TIME TO GET IT TOGETHER ONCE AND FOR ALL
Nine chapters, dozens of voices, one relentless argument: the person you need to become will cost you the person you are.
June 16thThe argument in one line.
The reset you are waiting for will never feel safe or ready — it begins the moment you stop outsourcing your authority to circumstances, other people's approval, or the fear of falling again.
Read if. Skip if.
READ IF YOU ARE…
- You are in a low period and need a reframe on why it is happening, not just reassurance that it will pass.
- You reliably meet your obligations to others but struggle to follow through on your own commitments.
- You know what you need to do but keep waiting until conditions feel right.
- You have outgrown people in your life and feel guilt or confusion about that.
- You are drawn to high-production motivational content as a daily ritual or pre-workout habit.
SKIP IF…
- You want tactical, step-by-step instruction — this is entirely mindset and philosophy.
- You want sourced, attributed ideas; all voices are unidentified throughout.
- You find ambient motivational compilation formats emotionally hollow rather than energizing.
The full version, fast.
This compilation argues that transformation is not a feeling you wait for — it is a decision you make. The first half builds the case through 12 distinct thematic blocks: gratitude as the baseline, alignment of heart and action, anxiety interrupts, safety-seeking programming, vision, self-respect, and the compounding power of consecutive good decisions. The final seven minutes deliver a dedicated essay on the comeback — reframing rock bottom not as an ending but as the foundation for rebuilding. The practical core: cut negative thinking more aggressively than you cultivate positive thinking, commit to the process without attachment to outcomes, and start before you feel ready.

00:00 – 00:47
01 · Cold Open — Gratitude as the baseline
150,000 people died yesterday. You are still here. Frames everything: alive-ness is already the win.
00:47 – 01:40
02 · Alignment — Heart, mind, energy, action
Where your heart is, there is the mind; where the mind is, there is the intention; there is the energy. When four do not match, the universe gets a confused signal.
01:40 – 03:03
03 · Struggle is the curriculum
Green lights only — what would life be for? Freud: the struggle will strike you as most beautiful. The mind minimizes regret. Why torture yourself in the interim?
03:03 – 04:43
04 · Anxiety interrupt and safety programming
Anxiety is future-thoughts triggering a body alarm. 5-4-3-2-1 interrupt. We are programmed from birth to seek safety. Ownership of your programming is the work.
04:43 – 06:12
05 · Energy, vision, keeping at the top
The energy you give is the energy you get. A vision helps you see past current circumstance. Nothing fails like success.
06:12 – 07:48
06 · Self-love as discipline, belief as foundation
Self-love is doing things you do not want to do that are good for you, over and over. Fear is what makes the tightrope fall you. Self-confidence: belief regardless of odds.
07:48 – 09:05
07 · Excellence, imperfection, burnout
You do not have to be perfect to start. Excellence is a process. Goals like a bridge built brick by brick. Stop living someone else's dream.
09:05 – 11:21
08 · Social pain, growth, decisions
The source of loneliness is people — misreading them, bumping into them. Growth vs. stagnation. Every decision compounds.
11:21 – 12:48
09 · Seasons, acceptance, negative thinking
Every season expires. Let go of control. Cut negative thinking more than you add positive. The villain voice can be shut up.
12:48 – 14:50
10 · Commitment without attachment, champions
Committed to the process, not attached to results. Champions made on the other side of not feeling like it. Lose, learn, come back, get better.
14:50 – 16:36
11 · Self-respect and the blacksmith parable
Why follow your boss but ignore yourself? The blacksmith parable: hardship is hammer and fire, you are the steel. A good life makes you good.
16:36 – 18:15
12 · Outgrowing people, doing it for yourself
Every path to greatness leaves certain people behind. Do it for yourself. Life does not move without your action.
18:15 – 20:42
13 · Isolation as clarity, readiness myth, avoidance
Being alone lets you speak to the only person always on your page. You will never feel ready. Avoidance is just another form of fear.
20:42 – 27:47
14 · The Art of the Comeback
Dedicated closing essay. The spiral feels endless. Every person who rebuilt stood exactly where you are. The comeback is slow, hard, lonely, daily. Rock bottom is not your destination — it is your foundation.
Lines worth screenshotting.
- The reset you are waiting for will never feel safe — your brain is designed to protect you by saying maybe tomorrow.
