spend it in a way that'll make you proud. These other people in the world, their life is on the countdown, but they're not down yet. They're still hoping for the best. They're still believing that maybe there's a chance and they haven't given up yet, but they're still fighting. I want you to understand that you are not the only one that has gone through a struggle. You are not

You are not the only one that's alone. You are not the only one that is hurting. You are not the only one. If no one else forgives you, learn to forgive yourself. Hold yourself up. When everybody else says no, you say yes. Forgive yourself. If no one else forgives you, learn to forgive yourself. You are the one that has to be accountable. No matter what happens, it's going to still fall back on you.

Keep pushing keep pushing keep pushing keep pushing keep pushing Your purpose means something but if you're gonna get to the top you gotta know what it feels like to be at the bottom You gotta know what it feels like to crawl through the dirt and the mud and all of the things that you don't feel comfortable in being in You ain't got time to try you need to start living

every single day and be blessed and be faithful and be strong and walk with power and walk with faith. If you didn't make the sun come up, you can't stop me. If you didn't make the moon shine at night, you can't stop me. You have to find a way. You must find a way to get back up. This is not the end for you. You will not quit. Do not

Take this life for granted. Live every moment knowing you will have no regrets. We are alive and breathing and capable of more than we could ever imagine. The time has come. The moment of truth is here. The question is, are you ready? Are you prepared? Do you have the strength?

Everybody wants to win, but they don't understand what it means to sacrifice to win it all. Everybody wants to be a champion, but are you prepared to work hard enough to become the champion that you believe you can be? Do you think you have the mindset now? Do you understand what it means to get into what they call... Beast Mode? But I'm here to let you know right now, ladies and gentlemen,

about being beast mode. It's about life and death mode. It's about putting it on the line. It's about pushing yourself and giving it 110% of everything you got. There is nothing that you can do once you're here except finish what you start. When the weakness starts to talk to you and whisper sweet nothings in your ear, you got to recognize

conversation doesn't help you. That conversation that you're having with weakness is not going to build you. It's not going to push you. It's not going to lift you. You got to work that must be done. You got to be responsible. You got to be capable. You got to be willing to work for what you want. I know sometimes people like to talk the talk.

I know some people like to pretend to be something they're not. I know sometimes people say they're lying, but you can't be a lion if you don't understand the rules of the jungle. So ladies and gentlemen, you got to recognize what it means to sacrifice, what it means to be powerful, what it means to be strong.

This is your moment to shine. And if you're not willing to shine, then step aside. If you're not willing to work, then this is not the place for you. You got to toughen up. You got to look up. You got to build up. If you want it, this is the time to go get it. But you got to work for it. You got to believe in it. You got to trust in it. You got to let the power flow through the veins. The blood is real.

God will push you. The pump that you're getting in this place right now is gonna take you up and over the top. But if you're not hungry, if you're not willing to get it, then you're gonna starve. You're gonna starve because you're not hungry. You're gonna starve because you're not willing. You're gonna starve because you don't want it. Only the hungry knows how to eat. Only the hungry knows how to fight.

You have time to step back. You got to go. You got to push harder. You got to dig a little bit deeper. Some people, all they do is talk. When you're in this place of business, there is no talking. The only conversation is moving what's in front of you. The only conversation is pushing when you feel you can't push. The only conversation is you against you.

The rest doesn't matter. The excuses doesn't matter. The weakness doesn't count. Excuses get out of my way. That's what this is about. So you got to recognize when it gets tough, you better get tough. Easy does not count. Easy does not work. You can't cheat your way up. You got to push your way up.

Not everyone is ready to be at the top. Not everyone is suitable to be at the top. If you're having a mental breakdown, then the body will believe. The thing that the mind is telling it to do. You got to understand that.

The mind is a terrible thing to waste. And if the mind ain't right, then the body won't be right. You have to understand that you have to have a connection.

The connection of righteousness, the connection of fighting, the connection of faithfulness in you and your abilities and your strength and your honor and your integrity. Everything that you do on this moment counts in this place. You can't wait for someone else to push you through it. You got to push yourself. You are born and you are born to live and fight.

So on this day and for the rest of your life, if you're working, work a little bit harder. You can't do easy. There is no easy in success. There is no easy in pushing that weight. There is no easy in running that extra mile. If it's easy, why are you doing it?

If it's easy, how are you growing? If it's easy, how are you gonna be your best? Suffer now and get the rewards later. Don't ask for it, take it! It's yours! Go get it! If you believe in the possibilities, then make it work for you.

Now you got to also understand this. It ain't gonna be easy. It's not gonna be a walk in the park. There's always more to give. You got to be willing to sacrifice. You got to be willing to hurt. You got to be willing to yell out. Whatever it takes, keep pushing forward. Don't you give up on your life. Don't you give up on those reps. Don't you give up on giving it what it takes to get the most of yourself.

Some of you right now may be wondering, why is this guy yelling? I'm not yelling. I'm making noise. I'm making noise to scare away your excuses. Because maybe that weakness doesn't understand that you possess. I know from... If I'm not going to shout it out, I'm going to shout it out. I'm not going to let it down. I'm not going to let people take...

I'm not gonna let this place of business tell me I have no business. Yes, the voice, the power, the passion, the love I have inside. I give it to you. I give it to the listener. I give it to the weightlifter. I give it to the marathon runner. I give it to the swimmer. I give it to the Zumba dancer. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from.

comes you must recognize that you've got to be better you've got to be tougher you've got to be stronger because nothing that did not create you cannot break you be the best of yourself be the strongest of the strongest don't let anything or anyone hold you back because you have it it's all in you possess it love it live it give it all you got and from the bottom

Be productive. Stay strong in it. No excuses. And conduct your business. Every day, I wake up and think of my ideal life. I have so many goals that I want to accomplish. I have so much that I want to do. I have a vision of my life. And I'm nowhere near where I want to be. At times, I get overwhelmed.

and I become so impatient with myself. I truly feel sometimes I'm just falling behind. I feel at times the clock is winding down. It truly is a struggle to stay positive and motivated. Sometimes, like most people, I want to throw in the towel and just give up. Sometimes it just feels like there's just no use. There's just too much ground to cover.

I need to cover it so that I can get where I need to be. I need to constantly remind myself over and over again. I am not yet where I want to be, but I know I'll get there. I am not where I want to be, but I am so grateful. I am not where I used to be. I am talking to those people that are just about to give up, that are just about to lose all hope. I am here.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's your you on to let you know that you, you my friends are going to get there. You are going to get that promotion. You are going to complete that marathon and you are going to run for your life. Whatever you are working towards, you are going to get there. But you got to get crystal clear what it is you want, what it is that you are seeking for, what it is you truly want. You must know.

