862. Who has the upper hand? Evolution or Erosion?
Hello again! In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into a concept that will challenge your view of personal growth: the constant battle between evolution and erosion. Which one is winning in your life right now?
Evolution and erosion are both at work—every day—but here’s the thing: You get to decide which one has the upper hand.
By the end of this episode, you’ll walk away with clear insights on how to feed evolution and stop erosion in its tracks. I’ll break down:
- How evolution and erosion are constantly shaping your habits, mindset, and progress.
- Why every day is a chance to move the needle forward or slip backward.
- The simple actions that can immediately stop erosion and kickstart your evolution.
- How to reflect on your week and know whether you're feeding growth or decay.
- Why small, consistent efforts can make all the difference—even if you don’t see the results right away.
- How to overcome mental and physical inertia and keep your momentum strong.
- Why success isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress, and you’ve got the power to control it.
If you’re ready to take control of your growth and stop erosion from holding you back, this episode is for you. Let’s jump in!

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.269
All right.
00:00:00.269 --> 00:00:00.868
3, 2, 1.
00:00:00.868 --> 00:00:01.318
Let's get it.
00:00:01.348 --> 00:00:02.939
Welcome back to the show.
00:00:02.939 --> 00:00:05.399
And today we're going to dive into a concept.
00:00:06.089 --> 00:00:10.228
It really hits home to anyone who's looking to push past their limits.
00:00:11.038 --> 00:00:13.858
And move past obstacles.
00:00:14.369 --> 00:00:17.548
And that's the constant battle between evolution.
00:00:18.149 --> 00:00:19.079
And erosion.
00:00:20.100 --> 00:00:21.658
Uh, titled this episode.
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:23.908
Who's got the upper hand.
00:00:25.228 --> 00:00:27.480
Who does have the upper hand in your life right now?
00:00:28.618 --> 00:00:31.289
Deepak Chopra wrote evolution.
00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:33.000
And erosion.
00:00:33.420 --> 00:00:35.250
Are happening simultaneously.
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:37.289
Now think about that for a second.
00:00:37.770 --> 00:00:38.549
Evolution.
00:00:39.179 --> 00:00:40.229
And erosion.
00:00:40.829 --> 00:00:42.450
Are always working.
00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:44.009
At the same time.
00:00:44.909 --> 00:00:46.649
When evolution has the upper hand.
00:00:47.609 --> 00:00:49.198
Things initially erode away.
00:00:49.889 --> 00:00:50.848
And here's the kicker.
00:00:51.509 --> 00:00:54.448
Time works in your favor when that happens.
00:00:55.139 --> 00:00:56.159
The bad stuff.
00:00:56.729 --> 00:00:59.249
The habits, the tendencies.
00:00:59.548 --> 00:01:00.988
The limiting beliefs.
00:01:01.988 --> 00:01:03.250
All of those things.
00:01:03.670 --> 00:01:04.599
Start to fade.
00:01:05.539 --> 00:01:09.379
But if you're saying things like I'm getting old.
00:01:09.679 --> 00:01:11.000
My body's breaking down.
00:01:11.329 --> 00:01:14.329
Technology is passing me by I'm broke.
00:01:15.299 --> 00:01:17.129
Then erosion has the upper hand.
00:01:18.069 --> 00:01:19.239
That's the hand you're feeding.
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:22.329
And what happens when you feed erosion?
00:01:23.590 --> 00:01:24.670
It gets even worse.
00:01:25.829 --> 00:01:28.030
Things start to break down even more.
00:01:28.420 --> 00:01:29.230
Your body.
00:01:29.590 --> 00:01:30.670
Your mindset.
00:01:31.090 --> 00:01:32.530
And your opportunities.
00:01:32.890 --> 00:01:33.459
Poof.
00:01:34.510 --> 00:01:35.890
They all began to decay.
00:01:36.950 --> 00:01:41.750
Evolution and erosion are not an either or situation.
00:01:42.590 --> 00:01:43.489
It's a both hand.
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:46.849
They're always there, but it's up to you.
00:01:47.900 --> 00:01:49.670
Which one that you're going to give power to.
00:01:50.689 --> 00:01:52.549
Time is either your greatest ally.
