want because they don’t know every step
they have to take to get there you just
have to know the first step to take and
when you take that step you’re going to
find that your conditions your
circumstance and environment will change
then you see how you have to make the
next step it’s a matter of adapting all
the time you only have to know two
things you have to know where you’re
going and you have to know that you’re
going to get there you’ve got to see it
in your mind this is what it’s all about
what’s the next step that’s all you
really have to know one step at a time
Henry Ford once said the biggest goal in
the world can be achieved if you just
break it down into another small steps
some people ask the question how do you
eat an elephant and the answer of course
is one bite at a time but you’ve got to
divide it into bites if you’re bored
with life
get up every morning with a burning
desire to do things you don’t have
enough for if you have a goal but you
really don’t have a big
underline big reason why you want to
achieve it you simply will not have the
deeper motivational Drive that your
brain requires to keep you motivated and
help you overcome the doubts or the
fears or the anxieties the ups and downs
of challenges that are gonna come your
the number one success trait of highly
successful people is not that they start
a lot of things if that they finish the
by our very nature we are both seeking
creatures your brain is always trying to
align your outer world with what you are
seeing and expecting in your inner world
what you instruct your brain to look for
things you want you will begin to see
them in fact the object of your desire
has probably always existed all around
you but your mind and your eyes weren’t
open to it you only really accede here
more experience those who focus your
mind up so when you define your goals
you give your brain something to focus
on and look for you give your mind a new
set of eyes so all of a sudden see all
the people circumstances conversations
resources ideas creativity and otherwise
so it can go about matching up on the
outside with what you want on the inside
I believe in self maximization I think
you should do everything that you can to
be the best person that you can during
your limited time on this earth every
day in every way and on every plane you
should give your very best you should be
the best that you can be you should not
have down days when you are creator you
will discover the thing that you want
wants you you would never have a desire
for something unless you already had the
capacity to make it happen you see it’s
very liberating when you finally realize
that you have the power to make your
life whatever you want it to be
it’s a wonderful feeling knowing that
your success does not really depend on
anyone else our intention is everything
nothing happens on this planet without
it not one single thing has ever been
accomplished without intention one of
the key and critical elements of goal
achievement is getting your brain to
figure out how you can achieve something
that you’ve never achieved before and
the bigger your vision is the more
you’re gonna get your brain to work for
you the more clear your vision is the
easier it’s gonna be to block out all
the things that you don’t need and now
create all the things and find all the
things that you do need in order to
achieve those goals
so often when you’re setting a goal
without realizing it unconsciously
you’re injecting the values and
sometimes the fantasies and the ideals
of other people and when you’re setting
a goal you’ll hear in the back of your
mind I should do this I ought to do this
I’m supposed to do this I need to do
this got to do this I have to do this
must do this and this is an inner
language and called imperatives and
these imperatives let you know that the
goals are setting or the expectations
you put on yourself are not really from
your own heart not really from your own
highest values not
what’s most important not most important
to you anything it is so important when
you set a goal to know what your highest
values know what’s really most important
most meaningful to you and set of goals
that are aligned and congruent with that
when you do and it’s truly congruent
you’ll have a different feeling
you won’t hear those voices of
imperatives you’ll hear the indicative
you go I love it
I’m inspired by it you’ll feel that it’s
destined you feel it’s impossible for
you not to fulfill it’s so important not
to minimize yourself to other people or
compare yourself to other people and
admire certain people though I should be
like that I ought to be like that are
you going to end up with the imperative
and anytime you set a goal that’s not in
line with your own highest values you
would tend to have a negative feeling
towards yourself because you’re trying
I like something less Browns at once he
said there are losers and there are
people who haven’t learned how to win my
question to you is this which one are
you are you a loser or are you still
learning how to win if you’re a loser it
doesn’t mean that you’re less than it
could mean that you’ve gotten really
good at quitting it could mean that
you’ve gotten really comfortable ending
your racing for the finish line you have
your reasons for not finishing and I’ve
had mine too but right here right now
self-discipline separates people from
success and not being successful I’ve
never met a person who was not
successful that didn’t have a great
amount of self-discipline within their
life self-discipline and being able to
perform and being able to keep your life
on schedule and being able to keep
commitments and promises and meet
deadlines is essential to success look
if you want to get rich you want to be
really successful when I say rich I’m
not talking about money I’m talking
about a rich life freedom time with
family choices get to do what you want
see this is what people did they set a
target you remember when you were a kid
and you set targets or a big giant had
nothing to do with reason they were
giant right and then you had some
difficulty getting to it and somebody
said what did your goals are unrealistic
you need to drop your goals down and add
40 years and end up with nothing
certainly not congruent with your
potential none of us can afford to have
a life that is controlled by someone
else or a life that is basically
controlled by our emotions I learned
many years ago that there are two kinds
of people there’s the type of person who
says I’m gonna wait till I feel like it
before I do it and then there’s a person
who says I’ve got to do it so that I
feel like it one will never get anything
done because they’re sterile waiting to
feel the moment to move and the other
person says no I need to move and then I
will begin to feel the moment most
people have strategies available or they
