[Music] now it's time to create a legacy now you had your fun now get your work cuz if you sit down you're not going to get back up no excuses get back to fuing work it's time to get back to work but when when you really want something you want to get it there's no excuses no excuses is in everything you eliminate that everything changes you Embrace accountability and it's game over in life I had to harder than they did this is what I'm going to do and this is what I'm willing to do and
I will always outwork you because I love the game more than the stuff they may be more talented they may be smarter but they won't outwork me but I just work harder so after the game was I'm like hey coob like why why were you in the gym for so long he's like cuz I saw you come in and I and I wanted you to know that it doesn't matter how hard you work that I'm willing to work harder than you I will outwork you I I will make it possible the real man says like
I'm not going to make no excuses I'm not going to point the finger and say Louis you didn't do this you didn't do that I'm going to take full ownership full responsibility biggest problem that you have had is not that you don't have resources it's not that you don't have supporters it's not that somebody doesn't believe in you it's that you have not believed in you get your head in the game stop sleeping on yourself cuz if you do that if you actually work as hard as you can you have no excuses you have to
accept that all your excuses are lies you're too tired or you're too sore or you're just plain not feeling it and it doesn't stop if you don't make it stop I want you to spend all your energy on overcoming your weaknesses because behind every weakness you overcome is another level of success whatever that goal is whatever that insurmountable has been whether it's weight loss Financial mindset relational I don't care what it is career to be a CEO or an investor whatever it is get it done this is not the year you sleeping yourself every year
you have not gotten it done it's because you're sleeping on yourself wake up wake up wake up wake up I still have to fight every day so there's no excuse there is no reason there is no if hands or butts what will it take for you to make it [Music] happen you know you got to take ownership of what's going on in your life when you're not where you want to be and you say it's because the boss doesn't like you or it's because the girl treated you this way or the guy did this like
all those things you got to take ownership of them and if you're blaming all these other external things you're not going to make any changes and that's going to be a problem it's then that's the problem too if you're chronically rejected by people it's often because of your own insufficiencies you know whether that's cowardice or lack of social skills or whatever it is it's like you can't just brush it off as oh well you know no one likes me but really I'm okay it's like no no wrong if everyone rejects you there's probably something wrong
and it's probably deep and difficult and it's going to be horrible to fix and so this this isn't a trivial problem it's not a trivial problem at all Todd I'm sorry all right I screwed up I I know I screwed up I don't know why of course here comes you can't keep doing this you can't keep doing shitty things and then feel bad about yourself like that makes it okay you need to be better but yet you're fully committed to sabotaging yourself and your career then you sitting back stressed out and depressed wondering why why
ain't things happening that's the answer I just gave it to you it's about as real as it gets the question is what are you going to do next week two weeks from now you're in your own way you are the reason your career is not on the next level nobody else but you when you don't have a true appreciation in acceptance for who you are and you allow yourself to be immobilized by fear what happens in the process is that you begin to abuse yourself you begin to sabotage your life you begin to sabotage your
dreams you begin to unconsciously work against yourself you become Your Own Worst Enemy so what do you do about that well you you begin to realize that your dream and your gifts have so much meaning and so much value for you till your hunger for them will begin to push you past the f your hunger to have them will give you a special drive you might be sitting there wondering if you're going to wake up tomorrow and do the thing you said you would but why on Earth would you wonder this thing you're so uncertain
about is literally you there's nothing in this world you have more control over than yourself but if you decide to wake up every day surrender that control to chance I guess you'll be stuck wondering forever this disconnect between you and you is unnecessary though the pattern of hoping you fill the role of a better you and disobeying that desire every time is completely in your hands is a recipe for no self-respect so there's some certainty within yourself that needs to be built that's not going to happen by accident if you look in the mirror and
you ask yourself what do you have to do to be successful I promise you your heart will tell you you've never looked at yourself in the mirror and said you let you down until you get to that point you let you die youve never you're not brave enough you want to put it on somebody else the reason why I'm not successful is because of my boss have you ever look at yourself in the mirror and say I'm not getting up on time I'm not going to work on time I'm not putting in 120% when I'm
at work I let me down you always want to blame other people you always want to you want to hold other people to the fire but you're not holding yourself to the fire you just say you give 50% you owe you an explanation you owe you an explanation you need to look at yourself in the mirror and say why are you only giving 50% what's wrong with you you need to put yourself on punishment you need to tell you no more TV no more snacks no more desserts no more no we working out now no
no more alcohol not right now not no I can't handle it right now you need to tell you that you owe you something this is you versus you most of us we live in a box and we don't want to go outside that box at all ever outside that box is all these possibilities of life but we do is we shackle our mind we are a prisoner in our own mind that this is all I can do this is all I'm good at and we we we take away the possibility you could be this you
could be that you can be all these things and I never thought at 300 lb I could be Nam SE wow so if my mind was Shackled me and you would never meet there'd be no book right there be no book right there' be nothing so what people understand is that they live for themselves not knowing that you have the power within yourself to change millions of lives by facing Life by facing yourself if you're struggling if you're frustrated with yourself if you're at that point where you're so sick of yourself and your excuses I've
