But we look for it in a comfortable environment.

You will not find toughness in a comfortable environment.

Those of you who are listening to this, you will not find it.

The only way you find it is to drown yourself in a position where you're just out of sorts.

Where you can't swim and you're drowning.

Where you're drowning.

When you say, you know what, man?

Dad.

Once you come face to face with who you are, you have a starting point.

It's in our head saying, you know what, man?

Dude, you're not doing shit.

You're wasting a bunch of percentage here.

In this other 80% is suffering, pain, failure, failure, failure, self-doubt, darkness, and then a whole bunch of light.

But to get to this light, you gotta go through all of this shit.

When that alarm clock goes off at 4 or 5 in the morning, your mind says, no.

You just say, this is what we do.

It's what we do now.

Because to get to where you want to go, the amount of pain involved, the amount of mental pain, of how many times you're going to have to do something that you don't want to do to get to where you want to go.

And then once you do this over and over and over again, it becomes like breathing.

I don't want to live this lifestyle, but to get to the other side of this, I have to.
