0:00Hey, this is Strawberry, how y'all feeling out there today? I hope everybody is doing well, if you're not doing well. Let's find a way to get well, look well, and be well. Right now we're going to chill, and we're going to listen to some motivation by fearless soul. Balance. That's what we all need. What most seek in some argue against. Not just work-life balance, I mean being and doing balance. Balance between making it happen and letting it happen. Some argue you must work hard and take action to achieve anything in life. They are right in a way. Action is needed, and hard work does have its place. If you wish to succeed in accomplishing things in this world, however, the sacrifice should never be your life, your life quality, your presence, your happiness. Overworking leads to anxieties and stress, which usually lead to poor decision-making.

1:04Quality work is achieved when you are present, when you love what you do. You can still work hard, but your hard work should come from a state of wanting to do the work. Not from having to do it because you have so much on your plate. Each action you perform should be conscious and present. If you have too much on your plate, you are always thinking about another task while performing the current one. Nothing is going to be done to the best of your ability. It is far better to complete one job fully, complete and perfectly than 100 unfinished and incomplete. In every moment we should ask ourselves, what is really important? What is really important today? Is it necessary our rush out of the house to get the work? Must I be in the office in my head while my kids are talking to me? Unconsciously ignoring them completely? What if I lost my loved ones today? Can I honestly say I was committed and present to those that really mattered to me?

2:06One of the most powerful principles in maintaining life perspective is to start the day picturing yourself at your own funeral. Ask yourself, if I die today, did I live what truly mattered every day? Did I live how I wanted to live? Or was I, like most, just obsessed with getting things done? Can I do better? Starting right now? Picturing yourself at your funeral is powerful because it helps you understand that material things and chasing the big dollars isn't really that important. You can't take money with you. You can't take fancy cars with you. And your loved ones will never care about what you did in the office. They will only care about who you were and how you made them feel. This doesn't mean you go out and quit your job and live in a cave with your family. You can still thrive in business and you can still make huge sums of money. The point here is to always be mindful of what is the most important in your life.

3:08There will always be things that need to get done and always things that remain undone. They are not more important than your happiness now. They are not more important than this moment. They are not more important than those you love. Just ask anyone that has lost a loved one suddenly. Don't wait till it's too late to start living. Don't wait till it's too late to understand what's really important in your life. Don't wait till it's too late to be happy. Be lighthearted. Be joyful. Don't take life too seriously. It is meant to be enjoyed no matter what you are doing. For many life has become a competition of being better or having more than the neighbors. Keeping up with the Joneses is how the majority of the Western world lives. If we have less materially speaking, we feel like less of a human. If we have more, our ego is explode. This is not what life is about people. If you are chasing things, you will never be happy and always be chasing.

4:10Then you will die and no one will care because your soul died long ago. There is nothing wrong with money or being extremely wealthy. Money is great when placed in the right hands. There are so many great people on earth who do great things with their wealth. We are talking here about those who are obsessed with money, obsessed with material things and being better than their friends and their neighbors. We are talking about those who measure one's success by one's possessions. If you think money is the most important thing on earth, try counting your money while holding your breath. Money is not the answer. Living fully now is the answer. Love is the answer. Kindness is the answer. Compassion is the answer. Happiness is the answer. Thank you. Thank you for this day.

5:12Thank you for every moment that led to this day. Thank you for the hard times. They made me appreciate the good times. Thank you for the lessons. They were needed for my development. Thank you for my eyes that get to witness the miracles of today and tomorrow. Thank you for everything I take for granted. Thank you for all my blessings. Thank you for my drive. Thank you for my spirit. Thank you for my strength. Thank you for giving me the courage to fight through the hard times. Thank you for the people in my life. Those I love and those I learn from. Thank you for it all. Thank you. The key that opens the door to instant happiness. Unlocks the door to everything we are really seeking in life. Happiness and contentment.

6:14Think about it. No matter what you say you want, money, riches, health, to help others, why do you really want this? When you drill deep down, the only reason anyone wants anything is the feeling we believe we will get from having it. That all boils down to happiness and contentment. And the truth is we can have it now if we are grateful. And if you get quiet, get away from the noise of the world and think for a moment about what you could be grateful for, I'm sure you could find plenty. Be grateful there is food on the table, air in your lungs, life in your body. Get grateful that you have opportunity. Opportunity to take your life to a whole level,

7:14to decide right now that you are going to live your journey. You are going to live your dreams and never settle until you do. Get grateful for the mental strength you have been given to survive the hard time. Get grateful for your limbs. You have them. Many are not so blessed. Your eyesight, if you have it, many are not so blessed. You're hearing if you have it. Many are not so blessed to help you do have. Many are in worse position. Get grateful for that one person that has had an impact in your life or many people who are so blessed. Then get grateful you can choose to be that person for someone else. That one that makes a difference in someone else's life no matter how small. Get grateful you get to experience this magical universe. Today, not for miracle.

8:14I guarantee if you are looking, you will see them. There is unlimited things to be grateful for. Open your eyes, unlock your amazing life. It's ready, this instant.

9:14Welcome to the new me. I'm not the same. They don't get it. I'm no longer who I used to be. I've put in the work. I've put in the hours. I've gone from student to master. I've got superpowers. Was a coward. But now I'm empowered. Go left the gold that I went from the underground to the top. But the towers. I made the choice to set up up. Day after day, relentless. No letting up. I sacrifice so much this time. Move it up. Trust me, my success ain't luck. I have to be better. I have to be faster. I have to be smarter. I have to work harder than anybody else. I have to do this for myself. I have to transform. I'm a grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful.

10:18I am grateful. I am grateful. They don't even recognize me anymore. But deep down I'm the same person. Change was inevitable. But growth was a choice. I kept myself quiet to rise above the noise. All the sacrifices. All the late nights. I had to live a better life. Better choices. Better actions. Better decisions. A better living. I did whatever it takes. I had to get it. I've blood to blood. I've cried the tears. I've faced my fears. I disciplined for years. So much to cope with. I kept coming. The stain lays and focus. I try to calm my moment. Things can change for the better. I'm living proof. No matter the challenge, I will make it through. All my life I was told that I would make it. Look at me now. Freeborn greatness. I am grateful.

11:19I am grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful.

13:07I am grateful.

14:37I am grateful. Well, that gives the hand better shake it up Aligned to the center to the waist If you're winning by hand, never shake it Let them all stand and embrace it Distracting so we dance and delay it Don't have to wait for inspiration Move on like the master, twist the hand to light How people do you back without grabbing you?

16:38Session Session Session Session Session Session It doesn't matter where you are in life If you don't feel blessed You won't be blessed. You gotta know your worth before you can be worth anything. All the things were not a thing, friend, right? On the pain, all the sleepless nights. I'm not blessed because they're all friend, right? I'm a choreographer. I'm blessed because I got fight, but failure, trying to take my mind. I wouldn't let failure take my life. I'm not blessed because they're all friend, right? I'll never give up. I'm blessed because I got fight. Broken in pain, lonely battered and bruised. Always the same day, nothing more unusual. Seems like nothing changes, always the same rules. No matter how bad it gets, I refuse to lose.

17:40No matter how bad it gets, I'll keep on moving. No matter how bad it gets, I can still choose. To keep trying up, to keep trying up, to keep finding up. Keep rising up. I just got to that point where we're nuffles enough. I can't keep complaining, seeing the rain for luck. I have to stop, ask you why me. I'm gonna start looking inside, push through the pain, and tell my story on the other side. And to renew my mind, and start fighting. Now, when I was frightening, but after flying, that choice got me to where I am today. If you think these always were my way, listen close to what I'd do to say. Things were not a thing when right. I'll be playing all the sleepless nights. I'm not blessed because they're all friend, right? I'm a choreographer. I'm blessed because I got fight, but life's trying to take my mind. I've only anything to take my mind. I'm not blessed because they're all friend, right? I'm never give up. I'm blessed because I got fight. But you have to see all the sleepless nights. All the sacrifices, the choice between she, me,

18:41and her happy lights, all the knockdowns, that backs and tails, tries. They don't see the rules as cost because they're internalized. They think I'm blessed and think that everything we're bright. They just see the end result. And think I'm all right because I always smile. But they instinct to grind. I've read so hard that over time is just normal time. When you lose it all, and then still lose it can. It builds a different kind of fight inside. It builds a different kind of trial, different kind of fight. Different kind of fight, different kind of desire, a different kind of light. But I'm blessed because I've got fights. I wasn't handing nothing. The catalyst on my hands shows you why you bluffing. I'm like the time you kiss on me for nothing. It's the man with born and I just keep on running out. All the days were not a thing when right. All the pain, all the sleepless nights. I'm not blessed because they're all ventrains. I'm a total idiot. I'm blessed because I got fight. My life's trying to take my mind. I'm pulling anything, take my mind. I'm not blessed because they're all ventrains. I'm never give up.

