Salute the sheld over in the rumble man's hold down the rumble, Nah, man, most people, most of us, we need to shut up and raise our standards, not disrespectfully, not emotionally, discipline because talking too much is one of the biggest enemies. In your progress. Like I fight with my I fight with my son every like I fight with him every day, man, because he's so charismatic and he's so beautiful man, and he's so he's so he got such a he got such a strong personality, man, and he's so he's such a he just like me. You feel me a lot like me. But that mamuger talk too much. Man. He gotta talk about everything. Man. He talk his way through his homework, talking his way through workouts, talking his way through practice, just talk talk, talk, talking his way during the games. Like, man, shut up, bro, Yeah, because talking too much is one of the biggest enemies of progress. And that's coming from a motherfucker who come in here and talk every day. Y'all wouldn't believe me, though, if I told you this is the most I talk talk on the day. For today, this is the most I talk. But that's a whole other conversation. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. Too much talk or talking too much is one of the biggest enemies of progress period. Talking about what you're gonna do or what you're finna do. You know, that's what I like to say. You know what I mean, what you're talking about, what you're finna do, talk about what you want to do, talking about what you almost did but not doing it? You feel me? Think about it, man like, Let's have a real conversation. Think about your life. Think about people in your life. You know how many people you have? The majority of people when you have conversation, especially coming from where we're coming from, you hear me, mother will talk to you about what they gonna do, what they want to do, or what they almost did. You feel me, man? I ast you feel me almost if it wasn't for almost but not doing it? Y'all. So here's my my, my, my, my observation, my own little You know, I always got an early observation. I gotta drop it on y'all to help set the standards. Slew to my homie Craig l and I get it off your podcast, Chess Family. Salute to you all the way. Because Kansas City K is next to Kansas City, MO. Shout out to Kansas City. K kid said, I'm about to go. Oh no, you don't. Oh no, y'all, no ah, no kid, Oh no, it's trouble man Tuesday. We finish, get that, We finiah, get it, we finish, get it cracking. Listen to me, man, here's my observation. Talking creates comfort. People find comfort in talking. Yeah, yeah, talking creates comfort. But your standards are what's going to create your results. Talking creates comfort. Standards create results. That's why I say, shut up and raise your standards. Shut up and raise your standards. Yeah, talking creates comfort, and too many people are living in comfort created by conversation. Oh what a kia, roll that bar row, that bar scale out here. Too many people are living in comfort created by conversation. So man, I'm trying not to cuss. I'm trying to minimize cussing because I invited a whole lot of people in here. I invited you know, grandma's aunties. I'm trying not to get the cussing in this motherfucker too much. But listen to me. Too many people are living in comfort created by conversation. You know, how many think about your life? How many people us think about us we are living in the comfort that we created with conversation plans. Conversations created by comfort or excuse me, comfort created by conversations, plans excuses comfort created by conversations explanations, comfort created by conversations. You feel me everything all of this. Plans ideas, excuses, explanations, but not the execution. The execution is what's missing. You feel me. The execution is what's missing. Yeah, yeah, plans ideas, excuses, explanation, but no execution. Yeah. Hell, shouldn't saying now? This song is gonna be stuck in my head all day. We don't need another heed. We just need to know away home. Plans ideas excuses, explanations, but no execution. So let me ask you something off the top. Let's set the tempo. We gotta set the tempo for the conversation. Man, let's go set the tempo. Key Alan, let's set the tempo. Craig l let's set the tempo. Are your standards your current standards? Are they rising or are they slipping? Are they rising or are they slipping? Not what you want, not what you hope, what you tolerate, Because your life reflects what you tolerate from others Your life reflects what you tolerate from your situations. Your life reflects what you tolerate most importantly from yourself. Yeah, your life reflects what you tolerate. Ooh, kill that, Barscale, please, Barscale please. Your life reflects what you tolerate like I don't even want to rush past that. Your life reflects what you tolerate. Your life reflects what you tolerate, not what you dream about. Let's get it. One. So I'm hustled harder than the moment. I'm a feast on these streets. Got a revolver. I talked for these niggas trying to take me off the block where I'm posted up daily sit Dailey's. Out the bottles.

