  Morley here, serial entrepreneur.

  you here on the show.
• 0:39
  We have an amazing master topic for the
• 0:41
  week, which is seeing clearly, and I'm not
• 0:42
  just talking about seeing through your sunglasses or
• 0:45
  your regular glasses, or just seeing outside.
• 0:47
  All right, guys, if you're new here, I

  Really do appreciate that from the bottom of

• 1:12
  All right, guys, before we get into the
• 1:14

• 1:16
  obviously check out BelieveMeAchieved.com after the show

• 1:20
  you're thirsty, grab yourself something to drink, maybe
• 1:23
  something to eat, whatever that is, and come
• 1:25
  on back to the show.
• 1:27
  All right, guys, without further ado, let's go
• 1:29
  ahead and kick this off.
• 1:31
  This is Inspirations for Your Life.
• 1:32
  This is series five.
• 1:34
  Wow, we're in our fifth year, four years,
• 1:36
  and we're almost through our third month.
• 1:38
  Show 11, actually, yeah, it's going to be
• 1:42
  show, and it's episode number four.
• 1:45
  I can hardly believe that we are at
• 1:49
  that point already.
• 1:51
  Actually, it's about owning your power, guys, seeing
• 1:56
  clearly.
• 1:57
  And I think that's an important thing to
• 1:59
  definitely understand clearly.
• 2:03
  Our focus today is something that a lot
• 2:06
  of people don't realize, and that is the
• 2:08
  concept of new possibilities, new possibilities.
• 2:15
  And so new possibilities are pretty much all
• 2:20
  around us.
• 2:21
  The question is, are you paying attention to
• 2:24
  them?
• 2:24
  That's really, I think, what it comes down
• 2:26
  to.
• 2:26
  Are you paying attention to these things, or
• 2:30
  are you just letting them go by you?
• 2:32
  Because I think a lot of times people
• 2:33
  just, they don't get what something is or
• 2:38
  why something is a certain way.
• 2:40
  And I think sometimes when people say or
• 2:47
  they hear something, they think one way, but
• 2:49
  then they just don't get the full concept,
• 2:53
  right?
• 2:54
  They don't get the full concept.
• 2:55
  And the reason they don't get the full
• 2:56
  concept is this.
• 2:58
  It's because they're looking at the wrong direction,
• 3:02
  right?
• 3:02
  They're looking at the wrong direction.
• 3:04
  And I think that's an important thing to
• 3:08
  understand is that we are in the right
• 3:13
  path, right, at the right time.
• 3:18
  I think sometimes people get frustrated because of
• 3:23
  where they are at the current moment, and
• 3:26
  they think that there's no way to change
• 3:28
  that.
• 3:29
  And I want to tell you something, ladies
• 3:30
  and gentlemen, there absolutely is a way to
• 3:32
  change that.
• 3:33
  Don't let the current mislead you.
• 3:36
  Because a lot of people say, you know,
• 3:37
  John, I can't do this.
• 3:39
  Somebody else told me I can't.
• 3:40
  And just because somebody else told you that
• 3:42
  you can't do it doesn't mean that you
• 3:44
  can't do it.
• 3:45
  But if you believe that, okay, and by
• 3:48
  the way, guys, I was still on 11.
• 3:50
  It's actually series 12, excuse me, episode four.
• 3:54
  And, you know, the thing about this is
• 3:57
  a lot of people don't think new possibilities
• 4:00
  are even that they're even possible.
• 4:04
  They're in the old doldrums.
• 4:07
  And that's a real problem.
• 4:09
  And just to give a little bit of
• 4:10
  a background about me in case you guys
• 4:12
  didn't know, I'm John Seymourly.
• 4:14
  I'm a serial entrepreneur.
• 4:15
  I'm an engineer, marketing specialist, video producer, podcast
• 4:20
  host, coach.
• 4:23
  Passionate graduate student, lifelong learner.
• 4:25
  And ladies and gentlemen, you know what else
• 4:26
  I am?
