everybody wants to be a beast what do you mean ET everybody wants to make their dreams become a reality there's no one sitting in this room who say ET I want to procrastinate ET I don't want to get it done ET I don't want to get to the next level ET no every person in this room not only do you want your dreams to become a reality you deserve for your dreams to become a reality so I'm going to build off of yesterday right and I realize ET as long as you're average you're going to
get where average people get now as I'm speaking you're not just hearing the words but as I'm speaking you are identifying who am I and why am I at where I am right now average there's some folks in this room your dreams are phenomenal the life that you have for yourself is phenomenal in your dreams your bank account is phenomenal the things that you do the way that you live what you have is phenomenal but you as an individual you're average you as an individual you're good you as an individual You're great and what I'm
challenging you to do is to go from average to good from good to great and from great to phenomenal that's why I need you to do me a huge favor and keep your dreams phenomenal keep your vision phenomenal keep it phenomenal and now I need you to get your weight up as an individual I need you to get your schedule up I need you to get your life up I need you to get your words up I need you to get your heart up I need you to get your action up I need you to
get to a place that every single thing that you do is phenomenal so that the life you want to live you can actually live that life every single person that I've ever come across I've never heard anybody say ET my goal is to be a loser ET my my goal is to always come up short ET I've dreamed of being in second place my entire life ET I want to be a failure ET I want to dream it but but but not live it never met that person before everybody wants to be a beast everybody
wants to be number one everybody wants to be the best everybody wants to succeed everybody wants to have to be and do what they feel they've been called to do the challenge becomes that most of us when it's time to do what Beast do we don't do it 3:00 in the morning every day 3:00 in the morning and so there's some days when I wake up just woke up recently and it was 2:45 I looked at the clock and I said look between me and you we got an agreement it's 3:00 it's 2:45 right now
I listen to me very close technically technically I have 15 minutes technically I have 15 more minutes I I never told the world that I wake up at 2:45 ever right but never I've never said that I I I I make a VI to get up at 245 but when I looked at the clock the clock said 245 and the average person in me said ET just pull the covers back over here it's okay got 15 minutes the phenomenal of me said ET if you go back to sleep for those 15 minutes there's no guarantee
you going to get up to 3:00 you go back to sleep right now you might wake up in it's 4:00 you might wake up in it's 5:00 you might wake up in it's 6:00 all you have is right now are those 15 minutes that sweet that you're going to push back your dream that you're going to push back your goal everything you've ever wanted son you're right there and I'm looking at the 245 and I'm saying ET you're so close you're closer than you've ever been before you have to do me a favor those 15
minutes are not worth the rest of your life those 15 minutes are not worth you slipping down the chart the that is not worth it because you wake up at 3:30 some other kids getting up at 3: and he's got 30 30 minutes on youday so I need you to do me a huge favor I need you to do me a huge favor I need you not only to want to be a beast when you leave this place huge favor ET is asking you of one thing when you leave this place I need you to
get in beast mode and stay in Beast mod I need you to put on beast mode I need you to live in beast mode because if you live in beast mode you'll have what other people don't have listen to me very closely not only will you have what other people don't have you'll do what other people can't do so you got to do me a huge favor guys come on and hear me everybody's got a dream everybody's got a goal everybody wants something in life but many of you in this room right now your Beast
mod is Idle your Beast mod is not turned on and when you leave this place I'm telling you your life is going to go to a whole another level if you can learn to turn that switch on and keep that switch on there going to be so many people that haters so many people that come up against you so many obstacles so many trials so many tribulations when people ask me ET like for real for real E I know you can give me 20 things that you've done to help yourself to become successful but ET
I just need like one or two can you give me one or two and one of the things I tell people is I outlasted the pain I outlasted the pain when I was sleeping in those abandon buildings I kept telling myself one day you'll be a homeowner every time I walked into to that abandoned building I told myself that this might be your current circumstances but this will not be how the story ends all you have to do ET is to survive today to survive today when they kick me out of school I knew that
I would not be a high school dropout for the rest of my life I knew I got to get through this one day and so every single day when I wake up homeless one day every single day when I woke up and had a abandoned building one day one day is going to be et's day but that day can't come if I give up today so every single day when I woke up I kept telling myself today might not be the day but soon it will be my day and I will recycle my pain I
turn homelessness into a book I turn my father not being in my life to a book I turn in a strain relationship with my mom into a book I turn being homeless into a book I turn being a high school dropout into a bestseller and not only do they sell it in America they sell it across the world what will you do with your pain will you let it break you or will you let it redefine I made a decision I didn't go to the doctor and get surgery and get a new brain and get
a new heart I I didn't pay any money to get like an upgrade I didn't get Eric Thomas 5.0 I was the same guy then what happened e how do you have almost a PhD how do you have a million multi-million dollar company how are you traveling across the world how are you competing with a Tony robits when you come from nothing 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