00:01:53.060 --> 00:01:54.289
Or your worst enemy.
00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:56.359
Depending on which side.
00:01:56.900 --> 00:01:59.060
Evolution or erosion.
00:02:00.109 --> 00:02:01.129
Has the upper hand.
00:02:02.390 --> 00:02:04.549
So, how do you make sure that evolution wins?
00:02:05.150 --> 00:02:06.349
If you're evolving.
00:02:07.310 --> 00:02:09.469
You're doing the work every single day.
00:02:09.860 --> 00:02:13.550
Doing things that move the needle, you're embracing discomfort.
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:16.669
You're sticking to a process and here's, what's key.
00:02:16.669 --> 00:02:18.919
It's not about doing a million things at once.
00:02:19.340 --> 00:02:25.009
It's about doing a handful of things consistently that align with the person that you want to become.
00:02:25.799 --> 00:02:27.539
Whether it's getting in better shape.
00:02:28.139 --> 00:02:29.759
Mastering your craft.
00:02:30.239 --> 00:02:31.439
Eating for energy.
00:02:32.219 --> 00:02:35.280
Nurturing your relationships, managing your finances.
00:02:35.579 --> 00:02:38.489
It's all those little consistent actions.
00:02:39.030 --> 00:02:40.739
That push you toward evolution.
00:02:41.099 --> 00:02:42.780
And as you do this.
00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:46.500
Your old tendencies, the ones that hold you back.
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:48.900
Those things start to erode.
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:53.909
The habits that used to cope those behaviors that don't serve you anymore.
00:02:54.389 --> 00:02:56.400
All of those things began to fade away.
00:02:56.669 --> 00:02:59.189
And as you do something powerful happens.
00:02:59.490 --> 00:03:01.340
You stop living by the shoulds.
00:03:01.530 --> 00:03:02.409
You know what the shoulds.
00:03:02.430 --> 00:03:02.819
Are.
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:07.770
I should work I should eat better as you hang out with better people.
00:03:08.430 --> 00:03:09.270
Instead.
00:03:10.219 --> 00:03:11.479
You no longer should.
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:12.889
You just do it.
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:20.360
Evolution takes over and erosion the decay that happens when the outside world keeps moving, but you don't.
00:03:21.650 --> 00:03:23.360
Bro that loses its grip on you.
00:03:24.370 --> 00:03:25.180
It's crazy, man.
00:03:25.180 --> 00:03:28.030
At first, the line between evolution and erosion.
00:03:28.689 --> 00:03:29.710
Is blurry.
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:34.889
You might not even notice which one is gaining the upper hand in your life, but the truth is.
00:03:35.189 --> 00:03:43.259
Every single day, whatever you feed evolution or erosion decides whether you're moving forward.
00:03:44.169 --> 00:03:45.300
or falling behind.
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:47.659
Now here's the beautiful thing.
00:03:48.889 --> 00:03:50.180
Erosion stops.
00:03:50.180 --> 00:03:52.099
The moment you decide to take action.
00:03:52.650 --> 00:03:55.050
Change starts immediately.
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:57.310
You're not going to see the results immediately.
00:03:58.180 --> 00:03:59.800
But change starts immediately.
00:04:00.539 --> 00:04:06.599
The results take time, but the moment you decide to act and you put that evolution in the driver's seat.
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:08.490
Sure there's going to be some mental.
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.069
Uh, physical inertia that you need to overcome.
00:04:11.370 --> 00:04:12.870
You didn't get here overnight.
00:04:13.379 --> 00:04:15.180
You're not going to get out of it overnight.
00:04:16.089 --> 00:04:17.259
But you will over time.
00:04:18.129 --> 00:04:20.319
If you stop feeding the negative mindset.
00:04:20.860 --> 00:04:24.339
And focused on just a few things that you can do every single day.
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:26.379
That moved the needle.
00:04:26.769 --> 00:04:28.060
That made progress.
00:04:28.569 --> 00:04:30.100
Even if it's an inch.
00:04:30.850 --> 00:04:31.689
You still win.
00:04:32.540 --> 00:04:33.589
What's key is.
00:04:34.220 --> 00:04:36.319
They can't give any of your progress back.
00:04:36.379 --> 00:04:37.339
Don't do that.
