If your life was a movie and people were watching up to this point,

what would the audience be screaming at the screen telling you to do with your life?

The man who waits for a perfect shot will die with his bow still drawn.

You get one chance, one opportunity, one shot at life.

Every time you miss a meal, every time you skip the gym, that shit adds up.

You have to do what you say you're going to.

Make the sacrifices you committed to.

You had the opportunity to wake up today.

Don't waste it.

Called me at 7 .36 p .m.

I remember the number.

Hey, Pop.

Hey, what's up, Monkey Man?

I was listening.

Can I talk to you about something?

Sure.

I said, Dad, I don't want to go to law school anymore.

I want to go to film school.

I said, listen.

I'm like, a little beat of sweat starts to go down the back of my neck.

I'm like, here it comes.

You want what?

I thought he was gonna go into all this stuff about, like, my ass, you think I'm paying for that?

You know, that could be a hobby, but that's not a drill job.

I thought all this was coming.

And after about a five -second pause, he goes, I hear this.

Are you sure that's what you want to do?

Yes, sir.

Another long pause.

Then I hear, well, don't half -ass it.

And the way he said don't half -ass it was also, okay.

Let's go, big boy.

Own that shit.

Take the next three months and donate that time to your future self.

Commit to something that you're going to thank yourself for doing a year from today.

Just accept the fact right now

that the next 90 days of your life do not belong to the current version of yourself.

It belongs to the future version of yourself.

Because all it takes is three months of consistent action to set yourself up for a successful year.

This time next year, you don't want to look back and say to yourself, damn, I wish I spent my time doing this.

I wish I spent my time doing that.

Instead, you're going to look back and you're going to say, thank God I spent the first 90 days of the year doing that.

Because that got the ball rolling.

That created the momentum to achieve everything that I've achieved this year.

I'm now where I want to be because I spent the first 90 days building momentum.

So how are you going to spend the next three months?

Are you going to set yourself up for success?

Or is it just going to be another year?

Believing yourself more than you have ever believed in your entire life.

You can be iconic.

You are great you are one of one and to stay consistent even

when the road looks rough

and you cannot see the hole at the end of the tunnel

because that's something

that most people usually jump off the railroad for they can't see the outcome once it gets kind of blurry

and it's foggy and the nose

or like like I said my car got repossessed most people quit that's the point most people quit you

You know what I hear?

I hear the clock ticking.

That's what I hear and the end is nigh and time waits for no man.

And you young guns out there, 18 years old, 20 years old, 24 years old, listen.

Life goes by and it goes by quick.

don't waste those years don't waste them live them see your problem is

that you keep rushing the process

you ain't trying to be patient good things come to those who wait

this ain't a sprint this is a marathon

and the more you keep worrying about the future the more

you gonna get lost in the prison you got to get up

and just put one foot in front of the other branches have

that blind faith but what I will say is

that we don't know when it's happening

but we know what's coming we ain't putting this work in for no reason

so for that I say keep grinding and I believe in you.

The reason that you are not as great as you could be is because you can't take pain.

The reason that you are a aborted is because you get frustrated

and disappointed with the slow pace of the fulfillment of your desire.

So you abort the process and wonder why you're a bum on life's highway.

The three -step process of how to win.

Number one realize no one is coming to save you

Number two take responsibility for your current position

Number three be willing to sacrifice who you are for who you want to be you will never

Accomplish or achieve anything that you want out of life if you're not willing to take the risk

What is your worst case scenario?

Do not be afraid to take risk.

We don't have time

There's not a lot of time and it does seem like we're gonna live forever, but we're not don't be afraid to take a risk

Don't be the guy sitting home alone at whatever his age was at that point in your fucking apartment thinking,

I could have done more than this.

I could have been bigger than this.

I could have been better than this.

If you really want to be great at something, it definitely doesn't happen overnight.

It's not going to happen in a year or two.

And even if you're having a great season or you're having a career year, there's still so much more room to continue to improve.

You know, it's still much more room for you to continue with the process of becoming great where it's sustainable.

