You know, life has a funny way of throwing us curveballs. Just when you think you can't go any further, it shows you that you got more left in the tank. My story?

Well let me tell you, it's a journey through the streets of life. But I didn't come this far to come this far. Those words, they're more than just a saying to me. They're a way of life. You see, life taught me a thing or two. It taught me that when you feel like you've hit rock bottom, when you think you have nothing left, that's when you got to dig a little deeper. There were times when I had nothing but the clothes on my back and an empty stomach.

but i never gave up i looked at the struggle in the eyes and said not today not tomorrow not ever if you want to achieve anything in life you got to put your feelings to the inside and grind if you want a better in life for you your family your children or anything else all of us have the power to transform our situation the proof is in the pudding

all you do is open up your phone and you will see millionaire after millionaire billionaire after billionaire shredded physique after shredded physique talking about how they change their lives by doing the work you can either choose to believe them and follow in the path or you can act like a victim and say they had it lucky or it's easier said than done stop being lazy there's no other way to put it there's no other way to explain it in order to see success you got to strap your shoes on your guy feet and start walking

Just talking and dreaming ain't going to get you there. Affirming that life ain't going to get you there. The work is going to get you there. Don't tell me you have a dream if you're not willing to wake up and chase it. Don't tell me you are going to do great things if you keep hitting the snooze button. You want to be the greatest. You want to be the inspiration. You are going to be

You want the world to know your name? Then get up and grind! You think any of the GOATS wanted to stay in bed for 5 more minutes? Stop being lazy and move on and be about your business. Be productive, be powerful, conduct your business. Life may knock you down, but life will not defeat you. I

will never give up and neither should you. I will never give up and neither will you. Cancer may come from me. Heart disease may have my name. My legs may give out, but you will never see me quit and neither will you. Even when I feel like quitting, I will never quit. I will find power. I will be strong.

I will lift my head up. I will push forward and so will you. I need you to be powerful today. I need you to keep lifting your head up. I need you to have it. I need you to be strong. I need you to walk through the fire. I need you to swim to the shore. You still got to keep pushing. You still got to keep working. It's not over yet. Don't give up now.

Don't quit on you. You better keep pushing. You better keep working. You better keep fighting. You have the power. You have the tenacity. You have the grit. This is that time. This is that hour. This is that moment. It's not over yet. So you still got work to do. Different scares people. And anytime anybody's told me I'm crazy, I've always thanked them for that.

Because it gave me the ability to see and do things that other people can't do. And acknowledge things that other people won't acknowledge. If you're obsessed with taking your business, your sport, whatever it is, to another level, stand up. You must be able to deal with pain. And the more understanding you have of what's causing you the pain and how you've dealt with it,

is going to determine how successful you will be in whatever you choose in life. It's on you. Your failure and your success is on you. I think the thing that people misunderstand about success is they're looking for the easiest way to get there. Look at the most successful people in the world. They're the most coachable.

They have the least amount of doubt. They have the least amount of doubt. You usually have doubt because of what somebody else is going to think of you. So there are people that aren't going to see your vision. People didn't see Jeff Bezos' vision. People don't see Elon Musk. People don't see Kobe and Jordan's vision. And that's okay, but you've got to be willing to see it in yourself. Everyone's going to hit adversity. It's how you deal with that adversity. And the key word is you. Not letting somebody else deal with that adversity.

You have to deal with that adversity and how you deal with it. Are you gonna fight through it or are you gonna curl up and just roll over into the corner? People talk about this all the time. Losing builds character. How much character do you need? Your dreams and thoughts better be so big that they better scare you. They better scare you. Because you're not thinking big enough that, you know what, it has to be something that nobody else has thought about before or done before.

The process it takes to be number one and stay number one, you have no idea. Very few people understand what winning and success does to an individual's mental health. Everybody wants to sit in your seat until they have to sit in your seat. But it takes a special individual, and there's very few people that can do that. We all have dreams. Dream home renovations. Dream vacations. Dream vacations.

We're sending our kids to their dream colleges, but finding straightforward ways to turn those dreams into realistic goals, that's where things get tricky. Merrill understands that. That's why, with a dedicated Merrill advisor, you get a personalized plan and a clear path forward. And having the bull at your back helps your whole financial life move with you.
