Alright guys, focus of the week. I want you to think about something that you really want. Could be for you, could be for your family. It could be I want to make this much money or I want to feel confident in a bathing suit, I want to drink less or that promotion. Then I want you to think about how determined you are to get what you want. Because if you don't have determination, you're not going to make it. Determination will help you get past those challenges that will come. Determination will help you get up when you do get knocked down. So think about what you want and then the complete determination that you have to have to get what you want. Alright? Because let me tell you what determination does. It doesn't care about what other people think or how cheesy it is or how hard it is or your self limiting beliefs because it will break through that. Think about what you want and how determined you are to get what you want because it's more important than the discomfort you have to go through to make it. How determined you are determines your outcome. Focus on that this week.