It's sue that my brother jeff'spark man NYC in the buildings, Salute to the family, man, shout out to the most intentional Morning circle on the planet. Man, Man, I love y'all, And it ain't ain't it. Ain't shit you can do about. Nothing you can do about it, ain't nothing. You can do about it, man, So let's go ahead on and get busy, man, because your life reflects what you tolerate, not what you dream about. Hmm. I think I might have messed myself up. I probably should have roll the credits right there. So let's define something clearly. Y'all know. I like to y'all know I like to work clean, so I like to operate from a clean surface. So it's define something clearly today. A standard is not a wish. A standard is not and intention. I told y'all when I come in here and I say these words, I need y'all to push me. Junior. What's the standard. Like you use the word standard a lot, what's a standard? In the midst of me using the word standard, I come to the realization that I'm not sure I've ever offered a comprehensive work and definition of standard so that we can know so that we can apply it. You feel me, how we going to apply it practically if we don't know what it is? Right? And by telling it what it is, I'm also a process of elimination person right, So in telling you and make offen a definition, let me tell you what it's not. It is not a wish, it is not an intention. A standard is a behavior that you repeat or require consistently. That's what a standard is. Is not what you say, it's what you repeat or require. Heavy on the or require, you feel me, because the fact of the matter is you gotta you know there's a standard or there should be a standard that you require for people to occupy respective spaces in your life. You understand what I'm saying. And a huge problem with that, and I'm getting off task now, but a huge problem with where we are and where we find ourselves is we find ourselves in these spaces where we don't have standards with regard to being in relationship with us, you feel me, and so your friends, family, romans, countrymen, neighbors, chickens, ducks, rabbits. They feel like in a lot of ways, they can just come however they want to come. They can just come however, we come and we just be. You feel me because your life reflects what you tolerate. So they come how they come. You tolerated it, then your life reflect it. Yeah. Yeah. A standard is a behavior that you repeat and or require consistently. Now what you say, what you repeat and or require consistently. Yeah. Now, there's a misunderstanding, right, and the mist uh uh. The misunderstanding that most people live inside is that they think progress comes from planning. Right, progress comes from planning, Like we think that progress comes from what you plan out. No, progress comes from execution supported by standards. That's your progress. Your progress is execution supported by standards. You don't rise to You don't rise to the level of your goals. Like you don't rise to your goals, you fall to your standards. You fall to your standards because your life reflects what you tolerate. Let that see, Like, you don't rise to your goals, you fall to your standards. You can have all the goals in the world, big old, healthy, lofty goals like me. I got some like I got. I Man, I'd be scared to tell people my goals because you can think I'm crazy. But I got goals that are out of this world. I don't rise to the level of my goals. I'm falling to the level of my standards. So I find myself at my standard even though my goals are up there. But I'm falling to my standard because you don't rise to You get what I'm saying. You don't rise to your goals. You fall to your standards. Yeah, you don't rise to your dreams. You do not rise to your dreams. You fall to your routines, the shit that you do routinely. I'm trying not to cuss. That's what you defer to. You defer to your teens, your habits, your expectations, your discipline period. Yeah, you say you want discipline and you want to live a disciplined life. You know that what you're trying to build requires discipline, Felix, you know that what you salute, bro, You know what you're trying to build requires discipline. A B. You know what you're trying to build requires discipline. So you say you want discipline because you want to you want to build this thing, and it requires discipline. But your bad time slips. You understand what I'm saying. And if your bed time slips, guess what your wake time is gonna slip. I'm talking to me. Your wake time is gonna slip, you feel me. And if your wake time is slipping, then guess what your focus is gonna slip. You see what I'm saying. It's like Domino's It's a Domino effect. Your focus is gonna slip. That's not bad luck. Like, that's not bad luck. That's not harsh conditions, that's not My life is just busy. My life is chaotic. My life is crazy. No, I have a standard problem. That's what that is. There is a standard problem, not a knowledge problem. That's a standard problem. There is a problem with the standard. Yeah, so let me ask you what standard in your life has been slipping lately, not collapsing, but slipping. Identify that you don't have to share. If you'll want to salute to everybody to the then live Thank you so much. I really truly, genuinely appreciate you. Shout out to the replay game man, y'all