Like dust, I rise. Every trial. Every tear. I rise. I’ve had days where the only solution was a dark room and a closed door. Days I had to restart. Life threw losses, grief, and heartbreak. But every time I rose. And every time you get knocked down, the question ain’t “why me?” The real question is, “Do you got fight?” #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #mindset #choosegreatness
Don’t chase success. Chase the standard. Greatness ain’t measured by the scoreboard...it’s measured by the STANDARD. Some of y’all are wondering why success ain’t showing up. It’s ’cause you only show up when it counts. But the greats? They show up every single play. Raise your STANDARD, and success will follow. Are you showing up for the scoreboard, or are you showing up for the legacy? #etthehiphoppreacher #mindset #motivationalvideo
I'm not the best, but they have not outworked me. I'm a beast! While they're sleeping, I'm up at 3AM dropping content! When they're taking breaks, I'm recording at 12, then again at 5. You might speak better than me, you might have better credentials than me, but you will NOT outwork me. That's the difference between talent and TENACITY! You're not going to beat someone who's doing it EVERY SINGLE DAY! #etthehiphoppreacher #ericthomas #motivationalvideo #beastmode
You might be smarter, your family may come from privilege, your daddy might own a company, but you will not outwork me! #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #mindset #outworkeveryone
Your best is not the standard. The STANDARD is the STANDARD! Nobody’s measuring effort, they’re measuring execution. Your potential isn’t a trophy. The game don’t care about your feelings. Business don’t care about “almost.” Purpose don’t accept excuses. The standard’s been set by champions, warriors, and history-makers...not your comfort zone. Are you trying to impress people with your “best,” or are you willing to rise and meet the standard? #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #standards
You say you want millions, but you’re still in love with habits that cost you everything! Greatness ain’t just about ambition ...it’s about submission to the process. If you’re trying to go to the next level, you can’t keep taking advice from people who never left level one. Being coachable means doing what’s uncomfortable. It means hearing truth that hurts your feelings but helps your future. Are you really ready for the millions… or are you just in love with the idea of success? #etthehiphoppreacher #mindset #motivationalvideo #Youoweyou
If you ain't the best in your position, you have no business celebrating. While you're out here smoking and drinking, somebody else is GRINDING for your spot. You're rewarding yourself for mediocrity while your competition is putting in WORK. This ain't about judgment, it's about priorities. You can't claim you want success while living like you already made it! Stop partying for potential and start working for GREATNESS. #etthehiphoppreacher #ericthomas #motivationalvideo #lakersnation
Broke folks save money. Wealthy folks move money. It ain’t just about stacking… it’s about sowing. You're trying to hold on to a few dollars while heaven is waiting on you to release it so He can press it down, shake it together, and run it over! You're quoting scripture but living scared. #etthehiphoppreacher #ericthomas #motivationalvideo #mindset
Everybody wants millions, but not everybody wants 3 AM. You say you want to be phenomenal, but your schedule is still average. The question ain’t how much you want to make...the question is what level are you willing to commit to? Success doesn't come to wishers; it comes to workers. What’s your 3 AM? What level are you really ready to commit to this season? #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #Youoweyou #mindset
You’re not “too much” for knowing you're worthy...you’re just too focused for foolishness. People will try to guilt you outta greatness if you let ’em. If you don’t set the price, they’ll set the discount. You’re not mean because you demand excellence...you just ain’t soft. Time is your most valuable asset, and if they want your energy, your presence, your wisdom...they gotta value it. When was the last time you had to stand your ground and say, “Nah, I’m not doing it for free”? #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #TGIM
Stop being average. Average people hold grudges. Average people stay stuck in the past. Average people wait for perfect timing. But YOU? You’re built different. You’ve got that dog in you. You’ve got that I WILL spirit! You’ve got another gear in you. So don’t just survive, will your way through it. Push past the pain. Choose greatness over comfort. That next level? It’s waiting on YOU to activate it. What’s one “average” habit you’re dropping this week to unlock your greatness? #etthehiphoppreacher #ericthomas #motivationalvideo #greatness
Stop praying small prayers. Some of y’all are asking for just enough when God is trying to give you overflow! - You’re praying for survival when you were called to abundance. - You’re asking for blessings for you when the real blessing is in what you give away. - You’re thinking too small—God ain’t trying to meet your needs, He’s trying to use you to bless others! Are you praying for just enough, or are you ready for overflow? #etthehiphoppreacher #ericthomas #amen🙏 #motivationalvideo
I’m not who I was… and I won’t be who I am. Growth is not optional. It’s required. Every day is another opportunity to ELEVATE. Not just to grow in money or titles, but in mindset, discipline, faith, and self-worth. You are a PRIORITY now, so act like it! Average is officially canceled. What’s ONE area of your life you’re refusing to let stay the same this month? #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #mindset #levelup
You were God’s priority before your parents even knew your name. I know what it feels like to not be chosen. To not be the favorite. I ain’t grow up with my biological father in the house. I didn’t have that relationship. But guess what? God didn’t wait for my daddy to show up before He showed up for me. You weren’t a mistake. You’ve been a priority from Day 1. Your problem isn’t a lack of love..it’s a lack of awareness of how deeply loved you already are. So walk like a child of the King. You ARE the priority.
You can’t build if your feelings are tearing it down. You don’t get the life you want by showing up when you feel like it. You get it by showing up regardless. Stick to the standard. Are you driven by your routine or held hostage by your emotions? #ericthomas #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #TGIM
