A short motivational monologue by Dean Graziosi urging listeners to take control of their lives and not let external influences (news, family, self-doubt) steer their decisions. Graziosi emphasizes grabbing the wheel of one’s life, rejecting limiting voices and sticking to chosen goals despite past failures or criticism.
Who is the captain of your ship? I could just say, who's steering your life? What outside influences are you allowing to shift the course that you want to be on? Just think about that. Do you watch the news and say, ah? I'm gonna play small man. Things are. Things are horrible out there. Do you talk to your sister, your mother, your spouse, your significant other and say, ah? Maybe I am just a dreamer. Do you listen to that voice because you failed once before. You procrastinated once before, even though that was part of the journey you were on. You listen to that voice and go, I'm an imposter. I really can't do this. Which voice? Which person? Which news outlet? What are you listening to? That changes the course you're on. That means you are allowing someone else to steer your ship to guide your life. The only way this works. The only way this works is if you grab a hold of the wheel and say, this is the course I'm on. This is where I'm going. And don't let anybody have you deviate from that goal.
