- 0:03Speaker 1: you're going to fail, and you're going to fail.
- 0:06Speaker 2: And then you're going to win.
- 0:09Speaker 3: It doesn't matter how hard you work that I'm willing
- 0:12Speaker 3: to work harder than you.
- 0:14Speaker 1: Your excuse is will destroy you and take everything that
- 0:17Speaker 1: you ever wanted from you.
- 0:19Speaker 4: If you let them.
- 0:20Speaker 2: No one will out work me, No one tired. Tired
- 0:26Speaker 2: is only in the mind. You tell yourself be tired.
- 0:29Speaker 2: You're gonna be tired. You got to be hungry.
- 0:32Speaker 5: People that are hungry are willing to do the thing
- 0:36Speaker 5: today others won't do.
- 0:38Speaker 6: And you have one lights. Don't settle to mediocrity, of course.
- 0:41Speaker 2: Tall do it. Don't work. It's nothing the rest at
- 0:44Speaker 2: the end, not in the middle.
- 0:46Speaker 7: A lot of people wait for perfect conditions to start,
- 0:49Speaker 7: but don't realize that starting is the perfect condition.
- 0:52Speaker 2: There's no excuse not to be the hardest one worker in.
- 0:55Speaker 6: The room, and the only regret would be not doing
- 0:58Speaker 6: it soon.
- 0:59Speaker 8: Now it's pushing the water and there's a jogger. Actually,
- 1:06Speaker 8: look at this. Wow, the Florida man right there for you, Blake,
- 1:09Speaker 8: jogging in the hurricane.
- 1:11Speaker 6: I'll tell you something, This is an elementary school. This
- 1:15Speaker 6: is hard work, long hours, high pressure. I need a
- 1:18Speaker 6: grown goddamn man.
- 1:21Speaker 2: You might have more talent than me.
- 1:23Speaker 9: You might be smarter than me, you might be sexier
- 1:26Speaker 9: than me, you might be all of those things.
- 1:29Speaker 10: You got it on me in nine categories.
- 1:32Speaker 2: But if we get on the treadmill together, right, there's
- 1:35Speaker 2: two things. You're getting off first or I'm gonna die.
- 1:40Speaker 11: There's gonna be more times you do something that you
- 1:42Speaker 11: don't want to do, then you are going to want
- 1:45Speaker 11: to do it, and that's your new norm.
- 1:48Speaker 2: That's your new norm. So then it's like breathing. And
- 1:51Speaker 2: then once you do this over and over and over again,
- 1:55Speaker 2: it becomes like breathing.
- 1:57Speaker 11: I don't want to live this lifestyle, but to get
- 1:59Speaker 11: to the other side of it this I have to.
- 2:02Speaker 11: So if you really want it, you realize what trying
- 2:05Speaker 11: is and what trying is not.
- 2:07Speaker 12: Eventually in action will cost you, But.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Your default settings should be I'm gonna do something.
- 2:13Speaker 12: Just get up, move towards that challenge, and go attack it.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Life without those challenges it's just existence. Don't just exist,
- 2:29Speaker 1: go live.
- 2:31Speaker 13: My best words is dedication and art work. To achieve
- 2:34Speaker 13: these kind of things, you need to work hard, and
- 2:36Speaker 13: you know we all live talent, but talent without the work.
- 2:41Speaker 6: It's nothing. Jimmy Cobb broke my brain with this one.
- 2:47Speaker 14: Everyone is jealous of what you've got, no one is
- 2:50Speaker 14: jealous of how you got it. People see the trophies,
- 2:54Speaker 14: but not the training ground.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Everybody wants the view, but no one wants to climb.
- 2:58Speaker 15: The only true test of intelligence is if you get
- 3:00Speaker 15: what you want out of life. And there are two
- 3:03Speaker 15: parts to that. One is getting what you want so
- 3:06Speaker 15: you know how to get it, and the second is
- 3:08Speaker 15: wanting the right things, knowing what to want in the
- 3:10Speaker 15: first place, because the.
- 3:11Speaker 16: Situation in circumstance stop out level of commitment and dedication
- 3:16Speaker 16: to what we say we want, Like, are.
- 3:18Speaker 2: We really pursuing greatness? Are we really pursuing excellence?
- 3:22Speaker 16: I guess like when the Kobe Bryant said, I was
- 3:24Speaker 16: chasing excellence and I was trying to be perfect, even
- 3:27Speaker 16: though I knew I will probably never catch it.
- 3:29Speaker 2: But just the fact that I was willing.
- 3:30Speaker 16: To chase something that I knew I would probably never attain,
- 3:33Speaker 16: I would beat and dominate most of my opponents and
- 3:35Speaker 16: most of my competitors because they would never chase something
- 3:38Speaker 16: that they knew didn't have any guarantees.
- 3:40Speaker 17: To success is constant movements, constant movements, never.
- 3:46Speaker 18: Letting the wait drop until a pain sense to loow mentality.
- 3:49Speaker 2: That's growth.
- 3:49Speaker 19: Every single time you pick something up, you pick it
- 3:52Speaker 19: up for a purpose. That's why everything has a purpose.
- 3:54Speaker 19: Everything has a result. We're here to get stronger. In
- 3:57Speaker 19: order to get stronger, we must fail accept that. I
- 4:00Speaker 19: know that that who we are right now is not
- 4:02Speaker 19: who we are, but where we are. And we're going
- 4:04Speaker 19: forward with the belief our belief guys drives us workouts.
- 4:10Speaker 2: Believe in the difference you can be.
- 4:12Speaker 19: We'll stop being average when your potential is crying to
- 4:15Speaker 19: come outside of you.
- 4:15Speaker 2: More than that that burning field, man, you got to
- 4:18Speaker 2: earn that burn, that being.
- 4:21Speaker 17: That means check you did it right. Continue to do that.
- 4:24Speaker 17: Nothing's in your way. Man, You're a cheated again. With
- 4:27Speaker 17: everything is a possibility. Two forms of pain. A pain
- 4:31Speaker 17: that breaks you and the pain that changes you. That's
- 4:34Speaker 17: the pain of the change right there, that's the pain
- 4:36Speaker 17: of progress.
- 4:37Speaker 2: The pain that destroys you isn't this shit.
- 4:41Speaker 17: It's later in life knowing you could have been more,
- 4:43Speaker 17: and all that's left is you and the mirror and
- 4:45Speaker 17: tiers of a possibility left that you allowed to die.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Own your life.
- 4:51Speaker 20: Guys, there's so many times in life you don't want
- 4:55Speaker 20: to be doing what you're doing.
- 4:57Speaker 2: You can't just quit. Remember this, it's in the hobby,
- 5:01Speaker 2: it's in the jobs, in lifestyle. So what you say
- 5:05Speaker 2: to yourself is important. There's no goals, there's no training
- 5:08Speaker 2: to keep your goers, only you. The whole thing is this,
- 5:12Speaker 2: don't say a word. Stay uncommon and life's uncommon. People.
- 5:16Speaker 2: You're never done.
- 5:17Speaker 21: Don't stop when you're tired, stop when you're done.
- 5:21Speaker 14: If your definition of success is win or lose, giving
- 5:24Speaker 14: everything you've got and growing or learning along the way,
- 5:27Speaker 14: then you're setting yourself up for success. I really think
- 5:30Speaker 14: the biggest cheat code in life is just going after
- 5:32Speaker 14: it and not being concerned of whether or not you
- 5:35Speaker 14: fail at one specific task, instead understanding the big picture,
- 5:38Speaker 14: what your long term goal is, and knowing if you
- 5:41Speaker 14: keep driving forward and never quit in the end, you
- 5:44Speaker 14: will succeed.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Struggle sucks depends on how you frame it. If you
- 5:52Speaker 1: want freedom in your life, you have to have discipline.
- 5:57Speaker 1: And I said, I learned that I don't let the
- 6:00Speaker 1: highs and the lows affect me too much because we're
- 6:05Speaker 1: gonna have wins, we're gonna have losses. We're gonna have successes,
- 6:10Speaker 1: we're gonna have failures. We're gonna have good nights, we're
- 6:13Speaker 1: gonna have bad nights. We're gonna have good relationships, we're
- 6:16Speaker 1: gonna have bad relationship. We're gonna have good ideas and
- 6:19Speaker 1: bad ideas. We're gonna make money, we're gonna lose money.
- 6:21Speaker 1: All these things are gonna happen. And if you oscillate
- 6:26Speaker 1: emotionally up and down drastically, it's gonna be problematic. Embrace
- 6:33Speaker 1: those emotions, but don't let those emotions embrace you. Keep
- 6:38Speaker 1: pushing through things that suck. And this is a very
- 6:43Speaker 1: difficult thing to do because it hurts.
- 6:46Speaker 12: If you tell yourself the truth, if you tell yourself
- 6:49Speaker 12: the truth, and the truth is I'm not happy with
- 6:51Speaker 12: where I'm at. That's the truth. The truth is I
- 6:54Speaker 12: can do more. The truth is I can work harder
- 6:57Speaker 12: than I'm working right now. The truth is I can't
- 6:59Speaker 12: do more for my family. The truth is I can
- 7:02Speaker 12: do much better than I'm doing right now. And if
- 7:06Speaker 12: that's the real truth, if that's what you believe, if
- 7:09Speaker 12: you believe that to be the truth, you won't have
- 7:11Speaker 12: to find more discipline.
- 7:14Speaker 2: Discipline will find you.
- 7:16Speaker 22: I'm gonna say something to you. You're smart, you're talented,
- 7:20Speaker 22: you know a few things, but talomy is nothing in
- 7:21Speaker 22: this game.
- 7:22Speaker 23: If you don't make the right choices.
- 7:24Speaker 22: There's plenty of talent people out there will never see
- 7:26Speaker 22: the light of day anymore lasting thanks discipline, because this
- 7:30Speaker 22: old game is one big long shot. And if you
- 7:32Speaker 22: don't have the discipline to stay away from the flyers,
- 7:34Speaker 22: from the gambles or whatever else you want to call
- 7:36Speaker 22: a stupid wolf, and my friend, I'm afraid to say,
- 7:38Speaker 22: one day you will go down. It's inevitable. You want
- 7:43Speaker 22: my advice, make a list of everything you want to now,
- 7:48Speaker 22: and then plan on spending the next twenty five years
- 7:50Speaker 22: of your life getting it slowly, piece by.
- 7:52Speaker 24: Piece nineteen times under these views watching this nine nine
- 7:58Speaker 24: point nine, overthink everything, And naturally, if you're quite a
- 8:01Speaker 24: smart guy and you're ambitious and you have big aspirations
- 8:03Speaker 24: for life, you're going to overthink this because you're thinking,
- 8:05Speaker 24: is this the best use of my time? Could I
- 8:07Speaker 24: be doing something better? Maybe I should be doing what
- 8:09Speaker 24: he's doing. But no, you don't need to necessarily do
- 8:11Speaker 24: what he's doing. You just need to stay in your lane,
- 8:13Speaker 24: but just take inspiration, do more things. Less action removes
- 8:17Speaker 24: now the more you do, the less you have time
- 8:20Speaker 24: to doubt and overthink things.
- 8:22Speaker 14: Everything changed for me when I realized that we're not
- 8:25Speaker 14: meant to feel excited and perfect all the time. I
- 8:27Speaker 14: started accepting that where I am right now is where
- 8:31Speaker 14: I'm genuinely meant to be. Tough days are all a
- 8:34Speaker 14: part of the process. Lean into them. Bad days are
- 8:37Speaker 14: also part of a very good and meaningful life. So
- 8:40Speaker 14: on my toughest days, I think about getting through one
- 8:43Speaker 14: more day, one more workout, one more.
- 8:45Speaker 2: Rep Why do I stand up here?
- 8:48Speaker 25: I spend upon my desk to remind myself that we
- 8:50Speaker 25: must constantly look at things in a different way.
