1
Forget about the month, forget about the year.
2
Focus on the 24 hours in front of you right now.
3
And do everything you possibly can to get you closer to where you want to be.
4
Failure isn't the opposite of success, it's tuition.
5
Every person that you admire has failed more times than anyone has ever even tried.
6
You need to remember that failure is the cost of mastery.
7
It's all about how you perceive it.
8
Winners see failure as proof that they can't win.
9
However, winners see failure as proof that they are learned.
10
And that is what I mean by you need to change your perspective.
11
Think of failure as the fee that you need to pay in order for growth.
12
So never try to avoid it.
13
Like everyone else, you want to learn the way to win, but never to accept the way to lose.
14
To accept defeat, to learn to die is to be liberated from it.
15
So when tomorrow comes, you must free your ambitious mind and learn the art of dying.
16
So here's the thing about becoming the better version of yourself.
17
In order to become the better version of yourself,
18
you literally have to kill off your original version because
19
if it lingers around it's going to find you again
20
and that's the thing people don't understand they're like i'm looking for the better version of myself
21
but in order to have the better version of yourself you
22
have to have a funeral for your old version greatness is built in silence The lonely training sessions.
23
The early cold mornings.
24
The dark and late nights.
25
Not for applause.
26
Not for praise.
27
But to prove.
28
To prove you're willing to suffer.
29
To prove you're ready to sacrifice.
30
To prove you're worthy of the dream.
31
Because greatness isn't given.
32
It's earned and ours no one sees At the end of every day, you look yourself in the mirror You ask yourself, did I get better today?
33
The answer is yes, and you do that for 5 years, 10 years, 15 years How much better are you going to be?
34
Are you getting better every single day?
35
That's the question, right?
36
And it's just taking small steps You don't try to get it all done in one day, in one week, in one year
37
right it's the process of getting better every day and doing that for a period of years
38
brother i'm convinced every man has a moment in his life where quitting would feel a lot like peace
39
but reality just the devil trying to convince you you're not worth your purpose don't stop
40
The only way to live is know you're going to die.
41
If you're afraid to die, you'll not be able to live.
42
The pain of discipline or the pain of regret.
43
Go for the discipline because it weighs ounces.
44
The regret weighs tons because it can accumulate.
45
Out of how you've been showing up lately, there's a lot on your plate, no doubt.
46
And it might feel like you're falling behind, but you're not.
47
You're overcoming stressful situations.
48
You're fighting for your mental health.
49
You're doing your best.
50
The only thing you're falling behind on is giving yourself the credit you deserve.
51
Because at any given moment, you're doing way better than your inner critic would like to admit.
52
You have a plan and you have a process.
53
When opposition, adversity, challenges, uncertainty pops up, The problem doesn't look as big.
54
The adversity doesn't look as big.
55
The challenges don't look as big.
56
When you got a plan and a process in place.
57
Now when you don't got a plan and a process in place, adversity and opposition shows up, uncertainty shows up.
58
Problems look real big.
59
The adversity looks real big.
60
You forget about the sacrifice.
61
You forget about the long hours.
62
You forget about the vision.
63
You forget about the mission.
64
Because you don't have a plan or process.
65
Right the process makes you stick to whatever it is that you're doing How bad do you want it?
66
We all know when we're relaxed exactly the person we want to become
67
The question is do we believe we can become it?
68
Without that belief every journey We've run into a debate That debate is when pain starts to fill the body
69
You weigh the temporary pain versus his lifetime of pride.
70
Champions find a way to make it happen.
71
No matter how long it takes, they find a way.
72
Champions find a way to get through their nerves.
73
So don't be ashamed to say you're nervous, but find a way to get over it.
74
Passion in the drive has to be followed by an action.
75
That's the hardest part.
76
People don't want to have that action.
77
Dreams want to live just like everybody else.
78
And if you don't bring them to life, somebody else will.
79
And you're going to be sitting there back thinking, man, I could have, I should have, I would have.
80
Boy, you had your chance.
81
You got to deliver.
82
You got to have action.
83
You got to deliver.
84
Ever tried.
85
Ever failed.
86
No matter.
87
Try again.
88
Fail again.
89
Fail better.
90
The world is yours.
91
you could either do the work today to become your highest version tomorrow
92
or tomorrow you can feel a lifelong of regret that's a given the people who know
93
that they were meant for more
94
and didn't go for more end up with a lifelong state of regret and the reason for that is is because
95
they didn't want to hurt the people around them, didn't want to hurt family members, but instead they gave in to the life of average just so they can blend in and not stand out.
96
And years later, they regret not doing the things that they could have done to become a winner.
97
We often don't realize we're in control.
98
We're in control of our own lives and we can make different choices.
99
And if the things in our life are not bringing us joy and happiness, if our career that we've devoted all of our lives to isn't bringing us joy,
100
we can change them.
101
If we decide our relationship is not the right relationship, we don't have to suffer in that relationship.
102
Stay in your comfort zone.
