I'm going to grind, I'm going to fight. I'm going to work,
I'm going to press toward, I'm going to learn, I'm going to do everything in my power every single day. I'm going to do everything in my power
to become a victor and not a victim. Let me tell you this the wolf that is on the hill is never as hungry as the wolf that is climbing the hill. And so you got to get hungry and you have to stay hungry. You have to guard your hunger. I need you to develop
a healthy dose of self-assurance. When you feel like you can't, when you want to let go, when you are surrounded by doubt, fear and anxiety you are going to have to
pull up your resume and remember all of the things that you have made it through. There is no excuse for not
living up to your fullest potential. No excuse what do you want? Somebody told you to just
graduate high school, graduate college, get a job, work that job the rest of your life, have kids, get married and die.
somebody told you that. What do you believe
you were destined to do? And then you got to spend
every single solitary day for the rest of your life going after that dream. What do you have to have? What is your dream? And when you think there's
nothing left in the tank look yourself in the eyes and say, I CAN I WILL I MUST The nightmare is to reach our 60s, our 70s, our 80s or even our deathbed and to talk about everything
we should have done. I should have done that,
I should have invested in this I should have made the relationship work,
I shouldn't have got a divorce. We sit around and talk about
all of our shoulds. We talk about all the things
we wanted to do but never got it done. That.. that's the nightmare, that's the nightmare
that we all must avoid. This is the time to establish your dream. All of the pain, all of the trauma, everything you have experienced, the turbulence you have to garner up all of that hunger. I'm talking about, you got to think of
everything you've ever wanted in your life and you got to put it toward that goal. And there are things that you
have been called to do that no one on earth has ever done. They said I’d never get to this point but here I stand. They warned that success is unlikely, that victory is improbable and maybe so. But if this was for everyone I wouldn't want it. They pointed to their own limitations and proclaimed them to be mine. But that’s the thing about limits they’ll exist wherever you place them, and I have placed mine behind me. See, human beings make things
unnecessarily complicated. Instead of drawing a direct line
from point A to point B, we create 100 reasons why it’s too hard, too tough We construct distractions There is no hard, there is no easy, there is the goal, the price that must be paid, and the eyes observing from a distance, wondering just maybe, if they could do the same The saying goes that a wolf need not
concern himself with the opinions of sheep. That those who watch and admire are often the first to throw stones,
to criticize, to condemn. But listening to them contradicts the very
thing that gives the wolf its power, its strength. His ascent is threatening not because he is like everyone else, but because he dares to be different. There will be a point when the mountains tower over you, the oceans obstruct your way, and the masses tell you no. Perfect Right now is not a decision
that involves debate. This is no democracy, this is a promise unfolding
before your very eyes. This is truth, the new reality. Its about embracing
what makes you different, not hiding from it. I’m fighting for separation, walking into what most avoid, in pursuit of a return
that most can only dream of. And as far as I’m concerned
you can either do the same or spend your life criticizing
and wishing that you did. Sheep stay within the confines
of what they know, angry at that those who left, who wanted more, yet angrier at themselves
for staying right where they are. This is all we get one rodeo, one opportunity So before you make your next move, look hard at your reflection and ask yourself,
“Are you a wolf, or a sheep?” Live accordingly How do you stay driven? I'm going to ask you a question,
how don't you stay driven? If you're so ambitious show me You want to be an anomaly
you have to act like one. Don't give a crap about tomorrow. I care about 36 months from now,
52 months from now, 83 months from now What did you do from Friday 5 PM
until Monday 7 AM? I'm just curious like, and I don't think
you shouldn't have a weekend but I think everybody's ambition actually is more predicated on
their actions than their words. My friends tell me all the time
they're so ambitious. And I’m like if that's true then you punt leisure and you punt concerts at Jones beach and you work. You can't believe how many people you know, how many people
used to say the word luck. That- that word luck has gone right back like nobody has the audacity
to say that to my face now and I love it. And that's why I did it. I did it,
I made it for you because you can watch and be like, okay. But I think yours is different,
I think a lot of theirs is different. It's because I’m not fancy about it. Document over create I’m super not interested in being fancy. I'm willing to work. I work harder than everybody in this room and I swear on my life I'm positive because you can only tie me. And so I’m just not fancy like, I’m going to win and I’m going to
continue to win and I’m going to be real big and I’m never going to
forget what I’m about and I like getting my hands dirty
and I'll answer that email and I’ll stop and have that conversation and I’ll take that pitch and I do unscalable
not the right use of my time 50% of my day every day
for the rest of my life because I love the dirt. I love the grind. I'll never get fancy. I don't like fancy
and so that's important to me. The second you think you've won somebody's gonna create- that’s so real that, you know, a lot of these cliches
and stereotypes they're real. There is no loss in going for it that... yeah, you might get made fun of
and you might have it in your own mind but I punted every
leisure activity in my life Nothing No weekends No vacations zero Nothing Nothing, it's my truth.
