  Speaker 1: Sun don't stop for nobody, man. That sun is going
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: to be up in the morning regardless of how I feel.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: The sun is going to shine in the morning and
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: at nighttime the moon is going to be there and
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: you're going to look up and these days are going
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: to keep going by.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: A lot of life is uncomfortable.
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: A lot of this experience is not easy.
• 0:17
  Speaker 4: I don't care who you are. It's not easy waking
• 0:19
  Speaker 4: up first thing in the morning.
• 0:21
  Speaker 5: You don't always want to get up out of bed.
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: You're signing up to have some moments where it's really
• 0:27
  Speaker 4: uncomfortable and painful.
• 0:30
  Speaker 6: Acknowledging our suffering, being in touch with the pain, that's
• 0:34
  Speaker 6: enough to say, I can't do this. I don't want
• 0:36
  Speaker 6: to do this anymore. Like this is not the person
• 0:39
  Speaker 6: I want to become.
• 0:41
  Speaker 7: I know it's painful every time you got to make
• 0:45
  Speaker 7: a sacrifice, but I'm telling you the pain of success
• 0:48
  Speaker 7: is better than the pain of failure. And now is
• 0:51
  Speaker 7: the time for you to make a decision.
• 0:53
  Speaker 8: On what pain you want.
• 0:55
  Speaker 9: Whatever your goal is, you have to get there.
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: Even though people are gonna say you can't do it,
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: even though people are gonna throw different opportunities. I'm sure
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: your friends went out a million times to happy hour
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: when you just stayed late.
• 1:09
  Speaker 8: You got skill and you got will.
• 1:11
  Speaker 7: You got skill and you got will.
• 1:15
  Speaker 8: Two total different things.
• 1:16
  Speaker 7: You were born with certain things, but to get to
• 1:18
  Speaker 7: the next level, and not just get to the next level,
• 1:21
  Speaker 7: to stay at the next level, you gotta have will
• 1:24
  Speaker 7: when you get to.
• 1:24
  Speaker 8: That next level.
• 1:25
  Speaker 10: Working hard is the cost of entry of winning.
• 1:28
  Speaker 7: Now is the time for you to say, I'm ready.
• 1:31
  Speaker 7: I'm ready to take the next step.
• 1:34
  Speaker 11: Find out what it is you want, and go after
• 1:37
  Speaker 11: it as if your life depends on it.
• 1:40
  Speaker 8: Why? Because it does.
• 1:44
  Speaker 12: Stay positive, stay focused, and most importantly, stay strong.
• 1:49
  Speaker 7: 90% is work, but the last 10%, that's fight. Can
• 1:54
  Speaker 7: we make that happen? Can we make that happen? Can
• 1:57
  Speaker 7: we make that happen? I'm talking about beast mode.
• 2:06
  Speaker 13: I think the late, great Michael Jackson said it best.
• 2:11
  Speaker 13: I'm starting with the man in the mirror. I'm asking
• 2:14
  Speaker 13: him to make that change. See, a strange thing happens
• 2:18
  Speaker 13: when you realize that you're driving in the wrong lane.
• 2:22
  Speaker 13: That's when you have to self-assess. Hit reset or refresh
• 2:26
  Speaker 13: and make the choice to revise and rearrange. See, sometimes
• 2:31
  Speaker 13: it's hard to see clearly when you're looking through the
• 2:33
  Speaker 13: wrong lens and wearing the wrong frame. The pain, shame,
• 2:39
  Speaker 13: and stain of failure can be crippling at times. And
• 2:43
  Speaker 13: the rippling effects are hard to overcome when you feel
• 2:45
  Speaker 13: like everyone expects you to be at your best at
• 2:48
  Speaker 13: all times. That's entirely too much pressure, my friend. And
• 2:55
  Speaker 13: too much pressure can lead to you being a lesser
• 2:57
  Speaker 13: version of your usual phenomenal self. So I'm personally granting
• 3:04
  Speaker 13: you permission to relax. Eliminate all worries and doubts. Take
• 3:09
  Speaker 13: a moment to reboot. Replant seeds of success and prepare
• 3:14
  Speaker 13: them to sprout.
• 3:14
  Speaker 14: I get it.
• 3:17
  Speaker 13: Your classes are overwhelming this semester. Test after test after test.
• 3:23
  Speaker 13: And as of right now, your grades are a mess.
• 3:26
  Speaker 13: Which is the exact reason for all of your.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Struggle, strife, and stress.
• 3:31
  Speaker 13: But if you're an ears reaching my voice, you're about
• 3:34
  Speaker 13: to be blessed. This is the moment the old you
• 3:39
  Speaker 13: meets the new you. Because I know someone who went
• 3:43
  Speaker 13: through and overcame the exact same issue. But didn't need
• 3:48
  Speaker 13: a tissue because this person made the choice to human up.
• 3:52
  Speaker 13: And that's exactly what you are about to do. Break
• 3:55
  Speaker 13: it down and add just a little more effort. Add
• 3:59
  Speaker 13: just a little more planning. Add just a little more focus.
• 4:02
  Speaker 13: Add just a little more time management. Add just a
• 4:06
  Speaker 13: little more patience. Add just a little more studying. Add
• 4:10
  Speaker 13: just a little more listening. Add just a little more discipline.
• 4:16
  Speaker 13: She started with the woman in the mirror and asked herself,
• 4:21
  Speaker 13: why is she struggling with her classes? She was brutally
• 4:25
  Speaker 13: honest with herself. The answer was, She wasn't giving each
• 4:30
  Speaker 13: class enough study time. And at that very moment, everything changed.
• 4:35
  Speaker 13: Because she decided to make studying one of her top
• 4:38
  Speaker 13: priorities in life and set.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Her butt down.
• 4:42
  Speaker 13: She pulled out a calendar and wrote, W-R-O-T-E, down how
• 4:47
  Speaker 13: much time.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: She would spend studying for each class each day.
• 4:52
  Speaker 13: See, if you're struggling in your classes and you don't
• 4:54
  Speaker 13: have a written down plan for the least amount of
• 4:57
  Speaker 13: time you will spend studying and preparing for each class,
• 5:01
  Speaker 13: you stop this video right now. Go get you a
• 5:04
  Speaker 13: pencil and a planner and map a study course for
• 5:08
  Speaker 13: your success out right now. You can come back to
• 5:15
  Speaker 13: this exact point when you're finished because once you write
• 5:19
  Speaker 13: it down, it becomes real.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: And that's just the beginning.
• 5:25
  Speaker 13: Because see, my friend said writing it down was the
• 5:28
  Speaker 13: easy part.
• 5:31
  Speaker 7: She said the execution and follow through is what will
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: test your heart. And when the real work starts, she
• 5:39
  Speaker 7: said it wasn't easy.
• 5:41
  Speaker 13: And there were times that she got off schedule. But
• 5:44
  Speaker 13: because she had a written down course of action and
• 5:47
  Speaker 13: she consistently followed her schedule, it really worked. Because she
• 5:53
  Speaker 13: went from being on the brink of failing all of
• 5:55
  Speaker 13: her classes at the midpoint of the semester to passing
• 5:58
  Speaker 13: all of her classes with honors. So what you going
• 6:02
  Speaker 13: to do, bro? What you going to do, sis? Success
• 6:07
  Speaker 13: is yours for the taking. And if I'm not mistaken,
• 6:10
  Speaker 13: you said your goal was to pass every class. If
• 6:13
  Speaker 13: I'm not mistaken you said your goal was to never
• 6:16
  Speaker 13: again finish last. If I'm not mistaken you said your
• 6:19
  Speaker 13: goal was to never be broken like glass. If I'm
• 6:23
  Speaker 13: not mistaken you said your goal was to always be
• 6:27
  Speaker 13: driven and never crash.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: This is your dream, not mine.
• 6:33
  Speaker 7: And you said your goal was to pass every class.
• 6:36
  Speaker 7: You said your goal.
• 6:37
  Speaker 13: Was to never again finish last.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: You said your goal was to.
• 6:41
  Speaker 13: Never be broken like glass.
• 6:43
  Speaker 7: You said your goal was to always be driven and.
• 6:47
  Speaker 13: Never ever crash. So all excuses, you throw them in
• 6:50
  Speaker 13: the trash because it's your time to blow up and
• 6:53
  Speaker 13: blast off because never again will you be a cast
• 6:56
  Speaker 13: off because the old you is gone. You took the
• 6:59
  Speaker 13: mask off the sirens of panic I'll stop you turn
• 7:02
  Speaker 13: the flash off lock in with me there is absolutely
• 7:11
  Speaker 13: no reason why you can't succeed all you got to
• 7:15
  Speaker 13: do is water the seeds of success that are planted
• 7:18
  Speaker 13: in your heart sometimes you may have to change the
• 7:22
  Speaker 13: fertilizer to get a new spark meaning make the necessary
• 7:26
  Speaker 13: adjustments And give yourself a.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: Brand new start. You got this.
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: This is a great day.
• 7:38
  Speaker 13: To win.
• 7:41
  Speaker 9: Your excuses will destroy you and take everything that you
• 7:44
  Speaker 9: ever wanted from you. If you let them. When your
• 7:51
  Speaker 9: excuses make you feel a little bit better about the
• 7:54
  Speaker 9: fact that you didn't execute on what you needed to
• 7:57
  Speaker 9: execute on, then they can make you feel better. But
• 8:01
  Speaker 9: they're not helping you. They're not helping you at all.
• 8:07
  Speaker 15: Why does discipline equal freedom?
