STAY FOCUSED - Motivational Speech

what is controlling your thoughts what is enslaving you is it the television set feeding your mind images of what life should be is it the internet drawing you in and controlling your time is it drugs or alcohol numbing your brain diminishing your desires or is it weakness a lack of discipline that prevents you from accomplishing what you want to accomplish wherever focus goes energy flows so why don't we tap into that power now for your business in life so many people have lost their day to distraction what are some things you need to immediately stop doing in your life is it social media is it watching seven seasons of a show every week what do you need to stop doing to Take Back Control of life also what do you need to start doing and what do you need to start doing every day every week every month every year to be on your A game discipline buys you freedom to do what you want sacrifice leads and gains followed don't look for any gains where there's been no sacrifice don't wake up and look for no game don't look for your game to improve don't looking for the record to improve without sacrifice there are no gains you can't make millions of dollars if you don't make millions sacrifice you're gonna need to cut some fat if you want life to change if you want to show me you want to win that bad pack your calendar because everything is based off of activity very few people want to show their calendar because if they did you would realize who really wants to win that and who doesn't it's mathematically impossible for you not to win at the highest level if your calendar is packed from day till night every single day the entire dessert day after day after day after day after day without you winning champions are focused on the goal they don't have time to be doing stuff that's not going to help you toward the goal and so what you're focusing on throughout the course of the day it has to change what you're looking at it when you're reading what you're watching the conversation you have you must now be focused on your dreams you must be focused on your goals when you are great you don't focus on a week when you are great you don't focus on a month when you are great we don't focus on here you concentrate on the 24 hours that's in front of you and you land and the problem with some of y'all is you want somebody else to support your dream it's yours it's your dream if you wanted to have it get your butt up and make it happen if you wanted to have it rise and grind if you wanted to have it you won't have to do what I do and that's get up at three o'clock in the morning cause it's my time this is my moment tomorrow tomorrow ain't no such thing as tomorrow we only got today I ain't putting my dream on nobody else and I don't care what nobody think about my dog or Dream It's Your Dream nobody's gonna see it like you do it nobody's gonna be as dedicated to it as you are it's your dream and they don't have to understand and they don't have to like it it doesn't make a difference it's your dream and you my friend have been given the task to make it happen and you can't let anything stop you from doing what you were called to do everybody wants to prize but nobody loves the process Everybody Wants To Be A Champion but nobody's willing to put in the work that it takes to be a champion everybody wants to hold up the trophy and say man I did it but nobody is willing to put in the work that it takes to do it I love the process I love the thought of working for what I want and I firmly believed you never supposed to wish for it more than you're willing to work for it your expectations never supposed to exceed your effort but a lot of people they wish and they're not willing to work and the great thing about life life has a funny way of testing all of us and seeing how bad we really want what it is that we say we want the world does not reward mediocrity you know what the rest of the world wants to pay you for be the best at one thing [Music] if you know how to concentrate your efforts and be focused on one thing you have an edge if you can be focused on one thing and I look at everything else that everybody else is looking at 50 different philosophies 75 different ways to make money 19 different streams of income if you can figure out if we go here all of that stuff's going to come your way but if you go chase all the other stuff like everyone else's you're going to miss the whole point of winning a life because you can't concentrate you show me anyone today who knows how to concentrate I'll show you someone that nobody wants to compete with winners complain winners want to hit themselves talk Champions do not complain why because they're focusing on what they say they want to do as a goal you're not putting energy you're not commanding your gift you're not commanding your opportunity you're not commanding your resources you're not commanding your dreams and goals you look at them jokers once every three months if that you better be looking at them jokers every day when your focus goes your energy flows I need us to look at all the possibilities all of the potential that I need us to go for it every single day Monday grind Tuesday grind Wednesday grind Thursday grind Friday grind Saturday grind Sunday grind every opportunity that exists I need you to go after it if you want to be successful if you want to dominate in the area you've got to let everything go with that thing you pursuing you can't chase two