got my whole heart replay game and full effect. Man, I appreciate y'all. A replay game beholding it down for the territory, and shout out to the podcast family hashtag Junior Mafia and me first love. My first love be life for Melia. Salute to the family. Thank y'all, Thank y'all, Thank y'all. Podcast Going Nuts, replays Going Nuts, live stream Going Nuts. Man, I appreciate y'all. There's a standard problem, though. My brother Box and Barbecue said you one hundred percent correct. We got we got standard problems. Bro. You feel me because if you have a standard or you say that you want something right, and it's so easy for us to slip. Pittsburgh, big Doll, what's up with you, hummy, and it's so easy for us to slip, then the problem is the standard seven O folk Joe, what's up with you? Bro? Yeah, we got a standard problem. What standard in your life has been slipping lately? For me? Stub my wake time, my sleep time and wait time like it's man, I've been saying since the beginning of the year. Man, I gotta start going to bed. When I put the kids in the bed, I gotta go to bed shortly behind. You feel me, So I'm talking. I need to go so I can enter into rest and I don't just pass out on crash out. You feel me so that way that four point thirty a m. Wake up, I can get up and get moving instead of hitting the snooze button and laying there. You feel me. Thus we can start to show at about seven forty five ish instead of waiting until the eight forty five ish. Yeah, what standing in your life has been slipping lately? Not collapsing, but slipping, Because slipping, once again, is how decline begins. It starts with a slip, and it's so easy to overlook it because it's it's subtle, a subtle slip. But slipping is how the decline is, how decline begins quietly, gradually. Yeah. Yeah, Pittsburgh said them Knicks messed up your picks. He man, I'm I'm I'm cool on picking for a while. Man, I had chill out. You understand what I'm saying. I gotta chill out and I'll be you know the knicks they be. I'll be man with my heart. You feel my whole heart. Yeah, y'all be careful with that, man. And really, I'm asking y'all a question. Like I said, y'all don't have to answer, but I really want you to think about what's been slipping lately, what's been slipping? What little itty bitty things been slipping? And you pay attention to that. Yeah, you pay attention to that. So let's talk about expectation. Not other people's expectations either, your expectations of yourself. Y'all about to get mad at me. It's trouble man Tuesday. So we built for it. Let's talk about your expectations of yourself, right, because that's where your standard lives, your standard lives, and your expectation of yourself. You feel me. Even in the relationships that you have with other people that I'm talking about, Like, even when I tell you you got to require certain behaviors of others, that is your standard. That's not a standard that you have of them. The standard that you have. Of the expected or the behaviors of others is predicated on the standard that you have for yourself. You feel me. Yeah, So, like, for instance, like I have a standard of being solid, like no matter what, like I'm gonna be solid, right, So the standard is for people who are gonna be around me, especially in intimate spaces. I need you to be solid, you feel me. I need to be solid nothing of the grace that I've been mad since I read the title. I'll be trying to I be trying to tell like people be coming in like, oh, this is so great, this is so wonderful, and I'm like, Nah, you're gonna get pissed off one day? Is it just today? Just ain't your day. You're gonna get pissed off though, you feel me? Yeah, thatther been pissed since she read the title. Nah, the expectations you have for yourself, because that's where your standards live. Your standards live within the expectations that you have for yourself. Uh oh, I think that was another bar. Your standards live within the expectations that you have of yourself, and nobody wants to talk about those expectations that we have of ourselfs. You feel me. Some of us aren't even aware of the expectations that we have of ourselves. Actually, the majority of us don't expect shit from ourselves. If we gonna have a real conversation that's why you motherfuckers just be floating around the internet, the Internet wonder what's the word, wondering around the internet aimlessly every day. You understand what I'm saying, You don't have an expectation of yourself. So you just out here respectfully. I love you, But to just be out here sitting in your cubicle watching fight videos and shit, you understand what I'm saying. Yeah, sitting there watching a Diddy news and shit. Yeah, what expectation do you have of yourself? And that's where your standards live. Most people expect more from others than they expect from themselves. And that's the truth. Yeah, you hold other people to a higher standard than you hold yourself. Ain't that crazy? Most people expect more from others than they expected themselves. That's ass backwards. That ain't just backwards. That's ass backwards and discipline. People expect more from themselves. First, You understand what I'm saying. And that's why, like when you get like like when you get these in these spaces and you get you know, upset, like I'm always upset at myself