Every time you spend one more hour scrolling through Instagram every time you hit snooze on your alarm and go back to sleep you are not just wasting time you are destroying pieces of your life because your time is your life you don't feel it today but slowly life is moving every second is going away you're getting older your energy is going down your parents are getting older your dreams are waiting but for how long let me ask you what did you do yesterday what did you do the day before and what are you planning to do tomorrow still nothing still the same still waiting for someday that someday will never come it's a lie your dreams don't care about your excuses the world doesn't care about your reasons only your results matter solution: Start valuing your hours like gold write down your daily plan focus on one thing that will push your life forward cut one hour of social media every day use it to read learn or grow time is your friend only if you respect it otherwise it becomes your biggest enemy lesson two stop blaming and start building your life is your responsibility not your parents not your friends not your boss not your government you only you people waste years crying about what they didn't get i didn't go to a good school my family doesn't support me i don't have the money i don't have time i don't have talent excuses excuses excuses do you know who wins in life the person who says "I don't care what I didn't get i'll create something from nothing." Look around you the most powerful people in this world many of them had nothing no money no support no guidance but they had one thing hunger fire the decision to change everything example think about someone like Oprah Winfrey born in poverty abused as a child today a billionaire and one of the most respected people in the world she didn't sit and cry she didn't blame she built solution accept your story but don't be a victim say this every day i'm responsible for my life write your problems on paper then write one solution for each and take action no matter how small you are not weak you are not unlucky you are just not using your power lesson three your comfort zone is a trap escape it now you wake up check your phone eat something watch videos scroll Instagram maybe study a little sleep again repeat it feels easy it feels relaxing but do you know what's happening you are dying slowly from the inside your comfort zone is killing your dreams silently because there is no growth in comfort all success lives outside of it you want to speak fluent English then speak even if you make 100 mistakes you want to start a business then start even if you fail the first 10 times but most people never start why because they're scared to feel uncomfortable they're afraid of failure afraid of embarrassment afraid of people laughing let them laugh let them doubt you but you keep moving example imagine a seed if it stays under the soil it never becomes a tree it has to break through the ground face the sun face the wind only then it becomes something powerful you're the same solution: Do something uncomfortable every day speak English even if you're scared join that class apply for that job post that video fail proudly fail loudly but fail forward because nothing great ever came from staying safe lesson four I'll do it later is the biggest lie you're telling yourself let me be brutally honest with you if you are someone who keeps saying I'll do it later then understand this truth you are lying to yourself and the more you lie the more you destroy your own life quietly slowly and permanently i'll do it later is the voice of laziness it is the voice of fear it is the voice of your weaker self trying to trap you it doesn't mean I will do it later it actually means I don't want to do it at all look around you the people who win in life are not the ones who say later they are the ones who say now right now this second they act even if they're not ready even if they're scared they act because they know later becomes never you keep saying you want to learn English then do it now you keep saying you'll exercise start a side hustle read a book fix your sleep meditate and when does that later come next week next month next year time is not your slave it doesn't wait for you you don't get a message saying your time is over it just ends and you will be left with one thing regret the worst pain in this world example you wanted to start that YouTube channel 2 years ago you didn't why because of fear because you said later now someone else is doing it someone else has your dream and you sit there watching their videos thinking that could have been me solution: set a timer 10 minutes whatever it is start it now stop overthinking tell yourself this if I don't do it now I probably never will and just begin not perfect just begin one action now is better than 100 perfect plans for later lesson five stop thinking start doing your mind is your best friend and your worst enemy and for most people today their mind is their cage why because they think too much and do nothing you want to start a business you think about it for months you want to speak in English you think about speaking watch videos take notes but never speak you want to go to the gym you plan the routine buy the clothes download the app but never actually go overthinking is destroying your life you think so much that you become tired before even starting you imagine the failure before even trying you write the story of defeat before even playing the game and