Hey, bro, look, good days, bad days, keep going.

See look, me and you both know life is unpredictable.

But the one thing that you should be able to predict is the fact

that you're going to show up the next day.

You should be able to count on yourself and know that when in doubt, you got you.

100

Keep it going, bruh.

101

I believe in you.

102

Someone said to me the reason you want it so badly is

103

because the version of you in the future already has it.

104

Someone also said to me God would never put anything in your head he didn't think you could achieve.

105

all those beliefs you have all those thoughts you have of the dreams you could achieve

106

they're there for a reason it's not just a thought it's a reality of the future

107

and it's your duty to single -handedly take the steps to get there the question is are you willing to

108

because it's there it's real

109

and it's happening what are you going to do about it it's just hard

110

when you're growing when you're when you're not where you want to be in life

111

and If you're listening to this and you're just not satisfied with your position in life, it's hard to think that way.

112

All you want is that thing.

113

But you've got to somewhere along the line figure out how to enjoy yourself.

114

Somewhere along the line figure out how to just go as hard as you can, but also enjoy it.

115

Try to enjoy it because that changes the whole tone of the experience.

116

And I think that makes you more successful.

117

I really do because I think you have more energy you have more focus

118

and you collect better energy around you from other people

119

They they feel your energy

120

They they they they're inspired by the way you live your life and how you treat people and what you do

121

And how you do things and they want to do a similar thing

122

They want to do something that makes them feel that way and they want other people to feel that way as well

123

And it's got the butterfly effect

124

It just goes through all the people that are around.

125

But the truth is, I'm really in pursuit of greatness.

126

I know people don't usually talk like that, but I want to be one of the greats.

127

I'm inspired by the greats.

128

One day, my time will come.

129

Dreams are something you have to believe in.

130

I almost gave up on mine.

131

To all of you out there, please keep your dreams alive stop trying to control everything

132

and just let go let go stop living your life like you can do it again quit man

133

I'm telling you guys how you gonna knock somebody in the world for actually trying to do something trying since

134

when has it become not cool to try two forms of pain pain

135

136

that changes you that's the pain of a change right there that's a pain of progress the pain

137

that destroys you isn't this it's later in life knowing you could have been more

138

and all that's left is you and the fear and tears of a possibility left that you allow to die

139

140

the world are the ones who've had the most failures michael jordan was cut from his high school basketball team

165

Today I'm going to change my path.

166

I'm going to get on the path of success.

167

I don't care how long that road is.

168

I'm going to see it through no matter what.

169

Because you know what?

170

I've been living enough years in this hole and I don't want to be here anymore.

171

I'm not happy with this.

172

I'm tired of making excuses.

173

I'm tired of going through the same search of emotion as shit.

174

Set up a schedule and just do the work.

175

You wake up one day you feel this way, you wake up the next day you feel another way

176

and it's just not helpful to base your structure or your goal on how you feel.

177

You stick to what you put there on paper.

178

Every morning, every day of our lives we have choices to make.

179

You have the choice to stay in bed, to say, forget it, I'm not going to work out today,

180

or forget it, I'm not going to work hard today.

181

You always have a choice every single day of your life.

182

So it's a very different video because yesterday I made the choice to get up early and run, but today's another day.

183

Today's another day that I'm faced with another choice to make.

184

So I'm making a choice again to put my shoes on early in the morning and get after it again.

185

So, make the right decision.

186

Why not believe in it?

187

What's the other option?

188

There is no other option.

189

It's a life forgotten, man.

190

In the acting world, if I go to the audition, I have a chance of getting a part.

191

If I don't go to the audition, I'm out of the game.

192

I know the outcome.

193

Nothing.

194

Show up.

195

Even if you get knocked on your ass, show up.

196

At least you have a possibility, you have a chance, you have a voice of doing something with your life.

197

No matter how big your dreams, you're gonna die.

198

Everyone will move on.

199

Do what you want.

200

It sucks to not be liked, but it sucks more to not be yourself.

