I have a 13-year old niece that is ELITE in golfing, and is currently in the Junior World Championship golfing right here in Southern California.
She finished #8 today, making her part of the Top 10 percent IN THE WORLD.
Let that settle in for a minute.
At 13, she's at a higher level then almost everyone else.
So, what's the lesson to be learned about this?
How you see yourself is EVERYTHING.
In Tony Robbin's book, Awaken the Giant Within, he talks about this concept of who we believe ourselves to be.
This story drives everything else in our life.
We all have roles and what others may think about us, but the moment that we see who we are on an individual level we will create results that we desire to have in our life.
When you realize that nobody can touch you, you will manifest that belief and live it.
You will take on a new story that you are the best.
You must be willing to make that declarative stance and take on that mantle, your certainty will bring confidence that you WILL get what you are meant to receive.
In order to get to an elite level, you've got to see yourself as the best in the world. It's a declaration: "I AM the best."
It's not enough to make the declaration to maintain certainty, but to build on the skill sets and competency in what you're doing.
Ask yourself:
* What story am I telling myself about who I am?
* What story have I been telling myself that will lead to greatness?
* What are the skills that I need to develop to back that up?
Choose today that you ARE that #1 person, and guess what's going to happen? You will behave that way.

Over the last 4 weeks, I haven't been able to do my workouts like I did before hurting my knee.
The biggest battle isn't even in being able to work out to my full, physical potential, but with my mindsets.
I have to battle against thoughts, doubts and insecurities ALL over again. Excuses plague me more than tight muscles.
And excuses will ALWAYS come up.
Your mind will believe them and twist things around with hidden meanings trying to get us to fail.
My mind wants to go into pity mode and is telling me to go eat ice cream instead.
I have to look at what it is that I truly want.
Sure, ice cream sounds nice, but is it what I TRULY want if I want my life to be lived as one with prosperity?
So what do I REALLY want?
I want a body that is a weapon and on fire, healthy and ready to take me everywhere I want to go.
Ice cream won't do that for me.
I NEED to get back into my workout and not wait.
My mind is so good at rationalizing about what it is that I want RIGHT NOW, I have to focus on doing the work that's necessary.
If the nice guy inside of me isn't going to get the results that I need, I need to bring the Dark Warrior out.
I've talked about this side we all have inside of us that is the coaching that we do for ourselves, and it's NOT nice.
This Dark Warrior bitch-slaps the results back into us that we committed to do.
He tells us to let it out channels the inner rage in order to get me to do the fucking work NOW.
I'm channeling that anger into something that serves me.
When I get moving, like in the book Power vs Force, the more complacent I get, the more I need to get pissed off and wake the fuck up that I can do MORE and become better.
I KNOW WHAT I WANT, and life is too short to let excuses hold me back from the results that I desire to live the prosperous life I seek to maintain, uphold, and expand upon.
Ask yourself:
* What has been holding me back mentally from doing the work that I know is necessary?
* Where do I need to unleash the Dark Warrior from within in order to do the work?
* What are the steps that I can take TODAY to get me past the excuses?
It's required, even if it's imperfect, action that will get us the results that we need.

I recently shared a mini podcast about a grudge that accompanied a debt that I need to pay back for $18K.
Is that a lot of money?
Yes and no.
It depends on who's saying it, what you're spending it on, and how it affects your life.
If you are allowing $18,000 to dictate how you operate your whole life's happiness, by remaining stuck on not having it, is it worth it?
It's only money.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
My friend lost 7 YEARS of sleep, personal power and production because he let a grudge over money hold him back from confronting, resolving and moving forward.
Whether it's money or a person, there are experiences that we all go through and something to consider is to ask, "Is it worth it to me to hold onto the bitterness?"
For me, $18K out of $1 million+ wasn't as valuable to me as friendships.
How you handle anything is how you do everything.
Beating around the bush to bring something to someone else's attention is not done by powerful people.
Powerful people CONFRONT.
If something bothers you, tackle it head on and have the hard conversations. What you might find is that the conversation isn't nearly as hard as it is to maintain the bitterness that comes from not confronting those whom you feel wronged you.
If it's not serving you and helping you become a better person, GET RID OF IT!
Don't fake it but face it, meaning that if you pretend that something doesn't bother you on the outside but it's tearing you up on the inside, have the courage to tackle it head on
Ask yourself:
* What am I still holding onto and continue making it a big deal?
* Where can I confront something in my life that has been holding me back?
* What will my life look like by no longer having that grudge hold me back?
If you lack something, let's confront it with a direct conversation and move on.

