Be Tougher Than Life: Coach Pain’s Grit Mindset

0:00The stage is set, and it's time to rock and roll. You are walking into an arena, and you must be ready to work. There could be no weakness, there could be no excuses. Why does life have to be so difficult? Why must we struggle so much? What good is life? If every day there's so much pain, it is time to take control of your now, to be able to get back in the driver's seat, to understand that you must be tougher than your life.

1:04Do you feel that life is holding you back? Are you blaming your life for the difficulties that you face day in and day out? Welcome to the jungle, and the jungle. There are rules, and the rule is survive. Are you holding on to something that won't help you to push the extra mile? That won't help you to push that extra rep that you need? Will you finish what you start? Or will you make excuses? What is it going to take for you to wake up and realize that in this place, there is no easy. You can't get strong being easy.

2:05You can't get faster being easy. You can't be the best makeup of yourself being easy. Many things will come at you. There are going to be times that you're going to want to give up, but you don't have the permission to do so. You must carry on a good fight. What great is in you. If you don't believe of your greatness that you possess inside, what good is your greatness? If you don't stand on it, how can you hold on to who you really are inside? If you let everything else tell you that you're not worthy, the mistakes, the heart aches, the setbacks,

3:09you're going to feel the heat. But you've got to be cool. You've got to calm your storm. You've got to weather the storm. And know that your purpose in this world is meaningful. Your life is a great importance. The time that you have in this world is so precious. Be faithful. Be productive. Put away the destructive mindsets. Let the world know that you matter. Believe in every step that you take. And if you stumble and fall, remember the ground. We'll never apologize to you.

4:12So get up. Carry on. Be strong. And understand and know that your work is not done yet. When it starts to get tough, you must get a little bit tough. You must understand that you are not the only one in this world that's got a story to tell. There are people that are buried right now that are in the ground, in the graves. Because the thing about life, it will always go on. It will always serve its purpose. Stop drowning. And learn how to swim. You may have a great distance to get to shore. The water may be a little rough.

5:12The tide could be coming in. But you got to keep on fighting. You got to keep on swimming. You may go under a few times. But take a deep breath. Let it out. But you keep on swimming. You're not out of the fight. You continue to move on. There's going to be a lot of things swimming beneath your feet. There's going to be a lot of things that are going to try to drag you down. But you're not in the business to drown. You're in the business to live. Do not starve yourself from the beauty of life. There are going to be people out there in the world right now that don't understand the significance. And what it takes to put in work.

6:15The title is show up. Show up and ready to work. Show up and ready to dig. Show up and ready to push. Show up and ready to run hard. You did not come here to hold yourself back. If you're having a bad day, it's a day to make a difference. It's a day to define who you truly are inside. Are you that individual that woke up this morning and didn't know if you wanted to show up today? You walked through the door and then you decided you weren't ready. You walked through the door and you said you weren't ready because you wasn't ready to accept the fact that this is not going to be an easy day. Welcome to the jungle. In the jungle, there are rules.

7:19And the rule is survive. Survive the challenges. Note a difference between obstacles and opportunities. Opportunities always come. They will forever show up. But do you have the ability to overcome the obstacles that are standing in your way? Do you have the strength capacity to push through it? Are you powerful enough? To persevere, without fear, without doubt, no excuses. When weakness shows up, you must let weakness know to step aside because these rats that you still have left. You are responsible for not weakness, not your best friend.

8:24This is your time to shine. This is your time to push. This is your time to get the work done. This place that you decided to show up, you better be ready to show out. Get tight, get right, or get going. Your Lord Clock is not responsible for you to show up. Recognize your truth. Carry on with a full heart. Be productive. Be powerful. And from the bottom of my heart. Conduct your business.

9:45And from the bottom of my heart. And from the bottom of my heart.
