you have the power to create meaning in your life rather than passively look for it make this moment the moment of truth about yourself you are leaving a legacy whether you want to or not everybody in this room is going to leave a legacy the question is are you going to be intentional about the legacy you're leaving i do not care what other people think of me for having goals and dreams for myself for some reason everybody don't want to follow through everybody talk a good game but i need you to follow through and no
disrespect but that's why i need you to get your your motives have to be pure and some of you you have like big dreams but your energy is like a aaa battery your battery got to be able to push that dream if you got a big old dream but you got a small engine you're not going to be able to push it if you want to be an anomaly you have to act like one like people want all these special things to happen but then they're acting like everybody else so for me i create the
meaning and meaning to me is do i know more about the world today than i did yesterday that enhances meaning for me there is definitely a direct connection between finding your passion and reaching your potential you can't give anyone ownership of what is going to happen with you a question opens the mind a statement closes the mind see when you say i can't afford it your mind shuts down and you become what you say my lack of interest in complaining is so high and when i watch what people complain about it breaks my heart because
they completely lack perspective we gain a greater perspective when we zoom out and too many of you are guilty of becoming what you are going through you are not what you are going through now is your time now is the moment to capture the vision i challenge you today don't wait to be second or third going to be the first here it is you're trying to accomplish something here it is you're trying to do something and yet there's some fear right because you've never seen anybody do it before you're not sure if you're gonna make
it go ahead and accept the pressure of being the first you'll be faced with difficult situations there'll be times that you don't believe in your ability to persevere there'll be times you feel incapable of rising to meet the challenges that face you you'll be tempted to turn your back and run but running is never the best option when you're in the middle of a struggle the only way out is through the people with vision have the ability to see what other people cannot see you're either going to a storm right are you hearing me you're
on your way to a storm you are actually in a storm or you coming out it's a part of life so i don't care if you you're a star athlete i don't care if you're a billionaire i don't care if you're a ceo i don't care who you are you can go to the moon we all have problems what i'm trying to tell you is this though don't be consumed with them problems are a part of life but guess what they're not light i want you to focus on your dreams rather than running away from
obstacles or trying to figure out some kind of way around them go right through them brace yourself steady your nerves put your head down and tackle whatever you face head on i need you to build these are your building years this is not your bitter years these are your building gears your building legacy yeah yeah you're building something for your children you're building something for your children's children you're building something for your your wife that's on the way you're building something for your husband that's on the way you're building something not just for your first
name but your last name you're building something that's why god puts you in the earth he didn't put you in the earth just to exist he puts you in the earth to build something he puts you in the earth to break something he puts you in the earth to demolish something he puts you in the earth to make sure that you produce something and something that would last the fears you face along the way they'll make you better our biggest fears always carry with them the greatest opportunity for personal growth our fears and how we
face them brings out the best in us if something doesn't scare us if something doesn't challenge us it doesn't change us i need you to see what the next 10 years looks like i i need you to see what the next five years looks like i need you to see yourself winning i know that is difficult right now but but your vision said you're gonna win i know there's a storm that's coming and raging and warring against you but you gotta have a vision that keeps you in the fight even when it feels like you're
about to quit the storm may jar you a bit but i promise that you won't buckle and you won't break it's as long as you got peace on the inside all hell can be breaking loose on the outside and you can speak out what you hold in the worst storm in the world is not the one on the outside but when it gets on the inside you cannot speak what you do not have dare to face your fears dare to take risks dare to be better believe in your ability to weather the storm i'ma give
you four rules that if you can obey if you can make these rules a command i believe not only will the pain subside but perhaps transformation could take place on the inside rule number one there are no more zero days what is a zero day a zero day is when you don't do a single solitary thing towards whatever your dream or goal is in this life [Music] so i want you to make a conscious decision that there will be no more zero days i'm not saying you got to kill yourself but the point i'm trying
to make is that you need to promise yourself that your new program your new system will be a life lived of no more zero days this means that when the day is over and you look up miss 11 58 at night you did something no more zero days and i don't care if it was one push-up one sitter one page of the book you feel me but just make a decision that there will be no more zero days you see when you're in the vortex of being bummed and you are trapped in the pattern of
