Transform your life

you need to live like God is always

watching you may have the opportunity to

do something bad or you may have the

opportunity to steal some money or snake

somebody but in the end you're going to

pay for that and the bill will be paid I

think if you do the right thing in my

experience if you're a person who does

the right thing firm handshake is on

time doesn't lie to anybody does what

he's supposed to do is honest with a

good heart is genuinely polite to

everyone he meets if you are that person

you get very far in life I have yet to

meet people who just do all the simple

things right who completely fail at life

but I've met a lot of people who snake

or steal some money and they get really

rich and they lose it all or they get

rich and end up a gambling addict or

depressed or Etc so you have to just

understand that God is always watching

he's going to reward you in the end

that's the first thing and the second

thing I will say is that you are the sum

of The Five People You spend the most

time with and you need to create your

reality I think the biggest problem with

young people today is that they don't

create the realities heavily enough the

people that they want to spend most time

with aren't adding any value to their

lives and then they end up wondering why

they don't get it when I tell people

that you're the sum of The Five People

You spend the most time with everyone

agrees they go yeah that's probably true

and people The Five People You spend the

most time with that's what you're gonna

end up like they say yeah that's true

and then they continue to hang around

with people who they don't want to be

why you have there has to be a point

there has to be a point where you sit

and go okay you're my friends etc etc I

love you guys yeah we can talk whatever

but I'm on a different life path you

have to leave some people behind if you

were to come hang out with me and you

were in a room with me and my five

friends you'd feel you'd feel

self-conscious you're right you don't

feel sorry with your friends if you were

to come hang around with me and my crew

you would be self-conscious and that

self-consciousness would motivate you or

they would certainly instill the

discipline required for you to change

you don't feel self-conscious amongst

your peers that's why you don't change

if you were to get in a room and you're

the only person who ain't a

monster you'd want to become a monster

walk through life and feel like you have

nothing

if you wake up each day and go I don't

owe anybody anything I don't have to

prove anything to anybody then you are a

loser because you are absolutely not the

incorrect you must prove yourself to

other people you must prove yourself to

your bloodline you must prove yourself

to God God hates the lazy you can't

stand them if he gives you all these

genetic dispositions and these natural

god-given gifts if you have two arms and

two legs and you can think and you're

not trying your absolute best that's the

reason you're not lucky he doesn't like

you he likes the people which show him

the beauty of his own creation he likes

to give somebody building blocks in them

to build something amazing the best

thing about being a man you have to

build who you are God loves to see that

those people for some reason seem to be

enormously lucky right the person who

goes I don't have to prove anything to

God I don't owe all of my ancestors any

effort you know for 5 000 years people

were dodging saber-tooth tigers and

catching the plague and running from

Genghis Khan just for my stupid to be

born I don't owe them anything don't owe

them a thing because I want to play

video games these people

you should walk through Earth with Force

inside of you if I walk as I walk into

this hotel

everybody

not because they know who I am but

because as I move even if even if it's

behind their head people feel something

it's it's an energy that comes from

brutal competence that's what happens

when a predator walks in a room you pay

attention next time in a restaurant if a

man who's truly dangerous walks in

nearly every other man kind of looks up

at the same time feel it need to or you

don't survive we've evolved with that to

live

that's who I am I couldn't imagine not

being that man

I've done that because I've been trying

to prove myself to my lineage my entire

life

I wake up every day with something

different I have hundreds of millions of

dollars

I wake up more

I'm in fantastic shape four times world

champion fighting The Matrix out here by

myself more I will have to be braver I

must try harder I all I do is prove

myself so when I hear people go I don't

I have nothing to prove then you're a

loser peasants have never felt like they

needed to prove anything but Kings felt

like they needed to go and Conquer land

isn't that it's coincidental that the

king who already had it all felt like he

needed to go to some far-flung land and

Conquer and take it and prove he's the

king but the peasants

nothing nobody you're you're a loser

then you're a dummy I absolutely and

utterly completely have everything to

prove to everybody all the time that's

who I am I will prove anything to

anybody if I sit and say x I will prove

it to anyone I can be checked anytime

and our ancestors who fought in

saber-toothed tigers or escaped the

Mongol hordes or managed to dodge bombs

in the second world war all they went

through just for this to be born

and to look at him look at who he is

listen to his life story listen to what

he does on a day-to-day basis and they

would feel nothing but shame your

ancestors did all that all that

struggling to survive hunting hunting

and Gathering avoiding enemies anything

it took dying at age 30 from a tooth

infection all the crap they went through