I didn't take a single vacation day. Never None Zero Zero Zero All my high school friends gone, because I wasn't around,
all my college friends, post college, gone. Girlfriends, nothing. All in. So what did I do? I worked I worked to such an extreme level. I'M going for it, I’M hustling
from 6 to 11 PM every day with every second allocated. There is no break, there's no, there's no
eat a salad and read reddit or watch YouTube that is not in my game. Getting your hands dirty
under your fingernails it's the game. The young are the future and if you notice trends like,
oh, they don't use email you can learn from them.
They watch a lot of YouTube. So, the two biggest things are
stop being soft and start actually working and getting your hands dirty
in the thing that you love. And number two pay attention to trends around
your friends. People aren't starting they're just not making. They're thinking, they're pondering,
they're strategizing they're debating I’m just doing at all times. I actually would tell you I fascinate
sometimes over losing everything and then having...
you guys write articles like, see, he wasn't that good,
he was so foolish. And then rising like a phoenix
and being like... hah! Because you need to be a practitioner to be good at what you do. I don't want to be a social media guru that reads a headline
from somebody else's tweet I know everything that Musically, Snapchat, Vine,
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram does period And I sit with all these gurus
that sell books too and all these social media experts
and corporations and startups, I sit with Facebook and Instagram in
meetings where their executives were wrong. Like I’m a practitioner I really know my stuff and that's important if you want to win you have
to be able to do that and way too many people lose that they forget what gets them there
and they're not keeping up with it. And the thing that
I do for a living is hard because these platforms are changing
every day, every second and a lot of things change. And the things that were tried
and true a week ago change. And in that arbitrage, in your
headline reading I make money. If you're complaining like,
look if you're happy and you've got student loans
and you've got mortgages and you work two jobs
but you're happy, good. The problem is there's so many millions
of people just sitting around complaining and then they go play
Madden for four hours. You have to deal with
the reality of the situation dwelling and pondering
and crying doesn't do anything and it especially doesn't do anything
in this Eco chamber. In this arena, there is no crying. You cry, you're just gonna lose. And I have bad news about
complaining and crying let me tell you something about
complaining and crying that's really really gonna hurt
for all you complainers out there nobody gives a crap. You had a packed day,
15 hour day, it got canceled What are you doing in that 15 minutes? And by the way, sometimes
those 15 minutes are absolutely worth calling your mom, calling your daughter,
facetiming with your kids but just making every minute count. Every minute has to count.
Every minute has to count. If you want so much because you just
don't have as many of them as you think. You just don't. The wolf on the hill is never as hungry as the wolf climbing the hill. It's not easy going it alone. But if you keep going, stay true to yourself. It will be worth it in the end. The hardest walk you can make
is the walk you make alone, but that is the walk that makes you the strongest. That is the walk that builds
your character the most. To all of you fighting battles alone. To all of you going against the grain, battling the naysayers Stay strong! Keep going! Stay strong! Keep going! This walk is hard. But the hardest walks
lead to the greatest destinations. The toughest climbs always
lead to the best views! It WILL be worth it in the end. And if you show what you are made of, the right people will show up in your life. You won't be a lone wolf forever. You have qualities only few can admire, because most don't possess. You have strength only few can understand, because most have never experienced. So don't give in Don't settle Don't lower your expectations
to fit into the world. You were born to STAND OUT. You were born to LEAD. Lead the pack. They say the wolf on the hill is never
as hungry as the wolf climbing the hill. Always be that wolf, climbing the hill. Always hungry for more. Always hungry to grow, to feed your mind and rise to the highest level YOU can take yourself. Never looking back Always looking forward, to the next feast. Feast of success, in whatever you do. It doesn't matter if you have
to walk alone for a while. It is much better to walk alone
in the right direction, than to follow the herd
walking in the wrong direction STAY STRONG! BE DIFFERENT! Your destiny is in your hands. Get out there and hunt it! You've always felt this something
that you've got within you. You've always felt this unexplainable urge to do something. The pure fact that you are
watching this right now while having unlimited videos
to your disposal means there is this thing
inside of you like an... itch, it's aching for your attention. It's the seed that wants to blossom. The bull that wants
to be freed from prison. Open the gates
and don't suppress it anymore, externalize your goals, go after them, hunt after them, chase after them, race after them it's your goal to put creative energy
into your desires. Guys, let's be real here what's going on with you? You already know where you want to go why are you sitting on your butts and making up excuses? Are you one of those talkers
