  1. 0:01No more rationalizing, no more reasons,
  2. 0:05no more distractions.
  3. 0:08>> I dare you to shut out the world.
  4. 0:10I dare [music] you to give up everything
  5. 0:12that is keeping you from your dream.
  6. 0:15>> [ __ ] the clubs, [music]
  7. 0:16[ __ ] the partying, [ __ ] the hanging out
  8. 0:19and getting drunk.
  9. 0:20Now is the time to [music] stay focused.
  10. 0:23If it's going to happen, it's going to
  11. 0:25be you that makes it happen.
  12. 0:28>> The only [ __ ] thing that beats
  13. 0:30you is you. The only thing that can stop
  14. 0:33you is you.
  15. 0:35>> And most of y'all are not in the
  16. 0:36covenant. And covenant means meaning you
  17. 0:38if THE COMPANY GO DOWN, we go down with
  18. 0:40it. WE DO NOT RETREAT. WE DO NOT GIVE
  19. 0:43UP. WE DO NOT SURRENDER. And the reason
  20. 0:45why most of you are not SUCCESSFUL IS
  21. 0:47BECAUSE EVERY SINGLE TIME STUFF NOT
  22. 0:49GOING YOUR WAY, YOU GIVE UP. YOU QUIT.
  23. 0:51YOU LET GO. AND PEOPLE FEEL WEAKNESS.
  24. 0:53THEY FEEL IT. YOU CAN FEEL WHEN
  25. 0:55SOMEBODY'S NOT COMMITTED, WHEN THEY'RE
  26. 0:57not all in, when they're not dedicated.
  27. 0:59And there's another level you get to
  28. 1:01when you go all in.
  29. 1:02>> Everything is a test. Everything is an
  30. 1:06opportunity if you allow it to be.
  31. 1:10>> You must shrink your focus down [music]
  32. 1:12to one thing, one business, one focus at
  33. 1:14one time and master it and get great out
  34. 1:17of it for an extended period of time.
  35. 1:18The more you shrink your options in
  36. 1:20pursuit of your dream, the more it'll
  37. 1:21open them up in your life later. What
  38. 1:23are the things that are stealing your
  39. 1:24focus? Who are the people that are
  40. 1:26stealing your focus? And begin to
  41. 1:27eliminate these distractions. Get
  42. 1:29[music] laser focused and obsessed on
  43. 1:31what you want. Be starving and hungry to
  44. 1:34get it. Be desperate to get it. The
  45. 1:35combination of desperation and hunger
  46. 1:38with laser focus over an extended period
  47. 1:41of time is the formula to be [music]
  48. 1:44great at something.
  49. 1:45>> And the only way you prove to yourself
  50. 1:47that you really want it is that you no
  51. 1:49longer hit the snooze button. [music]
  52. 1:51You no longer lose focus when you're
  53. 1:52studying. You no longer take shortcuts.
  54. 1:55You no longer playing games. You are
  55. 1:58willing to do whatever it takes. I'll do
  56. 2:01whatever it takes to get to that
  57. 2:02milestone.
  58. 2:03>> When you build [music] this mental
  59. 2:05toughness by looking at every little
  60. 2:08thing as a test of your will and your
  61. 2:10ability to do what you say you're going
  62. 2:13to do, your life is going [music] to get
  63. 2:16better.
  64. 2:18>> Stop waiting for something to move you,
  65. 2:19move yourself. Every day move yourself.
  66. 2:22In the morning move yourself. In the
  67. 2:23afternoon move yourself. At night move
  68. 2:25yourself. Be very intentional and very
  69. 2:28deliberate about moving yourself. You
  70. 2:31control your feelings. Don't let nobody
  71. 2:32else control your feelings. So when you
  72. 2:33tell ME I AIN'T FEELING IT NO MORE, IT
  73. 2:35DON'T GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH SOMETHING
  74. 2:36EXTERNAL, IT'S SOMETHING INTERNAL THAT
  75. 2:38YOU AIN'T PUSHING NO MORE. YOU PUSH YOU.
