DREAM #2

You'll show them the beautiful,beautiful taste of bricks you blend your trials and tribulationswith triumph and celebration. because your son, your daughter,your brother, your sister your mother, your grandfather, your grandmother,they're depending on you. But first you must ask yourself Are you willing to lay down and bleed so you can see the dream. 

They won't understand this grind,this blood, sweat, and tears of waking up everyday doingsomething over and over again Knowing that you may not even get paid for it knowing that you won't evenhave a meal to eat at night. You see that is the true signof a champion. When I say rise kings and queens I say rise for you not for me. That freshman who is gettingready to go to college are you going to takethe obstacles that come with it? Are you going to studywhen they party? Are you going to dream when they sleep? Are you going to beat the obstacles?

 This is the questionyou must ask yourself. What are we holding back for? What are we holding back for? I got to be honest with you you don't want to look backon your life old and gray and say, "I could have" Or "I should have takenthat one opportunity That one action" That one chance that could havegiven me a completely different life" To move that inch in order to buildeven just the slightest bit of momentum. 

 inch is all it takes. It's the time in your lifewhere it's do-or-die. What are you going to do? Lock into what you want and lock out everything that wantsto keep you from getting there. What makes you feel happy and fulfilled? what lights you up from inside? How do you want to feelas a successful person? It's the time when you're feeling likeyou're scraping the bottom of the barrel you're in the dark but it's upto you to change your perception to shed some light on where you are. It's the time whenyou're ready to give up but you know If you do you'll neverbe able to live with yourself with the guilt and shame of not pulling yourselfout of this state. Become your biggest support system you can't keep allowingthe lack of support from others to discourage you to the point where you don't take action and you end up giving up on your dreams.

 Overnight success is a fantasy but real success is within your reach. No matter who you are, no matter where you areat in your life right now. For you to claw your way back outof where you've put yourself in, understand it was youthat put you there, no one else. you, you are here because of you and you're the only personthat can get back out of it. So most people stop but successful entrepreneurs,avid learners, and growth centered individuals know that becoming better isa continuous consistent process not a game with an end. Sometimes we get too hung up on who doesn't support our dream, right? My wife doesn't support my dream.

 My husband doesn't support my dream. My parents don't believe in my dream. Well, let me ask youa very important question Do you support your dream? Your gifts, your abilities, your values it's about you. you created the path you already lined the wayand because of it it's now easier to identify the thingsthat need to be learned from. now you own it. You've heard of the instant success stories the legends, the trailblazer,the rockstars they are the ones who we envy,they are the ones we want to be. The stories you've heard about peoplewho achieve overnight success they're just stories. It's a lot sexier to say someone just showed upand success rained down on them. But it's not the truth. 

There's always a hidden back storyof hard work, of struggle, of pain. No one gets to the top without identifying whatsuccess feels like for them, without sticking to itfor 10 years or more, without mastery. If you can't think, if you can't bring yourself to moveout of your current mental state to one of growth, purpose and progress I want you to follow me Take a deep inhale ask yourself,what you need in your life right now Close your eyes and exhale intothe vision you have for your life. It's going to allow you to climb back outof the hole that you put yourself in, shed light on your current position and be grateful for the experiencesthat are now about to take place. I'll ask you now what is above you?what's in front of you? You can't go any lower, you've spiralled down as far as you can go. The only direction now is up. All you have to do isjust move that one inch. Many people won't understandwhy you're grinding They won't understand why you're attendingmasterminds and private workshops instead of partyingall night long at the club.

 They're not going to understand that you know that short-term sacrificeslead to long-term prosperity. Sometimes you need tolet go of what you want now to get what you want later but it's worth it. Because you're playing the long game. Success takes time. Success takes effort. But I promise you thatwhen you finally get there, you'll look back at all of it and you won't regret a single moment. They won't understand thatyou're building a lifestyle that most people only dream about. Adding value that willimpact thousands of people and that what you do will leave a legacylong after you're gone from this earth. They're not going tounderstand any of that and you know what! you shouldn't care if theyunderstand this or not. 

Here's the thing, two people can get tothe one destination, they can get to the same destinationbut who's stronger at the end? the one who had it easieror the one who started further back who started in a deeper hole, who had to overcome more adversity. Those two people are going to get tothe same spot, the same destination one of them is going to be stronger. Your only objective is to lock in on what youtruly want for your life. So from now on get rid of the thingsthat are just a distraction. If it doesn't fall inalignment with your goals your values,the direction you want to go, and the place you want to be it is not for you. You need to define your chief aim,not someone elses. The only way to keep successwithout giving up on your happiness is to understand and definewhat is it like with you. You got to understandthat when you have a vision or a great purposeto add value to the world this is your journey alone to travel. 

You need to train yourself to look further thana few months or years. What do you want to doand have at that time? Who do you want to be? How do you want to serve and contribute? When you have that vision,get real with yourself and ask what needs to happen nowto make that future vision my reality? So take a deep inhale, Stand up straight, Lift your chin off your chest,pull your shoulders back and start to look in the directionof where you want to go. move that inch. When you get to that state creating results inyour area of expertise almost effortless. 

It's an organic processthat comes easily to you. Remember the further you spiral down just means the more growththere is on the way back up and the stronger you'll be. and you're still waiting aroundfor some kind of signal to finally go hard and giveyour dreams everything you got. Stop seeing it as work ahead of you, it is only growth ahead of you. There's only strength that can be had.That's it You can only go up from here and the growth is neededto be where you want to be. I want you to tell yourself right now that you don't need permissionto pursue your dreams. Not my permission,not your family's permission not loved ones, not any experts,gurus or anybody else. You've never needed anyone elsespermission to tap into your greatness. 

The only kind of success that matters is the kind that lasts. if you achieve success only to have it slipthrough your fingers all you have then is disappointment. Understand that you can't changewhat you've done wrong, but you can change your perception of it and that's what's going tohelp you move that inch. So in order to succeedtake your life to that next level. You've got to get to the point where your dreams become more importantthan anyone and everything else You've done all the hardwork, think about that. You've done all the hardwork to get to the bottom. 

You've now learned the lessons. You've taken ownership, responsibility ofthe situation and everything you've done. You're now being forced tocreate a balanced perspective of every single thing that you've done and rather than have guilt and shame that you are where you are and allthe things that you've done wrong create the balanced perspective.

 It's neither good nor bad. It's neither positive nor negative. It is mutual. and you'll be turningall that stress into strength. Your purpose is moreimportant than your girlfriend or your boyfriend's opinions. your purpose is more important thanyour mother or your father's opinions. Your purpose goes waybeyond anybody's perception of who you areand what you are capable of. You've created the mental spacefor forward thinking and you can identifythe immediate action in order to feel yourselfabout to move that inch. Accept it, be satisfied with it. You've wasted enough time. You've wasted enough money. You've done enough of everything thathas kept you back from your greatness. Now is your moment to doeverything that pushes you closer toward your dreams.
