In this May 24, 2021 episode of The Ash Cash Show, host Ash Exantus delivers a high‑energy, motivational broadcast that blends show promotion, audience engagement, and a sales pitch for his suite of services. He repeatedly urges listeners to subscribe to the Ash Cash Show podcast, the Mind Right Radio app, and his YouTube channel. He announces a limited‑seat, three‑day "book intensive" taking place June 8‑10 in Atlanta, outlining what participants will receive: title and cover development, idea fleshing, dictation, branding, social‑media strategy, and a full manuscript draft. He emphasizes the importance of a sellable book title and eye‑catching cover, and promotes additional offerings such as the Millionaire Mindset Blueprint, videography, and branding assistance from collaborators like Ramiah Trask. Throughout the episode, Ash delivers motivational coaching about replacing old mindsets with fresh foundations, practicing gratitude, focusing on purpose, and trusting God. Guest interjections from voices identified as Steve Harvey and Chadwick Boseman add brief affirmations. The episode closes with gratitude shout‑outs to community members, a reminder of the seven remaining slots for the intensive, and a final encouragement to adopt a success mindset and share the Mind Right Radio platform.

Right, and so, I'm excited though, right. So, here look, the 3-day intensive is going to be powerful because not only, right, not only are we going to allow you to number one, right, we're going to help you get the book out. So, that's most important, right. What's— yeah, yeah, that's my sis. Shout out to Candace. What's important, most importantly, we're going to help you get the book out. But it's not just getting a book out, right. It's not just getting a book out like this. I promise you, you'll never go to a 3-day intensive like this ever in your life, right. In fact, the following month I'm going to raise the price because of everything we're adding into it. And so, right now for the price— so, let me just tell you all right now so you all can understand. For the price that you all are getting this 3-day intensive for is what Is what I would spend, you know what I mean? Like, not even an hour, I'll be honest, right. It's a half an hour workshop for me, you know what I'm saying. And so, the price that you're getting the intensive is a half an hour workshop. And so, you get 3 days, right. You get 3 days of us pouring into you, right. So, we're going to pour into you, me and my team going to pour into you for 3 days. Number 1, We're gonna make sure that you get your ideas out, but then sellable though, right. Make sure that your idea is sellable. I'm going to steal this quote from the first lady because she's helping me, you know, run my social media. And there's a quote that she posted the other day that said, not advertising your business is like winking at a girl in the dark. Right, right. It's like it's like winking at a girl in the dark. Nobody knows what you're doing except you. Big bar, right? I'm gonna say that again, right? Advertise not advertising your business, right? Is like winking at a girl in the dark. Nobody knows what you're doing but you, right? And so here's here's the deal about branding, right? Fashion out the Irish. So we just want I'm just gonna give you the game. Because I, because I'm, because I'm, um, I, I, I, I need to see you win. That's it. I just need to see you win, right? I need to see you win, right? And so not advertising your business is like winking at a girl in the dark. Nobody knows what you're doing but you, right? And the truth of the matter is, if you have a business, if you have a a product, if you have a service, if whatever you got, right, whatever you got, if nobody knows about it, if you out here with the best service, with the best whatever, and nobody knows about it, then makes no sense, number one. Number 2, right, number 2 is that even if somebody knows about it, if it isn't of value to them, if you don't package it in a way that is valuable to them, then what is the point, right? I get people to DM me all the time trying to offer me things, but they're not trying to find out what do I need. Every single person that I work with right now has led with— like, has led with service, right. But not just like, oh, You know, I do this, this would be a good look for me. So, somebody— yo, literally, right, I ain't going to put their name out there, but literally somebody texted me and was like, yo, I could do this service for you and I'll do it for free because it'll look good for my portfolio.
What?
I don't even need it. So, the service that they're trying to provide me, I don't even need. But they're telling me, right? They're telling me, yo, take let let me do this service for you for free because it will look good for me. So first of all, it's not free, right? Because I whatever whatever you're coming in to do, I had to pay for that to make that happen, right? Then on top of me having to pay for it, you want me to give you access to what I already paid for so you could do something for me that I don't need so it can help your Portfolio. If you don't go sit down, you don't go sit down somewhere, right? And why do I say that? Because at the end of the day, if you don't know, like, if I was a target for them, right? If I was a target, if I'm part of their target market, because the person doesn't even follow me, which means that they probably are sending this message, right? They're probably sending this message to a lot of influencers and hoping the influencer says yes, right?