rabbits and catch both of them so you put your attention on one and go after it there's no capability difference between you and someone you consider to be at home ultimate role model of success the only difference is they've learned a manager State and they've learned to control their mental focus whatever we concentrate our focus on consistently and strive to learn from we will get great at I don't care what it is if you focus on it daily and you strive to do better you're going to make little distinctions that'll make you more and more effective every single day you should figure out what is it you desire in life and figure out the steps to get there and start working a plan to get there and minimizing everything else getting very clear on the mission very clear on the mission and working the plan everything else guess what it gets a no this is the truth of success most people can't succeed because they can't deal with all the old [ __ ] pull them off the game plan you're gonna have to get real [ __ ] comfortable sticking to your own plan and telling them no when they want to go out on Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday so if you want to win whether it's this year or next year whatever you're gonna have to get real comfortable keeping your head on on your plan and put the time into making yourself happy if you plan to shake of this world then you have to hustle that is the secret that is the reason Michelangelo said if you knew how much work I put into my art you would not call it genius you know how hard I want to get here I'll put in too many hours I swear too much blood too much tear I worked hard to get here then nobody give me this I didn't grow up with wealth I work for this sweat blood tear I earn every dime I get I work for this I put in time I have to stop making excuses they have to stop letting into distractions we need to stop getting unfocused everyone wants to win but few want to prepare if you want to put in the work that it truly takes if you want to really love the process most of us are just addicted and obsessing the result of what we want really the magic is in the being and the process the magic is in the day-to-day the magic is in the work the magic is in the practice the magic is in the moment when we become the winner before we even won the first level to success in life listen to me the very first level is you seeing it like it's clear to you you know exactly what you want you know exactly when you want it you know exactly what it tastes like you know what it looked like you know what it smells like before you really blow up blow up and you get success you literally have it in the palm of your hand without having it you got to know what it looks like tastes like feel like because you don't you're gonna compromise I don't alter my mission at hand no one's with me because I don't allow them to it's got to be that way it's Gotta Be unconditionally focused what that means is that you are in and you believe in yourself no one can change that in order to have unbelievable choice and options in your life in your pursuit of your dream you must eliminate them you must shrink your focus down to one thing one business one focus and one time and master it and get great at it for an extended period of time don't stop focused one idea one and make it work make it your priority and stick with it no matter what the irony of life is that the more you shrink your options in pursuit of your dream the more it'll open them up in your life later what are the things that are stealing your focus who are the people that are stealing your focus and begin to eliminate these distractions get laser focused and obsessed on what you want be starving and hungry to get it be desperate to get it the combination of desperation and hunger with laser focus over an extended period of time is the formula to be great at something make a damn schedule and stick to it so that you have the day you want that's the trick it's like okay I've got tomorrow if I was gonna set it up so it was the best possible day I could have what would it look like well then you schedule that so if you want more free time you need more discipline time more scheduled time towards the things that matter the more vacation time for you and your family that's how you get ahead what's your distraction just be honest are you distracted by ESPN are you distracted by movies Netflix video games gossip are you distracted with things that don't matter in your life ask yourself truthfully your big goals and dreams can you get laser obsessively focused almost to its exclusive for an extended period of time I'm talking about a year two years three years four years five years even a decade towards something you want so badly you want it Like Oxygen it's like you want it like you want to live are you extendedly laser focused on it or do you get distracted easily our obsessions become our possessions but we won't possess them if we're not truly obsessed turn your damn TV off turn your phone off a lot too does it really matter what's going on with the Kardashians right now don't be so obsessed with them be obsessed with your own reality TV program called your own life this suffering this sacrifice you're making is an indicator of progress it's an indicator of obsession suffering and sacrifice and hard work is an indication of progress towards our dreams the price you will pay for not making your dream come true is far greater than the one that you will