first because. I'm like, shit, man, like I expect more of me. You understand what I'm saying, Like I expect more of me, Like I be disappointed when I be fumbling. Man, I've been fumbling lately. But I've been fumbling. You feel me, And I'm just like ah, and I expect more of myself. Man. Fuck trying not to cuss, but you get what I'm saying. Yeah, most people expect more from others than they expect from themselves. That's backwards. You expect more from yourself first. When you discipline, you look at your daily behavior. How do you start your day, how do you manage your time? How do you respond to discomfort uncomfortable situations? How do you finish your tasks? Those are the things that when you look at them, they reveal your real expectations of yourself, not your words, your actual behaviors. You feel me. I just gave y'all. I just kind of gave y'all to I won't say the blue I gave you a blueprint, not necessarily the because you know, I believe it's one hundred ways to get or it's a myriad of ways to get to a place. You feel me. I don't believe that it's just one right way. I think it's crazy to believe that there's just one right way in this experience we have in this universe. But there's one way. You look at your daily behavior. Look at how you start your day, look at how you manage your time, look at how you respond to discomfort, look at how you finish tasks. Those things are your real expectations. Do you even have tasks? You feel me? Because that's assuming that, y'all that everybody has tasks. Some people get up with no tasks, nothing we're trying to accomplish on the day. Like you're getting up and you got a day and you're not trying to accomplish anything. You feel me? Yeah, these are real, These are real, live things. Man. It's trouble man too, is that say? Y'all know we're going there? But yeah, yeah, yeah, y'all know how y'all know I ain't laying y'all know people who get up and don't have nothing to do, and you like em f because I'm trying not to cuss. You ain't got nothing to do? Yeah, yeah, la la da. And work tasks don't usually count no work work work, work task count, work task count, work task counts. But I don't mean but when I say task though, right, I mean the stuff that you do outside of you know, some stuff we do routinely because that's just a part of it. So we do stuff like now I gotta go to work, and then we lump everything that has to do with work within work, and then that's just that. But then also I also believe that, you know, honestly speaking, in this world, you got to give yourself some as well. Right, So you work on work stuff, for sure, you understand what I'm saying, because that's the fact of the matter. We work, So you work on your work stuff, right, But what task do you have to do for yourself? Like? What task do you have to do to improve your life? You understand what I'm saying, Like I don't know you chair? You know, you need to tighten up the chair in the one of your dining room chairs, and that don't get done. You feel me like when you say, I'm gonna get that chair tight in today. How do you finish tasks? Man? I need to pick that that that trash up. Man I gotta do this, Man, I gotta do that. How do you finish tasks? And those things reveal your real expectations of yourself, not your words, your behaviors. And here's the uncomfortable truth. You don't get what you want. You get what your standards allow. Your standards dictate what you get. And that's reality. That's not theory. You feel me, that's reality. That's not theory. Let me make it real one time for the fun time. You planned five things that you were gonna do this week. Five. You understand you planned five things, You complete it two, you delayed three. Now listen to me. That's not about capability. That's about expectation tolerance, what you allowed yourself to accept. You feel I'm gonna say it again. You planned to complete five things, you complete it two and then you delayed three. That's not about your capability. That's about expectation tolerance. So once again there should be some sirens going off. I said expectation tolerance. You should be saying, man, what the is expectation tolerance? You throw us, You threw us a curveball. Expectation tolerance is what you allow yourself to accept. That is what you allowed yourself to accept. Because you didn't say, man, I'm only accepting me doing these five things. You said nine two is cool. Delay three, that's expectation tolerance. Yeah, Because once again, when we go back, what do we say your life reflects what you tolerate. I'm not coming off of that, you feel me, I'm not coming off of that. Your life reflects what you tolerate. Yeah, and that is what you the two out of the three is what you allowed yourself to accept. So now let me ask you this and you can answer with a simple yes or no in your life. Have have you accepted less than your best recently? I have that's a yes for me. Have you accepted less than your absolute best lately? And when I say lately, I'll say from from January to now? Have you accepted in any instance? Have you accepted less than your best? Not perfection, but just your best? Right? Because when you accept less, and you. Do it repeated, repeatedly, you normalize decline. Family, like you literally normalized decline, and normalized decline becomes a lifestyle. When