201

If you just sacrificed this summer, these next three months of your life,

202

you could change the entire trajectory of your entire life.

203

Ease is a greater threat to progress than hardship.

204

You have to let it all go, Neil.

205

Fear, doubt, and disbelief.

206

Free your mind.

207

You see, the underdog story is the realest story there is.

208

Because when you come from nothing, you appreciate everything.

209

You hustle different, you love different, and you lead different.

210

No matter how bad it is going to be.

211

When there is a challenge.

212

And by a challenge I mean anything in life.

213

Any challenge.

214

Anything that you're facing.

215

The only way to overcome the challenges that you face. Is to start walking.

216

Take that step.

217

If you aren't naturally tired at night and excited in the morning, then you probably haven't found something meaningful to work on.

218

You are not stressed from doing too much.

219

You are stressed from doing too little of what you care about.

220

I say be happy with what you got.

221

You be happy.

222

Me are one what's coming to me.

223

What's coming to you?

224

The world, Chico. and everything in it.

225

He said, I want what all other men want.

226

He said, I guarantee you when I line up and they line up, I want what all other men want.

227

I guarantee you when you line up in your one -on -one battles, you want what all other men want.

228

The same way you want the victory, they want the victory.

229

I want what all other men want.

230

He said, but when the pressure hits, when the opposition hits, when the challenge hits, when the pain creeps in, when the uncertainty creeps in,

231

when the cuts, when the scars, when the bruises come.

232

I want what all other men want.

233

He said when the opposition and adversity shows up I just want a little bit more than they wanted.

234

And so that's how I conquer and that's how nobody has ever beaten me yet.

235

I just want one thing from you.

236

As great as you are, as skilled as you are, as talented as you are, I just want one thing from you.

237

Never allow life to make you forget why you do what you do.

238

People don't burn out, people don't quit, people don't underachieve, people don't settle because of what they do.

239

People burn out, people quit, people underachieve, and people settle because life makes them forget why they do it.

240

Stay humble.

241

Never forget where you came from.

242

Stay hungry.

243

Keep that fire in your soul.

244

And stay true.

245

Always be real with yourself and the world.

246

Because the world don't need no more copies.

247

It need originals.

248

And trust me, ain't nobody else who can do what you do like you do.

249

Let him.

250

You're a man.

251

You are a man.

252

Let him.

253

All right?

254

Don't let them.

255

You're a man.

256

You are a man.

257

Stand up and be a man.

258

Make the hard decisions.

259

Make the sacrifices.

260

Make the unpopular decisions.

261

And become comfortable in your own skin.

262

And if you are not a person that you are comfortable being alone with,

263

that is the one person in this universe that you have full power, full right, and full responsibility to change.

264

Okay?

265

I don't have the right, I don't have the desire to,

266

and I do not have the right to try to change my wife's personality and who she is.

267

I don't have the right to change anybody except myself.

268

Now there's people out there I don't like and if I don't like them I just walk away.

269

I'm 55 years old.

270

I've done without that person my whole dang life.

271

I don't need them now.

272

And I don't have the right or the desire to try to change them.

273

But if I don't like me, if I don't like...

274

If you can barely decide to take any action at all

275

and peel your eyes away from your phone for just a moment,

276

it's so much easier to beat everyone else because in a world where it's never been easier to do nothing.

277

Doing something becomes extraordinary.

278

Be the now of what you want to be later.

279

Everyone's like, oh, later in life, I want to do this.

280

Later in life, I want to do that.

281

Later in life is turning around, looking in the mirror right now.

282

That's later in life.

283

Unless that turnaround is something in progression, later in life ain't going to be anything different.

284

I'm comfortable falling short of big goals.

285

And I would rather fall short of a big goal

286

and consider myself a failure than lower the goals to the level

287

which I can accomplish all of them just so I can feel like I'm a success.

288

It's less about the goal setting and it's more about the mindset of being okay being the failure.

289

Because what it does is it frees you to imagine bigger,

290

take risks like you never imagined you could before because failure is not the thing you're afraid of.

291

You got 24 hours in a day.

