Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: I just have a value system that says it's not
- 0:03Speaker 1: about the money, it's about building something you believe in.
- 0:06Speaker 1: It's about serving other people, and it's about work ethic.
- 0:08Speaker 1: It's about showing up and working.
- 0:11Speaker 2: The only thing that stops you from getting what you
- 0:14Speaker 2: want in life is the bullsh story you tell yourself.
- 0:20Speaker 3: Don't be a follower, be a student. Take advice, but
- 0:23Speaker 3: not orders. Take information, but don't let somebody order your life.
- 0:28Speaker 3: Make sure what you do is the product of your
- 0:30Speaker 3: own conclusion. Not to do what someone else says. Take
- 0:35Speaker 3: what someone else says. Process it, think about it, Ponder it.
- 0:39Speaker 3: If it makes you wonder, If it makes you think,
- 0:41Speaker 3: then it's valuable. Then when you go take action, make
- 0:45Speaker 3: sure that the action is not what somebody told you
- 0:47Speaker 3: to do. Make sure the action is the product of
- 0:48Speaker 3: your own conclusion. You'll follow just a little bit of
- 0:53Speaker 3: those simple guidelines telling you the learning process can be speedy, swift, powerful,
- 1:00Speaker 3: your learning curve can go up, and then applying it
- 1:02Speaker 3: to your business, your life, your family, conversations, equities of
- 1:06Speaker 3: all kinds, you'll find some progress. Like I did that
- 1:08Speaker 3: first five years when I met a teacher willing to
- 1:11Speaker 3: share with me. Turn my life around progress. I couldn't
- 1:15Speaker 3: believe happened for me.
- 1:18Speaker 1: There's a gap between who people are and what they
- 1:21Speaker 1: tell you they want to accomplish. Now, the process of
- 1:25Speaker 1: taking myself from scrounging in my couch cushions to find
- 1:28Speaker 1: enough change to put gas in my car to building
- 1:32Speaker 1: a billion dollar business was all about building a set
- 1:36Speaker 1: of beliefs. Now, I believe that the Matrix has us all.
- 1:42Speaker 1: I don't actually think we live in a simulation, but
- 1:44Speaker 1: I think the movie The Matrix is the perfect metaphor
- 1:47Speaker 1: for the human experience. We have all pulled a web
- 1:49Speaker 1: of lies over our own eyes, and the web of
- 1:52Speaker 1: lies is what you tell yourself about what's possible for
- 1:55Speaker 1: you and for the world.
- 1:57Speaker 4: And once you get.
- 1:59Speaker 1: That web of lies over your eyes, you simply see
- 2:01Speaker 1: it as reality. And you don't understand that each one
- 2:04Speaker 1: of those fundamental beliefs is alterable, that you could choose
- 2:07Speaker 1: to believe something else. In fact, you don't even realize
- 2:10Speaker 1: that they are beliefs. Einstein has a quote. It's one
- 2:16Speaker 1: of the most important quotes in my life. The most
- 2:21Speaker 1: important question any man must decide for himself is whether
- 2:27Speaker 1: or not he lives in a friendly or hostile universe. Now,
- 2:34Speaker 1: what I love about that quote, So what's hiding in
- 2:35Speaker 1: it is that it's a decision. You get to choose
- 2:40Speaker 1: whether you're living in a friendly or a hostile universe.
- 2:43Speaker 1: There's no objective reality. It just is what it is.
- 2:47Speaker 1: You're gonna get what you see. You're gonna get what
- 2:50Speaker 1: you focus on, and you see what you focus on.
- 2:56Speaker 3: You could much more easily survive the next crisis, the
- 2:59Speaker 3: next winter of your life.
- 3:01Speaker 4: If you have well set goals.
- 3:05Speaker 3: Finally tune places you want to go, things you want
- 3:07Speaker 3: to do, people you want to meet, skills you want
- 3:11Speaker 3: to develop, fortune you want to make, benevolence you want.
- 3:14Speaker 5: To engage in.
- 3:15Speaker 3: If all of that becomes powerful and clear and you're
- 3:18Speaker 3: on your way, I promise you, no matter what happens,
- 3:23Speaker 3: those goals will pull you through. You won't be lost
- 3:27Speaker 3: in the middle because you'll be able to see beyond.
- 3:33Speaker 5: But I believe, ladies and gentlemen, if we can accept
- 3:36Speaker 5: the possibility of that this is the decade of consciousness.
- 3:42Speaker 5: That's what I believe, that this is the decade of consciousness.
