what is it that gives your life a sense
of meaning and purpose because once you
find that it puts you in your power
place see if you know what your life
work is I encourage you to start working
on it if you can’t do it all at one time
do just a little bit of it and if you
don’t know what it is that you showed up
to do if you don’t know why you’re here
I encourage you to find out what your
purpose is here what is the meaning of
your life what will be different have
you ever asked yourself that question
I’ve done that I remember coming from a
friends of my funeral and I was
reflecting on how much time I had left
and I went for a walk in a park thinking
about this guy whose life was so
promising and I mean he wasn’t an old
guy was quite young in fact and I
thought about all of the things that he
said he was going to do and he never got
a chance to do those things and I start
thinking about my own life and how much
time I had left to do the things that I
would like to do and at that time I
wasn’t sure what my life purpose was
what my life’s work was I wasn’t sure
about it at that time and I thought
about it quite a lot I had some idea but
I wasn’t convinced that I don’t think I
felt worthy I didn’t believe that it
could be me to do this kind of work that
I’m doing right now
and I say to you that if you begin to
take a conscious effort to find out what
it is that you’re supposed to do
I say that it can literally save your
life I said that it can literally save
your life 85% of the American public
according to recent studies of going to
jobs that they hate working on jobs that
do not challenge them they get sick
thinking about going because see when
you go to a job and you already know how
far you can go you can already see that
proverbial glass ceiling see when you’re
going someplace and you already know how
much you’re going to make you already
know how far you can go you’re in a dead
end position it erodes your self-esteem
it lowers your sense of yourself
it creates an inner turmoil
it creates an emptiness in you so I say
that your life is worth finding what it
is that you’re supposed to do and I’m
not saying quit your job I’m saying find
it and do just a little bit of just not
working at it just a little bit but do
find out what your work is and hold on
to it and don’t let your dream go don’t
let it go see and here’s something else
I want you to begin to look at why is it
that most people don’t pursue their
dream so don’t do better than what
they’re doing if they’re capable of
doing it I think that many of us don’t
go the next step because we don’t know
what to do yet and I say that that the
reason that we don’t even explore the
possibility of what to do is because
subconsciously we don’t believe that it
can happen for us and we don’t believe
that we deserve it so here’s what I’m
suggesting how much time do you spend
working on you how much time do you
spend every day working on your dream in
the last 90 days how many books have you
and the last year what new skill or
knowledge have you acquired what kind of
investment have you made in you so I’m
saying that as you begin to look at
where you want to go if you want to make
it today and things are changing so fast
you have to literally run to standstill
I’m saying that you’ve got to make some
conscious effort to begin to work to
develop you here’s something else most
people are not living their dreams
because of fear ladies and gentlemen
fear limited vision and lack of self
esteem is what keep most people doing
things they don’t want to do the same
reason that people stay in relationships
where the abused are they’re unhappy
where it’s unfulfilled they can’t see
themselves beyond that relationship they
can’t see themselves enjoying life
without that person they think that this
is all that they can do the same reason
that people get stuck at a certain level
in life they can’t see things being
better for them and they think that this
is it and this is all they deserve this
is all they’ve ever seen has been passed
on to them and they think that this is
it for them
oh no looking what dr. Blanton Smalley
Blanton who is a colleague of dr. norman
vincent peale what he said about
theories that fear is the most subtle
and destructive of all human diseases
ladies and gentlemen fear kills dreams
fear kills hope fear put people in the
hospital fear can age you fear ladies
and gentlemen can hold you back from
doing something that you know within
yourself that you are capable of doing
but it will paralyze you and it seem
like you’re in a hypnotic spell and I
ask you a question what is the benefit
what’s the benefit of allowing fear to
hold you back what’s the benefit of
giving up on yourself of not stepping
out on life and taking life on what is
the
benefit for you what’s the plus in that
it’s one of the things I had to ask
myself so I didn’t want to make any
mistakes
I wanted everybody to like me I wanted
to be perfect the first time I did
something it’s not going to happen
you’re going to make some mistakes
you’re going to hurt some folks feelings
you’re going to create some enemies
whenever you decide that you want to
begin to take life on you’ve got to ask
yourself how long am I going to allow
this to hold me back I like what Zig
Ziglar says he said fear is false
evidence appearing real that is an
illusion that we create in our mind it
is a state of mind that can be changed
so let’s look at how we can begin to
take some steps to restructure that fear
to begin to expand our visions of
ourselves to begin to increase our
self-esteem Webster said that
self-esteem means competence and
satisfaction in oneself look at your
life right now whatever you’ve done up
to this point in time your life is
working whatever you have produced it
came out of you as a result of the kind
of person that you have become as a
result of your choices it’s a result of
your consciousness now you have to ask
yourself are you satisfied with what you