- 70% of your negative thinking goes unperceived by you; cutting it matters more than adding positive thinking.
- Familiar feels safe. You are programmed to stay small, play victim, seek validation, and repel money — all because it is safe.
- Nothing fails like success — the legends at the top keep trying to get better, not coast.
- Self-love is not bubble baths and days off. It is doing things you do not want to do, over and over, because they are good for you.
- You follow your boss's instructions reliably. You ignore your own. That asymmetry is the problem.
- Every season has an expiration date on both sides — grief ends, and good times end. Neither is permanent.
- Be committed to the process without being emotionally attached to results. If the outcome changes, does it change who you are?
- Goals are not a leap across a canyon — they are a bridge built one skill-brick at a time.
- The comeback is not glamorous. It is slow, hard, lonely, and filled with doubts. That is exactly where the change happens.
- Rock bottom is not your destination. It is your foundation.
- Being alone is a chance to speak to the only person always on your page.
- Your path to greatness will inevitably leave certain people behind. Spending energy keeping them up costs you your own trajectory.
- Every decision, no matter how small, moves you either closer to or farther from your destination — and consecutive bad decisions compound.
- The struggle will strike you as most beautiful in retrospect. You know this. So why torture yourself in the interim?
The reset starts with a decision, not a feeling.
WHAT TO LEARN
Transformation does not begin when conditions improve — it begins the moment you take ownership of your own programming and stop waiting to feel ready.
- Your brain is designed to protect you from change by making delay feel responsible — waiting until you feel ready is the protection mechanism, not wisdom.
- Cutting negative thinking delivers more leverage than cultivating positive thinking; 70% of negative self-talk goes unnoticed, which means awareness is the first intervention.
- Commitment to a process while detaching from outcomes keeps you in motion when results are slow — attaching identity to outcomes is what causes people to quit.
- Every decision, however small, compounds in one direction or the other; a streak of good decisions does not just add, it multiplies.
- Self-love is a behavioral practice, not a feeling — it is the repeated act of doing what is good for you even when you do not want to, and being patient with yourself through it.
- The people you have outgrown are not your responsibility to carry forward; spending energy on that tradeoff costs you your own trajectory.
- Rock bottom strips away illusions and false foundations — the rebuild that follows can be built on something real for the first time.

“Nothing fails like success.”

“Self-love is just doing things you do not really want to do, but you know are good for you, and then trying to be kind to yourself in the process.”

“Why do you listen when your boss tells you to do something, but you could not care less when you tell yourself to do something?”

“A good life is not a life that is easy. A good life is a life that makes you into a good person — and that, my son, is a hard life.”

00:03One hundred and fifty thousand people died yesterday. Do you actually get that? And you are still here, and you can't find something to be grateful for?
00:12You're still complaining about teeny tiny little struggles. But I bet that if it was possible to give an option to all 150,000 people, all of them would gladly change places with you right now.
00:24You're alive. Your heart is beating. You have food, water, shelter, clothing, a few people that love you.
00:31You have so much to be grateful for. You have to learn to stop focusing on what you don't have and start focusing on what you do have.
00:40Because life isn't about having what you want, it's about being grateful for and wanting what you already have.
00:48Whatever is important to you, where your heart is, there is the mind. Where the mind is, so where the intention is, there is the energy.
01:00Where the energy is, there is the creation. So if your heart is hanging on something, but your actions are doing something else, that just means your energy and what your heart really wants, they are not merging at all.
01:14So the universe doesn't know what do you want, what should the universe give you now. So for me, it's all about alignment.
01:22What I feel inside aligns with what I talk. It aligns with what I think. It aligns with what my actions do.
01:30It aligns optimally with the proper circumstances. When everything is aligned, then the energy can just flow.
01:38Then it just flows and it just happens.
01:41If life was nothing but green lights and we didn't have yellows and reds, then what the hell would it all be for? We need the yellows and the reds.
01:50That's how we evolve. Go fail more. Go fail more.
01:54Forget them. Those people on the sideline that are saying the thumbs down or calling you something or being snarky, they're on the sidelines for a reason.
02:04Freud said once, in retrospect, the struggle will strike you as most beautiful. Like the years of struggle will strike you as most beautiful.
02:12And it's true, you think about the worst moments of your life from earlier. Now they're integrated into who you are and in some ways we understand that we couldn't and wouldn't be where we are without those things. We know not only is that true in a positive way, but it's also just true in how the mind works.
