• 0:02
  Speaker 1: You've decided that you're not going to allow your circumstances.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: To define you.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: You've decided that you're not going to allow the offense
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: the things the people lie determine who you become.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: There's two lies we've been told growing up. The first
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: lie is you're nothing, you're stupid, you're worthless, you're not
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: going to make it. And I'm sure many people listening
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: watching you've heard that from teachers, parents, aunts, uncles, whoever
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: it is. And then the other lie that we're actually told,
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: and I don't think it's a lie. I think it's positive,
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: but sometimes it's misconstrued is you can be anything. And
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: we all know that's not true too, and it's unfair
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: because sometimes people get misled. And the Darmer point of
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: view is you can't be anything you want, but you
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: can be everything you are. And what I mean by
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: that is you have a genius, a potential, a power
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: inside of you that you don't know yet why, because
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: you're inexperienced. It's not that you're unqualified, it's your inexperience.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: So people are saying, I'm stopped, I don't know where
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: my life's going. Have then on wine purposes so you're
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: perceiving yourself to be unqualified or underqualified, actually just inexperienced.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: You just haven't done enough things to let the magnet
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: of your life tell you what it's attracted.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: A man is about responsibility, and I think a man,
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: a true man, knows he's the head, but plays you
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: know to tell.
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: Here's what I'm asking you to do.
• 1:38
  Speaker 6: Walk away from the ninety seven percent.
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: Don't use their vocabulary, don't use their excuses, don't go
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: where they go, don't do what they do, don't talk
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: like they talk.
• 1:55
  Speaker 6: It's not what happens that determines the major part of
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: your feel The key is what you do about If
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: you will start that process change, do something different the
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: next ninety days, if you did.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: The last ninety days, like picking up.
• 2:10
  Speaker 6: The bookstor Since you cannot change the circumstances that we
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: can change ourselves. What you have at the moment, you've
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: attracted by the person you become. If you will change,
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: everything will change. For you to have more, you simply
• 2:28
  Speaker 6: have to become for start working on yourself, making these
• 2:32
  Speaker 6: personal changes.
• 2:33
  Speaker 7: It'll all change.
• 2:36
  Speaker 8: You could be given the best opportunity in the world,
• 2:40
  Speaker 8: and if you're not willing to work.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Nothing works.
• 2:45
  Speaker 9: You want to get your work ethics so high that
• 2:47
  Speaker 9: people actually admire you. I'm going to ask you a
• 2:49
  Speaker 9: question right now, do people know you because of your
• 2:53
  Speaker 9: unbelievable work ethic.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: If you can't answer yes to that, man, you're not
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: going to get in that top ten percent.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Did people need to know you for one major thing?
• 3:03
  Speaker 7: First?
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: He works. The guy's there every day. The guy's pushing
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: and shoving. Because the trick is.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: No matter how good your ideas are, how good your
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: art is, if you're not working, man.
• 3:13
  Speaker 10: If you're not vibrating at a frequency, then people said,
• 3:16
  Speaker 10: my god, how a god do all that?
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: If you're not vibrating at that rate.
• 3:20
  Speaker 11: Tremendous work ethic, it's just a muscle now, and it's
• 3:24
  Speaker 11: just a discipline.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: In your life. It's a way. But if you're not
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: working at that level, you're not going to make you
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: get your work ethic out.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: It's the American way.
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: Work ethic.
• 3:37
  Speaker 7: And life gives us not what we want. Life gives
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: us who we are. When you were born, you cried
• 3:48
  Speaker 7: while the world rejoiced. Live your life in such a
• 3:52
  Speaker 7: way that when you die the world cries, well, you rejoice.
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: So now, what else would help you to be attractive
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: to the marketplace besides more than one skill and more
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: than one languages. I've divided it into five, five simple
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: basic fundamentals of ideas to ponder and think about that
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: will increase your value to the marketplace. Could perhaps, like
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: it did for me, multiply your income by two, and
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: then multiply it by three, and then multiply your income
• 4:32
  Speaker 6: by four, and then by five, And once you get there,
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: it's not that difficult to multiply it by ten, because
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: all you have to do is make sure you become
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: more valuable and more valuable and more valuable. You don't
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: have to work on the economy, because here's the first note.
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: Each person's income is determined primarily by their philosophy, not
• 4:58
  Speaker 6: by the economy. Once I understood that, then I said, well,
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: I don't have to go to work on the economy.
• 5:04
  Speaker 6: And the answer was no, You only have to go to.
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: Work on yourself.
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: To make yourself more valuable.