103
That's why you will fail.
104
To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.
105
You will fail in your comfort zone.
106
Success is not a comfortable procedure.
107
It is a very uncomfortable thing to attempt.
108
So you gotta get comfortable being uncomfortable if you ever wanna be successful.
109
Ask yourself, what do you really want?
110
What do you really want?
111
I mean, down inside, if you could have anything you want, what do you really want?
112
Let your mind take off.
113
You're a creative being.
114
There's nothing on the planet that's like you.
115
Give me evidence that you're not qualified to go get that.
116
Give me evidence that you're not qualified for a great life.
117
You have not.
118
You are ultra qualified.
119
No one can tell us what we're capable of except us.
120
And when we believe these truths, it's over.
121
You're unkillable.
122
You have the ability to take a sledgehammer to anything in your life and remake it.
123
Life is clay, so long as you realize that you can mold it
124
and shape it and change it to do what you want to do.
125
if you knew what you were doing then you would be stagnating
126
because you'd be doing nothing new and so
127
if you're going to do something new and that is what would be the catalyst for growth
128
and so you can't want to grow and also want to know everything you're doing at the same time
129
it's like the two beliefs contradict one another and so I think that's a lot of the discontent that people suffer from,
130
is they want two things that are polar opposites.
131
They want the really strong character.
132
They want the easy life.
133
Like one is the price of the other.
134
You don't want hardship.
135
Hardship creates growth.
136
And so they want both, and you can't.
137
Use the word destiny over and over throughout the book.
138
What does that mean to you?
139
It's a feeling you have that you know something about yourself nobody else does.
140
The picture you have in your mind of what you're about will come true.
141
It's kind of a thing you kind of have to keep to your own self
142
because it's a fragile feeling and you put it out there, somebody will kill it.
143
So it's best to keep that all inside.
144
Revisit your dream.
145
It doesn't cost anything to dream.
146
And our dreams need auditing.
147
As you go into this next year, it shouldn't just be doubling down on the same dream.
148
Really take some time and evaluate your real purpose.
149
D.O.
150
Moody said, our greatest fear should not be that we fail.
151
Our greatest fear should be that we succeed at something that doesn't matter.
152
And so if you really believe what you're doing matters, it gives you a peace through turmoil through difficulties through ups
153
and downs If I fail and the attempt to do something that matters, I can live with that You do realize
154
that this could be the year that you change your life You just log in, me and you both know you didn't stick to the script last year
155
But it's okay though because this year we're calling for everything
156
that we lost and more We ain't hearing the excuses no more your future is tired of
157
that You're the only one that can make it right, but you're also the only person that can mess it up Lock in
158
and change your life like your life depends on it because you do Understand that 2025 is right around the corner,
159
and if you want to make the most of it, this is what you're going to do.
160
Work on your personal craft, because it is only through a project that you are genuinely able to improve.
161
And most importantly, take action, because you will accomplish nothing unless you go out there and will it into existence.
162
If you're able to do all of those, I guarantee that you will have the best year of your life.
163
How much did they first pay you to give up on your dreams?
164
27 grand a year.
165
And when were you going to stop and come back and do what makes you happy? Of course.
166
I see guys who work at the same company for their entire lives.
167
Guys exactly like you.
168
They clock in, they clock out, and they never have a moment of happiness.
169
You have an opportunity here, Bob.
170
This is a rebirth.
171
I think having a purpose is that thing that makes us tick, that gets us up every day and gets us over the heart of opposition and adversity.
172
and the reason that I champion that burst in opposition is
173
because I think for the most part in life people pretty much know what to do
174
when things go right right like
175
when things go right they know how to feel they know how to act how to react
176
but it's when that opposition and that adversity comes
177
and it creates a level of misunderstanding right now the vision is blurred
178
now you don't have clarity about what you're supposed to do now you question
179
if your existence matters and i think when you have a purpose it's powerful
180
because in the midst of the opposition it makes you realize that you've been put here for a certain reason
181
if you make yourself more than just a man if you devote yourself to an idea you
182
And if they can't stop you, then you become something else entirely.
183
The legend is still hanging.
184
This is You Can't Fear Change.
185
In one of the beautiful passages in meditation, Mark Sreus reminds himself that everything in life comes from change, good and bad.
186
And by trying to keep things the same, not only are you, of course, focused on something that you don't control,
187
but you are preventing yourself from all the wonderful opportunities that exist that could come your way.
188
We live in a time of disruption.
189
We live in a time of institutions that are falling apart.
190
We live in a time of innovation, new institutions that are being created.
191
So you can't fear what's going to come of that.
192
What's going to come of that, the Stokes would say, all you could focus on this year is embracing those things, adapting yourself to change, acquiescing to that change,
193
rather than fighting it, rather than fearing it, rather than resenting it.
194
Because it's going to happen regardless of how you feel about it.
195
So what you should focus on, the Stokes would say, is what you're going to do about it.
196
Life is hard on the good days when you expect so much of yourself.