self-sabotaging behavior you get used to it and the only way you are going to break out is with a massive string of consistent non-zero days as rule number one rule number two that you are going to have to be grateful to the three yous calling mumbo jumbo if you want to news flash the 3us are the past you the present you and the future you and if you want to love somebody and have someone love you back you got to learn to love yourself and the three yous are key you got to be grateful for
the past you for the positive things you've done and do favors for the future you like you would for your best friend you feeling bad today stop for a second and think of a good decision you made yesterday that salad that fish that protein shake instead of a burger or fries did you save money in your past to buy something that resonated with you and think to pass you are you currently saving toward that dream or that goal you have or that improbable feat then you need to be grateful for the present you the last
part of the three use is you gotta love your future self you gotta do your future self a favor i know you might be tired you may be addicted to a video game or a television series not today present self this one's for future me no playstation no xbox no distraction i don't care if it's one more push-up but one more sit-up or one more page in the book you see the cycle of doing something for someone else future you and thanking someone for the good in your life past you is the key to building
gratitude and productivity don't tell me over time you should spread that gratitude to others who have helped you on your path rule number three you are gonna have to forgive your self i mean it maybe you have all the know how the money the ability strength and talent to do whatever you want to do but let's say you still don't do it now you're going to give yourself a tough time for not doing what you need to do pick your head up being disappointed in yourself causes you to be less productive if you can forgive
yourself you can be healed from the past equipped for the present and cast vision for the future you owe you forgive you and get on with the rest of your life rule number four is the easiest and it's three words exercise and books that's it pretty standard advice but when you exercise daily you actually get smarter you get crystal clear about the road ahead when you exercise you position yourself to win the war when you exercise and you push yourself you attest the limitations of your soul and you'll become crystal clear both internally and externally
that all you have is all you need as for books almost everything we've ever thought or failed or gone through or wanted or wanted to know how to do has been figured out by someone else so get some books read seven habits of highly successful people read emotional intelligence read from good to great read thinking fast and slow read books that will help you understand read books that will get you crystal clear on your future read the body weight fitness reddit and incorporate it into your workouts reading gets you to the next level faster one
last piece of advice though if you wake up tomorrow and you can't remember the four rules i just laid it out for you read this again watch this video again don't forget non-zero days as much as you can the three use gratitude and favor forgiveness exercise and books this is how you can dominate and get an unfair competitive advantage in the marketplace and in the game of life and this is the road to self-improvement physically emotionally mentally you got this man some of you are holding on to some real good memories that are no longer
current memories and you need to let them go so that you can get what's next [Music] so we're gonna do we're gonna get the right information and then we're gonna get narrow focused and boom we're gonna go for it are you hearing what i'm saying that's it many of you will not be successful because you've got this giant goal and no steps to go with it you're just in your mind like girl this is my year how many steps i don't know like what is it going to take for you to do it i don't
know i just know this is my year can i be real with you if you can't measure it ain't real [Music] keep your dreams phenomenal keep your vision phenomenal keep it phenomenal and now i need you to get your weight up as an individual i need you to get your schedule up i need you to get your life up i need to get your words up i need you to get your heart up i need to get your action up i need you to get to a place that every single thing that you do is
phenomenal so that the life you want to live you can actually live that life you lay hold of it and when that thing tells you to quit you look at it in his eye and say i ain't going nowhere i will break you before you break me you will not defeat me you will not destroy me some of you are so ignorant you've been through so much hell you gonna quit now why me god why did i get ms why did i get cancer why did my mama die why did i get fired do you
understand listen you got through that you got put through that because what that does that tension produces greatness stop running from it and run to it stop telling me what you're going through the greats they get to it they go through it and the harder it is the better we gonna put in work because every time you put in work you get the same consequences you get paid you get rewarded and when you out there dealing with the real world it ain't pretty you got to have hearts get some hearts the only time you got
right now is to believe your job is simple all you got to do is believe believe it could happen anyway [Music] but most importantly believe it can happen for you i know you believe it can happen but you have trouble believing it could happen for you i believe that time is now you got one job to believe and convince you just believe because once you believe whoa it's easy to block out the noise it's easy to block out the haters once you believe it's easy to block out the ignorance what you believe is easy to