just for you to be born so you could

smoke weed and jack off that's what your

ancestors died for that's what they were

no hard for

that's who you are that's the end of

your bloodline

do you feel no shame

it's shameful

my ancestors will look at me and think

everything we went through was

worth it

your ancestors will look at most these

people they're asked us to look at them

and feel nothing but disgust

well I guarantee even their living

relatives their living parents aren't

even proud of them

your own father's ashamed of you and you

don't even feel motivated to do

it's a shame if you were to go and look

your father in the eye and said you know

what I could have been a I could

have been a UFC champion I could have

been a multi-millionaire could be a race

car driver could have been a nuclear

physicist because on all these things

but I was busy on

you think he's gonna be proud of you

no

no

and there's men here who'll deny it

right because then he'll go no no no no

no but those are the ones who are most

lost

and they should look in the mirror look

deep in their own eyes and say yes I'm

disgusting I can change this

that's the beauty about being a man if

you're disgusting you can change it

that's the beauty there's nothing

stopping you changing it you're right

you must accept it you must accept it

first most of these people what they do

is they hang around with other

disgusting people and then their little

group of disgusting people they think

well I'm not disgusting everyone's

disgusting and this is normal it's

normal to be a off

not in my world it isn't

it's not it's not it's not normal to be

a jerk off in my world

it's the things it's the denial that's

going to hold you back the most the

people who go yes I'm wasting my

potential those are the ones who have

potential the ones who stand up and go I

am wasting my potential I could be

anything and I am not that yet they have

a chance The Men Who go well no actually

I'm fine they're

they're inside the Matrix fully slave

minded they're a wasted time but if you

sit there and go you know what yeah I am

wasting my potential yes I can be more

than I am even if I'm already great I

can be better

as good as I am I still I still push

myself to the Limit every single day I

have every single thing a man could

possibly want I'm still pushing myself

this is your prerogative as a man but

you need to be instilled with a sense of

duty duty to your bloodline you must

want it you need to want it deep inside

your soul I can't die as anything less

than emperor

it's my destiny there are duties that

men must fulfill whether to God or to

your bloodline

if I feel extremely happy and excited

I'm going to use that as motivation or

energy to do amazing things and do good

and work hard if I feel absolutely

depressed and distraught I'm going to

use that as endless energy and

motivation to do amazing things and work

hard it doesn't matter what you give me

energy cannot be destroyed it can only

be converted and transferred it doesn't

matter what fuel you give me if you give

me diesel petrol kerosene vodka doesn't

matter what you put inside of my end

hard work is going to come out

absolutely that's all I know how to do

making the best move on the chess board

regardless of how losing your position

is it's a life philosophy that most will

never understand sometimes you look at

your position on the board and you're

but still regardless of how you are

there is still a best move

there's always a best move in a worse

move no matter how bad things are

many people when they get to a losing

position think ah it doesn't matter I'd

have to make the best move anymore I

actually disagree

maybe nine times out of ten the best

move won't save you but that one time

out of ten the best move might be just

enough to save your eyes on a long

enough time frame if you play the game

repeatedly day after day taking risks

always making the best move regardless

of whether you're winning or losing or

compound into an upward spiral of

never-ending success you might end up

somewhere near me

you might have dinner one day you might

stop being a Brokey am I stopping a

loser

if your girl leaves you

the best move on the board

perhaps is to go to the gym perhaps just

to send our flowers perhaps it's to

never text her again but you should make

the best move on the board regardless

even if you don't want her back you

should still make investment you should

always think that way what move will

give me the best possible strategic

position that's how you think

that's how I think

best move on the board is how you should

approach your life next time you're in a

situation you should sit and say okay

this is a bad situation

what's the best move I could possibly

make what's the outcome I would like

what's the most likely move to give me

that particular out

and you'll be surprised what some of

them are I had a guy email me the other

day so he lost his job

he was the worst salesman

well then you deserve to lose your job

that's how sales works it's Fierce well

I don't know what should I do I said

what's the best move on the board he

goes well I really want the sales room I

think I can get good at it I said well

then work for free

did you have another job yet he said no

okay while you're applying for other

jobs instead of sitting around on your

home keep working for free for the

company for two or three weeks see if

you can turn it around

and he tried that and he couldn't

because he sales but the point is

if you decide at home doing nothing it

wouldn't have helped him the best move

on the board was to try and prove to his

company that he's actually worth

something if he was worth something in

those two or three weeks he might turn

around and got his job back you still

got to apply for new jobs they didn't

