YOU VS YOU - Motivational Speech

the longest time in the world is the hesitation between thought and action it can actually be forever you can hesitate for 1 second to get started on something a workout a project a task something that you know you should do you can hesitate for one second that one second of hesitation all of a sudden it turns into 5 seconds and then 10 seconds and then 10 minutes and then just like that you drifted into the eternal Zone one second became an eternity because something that was going to happen is now never going to happen ever

why is that because you hesitated so don't take that chance instead take action a body in motion tends to stay in motion a body at rest tends to stay at rest you've had enough damn rest you got to get to the point in your life where you decide I have had it I'm tired of being a loser I got tired of losing I got tired of coming up short I got tired I want to move to the nicest neighborhood I want to fly first class I want to go to Hawaii I made a decision enough

is enough it's showtime in order for you to go from one level to the next level in order for any woman to transition for any man to transition the thing that they want must be greater than the thing they currently have humans do not transition to another level when they comfortable with the level that they're on you only go to to another level when you say enough is enough I want you to live the life you were meant to live you hear me not the life that was given to you you deserve to see what

your life would look like if you gave 120% and what I need you to do is I need you to look at yourself in the mirror and say come on stop playing I deserve to see what my life would look like if I gave 120% that's Lon mode and you got to get to a place where you start executing making a freaking plan is the easy part and you have to understand if you don't execute on the plan if you don't get up in the morning when you're feeling tired scared if you don't execute you're

not just cheating yourself dude you're cheating your family you're cheating your employees you're cheating your team whatever you're a part of it's bigger than you man and guess what I had to get up even though it was hard and I had to take ownership of my life take ownership of my time take ownership of my day and if those of you you messed up why because you don't understand think act eat rest we talking about a schedule I realize that my strength is in my routine why because I'm not as strong as I thought I

was I'm not as intelligent as I thought I was it's in my routine it's what I do every day repeatedly the DNA of your success is in your routine you're not as deep as you think you are you got to find a routine I'm getting up at three and stick with it I'm getting up at 5 and stick with it yeah out of 365 days you going have a bad day or two but I'm trying to tell you the strength is in the routine find a routine and stick with it no more dreaming dreaming is

over I need specifics what are you doing on Monday what are you doing on Tuesday what are you doing on Wednesday you need to be very specific it's time to put your piece in together of your puzzle nobody gave me this I earned it life wasn't a crystal stare for me didn't nobody give me a network I earned a network I work my way to NBA I work my way to the NFL everybody say he how did you crack the Cod I grinded my way through the cold that's how I cracked it I got up

every day at three I don't care what the economy is doing I don't care who the president is nobody helped me to get here I had to get up I had to go to class I had to read I had to study I had to write I understood that the dream is real but the lifestyle is realer it doesn't matter what everybody else is doing stay predictable stay consistent in the why many of you are not getting it is because you're not consistent you start and you stop you get pumped up you start strong and

then somewhere in the middle you quit you have a little success but you don't experience exponential growth because you're not consistent you got to be persistent you got to be locked in you can't scoreboard watch too many of you scoreboard watching every time you do something you looking up to see the score you stopping working to look at yourself you not grinding you glaring you should be be grinding and you looking at the score the score is what it is the score ain't about to change cuz you looked at it keep playing the game keep

grinding keep working and that other stuff will take care of itself I'm challenge you to get from where you are I'm challenging you to stop settling I'm challenging you to stop accepting the life that was given to you and I'm challenging you to give 120% if you going to do what you say you going to do be what you say you going to be you going to have to line me out you a gazelle you going to come up short you a gazelle you're not always going to get what you want out of life you

a gazelle you going to have an average experience you a student I need you in Lion mode you a teacher I need you in Lion mode you an entrepreneur I need you in Lion mode you trying to lose weight lion mode you can't do nothing significant in gazelle mode nothing nothing impressive happens in gazelle mode nothing happen in run mode give up mode quit mode scared mode fearful mode nothing happens everything happened in line mod like I'm coming to get you you concentrate on this opportunity you don't worry about tomorrow you concentrate on this opportunity

with all your might with all your soul with all your heart you focus on this and tomorrow will take care of itself are you going to say you want to do something do it for two weeks and then quit like you did last year like you did the year before last you say you want to lose weight get in shape get your business off the ground and then turn around and party drink alcohol eat like crap and continue to live below who you were created to be how long is it going to take to make

the decision to make the shift and show some courage it is time to go from mediocre to meteoric it is time to go from being counted out to being count count it on I've never met anybody who became incredibly successful in any area of their life until they had suffered and sweated and sacrificed and kept their focus and fought through tears and trials and tests and if you have a dream and you fully commit to it sooner or later if you do not surrender if you do not quit it will happen when I wake up

