Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Stop being you. You let people stick a finger in
- 0:04Speaker 1: your face and tell you you're no good, and when
- 0:06Speaker 1: things got hard, you started looking for something to blame,
- 0:10Speaker 1: like a big shadow.
- 0:15Speaker 2: The least we can do is consider what we've done
- 0:19Speaker 2: and individually, collectively do the best we can to try
- 0:23Speaker 2: and turn this thing around.
- 0:26Speaker 3: I blame no one. I look in the mirror on
- 0:30Speaker 3: the other side of it. What an opportunity we have,
- 0:32Speaker 3: because tomorrow's the first day of the rest of our lives,
- 0:36Speaker 3: So what an opportunity we have.
- 0:38Speaker 4: The huge part of the reason that people fail is
- 0:41Speaker 4: because they don't ever set up the criteria for success.
- 0:49Speaker 1: The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very
- 0:52Speaker 1: mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough
- 0:54Speaker 1: you are. It will beat you to your knees and
- 0:57Speaker 1: keep you there permanently.
- 0:58Speaker 2: If you let it.
- 1:03Speaker 1: Me or nobody who's going to hit as hard as life.
- 1:06Speaker 1: But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about
- 1:09Speaker 1: how hard you can get hit and kick moving forward.
- 1:12Speaker 5: How much you can take and kick moving forward.
- 1:20Speaker 3: Every failed experiment is one step closer to success.
- 1:24Speaker 2: You've got to take risks.
- 1:27Speaker 3: I found that nothing in life is worthwhile unless you
- 1:32Speaker 3: take risks. You will fail at some point in your life.
- 1:36Speaker 6: Accepted, you will lose, you.
- 1:38Speaker 3: Will embarrass yourself, you will suck at something. But do
- 1:45Speaker 3: you have the guts to fail? If you don't fail,
- 1:51Speaker 3: you're not even trying. Sometimes it's the best way to
- 1:58Speaker 3: figure out where you're going. If I'm going to fall,
- 2:03Speaker 3: I don't want to fall back on anything except my faith.
- 2:08Speaker 2: I want to fall forward. I figure at least this
- 2:11Speaker 2: way i'll see what I'm going to hit.
- 2:14Speaker 3: There is no passion to be found playing small and
- 2:19Speaker 3: settling for a life that's less than the one you're.
- 2:22Speaker 1: Capable of living.
- 2:29Speaker 5: There's a certain delusional quality that all successful people have
- 2:36Speaker 5: to have. You have to believe that something different than
- 2:40Speaker 5: what has happened for the last fifty million years of history.
- 2:47Speaker 5: You have to believe that something different can happen.
- 2:52Speaker 7: The road to success is through commitment and through the
- 2:58Speaker 7: strength to ride through that commitment when it gets hard,
- 3:02Speaker 7: and it is going to get hard, and you're gonna
- 3:04Speaker 7: want to quit sometimes, but it'll be colored by who
- 3:08Speaker 7: you are and more who you want to be.
- 3:14Speaker 4: Since success is a very narrow line and very unlikely,
- 3:17Speaker 4: the probability that you're going to stumble on it randomly
- 3:20Speaker 4: is zero. And so there's a proposition here. In the
- 3:23Speaker 4: proposition is if you actually want something, you can have it.
- 3:34Speaker 7: Did you think I need to pack.
- 3:36Speaker 8: This in, Devin, I don't ever give up that.
- 3:40Speaker 2: I mean I'd have to be dead or completely incapacity.
- 3:47Speaker 6: Why do you care about somebody else's opinion. You told
- 3:50Speaker 6: me you're in charge of your own destiny, he said,
- 3:52Speaker 6: you're in competition with yourself. The day that you give
- 3:55Speaker 6: up on you is the day that you gave up
- 3:57Speaker 6: on your dream. So if you're in the business of
- 3:59Speaker 6: giving up on your dream, that I don't want to
- 4:00Speaker 6: be in the business of being your friend. I think
- 4:02Speaker 6: you're talented, So why don't you stay true to what
- 4:04Speaker 6: you believe that you can do?
