take a
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: look at where you are right now and compare it
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: to where you came from. There's your measurement for success.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: And if that don't brighten up your day and make
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: you feel better, something's wrong. Because as far away as
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: you may be from your goal and your aspiration and
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: your desired or mount or achievement, as far away as
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: you are, have you ever really thought about how far
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: you've come? Have you ever sat down and just said, man,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: I remember when I remember when I was complaining the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: other day and I had to remind myself of a
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: quote because I was just I was just swamp. I
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: was just I just felt the weight of the world.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I was just felt like, man, it was really getting
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: to be a lot, and for a brief moment, I
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: registered a complaint, and then I remember the quote that
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: I've said at a hundred times. You can't complain about
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: what all is on your plate when your whole gold
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: was to eat. Remember that, Steve, Remember man, when you
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: just wanted to be able to pull your chair to
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the table with everybody else and just get down, just
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: be able to feast. Well, now you at the table.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: You've earned your seat at the table. And now you're
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: looking at all this on your complaint on your table,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: and you complaining. Now, man, you can't complain about what
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: all is on your plate when your whole gold was
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to eat. You just wanted to eat. Now you have
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: an abundance to eat. Now you complaining? Man, Stop Stop,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Remember where you row, where you from. See you know
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: what really keeps me grounded. I constantly remind myself that
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: I was homeless. I constantly remind myself that I wasn't
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the one getting picked. I remind myself of all the
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: people who wrote me off. I remind myself of flunking
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: out of college. I remind myself of the lady telling
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: me you'll never amount to anything. I remind myself and
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: not to be hateful to them, but to remember how
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: far I've come from. That's what it is for I've
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: learned so many valuable lessons in life, and the best
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: one I learned recently. Here's the best thing I learned recently.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I don't walk away to teach nobody a lesson. I
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: walk away because I done learned mine. See that's a
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: whole nother world. I'm walking away because I done learn
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: my lesson. Man, I'm not I would rather adjust my
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: life to live without you than to adjust the boundaries
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: that you have set for me. That I confine in
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: those boundaries of disrespect you have for me, man, miss
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: me with all that I'm not fitting them, shrink myself
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: down no more for nobody to fit in your he
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: okay category or he a nice guy? Yo. Man, Hey, look,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm a good person. But because you're a good person,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: don't mean you have to be a nice guy all
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: the time. That don't make no sense because people gonna
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: take advantage of that. Just be a good person. But
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: being a good person don't mean you have to be
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: a nice guy. Nice guys comply with everything everybody want.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: That ain't how you live your life. You gotta tell
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: people no, you gotta protect your peace. You gotta get
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: yourself in a place and realize, hey man, I'm peaceful
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: over here. You're not coming here interrupting my peace. I
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: got a text from a guy the other day, a
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: text asked me for fifty thousand dollars in a text,
