... Of opportunity.

...an excerpt from Henry Cloud’s “The Wise,the Foolish,and the Evil”.

A Tidbit I learned from TD Jakes about getting unstuck and getting back into the road to success.

Focus on the motors of your problems (why did this happen) rather standing in the mist of the exhaust fumes ( our emotional reactions to it). Feel those emotions but try to discover the WHY so hat we can make the changes to get to SUCCESS.

If you give your goals the time, care, and resources it needs, it will have no choice but to give you what you want out of it to you… That is success!

Preparing for your opportunity vs REACTING to your opportunity will exponentially increase your success rate. Having done the preparation has you ready for anything the opportunity needs as well as give you the confidence you need to make it happen!

Don’t ever be afraid to change into the person that you want to be for the rest of your life!

Failure is just a confirmation of what you know and what you don’t know! We need it to help us reach our goals!

Take advantage to all the technology and information we have now! Especially when most of the world is sleeping on it. Less competition for the gO. GETTER

If it doesn’t makes us better, wiser, or stronger.... 🙅‍♀️🙅‍♂️

Take your opposition and use it to make you stronger! The weaknesses they point out in you, let it make you stronger.

Get specific with your goals. Being vague won’t help you reach them. Set end dates, steps to success, guidelines etc. they will help stay in track to greatness.The broader your goals are, the harder they are to complete them.

A personal story about a small poolside conversation that shifted me in HIGH GEAR and motivated me to make gO ALL IN on my goals.

Entrepreneurs, set your rate at whatever your heart desires, so long as you are ready to justify that price in your work! Work hard for yourself, the sky’s the limit!

Lara Ingraham told Lebron James and Kevin Durant to stop speaking on political and social issues and they need to “Shut up and dribble” . Listen , naysayers want you to stay in their box to that they can be comfortable dealing with you. Their comfort is not a gO.getters concern! They do not matter! Be the BEST you can be!

We must focusing more on FINISHING rather than STARTING. There is no greater feeling than finishing a task you set out to COMPLETE.

I know it is lonely on the extra mile, but don’t let just ANYBODY RIDE WITH YOU. Keep the blood suckers distant and the genuine ones CLOSE!

I found the gO.tivation in the new blockbuster hit BLACK PANTHER. A MUST WATCH!!! Both the Hero and the villain are pretty much the same person! The only difference is a real BIG difference: WHAT YOU PUT YOUR ENERGY INTO. Are you going to build a NATION or are you going to BURN ONE TO THE GROUND?

Don’t show me JUST the pretty parts of your LIFE. Embrace Your WHOLE LIFE STORY. Show me when you only lost two lbs ...not just when the end where you lost all 50lbs!!! Don’t be ashame of your journey... celebrate it!

All of your ideas for work. All we have to do is just pick one and follow through with it to the very end! It will work if you just give it the time it needs!

Get in your bubbles!

Without Love, you won’t go that extra mile to reach your goals. It takes life to survive downs and appreciate he ups! If you have LOVE , it won’t be a Question for “IF”, BUT “WHEN” you’ll be successful!

A response to POSITIVE VIBES BIGGER WHY.

HOMERUNS are idealistic circumstances, opportunities, and situations desired by individuals who haven’t worked consistently on their goals. They are very rare, and when they DO come, the odds of it working out are STACKED against you. Don’t focus on HOMERUNS, rather, focusing on getting to one base at a time. This will put the odds back in your favor and put some SUCCESS points on your board!

It wasn’t because he was 5’9”. It wasn’t because of his injury. It was from not understanding a very valuable concept that ALL GO GETTERS should learn to ENSURE OUR SUCCESS! Learn what it is in tonight’s gO.tivation Podcast!

Don’t hide your bad grades ( motivated by Kevin Hart Breakfast Club Interview bad grade story) if you hide your bad grades, that means that you are accepting the BAD GRADE, but don’t want to face the music. Accept the consequences of your actions, learn, grow and move on! Don’t be scared of it, embrace it and let it make you stronger !

Calm people don’t get the BAG. If your circle is thinking your doing too much, maybe the people around you are doing too little! Don’t be calm about the changes that will make your life better. Yeah I am hungry and thirsty, that’s because I’ve been starving for so long! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Fix your BROKN Parts! We’ve all been beatin the hell out of by life. Most of us have damage that we can’t fix. Most of us have damage we’ve yet to fix. A broken anything is not that useful to anybody. Fix what you can so that you can have the life you want to live!

When striving to achieve your goals, don’t hesitate to use established systems to make you life easier. You have trouble staying consistent in the gym and coming up with workouts? Get a trainer. Trouble saving money? Use a savings app. The more we let our mind and emotions intervene on our journeys, the higher risk we run of being unsuccessful.

There is a deeper meaning to why we do the things we do. Why are you trying to achieve your goal? Why is this important to do? Why must you put yourself to the test to make this happen? I believe that knowing your why will INSURE us the SUCCESS we are striving for in life! 🙌🙌🙌

No more excuses. No more feeling sorry for yourself. You determine your SUCCESS. NOT YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES!!!

Don’t stop! Don’t change up! Don’t recreate yourself because your audience didn’t give you the initial feedback you wanted. Don’t give up! Nothing great ever happened from giving up!

