The Greatest Inspiration Ever – THE SECRET – Motivation Archive | Episode 5


I always have visions of better
I’ve always visualized better and in
times of struggle by driving around
driving down in a banger of a car that I
had to push-start I’d be still driving a
soft-top any around be over California
in my head I’m long bald now I am
driving my beautiful soft up any around
California no I always visualize good
things and always visualize victory
success abundance I visualized it all
and it’s all happening I don’t want to
be an icon I want to be an idea you know
I want to represent an idea i want to
represent possibilities I want to
represent magic right that you’re in a
universe in two plus two equals four
two plus two only equals four if you
accept that two plus two equals four two
plus two is gonna be what I want it to
be you know and there’s that there’s a
like there’s that there’s a redemptive
power that making a choice has you know
rather than feeling like you’re at a
fete to all the things that are
happening make a choice like you just
decide what its gonna be who you’re
gonna be how you’re going to do it just
decide and then from that point the
universe is going to get out your way
it’s like it’s water once the it wants
to move and go around stuff you know so
for it from me I want to represent
possibilities I want to represent the
idea that you really can make what you
want one of my favorite books is the The
Alchemist Paulo Coelho and
that’s just I just believe that I
believe that I can create whatever I
want to create if I can put put my head
on it right study it learn the patterns
and you know I just I it’s hard to put
into words real metaphysical esoteric
nonsense but I feel very strongly that
we are who we choose to be you know most
people and and here’s the irony is that
most people don’t have a compelling
vision for their own future they don’t
they move through life setting goals and
goals have no power we’re almost fear at
this point your goals on power 1959 when
Earl Nightingale came his idea of goal
setting and it was like wow I’m a goal
oriented person and that was trained it
worked like 20 years everyone set goals
and they and they got results but then
all of a sudden you know you set goals
and sometimes you hit them sometimes you
know most times you don’t okay that’s
okay but goals almost became like a
synonym for like oh I’m gonna set a goal
who gives it really happens afterwards
and it almost synonymous with failure
now goal-setting there’s something above
and I believe in setting goals but
there’s got to be something above your
goals and that’s your vision for the
future and it’s not just about it
doesn’t have like an ending points about
the world being a certain way and that’s
inspiring to you and you when you truly
have a vision for your future that
inspires you you’re gonna jump up out of
bed in the morning and feel great about
going at life versus being miserable and
going to a job you hate or living a life
that doesn’t empower you and just you
know everyday moving through just almost
like an automaton not really you know
having the zest and the great the
greatness of life and I’m joking I’ve
been there myself when I felt like I
didn’t really have a compelling vision
for my own future and I felt like I was
wallowing but at least I’m conscious of
that once you become conscious of that
you can consciously create a vision for
your future it doesn’t happen in once in
one minute or an hour you write it down
you work on until it I mean you finally
hit on it you know you know you got it
when when you really fact yourself your
vision statement and it moves you and
you feel inspired okay and you know so
people have that and and what happens is
every human being is thirsty for a
vision everyone is and so few people
have one so what I do they grab it
towards someone who has a vision for the
future because they want to be a part of
her vision part of being a great
entrepreneur is having that vision be
able to create the vision and then sell
that vision to other people to get them
to want to be inspired to buy into it to
put in their time their hard work their
elbow grease to help you achieve your
vision if you’re a small firm then you
spread the wealth around it’s a it’s a
win-win for everybody
it’s our intention our intention is
everything nothing happens on this
planet without it not one single thing
has ever been accomplished without
intention this is when I’ve got the
secret thing but I didn’t know it was
called a secret I read the book the
color purple and then went out and got
books for everybody else I knew and I
was obsessed about this story obsessed
about it I ate slept thought all the
time about the color purple I moved to
Chicago I get a call from a casting
agent asking what I like to come an
audition for a movie I’ve never gotten a
call in my life from anybody for a movie
or anything like that and I say is it
the color purple and he says no it’s a
