00:00.143 --> 00:02.726
(upbeat music)

00:05.220 --> 00:07.120
- What's going on, it's
your man Chief Bruce

00:07.120 --> 00:09.480
with another grand slam short.

00:09.480 --> 00:12.050
Today we're gonna talk
about fighting complacency.

00:12.050 --> 00:14.160
Complacency is dangerous.

00:14.160 --> 00:15.350
It can creep up on all of us.

00:15.350 --> 00:16.890
It doesn't discriminate.

00:16.890 --> 00:19.060
It's when we start to live off
of our past accomplishments

00:19.060 --> 00:22.480
and stop trying to become
better as human beings.

00:22.480 --> 00:23.860
So how do we fight that?

00:23.860 --> 00:25.860
How do you fight complacency?

00:25.860 --> 00:27.590
The first thing that you have
to do when you're fighting

00:27.590 --> 00:32.320
complacency is to do a
continuous self-evaluation.

00:32.320 --> 00:34.700
One of the techniques
I use is I watch game

00:34.700 --> 00:36.797
film of the day when I get home and I say,

00:36.797 --> 00:39.769
"Man what could I have
done better that day?"

00:39.769 --> 00:43.310
And then try to improve
on that for the next day.

00:43.310 --> 00:46.300
The next thing is, not just
your own self-evaluation,

00:46.300 --> 00:47.800
but you need feedback.

00:47.800 --> 00:50.430
You need feedback from
people who are around you

00:50.430 --> 00:54.070
and you need to have someone
in your life that you trust

00:54.070 --> 00:57.380
and love and who loves you
enough to tell you the things

00:57.380 --> 01:00.300
that you need to hear and not necessarily

01:00.300 --> 01:01.920
what you want to hear.

01:01.920 --> 01:05.020
Don't live on yesterday's wins.

01:05.020 --> 01:07.770
What happened yesterday was in the past.

01:07.770 --> 01:09.750
So let's say you had a great day.

01:09.750 --> 01:10.583
You did a lot of things.

01:10.583 --> 01:12.040
You accomplished a lot of stuff.

01:12.040 --> 01:14.400
Reflect on it, celebrate it that night.

01:14.400 --> 01:17.520
Celebrate it a few
moments after that moment

01:17.520 --> 01:19.000
and then move on to the next day.

01:19.000 --> 01:21.676
The last way you can fight complacency

01:21.676 --> 01:23.740
is to challenge yourself.

01:23.740 --> 01:26.550
Don't become comfortable
with where you are.

01:26.550 --> 01:29.760
Continue to add more weight to the bench.

01:29.760 --> 01:32.660
That's in life and physically,
mentally, spiritually,

01:32.660 --> 01:36.170
socially push yourself
outside of your comfort zone

01:36.170 --> 01:39.040
so that you become stronger
and continue to push yourself

01:39.040 --> 01:40.450
to different levels.

01:40.450 --> 01:44.118
Until the next time Team
AUAB my challenge to you is

01:44.118 --> 01:45.800
don't get complacent.

01:45.800 --> 01:47.640
Keep doing the right thing.

01:47.640 --> 01:48.560
Let's do it big.

01:48.560 --> 01:50.983
It's your man Chief Bruce, rolling out.
