I AM THE BEAST | Best Gym Motivational Video 2019 - Bodybuilding Compilation 2 Hour Long

when you get up in the morning don't think just roll out of bed go in your life cycle or go on a bicycle ride or go to the gym workout you know that's what you have to do and then read something and learn something so don't even think about it stay hungry as soon as you think that you're perfect that's when you screw i gotta get better i gotta lose more weight i gotta trim down my tummy i gotta get bigger calves i gotta get bigger deltoids so if you're not quite reaching your goal because you didn't do everything that you could do you have time you make the time [Music] too much is not enough if i fall down i have no fear fainting in the gym because i know it's it could happen i threw up many times while i was working out but it doesn't matter because it's all worth it stay hungry i do everything that i can to be a winner and to get the body that i envision if you do something then do it go all out you have time you make the time you can do it you can do it you can be the greatest do it go for it i looked forward to another thousand reps of sit-ups i looked forward to another 500 pounds of of a leg press or squat i looked forward to doing more and more curls until my arms fall off why because i knew that every rep that i did and every set that i did and more weights that are lifted i get one step closer to turning that vision into reality you can do it why do you want to work out what is your goal if i can see it and if i can believe it then i can achieve it you know everything seems to be always impossible until someone does it they want to be mr universe they want to be the greatest bodybuilder of all time to win the championship over and over and over again and to lift the trophy overhead so that was a great goal you have to have a goal you can be the greatest you can do it i wanted to make sure that out of the 24 hours of the day that i don't waste one single hour because hours were too precious you have time you make the time little victories add up and that is what gives you then ultimately confidence you can be the greatest stay hungry we all fail the key thing is to keep in mind what is your goal and keep looking at that as you get up and dust yourself off work your butt off it is so important that you work your butt up don't ever look for shortcuts and this nfl football player comes up to me because guys can ask you a question how do you keep that dog mentality i said let me ask you a question when you were younger what did you want to be he said a nfl football player but once i got there i lost that dog mentality he had a finish line in his brain guess what a true dog mentality i have a dog at home he never gets full it's not enough you made to the nfl if not enough you ran a 5k with a 10k if that enough you became a doctor be a better doctor it's not enough you lost 50 pounds go out there and do something with it guess what in 109 out here but guess what it's not enough stay hard [Music] today i was wondering if this guy passes me in the car it's about 100 degrees out here 70 humidity and the guy comes back around looks at me he pulls his car by me and says why are you out here i said because you're not sometimes your motivation needs to be because no one else wants to do it we need doctors we need dentists we need teachers we also need savages this message i do is nothing to everybody someone say that soft [ __ ] about do you have sunscreen on this message is dangerous it's too hot i'm not asking you to be like me do you stay hard [Music] your mind's getting softer we do that shift everything in life a lot of you are trying to find inspiration and motivation with a depressed mindset you'll find inspiration by not living in a drip of life you need to live in the grip of life to find inspiration put challenges in front of yourself when you put a challenge in front of yourself and you attack it that's when you find inspiration repetition every day stay hard so the other day i got an email from this lady she said she truly enjoyed my book but as she read it she thought i was just crazy so after she read it she put the book down and started living her normal life just going back paying bills going back to work complaining about [ __ ] a few days later she has time to think about the book and it scared her she thought well maybe this guy isn't crazy and that's what scared the most maybe he's here trying to show us human potential what we're all capable of doing a lot of people like to put titles on other people who are doing extraordinary things it makes them feel better about themselves give them a good idea free card i'm not crazy i'm just not like you in sports there's a thing out there called load management a lot of us like to load manage our lives when you do that you're gonna find yourself right at normal get off that stay hard [Music] with success in life comes more haters don't make them hurt your feelings use it for fuel use them for energy in times of need put them on mental roller decks in your mind and when you don't want to do [ __ ] roll through your brain pull up that person who said you couldn't do something you weren't fast enough good enough smart enough use it for energy instead of killing them with kindness torture is success in life we have to continue pushing past the odds use everything this world has to give you for fuel stay hard [Music] and anybody not just navy seals but anybody that can accomplish anything that is hard the only separator is is that they really want to be there there's some people that get inspired and that inspiration moves them to try to do something but the inspiration is very high right now in this nice environment we're in a nice environment i watch a movie about some bad asses you're inspired but the second you're not in this environment and you're actually doing what inspired you that suck factor is now real you're now there and only those people who have been there a million times in their minds and have lived in that water and have suffered a million times and realized my legs may break my knee may break my bones will hurt i will be the coldest i've been in my life i will be miserable and accept that when you get a whole situation in life your mind immediately says get everybody's best even if you want to be there but it starts to have all these different questions in your mind that one second it says okay why are you here why are you doing this why this why that and then you start to say yourself if you don't want to be there that bad i have a beautiful life i'm not gonna break my body up to do this your mind starts to say yeah this is stupid but if you have if you are already knowing that this is going to happen to you you have all the answers to these questions that your mind starts to give you when you're in suffer mode try to be ten percent better than you were last week so if you're running 30 miles a week 133 if you're swimming 500 meters you spin 550 [Music] the more you walk away from accountability the weapon you become find yourself in the grip of life you can't find yourself by doing nothing so there's a lot of pockets of weakness nowadays and we try to fill those pockets with lies i did it for many years so i'm not here in colorado for a conference i go to the gym and this trainer calls me over to talk to this group of people he's training he says hey man we doing out here so i tell him he says what kind of work i should be doing i said what work i'm doing i'm climbing this mountain three thousand feet three miles but i do that every day so the next day i'm out looking for him didn't see him a couple days later look before didn't see him so here i am on the mountain again climbing it it there's a gondola that takes you upstairs down i'm going up i see a gondola who's about five minutes to the top i look up at gondola i see him face pressed up against the window looking at me or eyes me don't talk about it be about it practice what you preach stay hard [Music] i like suffering in the way that is competitive that brings out the absolute best in me and everybody else i want to see what you're made of i want to see like almost like the colosseum mm-hmm in rome you can't do it by writing a paper and what i found out and the only message i want to get across to people is once you change one thing your mindset you can attack everything people know how do you keep grinding every day you have to make those insecurities those fears like when i was 300 pounds i didn't have any drive i was an insecure lying kid afraid i had to look at my insecurities and in my fear and find drive in that we all looking for passion passions all around you all the energy and fuel you need is right in yourself it's all there you got a lot of stuff to do to overcome and you know that's where i found it i found it right there i'm on insecurities i found drive in my own insecurities and that's that's the most powerful thing in the world when you can find drive in your own doubt fear insecurities you become very unstoppable i'm in search for a feeling i'm not in the search for a trophy i'm not a search for love not so much for more followers on instagram or social media when i started this journey years ago and i realized that i'm going to be somebody and i'm searching for a feeling a feeling of true victory for myself and only myself the second i shut out the whole world and realized that one thing that i am in this world alone i'm fighting this race by myself weakest person on the planet earth my goal in life was to in my mind believe i'm the hardest man alive and that's why the whole thing is can't hurt me that's what it's about it's about whatever you think you are you have to make that dream a reality but that's where the hard part is there's a lot of successful people in this world who still feel empty inside and they're wondering why they still feel empty so try to make another million 2 million 3 million let's buy a new car a new house new boat let's buy more of everything the end of the day it still feel real empty inside for me i wasn't even successful i felt empty so i was trying to hide my insecurities you have to be there over but not there at the graduation okay you got to be there in the worst suffering that you know over and over again you got to live that in your mind dressing it up same thing with life if you don't get inside your soul inside your heart and fix it do you want to go to war with yourself stay hard the number one question that i'm asked everywhere i go around the world is always how is it that i stay so motivated what are the motivating factors in my life that keep me in this psychological space um number one will be gratitude i try and find a way to be grateful for every single thing i have every single day wins losses loved ones you name it my life wasn't always this way it was much different many moons ago so these days i'm grateful to the bone for everything the other thing is hunger you always hear people say well it's about being number one about being at the top or how about this um you're always gonna find somebody out there who's gonna work harder well i don't know that that might be [ __ ] but i know no one is gonna be hungrier than i am uh and i try and find a way to be grateful so i hope that helps it's two o'clock in the morning if you're watching this you better be doing something productive today very intense workout hardcore very heavy uh creating and destroying breaking down and building up that very dense thick muscle we always talk about hunger and how you always want to outwork your competition regardless of how successful you may be lucky enough to be you want to be hungry if you know what it's like to be hungry you'll never be full he said it's one thing to be hungry it's another thing when you're starving for greatness and starving for success and i love that because it immediately clicked it's in my dna i know what it's like to operate every single day regardless of the success that i've been a lucky son of a [ __ ] to achieve i operate every day as if i'm starving so keep starving at four

