Lion Mentality

[00:02.76] If the lion is the king of the jungle, how can he be the king of the jungle?

[00:10.50] If he's not the biggest, the elephant is probably one of the biggest.

[00:16.08] He can't be the fastest 'cause that's the cheetah.

[00:19.27] He can't be the smartest.

[00:22.45] So he's not the biggest, the fastest or the smartest.

[00:26.70] So how does a lion become the king of the jungle?

[00:32.01] His mentality.

[00:36.00] That's the only difference of a lion and an elephant.

[00:39.19] When a lion walks up and sees a elephant he thinks lunch.

[00:43.17] A elephant thinks run.

[00:47.95] And it's all mentality.

[00:50.08] Because when a male lion walks up, he may be outnumbered by a pack of hyenas, but I'm king of my jungle because of my mentality.

[01:00.44] What happens when you're a gazelle and you're not being pushed, you're not being prodded, you're not given a reward, nobody's encouraging you, what happens when you're a gazelle and the lion's not chasing you anymore? You stop running.

[01:15.05] But what happens when you're a lion? When you're a lion it does not make a difference.

[01:19.30] You realize that if your family is going to eat, that if that pack of lions is to survive, then you gotta go hunt.

[01:27.00] A part of being a beast isn't just eating a gazelle, a part of being a beast is the hunt.

[01:33.91] It's the hunt that they're excited about.

[01:36.56] They like to see the gazelle's run, then boom, they take off.

[01:39.22] 'Cause real lions like to hunt.

[01:41.87] They love the process just as much as they love the prize.

[01:44.80] And some of y'all just wanna score, you don't like the process.

[01:47.72] You not in love with the process.

[01:50.11] A true hunters goal is not the prize, a true hunters goal is to hunt.

[01:53.83] That's what they live for.

[01:57.01] They live to hunt.

[01:58.61] They don't just live to catch it, it's the whole process.

[02:01.26] When you are a true hunter, you don't go by time, you go by the gazelle.

[02:05.53] When you are a true hunter, you hunt until you get a gazelle and you don't stop until you get one.

[02:11.40] And then you get another, and then you get another, and you get another.

[02:14.33] If you gonna do what you say you're gonna do, be what you say you're gonna be, you're gonna have to lion me out.

[02:19.92] You're a gazelle, you're gonna come up short. You're a gazelle, you're gonna have an average experience.

[02:24.44] You're a student, I need you in lion mode.

[02:27.36] You're an entrepreneur, I need you in lion mode.

[02:29.49] You're trying to lose weight, lion mode.

[02:31.34] You can't do nothing significant in gazelle mode.

[02:34.26] Nothing.

[02:35.33] Nothing impressive happens in gazelle mode.

[02:36.65] Nothing happens in run mode, give up mode, quit mode, scared mode, fearful mode, nothing happens.

[02:43.03] Everything happens in lion mode like I'm coming to get you.
