when a lion walks up and sees an elephant he thinks lunch a elephant thinks run if you're a monster and you don't act monstrously then you're virtuous but you also have to be a monster I was once like you being the same animal attacking fast all the time then I became a different animal wa I learned to attack strong are you a different animal and the same Beast I need you every single day you wake up to smell blood and go after that dream I'm never full I'm never full I'm never full I'm never full
when you're hungry you don't care about the facts you don't care about the odds nothing can resist the will of a people that will stake even their existence on the of their purpose for good that when you have a made up mind the power to hold on in spite of everything the power to endure this is the Winner's quality the hunger the ability to face defeat again and again without giving up this is a Winner's quality tell me boy what are you made of if you can stay hungry you can get the resources if you
can stay hungry you can get get the strategy if you can stay hungry the idea is going to come if you can stay hungry the connections will be aligned if you can stay hungry the problem with many of you that you got fool you got complacent you got lazy you got to get hungry hungry hungry hungry and what are we become there is a new breed of Champions emerging out of the ashes of Doubt so how does the lion become the king of the jungle it's mentality run after your dream I'm doing pleas do you
know the hero has to be the hero has to be a monster I'm a beast everybody wants to be a beast until it's time to do what Beast do I never looked at things as problems I look at them as opportunities who teaches you to be a man greatness is not something that you meet once it's something that you meet thousands of times in your life and you don't reach it if you're not constantly in constant pursuit of greatness the most powerful thing that we can be is ourselves dreams without goals are just dreams and
ultimately they fuel disappointment those times when you don't feel like working but you do it anyway that's the dream it's not the destination it's the journey without commitment you'll never start but more importantly without consistency you'll never finish you can't just say you want it you can't watch the video and say I want it as bad as I want to it's cute to say it but when it's showtime when the sun comes up now it's time to hunt and what separates you from everybody else is that when it's time to hunt you ready to hunt
it's a lifestyle you don't hit this snooze button you don't want to go run you go run you don't want to go swim you go swim you don't want to make your bed you make your bed you don't want to clean your house and clean your house you don't want to study you study that's how you start to callous your mind that became my life when you can't control what's happening until you control how you respond to it that's where your power is if you stay in your comfort zone that's where you will fail success
is not a comfortable procedure if you think the price of winning is too high wait till you get the bill from regret not only do I want to be a beast if you follow my 24 hours I do what Beast do instead of the path of least resistance I started choosing the path of most resistance to prepare myself for the journey that was coming my way and you realize through hard work you can outwork anybody matter how badass they are it starts with yourself man you got to start diving into those things that you are
afraid of you don't gain confidence by going to the SP that makes you feel good it's could be a false reality in the second life gives you that challenge all you want to do is go back to what gave you confidence is that happy spot no what gave me confidence we spending years at a kitchen table trying to learn how to read and write on my own realizing I can't learn the way you learn I can't but I can learn what gives you confidence not being afraid is overcoming the fear that's what gives me confidence
is facing these things overcoming them and maybe not overcoming them every day but facing them and facing and fac them pretty soon like this you know what man this is where it's at it's not in that comfort zone it's in the discomfort zone is where my confidence is getting built mhm that's where it's getting built happiness peace Enlightenment it's all up here man it's all up here it's all up here you got to want to go and face it and that's the hard part the physical standard is not what they need to meet it's a
mental standard you must meet in life that's how I live my life I now know that there is no cap on the human mind there's no cap we Capa it ourselves the most people quit I just started and when you take that mindset and you learn to flip that around that's what made me powerful and my body follow and so I said I'm going to do this I'm going to give myself a challenge every single day until the fear goes away that's right and I feel like that's what more of us should be doing I'm
hearing that that's what you how you live your life that's all it is man and it helps me feel so much more confident when you overcome that fear of saying this doesn't have control over me anymore that's right it's like you can be at such more peace a lot of us speak in hollowwood I used to speak in Hollow words I don't do anymore everything that comes in my mouth has substance is real we all have these feelings in our bodies and our minds and our souls I act on mine a lot of us who
are afraid of something we allow our minds to choose the path that least resistance so we go a different route I'm afraid of something is telling me you must you must do that life is one big mind game and you're playing it with yourself you cannot lose perspective of where you've come in [Music] life I'm trying to give people a different thought process of life where failure hell disappointment discomfort is a great learning tool and many people don't understand that but it's these few moments in life that you have like for me I always talk