telling everyone where you want to go, what you want to do but not taking any action? Hold up your panties, grow some balls and stop acting like a little girl
waiting for a daddy to get what she wants. Stop waiting for the perfect time to come to go and get what you want. Stop acting like a little baby waiting
for his mommy's nipple to get fat. Get up and go hunt your dream. Go hunt that animal you want to feast on
like the man that you are those days of helplessness have passed. You're not being defined by grief,
apathy or guilt anymore. Set yourself free man. See our society pretends like, every group is wired in series, all people are all wired in series. All must go if one bulb is defective. you're not one of those people online being defined by external influences, media, politics and ideals
based on others opinions. You are parallel wired, man. You're the one light that stays on and
gains more power when all the lights go out. As things get tough you see people around you
quitting or giving up that's the moment you start shining, you start encouraging others, you start giving them energies
to empower them. You don't take life force, you give life force. You don't drain this world's energy, you energize this world. Discipline and dedication are the foundation, the soil and the framework of success. It takes discipline
to hunt after your vision. It takes dedication to maneuver yourself
through the tough and thick forest while every moving branch
is trying to trip you while all the thick branches
you could hold on to support your so-called friends turn out to be
snakes that are trying to tangle you. It takes resilience to move
when you're hungry. It takes resilience to move when you're
tired and dehydrated on the battlefield. It feels like
sand scraping away fresh skin. The sun beating down against
your neck like oil and fire. The blisters and warts bursting into
a cluster of painful combustion. Your skull pounding and pounding
until your hair cracks opening up. The excruciating pain
of loneliness, betrayal and deceit all alone and no one around you all the cuts burning and stinging and it feels like two rocks grinding
while you're in the middle. It takes discipline to not give up then well, all your problems could be
taken away by just quitting. Come on! Quit, give up it's not human to take this kind of pain
erupting from every part of your body. Here's what no one knew,
you were hardened by every challenge. You created your own light
rays in dark nights. You were the lightning breaking
the hard rocks all around you. You endured every single part
of the endeavor so no one else would go through that pain. It takes a tremendous amount
of discipline to become successful whatever the terms mean to you You got to prepare yourself
for these battles in your mind. The moment you find your hacks
and the way your system works you turn that rough landscape
into the most beautiful scenery in which you move elegant and swiftly. You're now a creator of your world and achieved it with your internal power. This was a battle fully in your mind. This was a battle in which you are a victor and all it took was the right framework. Discipline and dedication
always lead to content and pride the right kind Discipline and dedication
are the foundation, the soil and framework of success. Every day there is a specific
decision you have to make. It's the first and it's the most
important decision because from it you effectively
roadmap your destiny. What I’m referring to is the choice to either
have a positive outlook or to allow negativity and doubt
to chart your course. It's a dilemma that truly is that simple. Every morning you choose how you want to view
the obstacles ahead of you and what you get out of life
will be very different depending on your decision. There's an old Cherokee legend
that touches on this conflict and in the story, there's an older man
he's talking to his grandson about life he explains that inside all people
there is this fight going on. The struggle consists of two wolves one manifests itself
through negative energy his anger, envy, sorrow, inferiority all that is evil. The other is joy, compassion, faith, truth all that is good. So he finishes explaining this the boy sits there
he thinks about it for a minute he asks his grandfather,
Well, which one wins? The grandfather replies whichever one you feed. What we sometimes forget is that we are the sole makers
of our own destiny there are always going to be
external factors whatever they may be - negative people,
tough circumstances, maybe a lack of resources they'll be there but they cannot dictate your happiness or your success unless you let them. Yeah, they may cause you
to alter your approach you might have to make adjustments that's good, that's how we develop,
that's how we improve but no one and nothing
writes your story but you. Your attitude, your emotions they directly coincide
with how you see the world. So anytime you feel
discouraged, negative, envious anything that's not positive just stop. Don't waste your time with thoughts that
aren't bringing you closer to your goal. There's just no value in it. Tony Robbins says this beautifully he says, "You have to be
the guardian of your own mind allowing only what will help you because God knows the world
will crush you if you let it." So take the wheel what you need to do tomorrow
when you wake up is look at yourself hard in the mirror, make a conscious decision
to feed the good wolf you'll be amazed
at how far it will take you.
