00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:22.838
Of Deon Sanders book.
00:00:23.528 --> 00:00:27.489
Elevate and dominate 21 ways to win on and off the field.
00:00:28.669 --> 00:00:30.978
I want to focus on a powerful concept.
00:00:31.489 --> 00:00:33.319
And I picked up from chapter 18.
00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:36.368
Coach prime starts off with a compelling call to action.
00:00:37.509 --> 00:00:39.639
He writes, do you want to be successful?
00:00:40.329 --> 00:00:43.149
Then you better be consistent no matter who you are.
00:00:44.198 --> 00:00:47.289
The ability to bring your very best every single day.
00:00:47.918 --> 00:00:49.569
will define your success.
00:00:50.198 --> 00:00:52.209
You can't fake your way to consistency.
00:00:53.168 --> 00:00:58.238
He insists your consistency is the best measure over time.
00:00:58.749 --> 00:00:59.618
And trust me.
00:01:00.338 --> 00:01:02.378
Time is a wonderful storyteller.
00:01:03.429 --> 00:01:07.179
He goes on to say that every day has a different name.
00:01:07.899 --> 00:01:08.828
Every month.
00:01:09.099 --> 00:01:09.998
Has a different name.
00:01:11.289 --> 00:01:12.728
And the real challenge.
00:01:13.569 --> 00:01:15.429
Is how do you remain consistent?
00:01:16.418 --> 00:01:18.429
In a world full of inconsistencies.
00:01:19.528 --> 00:01:21.118
Just sit back and think about that.
00:01:22.049 --> 00:01:23.489
How can I be more consistent?
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:24.149
Probably.
00:01:24.838 --> 00:01:27.149
101 out of a hundred of us on here.
00:01:27.629 --> 00:01:29.039
Are saying that right there.
00:01:29.308 --> 00:01:30.239
God dog, man.
00:01:30.269 --> 00:01:31.709
I wish I would be more consistent.
00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:32.759
How can it be that.
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:35.459
When you define who you are.
00:01:36.088 --> 00:01:37.078
What you do.
00:01:37.349 --> 00:01:38.578
And where you are going.
00:01:39.789 --> 00:01:41.379
You put no timeframe on it.
00:01:41.739 --> 00:01:43.748
You just worked those three things.
00:01:43.989 --> 00:01:45.278
You just work.
00:01:45.549 --> 00:01:50.588
In living those answers every single day, you'll be a man of consistency.
00:01:51.088 --> 00:01:52.468
And you're guaranteed success.
00:01:52.709 --> 00:01:53.728
How freeing is that?
00:01:54.698 --> 00:01:57.578
How much extra bullshit do we add to our days?
00:01:58.118 --> 00:01:59.739
And pressures to our life.
00:02:00.608 --> 00:02:03.819
Because we're simply not answering those three things.
00:02:03.819 --> 00:02:05.888
We're just like swinging in the dark.
00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:09.489
Trying to do it the best we can hanging in there.
00:02:10.058 --> 00:02:10.838
Who are you?
00:02:11.229 --> 00:02:12.038
What do you do?
00:02:12.399 --> 00:02:13.269
Where are you going?
00:02:13.778 --> 00:02:15.278
Answer those three questions.
00:02:15.709 --> 00:02:16.908
And live them every day.
00:02:17.438 --> 00:02:18.128
You're good to go.
00:02:19.028 --> 00:02:20.949
This is about being a person of faith.
00:02:21.549 --> 00:02:25.929
Of authenticity of strength of resilience of surety.
00:02:27.049 --> 00:02:29.149
Imagine how freeing it will be for you.
00:02:30.079 --> 00:02:33.679
If you're the kind of person whose behavior and processes.
00:02:33.979 --> 00:02:35.718
Or consistently aligned.
00:02:36.468 --> 00:02:37.489
To achieve your goals.
00:02:38.408 --> 00:02:40.989
And this brings me to a very important point.
00:02:42.088 --> 00:02:43.169
About timing.
00:02:44.008 --> 00:02:44.968
And time in.
00:02:45.968 --> 00:02:48.519
Time in is what you do consistently.
00:02:48.818 --> 00:02:49.868
No matter what.
00:02:50.658 --> 00:02:53.179
Blue skies, dark clouds.
00:02:53.778 --> 00:02:55.429
Terrible storms in your life.
00:02:56.459 --> 00:02:57.598
There will be adversity.
00:02:58.258 --> 00:02:59.459
There will be uncertainty.
00:02:59.998 --> 00:03:05.399
And there will be times where you want to drop the reins and revert back to your old ways.
00:03:06.838 --> 00:03:07.588
But you can't do it.
00:03:08.729 --> 00:03:10.618
Because you're now committed.
00:03:11.609 --> 00:03:14.128
To being a man of consistency.
00:03:15.179 --> 00:03:17.188
Because you can't fake consistency.
00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:20.068
See when you wake up every single day at a set time.
00:03:20.938 --> 00:03:22.618
And you're adding to yesterday.
00:03:22.859 --> 00:03:26.558
And you're not recovering from regrets, lapses, and judgements.
00:03:26.808 --> 00:03:28.288
lacking decisions.
00:03:28.709 --> 00:03:30.209
Loss of determination.
00:03:30.239 --> 00:03:32.378
Got distracted head faked.
00:03:33.088 --> 00:03:34.588
Comparing yourself to others.
00:03:35.688 --> 00:03:42.068
instead of working out of a deficit every day, You work in the pluses, you're just adding to it.