197
and when the bad days come around, keeping the promises feels almost impossible.
198
I wish I could explain to you the pit in my stomach in those moments, but I'm not sure I have the right words, to be honest.
199
Somehow I always see the other side of the promise kept, though, and the difficult part is that it doesn't provide the relief you'd hope it would.
200
My only consolation at times is that I know I did the right thing to maintain who I am,
201
because that is the one thing I cannot let myself lose.
202
One guy I can't want would you be frustrated, he always wins.
203
Stay hard.
204
The year's almost over.
205
It's been a tough year, right?
206
But we're not going to talk about that right now.
207
This is for making it through this tough year.
208
There's been a lot of good and bad, but I'm happy that you've made it this far and that you're still here.
209
Thank you for hanging in there, and I'm proud of you for staying strong.
210
If you wish to be the king of the jungle, it's not enough to act like a king.
211
He must be the king.
212
There can be no doubt.
213
Because doubt causes chaos and one's own demise.
214
Start something you believe in and give it everything you have.
215
Not for the applause, not for the outcome, but because it's yours.
216
Focus on the work, let it consume you.
217
Take small steps every day and watch how they compound.
218
What feels impossible now becomes inevitable over time.
219
perfection forget shortcuts mastery lives in repetition in the timeline for greatness is a lifetime
220
patients and you come out the other side you realize how much you grew through
221
that you start becoming grateful right one you become grateful for
222
what you just went to you cut you become grateful for the past experiences but Also, you become grateful for when you are going through tough situations in the future
223
because you understand that literally the situation in the season I'm in right now
224
is developing me in a certain way that maybe I can't see right now, but I know that if I keep showing up, keep taking it day by day, step by step, moment by moment,
225
I'm going to come out a better version of myself.
226
Man, I'm grateful for that.
227
Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men.
228
Find it easier to live in a world they'd be given than to explore the power they have to change it.
229
Impossible is not a fact.
230
It's an opinion.
231
Impossible is not a declaration.
232
It's a dare.
233
so i know why you go on instagram i know why you
234
because you just have the time you have the time
235
because you don't want to put
236
that time into bettering oneself you start going after your goals
237
and you start achieving them people will start looking at you differently
238
and secretly they will start hoping that you fail
239
because it will make them feel better about the action they have never taken.
240
Progression is an ugly road that leads to a beautiful place.
241
And the sad thing about that quote that's true is most people never get to that beautiful place because they never persevere.
242
They give up before it's their time.
243
They quit before they see their breakthrough.
244
That's why I love a breaking point because at a breaking point, that fork in a row, you got a choice.
245
You can break down or you can break through.
246
And when you choose to break through, those adversities strengthen you.
247
All those things that have come against you, it's treasonous.
248
That's why you gotta find a meaning, a mission that carries you through this stage of resistance.
249
Get started and stay consistent.
250
You have things to share with the world that only you can deliver.
251
But you'll never experience them if all you replay in your mind are doubts
252
and excuses on why going after your dreams now isn't a good time.
253
You have what it takes, Get out of your own way.
254
Don't count yourself out yet.
255
Everything you want to achieve is possible.
256
It might take time, effort, and discipline, but it's all within reach.
257
So if you're in the woods and you don't know where to go, start walking.
258
You've got to start walking because the perspective is not going to change.
259
You have to start moving forward.
260
You have to start taking steps in order to improve your vision, improve your perspective, change your perspective, make some kind of progress.
261
And worst case scenario, you figure out that you walked the wrong direction.
262
Okay, now you can walk in the other direction.
263
And that's going to be fine.
264
But standing there lost and not doing anything is just waiting to die, waiting to starve to death.
265
The only thing in life that stands between you, everything you've ever wanted to do, is doing it.
266
Not preparing to do it, not scheduling time to do it, not telling people you're going to do it, not reading books about how to do it, not watching videos about how to do it,
267
but instead, actually doing it.
268
There's a saying, this quote that I really believe in, that when the pain of the current reality becomes greater than the fear of change, that's when we change.
269
So like when you become, when the pain becomes so intense that it's greater than the fear that you have of the unknown, then you'll go into the unknown.
270
You can stand there at the door looking at this abyss, but when it becomes so painful that you walk into that, that's when the change happens.
271
But there's a hell of a lot more to you than you think, like way more.
272
Enough to cope with the trouble of the world inside you.
273
There's enough to cope with the trouble of the world.
274
And if you had enough courage, you could let that out.
275
Enough courage and faith, you could let that out.
276
And everything would be better because of it.
277
Only fail because they get caught up into what winning was.
278
It's supposed to fail at some point in time.
279
You're supposed to get knocked down a couple times.
280
You're supposed to lose.
281
That's how you learn.
282
Perfection is only a word because imperfection was discovered.
283
You can't be perfect without knowing what imperfect is.
284
You have to experience imperfection at some point to go, now I'm perfect.
285
Feel something is shifted.
286
Some people are not strong enough to adapt to the change.