could get them or you could create them
but the problem is you got a story and
your story is why it isn’t working and
the story is I’ve tried everything if
you tried everything you’d be fit you
try everything you’d be profitable
there’s always a story and what I tell
people you know if you can just divorce
the story of your limitation and marry
the truth of your unlimited capacity
than the whole game changes
most of us in our life are trying to
make a 10% improvement and we know this
this is I’m trying to increase my
revenues by 10% I’m trying to increase
my sales by 10% save 10% more the lands
out there whatever it truly is we all
have this sort of beaten into us by life
and by the rest of the universe that you
can make these small incremental
improvements but the fact the matter is
that there are those in the world that
go ten times bigger and you every one of
us can be that I would say to you that
it’s your duty your obligation and your
responsibility to fulfill your potential
and that that’s actually what success is
success is not money simplest thing is
get crazily hungry for something we all
know when you get so hungry so desirous
your brain starts coming up with answers
and then it’s massive action but
effective execution which is all
modeling which is assume what this is
about find the best example compress the
time let someone else take 20 years to
figure it out you do it in two weeks or
two months even if you have no idea how
to solve it no idea how to get there
you’ll be amazed at what you come up
with and what’s interesting is our
legacy our past anchors us to where we
are today and you have to let go of that
you truly have to let go of all the
stuff in your past what you thought
you’ve done the infrastructure that
we are not our feelings we are not our
patterns those are things we might
identify with or not cut and so when I
see a pattern it doesn’t work I don’t
think the person’s broken I don’t think
anybody’s broken I’m not here to fix
people but I am here to break up the
patterns that don’t work I might be
wrong in what I say okay I might be
wrong in the things I do in my life and
the business that I started my families
told me not to start every business that
I’ve been involved in every one of them
every one of them was a risk everyone on
my hand had shake take a chance I
remember my mom used to tell me I
wouldn’t do that if I were you I
wouldn’t do that if I were you I
wouldn’t do that if I were you I’m like
mommy you wouldn’t do anything well you
wouldn’t do anything except be the
mother a great mother to five children
my mother was an entrepreneur she didn’t
have my dreams just because she’s my mom
doesn’t mean she dreams like me did you
agree okay my mom was wrong about
everything she told me not today love my
mom to death okay unbelievable friend of
mine she was wrong I needed to do those
things
okay Steve Jobs needed to build this
phone would you agree did he help a lot
of people did he make some money while
he was doing 119 billion dollars in five
years have the conversation with the
person that’s holding you back the
reason most people who are listening
right now we’re not doing that thing is
they’re worried about the opinion of
somebody usually their mother usually
their father and the reality is is that
your spouse may be the person holding
you back and you have to have that
conversation we have to get to a place
where you’re doing you because the
number one thing that scares the Academy
is regret and you’re gonna sit there 72
and you say I wish I wish I wish
it’s it’s it’s looking yourself in the
mirror and saying like am I doing this
right so to me there’s so many people
there talking about how big of an
entrepreneur they’re gonna be and how
much they’re gonna achieve and they
don’t work on weekends you know I worked
every Saturday of my twenties like can I
talk to 20 year old entrepreneurs every
single day lately I’ve been saying to
them this Saturday you’re gonna have
more time off than I’ve had in my entire
20s on a Saturday so like before you
tell me how you’re gonna be bigger than
me start thinking about what you’re
ask yourself am i practicing
self-discipline in my life am i doing
the things that I should do because I
need to do them or have I had a waiting
to feel the moment make a damn schedule
and stick to it
it’s not a bloody prison that’s the
first thing that people do wrong is well
I don’t like to have follow the schedule
it’s like well what kind of schedule are
you setting up well I should I have to
do this then I have to do this then I
have to do this you know and then I just
go play video games because who wants to
do all these things that I have to do
it’s like wrong set the damn schedule up
so that you have the day you want you
are what you consistently do if you look
at your calendar you look if you’re
doing on a daily regular basis that is
what’s going to determine your future
path so if you eat one chocolate bar but
the rest of your day is pretty healthy
you’re gonna be a healthy person but if
you’re eating junk and more junk and
then feed some than Burger King and more
burgers and more jug afterwards and then
you can one piece of broccoli doesn’t
mean you’re gonna be healthy working out
once won’t make a big difference for you
working out three times a week and
working out everyday you’ll see changes
in your life you are what you
consistently do want to be in the game
read
the average American reads one book a
year the top CEOs in America read five
books a month 60 plus books the earth
but immerse yourself with books
audio-video daily okay you hit all three
of those well I’m reading something
listening to something and watching
something these are completely different
ways to learn find YouTube channels that
are good for you if you work your ass
off you’re totally focused you’re trying
to serve something larger than yourself
and you really are executing what works
you need a little grace might want to
call it luck if you prefer God the
universe but it’s there and we can all
achieve but I think the more important
skill if you ask me is to have an
extraordinary as the art of fulfillment
and it’s an art it’s not a science
because there’s a science to making
money I don’t care who you are if you do
certain things you’re gonna have too
much financial stress you do other
things you’re gonna have an abundance
there’s a science there’s a science to
your body everyone here is bio
chemically different different genome
but there’s certain fundamental patterns
that if you and I follow them you’re
gonna have tons of energy gonna feel
good if you break them you’re gonna pay
the price and have low energy or disease
but fulfillment is an art what’s going
to fulfill you is differently a person
actually you’re not gonna learn that
from anybody else you got to find it
because success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure
