• 0:27
  Speaker 1: vision show parish. Well, you know they're talking about everybody. Now.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you what this meant to me, because
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: that was a time that I wasn't pursuing my dreams.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: And I'm gonna tell you what I felt like. I
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: felt like I was dying. I really really did. When
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: I wasn't doing the thing that I was born to do.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: I was constantly searching for what it was to do.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: And I mean I tried everything. I've worked at engine plants,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: auto industry, I've been in the insurance industry. I've had
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: my own business. I've tried selling Amway, Shackly products, did
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Gregory Bohemian diet, I did though Al Williams Insurance, I
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: did Amway. It wasn't nothing. I was not willing to
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: try to try to accomplish my goals, my goals were
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: to be free and to be well off. Those were
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: my goals, to be free and to be well off.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Now those were my goals. That doesn't have to be
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: your goals. See, everybody's different. Your goal may be to
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: climb the corporate letter. Do that. I applaud that your
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: goal may be to owner business, being an entrepreneur, do that.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: I applaud that your goal may be to become a teacher.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Do that, a nurse, a police officer, a fireman. I
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: applaud that that's your goal. It takes all of these
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: people to make this world go round. But you know
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: what you've got to do. You've got to pursue that dream.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Anything else, man, is going to leave you unfulfilled. It's
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: going to leave you lacking. Man, What a horrible existence
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: that will be if you do that for the rest
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: of your life. If you settle for not being what
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: you could have been, by settling for just being what
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you are now. I know that being what you are,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: being what you wanna be is going to require more
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: of an effort. But ain't that what it's about. Why
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: would you settle for being less than your maximum? Why
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: would you just kick back and go, well, oh, well,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: this is it for me? When they don't have to be,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: it can be so much more. I would wake I
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: would rather wake up with the anticipation of trying to
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: accomplish what it is I wanted to become. I would
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: rather just wake up that way instead of waking up
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: miserable every morning, dreading to go down to this job
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: that I care nothing about. Now, look, well, Steve, I
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: can't just quit my job. Okay, okay, So what's the alternative?
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: So you are just gonna keep going down there and
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: not and not do what you were born to do.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I understand it. I understand that you have responsibilities. I
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: understand that there's people counting on you. I understand you
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: got overhead, house note, car note, bills, groceries. I understand that.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: But I also understand you gonna have that anyway. I
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: understand that. What I'm trying to get you to understand
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: is is it worth the chance of being what you
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: could be? I think it is. I think it is.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I think it's worth a shot to go and do
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the thing that you were born to do. I think
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: it's worth a shot to go and see how you
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: can maximize your potential as a person. I think it's
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: worth a shot to wake up every day and pursue
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: a going in a dream that you admire and hope
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and a spot to become. I think it's worth a shot.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: I do, and I'm just here encurage those of you
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: that may be on the fence about it. Look, this
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: ain't gonna touch everybody. Oh, I understand that. I understand
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: that fully, And I guess I'm not talking to. I'm
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: just talking to the ones that this can hit with
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: that if you know, if you are sitting up and
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: you've ever wondered, if you've ever had this thought, Man,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: it's got to be more to life than this right here,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: I promise you that's cause it is. And that's God
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: telling you over and over and over. If you are
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: getting tired of settling for who you are, then it's
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: time for you to flip the script and becomes something else.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: It's nothing wrong with reinventing yourself. I was talking to
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: my girl last night. She said, Steve, I can't tell
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: you how many times I have to watch you reinvent yourself.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Just her appreciation, just her appreciating that means the world
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: to me. But you can do it, man, It's never
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: too late to reinvent yourself. Listen to me, y'all, change
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: is inevitable. You have two choices. You can react to
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: the change, or you can participate in the change. Because
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: it's coming. It's inevitable. Now, which one you're gonna do.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: If you react to it, you're gonna be behind the
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: eight ball. If you participate in it, you have a say.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Soul is your life. God gave us the power of choice.
• 6:15
