Future simple

Kings, I don't know a lot, but at the age of 35, these harsh truths, I know for sure, they are cheat codes that will give you an unfair advantage in every area of your life.

The imperative

So listen close and don't learn this too late.

Harsh truth number one, you have three seconds before people decide whether they like you or not.

There has never been a person gifted enough to have a second chance to make a first impression.

You know it's cute when we tell kids don't judge a book by its cover, but when you grow up you realize that book publishers actually spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on focus groups and designers to create the best looking cover.

Harsh truth number two, school will make you a living, but self-education will make you a fortune.

You see the system is not broken, it's meant to be like that.

They never wanted you to be successful, so you have to go after it.

Harsh truth number three, clothes don't make the man, but they give him a good start.

You see, as much as I'd love to wear sweatpants in business meetings, I understand one thing, that life is a stage and the best actors get paid.

So you better make sure your costume fits the role you want to play.

In other words, dress like you want to be addressed, period.

Harsh truth number four, but the best fashion statement is a nice body.

It's rare today, yet it will never go out of style.

See most people claim they work out for health, yeah right.

The truth is most people just want to look good naked.

But see most people don't have the knowledge to achieve this.

Most people run on a treadmill day after day, year after year, never achieving any real results.

They want to get in shape, but haven't determined what shape.

Men, lift weights three to five times a week, hit each body part twice a week, eat food that rots, get seven to eight hours of sleep, and you will achieve your dream body.

You don't need ozempic, you need commitment.

Harsh truth number five, we are judged in three ways, how we look, how we sound, and what we say.

I want you to take a good look at the person next to you, go on.

How we look is 55%, how we sound is 7%, and what we say is 38%.

Now we talked about how we look, now let's talk about how we sound.

You see, nothing will improve your confidence and self-esteem than learning how to speak.

Learn how to get your point across, tell stories, and connect, and you will move up in your industry faster than any other activity you can do.

Harsh truth number six, now here's a crazy study for you.

They asked 1,000 parents and 1,000 teachers, who is responsible for developing the self-esteem in children?

72% of parents said the teachers were, 78% of the teachers said the parents were.

See this is just like life, everybody is blaming somebody else, nobody is taking responsibility.

See real men take responsibility for everything that happens in their life, the way they look, the money in their bank account, the position at their job, the way that other people treat them.

You see, blaming is draining, it's basically giving away your power.

When you take ownership, you keep your power and you dictate your fate.

Harsh truth number seven, if you don't find and live your purpose, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

See you are not here to just work, pay rent, and then die, that is not your purpose here.

But if you don't find your purpose, that is exactly what's going to happen.

See you can make money, you can make all the money, but you can't make time, you can't get that time back.

That's why they say never become too good at something you hate, because the world will make you do it for the rest of your life.

This is why I created the purpose formula.

See if you're struggling to find your purpose, or maybe don't even think you have a purpose, or maybe you're starting a new chapter in your life, I will tell you that finding your purpose is a simple matter of putting the right pieces into an equation.

Harsh truth number eight, go where you're celebrated, not tolerated.

One of the largest and longest studies in US history is the Harvard Grant Study.

They did this study over 75 years, spent $20 million and tracked the lives of over 268 men, and they found one thing, you ready for it?

They found that people with deep connections are more successful at work, live longer, and are happier.

So remember this, you can't change the people around you, but you can change the people around you.

Never hang on to bad friends just because you've known them for a long time.

Harsh truth number nine, your mornings are sacred.

They are for affirmations, not information, meditation, not social media agitation.

See when you wake up and you start responding to messages, you're playing defense.

When you start your day in alignment, you're playing offense.

Think about this, scientists have concluded that the first seven years of a child's life will dictate how he or she will turn out.

If a day is like a mini life, then the first two hours of your day will dictate how your day turns out.

So inject positive energy into your morning and you will feel the effects throughout your entire day.

Harsh truth number 10, your morning routine is meaningless if you don't have a good night routine.

So many people obsess over the morning routine and they sleep on the night routine, pun intended.

It's like, if you don't have a good night's sleep, then you won't have a good day.

So get you a good night routine, set an alarm, not for when you want to wake up, but for when you want to go to bed.

Lay your clothes out the night before and write your to-do list the night before.

Finish your day before it starts and you will set yourself up for success.

Take a photo of it and I guarantee you will have the best sleep you ever had in your life.

Which brings me to number 11, if you're not being grateful, you're wasting your life.

People who are grateful are more intelligent.

They live longer and they make more money.

This is why I created the Three Times Happier Journal.

I spent years working on it and I think it's the best journal on the market.

But honestly, I don't care what journal you use.

Even if you just use a piece of paper, a blank sheet of paper, write down three things that you're grateful for every morning and it'll change your life.

One sad Harvard study showed that 83% of people in the US do not set goals for their life.

14% only think about them and just 3% write them down.

If you're in the 3% club, there's a 300% greater chance that you actually meet your goals.

If you shoot for nothing, you will hit it every single time.

If you kind of want something, you will get kind of results.

Harsh truth number 13, you should either have a supportive partner or no partner at all.

You see, the best relationships are not 50-50.

Each person giving their all, giving their heart to support the other to become the best version of themselves.

Love if, love because of, and love period.

You find somebody that's a love period, hang on to them.

Harsh truth number 14, this brings me to the best relationship advice I ever got.

See, so many people say, I take care of you and baby, you take care of me.