  76. 2:40You got to move YOU EVERY SINGLE DAY. IF
  77. 2:44YOU GET TO A POINT IN YOUR DAY AND YOU
  78. 2:45DIALING OUT, if you get to a point in
  79. 2:47your DAY AND YOU EXHAUSTED, YOU GET TO A
  80. 2:49POINT IN YOUR DAY AND YOU not feeling
  81. 2:51it, you can stop RIGHT THERE AND CHANGE
  82. 2:52THE MOOD. Nothing controls you. You
  83. 2:55control your feelings. You control YOUR
  84. 2:57MOOD. [music] DON'T LET CONTROL YOUR
  85. 2:58MOOD. You saw SOMETHING THAT THREW YOU
  86. 3:00OFF, WELL SEE SOMETHING THAT THROW YOU
  87. 3:01BACK ON.
  88. 3:02>> THE only way to get out of the mental
  89. 3:04trap is to start and gain [music] and
  90. 3:06actually start doing it. Because all the
  91. 3:08research shows that if we can push you
  92. 3:09to get started on something, you'll
  93. 3:11likely keep going.
  94. 3:13>> Little things you're putting [music]
  95. 3:14off, do it. And do it right now. When
  96. 3:16you make a decision to do something, you
  97. 3:18flip your brain [music] onto the
  98. 3:19frequency that you have to be on to do
  99. 3:21it. You don't have to know how to do it.
  100. 3:23You only have to know you're going to do
  101. 3:24it.
  102. 3:25>> Just commit that you wake up and every
  103. 3:27single damn day you push yourself taking
  104. 3:29one small action forward.
  105. 3:31>> There's always going to be a reason to
  106. 3:32wait. There's always going to be
  107. 3:33something that is [music] inconvenient
  108. 3:35for you to work through. There's always
  109. 3:36going to be a busy schedule. It's always
  110. 3:38GOING TO BE THAT WAY. You have to
  111. 3:40[ __ ] work through [music] it. There's
  112. 3:41always going to be a reason for you to
  113. 3:43do what it takes now if you want it bad
  114. 3:46enough. But a lot of you [ __ ]
  115. 3:48just don't want it. Unless you're
  116. 3:49committed 100%, you just aren't going to
  117. 3:51make it. The processes of success are
  118. 3:54always inconvenient in the beginning.
  119. 3:55[music] They don't stay that way. If you
  120. 3:58stick with it, if you give it time, if
  121. 4:00you work through the inconveniences,
  122. 4:02[music] they become habit. It's just
  123. 4:04something automatic. And if you can
  124. 4:06create automatic actions [music] that
  125. 4:08are positive in your life, you're going
  126. 4:10to create automatic winning.
  127. 4:15>> People thought their lives what you got
  128. 4:17give up
  129. 4:18to become great. What sacrifices you got
  130. 4:21to make to become great? What promises
  131. 4:23you got to make to yourself to become
  132. 4:26great? Greatness ain't a thought
  133. 4:27process.
  134. 4:29Greatness is a lifestyle. It's what you
  135. 4:31give. It's what you get. Think great.
  136. 4:34>> If you want to take the island, burn the
  137. 4:37boats. As if there's no way to go back.
  138. 4:39It's amazing what happens when it's a
  139. 4:41must versus a should. Clarity is power.
  140. 4:44The more clear you are about exactly
  141. 4:46what it is you want, the more your brain
  142. 4:48knows how to get there.
  143. 4:49>> Don't stop. Narrow your focus to one
  144. 4:52[music] idea. One. Make it your priority
  145. 4:55and stick with it no matter what.
