A motivational talk about breaking habits to build the life you want. The speaker recounts surpassing a former manager to show what extreme commitment looks like, and ties success to modeling it for his son.
Listen, you don't break the pattern. You don't break the cycle. You don't get the new life. What you're doing can't produce a better version of you or more in life or more money or more happiness or more abundance without breaking the cycle. Only extreme people make it. I understand that. Not everybody wants to take over the world. I get it. Listen, I had a manager when I was younger. He was my manager. He was making more money in me. And I always wanted to make money. I always wanted to win. And so I came up on him. Bam. Cracked it. Dude broke every record in the company. I'm making more money than him. He hated me. I want to take over the world. If I miss six o' clock dinner with my family, it's because I'm showing my son what a man looks like. That's my version of a father, okay? My dad wasn't around, my dad didn't do nothing. So I want to be the one when I tell my kid he can do anything, I want to actually have done it so I can say, don't go look to that man. Look right here in your own blood, son. But my family knows we are breaking the bloodline, okay? She's aware that when I get home, if it's 8:30, guess what? I will be home at 8:30. And we're going to show the family some love. But we don't have a time restraint on winning. Here's not how winning works. It's not going to hit the doors till 6. And all of a sudden, what about 6 to 8? The doors get hot. You miss winning, you can't compete with me. Now you see why I'm making more money though? Because like I'm after something different than you're after. What makes me happy is becoming the best in the world.
