- 0:04Speaker 1: We tell ourselves that success is reserved for those who
- 0:08Speaker 1: are lucky, the talented, the privileged. But let me ask
- 0:12Speaker 1: you this. Why not you? Why not you for that role?
- 0:19Speaker 1: Why not you for that next level? Why not you
- 0:21Speaker 1: for that thing that you've wanted to do for a
- 0:24Speaker 1: while but haven't? How many times have we held ourselves
- 0:27Speaker 1: back thinking that we're not ready? We're not smart enough.
- 0:31Speaker 1: We're not skilled enough. We're not talented enough. enough. We're
- 0:35Speaker 1: not charismatic enough. We aren't enough. Every masterpiece starts as
- 0:44Speaker 1: a work in progress. Every marathon begins with a single step.
- 0:48Speaker 1: You don't need to have it all figured out. You
- 0:51Speaker 1: just need to start. Start where you are. Use what
- 0:56Speaker 1: you have and do what you can and ask yourself
- 0:59Speaker 1: the question of why not you? Because every small action,
- 1:05Speaker 1: every tiny effort is a building block of your future,
- 1:08Speaker 1: is a building block of your life. Yes, the road
- 1:12Speaker 1: ahead won't be easy, but nothing great ever was. Don't
- 1:18Speaker 1: wait for the perfect moment. Don't wait for someone to
- 1:21Speaker 1: give you the green light to say this is when
- 1:24Speaker 1: you're able to go. Don't strive for perfect, strive for better.
- 1:29Speaker 1: There will be times when you feel like giving up.
- 1:32Speaker 1: When the weight of your dream seems too heavy to
- 1:35Speaker 1: carry and sometimes you just have this moment where you
- 1:38Speaker 1: feel like, I just want to put it down. I
- 1:40Speaker 1: want to take a breather. I need a break. But remember,
- 1:44Speaker 1: failures are not the end of the journey. They're a
- 1:48Speaker 1: part of it. Every single day, the world offers us
- 1:57Speaker 1: a new beginning. The sun rises. It's a fresh start.
- 2:01Speaker 1: An open door opens. to endless possibilities. But how often
- 2:06Speaker 1: do we greet the day with a heart full of doubt,
- 2:11Speaker 1: convinced that those possibilities are for someone else and not us,
- 2:16Speaker 1: for our friends, for our families, for people that have
- 2:21Speaker 1: made it. And then we slowly but surely shy away
- 2:28Speaker 1: and stop pursuing the dreams that we have. We scroll
- 2:31Speaker 1: through our feeds and see others achieving great things, starting businesses,
- 2:39Speaker 1: winning races, creating art, and we think, good for them,
- 2:42Speaker 1: but I could never perform that way. Oh, great for
- 2:47Speaker 1: their story, but that's not me. The only thing standing
- 2:53Speaker 1: between you and your dreams is the belief that that
- 2:57Speaker 1: you can achieve them. You're capable of more than you know.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Your potential is absolutely limitless, but it can only be
- 3:06Speaker 1: unlocked by action. Every person who has achieved anything great
- 3:14Speaker 1: started exactly where you are, filled with a doubt, filled
- 3:20Speaker 1: with fear, filled with uncertainty. filled with anxiety that they
- 3:24Speaker 1: don't know if they're going to be able to make it.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Think of the icons, the leaders, the trailblazers. They weren't
- 3:30Speaker 1: born into success. They created it. Day by day, decision
- 3:36Speaker 1: by decision, step by step. Yes, they faced challenges. Yes,
- 3:41Speaker 1: they ran into obstacles. They heard the whispers of doubt
- 3:44Speaker 1: saying in their minds, you don't deserve it. This isn't
- 3:49Speaker 1: for you. They felt and experienced failure more than most.
- 3:55Speaker 1: But here's what they didn't do. They didn't stop. They
- 4:00Speaker 1: didn't quit. And neither should you. How often do we
- 4:04Speaker 1: dim our own light because we believe that we don't
- 4:07Speaker 1: deserve to? We don't deserve that level of success. We
- 4:13Speaker 1: don't deserve that life. But let me tell you something.