about it Rocky won round 14 that one tw minute and 13 second clip of Rocky getting up when Apollo knocked him down that one clip when I was going through a very bad time in my life I saw what I wanted to be it wasn't a guy that won it wasn't a guy that won everything he did it was a guy that kept getting up after being knocked down so I realized if that 2 minutes and 13 seconds changed my life so I was I saw something that I needed to be in the world I
was living in maybe my story will give someone the 2 minutes and 13 seconds they need to change their life everybody's got a story we don't share it on social media we share our nice life on social media we have we all have a dungeon I'm just willing to talk about mine mental toughness isn't something that you sample it's something that you live in every day whenever hardness comes and you don't know what it is it may be different for you than it is for me but you go back to your insecurities and then when
you go back to insecurities you didn't look for Comfort within those insecurities and we all look for that cookie that your mom used to give you when you were sad when you were sick we look for our wife or our husband we look for Comfort it's in those moments you must retrain your mind to think differently in hell the mental standard is you must know how far you've [Music] come I walk in the room now and I know the hours and years and decades I put into David Goggins that's something it's not on the wall
it's not a trophy on the wall it's not a Mel around your neck I don't care how you perceive David gogin because through my journey I figured out the one piece I was missing I thought I thought it was Cars I thought it was women I thought it was money I thought it was everything the one piece I was missing was me Having the courage to face [Music] myself where I got my work ethic from was the hours I had to spend learning this when you sit down and you're not smart and you have a
disability yeah and you still want to be in the top of your class I didn't want to get by when I realized that I can learn do hard work and I can beat the V Victorian in school but I got put in 10 hours more a day than he does you know what kind of strength comes from that when you're sitting down that guy that that Valor stud for an hour and you know I caught you I have the work ethic to catch you that's where David gagas got really invented yeah was at a kitchen
table with 20 spiral notebooks that were empty and then they were full and when you can go through that I still have them in my story un you go through these spiral notebooks of your life and you likee this is how I learned this is unbelievable it wasn't until I got real sick and my life got real [Music] quiet I I went from running 205 miles in 39 hours to I couldn't get out of bed my life was taken from me and that's when I realized I hadn't taken time to think about what I had
done in my life I done all these things but there was no Finish Line I finished a race of life and I wouldn't even receive my medal I go on I get in the car and I go when I started figuring out life that I was I was leaving so much in the T once I realized my God man I was this dumb fat kid being bullied and now I'm 180 lb person lost 106 lb in less than 3 months learn to read learn to do this learn to do that I was like I need
more I was fueling my mind with everything I never took time to say my God you came from this hell and you're here I had come 8,000 mil from where I started but if you never know that you're still in the $7 a month place so it's that quiet place it's that place by yourself it's those hours and years and decades by yourself in the grip of life when life has you by the throat and choking you out and you're sitting there calm because you're trying to figure it out you're not panicking you're not quitting
you're not throwing the towel you're saying there's a way around this and when you figure it out when life has you gripped in a vice and you can figure that out that's when you overcome that's when you overcome the journey getting there was harder than going through it yeah you know so that's the whole thing about life man it's it's that Journey that that makes you who you are everybody's great when they not tired this is when they tired that's when the real champions come out that's when a real dog come out it's where I
think the real truth comes out because I think there are a lot of people who are very talented who can make it there there are very few people who can deal with the pressure and the stress that happens when we're there I feel I'm the best ever it's not bragging AB bosing the proof is in a p in my mind I'm always the best I am the greatest FAL of all times and when I hit you with a hard right hand you will fall you got to win tomorrow got to win right now if you're
passionate about what you're doing keep going keep believing Reach for the Stars everything is always impossible until someone does it maybe has never been done before that's perfectly fine with me but I'm going to do it never say never because limits like fears are often Just an Illusion hungry dogs run faster and let the big dogs eat if you look at the great in any Walk of Life the greats do things when they don't always want to and that's the separation it means you have to be more disciplined than not disciplined I wanted to be
the best I could be period I was waiting for you to smile at some of the compliments you didn't she's smiling doesn't win you gold medals I'm too fast I'm too skillful and I'm going to show everybody out that watch this show and the whole world and the world will bow and admit that I am the greatest of all times when you see what I do to George for I believe that whatever I put my mind to and if I was willing to make sacrifices and I was dedicated that I could achieve absolutely anything I'm