You've got to know that you're going to get there. But most importantly, most importantly, ladies and gentlemen, work like, crack the ground and keep moving. Make the ground shake, crack the world, get it going, don't let nothing stop you. I am pleading with you. When the rest of the world shuts you down, you've got to be the one to stand up, shout out, cry out, stand tall, work hard, dig deep, and go after it.

There's nothing gonna stop me. If you didn't make me, you can't break me. If you didn't make the sun come up, you can't stop me. If you didn't make the moon shine at night, you can't stop me. My will, my dedication, my motivation is all about doing the business because guess what, ladies and gentlemen? That's what I'm about. I'm about that business. I'm about that life. What are you about? I need to constantly remind myself I'm not yet where I want to be.

But I know I'll get there. I'm not where I want to be but I'm grateful I am so grateful that I'm not where I used to be I keep thinking to myself that I'm never gonna be good enough Doesn't matter what I do how many battles I've won how much I've overcome How much I've achieved sometimes ladies and gentlemen, I feel like I'm undeserving because I haven't pushed myself enough I look back

Sometimes of moments of regrets in my past. I wish I have made better decisions in my life I truly do if only I had pushed just a little bit more did a little bit better Just an inch just a fraction of an inch is all I needed to give I know ladies and gentlemen there are moments in your life You've experienced it, too

You didn't rise up to the challenge when it called for you. You didn't rise up to the challenge because you were afraid of it. You could have just given a little bit more effort, but you wasn't prepared for the effort because you weren't built for it. And this is the time when you have to recognize what is necessary to get the job done right. It's very difficult. I know. Because you keep telling yourself over and over again, you're just not there yet. I'm not where I want to be.

But please, please listen to me. You need to remind yourself you may not be where you want to be, but look, look how far you've come. Look how far you've gone.

With all of the circumstances you've been through in your life, everything that you have been through, everything that has came at you and knocked you down and put you down on the ground, but you're not under the ground. So now you've got to rise up, ladies and gentlemen, and push forward and go after it. Look at how far you've come, how much you had to overcome, how many battles that you had to face just to get here.

Just look at everything you've achieved. Just when you thought you were out, something pulled you back up. Your willpower, your faith, whatever it was, you got to where you needed to be. You have to know that as long as you're living, there's always going to be some kind of a battle, some kind of a struggle, some type of a conflict in your life. But you got to be prepared, ladies and gentlemen, to go through the challenges. This is not a dress rehearsal. This is a moment.

This moment, ladies and gentlemen, is your life as much as any other. Spend it in a way that'll make you proud. No matter how far, how far you fall down or fall back, ladies and gentlemen, keep going forward. The work, ladies and gentlemen, do the work. You may feel the same way. Feeling like you may not be where you want to be. And you're just wondering,

If you're ever going to get there. Most people, they slip up when they're trying to make a change. It's a natural part of life, ladies and gentlemen. We all going to make mistakes. We're going to slip up from time to time. But you don't stop moving forward, ladies and gentlemen. Keep going. You're not where you want to be. But I know in my heart and my soul, you're going to get there. I'm not where I want to be. But I know.

I'm going to get there. There's nothing stopping you to get to where you want to be. So just keep on pushing. You've been through your own obstacles, ladies and gentlemen. I know. You've been through heartaches and pain. Sometimes those disappointing moments, they come back to haunt you. Doubts seeps in. This moment, right here, right now, is your life.

If no one else forgives you, learn to forgive yourself. Hold yourself up. When everybody else says no, you say yes. Forgive yourself. If no one else forgives you, learn to forgive yourself. You are the one that has to be accountable. No matter what happens, it's going to still fall back on you. Pat yourself on the back and give yourself a kiss.

and keep on moving. No matter how far off track you go, ladies and gentlemen, get back on the track and keep on moving. So what? You slip up. You fall down. Big deal! That doesn't mean you stop. Do you give up or do you keep going? Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing.

Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. I gotta keep pushing. I gotta keep pushing. I gotta keep pushing. Shame on you if you don't have enough strength within your mindset and in your heart and in your soul to know that most success stories always

Have a humble beginning. You're not supposed to start at the top. You got to grow it for the rest of the world to know it. We seem to be so concerned and afraid of falling down. Sometimes it seems that gravity is just pulling us down. It seems that nothing good is happening in our lives. We are afraid to fall down. Why? Why is this happening?

Why am I in this dark place? Why do I feel so lost? Why are things constantly hurting me? What do I do? You got to believe in it and continue to lift it up. You must understand that it is a necessary opportunity for you to find out exactly what you are ultimately made of. It is not going to be an easy day.

In fact, it may not necessarily be an easy life, but you have a life. And with this life, failure will come. But you got to believe in it. You got to trust in it. You got to stand on it. You got to stay on these that's not building you up.

Feed your ideas, feed your dreams because they're starving right now. You must be stronger than your excuses. You must be stronger than your circumstances. You must be stronger than your fears. You need a little bit of understanding that you can go further in your life. My ideas, my dreams, my vision, they're gonna see it. How can I progress? How can I believe?

If I'm afraid to take a chance, make this moment count. Why me? Why is this happening to me? Why am I suffering so much right now in my life? Was I born to suffer like this? What does it mean for me, me, the individual, to suffer so much while everyone else is enjoying their lives?

But what we don't understand, ladies and gentlemen, is that everybody has a certain story that is going on in their lives right now. Why shouldn't I suffer? Maybe Rue was made for me and me alone. Because no one on Earth can go through the hell that I'm going through right now. Because I'm the only one that was built for it. I'm the only one that was created for it. This is why I'm going through it. I'm going through it because it's necessary.

It's necessary for me to understand, for me to be better, for me to be stronger. I must learn to suffer a little bit. I cannot reap the rewards of success without understanding about struggles. So I say to you, don't ever doubt, don't ever fear, and don't feel that you have to be unexplained, that you can't carry on.

To build a better you. Because you have to understand that there are many people in the world that don't have the capabilities that you have to carry on the good fight. And this is why you are going through what you are going through right now. You must understand it is an opportunity of a lifetime for you to suffer, to build, to fail, to grow, to hurt. But you gotta keep moving.

You can't give up on your life. You have to understand that everything that you are dealing with right now is only a temporary thing. It will not last forever. And that pain that you are dealing with right now, those things that you are feeling in your heart right now, these are going to put you in a position to make you feel that you are not worthy. But I'm here to let you know that you are worthy and you are built to last.