that's why you stay stuck thinking is important but only for a short time after that it becomes fear and fear is a liar you don't need to know everything to begin you just need to begin you want to improve your English don't just watch motivational videos start speaking start writing start listening every day speak in front of the mirror record your voice make mistakes you don't need permission you don't need perfect English you just need to do example imagine a guy who wants to learn swimming he reads books on swimming watches 50 videos buys the best swimsuit and talks to swimmers but never jumps into the water will he ever learn no you're doing the same with your dreams solution: Think for 10 minutes then act for the next 10 hours build momentum let action become your habit shut down your mind and let your hands move let your legs move let your life move because success doesn't come from thinking it comes from doing lesson six be that guy not the lazy one not the one who complains not the one who always gives up be the guy who does what others don't be the guy who wakes up early when others are sleeping who studies when others are partying who speaks when others are scared who believes when others laugh who keeps going when others quit be the guy who inspires without saying a word not everyone will believe in you that's okay not everyone will support you that's okay you support you you believe in you people will doubt you they will say you've changed let them you're not here to stay the same you're here to grow to evolve to become the man who doesn't need validation because his success speaks for him in every family in every group of friends there's always that one person who becomes something big the one who proves everyone wrong why not you why do you think success belongs to someone else why not you be that guy solution every morning ask yourself what would a disciplined man do today then do that dress like success talk like success walk like success don't tell people your plans show them results be that guy who people talk about years later because you changed everything lesson seven you versus you your biggest enemy is not outside it's not your friend not your family not your job not your phone it's you it's the part of you that tells you to quit the part that says "I'm tired." The part that says "It's okay to be average." The part that says "Let's just relax." That version of you is the enemy and you have to fight him every single day you versus you that is the real battle the lazy you versus the ambitious you the scared you versus the brave you the sleepy you versus the hungry you the version of you that wants to stay safe versus the version of you that wants to change the world every day you wake up with a choice who will win today will it be the guy who scrolls for 3 hours or the guy who reads 10 pages of a book will it be the guy who sleeps at 2 a.m watching useless videos or the guy who builds his business and future no one can answer that but you imagine two wolves inside you one is lazy negative full of doubt the other is strong confident hungry do you know which one grows stronger the one you feed solution: Kill your lazy habits track your day every time you choose growth write it down every time you win against the weak version of you celebrate it slowly your identity will change this is not a game this is war and it's you versus you lesson eight work on your willpower if you don't train your willpower your feelings will control your life and let me tell you something feelings are liars you don't feel like waking up early you don't feel like working out you don't feel like studying English today you don't feel like chasing your dreams then congratulations you've just handed your entire future to your mood let me ask you something real do you want to build a strong life or do you want to follow your feelings like a little child willpower means doing the right thing even when you don't feel like doing it even when your body says no you stand up and say yes even when your mind screams "I can't." Your soul whispers "Watch me." People who succeed in life aren't the ones who are always motivated they're the ones who are disciplined who show up even when they're tired broke heartbroken scared or defeated because they have something you don't have yet willpower and the truth is willpower is like a muscle the more you train it the stronger it gets let's say you want to stop using your phone after 1000 p.m at first you'll fail you'll open it you'll scroll but if you keep trying every night turning it off putting it in another room writing your goal down you will build that power soon you'll become the guy who controls his habits not the guy controlled by them solution: Start small choose one thing you don't want to do and do it anyway build daily discipline reward yourself for completing it not for avoiding pain speak to yourself like a leader i don't break promises to myself because the day you master your willpower is the day you take control of your life lesson nine comparison is killing you let me say this clearly if you keep comparing yourself to others you will never be happy never do you know why most people hate their lives because they spend more time watching other people's lives than building their own you go on Instagram you see someone with a better body a better car a better house you see someone speaking better English getting more views more likes more money and you start hating yourself you start thinking "What's