I hate when people give 70%
but they want the life of somebody gving 120%.
I challenge you, your life is where it is
because of the percentage you're giving.
You cannot bring a tree down
by hitting it 1,000 times.
If you hit a tree 1,000 times in 1,000 different spots,
the tree is not gonna fall.
But if you hit a tree a 1,000 times in that same exact spot,
she gonna come to the ground.
Your problem is you did hit it anout 1,000 times
but in 1,000 different places.
I need you to do me a huge favor, stop trying to be deep.
I need you to do the exact same thing
every single day
for the next 10,
15,
20 years
and watch that tree come down.
If you can't stick to something for 5 f*cking days,
you deserve to have a sh*tty life.
You deserve to get your ass kicked.
You deserve to be miserable.
We're talking about 5 f*cking days.
We're not talking about 50 years,
we're not talking about
the 5 years it probably takes to build something worthwhile,
we're not talking about the 5 months
it could take for you to lose 100 pounds,
we're talking about 5 f*cking days.
And you can't even stick to it for that,
so what the f*ck do you think you deserve?
You deserve exactly what you get.
There's no event.
It's an accumulation
of lots and lots of little things,
that any one by themselves
is innocuous and useless.
But if you do it consistently,
and you do it in combination
with lots of other little things,
it's those little innocuous things that you do
over and over and over and over
that matter the most.
You gotta get a little bit more intense
about your life,
about your business.
You gotta stop being so dadggum casual.
You gotta get in the game,
if you're gonna play the game,
let's play to win it.
Let's play to max it out.
Let's play to 10X it.
I want you shaking,
I want you feeling it,
I want your intensity level to go up.
Because it's decisions we make
to chase that best version of us,
every second, every day,
that every day
alters the direction of the course of our lives.
When you leave, what you fighting for?
What's your legacy?
What you gonna do?
You say you a champ,
but do you practice like a champ?
You say you a champ,
do you fight like a champ?
You say you a champ,
Do you have the mentality of a charm?
When you wanna become a diamond,
your whole attitude change,
your whole mindset,
your thinking, your relationships,
the decisions that you make,
how you spend your time,
your energy,
all of it changes.
With enough persistence
most things that seem impossible
become possible.
You just have to show up or show at
so often
time after time
you gotta wake up and you gotta drive
you gotta be driven to go get something done, now.
Hey everybody.
Dr. Joe here!
Little tip for you
to change is to be greater than your environment.
That means to be greater than the conditions in your life
to be greater than the circumstances in your world.
And every great person in history knew this.
That means you have to be defined by a vision of the future
instead of the memories of the past
To change means
Be greater than your body.
Those unconscious habits and behaviors and choices
that you've made over and over again so many times
that the body becomes the mind
emotions
that are connected to past experiences
keep you anchored emotionally to the past.
And if those emotions are driving your thoughts
and those thoughts are creating the same emotions,
then your body has become the mind,
which means that in order for you to change
You're gonna have to get greater than those emotional reactions,
habits, and hardwired attitudes
that keep you running unconscious programs.
And to change then is to be greater than time.
If you're waking up every single day and making the same choices
and demonstrating the same behaviors and creating the same experiences,
and you do that over and over again,
it makes sense that your past
is gonna look a lot like your future,
and your future will be more of your past
Finding the sweet spot of the generous present moment
existing in that place where you're no longer trying to predict the future
based on the past means you're in the unknown.
And when you're in that place called the eternal present moment,
that's where all possibilities exist.
Give it a try.
Adopt a simple habit.
Every single morning, I do a very simple thing.
I write down five things that I want.
That's it.
When I start my day,
after I get up when the alarm rings, I make my bed,
I pull on my exercise clothes, I set an intention.
I high five myself in the mirror.
I then go out into the kitchen,
I crack open my High five journal,
and then inside the journal
there are prompts that walk me
through the steps of visualizing.
And the first prompt is dream with the lit off.
Set your spirit free.
Write down five things every morning that you want.
And this is important because when you get what you want outta your head
and you physically put them on a piece of paper
research shows that you're 42%
more likely to achieve those goals
Simply by writing them down.
That's pretty cool.
Secondly, your mind is paying attention,
and when you take deliberate action
and you write down what you want,
you are signaling to your brain
that you deserve to have these things.
You are signaling to your brain that you do want those things.
You're not just gonna think about 'em.
These are things that matter to you
And that helps train your mind
to allow you to let the desires flow through you.
because right now
you're not manifesting properly because you're not even allowing yourself
to dream with the lit off.
So that's step number one.
You're gonna start writing down five things that you want
every single morning
as a way to train your mind,
to let you dream freely.
How do I gain more confidence?
It starts with yourself, man.
You gotta start diving into those things that you are afraid of.
You don't gain confidence by going to a spot that makes you feel good.
It's could be a false reality.
And the second life gives you that challenge.
All you wanna do is go back to what gave you confidence
Is that happy spot
No.
What gave me confidence was spending years at a kitchen table trying to
learn how to read and write on my own.
Realizing I can't learn the way you learn.
I can't, but I can learn.
What gives you confidence?
Not being afraid
It's overcoming the fear
I used to stutter severely bad.
So right now, I don't know how many people are gonna watch this.
You know what gives me confidence is know I no longer care
if I seriously start stuttering you.
That's what gives me confidence
it's facing these things, overcoming them,
and maybe not overcoming 'em every day
but facing them
and facing them and facing them
pretty soon like this.
You know what, man?
This is where it's at
It's not in that comfort zone,
it's in the discomfort zone where
is where my confidence is getting built.
that's where it's getting built.
But people, they want an easier answer.
There has to be an easier way.
There's not
I'm sorry.
I search for it my entire life.
We're built for struggle as human beings.
You, you're not after.
The bubbles of bliss that Dostoevsky described in
in notes from underground
we're built to contend with the world.
We're built to contend with reality.
You want a challenge
and the best way that you can take on a challenge
because a challenge fortifies you.
So you don't wanna be secure.
You wanna be strong,
and you get strong by taking on optimal challenges.
And so you lay out your destiny in the world
and you take the slings and arrows the fate
And you make yourself stronger while you're doing so
And you might fail
and fortune might do you in,
but it's your best bet.
And you know, people have
also people that have extracted
unbelievable successes, out of catastrophic failures.
And so, and I'm not saying that in a naive way.
I know perfectly well what happens to people.
You know,
you're doing fine in life and then you get cancer
and then six months later you're dead.
And all the heroism in the world
isn't going to save you at that point.
But that's not the point
That's not the point.
Life is bounded by mortality,
but that doesn't mean that you don't get out there
and contend
and you develop by contending
and you minimize the net amount of suffering in the world.
And that's something, man, that's something to do.