hit produce is this what you want would
you like for things to be better than
this do you believe that you deserve
better than this are you content this is
it you don’t have to do anything else
but you already resign yourself in life
so well I’m happy I’m not starving like
the people in Calcutta
are you allowing yourself to get off the
hook like that or do you believe
somewhere in the back of your mind or in
your heart but there’s some other great
work for you to do there’s something
else that light has for you and that’s
why you’re here how do we handle this
fear factor how do we increase our
self-esteem you have to begin to fortify
yourself how do we do that I believe
that you have to begin to consciously
monitor your inner conversation and
start talking to yourself start building
yourself up sometimes the only good
things you will hear about you other
things that you say to you so I’m saying
learn to be your own booster start
building yourself up start encouraging
yourself start saying I can do this I
can make this happen when I started
thinking about becoming a speaker I said
yes I can do this I can make this happen
when I start trying to convince myself I
can be a businessman after flopping and
failing and losing thousands of dollars
and feeling stupid and dumb and having
people take advantage of me because of
what I didn’t know I had to talk to
myself because people saying to me that
I was dumb and somewhere in the back of
my mind I was saying you’re right look
at what I’ve done I had to say no no no
no no no no less hey hey come on man get
yourself together you can handle this
you just haven’t figured it out yet it’s
all right this is your training period
this is the tuition you have to pay but
what you don’t know you can do this
other people have done it doesn’t take
an Einstein get you some people that can
teach you some stuff that you don’t know
get you some people that have done it
successfully and learn from them take
some seminars workshop read some books
on how to manage a business change the
way you see yourself and begin to attend
to the personal details understand that
nobody’s going to take care of your
business better than you
and when I start changing that kind of
mindset of beating myself up because of
my mistakes and start looking at the
possibility of my doing better of my
making the adjustment that would enable
me to do what I want to do successfully
things begin to change
now they stop beating up on yourself you
do do it I know you do it I’ve done it
it’s a natural inclination for us to put
ourselves down see we are born negative
I think in a negative consciousness
because we live in a negative world here
are some other things ladies and
gentlemen begin to guard your mind
against negative programming like turn
off the television don’t watch the news
so you’ve got to guard the kinds of
things that you put in your mind see if
you don’t program your mind your mind
will be programmed because human beings
are goal-oriented that’s why we die of
broken hearts early that’s why we’re
running through life too early grades
we’re going through life ladies and
gentlemen and I think that Henry David
Thoreau stated that most men live in
quiet desperation most of us go through
life running scared so we created this
in our minds false evidence appearing
real
we made it real in our minds that’s why
Churchill said there’s nothing to fear
but fear itself
that’s the destructive monster so turn
off things that can contribute to your
fear
turn a deaf ear to people that all they
can do is talk about how negative things
are because they have bought into the
consciousness of the world start
attending workshops seminars listening
to tapes on a daily basis to begin to
recondition your mind to retrain your
thinking faith comes by what hearing and
hearing and hearing listen to things
that can empower you that can enable you
to create a new reality for yourself in
a new life for yourself you might appear
to be strange around most people you
know most people think you’re strange if
you’re happy today see these people have
not found their purpose in life that’s
why they are grumpy but that’s why
they’re miserable that’s why they’re so
negative they’re hurting and they want
to hurt other people so start practicing
using programs for your mind seminars
books workshops keep a journal record
your thoughts what’s happening with you
every day when you get up have a journal
near you see ladies and gentlemen we get
three to four thoughts a year that if we
would act on those thoughts they could
change our lives what idea are you
setting on write your ideas down and
then once you get that idea take the
lead take the lead since I’ll be of the
universe if you don’t take the plunge I
guarantee you somebody else will take
the plunge go into action and ladies and
gentlemen you will be surprised how
things will come together you’ll be
surprised now you’re going to have some
difficult challenges I can tell you that
now be aware of that things are not
going to work out exactly right for time
they will sometimes and that’s when life
is just playing the game with you want
you to feel good and relaxed but ladies
and gentlemen go into action with your
dream and don’t avoid where the fights
are get in the midst of the fight get
knocked down so you can learn how to
fight so you can hold your position see
most people don’t get out in the arena
of life because they don’t want to
most people don’t get out there because
they don’t want to get knocked down they
don’t want to be dropped to their knees
but see you’re going to be dropped
worthy you on the field or whether or
not you’re sitting on the sidelines
you’re going to be dropped so at least
get dropped with something see that’s
not most people of spectators in life
you don’t want to be a spectator you
want to get out in the field where the
action is and you will be amazed after
the struggle there will be a calm period
and things will begin to click for you [Music]