Because your creation matters. Every step that you take on this earth matters. You, my friend, has just begun. It's going to go on in your life all the time. And you're not going to always be able to smile. You're going to have to cry. And it's okay to cry. But don't let yourself be vulnerable to weakness. Let weakness consume you.

Let hopelessness consume you. Be about your business. Understand that you got to keep living and living strong. So don't ever question the fact that you got to go through what you're going through and feel that why is this happening to you and why are you going through these things and what did I do so bad to deserve all of this misery in my life? Why do you feel that because you're struggling that your life is over?

Your life is not over. It has just begun. You can't claim a victory without a failure. You can't gain strength without a few mistakes along the way. When I told you about weakness, when I spoke about weakness, there will come a time when weakness will show up. Weakness will knock on your front door. The question is, will you invite weakness in? Don't give weakness an invitation.

Don't give doubt an invitation. You need to understand that the life that you have been given is already designed for something. You're going to have your good days. You're going to have your bad days. You're going to celebrate. And some days you won't. But don't ever feel that you don't deserve a struggle. Don't ever question why. Because when it alters in your mind, when it enters into your brain, ask yourself,

Why shouldn't this happen? Maybe this is what my life is supposed to be about. Maybe I'm supposed to be a living, breathing testimony to many others. They don't seem to understand the direction that they need to go in their lives. Maybe I'm supposed to be able to talk to people and share good information to let them know if you're living today, if you're walking on this earth today, prepare yourself for many battles ahead.

And you're not gonna win every battle because every battle is not meant to be won. Sometimes you're gonna need to humble yourself, to understand that these things that you are dealing with is only for you. To have to understand even more within you that no one can do what you do. So I say to you, continue to carry on.

continue to lift your head up continue to believe in your abilities and never look back but keep looking forward and no matter what happens in your life keep the good fight and from the bottom of my heart conduct your business I want to talk to someone out there who is thinking about quitting and giving up someone that is hurting and struggling

Someone that is feeling lost. This is for you. Don't give up. Please don't give up. The hard times that you are going through are going to pass. Remember this. They are going to pass. You have overcome every single challenge that you have faced so far. Without failures or challenges, there could be no success. It is a necessary step. Stay in it.

Stay focused. It's hard, but it is worth fighting for. It's worth believing. Tough times don't last. Tough people do. Your pain is your power. Your pain is your passion. You suffer so you can be much stronger tomorrow. You suffer to remind yourself that you have to go through suffering to get to the next level. You have to find a way

You must find a way to get back up. This is not the end for you. You will not quit. Do not take this life for granted. Live every moment knowing you will have no regrets. We are alive and breathing and capable of more than we could ever imagine. Life is not easy. We all go through hard times.

But we do not need to stay in the hard times. Most of the people out here have given up. They spend all day long watching television, playing video games. There's nothing, I mean absolutely nothing wrong with just having a good time and relaxing. But if you're watching television for eight hours a day all day, every single day, there's something inside of you that wants more for your life.

It's time, ladies and gentlemen, to make a change. What can you do to move closer to your goals and your dreams and your passion? You, my friend, have the power to make a difference, to make an impact. It is not over for me. I am going to make it.

This is my comeback story Let's make up in our minds that before the battle we are going to be victorious Start accepting that things are changing It's hard being down and it's hard getting through this your battles. Why am I hurting? What am I doing here?

How did I get to this place? I've been good. I haven't done that bad. I'm not a bad person. You don't have to be bad to experience bad things. Because sometimes bad things happen to good people. So it doesn't mean that you're out. It doesn't mean that you're done. It means you are living. It means you are growing. It means that it's necessary. Let it be it.

Carry on, but let it be. Keep pushing, but let it be. Because if you don't do it, no one else will. Don't be afraid. Let it hurt a little bit. Let it sting a little bit. Let it serve its purpose. Because that purpose that you are experiencing, it's necessary just for you. It's tailor-fit for you.

I've got to go through my problems. I've got to go through my circumstances. I've been through them. I'm going through them right now. I'm speaking to you. I'm speaking to every living human being that is listening to me today. Look at my face. Look into my eyes. Hear my voice and know that it's not over for you. Know that the pain, the hurt, and the setbacks, and the failures are

All of these things must happen. Why? Because you exist. Your purpose means something. But if you're going to get to the top, you got to know what it feels like to be at the bottom. You got to know what it feels like to crawl through the dirt and the mud and all of the things that you don't feel comfortable in being in. Then you will get up and you will go up. But as you're going up, there's going to be more circumstances, more problems.

more issues, things that are gonna push you back. But ladies and gentlemen, you're not dead. You are breathing. You are alive. You are alive, but you're hurting. You're alive and you're breathing. You're alive and you're walking. You're alive and you're running. So while you're hurting, keep going. If you're feeling pain, keep going. If your heart is beating,

Keep going. If your lungs are working, keep going. But don't you dare give up. Don't you quit. You hurt, you grow, you go. And from the bottom of my heart, keep it moving and conduct your business. While the rest of the world is sleeping, you are wide awake and you are on the attack for your success. It doesn't start with them and they.

It starts with me. So I'm just wondering when you're gonna make it personal. Are you really prepared to grind it out? Everybody wants public authority, but nobody wants private discipline. When your habits change behind the scenes, when your private life begins to shift, when you put aside the things that are not serving you, if it's going to be personal, make it personal. Don't just be great in public, be great in private. Success doesn't always have to be loud.

Sometimes it's necessary to be quiet and just move. Are you really prepared to do what you need to do to get what you want out of your life? You gotta live, you have to breathe, you have to eat this purpose. Every single day you are either losing ground or gaining ground. You are not going to win anything.

Until you understand what struggle means, you can never quit. But you gotta walk hard and silent. You gotta walk when nobody's watching. You gotta sacrifice behind the scenes. When you take it personal, your private life changes. Success is a process. The process comes before success. The struggle comes before the process.

Everybody wants to contribute to destiny, but nobody wants to be committed to destiny. What kind of work are you putting in behind the scenes? What can you conquer in the dark? How personal is your purpose? This is what we call grinding in silence. Not everyone needs to understand your true motives. Not everyone needs to understand your purpose.

Not everyone needs to understand your mission, but the truth is it's about passion. It's about discipline. It's about awareness. It's about accountability. That's right, ladies and gentlemen, you got to be accountable for your actions. But are you prepared to grind it out? Are you prepared to dig a little bit deeper? Are you prepared to fight a little bit harder?