- 3:45Speaker 5: If you please a time where we can begin to
- 3:49Speaker 5: create in folks minds, the idea, the possibility that we
- 3:54Speaker 5: can create a more humane society, the possibility that we
- 3:57Speaker 5: can create more love, communication, and understand in relationships, The
- 4:01Speaker 5: possibility that we can create a drug free America, the
- 4:05Speaker 5: possibility that we can create the kind of respect for
- 4:08Speaker 5: diversity and difference in our multicultural society. The possibility that
- 4:12Speaker 5: we can begin to develop the mindset to bring out
- 4:15Speaker 5: the best in people, to encourage them to achieve their
- 4:17Speaker 5: greatness and support them.
- 4:19Speaker 4: In their dreams.
- 4:20Speaker 5: That if we can, in this decade of consciousness, to
- 4:24Speaker 5: begin to see it in vision that happening, and that
- 4:27Speaker 5: we all can play a role.
- 4:29Speaker 4: That we were born for such a time.
- 4:30Speaker 5: As this, that we showed up for this, that we
- 4:32Speaker 5: survived one out of nine million sperms, that we have
- 4:35Speaker 5: been chosen.
- 4:36Speaker 4: For this great work. What an exciting time to be alive.
- 4:48Speaker 5: Here's something else to recognize wherever you are on the
- 4:51Speaker 5: ladder of life.
- 4:52Speaker 4: And I was reading in.
- 4:53Speaker 5: Doctor Norman bensent Peel's latest book called The Power of
- 4:57Speaker 5: Positive Living, which I think is his greatest, and he
- 5:00Speaker 5: has something in there.
- 5:01Speaker 4: A section called comeback twer.
- 5:05Speaker 5: Wherever you are in life, ladies and gentlemen, you've got comeback, talent.
- 5:10Speaker 4: I don't care how low you are. I don't care
- 5:12Speaker 4: what you have done. I don't care what you have experienced.
- 5:15Speaker 5: I don't care how devastated your life might appear to be,
- 5:18Speaker 5: the shambles it might be.
- 5:20Speaker 4: In there's a power even you that can enable.
- 5:24Speaker 5: You to be stronger and better than anything that's out here.
- 5:28Speaker 5: One man who came for the training, he was not
- 5:30Speaker 5: a kid, and I knew he had a drinking problem.
- 5:32Speaker 5: And he was looking at me and I can spell
- 5:34Speaker 5: alcohol on him. I said, excuse me, come here, come here,
- 5:37Speaker 5: Come here.
- 5:37Speaker 4: He said, what is it? I said, let me tell
- 5:39Speaker 4: you something. I want you to know.
- 5:40Speaker 5: You've got something in you that's stronger than that poison
- 5:43Speaker 5: you're putting in your body.
- 5:45Speaker 4: Do you understand me? And he was looking at his
- 5:47Speaker 4: back and up he said. He said, uh, I don't know.
- 5:52Speaker 4: He said, I don't know. I said, it is. I said,
- 5:56Speaker 4: that's why you here. Something due you here, that which
- 6:00Speaker 4: caused you to come.
- 6:01Speaker 5: You set you want some help, and you need to
- 6:03Speaker 5: be around some people that can help you get in
- 6:06Speaker 5: touch with your power, because you know that your life
- 6:09Speaker 5: deserves this.
- 6:11Speaker 4: See.
- 6:11Speaker 2: I think that the reason that we abused ourselves with
- 6:14Speaker 2: drugs and alcohol, is that we're trying to numb something
- 6:18Speaker 2: in us that's aching us, that's urging us, that's nagging
- 6:22Speaker 2: us to do something bigger and better.
- 6:25Speaker 4: It can't be because it tastes so good.
- 6:28Speaker 5: It can't because crack feels so good.
- 6:30Speaker 4: A cocaine is not that simple that when we.
- 6:34Speaker 5: Are deluting ourselves or polluting our minds, it numbs us
- 6:38Speaker 5: where we don't have to face reality because we don't
- 6:43Speaker 5: know what we've got going for us.
- 6:44Speaker 4: Say, once you discover.
- 6:46Speaker 5: Who you are, the truth of knowing who you are
- 6:49Speaker 5: will set you free from ever wanting alcohol, from ever
- 6:53Speaker 5: wanting any kind.
- 6:53Speaker 4: Of drug that's going to destroy who you are.
- 6:57Speaker 5: Once you begin to know who you are, it will
- 7:00Speaker 5: step you free from believing I can't see myself doing
- 7:03Speaker 5: any better. Once you discover this power of this the
- 7:07Speaker 5: perfect essence of who you are that's in all of us,
- 7:10Speaker 5: that's permeating out be that enables us to be the
- 7:13Speaker 5: directors of.
- 7:14Speaker 4: Our lives, that you truly can.
- 7:17Speaker 5: Live a healthy, happy, prosperous life, and that you can
- 7:20Speaker 5: make it in what are called the worst of times.
- 7:24Speaker 4: I think it was Robert Julie said, tough times never last,
- 7:27Speaker 4: but tough people.