  146. 4:57>> Your mind will say, "Okay, we're going
  147. 4:59to figure it out
  148. 5:00>> because he is not going to stop. I don't
  149. 5:03know one [ __ ] that is successful
  150. 5:05that doesn't take inventory of every
  151. 5:08[ __ ] comment that anybody has ever
  152. 5:10made to them. Every time somebody doubts
  153. 5:13them, they get [ __ ] pissed. And when
  154. 5:16they get pissed, they go out and do
  155. 5:18productive things. They don't dwell.
  156. 5:20They don't sit at home crying their
  157. 5:22beer. They go to the gym. They get their
  158. 5:24business plan together. They do whatever
  159. 5:26the [ __ ] it takes to smash people in the
  160. 5:29[ __ ] [music] mouth with their
  161. 5:30progress. Build the kind of life that
  162. 5:33says I told you so without having to say
  163. 5:35a [ __ ] word. It's about taking what
  164. 5:38people say you can't do and shoving it
  165. 5:40down their [ __ ] throat. 100 to
  166. 5:42[ __ ] nothing.
  167. 5:44>> AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BEAST AND
  168. 5:46AVERAGE PEOPLE IS THAT AVERAGE PEOPLE
  169. 5:48LIVE FROM CHECK TO CHECK. AVERAGE PEOPLE
  170. 5:50DON'T THINK ABOUT THEIR FUTURE. THEY'RE
  171. 5:51CONSUMED WITH THE PRESENT.
  172. 5:53>> YOU'RE NOT going to be the best if
  173. 5:55you're not [music] intentional and
  174. 5:56deliberate.
  175. 5:57>> YOU GOT TO BE INTENTIONAL AND
  176. 5:58DELIBERATE. WHETHER YOU'RE MAKING MONEY
  177. 5:59OR NOT MAKING MONEY, YOU GOT TO DECIDE
  178. 6:01THAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO SOMETHING AND
  179. 6:02YOU GOT TO DO IT EVERY MONDAY, every
  180. 6:04Tuesday, every Wednesday, every
  181. 6:05Thursday. The problem with some OF YOU
  182. 6:06IN THIS ROOM, YOU'RE NOT INTENTIONAL AND
  183. 6:08DELIBERATE. YOU'RE A GOOD PERSON that
  184. 6:10just hopes that good stuff is going to
  185. 6:11happen to you.
  186. 6:11>> You got [music] to be a morning person,
  187. 6:13afternoon person, night person. You got
  188. 6:15to be when you feel good person, when
  189. 6:16you sick person, when you TIRED PERSON.
  190. 6:19>> I'M WIRED DIFFERENTLY. I LOOK AT MY WIFE
  191. 6:22EVERY SINGLE DAY AND I SAID I GOT TO
  192. 6:24GRIND. [music] I GOT TO GRIND FOR MY
  193. 6:25WIFE AND SO I EXECUTE FOR my mom. I
  194. 6:28execute for my grandma. I execute for my
  195. 6:30sister. That's why [music] I can't quit
  196. 6:32and give up even though I get tired just
  197. 6:34like everybody else.
  198. 6:35>> You have to be relentless. You have to
  199. 6:37never let off the gas, never stop, never
  200. 6:40quit. People who are extremely well
  201. 6:43accomplished, they have the ability to
  202. 6:44mentally flip that switch to where they
  203. 6:47don't [music] have a choice but to do
  204. 6:49the things they need to do. They will
  205. 6:51talk as if they don't succeed, the world
  206. 6:54is going to end.
  207. 6:55>> Listen to me, this is how you do it
  208. 6:57first with no money, no human [music]
  209. 6:59resources, no building, no funding, no
  210. 7:02support. The first thing we did was we
  211. 7:04dreamed, we wrote the dream down, we
  212. 7:06slept the dream, we ate the dream, we
  213. 7:08rehearsed the dream, we looked at the
  214. 7:10dream, WE TALKED ABOUT [music] THE
  215. 7:11DREAM, WE SLEPT WITH THE DREAM, WE WOKE
  216. 7:14UP TO THE DREAM, WE WORE the dream and
  217. 7:16now boom, it's all reality.
