IF YOU'RE GOING THROUGH HELL. KEEP GOING. - The Most Powerful Motivational Speeches Compilations

the fight within a reminder to keep going you've heard it before maybe too many times life is a fight but I don't mean that in some cliche bumper sticker way I mean it in the way that only someone who's been pushed to the edge can understand I mean mean it in the way that life itself sometimes feels like it's conspiring against you when the weight on your chest feels unbearable when every step you take feels like it's only leading you deeper into the darkness but the thing about the fight about this life is that it's

not meant to be easy it's not supposed to feel like a Victory lap because when you're in the thick of it when you've hit your lowest point that's when you are at your most powerful there's a strange Paradox in life the moment you feel like you've got nothing left that's often when your breakthrough is right around the corner and I'm not saying that to offer you false hope I'm saying it because this life is about resilience it's about enduring the the storm not because you know for sure the sun is coming but because there's nothing

else left but to fight there will be days when everything feels heavy too heavy to carry there will be moments when you're convinced that you can't keep going that you're done that maybe just maybe this time life has beaten you I've been there and so have you if you're being honest with yourself and in those moments we have a choice we can give in the darkness or we can keep moving however slowly however painfully think about it what has quitting ever gotten anyone Comfort number peace not even close the only thing giving up guarantees is

that the battle will remain unfinished that the thing you most want will stay just Out Of Reach you know this life we're living it's short it feels long when we're in it struggling it feels endless when we're at rock bottom but if you look at the grand scheme of things at the time we've been given it's a blink a flash and it's over and I think about that often about how we're all running against the clock fighting to make something of ourselves fighting to matter to leave something behind but here's the [Music] truth your fight

isn't just about Legacy or success or material things it's about surviving the hardest moments and choosing to stand back up when life throws you down there's a saying that it's always darkest before the dawn that the worst moments the toughest battles are always right before something [Music] gives but that Dawn it's not promised is it sometimes it feels like it'll never come sometimes it feels like the night stretches out endlessly like there's no light in sight but I'll tell you this I have seen people hit what looked like their absolute rock bottom and I have

watched watched them [Music] rise the point is no matter how dark it feels no matter how lost you are there's always something on the other side maybe it's not the life-changing event you were hoping for maybe it's not the perfect Sunrise but it's progress It's growth it's the chance to be a little stronger a little tougher a little more ready for the next battle the key is to keep pushing through the dark to fight for that Dawn even when you can't see it even when you doubt it'll ever come because that's the human Spirit that's

the fire inside you that refuses to be snuffed out and maybe just maybe that's what this whole thing is about not about winning but about [Music] enduring I'm not going to stand here and tell you that the road ahead is easy it's not it's brutal life is unfair it doesn't care if you're ready or not it doesn't care if you're tired if you're on your last [Music] breath it will keep coming at you with everything it has but you you have something life doesn't you have choice you have resilience you have the ability to keep

fighting even when the odds are stacked against you and that's what will make the difference so the next time you feel like giving up the next time it feels like it's all too much remember that it's in those moments the darkest ones that you're closest to breaking through remember this life this short unforgiving life is yours to fight for don't quit before the dawn don't stop before you see the other side it's coming it always is keep fighting you owe that to yourself how true it was when Gerta wrote as soon as you trust yourself

you will know how to live magic is believing in yourself if you can do that you can make anything happen if you treat an individual as he is he will remain how he is but if you treat him as if he were what he ought to be and could be he will become what he ought to be and could be a person hears only what they understand knowing is not enough we must apply willing is not enough we must do nobody has all the answers but the the answers will come to you if you're available

and I think you need to make time to accept the answers and to figure out the answers life is a challenge life is is hard it's not easy but the message is that you got to keep moving forward you got to keep getting up and pretty soon people look at you God they're so so successful they're they're lucky no if you work hard the answers will come only thing separating you from a dream is putting it on paper writing it down having the plan and taking action that is the only difference us as humans our

human nature wants to be lazy we want to do as less as possible but have as fun as possible with most pleasure and avoid pain we that simple but then we over complicated things with the systems and all this other stuff so just acknowledge that write it down have the plan and be the person to decide your schedule and what you want to do rather than someone else giving you a task that you're working and helping them build their future more than you building your own future remain focused you are in the process of building

a legacy your potential is not even close to being met it's all there waiting for you but you have to remain focused and I know how bad you want it you have a gut feeling that is telling you this is not not it don't ignore it it is there because it is your purpose and far too many people get distracted and end up wandering down a different path don't let that be you and it's not hard this is a beautiful process invite failure be excited for challenges get lost a little bit because when you find

your way back I promise you you will be more knowledgeable more disciplined and more focused it's fearful it's fearful you know life gets more and more difficult as we get older we think it's it's easier it doesn't it gets more complicated and layered I've always said the life is kind of like from 1 to 40 it's all about addition and from 40 on it's about subtraction you have to say you know what how do I make myself happy what is it going to do like I try to make everyone happy now what is the thing

that's going to make me happy but in doing that you may have to change your life drastically and that takes a lot of guts but it's going to be worth it you know because sometimes we follow a path that wasn't the right path and you know how do I turn around it's not easy the real win is the process it's not the trophy at the end of the day it's not the awards it's not the glory the win is that you put in the work when you didn't want to when nobody was watching you did