wrong with me why can't I be like them why is their life perfect and mine a mess but here's the truth you are comparing your behind the scenes with their highlight reel you see 15 seconds of their life and compare it with your 24 hours you don't see their breakdowns their pain their loneliness their failures you don't see the 100 nights they cried or the 1,000 times they fell and still you let comparison destroy your confidence let me tell you something raw the fastest way to kill your progress is to compare it with someone else's success you have your own path your own time your own struggles your own destiny if a sunflower and a rose start comparing their heights and colors they'll both forget how beautiful they are stop looking left and right look straight your race is with yourself solution: Unfollow people who make you feel like you're not enough focus on your journey track your growth from last month not someone else's today replace comparison with inspiration learn from them but don't hate yourself because you were never born to be like them you were born to be better than who you were yesterday lesson 10 don't take advice from those who haven't done it not everyone giving advice is qualified to speak if you want to build a house you don't ask the man who lives under a broken roof if you want to learn how to get rich don't ask your broke friend if you want to speak fluent English don't ask the one who's scared to open his mouth ask the one who has done it who has lived it who has failed and then won the internet is full of people talking but most of them are just noise words with no experience opinions with no pain don't let these people confuse your journey you are the driver of your life don't take directions from someone who's never driven for example your uncle says "Don't start a business it's risky." But has he ever started one no he's worked a 9 to5 his whole life so why would you listen to someone who has never walked the path solution: Ask yourself has this person achieved what I want if yes listen carefully if not thank them and move on don't be rude but don't be stupid either protect your vision because one wrong piece of advice from the wrong person can delay your dream by 10 years lesson 11 pick yourself this world won't pick you they won't clap for you until it's too late they won't believe in you until you've already made it they won't support you when you need them the most so what should you do pick yourself stop waiting for permission stop waiting for someone to say you're good enough stop waiting for a phone call a message a chance a stage a partner a lucky break pick yourself because you are not here to be chosen you are here to create to lead to win the most successful people in the world they didn't wait they started they didn't beg for approval they approved themselves jk Rowling got rejected 12 times before Harry Potter was published what if she waited for someone to believe in her she picked herself and the world followed solution: Write your own name on the opportunity start that YouTube channel start that book start that podcast apply even if you don't feel ready tell yourself "I don't need anyone to pick me i pick myself every single day." Because the world can't ignore someone who believes in themselves so hard it becomes impossible not to notice lesson 12 no risk no story you want a story worth telling then understand this truth you don't get greatness without risk no successful life is built in the comfort zone no powerful man became powerful by playing it safe you will never build a legendary life by acting like everyone else every person you admire every champion every billionaire every inspiration they all had to risk something their money their time their comfort their safety their peace and many times they risk their heart but guess what without risk your life becomes quiet silent predictable safe and empty because at the end of your life no one will remember how safe you played it they'll remember what you created what you dared what you built example you're scared to start speaking English in front of people because they might laugh so you never speak and years go by and you still don't speak but what if you spoke up once and changed your life what if one moment of courage could give you 10 years of reward solution: Take one risk today talk apply post build message ask yourself what's the worst that could happen then ask yourself what if it actually works because without risk there is no adventure no fire no growth no story so stop hiding be the one who dared be the one who jumped be the one with the scars not the one with regrets 13 the clock is ticking and it doesn't care if you're not ready let me say it loud and clear time isn't waiting for you the clock isn't slowing down because you're tired it's not stopping because you're confused or scared or waiting for the right moment life is running every second that slips from your hand is a second you'll never get back and the worst part you won't even realize how much time you've lost until one day you wake up 10 years older standing in front of the mirror with tears in your eyes asking "What the hell happened to my dreams you're not too young you're not too old you're not too busy you're just making excuses." Let me ask you something when are you finally going to stop watching others win and start creating your own life are you going to let your dreams rot inside your mind until they die in silence or are you going to stand up face the mirror and