Why is it important to let go of past grievances?

Cole DaSilva 0:03
You were too hung up on blaming your mom for how she treated you when you were younger. You were too hung up on blaming your teachers for how they spoke to you. You're too hung up on anything that happened to you years ago. I'm not trying to discredit your pain, but you gotta let it go. And because of that, you aren't able to appreciate the strength and power you have today. You aren't able to step into that power because you are choosing to justify excuses every single time you open your eyes. It's time to take responsibility. Understand that you are in control of how you feel every day. What you do every day. How you act every day.

How can taking responsibility change your life?

Cole DaSilva 0:58
So don't get it twisted. The excuse that these outside sources control how you feel, what you do, and how you act is just a justification that has been drilled into your head since you were younger. Break out of it. Understand that we have the power to change our lives. Stop putting the power in other people's hands by blaming them for your current situation. Take that back. Choose to shift the trajectory of your life so you can live up to your true potential.

That feeling where every fiber of your being wants to give up is the test. The test to see if you actually want this shit. The test to see if you got what it takes to make the dream a reality.

What tests do we face when pursuing our dreams?

Cole DaSilva 1:55
The test that so many others have f***ing failed. You owe it to you to keep pushing. Get out of your f***ing head and into your shoes. Get out of your head and take action. Scream. Affirm who you are. I am unstoppable. I am unwavering. I am relentless. I am obsessed and I will never quit until I make that thing my fucking reality.

How do you overcome the urge to quit?

Cole DaSilva 2:24
Nothing will stand in my way and I don't care if the weight of all worlds is on my back. I will never kneel. Not everybody's meant to win. Not everybody's meant to be great. But I think you are.
Unknown 2:47
I get it. I understand what you're going through. I understand what you're feeling.
Cole DaSilva 2:59
Day after day, week after week, month after month, it just feels like that weight on your shoulders, on your back, is just getting heavier and heavier and heavier.
Unknown 3:12
And it's lightening up.

What does it mean to focus on the positive amidst challenges?

Cole DaSilva 3:17
But I get it. You feel like you should be further along because you have been pushing and pushing and pushing without anything happening. You feel like you should already be there. You feel like you should have already succeeded in your venture. So it's super frustrating when you look up and you realize you've barely moved forward. Some might tell you that quitting isn't that bad. And that you need to learn when to quit. But not today. In order to achieve the goal, the dream life, that next step, it's gonna take time. And when I say time, I don't mean a couple months.

How do you define your true potential?

Cole DaSilva 4:09
And I don't mean a couple days. When I'm talking about time, it might take decades for you to get to where you want to be. How badly do you want it? Are you in for this shit? Or are you just another person who likes to talk? But that's the reality of the life we live in. That's how this shit works. Achieving anything is gonna take time. It's harder than it looks when you start. It takes longer than you think it's going to.

What steps can you take to achieve your dreams?

Cole DaSilva 4:42
Just pivot the focus. turn your eyes to something else distract your mind stop focusing on the pain and focus on other things i don't care what the situation is and i don't care how long you've been grinding there is always a positive turn there is always a different perspective that you can lean into that will distract you from that loud ass voice telling you to quit in order to become a diamond not only do you got to deal with immense pressure You gotta deal with immense heat and you gotta get cut. You don't just wake up and decide to be a diamond. It's not like you just pull that rock out the ground and it looks like the thing everybody wants. What you focus on will become your reality.
Cole DaSilva 5:43
So whatever you want to achieve in life, maybe it's losing a certain amount of weight to become the best version of yourself. Maybe it's building a business to provide financial freedom for your family and to travel the world. Or maybe it's just being a better father, mother, or partner for your spouse.
