“NOW I’M FOCUSED ON BRINGING THE ENTIRE HUMANITY CLOSER TO GOD”
That was the text message I sent to Mo, my influencer! He inspired me to start my own 21-day Umrah (journey of faith), seeking spiritual renewal, forgiveness, and closeness to God, giving up whatever I feel is holding me back from being the best version of myself as a sacrifice for God.. Mo has this extraordinary wisdom from God. So, today, I want to share his most popular TikTok (@mobeezzytv) video, which has greatly encouraged me to up my game for God, and I pray it inspires you, too!. Here’s what Mo had to say:
Don’t sell yourself short, man. Stop half-assing (not putting your best foot forward!) everything you do. Stop half-assing that job. Stop half-assing those workouts. Stop half-assing that diet. Stop doing it, man. You’re going to have a mediocre ass life. Mediocre ass mindset. Feel me? The millionaires and billionaires ain’t a coincidence where they got to and why they got there. They stop half-assing. They realize, right, you know what? I got to become more intentional with every little thing I do. Become sharp and precise in the decisions I make. Cuz those decisions lead to everything else that happens in your life.
Y’all tend to blame God or blame everybody else for the mistakes y’all made. The only way you could grow is to look within and figure out what you did wrong. Find a way to figure out what you did wrong in every little situation that happens. Cuz those are the choices you make. You lost that job. Was it because they were being racist? Or did you mess up? Oh, they fired me because I was late this one time. You decided to be late. You live with those consequences. Blame yourself for it. Instead of saying, “Nah, they fired me because they’re racist.” You decide to give them that chance to fire you cuz you were late to that job. It just shows like it’s a mindset thing.
Start paying attention to details. Are you drinking? Are you smoking every day? Are you eating right? It’s something that’s holding you back. It comes with paying attention to the details. You say you want to lose that beer gut, all that fat that you’re drinking every day. Well, uh, like I drink sometimes. But you drink. Pay attention to the details. When you start paying attention to details, things in your life will begin to change. You drink. Every influencer says drinking is bad. There’s a reason you want to look like them, but you don’t change the things that make you more like them. Make no sense. Do you really want it as bad as you say you do? Are you letting your temptations, your lack of discipline, and your lack of respect for yourself hold you back?
Attention to the details, man. You can do whatever you want. Find a way. Change your habits. Build new ones. Build that discipline. Build that respect for yourself. Become the best version of yourself. Whoever you imagine yourself to be, become that. But again, it’s all achievable. You just have to find a way. I found a way to become bigger. I was the first person. I ain’t seen nobody else around me that was big that taught me I’m talking about in my family. The first person to be big in my family. And we all thought we were meant to be skinny. My parents are skinny. Older brother, everybody. We were all. But I found a way. I had to pave the way. I mean, you are who you think you are. Nothing more, nothing less. You are who you think you are. You are who you show yourself to be. You feel me?
Build that. Build it. Build yourself up. You know what I mean? You can become whatever you want to become. I’m going to graduate with my master’s. You feel me? First person in my family to graduate from college and earn a master’s. Man, I ain’t seen nobody do that first ever in my family to become a college athlete, D1 athlete. I ain’t seen nobody do that. It seems to look at me and hate what happened to me. You feel me? But I am where I am because of all the L’s (losses) I’ve taken, because of all the shoulder surgeries I’ve had, because of all the injuries I’ve had. I ain’t going to let that stop me. Nobody cares about the Ls that you take until you make that big win. That’s when everybody listens to your ass. Nobody cares about you losing. Nobody cares about your sorrow, about your pain. Nobody cares. Go get it. Keep grinding. Keep grinding. Nobody cares until you win. So win. Get to it. I’m leaving that in y’all’s thoughts, man. Leave y’all with that.