block out the liars once you believe it's easy to block out the lies inside your own mind you were made for time such as this you were made to achieve today you were made to make the impossible possible i mean the right brothers are human thomas edison human michael jordan oprah she's human i'm talking to you right now listen to me you are human which means it is possible but you got to go do it now no more time to waste no more time to prep you got to do it now you got to do
it brave you got to do it scared you got to do it gently you got to do it loud i don't care just do it whatever you must do go and do it because the impossible is possible today the world is waiting to talk about you the world is waiting to brag about you the world is waiting to follow you on social media the world is ready for you to be an influencer the world is ready to hear your voice the world is waiting on you success is waiting for you winning is waiting for you
achievements is waiting for you because you are a winner you are focused you are determined you are a fighter say it to me i win i achieve it is possible i win i achieve it is possible no turning back no quitting this time no hesitation no procrastination the impossible is now possible because you got your mind made up you got your mind focused in life you have to sometimes do the impossible to get what is possible in life you have to stand up for what you believe in in life you have to work so hard
in order to achieve what is possible because here's why ain't nobody giving it away nobody's going to do it for you got to take this journey and you got to take it for yourself and you got to take it by yourself so listen to me don't let yourself off the hook that setback you got an excuse but don't take it that justification you got an excuse but don't use it you got you out but you can't use your out because if you use you're out you ain't gonna do the impossible possible it's going to become
your reality what is impossible is possible the easiest thing i've done was to get out from under the labels and to live the life that i live the most difficult thing i've ever done was to believe that i can do it [Music] it's the moment you realize everything in your life has come to a point where you can either stay where you are or you can pick up your bags build the courage to move that inch to move that inch in order to build even just the slightest bit of momentum life is a series of
fights i mean think about it you're either in a fight just got out of a fight but trust me there's a fight right around the corner just waiting for you life is going to beat up on you in so many ways and many things they come back you know negative thoughts and and how you feel about yourself they don't die they come back once you stop doing the maintenance work on your mind one inch is all it takes it's the time in your life where it's do or die what are you gonna do it's the
time when you're feeling like you're scraping the bottom of the barrel you're in the dark but it's up to you to change your perception to shed some light on where you are listening to motivational messages going to seminars and workshops spending time quietly listening to the still small voice within who am i really is this really me am i giving my best am i just reflecting what's around me because all of these various things affect how we show up in life when i think about fighting i'm not talking about people i'm talking about situations i'm
talking about circumstances i'm talking about opportunities that sometimes you have to fight for right now wherever you are as you are today you have enough right now to build the legacy that you really want it's the time when you're ready to give up but you know if you do you'll never be able to live with yourself with the guilt and shame of not pulling yourself out of this state which way are you going to turn things may happen to you and things will happen around you but the most important things the things that happen in
you and you have to stand up inside yourself and deal with it and handle it now is the time to start building your legacy now is the moment to start making your impact you got to get into position baby so i know life is hard sometimes i know life can be up and down but right now i need you to get in position to fight what's your position to fight what's your mindset to fight what's your mentality when you about to fight you get ready to fight you know a fight's coming your adrenaline begins to
pump your heart begins to race your mind gets right and say look i'm not gonna just fight i'm gonna win this battle and suck are you going down and i'm not talking about people i'm talking about circumstances i'm talking about situations and i'm talking about opportunities so here's the first thing we got to figure out first you have to acknowledge who you fight and i'm not talking about people i'm talking about you the number one person you gonna fight is yourself so are you fighting procrastination are you fighting excuses are you fighting low self-esteem ladies
and gentlemen get your dukes up get your hands up and get ready to fight see let me tell you something trouble can be a bully but you better learn how to land the first blow lesson number one acknowledge the fight who are you fighting who is your battle with key number two what is your strategy to win are you going for the knockout blow are you gonna kill him softly with a couple of jabs you might be in a situation right now where the doctor said to you that you're not healthy your body's family you
might even have cancer oh that's not just a battle that's going to be a war ladies and gentlemen but to win fights you got to have stamina you got to be ready to fight and bounce back punch and counter punch jab and jab back let me tell you something life is a series of fights the worst thing you can do is run away from your fights because if life is a series of fights and you run away you just ran away from your life your promotion is in the fight your promotion and your next level