it for you that's the biggest win you can ask for never give up as humans we we tend to Define people by their choices by their actions but then what motivates their actions well often it's how they feel and in what motivates how they feel about certain things it's their perception of what's valuable and what's not and so that's kind of how I drill down to to this idea that essentially what we are is just an aggregation of what we choose to value in this world because everything else will flow from that your biggest battle

is isn't with the competition it's with yourself it's in those moments when you hesitate let excuses win and allow distractions to derail your progress the real competition is in the choices you make every day every decision either brings you closer to your potential or keeps you stuck Master the discipline within and nothing out there can stop you because the only person standing in your way is you you can't afford not to face this fear not to face what's holding you back not to face this thing that you're so afraid of your future is way too

important it's way too important way too important we need you we need that out of you we need you to face that fear to grow out of this stage in the end you realize it's just you no one is coming to save you no one can understand you at the depth you want them to no one can lift you up other than yourself no one can be there for you all the time and no one else can overcome the thoughts that are weighing you down it was always you and it will always ever be just

you I don't think you realize just how limited time you have on this earth 100 years if you're lucky and even then it's such a gamble because you never truly know what's going to happen so this is why every single day matters every single moment matters so you should be living every moment to the fullest you should be really working on yourself working towards your dreams working towards your goals working towards whatever it is that you want because this is your one shot so make it count and if you do that if you really put

in the work you put 100% of your effort in you could achieve everything that you want to achieve but nothing is guaranteed so at least try your best because if you try your best you have the best shot at succeeding you must assume that you already are what you want to be and then live by faith in this assumption living from the end means that you call the things which do not exist as if they did it will chase after you if you can place into your imagination what it is that you would like to

attract and begin to feel it that which you feel yourself to be you are and you are given that which you are so assume the feeling that would be yours were you already in possession of your wish and your wish must be [Music] realized there's a moment in every f whether it's in the gym at work or in the darkest corners of your own mind when you ask yourself is it worth it you've been hit over and over you've been knocked down picked up and knocked down again you feel like you're running on fumes with

nothing left to give the idea of just letting go starts to creep in maybe the fight isn't worth it anymore maybe this is the end but it's in that exact moment that Split Second when you feel like giving in the decision you make changes everything because holding on just holding on when you think you've reached your Breaking Point that's where the magic happens life isn't a straight line from one success to the next it's messy it's unpredictable you have plans you set goals and then life steps in and wrecks them you get setbacks failures disappointments

and you begin to question if you're even on the right path that voice in your head the one that loves to tell you to quit starts getting louder it's convincing isn't it it tells you that you're not good enough that you don't have what it takes that maybe this just isn't your story to win but here's the thing that voice it's a liar because deep down you already know what happens if you quit you know what happens if you let go you go back to square one and worse than that you'll live with the regret

of not seeing what was waiting on the other side of the struggle and I'll tell you something about without regret it lingers it stays with you much longer than the pain of the fight there are moments when life wants you to give up throws roadblocks in your way it sends storms to beat you down and it's almost like it's asking how much can you take and it's easy to think not this I can't take this but that's not the truth Tru the truth is you've survived every single storm up until now maybe you stumbled maybe

you were barely hanging on but you're still here aren't you the fight in its most raw form is about endurance it's about how long you're willing to stand in the fire it's about showing life that no matter what it throws at you no matter how many times you're hit you're still going to get up you're still going to keep moving forward that's what separates the people who succeed from the ones who fade away you see success doesn't care about Talent it doesn't care about potential it doesn't care about how many times you've been knocked down

the only thing it cares about is whether or not you're going to stand back up life will hit you when you least expect it it'll pull the rug out from under you when you thought you were standing on Solid Ground that's a fact but here's another fact you have within you the power to get back up again and again you have within you a well of strength that goes deeper than you even know it's only in the hardest moments that you start to realize what you're capable of it's only when everything falls apart that you

learn how to rebuild stronger than before here's what I know to be true the people who make it the people who really change the world aren't the ones who had it easy they're the ones who were tested they're the ones who felt like giving up a 100 times a thousand times but didn't they're the ones who learned that every setback every failure every time they felt like they were at the end of the road was really just a stepping stone a step closer to their goal a step closer to the version of themselves that could

handle whatever life threw at them it's tempting to quit when you're tired when you're worn out you've been beaten down by life and can't see the way forward but in those moments I want you to remember something you are so close closer than you think you can't see it yet but you are the Finish Line Is Never as far away as it seems when you're in the middle of the race you have one job in this life one and that is to keep going to show up even when you don't feel like it to fight

even when your body and your mind are screaming at you to stop you might not win today you might not win tomorrow but if you stay in the fight if you refuse to give in the victory will come it always does think about the times you've wanted to quit before the times you thought you couldn't handle one more day but you did you're still here that means you've already proven that you're stronger than you think that means you've already shown life that you can take the punches and keep moving you've done it before and you'll

do it again so don't give up now not when you've come this far not when you've already been through hell and back you're closer to the other side than you know and when you get there you'll look back at these moments these struggles and you'll realize they weren't setbacks at all they were the very things that built you they were the tests that showed you who you really are [Music] be what it is you claim to be about be what it is you truly want to be okay if you truly want to be successful if

you truly want to change your life be about it today be about it today and then when today's over be about it [Music] tomorrow we all have fear everyone has fear fear is one of the most greatest things that you can possibly have fear is an instinct fear propels you fear makes you great fear brings you alive doesn't it what would you do if you just learned today that you only had 6 months to live what if you only had 6 months to live what would you stop doing what would you do more of who

