JUST BECAUSE I WALK ALONE DOESN'T MEAN I'M LOST. - Motivational Speech

why do you do this thing every single day and what does it mean to you i want you to ask yourself those two questions every single day when you get tired when you're not feeling it when you don't value it when you take it for granted every single day why do i do this and what does it mean to you because if you say you do it for a certain reason and it means something to you every single day you'll come out and you'll never cheat it and you'll cherish every single aspect of it for the ability to become great the shortcut is a lie the hack doesn't get you there and if you want to take the easy road it won't take you to where you want to be stronger smarter faster healthier better to reach goals and overcome obstacles and be the best version of you possible will not happen by itself it will not happen cutting corners taking shortcuts or looking for the easy way there is no easy way there is only hard work late nights early mornings practice rehearsal repetition study sweat blood toil frustration and discipline it's one thing to be hungry it's another thing when you're starving for greatness and starving for success 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 i can't get a break in life i hate that damn mentality but i can't get a break you aren't giving any breaks in life you make them for yourself we are all being tested in life while my test is different than yours you will be tested and how you face that test and how you overcome that test determines the rest of your life the one mentality that you must have in life is that regardless of what's in front of you you still must grind i'll never be in the olympics i'll never be a professional athlete but still i grind i feel that most things i do but still i grind i don't want to do halftime i do but still i grind those people they'll 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 a dream to aspiration they'll tell you they want to be elite they'll tell you they want to be great but they're not gonna say i'm gonna stop going out on friday night they're not gonna say i'm a sacrifice and i'm gonna stay late they'll tell you the goals the dreams and the aspirations but cats will very rarely touch on what they gotta sacrifice in order to make it happen because wherever their sacrifice is interconnected to accountability and what i'm suggesting to you is pain can be transformed into power with the intention to transform pain into power you see what most people do is this is why most good people lose they stumble and they fall and they become heartbroken or disappointed by life's challenges that happens to every single one of us [Music] i am where i am currently because i didn't do x y and z and guess what that it hurts a little bit that bothers us a little bit it's a hard truth to accept but once you accept that truth you are able to then move forward with the actions required to get you to where you want to go your life is the exact reflection of the choices you have made love your life great you've made awesome choices hate your life i'm sorry you've made bad choices but the good news is you're in control i'm talking to you guys right now who still have hope who still have the fire who still have the want and the will and the desire to [ __ ] be more and become more and contribute more and win more because you know your life will be better and everybody else's life around you will be better i'm talking to you [ __ ] you can do this [Music] in other words when the outcome changes and it's not what we want it to be and it doesn't turn out the way we want it to turn out do we still value the thing that we once said we value is our character still intact right because we all know it character is not something we inherit character so we got to wake up every single day we got to fight and we got to build it in the midst of our position in the midst of challenges in the midst of uncertainty we got to wake up when we got to build i should tell guys all the time okay how tall your father is you got to do your own growing in other words every single day we got to build our own character when they look in the mirror they're just trying to see what's on the surface but winning and losing wants to know what's inside of you it wants to know what makes you tick it wants to know what your desires are i want you to know what your ego is it wants to know what your limitations are it wants to know what your mindset is it wants to know everything about you because winning does not lie when you look in the mirror you can lie and see what's on the surface cannot lie what's going on inside discipline defeats the infinite excuses that say not today not now i need a rest i'll do it tomorrow what's the hack how do you become stronger smarter faster healthier how do you become better how do you achieve true freedom there is only one way the way of discipline you either are [ __ ] aren't you either will or you [ __ ] won't you're either going to become or you're not going to become [Music] do [Music] you
