• 0:19
  Speaker 1: never give up.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Go I mean just knowing that you need to, like
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: go all in here and do everything you possibly can
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: and work as hard you have this power as possible,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: you know to make it happen.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: You have this power. Now is it the time to wait?
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: Now is it the time to waste?
• 0:37

• 0:39
  Speaker 2: people said couldn't be done, the more fire up it
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: got me.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Go.
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: You are powerful, You are full of courage, You are unique,
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: You are independent. You have direction, you write the rules.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: Step up to your authority and take it. Take the opportunity.
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: This is your chance, your chance to change, your chance
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: to so much more. This is your opportunity to start
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: the process of your self improvement, the self improvement that
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: defines your future, a future full of success.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: This is the opportunity. This is your opportunity. Don't just
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: throw it away. This is how it all begins for you.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: This is where it can finally happen for you, where
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: you can grow and be selfish and not wait for
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: the approval of others. Your time to be your best
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: version of yourself. This is for you, you and only you.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Before in my life so many failures, you know, growing
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: up in things, and the way deal with it is
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: not to dwell on it at all. You just have
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: to basically as soon as you recognize it, first of all,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: being objective about progress, so constantly re evaluating all the
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: new information. So you could basically say, you know, here's
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: the vision, and you start marching and information is coming
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: at you every day, competition, things that market the world,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: whatever you need to take in that information and then
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: kind of reassess constantly, so you could be objective about
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: making decisions. And if you get to a point where
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: you realize what you thought was true a year ago
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: or two years ago is not true anymore given all
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: this new information, now where do you need to be?
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: And as soon as you recognize that, being able to
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: tell people I was wrong, forget that, I know I
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: said that that was when the information was this new information.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Knew We're going to pivot and then get everybody aligned
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: around it, but willing to take that risk of looking
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: stupid and basically just changing your mind. And sometimes that
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: happens over a year or two years. Sometimes it could
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: be months. You could be months and say, you know
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: what wrong. Objectively, we've got some new let's go in
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: this direction. So I think you can't dwell. You just
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: have to reassess and go. If you're thinking about the
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: failure or feel bad even for a minute, that's just
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: a minute of lost time going forward. The first thing
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: is people think the idea is not good enough, and
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: they think the idea is way more important than it
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: really is, and people try and find ideas that have
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: never been done before, which usually result in these little businesses.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: I challenge people all the time to say, it's not
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: about the idea, it's about the execution. Find and pick
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: any industry out there. There's a way to disrupt it.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: There's already a big market. If you could just figure
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: out a way to do it a little bit better
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: and execute well, you could make a nice return on capital.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Doesn't have to be anything super innovative. So I think
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: that's what holds people back. I think once people get going,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: I think they spend too much time thinking about all
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: the things that could go wrong, and they get overwhelmed
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: that it literally just paralyzes them. And I'd always say, like,
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: forget about all that stuff. Today's today. What's the biggest
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: step you can take today toward your vision? Well, how
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: did you make the most progress against the vision today?
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: So I always push people to be really clear about
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: the vision and then and then they take that step,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: and then it's the next day and they say, well, what, no, no,
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: don't focus on that. What's the biggest step you And
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: as you start lining up five, six, seven, eight weeks
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: months in a row, and you're like, wow, look back,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: we had some serious progress, and focus on like how
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: far you've come, And keep the vision in mind, But
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: don't get caught up between today and the vision, because
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: you'll just you'll submit out of control.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: You have this problem. Go become undefeated, keep your resolve
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: and silence the critic within. Forget the other critics, because
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: they will not respect you at the bottom, they'll ignore
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: you in the middle, and they will be resentful at
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: the top. As you rise without negativity and doubt, you
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: become stronger, wiser, and more determined. Your environment will still
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: be new, and you will still consciously and unconsciously structure
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: yourself and restructure your sense of self. You will always
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: be learning, adapting, and patient in the pursuit your love
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: will be unbound and unpretentious, and your greatest achievement proceeds
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: the last.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: First of all, people need to feel an intense sense
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: of ownership of their idea. So making sure that you
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: know when somebody has an idea, you can help them
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: mold it, but it's their idea, and they have to
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: feel like they're accountable to it, to the idea, pushing
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: them to go out there and tell the world, friends, family,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: everyone about their idea and what their vision is, what
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: they hope to achieve. And it's amazing how infectious that
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: can be when somebody gets out there and telling people like, wow,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: that's a really good idea, or can you do that?