Are you prepared to put in overtime? Somewhere along the line, you lost your footing. You lost your place. It got cold. Too cold for you. And see, one thing about an achiever is rain, sleet, or snow, they keep building. But you have not sacrificed. You have not suffered. You are not committed. When you are committed, give everything you have.

Every single week, every single day, every single hour, every single minute, 720 hours a month, you are beating on your craft. Even when you're at work, you're dreaming, you're thinking, you're vision casting, you're writing it down, making it play, communicating to your destiny connections so that it can become a reality. If you can see it in your head, you can hold it in your hands. But the question I want to ask you is...

Are you committed? Now it's time to grind. Now it's time to fight. Now it's time to believe. Now it's time to know that your success story has yet to be told. Don't sit back and have a pity party. Don't sit back and wait for an opportunity to happen. It is up to you to go out there and get the opportunities. You want success?

Then go get it. You want to be better? Then be better. You want something more than what you have right now? Then you got to have the desire within your heart and go strong and go with everything you have. I don't know who I'm talking to. I don't know what you've been called to do, what you've been called to accomplish, what you've been destined to build, who you've been called to be connected to. But the dots will connect.

Every single moment that you have is an opportunity of a lifetime. Are you committed or are you just contributing? The choice is yours. This time, make it personal. Hear my voice. Know that you do have some work to do. The work that you do will determine the outcome in the end. But do it in silence. The ones that need to be a part of your development...

They will always be there. And the ones that doubted you, I'm talking about the naysayers, just simply say, be quiet, because you have nothing to do with my success. You gotta give 110% and get it to a point where all you got to say is, you don't have nothing to do with my success.

The noise that you making can't stop my purpose. The noise that you making can't stop my fight. The noise that you making can't stop my grind. Your noise is just empty. It means nothing to my success. I didn't get it overnight. And yes, I had many sleepless nights. And I had amazing dreams.

of what I could become. Can you stretch yourself? Can you condition yourself? Come on, can you believe again? Can you see it again? Can you write again? Can you make this thing personal? That it doesn't start with the people connected to you. It starts with you. It doesn't even start with your past. It starts with where you are and where you're going. Can you look ahead? Can you stretch forth? Can you condition yourself? Can you prepare yourself for the next thing? Come on, make it personal. But you gotta work hard in silence.

You gotta take it personal. I make this thing personal. So while you're sitting around second guessing yourself, my beautiful people, get back on your grind. Be productive. Keep your head up high. Stay in the moment. Live every moment. Move in silence. And from the bottom of my heart, conduct your business.

You got to learn how to move in silence. How dare you? How dare you give up? There are people in the world right now that want to live a little bit longer, but they can't because they're fighting a disease that is killing them right now. They can't do anything about this disease. This disease is terminal.

They can't recover no matter how much they fight. They can't come back from it Although they are hoping for the best the reality sets in and they know they have only so much time But you you are the one that's complaining so much. How dare you? How dare you how dare you complain? You don't have the right to give in you don't have the right to

To make it all about you. Stop letting the world shut you down. It is not the world's responsibility to make you better. It is not the world's responsibility to build you up. Find a way. Make a way. And keep living every single day of your life. If you gotta stand alone, stand alone with power. If you gotta stand alone, stand tall.

If you gotta stand alone, keep looking up. So many people in this world are fighting many battles that are tough, that are not forgiving, that makes them feel hopelessness. How dare you give up? These other people in the world, their life is on the countdown, but they're not down yet. They're still hoping for the best.

They're still believing that maybe there's a chance and they haven't given up yet, but they're still fighting. I want you to understand that you are not the only one that is going through a struggle. You are not the only one that's alone. You are not the only one that is hurting. You are not the only one.

Maybe you're that person that's not fighting cancer. Maybe you're that person that's not homeless. Maybe you're that person that doesn't have nothing else left to give because they have nothing at all to give back. They've given everything they thought they had and now they feel their life is over. But I'm here to let you know that you are not over. You just got to get over and you got to keep going.

You gotta keep believing in something and stop believing in the things that are not gonna make you more than what you are. How much do you care about your day? How much do you care about your life? How much do you care about your success? How much do you care about living your life? Or do you care so much about people that don't care about you? You don't have that right. How dare you fall back?

How dare you say you're done? How dare you say it's over? How dare you commit to the things that are not giving you the ammunition and the strength to carry on? Maybe your job, all the work and the hours you're putting in may be too hard right now. You don't feel appreciated. But I'm here to let you know

That person that you served, that was the same person that lost a loved one in their lives. They lost their child. That baby girl passed away, but yet they came to your place of business and you're giving them bad service and you don't even know their pain. How dare you? How dare you? How dare you? How dare you? How dare you? All you care about is how bad your day is.

All you care about is what you don't have. All you care about is what you lost. What did you lose? You lost your car. Anything that's materialistic can be replaced. But when your life is over, it will not come back.

Humble yourself and recognize your life ain't so bad because that other person that we're talking about, they're fighting that cancer. That other person that we're talking about, they are homeless. That other person that we're talking about, they don't have a family to go home to. So why can't you understand the significance of life? You don't get a pants.

You don't get a pass to keep making the same mistakes over and over. You don't get a pass of feeling sorry for yourself. You don't get a pass to saying it's okay, at least I tried. You ain't got time to try. You need to start living your life every single day and be blessed and be thankful and be strong and walk with power and walk with faith. This is it.

This is the time to recognize your potential, your truth. Everything about you is beautiful. Recognize your purpose in this world. We are all

Responsible. We are all made to do great things. Be accountable. Be productive. Be powerful. And from the bottom of my heart, conduct your business. It's been tough. It's been hard. I've had those days where I just said, I can't take it anymore. I had those days where I cried out. I didn't think no one was listening.

This is who we are.

We are all students of life. So never forget, no matter how much you think you know, you never know enough. Because if you're living, you're learning. Remember that. You're living, you're learning. You're learning, you're growing. Through the good times and the bad times, you're learning something unique and special about you every day of your life. And that's what makes it special. I'm learning.

You're probably thinking that this ain't got nothing to do with me. It's got everything to do with you. Because maybe you got the right things happening right now for you. But to your right, that guy over there, he ain't living so well. But you're learning something. Because if the tables were turned, could you deal with it? Could you handle that stress? Could you handle that poverty?

How long have you been homeless? How long have you been hungry? How long have you not had clothes on your back? How long have you been out of a job? Did your family walk out on you? Did your father walk out on you? Did your mother walk out on you? Are you going through a bad relationship? Have you lost your way? This is what you're learning right now. Sometimes we all got to learn the hard way.

