Of course, once you've made a decision, life has a unique thing of just throwing a bunch of things in front of you to make sure what you chose was actually a choice that you're sure about what you said. And that's why number eight needs to be persistence. Persistence is the ability to keep going on even in the face of adversity, overwhelming adversity, even mind you. Persistence is something that just naturally, life will always do. And it's even when you're a positive person and you look at the most positive and amazing things and everything looks great to you. You still need persistence, because life is gonna still throw things at you that you just can't even look sideways and go Yeah, that was a benefit in some way.

You know, that that helped for some reason. No, no. No, not, life is gonna literally throw you a couple curveballs that are just meant to just go. Screw you. Screw you. And that's the amazing thing is that you know that you made a decision.

That is right. When the universe has something that very quickly, usually, especially when you put a lot of motion behind it, you really make that decision. Usually that the universe kicks you in some way. And it goes, you're sure about this. You're really sure. You doubly sure and it usually has to, usually three times, that's how most of life works three times, and then it'll go Okay.

And then it'll give you some trials to overcome and that's persistence. But it's funny because, you know, when life asks you, if you were sure about your decision, it heard you and the fact that it heard you means that we You did was the right decision, you built up enough emotion behind it. Whatever you did, you're starting on that path. You're ready, you're going. So kick up, you know, really gird yourself Gird your loins, as they say, you know, put on a breastplate of armor, because you're gonna need persistence. And that is a key thing behind being successful.

You're gonna have failures. In fact, I talk about every time almost every one of my courses need to understand everything that I do. I fail at first, even when I've been taught by masters, gurus, experts, people in their field that are profoundly much smarter and ingenious than I am. I still fail even with their like, overlooking guidance, I fail. Why? Because failure is part of the process.

You literally have to fail in order to succeed. No one succeeds instantly. And if you succeeded instantly, and you succeed then all the time It wouldn't be fun. And that's what life is life is failure, because it wants to see if you're willing to fail enough at something to then become successful at it. And when you become successful at it, it allows you to become much more successful. When you find much more successful, you get to become insanely successful.

And that's the fun thing. It's persistence. And at every level, it's going to test your persistence. Still, it's going to ask you, do you want to reach this new new level? Are you sure? Are you really sure?

Okay. And then it throws a few trials your way. And then once you overcome those trials, boom, that's where the success starts coming in. So you need to think about it as just going through it in a sensibility of Yeah, I'm going to have failure, I need to fail my way to success. And the funny thing is, is that when you have expert people, you know why people seek my coaching and my help is because they know that Yeah, Zack, I know I have to fail to succeed. But instead of failing 100 times, to be able to make my hundred thousand dollars, I rather fail like 10 or 20 times because I have your help and your advice.

And now I just got to make these, you know, 10 or 20 smaller medium mistakes, instead of like a dozen big ones. And you know, at smaller medium ones, I just make these mistakes with you. And then I can really catch on and have some success and this is going to be amazing. And that's what this is all about is having that persistence, being able to know that you're going to feel into success. That's the funny thing about life. Failure will naturally help build you and show you what you shouldn't do in order to succeed.