Check it out.
I know that like me, we all have doubts, insecurities, negative thoughts and temptations that lead us against our true beliefs.
How do we overcome these thoughts?
It's not about CONTROLLING your thoughts...
You can't!
It's about recognizing patterns and surrounding your negative thinking with POSITIVE action.
How powerful is it that when you get consumed with negative thoughts, you shift that belief with a positive action?
Across the board, you can go and do the required work, even when you don't want to do it.
Surround the negative thinking with positive behavior.
If you can do that, you can take ANY negative situation and turn it around in your favor, creating an even greater result because of the positive action taking its place.
Ask yourself:
* Where have I allowed negative thoughts to consume me?
* What are some positive actions that I can maintain when faced with doubts and negative patterns?
* What good can come about from the turnaround I create by replacing negative thoughts with these positive actions?
When we create positive actions and results from what used to hold us back, we will create limitless opportunities for growth and prosperity.

I received an email from a close friend of mine that stated that he was going through his old emails and came upon one that I had sent him years ago about a promise that I made to pay back all of the money that I owed from when my life had hit rock bottom back in 2009.
I meant it then and I still mean it now that I will pay back the debts that I owe, but here's the point of that email:
Instead of confronting me about something that for 7 years this friend has had a grudge about, he used a passive aggressive tactic via email as a form of communication.
Instead of confronting me face to face for something that has been holding back his own growth, he resorted to an elaborate story of going through old emails and then sending one himself reminding me of the money that I owe.
For 7 years, this friend of mine has held a grudge because he thought that I took the money and then I never addressed it with him.
Yet not ONCE did this friend have the courage to confront me in person about what happened, even though we had dozens of face to face interactions since 2009 when I borrowed the money from him in the first place.
Are you holding onto a grudge from the past that in turn is holding you back from moving forward?
These bitter feelings have consumed him because he didn't confront me, which may mean that there are other things in his life that he also doesn't confront.
It is not worth it to hold onto the grudges from the past and address the issues that are holding us back.
This is what prosperity is about: confront and then move forward.
I know that I will pay back my debts, and so I have not been held back by this $18K debt that has been CONSUMING my friend because I haven't continually brought it up over the years.
Learn to let go of the grudge so that the real issue can be addressed.
Ask yourself:
* Where in my life am I holding back my own growth because of someone else's interaction with me?
* What is a grudge that has been holding me back from growth?
* What is an action that I can take today to address this grievance?
If there is something that is holding you back, address it. Don't let it consume you.

A few weeks ago I hurt my knee, and even the simplest movements were very painful.
I'm sure that you've hit plenty of hiccups in your life as well, and when this occurs, our thoughts go to a place of scarcity.
With negative thoughts, lies, focusing on the impossibilities, what we CAN'T do and operating with that frame of mind, we produce little to no action.
It becomes a battle to do the simple things once we fall into this pit of negativity.
I know that my mind is a liar when I get to this state.
I get asked within my mind, "What's the use?"
I've already failed, so why should I pick myself back up?
Because I want to live a life of prosperity, that's why!
I must surround my negative thoughts with positive actions.
DO SOMETHING!!!
If I don't do something, I end up getting NOTHING.
There's a piece of our brain that will always tell us that we shouldn't do anything.
Do it anyway.
There will be days of struggle.
It's inevitable.
Solutions don't magically come to us until we DO SOMETHING that will then create a deep momentum towards the results that we desire.
"Be ye doers of the word and not hearers only."
It's not too late.
There's got to be a part of you that can do something.
Always.
Listen to the part of you that states that you want specific results, and then do something.
Retrain your mind that wants you to do nothing and RISE UP.
Ask yourself:
* Where have I given up on something in my life because of a hiccup or trial that threw me off course?
* What are some positive actions that I could surround my negative thoughts with?
* What can I do today in my life that will bring results that I desire?
Be who you were born to be and take decisive action.

