Never underestimate the power of pain. It can make or break, destroy or elevate, breakdown or cause a breakthrough!
I've been knocked down by people, by words, by life but I refused to ever be knocked out. If there is an ounces of blood left, a beat in my heart, soul in my body I promise you I am getting back up, and I'm going to achieve greatness or die trying!
There is a certain strength that struggle, failure, and true pain gives someone. You develop a level or confidence, determination, hunger, and discipline unlike ever before. At the end of pain there is a reward, you find out the real definition of CHARACTER and PERSEVERANCE. And you will never look at life the same as you did before.
Everything changes the way you see life, people, and most of all opportunity when there seems to be none. Your ambition to never feel that pain, your commitment to keep moving forward, you no longer fear failure, and you embrace the struggle.
It feels like you don't drink the same water or breath the same air as other people that take their blessings for granite, blames others for their problems or who are satisfied with being less than, your on another level, and your now cut from a different cloth.
Your focused not on the task at hand anymore no more playing checkers, your 7 steps ahead of your competition making chess moves. Making moves to put you in positions to make better moves before anyone can see it, before anyone understands your reasoning. You see the bigger picture in life; that it's not about eye sight, it's about mind sight.
Then all of a sudden, Life start to slow up and people become predictable because you already seen what there going to do, you dreamed it, envisioned it, memorized it. You're a survivor, You don't play inside the box, under the old rules, you're a leader, trendsetter, path blazer!
You have learned that there is no box, no border, no ceiling only the one you put there, your not going to follow the rules you create them, you set the new standard of excellence, when you reach a certain level of greatness inside yourself!
You have to understand others will follow your light. Many of us are living in the darkness looking for that light to show us a way out.Waiting for you to shine your light, and that light is fueled by your Passion, Hunger, and Drive.
Passion, Hunger, Drive is a Blog site dedicated to anyone who can't settle for average. Anyone who has been knocked down by life, but decided to get up and fight back. This blog is for the underdog with a heart of a champion. Use this blog to motivate yourself to achieve greatness!

YOU CAN'T DESTROY ME.
But just like the sun I have RISEN, I have climbed that mountain, cross that mighty river, and looked myself in the mirror until I liked what I saw looking back at me! I was never the smartest in class, never the best athlete, never the richest...matter of fact I was placed in special education, I got cut from the basketball team in 10th grade, and four years ago I was homeless.
I promise you I had every excuse to quit, give up, and blame other people and for a while I did. But it doesn't matter how many times you fall! only how many times your willing to get back up! Chinese proverb Fall Down Seven Stand Up Eight! I didn't have privilege or a safety net to fall back on to. All I had was My Passion My Hunger and My Drive.
I just refused to feel sorry for myself, I refused to complain, I refuse to let the judgement of other affect how I viewed myself and I promised myself I will get the last laugh, I will have the last say, I will CHOOSE my fate and I choose to be Relentless, Unstoppable, I chose to be better than good but GREAT!
So for all those people that doubted me, that labeled me, that laughed at me, I want to thank you because you are equally responsible for my success. And when the load was too heavy and I wanted to give in I asked God for a stronger back so I could prove you wrong. And if you think my haters are mad now wait til they see me next year or in 5 years.
I'm grinding, I'm driven , and I'm more focus then I've ever been because I'm past the haters and I'm Legacy Driven now. So if your going through some hard times, and your not sure about anythings, anyone or even how your going to get through today just know that "TOUGH TIMES DON'T LAST TOUGH PEOPLE DO" there's a champion deep inside of you. That will not let you give up on yourself, that is not satisfied with your current situation and has been waiting to fight, ready to fight, take back control of your life and move on to Greatness! Mediocrity ends here!

What is Success?
What is Success?
It means that you’re willing to last longer, and work harder
in order to make your dreams become a reality. Some people dream of being
successful, others stay awake to make it happen.
What is Success?
It means fighting through the pain, through the suffering, and
embracing the struggle. Success is not a right, it won’t be given to you, it’s
a privilege, it has to be earned.
It’s a mindset that you will do whatever it takes to reach
your goal. It’s the belief that dreaming about VICTORY isn’t enough, but that
you would give everything to be one of the select few that LIVE THE DREAM!
Now are you willing to pay the price?
Look Me In My Eyes
Look me in my eyes
Look me in my eyes and know that I am not afraid to fall because pain gives me strength, and failure is my motivation.
Look me in my eyes how bad do you think I want it, how much
am I willing to sacrifice to live my dreams.
Look me in the eyes I know its been hard, the road you had
to travel, the loved ones lost and the ones who have doubted you.
Look me in my eyes I guarantee you your stronger than you
think? You were meant for more, unleash the greatness that is inside of you.
Look me in my eyes the time is now to make your dreams a
reality, to strive for more, thru passion, hunger, and DRIVE!