- 8:55Speaker 18: See, the world looks very different from up here.
- 8:58Speaker 14: There can be no growth without go As soon as
- 9:01Speaker 14: he said, you do not rise to the level of
- 9:03Speaker 14: your goals, you fall to the level of your systems.
- 9:05Speaker 14: I think people stopped thinking about goals. And he made
- 9:08Speaker 14: a really great argument, which was everybody at the start
- 9:11Speaker 14: line of one hundred meters race has the same goal.
- 9:13Speaker 14: It's to win, So it's not the person who has
- 9:16Speaker 14: the best goals. It's the person who has the best
- 9:18Speaker 14: systems in preparation.
- 9:20Speaker 26: Never try to be better than someone else. Always learn
- 9:22Speaker 26: from others, and never cease trying to be the best
- 9:25Speaker 26: you could be. That's under your control. And if you
- 9:27Speaker 26: get too engrossed and involved and concerned in regard to
- 9:30Speaker 26: the things over which you have no control, it will
- 9:32Speaker 26: adversely affect the things over which you have control.
- 9:36Speaker 21: You got to want it first, then you got to
- 9:39Speaker 21: work it. Then you have the opportunity to win it.
- 9:42Speaker 21: But it all starts with you. Won't you gotta won't this?
- 9:46Speaker 21: I can't won't this for you? You gotta won't this
- 9:49Speaker 21: like no other. Then the work has to happen. And
- 9:52Speaker 21: see the work and it won't got to add up
- 9:54Speaker 21: together to want each other. Then it puts you in
- 9:57Speaker 21: a position to win.
- 10:00Speaker 14: You know, w The person you have to spend the
- 10:02Speaker 14: most time listening to in your life is yourself.
- 10:04Speaker 6: Try not to lose that respect.
- 10:06Speaker 14: How on earth do you think that you're going to
- 10:08Speaker 14: be able to move mountains and get out of that
- 10:10Speaker 14: relationship that you don't like and move countries or change
- 10:13Speaker 14: career when you can't not hit snooze even though last
- 10:17Speaker 14: night you promised yourself that you won't go and hit snooze.
- 10:19Speaker 14: And it's how people that are able to do extraordinary
- 10:23Speaker 14: things have been able to get that.
- 10:25Speaker 10: Whatever I'm afraid to do, I do it. And that's
- 10:29Speaker 10: my personality. Like right now, I'm scared to death, but
- 10:33Speaker 10: if the fight gets cloth, let's nervous. I've become because
- 10:37Speaker 10: this reality and reality, I'm invincible.
- 10:42Speaker 6: Losers let it happen.
- 10:44Speaker 2: Winners make it happen.
- 10:45Speaker 4: Losers see thunderstorms, Winners see.
- 10:48Speaker 6: Rainbows, Losers see icy streets.
- 10:50Speaker 2: Winners put on their ice skates.
- 10:52Speaker 27: Loosers take chances, Winners make choices.
- 10:56Speaker 6: It's all in the way you choose to think.
- 10:59Speaker 28: But I believe stylish relevant. I believe it's the morale
- 11:05Speaker 28: behind the style. I think success in fighting in life
- 11:10Speaker 28: is about desire and the will. Yeah, how bad do
- 11:13Speaker 28: you want it? That worth dying for? That's the true
- 11:17Speaker 28: greatness is the willingness to die. So this thing worth greatness.
- 11:21Speaker 9: These are the years where you need to put into work,
- 11:23Speaker 9: You need to grind, and you don't need to be
- 11:25Speaker 9: focused on everybody else because you staying focused on everybody else,
- 11:29Speaker 9: you staying focused on the world is giving you a
- 11:32Speaker 9: false sense of reality.
- 11:34Speaker 2: Like sometimes you just need to unplug. You just will
- 11:37Speaker 2: increase your confidence. If you don't get what you want,
- 11:43Speaker 2: you suffer.
- 11:46Speaker 29: And even when you get exactly what you want, you
- 11:50Speaker 29: still suffer because you can't.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Hold on to it forever.
- 11:54Speaker 14: America was built on the backs of men who smoked cigarettes,
- 11:58Speaker 14: drove without seatbelts, and how bacon for break First, If
- 12:00Speaker 14: you miss your bio hacking routine this morning, you're going
- 12:03Speaker 14: to be okay. There's a time for leverage. But there's
- 12:06Speaker 14: also a time for violence, which is just brute force.
- 12:10Speaker 14: People get really obsessed with optimal which is getting the
- 12:13Speaker 14: most bang for your book, But there's also maximizing, which
- 12:17Speaker 14: is just getting the most books. You lose more life
- 12:20Speaker 14: trying to optimize everything than just living it. The stress
- 12:23Speaker 14: of trying to be perfect is killing you more quickly
- 12:26Speaker 14: than your imperfections.
- 12:28Speaker 6: Life is a mystery.
- 12:30Speaker 2: The waste time trying to figure it out.
- 12:34Speaker 21: Humor keeper sense of humor, especially about yourself.
- 12:39Speaker 2: It is a strength beyond all measures.
- 12:41Speaker 6: Change, no, no, nothing says the same.
- 12:50Speaker 2: The quote that I live by on early to bed,
- 12:54Speaker 2: early to rise makes a man young.
- 12:57Speaker 30: Rothe and wires.
- 12:59Speaker 31: Your haters will become your congratulates, and the most stones
- 13:04Speaker 31: they throw at your ass, your manching or get bigger.
- 13:08Speaker 11: You want to be that one motherer that every day,
- 13:13Speaker 11: whether it's raining, snow and sleeting, you lost every.
- 13:17Speaker 21: Dime your mom died, your dad died, You come.
- 13:21Speaker 32: And you bring the energy that it takes to make
- 13:25Speaker 32: a team function at the highest level every day.
- 13:30Speaker 2: And that's the person you want to be every day
- 13:33Speaker 2: of your life.
- 13:36Speaker 33: The stoic philosopher is the man who has liberated himself
- 13:39Speaker 33: from fear. He's not afraid of death, he's not afraid
- 13:43Speaker 33: of pain, he's not afraid of other people's dismissal as
- 13:46Speaker 33: a fool. The only thing he cares about is that
- 13:49Speaker 33: he should meet his moral obligations. Greatness is the perception
- 13:53Speaker 33: that virtue is enough, an organized soul which pursues rationally
- 13:59Speaker 33: the ends which are good for all human beings. That's
- 14:01Speaker 33: the Stoic conception of virtue. They finally understand their greatness
- 14:05Speaker 33: consistent the fact that they perceive that virtue is enough.
- 14:09Speaker 34: Because while everybody's over here being cool, and I tell
- 14:11Speaker 34: people this all the time, there's no future in coool.
- 14:14Speaker 34: That's a trend, that's a fad. It comes and it goes,
- 14:18Speaker 34: just like dope money. Dope money comes quick and leaves quicker. Okay,
- 14:22Speaker 34: we're here for a slow but a for sow. This
- 14:24Speaker 34: is a marathon, not a sprint. Paso koto btalaga, which
- 14:28Speaker 34: is short steps long vision.
- 14:31Speaker 14: General ambition gives you anxiety. Specific ambition gives you direction.
- 14:35Speaker 14: There is nothing more anxiety inducing than I want to
- 14:39Speaker 14: be better and I don't know what at and I
- 14:42Speaker 14: don't know how.
- 14:43Speaker 35: Remember, it's not what you have, but what you do
- 14:46Speaker 35: with what you have that separates winners from losers. It's
- 14:49Speaker 35: not what happens to you, but how you respond to
- 14:51Speaker 35: what happens to you that counts. In the final analysis,
- 14:54Speaker 35: your response to the adversity of life is the real
- 14:57Speaker 35: measure of who you are and what you're made of.
- 15:00Speaker 2: The Greek philosopher he picked.
- 15:01Speaker 35: This one, said that circumstances do not make the man
- 15:04Speaker 35: or a woman, They merely reveal him to himself.
- 15:08Speaker 14: I'm fascinated by courage and hope and self belief and
- 15:13Speaker 14: faith in order to do to let go of something
- 15:17Speaker 14: good for the chance that's something that you think could
- 15:22Speaker 14: be great.
- 15:23Speaker 6: It was a big risk. It was a big chance,
- 15:25Speaker 6: and it was no guaranteed return ticket.
- 15:27Speaker 36: It was a one way ticket, possibly to I'm a
- 15:30Speaker 36: head coach of high school football to this day.
- 15:32Speaker 6: One way ticket to a dead end. If you've tried.
- 15:39Speaker 20: Several, several, several, several times to complete whatever missions in
- 15:46Speaker 20: front of you and you can't, sometimes it's not meant
- 15:50Speaker 20: to be.
- 15:51Speaker 2: But that said, there's very few times it's not meant
- 15:56Speaker 2: to be.
- 15:57Speaker 11: So sometimes you need to fucking throw in the towel.
- 16:00Speaker 11: But there's a lot of times when throwing in a
- 16:03Speaker 11: towel too early will take away your shot at the
- 16:06Speaker 11: person that you should have been.
- 16:08Speaker 6: Let me see it this way.
- 16:10Speaker 7: Will your belief that you're going to be viewed as
- 16:14Speaker 7: a failure by your uncle be the sole reason that
- 16:17Speaker 7: you live the rest of your life below your potential
- 16:21Speaker 7: and regret everything that you don't do because of Uncle Tom.
- 16:25Speaker 2: I've leave.
- 16:26Speaker 37: Desire and will to win is everything. I don't know
- 16:29Speaker 37: why I'm like I am, but my butt's always burning.
- 16:32Speaker 37: There's always something to say our dad, gumuch, you're supposed
- 16:34Speaker 37: to go far art Dad, gumuch, you're supposed to be somebody.
- 16:37Speaker 2: You're supposed to make a difference with you lie.
- 16:40Speaker 37: What does the five hundred thousand dollar of your person
- 16:42Speaker 37: do to fifty thousand all of your person doesn't do?
- 16:45Speaker 2: But the winners do it?
- 16:47Speaker 7: What do they do?
- 16:48Speaker 2: They do whatever it takes to get the job done.
- 16:51Speaker 2: They do it, and do it and do it and
- 16:55Speaker 2: do it and do it.
- 16:57Speaker 37: Until the job gets done. And then they talk about
- 17:00Speaker 37: how great it is to be somebody they're proud of.
- 17:02Speaker 37: We need leaders in America who can do it. If
- 17:05Speaker 37: you want to become somebody, do it. If you want
- 17:08Speaker 37: to go in veness for yoursel do it. If you
- 17:11Speaker 37: want to become financially independent, do it. He pays the
- 17:15Speaker 37: price a little bit more, he works hard and a
- 17:17Speaker 37: little bit more. He's loyal to the coutany a little
- 17:20Speaker 37: bit more. He bleeds in a little bit more. He
- 17:23Speaker 37: makes Maney a little bit more, He saves Maney a
- 17:25Speaker 37: little bit more.
- 17:26Speaker 2: If you want to win, you got to be tough
- 17:29Speaker 2: and you can't quit.
- 17:30Speaker 7: When it comes to kind of like potential energy versus reality.
- 17:34Speaker 7: For people on their way up, there's this huge time
- 17:37Speaker 7: delay between when we start behaving in a way that
- 17:40Speaker 7: a winner behaves and when we start winning. And the
- 17:44Speaker 7: problem is that the bigger the mountain you're trying to climb,
- 17:48Speaker 7: the bigger the w you're trying to get, typically the
- 17:51Speaker 7: more delighted. It is like between when you start behaving
- 17:54Speaker 7: like a winner and when you start being a winner.