you you normalize decline, that becomes a lifestyle. So the next thing you know, you are living in a decline. Because guess what your life reflects what you tolerate. Y'all mad at me? Saluted my brother new fab boy fitness in the building. What's up? With you wild ass Indian shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I have accepted less than my personal best eas easily, easily. And to be honest with you, I've had moments, especially today in the last few days, where I've been ashamed of myself, like and I'm ashamed of that. You feel me? And he smacked me in the face yesterday. It smacked me in the face yesterday. And I'm gonna tell you how it smacked me in the face. It smacked me in the face because I realize that a lot of you are are here every day and y'all had absolutely no idea that the Simple Truth Network was there and has been up for shit four or five years. You feel me, like, had at growing What's what's up with you? Bro? Had absolutely no idea that that was up. That's me and that is me, excuse me, that is me and my my my. Expectation tolerance. Like that is me not doing my job. You feel me, that's me my not doing my job because I should be shotting from the rooftops every day, you feel me, I should be coming in here, hey man, come on over there. Y'all should be there, y'all should be there the moment y'all come over there. We can really get busy, you feel me. We can connect, we can go, we can have we can have these conversations that we can't have in here, and so on and so forth. We gotta have these conversations that the world don't want us to have. Yeah, normalized decline becomes a lifestyle, though, when we repeatedly accept less than our personal best. Yeah, all right, let's go deeper because we gotta get out of here. Because your standards aren't built once. Shut up and raise your standards. Your standards aren't built once. They're built daily, daily, every day. I say it, break by break by brick, break by break by brick, break by break by brick, break by break by brick. No, they're built every day, every every day. Your standards are built every day, break by break by brick, day in and day out. Man. Yeah, day in, day in and day out, day in, in, day out, repeated daily. And you know what else you gotta do when besides repeat them, You gotta protect them. You gotta protect them daily. And consistency is the guard that protects your standards, Not motivation, not hype, consistency Like this is a this is the this is the formula. What you wrap in the formula. Shout out to the DLC, this is the formula. Yeah, this is the formula. No motivation, no hype, just consistency. This consistency we have in our community. We have blaring examples of it. Go follow thriving and glow with Joe. She in the gym every day consistently. That protects her standards. None of the great every sundays are for yoga. Her and her sister over there. You feel me face down, asked up? Do stop it? Get it doing the yoga? Yeah, you feel me like that's it protects the standard big days. What's up with you? Hommy salute to my brother Rob Singleton man over there in the super chat Man. I appreciate you family. Thank you so very much, Bro, he says, have to drop five in the offering basket. You're preaching O Shi salute family. I appreciate you, BROB appreciate the support. I do, I do, I do, I do, I do I do. Consistency, man, is what guards It's the guard that protects your standards. It's not motivation, not hype, it's just consistency. Yeah, consistency is the evidence of your standards, not occasional effort, not burst of energy. Consistency. Remember, we've always talked about. Stuff being intense and intense in it intense and intensity versus consistency. Intensity. Ain't it those big bursts of energy though, that's cool, But that's not it. Consistency. You show up every day, I'm gonna be here, I'm here, be here, I'm gonna be here like I'm gonna be here every day. Consistency is the evidence of your standards. Yeah, salute de Lailah, she says. And Chrispy. Many times people make you bring in new standards, you go home upset because someone got too got too familiar with you and you said something disrespectful. So now you create a standard for that. Oh yeah, for sure, for sure. I'm gonna tell you how bad I am with the standard. I'm gonna tell you how bad I am with the standard. In my professional capacity, I have a standard that it's customary. Like when people it's so crazy and I'm and may God bless everybody that ever worked with me for real, especially towards the but you know the later years of me working, when people will come in, you can't just come in and just start talking to me. You feel me like a motherfucker, just walk up to me and just start start talking. I stop and look at them like they bastshit crazy. Bitch. You gotta speak to me, you feel me. You gotta come to me with an offering of respect and salutation. Hey, mister Robinson, how you doing? You feel me? Hey? How you doing? How you doing? You good? Everything good? You understand what I'm saying. If you a brother coming to talk to me, don't come and start talking to me and you ain't gave me no dabt motherfuck? Are you crazy? Are you out your mind? You feel me when you come in my office. When you walk in my office, you can't just barge in my office because I'm literally gonna ask you