faith is the belief in things that you
cannot see
you can never lose faith
that's the key you have to believe in
something that you can't see you have to
believe when you can't when you don't
see no way how
you have to buckle down and keep
believing
having a biological experience
nature has those two levers pleasure and
pain
i think a lot of people make the mistake
of thinking well as long as i don't do
things that create a problem i don't do
bad things i'll be fine
what could possibly be wrong
with sitting around
in my apartment all day
goofing off
watching tv
playing video games
but when you put it together
suddenly it does not give you the life
you want and you start to feel
diseased don't feel good something's not
right something's off
but if you do all of the individual
things that are fun it ends up where you
feel like crap and if you do
individually all the things that are
hard and a struggle and are difficult
you end up feeling awesome
so
get up before the sun
be ready to attack
yes that means get up early
this will be hard at first but it will
become normal
and once you are accustomed to it early
rising is guaranteed to make your day
better
so get after him
if you could identify how you could give
more give more of your love give more of
your belief give more of your time give
more of your effort give more of your
energy you will go to the next level if
you're not feeling great about yourself
or where your life is right now the
pathway out of that is giving
you said many of us never realize our
greatness because we become sidetracked
by secondary activity you are the star
of your show you are the director you're
writing the script
and you will determine whether your life
is a smash
office hit or flop
and it isn't enough to not do something
bad you have to be pursuing something
that matters
meaning purpose that's it that's the
game it isn't success it isn't wealth it
isn't adoration it's not trophies it's
not goals it's nothing other than
fulfillment
my biggest fear in life is if there is a
final resting place in this world and
there's a final judgment you talk to
something much bigger than you i don't
want to sit down and have a conversation
with someone that says you're in heaven
this is what you should have been on
earth
i want god to be up there right now
we're speaking writing stuff down saying
my god he exceeded even my expectations
that's how i lived my life i now know
that there is no cap on the human mind
there's no cap
we cap it ourselves
[Music]
95 of our decisions are made by how you
feel in the moment and that is the
problem do you feel like making that
cold call no you don't do you feel like
doing that third set of reps no you
don't and if you accept the fact that
you may never feel ready and you may
never feel motivated and you may never
feel courageous and that's okay but you
can still push yourself forward as you
start to see yourself becoming the
person that takes action guess what
happens you build the skill of
confidence and courage
when you quit your mind does this
when you quit your mind says we're done
so it doesn't expand there's no
expansion when you quit when you say
you
uh-uh this sucks i'm drowning i'm
miserable i'm suffering i'm broken
but i'm not going anywhere what happens
to your mind
is it does this
it says he's not leaving
so we got to expand we got to grow we
got to figure this thing out
so then these compartments in your brain
they have to work
and then you start to engage parts of
your mind that you've never engaged
before when you're in suffer mode and
you say i'm not gonna quit you're
forcing your brain now to operate on a
level it's not used to you
but then it becomes used to it
the people who go after this stuff what
makes it worth it it's got to be your
passion you got to love it it's got to
be what you are supposed to do you want
to sing even though they want to invite
you to carnegie hall you're going to
sing to anybody that listens to you
including sing it to yourself
you gotta write even if no one published
your book right because that was given
to you to do
you do what it is you're supposed to
you're supposed to build something
you're supposed to create something i
don't know how to do it learn
do whatever is required it's you it's on
you you got to make that happen nobody's
going to bring it to you on a silver
platter here's your dream manifested no
it's hard yes it's hard it's difficult
yes right
and it's worth it
but i also believe at the end of my life
that the lord's going to go hey
i want to introduce you to somebody
this is the man you were destined to be
this is the man you were born to be
you have to start living your life in
expectation
you have got to start expecting great
things to happen for you in order for it
to happen
if you live your life in despair
that's what happens to you
[Music]
then i'll tell you something else
it is never too late to make that choice
you are never too old to decide where
you are going to focus your efforts and
push to make the most out of every
situation
so
think not about what you've been through
and where you were
think about where you are going and
choose
choose to make yourself smarter and
stronger and healthier
[Music]
what if
if the what if
i can pull off a miracle
[Music]
what if i can become someone that no one
thinks i can be
[Music]
do
[Music]
you