• 4:27
  I am also going to be a graduate,
• 4:30
  not only graduate, but I'm going to be
• 4:33
  an author in just a few months.
• 4:38
  So I'm really looking forward to that.
• 4:40
  And today we're going to talk about something
• 4:42
  very interesting, and that is our seeing clearly
• 4:46
  option.
• 4:47
  Okay.
• 4:48
  Decision making, aligning choices.
• 4:50
  And today specifically, we're going to dive into
• 4:53
  new possibilities, uncovering clarity, courage, intentional action, and
• 4:58
  how you can expand opportunities and growth in
• 4:59
  every day of your life.
• 5:01
  Don't think that just because someone has said
• 5:04
  to you, you can't do something means you
• 5:06
  can't.
• 5:08
  Henry Ford said something a long time ago,
• 5:10
  and that was, if you believe you can,
• 5:12
  you're right.
• 5:12
  And if you believe you can't, you are
• 5:13
  also right.
• 5:14
  And I think that's a very important thing
• 5:16
  for us to understand, that new visions can
• 5:20
  come true when we believe.
• 5:22
  So Henry Ford said, if you believe you
• 5:23
  can, you're right.
• 5:24
  If you believe you can't, you're also right.
• 5:26
  Courage expands possibility.
• 5:29
  Bold steps open doors.
• 5:31
  The hesitation will always keep closed.
• 5:34
  Daring to act is the bridge from thought
• 5:36
  to impact.
• 5:37
  Growth begins with belief.
• 5:40
  Trusting your ability fuels persistence, confidence, and allows
• 5:44
  you to take risks others tend to avoid.
• 5:48
  Action, ladies and gentlemen, unlocks progress.
• 5:51
  Ideas remain static until what?
• 5:54
  You decide to take action.
• 5:56
  You decide to execute something.
• 5:58
  Momentum is generated one step at a time.
• 6:01
  Opportunity, rewards, effort, consistent, deliberate effort compounds results.
• 6:07
  The universe responds to energy put into action.
• 6:11
  That's the bottom line.
• 6:13
  You have the ability, ladies and gentlemen, to
• 6:15
  put things into action.
• 6:17
  But are you doing it?
• 6:18
  I think that's the real important thing.
• 6:20
  Are you doing it or are you waiting
• 6:23
  for someone else to basically, I'm going to
• 6:27
  say, do it for you?
• 6:30
  I think that's a very important thing.
• 6:34
  And if we can realize that one concept,
• 6:37
  the fact that we can make that difference
• 6:40
  in our life, our life will change.
• 6:42
  Movement builds momentum, guys.
• 6:44
  Forward motion creates self-reinforcing cycles of confidence
• 6:48
  and clarity.
• 6:49
  Inertia favors those who act.
• 6:52
  That's right, guys.
• 6:52
  I said those who act.
• 6:54
  I didn't see those who sit basically on
• 6:59
  a bench and hope that they're going to
• 7:04
  act.
• 7:05
  I didn't say that.
• 7:06
  All right.
• 7:07
  I said those that are going to take
• 7:09
  action because the ones that act, the world
• 7:12
  is their oyster.
• 7:14
  The world is their oyster.
• 7:16
  All right.
• 7:18
  I think a lot of people don't realize
• 7:23
  that the world really is their oyster.
• 7:27
  And so I want you to understand that
• 7:34
  life can change if you allow it.
• 7:36
  Fresh thinking reveals solutions.
• 7:39
  Stepping outside habitual patterns uncovers approaches others miss.
• 7:43
  Creativity emerges from perspective shifts.
• 7:46
  That's right.
• 7:47
  Perspective shifts.
• 7:47
  I'm not talking about gigantic shifts, I'm talking
• 7:52
  about minor perspective changes in your life.
• 7:57
  And again, I know that this sounds like
• 8:00
  something that maybe, you know, you don't quite
• 8:03
  understand, but I want to tell you something.
• 8:06
  This is the key, guys.
