-
We have control of our minute, our hour
-
our day. our week, our month and our year.
-
Stop running around being on the
-
receiving end of whatever people want to
-
dump on you. You showed up you accepted
-
that invite you invited these people to
-
your house you're in a relationship with
-
that man you're in a relationship with
-
that woman. That's you so how do you feel
-
at the end of your night? How easy and
-
how convenient is it for us to blame
-
everything and everybody for the things
-
that we have going on in our lives. There
-
is a such thing as you being a positive
-
and a great person with the best of
-
intentions towards everybody and shit is
-
rough and you just can't get a break but
-
most of you most of you are waking up
-
every day looking for pain, dysfunction
-
drama, unemployment, being broke
-
struggling, dropping every excuse in the
-
book about your childhood and the
-
problems and dysfunction that you grew
-
up in that's stopping you from becoming
-
successful. You don't like your friends
-
so why are you still with them? You don't trust
-
your managers agents and lawyers so why
-
are they still there? Do you really expect
-
your life and career to be any different
-
from messing with the same things people
-
and situations. That's all I'm saying. Are
-
the things that you're doing the people
-
that you're hanging out with and the
-
places and the circles that you're
-
traveling in does that reflect a person
-
that actually loves themself? If you
-
love yourself why would you fuck with
-
those type of people? You know what
-
they're saying about you behind your
-
back you know they're jealous and
-
envious of who you are and the things that
-
you got going on in your life, in your
-
career. You know that they don't like you
-
and they've made it clear they've sent you
-
every sign imaginable that they could
-
possibly send
-
you and because you're so desperate to
-
have people around you and in your life
-
you continue to go back you continue to
-
show up to everything they invite you to
-
knowing what they're saying about you
-
I'm not preaching separatism. I don't want a
-
bunch of people to just be alone at home
-
doing nothing with no friends no family
-
and nothing to do I'm saying that at
-
this point you are old enough and mature
-
enough to understand the difference in
-
good people and bad people and when
-
you're hanging out with negative dark
-
and dysfunctional people you cannot
-
expect yourself to go to sleep at night
-
and rest you cannot expect yourself to
-
feel good about your day when you're
-
including negative and dysfunctional
-
people in your day.
-
Stop being a lazy bum ass person that's
-
full of excuses sitting around on the
-
pity party coming up with every excuse
-
in the world as to why you ain't winning.
-
You are the reason you're not winning
-
you keep messing with negative evil and
-
dysfunctional people and expecting
-
positive results it's time you get off
-
the pity party stop complaining about
-
being out of shape when you never go to
-
the gym stop looking at your stomach
-
when you get out of the shower and your
-
body and complaining about the way you
-
look when you're eating everything in
-
sight and never going to the gym. You are
-
the reason you look the way you look
-
you're the reason you're unemployed
-
you're the reason why your surroundings
-
are so dysfunctional and negative you can
-
still be in the hood broke and fucked up
-
and living a peaceful life. It's a choice
-
we are being raised in a generation of
-
people that come up with every excuse in
-
the book as to why they are not winning
-
you have every excuse in the reason the
-
book why you're not spending time with
-
your kids. Fathers, i'm talking to you
-
because you're able to create a child
-
doesn't mean that you're a father it
-
doesn't mean that you understand the
-
concept of fatherhood it's time to stop
-
coming up with excuses why five six
-
seven months and even years have went by
-
without you seeing your child it's wrong
-
and it's only the kids that are
-
suffering in the end I got drama I got
-
issues my shit is public knowledge I'm
-
doing any means necessary to spend time
-
with my little girl. Period. Say whatever
-
you want to say say whatever you want to
-
say and you can read whatever you want
-
to read I am, fully committed
-
to spending time with my little one. Period.
-
Excuses sound best to the people that's
-
making them up you got every excuse in
-
the world that's why your shit ain't
-
moving. That's why nothing changed and
-
nothing will change because you have
-
convinced yourself that everything is
-
wrong everything is negative and
-
nothing will change and guess what it
-
won't change. Change your mind and it
-
will change your life change if nothing
-
around you changes change the things
-
that are around you. I'm tired of it I'm
-
frustrated with the amount of people
-
that are not successful because they
-
have thought their way into a depression
-
you have thought your way into
-
negativity and misery you have thought
-
your way into holding on to a dude or a
-
girl that you broke up with a year or
-
two ago and you're still sad and
-
miserable and they've moved on with their life.
-
It's all in the mind change your mind
-
and it will change your life you just
-
have to you just have to wake up you
-
just have to break that negative spirit
-
you have to break through all of that
-
shit that your in care of. I don't want to
-
I don't feel sorry for you
-
you feel sorry for yourself that's the
-
problem even when positive people are
-
trying to give you all this good energy
-
you have tricked your mind to turn every
-
positive thing that they say into something
-
negative every time they say anything to
-
try and motivate you and inspire you you
-
you turn every negative thought and
-
every you turn every positive thought
-
every positive intention everything that
-
they trying to to boost your spirits up
-
you flip it shake it manipulate it and
-
you if you are so determined to be
-
negative and miserable it's unbelievable.
-
So what you grew up with them? So what they're
-
childhood friends? So what they're family?
-
We have a responsibility to walk in the
-
direction of peace I want to laugh I
-
want to smile, I wanna enjoy myself. I
-
actually want to feel good about the
-
people that are around me because you're
-
inviting me doesn't mean I want to show
-
up because you're calling me doesn't
-
mean I'm going to call you back because
-
you want me to be there doesn't mean
-
that I want to be there because we're
-
family because we're friends because we
-
grew up together doesn't mean that I
-
want to be a part of any and everything
-
that you want me to be a part of. Why?
-
Because my experience with you hasn't
-
necessarily made me feel good about my
-
life or my experience at the end of
-
every night because you go to sleep at
-
night doesn't mean you're resting. Because you
-
close your eyes at night and you are
-
asleep physically doesn't mean that you're
-
actually resting and the reason that you
-
don't rest is because while you're awake
-
everything and everybody thats in and around
-
your life is so full of issues problems insecurities
-
dysfunction negativity your mind
-
is and your spirit is in turmoil. Issues
-
problems arguments yelling screams
-
dysfunction I want you to stop playing
-
the victim you are not the victim you
-
decided that those are your friends you
-
decided that those are the people that
-
you want to spend time with you decided
-
this is what you wanted to do with your
-
day when you get invited to places
-
doesn't mean you have to show up no one
-
wants to be alone but why spend the rest of
-
your life being miserable frustrated and
-
insecure? Not really feeling as good as
-
you have a responsibility to feel
-
feeling good isn't just an opportunity
-
feeling good is a responsibility that we
-
all have for ourselves and guess what I
-
actually don't care what you say about
-
me I don't remember the last time I lost
-
sleep over a hater and the things that
-
people are running around saying blogs
-
websites conversations tweets and I don't
-
lose sleep over haters. Why? Because
-
I know exactly how I feel about me and
-
even if something appears to be very
-
different than what it really is I don't
-
even mind that you're talking shit about
-
the things that you're assuming that's
-
really going on
-
the question is are you just going to
-
look at this video and decide wow that
-
was some powerful shit and do the same thing?
-
But it's a new day... it's a new day.