- 17:57Speaker 7: And most people I don't get to fast enough feedback
- 18:01Speaker 7: loop to know that they're on the right path when
- 18:04Speaker 7: they are taking these first steps in the right direction
- 18:07Speaker 7: because they have this really big goal, but they forget
- 18:11Speaker 7: that with that really big goal comes to even longer
- 18:14Speaker 7: delay that it takes to get there. I need the
- 18:17Speaker 7: positive reinforcement, but the positive re enforcement is coming from mentally.
- 18:20Speaker 14: There's only one way I know to beat people who
- 18:22Speaker 14: copy you get bigger. It's not by direct conflict, but
- 18:26Speaker 14: by making them shrink into irrelevance by comparison.
- 18:30Speaker 38: I'm telling you for things to get better, You got
- 18:32Speaker 38: to get better. Don't ask for it to change out there,
- 18:36Speaker 38: ask for you to change here. Don't ask for a
- 18:37Speaker 38: more favorable wind. We call that naive. Don't ask for
- 18:41Speaker 38: better seed, better soil. This is the only planet you got.
- 18:45Speaker 38: Just ask that you can get wiser and stronger and
- 18:48Speaker 38: better be able to take care of your own responsibilities.
- 18:52Speaker 6: Get better for.
- 18:54Speaker 2: Everybody out there.
- 18:54Speaker 34: Bottom line entrepreneurship is get ready to lose, get ready
- 18:57Speaker 34: to fail. Enjoy the wind. Why because then you appreciate it.
- 19:01Speaker 34: If you win all the time, then you don't know
- 19:03Speaker 34: what lost feels like. But when you know what lost
- 19:05Speaker 34: feels like and failure feels like, then you work really, really,
- 19:08Speaker 34: really hard when you get a w when you get
- 19:10Speaker 34: a win, to protect it.
- 19:13Speaker 39: Anytime y'all are having this little voice, they call it
- 19:17Speaker 39: a big voice. Anytime you having this voice in your head,
- 19:22Speaker 39: turn on a camera and say that shit to the camera. Oh,
- 19:28Speaker 39: I never feel like going to the gym today.
- 19:30Speaker 6: I don't.
- 19:31Speaker 2: Maybe I should just call off of work.
- 19:33Speaker 39: Say that to the camera now, David, God can say that,
- 19:38Speaker 39: But I got one better for y'all.
- 19:41Speaker 2: Say that shit to y'all kids.
- 19:44Speaker 39: Say that to your little brother, Say that to your wife,
- 19:48Speaker 39: Say that to your girlfriend, Say that to.
- 19:52Speaker 2: Your grandmother who's probably about to pass away. Just say
- 19:56Speaker 2: that shit real quick.
- 19:58Speaker 6: You can't, can't you.
- 20:00Speaker 38: Whatever you don't use, you lose. Lack of use causes loss.
- 20:08Speaker 38: If you tie your arm to your body, leave it
- 20:10Speaker 38: there long enough, you'll never use it again. It's over
- 20:15Speaker 38: for the arm. Now it may not be over, but
- 20:16Speaker 38: it's over for the arm. The only way to keep
- 20:18Speaker 38: the use of this arm is well keep using it.
- 20:21Speaker 38: If you quit, you lose automatically. They don't bring it
- 20:26Speaker 38: up for a vote. You lose automatically when you quit. Now,
- 20:31Speaker 38: the same thing that goes for your arm goes for
- 20:33Speaker 38: your brain mentality. The same thing goes for all the
- 20:37Speaker 38: human virtues. Ambition unused declines, strong feelings.
- 20:45Speaker 6: Unused diminish. It doesn't grow, It diminishes.
- 20:52Speaker 40: Faith.
- 20:53Speaker 6: Unused decreases.
- 20:57Speaker 2: It's a law.
- 21:00Speaker 38: Vitality. Unused diminishes. Energy, unused decreases.
- 21:05Speaker 14: You are your own worst enemy. You waste precious time
- 21:08Speaker 14: dreaming of the future instead of engaging in the present,
- 21:11Speaker 14: since nothing seems urgent to you. You're only half involved.
- 21:15Speaker 41: In what you do, even if it's not easy, even
- 21:19Speaker 41: if it's hard, it's easier than not doing it and
- 21:23Speaker 41: wishing that you had done it.
- 21:25Speaker 14: Everyone's hypercritical and terrified to do anything and put themselves
- 21:28Speaker 14: out there and fail, So we hyperanalyze, hypercriticize, become paralyzed,
- 21:32Speaker 14: and end up doing nothing, sitting in our basements watching
- 21:35Speaker 14: tiktoks of other people's lives, pretending that they're happy. I
- 21:38Speaker 14: was having one of those cynical days and felt like
- 21:40Speaker 14: granting a little. But honestly, there's optimism here for some
- 21:43Speaker 14: low barrier of entry personal growth. Stop analyzing, stop criticizing
- 21:47Speaker 14: both yourself and others, and go fail at some shit.
- 21:50Speaker 14: Go give someone a good job for sucking at something,
- 21:53Speaker 14: because at least they're trying. Maybe we'll even give yourself
- 21:55Speaker 14: permission to do the same. We'd find meaning in trying
- 21:59Speaker 14: difficult things, not just in succeeding at them.
- 22:03Speaker 11: The second I got my head on my and I realized, man,
- 22:07Speaker 11: you can achieve a lot of shit if you get
- 22:09Speaker 11: off your heads.
- 22:10Speaker 2: You start moving, and you start motivating yourself back.
- 22:13Speaker 35: We saw clearly that without the lessons that we had
- 22:15Speaker 35: learned from our mistakes, we would have surely died.
- 22:17Speaker 6: In the desert.
- 22:18Speaker 35: And when you look back on any achievement, you will
- 22:20Speaker 35: find that it was preceded by many difficulties and many lessons.
- 22:25Speaker 2: They are the price that you pay for your success.
- 22:28Speaker 2: And no success is possible without mind.
- 22:31Speaker 42: People are walking around, brother, and they're setting themselves up
- 22:33Speaker 42: for failure. They wake up there on their phones till
- 22:35Speaker 42: twelve and the beds scrolling. They don't study they don't learn,
- 22:38Speaker 42: they don't self developed. People are just trying to make
- 22:39Speaker 42: it win, win, win. No, just get rid of your
- 22:41Speaker 42: deficits and the rest will just flourish. People that win
- 22:43Speaker 42: long term are the people that make it so hard
- 22:46Speaker 42: to lose that it becomes easy to win. Imagine you
- 22:48Speaker 42: just set yourself up for success. You open up your calendar,
- 22:51Speaker 42: set up for success. You open up your YouTube, it
- 22:53Speaker 42: set up for success. You open up your phone book,
- 22:55Speaker 42: that's set up for success. Your relationship, it's set up
- 22:57Speaker 42: for success. Winning was just kind of like inevitable. So
- 22:59Speaker 42: set up systems in your life.
- 23:00Speaker 43: When you see what men can do when pushed beyond
- 23:04Speaker 43: the limit of human capacity. When you see that, when
- 23:09Speaker 43: you hear about it, when you read about it, well,
- 23:14Speaker 43: then remember to push yourself. Push yourself every day, every moment.
- 23:23Speaker 43: Get out there and get after it. But know what
- 23:29Speaker 43: I discovered when.
- 23:31Speaker 5: You're working at your dream, somebody said.
- 23:33Speaker 2: The heart of the battle, the sweet of the victory.
- 23:36Speaker 2: It's good to you.
- 23:37Speaker 5: Why see you when it's hard and there's a struggle.
- 23:40Speaker 5: See what you become in a process is more important
- 23:43Speaker 5: than the dream.
- 23:44Speaker 2: That's far more important. The kind of person you become,
- 23:47Speaker 2: the character that you've built.
- 23:49Speaker 5: The courage that you develop, the faith that you're manifesting. Oh,
- 23:53Speaker 5: it's just something that you get up in the morning,
- 23:55Speaker 5: you look yourself in the mirror. You're a different kind
- 23:57Speaker 5: of person, you walk with a different kind of spirit,
- 24:01Speaker 5: and people know that you know what life is, that
- 24:05Speaker 5: you have embrace life.
- 24:07Speaker 2: You know what's hard. But you did at Hall.
- 24:12Speaker 44: If you stay in bed, if you stay on the couch,
- 24:14Speaker 44: if you stay in your comfort zone, if you only
- 24:17Speaker 44: do what is easy, your life will be hard. But
- 24:20Speaker 44: if you do what is hard, if you get up,
- 24:23Speaker 44: if you grind, if you are relentless, if you work
- 24:26Speaker 44: as hard as possible when other people are slacking off,
- 24:30Speaker 44: your life will be easy.
- 24:33Speaker 31: People limit themselves in a crazy way. They're like, oh, yeah,
- 24:36Speaker 31: everybody can't do it. It's like you said, It's like, no,
- 24:39Speaker 31: everybody can't do it. It takes a lot, you know
- 24:41Speaker 31: what I mean. You gotta go through this shit to
- 24:44Speaker 31: get it.
- 24:45Speaker 40: Oh, Michael Jordan, I remember I interviewed him years ago
- 24:48Speaker 40: and I said, what makes you the best in the world?
- 24:50Speaker 30: Is it skill?
- 24:51Speaker 45: Is it talent?
- 24:51Speaker 2: Is the ability? Is it backgard? Is it training? And
- 24:53Speaker 2: he was so awesome.
- 24:54Speaker 30: He said Tony, I can tell you the truth that
- 24:56Speaker 30: it won't sound like hyperbole or false modesty.
- 24:58Speaker 2: He said, I let me make the high school basketball team.
- 25:02Speaker 2: My sophomore year, I was cut. He said.
- 25:04Speaker 30: What it is is every day I demand more for
- 25:06Speaker 30: myself than anybody else could possibly expect.
- 25:09Speaker 2: I don't compete with other people. I compete with what
- 25:11Speaker 2: I'm capable of.
- 25:12Speaker 46: The problem in this world, you see is is instant gratification.
- 25:20Speaker 46: Everybody wants it now.
- 25:24Speaker 38: If you want the future to change for you, you've
- 25:27Speaker 38: got to change. If you don't change, the next six
- 25:30Speaker 38: years of your life is going to be just like
- 25:32Speaker 38: the last six. You'll still be behind on your bills,
- 25:35Speaker 38: You'll still be behind on your promises. If you will change,
- 25:39Speaker 38: everything will change for you. If you will get better,
- 25:44Speaker 38: everything will get better for you. If you'll change your philosophy,
- 25:47Speaker 38: if you'll change your habits, if you'll refine your thinking,
- 25:51Speaker 38: if you'll change and accept some new disciplines, if you'll
- 25:54Speaker 38: turn the corner where you've been in the past go
- 25:56Speaker 38: for a new life for the future, all kinds of
- 25:58Speaker 38: remarkable things will happen them for you.
- 26:00Speaker 6: If you will change.
- 26:02Speaker 47: Do you remember who you were before the world told
- 26:04Speaker 47: you who you should be, and so anytime you got
- 26:07Speaker 47: to be courageous. Let's look at it from the standpoint
- 26:09Speaker 47: of dreams, goals, and aspirations. You got your dream, your goal,
- 26:13Speaker 47: and your aspiration and then you got reality right, and
- 26:18Speaker 47: oftentimes reality doesn't reflect the goal, the dream, and the aspiration.
- 26:22Speaker 47: And so when you think courage like being courageous and
- 26:26Speaker 47: following your heart because it somehow knows what you want
- 26:29Speaker 47: to do anyway, Like it's almost like instinct, right, It's
- 26:33Speaker 47: almost like when you feel something that you should do
- 26:36Speaker 47: and for some strange reason, like your mind or your
- 26:39Speaker 47: spirit tells you, now, I don't want to do it
- 26:41Speaker 47: because it takes you outside of your comfort zone and
- 26:43Speaker 47: it puts you into space and place that may be
- 26:45Speaker 47: unknown or puts you in a space in place of
- 26:47Speaker 47: uncharted territory.