I'm assuming.
I don't know.
Right? But my point is, yo, see if I need it first, right? And so, why am I even saying this? Because that's what happens with any of your products or service, right? Any of your products or services, if you don't know your customer, then you're going to be hitting them with these pitches that don't work. There's a million books out here, There's a million books out here, right? And with all these millions of books, I'm sure there's some that are powerful. I'm sure there's some that's gonna hit your soul. But the people don't— you don't understand. A lot of people don't know how to brand, yo. Yo, I see, you know, and I'm not— you know, I don't claim to be a book guru. Right. Because I can only tell you what works for me, you know what I'm saying? I can only tell you what works for me. I can only tell you my experiences. I can only tell you my successes. I can tell you that the people who have listened to me have been successful. I don't have one person who's listened to me fully though, right. Because I got people who might take my course or take a program and listen to me halfway. Right? They'll listen to me halfway. They'll be like, oh, I'm gonna take this. I'm gonna take that. I'm gonna take that. Go ahead. Do what you do. But for me, my last 4 books, all of them have been bestsellers, right? My last 4 books all give me at least 4 figures a month, right? Because once I figured it out, I was like, oh, this is it. So I'm gonna do it this way. You know what I'm saying? I'm gonna do it this way. And so, a lot of people are putting out products and services and they're not even like, they're not even thinking about their target market. They're not even thinking like, who actually wants this? You know what I'm saying? Like, who wants this? And so, for me, with the 3-day intensive, like, you're not going to— you're not just going to go there and, you know, I'm going to say I like this. Nah, like, yo, would it—
What it—
like, is your title sellable? That's the first and foremost, you know what I'm saying? First and foremost, is your title sellable? When I read your title, am I going to want this book, period? I don't even start with writing the word. I start with the title, right? What is the title of this book? What is the subtitle of this book? When somebody reads it, are they going to know who the audience is, right? Are they going to know who the audience is, right? So like, I got a new book coming out. Shout out to Nadira Brown. Right? I got a book coming out. And when you listen to the title, From the Block to the Bank: How to Make the Most of Your Circumstance to Maximize Your Full Potential. I'm talking, I'm talking to a certain— I'm talking to certain people. Not everybody's my audience. I'm talking to certain people, right? And so if you've never heard of me before, if you've never heard of Ash Cash before, and you say from the block to the bank, okay, first of all, who says the block, right? And so I—
so, so I—
so I'm talking to people from the block. Future, past, and present, right. Future, past, and present. Anybody who understand the term from the block, they're going to pick up the book. And they don't got to be kids either though, right. Because future, past, and present. Then, right, then how to overcome, how to make the most of your circumstance to maximize your full potential, right. And so, your title matters. Right, your title matters, right. Your title is going to matter, right, number one, right. Number 2, right, number 2 is your cover is going to matter, right. Does your cover grab attention? Does your cover allow people to get to know what your book is about? And then once you do that, then let's flesh out, let's flesh it out. Let's come up with a great idea, right. And so that's what I'm going to be helping everybody doing a 3-day intensive, right. Number one, we're going to, you know, we're going to help you flesh out your title, flesh out the idea because even the idea has to be grand enough, right. So, my book, right, my book is going to be in every inner city school in America, right. From the Block to the Bank, how to overcome— I always mess it up, right. From the Block to the Bank, how to make the most of your circumstance to maximize your full potential. That book will be in every inner city, right, every inner city school in America. Not just NYC, I see a lot of people saying NYC, but not just NYC. It's going to be in every inner city school in America, right. Because that's my target demographic is anybody living in the inner city, anybody, right. And so, my point is in the 3-day intensive, number one, we're going to focus on Making sure, right, making sure that we're, you know, we get your title out, making sure that we flesh out, you know, what this is, make sure this is a good idea. And then after we know that it's a good idea, then let's get the book out, right. Then we're going to have, you know, it's going to be a small group. And so, we're going to, you know, help critique the book and start critiquing it and tell you You know, whether it's sellable, then I want you to be able to outline. And, and, and so, so, so we're going to be able to do that. We're going to be able to critique the book. Then you're actually going to teach us what's in the book enough so that