I started baseball when I was 6, but I really didn't start basketball until I was 12. (Oprah asked: Did you have any idea somewhere in your cell, and your knee somewhere? Did you have any idea that it could be like this?) - No, no and if that was the case, if it was something that I probably was chasing, I would have never gotten! (Oprah: Because you know a lot of kids think they are gonna be like you) - Thats the whole point. If you chase something then sometimes you never get it. If you put forth work and all the attitude, next thing you know it's bestowed upon you . -Michael Jordan. We look at great athletes and think they have some magic code that we don’t. But look at what he’s actually doing, he didn’t chase greatness. He just became it. He showed up, stayed humble, and did the work. And because he wasn’t clinging, because clinging is actually repelling, success was simply bestowed upon him. It’s the s...

If I do a job in 30 minutes, it's because I spent 10 years to learn how to do it in 30 minutes. You owe me for the years , not the minutes. Mastery creates efficiency. And mastery has tremendous value. When someone completes a task quickly and skillfully, it’s not just the moment you’re paying for. You're paying for the decade of learning, failure, repetition, and refinement behind it. Speed is not cheap. It's earned. Example #1: A graphic designer creates a logo in under an hour. Why it matters: That logo represents years of learning typography, color theory, brand psychology, and countless hours refining their creative process. Example #2: A software developer fixes a critical bug in 15 minutes. Why it matters: They’re not lucky...they’ve spent years learning systems, syntax, and patterns that allow them to instantly identify and solve issues others would spend hours on. ...

James 4:2 (KJV) “Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war: yet ye have not, because ye ask not.” 1 - You have not, because you ask not. Most people don't have the life of their dreams because you don't ask God! If you up your asks, He automatically ups his gives! You're his child, God created you! He made you! You ain't here by accident! 2 - Another reason people don't have what they want is that they don't have it written down. It is a principle for success. I don't know anybody wealthy that don't have a vision board. It is a scripture: Habakkuk 2:2-3 (KJV) "2 - And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it." "3 - For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; becaus...

The one way to coach your mind from depression is with gratitude. Everytime I feel myself not starting to feel some kind of way just take a paper and pencil out, just start writing down everything you have to be grateful for. Whatever it is: Your health, you can walk, you can still see, you have a car, may not be the one you want, I got a bus pass, I have clothing, I have a place to live, I ate today, I see a way that I can eat tomorrow, I got a friend that I can call and share my troubles with. Just be real detailed with it. You would be stunned! Stunned how long you will be writing! Now let me tell you what happens. Gratitude erases all negativity, because there's no room now for negativity. It's not a magic trick! Joy and depression can not reside in the same space! Those two things can not exist at the same time. Also what it does it changes your focus, from what you don't have to what you do have. Gratitude changes your perc...

Do Grades Actually Matter? What is the most weatlhiest street in Kelowna? What do you think I'll find in every one of those homes? A library . If I went to an apartment building accross the street, you know what I won't find in most of the apartments? A library . They have bigger tvs then the size of their libraries! Wealthy people have massive libraries and no tv. Do you think that's by chance? NO . Because they realize that education wasn't a place that I go that I got to spend money on.

How do I not get easily distracted? Most people are easily distracted because they don't have a plan for what they should be doing. So, if I have a vision for what I want to create in my life. And I took the time to break down that vision into the steps. Then I would know what I should be doing, and if I'm not doing it. It's not a distraction. I'm trying to avoid doing the work. Do you know what you should be doing to build your future? If you have the plan, you then understand what you're giving up. -Dan Martell. “See more quotes like this in the Top Motivational Quotes Index .”

What do you think of cutting out all disctractions like social media and video games? Whatever you're not willing to give up is going to be the thing that slows you down from achieving your dreams. If that list is really long , it's improbable you'll ever achieve anything important . And the reason why is people when they see me driving around with my super car, I land in a private airport, they always ask me this question. "What did you do to become successful?" It's not what I did, it's what I don't do. I don't drink, I don't eat sugar, I wake up at 4 am every morning, I work out pretty much everyday, so if you just get rid of all of those vices that hold you back, that's what creates the space for you to become more . -Dan Martell. “See more quotes like this in the Top Motivational Quotes Index .”
