No one is perfect. Remember that.  Except for Matt Cain on the day he threw a perfect game, no one is perfect. No one. Do I fuck up? All the time. Everyone does. The real lesson to be learned, is when you do fuck up, do you learn from it? That's the most important lesson you'll ever learn. Everyone has their bad days and I mean everyone. It's how you bounce back from those difficulties that...

Our prime purpose in life is to help others. If you can't help them, at least don't hurt them. Don't be a dick. Not many people are out there that genuinely want to help others. Now, I'm not calling people selfish but a lot of people look out for themselves. If you are in the minority and you enjoy helping people, but you can't somehow, don't hurt them. Don't mock them or speak down to them....

Once you know what your good at, go all FUCKING IN. Everyone one has a special talent. Something that you are very, very good at. Sometimes it may take YEARS to find out what it is. Once you do find out what it is, you have to capitalize. Don't fucking wait around. It will be to late if your hesitant. We are only on this Earth for a short period of time. Once you realize what you are really good...

What do you want to be remembered for? I want to be remembered as a person who thinks of other’s first and the fact that I’d rather give than receive. I want to know that I’ve made a difference in peoples lives and have made things easier for them. When I know I’ve done that, the outreach of respect will come.  What do you want to be remembered for?

Money fills your pocket, adventure fills your soul. Yes, money is great. Why I do what I do is the hustle and hunt. I love playing the game. It keeps my mind working and fulfills my life. I can’t just sit behind a desk and push buttons all day. I love working. I love the adventure of creating things and motivating people. I love helping others but most importantly I love the game. You don’t need...

What’s the point of all that knowledge if you don’t put it to work? If you’re a smarty pants and have all the answers for everything, why not put that knowledge to work? What’s the point of telling people 24-7 how you’re going to do this and that but never execute on it? If you have a great idea or a invention, get off your ass and do it. Put your intelligence to work and good things will...

I’m not lucky; I work my ass off No one is lucky. No one. People who have things work hard for what they have. I get messages all the time from people saying, “Dude your so lucky mohave all of those collectibles bobbleheads”. No dick, I’m not lucky. I’ve worked hard for each and every one I own.  Don’t ever call someone lucky unless you know what they’ve done to obtain the things they...

A dream without a plan is only a wish. You can dream all you want. You can dream of a nice fancy car, a vacation home, countless money in the bank etc. If you don’t have a well thought out plan, your dream is only a wish. Dreaming is always good, but accompany it with a well devised plan and execute it for those dreams to come true!

No gossip is worthy enough to involve yourself with. People see this all the time and especially in the work environment. People chatter and spread rumors about others and you have to try your hardest not to get involved. At the end of the day it will either get you in trouble if your involved or flat out just waste your time. Focus your energy on productive tasks rather than hearing stupid shit...

Double tap if you know someone who wants, wants wants, but complains ALL the time! For the life of me, I cannot stand these people. They want a silver platter set up for them and everything given to them. They don’t want to work for it. They rather complain and bitch and moan. But what they choose not to realize is, NO ONE CARES. Nobody! Keep to yourself, continue to work hard, and never...

Winners make a habit of doing things losers don’t want to do.  Nothing separates a person more than HABITS that they each posses. Habits are the foundation of who we are. Look at a loser and a winner and compare how each one works. The loser will quit and complain, the winner will NOT stop working and therefore, have a shit ton of success!

Every day I wake up in beast mode. If you are not financially free or you are not living the life you want, you have to become a beast and work each and every minute of your day. Nothing will be hated to you. You have to work and work HARD. You have to wake up with a chip on your shoulder and have a beast-like attitude that you will kill the day. Success will come. Work like a beast!

The best thing I ever did was believe in me.  There’s going to be people all around you who don’t believe in your dreams. Just because they can’t accomplish the things you are doing makes them insecure. When life gets hard, they choose to quit. Always remember to believe in yourself and let the other’s who criticize you quit and remain miserable.

My life, my choices, my mistakes, my lessons. None of your business.  In order to become the master of your field, you must go through many obstacles, mistakes and setbacks. Anyone who who says it’s an easy ride knows NOTHING. While you climb the ladder, especially in the beginning, it will be very challenging. People will judge you and talk about you but you must block it out and don’t worry....

