- 3:03you're in the [ __ ] hospital and
- 3:05you're 70 80 90 years old you're

- 3:15[ __ ] you may live the great life man but
- 3:18you're always going to feel empty inside
- 3:19I don't feel empty the life you want is
- 3:22on the other side of a few hard
- 3:23conversations and you're living a life
- 3:25you hate because you're too afraid to
- 3:27have them
- 3:30I think about that a lot Hard Times
- 3:32create Hard Men Hard Men create soft
- 3:35times soft times create soft men soft
- 3:39men create hard
- 3:41times we are now around soft men and
- 3:44hard times there's a
- 3:47moment when every boy realizes no one's
- 3:50coming to save him and that's when he
- 3:52becomes a man and some boys never get
- 3:55there and stay children forever you
- 3:57should be a monster he said you should
- 3:59be a monster you should be ruthlessly
- 4:02ambitious and then learn how to control
- 4:05it and it's that old expression it's
- 4:08better to be a warrior in a garden than
- 4:10a gardener in a war don't care how good
- 4:13you are and anything you don't have
- 4:14discipline you ain't nobody right
- 4:16nothing without discipline cuz you give
- 4:18up under the slightest struggle without
- 4:20discipline 100% told me discipline is
- 4:23doing what you hate to do but do it like
- 4:25you love it
- 4:27ah doing what you hate to do but do do
- 4:29it like you love it that's that is a
- 4:32great quote I'm going to have setbacks I
- 4:36know but if I'm feeling bad that doesn't
- 4:38mean I'm doing bad that doesn't mean I
- 4:40am bad that doesn't mean that I can't
- 4:42still take some
- 4:45action because yeah nothing changes and
- 4:47nothing changes man it's time to get
- 4:50back to work stop hearing yourself talk
- 4:53get off the podcast don't be on social
- 4:55media too much cut out all the [ __ ]
- 4:57noise get back to the [ __ ] mental
- 5:00I'd say one of the strongest mental
- 5:01frames that has got me through my
- 5:03hardest times is thinking this will be
- 5:07the story that I will one day tell and
- 5:09that means the harder it is the bigger
- 5:12the dragon the more epic the story and
- 5:15by Consequence the more epic the hero
- 5:18the fear is never Reaching Your
- 5:19Potential that's it that always falling
- 5:22short always quitting before you're done
- 5:24always procrastinating always not doing
- 5:27the right thing and then one day you're
- 5:30an old man yep and you look back and go
- 5:32God I could have been great yep I could
- 5:34have been great it's time to stay
- 5:36focused it's time to decide [ __ ] clubs
- 5:40[ __ ] partying [ __ ] trying to fit in and
- 5:44socialize rub elbows with everybody so
- 5:47people can stop calling you weird why
- 5:49are you so
- 5:51antisocial because I'm trying to get it
- 5:53why are you staying on the basketball
- 5:55court so much because I'm trying to get
- 5:58it why are you out there there
- 5:59practicing in the hot sun when ain't
- 6:01nobody else out there because I'm trying
- 6:03to get it why are you not clubbing like
- 6:06every time I text you and invite you to
- 6:08go do something fun and cool you always
- 6:10studying because I'm trying to get it
- 6:13let me tell you something homie these
- 6:15women ain't going
- 6:16nowhere these clubs these parties all
- 6:19this [ __ ] ain't going
- 6:21nowhere the more weird you
- 6:24are is a reflection of how committed you
- 6:27are to focusing on your [ __ ] molding and
- 6:31shaping and developing your ideas and
- 6:33your crab so that when it's time for you
- 6:35to make your rounds you going to fly
- 6:38people only root for people who don't
- 6:39need
- 6:41it like the amount of times when I was
- 6:44on my lonely path where I was too
- 6:48different from the friends that I had
- 6:50but not successful enough to be friends
- 6:52with the people that I wanted to be
- 6:53friends
- 6:56with that's when that's when you want
- 6:59want people to root for you that's when
- 7:01you want people to support you once
- 7:03you've already won people are like he's
- 7:06amazing he's so good but like that's the
- 7:08time when you need it the least and
- 7:12so you always have to be the person who
- 7:14roots for you before everyone else
- 7:17does and it's usually a single clap in
- 7:20the auditorium for a very long period of
- 7:23time it is a slow clap that's just you
- 7:27rooting for you um
- 7:30and that visual I think is one that you
- 7:31can kind of take because it
- 7:35is people struggle to do things
- 7:39alone and the path of the exceptional
- 7:42person is one of an exception which
- 7:44means that you are not with other people
- 7:47and rather than fighting that or boning
- 7:51it see it as an indicator that you're on
- 7:54the right path because if everyone else
- 7:56were cheering you on then it means
- 7:58you're not in the right place because it
- 7:59means you're just like everyone else and
- 8:01that's not where you want to be life
- 8:03isn't fair at all at all so what are you
- 8:08going to do about it I knew that no one
- 8:10was coming back to help me no one was
- 8:12going Miracle me to be somebody special
- 8:15so mentality is the only thing that gets
- 8:18us through life I was an underdog we are
- 8:21all underdogs in life even the baddest
- 8:23person in the world should think that
- 8:25way so she should always have I've never
- 8:27arrived
- 8:28mentality and can't hurt me mentality
- 8:31itn't matter where you come from the
- 8:32sewer or wherever you think you're from
- 8:35when I got out of the sewer I got to the
- 8:37road and looked around and said can't
- 8:39hurt me nothing should be able to hurt
- 8:41you if you believe that it starts to
- 8:43become true be the guy who
- 8:47Embraces the ugly the
- 8:50miserable
- 8:52um be the guy who Embraces hard work the
- 8:56grind don't be afraid of being hurt
- 8:58don't be afraid Crea of sacrifice in
- 9:00some blood you know there comes a day

- 9:04there comes a day where being average
- 9:07being mediocre is just sickening to you
