reclaim control over your life

Never accept the life that’s been given to you

Never accept the life that’s been given to you. If it’s something that you never like, I need you to change it and never accept the life that’s been given to you. If you think that it will never become who you were meant to be. 

You don’t have to accept a life that’s been given to you. So if you want to change it, you can actually change it. You don’t have to accept a life that’s been given to you when nobody wants to support you and then at standing up and clapping or they’re not hitting a share button or like button or a heart or dinner at motivating you to become. Or they’re not pushing you to become better. I’m telling you right now. You do not have to accept the life that’s been given to you. Because I did. 

You looking at a kid right now that I’m a published author? I don’t know what a published author looks like to you, but I never accepted the life that was given to me. 

Why am I telling you that because listen to me, they counted me out and the people that count me out. They couldn’t count. So I’m telling you that you never have to accept the life that’s been given to you. 

I’m a father. I’m a husband. I’m an author. I’m an entrepreneur and I did this with no blueprint and I did this with straight wheel and determination because I understood that listening in order for me to leave a legacy. There were some things that I had to change, there were some things that I needed to become, I had to cut out the excuses. So I’m telling you right now in order for you to be successful in life. I need you to 

Out of excuses. I need you to end it all no matter what it may look like. I need you to stop it right now. Because if you continue to come up with excuses throughout life, you’ll never get to the level that you need to and you will always stay in your comfort zone. It’s a beautiful place but nothing grows there. 

And you got to take advantage of the opportunity in this lifetime because if you never take advantage of the opportunity, you’ll continue to make excuses. You’ll continue to be who people always said that you would be so I need you to block out the haters. 

I need you to block out the lies. I need you to block out the people that don’t support you. I need you to block it all out. No matter what it may look like because you understand this God gave you the vision. He didn’t give it to them. So when they don’t see your 

So, I need you to understand that listen he gave to me. 

So I’m locked in and I’m focused no matter what it may look like no matter what you may say no matter what type of opposition that comes my way. I need you to understand that no matter what it is, know what level or whatever level you may get to in life, understand your purpose and understand that he gave you the vision, so I need you to walk it out. Because we know that was easy. 

Everybody would do it. But it’s not easy to understand your purpose. It’s not easy walking out your purpose. It’s not easy being successful. It’s not easy being an entrepreneur. It’s not easy being married. It’s not easy being a father. It’s not easy to be who you were meant to become, you think that don’t nobody understands what you’re going through. 

Or you think they can’t let anybody feel your pain, but what do you do you supposed to harp on it? Are you supposed to cry, are you supposed to make excuses? No, you’re supposed to sit right here and get down on your grind and stay locked in and stay focused no matter what it may look like no matter what they may do no matter what they may say because I’m telling you right now. It is me and you against the world no matter what we may face no matter what comes our way no matter what they say no matter what they do we can get it out the 

And we will become who we Meant to become because all we know is grind all we know is how to hustle. So it makes you appreciate it a little bit more. I get my motivation from my kids. I get my motivation from the people in the community. I get my motivation from the people that are going through pain and they quote the things that I say like, those are the real trophies for me. I don’t care about any of the money. I don’t care about the accolades, I care about the impact. 

And they said none of this would be possible. They said that none of this could happen because I wasn’t from that side of the Trap. I wasn’t from that side where they provided me with a silver spoon in my mouth. I wasn’t from that side where I grew up in a two-parent household. I wasn’t from this side where you had much support or love so the things, that I didn’t have I made sure that I became those things. 

Because I said the negativity stops with me. 