00:04:38.509 --> 00:04:40.189
Don't have celebration days.
00:04:40.370 --> 00:04:42.800
No, let ups know, treating yourself.
00:04:42.860 --> 00:04:44.839
Do that's going to derail your momentum.
00:04:45.740 --> 00:04:50.449
Remember the voice of condemnation lasts a lot longer than the voice of comfort.
00:04:51.050 --> 00:04:54.350
So that thing tries to whisper to you that you've worked hard.
00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:57.050
Go ahead and give in just this once.
00:04:57.100 --> 00:04:58.660
Just this once isn't a moment.
00:04:58.660 --> 00:04:59.649
It's a mindset.
00:05:00.490 --> 00:05:01.480
And when you do.
00:05:02.379 --> 00:05:04.420
You you cave to the crave.
00:05:04.930 --> 00:05:05.740
You fold.
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:07.779
You celebrate.
00:05:08.500 --> 00:05:11.769
It seems comfortable for about five seconds.
00:05:12.670 --> 00:05:15.370
And then condemnation kicks in for five days.
00:05:16.660 --> 00:05:20.259
You may not see it right away, but trust me over time.
00:05:21.220 --> 00:05:22.810
Evolution will work for you.
00:05:23.230 --> 00:05:24.459
The change will come.
00:05:24.889 --> 00:05:26.240
Eventually and ultimately.
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.310
is the timeline we're on.
00:05:29.449 --> 00:05:32.300
Everything that you've been working on will show good or bad.
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:40.670
And if you keep feeding evolution, You're going to succeed, but if you keep feeding erosion, That's going to lead to destruction.
00:05:41.269 --> 00:05:42.709
It's a slow process.
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:44.870
Yeah, but you ain't cheating it.
00:05:45.379 --> 00:05:46.069
It's happening.
00:05:46.850 --> 00:05:47.600
Either way.
00:05:48.470 --> 00:05:52.670
The results will reveal themselves good or bad.
00:05:53.569 --> 00:05:57.110
Now if you're frustrated because you're not seeing any progress.
00:05:58.158 --> 00:06:02.959
Or maybe really, if you're honest with yourself, you've seen that you're getting a little bit soft.
00:06:03.829 --> 00:06:05.959
I just want you to stop and reflect.
00:06:06.949 --> 00:06:09.499
Just on last week, not thought totality.
00:06:09.769 --> 00:06:11.329
Don't look at the whole mud.
00:06:11.389 --> 00:06:12.408
Don't look at the whole year.
00:06:12.408 --> 00:06:14.059
Just, just go back a week.
00:06:15.048 --> 00:06:19.999
Because what you did last week is probably what you did the week before and the month before.
00:06:20.358 --> 00:06:22.608
And the month before and the quarters.
00:06:23.538 --> 00:06:24.678
So just go back a week.
00:06:25.699 --> 00:06:27.408
What did last week look like for you?
00:06:28.829 --> 00:06:30.358
Was it a week of evolution.
00:06:31.309 --> 00:06:32.718
Be honest with yourself, man.
00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:35.928
This is if we're confrontation is so key, confront it.
00:06:36.978 --> 00:06:38.389
What did I do last week?
00:06:39.529 --> 00:06:40.608
Did I evolve?
00:06:41.119 --> 00:06:41.809
Honestly.
00:06:42.749 --> 00:06:43.168
R.
00:06:43.168 --> 00:06:44.728
Was there a week of evolution.
00:06:45.358 --> 00:06:46.528
Kind of had a pity party.
00:06:47.009 --> 00:06:48.149
Thanks for going good.
00:06:48.149 --> 00:06:49.930
So I just kinda said F it.
00:06:51.228 --> 00:06:52.759
If erosion had the upper hand.
00:06:53.538 --> 00:06:54.168
Just stop.
00:06:54.168 --> 00:06:56.269
Now plant your foot in the ground.
00:06:57.019 --> 00:06:59.149
And start making productive moves.
00:06:59.809 --> 00:07:01.098
Just take action forward.
00:07:01.428 --> 00:07:03.079
Don't worry about the immediate results.
00:07:03.108 --> 00:07:04.519
The results will come.
00:07:04.579 --> 00:07:06.348
You've seen that time and time again.