• 8:08
  This is what's going to get you to
• 8:10
  the promised land.
• 8:12
  Initiative creates discovery, proactively exploring challenges leads to
• 8:17
  insights, waiting for permission often causes delays.
• 8:21
  Yes, it does, guys.
• 8:22
  And it causes frustration.
• 8:24
  So possibility grows through the action.
• 8:27
  Every intentional step amplifies potential.
• 8:31
  Doing triggers feedback that always refines strategy.
• 8:35
  And a lot of people, I think, are
• 8:36
  scared of that concept, the fact that this
• 8:39
  can do something.
• 8:40
  And vision, guys, fuels progress.
• 8:43
  A clear mental picture guides decisions, reduces doubt
• 8:46
  and aligns daily actions with long term goals.
• 8:50
  That's what life is about, guys.
• 8:52
  It's about you grabbing it and going after
• 8:55
  it.
• 8:56
  Determination strengthens outcomes.
• 8:59
  Commitment through challenges.
• 9:00
  There's going to be challenges, guys.
• 9:03
  And you have to stick through it to
• 9:05
  ensure you get results.
• 9:07
  Perseverance will always turn obstacles into leverage.
• 9:09
  And I think that's a I think that's
• 9:11
  a very important thing that many people miss.
• 9:14
  They don't think that they can do this.
• 9:16
  And as I said from Henry Ford, if
• 9:17
  we believe we can, we're right.
• 9:20
  And if we can't, we're also right.
• 9:22
  So that means that our, let's say, perception
• 9:27
  creates reality.
• 9:30
  And so just the way we think makes
• 9:34
  a big difference.
• 9:36
  And you might say to me, John, I
• 9:38
  don't quite understand that.
• 9:40
  And I want to tell you why that
• 9:42
  is so important.
• 9:43
  It's important because it shapes your belief.
• 9:47
  All right.
• 9:48
  It shapes your belief.
• 9:50
  And your belief is important.
• 9:52
  All right.
• 9:52
  Your belief is important.
• 9:55
  And so you have to realize that if
• 9:59
  you put something out there and it happens,
• 10:02
  you get more confident.
• 10:04
  You want to do more.
• 10:05
  So I tell people set a bar low
• 10:07
  first, get confidence and then raise that bar.
• 10:09
  Right.
• 10:10
  Because then you're going to get energy built
• 10:12
  up, like stored potential energy.
• 10:14
  So courage drives opportunity facing fear.
• 10:17
  What's fear?
• 10:18
  Fear is false evidence appearing real.
• 10:20
  Unlock those doors that hesitation keeps closed.
• 10:23
  You know, amplify every strategic choice.
• 10:27
  Initiative builds confidence, acting without waiting for perfect
• 10:31
  conditions, reinforces self-trust.
• 10:33
  Competence grows with experience.
• 10:35
  Now, some people said to me, John, and
• 10:36
  this is a really, really important one, and
• 10:39
  that is this.
• 10:40
  That is the fact that people will do
• 10:45
  one thing because someone else is doing that
• 10:50
  might not necessarily be the right way to
• 10:52
  do it, guys.
• 10:54
  No.
• 10:54
  And the reason I say that is people
• 10:57
  get off track because of a belief someone
• 11:02
  else had.
• 11:04
  Right.
• 11:04
  And so we know that the more that
• 11:07
  we believe in ourselves, the more that we
• 11:10
  can grow, the more that we can change
• 11:14
  who we are.
• 11:15
  All right.
• 11:16
  And I think that's a I think that's
• 11:18
  a very important thing for a lot of
• 11:20
  us to understand.
• 11:21
  We have the ability.
• 11:23
  OK, we have the ability to make changes.
• 11:28
  All right.
• 11:29
  And I will tell you guys that this
• 11:31
  is something you don't want to take lightly.
• 11:34
  All right.
• 11:35
  You have the ability to do more than
• 11:38
  you thought possible.
• 11:42
  And again, I think sometimes that gets people
• 11:47
  off track.
