nothing changes if nothing changes man in order for something to change there needs to be change they say well I'm afraid to make a change and I'd say that's okay that's understandable how afraid are you of not making a change let's make a little vision of that you're 35 you hate your job what's the consequence you're not motivated you don't want to get out of bed in the morning you're starting to get depressed you're getting bitter you're getting resentful you're getting cynical you're amotivated at work you're not doing a very good job and you're starting
to shrink now play that out for 10 years you don't change it you don't fix it and what happens you're going to be in the same situation but 10 years older and if you can't get out of that situation now what the hell makes you think you're going to get out of it in 10 years you're only seeing what's in front of you you're not seeing what's above you I can't change the beginning but could I change the middle could I change can I addit that story rewrite that story and change my entire life everybody's
so crippled by decisions but you never know how the other thing worked out let me give you an example let's say you don't go to college and you start this business business and you were 100% right and it's huge and you're doing so great but because you did that you had to fly to America for a big meeting and your plane crashed and you died that would be a bad idea yeah or you think you're going to go to college cuz it's a good experience and you'll meet people you can meet people in a business
you're not going to know I think people overthink decisions you'll never know what the alternative would have been so just pick want to do it change is inevitable and you are either changing for the worse or changing for the better you decide I hope I do not believe in you more than you believe in yourself that's right now listen to me guys the transition is going to be hard I'm not going to lie to you go from being on the Block going to be a high school dropout to getting a GED is not the transition
is not easy so what happens in order for you to go from one level to the next level in order for any man to Transit let's to me 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 listen to me very closely I didn't come in here to tell you you going to finish school I came to ask you what's next I came to ask you what's next for me it's the Nobel Prize yeah I always think about other people
that's going through a tougher life than I am what if I had to change places would I trade places you know there something I would always say to people from time to time if I could take out a piece of paper and write down my problems and you could take out a piece of paper and write down your problems and we exchange those papers and I'm thinking I got such a tough tough life and you may have a tough life but I pick up your paper the one you may have written on and I'm looking
like wow I thought I had it bad and then the other person say hey you got it a lot better than I do you know what I would do I would say give me me a p give me my paper back I'll take my problems back the point that I'm saying is this I didn't put myself in such a pity party position to where I felt why me why not me why shouldn't I go through this see you have to know and I believe this even more that can never never be anything good unless there's
some bad along the way there has to be a challenge there has to be a struggle there has to be some setbacks you cannot think in your mind that that's all you good for is the good things how good are you when you're at your weakest point in your life where are you when you're at the download of your life then what do you do you are either going to evolve or or expire see everything changes the economy changes relationships changes we change mentally and emotionally and physically and you are either dying or you are
either living how am I a different person than I was this morning when I woke up the initial reaction would be I'm not it's only been like 12 hours how could I be different but if I really think about it what do I now know that I didn't know before um what you know what experiences have I had that my prior self hadn't had when I had just woken up and if I actually think about it just like gratitude I'm creating the frame of my past I actually can and do see that I am different
than my past self even 12 13 hours ago or the night before and by appreciating that I now acknowledge that I've changed which increases my psychological flexibility it allows me to see that I am not the same person that I am growing that I am evolving which is really useful for then thinking of your future yourself as a different person you you don't know like like there is no there's no time machine there's no future machine we're all overanalyzing everything like how do you know you don't like this is why I keep trying to push
people the only thing that I know seems practical is are you happy are you happy today feels like it's the right thing are you like this is important it's you you can't analyze like I didn't know that starting a YouTube show for my wine business was going to be the reason that I was going to have a huge investing career I couldn't see that this 30 seconds is your life passing you by an opportunity to change it's your prerogative you want to go down the path you have right now of your life and where it's
going would you see an alternate path that's not Flatline but climbing up an esteron of membrance a possibility where dreams exist Legacy exist the possibility of change so begin to grasp these hand in the CFT of 30 seconds it's within you you had the will you're here I know you had the will you have the intestinal fortitude you have the want of change you only live once so do what you feel passionate about take chances don't be afraid to fail how do you know true strength when you never tast the WIS when you never was
down on your luck when you were at the bottom I had to ask for something and I realize you got to go through this hell man this is it cuz as long as you living you got to keep moving it all starts with a thought but changing your thoughts is easy it's free can be instant what's the point of making it complicated how does that help anyone who says well I'm messed up and so hard to change and people can't change it's like well that's not correct who taught you that you from the minute you're
born you're changing oh you know it's it's long and arduous to recover no it isn't some people recover like that some people don't but you could be one of the ones that changes your thoughts changes your feelings changes your actions after all when do you experience the positive emotion that's associated with happiness the answer is not when you've attained a goal but when you're pursuing one don't you realize excuses will kill you it will destroy your well-being and the more excuses you make the less effort you're going to give there's a million things I've done
wrong it's cuz I didn't do something that would have sent me somewhere else but I have no idea you don't know you don't if you do not apply what you hear and it goes over your head you will miss your moment nothing changes if nothing changes man [Music]