• 8:10
  Speaker 9: Because the more discipline you have in your life, the
• 8:12
  Speaker 9: more freedom you will end up with. So if you
• 8:17
  Speaker 9: lack the discipline to exercise and eat healthy, you will
• 8:23
  Speaker 9: end up being a slave to disease. If you lack
• 8:28
  Speaker 9: the discipline to work hard, save your money, you will
• 8:35
  Speaker 9: end up a slave to finances. If you lack the
• 8:40
  Speaker 9: discipline to manage your time correctly, you will end up
• 8:45
  Speaker 9: with no free time. If you have self-discipline, if you
• 8:50
  Speaker 9: have the discipline to save your money and work hard
• 8:53
  Speaker 9: and invest your money properly, if you have the discipline
• 8:58
  Speaker 9: to manage your time correctly and not waste a bunch
• 9:00
  Speaker 9: of time, if you have the discipline to exercise and
• 9:04
  Speaker 9: eat healthy, you will end up with freedom. If you
• 9:08
  Speaker 9: want freedom in your life, you have to have discipline.
• 9:11
  Speaker 9: Because if you're a kid right now and you're eating
• 9:13
  Speaker 9: Doritos off your belly, I know they taste good and
• 9:16
  Speaker 9: there's some immediate gratification and I get that. But I'm
• 9:19
  Speaker 9: going to tell you, it starts right now. Throw that
• 9:22
  Speaker 9: bag of Doritos away.
• 9:23
  Speaker 8: Get rid of it.
• 9:25
  Speaker 9: Go do some pushups. Go spend $ 12 at the hardware
• 9:29
  Speaker 9: store and hang up a pull-up bar in your room
• 9:31
  Speaker 9: and start doing pull-ups. And if you can't do one pull-up,
• 9:33
  Speaker 9: hang on that bar. And you're going to start to
• 9:36
  Speaker 9: get a little bit stronger. You're going to start to.
• 9:38
  Speaker 16: Get a little bit healthier.
• 9:39
  Speaker 9: You're going to start to get more focused. You're going
• 9:42
  Speaker 9: to start to become more resilient. And you're going to
• 9:45
  Speaker 9: start to understand the world better. And you're going to
• 9:49
  Speaker 9: start to progress in every aspect of your life. And
• 9:56
  Speaker 9: you'll see that if you have that kind of discipline
• 9:58
  Speaker 9: right now, you're going to end up with freedom. Because
• 10:02
  Speaker 9: you're sad, now you're going to make a bunch of
• 10:04
  Speaker 9: bad decisions because you're sad. No, no, it doesn't work
• 10:06
  Speaker 9: like that. It doesn't work like that. You're sad, okay.
• 10:12
  Speaker 9: You get emotional sometimes, okay. Got it. Now, get control
• 10:16
  Speaker 9: of your emotions and carry on with your life. And
• 10:19
  Speaker 9: sometimes you're going to get hit with those waves, and
• 10:21
  Speaker 9: that's okay. No, at a certain point, you say, okay,
• 10:27
  Speaker 9: my emotions are now leading me down the wrong path.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: I'm in control.
• 10:33
  Speaker 9: I'm not going to allow my emotions to make my decisions.
• 10:36
  Speaker 9: They're in the calculus. I'm not saying take your emotions
• 10:40
  Speaker 9: out of the calculus, but they have to be one
• 10:42
  Speaker 9: component of your calculus, not the whole equation. You can't
• 10:47
  Speaker 9: pull them out of there or they'll bite you. But
• 10:50
  Speaker 9: you can't make them the overwhelming denominator of everything that
• 10:54
  Speaker 9: you do or it's going to be problematic. You have
• 11:01
  Speaker 9: to start moving forward. You have to start taking steps
• 11:05
  Speaker 9: in order to improve your vision, improve your perspective, change
• 11:08
  Speaker 9: your perspective, make some kind of progress. And worst case scenario,
• 11:12
  Speaker 9: you figure out that you walked the wrong direction. Okay,
• 11:15
  Speaker 9: now you can go walk in the other direction. And
• 11:16
  Speaker 9: that's going to be fine. But standing there lost and
• 11:20
  Speaker 9: not doing anything is just waiting to die, waiting to
• 11:23
  Speaker 9: starve to death. Don't let that happen. I had to
• 11:28
  Speaker 9: condition people to take action, even in the SEAL teams.
• 11:31
  Speaker 9: Even a young SEAL leader who you would think would
• 11:35
  Speaker 9: be by nature aggressive and an action taker, you put
• 11:39
  Speaker 9: them in a pressure situation where there's not a ton
• 11:41
  Speaker 9: of information and they need to make a decision, They
• 11:43
  Speaker 9: don't want to act either. So one of the things
• 11:46
  Speaker 9: that I would teach was that their default mode was
• 11:49
  Speaker 9: to be aggressive. Their default mode was to take action.
• 11:52
  Speaker 9: I would teach that. Same thing we just discussed. I
• 11:54
  Speaker 9: wouldn't say, hey, look, that means you have to take action,
• 11:57
  Speaker 9: but your default setting should be, I'm going to do something.
• 11:59
  Speaker 9: Because I'd have a young SEAL officer and there'd be
• 12:01
  Speaker 9: some training mission and there'd be a problem in a
• 12:04
  Speaker 9: building and there'd be a bunch of paintball flying around
• 12:07
  Speaker 9: in there and he wouldn't want to go solve that problem.
• 12:11
  Speaker 9: He'd back away from that problem. And I would have
• 12:13
  Speaker 9: to go like push him in the back and say,
• 12:16
  Speaker 9: you see that problem over there? You got to go
• 12:17
  Speaker 9: solve that problem. It's not going to go away. You
• 12:20
  Speaker 9: got to be aggressive. That's got to be your default
• 12:21
  Speaker 9: mode is to take action and make things happen. Because
• 12:26
  Speaker 9: most human instinct is to wait. Most human instinct is
• 12:30
  Speaker 9: to hesitate. Most human instinct is to let things go
• 12:35
  Speaker 9: longer and stick with the status quo. And that seems
• 12:39
  Speaker 9: to be.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: On the front line.
• 12:43
  Speaker 9: The lowest risk in the situation is to not do anything.
• 12:47
  Speaker 9: It usually appears to be the lowest risk. So to
• 12:52
  Speaker 9: train people to, oh, I need to take risk, some
• 12:56
  Speaker 9: level of risk, take action, because in the long run,
• 13:01
  Speaker 9: I say seven out of 10. Seven out of 10 times,
• 13:04
  Speaker 9: action is better than inaction.
• 13:08
  Speaker 15: If someone was on the extreme end of that, disease
• 13:12
  Speaker 15: of excuse and blame and all of those things, is
• 13:15
  Speaker 15: there anything that you could do or you would advise
• 13:17
  Speaker 15: them to do to kind of walk back from there,
• 13:20
  Speaker 15: to get over the other side? Because I think we
• 13:21
  Speaker 15: can all think of people in our lives and maybe
• 13:23
  Speaker 15: even ourselves at times who have gotten into a chronic
• 13:26
  Speaker 15: pattern of using excuses and blame as a form of self-defense.
• 13:32
  Speaker 9: Well, unfortunately, what happens a lot, and you may or
• 13:36
  Speaker 9: may not have seen this, but I would assume you've
• 13:37
  Speaker 9: seen this at some point in your life, people, and
• 13:41
  Speaker 9: this is a term, there's a term, it's rock bottom, right?
• 13:44
  Speaker 9: This is a term that we hear for someone that's addicted,
• 13:47
  Speaker 9: someone that's an alcoholic, someone that's physically let themselves go,
• 13:52
  Speaker 9: someone that's put themselves into a situation with their finances
• 13:56
  Speaker 9: or their work or whatever, where they reach rock bottom.
• 13:59
  Speaker 9: But when the excuses all go away and people can
• 14:03
  Speaker 9: actually confront the fact that this is all because of
• 14:06
  Speaker 9: me and this is, it hurts. but is also unbelievably
• 14:13
  Speaker 9: empowering because if these problems are because of me, then
• 14:18
  Speaker 9: I'm capable of fixing these problems. So even though extreme
• 14:25
  Speaker 9: ownership hurts and is painful, it's also liberating because now
• 14:30
  Speaker 9: you have control over your fate and over your destiny,
• 14:33
  Speaker 9: and that is a glorious thing.
• 14:38
  Speaker 15: Our excuse is the opposite. Excuses and blame, is that
• 14:42
  Speaker 15: the opposite of extreme ownership? That is the opposite of
• 14:44
  Speaker 15: extreme ownership. Extreme ownership is this went wrong, this.
• 14:50
  Speaker 9: Failed, didn't accomplish this, and it's not the fault of
• 14:54
  Speaker 9: my boss, it's not the fault of my girlfriend, it's
• 14:56
  Speaker 9: not the fault of my parents, it's not the fault
• 14:58
  Speaker 9: of the weather, it's my fault. And I'm going to
• 15:01
  Speaker 9: take ownership of it and I'm going to fix it.
• 15:03
  Speaker 9: That's what extreme ownership is. And this is a very
• 15:07
  Speaker 9: difficult thing to do because it hurts. Because when you
• 15:11
  Speaker 9: look around at your life, and you look around at
• 15:14
  Speaker 9: your job, and your financial situation, and your relationship, and
• 15:19
  Speaker 9: your physical health, and when you look at all those things,
• 15:22
  Speaker 9: and all the problems that you may have with those things,
• 15:25
  Speaker 9: and you say, the reason I have all those problems
• 15:29
  Speaker 9: is because of me, that can hurt. That can sting.