• 11:48
  But once we start to build that inertia,
• 11:50
  once we build that confidence, it's like taking
• 11:53
  an engine that you have to crank, you
• 11:55
  know, like if you have to crank an
• 11:56
  engine, once you get that crank, the engine
• 11:58
  starting, bam, it takes off.
• 12:00
  Or once you get that battery charged, guess
• 12:02
  what?
• 12:03
  It just takes off.
• 12:06
  And I think that's something that a lot
• 12:07
  of people don't realize.
• 12:10
  They don't realize that they can do so
• 12:13
  much more if they just believe they can
• 12:17
  do more.
• 12:19
  And that's something that a lot of people
• 12:22
  are going to flounder on for days, for
• 12:26
  months, for years.
• 12:28
  Action, ladies and gentlemen, expands potential.
• 12:31
  Each step that you take forward broadens your
• 12:33
  capacity, your effort.
• 12:35
  That all expands with what you previously thought
• 12:38
  was possible.
• 12:39
  Again, what you previously thought possible.
• 12:43
  So your thoughts, ladies and gentlemen, they create.
• 12:47
  Your reality, they create your reality, and I
• 12:54
  think that's something that a lot of people
• 12:56
  like, they just don't get it.
• 12:59
  And the reason they don't get it is
• 13:01
  because other people tell me, hey, you know,
• 13:03
  I can't do this.
• 13:06
  And the I can't do this is sounding
• 13:11
  louder than the other things in their head.
• 13:15
  OK, I want to tell you that sometimes
• 13:19
  if you're maybe you're going somewhere and there's
• 13:21
  a few people speaking, all right, what you
• 13:23
  have to understand.
• 13:25
  Is that.
• 13:27
  If you can do something and you believe
• 13:32
  in it, you will do it.
• 13:35
  All right.
• 13:35
  But if you believe you can't do something,
• 13:40
  you're going to get.
• 13:42
  Really sidetracked.
• 13:43
  All right.
• 13:46
  And so our belief doesn't just do something.
• 13:54
  Let's say to our mind, but it does
• 13:57
  something physically to our mind and chemically, and
• 14:01
  that, ladies and gentlemen, makes a huge difference
• 14:04
  of what we want in our lives.
• 14:08
  When our body can see and our mind
• 14:11
  can see that, hey, you know, we're doing
• 14:12
  something.
• 14:12
  Opportunity grows through persistence, guys.
• 14:16
  Returning to the challenge repeatedly unlocks results.
• 14:19
  Patience combined with consistency compounds impact.
• 14:23
  This isn't a one off thing.
• 14:24
  This is something you do one time.
• 14:26
  This is something you do over and over
• 14:29
  and over again.
• 14:31
  It's not something that you're going to do
• 14:33
  just because today seems like the day you
• 14:36
  want to do it.
• 14:37
  No, guys, this happens every single day of
• 14:40
  your life.
• 14:41
  And the question I ask you is, when
• 14:44
  are you going to act?
• 14:45
  When are you going to respond?
• 14:47
  And that might sound like a daunting thing,
• 14:51
  but you know what happens once you respond
• 14:53
  once and once you start to feel good
• 14:56
  about something.
• 14:58
  You keep responding, it becomes this autonomous habit
• 15:01
  that you want to keep doing.
• 15:03
  And I think that's a part that a
• 15:05
  lot of people don't get in life.
• 15:07
  They don't get the fact that they can
• 15:09
  make that change.
• 15:12
  I don't even call it a change.
• 15:13
  I want to call it a slight pivotal
• 15:16
  switch.
• 15:19
  Believe strengthens courage.
• 15:21
  You know, that's that's my slogan.
• 15:22
  It's been it for years.
• 15:24
  BelieveMeAchieve.com.
• 15:28
  And I think if you can understand that
• 15:32
  it all starts in your mind, OK?
• 15:36
  Everything starts in your mind.
• 15:39
  Then you can realize that you can go
• 15:42
  other places.