00:03:43.188 --> 00:03:44.838
You can't fake consistency.
00:03:45.688 --> 00:03:47.998
Time will reveal all.
00:03:48.899 --> 00:03:50.158
What you've done in the dark.
00:03:50.929 --> 00:03:51.838
will come to light.
00:03:52.748 --> 00:03:58.359
And when it comes to light, Will it reveal results or regrets.
00:03:59.258 --> 00:04:01.088
So what I want you to do right now?
00:04:01.808 --> 00:04:05.169
Is embrace being a person of consistency.
00:04:05.769 --> 00:04:06.459
It's simple.
00:04:06.579 --> 00:04:07.419
It's not easy.
00:04:08.028 --> 00:04:09.288
But it's definitely simple.
00:04:10.318 --> 00:04:14.338
Now there's going to be some mental and physical inertia that you got to overcome.
00:04:14.818 --> 00:04:16.408
Your mind's going to fuck with you a little bit.
00:04:17.309 --> 00:04:19.139
Your muscles are gonna fuck with you a little bit.
00:04:19.619 --> 00:04:21.509
The world is going to fuck with you a little bit.
00:04:21.569 --> 00:04:22.798
It's going to push against you.
00:04:23.158 --> 00:04:25.468
Your friends are going to try to Jack you up.
00:04:26.168 --> 00:04:27.519
And knock you off track.
00:04:27.579 --> 00:04:29.108
You don't have to explain anything.
00:04:29.809 --> 00:04:31.069
You just gotta be committed.
00:04:31.908 --> 00:04:33.019
To being consistent.
00:04:33.379 --> 00:04:34.879
So the first thing I want you to do.
00:04:35.928 --> 00:04:37.129
I want you to define.
00:04:38.358 --> 00:04:39.079
Who you are.
00:04:39.528 --> 00:04:40.369
You ever thought about that?
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:42.228
Who are you not, who you've been.
00:04:43.428 --> 00:04:44.718
But who are you?
00:04:45.499 --> 00:04:46.459
Who do you want to be?
00:04:47.119 --> 00:04:47.899
Just define it.
00:04:48.668 --> 00:04:50.348
No extra narrative to it.
00:04:50.379 --> 00:04:54.249
No, but, uh, Well, if only I know.
00:04:54.908 --> 00:04:55.629
Who are you?
00:04:56.139 --> 00:04:57.038
In this moment.
00:04:57.579 --> 00:04:58.478
Let's just start.
00:04:58.778 --> 00:05:01.298
I'm a man that is now consistent.
00:05:02.348 --> 00:05:03.408
Because I want results.
00:05:03.428 --> 00:05:04.689
I want success in my life.
00:05:04.899 --> 00:05:06.038
Define who you are.
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:09.449
If you don't know quite who you are yet.
00:05:10.168 --> 00:05:11.038
Pick a direction.
00:05:12.158 --> 00:05:13.718
This brings me to my second point.
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:14.918
Where you going?
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:16.899
What's your true north.
00:05:17.528 --> 00:05:20.559
What's the things that bring you the most energy every single day.
00:05:21.218 --> 00:05:22.178
What's the thing.
00:05:22.478 --> 00:05:24.999
That is guaranteed a win telling you.
00:05:24.999 --> 00:05:26.139
I'll give you three of them.
00:05:26.949 --> 00:05:27.459
Four.
00:05:28.209 --> 00:05:29.619
Wake up at a set time.
00:05:30.509 --> 00:05:31.028
write.
00:05:31.658 --> 00:05:32.978
At least one page.
00:05:33.309 --> 00:05:34.028
Empty your mind.
00:05:34.028 --> 00:05:35.139
Clarify your thoughts.
00:05:35.499 --> 00:05:36.218
Read.
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:37.149
Something.
00:05:37.629 --> 00:05:40.269
15 minutes every day, not scroll, read.
00:05:41.629 --> 00:05:43.788
And then get some movement in workout.
00:05:44.718 --> 00:05:45.559
Guaranteed win.
00:05:45.588 --> 00:05:49.579
No matter what happens in the day, you took care of yourself mentally.
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:54.889
Spiritually, physically, financially to you set yourself in position.
00:05:55.098 --> 00:05:56.579
You're setting the sails.
00:05:57.048 --> 00:06:00.209
You're not just waking up reacting to the day.
00:06:01.569 --> 00:06:02.889
You're putting your foot forward.
00:06:02.889 --> 00:06:04.119
You're setting the tone.
00:06:05.269 --> 00:06:06.079
And I'm telling you.
00:06:06.949 --> 00:06:11.238
If you just work as simple process, that's aligned with the person that you want to be.
00:06:12.468 --> 00:06:14.059
You'll get to know yourself.
00:06:15.218 --> 00:06:19.449
And when you know yourself, You'll find yourself.
00:06:19.629 --> 00:06:24.399
And when you find yourself, you'll define yourself and then you'll know who you are.
00:06:24.819 --> 00:06:26.978
Sometimes, man, you got to take actions.
00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:28.809
That are in alignment.
00:06:30.009 --> 00:06:33.639
Get rid of all the other toxic bullshit that's head faking you.
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:34.718
That's pulling you down.
00:06:34.718 --> 00:06:36.728
That's working you in regrets every single day.
00:06:36.728 --> 00:06:37.778
Get rid of that.
00:06:38.819 --> 00:06:40.738
Isolate yourself from those things.
00:06:41.819 --> 00:06:42.598
Just work it.
00:06:43.619 --> 00:06:44.728
You life depends on it.
