Be honest enough to know what you want for yourself, your family and your legacy; be humble enough to know when to ask for help; and lastly, be disciplined enough to act on the blessings you receive.
Tyrese often discusses people who will beg and pray for the Lord to work miracles in their lives, but do none of the work necessary to achieve said "miracles". He views this as being disrespectful to God (whomever it is you pray to), as the blessings and visions that you have received were meant for YOU to act upon.
Your inaction is almost like a clog in a drain of progress and that drain needs to be unclogged. So, if you're not up to the task, guess what: these insights will be sent to someone else for them to come alive.
Bottom Line: ACT ON YOUR VISION!

If you don't think you're worth it, who will? Stop attending your own pity party. Step out of yourself, try to change your perspective and attack the situation objectively. Stop letting your ego (or lack thereof) cloud your judgement.
You could be the most talented person in your field but if you are person swimming in negativity, your circumstances and your career will never have a chance to take off.
Push yourself past your limits sometimes to get the job done. You may not be the best *insert your ideal you* yet, but once you commit yourself to your vision, it can become your reality.
"When you have clarity, you now can make a choice and the choice is to get out of all the things that have been mentally abusing you and physically attacking you."

You know who you are, where you are, what you like and what you don't like and you are the only one capable of orchestrating the life you dream of. If you feel constantly drained by the people around you or the environment that you are in, change it. No one is forcing you to go to the job you hate or to hang out with your soul crushing "friends". These cards are all in your hands.
You don't think you're smart enough, fit enough, brave enough, or even happy enough? CHANGE IT. Invest the time that is required and start developing yourself.
Read a book a week (or listen to an audiotape), watch motivational videos on YouTube, sign up for a course, start exercising and eating well. It only takes one brick at a time to build "the perfect house". (Inspired by Will Smith)
“You are the master of your environment. You’ve got your own head, your own mind. So once you figure out what you want for yourself, you have to create the proper environment to make sure you can live out all the things you want.”

Now, this ties in to #2. “Change your mind and it will change your life. If nothing around you changes, changes the things that are around you.”
If you allow the little things in life to hold you back from what you need to do, in order to have what you want to have: then you will never have what you want to have. Make sense?
The things in your life may not always be "that little," but at the end of the day: there have been people, there are people and there always will be people better off than you, just as there will be those worse off than you.
Either way, that's NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. This is your life: focus on you and what you can do in YOUR life.
Swallow your ego, do the ground work and start busting down doors - time is running.
All you ever have is the moment you are in. "Tomorrow" and "some day" are never coming - today is always all you have to work with. Stay ready. Get it done.

People are going to talk about you whether you like it or not. As Aristotle famously wrote, "To avoid criticism say nothing, do nothing, be nothing."
Be nothing? I don't think that's what you had in mind, you want to be something. So, lock into who you are, truly become one with yourself and let the noise of the world, fade away.
If you focus on everything everyone thinks you should be or do, then you'll never live to be all that you can and were meant to be. The moment you stop obsessing about what everyone else thinks, is the moment you can truly start living out your destiny, because frankly, "a tiger doesn't lose sleep over the opinion of sheep."
