Many of you will not be successful because you've got this giant goal
and no steps to go with it.
You're just in your mind like this is my year.
How many steps?
I don't know.
What is it gonna take for you to do it?
I don't know.
I just know this is my year.
Can I be real with you?
If you can't measure it, it ain't real.
I had to give something up to go up.
What do you give up?
Do you not watch TV?
That's your problem.
You're getting to watch TV and not make money
and still survive.
What do you sacrifice?
The reason why you're broke is because you're getting a reward
and you ain't working.
Having esteem for yourself only occurs
when you put yourself on the line and you do something that's incredibly difficult
on a regular basis.
That's where pride comes from.
Something that's earned.
So there are people who want stuff but you kinda want it.
I get sick and tired of people telling me
how bad they want it yet their actions don't back up that statement.
Obsession is wanting something so bad that
I go to bed with it I wake up to it
I make whatever sacrifice I grind
I can't live without it.
If you're gonna get anything you will have to pay the price.
There is a price tag to greatness.
You will have to work for every single thing you get.
And you gotta work every single day.
You gotta wake up every day and work.
Everybody wants to wait and put off the things they truly want in their lives
for tomorrow the mystical place
where 99% of dreams go to die.
The only time you have is right now.
And if you're not obsessed every single second
of every single day with achieving your goals
you're never gonna f*cking achieve them.
It takes dedication it takes time
it takes effort it takes obsessive
compulsive ridiculous amounts of effort.
You better dedicate every f*cking second
of every day of every week
of every month of every f*cking year
for a lot of years in a row if you ever wanna get these kinds of goals.
Don't be somebody who talks sh*t be somebody who does sh*t.
The only thing you do for success there's no discounts
it's sweat it's blood
it's tears.
You can't get 50% off.
It's sweat it's blood
it's tears.
There are no shortcuts to success.
Stop thinking there are.
And stop wanting people to put you somewhere that you didn't earn.
I dare you to try to shortcut success it's not going to happen.
You can't go around it you can't go under it
you can't go over it the only way you can get to it
is through it.
Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard
than anybody else expects of you.
Never excuse yourself.
Don't fool yourself into thinking that this year is gonna be better than last
year if you're still making excuses.
There are no excuses.
You cannot cheat success.
You gotta work for it you gotta breathe it
you gotta sleep it you gotta eat it
you gotta put forth 120%.
When you go out there I need you to have that dog.
When you get out there I need you kill or be killed when you get
out there.
When you get out there whatever you can get, go get it
'cause they're gonna get it before you get it
and they ain't gonna give it to you.
So you go out there and get what's yours.
Because there's somebody out there who wants your spot.
You're not the only one trying to go to Yale.
You're not the only one trying to go to Harvard.
You're not the only one trying to go to the NBA.
You're not the only one trying to go to the NFL.
And so you gotta embody excellence.
It only takes one extra push up.
It only takes one extra mile.
It only takes one extra grade.
It only takes one extra effort.
It only takes one extra something to get you to where you're trying to get to.
A new outfit doesn't make you a new person.
And if you think you are magically
gonna be a new person I hate to be the bearer of bad news
because new life comes from a new mind
and a new way of looking at your life.
Keep your dreams phenomenal.
Keep your vision phenomenal.
And now I need you to get your weight up.
I need you to get your schedule up.
I need you to get your life up.
I need 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.