On a coaching call today, we had a conversation about seminar attendance by those who love to learn from others.
This gal that I was talking to attends all of these seminars, in fact, she's a serial seminar attendee, and yet she's STILL broke!
How are these things working for you if you're not seeing the results?
The programs only work if you live the content and apply it to your life.
Are you like that?
STOP THE MADNESS!
The revolution is about results and transformation, NOT being in bondage about the old.
If you don't think that it's a MUST to change your life today, than you're wasting everyone's time with your serial seminar attendance.
It's the same as creating a vision board and believing in the law of attraction but not doing anything with it.
If you fail to do anything with that which you learn, it's not the speaker, but YOU that is lacking in producing the results.
You will not see change until you refuse to live that serial existence you have become such an "expert" on.
Do you realize that you are simply an asshole behind closed doors when you don't apply what it is that you learn?
God didn't put us on this earth to be hypocrites.
The point of learning is to get results.
When you're ready to do something with those lessons that you've learned and live what it is that you know, THEN we can talk.
It doesn't do anyone any good to be mentally masturbating about topics if you don't do anything with it.
There's got to become a point that you say that enough is enough.
GO DO WHAT IT IS THAT YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.
Apply what it is that you learned to do.
If you want REAL wealth, health and spiritual connection, WAKE UP!
Do something different.
Quit attending seminars if you're not going to do anything with it.
Ask yourself:
* Am I the serial conference attendee and yet don't do anything with it?
* Why is it a must that I absolutely change my life today?
* What are some principles that I can apply that I have been learning about?
Get up off of your ass and do something about all of the principles you have been learning.

Did you ever meet an "askhole?"
You know, the type that asks questions, but never intend to do anything with it?
They think that they look good to others by asking lots of questions, but they don't even care about other people and don't intend to do anything with it.
Do you know the type?
Have you ever been an askhole yourself?
STOP IT.
Asking questions are a great part of living, but if you don't plan on doing anything with it, stop wasting your time and don't bother others with empty questions.
You're wasting other people's time.
You're also wasting your own time, and you're wasting your life.
Learn to ask better questions, genuinely seeking an answer.
Ask yourself:
* Where in my life have I been an "askhole?"
* What are some genuine questions that I could ask others?
* What is something I can do today to ask better questions?
If you're ready to do something about the questions that you ask, then go and DO what it is that you ask about.

We celebrated the 4th of July fireworks with my family, and fits were thrown all night (and not just by my boys).
There were many lessons about doing hard things.
And it didn't work.
I chastised my boys because they FORGOT by becoming short-sighted when we are not reminded of how much we really have.
"The Lord chastens those whom the Lord loves."
I tag-teamed with my wife and my boys learned that I REFUSE to have sons that are weak in body and mind.
Life is meant to have challenges; the luxuries that we have in life came at a cost. They were not given to us.
I reminded them, and I was reminded that "Remember, remember, that thou was once in bondage"
The Gali family does NOT fall down and die.
My boys need to understand that the lifestyle that we're creating cannot be an entitled one.
When we hit adversity, we strive to become stronger.
We have to learn how to go through life either the hard way or the easy way. The "hard things" that we do when we're exhausted and tired are easier than living an entitled life expecting life to be given to you, because eventually gratitude must be learned.
WE MUST LEARN TO BE GRATEFUL WHEN WE HAVE IT!
When we don't have something, it's AMAZING how grateful we become. We long and wish for that which we used to have.
Ask yourself:
* Where can I show more appreciation for what I currently have?
* Am I teaching my children to be grateful and displaying love in how I teach them?
* Where can I course correct immediately when I see myself or my family ungrateful?
Instead of living with regret for not being grateful, take time to step back and recognize the gifts that we're given who we have a life of plenty.

I am now 40 years old, and there are a few lessons that I wanted to share with you.
There's a Top 5 Lessons of Living for you, in fact.
Life is too short to play small and have regrets, especially when you know that you have been called to do great things (and here's a little hint: we ALL have been placed on this earth with this possibility)
So, without further ado, here you go:
First, when you have goals, you have a purpose behind why you do what you do. You have an end result motivating you to continue.
Write them down and share them with others.
Second, when you surround yourself with greatness, you will naturally raise your standards.
If you want to change your life, change your environment and those you associate with if they are not pushing you to become better than you were yesterday.
Third, when you have a coach or someone that is professional in a field that you are pursuing, you have someone giving you examples through leadership.
You can also be a coach; to someone somewhere in your life, you are a coach to someone and can make a difference in their life.
Fourth, don't be afraid to work hard. Surround your negative thoughts with positive action. You can get out of ANY situation through HARD WORK.
Don't be afraid to work hard and do hard things. It's not always sexy, but there is great value in knowing the importance of how to work hard.
Fifth, when you believe in a Higher Power, you know that you have a Higher Purpose. I believe in God, there is NO doubt about that because I have had too many experiences in my life that He has led people and experiences to help me become better.
I hope that you document some of your lessons that you have learned in your life as well and then record or document them for your posterity and others to learn from.
Ask yourself:
* What have I been doing that is an accomplishment in my life?
* Am I doing hard things that are allowing me to grow?
* How have the lessons in my life helped me become the person that I am today?
If you live a life that teaches you lessons, share what you have learned as a way of paying it forward and I guarantee you will see a turn around in prosperity!