would you spend time with now the answer to that question is very interesting because what it tells you is what you really value what is really important to you number one don't run away and number two be honest to yourself those two things you should keep them in mind and then just put time effort into practice I think is the key step by step build something up about yourself about your life about your character and personality that will give you some strong fundament in order to tackle everything that this world is going to throw at

you truly believe we are all equal as human beings if we are obsessed with something and we truly pursue our passion with everything we have regardless of any anything else if you are obsessed work hard put in the time you will succeed and this is hard work this is an obsession nothing can beat hard work the most important people in your life are the people people who believe in you before you even believe in yourself the people who see something in you before you can see it in yourself those people are essential to whatever it

is that you want to achieve and accomplish because there's going to be a point when you've pounded your head into a wall so many times that you're Delirious that you can't see the vision for your future that you can't see that it is at all possible and having those people in your life to ground you and to Center you around the fact that you can do it that you can achieve those things that you are capable that your potential is so much more than what you're currently doing changes everything the cure for sadness isn't finding

a 100 different ways to be happy it's accepting the life you're walking through for what it is and pushing through it's believing that everything has a purpose and learning to make peace with past versions of yourself that don't align with who you've become the pain is a prerequisite improve yourself as a human being there will be many things in this life that you don't have control over but your happiness is not one of them perspective is everything I don't care where you come from I don't care where you were raised I don't care what color

you are I don't care what gender you are I don't care about any of that if you do the work consistently if you invest in yourself consistently 1+ one is always going to equal two 2 plus 2 is going to equal four in 10 years of mothering work when everybody else is partying making excuses doing the cool thing on the weekend is going to pay off you can do this I don't care if you have to inch your way day by day even if you have to get down and it hurts and it's hard and

nobody can see what you're really going through if you don't quit the pit will become your platform it's not what you get that makes you valuable it's what you become so part of the key here is to set the kind of goals that will make something of you don't set them too low so that you don't have to grow and you don't have to read and you don't have to to try and you don't have to stretch don't set them too low and then don't sell out don't go for something that's going to cost you

your virtue or cost you your values or sell out your principles there's a good Middle Road here to follow goals that will inspire goals that'll help you grow change develop and become better than you [Music] are a creative life is simply this a creatively lived life is any life where consistently routinely habitually and constantly you choose the path of curiosity over the path of fear not once not twice not a few times but all the times all the times because you're constantly going to be in these Crossroads in your life daily almost where there's a

lure of curiosity on this side and there's a kind of a roadblock of fear over here saying take this take this safer path I don't know what I don't know how that one ends um so let's just continue with this and if you keep going to the right on the fear path instead of going to the left on the Curiosity path your life gets smaller and heavier which I know is not what you want or what anybody wants the greatest version of you is not the I can do anything version of you the greatest version

of you is the disciplined version of you I'm focused I have a prize that's in front of me I know what I'm supposed to do and that ain't it I have to stay right here it's the version of you that has parameters if you guys mentally believe you can do it your body will find a way physically to make it happen if you are short up here it doesn't matter what you do with these guys it will never materialize into anything no dream willever become reality winners the difference between them and The Spectators is the

winners have a belief that overrides the crowd's disbelief every single time their belief is so strong even though they hit failure they get kn own ass they find the intestinal fortude stand back up again facing seeing challenge learning from the previous mistakes and make it happen but the quality is to develop the quality of being Unstoppable develop the quality of being Unstoppable say in yourself that no matter what life throws at me it'll never stop me no matter how rough it gets I will never quit and nothing will ever stop me you are the architect

of your own reality so design a life that resonates with your true [Music] self what you think and what you believe is what will come true for you your thoughts create your life it's that [Music] simple there comes a time when you have to snap you make a choice to go all in to stop hesit ating to be relentlessly consumed by what you love you give everything towards a vision only you can see and everything turns off except this one thing that dominates your life once you decide life becomes simple Life's too short to not

see what you're capable of what kind of permission do you need H to do the thing that you and I both know you really want to do the thing that not everyone is going to approve of but you know you're meant to do what kind of permission do you need to get up and get after it yes there's some risk mostly just a bruised ego but you know what's a hell of a lot worse than that living with the regret of inaction knowing the thing that you need to do the scary steps that you have

to take to grow into the person that you know you want to be and doing nothing so if you need it this is your permission slip go do what you need to do disappointments Come Those are normal that's part of life but the question is how do you handle it how do you handle the coming Winters and the disappointments and the downtimes well you can get stronger you can get wiser and you can get better the winters won't change but you can and that's how life changes for you see before I understood when it was

Winter I used to wish it was summer I didn't understand when it was hard I used to wish it was easy I didn't know don't wish it was easier wish you were better failure mistakes problems are actually the best thing that can happen to you that instead of getting reactive and going God damn it why did I what's wrong there and getting all stiff and rigid just bend with it and say this happened for a reason it's teaching me a lesson I made a mistake I need to learn from this this is it there will

never be a more perfect time than now to put everything on the line don't worry about tomorrow don't worry about how long you can keep this up just do it today use every ounce of energy within you to be the absolute best that you can be set Direction not destination if you want to be agile quit trying to arrive somewhere just take the journey the dreams free the journey is not and there's no improvement When we arrive you don't improve before you start and you don't improve after you arve you improve while you take the