00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:45.478
Literally.
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:48.649
Your new life depends on it.
00:06:50.088 --> 00:06:51.918
Your actions are going to bring clarity.
00:06:52.459 --> 00:06:53.209
To who you are.
00:06:54.468 --> 00:06:55.999
This is why process is so key.
00:06:57.108 --> 00:06:58.908
And it's embracing the life skills.
00:06:59.988 --> 00:07:01.369
That I talk about all the time here.
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:04.579
Life skills, all start with a letter C there's only five of them.
00:07:06.019 --> 00:07:07.038
Communication.
00:07:07.369 --> 00:07:09.348
You got to communicate with yourself and others.
00:07:09.559 --> 00:07:10.608
Curiosity.
00:07:10.968 --> 00:07:12.709
Ask questions in your day.
00:07:13.129 --> 00:07:16.908
With wonder and awe stop making judgements.
00:07:17.718 --> 00:07:19.338
Too old, too late.
00:07:19.579 --> 00:07:20.418
Can't do it.
00:07:20.778 --> 00:07:22.038
I ain't got money like that.
00:07:23.098 --> 00:07:23.968
Creativity.
00:07:24.749 --> 00:07:28.418
Work with what you have get resourceful when you lack resources.
00:07:28.449 --> 00:07:29.559
Continuous learning.
00:07:30.069 --> 00:07:33.009
It's feeding your mind, feeding your soul every single day.
00:07:34.108 --> 00:07:35.069
And confrontation.
00:07:35.728 --> 00:07:37.108
Productive confrontation.
00:07:37.139 --> 00:07:41.579
You got to confront some shit and yourself, and also you got to set boundaries on others.
00:07:42.059 --> 00:07:44.009
It's not that you boot up and get in their face.
00:07:44.189 --> 00:07:45.149
It's not about that.
00:07:45.749 --> 00:07:50.249
It's about setting the boundaries in your life and things that you won't tolerate, and you're going to confront it right now.
00:07:50.278 --> 00:07:52.019
Number one, you ain't gonna talk to me like that.
00:07:52.408 --> 00:07:54.088
Number two using a handle me like that.
00:07:55.189 --> 00:07:57.709
And some days that person you're talking to is in the mirror.
00:07:58.189 --> 00:07:59.119
And other days.
00:07:59.869 --> 00:08:00.949
It may be your mom.
00:08:01.459 --> 00:08:02.509
It may be your uncle.
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:04.129
Maybe your boss.
00:08:05.389 --> 00:08:07.548
Stand up for yourself because nobody else will.
00:08:08.899 --> 00:08:10.069
These are all essential.
00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:12.889
And when you incorporate these daily habits.
00:08:13.428 --> 00:08:15.079
And begin to define yourself.
00:08:16.189 --> 00:08:17.598
You're going to know where you're going then.
00:08:18.269 --> 00:08:19.158
Dude I get jacked up?
00:08:19.158 --> 00:08:20.598
Just even talking about this.
00:08:20.928 --> 00:08:22.009
We get off track too.
00:08:22.459 --> 00:08:23.869
I get woe is me too.
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:25.639
I'll get all big lip to.
00:08:26.088 --> 00:08:29.778
Uh, I do the same thing.
00:08:30.168 --> 00:08:30.649
It bro.
00:08:30.889 --> 00:08:32.479
I'm like, I'm sharing this message with.
00:08:32.658 --> 00:08:33.649
I'm like jacked up.
00:08:33.649 --> 00:08:34.759
I want to punch something in.
00:08:35.239 --> 00:08:37.999
I want to punch the wall in a good way.
00:08:40.788 --> 00:08:43.908
But I'm just saying, man, dude, this is, this is why I share it.
00:08:44.568 --> 00:08:45.589
I'm not talking to you, man.
00:08:45.589 --> 00:08:48.109
I'm talking to me to not talking to just you.
00:08:48.109 --> 00:08:49.009
I'm talking to me.
00:08:49.009 --> 00:08:51.698
I want to be a man more consistent.
00:08:51.698 --> 00:08:53.229
I want to be efficient.
00:08:53.708 --> 00:08:55.749
I want to squeeze the juice out every single day.
00:08:56.849 --> 00:08:58.048
I want to get shit done.
00:08:58.408 --> 00:08:59.428
I want to make an impact.
00:09:00.269 --> 00:09:01.408
I want to be proud of myself.
00:09:02.538 --> 00:09:03.928
see, now, you know where you're going.
00:09:05.078 --> 00:09:06.759
And this is an all facets of life.
00:09:07.239 --> 00:09:07.899
Personally.
00:09:08.379 --> 00:09:12.609
Professionally relationally, financially, physically, spiritually.
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:14.139
Anything else that ends in L Y.
00:09:15.129 --> 00:09:16.448
Where you want your life to look like?
00:09:17.438 --> 00:09:18.759
Start moving in that direction.
00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:19.418
Remember?
00:09:19.899 --> 00:09:21.759
Direction is more important than speed.
00:09:22.908 --> 00:09:28.129
So when you know who you are, Where you're going and what you do day in and day out.
00:09:28.938 --> 00:09:30.318
These are non-negotiables man.
00:09:30.318 --> 00:09:31.668
These are no matter what.
00:09:32.958 --> 00:09:34.249
You're guaranteed success.
00:09:35.688 --> 00:09:37.068
The timeline is not up to you.
00:09:38.178 --> 00:09:41.089
But what you do to be in position for when it happens.
