And this NFL football player comes up to me and says Gog, lemme ask you a question
-
How do you keep that dog mentality? I said, "Lemme asked you a question. When you were younger...,
-
,...what did you want to be?" He said "An NFL football player, but once I got there, I lost that dog mentality"
-
He had a finish line is playing guess what let you talk mentality I have a dog at home
-
He never gets full it's not enough you made it to the NFL
-
But not enough you made a 5k with a 10k and that you became a doctor
-
Be a better doctor. It's not enough you lost 50 pounds, go out there do something with it
-
Guess what? It's 109' out here. Guess what? It's not enough! STAY HARD
-
One day I was running and this guy passes me in a car... It's about 100 degrees out here 70% humidity
-
The guy comes back around looks at me and pull this car by me and says, "Why are you out here?"
-
I said, "Because you're not."
-
Sometimes your motivation needs to be because no one else wants to do it
-
We need doctors! We need dentists! We need teachers! We also need savages
-
This messes I do
-
Nothing everybody
-
Some want that soft bullshit about ," Do you have sunscreen on?" This message is dangerous. It's too hot
-
I'm not asking you to be like me. You do you!
-
Stay hard!
-
Your minds get softer! We do that shit every day in life
-
A lot of you are trying to find inspiration and motivation...,
-
...with a depressed mindset. You'll find inspiration by not living in the grip of life
-
Neither leaving the grip of life to find inspiration
-
Put challenges in front of yourself and then you attack it! That's when you find inspiration
-
repetition every day stay hard
-
So the other day I got an email from this lady
-
She says she truly enjoyed my book, but as she read it, she thought I was this crazy
-
After she read it. She put the book down and started living a normal life
-
Just going back paying bills, going back to work complaining about shit
-
Two days later. She has time to think about the book and it scared her
-
she thought well, maybe this guy isn't crazy, and
-
that's what scared her the most. Maybe he's here trying to show us a real potential, what we're all capable of doing.
-
A lot of people like to put titles on other people. Who're doing extraordinary things
-
It makes them feel better about themselves. Gives 'em a get out of jail free card. I'm not crazy. I'm just not like you
-
In sports... there's a thing out there called "Load management"
-
A lot of us like to "Load manage" our lives
-
When you do that, you're gonna find yourself right at normal
-
Get off that and stay hard!
-
With success in life comes more haters
-
Don't make them hurt your feelings, use it for fuel, use them for energy
-
In times of need, put them on mental rolodex in your mind and we don't want to do shit
-
roll through your brain
-
Pull up that person who said you couldn't do something. "You weren't fast enough, good enough, smart enough!"
-
Use it for energy
-
instead of killing 'em with kindness
-
Torture them with success. In life, we have to continue pushing past the odds
-
Use everything this world has to give you for fuel stay hard
-
And anybody not just Navy says but anybody that can accomplish anything that is hard
-
The other separator is is that they really want to be there
-
There's some people that get inspired
-
and that inspiration moves them to try to do something, but the inspiration is
-
...is very high right now in this nice environment.
-
We're in a nice environment. I watched a movie about some badasses you're inspired
-
but the second you're not in this environment
-
and you're actually doing
-
What inspired you that "suck factor" is NOT real
-
You're now "there" if only those people
-
who have been "there" a million times in their minds and
-
...and have lived in that water and have suffered a million times and realized my legs may break
-
My knee may break, my bones will hurt.
-
I will be the coldest I've been in my life. I will be miserable and
-
Accept that me getting over situations in life your mind and media says get everybody's done even if you want to be there
-
But starts to have all these different questions in your mind that one second it says, okay
-
Why are you here why this and why that and then you started to say yourself
-
If you don't want to be there that bad
-
"I'm not gonna break my body up to do this!" Your mind starts to say "Yeah! this is stupid!"
-
But if you had if you are already knowing that this is going to happen to you. We have all the answers to these questions
-
That your mind starts to give you when you're at "Suffer mode"
-
Trying to be 10% better than you were last week
-
So you're running 30 miles a week? Run 33!
-
If you're swimming 500 meters, swim 550
-
The more you walk away from accountability
-
the weaker you become
-
Come find yourself in the grip of life. You can't find yourself by doing nothing
-
We've developed "Pockets of weakness" nowadays
-
And we try to fill these pockets with lies. I did it for many years
-
So... I'm here in Colorado for a conference. I go to the gym
-
This trainer calls me over to talk to this group of people he's training. He says "Hey, man?"
-
"What are you doing out here?" So I tell him, "look at what kind of workouts are you doing?"
-
"I'm climbing up this mountain!"
-
3,000 feet for three miles. I'm doing it every day
-
So next day I'm out looking for him
-
Didn't see him. A couple days later, looking for him...
-
Didn't see him!
-
So here I am on the mountain again. Climbing it
-
There's a gondola that takes you up and takes you down
-
I'm going up it and I see the gondola about 5 minutes to the top. I look up at gondola
-
I see him face pressed up against the window looking at me our eyes meet
-
Don't talk about it, be about it
-
Practice what you preach
-
Stay hard!
-
I like suffering in the way that is
-
competitive
-
That brings out the absolute best in me and in everybody else. I want to see what you're made of
-
I want to see like almost like the Coliseum. Mm-hmm. In Rome
-
I mean you can't do it by writing the paper and I found out in the only message I'm gonna get across to people is
-
Once you change one thing...
-
"Your mindset"
-
You can attack everything
-
People know how do you keep grinding every day
-
You have to make those insecurities, those fears
-
Like when I was 300 pounds, I didn't have any "Drive". I was an insecure, lying kid... afraid.
-
I had to... look at my insecurities and
-
In my fear and find "Drive" in that. We're all looking for passion. Passion is all around you!
-
All the energy and fuel you need is right in yourself!
-
It's all there. You got a lot of stuff to do to overcome and you know
-
That's where I found it. I found it right there in my own insecurities.
-
I found "Drive" in my own insecurities
-
That's the most powerful thing in the world. When you can find Drive in your own
-
Doubt, Fear, Insecurities
-
You become very unstoppable.
-
I'm in a search for a feeling
-
I'm not in a search for a trophy
-
I'm not in search for love. I'm not in search for more followers on Instagram or social media
-
when I started this journey years ago and
-
I realized that I'm gonna be somebody and I'm searching for a feeling
-
a feeling of true victory for myself and
-
only myself the second I shut out the whole world and
-
realized that one thing that I am in this world alone.
-
I'm fighting this race by my seekest person on the planet Earth
-
my goal in life was
-
to in my mind believe I'm the hardest man alive
-
That's why the whole thing is can't hurt me
-
That's what it's about is about. Whatever you think you are
-
You have to make that dream a reality. That's where
-
the hard part is
-
There are lots of successful people in this world
-
who still feel empty inside
-
And they worry about still feeling empty
-
So they try to make another million...2 million...3 million
-
let's buy a new car, new house, new boat.
-
Let's buy more everything then at end of the day they still feel empty inside
-
for me...
-
I wasn't even successful. I was all empty
-
so I was trying to hide my insecurities.
-
You have to be "there"
-
Over but not there at the graduation
-
[Okay] ...you gotta be there in the worst part [The suffering] ...that you know all over and over again. You gotta live that in your mind
-
Just enough..., same thing with life
-
If you don't get inside your soul,
-
inside your heart and fix it
-
You will only go to war with yourself
-
Stay hard