is about you get into this war get into this battle with winning here's the reality i don't believe in getting bullied i believe in altercations and so let me tell you something it's trouble coming your way a fight's coming your way you running from your fight you just ran from your life and you just ran from your future i've been fighting my whole life and let me tell you something we're gonna battle baby and i want you to do the same thing because when you get victory you'll raise your arms up like the champ when
you come over depression you raise your arms like a champ when you overcome bankruptcy you raise your arms like a champ will you come up with divorce raise your arms and victory i love muhammad ali because he did it with charisma i float like a butterfly sting like a bee rumble man rumble let me tell you something you got to be ready to fight because your life is all about fights here's reality life can be messy but you gotta clean it up and you better learn how to fight well here it is a wake-up call
a reality check a time to realize that it just got real and there's nothing at this point in time right now you can do about it except figure out a way how to get through it yeah many people right now are angry and complaining and scared and don't know what to do yes there's something happening right now in our world in our society [Music] and many people right now just don't know what to do but remember there was a time you went about your day without a care in the world you just did what you
had to do you moved the way you wanted to move you did what you wanted to do but now things have changed things just got real but you have to ask yourself what's next what do i do now what's my next move am i going to just complain or am i going to just realize that i got to learn to adapt and overcome [Music] like animals in the world birds lions tigers all different species of life that are not human but yet they understand the significance of what it means to survive regardless of what they're
going through they still figure out how to survive how to live how to move how to push but you as a human being you'll just sit around and complain and worry not knowing exactly what it is to do next living is all you can do keeping faith being strong overcoming adversity and realizing that yeah not gonna always be a good day but it's definitely a great day it's a great day for me to learn about what i am capable of what am i willing to do how am i gonna push forward instead of pushing back
what's my next decision what's my next path what direction am i going because what's surrounding me doesn't necessarily mean that it's breaking me to a point where i can't function you have to have the ability to understand that if you don't build up something it'll never have true foundation it will never have balance it will never understand purpose there won't be any purpose to it because you're too busy being what you think you ought to be instead of knowing what you need to be this is a reality check this is the time to find out
what you can do how you can get above it how you could go beyond it how you can look up to the sky instead of looking down at the dirt this is that opportunity ladies and gentlemen don't be afraid now be strong don't be weak be powerful don't worry about the things you cannot control make the most of what you have and from the bottom of my heart conduct your business [Music] start your day off with a grateful heart and let that be the spark of light that pulls you from the dark mark bryan said
gratitude is the most powerful emotion you will ever feel and thank you are the most powerful words you will ever say see when you display a grateful spirit the universe will hear it the heavens above will cheer it and the demons below will fear it so please let's all practice gratitude on a daily basis and never forget to say thank you for the life the good lord gave us it may not be rainbows and sunshine all the time but i guarantee if you take a moment to reflect you will definitely find a reason to be
thankful for your heart and a reason to show gratitude for your mind or better yet what about that time when you almost did you know what but out of nowhere you got a sign and you got out of that situation just in the nick of time so that means you should say thank you for your intuition and you yes you should say thank you to the person that paid your tuition because you prayed for it and it came to fruition and you should say thank you for your two good ears because you have the ability
to listen and you heard those snakes hissing and you knew it was time to abort that mission say thank you for your heart that knows how to mend when it's broken show gratitude for your composure that helps you control your emotions say thank you for your inner strength that help you overcome drinking and smoking show gratitude for your will that never allows whining and moping say thank you for your optimism that keeps you wishing and hoping show gratitude for your sense of humor that keeps you laughing smiling and joking the same sense of humor that

thank you for your failure setbacks and pitfalls because they help you revise your plan and pointed out a lot of your flaws which is the exact reason for your present-day success so please be grateful for the obedience you had to not be stubborn and figure out the message in your mess if you're able to walk be thankful because many are not so blessed if you were able to study retain and pass with an a be grateful because many others failed the exact same test say thank you for the courage you had to remove all your
toxic friends show gratitude for all of your losses that eventually led to all of your wins say thank you for the love and affection you're able to give be grateful for the gift of life and the ability to give it your all because you only have one life to live say thank you for your sense of smell because mama's cooking always smells so good show gratitude for the determination you had to overcome and make it out to hood because many were not so blessed say thank you for your worst days because they help you truly