00:09:42.168 --> 00:09:43.428
Is entirely up to you.
00:09:44.729 --> 00:09:48.808
So just keep it simple in an amazing how complex we make things.
00:09:49.408 --> 00:09:51.149
How confusing we make life.
00:09:52.048 --> 00:09:52.589
I mean.
00:09:53.548 --> 00:09:54.359
We do.
00:09:54.989 --> 00:09:56.068
Just keep it simple.
00:09:56.729 --> 00:10:00.269
I mean, I end every episode with keep it simple, keep it moving.
00:10:00.298 --> 00:10:00.808
Meaning.
00:10:00.839 --> 00:10:02.668
I don't get complex.
00:10:02.668 --> 00:10:04.318
The complexities will sabotage you.
00:10:04.349 --> 00:10:05.158
Keep it simple.
00:10:05.308 --> 00:10:06.208
Keep it moving.
00:10:06.509 --> 00:10:14.249
Meaning when you stumble when you fall, when you backslide, when you skid across the floor, when you get embarrassed.
00:10:15.599 --> 00:10:18.749
When the world abruptly just kicks you in the nuts.
00:10:19.798 --> 00:10:20.458
Keep going.
00:10:21.198 --> 00:10:24.528
You ain't If you can blink, if you could breathe.
00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:26.538
Keep rocking.
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.499
It's going to be beneficial to you in the long run.
00:10:29.528 --> 00:10:30.999
Just don't know how it's going to play out yet.
00:10:31.928 --> 00:10:33.489
So keep things super simple.
00:10:34.719 --> 00:10:38.558
And anything that violates, I will, let me tell you this, anything that violates.
00:10:39.249 --> 00:10:41.739
Who you are now that you've defined it.
00:10:42.129 --> 00:10:43.028
Who you are.
00:10:43.778 --> 00:10:44.798
What you do.
00:10:45.308 --> 00:10:48.099
And where you're going, anything that violates that.
00:10:48.969 --> 00:10:49.839
Not allowed in.
00:10:50.168 --> 00:10:52.028
You don't have to explain it to anybody.
00:10:52.418 --> 00:10:54.038
Oh, let me explain something to you.
00:10:54.278 --> 00:10:58.149
I am now in a process of defined, who I know.
00:10:58.658 --> 00:10:59.528
They don't understand.
00:10:59.528 --> 00:11:01.028
Anyway, nobody understands you.
00:11:01.028 --> 00:11:01.538
Like you.
00:11:02.739 --> 00:11:04.328
You just live the example.
00:11:05.139 --> 00:11:05.979
That's all you do.
00:11:06.038 --> 00:11:07.599
You don't want to explain it to anybody.
00:11:07.599 --> 00:11:08.589
They're going to sabotage you.
00:11:08.589 --> 00:11:09.458
They're going to derail you.
00:11:09.458 --> 00:11:17.558
They're going to pepper some bullshit in your life because people who try to talk you out of your dreams are the very ones who gave up on theirs.
00:11:18.308 --> 00:11:18.999
No.
00:11:19.479 --> 00:11:20.068
No more.
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:21.548
Not going to happen.
00:11:22.568 --> 00:11:24.428
So you just live the example.
00:11:25.749 --> 00:11:27.519
And I've work in, in do.
00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:29.379
This is a working blueprint.
00:11:29.649 --> 00:11:29.889
Okay.
00:11:29.889 --> 00:11:31.688
This is a floating document.
00:11:32.168 --> 00:11:33.639
Meaning, it's not set in stone.
00:11:33.668 --> 00:11:35.798
We're not, it's not the 10 commandments.
00:11:35.889 --> 00:11:39.908
You do have to put something on paper, but it's going to be a working document.
00:11:40.328 --> 00:11:41.798
You're going to have line throughs.
00:11:41.948 --> 00:11:43.269
You have scratch out.
00:11:43.749 --> 00:11:45.038
Five years from now.
00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:47.379
You're going to be a different person.
00:11:47.379 --> 00:11:51.578
So who you are, what you do and where you're going, will change.
00:11:52.119 --> 00:11:54.278
But at least chart the direction.
00:11:55.269 --> 00:11:58.629
And when it does change, it's just going to change for better.
00:11:59.019 --> 00:11:59.708
Period.
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:07.418
So if you do that, And you, you keep your environment sterile, meaning anything that violates this.
00:12:07.808 --> 00:12:08.918
I don't allow in.
00:12:09.889 --> 00:12:11.298
You're guaranteed success.
00:12:12.269 --> 00:12:12.818
Why?.
00:12:13.999 --> 00:12:16.879
Because time is a wonderful storyteller.
00:12:18.198 --> 00:12:20.958
Please share the show with someone else who needs it.
00:12:21.678 --> 00:12:23.599
Listen to it again, if you need it.
00:12:23.688 --> 00:12:24.048
I know.
00:12:24.048 --> 00:12:25.038
I certainly will.
00:12:26.259 --> 00:12:27.698
I thank God for the message.
00:12:28.269 --> 00:12:30.068
That I've been given to share with you today.
00:12:31.058 --> 00:12:32.198
And share with myself.
00:12:32.619 --> 00:12:32.948
All right.
00:12:32.948 --> 00:12:33.639
Let's get out of here.
00:12:33.668 --> 00:12:34.509
Keep it simple.
00:12:34.568 --> 00:12:35.408
Keep it moving.
00:12:35.589 --> 00:12:36.369
Never settle.
00:12:36.369 --> 00:12:37.849
Stay tough peace.