journey it's the journey that you discover it's the journey that you improve do things just because you think you're going to get something for it that's not why we do things do what's interesting to you don't worry about the outcome we can't predict the outcome we can never predict the outcome follow your own inner guide it directs us stop comparing yourself to other people you're not in competition with them you've got to get this in your mind in this life your only competition is you life is you versus you all that matters is when you

go to bed tonight is that you're better than you woke up this morning and if you stream together 365 of those days then you're a different person in a year with a massively different life beautiful thing about life is that you get to choose your heart everything in life is hard but you get to choose what your heart is it's really hard to build an incredible body and physique it's also really hard to see your body completely fail you it's really hard to build meaningful relationships it's also really hard to live on the surface with

a bunch of people again you get to choose your heart it's really hard to live a life of purpose working on something you care about it's also really hard to live without purpose you get to choose the Thorns that you're going to have on the path of your journey it's something that I think about constantly is like how can I just endure this a little bit longer how can I just Embrace this hard of whatever it is that I'm going through the only thing between you and the person you want to be are the skills

that you're missing first imagine yourself in 10 years doing exactly what you want to be doing now ask yourself what skills does that version of you have that you currently don't list those down and next ask yourself how those skills are acquired the next step is to be relentless in your pursuit of developing those skills every day make sure every job opportunity side project overlaps with this list in some way focus on the skills that you're missing and over the long run you'll become exactly who you wanted do you really want Legacy do you really

want to live out your dreams and live life as you imagine do you really want to reach your full capability in mind body and spirit do you how bad does it make you lose sleep at night does it leave you feeling restless is it at the Forefront of your mind every minute of the day now here's what I want you to know if you don't sew you don't reap so if your focus is on reaping and what are people going to do to add value to me today every day is going to be empty every

day you're going to come up short but the day that you realize that adding value sewing seeds is more important than reaping the Harvest your life and your communication will incredibly change you see I consider the success of my day as a communicator as a leader is based on the seeds I seow not the Harvest I reap in the shadows of our grief Hearts heavy with loss and Minds burdened by the weight of the world we confront the Stark reality of our existence pain sorrow and despair are unavoidable Companions of on this journey called life

these emotions though often unwelcome are intrinsic to our Human Experience they remind us of the depth of our love the significance of our connections and the fragility of our existence but even in our Darkest Hours there is a flicker of light a reminder that we are not alone [Music] each tear shed each sigh of Anguish is a testament to our shared Humanity we are bound together by our struggles and it is in our Collective suffering that we find the strength to endure this shared Journey while f with challenges also offers us the opportunity to grow

to learn and to find deeper meaning in our [Music] lives life is fragile and its beauty is often [Music] fleeting we are reminded of this when we lose those we love when our dreams are shattered and when we Face the harshest trials [Music] it is easy to feel overwhelmed to succumb to the crushing weight of hopelessness yet it is precisely in these moments that we must remember the resilience of the human Spirit our capacity to adapt to persevere and to find Hope even in the bleakest of times is what defines us as human beings we

may stumble and we may fall but we rise again we carry the memories of those we have lost within us and their Spirit fuels our determination to press [Music] on their dreams become our dreams their hopes our hopes we honor them by living fully even as we carry the ache of their absence it is through this living through our actions and our choices that we keep their legacy alive we must remember that every step forward no matter how small is a testament to their enduring influence on our [Music] lives the road ahead may be long

and arduous and there will be times when we feel we cannot go [Music] on but let us find solace in the quiet strength that resides within us let us draw Courage from the love and support of those around us in our grief we discover the depths of our compassion the breadth of our empathy and the power of our Unity [Music] together we can face any challenge overcome any obstacle and find a way to move forward as we navigate this difficult path let us hold on to the belief that despite the sorrow there is still Beauty

to be found in the laughter of a child the warmth of a friend's Embrace and the Gentle Touch of a sunrise we find glimpses of the hope that sustains us these moments though fleeting remind us that life is still worth living that there is still joy to be experienced and that we are capable of finding happiness even in the midst of our pain life is a mosaic of joy and sorrow each piece integral to the whole though we may be consumed by sadness let us not lose sight of the moments that bring us light let

us remember that even in the darkest night the Stars still shine these Stars symbols of Hope and guidance remind us that there is always a way forward always a path to follow even when it seems hidden by the shadows of our grief so let us move forward with a quiet determination honoring our pain while embracing the possibility of healing let us live not just for ourselves but for those who can no longer do so in our shared Journey we will find strength we will find purpose and we will find a way to carry on each

day is an opportunity to honor their memory to live in a way that reflects their values and their dreams and to make a positive impact on the world around us in our pursuit of healing let us also be kind to ourselves grief is not a linear process it es and flows and it takes time allow yourself to feel to mourn and to heal at your own pace surround yourself with those who understand who support you and who can offer you comfort remember that it is okay to seek help to lean on others and to find

solace in community as we continue this journey together let us remember that we are not defined by our losses but by how we choose to respond to them we have the power to transform our pain into something meaningful to use our experiences to help others and to create a legacy of resilience and hope in this way we honor the past embrace the present and look forward to a future filled with possibility [Music] if you have enough reasons you can do anything if you have enough reasons you can go as far as you want to go

cash in on all that you want to cash in on if you have enough reason enough reasons to get up early enough reasons to stay up a little late enough reasons to buckle down and learn the disciplines enough reasons to put yourself through the paces enough reasons to develop the language enough reasons to pay the price I hate it when people say fake it to you make it cuz that sounds to me like you're lying I like I am future me I'm walking into this room right now as future me I have written down very