00:07:07.488 --> 00:07:11.928
And if you've been feeding the evolution, but you're just not getting the progress.
00:07:12.559 --> 00:07:13.668
Change takes time.
00:07:13.788 --> 00:07:14.028
Good.
00:07:14.028 --> 00:07:16.129
Our bad change takes time.
00:07:16.548 --> 00:07:17.418
Eventually.
00:07:18.468 --> 00:07:19.548
Nothing's wasted.
00:07:20.418 --> 00:07:24.048
All that effort that you're putting in there is getting stored.
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:25.939
And it's going to reach this tipping point.
00:07:26.478 --> 00:07:28.668
That inertia is going to finally break.
00:07:29.238 --> 00:07:30.319
And ultimately.
00:07:31.129 --> 00:07:32.899
Everything that you've been putting in.
00:07:33.798 --> 00:07:35.538
You'll start to see the success.
00:07:35.689 --> 00:07:40.819
See the success that you have right now is not a result of what you've done right now.
00:07:41.298 --> 00:07:42.528
It's a result.
00:07:43.098 --> 00:07:46.278
Of what you've done for weeks and weeks before that.
00:07:47.329 --> 00:07:48.769
Same thing with destruction.
00:07:49.798 --> 00:07:51.718
The results that you see right now.
00:07:52.869 --> 00:07:54.538
weren't because of last night.
00:07:55.499 --> 00:07:57.988
There are a result of many nights before.
00:07:59.098 --> 00:08:00.778
That have led to where you are today.
00:08:02.119 --> 00:08:05.389
Erosion and evolution are working at the same time.
00:08:06.499 --> 00:08:07.759
Feed evolution.
00:08:08.658 --> 00:08:09.649
And the erosion.
00:08:10.158 --> 00:08:11.059
Will fade away.
00:08:11.718 --> 00:08:14.088
Just keep iterating, keep evolving.
00:08:15.038 --> 00:08:16.538
There's a great line from toll story.
00:08:16.538 --> 00:08:17.319
That'll love.
00:08:18.298 --> 00:08:18.899
He wrote.
00:08:19.769 --> 00:08:22.499
You may not know what to do in a specific moment.
00:08:23.278 --> 00:08:25.829
But you know exactly what you should not do.
00:08:26.579 --> 00:08:28.918
And if you avoid what you should not do.
00:08:29.939 --> 00:08:32.609
You'll automatically start doing what you should do.
00:08:33.119 --> 00:08:34.438
And those right actions.
00:08:35.009 --> 00:08:36.359
Lead to a good life.

And in the bottom, right.
00:09:02.698 --> 00:09:05.879
Is a mic from you to me, let me know what's happening in your world.
00:09:06.298 --> 00:09:09.658
And how it can help, um, no hair, but I'm all ears.
00:09:09.869 --> 00:09:10.379
All right.
00:09:11.038 --> 00:09:11.879
Keep it simple.
00:09:11.908 --> 00:09:12.778
Keep it moving.
00:09:12.808 --> 00:09:13.589
Never settle.
00:09:13.589 --> 00:09:14.708
Stay tough peace.
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.269
All right.
00:00:00.269 --> 00:00:00.868
3, 2, 1.
00:00:00.868 --> 00:00:01.318
Let's get it.
00:00:01.348 --> 00:00:02.939
Welcome back to the show.
00:00:02.939 --> 00:00:05.399
And today we're going to dive into a concept.
00:00:06.089 --> 00:00:10.228
It really hits home to anyone who's looking to push past their limits.
00:00:11.038 --> 00:00:13.858
And move past obstacles.
00:00:14.369 --> 00:00:17.548
And that's the constant battle between evolution.
00:00:18.149 --> 00:00:19.079
And erosion.
00:00:20.100 --> 00:00:21.658
Uh, titled this episode.
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:23.908
Who's got the upper hand.
00:00:25.228 --> 00:00:27.480
Who does have the upper hand in your life right now?
00:00:28.618 --> 00:00:31.289
Deepak Chopra wrote evolution.
00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:33.000
And erosion.
00:00:33.420 --> 00:00:35.250
Are happening simultaneously.
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:37.289
Now think about that for a second.
00:00:37.770 --> 00:00:38.549
Evolution.