00:00:00.299 --> 00:00:01.348

Of Deon Sanders book.

Elevate and dominate 21 ways to win on and off the field.
00:00:28.669 --> 00:00:30.978
I want to focus on a powerful concept.
00:00:31.489 --> 00:00:33.319
And I picked up from chapter 18.
00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:36.368
Coach prime starts off with a compelling call to action.
00:00:37.509 --> 00:00:39.639
He writes, do you want to be successful?
00:00:40.329 --> 00:00:43.149
Then you better be consistent no matter who you are.
00:00:44.198 --> 00:00:47.289
The ability to bring your very best every single day.
00:00:47.918 --> 00:00:49.569
will define your success.
00:00:50.198 --> 00:00:52.209
You can't fake your way to consistency.
00:00:53.168 --> 00:00:58.238
He insists your consistency is the best measure over time.
00:00:58.749 --> 00:00:59.618
And trust me.
00:01:00.338 --> 00:01:02.378
Time is a wonderful storyteller.
00:01:03.429 --> 00:01:07.179
He goes on to say that every day has a different name.
00:01:07.899 --> 00:01:08.828
Every month.
00:01:09.099 --> 00:01:09.998
Has a different name.
00:01:11.289 --> 00:01:12.728
And the real challenge.
00:01:13.569 --> 00:01:15.429
Is how do you remain consistent?
00:01:16.418 --> 00:01:18.429
In a world full of inconsistencies.
00:01:19.528 --> 00:01:21.118
Just sit back and think about that.
00:01:22.049 --> 00:01:23.489
How can I be more consistent?
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:24.149
Probably.
00:01:24.838 --> 00:01:27.149
101 out of a hundred of us on here.
00:01:27.629 --> 00:01:29.039
Are saying that right there.
00:01:29.308 --> 00:01:30.239
God dog, man.
00:01:30.269 --> 00:01:31.709
I wish I would be more consistent.
00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:32.759
How can it be that.
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:35.459
When you define who you are.
00:01:36.088 --> 00:01:37.078
What you do.
00:01:37.349 --> 00:01:38.578
And where you are going.
00:01:39.789 --> 00:01:41.379
You put no timeframe on it.
00:01:41.739 --> 00:01:43.748
You just worked those three things.
00:01:43.989 --> 00:01:45.278
You just work.
00:01:45.549 --> 00:01:50.588
In living those answers every single day, you'll be a man of consistency.
00:01:51.088 --> 00:01:52.468
And you're guaranteed success.
00:01:52.709 --> 00:01:53.728
How freeing is that?
00:01:54.698 --> 00:01:57.578
How much extra bullshit do we add to our days?
00:01:58.118 --> 00:01:59.739
And pressures to our life.
00:02:00.608 --> 00:02:03.819
Because we're simply not answering those three things.
00:02:03.819 --> 00:02:05.888
We're just like swinging in the dark.
00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:09.489
Trying to do it the best we can hanging in there.
00:02:10.058 --> 00:02:10.838
Who are you?
00:02:11.229 --> 00:02:12.038
What do you do?
00:02:12.399 --> 00:02:13.269
Where are you going?
00:02:13.778 --> 00:02:15.278
Answer those three questions.
00:02:15.709 --> 00:02:16.908
And live them every day.
00:02:17.438 --> 00:02:18.128
You're good to go.
00:02:19.028 --> 00:02:20.949
This is about being a person of faith.
00:02:21.549 --> 00:02:25.929
Of authenticity of strength of resilience of surety.
00:02:27.049 --> 00:02:29.149
Imagine how freeing it will be for you.
00:02:30.079 --> 00:02:33.679
If you're the kind of person whose behavior and processes.
00:02:33.979 --> 00:02:35.718
Or consistently aligned.
00:02:36.468 --> 00:02:37.489
To achieve your goals.
00:02:38.408 --> 00:02:40.989
And this brings me to a very important point.
00:02:42.088 --> 00:02:43.169
About timing.
00:02:44.008 --> 00:02:44.968
And time in.
00:02:45.968 --> 00:02:48.519
Time in is what you do consistently.
00:02:48.818 --> 00:02:49.868
No matter what.
00:02:50.658 --> 00:02:53.179
Blue skies, dark clouds.
00:02:53.778 --> 00:02:55.429
Terrible storms in your life.
00:02:56.459 --> 00:02:57.598
There will be adversity.
00:02:58.258 --> 00:02:59.459
There will be uncertainty.
00:02:59.998 --> 00:03:05.399
And there will be times where you want to drop the reins and revert back to your old ways.
00:03:06.838 --> 00:03:07.588
But you can't do it.
00:03:08.729 --> 00:03:10.618
Because you're now committed.
00:03:11.609 --> 00:03:14.128
To being a man of consistency.
00:03:15.179 --> 00:03:17.188
Because you can't fake consistency.
00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:20.068
See when you wake up every single day at a set time.
00:03:20.938 --> 00:03:22.618
And you're adding to yesterday.
00:03:22.859 --> 00:03:26.558
And you're not recovering from regrets, lapses, and judgements.
00:03:26.808 --> 00:03:28.288
lacking decisions.
00:03:28.709 --> 00:03:30.209
Loss of determination.
00:03:30.239 --> 00:03:32.378
Got distracted head faked.
00:03:33.088 --> 00:03:34.588
Comparing yourself to others.
00:03:35.688 --> 00:03:42.068
instead of working out of a deficit every day, You work in the pluses, you're just adding to it.