got no sleep off the jet came right here to the west coast iron paradise in about five minutes this place is going to be cranking and i'm going to get it on i heard something though that i want to share with you guys as we all look to finish our week strong on this friday a buddy of mine named inky johnson on instagram you should follow him he said perspective always drives your performance and i love that and it's so true look i'm tired you're tired i got a baby at home she's gonna wake up in an hour looking for daddy i got a baby mama at home she's gonna give birth any day to my third daughter i got rampage open and worldwide i got a lot of business to take care of but i thought instead of going to sleep let me come to the gym get my workout in and uh clear my mind so i can attack the day again perspective always drives your performance think about that apply it and finish strong don't ever confuse effort with results we've got to give the effort at the end of the day the only thing that matters is the results so give the effort and always stay focused on the results happy new year it is uh january 1st we are kicking off this new year 2018 very strong just finished leg day the work never stops you always got to keep going always i go hardcore when i train i don't have time to go the bathroom i find a bottle i pee in it and i keep training like a beast it ain't about being the biggest and the baddest it's about a mindset to be the best i'll work your competition and dominate at what you do so somebody just asked me a cool question said dj you're on top where could you possibly go from here and you always talk about outworking your competition who's your competition it's a great question thank you for the compliment by the way uh i'm fortunate enough to be on top but anytime you reach the top you always want to make sure that you have the desire to raise the bar and take the brass ring to places it's never been that's the key with being on top just because it's never been done doesn't mean it can't be done and in terms of competition great question everyone's my competition but a fundamental key that i've learned over the years is i'll share with you my number one competition is me it's always you versus you you got to be the one to get up every morning be disciplined put in the consistent daily hard work because that gains success no coach no trainer no mentor uh no boss can do it you versus you always be the hardest workers in the room and it's just a reminder that regardless of how successful we may be or how successful we're not but we want to be we always want to be the hardest workers in the room it always leads with hard work there's no substitution for hard work thus working out at 11 o'clock at night when i know my competition is asleep no matter how many hours i've flown no matter how many miles we've traveled regardless of what country it is the first thing i need to do to get ready for the work day is i gotta find the gym you have worked your ass off and you are lucky and fortunate to be number one you have scratched clawed and fought your way to the top don't ever stop because there's always somebody else who's willing to take your place they may not be as good as you they may not be as hungry as you they may not have the mana deep in here as badly as you do but they're always there so you feel confident you'll be willing to put in the work tonight that they won't so tomorrow you accomplish what they can't turn the heaters on in the gym now let's start finish your week strong start your week strong just do whatever you can to make sure that you're getting the job done in a strong way uh on any day that ends wide it's hard to push myself because you guys know with leg day you got to get your adrenaline up your intensity up you got to get going you got to test your mind you got to test your wheel you got to touch your metal um and we're always looking for inspiration motivation to keep us very late night workout here in the west coast paradise and i gotta get it in where i can fit it in these days i've been on daddy duty all weekend no sleep put it in work big dogs eat little crying puppies stay on the porch it's saturday night and the eagle has landed it feels so good to be home i just got back from china an incredible trip now right now my boys my colleagues my friends are trying to give me [ __ ] they're saying let's get dressed tonight let's go out to all the golden globes parties i said i'm not going to the golden globes parties they said why not you just got back from china i said why not i said because we got work to do this is my party right here this is my golden vote card guys right hardest workers in the fight kicking this week off right let's go put it down in this gym i'm the guy who was evicted at 15 as you guys know but 23 i had seven bucks in my pocket i value a hard-earned dollar train hard stay strong and above all else get that ass back to work here we go all right here we are it's very late thursday night from the iron paradise uh we just wrapped a hardcore workout it was nice and intense this is what we call therapy iron therapy do not go gentle into that dark night and it is reflective of a spirit that we have we may get knocked down they get our ass kicked but we don't go gentle when i'm broken [Music] i relish it that's what i'm gonna do i'm gonna use it because if i'm broken then i just found my limitations and until i know what my limitations are how can i push them how can i get better once once i see it once i feel it once i see where i was broken then i can attack that weakness i can fill in that gap some of you have dreams and visions and businesses and ideas and concepts and they're beautiful but until you pay the sacrifice i swear you can't have success where you have not had sacrifice i swear you won't get it just because you want it but just because you think you're worth it you will succeed in the areas and to the degree of your sacrifice you never say no you never say it can't get done don't you ever say out your mouth it can't get done even if you feel in your heart it can't get done you don't say it out loud you let the broke folks say that i can reinforce that breach you let the folks they find first to that you always say could you duck can be the mark of victory or it can be the mark of defeat you can't let anything stop you from doing what you were called to do listen to me you have to be careful when you hang around average people all they're going to do is tell you what they can't do and that's okay that they can't do it but that has absolutely nothing to do with us we can go from being homeless in high school dropouts to having phds writing books and becoming the voice of a generation we can do whatever we believe we can do and we don't need anybody's permission to do it with ours all right great listen to me and i don't owe anybody the policy i am phenomenal and i don't owe anybody an apology i am going to do great things and i don't owe anybody an apology i am i was created to be great i was created to do great things i was created to have great things and i will no longer ask others for their permission in order for us to have and beat and do everything we were born to do is number one we have to kill the noise we have to stop going to other people and looking to other people for their permission to do what only we can do now it's time to see who had to heart now is the time to prove to yourselves and prove to everyone out there you are worthy and you're able to do something special that no one else in the world can do every champion has felt it go out there take no prisoners have no regrets have no fear laid it all out on the line every president has felt it every king has felt it every lion has felt it every winner has felt it every soldier has felt it every victorious person has felted you never say no you never say a drinking gun don't you ever say out your mouth it can't get done you feel in your heart and it can't be done you don't say it out loud you let the broke folks say that you can't make anything stop to understand this on the other side some of you have dreams and visions and businesses and ideas and concepts and they're beautiful but until you pay the sacrifice i swear you can't have success where you have not had sacrifice i swear you won't get it just because you want it and just because you think you're worth it you will succeed in the areas and to the degree of your sacrifice do not take the easy way out do not give up based on instinct if you are forced to stand down to retreat so that you can rebuild and i don't care if you don't have the money you don't have the help and you don't have the family for it and you don't have the background for it and you don't have the friends for it don't you give up on a little drink do it don't you do it don't you do it it may take you twice as long you may have to take courses and classes you might not read as fast you might not move this quick you might not have as much but don't you champion has felt it every president has felt it every king has felt it every lion has felt it every winner has felt it every soldier has felt it every victorious person has felted the urge how do you get to the gym every day [Applause] how do you overcome fear of failure or fear of success or or fear of fear itself [Music] believing in yourself is the first secret to success you have to find your inner passion the thing that wakes you up in the morning the thing that you think about all day the thing that you wish you were getting paid for once you find it you need to believe you can do it could i become committed to the process of what i was doing without being emotionally attached to the results of what i was doing in other words if i didn't get what i thought i was gonna get can i still show up and be just as dedicated just as committed and just as on fire as i was at day one right because everybody knows how to respond when they get what they're supposed to get and things go the way it's supposed to go i think that's the reason a quote says you judge the character of a person not by where they stand in times of comfort and convenience you judge the character of a person by where they stand in times of challenge and controversy you got some of the most brilliant people on the face of this planet when they hear that person they can't fight themselves out of a paper bag and it's not even that they don't have the will like they got it it's that the perspective about the adversity isn't right and i firmly believe perspective drives performance every day of the week how an individual view what they do will always affect how they do what they do folk can't understand why they're trying