say "No more time wasting i'm going to become the person I was born to be." Do you know what's scarier than failure regret that pain will stay in your chest like a sharp knife forever so listen to me carefully stop acting like you have forever you don't the clock is ticking and your time is now 14 nobody cares and that's your greatest power this might hit you hard but you need to hear it nobody cares about your problems nobody's coming to save you nobody feels your pain the way you do you're waiting for sympathy forget it people are too busy fighting their own battles they'll listen to you for a few seconds nod their heads and move on that's the truth but here's the twist that truth is your power because if nobody cares then you are free to do whatever the hell you want you are free to fail to try again to look stupid to fall and rise again you don't need approval you don't need permission you only need one thing yourself you want to cry cry but don't sit there wipe your tears clench your fists and rise like a warrior use that pain convert it into purpose take that loneliness and turn it into power nobody cares but you care and that's what matters so build your life like nobody's watching because guess what they're not 15 why not now people always say "I'll start from next week next month next year." But let me ask you something what's going to change between now and then will you suddenly become more motivated will life become easier will fear disappear no the truth is if you can't start now you probably won't start ever you keep waiting for the perfect time but let me tell you there is no perfect time life is always messy your mind will always find a reason to delay but every second you wait your dreams fade just a little bit more imagine your goals slowly turning into dust just because you were waiting the world doesn't wait opportunities don't wait time doesn't wait so why are you you want to start your fitness journey start now you want to learn English start now you want to change your life start now not next Monday not next new year now because if you can take one small step right now just one that could be the beginning of a whole new life so tell me why not now give me one solid reason and you won't find any start now 16 if you don't like your life create a new version look around is this the life you wanted are you waking up with fire in your chest or are you dragging your feet every day pretending to be happy while dying inside be honest you hate your routine your job your habits your energy but you're still doing the same thing every day and expecting it to change that's insanity here's the truth you are the creator of your life you're not a tree you're not stuck you can move you can evolve you can rebuild if the life you're living feels fake then burn it to the ground and start again change your hair change your habits change your friends change your environment change the way you think stop copying what everyone else is doing and start building your version of life you don't need to wait for a breakdown you don't need to wait for rock bottom you just need to decide right now you are not a victim you are an artist life is your canvas create your new version make it powerful make it beautiful make it unforgettable 17 expectations the prison of dreams let me tell you about my friend Nick he's one of the smartest people I know good in studies good in speaking always had big dreams but guess what he's stuck in a 9 to-ive job he hates he wakes up tired goes to bed frustrated every day feels like a copy of the last one he told me "Bro this isn't what I wanted." I asked him "Then why are you doing it?" And he said "Because it's what my family expects because society expects it because people will laugh if I leave." Let me say it straight expectations will kill your spirit people will put a box around your life and say "Stay here don't dream too big don't try something new be safe." But here's the truth their expectations are not your destiny if you live your life just to make others happy you'll end up hating yourself you'll smile in public and cry in your room you'll feel like a prisoner inside your own body is that the life you want you are not born to fulfill someone else's dream you are born to chase your dream and sometimes that means disappointing others sometimes that means saying no sometimes that means walking alone so break the chains drop the mask stop living for others and start living for you this is your life not your parents not your relatives not societies yours 18 your pain is your power only if you stop hiding it you've been through things maybe you never told anyone maybe you cry in silence maybe people don't know how much you suffer inside your mind maybe you were betrayed maybe you failed maybe they laughed at you rejected you ignored you and now you walk around with this heavy heart pretending everything is okay but it's not you know it i know it let me tell you something that pain inside you it can destroy you or it can build you you decide you see most people run from pain they avoid it they hide it under fake smiles and distractions but the strongest people in the world they use it they take that pain and use it as fuel they say "You know what that suffering made me tougher that heartbreak taught me selfrespect that failure taught me to grow don't be ashamed of your pain be proud of it you survived you're still breathing that means you're stronger than whatever tried to break you turn your pain into art into