  Speaker 1: I less just tell you is to be strong no
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: matter what you're going through. Whatever you want to do
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: in life, find something that you don't mind doing for
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: the rest.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Of your life.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Find something that you like, and even if it seems
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: like it's impossible, it's very, very possible. So don't get nervous.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: If you have a big goal, just chip away at
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: it until you get to evening to be.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: Most of us that come from just normal backgrounds, we
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: don't see ourselves doing abnormal things. The world is full
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: of people who were born on third and think they
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: hit a triple and they've got all this confidence, all
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: this stuff. For most of us, it's not that way.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: We don't think we're wired or programmed to do something great. Well,
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you that thought is nothing but a fear,
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: nothing but a doubt. It's what holds you in place.
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: So as we begin to look toward the.
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: Future and look at what will it take for us
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: to break through those fears. One acknowledging the fear, knowing
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: it's all right. Some fear is healthy. Beginning to know
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: that your dreams, your passions, your drive to achieve whatever
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: it is you want as it has more power and
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: meaning it will move you past your fears as you
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: begin to feel that you deserve it. Your passion and
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: goal is so strong, the fears won't matter.
• 1:36
  Speaker 6: You've been given the dignity of choice. You don't have
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: to repeat this year the same as last year. You
• 1:42
  Speaker 6: can tear up last year's plan develop a new plan.
• 1:46
  Speaker 6: Now here's the choice on being a human being, to
• 1:48
  Speaker 6: be part of all we were meant to be, or
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: to be all, to strive for all or half or some.
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: The choice is up to you to develop one skill
• 1:57
  Speaker 6: or ten skills. And this is all a matter of choice.
• 2:00
  Speaker 6: Someone says, no, you ought to learn for it. You've
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: got to resist all that because this is personal dignity
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: and you don't want to destroy some's dignity by doing
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: all the odds. And they feel we're like to do it.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: Now we've got problem.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: You gotta work hard on understanding you have within you
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: the power to change, the power to do something great.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: And those fears are gonna crop up, particularly in the
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: middle of the night when you wake up and you
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: scared to death about what to do. They're gonna crop up,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: and they're gonna hold you in place. Quite often if
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: you're trying something different. They crop up in the middle
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: of your dreams when you're asleep at night. Those fears
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: and doubts creep in. Understand they're not real. They are
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: things in your head that have been programmed into you
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: by your past life. Wrestle with those fears. You'll never
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: conquer them, but control them and go out and live
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: the life you deserve. Choose to win, control your thinking,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: and go win big.
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: I'll never forget, mister Washington, said, mister Brown, Yes, sir,
• 3:20

  Speaker 4: He said. People that are hungry.
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: Are willing to do the things today others won't do
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: in order to have the thanks tomorrow others won't have.

• 3:53
  Speaker 4: here's what to do. He said, I want you to read.
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: Ten to fifteen pages of something positive every day. He said,
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: you don't get it. What you want, you get in life,
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: what you are. You must program yourself to success. He said,
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: I want you to listen to Earl Nightingale and zig Ziggler.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Listen.
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: Faith comes by hearing, and hearing and hearing. He said,
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: I want you to change your relationships and I don't
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: want you to ever lose your hunger.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: I said, what do you mean by that?
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: He said, people that are hungry unstoppable, people that are hungry,
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: and no matter what people they make, it happen, no
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: matter what.
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: He said, I want you to listen to Paul Harvey.
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: Who is he He's the world's greatest communicator. Success leaves clues,
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: young man. Always listen and follow people who are doing
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: what it is you want to do at the level
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: you want to do it, and learn from them. I
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: told t Hobbin' standing by the stage and said, hey man,
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: I want to work more with you. I want you
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: to coach me. I want to learn from you. See,
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: I found you never too old to learn, and you're
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: never too young to teach.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: Always have a thirst for learning.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: So I listened to Paul Harvey every day on the
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: radio while in school. I would go out and listen
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: in his car. He gave me his keys. I was
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: working to develop myself and I continue to listen to
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: motivational messages. And he would take me to see the
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: late nor doctor Norman Vincent Peale, who wrote the book
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: The Power of Positive Thinking.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: I toured with him before he passed.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: You you have something special, You have greatness within you.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: Don't allow your circumstances to determine who you are. Don't
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: allow your negative thoughts to hold you back. You you
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: have something special. You can do more than you can
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: ever began to imagine. Doctor Peel was an incredible man.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: I admire it. When he spoke, he gave me gustopause.