How many times as a child you heard your mother and father tell you not to do something, but you did it anyway. And you had to learn the hard way. It wasn't the fact that you got disciplined perhaps by your parents, but the world disciplines you more. That's what makes it beautiful. The hard times sometimes can be the best times. Why? Because you're going to build up something. You're going to build up that grit. You're going to build up that tenacity.

You're going to have a better understanding. But you got to know what direction you're going. And sometimes you may not even know. Sometimes people hate to be wrong because they feel that they're always right. Sometimes you got to learn how to listen and not always speak out in thinking that you know so much. Because you're going to learn the hard way that you're just not that smart. You don't have all the answers. But just people walk outside your door, driving your vehicle on the road. You will see.

how much you can really learn just from people. Some people are going through some significant problems right now, more difficult than you can ever imagine. You think you got it tough? You have no idea what that other person got going on. This is how we learn. This is how we grow. This is how we build. Yes, you're going to go through those challenges. Yes, you're going to go through some tough times in your life.

But like I always say, when it gets tough, you get tough. Kill the excuses, kill the weakness and learn something about yourself. Learn that you're not that great, but you're great enough to learn something new every day. And you must learn to humble yourself. Yes, there are people in the world who literally glorify themselves as if they were God Almighty Himself.

But you got to understand you didn't make the world. You were born in it. And eventually you will die in it. But when you're walking this earth, when you're living in this world, understand that you're learning because you're living. Maybe I just don't have all the answers. Maybe you should change a little bit. Maybe you need to understand that everything is not going to always go the way you think it should go.

If the world was so perfect, we wouldn't be in the position that we are in right now. But it is not the world's fault. It's the people that are living in it. And you, my friend, are a part of it. I am a part of it. And the decisions that we make, the way we think of ourselves, the way we think of our brothers and sisters, will be the true outcome of where we are as a people.

So maybe all of these bad things that we are experiencing in our lives is because it must happen. But we are learning. Believe me, we are learning, but we're growing. Maybe some people don't realize the importance of hardship. Maybe some people don't realize that it's okay to go through those hard times. That's what you're learning right now.

This is what's going to help you to understand what type of a difference you can make as an individual, as a human being, as a mother, as a father. What do you do? How can you continue on your life not realizing that we are all learning? So yes, maybe you think you're awesome. There's nothing wrong with confidence. There's nothing wrong with believing in yourself.

So when I say it again, I say it with conviction. None of us are that great. We are searching for greatness. And that's a long, long, long journey. But we can do it together. Instead of tearing down, let's build up. Don't tear it down, build it up.

Build a bridge. Cross the bridge with me. Let me cross the bridge with you. Let's learn together through the good and the bad. The hard times are going to come, but we're going to stand. We're going to fight. We're going to push. We're going to work. Because here we are right now in this world. Do we fall down or do we lift each other up and carry on? That is what we do. This is who we are.

We are all students of life. If you're breathing, you're learning. If you're learning, you're living. So carry on the good fight, my beautiful people. Stay productive, stay strong, keep it moving. And from the bottom of my heart, conduct your business. It's 4:00 AM and your alarm clock goes off. You're thinking, do I really need to get up? Maybe five more minutes.

Let me just rest my eyes for five more minutes. But then you kick a leg out from under your blanket and the other leg falls. You feel that cold hit you like a shot of ice to your brain. A silent whisper crosses your mind. Why am I getting up? Should I go back to bed? And you're thinking to yourself, I'm so tired from the day before.

Why am I doing this to myself? Every fiber of your being is telling you just go back to bed This mountain is too high. It's just not working. But today today is different today Something else is speaking to you. It's a hunger the beast inside first It was a whisper then the loudest scream you ever heard Yelling at you to get up

Put both feet on the ground and rise. It is time to take on this glorious day. Welcome to the first day of your new life. A life where you decide every moment of every day to better yourself. To make those uncomfortable choices. To get you where you want to be. But you know that this is your new life. And it's going to cost you your old one.

It's gonna cost you your old self, but you're ready. You're ready to step up and take a hold of your new life and make it everything that you can imagine it to be. This is day one. It's only gonna get tougher from here, but you know you are made tougher. Tougher than any other obstacle that comes your way. The only thing you need to do is pick up your feet

With every step you need to decide to take another. Walking through anything that comes your way. You my friend are on your way. You're on your way of carving out your new life. Taking what you deserve and never backing down without a fight. You have come too far to only come this far. But don't look back now.

This, my friend, is what you've been preparing for. You are on the cusp of greatness. You need to keep going. Don't stop now. This is not the time to let doubt and insecurity sneak in. You have no time for that. It's all up to you. Rise and grind. It's time to be a body.

It's time to get the life you always wanted. It's time to understand if you want to get something out of your life, you have to be willing to work for it. It's all up to you. Rise and grind. Rise and grind. Rise and grind. So you got to understand that you got to get up and be willing enough to get the most of the life you've been given.

I believe and I stand on it to this day as long as the sun is shining on my face and not on my grave I got an opportunity of a lifetime I don't have time to waste time because as soon as that Sun comes up it's gonna be about his business I need to be about my business because my life is my business people question me and they ask why do you get up so early

Why coach? Why do you get up so early? Why do you need to get up so early? I need to get my sleep. You need to get your sleep. I need to get up. Because while the excuses are sleeping, I'm working.

Are you gonna let success sit around and wait for you? You believe that success is your best friend Success doesn't care about you if you don't care about success You know why because success is already made up his mind It is going in the direction that it needs to go It is hunting for the one that wants it the most but you're not doing the hunting you're sitting around waiting you become something else less of yourself and

Because you don't believe that you have the potential and the capability to be the best of yourself. So why? You just sit back and wait for somebody to pat you on the shoulder and say it's okay. At least you gave it your best. Your best ain't good enough. Your best don't work. You need to go beyond your best. You need to go beyond the level. You need to let the world know that you exist. You need to let the world know that you made different. You're built different. You're stronger. You're more passionate. You believe in yourself. When the rest of the world shuts you down,

You woke up the next day and you said, I got this. I do this. I breathe this. I am this. You can't stop me for who I am, what I am, who I am and what I stand for. You don't belong in this world. You don't belong in my world of life. You don't belong in my world of person. You don't belong in my world of passion.