to step back out and re enter. You feel me, You gotta re enter with the right countenance. Man, When I talk to my my kids, now, you gotta fix your face when you're talking to me, I be on my kids. Fix your face when you're talking to me. Thrive and gold with Joe said, text too on my that's that's on my soul. When you text me, hey, man, blah blah blah blah. No, Hey, are you okay? Bro, is you cool? What's up? Bro? How you doing? What's subsystem? How you feeling? You feel me? No, you gotta you gotta nah. It's it's a standard, consistency. It's a standard. So you gotta so you have to la la d. You create standards for the way that people engage you and what you and what you what you what the requirement is because your your your life reflects what you tolerate. Now I'm trying to lead all alone because I could talk for another two hours because everybody's soul been out of shape and a comfortable at work. You understand what I'm saying, and we gonna do the work of work. But you so uncomfortable and you so been out of shape at work because your work life reflects what you tolerate. You feel me, your work life reflects what you tolerate. And y'all be tolerating. We be tolerating a whole lot of shit, a whole lot of shit, big dad said, Lo lad, I just experienced that last night, dropping beatol the line of debating with a a doctor and holder A B said, I got new standards as of today, sent a check in text to film even though I had passed beef with those who responded. Our prioritize those who didn't are consistently short. I'm done. Nah, don't be consistently short, bro, because there's a lot of energy that you put into that. You feel me. But the focus can be on move moving forward with who responded, and you can build on that. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. Come on, Nella, don't do that. Don't do that. Salut to my sister Nella the Great in the super chat, she said, she said, this hurt, but I appreciate you on the day. Now, Nella, we working, were working, and we're gonna continue to work because we gotta work. We ain't got shit else like this is it. We ain't got shit else, this is it. We ain't got this is it? Like Mike Jack. All right, all right right, let's get back to it. Let's get back to it. So consistency is the evidence of standards. Right, And here's the here's here's my turning point. The messenger, what's up with you, hommie. The moment you raise your standard, the moment the moment you raise your standards, you eliminate excuses, automatically shut up and raise the standard. The moment you raise your standard, you eliminate excuses automatically, the mere raising of your standards. Shut up and raise your standards, nah man. Automatically you eliminate excuses because the higher standards don't negotiate. They demand alignment. Like this shit demands alignment. When you raise your standard, it demands alignment. You don't feel like waking up. The standard still stands. You feel tired, the standard still stands. You feel me you feel distracted, The standard still stands. That's discipline. It's not emotional. That is structural discipline. Yeah. Yeah, Phelis Neona is laughing. Man, he said, offering of respect and salutations. That's real. Bro. You don't go up to people and just demand the shit. Bro, that's disrespectful. Like, I don't even I don't even do that. I'm sorry, I'm back off topic. People who waiting on me, I don't even do that. Like when I go a cashier, I always say how you doing? How are you And a lot of them be shocked like okay, I'm fine, and I'd be like, nah, how you really doing? You understand what I'm saying, nah man. I'm always gonna offer respecting salutations. If it's an older if it's an older black woman, I say, hey, mama, how you doing. When I walk past people, I speak if I'm in it, if I'm in anybody's area, If you sitting somewhere and I walk up, I might be walking past you. There was a lady who was sitting outside of my customers spot yesterday, sitting on a curb, and I got up out the van and I walked past her and I spoke to her. She was startled that I spoke, like, nah, man, I ain't now you always you offer respecting salutations, man, always, yeah, always, yeah, yeah, all right, man, I got a deep question. So we can get so we can get through and get out of here. Are your standards strong enough to survive this comfort? Are your standards strong enough to survive being uncomfortable? Yeah? Are they? Because weak standards are gonna collapse under pressure? You feel me? Are your standards strong enough to survive this comfort? I'm gonna give you an example. So you come in this. So you come in my like I told you. You walk up to me and start talking, and I. Say, and I'm looking at you, and then you talking, and then I'm looking and I ain't responding, and then there's this awkward silence where motherfucker looking at you like did you hear me? And then you say nothing. This is uncomfortable. This is uncomfortable for you. This is uncomfortable for me. But I have a decision that I have to make because I have the standard, and the standard Felix Noon there is is that when you come up to me, you're offering respect and salutations when you talk to me, same as I offer to you. So now we uncomfortable. It is my. Standard strong enough to withstand that discomfort. Am I gonna stick to my guns? Or I'm gonna