pay to make it come true you'll pay that one the rest of your life and so ask yourself what you're willing to risk what's the price you're willing to pay stop negotiating the price it's a freeing experience to totally commit when you totally commit to a business to your Fitness it's a freeing powerful it's almost like removing Kryptonite from your life when you totally commit can you do that the people around Georgia it's costing too much it's costing too much you guys are going no it's worth it I dare you to work on yourself for six months I need to shut out the world I do to shut out all the distractions I dare you to give up everything that is keeping you from your dream every day when I wake up I got all kind of Demands you got all kind of Demands and the reason why you're not where you want to be to take it all other people's stuff before you spend enough time with yourself to get to know you and get to know what you want and what you should do come on y'all y'all heard a million times in case of an emergency put the dog on mask on yourself first and the problem with most of you in this room you're giving it to everybody else first and then you pissed when you give it to everybody else first and you come up short and you wonder why you came up short because you gave it to everybody else first take care of you you guys didn't understand what you don't have to do you don't have to work hard you don't have to eat right you don't have to sleep right you don't have to do more than what's required of you you don't have to be a good teammate you don't have to be a good leader you don't have to do anything that you don't want to do but you also don't have to win you don't have to be a successor life you don't have to help your team win you don't have to play so the greatest things in life they've sacrifice discipline and that's why so few people achieve great things because they don't want to sacrifice they don't want to discipline for some grader so you see all these people that have great things in life that you look up to it's because they were sacrificed and disciplined long before you ever knew them every day do something that moves you toward that goal that keeps that goal alive and insight and in Focus however small or insignificant that step might seem take it do it make it happen because that goal isn't going to achieve itself it is all on some of y'all so caught up on the game that you don't get it it is in practicing it isn't eating right it isn't making good decisions that you look a certain way it is how you practice it is what you do that makes you look like you look it is the process of the grind that shaped you and forms you is not the game and that's why most of y'all get beat in the cave or make mistakes in the game because you think grinding is what happens when the sun comes out you think Brothers will happen when the lights come on you think right is what happens when people get in the stage that's not grind the real grind is in the dark when nobody sees you when nobody knows what you're doing when you studying without coach when you put in those extra wraps when you're watching those videos and you getting inspired when you change your music it's the process that makes you sweet you concentrate on winning you concentrate on dominate listen to me focus on this stuff and when we focus on that that's what our energy is gonna go so all the little stuff you talking about all the little social media kind of it off cut it off do what you're supposed to do you ain't no boy no more get off social media it's killing you stop Netflix who are you watching watch you cut the TV off it's gonna be there you got a job to do that's what you're getting paid for have some pride cut off the TV son cut that dog on football game up it ain't doing nothing for you they making millions you not more stuff comes to you when you execute son I hate when people give 70 or they want the life of somebody that's given us a challenger your life is where it is because of the percentage that you're giving if you hit a tree a thousand times in a thousand different spots the tree is not gonna fall but if you hit a tree a thousand times in that same exact spot you're gonna come to the ground your problem is you did hit it a thousand times but in a thousand different places you need to do me a huge favor stop trying to be deep I need you to do the exact same thing every single day for the next 10 15 20 years and watch that tree come down and watch you go from zero to a multi-million dollar company nothing's changed guys I'm doing the exact same thing I was doing 20 years ago I just keep doing it and your problem is you're not intentional and deliberate you wake up on Monday and you might be strong but by Wednesday are you here when I'm telling you you're not intentional and deliberate you are hoping that the best is gonna happen to you and the best never happens to you you got to be intentional and deliberate whether you're making money or not making money you got to decide that you're going to do something and you got to do it every Monday every Tuesday every Wednesday every church is a problem with some of you in this room you're not intentional deliberate you're a good person to just hope the good stuff is gonna happen to you you still got work to do stay on that basketball court stay on that football field call the homies texting and calling and trying to make you feel bad about being so focused it's grind season homie it's not about