Eric Thomas

The glow-up is earned, not given.

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 be delusional… #etthehiphoppreacher #ericthomas #motivationalvideo #mindset

Greatness is upon you...ACT LIKE IT! Somebody is depending on YOU to show up. That’s why you can’t afford to hit the snooze button tomorrow. Every day you wake up, you’ve got an opportunity to be the example. You might be the only inspiration someone sees today. Who’s counting on YOU to show up today? #ericthomas #etthehiphoppreacher #greatness #beastmode

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

Drop a ❤️ if you're ready to stand up and be the change our communities need. Let me share something real with you, fam. Back in the day, a young boy named Yummy Sandifer, just 11 years old from the south side of Chicago, was tragically shot 11 times in the back of the head, execution-style, by our own people. It hit me hard, made me realize something profound – we've got two enemies to fight. I had to grow up and get right, not just for myself, but to stand up for those who can't. Our communities need us to rise above the violence and the negativity. We can't let our history be in vain. Our ancestors like Martin and Malcolm didn't pave the way for us to go backwards. It's time to step up and make a change, starting from within. #yummysandifer #ericthomas #etthehiphoppreacher #amen🙏

Stop comparing, start believing. You’re not meant to walk anyone else’s journey but YOURS! Stop worrying about their table, focus on the VALUE you bring to yours. Limited thinking is the only thing holding you back. The truth? You’re just as special, powerful, and gifted as anyone else out there. But it’s not about proving it to them, it’s about proving it to YOU. What’s one gift or strength you’re ready to own today? #ericthomas #etthehiphoppreacher #greatness #motivationalvideo #beastmode

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 owe yourself an apology. Sometimes the hardest thing you’ll ever do… is look in the mirror and own it. What’s one thing you owe yourself an apology for today? #TGIM #ericthomas #etthehiphoppreacher

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

Every day I’m waking up and I’m looking for that opportunity like my life depends on it …because it does. The second you stop growing, somebody else who’s hungry will pass you up. Are you grinding today like your name, your family, your destiny depends on it? #TGIM #ericthomas #ericthomasmotivation

It’s time to create a legacy. #ericthomas #greatness #etthehiphoppreacher #beastmode

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

Are you ready? #ericthomas #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #TGIM

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

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

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

Your apps are updated, but your attitude is expired. Your phone’s got more growth than you. How long you going to live like that? Upgrade your faith. Upgrade your mindset. Upgrade your hustle. Stop walking around like a gazelle when there’s a lion inside you. What outdated version of you do you need to delete today to make room for the upgrade? #ericthomas #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #mindset

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

I believed in myself even when my mother didn’t. #ericthomas #etthehiphoppreacher #motivationalvideo #beastmode
