The Power Of "What If"?? EP.5

"Rise To Action"

When you guys are in a moment where you are failing

And you know you have to keep going, what do you do?

What would you say to yourself?


Guys whatever that answer is, will determine the trajectory of your life.

You see I had my grand opening for my gym this weekend, and

One word culture/impact.

Guys what was displayed was not always there. Like the impact was not always there.


Like 2 years ago I lived in my friends garage, going all into this passion

To change lives. I ate shit, forfeited my youth, it was hard and at times I felt

Alone. At times I felt like this shit isn’t working fast enough, I

Was doing the things and nothing was moving, or creating traffic.

How many of you were on a fitness journey, and fell stuck.

How many of you are on a fitness journey and feel alone, or feel

You deserve a transformation.

You feel entitled.

If that is you, understand you haven’t worked hard enough yet.

You are not paying your dues 2 fold.

I love this phrase about impact over income, but in reality impact

Equals income.


With that impact I know I can get into that weekend.

Hopefully that inspires you to do more!

But that weekend for me was everything I imagined, and yes

Exactly how I imagined it to go, it did better than that.

Like I told people/clients/gym culture about this event.

I said “It would be the biggest event of the year” and I delivered

On that. It was such a surreal experience, I never had a

Moment where it completely chocked me up.

Like I cried like a bitch, (but just tear of joy)

Because for me at 3:45pm time slowed, and i saw everything in

Third person, and I saw people who doubted me, I saw

The struggle of working while people were partying, I saw

Being told no, I saw all the people who closed doors in my face,

I saw my haters, but on the other end I saw my tribe. I saw people

Who supported me for me. I saw culture and how powerful

It was. It was I made it moment, all your hard work on full display.

And even when I had my moment, I had some small moments where I didn’t feel

Deserving of it. But the new me, I said no this was me, I am a legit

Player in this game.

And What If?

Is now Why Not Me?

I went to the bathroom did some breath work and look myself in the mirror

The mirror and said “I am a  motherfucker”

Let's go dominate my space!