the best ever I'm the most brutal and vicious and most ruthless Champion there ever been there's no one could stop me I'd like to take this chance to apologize to absolutely nobody maybe someone's don't like me because I'm maybe I'm too good you win some you lose some but you live you live to fight another day and I've always believed like I'm the Michael Jordan of this industry when I'm on the air I'm the one that will make you want to hear from me I don't care who I'm on the air I don't care who
it is it does not matter to me by the time I finish speaking I am the one that you're you're going to want to listen to that's my attitude if this requires 100% And you give me 99 I might want to fire you because I'm not I'm about getting the job done it's about the results and I think that you know unfortunately when we look at our generation today not enough people preach about that because I think that we live in a society where people have become Masters at pointing the finger at other people people
as to reasons why things don't get done I think there's too much explanation that goes on but the bottom line is you ain't getting it done and if you're not getting it done I need somebody that can get it done I am of the belief that if you truly truly adopt that belief in your soul then you walk to work every day not looking for excuses you're looking for a way for the job to get done and in most instances you are going to be successful than not you want to go with status quo you're
you're you're perfectly you know fine with flowing along just get along safe secure whatever but when you're trying to win you're constantly looking to get better My Philosophy is very very simple when it comes to my family particularly you know me being a dad if they're hungry it's because I'm starving I don't eat until they eat I not comfortable until they're comfortable I don't don't have unless they have that's the mentality and that's the mentality that I strictly get from my mother and so for me you know having that kind of mentality but what comes
with that what comes with that is a certain work ethic that you have to put forth and it's a willingness to sacrifice am I the most disciplined person in the world no am I the most meticulous person in the world like some people would believe no I'm meticulous enough and I'm disciplined enough but I think the key thing is is that the bottom line is everything to me and whatever the bottom line requires is what I'm going to do if the bottom line requires an excessive level of discipline I'm going to do it but to
me it's whatever the moment or the situation demands and it's I'm a bottom lines oriented kind of person you don't assume that opportunities are waiting for you you know obstacles are standing at every door right and so that challenge that you have to embrace and you have to deal with that's hard to deal with when you have achievement you don't work hard to play hard you work hard to have the ability to play when you want to that's a good there's a difference you handle your responsibilities first and when you work hard and you have
that sense of Pride it goes right out the window if you utilize your efforts in the wrong fashion but when you do what's right and it's based off of that effort that you put in then you feel good about it because you took care of your responsibilities then you can go play and I was not always confident there's no doubt about that I've always had my insecurities uhhuh what I firmly believed in was as it pertained to me is that I always worked hard I was never lazy um I was always somebody that beli believed
in hard work betting on yourself is believing in you knowing who you are what you worth having an idea about it any way and willing to work towards that to validate that reality that's betting on yourself it's your job and if you can't do it you scratch claw and even die trying we make excuses every day all of us as human beings on far more occasions and not I have to speak on the issue of accountability as it pertains to the entire Sports World and when it comes to the issue of accountability I get all
of that from Mom it happened with ESPN when my contract wasn't renewed back in 2008 I was sitting up there I was I felt betrayed I felt ticked off my mother let me lick my wounds for a couple of days and then she said what could you have done better you sure you didn't do anything and I thought about all the stuff I'm like what is she talking about this is just not true this not right I work hard I do this I do that and then I started thinking about it yeah I was a
pain in the ass I did kind of complain a little bit too much but the biggest thing that I remember doing is that I always came to the bosses with problems I never came to them with Solutions it was always about the problem never the solution and I learned when I sat back and reflected on the mistakes that I had made in my career at the time I learned that no boss wants to talk to anybody that doesn't have Solutions instead of working around the clock trying to figure out what somebody else wants from you
good or bad there are moments that crystallizes it for you in your mind pay attention and you'll see what they are and you'll know what to do accordingly that is what I believe makes me the best it's my commitment to Excellence for the collective [Music] whole those of you out there you lose it and you don't deserve to lose you put in the work you worked hard and you lose it and I need you to do me a favor this is the year to turn that around yes you were rejected the last time but go
for it again you were overlooked the last time but show up again why because you are not finished it is not over you are not done it is not too late but what's the Ates a dreamer from a doer let me break that down three words consistent follow through imagine a basketball player shooting Hoops how do you know if that shot's going to go in how you know if that person is a shooter you know how you become a shooter you know how you knock it down it's all in the follow through I know about