287
Some people don't know how to put it into practice in order to go with the change.
288
There will come the time, and it's not going to take long, where a natural separation is going to take place.
289
A natural separation.
290
The ones that are able to read the signs, that are able to go with what is happening, to adapt to the changes this world is bringing to us,
291
they will move on to another world.
292
Other people that are unwilling, unable, may be incapable of adapting to the coming changes.
293
It is simple like this.
294
They will stay with the old world which is about to end.
295
An eagle flies at a certain altitude and the only other bird flies at that altitude is another eagle.
296
So if he finds himself flocking with pigeons, he may be flying too low.
297
One of the things limiting you from your income, your impact, a world-class life.
298
You care too much about what people think about you.
299
You can be world-class, you can fit in with the world, you don't get to do both.
300
One thing I've learned is everyone has an opinion.
301
Why let the opinions of other people deny you from a life that will make history?
302
This is my question to you.
303
When you're going to free yourself, how long are you going to stay in this pain expecting change to happen in your life?
304
How long are you going to stay in this situation expecting things to change in your life?
305
You've been here for the last year, the last five years, the last decade, staying in the same mess, accepting the same mess and wondering why you're stressed, wondering why you're not happy,
306
wondering why you're not fulfilled, wondering why you're not experiencing the life that you deserve to experience.
307
When you're going to free yourself from the pain, where you gonna free yourself from selling for less
308
because I want to tell you right now you don't have to accept it I know you know
309
that but I need you to feel that understand
310
that you don't gotta accept it you have to stay where you're just tolerated and not celebrated
311
you don't have to stay where you're not happy you don't
312
have to stay where you're not being better you don't have
313
to stay where you're suffering you can free yourself from it
314
It's our darkness that brings us closer to one another.
315
It's all the shared broken pieces of our souls.
316
Don't be ashamed of your darkness.
317
All the mistakes that you've made have made you.
318
Redemption is always on the other side of a moment.
319
Every passing moment is another chance to turn it all around.
320
Keep fighting.
321
Don't go gently into that good night.
322
For as long as you are here, hope dies last.
323
Someone who does not acknowledge the dark side of themselves, and who is only good because that's all that they know how to be and that's all that they know of themselves,
324
is not really a good person
325
because they're only doing what they know versus someone who's delved
326
into the darkness of humanity the pain of it the despair of it
327
and then chooses to be good
328
and chooses to do something that's the true good person right
329
that's the person we're all aspiring to be not someone who's ignored the pain
330
but someone who's chosen to do something with the pain
331
You have to learn to select your thoughts the same way that you select your clothes every day.
332
Now that's a power that you can cultivate.
333
Because if you can't master your thoughts, you're in trouble forever.
334
The gods envy us.
335
They envy us because we're mortal.
336
Because any moment might be our last.
337
Everything's more beautiful because we're doomed.
338
You will never be lovelier than you are now.
339
We will never be here again.
340
The Persian poet Rumi once wrote, What hurts you blesses you.
341
Darkness is your candle.
342
Everything in life is trying to teach you something.
343
You just have to pay attention.
344
You've got to be ready to change your life.
345
No one said this was going to be easy.
346
You have to keep on keeping on.
347
You think life was meant for the weak?
348
It wasn't, it never was.
349
I'm telling you, just keep on going.
350
And then climbed back out.
351
That's why we have hero stories, right?
352
There's always the hero has to go through down into hell, and then climb back up.
353
And that's what we admire, that's what we respect, that's what we give dignity to.
354
So if we're not respecting that in ourselves, in our own innate ability to go dark, and then climb back out, we're not dignifying ourselves.
355
You've got to be ready to change your life.
356
No one said this was going to be easy.
357
You have to keep on keeping on. So get back up.
358
Make the most of this life you have.
359
You're here.
360
You're here now.
361
The time is always now.
362
Nothing in this life lasts, even our troubles.
363
Keep going, my friend.
364
Just keep going.
365
In the end it's all going to be alright.
366
And if it's not, then it's not the end.
367
Please just keep going.
368
and really ask yourself that question what is it essentially that you are looking for living this life
369
regardless of how old you are right now How much of where you want to go did you achieve already?
370
And also, are you actually still finding yourself on the way to wherever you wanted to go?
371
So first of all, before we even know which future direction you would like to go towards,
372
number one is we need to know where are we actually standing right now.
373
Another way of finding happiness internally,
374
of finding everything that you need inside of you rather than outside from other people or just outside in the world,
375
externals, is to also find responsibility there.
376
So your responsibility is not to anyone or anything outside of you, but inside of you.
377
Because we often have this idea, like animals do, or like children sometimes do, that if no one saw it, it's fine.
378
If we didn't get caught, it's okay.
379
The judge inside of us, constantly watching, because it's us.
380
It's within us.
381
Adversity is the worst, right?
382
Experiencing fortune's habit, as Seneca put it, of behaving however she pleases is brutal, right?
