Are you a gazelle? Or are you a lion?
And let me tell you the difference between the gazelle and the lion
when the gazelle wakes up it runs.
But if a lion ain't chasing it it stops running.
But when the lion wakes up it don't need nobody to push it
it pushes itself, why? Because he realizes
that if he does not catch that gazelle not only him
but his family don't eat. What are you playing his game for?
What's your passion? What's your drive?
What's your purpose? What's your purpose for playing this game?
No alarm clock needed my passion wakes me up.
My drive wakes me up. My determination wakes me up.
My ability to be, do and have whatever I want
it wakes me up. What wakes you up?
What drives you? Why are you playing this game?
Is it just a game? Or do you eat it?
Do you sleep it? Do you drink it?
Have you possessed the game? When you are a lion
it does not make a difference you realize that if your family
is going to eat that if that pack of lions
is to survive then you gotta go hunt.
You're a gazelle you're gonna come up short
you're a gazelle you're gonna have an average experience.
You're a student I need you in lion mode.
You're an entrepreneur I need you in lion mode.
You're trying to lose weight lion mode.
You can't do nothing significant in gazelle mode.
Nothing impressive happens in gazelle mode.
Nothing happens in run mode give up mode
quit mode. Scared mode
fearful mode nothing happens.
Everything happens in lion mode like, I'm coming to get you.
A part of being a beast just ain't eating a gazelle
a part of being a beast is the hunt.
It's the hunt that they're excited about. They like to see the gazelles run
then boom they take off.
'Cause real lions like to hunt. They love the process
just as much as they love the prize. And some of y'all just want a score
you don't like the process. You're not in love with the process.
A true hunter's goal is not the prize.
A true hunter's goal is to hunt.
That's what they live for. They live to hunt.
They don't just live to catch it it's the whole process.
I'm like the lion. I'm not the gazelle.
I don't need something external to motivate me
I find something within. When you are a true hunter
you don't go by time you go by the gazelle.
When you are a true hunter you hunt
until you get a gazelle and you don't stop until you get one.
And then you get another and then you get another
and you get another. Keep playing
the game. Keep grinding.
Keep working. Look at your belief system every single day
and stick with it. Don't rush the process.
Trust the process. Don't rush the process.
Trust the process. From this day forward
I will give 120% or nothing at all.
When you want something bad you can't count the cost.
Because if you count the cost and you see how much it cost
you might quit you might give up.
So you gotta go in knowing that I don't count the cost.
I do as many push-ups as it takes. As many reps as it takes.
I study as long as it takes. I pay whatever the price is
why? Because if I start counting the cost
I might quit I might give up
I might surrender. Don't count the cost.
You get to a point where you don't count it. You just do
whatever it takes to get whatever you want.
Winners win and losers lose.
And if you create a culture of losing if you keep being a victim
if you keep letting losing happen to you if you keep letting people do and treat you
any kind of way it's gonna become a culture.
You gotta give up that mediocre part of you. You gotta give up this common thinking you
got that's telling you, you can't do this
that you can't have this that it's not possible for you.
You gotta give that up. And you got to trust yourself.
You got to know you came here
with the stuff in you you are a winner
you were born to win it is your right to win
it is your right to have your dream. You don't get this stuff
you don't get these ideas unless you also have the capacity
to make it happen. Use your gift
and become stronger become better
become faster become smarter
become more productive. And you know what?
You will build a life
that says I told you so without having to say a f*cking word.