- 4:18Speaker 1: The strongest people in the world are the ones that
- 4:21Speaker 1: experience the struggle, that experience the doubt, and they keep going.
- 4:26Speaker 1: That's where you find strength. That's where you find courage.
- 4:33Speaker 1: Every no just opens a door to a potential yes
- 4:37Speaker 1: in the future. Every fall teaches you how to rise again.
- 4:41Speaker 1: These moments don't define you, they refine you. They don't
- 4:46Speaker 1: shape you into someone who can't achieve anything. They shape
- 4:49Speaker 1: you into someone who can achieve the unimaginable. So next
- 4:53Speaker 1: time you feel that doubt creeping, when you wonder if
- 4:59Speaker 1: you're not worthy, ask yourself the question, why not me?
- 5:04Speaker 1: Why shouldn't you be the one to break barriers? Why
- 5:06Speaker 1: shouldn't you be the one to challenge the odds? Why
- 5:09Speaker 1: shouldn't you be the one that is actually able to
- 5:12Speaker 1: create a life of purpose and passion like no one
- 5:15Speaker 1: in your family or your friends ever have before? The
- 5:19Speaker 1: world needs what you have to offer, but you need
- 5:22Speaker 1: to believe that you deserve a seat at the table first.
- 5:27Speaker 1: And when you reach that peak, when you stand at
- 5:30Speaker 1: the top of the mountain of that goal that you
- 5:32Speaker 1: had only dreamed of, looking back at all the hurdles
- 5:35Speaker 1: and all the challenges that you had to overcome, you'll
- 5:38Speaker 1: realize something. It was never about the top of the mountain.
- 5:43Speaker 1: It was about the steps that you took to climb it.
- 5:46Speaker 1: It's the person that you became along the way, the
- 5:50Speaker 1: strength you discovered, the courage that you built. So today,
- 5:57Speaker 1: as you stand on the edge of a new day,
- 5:59Speaker 1: ask yourself, why not me? Why shouldn't I be the
- 6:04Speaker 1: one to make a difference? Why shouldn't I be the
- 6:07Speaker 1: one to live fully, to inspire others? The truth is
- 6:13Speaker 1: there's no reason you can't. The only question is, will you?
- 6:18Speaker 1: The world is waiting for you to step up, to
- 6:21Speaker 1: claim your place in it, to make your mark. You
- 6:23Speaker 1: have the power, the strength, the ability to turn your
- 6:27Speaker 1: dreams into reality. So what are you waiting for? You
- 6:31Speaker 1: don't need anyone's permission to be who you are. You
- 6:34Speaker 1: don't need the green light from anyone to pursue the
- 6:38Speaker 1: dreams that you have. Sometimes we feel like we're not worthy.
- 6:43Speaker 1: Like we don't deserve the win. Like we don't deserve
- 6:46Speaker 1: the success. I'm here to tell you that you do
- 6:50Speaker 1: and that you were made for more. You've been operating
- 6:55Speaker 1: in a fraction of your potential of what you were
- 6:59Speaker 1: built and put on this planet to do. But it's
- 7:03Speaker 1: going to take you leaning in and saying yes before
- 7:07Speaker 1: you're ready and taking action before you think you're prepared
- 7:13Speaker 1: and leaning into the areas of your life that you
- 7:16Speaker 1: don't have a whole lot of confidence in, that you're
- 7:20Speaker 1: not sure of yourself in. That's where success is found.
- 7:26Speaker 1: That's where real progress is made. It is not something
- 7:31Speaker 1: that you are given through luck or through genetics. It
- 7:35Speaker 1: is something you build. So when you have those moments
- 7:40Speaker 1: of doubt, when you feel like you're not enough to
- 7:43Speaker 1: handle it, understand that who you are is made for greatness.
- 7:50Speaker 1: Now it's time to pursue them. Thank you.