19:41I'm blessed because I got fight. That's my blessed. Not that I was handing my dreams. But that I had enough fighting me. That I had enough belief in me to go after my dream. That I had the courage to go to bust through the pain. To rise through the darkness. And to tell my story on the other side. My story. My blessed. All the days were not a thing when right. All the pain, all the sleepless nights. I'm not blessed because they're all ventrains. I'm a total idiot. I'm blessed because I got fight. My life's trying to take my mind. I'm pulling anything, take my mind. I'm not blessed because they're all ventrains. I'm never give up. I'm blessed because I got fight.

20:52You can't see it and find nothing false. You're finally here. You're finally here and there's always the more you're ready. It's always the same. Right that side of you bistro going on. Yes. I never know what I was not like. The best project I can ever work on is myself Before I ask for help, I've got to help myself Before I build someone else, I've got to build myself It's all a mindset, I choose to be the best No, I have to be the best Nothing less, not focus on the best And when I'm tired, I'm focused on the best I'm only focused on success, I'm good with what I own I don't need a better phone, no room All I need is just a better me Big bones, I got big dreams It's big work to get the bigger things No matter what life brings, I'll always stay in the ring

21:54Can't knock me out, I'll take it on the gym It takes everything to get the win So everything is what I always give it always works I'm always working out within Sometimes I feel like I'm walking through hell I know the best project I can work on is myself Sometimes it feels like I'm locked in a cell I know the best project I can work on is myself I'm not trying to be anyone else I know the best project I can work on is myself One day it'll be my story I know the best project I can work on is myself Message to myself, remind it to myself No one can do this for me This is all on me, I want to be a better person I will achieve the best version of me I want to live with purpose There's so much more to me than what's on the surface There's a fire inside and I can feel it burning I came a long, long way from when I used to be worthless I spent years so searching for purpose Yeah, I went to work and I keep the wheels turning I'm asking in a splurge and I invest in myself Because it's always worth it Always reading, always learning, always working

22:54Still searching for ways to be that better person I know the late nights will always be worth it I know the pain from sacrifice will be worth it You have to finally don't turn and after time it all works I just keep on keeping on our totals Hope I just keep dreaming on Sometimes it feels like I'm walking through hell I know the best project I can work on is myself Sometimes it feels like I'm locked in a cell I know the best project I can work on is myself I'm not trying to be anyone else I know the best project I can work on is myself One day it'll be my story later I know the best project I can work on is myself The best project I can work on is myself And everything I fight to live my best life I'll try and that fight I'll try to create lives on hand I'll be stupid to wait for a hand towel I'll save standards I want to live an example Of what happens when potential gets messed But I went from student to master This is committee I lifestyle and I live And now I try and I want it Sometimes it feels like I'm walking through hell I know the best project I can work on is myself

23:56Sometimes it feels like I'm locked in a cell I know the best project I can work on is myself I'm not trying to be anyone else I know the best project I can work on is myself One day it'll be my story later I know the best project I can work on is myself I'm not trying to be anyone else

25:42I know the best project I can work on is myself I'm possible, I'm possible Got a will to come back nastier than the punch of life itself Despite the twelfth knockdown, I got up again and again and again Rest assured that I ain't going to rest till I'm done and finish now List of top five alive, but then I'm going to be in it Don't believe in failure, turn lost into ultimate gain Learn from mistakes, both mind and yours, it's simple and plain I'm far off demons trying to hold me down with chains Just didn't know my every weakness, but they didn't know who moves the domain When the world told me it's impossible, we told me I'm possible I'm possible, I'm possible When the world told me it's impossible, we told me I'm possible I'm possible, I'm possible Pushed myself to the brink of extinction, off with just a piece of wisdom

26:43Why not be a wolf through life instead of playing a lost in victim? Why? Got a family to take care of at the same time building a kingdom Never wanted to linger, but the shoot shots care that when the time comes I won't pull the trigger as I grew older my shoulders Brown and my patience grew bigger Bigger Who would have figured that doubt that a kid would become something way bigger? Who? Let's run in my environment for somebody to be a hero Yeah, well they didn't It is fine because they never needed nobody but the person that I see in the mirror When the world told me it's impossible, we told me I'm possible I'm possible, I'm possible When the world told me it's impossible, we told me I'm possible I'm possible, I'm possible you

28:12You want to make it to heaven, you got to go through hell, and only if you do well, I know you know too well that you can't make it by yourself. There's no growth in the comfort zone to get to heaven, can't go along, cause pain is your friend. Start with you from the start to the end, won't let you down, get a never pain. Not many recommend pain to making, we're taking and raising it up, push you to grain this love. You can't grow without pain, you can't move without pain, you can't go without pain, you won't be the same. After the struggle is strained, you'll be stronger, think that hurt you before. You can't hurt you no more, every day you give thanks for those sleepless nights. And the times when you were crying you couldn't get things right, cause the lesson pain was teaching you about this life. We're like a narrow put you back and sit you forward and flight, you know. There is no pain, there is no pain, there is no pain, there is no pain, there is no pain.