02:29Like the mind is really good at this is what cognitive dissonance does. It works on you in a way that makes this thing for the best even if it wasn't for the best. Like we're so worried about, will I regret it?
02:40You won't regret it because you actually don't have that many regrets at all. The mind is pretty good at minimizing that feeling of regret.
02:48We convince ourselves that what happened was for the best. So we know this is almost certainly where we're gonna end up in six months, in a year, in ten years, in thirty years. And so why torture yourself in the interim?
03:00Right? Why not give yourself some of that grace now?
03:04Anxiety is literally nothing more than you thinking about something in the future and thinking about it in a manner where it starts to sound an alarm in your body.
03:15First of all, if you catch yourself worrying, if you catch yourself out in the future catastrophizing, if you catch yourself in that what if this, what if that, if you let your thoughts spin, it will spin you out of control and then you're gonna start to feel anxious.
03:30And so you wanna count backwards, five four three two one, and one of the best most effective things you can insert as a different pattern is this. What if it all works out? What if it all works out?
03:40What if I get on this plane and even though it's bumpy, it still lands and it all works out? Because you can't argue with that.
03:46If you can stabilize your thoughts, your body settles down and it doesn't escalate. So you're gonna interrupt the worry, five four three two one, and then you insert something else.
03:55You can also say this moment will pass. You can say I can handle this, but you've got to interrupt those thoughts and insert something else.
04:05And Familiar feels safe. We are programmed every day to seek safety. Programmed to avoid discomfort because it's safe.
04:13Programmed to stay small because it's safe. Programmed to play victim because it's safe. Programmed to seek validation because it's safe.
04:20Programmed to repel money because it's safe. We are programmed from the moment that we were born to childhood our environment, to the people that we hang out with, to the music that we listen to, to the news that we watch, to the television shows that we binge. We are programmed to seek safety, but it is your responsibility to take ownership over your programming or else you're gonna live life asleep.
04:41And what's the point of that?
04:47The energy that you give is the energy that you get, and that's with everything. You know? That's with your mentality.
04:51That's with the things that you say. That's with the people that you hang out with. So it's so important that you surround yourself with people that's gonna fill you with life and things that's gonna fill you with life.
04:59And don't do things that's gonna take life out of you. Make sure make sure make sure that your vibration is high, your energy is high, that your energy and efforts and your mortality is in a great spot. I mean, most days are gonna be good and bad.
05:13Right? You have to learn how to embrace where you are with the bigger vision and the bigger picture in your heart and in your mind. Right?
05:20That's what that's the point of a vision. A vision is to help you see past this the current circumstance. Right?
05:28So if you're in a tough situation. Right? Or in a tough circumstance, what having a vision for your life does is it helps you to see past that.
05:36I know that where I'm at is just a stepping stone. It's just a moment in time in a greater vision.
05:45Exercise more, push more magic into the market place, give more value to people, read more books. It's harder to keep on pushing, but that's what legendary is.
05:56See, the great legends are the ones that are at the top of the mountain and they keep on trying to get better. So I suggest to you with great respect that nothing fails like success.
06:13Just a friendly reminder that sometimes, a lot of the time, self love is just doing things you don't really want to do, but you know are good for you, and then trying to be kind to yourself in the process over and over and over and over and over again.
06:55Jesus will destroy you and take everything that you ever wanted from you if you let them.
07:02The ability or the belief to believe in yourself to to accomplish any task no matter the odds, no matter the difficulty, no matter the adversity.
07:13The belief that you can accomplish it, self confidence.
07:19You wait to be perfect before you start. You may never start. Excellence is a process.
07:28Process. It happens when you do your best over and over again.
07:37You don't have to be perfect to begin. You don't have to be perfect to appreciate yourself. You don't even have to be perfect to be loved or to love.
07:53You could all tightrope walk. You could walk down a straight line without worrying about anything, but you take that exact straight line and put a 20 story high and you move the balconies, you're gonna be so concerned about the idea of falling that it will make you fall and that's where the superpower is in removing the fear.
08:13People get frustrated not achieving what they want because they assume that they're going to jump across a cavern in one lead. But if you picture your goals like you're trying to build a bridge across that crevice and every brick that you put on that bridge is progress.