- 26:49Speaker 2: But you know you should do it, you could feel it, right,
- 26:52Speaker 2: and then you go against it.
- 26:56Speaker 46: That the magic you're looking for in life is in
- 27:00Speaker 46: the work you're avoiding, and that just like kind of rockly,
- 27:05Speaker 46: there's something that you know you should be doing, whether
- 27:10Speaker 46: it be working on yourself or losing weight, writing something,
- 27:17Speaker 46: working on your career. The magic you're looking.
- 27:21Speaker 2: For in life is in the work you're avoiding.
- 27:26Speaker 46: Everybody wants to be a star, Everybody wants success, everybody
- 27:30Speaker 46: wants to have money. You got to work at it.
- 27:36Speaker 46: If you really want to be successful, you have to
- 27:39Speaker 46: work at it. Nothing is achieved without some perspiration, nothing,
- 27:45Speaker 46: anything that is worth anything. You have to work at
- 27:50Speaker 46: it one more time.
- 27:53Speaker 41: And even if you're not where you want to be
- 27:54Speaker 41: in life and you're grinding and you're on that hustle,
- 27:57Speaker 41: keep grinding, getting.
- 27:58Speaker 32: But also appreciate it. Appreciate that hustle. Appreciate this thing.
- 28:03Speaker 32: Appreciate this beautiful, chaotic, unknown existence.
- 28:08Speaker 2: You're in the thing we call life. I love me.
- 28:13Speaker 39: So the day that you decide to stop loving me,
- 28:16Speaker 39: I'm not gonna love myself any less.
- 28:19Speaker 2: I believe in me. If you stop believing in me,
- 28:24Speaker 2: I'm not gonna believe.
- 28:25Speaker 27: And pressure is not a bad thing. We have this
- 28:28Speaker 27: thing where we feel like stress is bad. It's bad
- 28:31Speaker 27: for you bad. You know you need to relax, man,
- 28:34Speaker 27: You need to chill. Stress will kill you. No, being
- 28:38Speaker 27: bored will kill you. Not having anything to do with
- 28:41Speaker 27: cue is much more dangerous than stress. Yes, you can
- 28:44Speaker 27: work too hard, you can work where there's no soul involved.
- 28:49Speaker 27: I work like a fiend because I'm writing a book
- 28:52Speaker 27: and it's a very hard process for me, and I'm
- 28:55Speaker 27: working far too much. But Matt, I love it good enough.
- 29:00Speaker 18: Think about it good as a positive enough negative.
- 29:02Speaker 2: That's anoximoron right there. It's ep a critical in its
- 29:05Speaker 2: own sense. There is something that's ever good enough. The
- 29:08Speaker 2: only thing that's enough is at the end of the
- 29:10Speaker 2: day that antower the final hour.
- 29:12Speaker 48: If you're only four, that your hand is raised victoriously,
- 29:16Speaker 48: that's when you know it's enough, and you're in the
- 29:19Speaker 48: gym right now to ensure that that event goes your way.
- 29:23Speaker 2: It will never go your way.
- 29:25Speaker 29: Guys, if you're saying today is good enough, if you
- 29:29Speaker 29: never say good enough today, I promise you tomorrow will
- 29:34Speaker 29: always be enough.
- 29:36Speaker 18: Whatever good enough isn't enough, you can bet tomorrow you'll
- 29:41Speaker 18: have enough.
- 29:43Speaker 38: Each person's income is determined primarily by their philosophy, not
- 29:48Speaker 38: by the economy. Once I understood that, then I said, well,
- 29:53Speaker 38: I don't have to go to work on the economy.
- 29:54Speaker 38: And the answer was no, you only have to.
- 29:56Speaker 34: Go to work.
- 29:59Speaker 6: On yourself.
- 30:01Speaker 38: To make yourself more valuable because it doesn't take But
- 30:05Speaker 38: a few ideas to make a great difference in your income,
- 30:08Speaker 38: personal life, social life, and all the rest.
- 30:13Speaker 18: The martians guys in life that it takes a champion,
- 30:18Speaker 18: so let's remember it.
- 30:19Speaker 6: After God.
- 30:20Speaker 29: The legacies elect the role models, the one that stands
- 30:23Speaker 29: those tests the time, always talking.
- 30:24Speaker 18: About don't look terms like good enough, mister board, and
- 30:31Speaker 18: they fail over and over and over again so many
- 30:34Speaker 18: times that they've learned what it takes to succeed.
- 30:39Speaker 29: With failure comes success, and with success comes blueprints the
- 30:45Speaker 29: fundamental principles that lead to success.
- 30:49Speaker 14: It just takes work, shitloads and shitloads of work. Every
- 30:53Speaker 14: time I try and dress it up or cut a ConA,
- 30:55Speaker 14: I get brutally reminded the work just needs doing.
- 30:59Speaker 7: The work does who you are. It just has that
- 31:03Speaker 7: it gets done. I'm actually going to reverse quote David
- 31:07Speaker 7: Goggins on this one. I love this quote that he
- 31:10Speaker 7: has which he says, there's no shortcuts for you, David
- 31:12Speaker 7: or I heard him say that, and I just love
- 31:14Speaker 7: that as a refrain, which is that a lot of
- 31:16Speaker 7: people look for a shortcut, but the idea that you
- 31:19Speaker 7: say like they're not for you, you don't get to
- 31:22Speaker 7: use them. You are immune to shortcuts. I just love
- 31:25Speaker 7: it because then it just further shortcuts the path to
- 31:28Speaker 7: the work that needs to get done.
- 31:31Speaker 49: You should push yourself beyond your limits of tolerance to
- 31:34Speaker 49: find out where it is how much can you work?
- 31:37Speaker 49: How discipline can you become?
- 31:38Speaker 19: Like?
- 31:38Speaker 2: Can you work twelve hours a day? Can you work
- 31:40Speaker 2: eight hours a day? Can you work three hours a day?
- 31:42Speaker 13: Like?
- 31:42Speaker 2: Flat out?
- 31:44Speaker 49: Where's your limit? And how much work can you do?
- 31:47Speaker 49: And how much socialization? You should find out push yourself
- 31:50Speaker 49: past and then back off to that point where it's
- 31:53Speaker 49: optimally sustainable.
- 31:54Speaker 43: You have the opportunity to prevent catastrophe in your own life.
- 31:58Speaker 43: But in order to do that, once again, you have
- 32:01Speaker 43: to stand up. You have to do the right thing.
- 32:07Speaker 43: You have to be uncomfortable. You have to impose the
- 32:14Speaker 43: discipline on your own Life's.
- 32:18Speaker 18: Not listening to nomality of life and everyone's saying the
- 32:21Speaker 18: way it is is the way it's gonna be for you.
- 32:24Speaker 18: The way it is for you. It is blood, sweat
- 32:26Speaker 18: and tears today to create a foundation of strength of tomorrow.
- 32:31Speaker 18: Those days combined, you know, whatever dream you want to
- 32:34Speaker 18: be a reality, We're always fighting for that edge, always
- 32:39Speaker 18: fighting for the opportunity. So it's not passed, it's not missed,
- 32:43Speaker 18: but lived. We're not gonna cry about those opportunities.
- 32:46Speaker 48: We're gonna smile remember that and think it's how they
- 32:49Speaker 48: came because we were ready for the game.
- 32:53Speaker 2: You won't be ready.
- 32:55Speaker 6: Today.
- 32:57Speaker 19: Isn't pushed with the strenuous nature and the pressure of
- 33:03Speaker 19: the moment in the future that everything rides on.
- 33:06Speaker 2: There's several days I don't want to do. I procrastinate
- 33:09Speaker 2: like a mother. This is one of those days.
- 33:12Speaker 38: Man, I don't know what challenges you might have and
- 33:14Speaker 38: going over the stuff we've been going over in terms
- 33:17Speaker 38: of amending your philosophy or going back and you know,
- 33:20Speaker 38: redoing some stuff that you might have messed up. Face
- 33:25Speaker 38: all your fears. That's how you conquer them. Don't dismiss them,
- 33:28Speaker 38: Just face them. Say here's what I'm afraid of. I
- 33:30Speaker 38: wonder what I could do to change that. Here's the
- 33:32Speaker 38: next one. Exercise your willpower to change direction. You don't
- 33:36Speaker 38: have to keep doing what you've done the last six
- 33:38Speaker 38: years if it's not yielding you the benefits you want.
- 33:42Speaker 38: My mentor helped me to review the last six years
- 33:44Speaker 38: so I wouldn't repeat those errors the next six See
- 33:47Speaker 38: if you're a goose, you have no choice to do
- 33:48Speaker 38: the next six like you did the last six. But
- 33:50Speaker 38: if you're not a goose, here's what you can do.
- 33:53Speaker 38: Pick a new destination and start going that way. You said, well,
- 33:57Speaker 38: I've done this for the last two years, I'll probably
- 33:59Speaker 38: have to do it in another too. The answer is no,
- 34:01Speaker 38: not in a millionaires.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Now.
- 34:02Speaker 38: You can change one little degree at a time, or
- 34:04Speaker 38: if you want to, you can revolutionize the whole thing.
- 34:08Speaker 2: Look, I'm sorry you like turnouts are bad, but don't
- 34:10Speaker 2: blame me. You messed it up yourself. You just focus
- 34:13Speaker 2: on the bad stuff when all you have to do
- 34:15Speaker 2: is let go the past and keep moving forward.
- 34:20Speaker 28: You look at YouTube and I think guys have Mike
- 34:22Speaker 28: Tything and model Mike Tything God, and I'm not.
- 34:26Speaker 30: Worthy of that.
- 34:27Speaker 20: You are.
- 34:28Speaker 28: I'm not for somebody that worth to praise me anything now,
- 34:31Speaker 28: I'm always just Mike.
- 34:34Speaker 2: Can I say something you didn't say anything?
- 34:36Speaker 30: I love for you to talk to me Puffin.
- 34:44Speaker 4: You had to go through all of that.
- 34:48Speaker 2: So that you could change the world. Dude, Really, I
- 34:53Speaker 2: don't see that. I don't know.
- 34:55Speaker 4: You don't realize how many lives you're changing saving because
- 35:02Speaker 4: of who you are and what you've been through and
- 35:08Speaker 4: how you're willing to speak about it now.
- 35:13Speaker 6: But it was the beginning of this thing.
- 35:15Speaker 36: Or I caught that red light and therefore made me
- 35:18Speaker 36: sixty seconds later to get to that cafe where I
- 35:21Speaker 36: met that movie producer or that woman who became my wife,
- 35:25Speaker 36: or whatever that is.
- 35:27Speaker 6: It makes sense the time, but by looking back, it's
- 35:30Speaker 6: all of science. There is that quote about a.
- 35:35Speaker 14: The ironic tragedy is that life has to be lived fullward,
- 35:37Speaker 14: but only makes sense and revotals.
- 35:39Speaker 50: Yeah, you know what happens. Most of you guys won't
- 35:43Speaker 50: do the damn work. You know why you're not disciplined,
- 35:47Speaker 50: You're distracted in this room. We will recreate you tomorrow.
- 35:51Speaker 50: I will tell you this. It's not a one day deal.
- 35:53Speaker 50: It's the rest of your life deal. You make the
- 35:56Speaker 50: decision to level up every single day for the rest
- 35:59Speaker 50: of your life.
- 36:00Speaker 43: Do you hear me?
- 36:01Speaker 2: How many of you are prepared to die for what
- 36:03Speaker 2: you want?
- 36:04Speaker 50: I'm believe you are really prepared to go all in,
- 36:07Speaker 50: not care about getting embarrassed, don't care what anyone else
- 36:11Speaker 50: thinks about you.
- 36:12Speaker 2: Other people are running your life.
- 36:14Speaker 6: It's time for you to take back control of your life.
