Epiphany on Taking Things for Granted
00:00:01
Speaker
It's Monday and I'm riding down the street in LA and I got an epiphany.
00:00:08
Speaker
And epiphany was, you know, sometimes in life we can take what we have for granted.
Reflections on LA's Opportunities and Challenges
00:00:15
Speaker
You know, on my way, as I'm driving in town, coming from the valley, the valley is like the suburbs of Los Angeles.
00:00:23
Speaker
However, it's, I was complaining about the traffic and like, oh man, it's too hot and
00:00:30
Speaker
And I had to sit back and think.
00:00:32
Speaker
I was like, you know what?
00:00:34
Speaker
L.A.
00:00:35
Speaker
is a nice city.
00:00:36
Speaker
It's a big city with lots of opportunities.
00:00:40
Speaker
Beautiful weather, beautiful people, great things going on.
00:00:44
Speaker
And yet in other cities and states, it's hot and probably humid.
00:00:48
Speaker
And, you know, there's no breeze and there's no opportunities as much as L.A.
Embracing Gratitude and Building Character
00:00:54
Speaker
And so I'm here to tell you guys today on this Monday, Motivation Monday,
00:00:59
Speaker
That don't take what you have for granted.
00:01:03
Speaker
And the things you're taking for granted, someone else is praying for.
00:01:07
Speaker
So just be aware, be mindful of the things you take for granted.
00:01:12
Speaker
Stop complaining if you are.
00:01:13
Speaker
And get to it, man.
00:01:16
Speaker
Make your life your best life.
00:01:19
Speaker
And be grateful for what you have.
00:01:21
Speaker
And have an attitude of gratitude always.
00:01:24
Speaker
But don't take anything for granted.
00:01:27
Speaker
Not the city you live in.
00:01:28
Speaker
Not your upbringing, not the job you have, the money you make, or even your setbacks and challenges.
00:01:34
Speaker
Don't even take those for granted because those challenges make you better and build you up.
00:01:41
Speaker
Have a great day, a great rest of the week, and continue to push forward and believe in yourself.