08:31And each one of those bricks represents a skill that you need to learn along the way. It just takes all the way until you get to the other side that you can actually walk across. And so the walking across is the outcome.
08:42It's the external perceived achievement.
08:45The best way to avoid burning out is to stop living someone else's dream. Is to stop waking up every morning to help them fulfill their vision and their goals and their dreams.
08:58And you start working towards yours.
09:06To be a human being in this world means inevitably we feel pain. We all go through this. We all have moments of loneliness, of depression, of feeling like we don't have a purpose in life, being aimless, of not having energy, of being depressed, etcetera, etcetera.
09:22And when we have these moods, we try to explain them, well, yeah, maybe it's because I woke up this morning or because something happened earlier the day before or something in my child, something's wrong. But I wanna tell you, the source of your pain is the fact is your social life.
09:39It's the fact people are the source of your pain, that you misunderstand them, that you misread them, that you're constantly bumping into them and having these problems and these issues that I mentioned. That is why you feel lonely.
09:52That is why it's draining you all of this turmoil, all of these emotions are draining you of your energy, and it is making you listless. It is making you confused.
10:03And people might say, yeah, but what's the point of of this growing growing? What do you mean by growing? Why would I always need to accept every challenge just for the sake of growing?
10:17Because this growing is the opposite of something is decreasing, something is dying, something is closing up.
10:28To grow, to open up is the same as to bring light into the things.
10:40Every decision matters. With every decision you make, you are either moving closer or farther from your destination. Every single one, no matter how small it may seem, deciding whether to sleep in or not, go to the gym or not, eat at McDonald's or not, it all contributes to either progression or regression.
10:58It is important to note that the more consecutive good or bad decisions you make will exponentially increase their impact. If you continue to make bad decisions, your state of being will decrease drastically.
11:12Likewise, if you continue to make good decisions, your life will drastically improve. Therefore, do not underestimate the power your gift of choice bears.
11:23Every season has an expiration date on both sides. With grief, that will come to a close and you'll be okay on the other side, but then also your good times will also have an expiration date.
11:33So learn to be really grateful for those good times. That's been the biggest lesson for me.
11:38Let go of control and accept the things that happen to you and then learn to love them.
11:46I have to learn to love it. I don't have to understand what happened, but I have to learn to love that this is my experience and it's a part of it.
11:55And all I can do is move through it to the other side.
11:59Which do you think is more important? More positive thinking or less negative thinking? Which is more important?
12:06Where do you get the most mileage? It's less negative thinking. About 70% of our negative thinking goes unperceived by us.
12:15It is so embedded. Positive thinking is important. You keep it up, keep it high.
12:22But if you wanna get your real knowledge, just cut down on the negative thinking. Cut it down.
12:28Cut it down. Cut it. That's the villain voice.
12:30That's the critic in your head. That's the demotivator. That's the disc discounter.
12:35That's the one that raises the doubts. It takes practice. It takes some discipline, but you can shut it up.
12:49And you be committed to the process of what you're doing without being emotionally attached to the results of what you're doing. In other words, if the outcome changes, does it change who you are, what you said, and what you seek to accomplish?
13:03Because for most of us when we don't get what we want, a champion is made on the other side if I don't feel like it. Right? Everybody that gets up every single day, they might not feel like it.
13:13But there's certain cast that's gonna embrace it and figure out a way to get better. There's other cast gonna retreat, they're gonna quit, and they're gonna settle in a mediocre.
13:23The thing that they all have, all the great ones have, they have this unstoppable belief in themselves. And even if they lose, they just they learn.
13:30They lose, they learn, they come back, they get better.
13:34But you have these, like, missions that you have to complete to get to the next level. And then when you go through your day, people distract you. There's loads of distractions.
13:42They're everywhere. You know what I mean? They're just there to sway you off your path of what you woke up in the morning to think and to do to get you to the next level of your game.
13:55Everyone has the possibility to unlock something very, very special about him or herself.
14:02And it's up to your actions. Ultimately, it's you yourself who also is able to unlock it.
14:14Why do you listen when your boss tells you to do something, but you couldn't care less when you tell yourself to do something? Why do you have an alarm set to get to work on time, but there's no alarm to show up for yourself on time? You know, there's obvious consequences when you don't do what you're supposed to at your job, but how do you not see the consequences of poor self respect?
14:38Tell yourself to do things and do them and listen because you said so, nobody else.