in the morning I don't think am I motivated to go do what I'm supposed to do no I don't think about it for 1 millisecond when the alarm clock goes off I have no thought about whether this is easy whether this is hard whether I want to do it whether I don't want to do it none of that matters it's an emotionless thoughtless discipline when the alarm clock goes off you get up you get out of bed and you go do what you're supposed to do I don't care how it feels I don't care if

it's easy or hard it doesn't even matter to me it's just a reaction it's a discipline and it's life and that's the way I choose to live my life too tired too hungry too sore too hot too cold too whatever people ask me what I do when I get those little feelings running around well let me tell you what I don't do I don't kill everybody as a matter of fact I don't even let those W run around inside my own brain housing group I keep it secure lock it down to me this is an

everyday gig everyday is a Monday an opportunity to come out of the gate like a man possessed and attack the day without Mercy today I'm taking scalps I'm putting the pressure on I'm the aggressor I'm on the attack it's a lifestyle instead of hitting that snooze button in the morning and not making your bed you don't hit the snooze button you get up 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 you clean your house you don't want to study you go and study it's going to suck it's not going to be fun do something that sucks every single day of your life that's how you grow the only thing you do for Success it's sweat it's blood it's tears you think you going to get 50% you think you going to get 70% you think you going to give 80 there is no discount you can't get 50% off there are no show Shortcuts To Success stop thinking they are and stop wanting people to put you

somewhere that you didn't earn the real Beast is when their legs give out the real beast when they tired the real Beast find a way to pull something out when nobody else ain't got nothing when you really want it you no longer hit the snooze button you no longer lose focus when you're studying you no longer take shortcuts you are willing to do whatever it takes that means getting up early going to bed late that means you don't go to sleep when you're tired you go when you're done you might have put in some time

but you didn't put in the time yep you did some workout yep you studied a little bit Yeah you put in some time but you ain't put in the time the time that's required to make your dream become a reality you can't shortcut success you got to grind and you got to put in the time if you had the qualities of fortitude grit discipline mental toughness you wouldn't need a program for your finances you wouldn't need another fitness program you would understand how to execute the missing link is and always has been you in order

to be the best in order to get to the next level you got to sacrifice you got to be willing to do whatever you're asked to do there are no Shortcuts To Success there are no discounts to success it's always sweat it's always blood it's always tears you always have to give all to be the best I'm not going to sit around and wait for good things to happen to me I'm going to grind I'm going to fight I'm going to do everything in my power to become the very best version of me when you

do the things most people aren't willing to do you will live the life most people never will if you're willing to take the harder way the more complicated one the one with more failures at first than successes the one that has ultimately proven to have more meaning more Victory more Glory then you will not regret it if you stay in bed if you stay on the couch if you stay in your comfort zone if you only do what is easy your life will be hard but if you do what is hard if you get up

if you grind if you are Relentless if you work as hard as possible when other people are slacking off your life will be easy 1 + 1 is always going to equal 2 2+ 2 is going to equal 4 and 10 years of work when everybody else is partying making excuses doing the cool thing on the weekend is going to pay off I get frustrated with humans when somebody's late and they upset I get frustrated with humans when somebody borrows money from you and they don't pay it back and you upset I get upset when

humans when you go out to eat and they don't bring your food out the way you want your food out and you are so upset and you let them have it but then you disappoint you when you don't let you have it you give you a pass you give you a pass you're not where you supposed to be financially and you can gave yourself a pass you know you better than that you know you should be further in life but you keep letting you slide that thing that's holding you back that thing that's dragging you

down that thing is [Music] you your biggest enemy is you people don't understand it's you against you the only person that gets in your way is you nobody else it's you I need you to confront you because you the one holding you up I need you to confront you I need you to look in the mirror and tell you you are not going to do me like this no more you're not going to continue to sabotage me you're not you're not going to keep procrastinating I need you you're not you're not a loser You' just

made decisions that have created an environment that feels like it go look in the mirror take responsib ility for where you are and admit to yourself that you are where you are because of decisions that you made because of weakness that you had because of your lack of ability to do the hard things when things got hard that's why you are where you are and start right now fixing that start making better decisions right now and before you know it you'll be living a different life the only person you could control is you so f

focus on making yourself who you want to be discipline your body get up early and go get after it and you'll become the person you want to be and you become that person through one small decision at a time become the person who cannot quit become the person who can say no to the things that they know they're supposed to say no to become the person who makes the right decision regardless of the circumstances regardless of the hardships regardless of the pain regardless of the frustration if you become that person you have no limits in

your life there is no stopping that person you in three and you got six gears but you're accustomed to three you're accustomed to four I challenge you to push it to all the gears you got I want to see how far I can go I want to see what I can accomplish I want to see what I can do what I can be what I can have I want see I don't want to see what I think I can do I don't want to see what I think is possible I want to see what my

life would look like if I didn't count the cost if I had the mentality that you got to want it I'm going to try to be the best that I can be the strongest the fastest the smartest human being that I can become better than I was yesterday Better Than People thought I could be better than I thought I could be when you cut this off I want you to go look yourself in the mirror and I want you to vow no more excuses like from this day forward I'm not going to be getting pumped