clearly who I want to be one year from today I'm going to be that person now that's what I'm going to be I'm going to start acting like that person today the only thing standing between you and the life that you want is the ability to grieve grieve the past potential mourn the fantasy of what could have been the life that you thought you'd have by now the people who chose not to stay the mistakes that you're still beating yourself up for grieve it all let go of your comfort zone and the desire to be

chosen or approved of because your new life will cost you your old one and remember that in the process of building this life that you want you'll only ever lose what was meant for a person that you no longer are you need to understand this everything in your life is a reflection of a choice you've made if you want a different result make a different [Music] choice you have to demand it you have to promise yourself this is it right here you have to promise yourself that you will not ever be a failure you have

to marry this thought pattern I don't care if on your deathbed and dying hurts anything you'd have to promise yourself before you get there that you are not going to go home and loser yeah it's like the things that we need to work on that are calling us that are the portals into Evolution and and greater awareness and self- understanding are the things that we don't want to look at because they're uncomfortable if you don't confront them or look at them they only grow stronger and at some point reveal themselves in your life in in

in ways we you know none of us want right so that the solution is always to move towards the thing that that you know you're avoiding or don't really want to deal with once you decide to be Allin you are going to be misunderstood by every individual out there including yourself you will no longer recognize yourself because being Allin requires you to show up differently and different scarce people whatever you want in life you're going to have to work hard for it and if it's huge you're going to work 10 times as harder I would

get so jealous of people who could get it easy or get some form of it without having the the difficulties that I had I'm like how did you just walk into this and get that and how I'm I'm struggling I'm I'm I would get so angry and then I I had to like you know what I'm never going to be jealous of anybody again what I'm going to do is I'm going to understand why my path is different why do I have to work much harder than that person and when I tell you as I

look back at all of those people I kept surpassing and surpassing and surpassing and surpassing every time I'm like wow the very person that you were jealous of because of what they had look at where you are now now they're looking at you going wow how did you do that well instead of being jealous I started working and focus and working harder and harder nobody could outwork me all of us have this conflict going on at all times inside of us and it's between two forces and the first force is your voice of fear and

your inner critic there's another voice this second voice your soul your true self that voice is a little quieter and that voice isn't in your head a lot of times it shows up in your body feel that the voice of fear will lead you to A Life That's too small if you want to reach full power it's in the second voice this contains your dreams your path contains your energy energy is the language of your soul if you want to feel the full magnitude of what you can do in this one life that you have

there's really only one decision which voice will you listen to every limitation you have in this life is self-imposed you don't have to be special or talented all you have to do is believe with every fiber of your being that you can make it work and sooner or later it will if you believe you have what it takes then your mind will do whatever it can to prove you're right so be delusional go for that thing that seems like it's so far Out Of Reach because the only thing that's stopping you is you I ask

people all the time man who are you when it go south man not when you get what you want we know when the Sun's shining and you get what you want you going to smile right babies do that I give them a bottle they going to smile I give them what they want they going to smile I give a puppy I snack he going to smile but when you don't get what you want when it doesn't go the way you want it to even if it affects and impacts you on a physical level who are

you because that's the person that your kids are going to learn from that's the person that your parents raise that's the person that will go out and either positively or negatively affect and impact the world progress over Perfection you do know that if you're making progress most people are going to try to nail you with not being perfect so don't even try to be perfect just embrace your weirdness embrace the fact that you're different I think you got to give yourself a little credit for being that way but if you're going to do it you

can't give into the criticisms you're going to be hearing you're going to get critics all the time you're going to live in discomfort most of your life remember this growth over destination expansion over stagnation progress over Perfection you got to lean in to progress you got to lean in to who you are you got to fully celebrate and embrace the fact that you're trying to do something great with your life and that should be acknowledged a bird doesn't land on a branch trusting that the branch won't break but rather trusting in its ability to fly

away you are the bird life is the branch don't waste your entire life overanalyzing the safest place to land make a decision enjoy the view while you're there and trust that you'll be able to move on if and when the time comes you aren't who you used to be it's okay if you made mistakes and aren't proud of the person you once were because that's not who you are anymore so it's time to put all of that behind you step into a new Direction and keep moving forward believe me when I say that you're past

doesn't Define you you have a choice to wake up every day and start a new beginning you aren't where you were last year and you aren't who you were last night just keep fighting to get better one day at a time lot of people have this fantasy of like flipping the switch and becoming a new person and never going back to being their old self and that's what it is it's a fantasy because the reality is you wrestle with your old self every single day you don't just make the decision to be different once you

have to make it over and over and over and over again you're going to have plenty of days where that old self comes knocking on your door those old habits come knocking at your door those old Tendencies come knocking at your door wanting to wedge themselves back into your life and you have to resist and resist and resist and sometimes you fail sometimes you have a moment of weakness and you end up being your old self for a moment but as long as the next moment you choose to be better you're going to end up

fine it's when you don't resist and you don't try to be better and you spend the entire day being a loser and you spend the entire week being a loser that's how you stay on the hamster wheel forever and never get anywhere you want to go if you're going to pursue success in your life you have to decide you're going to be on a road that most people are not on and a lot comes with taking that road but the truth is the Journey To Success can be a very painful journey and you can feel