• 15:34
  Speaker 9: And a lot of times, our ego rejects that and
• 15:39
  Speaker 9: makes excuses and lies. And then we don't have to
• 15:42
  Speaker 9: change anything. And then nothing changes. What you learn to
• 15:48
  Speaker 9: do is, okay, I'm going to go forward. There's no,
• 15:52
  Speaker 9: I can't get out of this. I'm going to go forward.
• 15:54
  Speaker 9: I'm not going to quit. So I'm going to go forward,
• 15:55
  Speaker 9: bring it on. If I'm in the woods, which is
• 15:59
  Speaker 9: where you are right now, you're in the woods and
• 16:02
  Speaker 9: you don't know where to go because the wife's not
• 16:04
  Speaker 9: there anymore. The job's not there anymore. You don't know
• 16:08
  Speaker 9: where to go right now. So if you're in the
• 16:10
  Speaker 9: woods and you don't know where to go, start walking.
• 16:16
  Speaker 9: What you learn to do is, okay, I'm going to
• 16:19
  Speaker 9: go forward. There's no, I can't get out of this.
• 16:22
  Speaker 9: I'm going to go forward. I'm not going to quit.
• 16:23
  Speaker 9: So I'm going to go forward, bring it on. And
• 16:25
  Speaker 9: I think if there's anything that you learn, it's to
• 16:30
  Speaker 9: keep pushing through things that suck.
• 16:34
  Speaker 15: Can you teach that? Let's go.
• 16:37
  Speaker 9: We're going to come back in the water.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Let's go.
• 16:39
  Speaker 9: I think that's one of the few things that you
• 16:43
  Speaker 9: learn in basic SEAL training is to shrug your shoulders
• 16:47
  Speaker 9: and go forward. This is just something that's gonna suck
• 16:52
  Speaker 9: and you're gonna have to push through it.
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: The reason people change is because of pain. The reason
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: we grow is because we get uncomfortable and we embrace
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: being uncomfortable. But being honest with the pain that we
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: feel is usually the prime mover for people to do
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: the work that is necessary to push to the edge.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Embrace the pain that you're going to feel when you're
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: trying to do something great.
• 17:21
  Speaker 17: You have to understand, you have to know that with
• 17:25
  Speaker 17: greatness comes pain.
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: Stop listening to the opinions of others around us that
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: are saying, oh, you're never going to make it.
• 17:32
  Speaker 18: It's impossible.
• 17:34
  Speaker 8: You can't do it.
• 17:35
  Speaker 16: You will never make it.
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: Acknowledging our suffering, being in touch with the pain, that's
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: enough to say, I can't do this. I don't want
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: to do this anymore. Like, this is not the person
• 17:47
  Speaker 6: I want to become.
• 17:49
  Speaker 10: Like, I used to sit there and look at my
• 17:51
  Speaker 10: class and my teachers and I'm like, I'm going to
• 17:53
  Speaker 10: show you. I'm going to show all of you. You
• 17:55
  Speaker 10: think I suck? I'm going to be the biggest, best
• 17:59
  Speaker 10: person on earth.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: You need to immerse yourself in school. You need to
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: go in deep. All you're doing every single day is studying.
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: You're going to get distracted from your goals. And all
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: these things, arrows are going to come at you all
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: the time. Whatever your goal is, you have to get there.
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: Even though people are going to say you can't do it.
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: Even though people are going to throw different opportunities. You know,
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: I'm sure your friends went out a million times to
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: happy hour when you just stayed late.
• 18:30
  Speaker 19: Find out what it is you want and go after
• 18:33
  Speaker 19: it as if your life depends on it.
• 18:36
  Speaker 9: Why?
• 18:37
  Speaker 8: Because it does. Thoughts become things. Whatever you put out into.
• 18:42
  Speaker 16: The universe, you are going to get back.
• 18:46
  Speaker 13: You have an opportunity to still be achieving. So get
• 18:51
  Speaker 13: up and get on it. Because the weak will struggle.
• 18:55
  Speaker 13: Success is reserved for those that.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Are the strongest. But you still got time to pass
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: that class. You still got time to finish strong, all right?
• 19:12
  Speaker 8: Repeat after me, education. Education.
• 19:15
  Speaker 9: Equals opportunity.
• 19:16
  Speaker 20: Equals opportunity.
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: One more time, education.
• 19:18
  Speaker 18: Education.
• 19:19
  Speaker 9: Equals opportunity.
• 19:20
  Speaker 21: Equals opportunity.
• 19:22
  Speaker 22: School is like a privilege. Learning is a privilege. Getting
• 19:25
  Speaker 22: your education is a privilege. Not a lot of people
• 19:29
  Speaker 22: have that, surprisingly. I know the people in your city
• 19:34
  Speaker 22: and in your school all have that, and it may
• 19:36
  Speaker 22: seem normal to you at times, but it's not. People
• 19:39
  Speaker 22: wish to have education.
• 19:41
  Speaker 12: People wish they.
• 19:41
  Speaker 22: Can go to school and learn and grow as an individual.
• 19:49
  Speaker 22: You know, it's not about just one math test that
• 19:53
  Speaker 22: you have tomorrow. It's not about one grade. It's that
• 19:56
  Speaker 22: if you do good on this one test, you're gonna
• 20:00
  Speaker 22: do good on another test, and then another test, and
• 20:03
  Speaker 22: you're gonna get an A, and that's gonna raise your GPA,
• 20:06
  Speaker 22: and that's gonna, your GPA is what's gonna decide what
• 20:10
  Speaker 22: college you're gonna get into, and then what your job
• 20:13
  Speaker 22: will be. Like, it all adds up. You know, always,
• 20:17
  Speaker 22: always try your best. Don't look at it as just
• 20:25
  Speaker 22: a test. Don't look at it as just a class,
• 20:28
  Speaker 22: a grade. Because anything that you want in life, you're
• 20:31
  Speaker 22: going to have to work for. Nothing is going to
• 20:33
  Speaker 22: be given to you.
• 20:36
  Speaker 12: See, most people only ever focus on problems. It's the
• 20:40
  Speaker 12: world we live in today. We live in a world
• 20:42
  Speaker 12: of media-fueled problems.
• 20:46
  Speaker 23: You can't turn on the news without seeing problems, disasters,
• 20:50
  Speaker 23: all the.
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: Bad in this world.
• 20:51
  Speaker 12: Now, most people focus on their problems and make them
• 20:56
  Speaker 12: bigger than what they actually are.
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: This is where people are going wrong.
• 21:03
  Speaker 23: If something bad happens and you make that problem even
• 21:06
  Speaker 23: bigger and tell yourselves things like, this is always happening
• 21:10
  Speaker 23: to me. This is never going to get better. This
• 21:13
  Speaker 23: is a big problem. Train your mind.
• 21:19
  Speaker 12: Train your mind not to focus on the problem and
• 21:21
  Speaker 12: make it bigger, but focus on the solution to solve it.
• 21:25
  Speaker 12: Stay positive. Stay focused and most importantly, stay strong.
• 21:31
  Speaker 22: You know, I used to actually do my homework on
• 21:33
  Speaker 22: a Friday, so I would enjoy the weekend. Mostly people
• 21:36
  Speaker 22: do it on Sundays when they have to do it,
• 21:39
  Speaker 22: but I just, I like to just get over with
• 21:41
  Speaker 22: it so much better knowing you're done and you have
• 21:43
  Speaker 22: free time and you can do whatever you want, but
• 21:46
  Speaker 22: have that on your mind while having the free time.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 21:49
  Speaker 22: It's just so much better to get it done. You'll
• 21:51
  Speaker 22: feel so good. Start off good. Do your homework. Do
• 21:55
  Speaker 22: the best you can do on every single test.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: I know I can.
• 21:59
  Speaker 8: I know I can. Be what I want to be.
• 22:02
  Speaker 8: Be what I want to be.
• 22:04
  Speaker 7: If I work hard at it.
• 22:06
  Speaker 8: If I work hard at it. I'll be where I
• 22:08
  Speaker 8: want to be. I'll be where I want to be.
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: I know I can. I know I can. Be what
• 22:16
  Speaker 8: I want to be.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Be what I want to be.
• 22:18
  Speaker 8: If I work hard at it. I'll be where I
• 22:22
  Speaker 8: want to be. I'll be where I want to.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Be.
• 22:29
  Speaker 22: Hard work pays off. You know, the classes I used
• 22:31
  Speaker 22: to slack on and I didn't do that great in,
• 22:34
  Speaker 22: it showed. And the classes I worked really hard on
• 22:38
  Speaker 22: and I tried my best, it showed. You know, it
• 22:41
  Speaker 22: made me realize that hard work really, really does pay
• 22:45
  Speaker 22: off in the end. Your results might not show and
• 22:48
  Speaker 22: you might feel like you're failing. You might feel like
• 22:51
  Speaker 22: you're not getting anywhere and that you won't do good.
• 22:54
  Speaker 22: But just as long as you try your best, just
• 22:57
  Speaker 22: as long as you give it 100%, start off strong
• 23:03
  Speaker 22: and finish even stronger.
• 23:06
  Speaker 10: You got this, my friend.
• 23:09
  Speaker 20: If I could go back and give my younger self
• 23:12
  Speaker 20: just one piece of advice what would it be? Never
• 23:16
  Speaker 20: give up. If I could give anyone just one piece
• 23:20
  Speaker 20: of advice what would it be?
• 23:22
  Speaker 9: Never give up.
• 23:23
  Speaker 20: It's so sad to see so many people give up
• 23:26
  Speaker 20: on the life they want to live just because of
• 23:29
  Speaker 20: the need to fit in.
• 23:31
  Speaker 9: Fit in with parents, fit in with friends, fit in
• 23:34
  Speaker 9: with society.