00:00:39.179 --> 00:00:40.229
And erosion.
00:00:40.829 --> 00:00:42.450
Are always working.
00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:44.009
At the same time.
00:00:44.909 --> 00:00:46.649
When evolution has the upper hand.
00:00:47.609 --> 00:00:49.198
Things initially erode away.
00:00:49.889 --> 00:00:50.848
And here's the kicker.
00:00:51.509 --> 00:00:54.448
Time works in your favor when that happens.
00:00:55.139 --> 00:00:56.159
The bad stuff.
00:00:56.729 --> 00:00:59.249
The habits, the tendencies.
00:00:59.548 --> 00:01:00.988
The limiting beliefs.
00:01:01.988 --> 00:01:03.250
All of those things.
00:01:03.670 --> 00:01:04.599
Start to fade.
00:01:05.539 --> 00:01:09.379
But if you're saying things like I'm getting old.
00:01:09.679 --> 00:01:11.000
My body's breaking down.
00:01:11.329 --> 00:01:14.329
Technology is passing me by I'm broke.
00:01:15.299 --> 00:01:17.129
Then erosion has the upper hand.
00:01:18.069 --> 00:01:19.239
That's the hand you're feeding.
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:22.329
And what happens when you feed erosion?
00:01:23.590 --> 00:01:24.670
It gets even worse.
00:01:25.829 --> 00:01:28.030
Things start to break down even more.
00:01:28.420 --> 00:01:29.230
Your body.
00:01:29.590 --> 00:01:30.670
Your mindset.
00:01:31.090 --> 00:01:32.530
And your opportunities.
00:01:32.890 --> 00:01:33.459
Poof.
00:01:34.510 --> 00:01:35.890
They all began to decay.
00:01:36.950 --> 00:01:41.750
Evolution and erosion are not an either or situation.
00:01:42.590 --> 00:01:43.489
It's a both hand.
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:46.849
They're always there, but it's up to you.
00:01:47.900 --> 00:01:49.670
Which one that you're going to give power to.
00:01:50.689 --> 00:01:52.549
Time is either your greatest ally.
00:01:53.060 --> 00:01:54.289
Or your worst enemy.
00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:56.359
Depending on which side.
00:01:56.900 --> 00:01:59.060
Evolution or erosion.
00:02:00.109 --> 00:02:01.129
Has the upper hand.
00:02:02.390 --> 00:02:04.549
So, how do you make sure that evolution wins?
00:02:05.150 --> 00:02:06.349
If you're evolving.
00:02:07.310 --> 00:02:09.469
You're doing the work every single day.
00:02:09.860 --> 00:02:13.550
Doing things that move the needle, you're embracing discomfort.
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:16.669
You're sticking to a process and here's, what's key.
00:02:16.669 --> 00:02:18.919
It's not about doing a million things at once.
00:02:19.340 --> 00:02:25.009
It's about doing a handful of things consistently that align with the person that you want to become.
00:02:25.799 --> 00:02:27.539
Whether it's getting in better shape.
00:02:28.139 --> 00:02:29.759
Mastering your craft.
00:02:30.239 --> 00:02:31.439
Eating for energy.
00:02:32.219 --> 00:02:35.280
Nurturing your relationships, managing your finances.
00:02:35.579 --> 00:02:38.489
It's all those little consistent actions.
00:02:39.030 --> 00:02:40.739
That push you toward evolution.
00:02:41.099 --> 00:02:42.780
And as you do this.
00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:46.500
Your old tendencies, the ones that hold you back.
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:48.900
Those things start to erode.
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:53.909
The habits that used to cope those behaviors that don't serve you anymore.
00:02:54.389 --> 00:02:56.400
All of those things began to fade away.
00:02:56.669 --> 00:02:59.189
And as you do something powerful happens.
00:02:59.490 --> 00:03:01.340
You stop living by the shoulds.
00:03:01.530 --> 00:03:02.409
You know what the shoulds.
00:03:02.430 --> 00:03:02.819
Are.
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:07.770
I should work I should eat better as you hang out with better people.
00:03:08.430 --> 00:03:09.270
Instead.
00:03:10.219 --> 00:03:11.479
You no longer should.
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:12.889
You just do it.