You don't belong in my world of strength. You know why? Because you ain't strong enough. You're not willing enough. You're not passionate enough. And you know why I'm so passionate? Because the rest of the world don't understand my passion. The other world don't want my passion. They think my passion is too much. I'm gonna give you a little bit more. You know why? Because passion is what makes me who I am today. What are you? And what are you prepared to do? Are you prepared to fight? Are you prepared to bleed? Are you prepared to work? That sun is the weapon. That sun

gives me life. Rise and grind. So they want you to come on their side. They want you to believe in their ideas of what you think of yourself. They doubt you and you believe what they doubt. Instead of you waking up from your slumber. Instead of you waking up from this nightmare of despair and letting your opportunities come to life.

It's going to be a tough time, ladies and gentlemen. It's going to be rough. It's going to be some tough times and tough days ahead for you. Your ideas are going to die. That doesn't mean that you stop. It doesn't mean you stop believing in yourself. You just got to keep on working. When you got people looking at you from the left side and the right side, from the front to the back, and you in the middle, just remember, everybody's watching.

Just give them something to see let them see it. Are you watching me? Watch this or you want to stop me? You can't stop this That's the mentality that you must have in yourself. Don't you dare give up now. It's okay Yeah, I heard a little bit but I feel I know what that pain feels like And I know how to keep marching and I know how to keep moving and I know how to get productive in my life Can't stop

which you didn't create. You can hate it, but you can't dominate because it belongs to me. Do you realize how difficult it is to be different? Does that mean you're supposed to shame on you if you don't have enough strength within your mindset and in your heart and in your soul? Listen up! Yes, I'm talking to you. You've been put in a position where you ultimately doubted yourself.

You've been told over and over again that you're not that great, you're not that good. You started to believe in all of these things that you have been told most of your life. That is your fault because you have more faith and belief in the people that doubted you instead of believing in yourself. You're not supposed to start at the top.

You got to grow it. You got to believe in it. I never told you that was going to be easy. In fact, you don't deserve it. If you can't struggle through it, you don't deserve it. If you can't hurt from it, you don't deserve it. Nobody should have that much success in their lives if they didn't put nothing behind it. We don't know the story behind the story.

Yes, there are people out there that cheated their way. That ain't got nothing to do with you. You need to focus on believing in yourself. Taking pride in yourself. You do what you gotta do. You do what you need to do. And feed your ideas. Feed your dreams. Because they're starving right now. You can't push yourself forward if all you're thinking about is the doubts.

and the negative things that people are saying. Because you're relying more on their ideas and their dreams of you instead of you relying on your own dreams and ideas of yourself. Why would you want to surround yourself with people that don't have ideas that are great? Why would you want to surround yourself with

Because of a number. You know, a lot of people tend to wonder, oh, how many friends they have and how many people in their corner. Oh, I have a million followers. I have tens of thousands and thousands of people that support me. How many of those people do you actually know? Realize the power that you have right now. Even the people that don't like you, they are drawn to you. They see you, but they don't see your greatness.

They don't see what you truly have inside. Afraid of it. They don't lift it up. They don't encourage it. Because they're not happy. Today, recognize your true beliefs. Stop thinking that the rest of the world is against you. You have a few people that may not ever support you. But you got just one. That one person that matters the most. And that is you, my friend. You. So work.

Dig a little deeper. Support your ideas. Nourish your ideas. Feed your dreams. Make them a reality. Believe in yourself. When everybody turning their back on you, believe in yourself. This is it. You're not done. You're just working. And if you're working, you're growing. So keep up the good fight. Stay tight. And never quit.

This is the moment of your time. This is the moment of your life. This is the reality check that you deserve. I'm not here to make you feel warm and fuzzy. I'm here to tell you the reality is real. So be real with yourself. Understand your value. Don't depreciate yourself. Realize that there is more to you than less of yourself. Keep focusing on your purpose.

and tell weakness to step aside because strength is coming through. Be productive. Look up and from the bottom of my heart, conduct your business. Dear past me, I know that there were times that you wanted to give up. Times that you wanted to throw in the towel and quit. Times when life was so hard and it just seemed like there was no light at the end of the tunnel. You went through loss

You almost lost everything at one point or another. Both of your parents are gone now. And hardships. People judged you. So many people didn't believe in you. You failed at things again and again. But you know what? You didn't give up. You kept going. You pushed through. You kept your head held high. Why were you working so hard? Because you were trying to get it.

Why were you at the gym so many hours? Because you were trying to get it. Why did you turn down those parties and those drinks and those drugs? Because you were trying to get it. You're going to have to have those losses. You're going to have to fall back a few times. But you got to keep going forward. When the wind is pushing you back, you got to push through it. You stay focused.

Dear past me, thank you for the lessons. Dear future, I am ready. Ready to start over. Ready to drop the parties, the drinks, and the haters that are bringing me down. Ready to give it everything you have. Ready to work. Ready to enter a new phase of life. Ready to drop those friends and family members who did not support me and my goal and my dreams.

Ready to grow and get better ready to eat healthy and work out often Because where you're headed you're going to want to keep on living Ready to fail again and again because you know those failures will be forgotten except from those lessons learned from them and all those times in your future where you don't fail that's you Forging your legacy all the risks that you take

the experience you have and the memories you make. I'm ready. I'm ready to wake up each morning knowing that every day is a new adventure. This is what it's all about. The future. The now. My mind is clear. Goodbye negativity. Goodbye gossip and drama and fake friends and those people hurting me.

You know that good things don't come easy, but you are ready to embrace the hardship. This is my life. You are stronger now than ever before. The time that you have right now is to make a difference. Make it possible through the good and the bad. Make it possible. Do better. Be better. Keep moving. Never quit. So today, you start ready to change the world. Your gift starts

your inventions, your passion, ready for a new beginning. You cannot change your past, but you can definitely learn from it. And you can always change your future. Ladies and gentlemen, on the line, getting ready to run today. Life has taught you many things. Without its guidance, you would not be standing here today. It's a shame that most people in this world

Have dreams that they are not working on because they are afraid. It's a shame. Many people, they waste time. They waste time doubting. They waste time of being afraid of it. They waste time thinking too much about what other people say. It's really a shame. It's a shame that they put down themselves instead of building themselves up. It's a shame.

