As Derek Jeter said,
there may be people who have more talent than you
but there's no excuse
for anyone to work harder than you do.
It's not easy, but through practice and
practice and practice
practice makes what?
absolutely not dismantle that belief system
practice makes improvement.
Fear is self-imposed
meaning it doesn't exist.
You create it and you can destroy it too.
It's an intangible.
If you face your fears, guys,
you realize it's not that big.
I want your dream to be so clear
so vivid, right?
that when you wake up in the morning
all you got to do is step in you dream
If you're not where you are,
If you're not where you want to be,
if you don't have what you want to have,
if you're not where you think you should be
at this particular place,
it has nothing to do with the system,
but it has everything to do with the fact
that you're not making the sacrifice.
Everybody’s got lions on their profiles
Everybody talks positive about themselves
Everybody talks like you’re a beast
You dress like you’re a beast
But then when it’s time to do what a beast do,
you back up
You gotta get up and make it happen
I CAN
I WILL
I MUST
Pick a new destination and start going that way
Now you can change one little degree at a time,
or if you want to,
you can revolutionize the whole thing.
I want to encourage
somebody out there.
who's thinking about quitting and giving up,
You're thinking about quitting,
you're thinking about giving up,
You are folding.
You are caving in.
This is for you.
you're in this storm, and you're down on your knees
and you're cold, and you're weak,
and you feel like this is the end.
imagine if you will, being on your deathbed,
"and standing around your bed,
"the ghost of the dreams,
"the ideas,
"the abilities,
"the talents given to you by life and that you,
"for whatever reason, you never went after that dream,
"you never acted on those ideas,
"you never used those talents,
"you never used those gifts.
"And there they are standing around your bed,
"looking at you with large, angry eyes, saying,
"We came to you,
"and only you could have given us life, and now
"we must die with you forever."
Don't give up.
Don't give up!
Stay in it.
As John Irving said to do anything really well.
You have to overextend yourself.
And that's the key.
If you want to put in an extraordinary performance, if you want to
absolutely dazzle people, then you have to do something amazing.
You got this, it's going to get hard sometimes I'm telling you right now,
it's not going to be easy, but it's worth it.
That's not going to happen as quickly as you want it to happen, it's your dream.
If you want to have it, get your butt up and make it happen.
So if what inspires you is that somebody works hard, work hard.
If what inspires you?
Is it somebody who gets up every time they faill to get up?
Every time you fail, if what you like is that they're themselves with all
their weird eccentricities and quirks than being true to your eccentricities
and quirks, but don't try to embody their eccentricities and quirks.
That's the surest way to become the fish that thinks it's stupid because it's
being judged by trying to climb tree.
If we wanted to have it.
Rise and grind.
I dare you not to go back to sleep, I dare you to get up and
I dare you to chase your dream.
It's possible, you can win.
Maybe you're listening to me right now.
You want to lose weight or you, you try to pass the final exam,
or maybe there's just defeat.
That seem as though it is impossible turn your plan into progress,
turn your plan into progress.
I need you to be uncomfortable with average.
I need you to be allergic to average.
I need you to come to the end of yourself,
whatever comes to you, don't run from it.don't try to
duck it like most people do.
Step toward it.
You want to make the dream come through?
You got to stay focused.
Some people rather get even then get ahead, stay focused
on where you want to go.
Where you are going with your life
Because then the lesson that I'm going to learn is going to apply.
It's going to take me another step closer to actually being the
person that I want to become that I want to live with everyday.
I can't do that, I don't understand who I want to be.
Now, let me give you the secret
Shoaff said, here's the secret Mr. Rohn
learn to work harder on
yourself than you do on your job.
Once I got that, it turned my life around.
Learn to work harder on yourself
than you do on your job.
he said, if you work hard on
your job, you'll make a living.
If you work hard on yourself,
you can make a fortune.
Wow.
If you have known me at age 25.
You would have said
Jim Rohn's a hard worker.
If you'd have known me, you'd have said that
I'm the guy
I don't mind coming a little bit
early, staying a little bit late.
I don't mind that you'd have said,
well, Jim, Rohn's a hard worker.
You say, well, how come he's got
pennies in his pocket and nothing in
the bank and behind on his promises?
Well, I was a hard worker, but
I was working hard on my job.
Not on myself
and start this whole process
of personal development.
Work on yourself, make yourself
more valuable to the marketplace.
I'm telling you, you can
so dynamically change your income and
economics is the least of the values that
you can start earning in terms of equity.
If you'll start working harder on
yourself than you do on your job,
work hard on yourself and develop the graces.
All of the stuff necessary to become
more valuable to the marketplace.
I'm telling you your whole life
can explode into change
promotions?
No problem.
Becoming more valuable to the company.
I'm telling you no problem
money?
no problem
economics, no problem.
Future?
No problem.
If you just go to work on the right
thing, Not get things out there to change.
Don't try to change the seed.
Don't change the soil.
Don't change the sunshine.
Don't change the rain.
Don't change the mix of seasons.
Let the miracle of
everything that's available
work for you and start
working on the inside.
Work on your philosophy, work
on your attitude, work on your
personality, work on your language,
work on the gift of communication,
work on all of your abilities.
And if you'll start making those
personal changes, I'm telling you
everything will change for you.