  218. 7:18>> You want some?
  219. 7:19>> You make up your mind.
  220. 7:20>> And yes, it's going to be hard and it's
  221. 7:21going to be difficult and you'll get
  222. 7:22more no's than you do yes, but when you
  223. 7:25hold out, THINGS WILL BEGIN TO HAPPEN
  224. 7:27YOU WON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND. HOW?
  225. 7:29>> And you don't get here by quitting when
  226. 7:31you tired. You get here by quitting when
  227. 7:33you finished, when you done. YOU DON'T
  228. 7:35STOP WHEN YOU TIRED. YOU STOP WHEN YOU
  229. 7:37DONE. YOU STOP WHEN you completed when
  230. 7:39you executed. [music]
  231. 7:41Execution is worship.
  232. 7:46>> The battle
  233. 7:47The battle is actually
  234. 7:49in your head.
  235. 7:51You're not going to hear noises. You're
  236. 7:53not going to hear gunfire. You're not
  237. 7:54going to hear any explosions.
  238. 7:56It's not that kind of battle.
  239. 7:58What's in your head is weakness and
  240. 8:00laziness.
  241. 8:02>> [music]
  242. 8:02>> And they're not attacking.
  243. 8:05They're sneaking around.
  244. 8:08They're poisoning
  245. 8:10the strength in your brain.
  246. 8:13You are putting things off because in
  247. 8:16the short term
  248. 8:17it's easier, it's more comfortable, it's
  249. 8:20more pleasurable to be distracted or to
  250. 8:23indulge yourself doing something else
  251. 8:25than it is to sit down and do the actual
  252. 8:28work to create the outputs that matter
  253. 8:31when they are needed.
  254. 8:32And I know what it's like to tell
  255. 8:33yourself, "I'm going to start on
  256. 8:35Monday." And then for the next 5 days,
  257. 8:38you gorge yourself or you're extra lazy
  258. 8:40or you treat yourself extra much because
  259. 8:43you know you're going to do it this time
  260. 8:45and this time I'm serious and this time
  261. 8:46I'm for real and I'm going to get it
  262. 8:48done. Except you're not. And you know
  263. 8:50you're not. And if you really wanted to
  264. 8:52change and if you really want to make a
  265. 8:54change and you really want to be
  266. 8:55different and you really want it to be
  267. 8:56this time, start [ __ ] now.
  268. 8:59I don't care if it's 9:00 at night. Do
  269. 9:01something productive towards what it is
  270. 9:04you're trying to become because I can
  271. 9:07tell you right now for sure that the
  272. 9:09people who tell themselves, "I'm going
  273. 9:11to start Monday." never [music] [ __ ]
  274. 9:14start Monday.
  275. 9:15All you have to do to kill
  276. 9:17procrastination
  277. 9:19is just start. You just go. And
  278. 9:21procrastination dies.
  279. 9:23>> [music]
  280. 9:23>> So don't wonder how you overcome
  281. 9:25procrastination. It's easy.
  282. 9:28All you do to overcome procrastination
  283. 9:31is go.