we're going to get, you know, the, the most of the book out dictated. Uh, and so that way my team and I— so my team and I are going to take what you, what you dictated and we'll flesh out the rest, right? Now, after that's done, right, so I'm saying in 3 days, my team and I will have enough to give you a full book, right. But it doesn't stop there. We then have, you know, the branding god himself, right, Ramiah Trask is going to help, right, help you with branding ideas, right. And so, we're going to— it was going to be a surprise, but my guy Ramiah Trask is going to be in the building. Right? And he's gonna— he's also going to give everybody who signs up, he's gonna give everybody an author's page. So, one-page author's page that's gonna help you with your branding, right? Then he's gonna give you some tips on, you know, social media, on how to, you know, how to make sure your social media looks good so we can increase that reach, you know what I'm saying? Then, then, And I was gonna keep this a secret, but, but, but fast shout out to my guy. So one of my business partners on Inside the Vault, you know, you know, he's somebody, he's a platinum, platinum producing, you know, producer, platinum producer, right? Platinum producing producer. I don't know if that makes sense. But he's a platinum producing producer. You know, he has, has started many brands. So I mean, I don't want to throw some names out there, but you know what I'm saying? Like, like, he, you know, if anybody's a Kandi fan, um, you know, he was one of the executive producers of, uh, Kandi: Coded Nights, um, helped get it on television, uh, does a lot of creatives behind the scenes, uh, executive producer of Inside the Vault. And so when you look at Inside the Vault, uh, you know what I'm saying, that's not just me, you know what I'm saying? Um, and so he's gonna come in, he's gonna be in the building to really talk to us about The Millionaire Mindset Blueprint, because we're actually working on a program together because one of the things that we talked about is how do we help people become millionaires this year? Because I think that's the goal, right? A lot of times our thought process is little, right? And so, what is the process? So, he's somebody who— I mean, we both have made a lot of money, lost a lot of money. And so, we have the blueprint on both sides. Right? The blueprint on both sides. Like, how do you skip? So, how do you— first of all, what not to do, right? So, we'll share our stories of making a lot of money but losing a lot of money. So, we'll give you that side because a lot of times people focus on this one piece of, yo, make money, make money, make money. But once you make the money, if you don't know how to keep it, if you don't know how to grow it, if you don't know how to multiply it, then what's the point, you know what I'm saying? And so, you know, we're going to be talking to you about the Millionaire Mindset Blueprint. It's a program that's coming out, but he's going to give you a teaser. And yeah, you know, we're going to have videographers, so we're going to shoot some content. So, we're going to shoot some content for you as well. Yeah, I promise you it's going to be a packed 3 days. Like I said, you know, anybody who gets in on this first round Just call yourself fortunate because the price is probably going to double for the next one, right. So, the price is going to double in the next intensive because I promise you it. So, here's the deal though, if you listen to me, right. If you listen to me, if you listen to what I said or what I say and what my team says during this intensive, You will make back your investment and more, right? And more, right? You will make back your investment and more, I say within a month or 2 after your book is out. You know what I'm saying? After your book is out, if you listen to exactly what I say. So you're going to get uncomfortable, you got to get uncomfortable. You can't do the things that you've been doing, right. I'm going to give you the blueprint into how Julian Gordon did $100,000 in 3 months prior to, you know what I'm saying, before the book even came out, you know what I'm saying. And so, I promise you after this intensive, the price is doubling, right. And so, I just want you all to know we got 7 slots left. So, right now we got 8 confirmed, 7 slots left. And so, yeah. And so, I need y'all to tap in. Go to my book. I mean, I got a lot of applications I got to follow up with. But www.mybookinthreedays.com. And look forward to the Millionaire Mindset Blueprint. Because I think it's gonna be, uh, it's gonna be powerful. Uh, so, uh, so my God, we're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna collaborate on that. Um, and, and we're gonna make some millionaires this year, you know what I'm saying? Um, a book in 3 days. Yeah, we, we're gonna make some millionaires, you know what I'm saying? Like, uh, the, the, the goal, the goal, the goal is to help other people, uh, reach their goals, you know what I'm saying?
So, uh, fast out there.
All right.
Let's do, let's do, let's do daily aspiration real quick. Dwight, I'm doing the other phone today. So let me let's do daily aspiration real quick. And let's see, let's see, let's see. Who we gonna rock with? Who we gonna rock with?
Ah, damn!
