Hey! I wanted to talk to you about a book I'm reading right now called "The Talent Code." This book talks about how greatness isn't born. It's grown.
The author talks about overcoming obstacles and putting in your 10,000 hours working diligently. Working hard.
I want to encourage you guys not to ever say again, "Well he's just a natural! It's just the way it is! He was born with those gifts and those talents". And I'm not saying we're not born with some gifts and talents but overall it takes that hard work! It takes that every single day putting in your time.

Hey! What are you full of? Do you have solutions? Or do you have excuses? Many of you complain every single day because you are not getting the results that you want. The reason you are not getting the result(s) that you want is you are not putting the effort into it.

What I want to talk to you today is about the enthusiasm to get better. But I'd like to ask these to you, do you even want to be better?
Would you rather be comfortable with what you have and stay in mediocrity? In order for us to become better, we got a community around you. We got to be around people who will sharpen us, push us to be better, call us out for our blind spots, etc. The only way, I mean the ONLY way we are gonna be all God call us to be is to live in community.

Hey, there's a few good men out there. I want to tell you a reason I'm saying that. My family gets onto me a lot of times, they'll say, "Man you hammer these guys you're always saying what they don't do. You need to reach out sometimes and say the good things that they do." And it made me feel about that tall. I said, "Man, you're right you know." I do these guys pretty hot and heavy sometimes but I want to tell you something we've got some of the most outstanding men on the planet in Iron Sharpens Iron Mastermind Group. Now I got to confess a couple of things to you though in regards to telling you how happy I am and excited about the good job that they do. I planned an event coming up pretty soon and there was a number of guys that I invited to this event and one of the guys that I knew were going to be there. I mean it was no question he needed to be there and I needed him to be there. He turned me down bigger than Dallas! He's like, "I can't make it." And I'm like, "Well what is the deal? Where are you gonna be?" And he said, "Well my 17 year old daughter graduates from high school this year. She's gonna be going off to college and she's got an event at school and parents are asked to be there. And I don't want to miss it." And I'm like, "Are you kidding me? I mean this is a big deal event!" And he's like, "Hey, let me tell you something. This is a big deal. This is my daughter." And then I started thinking about I said. You know, he's doing exactly what I've been teaching all these years. He's excited me after I got mad! It excited me to think that he would stand up and honor his daughter more so than a business transaction!