00:03:43.188 --> 00:03:44.838
You can't fake consistency.
00:03:45.688 --> 00:03:47.998
Time will reveal all.
00:03:48.899 --> 00:03:50.158
What you've done in the dark.
00:03:50.929 --> 00:03:51.838
will come to light.
00:03:52.748 --> 00:03:58.359
And when it comes to light, Will it reveal results or regrets.
00:03:59.258 --> 00:04:01.088
So what I want you to do right now?
00:04:01.808 --> 00:04:05.169
Is embrace being a person of consistency.
00:04:05.769 --> 00:04:06.459
It's simple.
00:04:06.579 --> 00:04:07.419
It's not easy.
00:04:08.028 --> 00:04:09.288
But it's definitely simple.
00:04:10.318 --> 00:04:14.338
Now there's going to be some mental and physical inertia that you got to overcome.
00:04:14.818 --> 00:04:16.408
Your mind's going to fuck with you a little bit.
00:04:17.309 --> 00:04:19.139
Your muscles are gonna fuck with you a little bit.
00:04:19.619 --> 00:04:21.509
The world is going to fuck with you a little bit.
00:04:21.569 --> 00:04:22.798
It's going to push against you.
00:04:23.158 --> 00:04:25.468
Your friends are going to try to Jack you up.
00:04:26.168 --> 00:04:27.519
And knock you off track.
00:04:27.579 --> 00:04:29.108
You don't have to explain anything.
00:04:29.809 --> 00:04:31.069
You just gotta be committed.
00:04:31.908 --> 00:04:33.019
To being consistent.
00:04:33.379 --> 00:04:34.879
So the first thing I want you to do.
00:04:35.928 --> 00:04:37.129
I want you to define.
00:04:38.358 --> 00:04:39.079
Who you are.
00:04:39.528 --> 00:04:40.369
You ever thought about that?
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:42.228
Who are you not, who you've been.
00:04:43.428 --> 00:04:44.718
But who are you?
00:04:45.499 --> 00:04:46.459
Who do you want to be?
00:04:47.119 --> 00:04:47.899
Just define it.
00:04:48.668 --> 00:04:50.348
No extra narrative to it.
00:04:50.379 --> 00:04:54.249
No, but, uh, Well, if only I know.
00:04:54.908 --> 00:04:55.629
Who are you?
00:04:56.139 --> 00:04:57.038
In this moment.
00:04:57.579 --> 00:04:58.478
Let's just start.
00:04:58.778 --> 00:05:01.298
I'm a man that is now consistent.
00:05:02.348 --> 00:05:03.408
Because I want results.
00:05:03.428 --> 00:05:04.689
I want success in my life.
00:05:04.899 --> 00:05:06.038
Define who you are.
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:09.449
If you don't know quite who you are yet.
00:05:10.168 --> 00:05:11.038
Pick a direction.
00:05:12.158 --> 00:05:13.718
This brings me to my second point.
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:14.918
Where you going?
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:16.899
What's your true north.
00:05:17.528 --> 00:05:20.559
What's the things that bring you the most energy every single day.
00:05:21.218 --> 00:05:22.178
What's the thing.
00:05:22.478 --> 00:05:24.999
That is guaranteed a win telling you.
00:05:24.999 --> 00:05:26.139
I'll give you three of them.
00:05:26.949 --> 00:05:27.459
Four.
00:05:28.209 --> 00:05:29.619
Wake up at a set time.
00:05:30.509 --> 00:05:31.028
write.
00:05:31.658 --> 00:05:32.978
At least one page.
00:05:33.309 --> 00:05:34.028
Empty your mind.
00:05:34.028 --> 00:05:35.139
Clarify your thoughts.
00:05:35.499 --> 00:05:36.218
Read.
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:37.149
Something.
00:05:37.629 --> 00:05:40.269
15 minutes every day, not scroll, read.
00:05:41.629 --> 00:05:43.788
And then get some movement in workout.
00:05:44.718 --> 00:05:45.559
Guaranteed win.
00:05:45.588 --> 00:05:49.579
No matter what happens in the day, you took care of yourself mentally.
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:54.889
Spiritually, physically, financially to you set yourself in position.
00:05:55.098 --> 00:05:56.579
You're setting the sails.
00:05:57.048 --> 00:06:00.209
You're not just waking up reacting to the day.
00:06:01.569 --> 00:06:02.889
You're putting your foot forward.
00:06:02.889 --> 00:06:04.119
You're setting the tone.
00:06:05.269 --> 00:06:06.079
And I'm telling you.
00:06:06.949 --> 00:06:11.238
If you just work as simple process, that's aligned with the person that you want to be.
00:06:12.468 --> 00:06:14.059
You'll get to know yourself.
00:06:15.218 --> 00:06:19.449
And when you know yourself, You'll find yourself.
00:06:19.629 --> 00:06:24.399
And when you find yourself, you'll define yourself and then you'll know who you are.
00:06:24.819 --> 00:06:26.978
Sometimes, man, you got to take actions.
00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:28.809
That are in alignment.
00:06:30.009 --> 00:06:33.639
Get rid of all the other toxic bullshit that's head faking you.
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:34.718
That's pulling you down.
00:06:34.718 --> 00:06:36.728
That's working you in regrets every single day.
00:06:36.728 --> 00:06:37.778
Get rid of that.
00:06:38.819 --> 00:06:40.738
Isolate yourself from those things.
00:06:41.819 --> 00:06:42.598
Just work it.
00:06:43.619 --> 00:06:44.728
You life depends on it.