  284. 9:33>> You've got to activate the thinker in
  285. 9:35you. Don't allow your emotions to
  286. 9:37control you. We are emotional, but you
  287. 9:39want to begin to discipline your
  288. 9:41emotion. If you don't discipline and
  289. 9:44contain your emotions, they will use
  290. 9:46you. Prove to yourself today, every
  291. 9:49[music] day, that you can and will push
  292. 9:52harder than you want to [music] do,
  293. 9:54harder than you felt like pushing, past
  294. 9:57the point of fatigue and far beyond the
  295. 9:59point of comfort [music] to that outer
  296. 10:01edge with every ounce of grit and
  297. 10:04tenacity. It's where you cross that
  298. 10:06line, that threshold, THROUGH THE
  299. 10:09SUFFERING. YOUR BODY AND MIND WILL
  300. 10:11ALWAYS ADJUST to more suffering, to more
  301. 10:13pain. [music]
  302. 10:13Your mind quits way before your body
  303. 10:15does. So, you have to be willing to go
  304. 10:17way in that darkness
  305. 10:18>> [music]
  306. 10:18>> and find more yourself. Regardless of
  307. 10:20what's in front of you, you still must
  308. 10:22grind. I fail at most things I do, but
  309. 10:25still I grind. I don't want to do half
  310. 10:27the stuff I do,
  311. 10:28>> [music]
  312. 10:28>> but still I grind. And that one day, you
  313. 10:31see me in a dark alley, running at 1:00
  314. 10:33in the morning, no one playing, I was
  315. 10:35grinding. Where are the warriors that
  316. 10:38say, "I'm going to make a decision and
  317. 10:40I'm keeping it." And regardless of how
  318. 10:42you feel about it, it doesn't matter if
  319. 10:44the world is crumbling down around you.
  320. 10:46It doesn't matter what's happening. Just
  321. 10:49do the thing every
  322. 10:51>> [music]
  323. 10:51>> single day, whether you feel like it or
  324. 10:54not. "Oh, I don't feel so good today."
  325. 10:56Get your lazy, sick ass up out of bed.
  326. 10:58Your only commitment is
  327. 11:00>> [music]
  328. 11:00>> to the activity, not to the grand
  329. 11:02scheme, not to the big picture, not to
  330. 11:04the implications of what it is that
  331. 11:05you're doing. It's [music] to do the
  332. 11:07thing. It's what you just going to do
  333. 11:08every single day that matters more than
  334. 11:10anything. Devote yourself to something
  335. 11:12bigger. [music] Be decisive about what
  336. 11:14you're going to do. And then be
  337. 11:15disciplined about getting it done every
  338. 11:17single day, whether you feel like it
  339. 11:19or not.
  340. 11:26If you stay in bed, if you stay on the
  341. 11:29couch, if you stay in your comfort zone,
  342. 11:32if you only do what is easy, your life
  343. 11:36will be hard. But if you do what is
  344. 11:38hard, if you get up, if you grind, if
  345. 11:41you are relentless, if you work as hard
  346. 11:43as possible when other people are
  347. 11:45slacking off, your life will be easy.
  348. 11:49>> Easy does it pay well. Choose the hard
  349. 11:52path, the path of responsibility, hard
  350. 11:55work, and sacrifice that ultimately
  351. 11:59leads to freedom.
  352. 12:00>> Too tired, too hungry, too sore, too
  353. 12:04hot, too cold, too whatever.
  354. 12:07>> People ask me what I do when I get those
  355. 12:10little feelings running around. Well,
  356. 12:12let me tell you what I don't do. I don't
  357. 12:14tell everybody. As a matter of fact, I
  358. 12:17don't even let those words run around
  359. 12:19inside my own brain housing group. I
  360. 12:21keep it secure.
  361. 12:22>> LOCK IT DOWN.
  362. 12:24>> It doesn't matter how I'm doing. It
  363. 12:26doesn't matter how I slept last night.
  364. 12:28It doesn't matter how I feel. It doesn't
  365. 12:29matter when the last time I ate. It
  366. 12:32doesn't matter cuz I'm going to go get
  367. 12:33some.
  368. 12:34>> Are you going to work out today? Yes or
  369. 12:37no? Are you going to win? Yes or no?
  370. 12:41Make the binary toad decision. Yes or
  371. 12:44no?
  372. 12:45>> It's a commitment. It's not a feeling.
  373. 12:47Don't let me start having TO DEAL WITH
  374. 12:49YOUR FEELINGS. YOU DO IT BECAUSE YOU'RE
  375. 12:51SUPPOSED TO.