I hate when they do that. All right, hold on for a second because I don't know my password. I don't remember. I don't be remembering my password. Yeah, um, I usually have— I usually read the daily aspiration for my, um, man, we gonna do this one. We're gonna do this different. I usually read the daily aspirations on my, um, on my phone, but I'm using my other phone today. And so let's start this off. I'm gonna go back to the daily aspiration. But let's start off with this. I need you to be in a success mindset this week. This week I need you to be in a successful mindset. Because there are those who think they can't and those who think they can, and they're both right. You are now listening to mindrightradio.com, the only place to get inspiration and motivation all day, every day. Um, yeah, you should have a book content idea for sure.
As Henry David Thoreau said, never look back. Unless you're planning to go that way. That's how people get trapped. There's something inevitable about the way that the human mind works. It's going to try to draw you backwards. It's going to try to get you to focus on the bad things that have happened. It wants you to see your mistakes. It wants you to wallow in your mistakes. And I'll give it that maybe it has the best of intentions. Maybe it's hope. Is that I don't repeat those mistakes. Maybe what it wants to ensure is that I do better in the future. But the problem is your energy goes where your attention is, and if your attention is the past, that's where you're going to live. That's where you're going to spend your time, and you're never going to be able to plan for the future. The future doesn't happen. The future has to be built. It has to be created. And if you're not taking the time to map out that creation, Then it's going to happen by accident, and you're never going to get the things that you want. You're never going to become the person that you're capable of becoming. But to become that push, you have to push yourself. You've got to make huge demands of yourself. And to do that, to have the energy to see that through, you've got to know what it is that you're trying to accomplish. And as William Faulkner said, don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries or your predecessors. Try to be better than yourself. But how can you do that if all you're doing is looking in the past? You've gotta have an eye for the future. You've gotta know who you are today. You've gotta have the self-awareness, the presence to look at yourself honestly, to accept what it is about yourself that is weak, that is inadequate, but without punishing yourself, without spending that time beating yourself up in the past, living there in the pain of what you got wrong, living there in the pain of all the things that have happened to you—
You don't get that all out just from being here.
That were outside of your control that you didn't want. You want to build something new, don't spend any of your energy trying to tear down the old. Instead, spend all of your time building the new.
Yo, hold on, hold on, hold on. Wait, wait, wait, wait. I want— I want— I want y'all to miss this bar. I don't want y'all to miss this bar real quick, right? Um, yo, my guy, my guy said, uh, stop spending so much time Right. Tearing down the old, redoing the old, just build something new, right. Man, I feel this in my bone, right. Yo, yo, just start now, right. Stop trying to add on to a layer that's broken already. Let me explain. You could do 2 things. You have an old mindset that has left you stuck. You have an old mindset that has gotten you to a space where you're not flourishing the way you should be flourishing, right. It's your old mindset. It's your old mindset that says you're not good enough. It's your old mindset that says that you got to wait your turn. It's your old mindset that's telling you that, you know, like, you got to do things in a certain way or whatever, right. Your old mindset, right. Your old mindset is keeping you stuck. And so, because you keep replaying this old mindset over and over and over again, you're trying to build something new over something that's rotten. Your old mindset is rotten. It's deteriorating, right? Like, this old mindset, it's rotten, it's deteriorating. Like, how are you building— how are you trying to build something strong over an old mindset? Yo, throw away the whole building.
Don't—
like, change your address. It's rotten, it got mold in it, it's disgusting. You trying to build something fantastic on top of this old mindset, it is going to crumble. It might stay there for a little bit, but it is going to crumble. I need you to start new. I need you to start new today. I need you to start a new foundation. Stop thinking about your limitations. Stop thinking about the past. Stop thinking about why it didn't work before. Stop thinking about none of that stuff. Today, I need you to start a new foundation.
You want to be—
you want to run a 6-figure business? Then what is it going to take to run a 6-figure business and start with fresh soil, right? You want to run a 7-figure business? What is it going to take for you to run a 7-figure business and start with fresh soil? Build the foundation and build from there. Get rid of that old mindset. Stop trying to add things on to a mindset that does not work. We know it doesn't work. You got proof it doesn't work. You have the results to show it doesn't work. So why you keep doing the same things over and over and over and over and over again trying to get a different result? Why you trying to build off of something that is already— you know it's rotten. I ain't telling you this. You know it's rotten. You know it's not working. You know it's not working. So, so, so start— I'm saying start fresh. Start with the fresh mindset, right? And the fresh mindset is like, yo, I know I could do this. I know I could run a 7-figure business. I know I could have everything my life desires. Not saying, man, yo, I could have everything my life desires if this.
