Two speakers deliver a motivational dialogue about obsessive commitment to greatness. They argue you can't stay comfortable while pursuing ambitious goals, and that most people consciously choose mediocrity over activating their innate gifts. Stay busy, follow a plan, and seize opportunities when they come.
If you want to be the best, if you want to reach the pinnacle, you must be— there's no way around it— you have to be obsessed with obtaining that greatness in any field. Greatness cannot be achieved without obsession. You will not quit. You will keep going. You may lose, but you will not stop. You will not quit. You will keep going. Everybody wants to be a beast until it's time to do what beasts do.
If you don't believe in yourself, it won't happen for you.
You can't just say you want it. You can't watch the video and say, I want it as bad as I want to breathe.
It's cute to say it, but when it's showtime, When the sun comes up, sometimes your life will be in a slump. I suggest to you that if you are facing a challenge, don't stop. Stay busy.
Work your plan.
Continue to do those things that you know that work for you. After you have evaluated yourself in the situation, continue to move. Stay busy, stay busy, stay busy.
When the sun comes up, you've got all the books, you've got all the tapes, you've got all the access. Now it's time to hunt. And what separates you from everybody else is that When it's time to hunt, you ready to hunt. You want to travel the world, I don't know, you want to build your second home, I'm not sure what you want, but I need you to understand you can't stay where you are and go where you trying to go. And that's the problem. Many of you, you love your comfort zone too much. You love it. You love security too much. And I'm telling you, you can stay where you are, you can, but you can't stay where you are and try to go where you going.
It's necessary to know that everybody won't see it, that everybody won't join you, that everybody won't have the It's necessary to know that, that a lot of people like to complain, but they don't want to do anything about their situation. That you are an uncommon breed. You know, you have to know within yourself that I can do this, even if no one else sees it for me. I must see it for myself. That's necessary. It's also, ladies and gentlemen, necessary that you be creative when you're working on your ideas, that you understand the importance of changing up, of readjusting strategies. Many times we can have a great idea, but if you're not advancing it in the right way and things don't happen, you become discouraged and think the idea doesn't work.
No, that's not true. You can't activate life. You can't begin to experience life in the way you want to experience. You can't have it. You can't be it. You can't do it until you activate it. And yes, it's all in there. All your gifts, all your talents, all your everything you need to do to be what you've been called to do, what you've been birthed to do. You can't do until you activate it, until Recognize you matter. Everything about you is great, but the problem is you have consciously chosen to be average. Yeah, yeah.
I was literally kicked off a Southwest flight before for being disrespectful.
