“And most people who claim to have killer instinct rarely do, because when you have that kind of power, you don’t talk about it. You don’t think about it. You just use it.” (Relentless Quotes)

“Anyone can start something. Few can finish. Priorities change if you don’t constantly protect and defend them.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“As you sit back doing nothing because you’re afraid to make a mistake, someone else is out there making all kinds of mistakes, learning from them, and getting to where you wanted to be. And probably laughing at your weakness.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“At some point, whether you’re in the boardroom or the locker room or anywhere else you want to excel, someone is going to point in your direction and say, “You.” It may be an opportunity that lasts a minute, maybe ten minutes, maybe a week or a month. But what you do in that time is going to determine what you’re going to do for a long time after.”

Tim S. Grover

“At the highest level of success in any area, everyone has reached some degree of outstanding achievement, so we’re talking about shades of greatness. But if you want to be the very best of the best, it’s the details that make the difference.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Athletes spend so much time working on their physical excellence they sometimes forget that respect isn’t just about what you can do physically; you have to be able to perform intellectually and mentally as well. The way you conduct yourself in all areas of your life, your ability to show intelligence and class and self-control… those are the things that separate you from the rest of the pack.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Being relentless means demanding more of yourself than anyone else could ever demand of you, knowing that every time you stop, you can still do more. You must do more.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Being the best means engineering your life so you never stop until you get what you want, and then you keep going until you get what’s next. And then you go for even more.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Bottom line if you want success of any kind: you have to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Every time you think you can’t, you have to do it anyway. That last mile, the last set, the last five minutes on the clock.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Cleaners understand they don’t have to love the work to be successful; they just have to be relentless about achieving it, and everything else in between is a diversion and a distraction from the ultimate prize.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Controlled anger is a deadly weapon, in the right hands. I’m not talking about a raging volcano that can’t be managed from inside or outside, but anger you can restrain and turn into energy. All Cleaners have that slow-burning, blue-hot internal anger, and it works if they can control and maintain it.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Deep inside you, there’s an undeniable force driving your actions, the part of you that refuses to be ordinary, the piece that stays raw and untamed. Not just instinct, but killer instinct.”

Tim S. Grover

Relentless Quotes

 “Do. The. Work. Every day, you have to do something you don’t want to do. Every day. Challenge yourself to be uncomfortable, push past the apathy and laziness and fear. Otherwise, the next day you’re going to have two things you don’t want to do, then three and four and five, and pretty soon, you can’t even get back to the first thing. And then all you can do is beat yourself up for the mess you’ve created, and now you’ve got a mental barrier to go along with the physical barriers.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Don’t be jealous of someone if you had the same opportunity and you let it slip away.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Every dream you imagine, everything you see and hear and feel in your sleep, that’s not a fantasy, that’s your deep instinct telling you it can all be real. Follow those visions and dreams and desires, and believe what you know. Only you can turn those dreams into reality. Never stop until you do.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Every minute, every hour, every day that you sit around trying to figure out what to do, someone else is already doing it. While you’re trying to choose whether to go left or right, this way or that way, someone else is already there. While you’re paralyzed from overthinking and overanalyzing your next move, someone else went with his gut and beat you to it. Make a choice, or a choice will be made for you.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Everyone is given some ability at birth. Not everyone finds out what that ability is. Sometimes you find it on your own, sometimes it has to be shown to you. Either way, it’s there. At the same time, there are abilities you are not given. Our challenge in life is to use the abilities we have, and to compensate for the abilities we don’t have.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Failure is what happens when you decide you failed. Until then, you’re still always looking for ways to get to where you want to be.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Figure out what you do, then do it. And do it better than anyone else.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Fuck “try.” Trying is an open invitation to failure, just another way of saying, “If I fail, it’s not my fault, I tried.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Get comfortable being uncomfortable, or find another place to fail.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Greatness makes you a legend; being the best makes you an icon. If you want to be great, deliver the unexpected. If you want to be the best, deliver a miracle.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

 “Have the confidence to say when you’ve screwed up, and people will respect you for it. If you did it, own it. If you said it, stand by it. Not just the mistakes, but all your decisions and choices. That’s your reputation. Make it count.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Here’s the key: I’m not going to tell you how to change. People don’t change. I want you to trust who you already are, and get to that Zone where you can shut out all the noise, all the negativity and fear and distractions and lies, and achieve whatever you want, in whatever you do.”

Tim S. Grover

“I’m not going to tell you how to change. People don’t change. I want you to trust who you already are, and get to that Zone where you can shut out all the noise, all the negativity and fear and distractions and lies, and achieve whatever you want, in whatever you do.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“I’ve made tons of mistakes, I’m going to make plenty more. But I never think of them as failures. Failure to me is when you bring other people into it, when you’re looking for an out instead of accepting your own mistake and planning a route to resolving the issue. Once you start blaming others, you’re admitting you had no control over the situation. And without that control, you can’t create a solution.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“If you want to be the best, you never have the luxury of shrugging off a bad performance. You face it, fix it, and prepare to do better next time.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“If you want to go somewhere new, you have to throw out the tired, old map and stop traveling the same road to the same dead end.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“If you’re relentless, there is no halfway, no could or should or maybe. Don’t tell me the glass is half-full or half-empty; you either have something in that glass or you don’t. Decide. Commit. Act. Succeed. Repeat.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“In anything you do, it takes no talent to work hard. You just have to want to do it.”