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Or I don't think you can do that, or and
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: you start whether whether it's some I says you can't
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: do it, or they say, well it sounds like an
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: amazing idea. In either case, it's pretty motivating. I find
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: the people that are scared to tell people about it
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: because they feel like some sense of like now I'm
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: kind of committed or you know, I've told all my
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: friends about this big idea I'm going to go do,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: so just getting somebody to go out there, It's kind
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: of like, you know, if you want to work out,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: they say, you know, you know, put your shorts, your
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: t shirt, your shoes right next to the bed, get
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: out of bed and put them on, and then once
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: you get them on, it's it's easy to go. It's
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: similar kind of thing. It's like, once you have your idea,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: start telling everybody you know about this idea and how
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: you're going to do it. And usually that kind of
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: starts to snowball and then people feel a sense of
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: accountability to it. Let's go with the core, you know,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: be good to people, chief people as you want to
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: be treated, Be empathetic, be kind. What drives someone's happiness
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: at the end of the day when you kind of
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: when you really get into it, it's people want to
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: be understood, they want to be heard, they want to
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: feel like that there's something bigger than just dollars and
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: cents in business. And I think being empathetic is putting
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: yourself in somebody's situation and being able to relate to
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: how they feel about business situation, things outside of business,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: personal stuff, and I think that builds a lot of
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: trust and respect and people willing to be more loyal
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: and committed and willing to give the best that they've
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: got when they feel it's also feeling a safety too.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: I think when people feel listened to, heard and understood,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: they feel safer. And a lot of times people don't
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: give their best or do their best because they feel unsafe,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: which brings to toll to the topic around you know,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: just creating an inclusive work environment, which I think is
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: super important, and in the empathy place a big part
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: of that.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Start now, start where you are. Start with fear, Start
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: with pain, start with doubt, start with hands shaking, start
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: with voice trembling. Let's start. Go, start and don't stop.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Start where you are, with what you have. Just start.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: Go.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Surround yourself with people who push you to do and
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: be better. The biggest communication problem is that we don't
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: listen to understand. We listen only to reply. Rock Bottom
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: will teach you lessons that mountaintops never will.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Let them run, let them create, not get in their way.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Go.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Every morning you have two choices. Continue to sleep with
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: your dream, or wake up and chase them. Knowing is
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: not enough, We must apply. Willing is not enough. We
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: must do. If you focus on the result, you may lose,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: but if you focus on enjoying the process, you will
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: always win.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: It makes no.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Sense why people think that at eighteen twenty two thirty
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: they have to have their life figured out, When figuring
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: everything out is a forever game. You will continue to
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: suffer if you have an emotional reaction to everything that's
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: said to you. True power is sitting back and observing
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: everything with logic. If words can control you, that means
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: that everything else can control you. Breathe and allow things
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: to pass. The most dangerous person is the one who listens, thinks,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: and observes. Stop making excuses. Yesterday you said tomorrow, it's
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: already tomorrow, and you are no closer to your dreams.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: It's easy to spot a yellow car when you're always
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: thinking of a yellow car, and it's easy to spot
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: an opportunity when you're always thinking of an opportunity. And
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: it's easy to spot a reason be mad when you're
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: always thinking of being mad. You become what you constantly
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: think about. Your thoughts become words, Your words become actions.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Your actions become habits. Your habits become character. Character is
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: who you are and determines your path and life. You
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: make your own destiny, and people don't lack strength.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: They like will.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: What defines us is how well we rise after falling.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Give people time, give people space. Don't beg anyone to stay,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: let them wrong. What's meant for you will always be yours.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: When the battle of life is upon you, remember you
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: are strong when the odds are stacked against you. Remember
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: you are powerful When it all gets too much, Remember
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: it's in the darkness where the fire is lifting.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: Congratulations, you're a winner.