29:17I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel none, there is no pain, there is no pain. There is no pain, there is no pain, there is no pain. I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel none. You gotta go through pain, you gotta go through resistance, let the pain make change. Create a better existence, there's so much to gain. Keep on being persistent, don't end it in pain, stay strong, go to distance. There's no strong person with an easy pass. They'll tell you from the heart that the pain won't last, even though it hurts. Stick to your task, tough times don't, but tough people last. Your heart's bigger than any pain, you make it through anything, you make it through any pain. You make it through any day, you make it through hurricane, you make it to better day. Just know you can make the change in one day, you give thanks for those sleepless nights. And the times when you were crying couldn't get things right, cause the lesson pain was teaching you about this life.

30:19Or like a narrow put your back and sit you for when they're flaking up. There is no pain, there is no pain, there is no pain, there is none. I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel none. There is no pain, there is no pain, there is no pain, there is none. I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel none. There is no pain, there is no pain, there is no pain, there is no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no pain, I feel no Your comfort zone is your enemy.

31:43One of the biggest ironies I can think of is when you live life trying to stay comfortable life will send you more and more discomfort. It's true life will send you more and more problems life will keep throwing rocks at you life will keep hand you resistance struggles issues and because people are so concerned about staying comfortable instead of growing and reaching higher because people don't want to address their limitations and move beyond them they keep struggling listen you are not here on this planet to sip apple martinis on the beach and get yourself a tan you are here to grow and if you will make yourself uncomfortable life will give you plenty of reasons to push you out your comfort zone so you have one of two options either you commit to constant growth and feeling discomfort upon your own accord and you become the master of your own destiny or you hand over the keys and you let life happen to you by default one path leads to success and the other path leads you to constant struggle and pain it's your choice you think Steve job started apple feeling comfortable about it you think top athletes sleep their way to high performance you think

32:46Oscar winning actors procrastinate their way to achievement no why are you giving into wasting time with Netflix marathons in the chronic procrastination why are you running to the bar the moment your best friend texts you to come out you have got to be willing to make the hard decision you've got to be willing to feel uncomfortable to feel awkward to face rejection to fail to feel pressure you've got to be willing to face those things because that's what's necessary for you to grow how many times you looked at your life and said man if only I knew then what I know now I live my life so differently so was it not possible then that the life you are living now you would be living differently if you began to develop an awareness that you do not currently have well guess what the only way for you to develop knowledge and awareness is to try things you have not yet tried to do things you have not yet done to create things you have not yet created to go to places you have not yet explored this is how you grow that is how you become the person who is worthy of sitting on the

33:50beach with their favorite drink life rewards you with those experiences after you do the work there is a real price to success and life collects the payments and let me tell you something life does not accept payment plans life does not let you get away with experiencing things that you have not yet earned your sacrifice must be paid up front and in full and that is the only way you are going to achieve the life that you want so I strongly suggest you begin to pay with your discomfort I strongly suggest that you start making those calls that you start approaching that person that you start practicing kindness and compassion over jealousy and greed that you confront your anxiety that you hit the gym that you study harder that you jump higher that you begin waking up early even if you're not a morning person that you destroy your procrastination that you start doing the things that you know within your heart that you should have started doing a long time ago so you can start to build the experiences and the knowledge that you need to succeed that is what I suggest you and don't listen to this as a voice on

34:51a video over some music listen to this as a direct sign a direct message that life is giving to you to wake you up to help you acknowledge your own greatness it's time it's time for you to get uncomfortable it's time for you to start dreaming again and start going after what was always yours but why you've ignored for far too long and I promise when you push yourself in a discomfort your friends will take notice your colleagues will take notice your family will take notice life will take notice and life will begin to back you up life will begin to support you and open doors for you and introduce you to the people will take you to the next level but you have got to take the first step so take it take it and watch your life explode into greatness watch new levels of the game unfold for you watch you develop into the person who you have always wanted to become it's all waiting for you outside of your comfort zone go for it