292

Eight hours you sleep.

293

And most people work at 9 to 5.

294

So eight hours you work.

295

Okay, so we had 16 hours.

296

We got breakfast, lunch, and dinner. So we had 19.

297

Take you an hour to get ready.

298

So we had 20 hours.

299

So you guys cannot spend four hours going to my arm.

300

Hey, Lion.

301

Oh, I like this odor.

302

Oh, they fake it sending photos to other people.

303

Y 'all got to get focused.

304

I'm where I'm at because I'm focused.

305

Some of you just don't understand.

306

Some of you have been average for so damn long.

307

You don't know what it is to do hard work.

308

There's a lot of you out there who want to be much more than average

309

but just don't know how to do it every single day, the grind.

310

You need to find someone to oil those gears up.

311

So check it out.

312

But there's a mother out there who wants what you have who wants the position

313

you are who wants the job you have who wants the wife

314

that you have or the husband there's someone out there hungry

315

and wants everything you have you gotta work your time is gonna happen you're here for a reason um

316

but you gotta be ready because

317

if you're not it's on you you get out of high school you don't know what to do

318

and then you start playing video games

319

and you're on social media a day can slip by like that yeah A day becomes a week, becomes a month, becomes a year,

320

and before you know it, you're 30.

321

Yeah, right.

322

And you haven't done shit.

323

Yeah.

324

And that's really common.

325

One thing that I've discovered is the black sheep of the family always, if they keep getting back up again, turns out to be the goat.

326

Stop taking constructive criticism from people that have never constructed anything that you've walked through.

327

There's no excuse not to be the hardest motherfucker worker in the room.

328

In all your endeavors, schoolwork, the gym, your career, your relationship.

329

Your name's attached to it.

330

It's got to mean more than anything.

331

Lock in.

332

Believe in what you believe in.

333

Nobody else matters.

334

You have to hold yourself accountable.

335

You have to hold yourself to your truth.

336

You have to hold yourself to your beliefs.

337

And always believe in the power of the man above.

338

Because nobody in the history of life has been able to do it by themselves.

339

Amen.

340

Nobody.

341

Hustle, hustle, hustle.

342

Sleep was sin in my household.

343

If it was daylight, you couldn't be inside.

344

Mom would always say, why are you going to watch someone doing something

345

when you can go out in the world and do it yourself?

346

Turn that damn thing off.

347

Get outside.

348

Had to be outside.

349

Get out in the world.

350

Go hustle.

351

Figure it out.

352

Be home at dark.

353

I don't want luck in the equation because I don't need it.

354

You start seeing terms like that.

355

Man, you're someone that believes it.

356

You got confidence.

357

I don't give a shit what the endeavor is.

358

You're gonna find a way to do it.

359

That's the differential right there.

360

That's the confidence that no matter what's in front of you, the never -say -die attitude.

361

When they hit rock bottom, hit the bottom of the barrel, they got nothing left.

362

Everyone's giving up on them.

363

They've lost all their worldly possessions.

364

They're dead broken on their back.

365

It's at that point, guys, when everything's lost, that everything can be gained.

366

There's no more ego there, is there?

367

They let go of, you know, what if I fail?

368

What if it doesn't work?

369

What if I don't like?

370

What if this person rejects me? the animosity, the pressures of society, they let it all go because they've lost it all.

371

They're just now left with the intestinal fortitude, the pride within.

372

Do I want to stay on the bottom of this barrel

373

or do I want to climb the fuck out of this hole?

374

And that is a spark of what it turns out to be their greatest moment, their greatest hour.

375

We can live that way, guys.

376

Imagine the life you can live when you let go of the thought of failure.

377

When the fear doesn't resonate inside of you to paralyze yourself in a self -paralleled state.

378

When that's gone, the freedom.

379

When you judge yourself on your own measure, you're not worried about other people's opinions.

380

Because when you don't worry about anyone else, and you're just worried about what's in here saying, the pride of confidence, funny,

381

all this is taken care of too.

382

With one comes the other in a positive way.

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