Visualize yourself achievejng your goal! Write it down, draw it, speak it into existence!!!DRINK YOUR SUCCESS KOOLAID!!! If you can’t see yourself being successful, hen who will???

So many great happen when you stop being CALM about your DREAMS!!!! To Care about being Cool (reserved) over your Dreams is no good!!! Cool will get you admiration from people that do not care if you aren’t truly happy.

Don’t let anyone take you off your path to change. Change requires struggle. Friends and Family may see struggle as a negative. They may just want you to stop so that your misery will end. They don’t know that your STRUGGLE Will give you a BETTER LIFE!!!!

Be Audacious! Take the risk! We all know what not taking those risk’ll get you.... NOTHING!!! Your life and your positive influence on those you love around you DESERVES this RISK.

Human beings think between 50,000- 70,000 thoughts a day (mental chatter, images or movies playing in our head) 95% of these thoughts are repetitive of previous days and 80% of the habitual thoughts are negative. In order to achieve success we need to learn how to focus these thoughts on what we want. *Thoughts we focus on we FEEL, therefore our thoughts have a direct effect on our emotions * What we focus on and feel we attract in our lives. Our destiny is consistently shaped by our thoughts.

Embrace your hard path. Be proud of it, as most people seldom do! 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Without CONSISTENCY we won’t FINISH! Our commitment to make BIG CHANGES in our life is needed to get started, but it will require a continual effort everyday to REACH THAT CHANGE! Stay consistent! Don’t slow down! No Brakes! Keep gO.ing!

You have to be able to stand by yourself when others abandoned you. Most people don’t like to associate with you if you even LOOK like your losing. There will come a time when they’ll rather dissassociate themselves from you than to stand by you. Stand TALL y’all !! Your success will bring them back into your fold, but will you still want them around?

SUCCESS is 99.9% PROCESS. The learning, the testing, the failures, the small victories, the discoveries, the blood sweat and tears are all apart the process. It will take a a lot of PROCESS to get to our BAG.... Fall in love with it! EMBRACE IT!🙌🙌🙌🙌

*attack your goals like a predator!!! You are the pursuer now! You are no longer the one being pursued. Get in! Get dirty! Get your trophy! 🥇

When you SLEEP, the most you can do is DREAM. When you DO, the LEAST you can do is GET RESULTS. You deserve more than the dream. Let’s go get it 🙂.

Sacrifice a little fun for a lotta life. I gave up my Bahama Cruise to be able to stack for a new crib! Stop spending your last dime for a fleeting moment. Go into your closet or storage and look at that product you BALLED OUT on? Do you still wear/use it TV! Does it still holds its value in your life that it did when you bought it? Put it next to your bills. Does it outweighs the sad feeling of being behind? Do you even still have it? When you are around others who don’t have it. Has your opinion of them ever change? Was it worth more than a dream come true?

If a physical diet helps you lose weight, Than a mental diet helps you gain success! Intake knowledge that uplifts you and pushes you to be great. Laughter is a super food. Watch and read that which makes you love more than hate more!

Our success comes with the help of friends, and our obstacles come with the help of enemies. Let us make the better choice! Putting distance between ourselves and people also means putting distance between ourselves and the world.

Stop telling what you finna do, show them what you are already doing. Don’t give your haters the inspiration. Actions speak louder than words! Nobody needs to know your moves but you and the gO.getters you roll with!

In order to see change in our life, we must exceed what is asked of us and got the extra mile to make our dreams come true. Doing what we did yesterday only isn’t going to cut it!

There is no easy way to true success! If you think you’ve found one, the. Know that it won’t last long! FIX THE ROOT of your PROBLEMS!

This is a story about how it better to let gO. of bad in order to hold on to the gO.od. Preserve your peace.

Acquiring a positive energy or vibe about ourselves is like growing a precious crop. It takes care and effort. We must not let negative, unhappy people tread all over our crops. We do not owe them anything! Just say no 🙅‍♂️🙅‍♀️.

This is a story about how keeping you integrity and staying humble can get you a BIG reward! Stay humble &keeo grinding gO. getters!!!

How to give and recieve accountability partnership!

The ones that want to see you WIN. The ones that will hold our feet to the fire about our daily or weekly or monthly goals for success. You NEED the individuals in your corner in order for you to get he BAG!

Rumonating on our doubts, failures, and anger is keeping us from the bag! Get out of your way! Uproot from the madness of negativity and move toward your goals!!🙌🙌🙌🙌

Only mediocrity is safe from ridicule - Dita Von Teese. Makes are proof of effort. Don’t be afraid to make in pursuit of your dreams. The lessons you’ll learn will make you dreams come true, not the naysayers that will hold you back!

Nobody will be as dedicated to your goals than you! Dig deep into yourself to make it happen!

If you don’t want real change in your life stay where you’re at. Don’t put yourself do through all the uncomfort and pressure if you don’t want to REALLY see the GOODNESS on the other side.🧗‍♂️🧗‍♀️🧗‍♂️🧗‍♀️🧗‍♂️🧗‍♀️

The only thing we need to GATHER from our PAST is the lessons that will help us SECURE the BAG in our FUTURE!

Don’t worry about being first but rather focus on being the one that lasts!!!!🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

There will always be something that we have to do but won’t enjoy. We will push through! Let get the job done no matter what! 💪
