Excuses make today easy, but tomorrow hard.

Discipline makes today hard, but tomorrow easy.

If you're a nerd, lift weights.
If you're jacked, read books.

A jacked nerd is unstoppable.

There are two types of people:

1. Those who value time.
2. Those that have meetings all day with no substance.

Masculinity means:

- Honor
- Respect
- Strength
- Protection

There is nothing toxic about it.

• You must be clear minded
• You must be passionate
• You must be relentless
• You must be yourself
• You must be patient
• You must be alert
• You must give

Do these...success will follow.

A scarcity mindset brings scarcity.

A victim mindset brings victimhood.

If you want to succeed like a winner, you should:

• Stop looking at the short term

• Stop looking for a perfect strategy

• Stop seeing problems, start seeing opportunities.

Master the art of timing.

Time is one of your greatest assets you possess.

Learn to master it and it'll become your greatest ally.

Never be in a hurry, it will seem you lack self control.

Stay back when the time is not right.

Strike only when the timing is perfect.

Protect your reputation

Don't let others intimidate you.

Why do you think some people charge such amounts for their work?

This is where the reputation card comes in.

Work on your reputation, do everything it takes to create the image you want of yourself.

Confidence is the degree to which you can trust yourself.

January 1st could be day 1 or the start of week 5.

Go get after it.

HOW TO FIND PEOPLE WHO SHARE YOUR VALUES-

Everyone wants to keep people around who shares their values.

BUT HOW MANY OF YOU ACTUALLY KNOW YOHR VALUES?

Like, word for word? How many of you have actually written them down somewhere.

Take a piece of paper and write down your 3 core values, RIGHT NOW.

That’s step 1.

Step 2 is actually putting them out into the environment and staying them often.

95% of guys don’t do this.

They don’t let their friends know, their business connections, their women know their values.

You don’t do this by actually putting them word for word, BUT YOU CONVEY THEM THROUGH STORIES.

You talk about an ex friend of yours who did something you didn’t like and now he/she’s out of your life because he/she broke your fundamental values (and then you state them)

WATCH AS THEY BEND TO YOUR VALUES.

WATCH AS THEY ADOPT YOUR VALUES.

Use this, it’s extremely POWERFUL.

Sometimes hitting rock bottom brings out the fucking warrior inside you.

Things People Learn Too Late:

- Others treat you the way you treat yourself

- The biggest risk is not taking any risk

- Family matters more than friends

- Beneath anger there is always fear

- A lifetime isn't so long as you think

- Happiness is a choice

You can’t see your blind spots.

Ask other people about your weaknesses and strengths.

Don’t protect your ego, be rational with the feedback you get.

Your life will never be the same if you make the scary yet right choices.

Get comfortable being uncomfortable.

You get what you put up with in life.

Turn your wants into standards.

You're not an "introvert".

You're shy, insecure and lack social skills.

Don't lend money to friends you want to keep.

What topics do you guys want me to talk about more here?

- Grapes must be crushed to make wine.

- Diamonds form under pressure.

- Olives are pressed to release oil.

- Seeds grow in darkness.

Whenever you feel crushed, under pressure, pressed, or in darkness, you're in a powerful place of transformation.

Trust the process.