Overthinking kills your happiness.  Overthinking does more damage to you mentally than it does to help you. Instead of worrying what others might say, or if you may get made fun of, JUST DO IT. Who gives two flying shits what others think. Is there a chance you may fail? Of course! But it’s better than the person that hasn’t even tried before. 

People usually don’t notice the things you do for them until you stop doing those things.  I preach all the time that in order to be successful, you need to provide value and to help others. Many times, those people forget that you do all those nice things for them and after a while they “expect” it. As soon as you pull back then you receive an email or text saying, “What the fuck?" Be careful...

You don’t build a business, you build people and those people build the business.  When you have started your brand and business, you need employees who you can trust. You treat the people who work for you like family. Soon after, they start to contribute more and more and sooner rather than later, your so called, “business” takes off and you have a very successful business and even happier...

Today is your day! Tear shit up today. Work hard on your goals. Eat healthy, exercise for energy and get to work. The long road ahead is scary, but you’ll never get there if you don’t work at it. Don’t take anything for granted that you have and be fortunate enough that you’re alive and better yourself by busting your ass!

After work is what determines your future.  Many of us including myself have day jobs. Mostly all of us do. It’s what you do after hours when you get home that will determine your level of success. After dinner, are you going to watch House of Cards or watch a meaningless NBA game for 2 hours? You need to work after the kids go to bed and DVR that shit and watch it some time later. Get to work,...

Don’t tell me the sky is the limit when there are footprints on the moon.  The sky isn’t the limit, your mindset is. I hate when people say the sky is the limit. You determine that in your everyday actions. The harder you work and the time you put in is critical. You control how high you can go with your success. Keep working hard and get after those goals and you’ll eventually see how HIGH you...

The smarter you get, the less you speak. Sometimes you have to bite your tongue. There is no point in arguing with someone who wants to bring you down to their level. A strong person knows when to speak, when to talk and when to move on. They don’t have time for silly arguments with those lower than them. Make the other person sit with what they said. Leave them wondering what you’re thinking....

Train your mind to be calm in every situation.  In life, have the attitude of a warrior. Through every situation, circumstance and day to day struggle, remain calm. A warrior has complete control over his mind-no matter the chaos that ruptures around him, inside, he is untethered. The art of being calm amidst chaos is hard, which is why you must train your mind daily. Period. 

Don’t be afraid to fail. Be afraid not to try.  Never give up on your dreams. I will always tell you to continue to follow your dreams. The path to success is never straight and perfect. It has many twists and turns along the way. Getting started is the hard thing to do. Take small steps everyday. You’ll be surprised where you are a year from now. 

If you can't handle stress, you won't manage success. I've said it a million times, you will hit bumps in the road and failures. If you cannot handle those difficult times and even if you do become very successful, you won't be able to manage your successes! When starting from scratch, you have to be able to dig deep and grind through the tough times. They will come and your character will show...

No matter how big your house is, how recent your car is, how big your bank account is, our graves will be the same size. Stay humble.  In our current society, it's very hard to not become jealous of what other's have. I'm sure we all know people with million dollar houses a brand new 2017 Lexus and who have much more money than us. You know what, when we die, our tombstones will be the same...

Invest to progress, not to impress.  Invest your time to progress and to reach your goals, not to show off to your buddies. Don't be that guy that rolls into work and tells everyone that you worked last night in your office till midnight. I got news for you, NO ONE CARES! Put your precious time into investing into your business and goals not to tell Bobby how long you worked last night. Show off...

You know you are on the right track when sleep becomes an inconvenience.  Now, I'm not saying you should never sleep because sleep is damn important. What I'm saying is when you put in the hours after your "day job" and you get after it and it's midnight and you have to go to bed your annoyed. I wish our bodies would never get tired so I can work all the fucking time. My best work occurs when...

We live in a world where focus is more valuable than your intelligence.  I don't give a shit how smart you are, if you don't work HARD every day then the majority of US will succeed much more than you. Oh, you went to Princeton? Who gives a shit. If you are lazy sack of garbage and go through the motions at work and I'm staying late and working till midnight then I'll wave to you when your at...

Somebody died last night, but we didn't. Somebody didn't wake up this morning, but we did. We are not LUCKY, we are blessed!  This is a message to everyone who takes their life for granted. Think of the other's out there that have it MUCH worse than us. Someone died this morning and here we are complaining that our coffee is not hot enough or we got cut off on the drive in to work. We are...