• 23:35
  Speaker 20: Too afraid to dream of how great life can be
• 23:39
  Speaker 20: because life and others have offered plenty of examples of
• 23:42
  Speaker 20: what can go wrong. Plenty of examples of how hard
• 23:46
  Speaker 20: life is. How much of a struggle life is. Well,
• 23:50
  Speaker 20: I don't buy that. I believe everyone is capable of
• 23:54
  Speaker 20: creating the life they want. I refuse to believe we
• 23:59
  Speaker 20: are stuck. I refuse to believe in limitation.
• 24:06
  Speaker 8: We are capable of anything.
• 24:09
  Speaker 10: If.
• 24:10
  Speaker 24: Only if we believe that. Because with belief comes action.
• 24:16
  Speaker 24: With belief comes possibilities. With belief, we are open to opportunities.
• 24:23
  Speaker 24: When we refuse to give up on our dream.
• 24:26
  Speaker 20: When we seek to find examples of those who have
• 24:29
  Speaker 20: achieved the life they want. When we want to learn
• 24:32
  Speaker 20: how we can make steps forward every day. When we
• 24:36
  Speaker 20: are open to learn more. When we are willing to
• 24:40
  Speaker 20: work for it. When we trust.
• 24:42
  Speaker 9: Our intuition and follow our hearts.
• 24:46
  Speaker 20: When we have the courage to trust the universe and
• 24:50
  Speaker 20: reach for the sky, well, then anything is possible.
• 24:56
  Speaker 8: If you believe it, you can achieve it.
• 24:59
  Speaker 7: If you can dream it, there's no doubt you can
• 25:03
  Speaker 7: be it.
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: Believe in yourself.
• 25:06
  Speaker 24: Shakespeare said, our doubts are traitors and make us lose
• 25:12
  Speaker 24: the good we oft might win.
• 25:14
  Speaker 8: By fearing to attempt.
• 25:18
  Speaker 24: See, most people fear failure so much they don't even try. Therefore,
• 25:24
  Speaker 24: they fail by default. Achieving anything of significance in life
• 25:29
  Speaker 24: will never be easy. But the only way you can
• 25:33
  Speaker 24: guarantee not achieving anything is if you never try.
• 25:37
  Speaker 9: In the first place.
• 25:41
  Speaker 20: You do not know what is going to happen in
• 25:43
  Speaker 20: the future. Anything can happen if you believe in yourself
• 25:48
  Speaker 20: and are willing to learn how to make it happen.
• 25:51
  Speaker 20: It might not happen right away. It might take you
• 25:54
  Speaker 20: longer than expected. But if you are committed and maintain
• 25:58
  Speaker 20: belief that in the end you will achieve your desired outcome,
• 26:02
  Speaker 20: you will achieve your desired outcome.
• 26:06
  Speaker 8: Never give up. Never, ever give up.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Sun don't stop for nobody, man. That sun is going
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: to be up in the morning regardless of how I feel.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: The sun is going to shine in the morning and
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: at nighttime the moon is going to be there. And
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: you're going to look up and these days are going
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: to keep going by. So do you let the days
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: go by and look up and you don't waste a
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: year doing what?
• 26:36
  Speaker 7: I want you to live the life you were meant
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: to live. Not the life that was given to you.
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: Because I made up in my mind that's the life
• 26:43
  Speaker 7: y'all gave me.
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: I'm not taking that no more.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: A lot of life is uncomfortable.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: A lot of this experience is not easy.
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: I don't care who you are.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: It's not easy waking up first thing in the morning.
• 26:54
  Speaker 18: You don't always want to get up out of bed.
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: You're signing up to have some moments where it's really
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: uncomfortable and painful. What are we going to forgive right now?
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: And what are we going to say?
• 27:05
  Speaker 18: The buck stops here.
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: No more.
• 27:07
  Speaker 16: I'm not putting up with it.
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: Because I'm tired of playing crap with yourself. I'm going
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: to cut the man.
• 27:14
  Speaker 25: Tomorrow morning, when the alarm goes off, you're going to
• 27:16
  Speaker 25: launch yourself out of bed like a rocket ship. You're
• 27:21
  Speaker 25: going to move so fast, you're not going to be
• 27:23
  Speaker 25: in that bed when that anxiety hits.
• 27:26
  Speaker 14: If I'm going to seek success, I've got to define
• 27:28
  Speaker 14: what sacrifices I require in order to step into it.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: And the gateway for all of us to blow up.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: You can't start where I am now. You've got to
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: start where I started.
• 27:40
  Speaker 7: I know it's painful every time you got to make
• 27:43
  Speaker 7: a sacrifice, but I'm telling you the pain of success
• 27:47
  Speaker 7: is better than the pain of failure. And now is
• 27:49
  Speaker 7: the time for you to make a decision on what
• 27:52
  Speaker 7: pain you want.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: I'm not content because I know where I came from
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: and I don't ever want to go back. That means
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: I don't want to go back to living like I
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: once was.
• 28:08
  Speaker 26: The separation of talent and skill is one of the
• 28:11
  Speaker 26: greatest misunderstood concepts.
• 28:14
  Speaker 8: For people who are trying to excel, who have dreams
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: and want to do things. Talent you have naturally.
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: Skill is only developed by hours and hours and hours
• 28:23
  Speaker 7: of beating on your craft.
• 28:25
  Speaker 11: Decide that you're going to push yourself.
• 28:28
  Speaker 8: There's greatness in you.
• 28:30
  Speaker 11: And you've got to learn how to tune out the
• 28:32
  Speaker 11: critics outside and the critic inside. And since I'm going
• 28:36
  Speaker 11: to do this, I'm going to harness my will and
• 28:39
  Speaker 11: I'm not going to let anything stop me.
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm asking you to do.
• 28:43
  Speaker 8: What fuels you?
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: The reason why you're so lazy is not because you
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: don't have the ability. You're so lazy because your dream's
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: so small. Failure is painful. Failure is painful.
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: I know it's painful to wake up early in the
• 28:54
  Speaker 7: morning when you really want to sleep. I know it's
• 28:56
  Speaker 7: painful when you got to study when everybody else is
• 28:59
  Speaker 7: outside playing.
• 29:00
  Speaker 9: In what world do we not work every day?
• 29:03
  Speaker 10: Working hard is the cost of entry of winning.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: 90% is worth it. But the last 10%, that's fight.
• 29:10
  Speaker 7: Can we make that happen? Can we make that happen?
• 29:13
  Speaker 7: Can we make that happen? I'm talking about beast mode.
• 29:19
  Speaker 26: Dude, you've been a repeat offender.
• 29:21
  Speaker 8: It hadn't been paying you back.
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: You've been regretting that choice every time you make it.
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: You keep freaking making it.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: Cut, man.
• 29:27
  Speaker 8: Evolve.
• 29:28
  Speaker 13: Turn the page.
• 29:30
  Speaker 18: No more.
• 29:32
  Speaker 25: I profoundly believe that you are one decision away from
• 29:36
  Speaker 25: a different life. We make the mistake of believing that
• 29:45
  Speaker 25: because our problems are big or because our dreams are
• 29:49
  Speaker 25: so big, that somehow the solution to achieving those dreams
• 29:54
  Speaker 25: or to solving those problems must be enormous too. When
• 29:58
  Speaker 25: in truth, it's the opposite.
• 30:01
  Speaker 21: Here's what people do, they're unhappy, you're not where you're at,
• 30:04
  Speaker 21: so you put your time into dumb shit like 2K
• 30:07
  Speaker 21: and Netflix and Fortnite because you're escaping your real life.
• 30:11
  Speaker 21: Your time's not worth anything when you're unhappy. So put
• 30:14
  Speaker 21: it into making yourself happy, which is the work to
• 30:16
  Speaker 21: get you to where you want.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: Most of us have been conditioned not to take a risk.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: People ask me all the time, what does it take
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: to be happy? And I always tell them it's really simple.
• 30:25
  Speaker 8: One word, progress.
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Progress equals happiness. If you keep growing, you're going to
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: feel alive. And if you keep growing, you're going to
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: have more to give. And when you're growing and giving
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: is when life is magnificent. It doesn't matter how many statues,
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: Oscars they give you or Emmys or how much money
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: you have in the bank. Everybody's focusing on the outside world.
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: And hell, there's a lot of things in the outside
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: world you'll never be able to control. You can influence,
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: but you can't control it. This, your mind, your emotions,
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: your body, you have 100% control over what you do
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: with these things and that's where the.
• 31:00
  Speaker 8: Game is won. You win the inner game, then you win.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: The outer game. But a lot of people spent their
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: life trying to win the outer game, they won and
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: they're miserable.
• 31:09
  Speaker 7: I know you've been waiting for everything to line up perfectly.
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: And you've been waiting for the right teachers. You've been
• 31:15
  Speaker 7: waiting for the right school. You've been waiting for the
• 31:18
  Speaker 7: right time.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.
• 31:20
  Speaker 7: No, no, you're not waiting for the perfect time. You're
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: making it the perfect time. Now is the time for
• 31:26
  Speaker 7: you to say, I'm ready. I'm ready to take the
• 31:30
  Speaker 7: next step. What you going to do now? Now that
• 31:33
  Speaker 7: you've heard all the information, I want you to take
• 31:35
  Speaker 7: that now and I want you to make that some fuel. Yeah.
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: Now it's time for you to get fueled up.
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: I want you to get sick and tired of being
• 31:45
  Speaker 7: sick and tired. I want you to get sick and
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: tired of being average. I want you to get so mad.