to pull you down but you're still rising [Applause] they don't want to see you make it but you're still driving you're still living good you're still eating well they have tried everything they know to pull you away but you just keep getting closer and closer and closer to your goal and your breakthrough no matter what happens never stop believing in yourself it is the strongest factor of success self-esteem is everything believe you deserve it believe you can do it believe you have the ability believe you are on the right path believe you'll get it and most importantly believe in yourself you gotta take my life before you take my drive i wasn't working just to be a great football player i want to be a great man i want to be a great father for my children i want to be a great husband for my wife i want to be a great servant in the world i don't want when adversity or rain comes i'm the guy i was great before the adversity but the moment that adversity hit i never turn back the true form i don't want to be that person that's great when everything is going all good but when something goes wrong they flee and they want nothing to do with it i want to be that person that's going to show up rain sleet or snow and they're going to give you everything they got you got to take off arrogance you got to take off pride you got to take off anything and sometimes you got to lose what you think you've got to have in order to get your best and square your shoulders man walk like this somebody talk like you somebody you see my dreams and ambitions are what drive me they keep me moving in a direction motivation gets me there faster you see you can look for outside motivation but this won't sustain you unless you have an inner desire you don't know how close you are to success so why stop now you've come so far so why give in now you are a champion we're just waiting for your time to shine keep pushing the same as you've always been doing you should never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about don't quit on your passion don't give up on your dreams you are the only person who can bring them to life you are the only one who can write your book make your film be the athlete you were destined to be help those people you can help it is only you who was destined to do those things the cop asked me once he said man what's your drink i said i'm gonna go division one i'm gonna go to college then i'm gonna go to the league and he's like you'll probably go to cell block d1 and i was like man you're making a mistake like i've never met you a day in my life i got an uncle in jail right an uncle in prison right and i was like yeah he's like apple don't fall too far from the tree right and what he was saying to me was you'll probably repeat the same pattern that they repeated you come from the same household right and i could have looked at it and made an excuse and said i'm gonna lower my standards to meet and accommodate my household my experience my situation my circumstance or i can take my situation and my circumstance and raise my standard and say i'm going to be an example i'm going to triumph and i'm going to use my situation and my circumstances my driving force and my my fuel if i do this well i can get my family in a better situation if i do this well i can get my mother off the double shift at wendy's if i do this well i can get my own bed if i do this well i can get my grandmother a better living condition if i do this well maybe i can stop my uncles from selling drugs this is my purpose this is what i've been put here to do and so the opposition adversity to challenges is just a part of the process it's going to make me a better person but my purpose i can't let anything stop or detour me from tapping into that every single day right because for most people when you go through something the person's natural perspective is okay what did i lose right what happened to me like i took a loss right people never look at it and say okay man tell me what did you gain right even though i know it hurt you didn't want to go through it but look at it in a way to where you can say what's the lesson in this right what would you say life is trying to teach you from dealing with this right because i'm coming from this household to i sleep on the floor right with roaches with rats i'm not ashamed to admit it right and i would go to school and i would compete i would work and so when i met a kid that i was competing against the only thing i felt i had the advantage in my whole life was my work ethic and i took pride in that right i was never the biggest the fastest the strongest never had the most resources but i had a work ethic and so my whole life i want it different for my family ever since i was a kid right and so never allowing a situation or circumstance to define your life and understanding that you got something inside of you that's greater than a situation or a circumstance but you have to constantly believe it and not only believe it you have to make decisions and choices every single day to put you a step forward toward what you believe your destiny is and so when i went through it my perspective was okay what can i extract from it to apply to other areas and aspects of my life that i feel can help other people and i firmly believe the quicker you can shift your perspective from yourself to others when you're in the midst of adversity the quicker you'll get through it right martin luther king has a quote that says life's most persistent and urgent question is what are you doing to help other people you take that challenge when you answer the call and you see the other side of pain it's cold glory this cold glory there's somebody sitting home right now there's a young 10 year old kid sitting home that don't have a father and he's ready to join the gang he's ready to give up i'm telling you don't give in and don't ever give up went to bed last night and all these ideas about you're going to get up this morning it's going to be different things are going to be different today you're going to start start taking steps towards doing some of those projects that you know will get you closer to living that dream life you keep playing over and over in your head different from the practical life that you've got to get up and meet every day to go to the cubicle infested world and work a job just to pay the bills but gas in the gas tank to take you places where you don't really want to go to be around people you don't enjoy being around put groceries in a refrigerator groceries that keep you fat and lazy keep you away from being healthy and fit in your life what wait you what what drives you why are you playing this game pay the mortgage on a house that doesn't inspire you it's just a nuisance and you hate coming home dude what the [ __ ] are you doing and you know what makes it even worse is it your coward before you got

you need to do with your life telling you that those things that you believe matter and have a purpose in your life really don't that the silly the superficial the stupid does there are those of you right now you should have cut a cd you should have wrote a book you should have got in school and got that degree you should have started your own business there's so many things you should have done

mistake you're scared that you're not perfect what wakes you up what drives you why are you playing this game are you a gazelle or are you a lion mr resistance will be there every morning morning noon and night and while you were sleeping right in your ass kicking your ass unless you turn around and you start throwing punches what's your purpose for playing this game why are you doing what you're doing and when you know why you're doing what you're doing you saw my t-shirt no alarm clock needed my passion wakes me up i got up at three o'clock this morning no clock i used to clock in 20 years

you can always get better but listen to me i want you to practice perfecting the 24 hours you hear me 60 minutes in a day 1 40 seconds that's what i want you to concentrate on i want you to concentrate on the knot and you want makes it even worse is it your coward when i wake up in the morning and i'm working on my speech when i get up in the morning i'm answering a phone call when i get up in the morning listen to me very closely and i'm write down every idea i dreamed about every movie i can't even watch a movie now i can't even listen to music without writing something down i get my i write everything down it's right here everything so guess what guess what every week every time i practice it every book i and i'm telling you if you fall in love with small if you fall in love

guaranteeing you you're gonna blow up i need you to stop trying to do it big i need you to fall in love with small and guess what big gonna be attractive to you that there is something better for you to do with your time than even being here right now i am mr resistance i'm distracting you from doing the work you need to do get the [ __ ] out of here and do the work of your life everybody can serve anyone can be a leader listen our gravestone our gravestone has a day a day when you were born in a day when you die and they got a dance in between and that dash defines what your legacy is dr miles monroe compares leaders to the king of the jungle he says he says the lion is not the tallest animal in the jungle the lion is not the largest animal in the jungle the lion is not the smartest nor the most intelligent handlebar in the journey and yet when the lion shows up he is keen he is king you don't need to be intelligent you don't need to be smart you don't need to have a certain height you don't need to have a certain way you don't need to have any kind of advantage and yet you can be a leader i was not the biggest the strongest or fastest but my goals were clear my actions were and still on service those goals when the gazelle wakes up it runs but if a lion ain't chasing it it's not driving but when the lion wakes up you don't need nobody to push it it pushes itself i'm trying to perfect it now are you hearing i'm saying i'm trying to look at each second and make sure i'm doing something any second i want to make sure each minute i'm doing something each minute i want to make sure every hour i'm doing something every hour i want to make sure in that day i'm getting something done on monday on tuesday on wednesday on thursday on friday that i'm effective you don't have to be perfect wait what what drives you why are you playing this game are you a gazelle or are you alive you take that challenge when you answer the call and you see the other side of pain call glory this is called glory right now i am mr resistance i'm distracting you from doing the work you need to do get the [ __ ] out of here and do the work of your life you're defined by what you define failure as [Music] it's not a thing if it leads you to your success it's all part of the journey it's all part of the journey you have to appreciate those moments because what happens right after you feel like you failed is who you are and who you will continue to be if you constantly remind yourself after every defeat after every setback every time you get knocked down i've got a saying if life knocks you down try and land on your back because if you can look up you can get up failure is a part of the learning process right what's the risk of failure what you'll be