T. Harv Eker argues that 90% of people aren't living the lives they want, held back by fear disguised as excuses about time, money, or age. He pushes you to remember what you dreamed about as a kid and start pursuing it now instead of settling for mediocrity.
Hi, my name is T. Harve Eker and I am the author of the New York Times number one best selling book, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind. And over the last 20 years, one of the biggest notices that I've had with people is that how they want their life to be and how it actually is is very, very, very far apart. They don't have the money they want, they don't have the relationships they want. They aren't as healthy and fit as they would like to be, Their business or career is certainly not booming. They don't feel overly fulfilled, and worst of all, they might actually feel all that good about themselves. So let me ask you this. Are you living the life you truly want to be living? If not, you're not alone. 90% of the people out there are not living the life they really, really, really want to live. You see, when we were kids, most of us believed that, hey, we could do anything, right? So what happened? Well, you basically grow up, you get realistic, right? And all of a sudden those dreams seem more like distant memories or childhood fantasies. Whatever it is, most people have actually lost their passion and allowed their lives to become a mere shadow of the intentions they once had for themselves. They've settled for the dreaded word mediocrity. The main reason that most of us lose our dreams is not because our desire has just gone away, but because of fear. How can I make a change? I don't have the money, I don't have the time. It's too late. However, as I'm known for saying, in life, we either have reasons or we have results. Bottom line, you have a choice to make. Are you going to give up on your dream life? And are you going to follow into that trap of mediocrity? Or, or, or are you going to go for it and live your ultimate life? Whatever that means for you? My friends, I don't think I have to remind you that life is short. We only get a relatively few precious moments here and then we're gone. So this is the time. This is the time to rekindle those dreams that once filled you up with hope, with excitement and with energy. This is the time to start living up to your potential and live the ultimate life and become the ultimate you that you've always wanted to be.