lose anything best move on the chess

board that's how I want you to approach

your life ladies and gentlemen it's the

mental model in which you should apply

to scenarios

to introduce

what is the best possible action

because if you're always making the best

very rarely making the worst

it's pretty hard to lose it's player

versus player out here the world is

about Winners and loses and everyone is

competing against each other you are

competing against me I'm competing

against you you're competing against

your friend

you and you're gonna be against your

enemies you want a dollar so does

everyone else you want that hot girl so

does everyone else you want the house so

does someone else what's amazing is the

things you want main reason you want

them is because other people want them

so you can show off that you have it and

they don't it is competition

kind of like the age-old adage the

tiger's chasing 10 people you don't have

to be the fastest you just have to be

faster than the slowest guy is he spot

so considering that a lot of people are

constantly making the wrong moves if you

can just start to make the Right Moves

most of the time

you'll see exactly how easy life can be

I don't even want your energy around me

because quitters are the worst people on

the planet you can give a quitter

absolutely everything and they will

still fail you can give it doesn't

matter what it is if you go to Ikea and

buy a flat pack and table put it in

front of a quitter you will never have a

table he'll look at it it's long it'll

quit quitters can have every single

Advantage quitters can have all the

information where it's gonna have all

the tutelage quitters can have a

mentorship queer is gonna have someone

who messages them every morning hey bro

let's get it and guess what they're

gonna do at the end quit they ain't

never gonna have so if you're a quitter

I don't even want you even inside my

organization I don't want queering near

me because you're never going to be

successful people say hey man you need

to find your way you're passionate about

and do that and what they're trying to

say is only do what you like because you

have no motivation to do anything else

well I'm going to sit here and once

again explain to you how different the

world is when you have a mind which

isn't warped and affected easily by

outside influences you are never going

to become a robot this is nothing to do

with not feeling emotions it's nothing

to do with just becoming an empty

emotionless void of a person that's not

what this is this is about understanding

that you're a human being you're going

to feel emotions this is a beautiful

thing and making sure that you use them

in the correct way

A and B you do not ever let them stop

you doing what you're supposed to do I

say to people often I haven't felt like

going to the gym in two years I'm

wearing my gym clothes right now I just

finished training I haven't felt like

training in two years I after 10 years

of professional fighting after giving my

life to exercise genuinely I have not

woke up and felt like oh I really want

to train I haven't felt that way in a

long time that's why I retired from

fighting but I have still gone and I

have still trained regardless of how I

feel

so this is one of the tenants and

there's going to be a lot of things

you're going to learn of an iron mindset

it's the ability to not let your

feelings affect you and sometimes to do

the complete opposite of how you feel

because you're not going to very often

feel like working hard you're not going

to always feel like doing the right

thing you're not always going to be

motivated the idea that you need to be

constantly motivated shows how weak your

mindset is I don't need motivation to go

to the gym I cannot want to go with

every fiber of my being I will still be

there because I use my cerebral ability

I use my mind and I logically decide

what I'm going to do with my day

regardless of how I feel regardless of

whether I'm motivated or not because

that's all life is and that's all the

world is life is just getting things

done doing the right things doing the

important things making sure they're

done efficiently and thoroughly so you

live the best possible life it's as

simple as that it's not particularly

complicated I'm not gonna be and I don't

want to be one of those guys who's like

motivation inspirational that I've never

been one of them people I don't believe

in motivation inspiration I don't

believe in that crap I don't believe

that you need motivation to get things

done I'm not going to sit here and just

talk a whole bunch of motivational

things to make you feel good what I'm

going to do is I'm going to tell you the

things I always did that allowed me to

put together the mindset I currently

have so

if you look at any story literally any

story with a hero in it they all have

one thing in common and that thing is

that there's always a villain you cannot

have a hero without a villain it doesn't

matter you can think of any superhero

any comic book any any book you can

think of any movie there's always a good

guy and there's a bad guy so for the

good guy to exist there has to be a bad

guy there's no other way for the duality

of the universe to continue without this

basic tent so you want to be the good

guy in your story you want and in every

I've said this before actually as a man

life is going to be difficult it's more

difficult than being a woman it's more

difficult than anything else so it's

very easy to see yourself life is

actually easier as a whole if you see

yourself as a hero because in every

single hero story the hero suffers he

has a hard time and if you understand

that you're suffering because you're a

hero then the suffering begins to make

sense so you can be sitting here right