If you kick me when I'm down, you better pray I don't get up! We all screw up and make mistakes. We fall to the ground. We hit the floor hard. If anyone makes it worst when you're on the floor and they mock you, they better run fast. Through the years I've made many mistakes and I told myself from day one that once I get up from rock bottom, that I will dedicate my time to fucking destroy you. I...

It's ok if people don't like you. Most people don't even like themselves.  Really, who gives a shit what people think. I took a bobblehead to the grocery store last week and made a little video of "Lucky", the Celtics mascot near a bunch of Lucky Charms cereal boxes for Saint Patrick's Day. I had a Sniper message me asking if people look at me weird when I made that video in the middle of the...

Do something about it! Stop complaining! Oh, you were poor growing up, you were born a minority, you don't have a car, people may make fun of you, you complain success will take to long? Grow the fuck up and stop bitching about everything that doesn't go your way. Here's the ingredient, you work! You work on your shit after 7:00pm until 11:00. Put an extra 3 hours in a few night a week. Don't go...

Any friend that turned into an enemy has been hating since day one.  If your friend was truly a "good friend" and then for whatever reason turns his back on you, that must tell you something. I've personally have seen this type of situation more than I'd like to have. You have to dig deep and really get a good feel who your friends really are. A lot of times there is some type of hidden jealousy...

A funny thing happens when you give a fuck about people...you end up making more money.  If you're in business to make quick money and screw people by selling them shit products and not providing any kind of value, you'll end up going broke faster than Bartolo Colon can take a massive dump. When you care about your customers and care what they say about you, then you'll soon find out that you...

Marathon runners don't win sprints.  You'll never ever succeed overnight. Unless you have a magical fairy wand and you can become wealthy over night then your doing something right. For all others, time, time, and time must be put in. I knew when I started my business that it would take years to get where I want to be. I'm still not where I want to be as I know it will take time. Success doesn't...

The biggest secret in life is that there is no big secret. Whatever your goal is, you can get there if your willing to work.  Very simple point here Snipers. If you work hard good things will happen. If you half ass your life away drinking beers on Friday nights every week then you'll never achieve your goals. People ask me all the time, "How in the world did you build your business up so much...

"Winning" is not defined by me or your parents or even the market. It's defined by you... If you got a trophy playing soccer as a 7 year old, your parents will bring you out for ice cream. To be truthful, you didn't win. EVERYONE gets a trophy. If you got lucky with a specific stock investment and made some money, you didn't win. The market won and you benefited. The only one who determines if...

Worrying is a total waste of time. It doesn't change anything. All it does is steal your joy and keeps you very busy doing nothing.  Why worry about something you cannot control? Is it hard sometimes to NOT worry? Of course it is! All I can say is whatever it is that is on your mind, think about if you can control it or not. If you come to the realization that you cannot change what might...

A simple "Hi" can lead to a million things.  Instead of being crabby and pissed off, why not say hello to someone? It can't hurt right? In an elevator, in the break room, in a store or walking down the street. You never ever know what it could lead to. It could be your future wife or a phenomenal business opportunity. You never know what a simple gesture of saying hello to someone can turn in...

If 1 out of 15 of your ideas succeed, that's better than 99% of your friends who never start a single idea.  The point here is to keep pushing hard each and every single day! Don't listen to others bullshit and if your one who has many ideas and only 1 or a few work out good for you! It's better than Peter or Glenn sitting at a bar getting sauced that have no determination. Stop worrying about...

Never discourage anyone who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.  Even if it's a close friend or family member, progress is progress. If your making progress little by little, then your doing something right. It takes years and years to build a brand as it won't happen over night. NEVER EVER criticize a person who makes little by little progress as the person who is doing the...

The cost of not following your heart, is spending the rest of your life wishing you had.  You don’t want to listen to your heart? Fine. Stay at your 9-5 job and take one vacation per year and live a mediocre life. On the other hand if you want to follow your heart and dreams, you will find the luxury to do more things and overall be a much happier person. Bottom line, is listen to your heart and...

The most dangerous person is the one who listens, thinks and observes. Bruce Lee Speak less and listen more. In previous motivational posts, I’ve stated that the loudest one in the room is the biggest joke. Don’t be that person. Think while other’s are speaking and observe their actions. You know who the loser is when they are talking. Listen more. Keep quiet and be ready to speak your mind when...