• 31:51
  Speaker 7: I need you to get fueled up. I need you
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: to get fired up.
• 31:56
  Speaker 17: Like I want you to understand, like I don't know
• 32:02
  Speaker 17: your story.
• 32:03
  Speaker 8: I don't know the.
• 32:05
  Speaker 17: Depths of what some of you have had to deal with.
• 32:08
  Speaker 9: But I'm here to tell you, man, you can do
• 32:10
  Speaker 9: more things.
• 32:12
  Speaker 10: And as long as there's breath in your lungs, there's
• 32:15
  Speaker 10: hope in your heart too.
• 32:17
  Speaker 17: And as long as you continue to understand that no
• 32:21
  Speaker 17: feeling is final.
• 32:23
  Speaker 8: Today, life may suck.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: For some of you.
• 32:26
  Speaker 17: Today, life may be amazing for some of you. But
• 32:28
  Speaker 17: what I do know are there are mountains and there
• 32:31
  Speaker 17: are valleys. And to realize I can only control what
• 32:35
  Speaker 17: I can control. I can control how I treat people.
• 32:38
  Speaker 17: I can control the things that I do with my
• 32:40
  Speaker 17: energy and my time.
• 32:43
  Speaker 8: And I'm going to continue to refuse to believe.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: That I can't.
• 32:48
  Speaker 9: What's your book look like? What does your fucking book
• 32:51
  Speaker 9: look like?
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: Like your life is a book. You got a bunch
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: of chapters in your book, but when they close that book,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: how good was your book? What was the ending to
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: your book? If the ending to my book can be
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: so amazing because of all that was done, not the money.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: All that was accomplished, the first to do, the man
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: that did this, he caused the merger between this. Because
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: of his commitment and growth to this, the communities were
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: then given this. All of the things that can be
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: associated with you and your existence become.
• 33:26
  Speaker 9: A part of the chapters in your book. So my
• 33:29
  Speaker 9: drive is about my book.
• 33:32
  Speaker 7: I never said when you want to succeed as bad
• 33:35
  Speaker 7: as you want to eat, because you can go 21 days,
• 33:37
  Speaker 7: maybe 30, but without eating.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: I never said when you want to succeed as.
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: Bad as you want water, because you can go about
• 33:47
  Speaker 7: three days or so without it. I said when you
• 33:51
  Speaker 7: want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe,
• 33:57
  Speaker 7: then you'll be successful. And so one of the things
• 34:00
  Speaker 7: I want to do for you as an educator today,
• 34:03
  Speaker 7: you don't necessarily need better skills per se.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: That's not what you need. But what some of you need.
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: Is to go from 70% to 120%.
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: Some of you need to go from 80% to 120%.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: The reason why I'm giving 120 is because your dad
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: is not in your life.
• 34:22
  Speaker 7: The reason why I'm giving 120 is because your father's
• 34:25
  Speaker 7: in prison. The reason why I'm giving 120 is because
• 34:27
  Speaker 7: your mom is working two jobs. The reason why I'm
• 34:30
  Speaker 7: giving 120 is because your grandma's raising you. The reason
• 34:32
  Speaker 7: why I'm giving 120 is because you live in a
• 34:34
  Speaker 7: community where education is not valued. So I don't care
• 34:38
  Speaker 7: what you do academically, when you leave here, you can't
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: go and get credit for getting A's. That in your neighborhood,
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: in your community, nobody affirms you for reading at a
• 34:49
  Speaker 7: certain level. Nobody affirms you for doing well on your
• 34:52
  Speaker 7: ACT or your SAT. Where you come from, education is
• 34:56
  Speaker 7: not affirmed. So even if you are a scholar, you have.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: To keep it to yourself. You have to suppress it.
• 35:04
  Speaker 7: So the reason why I give 120 is because your
• 35:07
  Speaker 7: daddy's not there to give 80.
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: And your mama's too tired to give 100.
• 35:11
  Speaker 7: And your grandma is washed out, so she's giving 50.
• 35:16
  Speaker 7: And y'all do that little stuff about you gonna eat,
• 35:18
  Speaker 7: but y'all ain't got no doggone motor.
• 35:19
  Speaker 8: You get tired quick. You practice for.
• 35:22
  Speaker 7: One or two days, you go out. You do a
• 35:25
  Speaker 7: couple hours, you tired. But yet you compete against people
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: right now, that's their lifestyle. And you think they about
• 35:31
  Speaker 7: to let you take their lifestyle? I don't want to
• 35:35
  Speaker 7: do it as much as I want to eat. I
• 35:36
  Speaker 7: don't want to do it as much as I need
• 35:38
  Speaker 7: to drink. I want to be the best in the
• 35:40
  Speaker 7: world as bad as I want to breathe. I want
• 35:43
  Speaker 7: to be the Michael Jordan of education. I want to
• 35:46
  Speaker 7: be the LeBron James of education. And I ask you
• 35:49
  Speaker 7: the question, I ask you the question today, are you
• 35:52
  Speaker 7: giving 120? I never said when you want to succeed
• 35:58
  Speaker 7: as bad as you want to eat. I never said
• 36:02
  Speaker 7: when you want to succeed as bad as you want water.
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: I said when you want to succeed as bad as
• 36:11
  Speaker 7: you want to breathe, then you'll be successful. Like I
• 36:24
  Speaker 7: told my professor, what happens if I fail? He said,
• 36:27
  Speaker 7: what happens if you pass? I said, but what happened
• 36:30
  Speaker 7: if I don't get it? What happened if I put
• 36:32
  Speaker 7: in all these years and it don't work out? He said,
• 36:34
  Speaker 7: but what happens if you put in all these years
• 36:36
  Speaker 7: and you get it? You got skill and you got will.
• 36:49
  Speaker 7: You got skill and you got will. Two total different things.
• 36:54
  Speaker 7: You were born with certain things, but to get to
• 36:56
  Speaker 7: the next level and not just get to the next level,
• 36:58
  Speaker 7: to stay at the next level, you got to have will.
• 37:01
  Speaker 8: When you get to that next level.
• 37:03
  Speaker 7: So when you play, you have to compete. When you
• 37:09
  Speaker 7: have an opportunity, why would you give 80% when you
• 37:12
  Speaker 7: have opportunity? Somebody answer that for me.
• 37:14
  Speaker 8: Y'all talk. Why would you give 80%, 70%?
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: Why wouldn't you always give 120%?
• 37:21
  Speaker 8: For real, you might get it, but right now what? Oh,
• 37:24
  Speaker 8: I can't hear y'all.
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: You may get it, but right now what?
• 37:29
  Speaker 8: You don't have it.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: You have nothing to fear.
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: Guys, you already overcame all kind of stuff. Because a
• 37:42
  Speaker 7: lot of you don't see that what's going to take
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: you to that next level that's going to separate you
• 37:46
  Speaker 7: from everybody else because you got to have something that
• 37:47
  Speaker 7: separates you. What's going to separate you from everybody else?
• 37:53
  Speaker 8: Right?
• 37:53
  Speaker 7: I don't know what that is for you. But just
• 37:55
  Speaker 7: talk about it. When you hear my videos, one of
• 37:58
  Speaker 7: the things you notice that separates me from everybody else,
• 38:00
  Speaker 7: I don't do what in any of my videos?
• 38:02
  Speaker 8: I don't curse.
• 38:03
  Speaker 7: You've never seen me cuss before. You've never seen me
• 38:06
  Speaker 7: drink before. You've never seen me smoke. I'm not against
• 38:09
  Speaker 7: drinking and smoking, but my brand is I don't drink,
• 38:12
  Speaker 7: I don't smoke. What are you going to do to
• 38:13
  Speaker 7: separate yourself? Like I do things to separate myself from
• 38:17
  Speaker 7: everybody else. The passion that I have when I speak,
• 38:19
  Speaker 7: the grind that I have when I.
• 38:21
  Speaker 8: Do what I do.
• 38:22
  Speaker 7: What are you going to do to separate yourself? People
• 38:24
  Speaker 7: you're not even going to be hanging out with. All
• 38:28
  Speaker 7: I want to hear is E. They grinding like they
• 38:29
  Speaker 7: never grind before. Johnny, I want to hear they out
• 38:32
  Speaker 7: there handling that rock like E. They monsters, E. They
• 38:35
  Speaker 7: like freaks out here, E. Like, they going hard, E.
• 38:38
  Speaker 7: That's all I want. Well, some more stuff is keeping
• 38:41
  Speaker 7: you from doing what you're supposed to do.
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 38:48
  Speaker 8: You have an opportunity of a lifetime.
• 38:52
  Speaker 7: And what I'm trying to get you to understand is
• 38:55
  Speaker 7: When you understand you have an opportunity, you play a
• 39:00
  Speaker 7: little different. I wasn't successful because of who I was.
• 39:11
  Speaker 7: Like in a lot of y'all for real, here's what
• 39:13
  Speaker 7: you got to stop doing. You hold people to the
• 39:16
  Speaker 7: fire when they don't do what they're supposed to do,
• 39:18
  Speaker 7: but you give yourself a pass.
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: Like, and you gotta stop doing that.
• 39:22
  Speaker 7: Like, I see in this generation, people will let their
• 39:25
  Speaker 7: kids get away with stuff that I know you wouldn't
• 39:27
  Speaker 7: let nobody else's kid get away with.
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: But sometimes when you're so close to something, you don't
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: treat it.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: Real.
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: Like, you give it a pass because it's your baby.
• 39:37
  Speaker 7: But if somebody else was to get on your couch
• 39:39
  Speaker 7: and do that, you'd have a fit.
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: So what I had to start doing was saying, you gotta.
