5 Things about giving up That No One Ever Told You


peace and Finnick waters diving deep
once again we are out here where nature
here that bird singing up there five
things about giving up nobody ever told
you breathing in that good a soprano
baby we ain’t even had breakfast yet can
I get a hello number one jumping
straight into it it’s okay to give up
that’s right oh my gosh that’s right
it’s okay to give up
look our society tells us if you give up
something you are a failure no you’re a
terrible failure to even make it worse
because you have to keep on going even
if you don’t like it whoa wait a minute
let me share with you what has helped me
along my journey if I didn’t give up me
over eleven years ago there would be no
vegan challenge there would be no seven
day vegan challenge there would be no
seven day vegan challenge if I had hung
around with people that really pissed me
off like 11 years ago I wouldn’t be
standing here right now it’s okay to
give up what isn’t serving you let me
repeat that it’s okay to give up what is
not serving you to start over to move
towards something that is serving you
let’s face it we don’t want to be called
a failure you might be at a job right
now you’re deciding should I stay or
should I go if you go you’re giving it
all up that was me that was the
predicament I was in years ago I wasn’t
happy where I was working I didn’t want
to give it up though because I didn’t
want to be seen as a bum as a failure
not realizing that when I did give it up
it created so much space that it allowed
me to start fresh to breathe in that
good ass prana baby if I didn’t give up
being in office 12-hour days I wouldn’t
be in nature baby right I would still be
in an office so what’s helped me in
giving up learning more about giving up
is that it’s okay to give up you don’t
want to push yourself if you’re not
happy somewhere
give up while you can to start over
right cuz I look at it like this every
single day is a new start and I’m not
fundamentalist sometimes I might stop
making videos for a week go to the
Bahamas take a bunch of grapes put them
in my mouth right take a bunch of
strawberries put them in my mouth
take some papaya put it in my mouth and
then come back to start making videos I
might do some consultations take a week
off and then do some again but a lot of
us we pressurize ourselves to the point
where we say I should never give up what
does that do to you if you are heading
down the wrong path you’ve still got
that program running in your
subconscious I must never give up that’s
why a lot of people are having a lot of
problems right now are you one of them
put your hand up to put it up I do I got
problems all the time but I solve them
all the time because I know when to give
up and I know when to start over there
is no guilt in giving up no shame in
giving up if it’s something that does
not serve you because if you are holding
on to something that could be killing
you you’re probably gonna die soon sorry
I have to break it to you like that but
that’s the truth that was me alone my
early journey I’d to move my ass into
the second thing about giving up nobody
ever told you momentum
people say Ralph you’re kind of
consistent I don’t call it that
I call it momentum when you’ve been
doing something but like 10,000 hours
you develop supreme momentum you become
a master at your craft the Beatles had
been playing in clubs in Germany way
before they became the Beatles so when
they were the Beatles they were masters
at their craft I was making videos way
before I even had a camera I was using a
potato and drawing the screen on the
potato didn’t work out so good you have
to practice the more you practice you
build consistency the more consistency
you have in something the more trust you
have in something the more trust you
have in something the more confidence
you have in something the more
confidence you have in something you now
realize you can never fail
slow-motion s there is no such thing as
failure in becoming your greatest
version because what we perceive as
failure failures
are in essence only stepping-stones to
help you become your greatest version
let me repeat that what you perceive as
failures are only in essence stepping
stones to help you become your greatest
version so we don’t see it like that
right if you can hold on to realize be
patient everything is coming together
right no it’s not spoiling a pup don’t
worry about everything is coming
together No
go along with it for goodness sakes
everything is coming together that’s
what I was saying even though things
were falling apart everything is coming
to go there you slip over but giving up
you don’t give up when you realize you
can never fail you don’t give up when
you start believing in yourself a lot of
us we don’t do that why because we are
momentum is all about letting go to
realize whatever you have to offer the
world is good enough when you can accept
yourself
if you can realize the longer you have
been doing something the easier it is
then you don’t give up when it comes to
doing what you love you can’t it’s