When you have clarity, you are CLEAR about what you want.
More importantly, you know what it is you want and why is matters.
Yes, I've talked about clarity being power before, but it's a topic that needs to be looked at many times because we are constantly needing to get clear about where we are so we know where to go.
How do we do that?
Start where you are TODAY.
Take a look at your life: where you are with your body, your relationships in your home and business and your spirituality.
Do you like what you see?
If this assessment is a life that gives you purpose and puts a smile to your face, keep up the great work!
If there's an area that you're in a lose-lose game of, in which you never have enough or your relationships aren't where they are, knowing where you are gives you the foundation for moving forward.
Don't EVER settle for weak results.
Those that are content with not having success will not be able to prosper.
Guess what? The life that you're living today is YOUR responsibility. It's on you and gives you a clarity of direction.
How do get out of mediocrity?
You may need to get angry with where you're at and make the conscious decisions about what you want.
What's the measurable outcome? How would we know that you have arrived?
Life goes fast and life is short.
If you were to attend your own funeral, would you be happy with what was said?
Declare what it is that you want to create and what kind of life you want to live.
By declaring a bold, THIS IS WHAT I WANT and THIS IS WHO I AM you know where you're going, who you want to be and what you want to create.
Clarity gives you direction to move and grow.
It's time to go.
Ask yourself:
* Am I happy with where I'm at right now in all areas of my life?
* What do I truly want?
* Why do I want it?
If it's too difficult to state what you want, decide what it is that you DON'T want and go from there.

The greatest battles will be fought within the chambers of your heart.
I'm going through a Drift right now, which is a part of my darkness. I'm unsure about what direction I need to take.
When you are challenged and unclear about what road to take, there are some distinctions that occur in finding specific clarity.
Now, keep in mind that a Drift isn't a bad thing at all. It's an opportunity to discover a gift to uncover a divine gift and lesson to help us realign, recalibrate and shift.
When you're in darkness, be still. Instead of getting all riled up, maintain the path that you know will get you to the result that you want.
We cannot rely on the testimony of other people to get us out; we need to learn to be OK with going into Drifts after hitting success.
Be OK with lighting the fire in the darkness, or in other words, you need to listen.
If we trust, we can light our own fire and brighten ourselves to shine our light as an inner peace.
Every great thing that has ever come about in my business has come after going through some major Drifts.
We all have challenging times and trials, but success comes from listening to the Voice, which means that we may need to give up some things.
I have all of these things that I'm doing right now within the last 6 months, and it'll be exciting to see what will happen in the next 6 months and beyond, but it also comes with its struggles.
It's OK if you're in a place that's lacking certainty. Your outcome may be in finding a way to light your way out of the darkness.
Life is too short to not live your calling and your purpose. The Drift will continue, but so will the gifts and revelations.
Ask yourself:
* Can I trust myself within the process of a Drift?
* What am I getting from this podcast?
* Can I light the fire within?
Even when you're in the middle of a Drift, when you truly know who you are, you will find the gifts and lessons as lights within the darkness.
The Reverend is going through a difficult time right now as I'm about to turn 40 in few days.
This isn't a bad thing, but still one that is teaching me a bunch of lessons in life.
I want to live the purpose that I have been called to live, but I have got to make decisions and choices when I'm actually feeling lost, uncertain and stuck.
I'm become caught in a Drift.
What is this? A mental state found within in which there are lessons to learn amongst a little bit of confusion and lack of clarity
So what do I do?
BREATHE.
Go ahead. Take a deep breath right now, through the nose.
You'll find that simply taking the time to breathe will sometimes give you enough time and clarity.
I also then ask, "Who am I and what is the purpose of my life?"
I know that I want to live a meaningful life, being guided by God. But I also refuse to hide behind the Drift.
Listen and you'll receive more as you ask the questions of who you want to bring into my life.
We all have our own challenges and Drift.
And that's OK. Drifts are not bad. It's a way to calibrate where we want to be in life.
When you Drift, don't beat yourself up about it; do these simple acts like breathing, listening/slowing down.
Be still and listen. Eventually you'll find the clarity and the answers brought on by the Drift.
Ask yourself:
* Who am I and who do I need to bring into my life to maintain?
* What is the purpose of my life?
* What do I want to create?
If the Voice doesn't speak, you still need to make a choice and MOVE. Can you listen and trust the answers that are inevitably coming within the Drift?
