• 0:00
  Speaker 1: All right, Steve, here we are last break of the
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: day and it's time for your closing remarks. Yeah. I
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: just want to encourage everybody. Look, I know that life
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: gets tough sometimes it really does for all of us.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: A poem I learned a long time ago entitled don't quit.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: They don't have they they don't know. The author of
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the poem has always been entitled author unknown. Certainly I
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: didn't write it, but it's a poem called don't Quit.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: It just reminded me so much of something I think.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: I'll say it, but I wanted to tell you what
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: made me think about it. Somebody sent me a quote
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: from Winston Churchhill today. Somebody sent me this one today,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: And what the quote is is that success can system
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm. Let
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: me say that to you, kid. Success consists of going
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm. I thought
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: about this and I said, wow, you know what, that's
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: really how you become successful. You just go from failure
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: to failure and just never lose your enthusiasm. Somebody said, Steve,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: that's hard, and I said, yeah, it is hard. I
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: wish I could tell you that being successful wasn't hard.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: But it's hard. It really really is. There is no
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: easy way to become successful. It's hard. Now. I can
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: tell you some ways. You can short circuit it, you
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: can mess it up for yourself. I can tell you
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of those. But to get successful, you've got
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: to be extremely determined. You've got to be pretty much
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: hell ben on making it happen. But I tell you, man,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: what can get you there? Well, I tell you what
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: causes you to get there. You got to have the
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: right motivation. The best motivation to be successful is to
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: have massive dreams. And I'm talking about massive dreams. You've
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: got to have huge dreams. That's the best way to
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: get there. Because what it is, and what happened to
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: me along the way, was my dreams were so big
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: that not seeing them to come to fruition was unacceptable.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: I just couldn't see myself not at least given my
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: all to see if it could happen or if that
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: couldn't happen. Man, could I just get a portion of
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: that to happen? So what happened was I made my
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: dream so so big man, that along the way, when
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: mishaps and setbacks and trials and troubles and hardships and
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: death and remorse and guilt and everything was facing me.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I never lost my enthusiasm for wanting to make it,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: because I just wanted so desperately for one of these
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: dreams to come true. So I really do understand when
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: he said success consists of going from failure to failure
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: without loss of enthusiasm. And it's the size of the
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: dream that keeps you from having to lose your enthusiasm.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Because I just kept thinking. Man like, my father used
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: to always tell me, aim for the moon, so in
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: case you miss, you'll still be amongst the stars. And
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: it led me to something that's more telling that said
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: more frequently more or recently. I learned one that came
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: to me when it was time to talk about giving up,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: and said, the problem ain't that you aim too high
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and you miss it. The problem is if you aim
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: too low and you hit it. Let your mind go
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: think of big things, Open up your heart and your
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: mind to the possibilities of God. Stop living your life
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: in probability, and start living your life in possibilities. I'll
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: tell you what I mean by that. When people look
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: at something and they base it around the probability of
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: it happening. That's a problem because what you're saying, then
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: is the probability of something is to me, that just
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: means it probably won't happen if this happens, or you
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: probably won't make it if that happens, or it probably
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: won't come true if you don't line up this way,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: or you know, you probably might not make it. If
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: these people don't sign on to it, you probably won't
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: make it. If that, that to me is living in
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the probability. You know's what's the factors that blend into
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: the probability of something occurring. But if you just change
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: that and you went from the probability to purely the possibility. See,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: I only look at life in terms of the possibility.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: I have people who work for me, who do probability
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: factoring for me all the time. Some of the advice
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I end up taking from them, the majority of us
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: don't because I don't care who works for me. They
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: can't out dream me, and they don't have an idea
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: of my vision for me better than I do or
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: God does. So I stopped living my life in terms
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: of probability, and I started living my life in terms
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: of possibility. I only care about the possibility. The probability
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: will present itself along the way, but you just got
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: to stay focused on the possibility. Faith don't make it easy.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Faith makes it possible. And that's guided me the whole time.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Get your dreams up, y'all, make them big man. Let
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: God into your life. Man, he can do some damage
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: with you. He can do a lot of damage for you.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: I mean that in a good way. Y'all have a
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: great weekend. Woah, drop it. It's dropped. For all Steve
