Lion Mode

Lion Mentality

If the lion is the king of the jungle, how can he be the king of the jungle, if he's not the biggest.

The elephant is probably one of the biggest. He can't be the fastest 'cause that's the cheetah.

He can't be the smartest.

So he's not the biggest, the fastest or the smartest.

So how does a lion become the king of the jungle?

His mentality.

That's the only difference of a lion and an elephant.

When a lion walks up and sees a elephant he thinks lunch.

A elephant thinks run.

And it's all mentality.

Because when a male lion walks up, he may be outnumbered by a pack of hyneas. But I'm king of my jungle because of my mentality.

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.

What happens when you're a lion? When you're a lion it does not make a difference. You realize that if your family is going to eat, that if that pack of lions is to survive then you gotta go hunt.

A part of being a beast is not just eating a gazelle. Part of being a beast is the hunt.

It's the hunt that they're excited about. They like to see the gazelle's run then boom, they take off. 'Cause real lions like to hunt. They love the process just as much as they love the prize.

And some of y'all just wanna score. You don't like the process. You not in love with the process.

A true hunter's goal is not the prize. A true hunter's goal is to hunt. That's what they live for. They live to hunt. They don't just live to catch it, it's the whole process.

When you are a true hunter, you don't go by time. You go by the gazelle. When you are a true hunter, You hunt until you get a gazelle and you don't stop until you get one. and then you get another, and then you get another, and you get another.

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.

You're a gazelle, you're gonna come up short.

You're a gazelle, you're gonna have an average experience. You're a student, I need you in lion mode. You're an entrepreneur, I need you in lion mode. You're tryin to lose weight, lion mode. You' cant do nothing significant in gazelle mode.

Nothing.

Nothing impressive happens in gazelle mode. Nothing happens in run mode. give up mode, quit mode, scared mode, fearful mode,

nothing happens.

Everything happens in lion mode, like I'm coming to get you.