No.
Fresh mindset says the universe always says yes. So, I know Right, I know I can have everything I desire, I just got to put it out, I just got to put the thought and the actions out there, period.
It becomes the thing, it becomes the race against yourself, it becomes the race that were outside of your control that you didn't want. You want to build something new.
Build something new.
Don't spend any of your energy trying to tear down the old. Instead, spend all of your time trying to build the new and that becomes the thing.
Wait, I'm sorry, my fault, my fault, my fault. I just want to say this again, right. I want to say this again, right? Because I want you to understand, right? Yo, stop spending so much time trying to tear down the new— I mean, tear down the old, right? So what happens is you got this old building, right? Right. You got, you got, you got this old building and you got— and you, you want to build a new building. And so instead, instead, instead of just building the new building, you got plenty of land. Instead of building a new building, you spending so much time trying to tear this one down, right? You trying to tear this one down, you trying to tear this one down, and then once you tear this one down, then you're gonna start building this new building, right? How about, how about you leave the old building where it's at, right? It ain't no good anyway. It's going to deteriorate by itself anyway, so leave it where it's at and go, and go, and go, go to this, to the land, the fresh soil. and start building it up, right. Because energy is energy. The energy that you're taking to try to get rid of your old mindset, right, or get rid of, you know, try to tear down whatever, the energy that it's taking is energy that you're actually taking away from building that 6-figure business, from building that 7-figure business, all right. I don't care if it didn't work before. I don't care about that. I know what works. I don't spend time analyzing what didn't work. I know what works. I know what works. And so I put all my energy into what works, right? I surround myself with powerful people that, yo, I posted this the other day. I posted the other day. I said, listen, my guy Lamar Tyler, right? My guy Lamar Tyler said, yo, what my guy said? My guy said, you know, create a circle, right. Create a circle, right. Get in a circle where your dreams seem small, right. Get in a circle where your dreams seem small. Yo, when I tell you that this year I've surrounded myself by people who are on another level to the point where as I started to look at my goals, I said, damn, bro, you bugging. I said, yo, you bugging. Like, you're not even— like, you playing small, right? Because I'm looking at my goals, and I'm gonna be 100% honest with you. I'm looking at my goals, right? I'm looking at my goals, and I'm like, yo, bro, you're not even going hard enough. Because you— the people in my circle, I'm talking about, they going hard and they charging what they worth and they getting everything they worth, you know what I'm saying? Yo, First Lady and I over the weekend, we was like, yo, we just— so, remember I told you I wanted to buy a building, right? I was like, yo, we want to buy a building. And I'm, you know, I'm going to be fully transparent. A lot of times when I'm talking to y'all, I'm talking to myself as well, right? And we— because we all the same, we all— so if you're listening to me, we struggling through the same thing, probably just at a different level, right? And so, and it's not a flex or nothing, but it's easy for me to make 6 figures, you know what I'm saying? Like, it's easy for me to make 6 figures. Like, that's not a challenge, right? That's not a challenge. But can I, right? And multiple, right? Multiple 6 figures, multiple 6-figure businesses, that's easy for me. But can I challenge myself to do multiple 7-figure businesses, right? Can I challenge myself, right? Can I challenge myself to build multiple 7-figure businesses this year though? Not next year, not in 5 years, not in 10 years, right? Because I'm witnessing in real life people that I'm around building multiple 7-figure businesses. Right? And so I'm challenging myself. And so I'm gonna give y'all a transparency moment. I'm gonna give y'all a transparency moment. I told y'all I wanted to buy a building. I was like, yo, I'm gonna do this building, I'm gonna do this studio, whatever. That was not my real— that wasn't my real dream. That was me, you know, that was me being small. That was me being small. And so I saw a building. that was like, it's an old church. I won't say where it's at, but it's in Atlanta. It's an old church, right. And I saw the building and I believe the building, you know, I believe the building is $900,000, right. And so, I said, I was like, yo, I'm gonna buy that building this year. So, I was confident telling you I'm gonna buy that building this year, right. Because it's like $900,000. which means that I don't need the whole $900,000, right. I just need— right. But that wasn't really my goal. My goal wasn't that. That