QUELQU'UN QUI GUÉRIT DANS LA SOLITUDE EST PLUS PUISSANT QUE VOUS POUVEZ L'IMAGINER

You have to accept
that all your excuses are lies
their lies all of them
think about the things
that you tell yourself the lies you use
to rationalize taking the easy road
taking the easy road and leaving
discipline behind
think about them
you don't have time
that's a lot
[Music]
and you're too tired or you're too sore
too sore while you're just plain not
feeling it
lies lies
lies
because life does not reward people who
wait to see what happens
life
and the way it works and no matter what
you want to do when i say this you can
get mad about it you can argue with it
you can
say it's not true it doesn't matter
and if you think that life doesn't work
in a very simple equation which is
what you put in you will get out
mindset has to be
any limitation and move forward move
forward move forward there is a way move
forward
most of us have been conditioned not to
take a risk people ask me all the time
what does it take to be happy
and i always tell them it's really
simple one word progress
progress equals happiness if you keep
growing you're gonna feel alive and if
you keep growing you're gonna have more
to give and when you're growing and
giving is when life is magnificent it
doesn't matter how many statues oscars
they give you or enemies or how much
money you have in the bank
so it's really an inner game
once you understand that what the human
animal is designed to do is learn then
you have to ask yourself if what has
made the human animal the most apex of
apex predators the world has ever seen
the most capable of completely changing
its environment
what is it that allows them to learn
fast
and the answer is failure
so the only way out of pain
is more spiritual growth
as simplistic as that sounds or over
generalized
spiritual growth just means seeing more
of life than just your self
and the list goes on and on and on
then it doesn't stop
if you don't make it stop
so
recognize
recognize
the excuses are not valid
you know why the results are never there
because you can think about it you can
wish for it you can hope for it you can
think all about it all as long as you
want but unless you get out every single
day and put in the work inch by inch by
mother
inch you will never get there
so i want you to think about that moving
into 2022.
i want you to think about what you hope
to gain in 2022 i want you to think
about what you hope to achieve in 2022
and i want you to take the word hope and
i want you to throw it on the
motherfrown and i want you to replace it
with the word i will do in 2022.
everybody's focusing on the outside
world and how there's a lot of things
the outside world you'll never be able
to control you can influence
you can't control it
this your mind your emotions your body
you have 100 control over what you do
with these things and that's where the
game is won you win the inner game then
you win
you want your stuff it's necessary you
take responsibility for it that you make
it happen that you don't give up that
you don't take any objection or
disappointment or defeats personally
that you keep on keeping on that you
don't decide that i can't make it
because you can't see the light at the
end of the tunnel that you realize
that's a part of the program and here's
something you've got to resolve say this
to yourself every day see as long as
you're breathing you got a shot at your
breath
those days
when i'm tired or
worn out
or
just
basically sick of the grind
what do i do on those days
i go anyways
it's not about the rain
so the rain represents
life is always giving you a test
trying to give your way out
trying to get the excuse not to show up
you got to have the mentality to show up
every day of your life
about what life goes at you
it's our responsibility
to show you the coliseum of life
prepare for battle
i'll keep what you're going through
put my stone at you it's your
responsibility cries a new person sin
take it upon yourself to do that
not over till i win
not only till i get through it's not
over till i get over not over till i get
what i want don't get over the day look
out i'm gonna come back and take the
hinges off
that's that's how you got to do that
you've got to have that kind of courage
that type of determination if you want
to make it happen
it's you
that you've got to take personal
responsibility to make it happen
i go through the motions
i don't really want to work out
i work out
don't really want to get up and get out
of bed
i get up and get out of bed
work to build the skills that it takes
to actually adhere to the plan meaning
your discipline your fortitude your
ability to endure
your grip your determination
your self-esteem your self-worth your
confidence that you can achieve what it
is you want to achieve these are all
skill sets when you learn to develop
these skills
even if you don't have the talent
continuously sharpen these skills the
ones i'm talking about
i can achieve great things