• 39:43
  Speaker 7: Stop holding other people to the fire, you gotta hold
• 39:46
  Speaker 7: yourself to the fire. And I realized that without a schedule,
• 39:50
  Speaker 7: I was the one that was messing up my life.
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: And I realized I needed a schedule.
• 39:54
  Speaker 7: Because I wasn't the brand to get me where I
• 39:59
  Speaker 7: wanted to go, if that makes sense. Like that version
• 40:01
  Speaker 7: of Eric Thomas would never make me a 1%. I
• 40:04
  Speaker 7: realized that. So when I sat down with Warren Buffett,
• 40:06
  Speaker 7: three things that blew my mind. I never really realized
• 40:10
  Speaker 7: where his money came from. So the first thing I
• 40:12
  Speaker 7: did was I was like, yo, his money comes from investments. Well,
• 40:15
  Speaker 7: what happened was when he was 12 years old, His
• 40:18
  Speaker 7: father gave him his first like grand and let him
• 40:20
  Speaker 7: make an investment. So I realized he's not getting up
• 40:24
  Speaker 7: early in the morning just to get up in the morning.
• 40:25
  Speaker 7: What he says he does is he reads. He doesn't
• 40:29
  Speaker 7: just read books. That's not what he does. He reads
• 40:32
  Speaker 7: financial reports. So this dude was telling me he read
• 40:35
  Speaker 7: a financial report of General Motors in like 1964. And
• 40:38
  Speaker 7: I'm thinking like, why would you be reading?
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: It's 2014.
• 40:43
  Speaker 7: He was reading the document, the financial.
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: Listen to me. He's a financial genius. What was he reading? Finances.
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: For real, y'all be coming up to me like, yo E,
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: what you reading?
• 40:54
  Speaker 8: Why?
• 40:55
  Speaker 7: You trying to be a motivational speaker? You trying to
• 40:57
  Speaker 7: be the next Martin Luther King? You trying to be
• 41:00
  Speaker 7: the next Mother Teresa? Why are you trying to read
• 41:02
  Speaker 7: what I'm reading?
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: Like what are you trying, like you trying.
• 41:04
  Speaker 7: To impress somebody? Why are you reading what I'm trying
• 41:07
  Speaker 7: to read if you're not trying to be me? He
• 41:09
  Speaker 7: was not reading Mother Teresa. He wasn't reading about leaders.
• 41:13
  Speaker 7: He was reading a financial report from.
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: 1964 General Motors.
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 41:19
  Speaker 7: Because General Motors had one of their successful financial years
• 41:22
  Speaker 7: in 1964. And so he was looking for the clues
• 41:26
  Speaker 7: of what were they doing specifically in 1964 that can
• 41:30
  Speaker 7: be duplicated in 2014.
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: That's what he was looking for.
• 41:33
  Speaker 7: So a lot of you getting up early because ET
• 41:35
  Speaker 7: get up early, but you getting up early for no reason.
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: You just up early.
• 41:40
  Speaker 7: So be careful that your routine is pointing to where
• 41:44
  Speaker 7: you're trying to get to and you're not wasting time.
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: So I'm looking at Warren Buffett. He says he reads
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: six hours a day.
• 41:52
  Speaker 7: He reads financial documents six hours a day.
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: That's the first thing he does. Seven days a week,
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: six hours. But watch this. You go, ooh.
• 42:04
  Speaker 7: When you read something for six hours times seven, That's
• 42:09
  Speaker 7: 42 hours, right?
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: That's 42 hours a week, right?
• 42:14
  Speaker 7: I don't know how many hours that is a year,
• 42:16
  Speaker 7: but guess why he makes the best financial decision? Because
• 42:20
  Speaker 7: all he's doing is financial stuff.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: He's putting in 10,000, 20,000, 40,000, 50,000 hours.
• 42:30
  Speaker 7: If you're gifted in three areas, then that means you're
• 42:32
  Speaker 7: going to have to get 30,000 hours just to be
• 42:34
  Speaker 7: like basically a master. But what if you did one
• 42:37
  Speaker 7: thing and got 30 hours of information in just that
• 42:41
  Speaker 7: one area? You guys got 10,000 in three different areas.
• 42:46
  Speaker 7: So while you got 10,000, I got 40, 50,000 in
• 42:47
  Speaker 7: one area.
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: What?
• 42:47
  Speaker 8: Speaking.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: And guess what the disc is? The disc is still
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: going further into personalities. It's still the same exact thing.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: So I'm putting more hours on top.
• 42:59
  Speaker 7: So the routine is important because eventually it's going to
• 43:02
  Speaker 7: make you a beast in one particular area.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: That's why you need a routine because you can't trust
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: yourself not to get off track.
• 43:09
  Speaker 7: That routine is going to keep you on track and
• 43:12
  Speaker 7: make you a 1%.
• 43:14
  Speaker 27: Everybody's feeling the same thing. There's no hope. It's all
• 43:18
  Speaker 27: outside of my control. There's nothing I can do. These
• 43:23
  Speaker 27: are the common things.
• 43:24
  Speaker 16: It's not fair.
• 43:25
  Speaker 27: These are the common things that people feel.
• 43:27
  Speaker 28: Your life is a series of lessons you've learned. Now,
• 43:30
  Speaker 28: if you just dwell on the failures, that's not healthy.
• 43:34
  Speaker 28: It's not smart and it's not empowering. What you got
• 43:37
  Speaker 28: to do is look at those failures and go, well,
• 43:39
  Speaker 28: now you know what not to do.
• 43:41
  Speaker 29: So being a victim is being completely powerless and taking
• 43:45
  Speaker 29: away all control you might have, which ultimately doesn't make
• 43:48
  Speaker 29: you feel safe, which ultimately doesn't give you happiness, which
• 43:51
  Speaker 29: ultimately doesn't give you prosperity and, you know, fill in
• 43:53
  Speaker 29: the blank. And so what does being a victim get you?
• 43:56
  Speaker 18: Nothing, absolutely nothing.
• 43:58
  Speaker 27: And first off, life is not fair. Bad things happen
• 44:02
  Speaker 27: to good people. Perfect plans suddenly in the blink of
• 44:06
  Speaker 27: an eye can be ripped apart and just be totally
• 44:09
  Speaker 27: thrown off course. And it is this so many people
• 44:12
  Speaker 27: in the victim mindset, it's a mindset. Well, that's not fair.
• 44:16
  Speaker 9: Well, you're right. It's not.
• 44:17
  Speaker 16: But guess what?
• 44:18
  Speaker 27: Sitting there and focusing all your blame and time on
• 44:22
  Speaker 27: the fact that your perfect plan or something happened or
• 44:25
  Speaker 27: your world got thrown upside down accomplishes nothing.
• 44:28
  Speaker 5: Nothing.
• 44:29
  Speaker 28: Life is filled with so many different kinds of experiences
• 44:31
  Speaker 28: that are available. And that's one of the things that
• 44:34
  Speaker 28: you sort of open up to when you relax. When
• 44:36
  Speaker 28: you relax and you don't worry about what you look like,
• 44:39
  Speaker 28: you don't worry about what you sound like, you don't
• 44:41
  Speaker 28: worry about how people feel about you. Because you've thought
• 44:44
  Speaker 28: about all these different things on your own and you've
• 44:46
  Speaker 28: kind of corrected as many things as you can correct
• 44:49
  Speaker 28: given that time period. But you feel comfortable that you're
• 44:52
  Speaker 28: on a good path. Then you sort of can entertain
• 44:56
  Speaker 28: ideas that maybe you wouldn't if you were insecure or
• 44:58
  Speaker 28: more insecure. I think you have to be insecure if
• 45:02
  Speaker 28: you're finite.
• 45:03
  Speaker 27: A victim mentality limits... your success in this life. You know,
• 45:08
  Speaker 27: you will stay wherever you are and you will achieve
• 45:12
  Speaker 27: the limit of what you believe, which if you believe
• 45:15
  Speaker 27: you're never going to.
• 45:15
  Speaker 16: Get out of the neighborhood you grew up in, you're right,
• 45:18
  Speaker 16: you will not.
• 45:19
  Speaker 27: And if you're waiting for somebody else to save you,
• 45:22
  Speaker 27: it most likely is.
• 45:23
  Speaker 16: Not going to happen.
• 45:24
  Speaker 27: And actually what I have come to find over time
• 45:26
  Speaker 27: is even if someone comes to save you, if you
• 45:29
  Speaker 27: don't believe in yourself, we.
• 45:31
  Speaker 16: Can't drag anybody off the X because guess what? They
• 45:33
  Speaker 16: will climb right back onto it.
• 45:35
  Speaker 27: It's only an individual that believes in themselves. Greatness lies
• 45:41
  Speaker 27: in every single individual. And the only thing stopping an
• 45:44
  Speaker 27: individual from being successful is that, you know, it doesn't
• 45:47
  Speaker 27: guarantee it.
• 45:48
  Speaker 16: I will say that.
• 45:49
  Speaker 27: But I tell you what will guarantee you never moving
• 45:52
  Speaker 27: forward is if you buy into that victim mindset and
• 45:55
  Speaker 27: just sit on that X forever waiting for some miraculous
• 45:58
  Speaker 27: thing to come along and save you. Because if you
• 46:01
  Speaker 27: don't start that process, it'll never happen.
• 46:03
  Speaker 18: When you're a victim, you're in zero control. You have
• 46:07
  Speaker 18: zero control.
• 46:08
  Speaker 29: And we can go from the simplest thing of you're
• 46:11
  Speaker 29: a victim and you want the government to take care
• 46:13
  Speaker 29: of it.