was my temporary goal because I was going to buy the building, build it up, but eventually get what I want. What do I want? I want a campus, right. I don't want— like, Man Rice Studios is— I don't want that to just be a building. I actually want a whole campus. Like, I want a gym, I want an educational center, I want a technology center, you know, like, let me stop there, I want, right. But my desire was bigger than just a building, right. My desire was bigger than just a building. My desire is to have our own gym, the desire is to have our own, you know, event space, the desire, right. So, all these desires But instead of just going with the desire, with the full desire, right? Instead of going with the full desire that cost four million, matter of fact, right? Right. Yeah, my right Mind Right Academy is that, right? Instead instead of instead of right instead of going with the full desire that cost four million dollars, I said, yo, I'm gonna go with the I'm gonna go with what I know I can get a hundred thousand dollar building. That's light work, you know what I'm saying? I could get a $900,000 building. So, I started diminishing what I'm doing, right. And so, as I'm around these high-performing, high-achieving people, I say, yo, your goal's too small. You need to— yo, yo. So, me and the first lady yesterday, we went to this campus. Oh my God. Yo, when I tell you that is the goal, Yo, this joint is 10 acres. It's a whole campus on a 10-acre lot. And so when I tell you, right, instead of trying to— because part of me, right, part of me was trying to get rid of an old mindset, and I'm building on top of this old mindset instead of just saying, yo, new mindset. You want your desires for a $4 million campus, a 10-acre campus? That's— it's done. Now, now, now that you have this, this, you know the number, right? And so I need y'all to know y'all number, right? I know the number, right? And so $400, you know, uh, or $4 million is the asking price, right? And so how much, right, how much is it gonna cost to To get that building, you know what I'm saying? And so no no no more small thinking. I need y'all. I need y'all to right. So so so so in God's will, inshallah, in God's will, next intensive we doing it. You know it's not next one, but I mean maybe. Let me not let me not limit God, right? Yeah, let me not limit God. But at some point. We do it, we do it, we doing events, we doing events at the compound, at the Mind Right Money compound, right? At the Mind Right Academy, you know what I'm saying? We gonna do intensive there, you know what I'm saying?
All right. Any of your energy trying to tear down the old. Instead, spend all of your time trying to build the new, and that becomes the thing. It becomes the race against yourself. It becomes the race to see if you can make yourself better. You have a vision of who you can become, and you're constantly racing against that person. You're trying to become better than that person. You're trying to outperform your own expectations. And when you can do that, when you can set a bar that is ridiculously high and then become somebody capable of surpassing that, then and only then will you become the person You are meant to be. So put all your time and energy into building you. As Epictetus said, he is a wise man who does not grieve for things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has. And that's gratitude, isn't it? It's the very base decision that we all have to make. Are you grateful for the things that you have in your life, or are you always wanting more? And trust me, I get it. I understand people that strive for more. I understand people that want something bigger and better. But at the same time, if you allow yourself to only think about what you don't have, to only be striving for something more, that, that obsession will begin to overtake you. It will begin to corrode you. But ultimately, it's a choice. Ultimately, at any time, right now, in this moment, you can stop and think about what you have. You can put your attention on the things that you're grateful for and watch what it does. Watch what it does in that instance, the way that it changes you, the way that it changes your chemistry. Your feelings in a moment can shift from negative and dark to Beautiful. With nothing else changing around you, nothing but you deciding that you're going to focus on the things you're grateful for. Nothing but deciding that there are things in your life to be grateful for. And that is a decision. No matter what is happening in your life at any moment right now, in depth of a depression, something going on terribly in your life, you can choose right now.
Choose right now.
To think about the things you're grateful for.
Yeah.
The breeze, a smile from somebody kind, a stranger who holds open a door for you, anything. But it's a choice. And as Einstein said, there are only 2 ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. Everything's a miracle. And what choice are you making? What are you choosing to focus on right now?
What are you choosing to focus on right now?