383
Exiles, illnesses, financial setbacks, shipwrecks, floods, and famines, these types of reverses are bad, right?
384
They don't have to be.
385
Let's also say that change is neither good nor bad, it simply is.
386
It can be greeted with terror or joy, a tantrum that says I want it the way it was
387
or a dance that says look something new but the Stoics knew
388
that it was more than just a game of perception it's
389
what you do about it it's how you respond you choose
390
to see the events of life neither good nor bad just objective just reality yes that's part one
391
but part two is the most important it's the making them good it's seeing it not just as new
392
but as a new opportunity
393
and then making good on it as Stockdale said making it something that in retrospect you never have traded away.
394
So one said we have two primary choices in life.
395
We can either accept conditions as they exist, or we can take the responsibility to change them.
396
See, a lot of people want to exempt themselves from taking responsibility.
397
All they want to do is talk about the problem.
398
Every time you see them, they'll tell you their story over and over and over and over again.
399
No, no. take responsibility for your life.
400
I got me here, I can get me out of this.
401
And I'm getting out.
402
I'm not going to be a volunteer victim.
403
So your laziness is something that has to do with you.
404
You're not connected to something deep enough.
405
You don't feel the necessity.
406
You don't feel the devil at your heels.
407
You don't feel the fact that you could very well die tomorrow that will impel you to get something done.
408
There's no necessity behind it.
409
And the human animal that we were created is when we feel pressure, we feel the necessity to get things done.
410
We can move mountains.
411
But when that pressure, like almost like a barometric pressure releases, and we don't feel the need to get something done,
412
we could become incredibly lazy because there's no necessity.
413
So you have to create necessity in your life.
414
You have to create the need to get things done.
415
You have to give yourself deadlines.
416
You have to remind yourself that tomorrow everything you go kapooom, you could be fired, you could die, you could have an illness.
417
Give yourselves a sense of urgency that I need to get things done.
418
You think everybody else is gonna die, not you.
419
You kind of consciously know, but you live like you got time.
420
I'll get around to being happy.
421
I'll get around to making it happen I'll get around once
422
things are in place then I'm really gonna dial it in
423
you don't think you're gonna die begin with the end in
424
mind that's true in life who do you want to be
425
in the end what do you want to see where do
426
you want to go what do you want to felt who
427
do you want to help what do you want to achieve what legacy you want to live if any
428
and you're gonna worry about what people think you're gonna worry about the things you're scared of this is your life.
429
You won't start to get after it.
430
I want to ask you a question.
431
What are your fears?
432
What are you scared of?
433
Something that's blocking us, that's holding us back.
434
Some people call fear false evidence appearing real.
435
You acknowledge it, you take it into account, and you carry yourself accordingly.
436
There are times that we should proceed with caution,
437
but it's the difference between being stopped by fear is the difference between having a fear and the fear having you
438
you will never feel ready to do things
439
that scare you you will never feel ready to take
440
that leap this is where the five second rule comes in super handy
441
so if you are constantly procrastinating you probably have a bias towards thinking
442
and you can use the five second rule to literally push
443
yourself to take action all you're going to do is count
444
backwards five four three two one that's it counting backwards five
445
four three two one requires you to focus this is a starting ritual
446
that interrupts the patterns of overthinking of fear of anxiety of procrastination five four three two one move
447
and here's the real secret to this the second you started counting you actually made a decision change.
448
Listen, everything we think comes into existence.
449
So only think things that you want to come into existence.
450
How you think creates how you feel.
451
How you feel becomes an emotion.
452
That emotion becomes a vibration.
453
That vibration becomes a magnet that attracts things to you.
454
The truth is you'll never have it all figured out.
455
And that's okay.
456
The only thing that matters is that you start.
457
Even if it's messy, even if it's imperfect.
458
The only way to make progress is to take that first step, even if you don't know where the second one will lead.
459
Perfection is about control, about seeking something that is impossible to hold on to.
460
But progress, progress is about moving forward.
461
It's about learning, growing, stumbling, and getting back up.
462
Progress is messy, raw, imperfect and beautiful all at once.
463
It's about taking action, even when you're unsure.
464
The people who achieve great things are not the ones who waited until everything was flawless.
465
They're the ones who were willing to move forward even when they weren't ready.
466
They acted.
467
They made mistakes.
468
They learned from them.
469
And each small step, each decision, each action, however imperfect, added up over time.
470
They didn't worry about getting everything perfect.
471
They just focused on getting better.
472
And that's the key.
473
Progress isn't about reaching perfection.
474
It's about becoming better than you were yesterday.
475
Every day is an opportunity to grow, to evolve, to take one more step forward.
476
Even when it feels like progress is slow.
477
because the small, consistent efforts you make today are what build the foundation for tomorrow's success.
478
There's freedom in progress.
479
It's about giving yourself permission to grow without needing to have everything perfect.
480
It's about embracing the discomfort of starting before you're ready,
481
of taking that first step even if you don't have the whole plan figured out.
