BE ADDICTED TO YOUR PASSIONS, NOT YOUR DISTRACTIONS
- Hi, I'm Dalvik Quince. One way to help manage type two diabetes is to regularly exercise. My exercise program can help get you into a routine that works for you. Keep in mind, managing butt sugar also takes the right. - Diet, hi, I'm celebrity chef Franklin Becker. Ever since I was diagnosed with type two diabetes, I've adapted my cooking style without sacrificing flavor. If you wanna learn more tips about diet and exercise, visit mytype2transformation.com. (upbeat music) How dangerous is it to unwrap a burger at 40 miles per hour? More so than you think. In a little over two seconds, your car can travel slightly more than 117 feet, which is the same length as 20 bicycles. Anything that distracts you while driving is dangerous. That's why driving while texting can be deadly too. So put it down, it can wait. Don't drive distracted, shift into safe. Message from the Colorado Department of Transportation. - Half the year is gone. What stages in your life, in your goals? Are you closer to at this point in the year? And which are you stuck in? Gotta exactly the same. And what do you have to do to change that? (upbeat music) Consuming our mind every single day with worries, my friend is a disservice to your energy, to your gift, to your potential, to your mission, to yourself. Because all that energy your mind has, the ideas that could flow to you, the solutions, it's a missed opportunity because you're swimming in worries. Why worry that much? But this is a practice. We often forget that developing a positive mind, we don't just have a positive mind. Some of us are hardwired a little bit differently. Yes, but it's a practice. It's something we do every single day. We wake up and we look and we place meaning into life. We don't wait for meaning to come to us like the wind. No, we place meaning with intention to the things that we do. - You're only excited about the outcome of something and not the process of doing it. You shouldn't do it because the outcome's uncertain. So you have to really enjoy who you're becoming, what you're learning, what you're getting out of it, not just the actual outcome of making money or selling your business. - You lose it. And you're not losing 'cause you're losing, you're losing because you're focusing on losing. That's all you focus on, what do they think? Believe in you, if you don't believe in you and you're losing and you lose it because you're overthinking everything you do 'cause you gotta get their approval to do it. So I need you to start doing what winners do. Winners focus on winning. Winners focus on scoring. Winners focus on dominating. Winners focus on showing up. Winners don't care what losers think about them. And winners don't care what other winners think about them. All they care about is winning. So do me a favor, you are winners. Start saying what you know and what you understand. And I promise you, if you start focusing on winner, you're gonna win, lose us, lose. And winners win, it's time for you to win. - Here was the best promise my mentor ever gave me. He said, "Mr. Only, if you will change, "everything will change for you." Wow, I took that to heart. And sure enough, the more I changed for the better, the more I changed from having a poor day to a good day, from lack of discipline to discipline, everything changed. - That thing that's hard to do, discourages a whole bunch of other, all by itself, 'cause the person who's willing to suffer the longest wins. And so we choose things that are incredibly hard to do. And you've heard me say pain and suffering a lot. And it's actually a positive attribute. People who can suffer are ultimately the ones that are the most successful. - I don't know what your future is, but if you're willing to take the harder way, the more complicated one, the one with more failures at first, their successes, the one that has ultimately proven to have more meaning, more victory, more glory, then you will not regret it. Whatever you choose for a career path, remember the struggles along the way are only meant to shape you for your purpose. - Secret of the age is that you have the power to do more than you can ever begin to imagine. Don't underestimate yourself. You don't know enough about yourself to become a cynic. And so you've got to challenge yourself, access that power that you have within you. You're more than a conqueror. - You can hope, you can wish, you can dream, you can say you're gonna, but the reality is, until you start stacking wins day by day by day by day, nothing's going to happen. The game is playing one day at a time. And if you have the capacity to wake up today, go through the entire day, do everything you're supposed to do and execute on those for one day, that means you can do it again the next day. And that means you can do it again the next day. You have exactly what's required to win at the highest level you could ever possibly win at. It's about stacking wins in a cumulative fashion over the course of time. And when you do that, winning is undeniable. - You need to make it a habit to start every fucking day, validating yourself, cheering for yourself because life is a marathon. And this might be a challenging leg where you're like, I'm just gonna throw on the towel. I'm not gonna do that thing. Hell no. If you're standing in front of that mirror, you deserve to feel the support and empowerment and encouragement that you need. You are doing so much every single day that you don't give yourself credit for. - A lot of folk won't let you forget what you used to do or what you have done, what mistakes you've made. All of us have made some mistakes in life. All of us have done some things that if we happened to do over again, we wouldn't do it again. There are a lot of things that if I headed to do over again, if I knew then what I know now, I would have done it differently. Well, it did happen that way. Oh, you don't want me to live that down. How you want to keep on putting that in my face about what I did. Guess what? I'm not interested. That's what I did there. Won't do it today. So you're picking on an innocent man. - The thing that's so interesting about being alive is that you're all in. No matter what you do, you're all in. This is gonna kill you. So I think you might as well play the most magnificent game you can while you're waiting. You have to start living your life in expectation. You have got to start expecting great things to happen for you in order for it to happen. If you live your life in expectations, that's what happens to you. If you live your life in despair, that's what happens to you. I'll never be rich. You won't. You won't. The moment you change the frequency that your tower emits different things come back to you. - You have this kind of convoluted, limiting belief about why you can't do something right now that's your own BS story you keep telling yourself. How about you just drop that story? How about you just decide it's a lie? Every day, some of us are killing ourselves with the shame we carry from something we've done, some humiliation, some fear. We put this gun to our head every day that tells us we're not enough. We're not strong enough, pretty enough, smart enough. You do it over and over and over again and there's a better way forward. You can put those things down in your life. You can decide today that you were born to do something great. You can set aside this weapon that you keep using against yourself to hold you back from your joy, from your passion, from your achievement, from all the goodies in life. You can decide today just intentionally to set this weapon down, whatever it is. I've looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself, if today were the last day of my life, what I want to do, what I am about to do today, and whenever the answer has been no for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. There is no reason not to follow your heart. An official message from Medicare.