been there Steven's been there this is a normal part of the human experience and at some point either the pain is going to get big enough or you're going to bump into somebody's story somewhere on this planet who has been in the position that you're in right now facing the stuff that you're facing right now and there is something about their story at this exact moment in time that will ignite something in you that is missing and what is missing in you right now is Hope if you you set your own value by what you
believe about yourself if you think that you're worthless if you're not very good at it other people pick that up it doesn't matter what lifestyle you have it doesn't matter matter what Walk of Life you have no matter what you do if you allow excuses to tell you what to do then ultimately the excuses have more control of you than what you have of yourself so get up work hard put some effort into what you want out of life because all you have is you all you have is what you have inside don't wait for
somebody to tell you what to do you know what you need to do get out there and get it done because that's ultimately what is going to take you have to have the courage the will and everything you have inside to get to the level and Beyond the level you want to be life does not stop until they put you on the ground my friend strong mind is a catalyst for change when you see the best athletes in the world either perform really well or on the other hand completely bomb out it's because of that
muscle that lives between the ears it's interesting to me that the comfortable route is seen as the safe this path but the undeniable disappointment that comes from giving up the ideals of the true self doesn't seem so safe to me don't indulge in the comfort that comes to before effort because that Comfort is nothing but a lie so what kinds of things what kinds of thoughts are you feeding your Consciousness what kind of things are you putting in your mind that will enable able you to either move forward or to justify why you're staying where
you are what really breaks my heart is how stuck people are and that there are things you can do to change your life for the better and if you don't have hope and you don't have this breakthrough where you have for just a millisecond this Insight where you go well what if things did work out if you don't have that moment most people stay so stuck in resignation so it's time to come face to face with pain look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself how much more can you take because what hurt you what
it what what tried to [ __ ] you and kill you only made you stronger you have the capacity to whatever comes up to handle it to face it and rather than feeling powerless you began to feel powerful my content creators my entrepreneurs my musicians come on my kyot speakers my captains of Industries my CEOs from the captain to the cashier there is more in you stay-at-home father stay-at-home mother lawyer doctor hygienist author I don't know who you are where you're from but there's more in you you may be hurting maybe dying on the inside
but you still got life left you wouldn't have suffered enough I've been suffering all my life I'm sorry it's not enough the amount of suffering that you understand the amount of pain that you've gone through makes you appreciate the happiness and the the Beautiful Moments with much more intensity you know what it's like to be poor and you know what it's like to work hard and you will want so much for them to like you and they just won't and it'll break your heart and that'll make your heart bigger and open your eyes and finally
you will realize that there's more to life than proving you're the smartest person in the world this whole thing about suffering yeah it sucks really bad uh really really bad but we all live on this side of suffering on this side this nice box that's very comfortable that we know when everything's going to happen we're in it it's good we know how everything's going to turn out it's those few people who are willing to go on the on this side of suffering and once they get through that ask him how he feels now his mind
how far he grew in that short period of time he grew so much more than the normal person cuz he was willing to go outside himself cuz on the other end of suffering is greatness we're built to walk uphill and when you reach the Pinnacle of the Hill you want to stop and appreciate the vision but the next thing you want is a higher Hill in the distance because it's the uphill climb that it's it's from the uphill climb that we derive our value and I mean this technically so almost all the positive emotion we
feel that's experienced in relationship to a goal and so in some sense you want a goal that you can never attain right so you can always move closer to the goal that recedes as you move towards it you think well that's frustrating it's like sifus pushing the rock uphill but it's not because as you pursue that goal you put yourself together and your life does get better and richer and more abundant you want them to be above everything you're doing so you can continually move towards something that's more Sublime and better that's what you are
you're you're here to live no not to not to sleep because you wouldn't have prayed like you pray had you not been hurt you wouldn't love like you love had you not been hurt because you know what it's like to hate somebody so you refuse to go down that path feelings has nothing to do with it um this is my dream this is what I'm going to do and I'm going to do the things that I don't feel like doing I'm going to do the things I don't want to do I'm going to do the
things that don't come easy to me that do not come natural to me I'm going to get up and do it you can't live your life on feelings you cannot let your feelings dictate what you are or are not going to do today don't get that fire inside but make it happen out there until you go to the fire in here leaving it all here expecting it all out there that's how it works when you leave it all here guys you then have the right you expect it all out there it doesn't work the other
way around you can't half ass it here and expect anything but a half ass life out there you know it doesn't get easy my friend running 12 plus miles a day doing 800 plus push today lifting weights every single day working two jobs working out of my comfort zone at the club but it's worth it because if you think it's about Fitness you're wrong if you think it's about the money you're wrong cuz it all goes back to one point one important point my friend I'm in it for the mentality the mentality to keep going