• 5:18
  Speaker 12: Albert Einstein said, imagination is everything. It's the preview to
• 5:23
  Speaker 12: life's coming attraction. But guess what your imagination really is.
• 5:31
  Speaker 12: It's the evidence of things not seen because your imagination
• 5:37
  Speaker 12: you know why it's never done.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Some things not seen because you're the only one can
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: see it.
• 5:42
  Speaker 12: Your imagination is actually God showing you a preview of
• 5:47
  Speaker 12: a coming attraction that He has for you. The moment
• 5:50
  Speaker 12: you don't believe in your imagination, you negate what He
• 5:54
  Speaker 12: got for you. Your imagination is the preview to life's
• 6:00
  Speaker 12: coming attraction. It is the evidence of things not seen
• 6:04
  Speaker 12: because can't nobody see it with you. Your problem is
• 6:07
  Speaker 12: you keep telling your imagination to the wrong people. See,
• 6:12
  Speaker 12: if you want to kill a big dream, tell it
• 6:14
  Speaker 12: to a small minded person.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: It's dead.
• 6:18
  Speaker 12: How many times, man, have you had a tremendous idea
• 6:23
  Speaker 12: something you thought was the one and you went and't
• 6:26
  Speaker 12: told it to your loved ones and your soul called
• 6:31
  Speaker 12: friends and they shot it down. I mean, you was
• 6:36
  Speaker 12: convinced that it was just Oh man, I just came
• 6:39
  Speaker 12: to you and you told it to me, and they
• 6:41
  Speaker 12: shot it down. And you thought, since they was your
• 6:43
  Speaker 12: loved ones and their friends and they got your best.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Interests at heart, you believed them. You was wrong. They
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: talk you let them talk you out of what God
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: got for you.
• 6:53
  Speaker 12: Some of y'all still sitting here with the ambition of
• 6:56
  Speaker 12: opening a business one day. But you scared to go
• 6:58
  Speaker 12: start the business because you got a job and you
• 7:01
  Speaker 12: got bills. Rich people got bills. Everybody got bills. Hell,
• 7:05
  Speaker 12: I got bills you. Oh you ain't everybody owe somebody something.
• 7:11
  Speaker 12: I got something with the bank. Right now, you're gonna
• 7:15
  Speaker 12: let the fact that you got some bills stop you
• 7:18
  Speaker 12: from opening the business. The thing that God can put
• 7:20
  Speaker 12: in your imagination. So you're gonna squash that because you
• 7:24
  Speaker 12: got bills. Everybody got bills. Your real life is in
• 7:34
  Speaker 12: your imagination. Can you grab what I'm telling you?
• 7:40
  Speaker 13: So?
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know what you thought I was gonna say
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: to you. I'm just a real dude. I don't even
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: have the education you all have. I flung out of school.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: I flung. I ain't got no education. I don't use
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: folk syllable words. The only four syllable word I know
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: is my bank account.
• 7:58
  Speaker 12: When I'm sharing with you, it's stuff that everybody can
• 8:02
  Speaker 12: apply today.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: If you're sitting in.
• 8:05
  Speaker 12: Here thinking that you're too old to listen with Steve, Hell,
• 8:08
  Speaker 12: I'm sixty. I'm sixty years old, but I still rely
• 8:13
  Speaker 12: on my imagination. See if you think you're too old
• 8:16
  Speaker 12: to make it let me give you a prime example.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: Colonel Sanders.
• 8:22
  Speaker 12: Colonel Sanders has been frying chicken his whole life. He
• 8:27
  Speaker 12: was telling everybody he had the best chicken in the world.
• 8:30
  Speaker 12: Ain't nobody believing. They turned him down everywhere. Colonel Sanders
• 8:36
  Speaker 12: didn't get a franchise till.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: He was in his sixties.
• 8:40
  Speaker 12: Kentucky Fried Chicken sell more chicken than anybody in the
• 8:45
  Speaker 12: world today.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: So if you're sitting.
• 8:48
  Speaker 12: There thinking cause you got a little gray on you,
• 8:52
  Speaker 12: you're too late. As long as God waking you up
• 8:55
  Speaker 12: in the morning, that's.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: The sign that he ain't through with you. So what
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: you tripping?
• 9:01
  Speaker 12: You're sitting up in here like like God can't do
• 9:03
  Speaker 12: nothing for you because you're sixty. Man, you know what
• 9:06
  Speaker 12: I'm asking God for right now and I'm sixty.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: If you could see my vision.
• 9:11
  Speaker 12: Board, you would be blown away because I got enough
• 9:15
  Speaker 12: right now, I really know.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: But I ain't in the need business. I'm in the
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: won't business.
