Eric Thomas - PASSION OVER MONEY (Eric Thomas Motivation) Ethic Motivation
The reason why Sabin is where he is is
because nick saban eat sleep drinks
football that's all that's all he does
every day all day as a matter of fact
the WAC is conversations I've ever had
with one a one-percenter is Nick saving
why because when we sit down he doesn't
know how to do small talk it is the most
awkward conversation he try to make up
stuff I like Nick we talked last time
you asked me the same thing like do you
remember that I have children I don't
even think like it's like we start over
every time I see him all right he
doesn't know you don't repeat only
Remember Who I am
why because he eats sleeps drinks
football so I need you to understand why
do you do what you do so anybody that's
coming to the motivational speaking
realm and they're gonna try to take my
spot from be the number one motivation
speed in the world if all they're trying
to do is make money you don't stand a
chance with Aaron Thomas because my wife
has MS and I'm trying to make sure
she'll never go back to work again my
father wasn't in my life my grandfather
wasn't in his life I'm trying to make
sure that the family I put together that
we create a legacy so while you're
trying to do is get a check I'm gonna
kill you every day you will not have the
passion that I have you won't have the
energy you won't have the tenacity you
won't be able to get up when they punch
you in your face and like will punch you
in your face you don't stand a chance so
if you're trying to be in the 80% or the
20% you probably won't even bear to be
in the 20% with that attitude but if you
want to be a one-percenter you cannot do
it for money listen to me when you're
passionate about what you do money is
going to change you like like are you
passionate about it nobody ever gave you
another dime would you be able to do it
with the tenacity that you do it right
and if you say yes guess what you do not
have a problem of money so number one
you got to ask yourself why do you do
what you do
what the 1% do is they they the reason
why they execute is because they focus
on the real minor stuff that nobody else
is paying attention to nobody else is
watching how do you do that like
vertical and horizontal communication
right so whatever skills you have when
you knock on the door you share those
skills with me but but the non 1% is
whether they do with great information
keep it you think it is giving you an
advantage but actually is giving you a
what it's a handicap let me tell you why
this nick saban says something deep to
his team he says that every year one of
our guys leaves and goes to another team
and they have our playbook they have our
strategy they have our scheme but they
not Alabama so even when they leave
they're not gonna be able to duplicate
what we do because when they leave and
go somewhere else now the team that
they're talking to is not the team we
talking to so now when they go they
might be the top dogs but they're not
talking to champions what makes us
different is that we still talking
amongst each other as champ they go into
a team that's trying to get where we are
we already here so what Nick understands
is I'm not demand collectively we
represent what makes us the greatest so
again why don't let's keep talking
for real for it why do you hold up right
why don't you share why don't we come
together on a regular basis amongst
ourselves not with the truth not with
the staff but we're coming together and
talking why don't we talk more months
ourselves and share what we're reading
what we're studying when in actuality it
is the duplicating of yourself that will
take you to the next level for the most
part a large majority of people work for
answer that question for me a large
majority of people take jobs and work
for
yeah but that's not the number one money
yeah so I'm just one more time so the
majority of people take jobs for good
the one percent does it all right so I'm
gonna give you guys a quick example so
and my wife brought this to my attention
the other day so we travel a lot so
there are car services and we try to use
we try to find a car service and use the
same car service in every city right we
try to find one that's international so
fortunately unfortunately did some work
for Forbes the other day and one of the
young men who was associated with Forbes
put me on to a new car company right so
my wife and I had a car come and they
gave us a new car company both car
companies and when we got out of the
second one to go to the airport my wife
said to me wow did you notice that and I
was like notice what she's like that you
noticed that this car service didn't
have any water I was like I didn't
really pay attention you know we weren't
ready for it I wasn't really paying
attention yeah they didn't have any they
have any water they didn't provide us
with any word I was like okay
she's like you also noticed that they
didn't have any wipes remember the first
one we got in he had the wipes coming
from both you know you had the with hand
sanitizer on the back of both seats I
was like wow yeah I didn't really pay