Tim S. Grover

“In order to have what you really want, you must first be who you really are.”

“Mental dominance is what ultimately makes you unstoppable”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Money doesn’t make you smart, it doesn’t make you a good businessman, and it sure doesn’t make you better looking. Most of the time it makes you soft, complacent, and mistakenly confident about your future.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Most people are the lion in the cage. Safe, tame, predictable, waiting for something to happen. But for humans, the cage isn’t made of glass and steel bars; it’s made of bad advice and low self-esteem and bullshit rules and tortured thinking about what you can’t do or what you’re supposed to do.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Most people run from stress. I run to it. Stress keeps you sharp, it challenges you in ways you never imagined and forces you to solve issues and manage situations that send weaker people running for cover. You can’t succeed without it. Your level of success is defined by how well you embrace it and manage it.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“No matter what you want for yourself, whether your ambitions take you to the gym or the office or anywhere else you want to be, your ultimate power source will come from the neck up, not the neck down.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Pain comes in all sorts of disguises – physical, mental, emotional. Do you need to be pain-free? Or can you push past it and stand by your commitment and decision to go further? It’s your choice. The outcome is on you.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“People who start at the top never understand what they missed at the bottom. The guy who started by sorting the mail, or cleaning the restaurant late at night, or fixing the equipment at the gym, that’s the guy who knows how things get done. After he’s eventually worked his way up through the ranks, he knows how everything works, why it works, what to do when it stops working. That’s the guy who will have longevity and value and impact, because he knows what it took to get to the top. You can’t claim you ran a marathon if you started at the seventeenth mile.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Physical dominance can make you great. Mental dominance is what ultimately makes you unstoppable.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Pressure can bust pipes, but it can also make diamonds. If you take the negative view, it will crush you; now you’re in an “I can’t do this” frame of mind. But the positive view is that pressure is a challenge that will define you; it gives you the opportunity to see how much you can take, how hard you can go.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Really, is there that big a difference between the instincts of a powerful businessman and a powerful crime boss and a powerful athlete? They’re all “killers” in their field, driven to be the best, diabolical in their strategy for reeling in and crushing the competition, equally relentless in their desire to win at all costs, and none of their victims sees them coming until it’s too late. They’re not necessarily killing with guns, they’re killing with skill and craft and mental weaponry. They’re all brilliant at what they do. And they all share the same objective: Attack, control, win. Anything to get the end result.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Relentless is about never being satisfied, always driving to be the best, and then getting even better.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Talk never goes up in price, it’s always free, and you usually get what you pay for.”

Relentless

“That’s the trademark of a dangerous competitor: he doesn’t have to know what’s coming because whatever you show him, he’s ready. No fear of failure.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

 “The greatest battles you will ever fight are with yourself, and you must always be your toughest opponent. Always demand more of yourself than others demand of you.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“The only way you can light other people on fire is to be lit yourself, from the inside. Professional, cool, focused.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“The truth is simple. It requires no explanation, analysis, rationale, or excuse; it’s just a simple statement that leaves no doubt. You can look at it from every angle, hold it up to the light, flip it over, slice it up, smash it with an ax… it’s still the truth.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“There is zero chance you’ll get anywhere if you allow yourself to become paralyzed by soft excuses and countless reasons why you’ll never get to where you want to be. Trust your gut to navigate the hard road to get there. The satisfaction and sense of achievement will blow your mind when you finally arrive, knowing you arrived on your own with only your instincts to guide you.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“There’s a difference between confidence and cockiness: confidence means recognizing something isn’t working and having the flexibility and knowledge to make adjustments; cockiness is the inability to admit when something isn’t working, and repeating the same mistakes over and over because you stubbornly can’t admit you’re wrong.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“To be the best, whether in sports or business or any other aspect of life, it’s never enough to just get to the top; you have to stay there, and then you have to climb higher, because there’s always someone right behind you trying to catch up.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“To me, it means nothing when people say they “like” you. Like is average. It leaves no impact, no heat, nothing memorable. It’s like being “nice”… it’s just okay. But it’s a million miles from respect, admiration, trust.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“Two things you can’t let anyone take from you: you can’t let them take away your reputation, and you can’t let them take away your balls.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“We’re all born bad. Sorry, but that’s the truth. Born bad, taught to be good. Born bad. Taught to be good. Or if you prefer: born relentless, taught to relent.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“When you reduce your competition to whining that you “got lucky,” you know you’re doing something right.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“When you’re the guy at the top, you show others how to act, you don’t drop down to their level. You command respect and make them measure up to your standards, not the other way around. You’re not here to make friends. You’re here because you’re the best, and you’re not afraid to show it.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“You cannot understand what it means to be relentless until you have struggled to possess something that’s just out of your reach. Over and over, as soon as you touch it, it moves farther away. But something inside you – that killer instinct – makes you keep going, reaching, until you finally grab it and fight with all your might to keep holding on. Anyone can take what’s sitting right in front of him. Only when you’re truly relentless can you understand the determination to keep pursuing a target that never stops moving.”

Tim S. Grover
Relentless

“You make decisions, not suggestions; you know the answer while everyone else is still asking questions.”
