it's hard it's hard as hell there's no
easy answer to this there's no like okay
well every morning at six o'clock you
know wake up and meditate for ten
minutes and tell yourself you're
beautiful and then go like it's not it
doesn't work like that it's a constant
battle and you're gonna have moments of
complete and total defeat where it's
just like what am i doing like why do I
keep trying to do this look don't look
at my story you don't look at someone
else's story what's the story you want
[Music]
everyone's different you know cuz
everyone has a different story and I
think we get locked into like the
horrific stories it's like really easy
to say oh wow but that's such a
triumphant moment that he came out of
that you know and whatever but there are
a lot of kids who are struggling in
freakin La Jolla California or Beverly
Hills California or whatever zip code
that is doing really well on this planet
they're still struggling with self-worth
they're still struggling with identity
so just because it may not be that they
come from a really bad background they
still are having issues with reality and
what is what is something that they can
hold on to and what is something that
can anchor to and so the first step is
what do you want and and that question
becomes like a rabbit hole for figuring
out and pulling and dissecting and
coming through and then when we finally
get there then we see certain things in
their lives that have given them that
want or that desire or that curiosity
and then you just start working through
that and the more layers of success that
they can create the stronger their house
becomes right more bricks you are this
person you are this this individual and
people may not like that but this is who
you are and go out and be you it has
nothing to do with what you do
externally or what people say is how you
view yourself and what you do inside
you know put the put the victim to bed
and wake the hero up instead and the
next part of that is you have to be a
hero to yourself before you can save the
world and so you have to have that
moment of I am Who I am I'm comfortable
and who that is and I'm gonna go out and
use Who I am in the world in the best
way possible but I think that most
people they know what's holding them
back at some level and they just don't
want to be honest with it and then do a
lot to bury it and the older you get the
more it gets buried but I think if you
really look back on your life you can
say okay that's it and I just don't want
to take ownership of that and a lot of
times it's just like I said that shame
whether it happened to you or you did
you know it's that shame of just let go
shame like if anything we've proven in
this world like we're a world of
forgiveness like we will forgive people
who are honest and vulnerable and real
but you've got to be that first in order
for us to you know but you got to do
that for yourself first you got to
forgive yourself failure I think it's
more of our egos that we don't want to
say like failure exists it's like no
failure doesn't exist it's a learning
learning moment no you screwed up you
fail like let's just own that like
there's nothing wrong with that and yes
you should learn from those failures if
there's something you've been holding
and and heal through it and then share
it because guarantee there's somebody
else who's going through something
similar and you will be able to reach
them
the simplicity of just knowing that
you're not alone is is really not simple
it's it's massive because in those dark
moments you are alone
for the most part you are physically
alone and so then it's not that hard to
take it from a physical to a mental
state understanding that you're in
control you control your destiny you can
create what you want to create you have
gifts that nobody else on the planet has
you have talent you have everything
everything you need to become whatever
you want is right here right and and I
don't care what the limitations are
physical mental spiritual I don't care
any everything is there for you you're
better than you think you are all you
need is belief the belief that you can
succeed the belief that you can learn
educate yourself you have the power the
power to push the part of you that
sheltered yourself from this progress
that didn't allow you to grow and get
stronger you can be better you can
change to be better to be stronger and
become the person you need to be
transformed into the person with respect
respect for themselves respect for the
decisions you make appreciation for the
progress you're making how are you going
to make this transition are you willing
to change do you want to change
in order for you to succeed you need to
switch your mindset you need to know
that you want it be honest with yourself
be honest with your mistakes you have
one tool it's called time taste the
opportunity and feel the success feel
the power rise above you you have this
believe that you can know that you can
be the person you want to become in
reality you are your only limit are you
looking for success are you on that
journey to success already do you know
what path you're even on there's only
one way to know if someone's holding you
back if there are limits know that that
means you're making progress because you
know that you are working for it you're
gonna know when you're where you need to
be because you've been working for
limits shouldn't set you back
you need to struggle in order to succeed
you have the power to push past the
struggle push past the limits and to
learn from them and to learn from
yourself in the process you're on the
right path you're taking the journey so
you're immediately on the right path all
you need to do now is keep taking the
next step
embrace the mistakes and embrace these
challenges make this your time to make
your life somewhere that you find is
worth living build your empire build
your empire into something constructed
of your mistakes and then watch yourself
rise above them because limits shouldn't
make you any less of a person than you
want to be you're more than your
mistakes and you're even more than your
successes
you need to be you limits struggles
failures and successes at all in order
to take that path to make your life a
better place you don't realize the
privilege you have if you still have
time left to make a mark and if you
still have time left to live your dreams
then you will have no regrets and if
you're still able to work on your goals
and ideas there are a billion people
wasting that they were you stop with the
regret start feeling gifted and start
feeling blessed you have a chance to go
out there and make a mark you still have
the opportunity that so many don't
understand that you have the privilege
to succeed in life everyone wants to be
successful until they see what it takes
do you want to have it the spark of
inspiration the beauty of determination
the Landmarks towards success we all
want it you have to be brave enough to
take it can you be brave can you stand
up to the risks to the hurdles that
takes courage courage to face it rather
than running towards it with your eyes
closed that takes nothing anyone can do
that walk towards it with your eyes wide
open
be brave use your courage this is why
not everyone is successful only the ones
who have what it takes but you have what
it takes you have the potential the
potential to drive straight through the
hurdles become someone someone you
actually aspire to be someone your kids
can look up to or work and strength your
parents will take pride in you
can become that person you have what it
takes you need to want it have the
craving to succeed aspiration to want to
move away from your past self and move
forward towards the future you the
future you can become someone make it
happen make the time to move move

[Music]
don't wait waiting just waste time what
are you waiting for waiting for the
circumstances to change change them
yourself only you can make that happen
someone successful someone who has
purpose someone who has grown the time
is now to face the discipline fight
through the pain to reach power within
and to ultimately become an improved
person cross the bridge fight each day
for the success you've been waiting for
fight for the opportunity to thrive
outside your comfort zone these choices
don't come easily and definitely don't
come twice hard work pays off but in
order for that to happen you have to
fight through the pain the rejection and
the heartbreak
wake up each day with attitude to change
today you will walk with confidence
knowing that today will be the day you
face your fears of failure with that
attitude tomorrow or the next day
progress will be accomplished you will
know you faced the discipline and fought
your way out of your comfort zone
we need to feel pain to feel happiness
the pain drives us to strive for chains
just know that when life becomes hard
someday it's guaranteed that it will get
better maybe not right now but as long
as you try the chance of change and
success increases don't wait for the
opportunity to be handed to you on a
plate only you and just you can make
that happen
bend time willing and completing your
goals because nothing is impossible
progress can finally be made the barrier
can finally be broken happiness can
finally be seen in the horizon and your
mindset can finally be changed