• 46:13
  Speaker 18: Well, what if the government fails? Well, now you're screwed, right?
• 46:15
  Speaker 18: So you need to be independent in that space. You're
• 46:18
  Speaker 18: being abused. You're a victim.
• 46:19
  Speaker 29: Yes, I understand that there should be sympathy inside of
• 46:23
  Speaker 29: being a victim for.
• 46:24
  Speaker 18: Something that happened, but that's the key, something that happened.
• 46:28
  Speaker 29: If it's happening, we're talking a completely different thing here,
• 46:32
  Speaker 29: and I want to make sure that's clear. If you're
• 46:34
  Speaker 29: currently being abused or you're currently being victimized, then please
• 46:39
  Speaker 29: seek help. And it's not being a victim to ask
• 46:41
  Speaker 29: for help. What's really, to me, being a victim is
• 46:43
  Speaker 29: you're past it. It's happened, and now you just keep
• 46:46
  Speaker 29: replaying that in your head over and over and over again.
• 46:49
  Speaker 16: People that follow me know I talk about the X.
• 46:52
  Speaker 27: The X is really a military term that stems from
• 46:55
  Speaker 27: a point of attack. It can be an ambush site.
• 46:59
  Speaker 27: It can be a target you're trying to take down.
• 47:01
  Speaker 27: The flip side of the coin, if you get attacked,
• 47:04
  Speaker 27: you are on the X. And the victim mindset, if
• 47:07
  Speaker 27: you say to yourself, I am not able to do
• 47:10
  Speaker 27: something because race, creed, color, gender, size, where I came from,
• 47:18
  Speaker 27: socioeconomic status, whatever it is, any of those things pin.
• 47:22
  Speaker 16: You to the X.
• 47:23
  Speaker 27: They give you an excuse to sit on the because
• 47:26
  Speaker 27: you're able to say, well, I can't do this because
• 47:29
  Speaker 27: I'm a specific color. I can't do this because of
• 47:31
  Speaker 27: my gender. I can't do this because of my gender persuasion.
• 47:34
  Speaker 16: None of that really matters. And there's millions and millions
• 47:37
  Speaker 16: of people.
• 47:38
  Speaker 27: It matters, but it doesn't matter because the reality is
• 47:41
  Speaker 27: it doesn't matter for your ability to drive forward out
• 47:44
  Speaker 27: of a bad situation.
• 47:46
  Speaker 16: And usually when.
• 47:47
  Speaker 27: There's a bad situation, there's a natural tendency to focus
• 47:50
  Speaker 27: inward on the pain and the misery and all these things.
• 47:53
  Speaker 16: But the reality, it's on you to take that first step.
• 47:58
  Speaker 27: And that became the genesis of this idea that I
• 48:02
  Speaker 27: now speak on, getting off the X. And it is
• 48:05
  Speaker 27: a victor mentality. It's a mentality that I don't care
• 48:08
  Speaker 27: what happens in my life. I'm going to continue to
• 48:11
  Speaker 27: drive forward. I'm going to figure out a way.
• 48:13
  Speaker 28: A lot of people are just running from discomfort. They're
• 48:16
  Speaker 28: running from it. They're just avoiding it.
• 48:17
  Speaker 18: It's so easy to.
• 48:19
  Speaker 28: And if you get distracted for a second, you're like, yeah,
• 48:22
  Speaker 28: let me check my phone. just start going through your
• 48:24
  Speaker 28: phone and looking at, and you're just distracting yourself from
• 48:29
  Speaker 28: the tiniest frustration of boredom. Just a little, we don't
• 48:34
  Speaker 28: get bored anymore. Or if we get bored, we get
• 48:36
  Speaker 28: bored for these tiny amounts of time. Then you get distracted.
• 48:39
  Speaker 28: So your distraction is eliminating your boredom. But the problem
• 48:43
  Speaker 28: with that is like, there's certain thoughts that only come
• 48:46
  Speaker 28: to you when you're thinking, when you're, you don't have
• 48:49
  Speaker 28: any input coming in. When we're constantly looking at our
• 48:52
  Speaker 28: phones and, The only input you're getting is input from
• 48:56
  Speaker 28: other people. And sometimes that's good. Sometimes you get good
• 48:59
  Speaker 28: stuff out of that. But it's like a diet of
• 49:02
  Speaker 28: only fruit. You need some protein. You need to get
• 49:08
  Speaker 28: some other things in your diet. And I think having
• 49:13
  Speaker 28: discomfort in your diet, like having it as a regular
• 49:16
  Speaker 28: part of your life, it minimizes the amount of other conditions.
• 49:20
  Speaker 28: kinds of that you create.
• 49:24
  Speaker 29: I didn't know any of this stuff when I was
• 49:25
  Speaker 29: a kid until I was about 16, 17. I started
• 49:28
  Speaker 29: like reading encyclopedias on the human body and mind.
• 49:31
  Speaker 18: But even then we had no clue.
• 49:33
  Speaker 29: And now like all this science is coming out about
• 49:36
  Speaker 29: energy and positive and negative and chemical hormones being stored
• 49:39
  Speaker 29: in the brain and like memories actually releasing endorphins, like
• 49:42
  Speaker 29: all this stuff's happening.
• 49:43
  Speaker 18: And it's like, wow, cool. Like the monks had something.
• 49:46
  Speaker 29: It's like we're like going and proving these very, very, very,
• 49:51
  Speaker 29: very ancient rituals and to be scientifically accurate.
• 49:56
  Speaker 18: And who knew where they got their inspiration.
• 49:58
  Speaker 29: But regardless, we're now proving that this rewriting of the story,
• 50:02
  Speaker 29: this telling yourself and believing something different literally changes the
• 50:06
  Speaker 29: chemical makeup in your body, which releases different hormones and
• 50:10
  Speaker 29: different endorphins, which then allows you to have a different,
• 50:13
  Speaker 29: complete outlook. And not just that, but We're sensual beings,
• 50:16
  Speaker 29: so we sense other things from other human beings.
• 50:19
  Speaker 18: We use the old adage of dogs.
• 50:22
  Speaker 29: If you're scared of a dog and you go up
• 50:23
  Speaker 29: to it, it's going to know you're scared, and so
• 50:25
  Speaker 29: it's going to bark at you more or whatever.
• 50:27
  Speaker 18: Human beings are the same way.
• 50:28
  Speaker 29: If you're unconfident, you don't feel sexy, and you don't
• 50:31
  Speaker 29: feel this way, that's how you're.
• 50:33
  Speaker 18: Going to come across.
• 50:34
  Speaker 29: Not because that's what you really maybe are with skin
• 50:38
  Speaker 29: and all that, but that's the chemicals that you're releasing.
• 50:42
  Speaker 29: It's okay to have had something happen to you. Like,
• 50:45
  Speaker 29: you're not a bad person because of that. And it
• 50:47
  Speaker 29: sounds crazy unless somebody's watching this who's gone through something.
• 50:50
  Speaker 29: You know the guilt you feel and the things that
• 50:53
  Speaker 29: you carry that you haven't told anyone because you're ashamed
• 50:56
  Speaker 29: or all these things.
• 50:57
  Speaker 18: That's okay. But continuing to allow it to affect you,
• 51:00
  Speaker 18: that's on you. That's not on the abuser. That's not
• 51:03
  Speaker 18: on the situation. That's on you.
• 51:05
  Speaker 29: It's a choice you have to make of, I am
• 51:07
  Speaker 29: no longer going to let this happen.
• 51:09
  Speaker 27: When you decide to get up and drive forward, you know.
• 51:14
  Speaker 16: I think action cures all is what you said. I
• 51:16
  Speaker 16: say movement is life. Movement is life. Movement creates momentum.
• 51:21
  Speaker 27: And the great thing about momentum is even if you
• 51:23
  Speaker 27: step into another ambush or into another hole, guess what?
• 51:27
  Speaker 16: Movement enables you to hopefully knock out of it.
• 51:30
  Speaker 27: And with that movement, you take action when you get
• 51:34
  Speaker 27: off that X and drive forward.
• 51:36
  Speaker 16: Number one, it creates hope.
• 51:38
  Speaker 28: You get so much more benefit out of a struggle
• 51:42
  Speaker 28: that you choose to embark in. versus a struggle that
• 51:45
  Speaker 28: life throws upon you. And I think the more you
• 51:47
  Speaker 28: choose to embark in these struggles, especially physical and mental struggles,
• 51:52
  Speaker 28: because I consider both martial arts, yoga, and actually even
• 51:56
  Speaker 28: trail running, I consider the mental struggles as much as
• 51:59
  Speaker 28: physical struggles. Because I can stop anytime I want. I'm
• 52:03
  Speaker 28: halfway up the hill, I can.
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: Go like this.
• 52:05
  Speaker 28: Someone walking the rest of the way. Call my dog over,
• 52:08
  Speaker 28: put him on the leash. I'm like, we're walking, buddy.
• 52:11
  Speaker 28: Or you could say, no, this is what I'm doing today.
• 52:14
  Speaker 28: I have a very clear plan in front of me.
• 52:18
  Speaker 28: My plan is we're doing four miles today. This is
• 52:21
  Speaker 28: where we start. This is where we end. This is
• 52:23
  Speaker 28: what we're doing.
• 52:27
  Speaker 20: If you do tomorrow what you did today, you will
• 52:30
  Speaker 20: get tomorrow what you got today.
• 52:33
  Speaker 8: So you have a choice.
• 52:35
  Speaker 9: To know which step you're going to take today.
• 52:39
  Speaker 16: You see, how you do anything is how you do everything.
• 52:45
  Speaker 16: I may be hurting.