now going my woman doesn't respect me I

have no money in the bank this is

difficult I'm struggling here I'm

struggling there you can feel sorry for

yourself or you can say yeah my woman

doesn't respect me I'm struggling I

can't make money you know what that's

that's because I'm a superhero

and my life's gonna be hard because I'm

a man and as a hero it's going to be

difficult these are the tests and the

trials and tribulations I have to go

through to become someone every single

male superhero went through a whole ton

of

before he became superhero you've seen

the Batman movies he was his parents

died he was he was locked up in jail all

these bad things happen and then they

emerge as the hero and this is done for

a reason because it's the reality of

life especially as a man so right now

you have to understand that you're the

hero in this movie and if you're

struggling you're struggling for a very

important reason and how you handle

these struggles and how you deal with

these struggles and to decide the kind

of person you're going to be afterwards

you're going to be a superhero or you're

going to succumb to them and you're

going to fail so be happy that you're

struggling because that's important it's

the first thing second thing is there

has to be a villain now most people

think their villain is someone else

they see this all the time the villain's

the opposite the hero so if you're

sitting at home and you haven't got much

money and you're and you're broke and

you're pissed off and you're depressed

and you look at me and I have four

supercars and all these girls I'm

traveling the world I Go Everywhere I

want you may think I'm your villain

people look at other people and say now

that guy has this this guy has this and

they become envious they think that's

the villain that's not true that's not

the case because every single person

that has different circumstances there

are things you have that I don't have

and the things I have that you don't

have so I may have had a genetic gift

over you for example because I'm a

fantastic kickboxer but you may have

been born more wealthy than me I was

born a very very poor family so I had

advantages and disadvantages you had

advantages and disadvantages so

comparing yourself to other people is

asinine and it's a name because it's not

a level Fair playing Ground there are

some people who are born to millionaire

parents who are gorgeous model good

looking and have six packs without

trying some people are lucky like that

that's just how it is so comparing

yourself to these people is not going to

help you your villain is nobody else

your villain is someone you're going to

create and you're going to create your

villain because he's going to motivate

you to be the most powerful hero you can

possibly be so you're going to create

your villain and this is the task for

the first week this is a six-week

training course and over each week you

have a very important task and the task

for this week is to create your villain

to make sure that there was no

disadvantages involved your villain is

going to be a clone of you

but what your villain's gonna have is

he's going to have some things you don't

have

and your villain is going to be the

person who basically without requirement

for motivation without requirement

without being no matter how he feels

that day or how stressed he is from work

regardless of what happens to him your

villain is going to be the guy who

always does exactly what he wants to do

so your villain's gonna be the guy who

goes to the gym regardless of how he

feels

your villain's going to be the guy who

approaches every beautiful girl he ever

sees and says hey I really think you're

beautiful

your villain's gonna be the guy who asks

for a Razor your villain's going to be

the guy who does everything he wants

regardless of how he feels regardless if

he's not motivated or not regardless if

he's shy to talk that girl or people are

watching or his ankle hurts he doesn't

want to go to the gym whatever or his

bosses he thinks his boss is going to

fire him the villain is that dude who

does anything he wants to do you have to

sit and you have to make a list of all

the things you'd sit there and say if I

did everything I want to do if I were to

be the best version of myself possible

what would I do okay well I go to the

gym every day I get up at 6am and I go

to the gym every day you write that down

I'm feeling the kind of guy who reads

really important books I'm I say I don't

have time but my enemy this villain he

reads books he finds time he doesn't

watch TV ever he doesn't waste time ever

he doesn't eat junk food he reads books

writes it now you need to make a list

now this list at first should be easy

for you but then you're gonna get to

about seven or eight things you're gonna

stop no this list needs to be 25 to 30

points long minimum this guy you're

building your arch nemesis you have to

write down every single quality about

this guy what he does he goes to the gym

every day 6am he doesn't watch TV he

doesn't eat junk food he goes up to

beautiful girls etc etc 25 or 13 points

long because this is going to become

your enemy for the next six weeks to

dream

you want to become a hero you need

someone to battle against this is who

you're battling against you're battling

against a better version of yourself a

version of yourself that doesn't succumb

to how he feels but does what he's

supposed to do anyway so this is who

your villain is going to be and when

you're writing down this list

all the qualities your villain has

imagine what this person looks like you

have to put genuine effort into this you

have to imagine what he looks like

imagine how he walks imagine how he

talks imagine what people think when

they see him imagine how different you