- 36:16Speaker 38: How to go from average to fortune? There's five simple steps.
- 36:21Speaker 38: You might like to make a note of them. Here's
- 36:23Speaker 38: the first one. Get serious. You don't have to be grim,
- 36:27Speaker 38: but you must be serious. I know a guy that's
- 36:29Speaker 38: got a half a dozen jokes keeping him from becoming wealthy.
- 36:33Speaker 38: He's not known as rich, he's known as a joker,
- 36:36Speaker 38: which I guess is okay if that's the kind of
- 36:38Speaker 38: life you want to live. But it really isn't the
- 36:40Speaker 38: best way to live. To go from average, when will
- 36:44Speaker 38: I know?
- 36:44Speaker 6: I'm ready? You won't.
- 36:51Speaker 2: That's all it is, miles a leap of faith.
- 37:00Speaker 51: So I gotta ask yourself, are you here to prove
- 37:03Speaker 51: something to other people? Prove something to yourself?
- 37:12Speaker 14: Until you win, effort always goes and noticed get used
- 37:15Speaker 14: to it. No one roots for you until everyone roots
- 37:18Speaker 14: for you. That's just how it works.
- 37:22Speaker 2: What you set me up to fail? Why if you
- 37:25Speaker 2: only do what you can do, you will never be
- 37:28Speaker 2: more than you are now.
- 37:31Speaker 14: The only insults that hurt are the ones we believe.
- 37:35Speaker 14: Next time someone insults you, remember they're going to die.
- 37:39Speaker 14: Everyone will forget about them. And if no one will
- 37:41Speaker 14: remember them, then you might as well forget about them now.
- 37:44Speaker 14: They are irrelevant. Your dream your actions, your outcomes. You
- 37:49Speaker 14: cannot wish for a strong character and an easy life.
- 37:52Speaker 14: Each is the price of the other. What if what
- 37:55Speaker 14: you're going through isn't hard? What if you're just sensitive?
- 38:00Speaker 7: List all the things that you aren't willing to give
- 38:03Speaker 7: up for the dreams that you have, and that is
- 38:06Speaker 7: what the person who will beat you is willing to
- 38:08Speaker 7: give up.
- 38:10Speaker 52: You know what your problem is.
- 38:12Speaker 18: You're smart, too smart.
- 38:15Speaker 52: You overthink because your mind moves at a million miles
- 38:18Speaker 52: a minute. You're sad because you're not fooled by the
- 38:22Speaker 52: world like everyone else. You don't get along with most
- 38:25Speaker 52: people because they just don't look at things the way
- 38:28Speaker 52: you do. You think you're dumb because you're smart enough
- 38:33Speaker 52: to know you don't know everything. Your problem is you're
- 38:37Speaker 52: too smart, and happiness and intelligent people is one of
- 38:41Speaker 52: the rarest things I know.
- 38:43Speaker 14: People want to find that passion, but you don't find it.
- 38:46Speaker 14: You create it, and you create it by getting good
- 38:50Speaker 14: at something. And to get good at stuff, you stop
- 38:52Speaker 14: by doing something you suck at. Then you get good,
- 38:55Speaker 14: then you like it. Then people ask how you found
- 38:58Speaker 14: your passion.
- 39:00Speaker 6: By stopping? When you suck to not getting up.
- 39:05Speaker 53: Have you ever thought that I want more from life
- 39:07Speaker 53: than a nice apartment and a job serving tea?
- 39:09Speaker 25: There's nothing wrong with a life of peace and prosperity.
- 39:13Speaker 25: I suggest you think about what it is that you
- 39:16Speaker 25: want from your life and why I want my destiny.
- 39:21Speaker 2: What that means is up to you. Here's bubble verse.
- 39:28Speaker 18: I think about sometimes.
- 39:31Speaker 2: Many times.
- 39:33Speaker 18: It goes.
- 39:36Speaker 54: Then I heard the voice Lord saying whom shall I
- 39:40Speaker 54: send and who will go for us? And I said,
- 39:56Speaker 54: here a MA.
- 40:00Speaker 2: Send me when I have my accident.
- 40:07Speaker 55: I found out at that moment nothing in life is
- 40:10Speaker 55: promised to set death. If you have the opportunity to
- 40:17Speaker 55: play this game of life, you need to appreciate every moment.
- 40:23Speaker 55: A lot of people don't appreciate that moment until it's passed.
- 40:29Speaker 14: Well, if you can be in a bad mood for
- 40:33Speaker 14: no reason, you might as well be in a good
- 40:36Speaker 14: mood for no reason. If it's not going to change
- 40:38Speaker 14: your life, it shouldn't change your mood. If the cost
- 40:41Speaker 14: is peace of mind, don't buy it.
- 40:44Speaker 2: I don't ever pass.
- 40:46Speaker 56: Up an opportunity to be of encouragement to other people.
- 40:48Speaker 2: Don't ever pass up.
- 40:49Speaker 16: An opportunity to inspire someone, and'll ever pass up an
- 40:52Speaker 16: opportunity to empower someone, and'll ever pass up an opportunity to.
- 40:55Speaker 2: Show someone love.
- 40:56Speaker 56: Because the thing about it my room, like you could
- 40:58Speaker 56: see this, You can see my arm, my wound is visible,
- 41:06Speaker 56: but it's a lot of people in this room that
- 41:08Speaker 56: are wounded and you can't see it.
- 41:11Speaker 57: And it's in turn, hard work actually works, and with
- 41:17Speaker 57: virtually everything. It might not make you the best at
- 41:22Speaker 57: whatever it is you're pursuing, but it will certainly make
- 41:24Speaker 57: you better than you are.
- 41:26Speaker 14: I've found great to fulfillment in the journey of pursuing
- 41:29Speaker 14: my goals than in the moment of achieving them.
- 41:33Speaker 51: Tell you the truth, I don't know if it's special.
- 41:35Speaker 51: Only you're going to know that in the time is right.
- 41:37Speaker 51: Can I ain't gole to come overnight. You're gonna take
- 41:39Speaker 51: a be gonna take this. You're gonna get knocked that,
- 41:41Speaker 51: you're gonna get up and you're gonna see if you
- 41:43Speaker 51: got the right thing.
- 41:45Speaker 2: But you gotta work hard. I swear to God.
- 41:48Speaker 23: If you're not gonna do it, I'm out.
- 41:53Speaker 2: Okay.
- 41:53Speaker 18: Every punch I ever thrown has been on mom Nobody
- 41:56Speaker 18: showed me how to do this.
- 41:59Speaker 2: I'm ready.
- 42:02Speaker 58: Wells to be unyielding. You know, you never give an
- 42:05Speaker 58: inch to anywhere, Like you're always going after it, always
- 42:09Speaker 58: going after, always going after it. And if there's a
- 42:10Speaker 58: challenge that ensues, oh good, I want to see how
- 42:13Speaker 58: I stack up to that.
- 42:14Speaker 2: So you go after him, you go after it, and
- 42:16Speaker 2: it's just it's fun.
- 42:18Speaker 58: It's like you get a chance to compete against opponents
- 42:21Speaker 58: and you get a chance to see where you stack
- 42:24Speaker 58: up against them. It's like I want to see, maybe
- 42:26Speaker 58: I'm not good enough today. If that that's fine, I'll
- 42:29Speaker 58: be good enough the next time I see you, though,
- 42:31Speaker 58: you know, and you get a chance to always measure yourself.
- 42:34Speaker 58: So I guess that's where relentlessness comes from.
- 42:37Speaker 59: I wanted to read you a quote from twenty thirteen
- 42:40Speaker 59: that you said, I've lost my mind on this game.
- 42:43Speaker 59: Like Vinceylvanga dedicated his life to his art and he
- 42:47Speaker 59: lost his mind in the process.
- 42:48Speaker 2: That's happened to me.
- 42:49Speaker 60: But my gold belt is around my waist. My mother
- 42:55Speaker 60: has a big mansa. My girl ran as a different
- 42:59Speaker 60: calf for every day. Think my kids kids have everything
- 43:03Speaker 60: they ever want, Then it will pay. Then happy, Then
- 43:08Speaker 60: I'm happy I.
- 43:08Speaker 2: Lost one of my life. How did you get good
- 43:11Speaker 2: at this? Honestly made a lot of mistakes, that's a
- 43:17Speaker 2: secret just there might be.
- 43:22Speaker 61: I think as I started early, I got my skill
- 43:25Speaker 61: set up really quick, and then started to feel like
- 43:29Speaker 61: I was really the best. You know, I got all
- 43:31Speaker 61: these really good places, I really was the best cook.
- 43:34Speaker 61: And then I started at this really great place as
- 43:37Speaker 61: a comede and this other chef started the same day
- 43:41Speaker 61: as we, and I thought we were competition, but really
- 43:47Speaker 61: we weren't. He was better than me, much much better
- 43:51Speaker 61: than me. He worked harder and faster, and it was
- 43:56Speaker 61: the first time I realized that I wasn't the best,
- 44:02Speaker 61: So I started looking at it like it was a
- 44:03Speaker 61: good thing, Like at least I knew who the best
- 44:05Speaker 61: was now and I could take that pressure of myself.
- 44:08Speaker 6: And the only logical thing to do was to try and.
- 44:10Speaker 33: Keep up with him.
- 44:11Speaker 61: So I never left this guy's side. Can you get better,
- 44:16Speaker 61: oh mane, I got better than I ever thought I
- 44:19Speaker 61: possibly could be, just from trying to keep up with him.
- 44:23Speaker 58: Never say never, because limits, like fears are often just
- 44:29Speaker 58: an illusion.
- 44:33Speaker 6: Because we know that it's not easy.
- 44:37Speaker 62: But no pain, no gain, not even coming from the
- 44:41Speaker 62: showering temperate worldwide known that sentence. Everything that hurts you
- 44:51Speaker 62: find a way to overcome it. Everything that you feel
- 44:58Speaker 62: is difficult for you, find a way to still do it.
- 45:04Speaker 58: There's a choice that we have to make as people,
- 45:08Speaker 58: as individuals. If you want to be great at something's
- 45:10Speaker 58: a choice that you have to make. We all can
- 45:13Speaker 58: be masters at our craft, but you have to make
- 45:17Speaker 58: a choice.
- 45:18Speaker 2: What I mean by that is.
- 45:21Speaker 58: Inherent sacrifices that come along with that. I knew that
- 45:24Speaker 58: I was not going to be stopped, you know, set
- 45:27Speaker 58: the age of eighteen.
- 45:29Speaker 2: This was my life.
- 45:32Speaker 58: Right, So you can't possibly become better than me because
- 45:36Speaker 58: you're not spending the time on it that I do.
- 45:39Speaker 58: Even if you want to spend the time on it,
- 45:41Speaker 58: you can't because you have other things, You have other
- 45:44Speaker 58: responsibilities that are taking you away from it.
- 45:48Speaker 63: So I already won. So it's not the car, the house,
- 45:51Speaker 63: or whatever. It is that internal gold, that internal why.
- 45:55Speaker 63: And so for me, I just think that's it that
- 45:58Speaker 63: like you, Ah, it's just it's something within it. You
- 46:01Speaker 63: gotta pull it out. And so it's easy when you
- 46:03Speaker 63: have a why, a purpose. I'm doing it for this
- 46:06Speaker 63: I'm doing it for that. It's easy to get up
- 46:07Speaker 63: and get going, but it's just for a car. What
- 46:09Speaker 63: happens when you get the car because you can buy it.
- 46:12Speaker 63: What happens when you get the house, and you could
- 46:13Speaker 63: buy the house.
- 46:16Speaker 6: You only get stronger hiking by going uphill. Nobody gets
- 46:20Speaker 6: stronger hiking by just going downhill.
- 46:23Speaker 11: Because you're probably in the bed right now, you're probably
- 46:26Speaker 11: an underachiever. You're probably somebody who doesn't want to do
- 46:31Speaker 11: anything with your life.
