00:00:00.640 What's good motherfuckers, Ada here. In today's video, as you guys can see from the title, how to make it, meaning if you have a dream or a passion that you're pursuing, this is a video just to tell you how to make it.
00:00:12.340 So we're going to first start off with, there's actually a few things to talk about.
00:00:15.880 The first thing I want to talk about with you guys is once you already have your dream and your passion and your talent or whatever, once you already know what it is and you're pursuing towards it every day,
00:00:26.180 you want it so bad that you don't care about anything else except for achieving your goal, your end game.
00:00:35.460 So that's what I want to talk about. First thing is obstacles. We're going to go through many, many obstacles when we're trying to get what we want.
00:00:43.320 And for me, as you guys know, it's becoming a full-time Twitch streamer, YouTuber, whatever.
00:00:48.380 One day it's coming, it's all hard work, all dedication, all drive, which I have and I haven't lost yet.
00:00:54.760 And I don't think I'm going to lose it, especially with the motivation that I get from you guys.
00:00:59.720 So anyways, obstacles. Obstacles are in the way of every single person's legacy or journey, whatever you want to call it.
00:01:07.440 And you look at anybody who's made it. You look at rappers, Drake, J. Cole, Kendrick, Travis Scott, all these dudes,
00:01:16.320 they all went through a lot of shit, a lot of dark and evil and negative shit.
00:01:22.140 And obviously, you go through that negative shit, the positive shit will come in the end.
00:01:28.480 When it's all said and done, you made it.
00:01:31.640 That positive moment will happen.
00:01:34.560 And, you know, you're going to feel fulfilled and it's a long journey.
00:01:39.820 It's a long legacy that you must, you know, you must do.
00:01:43.260 But obstacles are definitely something that you need to, you know, get over right away.
00:01:48.540 You know, it's April. I've been going at this thing for, I want to say, a good three months now.
00:01:52.860 This is my third month.
00:01:54.460 I'm doing really well.
00:01:55.520 You know, last month I did pretty good in terms of, you know, making money and growth, obviously.
00:02:02.360 And, you know, it gets better within every month.
00:02:05.320 So what I'm trying to say is, you know, I went through a lot of obstacles this whole month.
00:02:09.640 Actually, excuse me, March.
00:02:11.820 And I overcame a lot of things.
00:02:13.620 You know, I lost a couple of friendships.
00:02:15.320 I went through, you know, a lot of family drama or whatever.
00:02:19.160 It's all trying to, you know, it's all distraction.
00:02:21.160 But you've got to take that distraction and just push it aside because you've got to focus on your end game.
00:02:26.660 And that's making it.
00:02:27.900 So obstacles, number one thing.
00:02:29.500 You know, you can't get unmotivated, undriven.
00:02:32.760 You cannot, like, feel doubtful from an obstacle because it's just a distraction.
00:02:37.660 And, you know, it's just a test.
00:02:39.400 Whether you believe in God or not, it's a test to see if you're strong enough and you're capable enough to taking the obstacle and just throwing it aside.
00:02:47.200 All right.
00:02:47.560 So obstacles, that's out of the way.
00:02:49.160 You know, once you overcome your obstacles, you're on the right path.
00:02:52.720 The second thing you need to make it is simply the drive.
00:02:56.320 And I just mentioned that before.
00:02:57.920 You know, you've got to have the actual drive to do it.
00:03:00.920 So, you know, all the time, you know, my friends, they want to hang out with me on the weekends.
00:03:06.140 I'm like, no, I can't.
00:03:06.940 I have to stream.
00:03:07.500 They're like, come on, dude.
00:03:09.020 Come on.
00:03:09.320 I'm like, no, I have to stream.
00:03:10.640 I'm very firm about it.
00:03:11.760 I want this more than anything.
00:03:13.240 You know, I'm a senior.
00:03:14.860 I'm not going to really see my friends.
00:03:16.300 You know, we're going to all do our own thing.
00:03:18.020 But at the same time, I want this so, so bad that I will not hang out with my friends.
00:03:23.120 And instead, I will stream.
00:03:24.160 I'll put all my hours, all my time into this, all my energy into this.
00:03:28.660 So the drive is very important.
00:03:31.480 You know, it was actually funny.
00:03:32.800 This past weekend, my friend was like, so you want to hang out after you're done streaming?
00:03:36.820 I'm like, I'm doing close to a 12-hour stream.
00:03:38.840 He's like, how do you do that for 12 hours?
00:03:40.900 It's my motivation.
00:03:41.860 It's my drive.
00:03:42.660 Without the drive, there would be nothing.
00:03:43.880 There would be no grind, you know?
00:03:45.840 And that goes into the third topic, the grind.
00:03:48.200 This is the last and final topic about how to make it, the grind.
00:03:52.380 Now, people really believe that there's overnight success when it comes to, you know, going for something,
00:03:57.980 when it comes to, you know, following something, your passion.
00:04:00.580 You know, that doesn't exist.
00:04:01.840 You know, you've got to assume that nobody's going to give you shit.
00:04:04.840 You've got to live the world as constipated.
00:04:06.680 Nobody's going to give you shit, you know?
00:04:09.160 You know, when you're constipated, you know, you can't shit.
00:04:11.700 Nobody will give you shit.
00:04:12.740 You've got to live the world like that.
00:04:14.280 So you've got to be self-made, you know?
00:04:16.660 It's all part of the grind.
00:04:17.760 You've got to realize, okay, this is going to be a grind.
00:04:20.400 I've got to do it, you know?
00:04:21.820 There's no skips.
00:04:22.700 There's no shortcuts.
00:04:23.720 I've got to just fucking do it.
00:04:26.100 That's how you have to have that mind stable at all times.
00:04:28.880 You've got to literally not expect any handouts, and you've got to just do it yourself.
00:04:34.240 That's all it is.
00:04:34.820 You've got to rely on yourself.
00:04:35.740 You can't trust anybody except for yourself.
00:04:38.180 You know, I've been let down by many people.
00:04:40.140 I've even let people down.
00:04:41.980 You know, you've got to just trust yourself.
00:04:43.760 You can't trust anyone.
00:04:45.180 You can't give everything you have into someone.
00:04:47.680 It's just they let you down.
00:04:49.240 In the end, it's the sad truth.
00:04:50.800 It's human nature.
00:04:51.960 But anyways, those three things, I promise you, that's your answer on how to make it.
00:04:57.600 You know, you follow these three things.
00:04:59.200 I promise you, you'll get what you want, and the end result will be nothing but positivity.
00:05:03.400 You'll feel fulfilled, and it's going to be the best feeling ever.