embarrassed failure is part of life the difference for me though is i look at failure as a stepping stone to success it's a speed bump i know i'm going to fail there's always challenges obstacles etc and i literally don't accept any of that as an impediment as a negative it's like good this is going to make me stronger i'm going to learn something from this it's not failure if you learn something see a lot of people because of failure they stop they stop believing let me share something with you you will fail your way to success yes 8 out of 10 millionaires have been financially bankrupt you will fail your way to success fail early fail often fail forward best advice that i could give you on success is to know that success is merely the hangover of failure and that failure is an essential ingredient in creating a learning atmosphere for you so that you can accrue those learnings those small incremental steps of failure and collect enough learning so that you can arrive at success it doesn't matter how many times you fail it doesn't matter how many times people tell you that you can't do it it doesn't matter if you don't have a dime in the bank you will fail your way to success you will fail at some point in your life accept it you will lose you will embarrass yourself you will suck at something there's no doubt about it embrace it because it's inevitable you don't make excuses for the failure you grieve it you feel the pain you don't brush it off you don't downplay it you feel the pain and you don't rush to feel better now listen this is the principle of life i'm about to tell you to get past it you gotta go through it that's true in so many areas but it's particularly true with failure to get past your failure that failure in your life you've got to go through it you can't go around your failure you can't go over your failure you can't go under your failure you can't ignore your failure you need to grieve the failure fail early fail often fail forward if i'm going to fall i don't want to fall back on anything except my faith i want to fall forward i figure at least this way i'll see what i'm going to hit you should seek failures see if you're playing it safe you're not going to win it's by trying things that you figure out how far you can go you got to get outside the box you're going to fail it's okay okay you're going to fail and i'm not talking about the tests it's one thing talking about to your knees your skin bloody fail and that's okay because you know what you know down deep inside of all of you that's how you learn never be discouraged never hold back give everything you got and when you fall throughout life and remember this fall forward right i think we're taught in the system that failure is something that you should be ashamed of failure is for the dumb kids because you get an f you get a d right you're not competent you didn't comply you didn't create the evidence of your worthiness you need to be motivated by failure how did you learn how to walk or you crawled then you fell down busted your tooth got some blood in your mouth you get up and you walk right self-directed success doesn't look like an a plus it doesn't look like 110 in extra credit and failure isn't as simple as an f and it's not always always like failure could be very gray right and being able to discern uh what you might arrive at an event or in your life where you think that wow i've succeeded and you're getting the affirmation from all these outside forces but if it's not aligned authentically with to whom which you are it could very much feel like failure [Music] you have to dare to suck you will never make something great if you are afraid that it's going to suck that it is going to fail fail early fail often fail forward um you know it's always a little bit frustrating to me when people have a negative relationship with failure failure is a massive part of being able to be successful you have to get comfortable with failure you have to actually seek failure failure is where all of the lessons are fail early fail often fail forward and that fire in your belly that got you here keep it love it keep throwing logs on it it's important your tenacity and and your ability to define who you are through those failures will be your ultimate success you are trying to find inspiration and motivation with a depressed mindset you're depressed because you're not doing with yourself you don't find inspiration by not living in the grip of life you need to live in the grip of life to find inspiration put challenges in front of yourself when you put a challenge in front of yourself and you attack it that's where you find inspiration try to be 10 better than you were last week so if you run it 30 miles a week 133 if you're swimming 500 meters spend 550 and some of you aren't doing [ __ ] you're 10 is just getting off the couch the more you walk away from accountability weaker you become find yourself in the grip of life you can't find yourself by doing nothing let me see if i can fix myself so i said if i can just walk one more mile after being in the worst shape of my entire life this would change everything for me mentally going forward from this kid who came from dirt nothing who couldn't read until he was a junior in high school and is now here i went i walked a mile i said hmm maybe i can walk one more mile maybe i can walk another mile at mile 81 my expert looked at me says you're not gonna make the time when your mind knows it's not going to quit and this is what i found out this is my 40 rule when your mind knows it's not going to quit your body will adapt to whatever is in front of it i end up running 20 more miles i did 101 miles in 19 hours and 6 minutes and that one day change that one 19 hours it wasn't still training it wasn't raining school wasn't delta force what did that crap i went through it was this 19 hours and six minutes that forever changed my life to know that we as human beings are capable of anything and we don't need any special kind of parents or tools to get there so engine with this don't stop when you're tired stop when you're done thank you very much come on get it seventeen they all know me son get it 18. holy son get it 19. yeah that's you buddy come on 23. come on one more david who's one more wanna carry the boats you're gonna do it you're gonna do it you're gonna do it you did it yeah one thing that changed my life is my grandfather he told me you're going nowhere in your life not being anything as bad as that hurt me it got me to put my head on my ass so learn to stay hard have thick skin and do what's right what you need is the one thing i talked about my book was just straight up brutal work ethic you have to be willing to outwork everybody in the world and that that that's the hard part that's the hard part this isn't like some five-step process where you do these five steps you're going to end up with this magical world now i'm basically teaching you how to callous over your victim's mentality this is all about the quitting mind so what's the quitting in mind so let's say it's day one of a job interview you have your clothes laid out you've been preparing for weeks and weeks and weeks you show up and you bring your best self after a couple months you start showing up to work a little later you don't look as good your breakfast isn't ready your mind's getting softer repetition every day stay hard most important conversation is the one you have with yourself you wake up with it you walk around with it you go to bed with it eventually you act on it we live in a world now that's so kind we we find a kind way around everything like if you don't look good i have to find a kind way of saying i don't like your shirt right that's not the approach if that's the approach you're looking for that book is not for you can't hurt me is not for you the approach you have to take at least i took you take whatever approach you want the conversation had to be a real honest conversation in the accountability mirror guess what i was fat don't find a kind word to say that you know what i've gained some weight no you're fat when i couldn't read not like hey you know even learn disability no i cannot read but fourth grade reading level i'm struggling and sometimes i call myself stupid not in a way to put myself down sometimes you act on it good sometimes bad you gotta change the internal dialogue [Music] that person in your head that's talking that to you until you change the internal dialogue in your head until you callous over the victim's mentality that the world is out to get you because of you are the only you gotta change that i once had that mentality that no one understands what the f i'm going through and if you keep that mentality you're gonna stay in the same exact spot that you're in that no one understands me there's a whole there's millions of people why you think a book that i self-published you know is doing so well with the story that's so [ __ ] up people like i never give up i went to a publishing house like who's gonna resonate with this story no one's gonna buy this book i'm like are you not in the world are you not in society you're never alone everybody's going through so when people get this mentality of like you understand me you can throw a rock to someone that can understand you if they're willing to break themselves down and stop hiding a lot of people understand you but you got to stop hiding that's why i tell people a lot of people are going through they just hide better than you did that's all they did it was hiding better [Music] don't find words to make yourself feel better because that's what so we hang around people that make us feel better that tell us what we want to hear not what we need to hear and so we stay away from those people and we stay away from those people like our internal dialogue becomes that kind it's okay it's not okay so that's where it starts it starts with that accountability of it's not okay anymore this can no longer be okay and calling yourself out for exactly what you are and exactly how you need to fix it a lot of us give total control to life we don't have any control of it we just give all control to life i do this [ __ ] every morning to prepare my mind for what life's gonna throw at me a healthy body gives you a healthy mind that's what it's about so if you go into battle you want to go in about the right mindset the right gear in combat you wear body armor but what we do wrong is we want to strengthen our minds you got to strengthen your mind take control over that most of us live our entire lives avoiding failure it's funny i walk around people come to me and say man do that navy seal you would do range your school your you know air force tank p you know you uh did the pull up record you run all these ultra races all this [ __ ] man the funny thing about it that i think about is this they know that part of me this is the part i know about myself i thought the asvab test to get in the military three times in the air force throw that para in the seals it took me three times to get through navy seal training the pull-up record took me three times this is what i know about me so what i'm saying is this you can't live your life being afraid to fail all those failures made me their success in the day stay hard stay in the fight [Music] as you know i'm a serious introvert and very afraid of people i i got judged so much growing up that