Transcription of the video:

Popular motivational speaker Zig Ziglar says it very very well. There are two ways to fail. One is which, “You think and never do”. The other one is that “You do but you never think”. Everything begins with a mind set. What constantly absorb you with your thoughts? You know what? What you think defines who you are and what you are, and the outcome is usually the result of your mindset. If you think about money all the time, you might look like money. It stinks. It’s not a very good thing. But if you think about disciplining yourself, mastering what you do, providing a work of excellence then guess what?
Money comes as a delightful surprise. And money runs after a person who is excellent. And then loser keeps on running after money and he never catches up. Here’s what I want you to do, you gotta think and do, you gotta do and think, and you gotta discipline yourself into becoming an expert and then work for higher cause. Work for mastery in your craft and always give more than what you are paid for. And then the money will come after you. Isn’t that a good deal?

Get some exercise. Being in the office all the time is no excuse for lack of discipline. You can do office aerobics sitting right at your desk. It consist of jumping to conclusions, ducking responsibility, coming to grips with problems, stretching your boss’ patience, sidestepping difficulty, and pushing your luck. But this will never bring you to your success goals. Discipline is key to winning.
