If you don't have a massage gun, you are missing out. In this episode, I share the value of having a tool like this at your disposal, and dispel some of the notions that prevent you from experiencing the heaven that this tool has to offer you.    Imnotyou.com/Keys

To be self-reliant and truly yourself is the ultimate goal….no one embodies this mentality and philosophy more than rap mogul and billionaire Jay-Z. Listen to this classic song where he details his mindset.  Imnotyou.com/top100

*REGISTRATION ENDS TONIGHT 08/18/2020* Sign up for the Dominate the Morning Course at Imnotyou.com/DTM   You've been holding onto this "vision" for so long, yet you keep seeing the same results over and over. What's worse is that you seem to "know" you need to change, but you're taking no action.   In this episode, I show you how you can take that vision and make that into a real standard....how to make your current standard old news, and to keep growing.   I lay out the details in a how-to format, covering key points like... what to do when you come across obstacles, and the reality of what it looks like to actually create new standards in wealth, skill, health, and relationships.

In the ”Dominate The Morning” series finale, I take you into the morning of a "Killa"... I reveal exactly what I do each morning in my heavily-scripted routine, to ensure I start each day like a BEAST.  To get instant access to the Dominate The Morning Course, and learn how to establish your own bulletproof morning routine, go to SportsMotivationPodcast.com/DTM

Your morning routine can be likened to a wardrobe... What’s in it should reflect the nature, style, and preference of the individual. However, just like something as subjective as clothing, there are some Major Keys that every fly individual should have readily available in their closet. In today's episode, I show you the 7 habits that you must make sure to incorporate to your morning routine, no matter your personality type or style. While we don’t want our routines to all look the same (like a catholic private school dress code), we also want to make sure we follow some key fundamentals. There are 7 MUSTS, and I break them down simply in this episode.

It’s one thing to have a great routine you’ve mapped out... but it’s a totally different thing to actually wake up when you said you would. Even the most well intentioned, motivated "killas" find themselves hitting snooze, sleeping through their alarm clock, or even going to sleep with their phone next to their bed (this is a no-no).  In today's installment of DTM , I show you my fail proof method for waking up on time, each morning, regardless of what happened the night before.

This is the first installment of a 4-part series, where I will be teaching you how to truly DOMINATE the morning. You of course know (intellectually at the least), the importance of morning routines. You have been beaten over the head with lame, static, outdated advice; only serving to frustrate and interrupt your morning flow even more.  That frustration ends TODAY. I show you the mindset and strategy behind truly dominant morning routines, and begin laying down the foundation for you to create a dominant morning routine yourself.

One of the most valuable things I have learned throughout my many years in the “jungle”, is the practical value of having the right systems and habits. One cannot rely only on motivation, and surely it’s not smart to rely on the goodwill and strength of those around you. This is a recipe to be repeatedly let down. In the finale of the Do-Over series, I break down the importance of habits and systems, and I share a powerful system to create plans for goals that are so simple and effective that you will use it weekly and even daily.   To access the free GPS training (video + PDF), visit sportsmotivationpodcast.com/gps To hire Niyi as your coach, visit imnotyou.com/coaching

You can never downplay the significance of nutrition and the role it plays on energy and health. Today, I introduce you to a valuable tool I use each and every morning... my cold press juicer. #UpOnGame

There are any athletes who get themselves scared and anxious about the idea of “burning out”....am I done too much? Should I take a rest? In this classic MJ interview, Arsenio Hall asks him about whether or not he worries about his body giving out. Michael Jordan has the perfect response.  #Bars

Choosing the wrong mate can cause some of the worst pain known to you. A mistake here can cost you years of your life, potentially thousands of dollars, and mental stability. CHOOSE WISELY. In this episode, I share with you a powerful framework for choosing who you should date, invest in, and even marry, to virtually guarantee you remain aware of a bad decision as it starts to rear its head, and lead to investing in the right partner.  To watch the rest of the training, go to sportsmotivationpodcast.com/love

In part 2, I break down the dangers of “going with the flow” when it comes to who you hang with. Influence is everything...and you’re always being influenced (or doing the influencing). Too often we simply go with the flow, when instead we should be making deliberate boss-like decisions to decide who to invest our time with. In this episode, I break down my philosophy, mindset and strategy to build a dynamic power circle and grow at a fast rate. 

In classic “rant” style, I share with you a groundbreaking method of thinking, and one that not many people have adopted. CAUTION: This episode is not for the soft hearted, I do not temper my language, thoughts, or reality laden advice. Proceed only if you are ready for a cold baptism in reality... #UpOnGame

Most people, when confronted with obstacles, retreat, make excuses or try to advance without acknowledging there is a problem. All of these methods of dealing are foolish. In this classic Jay-Z track, he shares exactly what he does when there’s a “drought”.

In this 4-part series, I break down what I would do if I could do it over again…. that’s right, turn back the hands of time... these are habits and actions I would take to ensure I was at the top of the food chain in every jungle I was ever in.  Instead of regretting and sulking, I am evaluating ruthlessly to identify my own mistakes, and share my practical gameplan to learn from mistakes to evolve at an even faster rate. 

Have you ever heard someone say "I just want to be happy"? Or maybe you have told yourself that you don't want something, because that is not going to make you "happy"? The word itself is very misunderstood, and I think I know why. Listen to this conversation I had with a coaching group, explaining what my philosophy on happiness is.   Time Stamps (1:22) “What is your take on happiness?” Shoutout to Mark from KI 5.

In case you didn't know, I have another powerful and infectiously-motivating podcast called “Get Ya Mind Right”. In this episode, I share with you a brand new Get Ya Mind Right series called “Philosophy of a Killa”.

The implications and impact of COVID-19 on athletes and entrepreneurs alike cannot be argued. Leagues are shutting down. Businesses are tapping out. This storm is changing plans for so many. The question is this…. When the storm is over, will you be ready? Or will you then magically start to get ready? If that's your plan, I feel sorry for you. In this episode, Kobe breaks down his mindset towards big obstacles like these, and why it’s so crucial to stay ready.  Imnotyou.com/KI

You are clear on your mission, and pieces are starting to come together. You’ve got a plan, and it's exciting. The reality hits: this might take a while...  And it will. As time goes by with little results to show, you begin to get more and more frustrated... and the pressure mounts. You know you need to be “patient”, but it's hard to get to the right headspace.  In this episode, I break down the reasons for this (and more importantly) how to strike that correct balance between pressure and patience.  Time Stamps: (1:22) Preface for today's episode (5:50) Invest in your infrastructure (7:41) Set yearly and quarterly goals (8:49) Set realistic time frames (10:38) Well detailed, goal-oriented weekly planning (11:21) Ruthless self-evaluation (14:22) Spend more time with "killas" (17:22) Imnotyou.com/KI