very alone and it's designed that way and so it often bothers me when I hear people say I need the support from my spouse or my friends or I've got haters or no one understands me or I'm getting all this rejection and negative feedback from people I've got haters that's the road you're on you're going to a place most people aren't going to go in their lives and so what comes with deciding to be great is all of those things the most helpful frame was thinking about who I was becoming as the asset that I

was building so in real time whenever I finished a Long Day's Work I was becoming more like the type of person who could work for five years without reward and that would be part of the story I would someday tell and some some of the biggest reinforces I've had in my life has been futurecasting the story that I would tell about the shitty period that I was in question for yourself what is impossible never accept the limitations of someone else somebody told you that it's impossible don't even try give up before you even fing try

it for yourself never accept the goddamn limitations that someone else has placed up on you decide for your [ __ ] self what is your limitation try it for your [ __ ] self then that is the only way the only [ __ ] way to know if you can or can't do something create your own self most people are missing something because they so much trapped in there there's so much in you that that you have not un unlocked God I feel like I'm missing something yeah because it's about 75% of you is still

[ __ ] in there still chained up because you just didn't want to find your willpower didn't want to find your soul your will your heart your determination your guts your courage what that looks like it looks scary this is the gap when we start this is the Gap as you grow notice how you grow and they don't so how do you close a gap you got to come back down when you come back down you lose so you got to keep going up that's why closing that Gap got to be them catching up to

you and if they don't catch up you got to leave them behind consistency doesn't mean Perfection it doesn't mean being hard on yourself when life interferes with your idea of being perfect consistency is getting back on track when life throws you off and not quitting when things get hard the definition of consistency doesn't mean Flawless it means staying on course for as long as possible knowing that falling off is almost guaranteed don't punish yourself for doing the best you can it doesn't have to be perfect you just have to keep going Talent is a pursued

interest in other words any anything that you're willing to practice you can do I think the best way to prove your your value is to work it's to learn it's to absorb to be a sponge you always want to outwork your potential you know as hard as you believe you can work you can work harder than [Music] that everything has stages of growth why in today's time are we forgetting that why are we forgetting that and expecting an immediate space of [Music] perfection it doesn't matter what challenges it is that you are facing there it

is the fundamental principle behind it that you do not run away that you are open for everything that is being thrown at you it is this type of mindset to also understand I didn't ask for Easy Life I take what comes if it leaves I let it pass you're exactly where you need to be in life all the confusion and frustration you feel is part of the journey don't worry about being behind or never finding your place in this world everything is already working for you behind the scenes all you need to do is stay

open to the opportunities let go of the outcome and stay grounded within yourself the rest will unfold exactly how it's supposed to [Music] what's impossible in your life go after that have that goals are important passion is important waking up in the morning and having an excitement about the day is important you're here not by choice you're led to this and I believe we all have a destiny we're all supposed to do something in our lives my favorite Court of all time by TS Elliott those willing to risk going too far can possibly find out

how far one can go notice that it says those willing to risk you have to risk failing you have to risk getting mocked you have to risk your safety and security if you want to find out how far you can go if you want to find out how many lives you can touch if you want to find out what it tastes like at the top you have to be willing to risk going too far and that's what's that's what's painful is that it takes more effort to start in the beginning and more people are right

about the fact they're like hey you're not going to hit it big and guess what a month in you're not but they're only measuring on months and at 6 months you're also not going to have hit a big yet and they're going to be like I'm still right and at a year you're still not going to hit it big and they'll still be fuing right and every day that you haven't hit it they're going to feel like they were right but they're wrong because they're measuring in days and you're measuring in decades to get anywhere

in life you have to work extremely hard and you have to be disciplined if you wanted to be a great piano player there's no drug you can take there's no self-help book there's no guru you got to spend 5 years 10 years learning it until it becomes something the second nature there are no shortcuts you see after a few years that an incredible pleasure happens where now you have Mastery of this piano and you can play things you could never play before suddenly the whole thing opens up this whole new universe and that's the Paradigm

for everything meaningful in life if you learn something well if you learn a craft and you master it it can bring you a far greater pleasure than any kind of drug or any kind of going out to a party or socializing but you have to be patient and you have to not be afraid of boredom you have to not be afraid of the effort you know there's something powerful that once you just sort of embrace the fact that an in order to achieve something big You' got to get rid of these distractions you're probably going

to have to have some suffering to get there or some sacrifice to get there suffering and sacrifice and hard work is an indication of progress towards our dreams the lack of sacrifice the lack of suffering in our lives its removal its non-existence also equates to a non-existence of a great life a non-existence of a dream happening when we're suffering and sacrificing we wonder whether it's worth it we wonder whether we're supposed to we wonder whether sacrifice or setbacks or suffering is a sign it's not our real dream see at the gym You' never think oh

I'm going through some pain and discomfort this must be a sign I shouldn't be at the gym you'd never think that in fact the indication of the pain and sacrifice and sweat don't you feel better at the gym you're like wow I really sacrificed today I really suffered so in that area we all know to the extent we suffer and sacrifices to the extent we grow don't get better automatically you only get better because you intentionally make a decision to get better you have to go from being a person of good intentions to a person

of good actions life doesn't happen to you we all think that life happens to me right in fact the only difference between most of you and me the only difference between me and you is I wanted it more I wanted it more opportunities will come to you every day it's either for you you can remain scared of the opportunities or you can embrace them and take them you need to push yourself past good good is not enough what are you going to do that's going to be different you understand what is different within you there