  376. 12:52>> [music]
  377. 12:52>> Your mind is your strongest weapon, but
  378. 12:54you must take control of it. You have to
  379. 12:56tell [music] your brain where you want
  380. 12:57to go. When your brain tells you to give
  381. 12:59in, you push forward. When it tells you
  382. 13:01to take the day off,
  383. 13:02>> [music]
  384. 13:02>> you go harder. Don't allow your weak
  385. 13:05feelings to dictate where you end up in
  386. 13:07your life.
  387. 13:09>> Effort is isolated. [music]
  388. 13:10Nobody can dictate. Effort is 100% in
  389. 13:13the mind.
  390. 13:14>> Don't give in. Don't be like everybody
  391. 13:16else. Don't [music] give up. Don't
  392. 13:18settle because things are hard. Don't
  393. 13:20let people talk you into their life.
  394. 13:22Become stronger. [music]
  395. 13:23Become better. Become faster. Become
  396. 13:26smarter. Become more productive.
  397. 13:28>> [music]
  398. 13:28>> What does a $500,000 a year person do
  399. 13:31that a $50,000 a year person doesn't do?
  400. 13:33He pays the price and a little bit more.
  401. 13:35He works hard and a little bit more. He
  402. 13:38bleeds and a little bit more. He makes
  403. 13:40money and a little bit more. He saves
  404. 13:41[music] money and a little bit more.
  405. 13:43They do it and do it and do it until the
  406. 13:46job gets done.
  407. 13:48If you want to become somebody, do it.
  408. 13:51If you want to go in business for
  409. 13:52yourself, [music]
  410. 13:53do it. If you want to become financially
  411. 13:55independent, do it. You do it and do it
  412. 13:58and do it. You are phenomenal. You are
  413. 14:02beyond measure. I need you to act like
  414. 14:03it. No alarm clock needed. My passion
  415. 14:06wakes me up. My drive wakes me up. My
  416. 14:09determination wakes My ability to be,
  417. 14:11DO, AND ACT WHATEVER I WANT, it wakes ME
  418. 14:13UP. I AIN'T ABOUT TO MISS this
  419. 14:15opportunity. [music] I'm about to get
  420. 14:16everything I got. And I will know if I
  421. 14:18don't get another gig, it won't have
  422. 14:20anything to do with the fact that I
  423. 14:21didn't put everything on the field. It's
  424. 14:23full throttle or no champagne bottle.
  425. 14:29You are not where you're supposed to be
  426. 14:31because of you.
  427. 14:32It's all you.
  428. 14:35You tell yourself lies,
  429. 14:37reasons.
  430. 14:39I'm too tired. I need to rest. [music]
  431. 14:41I'm too hungry. I'm too full. Something
  432. 14:44else is more important. I don't have
  433. 14:47time. Lies. Lies. Lies. Lies. People ask
  434. 14:52where discipline comes from. I tell them
  435. 14:55it comes from needing. But there's ego
  436. 14:57level. Discipline comes from the truth.
  437. 15:00The framework of discipline.
  438. 15:03And if you lie to yourself, you will not
  439. 15:05find discipline. The truth is that you
  440. 15:08know. You know you could do more. You
  441. 15:11know you could be more. That's what's
  442. 15:13driving you crazy. All your excuses are
  443. 15:17lies. The truth will set you free. The
  444. 15:20truth delivers discipline. And the truth
  445. 15:23is you have time. You have the skill.
  446. 15:27You have the knowledge and the willpower
  447. 15:30and the discipline to get it done. Don't
  448. 15:33really want to work out? I work out.
  449. 15:35Don't really want to hammer on a
  450. 15:37project? I hammer on a project. Don't
  451. 15:40really want to get up and get out of
  452. 15:42bed? I get up and get out of bed. Don't
  453. 15:46give in to the immediate [music]
  454. 15:48gratification
  455. 15:49that is whispering in your ear. Shut
  456. 15:52that down. Do not listen. Instead, go
  457. 15:55through the motions. Lift the weights.
  458. 15:57Sprint the hill. Work on the projects.
  459. 15:59[music] Get out of bed.