482
You don't need the perfect blueprint.
483
You just need the courage to move forward.
484
Perfection keeps you stuck in a dream world.
485
One where everything is idealized and nothing real can ever happen.
486
It's a world of waiting for the right conditions.
487
The right opportunity.
488
The right timing. But progress?
489
Progress forces you to deal with reality.
490
It forces you to confront where you are.
491
Accept that you're not perfect. and keep moving anyway.
492
Life isn't about creating a perfect image of yourself.
493
It's about growing into the best version of who you already are.
494
And that growth doesn't come from waiting.
495
It comes from doing.
496
It comes from learning through doing, through failing, through adjusting, and through keeping your focus on progress, not perfection.
497
In the end, it's not about being perfect.
498
It's about being better than you were yesterday.
499
Each day, you get one step closer to the person you're becoming.
500
Not because everything aligns perfectly, but because you keep moving forward despite the imperfections.
501
The road will never be perfect.
502
The plan will never be flawless.
503
The conditions will never be ideal.
504
But the magic happens when you start anyway.
505
The moment you stop waiting for the perfect time, it is the moment you begin to create your own opportunities.
506
So stop waiting.
507
Stop trying to make it all perfect.
508
Start moving.
509
Start doing.
510
Start learning.
511
Let go of the idea that everything needs to be flawless.
512
And instead, embrace the mess, the progress, the beautiful imperfect journey.
513
because progress, not perfection, is what gets you where you want to go.
514
Every step, every effort, every imperfect action you take
515
brings you closer to the version of yourself that you've always dreamed of becoming.
516
Perfection is an illusion.
517
Progress is reality.
518
So focus on moving forward, no matter how small the steps.
519
Because the person you want to be is out there waiting for you.
520
Just on the other side of every imperfect action you take today.
521
And all of us have this conflict going on at all times inside of us.
522
And it's between two forces.
523
And the first force is your survival instinct that's been with us for thousands, if not tens of thousands of years.
524
It wants this inject into you fear and doubt and worry and anxiety.
525
It wants you to fight or flight.
526
And that's kind of your voice of fear and your inner critic.
527
And that's really loud.
528
That voice is in your mind all the time.
529
and then there's another voice the second voice and
530
that voice has been written about and talked about by philosophers thousands of years
531
and that voice has been called many names it's been called your intuition
532
that voice is a little quieter and
533
that voice isn't in your head a lot of times it
534
shows up in your body it shows up in your heart gut your you know your chest you feel
535
that and unfortunately that first voice really drowns us out a lot of times
536
and the thing is that the voice of fear will lead you to a life that's too small.
537
And you know this, you already know this, and the reason you, the way that you know this is you feel this, you know, you feel this conflict,
538
this dissonance and tension when you're in that position, when you're doing something that's too small.
539
If you want to reach full power in this one life of yours, it's in the second voice.
540
It's in the voice that's the real you.
541
So if your false identity says that you're a loser, you're a deadbeat, you're not deserving, you're a failure, you're not worthy, you will find evidence in the world to reinforce that.
542
If your identity then says, I'm a winner, I'm deserving, deserve happiness, abundance, joy, success, I will always find evidence in the world to find that.
543
It starts off with rewriting your story.
544
Be specific about how you want your life to look in the categories that matter.
545
Write down specifically what you want your life to look.
546
And then once you write that down, go, what are the habits that this mutt needs to have in order to bring that story to life?
547
When you bring that story to life, the false identity sheds and the new identity is developed.
548
It's a long ride, and it's totally worth it because it's not about where you get.
549
It's about who you become in the process of getting there.
550
And when you quit, you'll never meet that person.
551
The hard part of quitting is not just that you lost your dream.
552
That's bad.
553
Worse is you're never going to meet the man or woman you could have been had you pursued it.
554
But what is even way better than you think it will be
555
It's who you become in the process of getting there
556
and being proud of you
557
And I could tell you the things you'd be most proud of is the fact
558
that you lasted Is the fact
559
that you got up after you quit is the fact you go you know what I did quit
560
but I'm getting back I'm getting back up.
561
I lasted.
562
I'm tough.
563
I'm resilient.
564
I'm mentally tough I innovated I pivoted I improved I grew I thought I clawed I competed I won
565
That's way better than you think it is.
566
It's way better.
567
Man, remember that when I almost quit?
568
Remember that time I was down for a while?
569
Remember when that person said this?
570
Remember when that controversy?
571
Man, that one would have knocked anybody.
572
Remember when that person stole from me?
573
Remember when that person did this to me?
574
Just so you know, everything you think probably bad will happen, probably will and worse.
575
And that's what makes it so sweet when you last.
576
Live your life at full power.
577
and I believe that that power is already inside you right now,
578
and that the way to access that power is through your second voice.
579
And your second voice is not just the path to accessing that power, but it will also show you where to direct it, to have the biggest impact that you're going to have in this world.
580
That voice speaks to you in the language of energy.