is something deeply different about you because a lot of the times our biggest obstacle is ourselves you are in your own way and it just takes a perspective shift to implement into our day and the next thing you know we're transforming I wish more people were more gentle with themselves and more forgiving you don't have a lot of people in life that are going to come and fight for you it bothers me to my core when I see people be negative on themselves be hard on themselves not be a fan of themselves if you're not

a fan of yourself then nobody's going to be a fan of you if you don't fight for yourself nobody's going to fight for you really bothers me the victim mentality that people have and if you can escape that victim mentality you can tap into the opposite side which is hope when you start stacking those winds with each win comes a higher price you have to pay a little you have to pay a little bit more some days you pay a little less some days you pay a little some days you pay a little bit more

when when winning is looking at you and it's saying this is what I need you to focus in on can you go all in on that or are you busy still kind of looking out of the out of the corner of your eye you can't do anything to the fullest extent to its best capabilities if you already thinking about something else or what are you thinking about next cuz if you wanted it bad enough you'd make it happen just shows your true desires otherwise something more important will always come up truth is it's on your

mind probably as ready as you'll ever be if you don't make time for your dreams you'll be forced to make time for your regrets fear is going to be a player in your lives but you get to decide how much you can spend your whole life imagining ghosts worrying about the pathway to the future but all there will ever be is what's happening here and the decisions we make In This Moment which are based in either love or fear don't stop don't dwell in the past because a lot of times when we dwell on mistakes

when we dwell on certain decisions we've made that already happen it keeps us there it keeps us stuck there and now we're taken away from this moment that we have right now this moment that we have to bring intention to this moment to bring gratitude to this moment to focus on taking the next right step instead of looking backwards and staying stuck in a place that we don't have anymore fast forward 20 years are you going to look back at your time and think I probably should have done anything if you know that in a

year you think you're going to say okay I probably should have been doing this more man I probably shouldn't have been doing this so much that is not a good feeling to [Music] have one thing that you need to realize is that you're a lot closer to your dreams than you think and it isn't because you're one step away it's because the person in the dream is you it's just a version of you that's not yet come to life the last attitude is how you feel about yourself nothing more powerful than self-esteem which creates self-confidence

the greatest steps towards success com from self-confidence and that comes from self-esteem doing what you know you should so that the end of the day you have high high self-esteem being yourself creates confidence because the more that you pretend to be somebody that you're not the more self out the more fear and paralysis that you're going to feel and I am here to tell you confidence is waiting for you to show up confidence is the willingness to try I want you to try more I want you to be brave because every time you start to

show up as yourself the confidence is going to build it's not a personality trait it is a skill this is fantastic news because if it's a skill it means you can practice the skill and you can build confidence because every time you try you become more confident in who you're becoming even when you're full of doubt if you move ahead and you do it anyway you are building confidence and that's the truth about life it's that simple you need to become your dream you need to become that future version of you every single day through

your daily habits through your disciplines by following your mission and your purpose as soon as you align to your purpose every day undeniably you'll start to see the doors that are closed in front of you open and you feel it inside of your chest every single day stop ignoring it and pick up the phone you can move through life at seven times the rate of other people by simply changing when you say you're going to make a decision from end of week to end of day four decisions that you needed to make if the normal

person takes a week to make the decision and then their mind moves on to the next thing that they have anxiety for decided another week decideed another week it's a month to make those four decisions whereas the the Superman takes one decision day one second decision day two third decision day three fourth decision day four they aren't even finished the week yet and they're where the other person is at the end of the month that speed of decision- making like not paying the attention cost the opportunity cost of your time I think it's really profound

in terms of how quickly people move through life you can't wait for nobody else to fix you you can't wait for nobody else to mature you can't wait for nobody else to get to that part in their life where they come you can't wait I got great things in store for you all I'm asking you to do is let this go so I can give you everything you've ever want so I can put you where you always want to be so I can put you where I ordain you to be son I gave you a

gift I can't I can't but I can't play like you play humans play I don't play we got to stop all this talking and we got to start doing because when we do people want to follow you when it seemed like it's working the most important question you ask is what pain do you want in your life what are you willing to struggle for anything worthwhile is going to require some degree of pain and struggle so if you're oriented toward the pain and the struggle you're probably going to be more aligned with what you're capable

of accomplishing rather than if you just Orient toward the pleasures we say find the thing which you enjoy the most but really what you're finding is what is the pain you're prepared to swallow the most nothing worthwhile is going to come without discomfort let's say you're in the hospital bed and you're getting ready to die and somebody walks in the room and you don't know them they don't know you and you have one copy of your book and it's sitting right there on the table and you're taking your last breath and you're talking to this

person you say to them I want you to read this book as you're dying think about this that book that you just wrote that woman man whatever reading that book would it changed your life forever and if it's not changing your life forever you have to rewrite your book The Power of right now and having one more moment and one more minute is so beautiful it's so blessed it's so big it's so amazing why would we spend that minute in history why would we spend that minute in the past when we could be fully present

in creating a future and so you know I think most people think Jay everyone else is going to die I think they just they just I'm never I'm not going to die or they go I'll get around to being happy I'll get around to making my masterpiece of my life I'll get around to my dreams I'm going to get around to fixing this relationship that's broken I'm going to get around to feeling those emotions and then it's another day and another day and they keep it in the distance until there are no more days and