• 15:43
  You know, a wise person once told me
• 15:45
  this.
• 15:47
  Where you go in the mind, the body
• 15:50
  will eventually follow.
• 15:54
  That's a very important thing, guys.
• 15:58
  And I say it's important because you will
• 16:04
  do that if you believe you can.
• 16:11
  So belief strengthens our courage, confidence in your
• 16:15
  mission fuels risk-taking.
• 16:18
  Yeah.
• 16:18
  What you believe in determines how far you
• 16:23
  actually go.
• 16:24
  So your belief, guys, is so darn important.
• 16:29
  I mean, so important.
• 16:33
  All right.
• 16:34
  Important enough that I believe you can make
• 16:36
  a difference in your life.
• 16:41
  And that difference, guys.
• 16:44
  Is not something that you're going to see
• 16:46
  one little change with over time, you're going
• 16:49
  to see exponential growth, you're going to see
• 16:54
  exponential growth.
• 16:58
  And exponential growth.
• 17:01
  Happens just like compounding of our money, of
• 17:03
  stocks, of CDs, right?
• 17:06
  I think when we start to realize.
• 17:10
  That a pivotal shift is not that hard.
• 17:16
  And when we keep showing up and we
• 17:18
  keep doing that day in and day out.
• 17:23
  Okay.
• 17:25
  We change.
• 17:28
  You know what happens?
• 17:29
  I'm going to give you a perfect example.
• 17:31
  So many years ago, if you guys know
• 17:33
  that I was like 250 pounds, now I'm
• 17:35
  like 165.
• 17:36
  Now, I didn't make this choice because of
• 17:42
  anything that a doctor, medical or anybody said
• 17:46
  to me.
• 17:47
  I made this choice because of me.
• 17:50
  All right, John, what was the reason?
• 17:52
  I'm going to tell you the reason.
• 17:53
  The reason is I had this iPhone, which
• 17:56
  I still do.
• 17:56
  And it was on my belt, like on
• 17:58
  the side.
• 17:59
  And every time I get in the car,
• 18:00
  I kept knocking it off.
• 18:02
  And I said, enough is enough.
• 18:03
  I can't do this anymore.
• 18:06
  And that's when I realized that I had
• 18:09
  to do something, that I had to make
• 18:11
  a difference in my life.
• 18:14
  And I had to realize that I had
• 18:16
  to change.
• 18:16
  So what I do first, I hired a
• 18:18
  personal trainer.
• 18:20
  I then fired that personal trainer, did that
• 18:23
  five or six more times.
• 18:24
  So with like six personal trainers.
• 18:27
  Okay.
• 18:29
  And a lot of these personal trainers were
• 18:32
  all about knocking me.
• 18:35
  Trying to get me to spend more money
• 18:37
  with them, invest in these projects with them
• 18:41
  to rebuild my body.
• 18:45
  But, you know, guys, that's not what it
• 18:48
  was about.
• 18:49
  It was about mental discipline.
• 18:54
  So this one gym owner, I said to
• 18:56
  him, I said, so let me ask you
• 18:59
  a question.
• 18:59
  He said, yeah.
• 19:00
  I said, how many gyms do you have?
• 19:03
  He goes, I have 14.
• 19:08
  And so that was impressive, right?
• 19:11
  But what I later learned, and this changed
• 19:14
  the whole trajectory for me, is that he
• 19:19
  had 14 or 15 gyms.
• 19:24
  He has one right now, one, one.
• 19:33
  So that means, guys, you know what that
• 19:35
  means?
• 19:35
  That means that he is not doing something
• 19:38
  right and abusing your clients and trying to
• 19:42
  pin them up with other people at the
• 19:43
  same time and, and bill for both hours.
• 19:46
  That's not proper, guys.
• 19:51
  So you might say, John, how did I
• 19:53
  lose the weight?
• 19:55
  Being an engineer, I decided to take a
• 19:57
  scientific approach.