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:20.360
Evolution takes over and erosion the decay that happens when the outside world keeps moving, but you don't.
00:03:21.650 --> 00:03:23.360
Bro that loses its grip on you.
00:03:24.370 --> 00:03:25.180
It's crazy, man.
00:03:25.180 --> 00:03:28.030
At first, the line between evolution and erosion.
00:03:28.689 --> 00:03:29.710
Is blurry.
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:34.889
You might not even notice which one is gaining the upper hand in your life, but the truth is.
00:03:35.189 --> 00:03:43.259
Every single day, whatever you feed evolution or erosion decides whether you're moving forward.
00:03:44.169 --> 00:03:45.300
or falling behind.
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:47.659
Now here's the beautiful thing.
00:03:48.889 --> 00:03:50.180
Erosion stops.
00:03:50.180 --> 00:03:52.099
The moment you decide to take action.
00:03:52.650 --> 00:03:55.050
Change starts immediately.
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:57.310
You're not going to see the results immediately.
00:03:58.180 --> 00:03:59.800
But change starts immediately.
00:04:00.539 --> 00:04:06.599
The results take time, but the moment you decide to act and you put that evolution in the driver's seat.
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:08.490
Sure there's going to be some mental.
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.069
Uh, physical inertia that you need to overcome.
00:04:11.370 --> 00:04:12.870
You didn't get here overnight.
00:04:13.379 --> 00:04:15.180
You're not going to get out of it overnight.
00:04:16.089 --> 00:04:17.259
But you will over time.
00:04:18.129 --> 00:04:20.319
If you stop feeding the negative mindset.
00:04:20.860 --> 00:04:24.339
And focused on just a few things that you can do every single day.
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:26.379
That moved the needle.
00:04:26.769 --> 00:04:28.060
That made progress.
00:04:28.569 --> 00:04:30.100
Even if it's an inch.
00:04:30.850 --> 00:04:31.689
You still win.
00:04:32.540 --> 00:04:33.589
What's key is.
00:04:34.220 --> 00:04:36.319
They can't give any of your progress back.
00:04:36.379 --> 00:04:37.339
Don't do that.
00:04:38.509 --> 00:04:40.189
Don't have celebration days.
00:04:40.370 --> 00:04:42.800
No, let ups know, treating yourself.
00:04:42.860 --> 00:04:44.839
Do that's going to derail your momentum.
00:04:45.740 --> 00:04:50.449
Remember the voice of condemnation lasts a lot longer than the voice of comfort.
00:04:51.050 --> 00:04:54.350
So that thing tries to whisper to you that you've worked hard.
00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:57.050
Go ahead and give in just this once.
00:04:57.100 --> 00:04:58.660
Just this once isn't a moment.
00:04:58.660 --> 00:04:59.649
It's a mindset.
00:05:00.490 --> 00:05:01.480
And when you do.
00:05:02.379 --> 00:05:04.420
You you cave to the crave.
00:05:04.930 --> 00:05:05.740
You fold.
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:07.779
You celebrate.
00:05:08.500 --> 00:05:11.769
It seems comfortable for about five seconds.
00:05:12.670 --> 00:05:15.370
And then condemnation kicks in for five days.
00:05:16.660 --> 00:05:20.259
You may not see it right away, but trust me over time.
00:05:21.220 --> 00:05:22.810
Evolution will work for you.
00:05:23.230 --> 00:05:24.459
The change will come.
00:05:24.889 --> 00:05:26.240
Eventually and ultimately.
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.310
is the timeline we're on.
00:05:29.449 --> 00:05:32.300
Everything that you've been working on will show good or bad.
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:40.670
And if you keep feeding evolution, You're going to succeed, but if you keep feeding erosion, That's going to lead to destruction.
00:05:41.269 --> 00:05:42.709
It's a slow process.
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:44.870
Yeah, but you ain't cheating it.
00:05:45.379 --> 00:05:46.069
It's happening.
00:05:46.850 --> 00:05:47.600
Either way.
00:05:48.470 --> 00:05:52.670
The results will reveal themselves good or bad.
00:05:53.569 --> 00:05:57.110
Now if you're frustrated because you're not seeing any progress.
