what's your why why do you wake up in the morning was that some of your best motivation might come wrapped in sandpaper some of your best inspiration comes with some pricks and some nails and some thorns around it some of your best inspiration came in an experience that you didn't ask for you didn't want and you'd never want to have again some of your best inspiration some of the very thing that's fueled your soul to get you here came in an experience that you dare not wish on your enemy the reason why you don't give
a hundred and twenty percent is you ain't got a why for what you do one thing i can't i can't give you ambition i can't make you want something right i can't want it for you but once you want something now you plug into something very real you start putting all this stuff together and it's like okay essentially everything falls on my shoulders if if i want to be great it's all down to me and whether i execute on that or not it's all down to my ability to say this is the thing i want
this is the gap and skill set between who i am today and who i need to become rather than accept personal accountability for why things didn't work out or or maybe a relationship didn't work out or or a job or whatever we often point the finger um and you'll see that it's very common in today's society i've even caught myself at some times when things didn't happen i'll maybe you want to mentally you know point the finger at someone else so this is why this didn't happen and i have to catch myself and and reassign
blame because the minute you're deflecting the minute you're you're redirecting someone else's direction all you've done is is mask an insecurity in yourself and you've taken a fear of the realization that the shortcomings lied with you and and tried to cover up like i told you that fear is like a it's like a burning fire a small fire and the minute that you refuse to address it all you're doing is you're putting wood on it you're pouring gasoline thoughts become things is such a small part of the picture it's actually a myth because it's your
feelings and your emotions are what manifests the universe is delivering your experience through how you feel it's not the the tesla on the vision board the idea of moving towards that i mean that's fantastic but it's the feeling the tesla will give you that feeling that drops down into your heart space and with that comes the emotional responsibility to guide your energy that you can rise above fear you can embrace love and you can remember your power and this is why it's so important that we don't push to the side however we're feeling and we
lean into the wholeness of our experience so when you blame somebody else or you make them responsible for how you're feeling then you're actually disowning your power you're handing over your energy to somebody else you really have to set your mind to acquiring a certain set of skills with all the efficiency in the world that you can acquire those skills first of all that anything is possible as long as you set your mind to it and that the most and this probably the most important lesson that i learned that what is working against you is
your own mind a good person will not take more from the table of life than they think they're worth or they think they deserve and so you have this governor on your identity so what happens is our it's like a thermostat our lives get going we start doing really well if we're a 75 degree and our life gets to 85 and 90 degrees unconsciously we go we don't know we're doing it we start to cool life back down to get it back to where we're comfortable the reverse is also true when things start to go
really bad and you're broke and you're struggling you find a way to heat your life back up to what you think you're worth that you deserve so the way we alter our life is sure we got to alter our behavior and our relationships and our circumstances but the only way it's permanent is that we alter that governor that thermostat we start to believe we're worth 85 degrees of life 95 degrees of life 110 degrees of life and there's ways we can alter that say are you willing to just jump because when you do and you're
willing to spread your wings and you're willing to do something and be something different and you're willing to get to the edge knowing you might fall but also knowing you might fly working out is not life to me it's not about the body it's completely about the mind when you're starting your day at 4 30 in the morning whatever do that the rest of your day no matter what happens is a breeze you've you've tackled the hardest part of your day no matter what goes on sometimes it's just showing up and being able to push
yourself a little bit more than yesterday it's called finding your heart you know when you find your heart every day man life is a lot better because what happens is you're either the ceo of your life or you're going to be someone else you're going to be life's employee [Music] and you access presence by bringing awareness to the present moment it's that power of now that's your most pivotal point of power that's your direct access to the universe at all times and the more present you can be the more you can release any other resistance
that is holding you back energetically from allowing your desires to flow into your reality is that you put yourself in circumstances that are demanding of you past what you think your capacity is and when you succeed at them you build a new water line you do you you throw yourself out there past where you're comfortable and you you do an 85 degrees behavior and you knock it out of the park your brain starts to believe it repetitiously when you start doing that you build a new line now you're 85 degrees that's number one the second
way though is association if you're around people whatever that endeavor is if it's a sport you're in or if it's a business or your faith or your peace if you begin to associate with people who live in that space at a higher temperature than you through association you get heated up take the setbacks and turn them into valuable information when you think within the growth mindset framework of developing your abilities over time in the framework of who you are all of us have unique things to contribute if we stick to what we're doing every day
if you wake up you don't take control of your day and you don't dominate the day as best you can start to finish life is going to own you you know if you're waking up with a negative attitude you have to be able to step back and self-assess why am i in a bad mood and you have to work from that minute forward to build that tool in your belt if you will to be able to assess it address it apply it if you will and then move forward if you can do that until life
gets exponentially easier and easier and easier every day before you know it you're working with greater efficiency more confidence more determination and you set yourself on a path to truly self-generate success but more importantly you're happy groundwork of beginning to build self-confidence is to begin to keep the promises you make to you and that's why it's important to begin to even make small problems you're going to get up at a certain time in the morning not only do it but then give yourself credit say i did what i said i was going do if you're
constantly being influenced and moved by what other people think about you it means there's a deficiency in what you think about you the number one addiction in the world today is the addiction to other people's approval and that's because we don't approve of ourselves you don't have to allow yourself to be a victim even if you've been victimized right like you can transcend that and you can look back and go what could i have done differently oh my gosh i could have done all these things awesome i'm now in control of it right because being
victimized is inevitable but being a victim that's a choice right it's like pain is inevitable suffering is a choice remember that you have this incredible power of presence within you then you empower yourself to create anything it is in your life that you desire [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] you
