This dude is likevan angel sent from heaven,with in the last 2 months of listening to every video he has I quit a 20 yr weed addiction, started writing 2 books, joggin with a 50 pound vest on 5 days a week in the morning, renewed my commercial cleaning license, growing my landscape and painting business ,like really devoted to taking everything to the next level, wanting it as bad as I want to breath, God bless you ET , you got my so open on being the best version of me I can possibly be!
What I learned today: 1. Must have 2. Either you're a liar... Or you really want it... Which one? 3. Partying is a celebration, if you're failing... Why you celebrating? 4. Are you serious or not? 5. Are you prepared to pay the price? 6. Have you got heart? 7. Are your indulgences worth it? Thanks Dr ET... This was just the kick in the pants reminder I needed to start the week strong =)
ET.... man, I'm on the verge of tears, but you just broke me and told me what no one else would. May 1st, 2016. The day that I change my live forever. Thank you
+ACanOfCoffeeMilk congrats on the shift! Now go make some results happen and let us know how things go! What will you accomplish in the next 30,60,90 days?
You have changed my life, I use to smoke weed everyday and not pay attention in class. I have 360ed my life around and in physical shape, I quit smoking and I have a vision and a dream I am turning into a reality. Thank you ET for showing me that I am capable of achieving anything.
Yassssssaaaa!!! I'm blasting this at home! My husband and I have 2 teenage boys who are slacking hard!! Both in academics and personal ambition. We have talked, punished, family meetings the whole 9! Maybe if they hear this from a 3rd party it will spark something in them...thanks ET!
I gotta admit, that cookie story really hit home. And ET's 120% percent right "no discipline ”. Overall, petty indulgence in behaviors that delay your progress aren't worth what it cost you. I'm grateful to be surrounded with positive ppl within #BreatheU that encourage me and hold me accountable! TGIM!
One of the BEST ET videos of all time! 2 parts, up to the 6 min mark (PREACHED! ) AFTER THAT..Cookie/gut. Cookie /gut. 😥you a baaad man. Praise God for you. Hope to meet you one day Mr.Thomas
I've learned two things from studying you Dr. E. 1)When your videos come out you cant just listen to them, you have to participate and interact with it- meaning write it down and 2) if you miss one TGIM you have to go back and watch it, because even if the TGIM may not be sequential, the information is in such a way that you miss one, you miss the whole thing, it is like skipping class. I am a terrible student in this case and in life. I don't blame my environment, my anxiety, my peers, family or anything but myself for it those other things are just the results of my actions and inactions. Right now I am not myself and I know I need a bit of guidance, what I've found is that every time I leave my environment(in my case my state) I feel so good I have visions of exactly what I want but when I am back in it, specifically when I am back home, I feel anxious ad not myself, I feel really disconnected. Even when I know I should do something, it takes me so much longer to do that thing and focus on it and my problem is I know I have to go but I have no idea where. I know what I want to do in life but I have only scratched the surface and need some guidance just to get started. Whatever the case I will keep working but instead of operating on 80% like I usually do, I want to relearn how to operate at 100%,how to manage my time, and how to sell myself(market) to get those things that I need(because some of the resources are pretty expensive but I have learned to adapt to what I have currently, and also that what I have, now, is a manifestation of who I am now) I'm hungry though and I feel a bit stuck between a winner and a loser. Anyways thank you and have a good one. I know that somehow I'll figure something out but the first step is to get out of here and that's where I need help (with the how to get out of here)
+Youri St Jean I guess I'd ask, where is the "here". Outside of your current environment? There are many ways to do that. And if so, what is keeping you from changing your environment longer term?
+New Future Builder I have a terrible gpa its a 2.37 and this is my last semester at my community college before I graduate. The last 3 semesters my GPA has been slipping because I am finding it harder to cope with my anxiety which has been increasing from just being in an environment that I know I do not belong in for the last 6 years(I am 20 now) . My goal is to transfer to a new school this fall, and play soccer as that is my life's goal, but every time I have gotten in a school I have either found that I could not afford it or that it was not the right school for me. I applied to a lot of schools that have y major and soccer. I have had 3 failed semester's worth of transferring. I just need to know how it is I can afford to pay for the school(I have a job, I am applying for scholarships online and looking for other opportunities and I use financial aid but I know that I might still have to contribute which is what always keeps me from going because of how much I have versus how much is needed), how to find the right school for me (I do the visit's , I talk to the rep's but still have not found anything for me that feels right) these are the things that keep me from leaving my environment(I know they're excuses but I need help to figure out the answer to this) . I do not know my right environment.
