Love him or hate him you can’t argue at this point @TomBrady is the https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🐐" title="Ziege" aria-label="Emoji: Ziege">

I’ve been a big fan of his since college & think we can all learn from greatness & his work ethic!

Here’s my Top 5 Brady quotes to inspire & the lessons I’ve learned from them & hopefully you can too!

“One day you’ll back on your life & appreciate the struggle & have nothing but gratitude for everything that happened.”

I can 100% relate to this!
I was:
-divorced & cheated on
-149lbs no muscle or confidence
-anxiety ridden, abusing alcohol

Now, I’m grateful for it all!

Without these struggles,
I wouldn’t have asked myself the right questions & discovered who I was meant to be!

Through struggles there’s always opportunities to grow!

If you find yourself in such a season,
lean in & ask how can I grow,
what can I learn?

“I wasn’t blessed with all the traits they valued.
Height, speed, agility.
I couldn’t change those.

What I could develop & control was

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✅" title="Fettes weißes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes weißes Häkchen">competitiveness.”

Like my man @MurfActual1 says,
“Control the controllables!”

You can dwell on what you aren’t gifted & blessed with

OR

You can get to work developing & curating the talents you are blessed with!

You have something inside you that knows you were created for more!

Wake up with purpose everyday & build the life & legacy you want

“My body is my asset.
I’m not gonna go eat fast food & expect my body to perform.”

At 25 Brady got crazy about his diet.
He changed the way he viewed food.
It was purely for fuel & energy!

How do you view food?

I used to have no plan around what I ate or when I ate.

Then my great friend @_CynthiaThurlow introduced me to IF & giving a crap about what went into my body!

The results:
-more energy & zest than ever
-best shape of my life at 37
-99% of my anxiety gone
-more focused

BE INTENTIONAL ABOUT WHAT GOES INTO YOUR BODY! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🗣" title="Silhouette eines sprechenden Kopfes" aria-label="Emoji: Silhouette eines sprechenden Kopfes">

“If you’re lucky, you’ll have family, coaches, mentors, trainers & partners that tell you never give up even when you don’t believe in yourself.”

This is why intentionally surrounding yourself ONLY with those that believe in you & your mission is so critical!

You should audit your relationships often & ensure everyone you ALLOW to spend time with you is building you up, holding you accountable & wanting what’s best for you!!

This means ending some relationships.
I’ve done it.
It’s hard.
Love yourself enough to do it!!

“If you feel left out or afraid to try your best for fear of failure, you’re not alone.
The magic you’re looking for is in the will of trying & not giving up!”

It sounds cliche. Never give up.

BUT

How many stop after a setback?
Stop after a NO?
Stop because they lose focus?

I recently tweeted,

“If you actively avoid failure,
You will certainly avoid success.”

Don’t be afraid to fail!
Get in the arena!

Who cares what others think.
You are here once let’s see what you are capable of!

Push boundaries each day & go for it!

Bonus one on fatherhood:

“The kids bring so much perspective to our lives and they& #39;re the most beautiful things in our life, so joyful.
My kids see me as dad, when you& #39;re one-on-one, you& #39;re just doing dad things.
They say these things, and it just makes your day or year!”

I couldn’t agree more here!

Fatherhood has taught me so many lessons!!

Kids teach us perspective & pure joy!!

My children make me a better man every single day!!

It’s undisputed Brady is the https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🐐" title="Ziege" aria-label="Emoji: Ziege">

He came into the league as the 199th draft pick.
No one expected him to achieve what he did.

Except Tom.

Channel that deep self belief today!

You may never be MVP of the super bowl,
but you can be the best you & that’s the real victory of life!
