Transcript

it took me 4 years to learn what I'm about to teach you in a minute and 1/2. You can decide exactly who you want to be and become that person. You don't need friends in high places. You don't need to run through somebody's program. No, you can become that person right now. Change can take place in an instant. You simply have to identify the differences in your thoughts and your actions between current you and the you you would like to be. And you need to believe enough in your vision to actually change the actions and change the thoughts of current you. Now, there is an enemy working against you. Future you is pulling you forward. Past you is pulling you back. And present you is trying to make the decision whether to listen to future you or past you. See, past you knows that if you listen to future you and you go with future you, you're gonna lose past you. You're gonna lose your habits, your mindsets. And so past you fights with everything it has to keep you from listening to future you. It'll give you all sorts of limiting beliefs. That goal is too high. You're not the right type of person for this. It'll tell you you're a victim. So you shouldn't have to change. It'll tell you anything to get you not to listen to future you. Anything to discredit the vision of who you're supposed to be now. How do you side with future you to defeat past you? Consume the content by people who are where you want to be. This is the power of content creation. This is the power of intentional consumption. The positive influence will pull you up. And there's nothing you can do about it. Remember all these things that past you tells you. Sure, you're a victim. Sure, you're weak. Sure, it is not your fault. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't still listen to future you. Just because the way is dangerous does not mean you shouldn't take the way.