Dr. Thomas. thank you. I needed this. I realize that if I'm going to pay the price, I don't want to pay for mediocrity. I'll pay the price for excellence
ET (or anyone who knows): Making reference to the information related to your videos. If you check the description of some of your last videos you can see: "Music by: Fame of Juliet Dreams of Reality..." But in this video, for example, you dont use that song, but other different songs.
Yo ET love the new video and the cutaway to an actual scene of fighting with cookies. Loving the innovation and how you keep videos fresh. Salute from A supporter in Texas
this is GREAT! Probably going to watch this every morning till I make my dreams become a reality. till I get over this doubt. till I get disciplined & find consistency. thanks et and associates.
Having kids is worth it!!! It's priceless! Mr ET 99% of the people believed that it was not worth it to give birth to you but your mom believed otherwise looks like she was right she gave birth to a great man!
My oldest son loves chocolate chip cookies. I cant wait to make them like that and who don't love the smell of chocolate chip cookies baking. Loved the entire message.
Someone compared me to you today, so I had to look you up.Wow they were right you speak just like me. All I try to do is inspire others to better themselves and invest in themselves.
This one is for the GRINDERS now. At least the dreamers. I don't know what perfect is, but I know what the perfect GRIND looks like. It is relentless. In the end you will do whatever you feel is most important. The question is what is most important to you? Is it the success or sleep? Is it the nightlife or your family? Im not saying one is more important than the other. Personally, I don't know, but I do know that you want and what you think is important have to be congruent if you ever want to achieve fulfillment. They can't be different, they have to be the same. I hope you find a way to put them together. #CoachMP
I stopped watching ET for a couple of months. Why? not because he was doing anything "wrong", but because I am working on a book. The book has been to the publisher for review and is back for my final edits. So Why then, stop listening to ET? Because every time I listened to ET, I felt bad about myself because I knew I should be working on the book. BUT...I found I am losing steam. I work, but I struggle to dedicate my 120% to the project, so I came here and BOOM! Slap in the face, wake up call, shot in the arm...I don't care what you call it, but I think GOD spoke to me through Dr. T and said " I am not done with you yet. Now finish that little project so I can get you on the REAL stuff I have for you"
Exactly man, take 10 seconds to consider the better alternatives..ask 'how can I best be spending my time right now?' and then act upon that judgement. All work is easy work!
Yes I love it this is so good to hear while I'm studying this is realistic it cost and to listen to this while anyone study is a great price to pay because it's worth
You are one powerful man ET. Thank you for giving of yourself for the masses. My RUclips channel is tiny compared to yours but I do hope that one day I will be able to inspire as many people as you do by being my most authentic self
+Khafi Kareem Keep going, our "tiny" channels will catch up to him in the future! And you're sitting at over 400 subs right now. There are so many that never even make the triple digit mark!
loving it as always big bro please that beat that starts at 7:58 can i use or purchase it no curse words no violence and i will give it to you to use i love the speaches i listen to it every morning 4 am !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you you changed my life
I wanted to say something awesome but a "Thank You" is all i can think about... Your Motivation took me from South Africa to South Korea and am still going places .. Any plans for a tour in South Africa?
This dude is likevan angel sent from heaven,with in the last 2 months of listening to every video he has I quit a 20 yr weed addiction, started writing 2 books, joggin with a 50 pound vest on 5 days a week in the morning, renewed my commercial cleaning license, growing my landscape and painting business ,like really devoted to taking everything to the next level, wanting it as bad as I want to breath, God bless you ET , you got my so open on being the best version of me I can possibly be!
congratulations! keep it up!
L.P. Lightwell no doubt,appreciate it
+DERRICK CHESTER keep up the good work
oh my God that's phenomenal
+DERRICK CHESTER That is awesome!! Congrats!
What I learned today:
1. Must have
2. Either you're a liar... Or you really want it... Which one?
3. Partying is a celebration, if you're failing... Why you celebrating?
4. Are you serious or not?
5. Are you prepared to pay the price?
6. Have you got heart?
7. Are your indulgences worth it?
Thanks Dr ET... This was just the kick in the pants reminder I needed to start the week strong =)
+Marcus Santer You are amazing. I wish you the best life possible.
+Volt thanks buddy - that's a really kind thing to say and I wish you the very best life has to offer too =)
+2310sammy - You're welcome buddy =)
+Marcus Santer I look for your summary all the time..haha
+wlacroix10 - That's nice to know, thank you =)
ET.... man, I'm on the verge of tears, but you just broke me and told me what no one else would. May 1st, 2016. The day that I change my live forever. Thank you
+ACanOfCoffeeMilk I wish you the best of luck! AND GO HAM BROTHER! :)
+ACanOfCoffeeMilk congrats on the shift! Now go make some results happen and let us know how things go! What will you accomplish in the next 30,60,90 days?