attention but she's like yeah that's
weird and this one I noticed that he had
a car seat in the back and there was
some like crumbs from whatever you
noticed the other guy had different
types of mints gum I was like yeah I
didn't notice that for sure and so the
first thing I want to say to you is that
the one percenters don't do what they do
for money they do they do it because one
they're passionate about what they do
right so it might seem small that the
guy had water he had two hand sanitizers
he had the mitts whatever and the other
guy didn't and here's the last thing my
wife said she said man I noticed the
last guy when he dropped us off he just
dropped us off the other guy dropped us
off grab the bags wouldn't let you touch
the bat he opened the door for me do me
a favor when we travel the next time can
we use the first service that that we
normally use I was like no problem
whatsoever
so the guy who was doing it for money
lost the money just want you to imagine
that the guy that was doing it for money
lost the money but the guy that was
doing it because he's truly passionate
about transportation service and
providing a service for a person that
guy is actually going to get our
business back and watch this this is
what's so funny the guy who did it the
second time for us they actually did it
for free because they looked out for us
because they wanted us to come back and
try them whenever we're in New York and
even though it was free we're not gonna
be using them right because they were
doing it for money so I need you to do
me a huge favor
I need you to understand that what
drives you to do what you do it's also
going to determine how long you do it
and at what level you do it all right I
need you to understand that how long
you're gonna be doing it so some people
will be doing sales jobs and they'll go
through 15 16 different companies right
some of us will be doing we doing like
speaking and working with ETA and not
with you guys I'll be doing it for as
ever as long as I want to do it why
because I'm not doing it to make money
as a matter of fact I to be honest with
you there's nothing that I do that I
start with money I'm not saying anything
wrong with it but I never even start
there I start with what do you want me
to do and how can i play a significant
role because I don't even want to do it
if all I'm gonna do is get us a jack
like I'm not even interested in doing it
if all you're gonna do is give me money
I don't want to do it so I remember a
time when I found out that Tony Robbins
was a number one motivation speed in the
world I didn't I never knew who was who
but when I found out Tony Robb I was
like wow he's number one and I remember
people would call me and say Eric are
you available I'm like yeah well Tony
wasn't so he called you oh I felt good
about that I'm like whoa I'm coming
behind Tony Robert that's pretty sweet
I'm sure he can't do every gig that he's
called to do but then I remember sending
myself what have you go hard II and you
give it everything you have
I wonder could you be on the same level
as Tony Robbins
right and so I got on the same level and
not speaking but CJ brought to me the
other stuff that (ethicdiscussion.com)
he was doing and I was
like you know I have to become a better
person not a speaker but a better
businessman to get on his level to do
that right so I want you to just stop
for a minute and just ask yourself for
real for real
like what's driving you what's driving
you to do what you do what's driving you
and are you taking shortcuts right and
you are taking shortcuts if you're only
doing it for money and I'm just being
honest which I'm not playing so when I
tell you Nick Saban Michael Jordan
LeBron James Kyrie Irving what makes
them different is that they're all NBA
players but some of them kind of care
about the game more than they care about
the check
they've really honored the game itself I
honor my crap do you honor your crap as
a service man not a Salesman
do you out of your crap as a cell not a
Salesman but a service man that I'm
literally coming here to give you a
service so that's number one our focus
is not money and that's why we make more
of it I never have a problem with making
money
- Josh point I'm probably saying no to a
few million a year just because I have
decided not to play the numbers game now
I talked to the can feels right you know
it's a jackhammer I talked to those guys
you know they told me they like y'all
eat back in the day we play the numbers
game so literally we did like 20 gigs a
month and we just racked it up and made
millions I could do that right now right
now I could play the numbers game but
I've decided that I don't necessarily
want to be I don't mind being on the
road for 30 days but I don't want to
speak every single day but I have been
able to make millions doing what I'm
doing and there's still more money to be
made if I wanted to make it exactly so I
want to help you the 1% they don't focus
on the money right they focus on the
passion right they don't focus on the
what they focus on the passion they
focus on the crap and if you were
focused on your crap
you'd be one of the best at what you do