It's a shame that you are let everything around you bring you down to a point to where you can't get up It's a shame that people look down on you and say that you have had it and that you're over the hill Tell them this I've been up the hill many times My life isn't over yet Young man young woman you have your life to live you have to breathe that life

How dare you give up on yourself? How dare you give up on your dreams? This is your life. I've been up the hill many times. In fact, I slipped a few times. I didn't even want to get back up because I was too afraid to go up because I felt like the hill was just too steep. But you gotta know,

The steeper the climb, the harder the climb. And if it gets tough, you gotta get a little bit tougher. So what do you do? You don't keep sliding down. You find a way to get up and climb up. That's what I had to do. That's what you must do. Ladies and gentlemen, lay on your back. Lay on your back. Laying on your back doesn't mean you have to stay on your back. I have been on my back.

And I've laid down and I have cried many nights. But I wondered how I was going to support my wife and children. I know what it feels like. But I got tired of laying on my back. So I looked up to the heavens and I opened up my eyes. And I kept repeating to myself, if I can look up, I can get up. For every man and woman that is listening to this, let it be known if we are down, you do not have to stay down.

Failure only comes when we don't get back up. There is nothing good that's going to happen when you're on the ground. But you can always make the choice to get up. Rise up with me. Rise up right now. Come on up off that ground. Understand what it means to be alive. We are not just running for the glory of the race. We're not just running just to tell someone we did it.

We do it every single day of our lives because we are powerful. We are strong. We can definitely get through the hard times. We can support our families. We can definitely run for those who cannot because we are alive. We're breathing and capable of more than we can ever imagine. And we most definitely

conduct our business. It is time for you to stop doubting. It is definitely time for you to stop being afraid. It is time for you to have courage. It takes courage to pursue your dreams. The risks that you take in most cases are the greatest victories of all. I heard about a boy who's 10 years old and he doesn't have much time. This young man

is doing all that he can to fight for the life that he has left. And I want you to hear me out. I want you to listen to me. I want you to understand what I'm about to say to you is going to really get you to thinking about how precious life really is. This child who is fighting an uncurable disease. Now this disease is terminal. That means that this child will not have the opportunity to come back from it.

This disease is affecting him. It is destroying him. But yet this child is still fighting for his life. Now I say fighting because that's what we all have to do. But there are many people in the world that don't have the ability to fight. Sometimes they let the little things hold them back and they don't realize how unique and special they are inside.

So maybe you're not fighting a disease. Maybe you're not fighting something that's going to take you out of this world. But I'm reflecting back on this young man. This young man that is fighting to live as long as he possibly can. Can you imagine being the mother or the father of this child? This could be your child. This could be my child. But yet, I'm living my life. And my children are healthy. They're strong.

Your children may be healthy and strong, but this young man, his parents are preparing him for the final call. So while you're sitting around in misery and wondering why your day is so bad and you're having just such a tough life, you need to reflect on the things that you have happening in your life that is good right now. Because somebody out there don't have that fight that you have today.

Somebody out there right now is suffering. I'm not talking about the suffering that you're suffering from. I'm not talking about going to the gym. Not that type of suffering. I'm not talking about the addiction that you have of drinking a cup of coffee suffering because you feel that you need it and without your coffee you can't function. I'm talking about this young man. He would trade places with you if he could. But today

It's not gonna happen. In fact, it's not gonna happen for the rest of his life. Why? Because he doesn't have much time. How much time do you think you have today? How long do you think you have the opportunity to walk on this earth? This child, this young man will not perhaps see the opportunity to become a man because his life is slowly winding down. So while you're sitting around

and wondering how bad your day is. Think about the day that you're having today right now and realize that your opportunities that have been given to you are a sign of grace, a sign of goodness, a blessing. Even though this young man doesn't have a lot of time, he is yet fighting for his life. So even if it does seem that this is a bad time for the parents, I say to them,

Thank you for staying strong even in a time like this that you are dealing with I say to the parents they can hear me today Whatever your problems whatever your circumstances whatever illnesses that you may be around Just know that you are not out of the fight yet, and you must continue to fight You must continue to go down the path you must continue to be powerful in your life because it ain't over yet and

And I haven't heard a bell. So keep living, fight, believe, and trust. And know, just like this young man, that could be you too. Keep up the good fight. When you hear my voice and you're on that path and you're running and you're pushing, take a moment. The moment when you start to feel weak and tired and you want to give up, think about that young man that's still fighting.

that still push you, that still believe in you and knowing that he's not done yet. And if he can fight, you better fight him. You better believe. You better keep the faith and you better carry on strong. But just remember, his opportunities are winding down. You have yet to know what yours are. But since we know right now you're not fighting that disease that he's fighting,

You fight for him You fight for those that can't fight anymore and you keep believing and you keep pushing This is a fight for all of our lives So keep up the good fight Do you have the courage to grab the dream that picked you or will you let it get away? You cannot sit back and wait and wonder because you are seeking the possibilities

You are looking for something that is greater than the excuses that you are giving yourself. This, my friends, is the time. This is the hour. And this is what you must understand within you. Work must be done. Dreams and lifetime opportunities. Things that you have never even imagined.

This is that time right now. Don't let your dreams become a nightmare. This is when things could go wrong because you waited too long. You hesitated. You procrastinated. You let all of these things just slip past you because you didn't have the mindset to go forward. You were afraid you were going to fail. You were afraid that people are going to talk against you or talk about you. You let someone else determine your destiny.

This my friend is your opportunity, is your chance, the chance of a lifetime. Don't waste it. Don't put it behind you. Put it directly in front of you and attack and do it with a full heart because this is always and forever be as long as you're living business. For those that do not know what they are seeking, let me remind you.

You are seeking victory. You are seeking strength. You are seeking possibilities. You are seeking greatness. You are seeking life. To everyone on the line, you are the masters of your destiny. So be productive, be powerful, and from the bottom of our heart,

conduct your business. Go! Maybe everybody doesn't love you. Maybe there are many people that don't like you. Maybe people just don't believe in what you believe in. But what do you believe in? You trusted more in doubt. You trusted more in people rejecting you. Not believing that you had a unique purpose. You had something special that just has not been awakened yet.

You thought that every time someone looked down on you, you didn't have the ability to look up. You didn't have the ability to trust in yourself. You thought that people had more faith in your failures than your success. And no matter how hard you work at your craft, they will still find some fault in you. It must happen this way because

This is the only way you're going to know what you must do to get better at whatever it is that you are seeking in your life. No one said it was going to be easy. In fact, nobody's really going to hold your hand. But you got to have the ability to hold yourself up. You have to have enough faith within yourself to understand that no matter how far you go in your life, that it's your life. You believe in the answers that they had for you.

Instead of answering your own question, am I good enough? Can I be the best of myself? The time has come for you to understand that you cannot depend on the opinions of others. You cannot just trust in the opinions of others. You cannot allow other people to validate you because you are just who you are. Nobody is going to be like you. Nobody can be as strong as you.

