DON'T QUIT ON YOURSELF, GET BACK UP AND KEEP GOING - Motivational Speech

[Music] change happens when the pain of staying the same becomes greater than the pain of making a change what you realize is a lot of the things that you feared or hated or embarrassed about as a child end up being the Genesis of the things that you're most proud about as an adult be careful what you aim at what you aim at determines the way the world manifests itself to you and so if the world is manifesting itself in a very negative way one thing to ask is are you aiming at the right thing [Music] so many people are suffering in Comfort meaning they're constantly trying to add things even though they're suffering in their life prison of our minds the prison of the emotions we don't want to feel the prison of feeling like we're less the prison of feeling like my life doesn't matter the prison of not having a sense of direction the prison of feeling invisible and I believe suffering comes from a place in our life where we're not pursuing our dreams we're not pursuing our potential I guarantee that there are people that have been sitting on an idea for more than a decade sitting on a dream for over 10 years and that's horrible that's where dreams die that's where ideas die that's where projects die so write down the top three things you need to do and then you go do those three things imagine if you wrote down the three things you needed to do tomorrow and then tomorrow you woke up and you did them and then imagine if you did that for five years where would you be in life you got to quit negotiating the price right now make the decision that any price is worth it as long as it's legal ethical and moral for you to make your family proud of you for you to make your dream happen stop negotiating the Priceless negotiation you keep doing in your mind is this really where I'm supposed to be this is what I'm supposed to be doing steals all your energy it steals your focus but those who get laser focused become totally immersed in your dream that know those babies of yours your parents guess what they're worth the sacrifice you spend the rest of your life worrying about everybody thinks about you someday you'll never have to worry about it again because when you die nobody will remember you were here [Music] you lose friends well you're going to lose the friends who don't want the best for you those the friends you want in 10 years I mean you lose friends well maybe you gain new friends maybe you gain better friends or maybe Miracle of Miracles your friends pick up their their mess too and move forward but you have to contemplate the price you pay for inaction yeah it excites me I think that's the difference is that when when I have self-doubt it excites me because it's like okay well you know this is a this is a challenge you know let's see let's see I don't know if I can do it or not but I'm gonna find out what can happen if we decide I'm gonna see what happens when I decide that I am qualified what happens when I decide for myself that I'm going to do something different even when it's cold outside even when it's raining even when it's just too difficult to get out of bed the person that has the ability to get up and stay focused and consistent is a disciplined [ __ ] change isn't for those who need it for those who want it translation it's all about willingness willingness born out of a desire to survive I suppose but also pain you don't have in pain to change you don't have to hit rock bottom in order to make alterations to your life change is always within your grasp if you can summon the willingness to it just for it stop worrying about what these people think about you live your dream worry about the people you love by the way I know some of the very people you're doing it for the ones not supporting you they're the ones telling you to quit just do it anyway I want to tell you this what you focus on is what you will feel if you change your focus you will change what you feel and it will change your life [Music] you're in this job you hate and it's 10 years from now how does that look think about that you already know you're in a little hell you know perfectly well it's going to get worse which is more frightening action or inaction my brain can feel a certain way but it's not going to choose how I behave all the time I just can't let it do it anymore I'm gonna have setbacks I know but if I'm feeling bad that doesn't mean I'm doing bad that doesn't mean I am bad that doesn't mean that I can't still take some action because yeah nothing changes and nothing changes man that in order for something to change there needs to be change allow yourself to be more open and more vulnerable because what is hidden cannot be healed it is in the light and the sharing and the trust and the vulnerability that together we get better and we will fight and in fighting we will win and if not if not the battle and if not the war we will win because our spirit it will never surrender [Music] and that that is the ultimate Victory to hold your head high and even even in the face of inescapable defeat to stand and to fight that is to win [Music] when when bad things are happening I am going to try and be the one good thing [Music] foreign [Music]