tough times they can make you or they can break you come on now come on bring It come on now yeah yeah God not giv us spirit of fear so I didn't have time to be fearful I had to replace fearfulness with being fearless and creative and take the initiative to do something else with my life I am going to make it this is my comeback story it takes Faith to step into your purpose it takes Faith to step into your destiny it takes Faith to pull away from everything that is familiar to step in
the Uncharted Territory to become the person you were born to be it takes Faith so from the start you must decide that you refuse to remain where you are have you ever thought about inspiring somebody else have you ever thought about lifen somebody else we need you to be a light in the midst of Darkness this world is gone crazy this world needs you to rise up this world needs your dream this world needs you to be you give as much time and energy to your dream dream as you do to your fears that creates

you want to stop losing the minimize the errors and make the rest of your life the best of your life even when it looks like you're losing you're winning never let uncertainty or doubt be the reason why you quit don't underestimate yourself you do what you can do do and God will do what you can't do take the initiative learn something new throw your net on the other side be ambitious reach ask for help not because you're weak but because you want to remain strong just make up your mind and expect things to get better
for you you need to walk into your future whole conditioned ready to grab the people that believed in you before you made it to the top go back and get them but first you've got to condition yourself come on who am I talking to I'm talking to that person that's tired of where they are you have to find a way you must find a way to get back up this is not the end for you you will not quit do not take this life for granted live every moment knowing you will have no [Music] regrets
we are alive and breathing and capable of more than we could ever imagine float like a butterfly and stain like a be I'm the biggest fighter in all history I'm the greatest fighter in all history and I don't have to convince knowbody now that I am great they all know it I'll fight any man in the world I'll beat any man in the world as you know I'm a confident man I don't believe or can see anyone beat me nothing worries me this is nothing but a small thing that will soon be out of the
way I put everything on the line cuz I'm a two fighting champion I got when I'm in the ring I'm handling it and I don't worry about nobody being that good to really hurt me so if you don't believe it come down here and try it I'm unranked it will be no match oh I'm so glad I'm going to make all of them shut the mouths all of my critics I told you all that I was the greatest of all time I'm still the greatest of all time I'm going to float like a butterfly and
sting like a bee his hands can't hit what his eyes can't see nothing can stop me as you know I've been under all type controversy all kind of presses but look at my face I'm the original Champion a veteran of 186 fights not a scratch two time United State Golden Glove Champion two-time United State national a champion World Olympic champion 13 Rounds out of addicted when my men are falling he who is not courageous enough to take risk will accomplish Nothing in life I'm a risk taker tell all of the people out there who betting

about you when you've I like for them to say he took a few cups of love he took one tablespoon of patience one teaspoon of generosity one pint of kindness he took one quart of lofter one pinch of concern and then he mixed willingness with happiness he added lots of faith and he stirred it up well then he spread it over a span of a lifetime and he served it to each and every deserving person he met Al thank you very much some people can see father than others some people are impressed with limitations we
all live in Long World Li of limitations some people can see farther than others so therefore when people judge what I'm doing with their logic it can't be done their reasoning say shouldn't be done their knowledge of history says it can't be done so their reasoning their knowledge and their logic clashes with my Superior belief therefore the results is they don't believe yeah here's how the fights going to sound over the radio for those you who can't afford to buy the expensive PA receipts and the fight goes like this ding Ali comes out to meet
Frasier but frasia starts to retreat if frasia goes back an inch farther he'll wind up in a rains side seat Al Le swangs with the left Ali sangs with the right look at the kid carry the fight Fraser keeps backing but there's not enough room it's a matter of time there Ali LS the boom now Ali land to the right what a beautiful swing and the punchless frasia clean out of the rain I've had too many fights I fought all contenders I fought every two months I gave everybody a break of the title I didn't
D nobody but really I don't know who I'm going to fight next and I really don't see nothing around good enough to give me a warm up and I want to fight George fan knock him out and truly retire well invested and you tell everybody that I'm still the champion of the world and I'm going to take him I'm going to clean up the ring with him I'm going to just sweep him all around the rain I am the champion I'm still the greatest and I cannot lose I'm going to prove to the whole world
that I'm still the best I'll always be the best I cannot lose it's impossible for me to lose are we going to get the title back aren't we the king of the Rain AR we going to dat we cannot lose but the stuff we use everybody has a purpose in life mine was just to be the World Heavyweight Champion I want to be declared by all as the greatest of all time right but I'm going to make you eat everything you say against me all of my CRI I am the greatest I cannot lose I'm