no matter what happens nothing should be easy if it's easy it's not going to be worth doing so many people love to have the opportunity to find the easy way out and celebrate something that they never really worked hard to get it gives you an opportunity to appreciate the challenges more the let Downs the failures it gives you more ammunition so when you do eventually get to where you want to be just in case that moment comes and you get knocked back down you understand what it feels like and you know you're not going to
stay down for very long because you know what that ground feels like his life is Relentless you better keep coming back from all your failures all your doubts all your [ __ ] you better keep fighting keep getting up never lay down for [ __ ] that's one thing we should all agree on if you've been broken once you know how that feels that means try and break me again one thing in life suffering has no expiration date it don't give a if you're black white poor Rich where you come from how you were raised
it will keep coming after you stay home it hurts when we lifting these weights and we're trying to accomplish a goal it hurts it's painful it's daunting it's combersome I don't want to do it I'm sweating I'm I'm bleeding I'm crying I'm suffering but after I've suffered there is a reward see we spend too much time thinking about about how bad it hurts instead of how good the future will be after the pain and so after the blood after the sweat after the tears after I've cried all I'm going to cry I want to use
the pain to my advantage at what age should you have everything together uh for us normal people uh it takes time cuz not only do you have to mature and grow there's things in life that if you have a big enough dream you're not the person you need to be right now to fulfill that dream now you keep moving towards it you keep doing what needs to be done but at the same time you realize that you yourself are gaining in knowledge and in experience and in personal growth do you still struggle with all of
the you spoke about oh my God like yes that's why I'm so [ __ ] relatable I do not have this stuff figured out I am shoulder toosh shoulder with everybody they look and see and then are quick to adjudge your ability but they weren't there they weren't there through the struggle they weren't there through the sleepless nights they weren't there through the pain they weren't there through the trauma they weren't there through the tears they weren't there to pick you up you did that so what gives them the right what gives them the right
to judge you they don't know your ability my friend they don't know what you're capable of they don't know what you can do so you find a way to push through you find a way to keep going because nobody can tell you anything when you're the one who dragged yourself out the dark when you're the one who dragged yourself back into the light my friend they have no p business in your business so you keep [Music] going we all going to go through it we all have to go through it including myself I'm going to
tell you something when you are doing everything in your power to be the best makeup of yourself it's always going to be an adversary that's going to try to take that away from you now the best way you can overcome this is having the faith now it doesn't matter what you believe in as long as it's something that's positive that's going to get you through it imagine if you could use pain as a fuel imagine if you could use the pain as a passport imagine if you could use the pain to push you to condition
you to prepare you for the stages and the rooms you got to walk into and the tables you've got to sit at and the stages you have to stand on what if the pain can make you better what if the pain could build muscle what if the pain can cause you to reach higher to LEAP farther to run faster what if the pain could help you what if all pain isn't hurt but it's help I'm sick right now my friends that can't stop and run in a world where everybody is so comfortable and lazy why
don't you even want to get uncomfortable why don't you be the one to take on the tall why don't you be the one to never give up why don't you be the one that never stop why don't you be the one that never be I want to introduce y'all to this very simple concept that if you want it you got to go get it some of y'all got this concept of what you want what you want to accomplish you know some of y'all are motivated by broke I'm broke I'm stuck I'm [ __ ] up
I can't do nothing other folks are motivated by materialistic things it's a very simple concept if you want it you got to go get it how bad do you want this if it's as bad as you want to live or breathe or sleep whatever the hell it may be I can work with you but a lot of people most people don't want it that badly which why they always ask the question man how did you get to where you are are you know how to do it you know exactly how to be you or how
to be me you don't want to do it you know there comes a day man everyone's going to have this day there comes a day where being average being mediocre is just sickening to you it's just sickening it makes you want to throw up because you've seen people with far less Talent than you as you're growing up with them their childhood buddies whatever else they didn't have what you had yet now now they're going to become something that you haven't there comes that day it's either when you're young you know and and it strikes you
on the baseball field cuz you're sick of striking out or it's it's when you get fired from your fifth job you know and your wife and kids are on your ass cuz they don't know how to support you anymore there comes a day where push comes to shove where being mediocre being like average and just burns it sucks so much you can't deal with it one more day and you get off your [ __ ] ass and you create something it's always been there it's always been inside of you trying to come out but you've
never wanted to unwrap it cuz it's too muching pain and commitment it's time to unwrap the potential you can be superior man it's within you I'm not talented it was life and death either you live or you die which one do you want Tom that was the decision in the corporate life and in the gym but if you want something bad enough if you want something bad enough you can't let anybody tell you you can't do something I'll repeat that if you want something bad enough you can't let anybody tell you you can't do something