this is uncomfortable for me all these podcasts you know that's why i post once a week but the one thing i realized uh why i wrote the book is honestly i have a story to tell as we all have a story to tell and what i realized on my journey was a lot of us don't believe that we can achieve the impossible [Music] and and along my journey i started realizing man i gotta tell some people about this man like i discovered something that some people have but don't even know all of us have it but along this way i wasn't like i said i wanted a theorist i became a practitioner and i was like my god i'm busting down so many barriers of like i have a learning disability okay but i'm catching up with everybody i i figured that out i figured out all these negative things in my life that were keeping me in this hole like i gotta tell people man that hang on a second man you can achieve the absolute impossible keep pushing forward it wasn't easy i mean there were moments where i felt like we were pushing an impossible weight up the giant mountain and 50 fell back down several times people thought that i was a crazy freak i'm always hungry for more [Music] i want more and i think all of you want more i believe that self-discipline is the definition of self-love of course i've always believed in setting goals really high i always like to set goals so high that the naysayers always say it's impossible let the dream destroy you let it strip you let it remake and mold you don't be afraid millennials are stuck with degrees that are not usable and bills that they can't pay for middle america is frustrated because the jobs are gone and they don't seem to be coming back inner cities are frustrated because there's no economic opportunities in there each of us has a responsibility to stop waiting on someone to rescue us and redesign our lives and create the kind of life you want to live northern they say us to set big goals and to have a big vision yes everything is always impossible until someone does it we can do the impossible let's get started do what you can knock it out build up extra free time if you need a break take a break do what you can if you need a break take a break if you need a little relaxation take some relaxation don't waste your time though people do relaxing but they do it they don't even do it good they don't feel relaxed when they get done what they did is they did something stupid for an hour they watched youtube videos for an hour did that help you no go outside go for a run do some burpees go surfing go do some jiu jitsu play with your kids whatever do something that actually has some value if you don't know where you are going you don't know what it takes to get when you get up in the morning don't think just roll out of bed go in your life cycle or go on a bicycle ride or go to the gym workout you know that's what you have to do and then read something and learn something so don't even think about it as soon as you think that you're perfect that's when you screw i gotta get better i gotta lose more weight i get to drink down my tummy i gotta get bigger calves i gotta get bigger down this listen to me you have to be careful when you hang around average people all they're gonna do is tell you what they can't do and that's okay that they can't do it but that has absolutely nothing to do with us we can go from being homeless in high school dropouts to having phds writing books and becoming the voice of a generation we can do whatever we believe we can do and we don't need anybody's permission to do it so if you're not quite reaching your goal because you didn't do everything that you could do you have time you make the time [Music] decisions you make right now is up to you you crying about something that happened to you when you was a kid you ain't even no kid no more you're a grown man take four ownership the stupid stuff you doing your parents that make you play no video games and what you cried about so what your daddy wasn't there your mama ended up getting married what you crying about he went to work every day he never beat you he never abused you your mama did the best she knew how to do what you crying about you grew up in a house what you ground about what the hell we all waiting for to start attacking life waiting for the stars to align no matter how many years you've lived up till now no matter how many years you have yet to live and the time you've had on this planet no matter how much of that time can waste it over and over and over right now is the moment you have when you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe young man then you will be successful in any area of your life [Music] is it too cold where you live is it too hot where you live does it rain too much now it's time for some real [ __ ] talk life's a real big picture when i was young all those things got my head black not smart enough single mom all that [ __ ] own space in my head if you're allowing people and things and situations someone's facing your head you're losing you wake up in the morning and you're dreading going to work dude do something else do something else and those are hard decisions to make but when you make those decisions it's a very liberating experience [Music] i had no money i had no things we had no tv we had no refrigerator nothing as kids but i was rich because i had a dream you're gonna get your ass kicked we're gonna get the [ __ ] kicked out of us you gotta get up you gotta have faith that the one thing you wanted to happen oftentimes is the best thing that never happened so have faith just keep that in mind keep plugging away three o'clock in the dark on morning i'm doing it every day and three o'clock in the morning i'm telling y'all the breakthrough i'm gonna break these boys why because where they come from they couldn't get up at three o'clock in the morning if they wanted to they smarter than me they come from privilege they got the language they got the code they got the roof they grew up in it but they will not get up earlier to me they will not put out more content to me life's one big head game you play with yourself if you lose it's because you allow life to get in your head stay hard so i'm getting ready to board my plane yesterday and this nfl football player comes up to me because guys can ask you a question how do you keep that dog mentality let me ask you a question when you were younger what did you want to be he said an nfl football player but once i got there i lost that dog mentality he had a finish line in his brain guess what a true dog mentality i'm a dog at home he never gets full it's not enough you made to the nfl be the mvp if not enough you ran a 5k put a 10k don't be afraid to fail anything i've ever attempted i was always willing to fail in the movie business i remember that you pick scripts many times you think this is a winning script but then of course you find out later when you do the movie that it didn't work and the movie goes in the toilet now we have seen my movies i mean uh red sonia hercules in new york last action heroes those movies went in the toilet but that's okay because the same time they have i made movies like terminator and conan and true lies and predator and twins that went through the roof so you can't always win but don't be afraid of making decisions you can't be paralyzed by fear or failure or you will never push yourself saturday night 1 45 a.m i just wrapped a phenomenal workout here in the iron paradise got after it hardcore hardest workers in the room it's how we do it um the number one question that i'm asked everywhere i go around the world is always how is it that i stay so motivated what are the motivating factors in my life that keep me in this psychological space number one will be gratitude i try and find a way to be grateful for every single thing i have every single day wins losses loved ones you name it my life wasn't always this way it was much different many moons ago so these days i'm grateful to the bone for everything the other thing is hunger uh you always hear people say well it's about being number one about being at the top or how about this um you're always gonna find somebody out there who's gonna work harder well i don't know that that might be [ __ ] but i know no one is gonna be hungrier than i am i believe in winning the battle against yourself people say why do you say that because there's a lot of things you can control when you wake up and talk about making your bed make your bed make sure your house is clean make sure you get your breakfast make sure you shower shave whatever you're doing control that don't hit the snooze button you wake up in the morning time and you own all this stuff because once you leave your house the world then gets at you and that's why i believe enough not not getting up for more time checking your phone immediately everybody does that they get up the first thing they do is grab their phone look at the phone maybe bad news on there so how's your day start off i don't go to the gym i don't make my bed i don't you're caught up now on that phone that's how your day starts you lost control so once you win that once you win that battle in the morning time then once you go out now you've won you go outside your house you may lose your job you may have a bad hit but you won something so so you're going into battle having already won something having already won so then if you this news button you go out you just defeat it already you're behind the power curve now you've won something you feel better about yourself so now you're able to take these hits along the way yeah win what you can the most important thing is that you have a vision that you have a goal because without that vision without that goal again you're drifting around and you're never going to end up anywhere people don't become successful just by accident you know i mean maybe the guy that found gold in california and started the gold rush but don't count on that that's the one in a in a lifetime kind of a situation so you got to really have a specific order to me to have that vision that i want to be mr universe that i want to be the greatest bodybuilder of all time that was a great vision and that specifically to look like reg park and to be up there on that stage and to lift the trophy overhead and to win the championship over and over and over again so that was a great goal you have to have a goal now it doesn't have to be that specific goal but it has to have some goal this is why i always recommend to people sit down take your time instead of thinking about why do you want to work out what is your goal and that can be as crazy as it is it could be you know i want to impress girls if that's your goal so be it but it motivates you so somebody just asked me a cool question said dj you're on top where could you possibly go from here and you always talk about outworking your competition who's your competition it's a great question thank you for the compliment by the way i'm fortunate enough to be on top but anytime you reach the top you always want to make sure that you have the desire to raise the bar and take the brass ring to places it's never been that's the key with being on top just because it's never been done doesn't mean it can't be done and in terms of competition great question everyone's my competition but a fundamental key that i've learned over the years is i'll share with