of water and kill a dead tree wait till you see Muhammad Ali so I don't believe that I'm going to be knocked out and punched around experience it's why I know I'll [Music] win and it's the fist that controls the brains and my brains are so wise my brains beat Joe Frasier I'll thanked Ken Norton I plan my fight round round see I'll think a man see the Matador beats the bull the bull is the strongest bull hits the hardest but the Matador is the smartest man conquered all the beasts in the jungles got them

criticize yourself at the end of the day life can be very painful we can experience loss and worry and the insomnia of reoccurring heartbreak and hardships it is inevitable it is self-compassion that gives us the power to face our failures to face our fears to face our insecurities to face what we don't like like about ourselves and come out on top when you're down find a way to get up I've been there I go through it like anybody else but I have a job to do in this world and so do you the real challenge
of growth mentally emotionally and spiritually comes when you get knocked down how you handle it that's where the growth takes place evaluate where you are look at it assess yourself assess yourself and assess the situation what brought you there what role did you play all of us are self-made but only the successful will admit it if you want to begin to move you've got to clear your mind of all the unnecessary luggage and baggage that's weighing us down I'm telling you from personal experience I know what my life was like when I put in 55
I know what it was like when I didn't try I know what my life was like when I didn't care I know what my life was like when I didn't have any dreams or any goals like like I didn't want anything I know what my life was like now I'm putting in 120 baby you put in 120 not only does it affect your life it affects your family's life it affects your friends life it affects your community's life are you hearing what I'm telling you I'm challenging you I'm challenging you to get from where you
are I'm challenging you to stop settling I'm challenging you I'm challenging you I'm challenging you to stop accepting the life that was given to you I'm challenging you to give 120% are you hearing me trying is not good enough trying is not going to get you there we need potential we need application we need dedication we need motivation we need discipline we need to understand that work must be applied and even when you don't want to do it find a way to do it anyway I'm coming back and I'll be stronger and better because of
it you have got to make a declaration that this is what you stand for if you are going to win the fight for your future then you are going to have to master self-compassion face the conflict Embrace rather than avoid challenges and you don't give up on yourself do not give up on yourself when you find yourself critic izing yourself negatively comparing yourself to others try to find inspiration in their successes and strengths instead of feeling threatened you're standing up for your dreams you're standing up for peace of mind you're standing up for health you
want it and you're going to go all out to have it everybody gets knocked down no matter how tough you think you are you going to fall and when you fall sometimes you fall real hard but that ground is a hard surface and I'm going to tell you something it ain't going to move because you're laying on it so you need to rise up and you need to rise above it and you need to start moving sometimes you have to back up and go within and pray and meditate and recharge your batteries go away clear
your head and then come back and look at it from a different Vantage Point don't operate while you are under the spell or the effect of what's going on stop half doing stuff stop putting for 50% effort 60 look stop do it right or just don't do it at all are you hearing me do it right there's a lot of people walking around today they have unchecked rage unchecked aggression unchecked anxiety fear insecurity you're going to have to care enough about yourself to face it and find a resolve you got to find out what's the
next things you need to be doing how are you going to push it to that level and go beyond it how are you going to maximize your time how much energy are you going to put into this craft everything you have everything you are everything you doing like it's it's 78 and what I need you to do is I need you to look at your stff in the mirror and say come on quit stop playing I deserve to see what my life would look like if I gave 120% stay dedicated you got to keep on
pushing forward you got to keep on fighting the good fight you got to put aside the excuses because excus excuses won't lift you up excuses won't give you the power that you truly need you've got to be willing to go against the tide you've got to be willing to harness your will and say in spite of this I'm in control here I'm not going to let this get me down I'm not going to let this destroy me when you get knocked down how longer you going to stay down when you lose your job when you
lose that loved one regardless if it's your husband your wife your child whatever it is do you have the ability to go through the hurt and the pain of that loss regardless of what you're going through the best time you know that you are strong is when you're at the weakest point of your life I want you to see yourself in your mind's eye and say to yourself I love myself unconditionally and I forgive myself if I knew better I would have done better to win the war for your future then you are going to
have to master the muscle of self-compassion when you are so far down that hole you looking up and you don't see no light but yet you know there's an end to this Darkness that's when you'll find out just how strong you really are just keep moving forward if you think that you're going through something so bad right now wait until tomorrow if tomorrow comes for you look at the person next to you look at people all over the world if you ever come in contact with certain individuals and ask yourself are they're going through a
