Become The Person Who Attracts SUCCESS - Powerful Morning Motivation
07 Nov 2025
Chapter 1: What mindset is necessary to attract success?
The flat ground always arrives. And you might not know what this means, but you will. It's been the truth of every run I've ever taken, every mountain I've ever climbed, and overall, every challenge I've faced in life. It's the reminder that's carried me when my lungs burned, my legs felt like lead. It's been there when the finish line seemed impossibly far away.
And the idea kind of reoccurred to me perfectly a few days ago on a run up Pinnacle Peak, which is a duo of mountains about 20 minutes up the road from me. Essentially, two connecting mountains. You run up one and then down it. And it connects to the other mountain, which you run up and then down. And once you've completed that, you kind of turn around and you just retrace those steps.
Chapter 2: How does embracing discomfort lead to personal growth?
Up, down, up, down. Takes about 40 minutes. And I've done it about 10 times now. And the hardest part is what I've called climb three, right? That's the point where you've run up, down, up, down, you turn around to do it all again, and it's technically your third ascent. You know, the start of the journey back.
And it just so happens to be the steepest part of the climb and the longest part of the climb. It feels like endless steps. And as you can imagine, running uphill like that, your heart races and, you know, your lungs, they gasp for air.
And when you're in the thick of it, right, precisely in that moment, you know, you've already run halfway, you're exhausted, you know, your legs are starting to feel heavy. And the thought of another 20 minutes, it's almost impossible to compartmentalize. It feels overwhelming in totality. Here's what I realized.
That feeling, that overwhelming sense of discomfort, you won't feel that the entire run. In fact, you won't even feel that the entire duration of quote unquote climb three.
Chapter 3: What role does mental discipline play in achieving goals?
Why? Well, because even during climb three, there are these little 10 second stretches where the ground flattens and it creates this tiny reprieve, a gift. And you might laugh and go, 10 seconds, that's nothing. It's more than enough for your body to reset. Like, funny enough, 10 seconds is an eternity. It's enough to catch your breath.
It's enough to, you know, get yourself together as you give your feet, your legs the gift of running on flat ground for a few seconds. It gives you everything you need to carry on. And all runs are like that. You know, it's not necessarily pain until the end. It's pain until the next reprieve. And there's a giant difference between the two things.
You just need to make it to the flat ground, which is there and will arrive sooner than you think. And every time life feels too hard, Similarly, there's always a reprieve, always a patch of earth that flattens out, always a singular moment to breathe.
Chapter 4: How can daily commitments reshape your identity?
And so the power in being able to put your faith in those moments is life-changing. Let the course take care of the rest. And the next day, I was talking to my videographer, Brandon, about this metaphor. I realized this running yesterday. Does it make sense? Does it resonate? And his eyes kind of lit up. He's like, yeah, it reminds me of aid stations in ultramarathons.
Because the runners, they're not thinking about 100 miles. They're thinking about the next aid station. That place where you can breathe and regroup and recover and set out again. This allows the miles to break down into manageable pieces. The impossible becomes possible in bite-sized chunks. That's life.
You know, we break under the weight of forever, under the illusion that the pain or the uncertainty or the uphill climb must last for eternity. But it doesn't. Life is not a hundred-mile sentence of suffering. It's a series of aid stations, a handful of breaths on flat ground. So when it hurts, don't carry the burden of the entire journey on your shoulders. That doesn't help you.
Chapter 5: What is the significance of 'climb three' in personal challenges?
It doesn't help the situation. Don't let your mind convince you that the climb never ends. Now, carry what's in front of you. Run to the next aid station, the next reprieve. Find your next patch of flat ground. It's there. And the truth is, life is not built in lifetimes. It's built in moments. It's not conquered in decades. It's conquered in seconds.
And if you can master the seconds, if you can take the next step, if you can make it to that breath of air, you can handle the rest. That, my friends, is how you move mountains. It's how you turn impossible things into inevitable victories. Not by taking the whole weight of the world at once, but by trusting the intervals of grace along the way.
And when you look back, you will realize what felt unbearable was only temporary. What felt infinite was just a climb. And guess what? You climbed it. The reprieves carry you. The aid stations save you.
Chapter 6: How do we find reprieve during tough times?
The flat ground reminds you that life doesn't ask you to be invincible. It asks you to be faithful to the next step. So the next time life feels too heavy, don't think about the entire journey. Don't measure yourself against the whole mountain. Just get to the flat ground in front of you, and then the next one, and the next one. That's how impossible things are done.