- 46:33Speaker 53: People should stop complaining right People should figure out who
- 46:36Speaker 53: the they are good call. People should not listen to
- 46:39Speaker 53: america propaganda of fixing the shit they suck at. They
- 46:42Speaker 53: should be tripling down on what they're good at. They
- 46:45Speaker 53: should be competent in certain areas. But you're not gonna
- 46:49Speaker 53: become Beyonce or you know, like your bone structure is
- 46:53Speaker 53: a certain way, Like you're not going to solve everything.
- 46:55Speaker 53: You're iq can get a little bit better, but don't
- 46:58Speaker 53: worry about the incremental. Figure out what you've put you
- 47:01Speaker 53: on fire and you're halfway decent at If you're lucky
- 47:04Speaker 53: enough right now to be listening, and you're good at
- 47:07Speaker 53: what you like, become tunnel and vision because there's way
- 47:12Speaker 53: too many voices telling you what and how. The reason
- 47:15Speaker 53: most people who are listening right now are not doing
- 47:17Speaker 53: that thing is they're worried about the opinion of somebody.
- 47:21Speaker 53: And the reality is, we have to get to a
- 47:23Speaker 53: place where you're doing you because the number one thing
- 47:27Speaker 53: that scares the fight of me is regret.
- 47:30Speaker 14: The lonely chapter describes a time in which you're growing,
- 47:34Speaker 14: you're changing as a person, and you're now so different
- 47:38Speaker 14: that you can no longer resonate with your old set
- 47:40Speaker 14: of friends, but you're not sufficiently developed that you've got
- 47:44Speaker 14: the new set of friends that you're going to grow into.
- 47:46Speaker 6: And this is the lonely chapter. And the problem with
- 47:48Speaker 6: it is that.
- 47:51Speaker 14: You're always the desire to sort of regress back to
- 47:54Speaker 14: where you are is always going to be there, and
- 47:56Speaker 14: you're going to have You're going to have uncertainty. There's
- 47:58Speaker 14: not even the promise of gol or success or triumph
- 48:02Speaker 14: when you get through the other side.
- 48:03Speaker 6: What am I pushing toward?
- 48:05Speaker 14: You know, you're telling me that I'm not going to
- 48:06Speaker 14: go out on this night out with my friends, which
- 48:09Speaker 14: I've done for the last five years or ten years
- 48:11Speaker 14: in the town that I grew up in or went
- 48:12Speaker 14: to university in or whatever. Are you telling me that
- 48:14Speaker 14: I'm not going to do that because I'm going to
- 48:15Speaker 14: get up and I'm going to meditate or read. Who
- 48:18Speaker 14: even knows if meditation works?
- 48:20Speaker 2: Right?
- 48:20Speaker 14: Like, you got all of these questions in your mind
- 48:22Speaker 14: and all of your friends, and all of the dynamics
- 48:25Speaker 14: and the temptations pull you back toward that.
- 48:28Speaker 64: It pulls you back toward the old version of life.
- 48:35Speaker 64: Just lock on me for six months, please, I really
- 48:39Speaker 64: want you to degree. You got me, I got you.
- 48:42Speaker 30: We are we go.
- 48:44Speaker 6: See what happens.
- 48:47Speaker 65: It's so easy to quit, bro, That's what everyone's doing,
- 48:50Speaker 65: and we're not trying to be like everybody else.
- 48:53Speaker 45: Can't progress in life without progressing. I let it go
- 48:56Speaker 45: over your head. You can't progress in the grand scheme
- 48:59Speaker 45: of life. You don't risk in your everyday life. If
- 49:01Speaker 45: you don't try to take a step to be better,
- 49:03Speaker 45: your overall life won't be better.
- 49:06Speaker 65: If you put your hair down and lock it on
- 49:07Speaker 65: the vision. How could you not win? Only thing that's
- 49:09Speaker 65: going to cause you to lose your do mensality? Why
- 49:13Speaker 65: I hate being around negative people? Being an asshole is
- 49:16Speaker 65: a weak person's idea of strength complaining is their connection.
- 49:21Speaker 65: Never let yourself be held back by other people's fears.
- 49:23Speaker 65: People criticize what they were afraid to do themselves because
- 49:26Speaker 65: bold action reminds them of their own inaction. If you're
- 49:30Speaker 65: afraid to be criticized, why do you care about the
- 49:33Speaker 65: opinions of those who are too timid to do it themselves?
- 49:36Speaker 65: If you are the criticizer, does tearing down someone who
- 49:40Speaker 65: has the courage you lack make you better?
- 49:43Speaker 66: You have a whole life in front of you. You
- 49:45Speaker 66: have years to take part in this life and to
- 49:48Speaker 66: do stuff. You do, offer stuff and do enjoy stuff.
- 49:53Speaker 2: I think about that.
- 49:53Speaker 66: If I was twenty two again and God said he
- 49:57Speaker 66: I'll make you twenty two again, Okay.
- 50:00Speaker 40: Something different?
- 50:01Speaker 66: Wow, oh my god, I'd be like a professional ball
- 50:04Speaker 66: for this time, even though I can't lousy at golf
- 50:07Speaker 66: by stick at golbo, I would do something I think
- 50:11Speaker 66: in my brain could never do, which was body hooting.
- 50:13Speaker 2: The one time I.
- 50:13Speaker 6: Thought I could never do this.
- 50:15Speaker 66: You know, it's too in smartled, it's too crazy. But
- 50:18Speaker 66: something went back in my mind always said do it,
- 50:20Speaker 66: do it, do it, do it?
- 50:21Speaker 67: Hey, when you get out of bed, life standing right
- 50:24Speaker 67: there to kick you in the face. Man, could be
- 50:27Speaker 67: anything could be. You get up and you walk downstairs.
- 50:29Speaker 67: You got a flat tire and you're late for work,
- 50:31Speaker 67: and you got this and that life is going to
- 50:33Speaker 67: throw all kinds of crazy right and you have to
- 50:37Speaker 67: be ready for it, and you got to deal with it.
- 50:39Speaker 67: You can't curl up into a ball, you can't run
- 50:41Speaker 67: away from it, you can't hide. You have to take
- 50:43Speaker 67: all this head on.
- 50:45Speaker 14: So this lonely chapter is a period through which I
- 50:49Speaker 14: think everybody needs to squeeze. Anybody that decides to go
- 50:52Speaker 14: from a place stay on to a place that they
- 50:54Speaker 14: want to be, it's going to have to let go
- 50:57Speaker 14: of people who can go the with them.
- 50:59Speaker 6: It's the if you know that there is something that
- 51:03Speaker 6: you're meant to do, if you know that there's something
- 51:04Speaker 6: that you're meant to change, you.
- 51:07Speaker 14: Will have to let certain groups, friends, routines, places, activities,
- 51:15Speaker 14: recreations that you do.
- 51:16Speaker 6: You're going to have to let those go.
- 51:18Speaker 14: And there is this you know, the rocky cut scene
- 51:20Speaker 14: lasts for ninety seconds in the movie, but it can
- 51:22Speaker 14: last for five years in your life, and you have
- 51:24Speaker 14: no idea whether or not it's even going to work.
- 51:26Speaker 14: And that's the bit that always got to me. The
- 51:28Speaker 14: bit that always got to me was I didn't even
- 51:31Speaker 14: know if it was there was going to be any
- 51:32Speaker 14: glory on the other side. It's like you think, well,
- 51:34Speaker 14: I'm just study here doing the thing, but I don't
- 51:37Speaker 14: know if it's going to come out on the other side.
- 51:38Speaker 14: And I can promise you anybody that has done anything,
- 51:41Speaker 14: moved from any place they were to any place that
- 51:43Speaker 14: they want to be, has gone through this lonely chapter.
- 51:46Speaker 68: I think you just got to work on one day
- 51:48Speaker 68: and just say so what, But who cares? Even don't
- 51:51Speaker 68: believe in me? I believe in myself. You don't go
- 51:54Speaker 68: too much work to not have this amount of confidence. Yeah,
- 51:57Speaker 68: if you don't believe in me, as my success store
- 52:00Speaker 68: and I'm still going to win. But I guess one
- 52:03Speaker 68: thing I got to say is let me know when
- 52:06Speaker 68: that he starts making you money.
- 52:08Speaker 7: You may be right that other people did certain things
- 52:11Speaker 7: or you got Delta badhand. It also doesn't matter because
- 52:15Speaker 7: the only thing that you can't control is obviously the
- 52:18Speaker 7: actions that you take, and the.
- 52:20Speaker 2: Only person who's in control of that is you.
- 52:23Speaker 69: Nobody is going to understand you, bro and It's like
- 52:27Speaker 69: I really realized nobody ever believed in me, Like you
- 52:30Speaker 69: have to believe in yourself. If nobody else is going
- 52:33Speaker 69: to understand, then you have to make sure that you
- 52:36Speaker 69: understand and that you believe in yourself, because that's where
- 52:40Speaker 69: it starts.
- 52:42Speaker 14: Control freak is a word people with low standards use
- 52:46Speaker 14: to describe people with high standards. You're not a control freak.
- 52:50Speaker 14: You just want it done right the first time. You're
- 52:52Speaker 14: not anxious. You can do not expect mediocre people to
- 52:57Speaker 14: support world class goals.
- 53:00Speaker 2: If you go visit the darkness.
- 53:05Speaker 40: That you've been running from, you'll have the opportunity to
- 53:08Speaker 40: leave a better person. You'll have a better understanding of yourself,
- 53:14Speaker 40: you have better understanding of your purpose. But if you
- 53:18Speaker 40: don't take that trip and the darkness comes visits you,
- 53:22Speaker 40: it's a guest that will never leave.
- 53:25Speaker 70: You're playing against the Golden State Warriors. Score is one
- 53:29Speaker 70: oh seven, one oh nine. You guys are close to
- 53:33Speaker 70: getting into the playoffs. You know exactly what happens in
- 53:36Speaker 70: the game. You go up, you're about to take your shot,
- 53:39Speaker 70: and then all of a sudden, boon Achilles happens.
- 53:43Speaker 71: Trying again going to work, falls down, again he's struggling.
- 53:48Speaker 71: Right after you're injured, he went on Facebook and you
- 53:52Speaker 71: posted a lengthy block.
- 53:54Speaker 2: You know what this is? Oh yeah, this is such bs.
- 53:57Speaker 71: All the training and sacrifice just flew out the window
- 53:59Speaker 71: with one step that I've done millions of times. The
- 54:02Speaker 71: frustration is unbearable. Anger is rage. Why the hell did
- 54:05Speaker 71: this happen? Makes no damn sense. Now I'm supposed to
- 54:08Speaker 71: come back from this and be the same player or
- 54:10Speaker 71: better at thirty five.
- 54:11Speaker 2: How in the world am I supposed to do that?
- 54:13Speaker 70: I have no clue.
- 54:15Speaker 71: Do I have the consistent will to overcome this thing?
- 54:18Speaker 71: Maybe I should break out the rocking chair and reminisce
- 54:20Speaker 71: on the career that was. Maybe this is how my
- 54:22Speaker 71: book ends. Maybe father time has defeated me. Then again,
- 54:28Speaker 71: maybe not. It's three thirty am. My foot feels like
- 54:30Speaker 71: dead weight, my head is spinning from the pain meds,
- 54:33Speaker 71: and I'm wide awake. Forgive my vetting, But what's the
- 54:35Speaker 71: purpose of social media if I won't bring it to
- 54:38Speaker 71: you real?
- 54:39Speaker 2: No image feels good to vent, to let it out,
- 54:42Speaker 2: to feel.
- 54:43Speaker 71: As if this is the worst thing ever, Because after
- 54:46Speaker 71: all the venting, the real perspective sets in there are
- 54:49Speaker 71: far greater issues and challenges in the world than a
- 54:51Speaker 71: torn Achilles. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, find the silver lining,
- 54:55Speaker 71: and get to work with the same belief.