not even yourself a lot of days I'm like oh you can't do this Tom you can't be as quick as a 30-year-old on the computer [ __ ] let me show you I mean I I would have arguments with myself I could do it people doubted me I doubt it myself sometimes too you know what I watched Arnold fall down nobody remembers when he fell down Arnold wasn't the glorified winner as he was in the first 70 through 75 he got up and become a famous film star he became Governor he kept getting up and
getting up that's what it takes to do anything successfully in life you got to want it as bad as you want to breathe and if you want it that bad if you're willing to give it that much you get a big piece of what you want and dreams do come true anything you want can happen and become a reality I believe that sincerely and I'll die on that thought I say I made a full commitment that I'm going to go and be a bodybuilding Champion I made a full commitment that I'm going to be in
America I made a full commitment that I'm going to get in the show business and I'm going to be a leading man no matter what it takes I will do the work I would do the work over and over and over until I get it and the same was in politics and everything like that so to me it is very dangerous to have a plan B because you're cutting yourself off from the chance of really succeeding one day I made a decision that enough is enough I'm tired of being average I'm tired I'm tired of
being good I'm tired I want to go to the dealership and buy the best car I want to move to the nicest neighborhood I want to fly first class I want to go to Hawaii I want to go to Australia I want I made a decision enough is enough it's showtime the hour is now for Game Changers to emerge out of obscurity and into Victory take the throne with everything that you have in you nobody cares where you started nobody's stopping you there's nobody that's got to take your resume there's no grades that matter none
of it what matters is are you willing to hustle and how bad do you want it Master the three W you got to want it you got to work it then you got to win it I know that's right now how bad do you want it a lot of times people tend to get very comfortable with themselves and they always celebrating the same victories over and over and over again but the moment they get uncomfortable or they find themselves in a new environment they either freeze up or they go back you got to be the
person that wants to go a little bit further in whatever it is that you're doing in your life remember as you live there is opportunity to be greater dreams are that moment where you pick your head up and you get really quiet and you tune in to what your mind body and spirit is telling you kind of aim that inner Compass out into the distance and you ask yourself where do I want to go like if you think about 5 or 10 years from now and and the easiest way for me to figure out that
is is who am I jealous of that usually shows up a lot faster than who am I inspired by because jealousy is just block desire you can't feel jealous of somebody unless you authentically want something for real that you think that they have and the jealousy happens because you have somewhere in your psyche told yourself you can't have it that if you want a thing bad enough to go out and fight for it to work day and night for it to give up your time your peace and you sleep for it if all that you
dream and scheme is about it and life seems useless and worthless without it and if you gladly sweat for it and fret for it and plan for it and lose all your Terror of the opposition for it and if you simply go after that thing that you want with all of your capacity strength and sagacity faith hope and conf confidence and Stern pertinacity if neither cold poverty famish or Gul sickness of pain of body and brain can keep you away from the thing that you want if dog it and Grim you besiege and beset it
with the help of God you'll get it the only thing you care about when you're trying to breathe is to get some fresh air that's it and when you get to the point where all you want to do is be successful as bad as you want to breathe then you'll be successful and I'm here to tell you number one that most of you say you want to be successful but you don't want it bad you just kind of want it you don't want it bad than you want a party you don't want it as much
as you want to be cool you most of you don't want success as much as you want to sleep some of you love sleep more than you love success and I'm here to tell you today if you're going to be successful you've got to be willing to give up sleep the hour is now I am your replacement I am coming for the throne I'm coming for every room that you locked me out of every realm that I step into I will dominate you cannot listen to the naysayers imagine you go from Studio executive to Studio
executive from agent to agent from manager to manager and they all said exactly the same thing now that's very encouraging isn't it but you know something I didn't give a [ __ ] I didn't because because I believe that I can be a leading man it doesn't matter how hard you work I'm willing to work harder than [Music] you I know every [ __ ] ain't going to do what I'm going to do that's how you level up stop being average when your potential is crying to come outside to be more than that no one
will outwork me no one it's so easy to be great nowadays my friend cuz most people are weak most people don't want to go to that extra mile most people don't want to find that extra cuz it sucks of course Talent without work is nothing you got to be hungry people that are hungry are willing to do the things today others won't do there's no excuse not to be the hardest mothering worker in the room you have to want it 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 edit 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 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 one and 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 trans listen 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 [Music] 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's 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 what 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 Pap 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 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 at the download of your life then what do you do you are either going to evolve 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 self as a different person you you don't know like like there is no there's no 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 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 estalon
of membrance a possibility where dreams exist Legacy exist the possibility of change it's within the grasp of his hand within the grasp 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 tasted the wheels 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 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] [Music]
