• 0:01
  Speaker 1: And you're in hell week. And you're hour one of
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: 130 fucking hours. All you want to do is go
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: back home.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: You want the warmth. You may want something to eat.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: You want your girl to hold you.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: All those things of comfort are there in that one second.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: And this is where people lose. How hard that training is.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: I don't expect anybody to understand it.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: But 1%. But the loud voices of this world. Are
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: the 99% who don't understand exactly what you have to do.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: So I ended up doing like... Almost like back to
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: back 200 mile runs. So I got lost the first time.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: I got seriously sick. Was off course.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: So basically... I... Bed down... About 12 hours. Then I
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: got back in the race. I was still part of
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: the official race now. Got back in the race... After
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: 12 hours of being out of the race. So now...
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: I get to about 200 and some odd miles and
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: I'm sick as hell. Can't breathe.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: How to pulmonary edema. Now the doctor tells me, if
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: you get off course now and you go to the doctor,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: you won't be able to come back and finish the race.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: So I had to make a call. So this is
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: where you're talking about. I'm literally laying in bed and
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: I'm feeling better. I thought, honestly, I swear to God,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: I thought that someone was speaking to me. It was like,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: you're not done yet, motherfucker.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: It was actually probably my subconscious saying, get your ass
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: back out there.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: This isn't for glory.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: No. This is now for the fact that you can.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: So you can sit here and not and think about
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: that for a whole year. Or you can go out
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: there for yourself and take some kind of pride in
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: knowing that you could and you did. You figure it
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: out by going inside yourself. by callousing over the victim's mentality.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: You're always a victim, even if you have everything in life,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: until you realize.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: What you've achieved.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: And they forget that, and it takes a very, very
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: unique person and unique mind to do some of these
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: jobs that are necessary in this world. So we are
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: the only access. We have to save ourselves. Mental hardening,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: mental toughness, It's a perishable skill. Just because you went
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: through some training once and you got through it, doesn't
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: mean it lasts forever. And that's where most people hated
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: me because I realized that. You recall everything and you
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: definitely must recall when it comes to the mind. That
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: is one of the biggest requalifications you must have. And
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: when you're at that level, you got to recall every day.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: A lot of people, man, how do you do what
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: you do? At the end of the day, I ask
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: myself one question. Can I take one more step? And
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: usually the answer is yes. So if you can answer
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: that question and not take another step, that is real failure.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: So a lot of people can take one more step,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: but they choose not to. I don't know if you
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: can take two steps. You got to answer that question
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: after you take the first step. But I can always
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: take one more step. So if I choose not to,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: that's on me.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: And I got to live with that.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: All the fun.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Fucking times that I was like, this is, I'm not
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: going back. And I went back. I'm not going back.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: And I went back. I'm not going back. And I
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: went back.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: It showed me even more of what we have as humans,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: if we're willing to go there and we're willing to push.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: That extra step. I'm always looking for more.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: I'm always looking for what's the next thing for myself?
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: How can I grow? And that right there was the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: next thing for me.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: I had to take myself to the sewer to show people, hey,
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: I come from hell. Once you come face to face
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: with who you are, you have a starting point. All right,
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: I'm not real smart. I have no courage. I have
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: no self-esteem. I have no nothing.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Nothing. That's my starting point. Now we can move from there.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: What do you think most people get wrong about motivation?
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: They think it's a permanent fix. They think it's something
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: that is a constant. They think that maybe once I
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: get it, I'm going to hold on to it. Nothing
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: is permanent. Nothing is permanent. And a lot of times
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: you have to learn to perform without motivation. You have
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: to learn to perform without purpose. You have to learn
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: to perform a lot of different things. And that's what
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: people think. They think I need to have this motivation
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: to work out, to study, to be better. So if
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: they don't have it, they just don't do it. And
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: that's where you fail. You have to learn to train
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: your mind well beyond motivation. If you have motivation, that's great.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: That's some kindling to the fire. All it takes is
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: a little bit of spark and you can burn a
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: whole forest up. But motivation, you have to learn to
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: exist without it. You have to learn to be, you
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: have to be your best self and your least motivated.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: And that's the tricky part about all that. Motivation is
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: just a word.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: You have to have these different things in your mind
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: on where you want to go and know that motivation
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: is not going to get me there.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Because I'm not going to always be motivated. Jocko said
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: the exact same thing. You said that discipline eats motivation
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: for breakfast.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: But without a clear headspace, there's no discipline. Discipline is great.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Motivation is great. But if you can't fit shit in
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: your brain because it's all fucking cluttered with shit, there's
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: no discipline.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Let me use Hell Week. This is a perfect example.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Hell Week is 130 hours. And 130 hours is a
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: lot of seconds.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Let's say you're in extreme cold water and your life
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: is flashing before your eyes.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Every time that wave goes over your head, your thought
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: process is, I got to get the fuck out of
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: this water.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: And you're in hell week and you're hour one of
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: 130 fucking hours. And then this is where that one
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: second decision comes in. You forgot every reason why you
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: wanted to be there. You don't care about seals. You
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: don't care about any of this. You don't care about
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: fighting for your country. You don't care about that gaudy
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: gold trident that they.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Put on your chest. You don't care about any of
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: that shit no more. All you want to do is
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: go back home.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: You want the warmth. You may want something to eat.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: You want your girl to hold you. All those things
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: of comfort are there in that one second. And this
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: is where people lose. What I do in that one second,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: because we all think about quitting when it's hard. But
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: what you have to do in that one second is
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: hard to process information during pain.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Because that pain takes over and you can't think rationally.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: You're thinking about fight or flight, save yourself. That's not
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: a rational thought. It's not a thought that's going to
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: get you through hard times. Most people fail that one second.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: So what happens, what I do, I physically stayed in
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: that water. Because if I get out of the water,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I quit. So I physically stay in the water, but mentally,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: I'm on.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: The fucking beach with the fucking instructors. I'm still in
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: the water, physically, but mentally, I'm back, I'm chilling.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I got my parka on, and now I'm thinking logically,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: because I'm warm now.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: Mentally, I'm warm. I've taken that one second. Let's not
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: quit yet, guys. Let's fucking think about it. your options.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Where are you going to end up if you quit this?
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Where are you going to go? I calm my brain
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: down because your brain just wants to get the fuck out,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: ring the bell, push your helmet down, get warm.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: And then you're really fucked. And these are the things
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: you have to think about the one second decision. So that's,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: that's all about.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: It's about gaining control of your mind and then saying,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: I really do want to be here. And I'm going
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: to have a bunch of these one seconds through this.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: 130 hour journey.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: And I have to learn to control these because if
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: I fail one of these one seconds, I will not
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: be a SEAL. I will not be a doctor. I
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: will not be a lawyer. I will not be whatever
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: the fuck it is. So that's how important that one
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: second decision is. It's all about your mind takes control
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: of you.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: You have to say, fuck you. I run this mother.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: And that's what that's all about.