00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:45.478
Literally.
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:48.649
Your new life depends on it.
00:06:50.088 --> 00:06:51.918
Your actions are going to bring clarity.
00:06:52.459 --> 00:06:53.209
To who you are.
00:06:54.468 --> 00:06:55.999
This is why process is so key.
00:06:57.108 --> 00:06:58.908
And it's embracing the life skills.
00:06:59.988 --> 00:07:01.369
That I talk about all the time here.
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:04.579
Life skills, all start with a letter C there's only five of them.
00:07:06.019 --> 00:07:07.038
Communication.
00:07:07.369 --> 00:07:09.348
You got to communicate with yourself and others.
00:07:09.559 --> 00:07:10.608
Curiosity.
00:07:10.968 --> 00:07:12.709
Ask questions in your day.
00:07:13.129 --> 00:07:16.908
With wonder and awe stop making judgements.
00:07:17.718 --> 00:07:19.338
Too old, too late.
00:07:19.579 --> 00:07:20.418
Can't do it.
00:07:20.778 --> 00:07:22.038
I ain't got money like that.
00:07:23.098 --> 00:07:23.968
Creativity.
00:07:24.749 --> 00:07:28.418
Work with what you have get resourceful when you lack resources.
00:07:28.449 --> 00:07:29.559
Continuous learning.
00:07:30.069 --> 00:07:33.009
It's feeding your mind, feeding your soul every single day.
00:07:34.108 --> 00:07:35.069
And confrontation.
00:07:35.728 --> 00:07:37.108
Productive confrontation.
00:07:37.139 --> 00:07:41.579
You got to confront some shit and yourself, and also you got to set boundaries on others.
00:07:42.059 --> 00:07:44.009
It's not that you boot up and get in their face.
00:07:44.189 --> 00:07:45.149
It's not about that.
00:07:45.749 --> 00:07:50.249
It's about setting the boundaries in your life and things that you won't tolerate, and you're going to confront it right now.
00:07:50.278 --> 00:07:52.019
Number one, you ain't gonna talk to me like that.
00:07:52.408 --> 00:07:54.088
Number two using a handle me like that.
00:07:55.189 --> 00:07:57.709
And some days that person you're talking to is in the mirror.
00:07:58.189 --> 00:07:59.119
And other days.
00:07:59.869 --> 00:08:00.949
It may be your mom.
00:08:01.459 --> 00:08:02.509
It may be your uncle.
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:04.129
Maybe your boss.
00:08:05.389 --> 00:08:07.548
Stand up for yourself because nobody else will.
00:08:08.899 --> 00:08:10.069
These are all essential.
00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:12.889
And when you incorporate these daily habits.
00:08:13.428 --> 00:08:15.079
And begin to define yourself.
00:08:16.189 --> 00:08:17.598
You're going to know where you're going then.
00:08:18.269 --> 00:08:19.158
Dude I get jacked up?
00:08:19.158 --> 00:08:20.598
Just even talking about this.
00:08:20.928 --> 00:08:22.009
We get off track too.
00:08:22.459 --> 00:08:23.869
I get woe is me too.
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:25.639
I'll get all big lip to.
00:08:26.088 --> 00:08:29.778
Uh, I do the same thing.
00:08:30.168 --> 00:08:30.649
It bro.
00:08:30.889 --> 00:08:32.479
I'm like, I'm sharing this message with.
00:08:32.658 --> 00:08:33.649
I'm like jacked up.
00:08:33.649 --> 00:08:34.759
I want to punch something in.
00:08:35.239 --> 00:08:37.999
I want to punch the wall in a good way.
00:08:40.788 --> 00:08:43.908
But I'm just saying, man, dude, this is, this is why I share it.
00:08:44.568 --> 00:08:45.589
I'm not talking to you, man.
00:08:45.589 --> 00:08:48.109
I'm talking to me to not talking to just you.
00:08:48.109 --> 00:08:49.009
I'm talking to me.
00:08:49.009 --> 00:08:51.698
I want to be a man more consistent.
00:08:51.698 --> 00:08:53.229
I want to be efficient.
00:08:53.708 --> 00:08:55.749
I want to squeeze the juice out every single day.
00:08:56.849 --> 00:08:58.048
I want to get shit done.
00:08:58.408 --> 00:08:59.428
I want to make an impact.
00:09:00.269 --> 00:09:01.408
I want to be proud of myself.
00:09:02.538 --> 00:09:03.928
see, now, you know where you're going.
00:09:05.078 --> 00:09:06.759
And this is an all facets of life.
00:09:07.239 --> 00:09:07.899
Personally.
00:09:08.379 --> 00:09:12.609
Professionally relationally, financially, physically, spiritually.
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:14.139
Anything else that ends in L Y.
00:09:15.129 --> 00:09:16.448
Where you want your life to look like?
00:09:17.438 --> 00:09:18.759
Start moving in that direction.
00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:19.418
Remember?
00:09:19.899 --> 00:09:21.759
Direction is more important than speed.
00:09:22.908 --> 00:09:28.129
So when you know who you are, Where you're going and what you do day in and day out.
00:09:28.938 --> 00:09:30.318
These are non-negotiables man.
00:09:30.318 --> 00:09:31.668
These are no matter what.
00:09:32.958 --> 00:09:34.249
You're guaranteed success.
00:09:35.688 --> 00:09:37.068
The timeline is not up to you.
00:09:38.178 --> 00:09:41.089
But what you do to be in position for when it happens.
