One of the keys is Remember where you came from? Keep that shit in the breast of your subconsciou and when shit exits bad and it departs sideways a good deal of shit Does you’re getting booed out the fucking structure or coming through this injury or beings? Are you writing you off? Are you gonna fucking make it you know any of that shit? You got it. You got to keep it in now The and it really has to It should Drive you This idea and this notion that you could be anything you want you can accomplish anything you want, right? We hear that you’ve heard that from the time we were little sons You hear that now, you’re already incredibly attained You can win an NBA championship MVP of the tournament you could become president You could become governor you can have you could be in in in in You could be an entertainment you were able to do Charles and you do Shaq you lose that you could do what it is you want to do.You guys know that? The thing that has worked for me is to remember The hard times so And I’m sure you guys all have your process. And again, I’m going to tell you what to work for me. So before A big movie comes out before back in the working day when I was fighting with WWE a Wrestlemania match Anything big-hearted that would happen. I would ever take a moment and I exactly prompt myself All right.I was expelled when I was 14. We were knocked off small island developing. We couldn’t live in Hawaii and no home to live a Lot of shit happened then when I to come to Nashville I was arrested multiple times by the time I was 16 years old. I went remember that if I were playing on this team Which might you know? my skills are what’s that word all the shit’s so I never dallied but before I lace up before I get on court before I representing these big game before I go to the Staples Center Where history says those are those are historic will Hall Sahara at the Staples Center I would remember that and it allows me then to be present in the moment and understand.Holy shit. That’s the stuff I have around me right now. This is this shit that I dreamed of when I was a child I am now. I toy for University of Miami played immense squads Warren Sapp where Lewis there were my teammates. They were ballin Warren Sapp was playing tight purpose that time. I was starting defensive tackle. They moved him over to d-line And he looked at me. He’s like yo, do I’m gonna make your spot. I said, you ain’t make my fuckin blot He’s I’m gonna go your smudge We combated and “hes taking” my spot They can imagine how that fucking with me cuz there becomes my opportunity He exited in be changed to defensive attack ignite the world on fire Well what that did it mashed me to subdue my dreams.I had a piss-poor major time zero product No NFL no combining invite Nothing eventually went to the CFL Calgary Stampeders impelling $250 a few weeks Canadian Canadian I had to send that shit home To my to my partner at that time I had no money so I remember that I went cut from Canada. I had 7 bucks in my pocket And I ever tell that story.So now my production busines 7 horses advertising busines 7 bucks. Everything is 7 bucks I always remember that what cures me is to keep the hard times in the figurehead of my psyche Because it allows me to go into these large-scale Times that I’ve worked my ass off and you guys have worked your ass off It allows me to go into these large-scale moments with a different perspective What it also does for me and again this just this is what works for me like I Keep my back justify my language.My back is up against this motherfucker Every day it’s against this fucking wall. Excuse my language But it’s a begins this motherfucker because it’s what I believe in and when my back is against this motherfucker then there’s nowhere to go But that road that’s it So I feel like this could be something an ideology mindset that could help you Could if you look at it that way Because you attained it previously we did it We’re successful boys and we’re lucky sons to be we’re at oh you guys prepared it everybody in the area Nobody’s gonna get dislodged anymore Anything you got there’s no more coin troubles, right? You was a lot of pass out now I get a little bit Can I get a little bit right that happens? But when you make it For me I need this I need this So every day my back is up against this motherfucker and this is how I control Now doesn’t mean don’t smile.There’s me to laugh and joke Right joyous I’m happy. I’m a joyou chap But when it comes to business and when it comes to executing what’s up against this? And I gotta go that behavior And I don’t give a fuck who is in front of me. They’re not gonna stop me. I feel like for me it feels seamless Because you prepared for so long, but it’s just like you guys prepping for a game.That’s the entertaining persona That’s where it’s like fuck is fun and beings are paying their hard-earned dollars to come see you. They’re encourage. They’re going bananas They’re booing the shit out of you or on the road. It’s that’s fun. That’s what you live for I necessitate, that’s the juice right there The prep is where the characters made and I merely don’t mean the character I represent I make the fucking the character in here So for me the prep is getting with the administrator get with the producers get with “the authors ” getting with the getting with so in essence it’s like coming with all your tutors and your different rank coach-and-fours and and all the Meetings that you have to have right? So that’s the slog you put in the key for me was Where does it start? What’s the fasten? What’s the anchor so I could have all these aspirations and you guys have all these ends, which is great It’s important.I’ll play this persona. You’ll represent that character. I’ll