- 4:06Speaker 2: And it was words like.
- 4:07Speaker 6: That that really made me get that skin, that thick
- 4:10Speaker 6: skin to deal with Hollywood and rejection. And when I
- 4:13Speaker 6: heard no a thousand times, it started to roll off
- 4:15Speaker 6: my back. When I got that one yes, I made
- 4:18Speaker 6: a decision to never hear no again. So it's those
- 4:20Speaker 6: stories that really would help that younger generation that's coming
- 4:23Speaker 6: up in that business to say, you know what, I'm
- 4:25Speaker 6: going to stay true to my dream because there is
- 4:26Speaker 6: a light at the end of the tunnel. And I'm
- 4:28Speaker 6: pure prime example of that life. I'm been in the
- 4:31Speaker 6: business nineteen twenty years. Man in that last five to
- 4:33Speaker 6: six has been successful.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Failure is wonderful. You want to hit home runs, you
- 4:41Speaker 2: better be willing to strike out a lot. You better
- 4:44Speaker 2: be willing to fall down alive. But what are you
- 4:47Speaker 2: doing when you fall down? You say, see, I told
- 4:49Speaker 2: you I was a failure? Or do you get up
- 4:51Speaker 2: and say, Wow, that didn't work.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Don't do that.
- 4:53Speaker 2: I'm always reminded of Thomas Edison, who was working on
- 4:55Speaker 2: inventing a storage battery, some way to store electricity. He
- 4:59Speaker 2: knew kind of what it was and so on, but
- 5:01Speaker 2: he just didn't know how to store it in any way.
- 5:03Speaker 2: And he had tried twenty five thousand different combinations. He
- 5:06Speaker 2: still didn't have a storage battery. And one of the
- 5:09Speaker 2: reporters asked him. He was like seventy seven years old,
- 5:12Speaker 2: and they said, to mister Edicon, how does it feel
- 5:14Speaker 2: someone as famous as you to have failed twenty five
- 5:17Speaker 2: thousand thousand.
- 5:18Speaker 3: Must be awful?
- 5:20Speaker 2: He said, I don't even know what you're talking about. Failure,
- 5:24Speaker 2: He said, today I know twenty five thousand ways not
- 5:28Speaker 2: to make a battery. Failure is only bad when you
- 5:32Speaker 2: equate it with your self worth, when you say, because
- 5:35Speaker 2: I fail at something, that makes me a failure as
- 5:38Speaker 2: a person. The healthiest place you can get to is
- 5:40Speaker 2: the place where you're willing to try anything. Healthy people
- 5:44Speaker 2: will try virtually anything, and they're not afraid. They don't
- 5:47Speaker 2: live by their customs, they don't live by their traditions
- 5:50Speaker 2: and the rules.
- 5:53Speaker 8: For me, failure is something that you should be afraid of.
- 5:58Speaker 8: It should be afraid of. But that's why you should
- 6:00Speaker 8: go out there and challenge yourself to fail, because if
- 6:03Speaker 8: you're not feeling that something, that means you've set your
- 6:05Speaker 8: goals to pass to succeed everything you do, which means
- 6:11Speaker 8: you're not setting your goals high enough. So for me, okay,
- 6:17Speaker 8: I'm gonna go out and break against but a rules
- 6:19Speaker 8: record for pull ups lofty goal, which is why I
- 6:23Speaker 8: failed it twice before I finally got it. I knew
- 6:26Speaker 8: going into everything I've ever done in my life maybe
- 6:29Speaker 8: still training three times before I got it. Everything I've
- 6:32Speaker 8: ever done in my life took me three times before
- 6:34Speaker 8: I got it. I knew that there was a huge
- 6:37Speaker 8: possibility of failure. But what I gain from failure is this.
- 6:42Speaker 8: When you see a movie, and you watch a movie
- 6:45Speaker 8: by a person that keeps failing and at the end
- 6:49Speaker 8: they succeed, how do you feel that you watch that movie?
- 6:52Speaker 5: Amazing?
