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 race before the finish line you
have your reasons for not finishing and
I’ve had mine too but right here right
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 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 there’s terrible 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’s 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 infuse 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 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 you’ve built to let
yourself go
[Music]
we are not our feelings we are not our
patterns those are things we might
identify with we’re not taught 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 to check 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 them out of
me is regret and you’re gonna sit there
at 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 and I
talked 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
twenties 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 am I kind of waiting
to feel at 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 say
well I don’t like to have to 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 Peet’s and
then Burger King and more burgers and
more jug afterwards and then you can one
piece of broccoli listening you’re gonna
be healthy working out once won’t make a
big difference for you working out three
times a week or working out every day
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
here 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
we focused you’re trying to serve some
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 gonna hold chief but I think the
more important skill if you ask me is to
have an extraordinary life as the art of
fulfillment 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 hears 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
different than that person actually
you’re not gonna learn that from anybody
else you got to find it because success
without fulfillment is the ultimate
if you want it you gotta go get it it’s
time to stay focus I hope this video
makes you uncomfortable cuz I look at
this I look at this as a mirror you get
to look yourself in the mirror and acts
hard and tough questions what am i doing
every single day with my life creating
obstacles challenges and distractions
people look at politicians and
celebrities on the TV and newspapers
glossy magazines what do they see I’m
just like them that’s what they say come
on man come on I’m special I’m different
I could be any one of them well guess
what you can’t you know why because in
reality mediocrity is where most people
live mediocrity is the elephant in the
room it’s ubiquitous mediocrity in your
schools it’s in your dreams it’s and
your family I’m giving you my hand and
I’m saying take my hand and let’s fly
you changed you stopped being you you
let people stick a finger in your face
and tell you you’re no good and when
things got hard you started looking for
something to blame like a big shadow you
me or nobody is gonna hit as hard as
life but it ain’t about how hard you hit
it’s about how hard you can get hit and
keep moving forward how much you can
take and keep moving forward that’s how
weird it is done most of you say you
want to be successful but you don’t want
it bad you just kind of warnings your
habits determine what direction
you don’t want it badder 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 you’re better than that
today’s your day you are the only reason
why all of your ancestors before you
ever lived
make a choice right you just decide what
it’s gonna be who you’re gonna be how
you’re going to do it just decide we
have this this habit of getting
comfortable in our routines and patterns
and then it gets difficult to get out of
that there’s got to be those days you
push through there probably gonna be
more numerous than the days you don’t
and I think that’s something to be
mindful of as well try to imagine your
life when you’d make that easy choice
next time what is that gonna do is that
gonna keep you away from your dreams are
you gonna regret that later
you know a lot of opportunities appear
only once in life and you skip that
taking the easy choice they’re probably
gone forever you can dream of the kind
of life you want you can dream of the
kind of change you want you can dream of
the kind of future you want but until
you wake up
and begin to plan to get there it will
only be really if you don’t get up and
actually do something do anything those
a new positive emotions will never have
the opportunity to follow those actions
you’ll just be stuck in the lazy
demotivated hole for as long as you
and so the benefit of discipline in my
eyes has always been that through
you told us to choose about to start
working out you told us to choose my
startup business but when are you gonna
do that your number one job is to become
more of yourself and sometimes all a big
part of success is just not being lazy
and just doing it yeah just yeah that’s
like 90% of those just showing up get
there and start working like you’re not
gonna feel perfect every day effort
effort man I see so many people talking
about hustle hard work determination
grind work ethic at the end of the day
when I look at the body of people many
of them and I’ve worked with around the
world at the end of the day it’s effort
do I not have enough time or am I being
lazy
[Music]
and lazy comes in two different flavors
lazy comes in two distinct flavors lazy
comes in one flavor which means not
working you might be saying hey I’m
constantly working I’m constantly
learning that’s an easy that’s an easy
rebuttal but the second flavor of lazy
is not doing what needs to be done it
means holding out on doing what you know is necessary but hard to do