- 7:28Speaker 6: Do, and you are tough, and so goals are really
- 7:33Speaker 6: empty to me. I have a thing on goal setting,
- 7:35Speaker 6: But like, my big thing is that you show me
- 7:37Speaker 6: someone with compelling, emotional, gigantic reasons. I'll show you someone
- 7:40Speaker 6: who's changing their standards all day long. So like, give
- 7:43Speaker 6: you one quick version that you've not heard before. One
- 7:45Speaker 6: of the reasons I'm relatively fit is not just peak state.
- 7:50Speaker 6: I have an uncle and my family that died at
- 7:52Speaker 6: fifty years old of a heart attacks. My godfather, my
- 7:54Speaker 6: dad's only brother. I kind of resembled it and I
- 7:57Speaker 6: look like them a lot. So on the way back
- 8:00Speaker 6: from his funeral, my reticular activators on heart attacks. On
- 8:03Speaker 6: the TV screen on the airplane, I'm listening to music
- 8:06Speaker 6: is the Oprah Winfrey Show. She's going through a new
- 8:07Speaker 6: heart scan. I've unplugged my headphones, plug it into the
- 8:11Speaker 6: airplane one for some of this new scan at cedar
- 8:13Speaker 6: sign I had that at that time was new. It
- 8:15Speaker 6: could read the plaques in your arteries, the calcifications without going,
- 8:18Speaker 6: you know, really evasively. I scheduled it.
- 8:21Speaker 4: I went in.
- 8:22Speaker 6: I had a world class doctor who understood reasons and
- 8:24Speaker 6: leverage instead of just prescribing. When we coach, boy, you
- 8:26Speaker 6: need to do this, you need to do this that.
- 8:28Speaker 4: Doctors do it.
- 8:28Speaker 6: Take this pill, take this. He understood leverage and reasons.
- 8:32Speaker 6: What you do is you take the scan, then you
- 8:33Speaker 6: go to lunch, you come back. I took the scan,
- 8:35Speaker 6: I went to I had a burrito. I came back
- 8:38Speaker 6: and I'm in the law. When I walk in, I
- 8:40Speaker 6: sit down. The doctor comes up and he says, oh my,
- 8:46Speaker 6: I can't believe these arteries are in That young body
- 8:50Speaker 6: got my attention. We walk back in, We sit down.
- 8:53Speaker 6: He could still go, you need crestore, eat clean, get
- 8:55Speaker 6: out of here. Is that what an average doctor does?
- 8:57Speaker 6: Right now? Wired me with huge reasons. He goes, let
- 9:00Speaker 6: me ask you a question. I heard your wife's pregnant.
- 9:02Speaker 6: I said, I have a son. And he says, do
- 9:04Speaker 6: you want to be there when he graduates from high school?
- 9:06Speaker 3: To be there for that day?
- 9:07Speaker 4: I said, yes, sir.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 9:09Speaker 6: He goes, your wife's pregnant.
- 9:10Speaker 3: What do you have?
- 9:11Speaker 6: And I said, a daughter? Is where you get a dad?
- 9:12Speaker 6: He goes, but she was six months pregnant. He goes,
- 9:15Speaker 6: do you would you like to walk her down? The
- 9:17Speaker 6: isle on her wedding day, or are you okay that
- 9:18Speaker 6: it's some other man? I went, what the wasung the
- 9:21Speaker 6: skin right, and he goes. I want to be very
- 9:23Speaker 6: clear with you, if you keep going down the road
- 9:25Speaker 6: you're going there'll be some other man with your son
- 9:27Speaker 6: at graduation in high school and a stranger's walking your
- 9:30Speaker 6: daughter down the OUs it's not even born yet on
- 9:32Speaker 6: her wedding day and I went to boom and he goes.
- 9:34Speaker 6: But if you do exactly what I tell you to do,
- 9:37Speaker 6: you'll be there. And so to this day, brother, there
- 9:40Speaker 6: are mornings when I wake up, not every morning.
- 9:42Speaker 4: I don't want to go to the gym.
- 9:42Speaker 6: I go Bella's wedding, Belle's wedding, belle Is wedding. So
- 9:46Speaker 6: my standards are high because of my big old reasons.
- 9:49Speaker 6: Other dudes may miss the gym that day because they're
- 9:51Speaker 6: not going to miss their daughter's wedding if they don't go.
- 9:53Speaker 6: But I've convinced myself on or what they're going to emotional.
- 9:56Speaker 6: I've convinced myself phone missed my daughter's wedding. So I
- 9:59Speaker 6: will get my out to bed at four o'clock in
- 10:01Speaker 6: the morning, and I would get to that gym because
- 10:02Speaker 6: my reasons are bigger, so my standards are higher. So
- 10:06Speaker 6: that's what I think causes us to have great standards
- 10:08Speaker 6: as huge reasons