you my number one competition is me it's always you versus you you got to be the one to get up every morning be disciplined put in the consistent daily hard work because that gains success no coach no trainer no mentor no boss can do it you versus you back when i was growing up the song came out all i need is a miracle well guess what that miracle ain't coming there is no perfect time to start you gotta start now and change in your life we're all being tested in life and guess what this is one test you can't cheat on we all have our own tests some of us are obese so much depressed it's almost insecure in the military we have this big old rucksack on the back have batteries water extra gear you extra gears of [ __ ] you're dealing with in life and the only way to overcome it is for you and you alone to face it you have to do your best work when you're least motivated so those days you don't want to do it guess what you gotta do stay hard the day is 24 hours and we sleep six now i know there are some out there that say whoa whoa whoa i need eight but i say just sleep a little faster because the bottom line is we have six hours of sleep 24 hours are available so if 18 hours now available do your work your family your hobbies e.t what was it like being homeless i don't remember what was it like eating out of trash cans i don't remember i ain't on that let me tell y'all the hardest part of my life the hardest part of my life was not being homeless i had no dreams or no goals i didn't want nothing eating out of trash cans wasn't the hardest thing i've ever done the hardest thing i ever did was get my ged go to college study every dog long day and still fail that's hard that's hard when you write in the paper for three four weeks you turn it in and you still get a 2.0 that's hard it's hard when you're in a library and you study it and you read and you take the test and you get a 55 that's hard so what i want you to understand about a breakthrough is that 90 is work but the last 10 that's fight one day all these early mornings and late nights will pay off one day everything you've been working toward will be worth it [Music] success does not come to those who wait success comes to those who go out and get it stop using the fact that you don't have money as an excuse i understand everybody else in the world tells you you need money to make money and all that other kind of stuff yep we all have the same 24 hours in a day hustle is putting it all on a line hustle is waking up one day the day before you die and realizing you gave it your all into the parenting of your children the building of your businesses the philanthropy that you wanted to do whatever you define it's just you know all in emotionally and executionally in theory and strategy and an execution those at the top of the mountain didn't fall there good things happen to those who hustle success is the reward of hard work and hustle i also like every day is my last i hustle because it is the only thing i know i hustle because hard work will lead me to success i hustle because i want this more than anything [Music] go out there and get it it's time for 5 a.m starts it's time for late night finishes it's time to work 24 hours straight it's time to go all in it's time to work a side hustle after you get home from work it's time to give it your all the reason you need to hustle is because it will separate you from the other 99 of people shocked by how hard you work discipline creates freedom discipline creates freedom that's it you have to be disciplined you have to have a method you have to act learn and repeat and you have to keep figuring it out if you're doing something else and you and you want to do this thing you love you do it after hours you work nine to six you get home you kiss the dog and you go to town right i mean you start building your equity and your brand and whatever you're trying to accomplish after hours everybody has time you are not it isn't in your nature to give up on this [Music] the mind is the battleground it is the place where the greatest conflict is [Music] there are more people in this room having trouble in their mind than there are people having trouble in their finances the struggle is in your mind this is why we have people who go to bed tired and wake up tired slept eight hours and you wake up still tired the reason you wake up tired is that you got sleep but you didn't get rest your mind has been in turmoil all night long you've been wrestling in your sleep and you're gonna walk up and your bed was wet the bed is all talk just like you've been in a fight because your mind has not rested your body went to sleep but your mind is still part of it a warfare your mind get up out to make you give up on your dream the warfare is in your mind it's not in your checkbook it's not in your savings account it's not on your job the fight that you've got to fight is in your mind and if you whip it in your head you can whip it in your checkbook you can flip it on your jaw you can whip it out of your children but you gotta try to get out of your hand you have a dream a dream bigger than anyone knows i want you to know it is possible you can have everything you want all your dreams all your desires it is yours for the taking but you must be willing to put in the work all the young entrepreneurs out there you have one thing all of us desire time so it is time to use your time wisely stop playing video games all day long stop watching tv all night stop mindlessly scrolling through instagram stop with the youtube binge sessions stop wasting your time on things that are not going to help you get the goals you want stop doing things that will not help you toward your dreams now is the time to stand up for what you believe in there is no better time to start working on your dreams than right now what are you waiting for get going now so [Music] [Music] imagine for a moment [Music] you have nowhere to live no money just the shirt on your back what would you do would you still have the will and mental fortitude to work on your dreams would you have the strength to keep going on your journey or would you crumble would you end up in the gutter me tell you something if tomorrow wasn't promised what would you give her today forget everything else forget everything else forget that there was any sunlight left what would you spend today thinking about you see in life bad things happen sometimes life hits you on the blind side you don't see it coming but you need the mindset to be able to continue the mindset to keep going when everything is falling to pieces around you we get one opportunity in life one chance in life to do whatever you gonna do to lay your foundation to make whatever mark we're gonna make whatever legacy you gonna leave leave your legacy why why do i need to keep going when bad things happen because that is life if we all stopped when something bad happened there would be zero successful people to ever exist it takes courage to act part of being hungry when you've been defeated it takes courage to start over again and it's found throughout wins and losses come a dime courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm when you step into your fears and continue to push yourself to go on something happens for you it will enable you to transcend yourself so that team that think they're ready to see you they think what they seen on film they ain't so with film shows because every day is a new day every moment is a new moment [Music] now you got to go out and show them that i'm a different creature now than i was five minutes ago bad things do happen life will hit you on the blind side and it is in these moments that you develop true strength it is in these moments you learn how to become successful because if you ain't pissed off of greatness that means so let's do what we do if you are going through a hard time right now maybe you lost someone special to you maybe you failed on the big stage maybe you're struggling to get going again know this you are more than enough you can do this you will be successful the storm will pass this is not the end for and when you look back in years to come it will be in this moment where you mark the start of your success story it is easy to be negative today it is easy to have low morale today but if you can begin to harness yourself and say that where i am i'm going to do the best i can with what i got because that is an expression of who i am when all the odds are stacked up against you can you walk into the eye of the storm and fight again it is in these moments that true champions are made it is in these moments that greatness is sparked you need to test yourself you need to push your limits to places they have not been before you can't do that from your comfort zone to get stronger you must put yourself under more pressure [Music] if you get into the habit of just being mediocre it will become a part of your consciousness if you get in the habit of giving less than what you have it within you to give it will begin to reflect itself in your personality it will begin to damage you psychologically [Music] [Music] success is simply many failures that add up to a win we forget that greats have fallen before we forget that their journey started from the bottom it was one step backward two steps forward all the way to the top learn to love losing don't be frozen by the fear of it to really be something special you must be willing to put it all on the line you must be willing to fight without the fear of losing no limits you can only truly shine when you learn that losing is part of success it has its good and it has plenty of bad but i always like to focus on the good because the good shine's true but where i come from we're not supposed to climb to these heights we're told that it's instilled in us i've just used all that that fuel that i'm not supposed to do it but i'm gonna do it and i'm gonna outwork everyone that says i cannot do it and that's what i did and that's how i rose open long may it continue and you don't want to be a part of that kind of self-destructive behavior and so you want to set some high standards for yourself you've got to develop a sense of urgency stop living your life like you have a thousand years to live in life you either hit a day and you're gone today if there's something that you want to do and you can't do it all at one time do just a little bit of it good things happen to those who hustle success is the reward of hard work and hustle i hustle like every day is my last i hustle because it is the only thing i know i hustle because hard work will lead me to success i hustle because i want this more than anything one day all these early mornings and late nights will pay off one day everything you've been working toward will be worth it success does not come to those who wait success comes to those who go out and get it go out there and get it the power to hold on in spite of everything the power to endure this is the winner's quality the hunger the ability to face defeat again and again without giving up this is a winner's quality you have that quality within you when you're hungry you don't care about the facts you don't care about the odds being realistic is the most commonly traveled road to mediocrity he who says he can and he who says he can't are both usually right those at the top of the mountain didn't fall there it's time for 5 am