• 20:00
  And I decided that the best thing was
• 20:04
  to invest in this technology, which I did.
• 20:06
  And basically what it does is it reads
• 20:09
  your O2 level.
• 20:10
  If your O2 level is high, you are
• 20:13
  burning carbs.
• 20:16
  If it's low, you're burning fat.
• 20:23
  That's pretty interesting, guys.
• 20:26
  Right.
• 20:27
  And you might say to me, a lot
• 20:30
  of people would think that's something that's easy
• 20:34
  to do.
• 20:34
  But I want to tell you something.
• 20:36
  It's not easy to do.
• 20:39
  It took discipline.
• 20:41
  Now, after I started doing this, of course,
• 20:43
  I watched my weight and I used things
• 20:44
  like my, my, my fitness pal.
• 20:47
  But guys, it was more than that.
• 20:50
  Okay, it was more than that.
• 20:52
  I got into this, this plan, a consistent
• 20:55
  small plan, checking my breath, logging my food,
• 20:58
  very easy, very simple things, didn't deprive myself.
• 21:04
  And at the end of that year, really,
• 21:08
  it was really toward, I'm going to say
• 21:10
  I started around October.
• 21:12
  And by the time, like, say, February rolled
• 21:15
  around, I was like, wow, I lost a
• 21:17
  few pants sizes.
• 21:19
  And that seemed very interesting to me.
• 21:22
  Okay.
• 21:24
  But that all happened because of a shift
• 21:28
  I made, a shift I made in my
• 21:32
  lifestyle.
• 21:39
  And the shift of trying to lose 250
• 21:41
  pounds, that might be hard.
• 21:43
  But just saying, hey, I'm going to make
• 21:44
  a shift to make a change, just to
• 21:47
  feel better.
• 21:48
  Then I'm like, wow, I lost all this
• 21:49
  weight.
• 21:50
  So effort reveals opportunities.
• 21:51
  The more energy you put in, the more
• 21:53
  pathways you see.
• 21:55
  Results often emerges, guys, from relentless engagement.
• 21:58
  Possibility favors action.
• 22:00
  Fortune doesn't follow hesitation.
• 22:02
  Movement creates leverage, visibility, and progress.
• 22:05
  Vision expands direction.
• 22:07
  Clear objectives guide resource allocation.
• 22:11
  You know where to focus energy and attention.
• 22:14
  Do it.
• 22:15
  Movement strengthens growth.
• 22:17
  Continuous effort promotes learning.
• 22:19
  Repetition allows skill, mastery, and strategic insight.
• 22:24
  Initiative unlocks progress.
• 22:26
  Seizing opportunities before they vanish puts you ahead.
• 22:30
  Waiting reduces the advantage.
• 22:35
  That statement really makes me think, makes me
• 22:41
  think that we're full of possibilities.
• 22:46
  Okay.
• 22:47
  We are full of possibilities.
• 22:49
  And if we are full of possibilities, then
• 22:53
  I'm going to tell you something.
• 22:56
  There's a lot that we can do, an
• 22:59
  awful lot that we can do in our
• 23:00
  life.
• 23:01
  Okay.
• 23:02
  And that's something that maybe you didn't think
• 23:05
  was possible.
• 23:07
  But again, guys, it is.
• 23:09
  Courage fuels innovation.
• 23:11
  Bold experimentation drives breakthroughs.
• 23:14
  Calculated risks transform industries and personal performance.
• 23:18
  Persistence builds opportunity.
• 23:20
  Long-term consistency allows compounding wins.
• 23:23
  Each small step reinforces future success.
• 23:30
  That's pretty amazing, guys.
• 23:33
  That's amazing.
• 23:34
  Action, guys, reveals solutions.
• 23:37
  Testing, trying, and adjusting, I like to call
• 23:40
  it creative playing, uncovers answers.
• 23:43
  Practical execution solves theoretical problems.
• 23:46
  Determination strengthens momentum.
• 23:49
  Focus, tenacity prevents stalling.
• 23:51
  Progress compounds as effort accumulates.