movie called moonsong and I go well I’ve
been praying for the color purple and I
go to the audition and of course it was
the color purple I audition I don’t hear
anything for months and I go to this
this fat farm and I think it’s because
I’m back because I was about 212 pounds
at the time and I think I didn’t get the
call back because I’m so fat and I’m at
this fat farm and I’m praying and crying
saying to God help me let this go
because I wanted to be in this movie so
much I wanted that I wanted I wanted it
I thought I was going to be in the movie
there’s all these signs that I should be
in the movie and I go to this fat farm
and I’m praying and crying and as I’m on
the track singing the song I surrender
I surrender all all to thee my blessed
Savior I surrender all I’m seeing that
song praying and crying a woman comes
out to me and she says on the track it’s
raining and she says there’s a phone
call for you and the phone call was
Steven Spielberg saying I want to see
you in my office in California mark now
what I learned from that at that moment
absolutely changed my life forever
because I had drawn the color purple
into my life I didn’t know Steven
Spielberg I didn’t know Quincy Jones who
saw me in Chicago in 1984 he was he was
there for a lawsuit that was being filed
against Michael Jackson cuz he’d been
working on his Thriller album and he saw
me on AM Chicago and said that’s Sophia
now I didn’t know him I didn’t know
anybody that had anything to do with
that but I knew that I had drawn that
into my life and it changed the way I
thought about my life forever so you’re
not surprised at the success of the
secret I am I’m thrilled for the success
of the secret I think that the message
needs to go further because I think the
mistake that was made with the secret is
that they try to they don’t know they
that they tried to let that be the
answer to all questions it’s not that
it’s just one law the law of attraction
is one law there are many laws working
in the world but it is very true that
the way you think creates reality for
yourself there are other factors going
on so it’s not everything but you really
can’t change your own reality based on
you gotta have a vision a vision for
what it is you really truly want not
what you think you want or what you
should have I mean one of most people’s
New Year’s resolutions I’m gonna stop
eating sugar you know I’m gonna stop
smoking I’m gonna lose 10 pounds
probably that is it’s not very inspiring
for most people you know it’s not
telling you what you’re gonna get it’s
only what you’re not gonna do and it’s
kind of hard to have you move forward
with that a vision is about what you’re
here to create a vision that really
works is one that excites you if you say
well
you know my resolution my goal my
outcome for this month this week this
year is to lose X number of pounds
that’s okay but it’s not very compelling
it has to be a compelling vision it’s
gotta have something has the power to
pull you not something you have to push
yourself to do those are two different
kinds of motivation push requires
willpower and willpower never lasts what
will last is pull having something so
exciting so attractive so something you
desire so much that you have a hard time
going to sleep at night you get so up
early in the morning to rock it and take
it to the next level that’s what you’re
looking at great and that wasn’t easy to
get but one of the reasons we do
seminars and events and be saying you
know why do that why isn’t why not just
read a book or something is because when
you get an environment where you’re with
people that are being put in a peak
state like when you’re going to a
sporting event if you watch the sporting
event at home it might have a certain
level of excitement but when you’re in a
stadium with 50,000 people suddenly it
has a whole different level of intensity
when we feel that and the bottom line of
our follow-through comes down to our
emotional intensity in a different state
of mind you’re gonna come up with a much
better and more exciting vision than if
you’re sitting the couch going okay what
am i new resolutions for this year and
you’re doing it the morning after the
new year started and you’re a little
inebriated and the football games on in
the background probably not gonna have
the power of focus they’re probably not
gonna have a power the energy to create
something that’s gonna pull you for this
year and you got to do that so it’s got
to be a vision that’s compelling
something that you know it’s going to be
a gift to make sure that it happens well
the simple part that most people don’t
understand is that every thought we
think in every word we speak is creating
our future it’s as though our thoughts
go out into the universe see most of us
just think think think think think think
think and we don’t pay any attention to
what we’re thinking we’re just doing it
but that’s something you need to train
yourself to do to begin to train
yourself to be aware of what you’re