starts it's time for late night finishes it's time to work 24 hours straight it's time to go all in it's time to work a side hustle after you get home from work it's time to give it your all the reason you need to hustle is because it will separate you from the other 99 of people you need to be the hardest worker at all times you need to be beating everyone around you people should talk of your work ethic with wonder and awe they will be shocked by how hard you work i've never really viewed myself as particularly talented where i excel is ridiculous sickening work ethic you know while the other guy's sleeping i'm working a lot of other guys eating i'm working there's greatness in you and you've got to learn how to tune out the critics outside and the critic inside and since i'm going to do this i'm going to honest my will and i'm not going to let anything stop i deserve this i'm going to do it until he who is not courageous enough to take risk or accomplish nothing in life if you want something [Music] you have got to be relentless and you've got to be so relentless regardless of what comes down the pike that you're always looking for a way to get over always looking for a way that you can break through always looking for a way that you can win always looking for a way that you can strike a telling blow live your life with passion with some drive if we all stopped when something bad happened there would be zero successful people to ever exist don't stop when you're tired stop when you are done once a quitter always a quitter let's go chad let's go chad until you have had the taste of finishing you will not respect yourself to be the man you got to be the man to be the man you got to be the man or one male army me out on me the world can go against me i'm still coming on time until you follow through until something is done come hell on hot water tears and struggles and pain and you go through it anyway and you show up and you continue to fight on no matter the circumstances let's go champ dedication hard work dedication hard work dedication hard work dedication hard work on one male army one male army the world can go against me i'm still coming on time you are relentless you will never stop this isn't a game to you you are not going to give up because of a little pain let's go chad let's go chad you don't stop when you're tired you stop when you're done dedication hard work dedication hard work dedication hard work dedication [Music] to be the man you got to be the man when he was tired he was running mile 18 to be the man you got to be the man a little pain along the way is your rite of passage it is the battle scars of the successful the marks of a warrior who succeed at this adventure through life see some people quit because things are out of control nobody quits what you can control but the moment you get in something where you don't get your way or you get reprimanded or you get corrected or you go through this or you go through that or you go through the other or it's bad conditions or bad circumstances then the first thing the immature mind says is is ridiculous i quit don't stop when you're tired stop when you are done once a quitter always a quitter [Applause] [Music] you might not have seen it you saw the glamour but let me tell you what you didn't see i fought to do that i fought my way up i fought to get to work i fought to get up on my feet i fought to stand i fought to carry on i fought to love i fought to live i fought to get out of the bed i fought with my fears my doubts my anxieties my insecurities i fought with haters liars black biters and betrayers i even had to fight with family and many times i laid in the bed i couldn't go to sleep because i was fighting with myself i thought i kept kept the faith i kept it i lost a lot of stuff i lost a lot of friends i lost a lot of strength i lost a lot of courage i lost a lot of time i lost a lot of money but i kept down on my knees i was still believing broke i was believing lonely i was believing betrayed i was believing don't stop when you're tired stop when you are done once a quitter always a quitter [Music] 2019 is stacking up to be the year of the underdog [Music] the boxing world was shaken up as the heavyweight giant anthony joshua was dethroned by a last-minute call-in a fighter who nearly 99 of people doubted he could win before the fight 25-1 odds at the bookies bullied in high school for being overweight called in to fight the world champion just one month before the fight people may doubt you but never doubt yourself prove them wrong rues said the people who are doubting me will become my fans he never doubted himself he came away with the win and one of history's biggest shock wins a lot of people may doubt you a lot of people may count you out some of them may want you to fail some may hate on you or speak bad of you but you know who else was doubted michael jordan he was cut from his high school team steve jobs was laughed at jack ma was rejected from jobs stephen king's first novel was rejected 30 times people don't want to see you succeed because if you can do it then they have no excuse for themselves anymore just know you are among good company in the people who have been doubted before did you think i need to pack this in heaven why not i don't ever give up i mean i'd have to be dead or completely incapacitated [Music] life is one big tug of war and a lot of times you can pull yourself through life this morning i did not want to get up don't let your past shackle your future we are all going through hard times hard times come when you least expect it don't let the pain of yesterday ruin the chance of happiness someday we are all able to push past unimaginable pain throughout your day you will have things that will be out of your control mistakes will happen but don't let this take over your day and especially don't let it take over the next day [Music] think about what happened how and why it went wrong and then move on the day you choose can be solely determined by you and your ability to control your mood i look at a day in one hour chunks this way if i have a bad hour it will not affect the other hours of that day you can control your time so that your time doesn't control you why allow one bad moment in your life determine your future the most powerful people in the world use their time wisely for things that matter they realize that time is valuable at amazon they have business plans that are five to ten years ahead of schedule they control their time and that is why they are one of the most successful companies ever to exist don't let yesterday take up too much of today accept where you are and the responsibility that you're going to take yourself where you want to go someone said we have two primary choices in life we can either accept conditions as they exist or we can take the responsibility to change them see a lot of people want to exempt themselves from taking responsibility all they want to do is talk about the problem every time you see them they'll tell you their story over and over and over and over again no no you want to take responsibility for your life i got me here i can get me out of this and i'm getting out i'm not going to be a volunteer victim george bernard shaw said there are two kinds of people in life you know he said those that make things happen those that watch things happen and those that don't know what happened so part of beginning to get unstuck you've got to decide that the behavior pattern that you have adopted doesn't work for you you've got to change your strategies and changing your strategy means reinventing your life recreating you and you have the power to do that [Music] you can decide that you're going to stand up to life you can you have the power to make that decision you can decide i'm going to work on myself and develop myself i'm going to empower me there are times when anything that can happen will happen murphy's law will be knocking at your door why i don't know why that's called life and you have to deal with it sometimes your life will be in a slump just like sports some of the best shooters can't hit baskets different times and games they get in a slump do they sit on the sideline and say you know i just hit a basket today no they continue to execute i suggest to you that if you are facing a challenge don't stop stay busy work your plan continue to do those things that you know that work for you after you have evaluated yourself in the situation [Applause] so there's a lot of scars we have in our bodies that people can see and they tell a story but lavas have scars in their brains [Music] the more and more i got into that run i started gaining more and more confidence [Music] bad childhoods bad adulthood no scars in your brain we don't talk about we hide scarring is proof that our past is real but the one thing we do is we allow to control our lives and we get off the log well time to get back on the log sometimes you gotta fight pain with pain stay hard you gotta be willing to find the confidence stay in the fight stay in the war stay in the battle arm of your mind you can break physically you can break mentally you can break your heart you can break your spirit and none of those are fun and all of those are gonna leave a mark but the mark that they leave can be the mark of victory or can be the mark of defeat i've been cheating myself and my family wherever you are whatever you're doing do it with everything that you have develop the habit of giving more than what you're paid for develop the habit of setting standards that others will be measured by someone said do not go where the path may lead but go where there's no path and leave a trail because every time you break and in every way that you break while it's a chance it's definitely a chance for you to give up and for you to just to fall apart you are going to incur incur a lot of disappointment a lot of failure a lot of pain a lot of setbacks a lot of defeats but in the process of doing that you will discover some things about yourself that you don't know right now what you will realize is that you have greatness within you what you'll realize is that you're more powerful than you can ever begin to imagine but there's also opportunity there's opportunity to get stronger and get smarter and get faster and get tougher and get more stable and get more resilient and get better in fact if you break the fight is just beginning and as you crawl up and out of that dismal and wretched place covered and you're covered in blood and sweat and dirt and filth as you rise above what you were and as you take the form of of who you are supposed to be you will see that in the very act of standing up in the very act of fighting on you will become and you will remain you've got to focus on you and as you convince you as you sell yourself every day every day every day you will begin to see a difference in the things that you're doing selling yourself on your ability to perform a job to achieve a certain objective telling yourself every day here go again and i got what it takes this is my day and nothing out here is going to stop me [Music] [Applause] mental health problems i just showed the world tonight everyone's suffering with mental alpha you can come back and it can be done everybody out there who has the same problems i've been suffering with i did that for you guys you know the truth everybody