today it's about the future there's only two ways you can be you can be the person who learns a little bit who does a little bit and then who decides that this it really isn't for them it moves on to something else it repeats that cycle over and over and over again or you could be the person who's committed you could be the person who says this is going to [ __ ] work no matter what happens no matter how frustrated I get no matter how angry I get no matter what happens in the world no matter what I'm [ __ ] doing this those are the people that are going to win you gotta stop telling yourself that you're doing enough you have to do more in life it's never enough until you feel this overwhelming feeling of man I'm out working the cloud I'm not working everybody I'm doing more once you get there that's when you [ __ ] know you've done enough you gotta do your best work or you're at least motivate so those days you don't want to do it you got a second you have to do it people who do stuff consistently and on time they surpass people who challenge it and gift it you guys have got to believe in yourself headstrong mentally tough it's the only way for the [ __ ] here in life winners the difference between them and The Spectators in the winners have a belief that overrides the crowd's disbelief every single time everybody is so strong learning from the previous mistakes and make it happen winners fail a million times what makes it a winner is that they believe it their head's strong nothing's gonna stop that there's no excuse for not being the hardest worker yeah if someone let me figure a stronger faster quicker young or whatever else but there is no excuse to not be the hardest game worker there no longer are we gonna accept Rhymes and societies around the reason that we are average average is a weak mentality we must believe it so much so that we're arrogant about it we must be pissed off for excellence the easy route never pays well the only route in life that pays well is the Hard Rock you working out you want to die happening in you feel the pain happening in your legs as you rep out one more squat because it'll be all the more pleasurable when you reach the inevitable other end of the spectrum where you're laying in your head I really went hard I really went hard on that set I really went hard in school I really went hard in my career I really went hard in life go hard yeah we have two voices in our mind it's that one voice that we love to hear it's that soft [ __ ] that says sleep the [ __ ] it's okay well there's another [ __ ] voice that wakes you up in the middle of the night it's that demon voice that Whispers in your [ __ ] ear that says get up [ __ ] you're not good enough you gotta work [ __ ] harder you haven't put enough time in it's that voice you want to run away from if that voice you don't want to [ __ ] hear but guess what it's that voice you need to [ __ ] listen to people put out goals dreams and aspirations and what they want to accomplish but you very rarely hear people say what they're willing to sacrifice in order to make it happen they'll tell you to go with the dream the aspiration they'll tell you they want to be elite they'll tell you they want to be great but they're not going to say imma stop going out on Friday night they're not gonna say I'm a sacrifice and I'm gonna stay late it's time to stay focused man it is time it is time to go from mediocre to meteoric it's time to decide clubs partying trying to fit in and socialize rub elbows with everybody so people can stop calling you weird why are you so anti-social because I'm trying to get it why are you staying on the basketball court so much because I'm trying to get it the more weird you are is a reflection of how committed you are to focusing on your molding and shaping and developing your ideas and your crap so that when it's time for you to make your rounds You're Gonna Fly well they criticize and make fun of you you work endlessly to shut them up with your results the best best revenge is massive success a true God mentality is not enough you made to the NFL it's not enough you made a 5k with a 10K if that nothing became a doctor be a better doctor if not enough to not spit the crown go out there and do something with it never do the bare men be different try to be 10 better than you were last week so if you run it 30 miles a week run 33 if you're swimming 500 meters it's been 550. I'm talking about grits I'm talking about endurance just having more stamina than they got in order to get to the next level you gotta sacrifice listen to me there are no Shortcuts To Success there are no discounts to success it's always sweat it's always blood it's always here you always have to give all to be the best yes it's ours what I ask for and I'll do whatever it takes to maintain it it is not easy but I'm not to quit I'm not about to give up if you're not willing to do it every single day you're not gonna beat the man that's bullet every single day I'm not the best but they have not outworked me I'm not the best I'm a beast and oftentimes when you're going up against other beasts sometimes they just wanted more than you wanted they're not more talented than you they just know what they out there for you gotta find something within and that's gotta push you and that's gotta drive you and when you find your why you find a way to make it happen at all times when you want to quit you make sure you know all times hours and days you sacrifice for your best