00:09:42.168 --> 00:09:43.428
Is entirely up to you.
00:09:44.729 --> 00:09:48.808
So just keep it simple in an amazing how complex we make things.
00:09:49.408 --> 00:09:51.149
How confusing we make life.
00:09:52.048 --> 00:09:52.589
I mean.
00:09:53.548 --> 00:09:54.359
We do.
00:09:54.989 --> 00:09:56.068
Just keep it simple.
00:09:56.729 --> 00:10:00.269
I mean, I end every episode with keep it simple, keep it moving.
00:10:00.298 --> 00:10:00.808
Meaning.
00:10:00.839 --> 00:10:02.668
I don't get complex.
00:10:02.668 --> 00:10:04.318
The complexities will sabotage you.
00:10:04.349 --> 00:10:05.158
Keep it simple.
00:10:05.308 --> 00:10:06.208
Keep it moving.
00:10:06.509 --> 00:10:14.249
Meaning when you stumble when you fall, when you backslide, when you skid across the floor, when you get embarrassed.
00:10:15.599 --> 00:10:18.749
When the world abruptly just kicks you in the nuts.
00:10:19.798 --> 00:10:20.458
Keep going.
00:10:21.198 --> 00:10:24.528
You ain't If you can blink, if you could breathe.
00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:26.538
Keep rocking.
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.499
It's going to be beneficial to you in the long run.
00:10:29.528 --> 00:10:30.999
Just don't know how it's going to play out yet.
00:10:31.928 --> 00:10:33.489
So keep things super simple.
00:10:34.719 --> 00:10:38.558
And anything that violates, I will, let me tell you this, anything that violates.
00:10:39.249 --> 00:10:41.739
Who you are now that you've defined it.
00:10:42.129 --> 00:10:43.028
Who you are.
00:10:43.778 --> 00:10:44.798
What you do.
00:10:45.308 --> 00:10:48.099
And where you're going, anything that violates that.
00:10:48.969 --> 00:10:49.839
Not allowed in.
00:10:50.168 --> 00:10:52.028
You don't have to explain it to anybody.
00:10:52.418 --> 00:10:54.038
Oh, let me explain something to you.
00:10:54.278 --> 00:10:58.149
I am now in a process of defined, who I know.
00:10:58.658 --> 00:10:59.528
They don't understand.
00:10:59.528 --> 00:11:01.028
Anyway, nobody understands you.
00:11:01.028 --> 00:11:01.538
Like you.
00:11:02.739 --> 00:11:04.328
You just live the example.
00:11:05.139 --> 00:11:05.979
That's all you do.
00:11:06.038 --> 00:11:07.599
You don't want to explain it to anybody.
00:11:07.599 --> 00:11:08.589
They're going to sabotage you.
00:11:08.589 --> 00:11:09.458
They're going to derail you.
00:11:09.458 --> 00:11:17.558
They're going to pepper some bullshit in your life because people who try to talk you out of your dreams are the very ones who gave up on theirs.
00:11:18.308 --> 00:11:18.999
No.
00:11:19.479 --> 00:11:20.068
No more.
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:21.548
Not going to happen.
00:11:22.568 --> 00:11:24.428
So you just live the example.
00:11:25.749 --> 00:11:27.519
And I've work in, in do.
00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:29.379
This is a working blueprint.
00:11:29.649 --> 00:11:29.889
Okay.
00:11:29.889 --> 00:11:31.688
This is a floating document.
00:11:32.168 --> 00:11:33.639
Meaning, it's not set in stone.
00:11:33.668 --> 00:11:35.798
We're not, it's not the 10 commandments.
00:11:35.889 --> 00:11:39.908
You do have to put something on paper, but it's going to be a working document.
00:11:40.328 --> 00:11:41.798
You're going to have line throughs.
00:11:41.948 --> 00:11:43.269
You have scratch out.
00:11:43.749 --> 00:11:45.038
Five years from now.
00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:47.379
You're going to be a different person.
00:11:47.379 --> 00:11:51.578
So who you are, what you do and where you're going, will change.
00:11:52.119 --> 00:11:54.278
But at least chart the direction.
00:11:55.269 --> 00:11:58.629
And when it does change, it's just going to change for better.
00:11:59.019 --> 00:11:59.708
Period.
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:07.418
So if you do that, And you, you keep your environment sterile, meaning anything that violates this.
00:12:07.808 --> 00:12:08.918
I don't allow in.
00:12:09.889 --> 00:12:11.298
You're guaranteed success.
00:12:12.269 --> 00:12:12.818
Why?.
00:12:13.999 --> 00:12:16.879
Because time is a wonderful storyteller.
00:12:18.198 --> 00:12:20.958
Please share the show with someone else who needs it.
00:12:21.678 --> 00:12:23.599
Listen to it again, if you need it.
00:12:23.688 --> 00:12:24.048
I know.
00:12:24.048 --> 00:12:25.038
I certainly will.
00:12:26.259 --> 00:12:27.698
I thank God for the message.
00:12:28.269 --> 00:12:30.068
That I've been given to share with you today.
00:12:31.058 --> 00:12:32.198
And share with myself.
00:12:32.619 --> 00:12:32.948
All right.
00:12:32.948 --> 00:12:33.639
Let's get out of here.
00:12:33.668 --> 00:12:34.509
Keep it simple.
00:12:34.568 --> 00:12:35.408
Keep it moving.
00:12:35.589 --> 00:12:36.369
Never settle.
00:12:36.369 --> 00:12:37.849
Stay tough peace.
