hello how are you this is less problem
is a baby browse baby boy how would you
like this page and I want you to share
it and let everybody know that I’m about
to share something with you one of the
things that I love about this technology
it allows you to to reach out to people
every day if one so desires and I’ve
been thinking about some things that
really really have been on my mind and
heart that I’d like to share with you
and one of the the reasons that I want
to do that
I was speaking the other day and I said
to some friends live life like you’re
gonna die why last because one day you
are and say not going through it in a
mindset of gloom and doom but in a
mindset that I want to get some things
done while I’m here and I want to take
anything with me to my grave ever friend
when he died all I could think about
when I was in the funeral home was the
conversations that he had with me
when he said one day I’m gonna one day
I’m gonna have a restaurant one day I’m
going to travel to Africa one day I’m
going to go to Dubai he was telling me
all of these things about one day I’m
gonna and I’m gonna didn’t come he
didn’t expect to be involved in a car
accident that he did not survive and so
one of the things that that I want to
talk to you about is about having a
mindset of doing the things that you
want to do and being positive and
optimistic about that in spite of in
spite of the fact that you don’t have
the money in spite of the fact that you
don’t have the resources and in spite of
the fact that you might be down on your
luck right now and in spite of the fact
that you might be growing through an
illness I’ve gone through that
there are a lot of in spite of that we
want to take a stand against and not
allow those thing to rob us of the
things that we deserve deserve in life
and so I want you to like this page and
I want you to share it you want you to
like it and share it and also like to
get some comments from you but here’s
one of the things that that I can share
with you I’ve been thinking about I had
a conversation with a close friend today
sometimes we have invisible contracts
with people what do you mean by that
class I had to make a decision recently
and my Angela said if it looks like a
duck if it walks like a duck it quacks
like a duck it’s a duck and sometimes we
have to look at our relationships and
ask the question what is this
relationship doing to me I believe that
they’re there they’re two types of
relationships they’re nourishing
relationships those are relationships
that you grow from those are
relationships that hold you accountable
those are the relationships that bring
the best out of you I’m in a
relationship right now with a gentleman
by the name of Peter Anthony I
understand the term aren’t sharpening
iron because in this short time that
we’ve been together he’s had such an
impact on my life
mentally and emotionally and spiritually
but also on my mind I’m finishing my
book and and and I realized how much we
have in common there’s something I want
you to think about I want you to write
this down it’s better to be alone than
wish you were Frankie Crocker out of New
York he was a famous disc jockey there
he used to say that it’s better to be
alone than the wish you were it’s better
to be alone than to be with someone who
does not bring the best out of me as
someone that you’re dying together as
opposed to living together someone that
compromises your
mindset studies indicate 26 years study
that was that was mandated by but an
organization to just to find out why is
it that people are obese and and they
discovered some things not just because
of what they were eating but because of
what was eating them but also even more
importantly their relationships that it
that if you weren’t obese and you around
people that they are obese you take on
their habits and behaviors and you start
gaining weight even if they’re in
another state your chances of becoming
obese by being in relationship with that
person communicating with that person is
still over 61% that’s mind-blowing
here’s a correlation it also applies to
your income but because people who earn
twenty thousand and forty thousand
dollars a month don’t hang out with
people who earn fifteen or twenty
thousand dollars a month so you have to
look at if you’re serious about
transforming your life and making it in
spite of part of what you’re gonna have
to do when you look at where you are and
ask yourself the question is this me and
if it’s not one of the first things you
have to do one change your mindset the
second thing is you’ve got to upgrade
your relationships I remember my brother
you say Leslie yes Mara mama boy you run
around with nine broke people you’ll be
up you’ve been over cheers I’m telling
you why because birds of a feather flock
together birds of a feather flock
together and so I’ve gotten more done I
changed my relationship with two of my
children I’ve got more done and more
accomplished and earned more in the last
seven days in position my life and my
business and the business I’m going to
pass on to Phil I’m a greater asset
now then I was in partnership with them
why because a certain energy don’t work
even if they they were products of you
you you got to be in the right energy
where are you
because if you’re not in the right
energy if you don’t have the right