That's how ordinary lives become extraordinary stories, one reprieve at a time. In your darkest moments, remember flat ground always arrives. Life is about duality. It's about being grateful for the road behind you, but also excited and hungry for what's ahead. That balance is where growth lives. It's why we created AGNS, always grateful, never satisfied.

Think about this, a world you don't even know exists, and you never encounter that reality until you leave the comfort of the one that you've always known. I've learned this again and again, and I will learn it many times into the future.
Chapter 7: What lessons can be learned from the metaphor of running uphill?
You think you know your limits, maybe because you feel like you're playing on the edges. touching the walls of your routine and calling that the perimeter of your power. But that's not the truth. That's just what you've grown used to. And see, there's a monumental discrepancy between those two things. There is a version of you right now living in the shadows of what could be.
A version you'll only meet when you go farther than you've ever gone. But the only way to find out how far you can go is to risk going too far. That's when the walls break. That's when the illusion of normal crumbles. Because as comfortable and familiar as normal was, it was never your ceiling. It was, we'll call it more of a sandbox, a cage, a box you unknowingly chose to live in.
And when you step out, when you face the resistance, the fatigue, the voice screaming, enough, I'm done, and still you don't stop, you see it. For the first time, you feel it. Not some facade. Not some made up story or narrative. No, you come face to face with that version of you that has always been there, just buried. Right beneath the comfort and fear and excuses.
Right beyond the normalcy that clouds our vision. This is the belly of the beast. And contrary to how I've thought in the past, contrary to maybe the easiest trap to fall into, that chaos is not there to break you. It's there to introduce you to the real you. The one who does not run from challenges. but instead walks towards them with open arms.
Because in this place, you learn the most important lesson of all. You have been playing small. You've been living at half speed, simply telling yourself that it was full throttle. And maybe it wasn't intentional. Maybe you've wanted more all along.

Chapter 8: How can we redefine failure and success in our lives?
Well, surprise, this is your reminder that it's there. But unpacking it, unboxing it has to be intentional. Now that you know, once you've seen it, it can never be unseen. This is just the beginning, knocking down wall after wall, breaking barrier after barrier. So go. Don't go far. Go too far. Go further than feels necessary or rational.
Go further than your mind in its present state can even comprehend because that's the only way to find out how far you can truly go. So question, how many best-selling books were almost written? and how many Oscar-winning movies were almost made, how many multi-million dollar businesses were almost started, how many lifelong relationships almost initiated but weren't. So, a few years ago,
I was going to run a half marathon with my sister. We were in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, visiting our parents. And I think it was a Thanksgiving half marathon. Or maybe it was. I can't remember. So I've been training and working towards it. And the day of the race, I'm super sick. Stuffed nose, all congested, coughing.
And so obviously I'm kind of weighing the pros and cons and thinking, I'm not going to do this today, right? It's unfortunate. I'll cheer my sister on. But as we get there, I think, what's the worst that could happen, right? I have to walk. Who cares? So I lace up and I go, which seems like a very unremarkable thing. until I start going and feeling really good.
And I don't know how to rationalize that or why I felt so good. But it carried on throughout the entire race and I ended up getting a personal best. And the reason that race stuck with me and I never forgot about it is because of how close I was to saying no. How close I was to missing what would have been the best run of my life at the time in that distance.
And how many times in life we do the same thing? Like how many times do we turn our backs on what would have completely transformed our world? Or maybe not even quit before we began, but stopped early. You know, felt too much doubt and insecurity, became too impatient. And if we just hung on, right?
Like there's an idea that so many people gave up not knowing how close they were to the exact result they were looking for. When any action can bring you that much closer and every day is another step towards that goal. So you have to remember that. There's so many things in life that you're capable of bringing to the world that you're stopping just short of.
Life doesn't ask permission before it changes. It doesn't knock politely on your door before it rearranges everything you thought you knew. No, life barges in. It bends the road you're on. It shifts the ground beneath your feet. And it looks at you without an apology as it asks, what are you going to do about it? And here's the truth.
The people who win in this world, they're not the ones with the biggest muscles. They're not the ones with the most money in the bank or the most degrees on the wall. They're the ones who can take what life throws at them and adapt. Because life is not predictable. It's certainly not neat. It's not orderly. And those who cling to what was