14:47That is the key to overcoming yourself.
14:52It's taken you your whole life to become the person that you are today. So don't get upset with yourself if becoming an entirely new person doesn't happen overnight. It's a process, a journey, an adventure, not some project you can knock out in a couple of days.
15:10You have to be singular, inflexible, unyielding in your own works so that even the struggle, that very struggle to achieve becomes its own reward.
15:20A hard simple ability to continue is a kind of blessing. The world may think of it as obsession here.
15:26Besides being sentimental, it's beside the point. Dreaming is a way of trivializing the process, the obsession that carries you through the failure as well as the successes which could be harder to get through.
15:37And if you're dreaming, you're sleeping. And it's important. An imperative to always be awake to your feelings, possibilities, your ambitions, and don't get hung up on the consequences because they can be good like awards, success, and even celebrity, and they can be bad like no awards, no success, and no celebrity.
15:56Can you talk to creator of the universe before birth and pick the person you get to become? You say, I wanna be the most courageous. The creator replies and says, well then I will give you monsters to terrify you so that you can conquer them.
16:08And you say, well, I wanna be patient. Well, then I will make you work harder and longer so you can learn to wait. I wanna be wise.
16:13And the creator replies, then I will give you failures that will crush your spirit so you can learn the value of judgment. You then say, sounds like a rough life. Can you give me a good life?
16:21Creator replies, just like we measure the quality of a blacksmith by the strength of his steel, I measure you by what you are at the end, not the fire and the hammer it took to make you. A good life isn't a life that's easy. A good life is a life that makes you into a good person, and that my son is a hard life.
16:38There's not a single individual in this room to their path to greatness that hasn't left friends behind, that haven't left individuals behind. We outgrow certain individuals. We outgrow the way they think.
16:49We outgrow the way they act. We try to bring them along with us but they some of us just don't have the ability to to do that. And you spend so much time on them that you forget to chase your own dreams.
17:02When you gonna start doing it for you? When you gonna start going after your success for you and stop thinking you need everybody else around you? You don't need their support.
17:14You don't need their love. You don't need their respect. The only love, respect that you need is yours.
17:25You need to do it for you. This is a season of your life you need to be doing it for yourself. You need to be getting your health right, getting your body right.
17:36Understand that life don't go nowhere without your action.
17:42Being alone is a harsh necessity and if I'm fully transparent, I'd say most of my life was defined by just that. It's not that there weren't people around me, but I got to a certain point in growing up where I was almost certain that nobody would ever understand.
17:58You see, to be alone is very hard, and it's a constant pursuit in my life to get further from that, but I retain moments of embracing isolation because it's my opportunity to speak to the only person that is always on the same page, me.
18:19Never feel ready to do things that scare you. You will never feel ready to take that leap.
18:25Your brain is designed to protect you and change requires risk. And so you are protecting yourself by saying maybe tomorrow.
18:34If you wanna change your life, you must make a decision to change your life.
18:40Learn to become still and to take your attention away from what you don't want and all the emotional charge around it and place the attention on what you wish to experience.
18:52Energy flows where attention goes. You can begin right now to feel healthy. You can begin to feel prosperous.
19:00You can begin to feel the love that's surrounding you even if it's not there. And what will happen is the universe will correspond to the nature of your song.
19:11That the universe will correspond to the nature of that inner feeling and manifest because that's the way you feel.
19:19It's never too late. Don't listen to these people who wanna put you in a box. Don't listen to them.
19:24Be you.
19:27Remember, you won't get everything you want.
19:32Simply sometimes it hails on your crop and rains on your parade.
19:38It's that kind of planet. You must learn to handle the negative. Don't ignore it.
19:42Handle it.
19:45Avoidance is just another form of fear. It's easier to run or to distract yourself, but that doesn't get you where you need to be.
19:53The real courage comes when you decide to face it head on. The discomfort doesn't disappear. You teach your body and mind that you're in control.
20:03Each time you face what you've been avoiding, you prove to yourself that you're not powerless.
20:09No more delaying, no more hiding, it's all part of the journey.
20:14This is your time to make it happen.
20:17And what's the worst that can happen? We live in so much fear. We live in so much so much, uh, trepidation because we're worried about pain or frustration, yet we've experienced pain and frustration, and yet here we are.
20:29We're still here. What's the worst that can happen? The real interesting thing is what if you don't do what it is that you wanna do and you never know what can happen?