people around you trust me on it really
literally it compromises your life you
Larry littles I went to school with
Larry littles he graduated from boogity
Washington High School in 1963 he was
drafted by the San Diego Chargers
he went to Pithom Cookman college and
drafted by the San Diego Chargers he was
unproductive there to the extent they
traded him for a dollar Larry went from
San Diego to Miami and played for the
Miami Dolphins became an all-pro
offensive guard one of the few all-pro
offensive gods inducted into the Hall of
Fame
what happened location changed
environment environment is important
environment is important I’ve gotten
more breakthroughs in the last week one
letting negative stuff go to embracing
the possibilities and and deciding I’m
going to create a new chapter for my
life deciding I’m on my 74th year on the
planet and listen to me I’m know a thing
or two because I’ve seen a thing or two
if you going through some stuff right
now listen to me you’ve heard it trouble
does not last always you’ve heard it
James Cleveland come forth Lord helped
me to hold out please the Jesus not
please serve Jesus please the Jesus I’ll
tell my change come let me tell you
something of it here and it’s going to
come
don’t ask when it will
when it comes that’s when it comes and
the key is therefore taken to you the
whole armour of God that he may be able
to withstand in the evil place is keep
the faith baby keep the faith as Adam
Clayton Powell would say keep the faith
that this to show past
keep the faith that you are more than a
conqueror keep the faith that is greater
is He that is in you that he that’s in
the world
keep the faith that you have the power
the snatch victory from the jaws of
defeat keep the faith and spider what is
said to you spider
you got to work to do you deserve to be
happy and I can tell you when you keep
the faith Joseph Campbell talks about
the long dark journey of the soul that
when you keep the faith that which you
want will come to you and reveal its
secrets and will bring people in your
life that will bless you that will bring
opportunities to you that I has not seen
ear has not heard nor is entered a heart
of mankind what God has in store for you
I’m telling you what I know I’m so
thankful thousand nine days in
University Hospital at Ohio State and
didn’t even know my oncologist said man
when I came to see you you were messed
up when I came to see you
Syrena and Calvin were calling your
other children and say we don’t think
there are some things that can happen to
you that you never see coming
yes I can answer question westerns
what’s what’s the one of some of the
questions yes since in carts price says
what about children who can’t get away
from their environmental situation the
question was asked what about children
who can’t get away from their situation
and their environment because their
children and they can’t just leave and
provide for themselves try and develop a
relationship with someone that can be a
sanctuary for you someone that can be an
ear for you to communicate with that you
can share with that can perhaps explore
some other options particularly if the
abuse of the environment is so toxic
it’s over the top and you need to be
extracted out of that environment
there’s somebody somewhere you watch
them you observe them you develop a
relationship with them and ask for help
I believe ask for help even if your
child not because you’re weak but
because you want to remain strong and
ask for help and don’t stop until you
get it by my attorney Sean Arnold used
to go to school with makeup on her face
because her father blackened her eyes
and and they call it to the office and
and and she the last time that he beat
her she called the police and she asked
what do you do if a child was being
abused and and and the cop gave her some
suggestions and say did you want to give
us a person’s name she said I am the
person and she divorced her parents she
was young
14 years old she got out of the end up
in and in foster care but guess what
Sean is an attorney today Sean is my
attorney Sean is a speaker today Sean is
making the difference in other foster
kids and adopted kids lives and she’s
their voice defending them and
when kids get out of abusive situations
next question please
Frank Frank Frank said how can I become
a best speaker well Frank number one I
think become clear what it is that you
want to speak on Frank to find someone
Frank that you admire how they handle
their message how they deliver it their
effectiveness their impact and get some
coaching now why would I suggest that
well I had a friend that the other day
told me he eat practices in the mirror
all the time and I said and you have
untrained eyes looking back at you
Serena Williams is the best and most
dominant tennis player in the history of
tennis and she has a coach Tiger Woods
has a coach Muhammad Ali said I’m the
greatest and he never won a championship
without Angelo Dundee Michael Jordan he
never won a championship without Phil
Jackson as a coach you can’t see the
picture when you’re in the frame find a
coach someone that that can help you
deliver the message that you want to
deliver someone that can strengthen you
in the areas where you’re weak someone
that can help you bring your story out
and create an experience with an