fold and give you what you want? That's an example. It's a it's a bit of a fictitious one, or not really, because I've had that happen before. It's not fictitious. This is real life that I'm talking about. I'm standing there like and sometimes people need probing and I'll be like, hello, how are you? If you ever if you ever had that interaction with somebody that was them correcting you, you feel me when you go up and just start talking and they look at. You and they say hello, how are you? Yeah, yeah, King Whitey said, I think so yeah, are your standards strong enough to survive this comfort? Because your weak standards are gonna collapse under pressure. Strong standards are gonna survive pressure. That's identity. You feel me your strong your strong standards become your identity, not effort. That's identity. That's who I am. So now, motherfuckers. No, hey man, when you go over there and you go talk to Calvin, you gotta be respectful. You understand what I'm saying. Just like around here, motherfuckers know when you go over there to the Black Coffee Club, you go over there, you be respectful. Motherfuckers. No, hey man, when you go over to. The Punch Junkie podcast or when you go over to the Junior Junior on the Truth on Boxing, hey man, you gotta go be respectful. He ain't really there for the He ain't there for the bitch, bitch, bitch, this bitch. He ain't there for that. Like I'm not here for the disrespect, and I don't you'll re disrespect on these platforms because I'm I'm not that. I'm like, I'm one of them ones. I'm one of them ones. Strong standards are gonna survive pressure, and Big Dad says therapy session every couch, every couch, every couch time. I mean, excuse me, therapy session in effect couch time.

So we got to bring this in the room and then we go out of here. Let's talk honestly, no pretending you feel me, no pretending. Thes's questions for yourself? What standard do you need to raise? Right now? What standard do you need to raise? Right now? Nella the Great if you're still in here, Nella might be somewhere, she might have walked off, pissed off. What standard do you need to raise right now? Not later? Right now? You understand what I'm saying. You ain't got to share. You ain't got to share. You can drop it in the chat if you comfortable and you want to What standard do you gotta raise right now? Yeah? Now, where have you been talking instead of executing? Where have you been talking? Where in your life have you been talking instead of executing? I've been doing a lot of talk with this content shit, having been executing like I need to execute. That's just the truth. Where have you been talking instead of executing? That's real, like not planning talking. Where have you been talking instead of executing? Yeah, this is the hard one, but it's cool.

What behavior have you tolerated that doesn't match your potential? What behavior have you tolerated that doesn't match your potential? Yeah, Felix says, from myself for others both phone nah, from yourself, from yourself, we ain't worried about the others. From yourself, because awareness leads to adjustment. And adjustment leads to growth. Kids say, every day when we ain't fucking around, we not fucking around. What behavior have you tolerated that doesn't match your potential? All right, man, let's lock this shit in. Here's the truth. You don't get the life you want. You get the life your standards support. You don't get the life you want. You get the life your standards support. Robert Singleton said, laziness. Laziness is one of mine. I can own it. I've been lazy than the motherfucker. You don't get the life you want. You get the life your standards support, not your dreams, not your plans, your standards, your standards. Here's your takeaway. Stop talking, shut up and raise your standards. Shut up and raise your standards. Shut up and raise your standards. Not dramatically. You ain't gotta be all dramatic, not emotional. You ain't gotta be crying and shit when you do it consistently. Shut up and raise your standards. Raise how you wake up, Raise how you work, Raise how you finish, Raise how you show up. I just gave you the blueprint of blueprint, not doub blueprint of blueprint. Raise how you wake up, Raise how you work, work clean, raise, how you work, raise, how you finish, finish that shit through the line, raise, how you show up, raise, how you show up. Can't underscore what's up with your hommy? Raise how you show up. I be all my kids we be training, and be all my kids about their feet, Like I'm on them about their feet, I'm on them about their form, I'm on them about everything.

Raise it how you wake up, raise, how you work, how you finish, how you show up. People with high standards don't wait for motivation. When you have high standards, you don't have time to wait on the mystical force of that's floating throughout the without, throughout the universe, that's bestowing its grace upon individual beings. You feel me, You're not waiting on motivation. You rely on your structure. You trust your discipline, and you protect consistency because your standards aren't about pressure. Standards are about self respect, nothing less. Y'all see what I just did there? Your standards are not about pressure. Your standards are about self respect. Nothing less. Man, salute to y'all.