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: I can feel him in my heart and I never
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: forget who were coming back to the school, and mister
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: Washington said, mister Brown, Yes, sir.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: When doctor Peel spoke, you didn't move.
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: And he spoke, you were hanging him on everywhere. Even
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: when he spoke. We didn't have to tell you to
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: sit down and be quiet. Why, he said, sir, I
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: could I could feel him and he talked. I felt
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: like he was talking to me, Sir. He said he was.
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: I said, but he doesn't know me, but he was
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: speaking to you. Did you feel him in your heart?
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: I said yes, sir. He said, most people feel him
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: in their head. If you felt him in your heart,
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: he said, listen to him, sir, follow him, learn from him.
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: And I would go to some when I was in.
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: Workshops, anywhere I would find where doctor Peel was, I
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: would be in the audience. I'll drive two and three
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: hundred miles just to hear him speak.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: And my dream and.
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: Vision was was to share the stage with him.
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: I thought about it. What is your goal? What is
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: your vision? I want you to hold it in mind.
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: It's some power in that, because when I became involved
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: in speaking, I never forget. I got a call from
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: aug Mandino, who wrote the book The Greatest Salesman in
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: the World. He said, last stuck.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: In Philadelphia, I need to be in kank of Key doctor.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: Norman Vincent Fille's appearing. I can't make it. Heard you
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: in Chicago. I said, yes, I am. Can you go
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: and open for me? I said, yes, man, oh my god,
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: doctor Pheel. I said yes, I'd love to do it,
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: and I went there and I came.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: I said, hi, I'm I'm Less Brown.
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: He said, you're not the bandy now and I said, no,
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: I'm I'm missus, Mamie Brown's baby boy.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: I'm here to speak.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: He said, come backstage, and his wife Martha was there
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: and she said, Papa Les Brown is here the speaker.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: And he said, Les Brown, Less Brown shoot for the moon,
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: because even if you miss your land among the stars.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: I said, sir, that's my quote. I wrote you when
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: I was.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: In the eleventh grade.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: I was a part of a special special education class project.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: That's my quote. He said, I know.
• 8:01
  Speaker 7: I in all my speeches with that quote.
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: Now, let me give you three steps to personal development.
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: Let's get down to the nitty gritty. What does it
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: take to really make the changes starting tomorrow. It takes
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: more than philosophical pronouncement. I know that it also takes
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: more than enthusiasm. I know we're hearing a lot about
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: enthusiasm these days, but see that just won't do the job.
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: We're still here on the old cliches of the thirties.
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: Right to be enthusiastic, you must act enthusiastic. But see
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: that's not gonna help. After you have leaped about. There
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: are some things you got to do or it isn't
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: gonna change. See, you can get all excited about lifting
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: two hundred pounds until you get to the gym, and
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: then you need a new excitement. And the new excitement
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: is called discipline. Major step to human progress. Discipline. If
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: there's one thing to get excited over, that's it. Get
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: excited over your ability to make yourself do the necessary things.
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: What could you make yourself do starting tomorrow that would
• 9:06
  Speaker 6: change it all? No tell now, See that's exciting. On
• 9:12
  Speaker 6: any given day, you can massively change the direction of
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: your life. Murder is a clear example that any one person,
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: on any given day can forever alter the course of
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: their life. It just happens to be a negative act.
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: But just as sure as you can commit a negative act,
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: you can also commit a positive act and forever alter
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: your life whenever you wish. Now that's exciting, and whatever
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: that act might be, the changes your life. The guy
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: finally takes a shotgun to his car and blows out
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: every window, destroys every tire, puts one hundred rounds in
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: this shabby old thing, and he says, I have driven
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: this embarrassing thing for the last time, and not only
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: will I never drive it again, nobody else will ever
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: drive it again. And he lets that shuddering thing stand
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: there for a while as a monument to the day
• 9:59
  Speaker 6: he said, today my life changes. Now who can do that? Anybody?