- 54:57Speaker 2: Same drive, and same conviction as ever.
- 55:01Speaker 71: One day at the beginning of a new career journey
- 55:03Speaker 71: will commence. Today is not that day. If you see
- 55:07Speaker 71: me in a fight with a bear, pray for the bear.
- 55:11Speaker 71: I've always loved that quote. That's mamba mentality. We don't quit,
- 55:15Speaker 71: we don't cower, we don't run. It's hurting.
- 55:17Speaker 6: But the leg goes down by two and they want
- 55:19Speaker 6: them and need them at the free throw line.
- 55:23Speaker 2: Got it?
- 55:26Speaker 23: Yeah?
- 55:27Speaker 2: How the hell do you tolerate that kind of pain?
- 55:31Speaker 56: Us?
- 55:32Speaker 58: I tell you this example, and I think this is
- 55:34Speaker 58: the best way to explain it. Your kids are upstairs,
- 55:37Speaker 58: you know wife is wherever she may be. You know
- 55:40Speaker 58: it's going down, right. I'm willing to bet that you're
- 55:46Speaker 58: going to forget about your hamstring. You're gonna sprint upstairs,
- 55:49Speaker 58: You're gonna grab your kids, you make sure your wife's good.
- 55:52Speaker 58: You're getting out of that house, right. Hamstring be damn,
- 55:55Speaker 58: you're not going to fill your hamshrind. This is another obstacle.
- 56:00Speaker 58: This obstacle cannot define me. It's not going to cripple me.
- 56:02Speaker 58: It's not going to be responsible for me stepping away
- 56:07Speaker 58: for the game that I love.
- 56:08Speaker 2: I'm going to step away on my own terms. Then
- 56:11Speaker 2: that's when a decision was made that you know what
- 56:13Speaker 2: I'm doing, it doing it disgust.
- 56:18Speaker 6: Disgust.
- 56:20Speaker 38: Discust as a negative emotion, but it can have a
- 56:22Speaker 38: very positive, powerful effect.
- 56:25Speaker 6: Disgust says I've had it. What an important day that
- 56:28Speaker 6: could be.
- 56:30Speaker 72: Most people will not understand your obsession, your drive, and
- 56:34Speaker 72: your determination.
- 56:35Speaker 2: Success is a lonely journey. That's just a reality.
- 56:38Speaker 72: And most people are not going to understand why you're
- 56:41Speaker 72: so driven while you're so obsessed, And if you try
- 56:43Speaker 72: and make them understand, you're going to end up frustrated.
- 56:48Speaker 72: The best advice I can tell you is go on
- 56:51Speaker 72: the journey by yourself.
- 56:53Speaker 7: If I'm going to be just as miserable being mediocre
- 56:57Speaker 7: as I am doing this.
- 56:59Speaker 6: Welcome all experiences.
- 57:03Speaker 38: You never know which one is gonna turn everything on.
- 57:10Speaker 2: Don't put up the walls.
- 57:12Speaker 38: The same wall that keeps out disappointment keeps out happiness.
- 57:17Speaker 6: Take down the walls. Go for the experience. Let it
- 57:19Speaker 6: teach you. And here's the last one.
- 57:23Speaker 2: Resolve.
- 57:25Speaker 38: Resolve says I will, two of the most powerful words
- 57:28Speaker 38: in the language.
- 57:30Speaker 6: Benjamin just rarely said.
- 57:31Speaker 38: Nothing can resist a human will that will stake its
- 57:35Speaker 38: existence on its purpose.
- 57:37Speaker 2: Shortly put, I'll do it or die. My whole thing,
- 57:42Speaker 2: Joe is I'm so grateful.
- 57:45Speaker 73: I'm so optimistic man, and I'm always looking for light
- 57:48Speaker 73: in every situation. And I think that's the way I
- 57:51Speaker 73: deal with things. I just I'm always I always believe
- 57:53Speaker 73: there's gonna be good at the end of the day.
- 57:55Speaker 2: That's just how I am.
- 57:56Speaker 73: I'm just so grateful, where most people will be so
- 57:59Speaker 73: upset with thee and all this type of stuff, I'm
- 58:01Speaker 73: really not. I believe that my best year is my
- 58:03Speaker 73: prime is even still ahead of me, so I'm not
- 58:05Speaker 73: even tripping about it.
- 58:07Speaker 14: Do not be the cult cynic. The ability to express wondering,
- 58:11Speaker 14: amazement and seem like you mean it is a rare
- 58:14Speaker 14: and dying talent, but one is still greatly valued.
- 58:20Speaker 30: The first thing is, you gotta be selfish as hell.
- 58:24Speaker 30: You gotta be selfish. I don't give a fore. It's
- 58:28Speaker 30: to sacrifice, but without great sacrifice and without great risk.
- 58:31Speaker 2: Because there is no such thing as a great reward.
- 58:35Speaker 30: You have to have. And I don't like this word,
- 58:39Speaker 30: but I'm gonna say it because it's true. You have
- 58:42Speaker 30: to be a little maniacal with this maniac right. That
- 58:47Speaker 30: word isn't good in a lot of situations. But when
- 58:50Speaker 30: you're pursuing your destiny, when you identify with your destiny,
- 58:55Speaker 30: you have to be selfish. You have to be moniacal,
- 59:00Speaker 30: you have to be uncompromising, and you have to move
- 59:06Speaker 30: in a way when it comes to those three things,
- 59:10Speaker 30: when you function completely in a way where it's an
- 59:16Speaker 30: unwavering faith, like it don't matter how stuff they might look,
- 59:20Speaker 30: It don't matter how much.
- 59:22Speaker 2: It feels like it ain't gonna work. People say I'm
- 59:25Speaker 2: conceived that I talk too much, but they must have
- 59:27Speaker 2: pity on me. It's hard to be humble when you're
- 59:29Speaker 2: as great as ours.
- 59:31Speaker 41: We have been fed this line of horship that you're
- 59:34Speaker 41: supposed to seek comfort, and I don't think you are.
- 59:37Speaker 41: I think you're supposed to seek lessons, and you're supposed
- 59:40Speaker 41: to seek difficult tasks and accomplishments, and through those things
- 59:45Speaker 41: and through doing things that are hard to do, even
- 59:47Speaker 41: if it's just a ninety minute hot yoga class. I
- 59:50Speaker 41: do a ninety minute yoga class. Man, those last twenty minutes,
- 59:53Speaker 41: I do not want to be there, man, And I
- 59:55Speaker 41: definitely don't want to give one hundred percent.
- 59:57Speaker 2: And I can cheat, I can kind of half assed.
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: I can.
- 1:00:01Speaker 41: But if I don't and I get through it, when
- 1:00:04Speaker 41: that time is up and the lady says namaste and
- 1:00:06Speaker 41: everybody gets up, I'm like, man, I made it.
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: You know, I lost fifteen pounds.
- 1:00:11Speaker 41: My yoga mat has drenched the point where I get
- 1:00:14Speaker 41: literally ring it out and fill a jug up with water.
- 1:00:17Speaker 41: But through that struggle, I will now have a better
- 1:00:21Speaker 41: day and I better do it again tomorrow.
- 1:00:24Speaker 69: Why you need to go all in? The main reason
- 1:00:27Speaker 69: you need to go all in is because you have
- 1:00:31Speaker 69: nothing to lose. Bro When you think about it, guys,
- 1:00:36Speaker 69: you're already broke, okay, And we know that you're not
- 1:00:41Speaker 69: going to save yourself rich okay. And we know that
- 1:00:45Speaker 69: if somebody else is all in and you only have
- 1:00:48Speaker 69: half of your foot into the water and you're not
- 1:00:50Speaker 69: ready to jump, that guy's going to beat you every
- 1:00:53Speaker 69: single time.
- 1:00:54Speaker 58: If your job is to try to be the best
- 1:00:57Speaker 58: basketball player, you can be right to do that.
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: You have to practice.
- 1:01:00Speaker 4: You have to train right.
- 1:01:01Speaker 58: You want to train as much as you can and
- 1:01:03Speaker 58: as often as you can. So if you get up
- 1:01:06Speaker 58: at ten in the morning, train at eleven, right, twelve,
- 1:01:09Speaker 58: say twelve, train at twelve, train for two hours, twelve
- 1:01:12Speaker 58: to two. You have to let your body recover, so
- 1:01:15Speaker 58: you eat, recover whatever you get back out you train,
- 1:01:18Speaker 58: start training again at six, train from six to eight. Right,
- 1:01:21Speaker 58: and now you go home, you shower, your dinner, you
- 1:01:24Speaker 58: go to bed, you wake up, do it again. Right,
- 1:01:25Speaker 58: those are two sessions right now. Imagine you wake up
- 1:01:28Speaker 58: at three, you train at four, you go four to six,
- 1:01:31Speaker 58: come home, breakfast, relax, so so blah blah blah. Now
- 1:01:34Speaker 58: you're back at it again, nine to eleven, right, relax,
- 1:01:38Speaker 58: and now it's done. You're back at it again.
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: To the four.
- 1:01:40Speaker 58: And now you're back at it again. You know, seven
- 1:01:43Speaker 58: to nine. Look how much more training I have done
- 1:01:46Speaker 58: by simply starting at four? Right, And so now you
- 1:01:49Speaker 58: do that, and as the years go on, the separation
- 1:01:53Speaker 58: that you have with your competitors and your peers just
- 1:01:56Speaker 58: grows larger and larger and larger and larger and larger.
- 1:01:59Speaker 58: And by a year, five or six doesn't matter what
- 1:02:02Speaker 58: kind of work do you doing in summer? They're never
- 1:02:04Speaker 58: going to catch.
- 1:02:04Speaker 38: Up, But I think that's good advice. Don't be a follower,
- 1:02:08Speaker 38: be a student. Right, take advice, but not orders. Take information,
- 1:02:14Speaker 38: but don't let somebody you know order your life. Make
- 1:02:17Speaker 38: sure what you do is the product of your own conclusion.
- 1:02:20Speaker 38: Make sure what you do is the product of your
- 1:02:22Speaker 38: own conclusion. Not to do what someone else says. Take
- 1:02:28Speaker 38: what someone else says. Process it, think about it, Ponder it.
- 1:02:32Speaker 38: If it makes you wonder, it makes you think, then
- 1:02:35Speaker 38: it's valuable. Then when you go take action, make sure
- 1:02:38Speaker 38: that the action is not what somebody told you to do.
- 1:02:40Speaker 38: Make sure the action is the product of your own conclusion.
- 1:02:44Speaker 3: The biggest difference between people who win and people who
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: lose is that winners expect to win. Winners are not
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: surprised when they win. Like when I win, I don't
- 1:02:54Speaker 3: like celebrate, overly celebrate because I expected that to be
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: the outcome. Amateurs when they win their and then they
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: over celebrate. And like I said, when they over celebrate,
- 1:03:03Speaker 3: they become ineffective because they're taking their eye off the
- 1:03:06Speaker 3: game for way too long. Right, I won the week
- 1:03:09Speaker 3: this week, and then they talk about that one week
- 1:03:11Speaker 3: for the next six weeks, and the next six weeks,
- 1:03:13Speaker 3: the guy who expected to win is still going just
- 1:03:15Speaker 3: as hard.
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: So it's an expectation.
- 1:03:17Speaker 3: That's the difference between winners and losers that I think
- 1:03:20Speaker 3: in terms of not so much their self talk, but
- 1:03:23Speaker 3: just their attitude.
- 1:03:25Speaker 30: You're gonna know what it's gonna be like to make
- 1:03:28Speaker 30: it personal, because I'm gonna make it personal.
- 1:03:33Speaker 2: Because it's always been personal.
- 1:03:38Speaker 70: To me.
