listen bro I preach rest all the time I think rest is very important I think it's vital to the Grind without rest you can't be as productive as you want to be but it really really uh it irks me a little bit once I started to think deeper why do people who never told you to speed up always tell you to slow down you know when you start to actually change your life around and you want to make your life better here goes all the people saying okay why are you tracking your meals why are
you working now 5 6 days a week why are you getting 10,000 steps that's a lot what are you doing you know why are you so locked in and it's like it's either you understand that I've been slowing down my whole life and I'm finally speeding up I'm finally putting in the effort that I need to put in or you don't like I'm going this hard because I was never going hard before nobody told me that I was slowing down nobody told me that I wasn't putting in maximum effort nobody told me to speed up
so I had to tell myself that and when I tell myself that and I start to elevate and I start to grow and I start to get better and I start to you know be the best version of myself everyone's telling me to slow down that's when everybody want to come and tell me to slow down that's when everybody got something to say that's when everybody's commenting on your life that's when everybody's judging you know the things that you got going on that's when everybody's ridiculing you for taking life too serious but when I was
slowing down nobody said nothing they only saying they only they never told me to speed up they only telling me to slow down now cuz I'm up yeah bro let's let's talk about that let's talk about that right right why why does everybody have something to say when you start your self-improvement journey when you start to elevate when you start to get better you know everybody got something to say about that bro right but you know when you were sitting on your behind you know when you was in your living room when you was on
your couch bro um when you weren't giving life your all who who was there to really tell you to speed up who was there to tell you that you needed to change your life when you was eating the pizza and you was eating the burgers and you were doing the things that you were not supposed to do you weren't going to the gym you weren't consistent right who was really there to tell you to elevate your life now for some of y'all maybe most of y'all I was the consistent Force dropping videos every day saying
hey we got to get one % better every day right and that's why I do what I do because I just know the psychology of people people don't want to see people grow people don't want to see people win people don't want to see people evolve they want you to be in the same position that they're in cuz they're not ready to take life serious they're not ready to be consistent they can't hang with you so they going to judge you once you start to elevate they going to judge you once you start to go
after your goals and dreams take a risk believ in yourself they going to they going to judge you for that they going to judge you when you start to say you know what it's time time for me to elevate it's time for me to self-improve they going to judge you why do they do that why do they always tell you to slow down they judging you in their mind but on the outside what comes out is hey bro you going too fast hey bro slow down you going to pass me you know hey bro slow
down some you going crazy slow down bro hey bro take a break bro and it's like I've been taking a break my whole life I've been resting my whole life it's time for me to actually pour in the meat it's time for me to actually lock in my life it's time for me to actually be the best version of myself it's time for me to actually go hard why can't you be there for me why can't you help motivate me why can't you maybe join me since you got a lot to say but this is
how people act they going to judge you for your life they going to judge you for what you do but they not going to really help you they not going to really inspire you they not going to really motivate you to keep it going they just going to tell you to slow down it's one of the most common things that happen once people start their self-improvement Journey hey why you taking 10 th000 steps why you in the gym every day why you going so hard and it's cuz like I'm taking life serious why aren't you
we still got time for rest we still got time to relax you know it my Purpose Driven family y'all know it we believe in rest days we believe in days of you know resting Sabbath chilling that's cool but um we got to put this work in cuz God gave us a heartbeat and we don't want to waste it once we recognize that we're going hard but everybody wants to judge you saying oh you going too hard you going too hard and and there's something called care right where it's like hey I see you I see
the work that you put in make sure you taking care of yourself that's cool that's different but when it's people like they not saying that I see you they not seeing what you doing it for you see what I'm saying they don't know what you doing it for and they just telling you to slow down it's like hey bro I don't like that I don't like that cuz you never told me to speed up when I was sitting down and my life looked like crap you ain't telling me to speed up you ain't telling me
to hey bro get your life [Music] together so why is it that the same people that never told us to speed up and get our life together why are they the ones telling us that we need to slow down why are they the ones telling us that we need to slow down they never told us that we needed to speed up they never told us that we needed to get our life together but they're the ones that's trying to tell us to slow down why the truth is is because they don't want us to pass
them they see it as a competition but I see it as a community it's a it's a it's a it's a effort it's a collective effort I get better you get better we all get better right I'm doing great you doing great we all doing great when you do better we all do better it's a collective effort but instead people want to turn it into competition and the same people that's turning it into comp competition they're not even going to the gym they're not even putting in work it ain't even friendly competition they want you
out the game totally they want you to stop they want you to stay at home they want you to stay in the same rut they want you to have the same habits they want you to live the same ugly Lifestyles that never really helped you that never really pushed you on the path to success they want you to stay there they want you to stay down they don't want you to give life all hey I can't be around that I'm sorry get out of here with that I can't be around that I need to be
