They got all these dreams dancing in their head. "I wanna do this, I wanna do this,
I wanna do..." guess what? Dreams wanna live just like everybody else
and if you don't bring them to life, somebody else will.
They're gonna jump from your head right into somebody else's head
and that person is gonna bring those dreams to life.
And you're gonna be sitting there back thinking, "man, I could've, I should've, I would've."
Everybody's got a dark side. Whether you wanna admit it or not.
Everybody's got one. It's the individuals
that can tap that dark side, that know how to use it,
that know how to control it. And everyone talks about
dark side as it being bad. It's not about being bad,
it's about something that's unique to you. It's what fuels you.
It's what's, your desires, it's your ego, it's your fucking greed,
it makes you separate, it's what lights your fire.
Instead of having somebody else your fire, the dark side keeps your fire lit.
It's something that's unique to that individual, to you,
that pushes you, that nobody understands, only you understand it.
And you see it a lot of times in athletes when it gets outta control,
it's athletes, business, politicians, all that other stuff, it can destroy you,
but the individuals that can control it, harness it, acknowledge it, know how to use it,
it takes them to a completely different level. Masks, you know I love to talk about
masks and so forth. In your office, one of
your individuals he's got a Batman thing up there. They got a Batman and a Superman.
So, we talk about this, you look at an individual, you look at Clark Kent, you look at Bruce Wayne,
you look at Batman and you look at Superman. Which is the real alter-ego?
Is it Bruce Wayne? Or is it Batman?
Everyone says Batman and Superman is the alter-ego.
No, it's not. That's who they really are. When they take the mask off,
they become somebody else. They become somebody else.
That's who they really are. Batman is who he really is.
Superman is who he really is. You get individuals that are so intense at work.
What happens when they come home? You cannot be that intense at home.
So what do you do?
You got to need a little time to unwind. You got to sit down.
You become your alter-ego when you go home, you are who you are when you're at work.
There's things that you do here, in your office, from a business standpoint,
you would never do in the house. You would never do in the house.
You wouldn't want your kids to see it. But are you really that person or
are you the person you're at work? You're that person you are you're at work.
People have gotten too soft these days. They've gotten too soft.
"Man you're always so angry!" No, I'm not angry! You haven't seen me angry.
This has got nothing to do with anger. I'm just telling you the truth.
That's what I'm telling you. There's too much, people...
there's too much hugging and too much high fives and all that shit
going on when you haven't earned it. You go to these seminars, you go, "hey,
turn around! Give the person next to you a pat on the back,
give them a high five, give them a hug," where I come from, you gotta earn your
fucking high fives. You gotta earn your
accolades. You gotta earn your hug. This isn't about participation trophies.
You don't get rewarded for participating. You don't get rewarded for participating in life.
"I got passion and I've got inner-drive." You've got a person that, you come into
your office, have you ever given anybody a raise because their results sucked but they
got great passion and inner-drive? No. Passion and inner-drive
has to be followed by an action. You have to have an action that follows it.
And that's the hardest part. People don't wanna have that action.
Everyone talks about, man they got all these dreams dancing in their head.
"I wanna do this, I wanna do this, I wanna do..." guess what?
Dreams wanna live just like everybody else and if you don't bring them to life,
somebody else will. They're gonna jump from your head
right into somebody else's head and that person is gonna
bring those dreams to life. And you're gonna be sitting there back thinking,
"man, I could've, I should've, I would've." You had your chance.
You got to deliver. You got to have action. You got to deliver.