audience that you can transform them
individually and collectively I also
encourage you to join Toastmasters they
have a good structured program that will
be very helpful for you for advanced
speakers and beginning speakers and the
National Speakers Association which I’m
a member of those two organizations one
will help you with the business part the
other one will help you with your
presentation skills next question I have
a speaker training I didn’t meet it

hunger factor I’m doing a tour and I’m
taking speakers who attend my speaker
training call discover your power voice
it takes place in Deerfield Beach
Florida it’s going to be sold out you
want to get your ticket now it’s all my
goodness I can’t afford it wasn’t it you
can’t afford not to be there and success
is not convenient you have to make room
for it if it’s a calling on your life if
it’s something like me I’ve got to speak
if you’ve got to speak if you’ve got a
story Maya Angelou said there’s nothing
as painful as an untold story buried in
your soul there’s somebody that needs
that story and I wanted and I look in I
want to make this clear I don’t want
everybody in my tree I want people that
are hungry that are hungry people that
are hungry that’s why my book is called
the hungry factor because most people
are casual about their dreams most
people are not focused and I discipline
I don’t want that kind of energy around
me I want people who want to make it
happen I want people who want to go big
I didn’t want to be just a speaker I
gotta tell you this Mike Williams get
his book is called the road to your best
stuff get the audio version the road to
your best stuff I asked him I saw him
speaking in Columbus and I admired his
content his delivering his style and I
said man can you teach me how to do that
he said yeah and so it cost
I had to invest in myself for him to
become my strategy has been for 48 years
so guess what so he said tell me what
you goal is that’s it well you know what
I’d like to speak for the Urban League
and for the n-double-a-cp they have
organizations all across the country at
like history time and and I said and in
the the phone when did I call back okay
let me start over again because we lost
the signal he said we didn’t lose the
signal I said what happened
he said uh-huh I said well why would you
hang up on me I was telling you what I
were to do he said I’m not interested in
and somebody who want to speak speak at
Black History time well further urbanely
go in double acp I want to work with
some
who want to go big I want to work with
somebody who want to speak to the world
and he hung up again I called him Agassi
that’s me I’m the words he expanded my
vision can you feel a brother or fit
here up in here
whatever I’ll behave I’m sorry I’m sorry
it’s the new medication I’m so sorry
okay
I’ll be good I promise I’ll be good
great question yeah thank you Frank I
hope I answer your question yes a good
friend of mine Erik worry son Taylor is
asking what advice did you give your
children in building their own personal
brands individually separate from your
brand and Erik worries Erik worries son
as what did you what advice did you give
your children to to build their own
brand separate from you I said first of
all speak about what it is that you are
passionate about my son Calvin he raised
two wonderful daughters my
granddaughters and he talks about
fatherhood and and raising girls my son
Patrick he talks about family he’s the
glue of the family he’s the one that
keeps the communication together owner
she talks about owning your dreams my
daughter Serena she talks about how to
raise positive kids in a negative world
and so they found their own messages and
I work with them to help them to to
deliver their message effectively but
they also coach me I believe you’re
never too old to learn and you’re never
too young to teach and we do it as a
family and we have an incredible time
they’ll be tuned with me as well awesome
so let’s wrap it up
back tomorrow yes okay we’re gonna wind
up so here’s something to keep in mind
number one look at your relationships
take some time and just think about it
oh just some top of the head and mine
thinking just reflect on it because
they’re they’re people that always there
when they need you but when you need
them you can’t find them a lot of the
emotional vampires out here and then ask
yourself the question is this
relationship an asset to me
does it bring value to my life am i
growing mentally and emotionally and
spiritually it’s this relationship
bringing out the best in me and
introducing me to a part of myself that
I don’t know Mike Williams introduced me
to this Les Brown I didn’t know this guy
and had I not had that positive
relationship one positive relationship
can make all the difference in your
world you have something special you
have greatness in you this is les brown

back tomorrow yes okay we’re gonna wind
up so here’s something to keep in mind
number one look at your relationships
take some time and just think about it
oh just some top of the head and mine
thinking just reflect on it because
they’re they’re people that always there
when they need you but when you need
them you can’t find them a lot of the

growing mentally and emotionally and
spiritually it’s this relationship
bringing out the best in me and