I looked at the opposition dead and its face and I told our position, that you’ll never be able to get my kids. I looked opposition in his face. And I said you’ll never be able to get my company. So I’m telling you right now. You never have to accept the life that’s been given to you. Because I didn’t. So I’m challenging you right now. Listen to me very closely. I’m challenging you right now that you do not have to accept the life that’s been given to you any time you faced opposition any time you faced any obstacle anytime. There’s a hurdle in your way. Listen, you can jump the hurdle. It may not move but you can jump through it and if you can’t jump then go around it any time you face any type of opposition. I’m telling you right now the person that’s on the inside of you needs to come out because the person is the person that’s on the 

Thought of you is bigger than any type of opposition that you face. I could have given up when my brother died. I could have given up when my cousin died. I could have given up when I lost my job. I could have given up when they told me Logan. You’ll never be anything like I could have given up when nobody wanted to clap for me and told me Logan goo will make it happen. And so I never made excuses. But I always made a grindcore. I always understood that there’s a person out there right now that’s successful in life. And hey, they put their pants on one leg at a time just like I do. 

Because we all got the same 24 hours. The problem is, do you know how to maximize it? Do you know how to use it? Because people that’s not successful. They don’t maximize their 24 hours. They sit behind them but they stay all on social media. They sit right here to judge you because you’re making it happen and they tell you that you can’t become anything or you’ll never be anything or that you think you all that or they think that you’ll never be able to be what you need to be. So I’m telling you right now. You don’t have to accept the life that’s been given to you. 

But what I do want you to do is I want you to put one foot in front of the other. I want you to stay locked in. I want you to stay focused. There were people that were before you that fought for you to have the opportunity that you have right now because they didn’t accept the life that was given to them. 

So why should you? Today is the day that you become who you are destined to be today is the day that you become the person that people said you would never be today is the day that you find your purpose and you start to project yourself forward as you become. The person that you were destined to be today is the day that comes hell or high water. You’ll come out swinging because your back is against the wall and you have no other choice but to move forward. 

You see him? The you that because that was the day that I found my purpose that was the day that I found my calling today is the day that you jump over the hurdle and that you choose to not allow fear to paralyze you because now is the time now is the opportunity for you to turn your dreams into a reality like never before because you can only do this. There isn’t anybody else that can do it; you have to believe in yourself. Do you have the ability to believe in yourself? Like never before? Do you have the ability to have the humility that when all the stars and all the things that are aligned in your favor? Can you be humble enough to step up to the challenge and not let the screams and the cheers get the best of you. 

Why am I telling you this? I’m telling you this because don’t let it get to you because there’s gonna be family and friends that are not going to support you. They’re going to be family and friends that are going to tell you that you cannot turn your dreams into a reality. They’re gonna be family and friends that they believe will listen if I just hang on your coattail just for enough time, or if I just hang on your coattail long enough that you will make it and I can always say that you will do it, but I never believed in you from the beginning. You see I’m talking to somebody because I got it out of the mud and I understand what it feels. Like I understand what it feels like to have those people that are two-faced. I understand what it feels like to have those people that tell you you can’t turn your dreams into a reality. I also understand that you have those people that are rooting for you and I know that it’s foreign in between and that you may have more negative people in your ear more than you have the positive people, but I’m standing here to tell you that it gets better. I’m standing here to tell you that you can turn your dreams into a reality. 

I’m standing here to tell you that you can make it happen. I’m standing here to tell you that you must. Believe in yourself Because how you see yourself is how the world is going to treat you. And so if you see yourself as a piece of gum on the bottom of a shoe, then you can’t complain and get mad when nobody believes in you. Because there’s somebody right now that’s looking for what you have. There is somebody right now that is wanting the words of encouragement that you have to say. But because you’re too scared to speak life into that person. 

They’ll never get it.

You see, I had to understand that. In order for me to go to another level in life in order for me to do what I’m doing now. I had to believe in myself. I had to believe in myself. I had to stay consistent. I had to block out the noise. I had to block out the people that hated me. I had to block out the people that always had something negative to say. So what am I challenging you with right now? I’m challenging you to believe in yourself. 

I’m challenging you with staying consistent. 

And last but not least. I’m challenging you to fight it out. No matter what, why be normal when you can be extraordinary.