00:05:58.158 --> 00:06:02.959
Or maybe really, if you're honest with yourself, you've seen that you're getting a little bit soft.
00:06:03.829 --> 00:06:05.959
I just want you to stop and reflect.
00:06:06.949 --> 00:06:09.499
Just on last week, not thought totality.
00:06:09.769 --> 00:06:11.329
Don't look at the whole mud.
00:06:11.389 --> 00:06:12.408
Don't look at the whole year.
00:06:12.408 --> 00:06:14.059
Just, just go back a week.
00:06:15.048 --> 00:06:19.999
Because what you did last week is probably what you did the week before and the month before.
00:06:20.358 --> 00:06:22.608
And the month before and the quarters.
00:06:23.538 --> 00:06:24.678
So just go back a week.
00:06:25.699 --> 00:06:27.408
What did last week look like for you?
00:06:28.829 --> 00:06:30.358
Was it a week of evolution.
00:06:31.309 --> 00:06:32.718
Be honest with yourself, man.
00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:35.928
This is if we're confrontation is so key, confront it.
00:06:36.978 --> 00:06:38.389
What did I do last week?
00:06:39.529 --> 00:06:40.608
Did I evolve?
00:06:41.119 --> 00:06:41.809
Honestly.
00:06:42.749 --> 00:06:43.168
R.
00:06:43.168 --> 00:06:44.728
Was there a week of evolution.
00:06:45.358 --> 00:06:46.528
Kind of had a pity party.
00:06:47.009 --> 00:06:48.149
Thanks for going good.
00:06:48.149 --> 00:06:49.930
So I just kinda said F it.
00:06:51.228 --> 00:06:52.759
If erosion had the upper hand.
00:06:53.538 --> 00:06:54.168
Just stop.
00:06:54.168 --> 00:06:56.269
Now plant your foot in the ground.
00:06:57.019 --> 00:06:59.149
And start making productive moves.
00:06:59.809 --> 00:07:01.098
Just take action forward.
00:07:01.428 --> 00:07:03.079
Don't worry about the immediate results.
00:07:03.108 --> 00:07:04.519
The results will come.
00:07:04.579 --> 00:07:06.348
You've seen that time and time again.
00:07:07.488 --> 00:07:11.928
And if you've been feeding the evolution, but you're just not getting the progress.
00:07:12.559 --> 00:07:13.668
Change takes time.
00:07:13.788 --> 00:07:14.028
Good.
00:07:14.028 --> 00:07:16.129
Our bad change takes time.
00:07:16.548 --> 00:07:17.418
Eventually.
00:07:18.468 --> 00:07:19.548
Nothing's wasted.
00:07:20.418 --> 00:07:24.048
All that effort that you're putting in there is getting stored.
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:25.939
And it's going to reach this tipping point.
00:07:26.478 --> 00:07:28.668
That inertia is going to finally break.
00:07:29.238 --> 00:07:30.319
And ultimately.
00:07:31.129 --> 00:07:32.899
Everything that you've been putting in.
00:07:33.798 --> 00:07:35.538
You'll start to see the success.
00:07:35.689 --> 00:07:40.819
See the success that you have right now is not a result of what you've done right now.
00:07:41.298 --> 00:07:42.528
It's a result.
00:07:43.098 --> 00:07:46.278
Of what you've done for weeks and weeks before that.
00:07:47.329 --> 00:07:48.769
Same thing with destruction.
00:07:49.798 --> 00:07:51.718
The results that you see right now.
00:07:52.869 --> 00:07:54.538
weren't because of last night.
00:07:55.499 --> 00:07:57.988
There are a result of many nights before.
00:07:59.098 --> 00:08:00.778
That have led to where you are today.
00:08:02.119 --> 00:08:05.389
Erosion and evolution are working at the same time.
00:08:06.499 --> 00:08:07.759
Feed evolution.
00:08:08.658 --> 00:08:09.649
And the erosion.
00:08:10.158 --> 00:08:11.059
Will fade away.
00:08:11.718 --> 00:08:14.088
Just keep iterating, keep evolving.
00:08:15.038 --> 00:08:16.538
There's a great line from toll story.
00:08:16.538 --> 00:08:17.319
That'll love.
00:08:18.298 --> 00:08:18.899
He wrote.