Let gratitude fill you up or not. And here's the critical part, and I want you to listen to this really well. Whatever you decide, whether you decide you live in a world of miracles or whether you decide you live in a world devoid of miracles, you are choosing one thing to the exclusion of the other. And when you focus on something that you're grateful for, when you look at those little moments in your life and choose to see See them as grand miracles, even when it is only a gentle hand on your shoulder, even when it's only a kiss from somebody who you've kissed 1,000 times before, even when it is only holding the hand of somebody who needed their hand held, even when it's something that simple. It really is a miracle, that it really is something that can heal you. It really is something that will change your chemistry, bring a connection between 2 people, allow you to see a grander vista, or even just open a window and look out at the world And realize that you're alive, that this is all a miracle, that none of this is guaranteed, that every breath you take could be your last. And in that, you can choose to cherish what you have. In that, you can decide to focus on— You have a breath to take. And even when it's something that simple, When you train your mind to do that, when you train yourself to decide to see the beauty in that, and nobody can ever take it away from you.
Nobody can ever take it away.
No matter where you are.
Yeah.
No matter what's going on in your life.
Yeah.
You'll be able to rise up and feel the beauty that is being alive.
That's dope.
I appreciate you.
So take a minute. At the worst times in your life and focus on the things that you're grateful for.
Focus on your gratitude. All right, so we— so we— I'm, I'm gonna wrap this up with, with one more, yo, because I need, I need you to understand God's plan.
Once you, once you know God's plan, sometimes you need to get knocked down before you can really figure out what your, what your fight is.
Yeah.
And how you need to fight it. Sometimes you need to feel the pain and sting of defeat to activate the real passion and purpose that God predestined inside of you. Yep. God says in Jeremiah, I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you. Yep. Not to harm you.
Yep.
Plans to give you hope and a future.
Yep.
Hear me well on this day.
Hear me well.
This day when you have reached the hilltop.
Yep.
And you are deciding on, on next jobs, next steps, careers, further education. You would rather find purpose than a job.
Yep.
Or career.
Rest in peace, Mr. Chadwick Boseman.
Purpose is an essential element of you. It is the reason you are on the planet at this particular time in history.
Yep.
Your very existence is wrapped up in the things you are here to fulfill.
Yep.
Whatever you choose for a career path, remember the struggles along the way are only meant to shape you for your purpose.
Yep.
When God has something for you, it doesn't matter who stands against it.
Doesn't matter, y'all.
If it's meant for you.
If it's meant for you.
God will move someone that's holding you back away from a door and put someone there who will open it for you.
Open it for you.
Big facts.
I don't know what your future is.
I don't know.
But if you're willing to take the harder way, take the harder way, the more complicated one, the one with more failures at first, the one with more failures at first, ultimately Proven to have more meaning, more victory, more glory, then you are not ready.
We're not ready.
And press on with purpose. Yeah. And appreciate what God has brought you through.
Yeah. You and I listening to Mind Right. Talk to him, Steve.
Only place to get inspiration and motivation.
Yeah. Every day.
Y'all need this. Somebody need this tonight.
Talk to God often. Yeah, even if you're not perfect, just talk to him every day.
Every day.
You don't have to be in the same faith I'm in.
Nope.
You ain't got to call God the same thing I call.
Nope, you don't.
But listen to me, you do have to call.
You gotta call him.
It's not gonna make your life easy. Faith don't make it easy. Faith makes it Yeah. All you want is the strength to get through your life. On the days that I feel like I'm not gonna make it, on the days that it feels like I can't endure anymore, I think back on my track record for surviving all my bad days. And so far, surviving all my bad days, my track record is 100%.
100%.
It ain't about the money. No, I know a lot of very, very rich people that's miserable.
Facts.
Not happy at all. I can bet you most of you are happier than most of the people I know. And I know some very, very wealthy people, and money don't make you happy. It helps you through a lot of situations. You know, the only thing about money— money takes all emergencies and turns them into mere inconveniences. That's what money does. Money gonna change your life a little bit, folks. All of you gonna get more, but you gotta ask for it. But if that's your desire to get more of it, you gotta ask God for it. If you want to be happy and successful, you gotta ask God for it. Most people don't have the life of their dreams because you don't ask God for it. You have not because you ask not. If you up your ass, up your ass, If you change what you ask God for—
Wait, hold on.