thinking yeah don’t just knock them out
I picked around John yeah I said this
I’m sure he’s a probably all thinking in
your head this guy is talking absolute
dribble he’s not gonna do what he says
he’s gonna do he’s are probably all
sitting there thinking that but now here
we are again
and I done what I said I was gonna do I
feed off this I feed off this I love
this stuff this is what gives me energy
saying I’m gonna do something Saint
putting it out there for the world to
see I mean going out and doing it
there’s no better feeling in the world
than that and it’s as easy as that say
well you’re gonna do and go and do it as
you think so shall you be seven little
words that I think are perhaps the most
important things that we can learn and
master in our lives
this old proverb notion that I become
what I think about all day long and once
you know that what you think about is
what expands you start getting real
careful about what you think about you
don’t allow your thoughts to be on
anything that you don’t want or that you
wouldn’t want to have manifest or show
up for you in your life I knew I was
going to be the person to bring my
thoughts to the public eye I know what’s
happening and remain those two things
I’ve learned from all from these past
several months number one is the hard
work pays off and number two is that
dreams come true and that’s what’s
happening do you understand that that
all of this this entire event is
happening inside you
we’ll just try to feel it for a second
cuz it’s a trip man
some people go to the Super Bowl I am
the Super Bowl man I swear my friends
are all going to see that play that was
great I’m like yeah but the energy
coming out of me right now man is
unbelievable
I’m just sitting there I’m the stadium
I’m the vendors outside I’m the crack
dealer on the corner I’m everything man
there’s no end to it and it’s so much
fun it’s so much fun so I hope you can
feel that and I hope you understand that
you are one of the creators of this
evening that your intentions and your
desires created this evening as well and
then I hope you are able to ask yourself
why did I get such a crappy seat and be
okay with it I mean you’re in the last
row in the last seat and yet you created
this
that’s gotta be it’s a really selfless
thing to do it’s a beautiful feeling
when preparation meets opportunity you
know nothing it nothing is impossible
you know I mean it you can you can
achieve anything I’m gonna continue
going on this journey and if the title
shows next I will take it if not at the
end of that I already feel like that is
mine I already feel like that belt is
mine so eventually one by one I will get
every single one of them until there is
no one left and then I will decide what
to do from there but the belt is already
mine I feel we are old and sure retired
a long season but mentally we have a we
have a vision we have a finish we have
to attain you know and sometimes you
have to do it when you old and you’re
tired you know and I think it’s the test
of your will to succeed when you have to
deal with some of these negatives and
I’m pretty sure you know by the end of
this playoffs you’ll see the old and the
tired people were very very young and
strong mentally screaming your name
you’re the new pin-up boy and in six
months you’re on my list of India’s most
desirable so what’s going on in your
mind right now it’s amazing I have
absolutely no time to pause and take a
look at the amazing things happening
around me
everything’s just happening so fast boom
boom boom you must have written a dream
script for yourself for your success as
a star has it superseded that script
it has I’ll tell you a funny story for
my 23rd birthday my sister instead of
candles on my cake had made these small
pictures and she had morphed my face
onto posters of Yash Raj – Shahrukh says
face was removed and my face was put on
a poster of the lolly the lady a lady
again
you know she I think had to read this
book all the secret that’s right yeah
and the power of positive thinking and
so I took those pictures off the cake
and I pin them up in my room
and lo and behold it came true so a lot
of people were surprised when they found
out that you’ve been signing your name
is Champ 2011 how did that come about
you know I believe in the law of
attraction and I believe that that you
can speak things into existence and I
believe that when you know where you’re
going and you know what you want the
universe has a way of stepping aside for
you and me sign of my my signature with
champion 2011 on it can’t hurt me they
can’t hurt me it could could only help
me to believe it even more you know so
uh so so yeah I mean it works for me in
saying something that I find to be very
interesting the butterflies in your
stomach are in formation I’ve never
heard that before I think it makes a lot
of sense what do you mean by that it
elaborate what I mean about it okay so
um the butterfly’s information basically
it means when you have butterflies and