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: You identify with this gift.
- 1:03:45Speaker 30: We all got the gift because it something that we've
- 1:03:49Speaker 30: all been blessed with at some point. If we listen
- 1:03:53Speaker 30: to that little thing that speaks to us inside, some
- 1:03:58Speaker 30: people call it instinct, some people call it a vibe,
- 1:04:02Speaker 30: some people call it an.
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: Energy, whatever the fuck you call it. Some people call
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: it a voice.
- 1:04:07Speaker 30: Whatever that thing is, bro, if it sparks the thought,
- 1:04:13Speaker 30: that changes the whole trajectory to what your life can
- 1:04:19Speaker 30: evolve into. Because you took a second to listen to
- 1:04:22Speaker 30: that shit, you are identifying with your blessed You are
- 1:04:28Speaker 30: identifying with your gift, and at that point you learn
- 1:04:32Speaker 30: what the fuck it is and become one with it
- 1:04:36Speaker 30: and walk in your purpose sprout.
- 1:04:41Speaker 38: The key is time is precious. Now, let me give
- 1:04:43Speaker 38: your Bill Bailey's a description of time. Life is not
- 1:04:47Speaker 38: just the passing of time. Life is not just the
- 1:04:52Speaker 38: passing of time.
- 1:04:55Speaker 6: Life is a.
- 1:04:56Speaker 38: Collection of experiences, their free frequency.
- 1:05:03Speaker 6: And their intensity. Life is not just watching the clock
- 1:05:10Speaker 6: tick away.
- 1:05:11Speaker 38: Life is a collection of experiences, their intensity, their frequency.
- 1:05:20Speaker 38: When my friend Mark died at age forty four, so
- 1:05:21Speaker 38: and says, that's young to die. But what if he
- 1:05:24Speaker 38: lived four lifetimes in one might not be too young.
- 1:05:27Speaker 38: So here's whatever the span of your life turns out
- 1:05:30Speaker 38: to be. Here's what you want to fill it up
- 1:05:32Speaker 38: with experiences and the intensity of those experiences.
- 1:05:36Speaker 27: And if you lose that, not only are you not
- 1:05:40Speaker 27: going to be successful in life, you will also lose
- 1:05:45Speaker 27: yourself and you will be you will be unhappy, you'll
- 1:05:48Speaker 27: be unfeeling. You'd be alienated from who you are. And
- 1:05:51Speaker 27: you can get away with that when you're young, because
- 1:05:54Speaker 27: you're happy, you look good, you've got energy, things are
- 1:05:57Speaker 27: going right. You get into your thirties and you're like
- 1:06:00Speaker 27: everybody else. You don't know who you are, and you
- 1:06:03Speaker 27: don't know what you like anymore. You're just following the trends.
- 1:06:06Speaker 27: You start to get depressed and you start going down
- 1:06:09Speaker 27: this rabbit hole and things can turn really ugly. So
- 1:06:13Speaker 27: you need a bit of courage in life. You need
- 1:06:15Speaker 27: to go, Okay, I am weird, I am strange, you know,
- 1:06:21Speaker 27: lean into it. So when I had the forty eight
- 1:06:26Speaker 27: Laws of Power, when at first, when I first wrote
- 1:06:29Speaker 27: the book without it being published yet, it was a
- 1:06:35Speaker 27: very strange looking book, and it reflects my own strangeness.
- 1:06:39Speaker 27: Things on the margins, stories, everything broken up, images, quotes
- 1:06:44Speaker 27: here and there.
- 1:06:45Speaker 38: And what a time now for us to take this
- 1:06:47Speaker 38: dream and not let it die. Take this dream and
- 1:06:51Speaker 38: give it life. Take this dream and breathe into it
- 1:06:54Speaker 38: your own personal spirit until finally it becomes a flame
- 1:06:59Speaker 38: that burns around the whole world.
- 1:07:02Speaker 58: Let's go do it now, well, macuse, I think the
- 1:07:06Speaker 58: greatest fear that we face is ourselves. Actually, you know,
- 1:07:09Speaker 58: I think it's it's not anything that's external or anything
- 1:07:14Speaker 58: that's superficial. I think the greatest fear you face is yourself,
- 1:07:16Speaker 58: because you know, we all have dreams, and then it's
- 1:07:20Speaker 58: very scary sometimes to accept the dream that you have,
- 1:07:24Speaker 58: and it's scarier still to say okay, I want that.
- 1:07:27Speaker 58: It's scary because you're afraid that if you put your
- 1:07:30Speaker 58: heart and soul into it and you fail, then how
- 1:07:33Speaker 58: are you going to feel about yourself?
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: Right?
- 1:07:35Speaker 58: So, being fearless means putting yourself out there and going
- 1:07:40Speaker 58: for it no matter what.
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: Go for it, not for anybody else, but for yourself.
- 1:07:46Speaker 6: Then here's a philosophy that really changed for me. Everything.
- 1:07:50Speaker 38: Be so busy giving other people recognition, you really don't
- 1:07:53Speaker 38: need it for yourself. I learned to recognize people for
- 1:07:58Speaker 38: small steps of progress, every little thing I can think of.
- 1:08:02Speaker 6: Figure out rewards for small steps.
- 1:08:04Speaker 74: And what works is if you dedicate your time and
- 1:08:08Speaker 74: your focus, like realistically, with a professional disciplined effort to creativity.
- 1:08:14Speaker 74: You show up every day like a professional, but you
- 1:08:16Speaker 74: show up to be creative. If you just do it
- 1:08:19Speaker 74: on a regular basis, ideas will come to you. Where
- 1:08:21Speaker 74: are these ideas coming from? Well, his concept was to
- 1:08:24Speaker 74: think of it as you're a professional and you're getting
- 1:08:28Speaker 74: these ideas from the muse, and as what you do.
- 1:08:29Speaker 74: You show up and you do the work, you focus
- 1:08:31Speaker 74: on it, and these ideas will come to you.
- 1:08:34Speaker 27: And that little voice comes completely drowned out, and so
- 1:08:38Speaker 27: you don't know who you are anymore. And you're afraid,
- 1:08:41Speaker 27: particularly young people today. I mean maybe it's always been
- 1:08:45Speaker 27: that way. So afraid of being different, they're so afraid
- 1:08:48Speaker 27: of being odd. But look at all the powerful people
- 1:08:51Speaker 27: in this world. Look at your elon musks, look at
- 1:08:55Speaker 27: your celebrities in entertainment, in business and policy. They're one
- 1:09:01Speaker 27: of a kind. I hate that word, but it's like
- 1:09:05Speaker 27: a brand. They're different. They stand out for something that's
- 1:09:07Speaker 27: truly different. You know, even Albert Einstein, there's nobody else
- 1:09:11Speaker 27: like as so there's nobody liked to vinshet. Okay, that's
- 1:09:15Speaker 27: where your power lies. And you'll go, oh, but Robert,
- 1:09:19Speaker 27: those are people that were brilliant, that were talented.
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: I'm not like that.
- 1:09:22Speaker 40: I don't have that.
- 1:09:23Speaker 27: Well, both you do have that, it's just you're forgetting
- 1:09:27Speaker 27: about it. You don't want to put the effort into it.
- 1:09:29Speaker 75: And there's no one more narcissistic than someone who's smart.
- 1:09:34Speaker 75: And if you are smart, that's a real temptation. It's
- 1:09:37Speaker 75: a real temptation and make you bitter as hell. The
- 1:09:40Speaker 75: most bitter people are the smart people who aren't successful
- 1:09:44Speaker 75: because they feel that their shining light wasn't given due
- 1:09:48Speaker 75: course and that the world should fall at their feet
- 1:09:50Speaker 75: and didn't.
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: The way the world works, you don't get.
- 1:09:55Speaker 75: A gift without a corresponding temptation, and intellect is certainly
- 1:10:00Speaker 75: it has the same characteristic. You can go very spectacularly
- 1:10:04Speaker 75: wrong if you're smart, and it's pride that does that.
- 1:10:08Speaker 76: When you set a dream and you say this is
- 1:10:10Speaker 76: what I'm going to do, I'm going to do this,
- 1:10:11Speaker 76: I'm going to do that, and you make a plan
- 1:10:13Speaker 76: and the plans are good, but if you come to
- 1:10:16Speaker 76: a certain point where there's a tree across the road
- 1:10:21Speaker 76: or the bridge is out, you can't say, well, there
- 1:10:24Speaker 76: goes my dream.
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: You've got to be flexible. Well what am I going
- 1:10:28Speaker 2: to do?
- 1:10:28Speaker 76: What adjustments am I going to make to be able
- 1:10:32Speaker 76: to still get to where I'm going to be what
- 1:10:35Speaker 76: I want to be. You need some flexibility, You need discipline,
- 1:10:40Speaker 76: you need personal discipline.
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: There's times when.
- 1:10:46Speaker 76: You don't feel like doing what needs to be done
- 1:10:52Speaker 76: to get this.
- 1:10:54Speaker 6: And but you've got to say, feelings has nothing to
- 1:10:57Speaker 6: do with it.
- 1:10:58Speaker 76: This is my dream, this is what I'm going to do.
- 1:11:03Speaker 14: Lots of people associate working hard with not making progress
- 1:11:06Speaker 14: that foal. Working feels like wasting.
- 1:11:11Speaker 7: So the idea that working hard doesn't make progress is
- 1:11:15Speaker 7: one of the biggest farces that exists in humanity, right,
- 1:11:19Speaker 7: and so if there is anything that's eternal for us,
- 1:11:21Speaker 7: at least as individuals, it's going to be who we
- 1:11:23Speaker 7: become in the process. And so one of my favorite
- 1:11:25Speaker 7: quotes is the work works on you more than you
- 1:11:28Speaker 7: work on it. And so if you want to be
- 1:11:31Speaker 7: the best in the world at something, you do the
- 1:11:33Speaker 7: work to become the best in the world, and the
- 1:11:35Speaker 7: work works on you. And so, I mean, there's a
- 1:11:38Speaker 7: biblical proverty. I think it says like there is profit
- 1:11:41Speaker 7: in all labor, and that means that even if the
- 1:11:47Speaker 7: thing that you're working on right now doesn't amount to
- 1:11:49Speaker 7: the outcome that you expected that it would, it doesn't
- 1:11:52Speaker 7: mean that you don't become better through doing it.
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: And so.
- 1:11:57Speaker 23: The whole point of the human race and the human
- 1:12:00Speaker 23: mind in it self is evolution, whether it's evolution spiritually, physically,
- 1:12:06Speaker 23: period evolution. The purpose from birth is creation. That's all
- 1:12:12Speaker 23: humans do. Everything around you is created. You were created,
- 1:12:17Speaker 23: that table over there created, this chair created, this might
- 1:12:19Speaker 23: create it, that camera.
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: Created that had created.
- 1:12:23Speaker 6: The whole point of the.
- 1:12:25Speaker 23: Human race itself is creation. Before now, when there was,
- 1:12:29Speaker 23: at least ideally that the belief of two human beings
- 1:12:34Speaker 23: on earth. Everything after that was a creation in it self.
- 1:12:40Speaker 23: The whole point is evolution and creation. If you're not evolving,
- 1:12:43Speaker 23: you're doing something wrong. So anything that takes away the
- 1:12:46Speaker 23: power of your mind is keeping you still and delaying
- 1:12:54Speaker 23: your evolution. The whole point of life is evolution. Study
- 1:12:59Speaker 23: of your life laws of the universe, the law of attraction,
- 1:13:03Speaker 23: the law of abundance, the law of equivalent exchange. Study
- 1:13:07Speaker 23: your laws, the laws of cause and effect, the karmic cycle.
- 1:13:11Speaker 23: Study your laws. Dwell into your mind, meditate. Understand that
- 1:13:16Speaker 23: you can alter your realms by your train of thought.