up I'm not going to be fired up I'm about to start applying because listen to me very closely the difference between people who talk about it and people who do it it's one simple word application they hear it and they don't just hear it they digest it and when they digest it boom they do something with it I don't need you to learn a lot of stuff this year I don't need you to learn 40 things this year if you can learn one thing I'm talking about learn it I'm talking about put it deep within

now you hear it not you read it not you see it if you can give me one principle a month that you own that becomes a part of who you are that changes how you think that changes how you behave if you could become a executor if you can execute you can do the unthinkable you can make all your Milestones become a reality if it stop being a hobby you doing it when you feel like it you doing it when you get time you doing it on your lunch break you not serious you're not eating

it you're not eating it you're not dreaming it it's not Harding your dreams at night I'm telling you right now that those of you you are going to do the unthinkable if you can shut it down you got to shut the TV down you got to shut certain people down you are minimizing right now and you need to optimize this is going to be a full commitment to creating the kind of person that can make the right decision even when it's the last thing they want to do when they're tired when they're sore when they're

hungry when they're stressed when they're frustrated when they're angry when the world is crashing down on their shoulders they will still make the right decision your only solution is to become that kind of a person start today and in 365 days you will look back and you will say that was the day that was the day that everything changed that was the day that my life changed that was the day that my family changed that was the day my community changed my state changed and my country changed because I changed make that day today it's

going to feel better when it's over you know that when you get done doing the hard thing you know you will feel better when it is done you also know that if you don't do the hard thing the thing that you don't want to do that you don't feel like doing you know if you don't do it you're going to feel inferior you know you're going to feel weak those are the two outcomes one will cause you some shortterm gratification you'll get to sleep a little bit more you won't have to put out during a

workout you don't have to do this tedious task you'll get some short-term gratification but the long-term regret will be strong and it will inflict pain on you the other outcome is when you do what you're supposed to do you do what you know you need to do to move forward and when you do that thing you know you're going to feel strong and you're going to feel ground satified and you're going to feel worthy of this life easy choices hard life hard choices easy life and most of you in this room you can't give up

6 months you can't give up 8 months you can't let stuff go for a few weeks some of you can't just let girls go let it go some of you just can't let parties go let it go if you want to dominate in the area you got to let everything go but that thing you pursuing you can't chase two rabbits and catch both of them the shortcut is a Lie the hack doesn't get you there and if you want to take the easy Road it won't take you to where you want to be there is

no easy way there is only hard work late nights early mornings practice rehearsal repetition study sweat blood toil frustration and discipline there is only one way get up and go you need to be the master of your emotions not let them affect you get control of your feelings by getting control of your feelings you gain control of your life when you do this over and over and over again you change your brain you become tougher you become the one who decides what gets done and the level of success you achieve discipline is something you dictate

motivation won't make you exercise every day discipline will motivation won't stay up late and finish a project for you discipline will motivation isn't going to get you out of bed in the morning discipline will remember that the pain right now will absolutely pay off in the future some of you are not successful because you think effort is Success you think because you put in 40 hours that you supposed to get some because you put in 40 it don't work like that in the School of Hard Knox they don't care how many hours you put they

just want to see the execution so you feeling in your spirit like yo but I did just as much as he did I studied just as much as study it doesn't matter you just got to execute you got to get a little bit more intense about your life you got to stop being so casual there decisions we make that chase that best version of us every second every day because every day Alters the direction the course of Our Lives we are losing control and it's time to take control you've held up your someday and here's

the crazy part all you got to do is look in the mirror all you got to do is deal with yourself and then we going to get you a whole another l at some point you got to tell the flesh who's in control I'm in control you're not in control I know you don't want to wake up you don't have an option get up there's a certain lifestyle we want you need to discipline yourself you need to learn to tell you know you need to learn to tell you stop you need to learn to tell

you quit every single day if you do what you said you going to do you going to get what you dream to get some days you wake up you in the mood some days you're not in the mood a calendar does not care if it's your birthday birthday if it's a holiday if you're not feeling good a calendar does not care a schedule does not care so what happens is when you're consistent and you do something every day you do it over and over and over again it becomes a habit more stuff comes to you

when you execute son execution baby we will do it by listing our priorities we will do it by shutting everything else out we will do it by saying no to everything that does not apply to our priority we will do it by getting Fus is laser focus this will be the year that you stop half doing stuff you stop half doing sports half doing school have writing that book this will be the year of execution and we'll do it one day at a time and you're going to get control and when you get control over

that one area you're going to blow up in every area and then someday going to be your day if you work forward if you willing to put in that sweat that blood and those tears I'm telling you you can have what you want be what you wanton do what you won it ain't nothing you can't have if you willing to work for it if you willing to stick in there if you willing to stay if you willing to fight it ain't nothing you can't have discipline your body free your mind get up early and go