581
That's how you know what it's saying.
582
So go toward that energy and make a promise
583
that you will constantly move in the direction of the thing
584
that gives you energy Particularly the thing you knew you would do
585
if you knew you wouldn't fail that voice wants you to go all in
586
It wants you to experience Yourself at full power
587
So make a promise that you will not wait
588
that you will not out of the words not now
589
But you'll go all in with wherever you are in your life right now.
590
I used to think that there were millions of decisions that we would make, and that life was really complicated.
591
I think that I've realized if you want to live at full power
592
and feel the full magnitude of what you can do in this one life that you have, that there's really only one decision.
593
Which voice will you listen to?
594
I think when you feel stuck or dissatisfied in your life, it's a signal.
595
And it's not a signal that your life is broken
596
It's a signal that one of your most basic needs are not being met Your need for exploration
597
Everything about your life about your body grows your cells regenerate
598
your hair your nails everything grows for your entire life and
599
your soul needs Exploration and growth
600
and the only way you'll get it is by forcing your cells to be uncomfortable
601
so get out of your head your feelings your feelings are
602
screwing you I don't care how you feel I care about what you want
603
and if you listen to how you feel
604
when it comes to what you want you will not get
605
it a human being has to have a sense of purpose the feeling of no purpose is suicidal
606
so So what people do is they create a false sense of purpose.
607
Their false sense of purpose will be attention.
608
If I get so much attention from people and so much recognition, then I'm fulfilled.
609
But then you can never realize that.
610
You can never get enough attention.
611
It's an individual.
612
You had a purpose in life.
613
You had something you were meant to achieve.
614
Because you have a unique DNA, unique genetics, and unique parents, a unique experience, something about you is truly original and weird.
615
And to the degree that you mind that weirdness and your uniqueness, you can become fulfilled.
616
You can create something beautiful and lasting.
617
We live in a world obsessed with perfection.
618
The perfect body, the perfect career, the perfect relationship, the perfect life.
619
We scroll through social media, flipping past polished images, filtered moments, and curated stories.
620
It's all so easy to get caught up in this illusion of perfection.
621
That if you just get everything right, just line up all the pieces, then success and happiness will follow.
622
But here's the truth.
623
Perfection doesn't exist.
624
It's an illusion.
625
A moving target.
626
that you'll never quite hit.
627
And the more you chase it, the more you waste time trying to get everything just right, the further you'll drift from your real goal.
628
Because perfection isn't the goal, progress is.
629
We are conditioned to think that we need to have everything aligned before we can move forward.
630
We wait for the perfect moment, the perfect plan, the perfect circumstances.
631
But while we're waiting, life is passing us by.
632
The version of you who has the life you dream of isn't the one waiting for things to be perfect.
633
It's the one moving forward, no matter how imperfect the journey looked.
634
The problem with perfection is that it paralyzes you.
635
It keeps you stuck in the planning phase, in the research phase, in the thinking phase,
636
forever refining, forever adjusting, never doing.
637
You wait for the moment when everything aligns, but by the time it does, you've lost so much time that it hardly matters.
638
If you're constantly waiting for things to be perfect, you're wasting your life away.
639
You're stuck in a cycle of waiting and doubting.
640
You tell yourself, I'll start once I have this figured out, but that day never comes.
641
The only way to handle danger is to face it.
642
If you start getting frightened of it, then you make it worse.
643
Because you project onto it all kinds of bogeys and threats which don't exist in it at all.
644
The rule for all terrors is head straight into them.
645
When you are sailing in a storm, you don't let a wave hit your boat on the side.
646
You go bow into the wave and ride it.
647
So in the same way old folklore says, this is an old wives tale with a lot of truth in it, whenever you meet a ghost, don't run away.
648
Because the ghost will capture the substance of your fear and materialize itself out of your own substance.
649
You've made a commitment to pursuing a better life for yourself.
650
to pursuing your dreams and ambitions.
651
And unfortunately, it just so happens that when you do that, things can get pretty lonely.
652
It gets really difficult sometimes.
653
Because now you have to face adversity and challenges by yourself.
654
You are exactly where you need to be.
655
Far too many people abandon their path.
656
It's because they forget their why.
657
Why they chose this journey in the first place.
658
There's two paths in life.
659
This is the path I chose a long time ago.
660
It's the lonely road.
661
You're going to feel alone all the time.
662
You can have team around.
663
You can have mentors.
664
Trust me.
665
You'll feel alone.
666
You're going to wake up earlier than everybody else.
667
You're going to go to bed later.
668
Most everybody else will do this.
669
The crowded road.
670
It's well lit.
671
There's navigational equipment.
672
There's directions.
673
Really good roads.
674
The lonely road?
675
No navigational equipment most of the time.
676
It's dark.
677
It's not well lit.
678
There's a huge ups and downs.
679
Woo!
680
Massive turns.
681
Rogue kill along the side of other people who quit on their dreams.
682
Or you can go back to where all these guys are.