RIP Kobe! No one worked as hard as you did, thank you for teaching me a strong work ethic.
Haven't watched big guy in a while but glad to know he's still killing it 5 years after.
+FifaTrainer: Football★Soccer★Tutorials every week! His hustle never stops. I appreciate him
"What are you celebrating when you broke!" Love that statement. Powerful powerful powerful video Dr. ET! #Salute
+Clayborn D. Momon love that statment too. This is definitely powerful!
That cookie 🍪 gut portion had me rolling 😂
Love how he always brings these messages full circle. I wasn't sure how cookie gut was going to play a role in this one at first! lol
+New Future Builder Me either! Lol. This was a great message.
+Dontcha Wish :-) It was!!!!!
+New Future Builder yea same here. I always hits us with a curveball!
You have changed my life, I use to smoke weed everyday and not pay attention in class. I have 360ed my life around and in physical shape, I quit smoking and I have a vision and a dream I am turning into a reality. Thank you ET for showing me that I am capable of achieving anything.
+Christian Santos Those are the stories that confirm his impact. Thank you for sharing it!
Really....really...needed every point said in this video. TGIM on a Sunday 💯💯
One of my absolute favorite motivational videos !
From South Africa !
Yassssssaaaa!!! I'm blasting this at home! My husband and I have 2 teenage boys who are slacking hard!! Both in academics and personal ambition. We have talked, punished, family meetings the whole 9! Maybe if they hear this from a 3rd party it will spark something in them...thanks ET!
Et drops another great videos with an even better message
+Cody Gubbins agreed! keeps getting better everytime
This guys just comes every time
I gotta admit, that cookie story really hit home. And ET's 120% percent right "no discipline ”. Overall, petty indulgence in behaviors that delay your progress aren't worth what it cost you. I'm grateful to be surrounded with positive ppl within #BreatheU that encourage me and hold me accountable! TGIM!
Every week you outdo yourself.
Shout out to the whole team. I'm coming.
Straight fire. This trully is the best season of TGIM. Thank you Dr. E.T. and the ETA family.
what a time to be alive
Best motivational speaker of all time. The attitude, the driver, the body language everything comes from the heart... God bless you. Am pumped
One of the BEST ET videos of all time! 2 parts, up to the 6 min mark (PREACHED! ) AFTER THAT..Cookie/gut. Cookie /gut. 😥you a baaad man.
Praise God for you. Hope to meet you one day Mr.Thomas
+RachelSawThat Hes definitely a tough cookie!
One of the best TGIM! Wasn't prepare for this! ET is the man!
+TheSoyouz69 I wasnt prepared either. He hit me with a curveball on this one!
It's good to finally hear ET talk about Kobe. With 33,643 career points he deserves it
Such a great question. Is it worth it.
I swear E.T. is a heaven sent instrument. Thank you.
The cookie analogy had me laughing pretty hard haha
I've learned two things from studying you Dr. E. 1)When your videos come out you cant just listen to them, you have to participate and interact with it- meaning write it down and 2) if you miss one TGIM you have to go back and watch it, because even if the TGIM may not be sequential, the information is in such a way that you miss one, you miss the whole thing, it is like skipping class.

I wish I heard this when I was in college. That's ok because I heard it now and I'm going to apply it starting now.
+cind0311 awesome!! Best wishes!
Dr. Thomas. thank you. I needed this. I realize that if I'm going to pay the price, I don't want to pay for mediocrity. I'll pay the price for excellence
that ice cream and cookies part hit me to the core ET
+Michael Gonzalez agreed!
Wow, I watch a lot of ET's stuff. This is the first one that made me emotional. I'm speechless
no words for what this video specifically means to me... this was the one I needed
DOWN WITH ET ALL DAY

Huge fan of ET
ET (or anyone who knows): Making reference to the information related to your videos. If you check the description of some of your last videos you can see:
"Music by:
Fame of Juliet
Dreams of Reality..."
But in this video, for example, you dont use that song, but other different songs.
And here I was thinking about Cookie Lyon from Empire and she had nothing to do with this. was it worth?
Great motivational speech!!!
I Love ET'S videos.

Yo ET love the new video and the cutaway to an actual scene of fighting with cookies. Loving the innovation and how you keep videos fresh. Salute from A supporter in Texas