perform this thing and it’ll come out this summer you guys will execute this thing during the summer right what it’s time to really put in a lot more work But the key with me is just always seeing what the linchpin is and the fuck and anchor is Getting up at 4 o’clock in the morning everyday before anybody else and Grounding. My thought process is in the no one will outwork me No one I enjoy and I respect you guys Motherfuckers one that worked me I’ll start with this Two hands putting it’ll wreak. The fix for me has historically been the work in terms of the weight room training So when I first started striving I was six years old rolling on the mattings with my dad my old person. A lot of you guys will know this Yeah, Rocky Johnson My old man was Rocky Johnson was the first black WWF tag WWWF at that time firstly black WWE tag team champs were Tony Atlas back in 1983 My uncle’s were wild Samoans.I come from a long line of pro wrestlers but before the grappling constituent happened I was just in the gym putting in the work at six years old rolling around on the mattings and finally when I could touch Loads at 13. That’s what I was doing But the force place for me and the gym persona Has has always been ought to have the fix look at the end of the working day like again That’s it’s the kind of stuff that I talked about at top is I have to hold on to My dad in his pickup truck came down four o’clock in the morning Pick me up at in whoo in Miami from Tampa.We lived in a little shitty apartment in Tampa He drove down in his little pick-up truck to Miami to get me when I was cut from the CFL. I was driving up I 75 I don’t know if you guys are from Florida any of you guys if you know It’s I 75 is like especially down in Florida, Alligator Alley I’ll never forget it’s four o’clock in the morning, and I thought well fuck that. I leave home like you guys left home I’m ready to tackle the world to get after it achieve my dreams and points fucking crushed by 22 23 year olds I’m now I got to move back in with my moms and pops. I toy on immense crews. Oh, wait a second This is not supposed to be my future. I’m supposed to be in the NFL right now I’m supposed to be making a lot of silver and behind my parents shit buying me shit taking care of my partner But it never happened.So I plucked in my billfold. I thought well, let me see how much coin I have I opened it up. I had a 5 a 1 and modify I’m not “re kidding” and I Rounded up to 7 horses But I belief God ain’t this a bitch. I get 7 horses in my pocket. Where the fuck do I going to go? What’d I do? I can’t go back to CFL coz I are you know? The stage comes whatever it is you hear that voice large-hearted guides over like you’re done, right? So I heard that voice so as coach was saying man. I hold on to that shit. I’m telling you I continue my back as Perkins’s motherfucker. We titter we joke, we have a good time Press is always fun to do sometime. You got to make it fun That’s another thing he had to do the very best to utter press fun Who as you can but my back is still up against this motherfucker I do not forget it what this also helps me do and again it works for me is At some site you got to be fucking tired of not being number one You have to be and you got a fucking plate angry and I toy annoyed now I’m cool and calm with my approaching and when I step out on my battlefield, which is a designated or you know like There’s something you’re always gonna have haters and haters like well Yeah, male, how many movies you’re gonna originate her how much shit are you gonna do like you do a lot of shit? I say yes Cuz my end of course why not I could do it Yeah, I cherish what I do and not only that but in what world do we not work every day? It doesn’t mean it’s just like you guys in the off season.You got work every fucking day Doesn’t outcome my back is up against this thing, you are familiar with, and I and I and I started to play Angry, by the way, and and I still I still play angry my last-place equal Brock lesner Transition and I realized if I had to be great at something I wanted to be great in this world of Hollywood and movie making and producing and entertainment I had to commit and like you guys have to commit apparently you commit to something commit to the goal So I quietly retired two years later.I belief what the hell is did I do in my busines? Cuz my movies “re not” doing well I was written off I was like around 2006 2007 I was like goddamn. I left I pulled a Jim Brown I left home when I was on top like number one in the wrestling business and I left it was a ballsy gutsy So I’m called it stupid move, but I had to commit and I had to follow it wasn’t my divinity And at that time I’ll share this with you guys and Will Smith is my boy And I sat down at that time with the agency I was with and I said, what do you want to accomplish? I said I want to accomplish the world.I want the world and I demand I require Will Smith’s career But and I said and I make this respectfully because I know he’s here at this age. See with us I want to do it bigger and better? and They looked at me like I had three fucking face and they were like. Mm-hmm. Okay but I still remained focused and I still had these still put in the hard work with my two mitts and That’s it. And that’s what it comes down to with you guys.One of its most important is Remember where you came from? Keep that shit in the front of your knowledge and when shit exits bad It proceeds sideways a good deal of shit Does you’re getting booed out the fucking building or coming through this injury or beings? Are you writing you off? Are you guys gonna fucking make it you know any of that shit? You got it. You got to keep it in now And it really “re going to have to” It should drive you
