Why did why are you here on this planet? You live according to the principles of love compassion, you know appreciative joy, you know celebrating other people's Successes, but how do you overcome hatred and Confusion and just having a good heart Then I think that's what happened to me Then I start to get clear about what I like to do and how I can be of service How can I help other people? That we were wired for success, but it's how we relate to our experience that determines whether We're chipping away or we're you know, kind of burying of that sense of wholeness That we that were born with it just that we Forget it. We don't look inside. We're looking outside And so unless we're still and we think about it and we understand that I was born with this masterpieces No one can give it to me or take it away. It's it's an inside job And so if I look at what's right, it just it makes makes a lot of sense so it's whether you're coming from a place of Scarcity or I would say survival mode or coming from growth mode which has to do with yes I can't yes to life and I I have the capacity and the responsibility to Make it different but to make it make it better Having that faith that vulnerability that just see things that are hard to see Gotta get comfortable being uncomfortable So can you handle the truth? It's a question and if you can't then you if you see that that you can say well is if I'm going to change I'm gonna have to figure out how to deal with that discomfort until the point that I can see what I need to see then I can change it so as the persistence of Continuing to do something that you can do it is Is most of the work this is just continuing to make mistakes learn from mistakes, but the mistakes are viewed as feedback Not as I'm a failure, it's just an event now who we are So that error correction is really important and when you can see when you attributed this something you can learn Or change now you've got faith and confidence to do it Versus if you're seeing it like, oh, I'm just not strong enough. I'm not tall enough and all of that. That's just That's what I call the negative committee telling you. You can't do anything rather than saying well, let me see What can I what I can do so it's like a child learn how to walk right? Same thing Your life can change your life can be more than just a place it can be your future your success This change this change takes courage It takes courage to stand up and break down the aspects of your life that you know is holding you back Let your progress be idolized let it speak for itself Average becomes sort of like this slow asphyxiation It's almost like an anesthetic and that overtime would become kind of immune and dulled to the average that we're becoming I know this is true. At least for me. You probably experienced it yourself, too And so over time we sort of minimize where we're at in other words I'm a little pudgy instead of being know your fat ass, right, you know You don't magnify the degree to which the pain ought to be affecting you and so really what he means on That is listen, you're gonna get out of your life what you'll accept that's really difficult for people I think to understand is look what you think you're worth and what you're gonna tolerate is absolutely what you're gonna bring into your life and what the outward part of your life is gonna look like and so I live by that like I let myself sort of feel the pain and the difficulty of Being not where I want to be in whatever that areas were those would be my spirituality my relationships my money I let myself feel that pain because as you know, there's two motivators, right? There's the gaining of pleasure right wanting to go get something chasing the dream But then there's the avoidance of pain and for a lot of champions. That's a pretty big driving force for them And so at least for me, I I leveraged both of those things on me to get myself to take action one of the reasons I'm relatively fit is not just Peak State. I have an uncle and my family that died at 50 years old of a heart attacks my godfather My dad's only brother. I kind of resemble him and I look like a plan So on the way back from his funeral my reticular activating art attacks on the TV screen on the airplane I listen to music is the Oprah Winfrey Show. She's going through a new heart scan I've unplugged my headphones plug into this airplane one. I scheduled it I went in I had a world-class doctor who understood reasons and levers instead of just prescribing coolant. Only coach Well you need to do this you need to do this like doctors do it take his pill take this he understood leverage and reasons What you do is to take the scan, then you go to lunch you come back. I took the scan I went those I had a burrito I came back, and I'm in the LA when I walk in I sit down the doctor comes up and he says Oh my I can't believe these arteries are in that young body Got my attention we walk back in we sit down He could still go you need Crestor eat clean get out of here is know what an average doctor does right No wired me with huge reasons He goes, let me ask you a question I heard your wife's pregnant you have I said I have a son and he says do you want to be there when he graduates from high school? To be there for that day. I said, yes, sir. Yeah, he goes your wife's pregnant. What do you have it? I said a daughter. This is where you get a dad. He goes she was six months pregnant He goes do you um, would you like to walk her down the aisle on her wedding day? Are you okay that it's some other man? I Went what the Zahn this skin right like and he goes I want to be very clear with you if you keep going down the road you're going There'll be some other man with your son at graduation high school and a strangers walking your daughter down the aisle that's not even born yet on her wedding day and I went to him and he goes But if you do exactly what I tell you to do you'll be there And so to this day brother, there are mornings when I wake up not every morning. I don't want to go to the gym I go Bella's wedding Bella's wedding Bella's wedding so my Standards are high because of my big old reasons Other dudes may miss the gym that day cuz they're not gonna miss their daughter's wedding if they don't go, but I've convinced myself I will get emotional I've convinced myself on this my daughter's wedding so I will get my ass out of bed at 4 o'clock in the morning and I will get to that gym because my Reasons are bigger.