lot more than what I'm going through because honestly there are always going to be people that are going through a lot more than you're going through right now remember the past but do not live in the past every mistake you have made up until this very moment forgive yourself with forgiveness comes Freedom you're going to have people to do things to you things are going to happen to you and the most important thing to do is to harness your will and let it go and move so you can grow so you can get on with
your life it doesn't matter about what happens to you what matters is what are you going to do about it this is a process and you have to hurt just a little bit so you can understand what it means to be strong so don't give up on your hopes don't give up on your and you're going to fail and you're going to fail and you're going to fail and you're going to fail and then you're going to win and that's life life without those challenges it's just existence don't just exist go live eventually in action
will cost you but your default setting should be I'm going to do something just get up move towards that challenge and go attack it go do something that's hard struggle sucks depends on how you frame it if you want freedom in your life you have to have discipline move towards that challenge whatever that challenge is and you may be successful and you may not be successful but you will be better and the next challenge you're going to be more prepared for because we're going to have wins we're going to have losses we're going to have
successes we're going to have failures we're going to have good nights we're going to have bad nights we're going to have good relationships we're going to have bad relationships we're going to have good ideas and bad ideas we're going to make money we're going to lose money all these things are going to happen and if you oscillate emotionally up and down drastically it's going to be problematic Embrace those emotions but don't let those emotions embrace you keep pushing through things that suck this is a very difficult thing to do because it hurts I'm going to
go forward I'm not going to quit so I'm going to go forward Bring It On [Music] if you are live you have another opportunity to Begin Again a new opportunity get up and get after it it's not about scrolling through social media and looking at people on vacations and looking at the people that are projecting the highlights of their life it's not about that it's about can you do better than you did yesterday they if you're walking through or walked out of or survived the worst trauma and pain of your life believe that this is
the first day of the best days of your life get up get up wake up there's always another level and it's not about beating the man or woman that's standing in the room with you you it's about beating the man and the woman that's in the mirror can you do better than you can you do better than you did yesterday that's all I want to ask you can you do better you may be tired you may be broken you may be hurting people may have betrayed you lied on you left you but you refuse to
give up there are going to be days when you are not going to feel like like waking up you are not going to feel like getting out of the bed you are tired of yourself you are tired of looking at the face in the mirror that you see you are tired of maybe the way that your body looks or the money that you have or the people that you are connected to there are going to be days when you are going to be tired of being you and you got two options you can give up
or get up this is the day that everything changes get up rise and R we get waking up at 2:00 in the morning you may have to lose sleep for a week so that you can accomplish what it is that you've been destined to accomplish what you were born to contribute to humanity so I know it hurts and I know it's expensive everything you need to get to this next level is inside of you but if you don't count up the cost of what it's going to take and if you are not willing to pay
that price you cannot have your future life and death is in the power of your tongue just get in a mirror and start speaking life over yourself you're making progress just needs you to be 1% better than you were yesterday get up you got a day to conquer rise and grind baby let's [Music] go thank you Lord for giving me one more day one more opportunity one more meal one more outfit on my back thank you for that one opportunity if you haven't been able to get up something inside of you has to snap you've
been insecure long enough you've been unfit long enough you've been unqualified long enough you've been overlooked long enough you've been undervalued long enough you've been in this cave you've been in this deep dark prison of obscurity and uncertainty and doubt and fear this is the day you come out of your tomb in this very moment you have an opportunity seize the opportunity I'm talking to that person that keeps saying I'm going to lose weight I'm going to make more money I'm going to learn a new skill I'm going to make bigger connections I'm going to
invest in myself and day after day you fail I know you don't feel up to the task I know you've got some doubt and you've got some fear and you've got some uncertainty and you hate the image that you see in the mirror and you hate ha the way your money looks and your relationships look and people that you've given your all to keep walking out on you I know you feel stuck in Reverse I know you feel like you're underpaid and undervalued and overlooked but listen get up this is the day that everything changes
you've got to do what is required in order to manifest get up and get after it so take a deep breath inhale exhale it's a new day control all delete control yourself alter your thinking and delete negativity period what are you made of what is your DNA what is your mentality what are the skill sets come on start to write down the vision believe that this is the first day of the best days of your life get up and get after it you are here by Design you are listening to this talk by Design every