  460. 16:01>> The ability to be resilient towards your
  461. 16:03dreams, to keep marching on when the
  462. 16:06struggle, the strife, the trial, [music]
  463. 16:07the turmoil, the chaos, the frustration,
  464. 16:10the hurt, the anger, the disappointment,
  465. 16:12the shame, the regret, the
  466. 16:14embarrassment. When all that is there
  467. 16:16and you keep marching on, you know
  468. 16:19you'll be a successful person. It's the
  469. 16:21ability to be optimistic enough to know
  470. 16:24this too shall pass.
  471. 16:27This time shall change.
  472. 16:30I will find a way. I will honor my truth
  473. 16:34[music] and keep pursuing my dreams
  474. 16:37thick and thin, storm or night. I will
  475. 16:41maintain my march.
  476. 16:45That is something [music] that is built
  477. 16:47and ingrained in every successful
  478. 16:48person. Not because they were lucky with
  479. 16:50it. Not because they grew up with it.
  480. 16:52Because they developed it. It's a style
  481. 16:55they developed. By doing it once, they
  482. 16:56did it again, they did it again, they
  483. 16:58did it again. The more bold and
  484. 16:59courageous you are, the more bold and
  485. 17:02courageous you'll be in the future. The
  486. 17:04more confident you are today, the more
  487. 17:05confident you'll be in the future. The
  488. 17:07more you overcome yesterday's struggles
  489. 17:10today, the more you'll be able to
  490. 17:11overcome the bigger struggles tomorrow.
  491. 17:14Never forget these things. Keep
  492. 17:17marching.
  493. 17:18>> Nobody wakes up in the morning every day
  494. 17:21of their life fired up. The reason I'm
  495. 17:23successful is because I execute whether
  496. 17:25I have the [ __ ] fire or whether I
  497. 17:27don't have the [ __ ] fire. And that's
  498. 17:29discipline. That's discipline to do the
  499. 17:32[ __ ] that you don't want to do because
  500. 17:34you know it needs to be [ __ ] done.
  501. 17:36>> Why not try it, man? Shock the system.
  502. 17:39Get up at 4:00 in the [ __ ] morning
  503. 17:40one day, just one day, and go for a
  504. 17:42[ __ ] run. Commit to one day and see
  505. 17:44how you feel as you're jogging it back
  506. 17:46in around 5:00 or something as your
  507. 17:48neighbors are still asleep. Well, your
  508. 17:50day's already provided something for
  509. 17:51you. Mentally, you'll feel like, "Wow,
  510. 17:53man, that was a [ __ ] alive."
  511. 17:55>> When everybody else says, "No, this is
  512. 17:57not comfortable. We shouldn't do this."
  513. 17:58You say, "Yes, [ __ ] I'm going
  514. 17:59to introduce myself to it."
  515. 18:01>> When we talk about regret, I can 1,000%
  516. 18:04guarantee you that how you feel about
  517. 18:07your life at the end of your time here
  518. 18:09is going to come down to your ability to
  519. 18:11cultivate discipline. It's going to come
  520. 18:13down to you developing the ability to do
  521. 18:17the things that you don't feel [music]
  522. 18:18like doing because you know that it's
  523. 18:20the right thing to [ __ ] do.
  524. 18:22>> Because we are what we repeatedly do
  525. 18:25every day.
  526. 18:25>> Therefore, excellence is not an
  527. 18:27accident, but a habit. It's habitual.
  528. 18:30It's in us every single day. The people
  529. 18:31that are top movie stars over and over
  530. 18:33and over again, they're not lucky. They
  531. 18:35train it, they win it, they earn it over
  532. 18:38and over again.
  533. 18:38>> So, THOSE DAYS YOU DON'T WANT TO DO IT,
  534. 18:40JUST WHAT YOU GOT TO DO, YOU GOT TO SUCK
  535. 18:42IT THE [ __ ] UP AND DO IT.