impossible because you’ve been
developing so much momentum over the
years I’ve been creating videos for so
long so long I can’t even remember when
I first started not that long actually
number three the third thing about
giving up nobody ever told you if it was
easy everybody would be doing it and
that’s what I realized along my own
journey I said I want to help people and
I realize actually everybody’s doing
pranks maybe I should do the pranks just
maybe cuz I said I don’t see people
helping people and I don’t see that
hitting the mainstream because if it was
easy everybody would be doing it
Coldplay said nobody said it would be
easy
that’s right coke Blake sing it cuz it’s
really difficult what makes it so
difficult because we overwhelm ourselves
we make things more complicated than
they have to be willpower
simplicity creates willpower it is the
catalyst for becoming your greatest
version you don’t want to keep it simple
you want to spend hours and hours and
hours and days and months trying to get
it right that’s why it’s not easy that’s
why it’s really difficult you see to
really manifest the dream and a vision
you’ve got to be in it for the long haul
you got to make videos on rainy days you
got to start writing your ideas down
when everybody is partying you got to
learn how to sometimes stay in when it’s
a really nice day like today we’re
outside because we already we already
manifested our dream which is building
that’s why it is very difficult for us
because we’re not staying original to
what we want to do nobody said it would
be easy when you see someone you think
it’s easy until you do it and realize
you better sit back down you better sit
back down because it’s tough it’s like a
muscle every year your muscles are
getting bigger no they’re not they’re
not enough don’t worry about it
they should be that’s how it works
but it’s not gonna be easy there are so
many obstacles our face but every single
obstacle I climb over I become wiser
stronger funnier I learn how to laugh at
myself this is what keeps me going this
is what allows me to never give up
because it’s not about me it’s about the
cat down the road it’s about you guys
right and what we’re doing collectively
at the talk I was at phenomenal people
came out it got sold out but it wasn’t
about me it was about everyone who came
to the event
people who played music at the event who
talked at the event great things happen
when you connect with those who remind
you who you are that is how to never
give up you need a support team number
four let’s just say imagine for one
second the ancient Egyptians gave up
putting 2.5 million blocks of stone
together there would be no Great Pyramid
of Giza that’s for sure what would there
be instead nobody knows I went to the
pyramids of giza right beautiful site
but it’s because of people’s
perseverance oh you’re saying they
weren’t people they were aliens okay
aliens perseverance that works like that
work someone built them whoever it was
didn’t give up putting 2.5 million
blocks of stone together so just imagine
if you were going to Egypt without
seeing the pyramids right how it’s
changed people’s lives all because
people or aliens didn’t give up Thank
JK Rowling writing in her flat getting
rejected by publishers there would be no
Harry Potter whoa Disney his idea for
the theme park getting trashed three
hundred and two times there would be no
disneyland so we think that a lot of
people you find to be really successful
oh that’s accessible no they’ve had to
deal with getting rejected but they
didn’t give up but just imagine if they
did you would not you would you would
not be holding your iPhone right now if
there would be no infinite waters if I
gave up whoa breathing in that good ass
prana baby a number five the fifth thing
about giving up nobody ever told you is
that it really is worth it in the end
really is but while you’re doing it it
won’t seem so yes let’s get honest it
will feel like a complete waste of time
sometimes you might want to throw your
laptop you might want to throw your
laptop out of the window or even smacks
on with it don’t be violent be
sometimes you might want to pull out
your hair and sometimes you might think
that this is not actually for you but
then one moment we get a burst of
inspiration from nowhere the body will
be like this you’re like that’s why I’m
doing it and when you begin to see the
fruits of your labor you will rejoice
and say it was worth it I realize it was
worth it
why because we have connected with over
half a million people subscribers over
fifty four million people watching right
so it’s paid off you reap the benefits
when you can hold on to a vision plant
the seed and then watch it grow slow
motion hmm
so there you have it Wayne even had
breakfast yet that’s how hungry we are
out here wait and even had breakfast yet
that’s how hungry we are out here
say it again Ralph we ain’t even had
breakfast yet that’s how hungry we are
out here how can we give up and we ain’t
even started yet it’s about to get real
real real real real okay real real real