around people that want to see me win cuz I want to see people win so again they going to tell you slow down hey slow down bro you moving too fast bro slow down that ain't no friend that's not love that's not real that's my opinion that's not real you know real people they going to say hey I see you bro don't forget to take little breaks but I see you keep being on your purpose keep keep giving life your all it will pay off don't forget to take care of your mental health when you
get the chance each and every day carve out time but I see you n it ain't none of that you know what it is hey bro slow down hey bro why you going so hard hey bro why you always at the gym hey bro hey bro this and hey bro that right hey bro why you eating so healthy hey bro why you don't eat carbs like that right hey bro why you ain't at this party with us bro you think you better than us bro see turning it into competition ain't nobody said nothing about being
better than nobody I just want to lock in why it's so hard to lock in right why people can't just help me lock in instead you want to judge me for locking in I'm so locked in I'm walking backwards shooting the whole video right now camera in my hand I'm locked in can't nobody catch me off my grind I'm locked in locked in like that it's the only way to success you got to just be locked in we so locked in and then they going to ask you hey bro why you walking backwards bro you
know hey bro slow down right right I'm poking fun man but um I hope y'all doing good man I hope y'all doing good I hope y'all continue to uh be on your grind be on your purpose you know do the things that matter in this life you know life is not long bro um there's Seasons where it may feel longer there's Seasons where it feels shorter but we know how the story going to end we all going to die and uh the truth is we just got to make the most of it and we got
to write a beautiful story um you know I love each and every one of y'all I want to see y'all win I want to see your goals come true and I'm not going to tell you to speed up I'm not going to tell you to slow down I'm going to just tell you to pace yourself pace yourself that's what I wish we would here right I'm G tell you to pace yourself um you know jog at the limit that works for you walk at the limit that works for you right walk backwards at the rate
that works for you do what works for you just be consistent brother be consistent family be consistent for the Sisters watching this right please be consistent um always live life giving it your all you never know when it's your last day you never know when it's your last chance we got to go hard we got to focus we got to lock in that's what God wants us to do that's what our future self wants us to do um that's what life is about it's about locking in giving it our allwe and taking it to the
next level and um you know when people are telling you to slow down you got to ask yourself do they really want the best for me or do they want to see me be a shell of myself to be the old me to be the version of me that was not taking his health serious was not taking life serious was not taking his relationship with God serious so now they're going to start asking you why you praying bro you know why you praying so much you know me personally I pray in the morning I thank
God for a new day I pray before I eat my breakfast I pray before I eat lunch and I pray before I eat dinner some days I don't eat lunch you know some days it might be two meals and then of course you know I pray before I go to sleep you know these things are important to me um and before I go to sleep that's when I I get on my knees and I pray and I just say thank you God for a brand new day thank you to the Creator um and thank you
for allowing me to co-create this life with you right you you give me the freedom to make the videos that I want to make um that serves you you you're helping me help people you you know you give me life and I and I run with it you open a door and I walk through it thank you for allowing me to co-create this life with you how beautiful is that um you think I want to co-create mediocrity with God you think I want to sit on the couch and be the worst version of myself when
God knows that I could be the best version of myself you know um I could be even better right now you know there's things that I could do right now in my life there's things that I could be more consistent in there's always ways for us to get better I'm just man enough to admit it are you um and let's get better in those ways right so again I love you you know I appreciate you for your support I appreciate you for watching um make sure you have the right people around you remember man the
people who tell you to slow down think about it were they the same ones that told you to speed up if they were that's a great friend that's a great friend if they weren't that's up to you to use discernment and figure out discernment just meaning does this belong does this not you know fish it out scope it out and see weave it out and see does it make sense for this particular person to be in my life you know and again this is very different from somebody checking up on you this is very different
from somebody caring about your health caring about your mental this is very different this is for people who have people in their lives who haven't grinded haven't put the work in they don't believe in themselves so you can't expect them to believe in you it's that type of stuff um it's that type of stuff so man I hope this video could help somebody I hope it was impactful U most importantly I just hope you got some sort of value out of it so I'm going let you go now I'm going to let you be on
your purpose on your grind I'm grateful for your attention I know attention spans nowadays are not the same that it used to be the fact that you sit down and listen to a 10-minute video you know most videos are 20 minutes and over um but just the fact that you can listen to a 10 plus minute video hey thank you you know seriously thank you for your attention that's one of your most valuable things that you have is your time because your time is literally the life that you live and your attention to me is
the second most important thing what you put your attention on and what you focus on those are two important things and you gave me your time and you gave me your attention and that's why I do my best every day to give you the best value that I can all right I love you let's stay Purpose Driven peace out
