I hate
Plan B
because we have so many doubters we have
so many of those people that say no and
you can't do it it's impossible but when
you start doubting yourself that's very
dangerous because now what you're
basically saying is is that if my plan
doesn't work I have a fallback plan have
a plan B if that means that you start
thinking about Plan B and every thought
that you put into Plan B you're taking
away now that thought and that energy
from plan a and it's very important to
understand that we function better if
there is no safety net because Plan B
becomes a safety net it says that if I
fail then fr and I get picked up and I
have something else there that moves it
will protect me and that's not good
because people perform better when
there's no safety net people perform
better in sports and everything else if
you don't have a plan B
I'm telling you I've never ever had a
plane beat I say I made a full
commitment that I'm gonna go be a
bodybuilding champion I made a full
commitment that I'm gonna be in America
I made a full commitment that I'm gonna
get into show business
and I'm going to be a leading man no
matter what it takes I will do the work
I would do the work over and over and
over and delegate it it assembles in
politics and everything like that so to
me it is very dangerous to have a plan B
because you're cutting yourself off from
the chance of really succeeding and the
reason one of the main reasons why
people want to have a plan B is because
they are worried about failing
what is if I fail then I don't have
anything else
well let me tell you something don't be
afraid of failing because there's
nothing wrong with failing you have to
fail in order to climb that ladder
there's no one that doesn't fail my
trick shorten said in one of his
interviews when they said you are
unbelievably the greatest basketball
player of all times I mean tell me about
that and he says well you're just
mentioned of successes but this is for
me to become the greatest basketball
player
I missed nine thousand shots when I was
playing basketball the NBA games so
during this games that he was so
successful he missed nine thousand shots
does it make him a failure No
is one of the greatest basketball
players of all times but he failed 9,000
times to get it we all fail what is not
the case that when you fail you stay
down whoever stays down is a loser and
winners who fail and get up fail and get
up fail and get up you always get up
that is a winner that is a winner I
[Music]
failed in bodybuilding effort I lost
bodybuilding competitions
I lost powerlifting competitions and
lost weightlifting competitions I had
movies that went in the toilet and that
worked terrible you got the worst
reviews we all lose we all have lost us
this is ok and this is why I say don't
be worried about losing because when
you're afraid of losing then you get
frozen you you get stiff you're not
relaxed you got to be in order to
perform well in anything if it's in
boxing or if it is on your job or what
you're thinking is only happening when
you relax so relax it's okay to fail
let's just go all out and give it
everything that you got that's what it
is all about so don't be afraid to fail