day every single day is a new beginning and every decision you make is either bringing you to your destiny or taking you from your destiny there some of you you got to take everything you have on the inside and Claw your way back to right standing sometimes you got to dig deep inside I'm talking to that person that keeps failing the mission appreciate what has happened appreciate the people that walked out on you appreciate the people that hurt you appreciate the people that overlooked you the people that slept on you appreciate it I want you
to get this mentality in your head every day you pay you pay you may get 2 hours of sleep in 7 days so that you can accomplish what it is that you been destined to [Music] accomplish everything you need to get to this next level is inside of you there's always another level seize the opportunity and every day every single day gives you that new opportunity so if you don't have a to-do list get a to-do list if you haven't planned the day start planning your day the night before if you don't have a morning
routine get a morning routine start your morning with prayer and meditation if you're not tracking your progress start tracking your progress if you don't have accountability Partners you need to get accountability Partners if you have not identified the roadblocks if you have not identified the Kryptonite if you have not identified the hurdles what has hindered your forward progress identify those things this is your day get up and get after it the question is how hungry are you how much are you willing to give of yourself because it's really ultimately up to you you can't sit
around and waste time you can't sit around and determine that everything is going to go your way because it will not go your way all the time but I tell you what if you keep laying around wasting time time is going to continue to carry on with or without you because you have already decided to lay in your bed because you were just too tired to get up it's up to you to make a difference so that you can be a Difference Maker it's up to you to be a solution and not a problem that
means you got to be ser serious and you got to be willing and you got to be dedicated you got to take that leap of faith I understand it will never be easy I understand that I got to work I understand that sometimes I want to give up but I will not give up so while you're sitting around moping around blaming everybody for what you're not doing guess what nobody's going to sit around and wait for you to do the right thing for yourself because it's all up to you so just get busy you are
on your way success doesn't have time for your excuses success doesn't have time for your laziness success doesn't have time for the person who doesn't truly want to [Music] change see I know you are scared but turn that fear and to fire we've all been there we've all been afraid of something but don't give up you keep trusting you keep believing you keep going embrace the suck and keep on fighting it's okay that you fail but don't think you don't have what it takes don't doubt don't be ashamed trust in who you are I must
work I must believe I will f I will work I will push and I will never quit on [Music] me I know that I have to work I know that I have to believe I know I have to trust in me you got to show up sometimes we are going to have to just deal with the circumstances and the challenges that we face you can't be soft you can't be weak and expect the greatness to come out of you you can't expect anything good to come out of nothing if you're not giving nothing you get
nothing now get up and do your work when it comes to the work ethic that's when you have to dig deeper that's when you have to work harder that's when you have to shut out all the noise and all the naysayers sometime ladies and gentlemen you just have to be quiet and listen to your passion listen to your heart listen to your truth it's okay sometimes because these things are going to happen no matter how hard you work but you don't have the right to give up you don't have the right to give in and
stop playing a Blame Game and go about your business when you have been pushed back pushed back even harder I dare you to go down that path that many refuse to go pain passion Focus Faith you put it together you will be an Unstoppable Force the key to me being driven is identifying what my passion is and my mission is so if I don't have a passion and Mission then I don't have a drive if I could wake up every single freaking day and fight for that 14-year-old girl that was me me that didn't believe
in herself that felt ugly that was teased that was made fun of for my LS I will fight for that 14y old girl so that if I can help her to believe she can become anything she wants if she sets her mind to it and works hard then I feel like my job is done every day I wake up for that 14-year-old Lisa you can become anything you want to become but you're going to have to pay a heavy price to get there so the question is what is it that you want to do problem
is people are expecting something to be self-evident they are total lie that they're born with a purpose you're not born with a purpose you're going to decide that this passion this thing that you've worked your ass off to get good at that allows you to serve not only yourself but other people that's now your purpose nothing is ever going to be self-evident you're never going to come across something like this is what I meant to do with the rest of my life you are going to find something that gives you more energy than it takes
I only do and believe that which moves me towards my goals and so everybody in impact the university if you ask them which I do frequently uh what's the epith I want on my Tombstone it's you're having a biological experience I really want people to understand like you can learn about the brain and it will reveal things to you about yourself that'll be unbelievable if you're trying to get in a relationship if you haven't read books about the difference between men and women you're in real trouble the world will be very confusing to you if