• 9:20
  Speaker 12: Ain't nothing wrong with wanting something, but going down to
• 9:22
  Speaker 12: these churches, y'all sitting up in here, going down to
• 9:25
  Speaker 12: like keeping you in these little.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Boxing God got a big life for you. The only
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: person ain't get done to look. And I love church.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking church. Don't you don't.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Don't tweet that Steve don't care for the church. No more,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: I didn't say that.
• 9:40
  Speaker 12: But don't go down there, memorize all these scriptures and
• 9:44
  Speaker 12: then don't apply none of them to your life. That's
• 9:47
  Speaker 12: what I'm talking about. Quick going down there, just to
• 9:50
  Speaker 12: go and just get a couple of scriptures that.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: Applying to you.
• 9:53
  Speaker 12: The smallest scripture I ever read changed my life. The
• 9:58
  Speaker 12: scripture real sol you have not cause your ass not.
• 10:07
  Speaker 13: You see successful people. We don't use hope as a
• 10:10
  Speaker 13: strategy because the minute you use the word hope, what
• 10:14
  Speaker 13: you're saying is you have no power. You have no
• 10:18
  Speaker 13: control over the outcome. When you give away that responsibility,
• 10:24
  Speaker 13: you also give away that power. You have no control,
• 10:28
  Speaker 13: you have no.
• 10:28
  Speaker 8: Choice because people perform better when there's no safety in that.
• 10:34
  Speaker 8: People perform better in sports and everything else. If you
• 10:39
  Speaker 8: don't have a plan B. I'm telling you I've never
• 10:44
  Speaker 8: ever had a plan B.
• 10:47
  Speaker 10: Like like most of us, we struggle with those things
• 10:49
  Speaker 10: recurities and say, you know what, but once I get
• 10:53
  Speaker 10: rich and I get my powerful, then.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: I'll feel good.
• 10:58
  Speaker 10: So while you're out the driving the success, the point
• 11:02
  Speaker 10: for it. Even though you feel insecure a lot, you say,
• 11:06
  Speaker 10: I know why. It's because I don't have success yet.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: And that's the key, because it means that we tried.
• 11:12
  Speaker 14: It means that we got up. It means that we
• 11:14
  Speaker 14: cured our fear by taking action over and over and over.
• 11:20
  Speaker 14: What will come will come, and whatever it is, I'm
• 11:24
  Speaker 14: going to learn from that.
• 11:25
  Speaker 13: You guys, remember, if you want to be successful, learn
• 11:29
  Speaker 13: from the other people's mistakes. Don't learn from the successful stars.
• 11:34
  Speaker 9: I need you to be self aware, so I need
• 11:37
  Speaker 9: you to remember that you are always learning in life.
• 11:41
  Speaker 9: You are always learning, and I need you to believe
• 11:44
  Speaker 9: in yourself. I need you to see yourself capable, lovable,
• 11:50
  Speaker 9: and unconditionally worthy of your future.
• 11:54
  Speaker 11: You can go after whatever you want. You just cannot
• 11:57
  Speaker 11: deny anyone else to go after whatever they want. You
• 12:01
  Speaker 11: don't have to wait in line. You don't have to
• 12:03
  Speaker 11: do it the way everybody else has done it. You
• 12:05
  Speaker 11: can do it your way. You can break the rules.
• 12:08
  Speaker 11: You just can't get in the way of somebody else
• 12:10
  Speaker 11: getting what they want.
• 12:12
  Speaker 15: The things that define you as successful existed long before
• 12:17
  Speaker 15: you were becoming successful. The relationship with your family, the
• 12:21
  Speaker 15: health in your body, the ability to command your arm
• 12:25
  Speaker 15: to raise and it raises, the ability to smell the
• 12:29
  Speaker 15: roses and to enjoy laughter, to laugh until your belly hurts,
• 12:33
  Speaker 15: the ability to have faith and pray and see and
• 12:36
  Speaker 15: believe in the unseen.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: Figure out who you are, don't apologize for who you are,
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: and then become even greater than you naturally are at
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: what you are.
• 12:49
  Speaker 16: So many people float down the river of life without
• 12:53
  Speaker 16: ever even putting their paddles in the water, just hoping
• 12:56
  Speaker 16: and praying and dreaming and wishing that they're going to
• 12:59
  Speaker 16: end up somewhere. Good guys, that's not how life works.
• 13:02
  Speaker 16: You know, you have paddles in your boat. You just
• 13:05
  Speaker 16: got to learn to use them.
