The Challenger Gets The Unstoppable Mentality

The number one thing we need more than anything to win is hunger, which comes from a state of desperation. Like, do you want it so badly that you're desperate for it? So you are going to fight, and that's why most of the time, the challenger beats the champ.

The greatest athletes, the Kobes, the Bradys, and the Jordans of sports, have a way of feeding their hunger all the time and increasing it. What separates them isn't just their work ethic, isn't just their talent, although those things matter, isn't just how they practice.

What separates them is that they're just hungrier. They somehow find a way, as they climb up the ranks and win a championship, to get even hungrier. They somehow find a way to get even hungrier. They somehow find a way, as they climb up the ranks and win a championship, to get even hungrier.

Success is allergic to average. Success and average have nothing to do with each other, so you can't say you want to be successful if you can't say there are certain dreams and goals.

The things you want to have The things you want to be. If you are still average, you have got to get to the point where you are allergic to average. You don't think average You don't perform average. Your mommy might put up with it, your daddy might put up with it, but nobody really likes average.

When you're great, you attract great people. When you're average, you attract average people. I need you to grind every single opportunity you get. Every chance you get, don't just go to work when you feel like it.

To work every single day, working on it every day, even when you are down and out, even when you're not feeling it, still do it. Why?

Because I read that if you are faithful over a few, he will make you ruler over many. People that are the hungriest find a way when you're starving. You become desperate when you know why you want something.

When it's desperation, because when you're desperate you find reserves and reservoirs of ideas and talents that you didn't know you had when you find yourself in a desperate situation, some of you are lying to yourselves.

You say you want to be great; you say you want to get to the next level; you say you want to be dominant in that field; you say you want a promotion; you say you want to start your own business, but you talk too much. Shut up, get in the lab, and let's go to work.

You know exactly what you're afraid of. You know exactly what you've been avoiding, and you've got to decide to change it. You know exactly what it is. Don't be anybody.

Do you know what you need to do differently? You know the changes you need to make. You reap what you sow. Don't get it twisted now. If you don't see what you think
