There will be times (especially in the beginning of your pursuit of greatness) where you will have NO results to show for your efforts. Most people lose confidence, and then stop moving with speed.

There is a certain brand of competitor that thrives in the Jungle... we call this type of individual, a "Killa".   In this episode, I break down the mental anatomy of a Killa, their mindset, and the skills and strategies that make them so dominant.   If you want to develop the mindset, habits and systems that are required to dominate and create results under any type of pressure, go to Imnotyou.com/welcometothejungle   Time Stamps: (1:22) Review: Set aggressive outcomes without limits (4:01) Don't be a cornball.

What do you do when you accomplish a goal? Celebrate? What do you do when you fail?   The last rule in the Jungle Series, is the rule that every champion inherently knows; there is no finish line. With this awareness, you simply get up every time you fail, and re-establish a new goal every time you succeed.   The game doesn’t stop. In this episode, I break down the art and science of the “re-up”.   Time Stamps: (1:22) The “jungle” vs. the “zoo” (2:37) A quick review of the previous episodes (Rules 1-5) (4:04) RULE 6: Re-Up (5:14) Evolve or die (6:47) Establish your STANDARD.

Most people will take action, fail, and then wonder why they aren't getting what they want. This wondering is passive, childish and non-effective.   Instead of wondering, I want you to make the habit of deep introspection a habit. We call this "ruthless self-evaluation". When you do this consistently, you develop tough skin and make improvements faster... results will then, flow. In this episode I show you the mental framework for evaluating yourself ruthlessly, and how to implement.   Time Stamps: (1:22) Don’t listen if you haven’t heard the first episodes (2:58) A quick review of the previous episodes (Rules 1-4) (4:44) RULE 5: Ruthlessly Self-Evaluate (6:39) Avoid the “self-help mentality” (7:39) Compare yourself to ultimate results (9:06) Next steps: Ruthless evaluations + Immediate action (9:43) The price of not doing this… (12:29) “What is it that I’m doing?”

You can think, plan, deliberate....all of see things are important. But at some point, you will have to actually DO something. No one likes to fail, or even make mistakes....but it’s through these failures and mistakes, in relation to our goals, that you evolve and become more beasty.    In this episode, I show you how to more fearlessly take action.   Time Stamps: (1:22) “Jungle” vs. “Zoo” (2:40) A quick review of the previous episodes (Rules 1-3) (4:58) RULE 4: Going through the fire. (7:48) Come face to face with the opposite. (10:04) To get what you want, you HAVE to face what you DON’T want. (11:40) Don’t cheat the laws of nature. (13:27) What scares you?! (14:35) Legendary quotes (16:47) Evolution > Wins and Losses (18:30) You will be rewarded. (19:42) Next step: No days off. // James Harrison, Jerry Sienfield… (22:28) Next step: Take action in flurries. (23:35) Next step: Begin each work-day with a plan. (23:49) Next step: Create scripts for your mornings. (24:24) Next step: Say YES to challenge that a

The importance of planning and anticipating cannot be overlooked. It's not enough to set goals and face reality; you must be able to design plans that help you move quickly and efficiently towards what you want.   In this episode, I share with you a powerful and practical 5-step plan to get what you want, based on the wisdom and philosophy of billionaire Ray Dalio.   Time Stamps: (1:22) RULE #3: Anticipate and plan everything (4:49) Don't completely ignore the bad things (7:34) "Principles" by Ray Dalio (12:32) Next step: Ask yourself the following questions... "How realistic is your plan right now?"

If you want to set aggressive goals the only way to make things happen is to- immediately after setting the goal- FACE REALITY.   Part of the reality is that you aren't nearly as talented, prepared, or skilled enough to reach your goals. And if this reality makes you run for the hills, you don't belong in the jungle.   In this episode, I show you how to more fearlessly face your reality so that you can accomplish goals systematically, and certainly.   Time Stamps: (1:22) Welcome back to the Jungle Series! (4:14) RULE #2: Boldly face reality. (6:07) You don't have what it takes. (7:00) Don't let you instincts dictate how you view reality. (10:28) Next step: Study the process of getting what you want. (12:06) Next step: Seek advice from qualified people. (14:11) Next step: Ask yourself the tough questions. (15:40) Next step: Evaluate things consistently and systematically.

So many people limit themselves. They set their goals too small and reasonable... why go after something when you could fail, embarrass yourself, and fall flat on your face?   This is the code of someone in the Zoo, not the Jungle. In this episode, I show you the first rule, which is about setting big goals, and operating under no limits. By doing this, you not only set yourself up for next level results, but you evolve and grow so much in the process that living by this law becomes a no-brainer.   Time Stamps: (1:22) Make sure you listen to part one of the "Jungle Series" (3:00) Your mindset is the most in your control (4:48) Find yourself that power circle (7:00) Create what you want. (8:32) RULE #1: Setting (and claiming) aggressive outcomes, without limits (14:05) Reality: No one knows the future (15:16) Reality: Small goals aren't guaranteed (15:54) Reality: Is "harder" work always the answer? (17:18) Don't let fear prohibit your journey (18:34) The logical breakdown: "What you doing today?" (21:41) The

In the first episode of this podcast series, I break down what it means to be in the jungle, why victimhood will be the death of you, and the reason why I am the way that I am...   It's important to understand the motivation behind the I'm Not You movement, because it will be challenging to create the level of results you want, to become a level of great you've always aspired to be. The Jungle can be harsh, and that's why I must teach you in the way that I do.   Enjoy.   Time Stamps: (1:22) Oh you gave up, huh? (3:34) Victims. (5:18) Don't be a softie that loves sympathy, and complains about everything. (6:14) Backlash from an episode I did: "For the women" [Listen] (8:41) This is the jungle. (12:25) Mary Cain and Nike (18:54) 24 and in the NFL (21:40) We don't complain over here. (24:10) How I was a victim in my childhood.
