Now Eric produces massive success for himself and others speaking at churches, schools, and wherever else there is life\\u2014he goes to motivate and inspire. American success is real but you have to go out and get it. Eric Thomas grinds to the grind. He says you must have Intrinsic motivation. Don\\u2019t grind for the wrong reason. Don\\u2019t make excuses. Outwork and out hustle people. Excuse are everywhere and people complain about not having enough support. Most people want the reward, but not grind. They want the lottery. Shoot for the Nobel Prize. It is about changing people\\u2019s lives. Eric says the problem with education is that for many students there is no clear purpose, you go to school because you have to. Eric had to be rich because he decided he couldn\\u2019t be stuck at a job\\u2014he wants to own his time. It\\u2019s not just about having a nice house and nice cars, being rich allows Eric be able to buy his wife the expensive medication she needs. TGIM is better than TGIF\\u2014keep grinding!'