683
Man, if I want to be good, I gotta wake up in the morning, I gotta do the extra work.
684
And I gotta show up when other guys aren't.
685
And I've gotta learn.
686
I've gotta continue to be open to learning.
687
Don't allow your emotions to control you.
688
We are emotional, but you want to begin to discipline your emotion.
689
If you don't discipline and contain your emotions, they will use you.
690
Your mind goes on automatic, just like a god.
691
You know, I loved reading the book called As a Man Thinking by James Allen.
692
He uses the analogy of the mind being like a garden.
693
You know, weeds don't have to have any encouragement to grow.
694
But if you want to grow orchids or roses or any kind of exotic flowers, there are special processes and procedures you must go through.
695
Well, by the same token, you don't have to force yourself or motivate yourself to think negatively, to be depressed, to hate somebody,
696
to want revenge, to want to get back at somebody, to beat yourself up over the head, to feel loaded with guilt.
697
You don't have to make any effort to do that.
698
Your mind is on automatic.
699
It will do that by itself
700
But if you want to begin to move into your own personal greatness
701
If you want to begin to really enjoy a happy successful
702
healthy life You've got to be willing to go against the tide.
703
You've got to be willing to harness your will And say in spite of this
704
I'm in control here I'm not gonna let this get me down.
705
I'm not gonna let this destroy me.
706
I'm coming back And I'll be stronger and better because of it.
707
You have got to make a declaration That this is what you stand for You're standing up for your dreams.
708
You're standing up for peace of mind.
709
You're standing up for health You want it and you're gonna go all out to have it It's not on everybody else,
710
it's on you.
711
You have to make things happen.
712
Nothing is going to be given to you.
713
Everything is to be found within, including this.
714
And yeah, sometimes it's very difficult to even admit to oneself of having done wrong.
715
And this doesn't mean that if you've done wrong
716
and you did look over your shoulder and you saw
717
that no one saw you and you just moved on without taking responsibility, that you now have to act like that forever.
718
Philosophy is also, and that judge within you, is also very forgiving.
719
As harsh as that judge is, the judge does allow you to come back time and time again and to try again to be better.
720
Because in the long run, that's all that matters.
721
That we become better, as best as we can become.
722
Not to this or that standard, but truly, honestly, the best that we could possibly be.
723
Believe in your vision like it's already done.
724
Let that belief be so deep that no setback, no rejection, no external noise can change it.
725
You already know what you're capable of.
726
Now it's about showing up every day and proving it.
727
It won't always make sense to others.
728
That's fine.
729
Your path isn't about their approval.
730
It's about your transformation.
731
Trust that if you refuse to quit, life will eventually hand you the reward that's meant for you.
732
Stay relentless.
733
Stay locked in.
734
You already have everything you need to win.
735
You have to make things happen.
736
You have to do it yourself.
737
No one's gonna give it to you.
738
When you look back on it, you find that your whole life is a series of remarkable coincidences that initially looked like difficulties or setbacks,
739
but in retrospect, they contained within the valuable lessons
740
that you needed to learn in order to achieve the goals that you achieved.
741
Thank you.

Aussprache, auf die du achten solltest
Der Sprecher verwendet 264 Kurzformen und abgeschwächte Formen, zum Beispiel you're, don't, I'm. Sprich sie in der kurzen Form, so wie du sie hörst.
- Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: perfection /pɚˈfɛk.ʃən/, emotion /ɪˈməʊ.ʃən/, illusion /ɪˈl(j)uːʒ(ə)n/, imperfection /ɪmpɚˈfɛkʃən/, hardship /ˈhɑɹdˌʃɪp/
- Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: adversity /ædˈvɜː.sɪ.ti/, necessity /nɪˈsɛsəti/, uncomfortable /ʌnˈkʌm.fɚ.tə.bl̩/, imperfection /ɪmpɚˈfɛkʃən/, uncertainty /ʌnˈsɜːtənti/
Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:
- /w/ — mit runden Lippen, nicht wie das deutsche „w“ (/v/): qualify /ˈkwɑ.lɪ.faɪ/, backward /ˈbækwɚd/, weigh /weɪ/
- Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: backward /ˈbækwɚd/, applause /əˈplɔːz/, altitude /ˈælt.ɪˌtjuːd/, ashamed /əˈʃeɪmd/, acknowledge /əkˈnɑ.lɪd͡ʒ/
- /æ/ — offener als „ä“: adversity /ædˈvɜː.sɪ.ti/, adapt /əˈdæpt/, setback /ˈsɛtbæk/, mastery /ˈmæs.tɚ.i/, backward /ˈbækwɚd/
So übst du mit diesem Video
- Höre dir das ganze Video einmal an, ohne zu sprechen, und notiere die Wörter, die du nicht kennst.
- Beginne mit 0,75-facher Geschwindigkeit, sprich Satz für Satz nach und wechsle zur normalen Geschwindigkeit, sobald es leichtfällt.
- Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie perfection, adversity, imperfect.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
