The comparative

You know, these moments of depression when things go wrong, once you overcome them, you become stronger from them and it's that moment in life later that is built upon failures and with success.

Adverbs of frequency

Success is never gotten on the first time usually.

To-infinitive

It's failure to failure to failure, learning from your failures from one to another to another, you know, trying, even if you get knocked down, you continue to try and continue to try, ensuring you never fail to try.

It's the mentality, bring it on motherfucker, I can take it.

I'm stronger than you think I am and everything you throw at me and all the hardships you throw at me, you might knock me down but I get back up and I'll be stronger for it.

It's that mentality that builds an iconic status that centuries from now people still talk about.

The small pitfalls in life, the deaths in families or a girl breaking up with you, getting fired from a job, losing your money, these are all lessons.

They really are, they're just the presence in a way but it's the perception of how you see that presence.

Do you allow it to destroy you or do you allow it to change you?

Is it a wake up call saying, hey, you got to get off this path and do something else?

It's a state of mind guys, it's not a state of reality.

If you're going through depression, you know, there is a chemical depression, you know, over time and stuff and I'm not a psychiatrist guys, I'm not going through that, I've never been to a psychiatrist, you know, I don't know about the drugs and everything else and I think one drug just masks another drug and if you need this drug then you need another drug and you go down this fucking drug war, you know, if you guys seen the Wolf of Wall Street, the fucker did uppers and he didn't bring downers and he did not coke here, he was just fucking drugged back and forth like playing ping pong with each other for high and low and acute, you know, or clean and we take charge of ourselves, same with supplementation and getting ready for cover shoots, people are like, hey, do you take water retention pills, do you take steroids, do you take this, do you take that?

No, I don't take any of that shit because I cannot rely on that every single time for success.

One day my body might reject it or maybe I'm holding too much water and the water pills I always use, I always tell me aren't working and then my reputation is on the line and I can't provide.

I don't like that scenario, that scenario is a bustling situation, I can never repeat success that way.

A true successful module takes the element of risk or any kind of luck or any kind of intangible third party things like your girlfriend can, you're giving her too much power, lover, but she does not create you, you must be who you are, she enhances you but without her you are still yourself, still strong, still capable, she cannot be your kidney's heel, your crunch, she doesn't deserve that, it's too much pressure, if you really loved her you wouldn't put that much responsibility on her, there are times in life where you lean on one and they lean on you, but it's a temporary thing, it's not a permanent thing.

Same with getting ready for shoots or competitions, you guys going to see shows and stuff, you can't take steroids, you can't take water retention pills, you can't take all these things to try to get ahead of the system because one day it's not going to be there for you.

You can't provide everything with confidence when you're a coach, I need to talk to my man, he needs motivation, man if you're not really a champion, you better cut that trophy in half, get him the apple baby, because you aren't really everything, you got to find a system of success where you are one, from start to finish and everything in between, you control all the modules, if you control them all then you can repeat them all, and you keep repeating them all then you start to have achievements, you're going down the path, hard work produces an outcome, hard work produces a higher outcome, hard work produces a greater outcome, that's success man, and true happiness runs parallel with progress, that progress is every day you're getting better, yeah you fail, you run a little further, progression runs parallel with happiness, depression for one, one is the current tense of a word called regret, depression is the present tense of a word called regret, and if you continue to go down that path, where there is no progression, no, there also is no happiness, no progression, it's like a water that's stagnant, it's not moving, you're not in motion, you're sitting there wondering what am I going to do, what am I going to do, I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do, nothing comes from a set of states, you've got to get up and go, how do you beat depression man, if you feel lost, everything else man, it's dark and there's no way out of everything else, it's, it's, it's, you've lost your perspective of life, yeah that phone call that you get through the good news, maybe it happens for you and it kind of jump starts you, it's like the, uh, those pallets that put on you and die and it's, you know, like they shock you, you know, jump start, maybe you get lucky that phone call, maybe good news comes your way, but let's say that doesn't happen, you cannot do that every single time, because you will get depressed over and over again, it's part of life, it's part of the challenge, and you should welcome, because it's really a tool of discovery, like I said, that you can learn so much from, if you're strong enough to face it and learn from it, most people hide from it, like self-care, you feel so familiar, there's hope for somebody to come help them, but if that person doesn't come, it gets deeper and deeper, it's a cancer, it can't, it can't cure itself, how do you  Help me fight depression, I lost 100 pounds, I lost 300 pounds, I lost 200, every single day, dedication, total different mindset on life, thank you, I love that note, thank you bro, you're the reason why I had that sight, man, if that's all it is, one person that changes, it's all worthwhile, man.
