life is hard right like yeah you might
get hurt it's like you know you're you
your heart might get broken you know
it's like you might lose your job but
you still gotta commit you know it's
like you know you meet somebody and you
have you know you like her and she likes
you and you hesitating don't hesitate go
commit you gotta commit you know you
might get hurt you might lose something
but it's like you can't experience the
the joy that is intended for you in life
if you don't go when you have an image
that you can succeed excel at something
when you have an image that you can do
it rather than that you can't do it when
you get into your car and you have an
image that you're going to find a
parking place rather than that there'll
be no place to park so you're not
looking for no place to park you will
start acting on the image that you have
very much like you will start acting on
the practice that you have when you're
shooting baskets or when you're hitting
a forehand er or working on your soup or
anything else that you're doing do you
think Elon Musk s work-life balance
no do you think Steve Jobs when he was
alive had work-life balance no do you
think Bill Gates no Henry Ford no so if
none of those people that created the
wealth of the world had work-life
balance why do you think you're gonna
have it why
could you deserve it I don't think so
you deserve what you get in life by
working hard you're not gonna make any
excuses you're not gonna blame anyone
else you're gonna take ownership of
whatever happens and when something goes
wrong instead of pointing fingers and
blaming someone else you're gonna take
ownership of that problem
you're gonna take ownership of figuring
it all out the solution to that problem
is and you're gonna take ownership of
implementing that solution just be
satisfied with what you got
don't believe get him away from you you
should never be satisfied with what you
got because the attempt to get more
makes you into something better all the
time don't let anybody tell you hey man
you know you should just be happy wait
no you should double your business you
have to accept whatever you are letting
into your life
don't sleep in on the weekends the
weekends when you got to hold the line
if you sleep in on the weekend til 5:45
well then guess what at night you're all
the sudden you have little extra energy
so you stay up a little later so then
Sunday morning you sleep in till 6:30
now Monday rolls around that alarm goes
off at 4:30 you don't feel like doing it
you start just downward spiral you got
to sleep you got to sleep sleep is very
healthy it's good for you what I am
saying you don't need to get up at 4:30
you don't need to do that people have
different schedules you got your life
going on you got to figure out what
works for you but I am absolutely saying
don't be lazy
I am absolutely saying just get on up
get on a regular pattern and maintain
that pattern to the best of your ability
when I'm in the gym I do not play I make
knowing I live I throw I have power
cleaning okay and the weights are flying
up yelling this gyms beat just like
everybody else right he's like man yo
you going that down
you're making us look bad we tell you
something man I said hey hey hey listen
I say you surf don't talk to me I said
you mind your business
hear me you are a warrior don't ever let
anybody take what you're supposed to get
and I knew what I was supposed to get I
was there and that's Jim to get what I
was there to get I don't care what you
said I don't care what you look like I
don't care how I look it takes courage
to look like a fool so when I go
somewhere with my kids I always want to
push them I just want to push the
envelope slightly and go as you say you
get out of that comfort zone just a
little bit that's where your growth
space is so watching somebody experience
wonder and all and grow that's I just
love to do however we can build that
if you're blaming everyone else I can't
control you I can't control these other
things outside I can't I can't control
the only thing I can control is me
instead of worrying about who else is
causing you problems worry about what
you can do to yourself to improve your
station and if you go down that path
you're gonna find you have a lot more
control than you think you do when
you're in the gym and you're out of
shape you don't look good you don't look
good when you learn is something when
you go to school and you they give you
the grade and everybody thought he
didn't do it it'd do good you got a deed
you feel that hurt you going on what you
gonna do never take a test no you get
back up and you get what you are
supposed to get
jothee were all hardwired to do
something really special with their life
I want to do something I find somebody
that's already in it and then I do
exactly what they tell me it's a simple
rule to follow i I don't read novels I
don't watch movies
I'd watch documentaries or things like
that right and learn I'm only interested
in studying something that can cause me
to become or what I'm capable of being
who believe that you need what you don't
have is the definition of insanity to
believe that you need what you don't
have because you're already here so
you've already proven that you don't
need it so to go around believing that I
can't be happy fulfilled you know
whatever it is unless I get this stuff
that I don't already have it's a
complete and total illusion it's a it's
a thought that isn't even true this
there's no truth to it whatsoever you
don't need anything and when you get
that the irony is you're no longer
you're no longer attached you're your
total life is about it's just about
living those virtues how can I serve how
can I be sincere how can I be gentle how
can I be supportive and thinking like
that and that's how I think now and
because of that I'm I'm in meaning and
being in meaning the times that I was in
ambition you know is is delivering more
and more and more and more of what I
wanted so much then and now that I'm not
attached to it it's like I can just be
like that I can be like the cat you know
I can just go about my business and just
let it follow after me but you can't
have a standard education and expect to
have an extraordinary life it's not
gonna happen the one breakthrough for
all leaders is constant never-ending
improvement and that means educating
yourself and continuing to develop even
greater emotional mastery because that's
what affects whether you execute enough
the opportunity for self education is
there we have to change our psychology
I'm gonna do what everybody else does
and I'm mad because it doesn't work
anymore - the reality is is the greatest
time to be alive if you're growing
you're learning you're educating and
you're developing valuable skills so
instead of complaining you gotta say
where are the skill sets valued in the
marketplace and how do I work harder on
myself than anything else because if I
become more valuable then I will be able
to give more jingle
seven and a half billion people on the
planet and my my guesstimate is world
there's only about seven or eight
hundred thousand of us on the planet
that are willing to make the sacrifices
it needs to be focused commitment and
there's just like a premier athletes you
know there's a lot of people that run
100 hour - but they are very few learn
to make it the Olympics right you have
to be balanced so let's just take
humility and ego because we're looking
for people that are humble but at the
same time you can have someone that's so
humble that they lack confidence that's
bad on the other side of that spectrum
you can have someone that's so confident
that they're overconfident their egos
big and they don't listen anyone else
where do you want to be you want to be
balanced somewhere in the middle I
talked about the fact that you need to
be articulate as a leader that's great
can you be a leader that talks so much
that people stop listening to the other
and the spectrum is you are a leader
that doesn't say enough and now the team
doesn't know what direction they're
supposed to be going in so where do you
want to be you want to be somewhere in
the middle you want to be balanced
the comfort zone is dangerous when
you're comfortable you are at most
danger yo the comfort zone is somewhere
you need to you should never feel
comfortable you should be happy and to
satisfy all of you have some music
playing and all of you have a heroic
mission
there's no accidents in this universe we
all show up here with a purpose too many
of us are afraid to listen to that music
and March to it I know you have a book
you wanted to write I know there's a
composition you wanted to compose I know
there's a song you want to sing
someplace maybe you want to raise horses
out in Montana who knows what it may be
and in Leo Tolstoy his famous novel the
death of Ivan Illich he asked this
question that would be terrifying to me
he says as he has this accountant from
Moscow lying on his deathbed
contemplating the horror of this
question what if my whole life has been
wrong
I've known what my music is it's playing
right now
as I stand here in front of you with
these cameras and in this place as I sit
down and write my books and tell the
world what I know are my truths I feel
always completely on purpose and
fulfilled and no time will I ever come
to the end of my life and say what if my
whole life has been whoever you are
whatever that music is however distant
it may sound however strange however
weird others may interpret it to be
don't get to the end of your life and
know that you're going to leave and not
have it played yet
