  Speaker 1: who are out there on the playing field. Now, when
• 2:01

• 2:05
  Speaker 1: challenges in front of you. You're going to be open
• 2:07

• 2:12
  Speaker 1: going to be talked about when you don't know the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: people who are talking about you. Now, here's the upside
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: to being the player on the field that's facing all
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: the challenges, to criticisms, the laughing, the joke, to being
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: talked about. He has something going for him. This person, boy, woman, child, girl,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: man has an opportunity to win. They have an opportunity
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: to win. And in the game of life, just because
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: you lose one of the games or you lose one
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: of the matches, it don't mean you've lost. You don't
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: get put out. Keep playing. And when you're playing, here's
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the upside. You have the opportunity to win. But guess what,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: you're gonna win some of the matches. You're gonna win
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: some of the points. You're gonna make some of the dunks.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: You're gonna hit some of them over the wall. You're
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: gonna hit some out the park. You're gonna score some goals.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: You will if you're playing the game. Here's the problem
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: with the people who don't face criticism, who nobody boos
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: or cheers for, who sits in the stands and knows
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: neither victory nor defeat. Those people, without realizing it, are
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: facing a set of challenges also. And the challenges they're
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: facing is how I'm gonna live with myself?
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: What I'm gonna do? Now?
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: What direction am I going in? Where am I live?
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Wonder what job will hire me? Wonder if I can
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: get paid for criticizing?
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Ah, woe is me?
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I can't find the purpose in my life. And man,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I'm just waking up in a state of confusion. I
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: don't know what to do. Now, let me ask you something,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: which one of them set the challenges you'd rather be
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: faced with? Because if I'm on the flow playing, if
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I'm on the field playing, if I'm out on the
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: court playing, then guess what I got a chance at winning.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: But guess what I'm doing every day while I'm playing.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: I'm strategizing. I'm waking up with a purpose. I'm waking
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: up trying to come up with another angle. I'm in
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: pursuit of a goal every single day. Versus the people
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: in the stands who know neither victory nor defeat.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Get in the game, face the challenges.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Better yourself, better your wife, better your children, better your condition,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: better your employment status, better your job, better your career.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Take a shot. Come on, man, what you waiting on?
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Because the alternative is to watch other people play the game?
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: You know what I just do? Sometimes sometimes I just I.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Get Forbes magazine or Money magazine, or sometimes I still
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: grab a copy of the rob Report.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: I just flip through it just to see. I used
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: to get this book called Unique Homes.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Unique Homes is a magazine that just has a lot
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: of extravagant houses that's on sale.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Across the country, across the world. I used to flip through.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Man, let me just see, man, what the people that's
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: playing the game out there doing. Stop watching other people
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: become successful when you could very easily be you if
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: you make the decision. But when you make the decision
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to become successful, get ready for a series of challenges.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I think it's more difficult not to accept the challenge.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: I think it's for me. This is just for me.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: It may not be the case for you. For me,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: I think it's far more difficult to wake up and
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: just see how life gonna go today, because man, it
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: could just deal you any kind of hand today. You
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: understand I don't like, you know, spades. Let's talk a
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: card game, for example, the game of spades. Really, man,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: it ain't a whole lot you can do if you
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: don't get no spades. Really, it's a little couple of
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: little strategies you're gonna do. But you can have all
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: this age, king, queen, diamond all you want. But man,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: you ain't got no spades. They cutting them. You're in trouble.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Be it.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: With different game. You can create what's in your hand.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: You got dealt a hand too, But you can create
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: a hand. You can call a trump. You can make
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: diamonds your spades. You can make hard to clubs your spades.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. You can do something with it. It's
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: a different game, man, You can strategize. I would rather
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: have a say so in my life than to wake
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: up every day and just see how it's going. I
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: think it's more difficult to not accept the challenge to
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: be something than it is to accept the challenge to
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: be something. I think it's more difficult to sit around
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: and not be nothing. I think it's harder to watch
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: everybody in life going somewhere but mine. I think it
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: would be very difficult for me to sit here and
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: hear them talking about other people that never mentioned my name.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: It would be difficult for me to see everybody rise
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: and getting promotions accept me. That would be difficult for me.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: It may not be for you, but for me it
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: would be quite challenging. I would rather accept the challenge
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: of making something out of my life than to sit
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: there and criticize those and then watch and see how
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: my life just may go.
• 7:57