• 23:54
  Vision inspires action.
• 23:56
  A vivid goal motivates you to start, sustain,
• 23:59
  and improve clarity.
• 24:00
  And it fuels your movement.
• 24:03
  It fuels your movement.
• 24:05
  And you can do this, guys.
• 24:08
  Don't get, let's say, put back because of
• 24:13
  something that, you know, you feel.
• 24:17
  And chances are, you're feeling that way because
• 24:20
  somebody made you feel that way.
• 24:23
  Remember, ladies and gentlemen, no one has the
• 24:25
  right to make you feel any way unless
• 24:30
  you give them permission.
• 24:32
  So, you're the only one that should allow
• 24:34
  people to make you feel a way, especially
• 24:37
  if it's not a good way.
• 24:39
  Courage drives progress.
• 24:40
  Stepping outside your comfort zone accelerates growth.
• 24:43
  Stagnation and is the cause, ladies and gentlemen,
• 24:46
  to make you feel that way.
• 24:46
  And what's fear, guys?
• 24:49
  Fear is false evidence appearing real.
• 24:56
  False evidence appearing real.
• 25:01
  I think if we can get that concept,
• 25:04
  if we can understand like what that means
• 25:06
  to us, we can really change what we're
• 25:12
  doing in life.
• 25:13
  But I get that a lot of you
• 25:15
  out there are going to say to me,
• 25:16
  John, I don't quite get this.
• 25:18
  And so that's why there's some experimentation.
• 25:23
  Opportunity grows through effort, persistence, and energy allocation.
• 25:27
  Unlock hidden potential.
• 25:29
  Visible rewards emerge gradually, like my weight loss.
• 25:32
  Suddenly I was like, wow, I got a
• 25:33
  surprise.
• 25:35
  Action builds discovery.
• 25:36
  Exploration through execution uncovers insights.
• 25:39
  Passive observation rarely yields breakthrough results.
• 25:42
  You want to sit on the couch all
• 25:44
  day?
• 25:44
  Probably not going to lose weight.
• 25:46
  Growth expands your future.
• 25:48
  Every intentional choice, effort, and courageous step multiplies
• 25:52
  your long-term capacity.
• 25:53
  A clear vision combined with deliberate action shapes
• 25:57
  the life that you want.
• 25:59
  And I think that's what all of us
• 26:01
  want here.
• 26:01
  We want to have that choice.
• 26:05
  And somebody says to me, John, you know,
• 26:07
  but I want freedom.
• 26:08
  I get it, you can have freedom.
• 26:10
  You know, when you add a little bit
• 26:11
  of structure to your life, guess what happens?
• 26:14
  Freedom becomes inevitable.
• 26:18
  Now I say this to you because people
• 26:21
  say, oh, I don't want to be in
• 26:22
  a structure.
• 26:22
  I'm in a structure, then I don't want
• 26:23
  freedom.
• 26:25
  You have freedom, guys.
• 26:27
  You have freedom.
• 26:29
  A little structure will give you so much
• 26:31
  freedom.
• 26:34
  This episode, ladies and gentlemen, is a reminder
• 26:36
  to all of you.
• 26:38
  Seeking clarity, acting deliberately, and facing challenges with
• 26:42
  courage will transform your potential into real-world
• 26:45
  results.
• 26:46
  Your future is built from the small intentional
• 26:48
  actions you take today.
• 26:53
  Start taking a daily action, even something small.
• 26:57
  Because when you do, it will compound into
• 27:01
  things that you never dreamt were possible.
• 27:06
  Ladies and gentlemen, I'm John C.
• 27:07
  Morley, serial entrepreneur.

  Have yourself a great rest of your day

• 27:37
  Those small acts compound and turn into monumental,
• 27:43
  amazing progress and abundant success.
• 27:48
  That doesn't happen from sitting on the bench
• 27:50
  or sitting on the couch watching TV all
• 27:52
  day.

  Have a good one, and I'll catch you