Nobody can walk the walk like you. That's what makes you different. That's what makes you unique. So prove them wrong, but prove yourself to be right. Right in your decisions. Right in your mistakes. Right in your failures. You are going to have to go through all of these unique things until you actually find your truth. They say that the truth will set you free. Then free yourself from doubt.

Free yourself from the doubters and accept the fact there's more to you than what you could ever imagine. Don't hold yourself back. Don't cry over everything. Don't be angry. Have a peace of mind in knowing that I just got to work a little bit better. That I have to give myself a little bit more credit instead of pushing myself down to the ground. Burying myself because everyone else said that I'm not worthy.

My friend, you are worthy. You have uniqueness. You have something that the world has yet to see. Don't accept defeat. Don't accept excuses. Don't accept the fact that you think that you don't have what it takes when you know deep inside yourself you have it. But you got to have the faith in yourself. You got to believe and you got to stand on it. And you got to know that you can do this.

So let them hate on you. Just remember the hate that you feel that you are getting. These are the same ones that admire you more. Let the naysayers tell you it's okay to quit. Don't let the naysayers tell you that you're done. Don't let the naysayers say that you're not the person or the right fit to carry the torch. I will tell you this. My journey in my life, I was that person.

I was that individual that believed what everyone else told me that I could not do. Now I'm not telling you to be like me. I'm telling you to be yourself. I'm telling you to evolve into something greater. Yes, I was that person. I was that individual that cried at night, that was angry, that was afraid. I was so down on myself. I didn't believe I can be where I am today. When you said I couldn't do it, I showed you.

that it could be done. But before I showed you, I had to show it to myself. So today, ladies and gentlemen, you must celebrate your victories, your setbacks, your failures, and to anyone and everyone that doubted you, prove them wrong and stand tall. Be about your business. Be productive in your life. Never quit. Understand that you matter.

You have to be responsible for your life and your efforts. You have to be willing to work diligently. You have to be willing to push forward. You have to prove them wrong and show the righteousness within yourself. Ladies and gentlemen, I can promise you this. We would never really truly understand success without a little bit of hardship.

How much are we going to give of ourselves? How much are we going to understand that without these sacrifices, without these setbacks, we can never really truly understand the uniqueness within ourselves? Why in the world do you feel someone owes you something? Nobody owes you anything. In fact, you don't deserve anything except respect.

Keep it moving and conduct your business. I know that there were times that you wanted to give up. Times that you wanted to throw in the towel and quit. Times when life was so hard and it just seemed like there was no light at the end of the tunnel. There was a time in my life I didn't know what direction I would go. Believe me, that pain, that hurt...

We all got to face it sometimes. It's only gonna get tougher from here. But you know you are made tougher. Tougher than any other obstacle that comes your way. You didn't give up. You kept going. You pushed through. You kept your head held high. Every single moment that you have is an opportunity of a lifetime.

The only thing you need to do is pick up your feet with every step you need to decide to take another. Walking through anything that comes your way. Every day when you get out of your bed, you got to start your day. You got to have the ability to rise up, to get up and move forward. When you walk out that door and you go about your day,

No one understands what's coming, but you must continue to rise for each day that is given to you is that chance, it's that opportunity that you must hold on to. You're gonna have to have those losses. You're gonna have to fall back a few times, but you gotta keep going forward. When the wind is pushing you back, you gotta push through it. You can never quit.

Not everyone needs to understand your purpose. Not everyone needs to understand your mission. But the truth is, it's about passion. It's about discipline. It's about awareness. It's about accountability. You should know that being uncomfortable is not the end for you. It is a wake-up call that you have been comfortable

for far too long. People think if they're in a comfortable state that everything is okay. But it's not okay. Because when chaos shows up, you got to have the ability to push through it, to fight through it. Why were you at the gym so many hours? Because you were trying to get it. Why did you turn down those parties and those drinks and those drugs?

Because you were trying to get it now it's time to grind now it's time to fight Now it's time to believe now it's time to know that your success story Has yet to be told it ain't gonna happen by itself It's not gonna change by itself You got to be prepared to put in the work to get to that next level and go beyond

You rise up from negativity, you rise up from fear, you rise up from doubt, you rise up from weakness, you rise up from the excuses, you tell the world that you got work to do. So you gotta stay dedicated. You got to keep on pushing forward. You got to keep on fighting the good fight. You got to put aside the excuses.

Because excuses won't lift you up. Excuses won't give you the power that you truly need. Don't sit back and have a pity party. Don't sit back and wait for an opportunity to happen. It is up to you to go out there and get the opportunities. You want success? Then go get it. You want to be better? Then be better. You want something more than what you have right now?

Then you got to have the desire within your heart and go strong and go with everything you have. I'm ready to wake up each morning knowing that every day is a new adventure. This is what it's all about. The future, the now. My mind is clear. You have to wake up from the lazy mentality. You got to get past this mindset of thinking lazy.

that everything is supposed to be easy. Believe me when I tell you, I know what it feels like to be uncomfortable, but I'm not the only one that had to suffer through something. I'm not the only one in the world that had to go through some kind of agony, some kind of loss, some kind of setback. But I didn't give up. I didn't quit.

I had to realize that I need to be uncomfortable. I didn't say that, hey, why am I doing this? Why is this happening to me? What did I do? I didn't say that to myself. So today, you rise. When they put you down, you rise. When emptiness starts to come inside of your heart, you rise. When you start to feel that no one cares about you,

You rise when everyone thinks that you are less of yourself. I'm here to remind you right now that you have everything you need to rise. You know that good things don't come easy, but you are ready to embrace the hardship. This is my life. You are stronger now than ever before. The time that you have right now

is to make a difference. Make it possible. Through the good and the bad. Make it possible. Do better. Be better. Keep moving. Never quit. Be productive. Be strong. Be powerful. And from the bottom of... Rise up and conduct your business.

What if I told you that right now millions of people are living with a debilitating condition that's so misunderstood, many of them don't even know that they have it?

That condition is obsessive compulsive disorder, or OCD. I'm Dr. Patrick McGrath, the Chief Clinical Officer of NoCD. And in the 25 years I've been treating OCD, I've met so many people who are suffering from the condition in silence, unaware of just what it was. OCD can create overwhelming anxiety and fear around what you value most, make you question your identity.

beliefs, and morals, and drive you to perform mentally and physically draining compulsions or rituals. Over my career, I've seen just how devastating OCD can be when it's left untreated.