I don't care if you're 18 years old listening to this 28 or 48 we don't know if we have one more day or 100 more days or a th more days but we know this there'll eventually be a time where we don't have any more days and so why would we spend the ones that are coming looking at the past don't focus on the past it's gone you'll never get it back don't worry about the future it's not here yet you have to learn to live in this present moment and figure out a way to

make it beautiful and remember that the purpose of your life is nothing else other than to learn to enjoy the passage of time so here's the good news you aren't going backwards and you probably never will be you can't undo your progress or unlearn things that took you so long to figure out failure mistakes and wrong decisions are all still progress because even if you don't succeed immediately you still learn a lesson and if necessary you learn it again whichever one it is no matter how much it hurts you're still moving forward no matter what

is happened to you till now you will use the experience of Life only to upgrade your life not to degrade your life whatever is passed whether it is the previous moment or many years ago whatever is passed is dead it has no influence on on our lives it is only the way we react to it if you take this vow to respond to your past to see how the experience of life is turned into wisdom and not into your wound within [Music] [Music] you half the year is gone What stages in your life in your

goals are you closer to at this point in the year and which are you stuck in that are exactly the same and what do you have to do to change [Music] that consuming our mind every single day with worries my friend is a disservice to your energy to your gift to your potential to your mission to yourself because all that energy your mind has the ideas that could flow to you the solutions it's a missed opportunity because you're swimming and worries why worry that much but this is a practice we often forget that developing a

positive mind we don't just have a positive mind some of us are hardwired a little bit differently yes but it's a practice it's something we do every single day we wake up and we look and we place meaning into life we don't wait for meaning to come to us like the wind no we place meaning with intention into the things that we do you're only excited about the outcome of something and not the process of doing it you shouldn't do it because the outcome is uncertain so you have to really enjoy who you're becoming what

you're learning what you're getting out of it not just the actual outcome of making money or selling your business you losing and you're not losing cuz you're a loser you losing because you focusing on losing that's all you focused on what do they think believe in you if you don't believe in you and you losing and you losing because you're overthinking everything you do cuz you got to get there prove or to do it so I need you to start doing what winners do winners focus on winning winners focus on scoring winners focus on dominate

winners focus on showing up winners don't care what losers think about them and winners don't care what other winners think about them all they care about is winning so do me a favor you a winner start saying what you know and what you understand and I promise you if you start focusing on winner you going to win losers lose and winners win it's time for you to win here was the best promise my mentor ever gave me he said Mr on if you will change everything will change for you wow I took that to heart

and sure enough the more I changed for the better the more I changed from having a poor Day to a good day from lack of discipline to discipline everything changed that thing that's hard to do discourages a whole bunch of other all by itself cuz the person who's willing to to to suff the longest wins and so we choose things that are incredibly hard to do and you've heard me say pain and suffering a lot and and it's actually a positive attribute people who can suffer are the ultimately the ones that are the most [Music]

successful I don't know what your future is but 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 whatever you choose for a career path remember the struggles along the way are only meant to shape you for your purpose secret of the age is that you have the power to do more than you can ever begin to imagine don't underestimate yourself you don't know enough about

yourself to become a cynic and so you've got to challenge yourself to access that power that you have within you you're more than a conqueror you can hope you can wish you can dream you can say you're going to but the reality is until you start stacking winds day by day by day by day nothing's going to happen the game is played one day at a time and if you have the capacity to wake up today go through the entire day do everything you're supposed to do and execute on those for one day that means

you can do it again the next day and that means you can do it again the next day you have exactly what's required to win at the highest level you could ever possibly win at it's about stacking wins in a cumulative fashion over the course of time and when you do that winning is undeniable you need to make it a habit to start everying day validating yourself cheering for yourself because life is a marathon and this might be a challenging leg where you're like I'm just going to throw in the towel I'm not going to

do that thing hell no if you're standing in front of that mirror you deserve deserve to feel the support and empowerment and encouragement that you need you are doing so much every single day that you don't give yourself credit for a lot of folk won't let you forget what you used to do or what you have done what mistakes you've made all of us have made some mistakes in life all of us have done some things that if we had them to do over again we wouldn't do it again a lot of things that if

I had it to do over again if I knew then what I know now I would have done it different ly well it didn't happen that way oh you don't want me to live that down how you want to keep on putting that in my face about what I did guess what I'm not interested that's what I did then won't do it today so you are picking on an innocent man the thing that's so interesting about being alive is that you're all in no matter what you do you're all in this is going to kill

you so I think you might as well play the most magnificent game you can while you're waiting you have to start living your life in expect ation you have got to start expecting great things to happen for you in order for it to happen if you live your life in expectations that's what happens to you if you live your life in despair that's what happens to you I'll never be rich you won't you won't the moment you change the frequency that your Tower emits different things come back to you you have this kind of convoluted

limiting belief about why you can't do something right now that's this your own BS story you keep telling yourself how about you just drop that story how about you just decide it's a lie every day some of us are killing ourselves with the shame we carry from something we've done some humiliation some fear we put this gun to our head every day that tells us we're not enough we're not strong enough pretty enough smart enough you do it over and over and over again and There's A Better Way Forward you can put those things down

in your life you could decide today that you were born to do something great you could set aside this weapon that you keep using against yourself to hold you back from your joy from your passion from your achievement from all the goodies in life you could decide today just intentionally to set this weapon down whatever it is I've looked in the mirror every morning and ask myself if today were the last day of my life would I want to do what I am about to do do today and whenever the answer has been no for

too many days in a row I know I need to change something remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the Trap of thinking you have something to lose there is no reason not to follow your heart [Music]
