  Speaker 1: Here we are, guys, our last break of the day,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: and it's been a good day. It's been a good day.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Hey, you know what I had to come to the realization.
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: Kind of want to share this with people, but you know,
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: I want to talk about there's a cost.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: There is a cost.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: You know, when you make the decision to be successful
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: comes with a cost. And as much as I've tried
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: to negate the cost, as much as I've tried to
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: alleviate the cost, as much as I've oftentimes just tried
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: to not.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Talk up the cost, the cost is real. You know.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: I got in trouble, not really trouble, but I got
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: a bunch of haters that came online one time when
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: they saw me give a speech about if you want
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: to be successful, really really successful at something, you can't
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: sleep eight hours. And I believe that, you know, somebody
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: counted it with Oprah says she gets eight hours sleep.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: Oprah's wealthy, though, but if you go back on her
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: journey and asked her when she was hustling trying to
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: make it what she getting ate, I don't think the
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: answer would be yes. Everybody, I know that's grinding, that's
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: in the hustle trying to really really have more than normal.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: If you want above average, it comes at a cost.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: And I've tried not to talk about it because I
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: don't want to, you know, knock anybody down about it.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: But man, it's there's a cost for everything.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: And you know, I know a lot of successful people
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: who have health issues. I've had my share of myself.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Tommy can tell you about his, Junior can tell you
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: about his. All of us can tell you about health issues.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: It's sometimes, you know, it just it's a part of it.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: I don't know how to explain it now. You don't
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: want to sacrifice one for the other, but sometimes it's
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: unavoidable because there is a cost, and a lot of
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: times you end up sometimes you have health issues because
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: you just don't know any better, you know, And that's
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: why knowledge is so important, because when you know better,
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: you can do better.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Had I known a long long time ago that everything
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: I put into my body was gonna have an effect
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: on me, I would have made some changes a long
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: long time ago. I just really started understanding this in
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: the last fifteen to twenty years of my life. You know,
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: the how important eating the right thing is, how important
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: it is to take supplements, how important it is to
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: take regular visits to your doctor. And as black men,
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: I'm talking especially the black men, we find it so
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: hard to go to these doctors. I got a partner
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: right now, man that's trying to get out the hospital
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: right now because he ain't been to the doctor in
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: eight years. But he's seventy and he ain't been to
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: the doctor in eight years. We can't do that because
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: we've been grinding. And I understood something about grinding recently.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: When you're grinding, grinding means actually to wear down. But
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: in order to have something, you got to get in
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: the wear down process, and the thing you end up
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: wearing down is your body.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Now, I'm not saying you should exchange your health for wealth.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: I wish that wasn't the cost, but oftentimes that's the
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: cost factor, and people who don't want it, you don't
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: have to do it. But then there's a cost with
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: being poor. To see, there's a cost factor when you
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: decide not to be anything. It's a cost factor when
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: you decide I'm just gonna ride it out, I'm just
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: gonna mail it in. There's a cost factor for that.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: I notice when old people who've been working their whole
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: life finally retire and they don't and they able to
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: stop being active. I watch them wear down, dissipate, just
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: wither away because that work, that thing called the grind
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: of getting up going to work every day. It gave
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: them something to live for. It gave them something to
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: do and made them active. It's just a cost, man,
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: But you have to decide which one of the costs
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: you want to pay.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Do you want to pay the.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Cost of being successful, or do you want to be
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: the cost you want to pay the cost of being poor. Now,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: when I say poor, I mean really poor. I don't
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: mean like if you make one hundred thousand dollars. Ain't
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: talking about like that. You're doing great, man, your life
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: is good. I think people that make one hundred thousand
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: dollars doing fine with your life. That's not what I'm saying,
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: So please don't misunderstand me. I'm talking about when you
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: don't have enough to eat, you can't put a roof
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: over your family's head, you can't get it to the store,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: and then you got to do more. Man, you gotta
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: do more. But it's a cost for it, one way
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: or the other. I suggest though, if I look back
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: on it all, you have to find a way to
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: create a balance.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: But the balance ain't gonna be even even. It's just
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: gotta be.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: You got to grind, you got to rest, You got
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: to grind, you got to rest, You got to grind,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: you got to rest.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: If you just.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, then
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: try to rest, the cost factor's gonna be greater. So
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: find the balance for yourself. I can't tell anybody what
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: that is, but there is a cost to being successful,
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: but there is a cost to not being successful, and
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: you have to decide which one of the costs you
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: have to pay. Now that's just real talk. You can
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: say it ain't so, but yes, it is. Ben't able
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: to provide for your family. That's a cost being able
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: to provide for your family. There is a cost. You
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: have to decide which cost you're willing to pay and
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: then find a balance in there. That's what I had
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: to discover. So those are my clothes remarks. That's it
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: for today. Hey listen, y'all, have a great day. Talk
• 6:19