you think that men and women are the same so understanding the biology of this stuff that was one of the big turning points in my life that finally allowed me to believe in a growth mindset was I just started researching the brain and it was like oh there's this thing called brain plasticity your brain actually changes no matter how old you are your brain changes and I was like okay well if that's true then if I put time and energy in to something my brain will change I'll get better at it and that will improve
my skills and then another Obsession of mine is to get people to understand skills have utility you don't read a book to get an A on the test you don't read a book to check something off a list you read a book to learn something that lets you do something in the real world that other people can't do and so uh Elon Musk has a great quote you're paid in direct proportion to the difficulty of the problems you solve so you're learning something so you can solve problems hard problems that other people can't solve and
so once you understand oh this is mechanical my brain is designed a certain way there's a certain path that I have to walk to gain skills and then skills let me do something other people can't do and by doing things other people can't do I'm able to serve myself and the group that's fulfillment fulfillment is the point it it is so mechanistic it's all just deadly simple and when I'm giving honest answers I'm always looping around this is how the human mind works and every time every time I say something controversial it's always about biology
like if you want to fight it fight it you're going to die tired and I will Propel myself forward because I'm not judging what is true I don't deal with the world the way that I wish it were I deal with the world the way that it is the thing with excuses is sometimes they're very true and but it doesn't serve you it doesn't serve your goal so are you going to let it sit with you or you going to find a way around it so let's say a lot of people's reasoning which was ours
originally when we wanted to make movies is we don't have enough money so we're just going to go and do this thing until we have enough money we don't have enough time and the truth is if you play the no BS what would it actually take and you say I don't have enough money then you keep going down go how much do I money do I need okay what would it take for me to get that money and sometimes people don't want to look at the answers so maybe it takes you having to sell your
house move in with your in-laws and rent one of their bedrooms for the next 3 years um in order to save your money so that you can go and start a company well some people don't want to do that okay well at least now you have your answer and you're not sitting there using the excuse that you don't have enough money you just looked at it and like oh to take for me to get there I need to live with my in-laws for 3 years I don't want to do that and now you've just decided
and now you're not beating yourself up over oh my God I can't believe I'm not there yet or like with us with Quest there was no we didn't leave ourselves any room with for excuses cuz we just went down that list of are we giving this over are we doing this are we actually showing up and if the answer is no then how can you expect to reach your goal so once we sit there and go what is our goal to build a studio as big as Disney all right before you even get started we
sit there and go what like no BS don't try and say like the things that we want it to be true but actually what is true that what would need to be true in order for us to build a studio as big as Disney and so we sat there and we said okay it's going to take us to put our own capital in it's going to take us to work hard what does work hard look like is it a certain amount of hours is it a certain amount of achievements where you put things into place
and you make sure you're always incrementally working towards that is it that you maybe you have to um this is exactly what we did with Quest it was oh we have to put the house on the line and that was like the noest that's what it's going to take for us to go all in and build Quest Nutrition and so once we sat there said okay it's going to take us to put our house on the line it's going to take me at the time to be that the supportive wife to come in and help
you out it's going to take no vacations it's going to mean you're going to need to take a third of your pay cut like we literally sat down and wrote a laundry list of what it's going to take to start Quest Nutrition and once we had that list we just looked at each other and we're like all right are we willing to do it and when the answer is yes now you just know what you're heading towards you know the type of path that you're about to approach and so there's no surprises there's no all
of a sudden him coming home and going yeah babe so the business isn't doing well and so oh my God I'm so sorry but we lose our house right there's no surprise we've established what we're going to do in order to go for that goal and in that comes the sacrifices what are you willing to sacrifice what are the things that you're okay with putting aside for now and a lot of that was my self-esteem my ego of like I didn't know what I was doing so every day I'm struggling I'm trying to figure something
out and I keep failing but I knew that had to learn in order to get to the goal that we wanted to get to so I knew every day I had to get back up and then the same with him with the skill sets what skill sets do I have to learn in order to get to the goal that we we want to get to and that comes with a lot of freaking sacrifices I'm no longer going to Value myself for being good smart right worthy I'm going to Value myself entirely for figuring out what
I need to get good at to achieve my goals and then I'm just going to do that and I'm going to do it knowing that success cannot be guaranteed [Music] [Music]
