Speaker 1 (00:00):
See, we have one more phone call for you before
we get out. Uh, this is a guy who needs
some life motivational advice.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Hey, what's going on? Steve? Want and cool keeping? Good
to you. Hey, I made a quick question. Man, I
feel like I have a calling on I know I
have a calling on my life because so it burns
inside of me when I when I think about it.
You know what I'm saying that I have a calling
on my life and I believe it not only your

(00:28):
h put me and my family on a different level,
but it will also help a lot of other people.
But I'm not being consistent about it. I'm being just
are beating about it and I'm not. I'm not going
after it like I should. What you should? Just I
can do to keep me focused and keep me consistent
about it and keep pushing forward about it. Appreciate it

(00:50):
in a dance. Thank you something.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
It's very simple what I aswer I'm about to give
you Its very simple, but it's hard. You have to
become disciplined. Discipline is doing what you have to do
even when you don't want to see. To answer the
calling on your life, it requires some discipline because that
calling you don't want all to come with the calling.

(01:13):
I've oftentimes not wanted everything that comes with my calling,
but it eats away at you. You have to answer
the call. You not answer the call. You just said, brother,
it will make a better way for your family, your
life and everything. But you also are looking at the requirements,

(01:34):
and that's what's got you shaky. You ain't consistent because
you wake up some days and you just don't want
to do that today. Discipline is doing what you have
to do even when you don't want to do it.
So bruh, you have to become disciplined. Discipline is the
key to becoming successful. Without discipline, you cannot become successful.

(01:57):
You just can't. And discipline is hard to do. Discipline
is hard to develop. It's hard to wake up and
do something that you have to do, do something you
don't want to do, and got to do it anyway.
It's hard, man. But those that honor the discipline are
the ones that have different types of lives. And you

(02:20):
get to make that choice. God gives us the power
of decision. We all get to decide who we are,
what we gonna be. And the moment you stop trying,
you have to now make the adjustment to settle in. Well,
this is my life. If you say this is my life,
this is what I've resigned myself to, then that's guess what.

(02:41):
That's what your life is to be. And if you
ain't happy with it, that's your decision. God ain't stopped
you from dreaming. God didn't stop you from believing you did.
That's yourself. When you stop dreaming, that's you. When you
quit believing, that's you. That decision occurs in your mind,

(03:08):
between your temples and your earloads. Those decisions are made
up there. You. You, you are the farming of your brain.
You just have to understand that your brain is operated
in two halves. You have a positive side and a

(03:30):
negative side. A foreman is in charge of the negative side,
and a foreman is in charge of the positive side,
and a foreman is in charge of the negative side.
Who you call to the forefront to give instructions to
every day because you're the CEO, you're the boss. If
you say, well, man, I don't walk up on the

(03:50):
wrong side of the bed, man, I don't feel myself today,
then guess what. That's a negative thought. The foreman that's
in charge of the negative size come to the front
of your brain and starts issuing workers orders. Today, Well,
boss man said he got up on the wrong side
of the bed today. Boss man said he don't feel
himself today. Let's get to work, and the workers on
the negative side of the brain starts manufacturing thoughts to

(04:13):
justify and fulfill the command of the CEO. On the
other hand, if you wake up and say, Lord, I
thank you for this day, I'm grateful. I'm expecting great
things to happen to me. I'm looking for a life
of abundance, and if anything happens contrary to that, I
expect you to give me the strength and the will

(04:34):
and the discipline to forge forward. Guess what. The foreman
that's in charge of positive thoughts turns around and says, okay,
fellas you heard the CEO. Today gonna be a great
day today. We expect great things today, and if anything
were to happen, he gonna give us the strength and
fortitude to forge forward. And that's what gets produced. It's
called discipline. Whenever I meet anybody and they are f

(05:00):
short of their dreams, always check them on their discipline,
because y'all, it's really up to you. You ain't gotta
get mad at nobody else. You have the power of choice.
You get to decide now if you gonna sit in
your life and accept it the way it is. Whatever
cards life then dealt you, and you gonna just play

(05:21):
that hand right there. You ain't gonna try to get
no new cards. You ain't gonna go and pull from
the deck. You ain't gonna try to embedter your hand.
You just dz the five cards. I got what That's
not how this worked. You can change cards, man, if
you don't like the hand. Now, listen to me. Do
we all have some cards in our hands we don't want.

(05:44):
Of course, you can have the lowest card in the deck,
a deuce, But if you get faux deuces, you're finna win.
Three deuces can win, Homie, You understand you can take something.
God has the ability to take something bad and turn
it into it. Man, you pick your hand, Man, I

(06:06):
got it two a spade. You playing spades? You pick
up your card. I got three of spade, man, I
got four spade. Day, I'm all these low ass spades.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
Keep picking.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
You mess around, and you got seven spades in your hand.
I don't care if it's two through eight. You fit
the win, Homie, you fit in the wind. Now brother,
get disciplined, Talk to God today.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Love you ear.