knows i won't not fight and if i can come back from where i come from then you can do it too so get up get over it and let's do it seek help and let's do it together as a team anything is possible with the right mindset if you believe in yourself and you sacrifice and dedicate with the right help you can come back because when i sit here and say i was on the brink of suicide i mean suicide and i came back with the helper ben davidson and the great team around me we were able to achieve what we achieved tonight i bought a brand new ferrari convertible in the summer of 2016. and i was in it and i was on the highway and there's a strip of the highway where i am and at the bottom of about five mile strip there's a massive bridge that crosses the motorway and i knew that and i got the car up to 190 miles an hour i was heading towards that bridge and i didn't care what no one was thinking i didn't care about hurting my family me my career people who friends anybody i didn't care i didn't care about nothing i just wanted to die so bad i give up on life but when i set my mind to doing something i'll do it and every single time i've ever set my mind to anything i've done it even the unthinkable things i've set my mind to i've done it who thought i could come here and box like that after the two and a half year out the ring um i fought back from suicide and mental health and depression and anxiety and i wanted more than anything tonight to show the world that it can be done anything is possible with the right mindset if you believe in yourself you sacrifice and dedicate with the right help you can come back because when i sit here and say i was on the brink of suicide i mean suicide and i came back with the helper ben davison on the great team around me we were able to achieve what we achieved i am a true bred fighting mum if you look back a year ago today i was about 400 pounds i was in terrible shape i was so so terrible it's no secret what i've been through that's what true champions do you have to make two decisions on that floor stay down and as long as there's life left in this body i'll keep continue to find [Music] but it it's proof that anyone can come back from anything with the right mindset and right help anyone can do it it ain't just me i ain't a special human being i'm just a normal man but with the right help and the right guidance anyone can turn the life around and like i say i wasn't fighting for myself and when i was down it wasn't i wasn't just down on that campus in round 12 for me and my family i was that i was representing everybody who suffers around the world i had to get up i couldn't stay down i had to get up and show that you can continue and you can carry on and anything is possible warriors warrior man here class begins right now no matter how many years you've lived up till now no matter how many years you have yet to live no matter how many cups you've made in your life in the time you've had on this planet no matter no matter how much of that time you've wasted over and over and over right now is the moment you have that's all you've got right now as you're watching me you should be here now where are you where are you right now because most people can't concentrate on anything longer than 30 seconds and i hope i hope i hope you can be honest with me and tell me that you're looking right at me right now you realize that i've given you my total undivided attention because i want your mindset about yourself and about the world at large to change right now we're going to start with two things most people will say about virtues virtues being those things that you put in action that lead to positive good consequences vices being those things you do that lead to bad and negative consequences most people will say about virtues that the most important virtue to have is courage that all the other virtues will follow from courage or the most important virtue is integrity honesty or perseverance whichever one they choose is the most important one they say that's the first one you do that one you practice that one you put that one into action all the other ones will follow i disagree the most important virtue that you need to have at play that you need to have buried deep inside of you and it needs to be operating at its optimal levels all the time 24 7 is your belief your belief in yourself because if you don't believe first that who you are this being that you are this human being you are your life here on this planet is of a value is of a value in and of itself worth something then those other virtues won't mean anything to you at all they won't have any worthiness to you at all even if you happen to stumble by mistake or by accident across putting them to the action once in a while the first thing the first virtue you need to have operating at a hundred percent is your belief in yourself [Music] time to rise and shine again that you're getting another day another opportunity to do something great in this great life that you came here to live be a real shame if you do i am here today to interrupt your regularly scheduled programming with the truth bulletin and when i say regularly scheduled programming i don't mean your super bowl festivities i mean your life yesterday was a day for letting loose kicking back getting wild and crazy many different ways for many of you but today is another day to wake up and again smell reality to take your head out of your daydreaming ass and realize your life is real it's not a fantasy and it's time to quit indulging in activities and behaviors that only make you look like an idiot and only turn you into a fat ass unless you've got some companion you know or you can afford to have a self motivator a motivation coach beside you 24 hours a day to just keep you jacked up and inspired and energetic about making the right choices you're going to have to do it yourself you may not get it from the crowd of people that you hang with the people that you consider your friends [Music] what are you you're an animal you're an animal is created by a creator and you have a unique set of skills and tools and buildings and powers that makes you more powerful than any other creation or being or animal on this planet you have your mind your mind gives you a greater power than any other animal has been created and your potential in life lies there it begins and ends there what you will do in your life where you will go in your life [Music] is how much you believe in the power of this thing here there are no limits on what you can learn and know with your mind and what you can achieve how far you can push it what kind of demands can be placed on it what kind of challenges you can rise up to if you will only engage the power of your mind a lot of people tend to think that i never had a problem or i never have any temptation for other stuff i do but i look at the choices i have before me like when it comes to food and i ask myself what price am i going to pay and uh when i do indulge or have indulge i don't like the price that i pay but many of you because you write me you correspond with me you have made a habit out of making the wrong choices when it comes to food and eating habits and you have gotten to a place where you believe it doesn't matter anymore and that's what i want to call these mentoring minutes i want to call it it does matter it does matter it always matters all the time but you're surrounded by other people who also have convinced themselves that it doesn't matter i mean you you work in a place you go with a group of people to a regular lunch spot you all go in um probably in a lot of your casual conversation most of you talk about how you don't like the way you feel all the time that as you're getting older you feel like you don't have the same energy that you used to have when you were younger you don't like the way you fit in your clothes it's because you've made that all habit a bad habit and you can turn it around and you can develop good habits but you're going to have to take small steps and you're going to start now you have to start now with the choices that you make and most generally you are going to have to motivate yourself that's just the way it is that's why it's called self motivation but if you don't engage intensity or passion in your life then you aren't living your life to its fullest intensity passion for something will out do will win out over knowledge skills talent natural talent natural gifts every single time not that that stuff is not important but there are many examples throughout history of people simply because they were intense intense in an unusual sometimes off-putting way aggressive assertive determined to do what they had in their mind to do they make monuments to those people and those are the people that inspire me not because i have any idea inside of me whatsoever that i'm gonna have a monument built for me but i want to get the most out of my life and if you can't summons up the energy the excitement the enthusiasm for something then you're just your life every day is going to be a drag to wake up to [Music] when you crawl out from underneath the covers every morning and you sit on the edge of the bed [Music] you have a choice before you i mean we didn't make the world the way it is it's filled with alternatives always will be until we aren't here anymore it will always be alternative there will always be the good there always be the bad they'll always be the beautiful the royals be the ugly they'll always be the uh excellent and there will always be the incompetent there will always be what is wonderful and what is horrible we didn't make the rules of the world so fighting against that that fact that axiomatic truth that the world has created of alternatives and just a waste of energy but spending your energy [Music] on your choices that you make every day is where the secret lies [Music] but it isn't just about making prs in the weight room it's about living a strong life and you start with power and self-belief and that you are a unique individual this thumb print makes you different from the other six billion people on this planet and it stands for something it's not for nothing and you need to believe that with all that you are every cell or your body needs to believe that that you are one of a kind that you are an original and that you will not apologize for it at all the line stops right now the lying you do to yourself every day when you push back against the greatness that wants to come out of you from now on you do not give the benefit of the doubt to the rest of the world and all the other people on this planet you take your head out of the world's ass you start thinking for yourself and you realize that not everybody on this planet wants to be a leader not everybody on this planet wants to do something great in their lives like you feel that voice inside of you urging you on to do no you stop you don't apologize anymore for this greatness that lies in you and this desire you have to want to bring it alive no more no more at all the world needs the leaders and it needs you and that's why you're here that's why you stepped up to the edge of the cliff you weren't afraid and you're jumping off in free fall without a parachute and you're going to figure things out on the way down that's what we're going to do here at warrior university from here on out you stop lying to yourself
