  Speaker 2: really been through it. I kid you not.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: I used to say, Okay, God, you know, why is
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: all this happening to me? But as I've gotten older,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: I understand that was the ingredients. I needed the ingredients
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: to be this cake. I needed all those ingredients stirred up.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I need all of that different flavors, the stuff that
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I didn't think tastes so good. All that stuff had
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: to come into the bowl in order for me to
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: get to where I am today.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: As much as I did not like the taste.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Of the ingredients, little did I know God was making
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: this cake, not me. But what he did was and
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: you've heard the old saying God could turn lemons into lemonade.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Well that's what he was doing now.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: At the time, it all had a little funky lemonade
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: lemony flavor to it, with some other stuff in it too.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I didn't care for it.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: But little did I know that I needed everything that
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: happened to me, that happened to me, in the exact
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: order that it happened, and the exact array of things
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: that happened for me to have the knowledge I have today,
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: the experience, the attitude, so I could turn around and
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: share that information. Okay, got that out the way. This
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: is what I want to give to you today. I
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: want you to understand something that discipline determines your destiny,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: not your desire. Discipline determines your destiny, not your desire.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: You've heard me say this how many times on the show. Okay,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: here we go again, Steve, I got it. Faith without
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: works is dead.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: But let me tell you something.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: To be a hard worker, you got to be disciplined.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: That's one of the hardest lessons I'm trying to get
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: through to my sons. You're gonna throw yourself down a
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: cliff if you're not a young man or a man
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: that possesses discipline. Because they got something for undisciplined people.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: They got some street laws for undisciplined people, and they
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: got some federal laws and state laws for undisciplined people.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: See that's why them signs is outside on the freeway,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: we're gonna let you go fast. But seventy is the limit.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Seventy fast enough. Really, if you're disciplined enough of a
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: person to leave your house at the time you're supposed
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: to leave your house.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Seventy miles per hour is absolutely enough.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: But if you're an undisciplined person, if you don't have
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: the wherewithal to leave your house on time, to get
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: ready to go where you wanna go. See the desires
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: where you wanna go. The discipline is how you get there.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: You understand, you can wanna go to see your family
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: in California all you want, But the flight leaves at
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: one eighteen.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: You leave your house at twelve thirty.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: They told you you must check in one hour before
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: your flight. Now, if you ain't got the discipline to
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: get to the airport to check in one hour before
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: your flight, leaving your house forty five minutes before the
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: flight departs, what you think gonna happen?
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Your desire to go see.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Your family in LA is going to be thwarted because
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: you lack the discipline to prepare yourself and get yourself
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: ready to do the things that you have to do
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: to make your your desires come true. I'm telling you,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: discipline determines your destiny, not your desire. You can write
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: down a list of stuff you wanna do all day,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: but if you don't produce and show the discipline necessary
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: to get there, what you think gonna happen?
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Huh? Okay.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: I wanna be rich, Okay, I wanna make four hundred
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: thousand a year. Okay, I wanna be the best player.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: That they is. Okay, but you don't want practice.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: See the cat that's disciplined enough to show up at practice,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: that's shooting jumpers when everybody gone home, that's the guy
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: that's gonna be the best. The guy that's never late
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: for practice, the guy to study the playbook, that's the
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: guy that's gonna make it. Not the guy that's talking crack,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: got stalking that smack. I'm gonna make the Pro Bowl,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna make the All Star Team, I'm gonna be
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: All American.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: That's just what you're saying.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: But discipline determines your destiny, not your desire. Now, let's
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: talk about this discipline. What is that, really, Steve. That's
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: your work ethic, that's your hunger, that's your wheel. Discipline
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: is how hard you're willing to demonstrate the attributes and
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: the traits to be what you want to be.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Did you hear me?
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: It is your willingness to conduct yourself in a manner
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: that is above and beyond what they say is necessary.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Now, this is a good example right here.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Now, you can want to be in the NFL all
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: you want, but they got this thing called the NFL
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Combines where they bring in some of the top players
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: at every position to come in and they gonna run
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: a forty yard dash, They're gonna do a standing broad jump,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: They're gonna do a standing vertical leap.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: They gonna do.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Drills, running drills, cutting drills.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: They can determine if a line back of God's stiff
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: hips by making him backpedal, point him in one direction
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: and throw the football in another direction, how does he
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: turn his body? Now you can say you can tell
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: everybody at your college you want to play pro football.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: You can tell everybody at your high school. You can
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: tell them in Peewee. You wanna play pro football, but
• 6:15

• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Now you get out here and you have a bad
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: combine day, Ain't nobody trying to hear that. Let me
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: tell you how excuses don't work with people when they
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: just trying to get when they trying to win. In
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: the NFL, the fact that you had a bad day
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: at the combine and you don't run your best forties
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: and you keep telling them you could do better, they
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: don't want to hear that. Because see, what ain't nobody

  Speaker 2: that's one of your bad days. We paying you to
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: play on Sundays. But because you keep having these bad days,

  Speaker 2: to make sure that your maximum can be called upon
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: at any time. Now you at to combine with some
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: slow times that go on your record.