discipline into motivation into a voice that tells you i will never let anyone make me feel like I'm nothing ever again you're not broken you're just being rebuilt into something powerful remember this the darkest nights produce the brightest stars let the pain sharpen you not silence you 19 starve your distractions feed your focus right now there are two wolves living inside your mind one is called distraction the other is called focus the one who wins is the one you feed more every time you scroll for hours on your phone gossip overthink binge watch for no reason you're feeding the distraction and the more you feed it the weaker your dreams become your brain becomes lazy your motivation fades you start believing lies like "I'll do it tomorrow or it's too late now." But let me ask you something how long will you keep betraying your own future just for a little comfort today you want success you want to become someone your younger self can be proud of then starve those distractions turn your phone off cut toxic people out say no to every useless invitation set boundaries like a warrior and then sit down and feed your focus read work learn building fail try again focus is not natural it's trained like a muscle the more you use it the stronger it becomes imagine this if you give your full focus for just one year 365 days of pure effort your life will look nothing like it does today that's not magic that's mathematics that's discipline that's real starve the wolf that destroys you feed the one that builds you that's how you win 20 life doesn't owe you anything so fight for everything let me say it in the rawest harshest way possible the world doesn't care about your potential it only rewards your performance you might be a good person you might have a big heart you might have dreams but if you're not working if you're not showing up if you're not proving your worth life will ignore you that's the truth you want success nobody's going to hand it to you there's no fairy coming no genie no perfect timing it's all on you you've got to stop crying for help and start fighting like hell stop waiting for someone to believe in you and start becoming someone you believe in that hunger that fire that rage to rise it has to come from inside nobody is going to feel it for you yes life is unfair yes you'll have to suffer more than others yes some people are more privileged but so what are you just going to sit there and complain or are you going to stand up and say "I don't care how hard it gets i will make it happen." This life is not a gift it's a battlefield you're either fighting or you're dying slowly so wake up every day with this mindset life doesn't owe me a damn thing but I will still take everything I deserve i'll work harder i'll suffer more i'll show up earlier i'll keep going when everyone quits and one day when they ask me "How did you do it?" I'll smile and say i stopped expecting life to be easy and I started demanding more from myself you want a crown then earn it with blood sweat and obsession that's the price pay it now listen to me maybe you're watching this right now and deep inside you're struggling maybe it's not just one thing maybe everything feels heavy your money is low your mind is tired your health is not okay your relationships are falling apart and you're just trying to survive maybe nobody knows how much you're hurting maybe you're pretending to smile outside but crying every night inside your heart maybe you feel like you've failed like nothing is working you're thinking "When will things get better?" Let me say this to you as your big brother as someone who's walked through fire and seen others rise from their ashes everything will be okay i'm not saying that to give you fake hope i'm saying that because I've seen it there is always always a light at the end of the tunnel it may be a long tunnel it may be dark it may feel endless but there is light you just can't stop walking no matter how broken you feel no matter how long it takes you are not finished yet there's more to your story more to your future more inside you than you've ever imagined your worst days are not the end they are the beginning of a stronger smarter more powerful version of you and I want you to hear me now if you don't have a dream find one you don't need a perfect plan you just need a dream that makes you feel alive a reason to wake up something to fight for once you have that dream protect it chase it build it with your bare hands learn every day grow every day work hard even when nobody claps for you be obsessed with knowledge with discipline with your mission don't waste time thinking about what's wrong with the world focus on what's right inside you and never forget this you have no idea what you're capable of you think you're weak you're not you think you're behind you're just warming up you think it's too late it's not you think nobody believes in you i believe in you you're powerful beyond your imagination you are not just a human being you are a storm waiting to rise and when you finally do the world will watch you in shock and say "Where did this person come from?" And you'll say "I came from the fire i came from pain i came from rock bottom and I made it." So now pick up your heart fix your posture clean your tears and start walking again because your future is waiting your greatness is waiting your dream is waiting and it's time to go get it thanks for watching this video take action today not tomorrow see you in the next one stay strong