20:39Because what can happen is what you dream about.
20:55The art of the comeback.
20:59There comes a point in life when everything seems to be falling apart. Maybe it's a mistake you made. Maybe it's a series of bad choices or maybe it's something that felt beyond your control.
21:14A situation that pushed you down so hard that getting back up seems impossible.
21:23You look around and it feels like the world is moving on without you. People are succeeding, making progress, and you're stuck in the middle of your own mess, wondering where it all went wrong.
21:36The downward spiral, it's real. And when you're in it, it feels endless.
21:44It feels like you're caught in a cycle you can't escape from. A pattern that keeps repeating itself no matter what you do. And the more you fight it, the more it pulls you under.
21:56It's easy to feel defeated, to start believing that maybe this is just who you are now. That this is your life.
22:04But that's not the truth. The truth is every single person who's ever made it, who's ever rebuilt themselves, who's ever had a comeback story worth telling, has stood exactly where you are now.
22:18And they felt the same way. Lost, hopeless, trapped.
22:25But the difference between those who stay down and those who rise again isn't that they had it easy. It's that they decided to fight for their own story.
22:36A comeback isn't about proving the world wrong. It's not about showing the people who doubted you that they were mistaken. It's about reclaiming yourself.
22:48It's about realizing that the version of you that's fallen isn't the final version. It's about understanding that yes, you made mistakes. Yes, you messed up.
22:58But those mistakes don't define you. What defines you is what you do next. The world will try to define you by your lowest moments.
23:09It will try to put you in a box based on the times you fell apart, the times you lost control. But you are not the worst thing you've done.
23:19You are not the sum of your failures. You are the story you choose to write after everything goes wrong. Her comeback starts with a simple decision.
23:31To face the mess you're in. To own it, and to do something about it.
23:37It doesn't matter how far you've fallen. It doesn't matter how bad it looks. All that matters is that you make the choice to get back up quietly without drama, without fanfare.
23:50Just a commitment to yourself to move forward. One step at a time. And that's the thing.
23:58The comeback doesn't happen overnight. It's not a moment. It's not an event.
24:05It's a process. It's waking up every day and choosing to take one small action to make one small improvement. Even when it feels like nothing is changing.
24:16Because the truth is, the change doesn't happen all at once.
24:22It happens in the small things, in the day to day grind of rebuilding yourself when no one's watching.
24:29A comeback isn't glamorous. It's not a montage in a movie. It's not this sudden transformation where everything clicks into place.
24:38It's slow. It's hard. And it's lonely.
24:42It's filled with doubts and setbacks. There will be days when you'll think, is this even worth it?
24:51Days when you'll feel like you're making no progress at all. And it's in those moments that you have to dig deep and remind yourself that this is exactly where the change happens.
25:04In the struggle, in the quiet, in the moments when no one else sees what you're fighting for.
25:12The beauty of a comeback is that it's yours alone. It's your story, your battle, your journey.
25:20And when you rise again, it's not about anyone else. It's not about showing the world or proving the doubt is wrong.
25:29It's about looking at yourself in the mirror and knowing that you had every reason to give up, every excuse to quit, and you didn't.
25:39You fought and that's enough. You see, life will always give you reasons to spiral.
25:46It'll give you excuses to stay down, to stay stuck, but it will also give you the opportunity to rise, to rebuild, and to redefine yourself.
25:57The question isn't whether or not life will knock you down, it will. The question is what you're going to do about it when it happens.
26:09The comeback is about perspective. It's about understanding that the downward spiral isn't the end of your story. It's the turning point.
26:20It's where you learn who you really are. It's where you discover that you have a strength inside you that you didn't even know existed. And that strength doesn't come from avoiding the fall.
26:33It comes from surviving it. From standing back up. From doing the work.
26:40To get back on your feet. The downward spiral has a way of stripping away all the illusions, all the comforts, all the things that used to make you feel secure.
26:51And that's painful. It's brutal. But it also gives you a chance to rebuild.
26:58This time from the ground up with a foundation that's real. This time, it's about creating a version of yourself that isn't afraid of falling again because you know you have the power to rise.
27:13So if you're in the middle of a downward spiral right now, If you're feeling like you've hit rock bottom.
27:26Know this.
27:30Rock bottom is not your destination.
27:36It's your foundation.