You—
yo, hold on. Don't miss that, right? You have not because you ask not. You got to up your ask, right? I, I was asking for something that I know I got already. Is that really faith, y'all? Is that really faith when you, when you're asking for something that you know you got already? Right? Is that really faith? Like I can see it. Like I I can look. I can look and be like, okay, if I move this around, if I move that around, if I do this, all right. Here, I'mma get this. Right? So I'm asking for something. It doesn't take faith to ask for something that you could see in the physical, right? You got to up your ask. You got to up your ask. You got you got you got to start asking for the things, right? You got to start asking for the things that you cannot see in the physical. physical yet, right? Because faith, right, faith is asking for something that you— that's not in your physical presence yet, but knowing that it's done, right? A 10-acre campus is not physical. I can't physically see it yet, but I know it's done, right? You got to up your ask. You have not because you ask not.
Immediately changes what he gives to you. You don't need an education to be successful.
I don't—
I flunked out of school. What God has for you, quit tying it in education. People kill me. I know people got 2 degrees, finna go back to school, get another one. If you got 2 of them that ain't working for you, why would you go get another one of them? I know people that's mastered and PhD'd up, ain't even working. You don't need that. I'm telling you, man, your whole success is tied in your relationship to God. You can simplify this by getting in touch with your creator. That's your key, man. Everything you're going through is preparing you for what you ask God for. You just gotta quit tripping while you in the process. Because the process is necessary.
Process is necessary.
You may not see it now, but when he gets you on the other side of it, you're gonna see exactly why it went that way, and you're gonna be okay with it. But quit tripping during the process. Oh Lord, why me? You ain't the only one.
You ain't the only one.
Oh Lord, why me? You ain't the only one. Oh Lord, why I lose my job? You ain't the only one unemployed. Pull yourself together and quit tripping because you in the process. God is processing. He ain't through with you. If he was through with you, you would not wake up in the morning.
He gonna fix it.
Everything is wrong. First of all, let me tell you this right here. Why are you tripping? Everything that's happening to you is God's processing.
Part of the process.
Every difficult moment you're having, he just processing. That's all he doing. Everything you're going through is preparing you for what you ask God for. And if you need to be tough when you get to where you're going, then he gonna toughen you. If you got to be more caring along the way, he gonna let you have some trials come your way that's gonna have to produce that in you. See, the route you on right now It's the route you got to take, and it's very uniquely yours. This thing you're going through, this just uniquely yours. You just gotta understand you ain't the only one. You ain't the only one going through it. Now, in the order that it's gonna happen, it's just yours. You have not because you ask not. It simply say you have not because you ask not.
Hmm.
But you don't ask because you ain't got that together. When you ask God for something, Quit tripping.
Quit tripping.
He got it from him.
Got it.
God can't give you what you want because you want to hold on to what you got. Oh, you all in the way. Now you telling him how to bless you. You can't tell God how to bless you. It's a simple process. The only reason I'm telling you this, because this is how I made it. I just do me. Yeah, I'm just being me. I stay uniquely who I am because you are okay just the way you are because you— God made you uniquely who you are. He wanted you to be just like you are. See, God made us very different.
This is a—
this God we got, God is amazing. He created you so individually. Do you know that it's close to 8 billion people on Earth now? Do you know that it's almost 8 billion people on the Earth? Do you know how many billions of people have died? Do you know That if you dig up all them people that have died and all the people that are presently here and every last one of them that he gonna make in the future, not one of you have the same fingerprint. Who do that? Who could possibly be so precise in his infinite wisdom that he created you so unique That ain't no 2 people got the same fingerprint. That's crazy. That's real crazy.
Sometimes you need to get knocked down before you can really figure out what your, what your fight is and how you need to fight it. Sometimes you need to feel the pain and sting of defeat to activate the—
Welcome, Joy.
And purpose that God predestined inside of you. God says in Jeremiah, I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Hear me well on this day, this day when you have reached the hilltop and you are deciding on, on next steps. Yes, sir. Careers, further education. You would rather find purpose than a job or career. Purpose crosses discipline.
J Flex, what up?
Purpose is an essential element of you. It is the reason you are on the planet at this particular time in history. Your very existence is wrapped up in the things you are here to fulfill. Whatever you choose for a career, That's right. Remember, the struggles along the way are only meant to shape you for your purpose. When God has something for you, it doesn't matter who stands against it. If it's meant for you, God will move someone that's holding you back away from a door and put someone there who will open it for you. I don't know what your future is, but if you're willing to take the harder way, the more complicated one, the one with more failures at first than successes, the one that has ultimately proven to have more meaning, more victory, more glory, you will not regret it. That's all.
That's all I got.
And press on with purpose and appreciate what God has brought you through.