would be if you had been going to the

gym every single day for an hour and a

half every single day for the last two

three four years imagine it imagine how

differently people would look at you

imagine how differently females would

treat you if you were a jack like that

guy would be you have to sit and you

have to put down all these qualities and

then once the qualities Are there 25 or

30 minimum then you have to imagine what

kind of person this is you have to

imagine what he looks like what he talks

like what he thinks like imagine how he

views the world because this is who

you're going to be battling against so

you have to put genuine effort into

constructing this person and

understanding this person

the reason I'm saying do this because

this is what motivates me every single

day

when I was training for a fight the

reason I'd always go train is because I

knew my enemy was trained but when I

stopped fighting professionally I

thought well what enemy do I have and I

realize I had to create my own

so when I don't feel like going

I imagine

I've built my own enemy I won't even

list all the things that Miami has he

has a whole bunch of I don't have and

he's a he would be an impossible nearly

impossible person to be but when I sit

and I don't feel like going to the gym I

know my enemy's training because he

trains no matter what regardless of how

he feels regardless if he's pissed off

or if there's traffic or it's raining or

he's tired my enemy trains when I see a

girl and she's beautiful but all her

friends are there I'm afraid to laugh at

me my enemy wouldn't give a you go

over there anyway that's who he is he's

the man so when I understood who I was

truly battling against and you have two

choices you either rise up to try and

take him on or you become a little

here's the choice do I want to lose to

this man this man I've created

and I've built do I want to lose to him

or do I want to beat him or compete with

him and you have to make a choice and

you sit there and go well I know that

the person I created in my mind my arch

nemesis would go over there and he'd

talk to all the girls I need two of them

let alone one

this is an extremely important facet and

for the next six weeks I'm gonna be

doing lots of things that are going to

revert back to the enemy that you've

created so you'd have to put genuine

effort into putting together this person

you have to imagine everything about

them from start to finish you have to

imagine standing next to them if you're

standing next to this guy right now with

no shirt on who would girls want to who

would people respect

and the crazy thing about all of this

is that this person is you

this person is you it's just you with a

little bit of a different path or a

different take on life it's you who's

the person who does whatever he's

supposed to do regardless of how he

feels it's you with an iron mind this is

the exact point the reason creating this

enemy is so important and the reason

viewing how he's viewing him and seeing

how he sees the world and and

understanding how important and Powerful

this person is is important is because

that person is you that person is you

who does what he's supposed to do

without fail that's all it is

and when you truly truly put this person

together and you truly truly understand

it and you find out what you could be

and you find out what you're battling

against you're going to become far more

difficult to demo

demo it's going to be much harder for

someone to say to you don't go to the

gym because you're going to know well my

my enemy this guy give him a name

whatever this dude's going to the gym

that's why he looks how he looks and

that's who I'm being compared to

so I have to go to the gym oh yeah but

you know I'm tired well you don't go

then my training Partners want to go

fine you don't go I am going

I'm not the guy who's gonna let this man

beat me and you have to start comparing

yourself to this guy in every single

facet I still do it to this day I

compare my bank balance to this guys and

he's killing me I compare my body to

this guys he's killing me I compare so

many things about myself you guys may

look at me and go I'll take millionaire

girls this that that I'm still comparing

myself to this person I've created

and I know that I'm losing

and that's what drives me forward that's

why I don't miss the gym that's how I

find a way to make money that's how I do

whatever it takes to succeed because I

know who I'm battling against most you

guys have no enemy you have no enemy or

you have an enemy which is somebody else

you look at a Justin Bieber or Drake or

something that that's not going to

motivate you that's pointless

[Music]

we'll say oh you're great just the way

you are you know you're beautiful just

the way you are and you're sitting there

and living in your comfort zone little

put this enemy together from start to

finish and truly put this list together

you truly create this person and truly

understand that it could be you

it's going to be far more difficult to

stop you doing what you need to do in

the future you can give a quitter

absolutely everything and they will

still fail you can give it doesn't

matter what it is if you go to Ikea and

buy a flat pack table and put it in

front of a queer you will never have a

table he'll look at it it's long and

he'll quit quitters can have every

single Advantage quitters can have all

the information queer is gonna have all

the tutelage quitter's gonna have a

mentorship queer is gonna have someone

who messages them every morning hey bro

let's get it and guess what they're

gonna do at the end quit they ain't

never gonna have

if you're a quitter I don't even want

you even inside my organization I don't

want quick review near me because you're

never going to be successful