• 52:47
  Speaker 14: I may have pains.
• 52:49
  Speaker 8: I may have been down, but I am not out.
• 52:52
  Speaker 14: I am getting out of this hole and into my destiny.
• 52:59
  Speaker 26: 99% of people are not willing to do what it
• 53:03
  Speaker 26: takes to make their dreams come true.
• 53:06
  Speaker 8: And that's just real.
• 53:07
  Speaker 26: At the center of bringing any dream into fruition is self-discipline.
• 53:13
  Speaker 26: It's getting command of your mind to be able to
• 53:17
  Speaker 26: choose actions that are in your own best interest.
• 53:21
  Speaker 3: So how do we.
• 53:21
  Speaker 9: Get better every day, every hour?
• 53:26
  Speaker 8: How do we find those resources?
• 53:28
  Speaker 26: How do we find the energy, the knowledge to do that?
• 53:32
  Speaker 13: Long days of classes, long nights of studying, projects, case studies,
• 53:39
  Speaker 13: pop quizzes, and final exams, but you keep pushing and
• 53:43
  Speaker 13: pushing because you know one day all of that hard
• 53:47
  Speaker 13: work and studying will pay off.
• 53:50
  Speaker 10: It's not about how much you sleep, it's what you
• 53:52
  Speaker 10: do while you're awake. Every minute has to count. Every
• 53:56
  Speaker 10: minute has to count if you want so much because
• 53:59
  Speaker 10: you just don't have as many of them.
• 54:00
  Speaker 23: As you think.
• 54:02
  Speaker 30: But you've got to decide that I'm going to be fearless.
• 54:05
  Speaker 16: I refuse to be denied.
• 54:07
  Speaker 9: And I'm going to go all out.
• 54:09
  Speaker 8: I'm going to be relentless.
• 54:11
  Speaker 9: I don't care how many no's I encounter.
• 54:13
  Speaker 11: You can't make a basket unless you shoot the ball.
• 54:16
  Speaker 7: You can't hit a home run unless you take a.
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: Swing at it.
• 54:19
  Speaker 11: Most people won't even take a swing.
• 54:21
  Speaker 7: You leave one thing and you go to the next thing.
• 54:24
  Speaker 7: You got the backpack mentality. You trying to pack up.
• 54:27
  Speaker 7: You trying to do new stuff when you haven't finished
• 54:29
  Speaker 7: doing what you were supposed to do before.
• 54:31
  Speaker 8: I don't know what time you got to get up.
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know what time you got to go to bed.
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: I'm not 100% sure. But what I'm telling you is you.
• 54:36
  Speaker 7: Got to want it as bad as you want to breathe.
• 54:40
  Speaker 7: And you can't just talk about it, right? You got
• 54:42
  Speaker 7: to make it happen. It's about can you do better
• 54:46
  Speaker 7: than you did yesterday? I'm talking to that person that
• 54:49
  Speaker 7: keeps failing the mission. I'm talking to that person that
• 54:53
  Speaker 7: just wants to beat their self of yesterday.
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: Get up.
• 54:59
  Speaker 8: You got a day to conquer.
• 55:01
  Speaker 18: There was not a single night I went to sleep
• 55:03
  Speaker 18: feeling pressure. I just always knew I could do it.
• 55:09
  Speaker 7: Are you giving 120? Are you giving 70 because of
• 55:12
  Speaker 7: what's going.
• 55:13
  Speaker 8: On at your school?
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: Or what's going on between you and your principal? Or
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: what's going on between you and your peers? No, listen
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: to me. As we move forward, I must ask you
• 55:22
  Speaker 3: the question, how bad do you want it?
• 55:25
  Speaker 7: And so we're dealing with real life, and I get that.
• 55:28
  Speaker 7: But we got to want this as bad as we
• 55:29
  Speaker 7: want to breathe. I want to get you back to
• 55:32
  Speaker 7: 120 because we need you at 120. Back to that
• 55:36
  Speaker 7: place where not only you love education, but you're coming
• 55:40
  Speaker 7: in with 120%. Your life may not look anything like
• 55:43
  Speaker 7: you thought it would look right now, but you have
• 55:46
  Speaker 7: an opportunity today to change that. And every decision you
• 55:51
  Speaker 7: make is either bringing you to your destiny or taking
• 55:56
  Speaker 7: you from your destiny.
• 55:58
  Speaker 8: Control, alt, delete.
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: Control yourself, alter your thinking, and delete negativity.
• 56:05
  Speaker 8: Period.
• 56:07
  Speaker 7: But in order for you to get it, it's love,
• 56:09
  Speaker 7: it's sweat, it's tears. You got to put in hours.
• 56:12
  Speaker 7: I'm hitting a book every hour that I have. I'm
• 56:15
  Speaker 7: putting it into that book. And it's not just about
• 56:17
  Speaker 7: having it. It's about saying, I got to do whatever
• 56:20
  Speaker 7: I got to do to make it work.
• 56:22
  Speaker 14: There is a switch inside of every one of us.
• 56:26
  Speaker 14: And at any moment in life, you can turn that
• 56:28
  Speaker 14: switch from surviving Today, I want you to make a
• 56:33
  Speaker 14: decision to flip the switch inside of you.
• 56:38
  Speaker 8: See, it's not about the blow that you took.
• 56:40
  Speaker 14: It has everything to do with what you build after
• 56:44
  Speaker 14: the blow.
• 56:45
  Speaker 3: I don't care who you are, where you're from and
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: what you're doing.
• 56:48
  Speaker 8: Get to it. Get to it.
• 56:50
  Speaker 7: I wasn't in school to learn. And many of you,
• 56:53
  Speaker 7: you're not in life to learn. The reality is if
• 56:56
  Speaker 7: you give up too soon, if you don't learn all
• 56:58
  Speaker 7: the lessons that you're supposed to learn, you're going to
• 57:00
  Speaker 7: keep going in circles in life and you will never
• 57:03
  Speaker 7: get to where you're supposed to get to in life.
• 57:05
  Speaker 8: You cannot overcome until you become.
• 57:08
  Speaker 7: You can't do better academically until you become a student,
• 57:12
  Speaker 7: until you're the first one in class, until you read
• 57:15
  Speaker 7: every chapter you're supposed to read before you get to class.
• 57:18
  Speaker 7: That's right, you did the proper preparation before you got
• 57:22
  Speaker 7: to class, all right? Can you do better than you
• 57:25
  Speaker 7: did yesterday?
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: That's all I want to ask you. Can you do better?
• 57:30
  Speaker 3: There are going to be days when you're going to
• 57:31
  Speaker 3: be tired.
• 57:32
  Speaker 8: Of being you.
• 57:34
  Speaker 7: You don't want to get out of bed. You don't
• 57:35
  Speaker 7: want to talk to nobody. You don't want to think.
• 57:39
  Speaker 7: And you got two options.
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: You can give up or get up.
• 57:44
  Speaker 7: You can have journals full of dreams. But if you
• 57:46
  Speaker 7: don't count up the cost of what it's going to
• 57:49
  Speaker 7: take and if you are not willing to pay that price,
• 57:52
  Speaker 7: you cannot have your future.
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: Begin waking up at 2 o'clock in the morning.
• 57:57
  Speaker 7: You may have to lose sleep so that you can
• 58:00
  Speaker 7: accomplish what it is that you've been destined to accomplish.
• 58:05
  Speaker 7: To get to this next level is inside of you.
• 58:08
  Speaker 7: There's always another level. And if all we're thinking about
• 58:11
  Speaker 7: is the goal and not valuing the journey and the
• 58:16
  Speaker 7: growth that happens along the way, then we'll miss the moment.
• 58:20
  Speaker 7: And when we miss the value in a moment, we lack.
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: Momentum and we stay stagnant, feed it in reverse.
• 58:29
  Speaker 8: We not waiting for it to come to us. We
• 58:32
  Speaker 8: going to get it.
• 58:33
  Speaker 7: You can do whatever you want to do, be whatever
• 58:35
  Speaker 7: you want to be, but you can't do it talking.
• 58:38
  Speaker 3: You can't do it saying, making excuses. I'm sick.
• 58:40
  Speaker 8: Well, I had a bad day. Listen to me, baby.
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: Opportunity comes once in a lifetime.
• 58:45
  Speaker 19: It's necessary you take responsibility for it, that you make
• 58:49
  Speaker 19: it happen, that you don't give up, that you don't
• 58:51
  Speaker 19: take any objection or disappointment or defeats personally, that you
• 58:55
  Speaker 19: keep on keeping on, that you don't decide that I
• 58:58
  Speaker 19: can't make it because you can't see the light at
• 58:59
  Speaker 19: the end of the tunnel, that you realize that's a
• 59:02
  Speaker 19: part of the program.
• 59:03
  Speaker 8: Not over till I get over.
• 59:05
  Speaker 3: Not over till I get.
• 59:06
  Speaker 7: What I want.
• 59:07
  Speaker 8: Door can't open today, look out. I'm gonna come back
• 59:10
  Speaker 8: and take the.
• 59:10
  Speaker 30: Hinges off if you want to make it happen it's
• 59:14
  Speaker 30: you that you've got to take personal responsibility to make
• 59:18
  Speaker 30: it happen that you have got to own what it
• 59:21
  Speaker 30: is that you want to do if it's just to
• 59:25
  Speaker 30: take yourself to another level it's you You've got to
• 59:29
  Speaker 30: make that happen.
• 59:30
  Speaker 11: We can point out many things that can make it
• 59:32
  Speaker 11: inconvenient or can slow us down.
• 59:34
  Speaker 8: But ultimately, it's on us.