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: When can you do it?
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: Whatever day you pick?
• 10:05
  Speaker 6: Now, here's the key to discipline. Start with the little disciplines.
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: Get excited over the little disciplines, and get right on those,
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: because those will lead to the big ones. You can't
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: handle the big challenges in life unless you take on
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: the little ones. Make a list of all the things
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: you can do, get right on those. Discipline yourself for those,
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: both for the results and for the muscle and for
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: the practice. So when life hands you some big challenges,
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: you'll be ready. You'll have the muscle.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: But see, if you.
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: Don't handle the small ones, you can't take care of
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: the big ones. Okay, here's what else it takes for life.
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: Change self motivation. Key phrase self motivation. I don't know
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: why we call it self motivation. It's really the only
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: kind there is. You got to motivate yourself. Because I
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: found out you can't change people. They can change themselves,
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: but you can't change them. Lord knows some I've tried,
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: but see it won't work. People have to change themselves.
• 10:55
  Speaker 6: I learned some of those lessons early. I built a
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: little sales organization way back in those early days. I'm
• 10:59
  Speaker 6: twenty five and I had some nice people. I said,
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna make these people successful. If it kills me,
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: I almost died.
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: I mean, you can't do that. What is my outcome
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: in this situation?
• 11:12
  Speaker 8: Yes, it's about disciplining your emotions, you know, something as
• 11:17
  Speaker 8: simple as food and eating.
• 11:20
  Speaker 9: It's not about your body as much as it is
• 11:24
  Speaker 9: about your mind. It's getting command of your mind to
• 11:28
  Speaker 9: be able to choose actions that are in your own
• 11:31
  Speaker 9: best interest.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: Look, ain't no more talking. This is it? Have you
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: ready to take your game to the next level?
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: And whatever it is, sports, life, business, whatever it is health,
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: Listen to me very closely.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: You gotta change that mindset.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Motivate doesn't mean to yell and scream and encourage, you know.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: To motivate actually means to provide a motive, a reason why.
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: Because you can come up with a question what should
• 12:00
  Speaker 7: I do, You're gonna end up with a long list.
• 12:03
  Speaker 8: Self love is Hey, look, I know you got a
• 12:07
  Speaker 8: test on Monday.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: You know, and I know you really want to go
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: out with your friends this Saturday night.
• 12:13
  Speaker 9: You want to go out but if you fail that test,
• 12:15
  Speaker 9: you're not gonna feel good about yourself.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 12:18
  Speaker 8: I just I love you too much to let you
• 12:21
  Speaker 8: go out tonight.
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: And so I realized, like, yo, e you sleep it,
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: you play video game, don't lie to yourself.
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: You are powerful, but you have some vices. So I
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: started saying, Okay, you got to discipline it. So and
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: that's for me, This ain't for everybody.
• 12:36
  Speaker 8: You have to watch, You have to watch every single
• 12:41
  Speaker 8: second the path to strength and health and intelligence and happiness.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: But we get caught up in our pattern.
• 12:50
  Speaker 7: So we want to get really sensitized, acutely sensitized, sensory
• 12:54
  Speaker 7: acuity to whether what we're doing is working or not.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: You don't have time, that's a lie. Fault and responsibility
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: do not go together. It sucks, but they don't.
• 13:05
  Speaker 9: When something is somebody's fault, we want them to suffer.
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: We want them punished, we want them to pay, We
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: want it.
• 13:13
  Speaker 9: To be their responsibility to fix it.
• 13:15
  Speaker 8: But that's not how it works, especially when it's your heart.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: Once you put.
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: Away your phones and your computers and all that you
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: have nowadays.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: Yes's great, we're up to date, you know.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: But your brain is the only thing you have when
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: you're going through depression.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: So cast out the lies, earn them down. I can't slive,
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: I'm negative.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: Going go back again. I can't swive.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Go back again, Go back again, go back again.
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: I got it.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: An incessant fight that doesn't stop.
• 13:52
  Speaker 8: Against weakness, and against temptation and against laziness.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: It's a campaign of discipline.
