Get Ya Mind Right Motivation Podcast | Peak Performance | Sports Psychology | Hip Hop

Did anyone watch the Grammys last night? Hip-hop is changing man... It’s diversifying with new artists and different sounds. Since I got mad love for the genre, I got a question for y’all, “Why so much hate for the new artists?” There’s a reason why rappers like Lil Yachty star in Sprite commercials and top iTunes charts… Listen, no matter how much shade you throw certain artists, they’re gonna keep doing them. And THAT, is how YOU should DO YOU! Don’t let anyone try to knock you off your path. You got the juice, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Shoutout to Lil Yachty! #LilBoat

Let everyone else ride the rollercoaster of life - throwing up all over themselves... screaming and kicking the whole way. You and I must be poised and balanced... and the only way to do that is to expect highs and lows, and stay rooted in the present moment. This is what it means to be mentally tough, with a "Kobe Mindset". #GetYaMindRight

You will have a sweet, soothing voice telling you to quit, to stop, and to take days off....don't listen to it. We all have an inner devil, whose job it is to get us to quit, and settle for safety and security. We have to ignore this voice, and to do what must be done. #GetYaMindRight

"Difficult" is all relative. Create a new standard of what's difficult to you by telling yourself its EASY. Cause it is. #MentalReps

This bar from J Cole hit me so hard, I had to give it a life of its own on this #MentalReps episode. Check it out!

*The FULL episode is available on the Sports Motivation Podcast ("The Recipe for Domination")* There's a certain state of mind that one has to get into, once there's a certain result that has to be accomplished. The process isn't pretty, and it's not about balance; it's about sheer will... and it comes at a cost. Sacrifices will have to be made. It's about dominating at a different level, and few know what that looks like. In this episode, I break down that mindset. 

In our Sports Motivation Podcast interview with Don Yaeger, here's Don's top indicator of a successful team. #GetYaMindRight

Are you already fighting those urges to break your 2019 resolutions? Every DAY is a battle... "Let he who wants peace prepare for war." You must be prepared for all of the challenges, and have a warrior mentality towards all obstacles. Let this throwback episode be the reality check you need to change your mindset and actually get what you want. #GetYaMindRight

Some of you are soft as hell....just when it gets hard, you think you need a break because you're "overworking". For that, you need a reality check. Here you go, take a listen. #GetYaMindRight

Best of 2018: I bet you're like me, and you like to be hard on yourself and hold yourself to a high standard...there's value in that. Yes. But we have to learn how to motivate ourselves in the best way, in a way that is sustainable. To do that, you've got master the art of self-talk. Let me show you how in this episode.

A throwback to one of the hardest episodes ever. Tupac's last words before he died are the inspiration behind this episode... Warning: I blacked out midway of recording this. This episode is explicit AF. Enjoy.

No matter how tough you act like you are, you're still running from conflict and pain, and it's hurting you. "Peace" is not good or bad. There is a time for it....and there's also a time for WAR. Train yourself to love to fight, to embrace conflict, and to run towards it - not from it. #MentalReps

Work requires focus....and you're way too distracted. Train yourself to focus. Let's lock-in today. #MentalReps

When you're down, that's not the time to be soft and tentative. It's the time to be reckless and aggressive. I dare you to listen to this and not move like a BEAST for the rest of the day. Put this shit on repeat. Let's go #MentalReps

It's time to stop chasing for the approval of others, and train yourself to love YOURSELF. Tell yourself you love who you are, and fall back in love with you. #MentalReps

Most people say they want more money, but unconsciously, they're afraid of money. They resent, and condemn money. No wonder your bread ain't right....Use today's episode to train yourself in the opposite way. Train yourself to LOVE money, and make more of it. #MentalReps

The message today is simple. You're unstoppable. That means there is no one who can stop you, and therefore nobody can mess with you. It's a powerful message, and much better than the soft stuff you've been telling yourself. #MentalReps

Self-esteem is a prerequisite for TRUE success; a blend of accomplishment and fulfillment. And at the root of our depression and frustration is a disdain for who we are. We simply don't like ourselves. Let today's episode flood your mind with the opposite idea... Look in the mirror, and like what you see. #MentalReps

If you're anything like me, waking up when it's dark outside can be a struggle....But guess what: The work still must be done. So instead of waking up in the morning, dreading the challenges and reminiscing on sleep and comfort, let's establish the pattern of waking up with ENERGY. #MentalReps

Hearing this message from a Mike Rashid video a few years ago changed the way I lift. It's the idea of TELLING yourself something's easy, instead of doing what most do... which is convincing yourself how hard it is. Train yourself to LOVE it when it's heavy, to embrace the pain. You can learn to love it, and make it easy. #MentalReps