you’re feeling anxious and you have
anxiety or nervous that’s when your most
powerful I believe and either you can
yeah your most powerful so a lot of
people instead of homing this power and
using it they allow it to just consume
them you know there’s another quote that
says a big challenge or big pressure is
like a fire instead of a raging fire
either you can allow this fire to
consume you and just take it over
completely or you can gain control of
this fire and harnessed it and you blow
it right at your opponent like Dragon
Ball Z style
alright so that’s what I’m trying to do
I try to get my emotions under control
and use this adrenaline to my advantage
I’m a production of you know I thought
you know it’s not like I was the best
rapper in the world or something you
know it’s sat around and thought about
it and then became Kanye West am I just
doing these train of thoughts anyway
that it’s like it’s kind of fun because
when this goes online or whatever it is
it really matters and it like really
doesn’t matter what matters is you know
the people who are sparked by it and the
people who are like offended by it it
doesn’t matter
you you know like because it’s
about motivating the doers and anyone
that wants to sit around and talk
you’re doing too much time they take it
too much time talking about it
I said of getting up off their ass and
following their dreams because I’m here
to follow my dreams you know and help
other people follow their dreams and
inspire people who are dreamers what I’m
doing right now the music I’m dropping I
want it I want the number one spot I
will have it you know I’m this is what
I’m going for it and I want to beat the
press I want to beat you know anybody
that everything I tried to make me out
to be is just so crazy and so this and
so that thank you you just add into the
excitement you’re giving me stuff to
write about
I want the number one spot I’m going for
it I’m not to take it this is what I’m
here to do this is I mean what else do
you want me to do that’s why I go to the
studio so I can murder this is you
know this is my job this is my life this
is my passion
the time is now the time is now to
express and for people to believe in
themselves the time is now for it to be
okay to be great people in this world
shun people for being great for being a
bright color for standing out but the
time is now to be okay
to be the greatest you when I was 17
around that same time kind of when like
you know the vision of actually doing
this hatched was that like 17 like that
the inception of it was you know when I
was like six or seven writing raps in a
notebook and stuff like that but like
the really proactive like Koch’s you
know going after it started at 17 and I
read a Napoleon Hill the magic ladders a
success things what it’s called and then
Deepak Chopra seven spiritual laws of
success The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho I
mean those are like super big Bibles and
later on I read four agreements and
stuff like that but those were like
super super important to kind of forming
the mindset and just using those tools
to really make what you want happening
you know like I mean like you said law
of attraction it’s about speaking things
into existence you got to understand
that your thoughts are not just these
like whimsical
things that have no weight and carrying
away in the universe your thoughts are
things your thoughts are like the whole
weight and there’s a big pool of energy
in the universe that if you connect
everyone’s actually connected to it you
know I’m saying we’re just the universe
experience on ourselves but when you
really like tune into that ideology that
yo my thoughts do turn into something if
I believe in and I put the right energy
behind it you can really make what you
want to have happen happen you know
exactly like you said in law of
attraction we we got what we want
another life I never went to an acting
school
I just went out there just watching
films reading up stuff about people act
as you just you know autobiographical
stuff I think you did other things too
like what saying what is my sister tell
you preparing for the future what what
okay you know what Frieda loved standing
in front of the mirror and I’m you know
pretending she was receiving the Oscar
and asking herself questions and
answering them it’s funny cuz one day
she was doing that alright and she was
studying in front of the mirror and I
happened to walk in and Frieda was
really embarrassed and you know she was
like why did this come and I was just
laughing it was funny but she’s
practiced her Oscar speeches and she’s
received awards and you know given her
thank-you speeches all in front of the
mirror even before all of this happened
so embarrassed at is the power of dreams
yeah and I want you to remember
everything you imagined is possible it’s
out there and it the the wind open
started and that made first I was like
wow this will actually have Shahrukh
Khan
