Coronavirus exposed so many, for so many reasons. People came out of the quarantine fat and out of shape, relationships suffering, and with a false sense of relief as if something like COVID-19 can't happen again.   What you want to do is to prepare yourself against a future crisis. This won't happen by accident, it will be because you deliberately decide. In this episode I show you the ways you could be vulnerable, and how to be prepared for anything.     Time Stamps: (1:53) How did the coronavirus affect you?

All of us, at some point or another, have to do things we don't want, in a way we don't want to, and be subject to circumstances or even people outside of our control. But it's how you respond, and how long you stay in this position that really matters.   In this classic Tupac interview, 'Pac explains the real crime in being "pimped" as his interviewer calls it, and why the "come up" is the most important thing. #BARS   Imnotyou.com/KI

This is for the times you feel frustrated, upset, or pissed off because something doesn't go as planned.   Everyone loves the idea of accomplishing their goals, and creating a level of reality that is different than the one they currently have. The ones who actually create the results are the ones who understand that the grind is called a "GRIND" for a reason.   You need to train and discipline your mind to be okay, and even love the fact that difficulties will always be there. You are meant to evolve, and evolution is painful.   Todays episode is a wake up call, and a call to action... to begin being more creative, persistent and aggressive, whenever you meet that resistance.   Time Stamps: (1:22) The inspiration for today's episode (5:04) My football two-a-days (7:17) Reality check: It's supposed to be difficult (12:56) How you handle the pressure (13:54) Different types of pressure (14:45) Handling the pressure: Being creative towards the obstacles (16:18) Handling the pressure: Persistence (17:18) Handling the pressure: A force of will (18:56) EXCUSES vs. REASONS (22:29) It's time for your change   Imnotyou.com/KI

Now more than ever, there is an abundance of "aspiring" pro athletes and "Millionaire" business leaders. And it's getting harder and harder to tell who is for real and who is faking it all.   In this episode, I detail the signs that I have witnessed from athletes and entrepreneurs that show me that they are kidding themselves - and the closest thing they will get to a professional, is when they sit court side at a laker game.   Don't let this be you. The first step is awareness, so take notes, and listen at the end for your solution to this problem.   Time Stamps: (1:52) Were you raised with high-standards?