- 6:53Speaker 8: Right, I become the movie. I want to feel how
- 6:59Speaker 8: I feel watching someone else in the movie. When I
- 7:02Speaker 8: watched Rocky get his ass kicked, and I watched all
- 7:04Speaker 8: these different things of failure, I was able to put
- 7:08Speaker 8: myself there and say, God, man, how much do you
- 7:09Speaker 8: feel now to that you finally got there. That's what
- 7:12Speaker 8: failure has done to me. I watched so many things
- 7:16Speaker 8: and watch someone succeed at the end of it. It's like, God,
- 7:19Speaker 8: I want to feel like that. But failure causes that
- 7:23Speaker 8: one feeling. Without that failure involves, you don't have that feeling.
- 7:31Speaker 8: If you just pass and you succeed and you're great,
- 7:34Speaker 8: that feeling, yeah, okay, I'm good. What takes you years months,
- 7:41Speaker 8: years to accomplish because you just can't get over the hump,
- 7:45Speaker 8: But you continue going back to the drawing board.
- 7:48Speaker 2: You're looking for those.
- 7:49Speaker 8: Few seconds after you finally figure out the equation, whatevery
- 7:54Speaker 8: the equation may be. To get you to finally pass,
- 7:57Speaker 8: to succeed. I live for that feeling, but I can't
- 8:01Speaker 8: get that feeling without going through I feel this equation,
- 8:07Speaker 8: I feel this, I feel this one, I feel this one. Oh,
- 8:11Speaker 8: I'm figuring it out. So you start to feel it
- 8:13Speaker 8: before you even pass, before you even get to the
- 8:17Speaker 8: success part, and then once you succeed, the feeling is unbelievable.
- 8:21Speaker 8: And you take that feeling of success through failure and
- 8:25Speaker 8: you put it in your cookie jar and you say,
- 8:28Speaker 8: I'll come back and.
- 8:28Speaker 9: Get you again.
- 8:29Speaker 8: I'm gonna need you again down the road in my
- 8:31Speaker 8: life to call on you.
- 8:40Speaker 9: You know, it's always a little bit frustrating to me
- 8:42Speaker 9: when people have a negative relationship with failure. Failure is
- 8:47Speaker 9: a massive part of being able to be successful. You
- 8:51Speaker 9: have to get comfortable with failure. You have to actually
- 8:54Speaker 9: seek failure. Failure is where all of the lessons are.
- 8:58Speaker 9: You know, when you go to the gym and you work,
- 9:00Speaker 9: you're actually seeking failure. You want to take your muscles
- 9:04Speaker 9: to the point where you get to failure because that's
- 9:06Speaker 9: where the adaptation is, that's where growth is.
- 9:10Speaker 5: Successful.
- 9:11Speaker 9: People fail a lot. They fail a whole lot more
- 9:15Speaker 9: than they succeed. But they extract the lessons from the failure,
- 9:19Speaker 9: and they use that the energy and they use the
- 9:22Speaker 9: wisdom to come around to the next phase of success.
- 9:28Speaker 9: You gotta take a shot. You have to live at
- 9:31Speaker 9: the edge of your capabilities. You gotta live where you're
- 9:35Speaker 9: almost certain you're gonna fail. That's the reason for practice.
- 9:39Speaker 9: Practice is controlled failure. You're getting to your limit, getting
- 9:43Speaker 9: to your limit, getting to your limit.
- 9:45Speaker 5: You can't lift that.
- 9:46Speaker 9: You can't do that until you get to the point
- 9:49Speaker 9: that all of a sudden your body makes the adjustment,
- 9:52Speaker 9: and then you.
- 9:52Speaker 1: Can do it. Now, if you know what you're worth,
- 9:57Speaker 1: to go out to get what's you're worth. But you
- 9:59Speaker 1: gotta be willing to take the hicks and not pointon's
- 10:01Speaker 1: fingers saying you ain't where you want to be because
- 10:03Speaker 1: of him or her or anybody. Cowards do that, and
- 10:07Speaker 1: that ain't you. You're better than that.
- 10:12Speaker 3: What are you going to do with what you have
