You have an opportunity right now

that
you won't have a few years from
now this
is an opportunity of a lifetime your
family are counting on you to
study hard
your friends are counting on you to
study hard and maybe you don't
realize
it yet but your future self is
counting
on you to study hard and the goal
is not
to keep studying until you're
contained
the idea is not to keep studying
until
you become satisfied with your
grades
you should never be satisfied you
should
always be striving for better
 because
the day you become content with
your
grades that's the day that you stop
evaluating yourself that's the day
you
stop growing that's the day that the
person trying to catch you will
catch
you you have to take advantage of
the
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that
you
have right now you don't have to
be the
most talented or the wisest or the
smartest or the wealthiest you don't
have to be the most intelligent to
get
to the top but you've got a study
you
have to out study everyone your
classmates might come from
 money they
might have parents that own
businesses
they might know people and are
able to
get them a job but they will not out
study and what you have to do is
make a
decision then no matter how
privileged
or talented anyone else's in your
class
you're going to out study them but
how
do you out study everyone else in
your
class I'll leave you with the words
of
Eric Thomas I've looked at the
most
successful people in the world and
I
realized that they have seven or
 eight
similar things in common and one
of the
things they all had in common was
that
they all had a root
they are obsessed with routine they
don't have a gap of wasted time in
their
routine they don't grind until 6 p.m.
and then played video games for
the rest
of the night they're not scrolling
mindlessly through Instagram four
hours
a day they don't have time that's a
poverty mindset successful people
don't
waste time they don't watch TV
they
don't do a lot of entertainment if
they're not working then they're
studying or getting better at their
craft so what you have to decide is
do
you want to be in the 99% or the
1% and
you'll only join the 1% when you
start
thinking like the 1% working like
the 1%
walking what the 1% how you
prioritize
your studying over the next 365
days
will significantly alter the journey
you're on and whether you make it
into
the 1% Club Aristotle said you are
what you repeatedly do there for
excellence
ought to be a habit not an act
don't ever forget that as coach Jay
said
I'm not your coach right now I'm
your
 conscience you're in a fight
between will and skill I say will
first because that's where you are
you're locked and
loaded with skill you're studying
every
day you're putting in your work
you're
buying everything your books pins
no
pets you're making the investment
you're
living your dream you're walking
like
your dream you're surrounding
yourself
with your dream you're studying
until
late and night and waking up early
to do
it all over again you've put your
work
in you've got your skill and now
 it's
the test of your will it's a mindset
thing you're in
right now it's a mindset thing
because
your challenge isn't moving your
mountain is not moving you don't
feel
like you're making any progress
you're
not physically moving when you
see
everything else around you and
other
people around you moving you're
not
making progress you're in a test of
your
will right now because life says it
has
a little more tests for you it's no
different because you messed up
because
you fell off the wagon because you
failed an exam two exams three
exams you
gave up on your studying you
dropped out
last year and you really want your
dream
to happen and you're putting in
your
work and nothing's happening yet
this is
our moment ladies and gentlemen
this
right here is our moment guys
you've all
got to think about that just for a
minute this right here this moment
right
here this is our moment to where
we make
what we have been dreaming of
into
reality the exams you have coming
 it all
starts in your mind you've got to
fall back on everything that you've
learned
everything that you've prepared for
every hour you spend studying for
it you've prepared well for this
dreams can become buried under
discouragement
buried under past mistakes there
are dreams buried under failed
exams buried
under low self-esteem it's easy to
settle for average grades even
though
you have all this potential buried
on the inside all of us have things
that we're believing for something
we want to accomplish deep down
we know it's a part
of our destiny we can feel it so
strongly but then we hit some
setbacks
 we didn't pass the exam
our results weren't good enough if
you
do your part and start believing
again
and get your passion back it's on
the
way go back and try again the true
mark
of a champion is even though some
dirt
gets thrown on your dream instead
of letting it get buried you keep
shaking it off
you keep moving forward you keep
looking
for new opportunities
