[Music]
I believe desire and will to win is
everything I don’t know why I’m like I
am but my butt’s always burning there’s
always something say our dad gummit
you’re supposed to go far hard dad
gummit you’re supposed to be somebody
you’re supposed to make a difference
with you lie what does the $500,000 your
person do the $50,000 your person
doesn’t do you look at outside and study
those two individuals everything seems
to be the same they both are the same
sex they both are the same age have the
same training the same positions the
same contract the same fringe benefits
they both are successful they work hard
they’re good family people make tough
commitments but what’s the difference
what does the $500,000 your person do
the $50,000 your person doesn’t do he
pays the price a little bit more he
works Harding a little bit more he’s
loyal to the cutting a little bit more
he believes in a little bit more he
makes Maine a little bit more he saves
money a little bit more if you want to
win these United States you got to be
tough and you can’t quit it’s folks if
you want to win in business you got to
be a leader leadership is everything you
show me anything in these United States
that win I’ll show you a leader at work
I thought at one time in my life you had
to be smart to win and I found two
things out about smart people I think
it’s almost impossible for a smart
person to win it
in America today because I find smart
people spend their whole lifetime
figuring things out they always trying
to figure out an easier way in a quicker
way and another thing I found out about
smart people’s they just don’t get
around to doing nothing they see
something like Bart Williams everybody
said well he can’t do it
and so my like that can’t do it but he
does it see folks I want you to know
almost everybody in America almost does
enough to win they almost get there
they almost Rover the huh they almost
have it going they almost in everything
they do
almost is a way of life almost everybody
in America but the winners do it what do
they do they do whatever it takes to get
the job done they do it and do it and do
it and do it and do it until the job
gets done and then they talk about how
great it is to be somebody they’re proud
of if you want to become somebody do it
if you want to go and finish for
yourself do it if you want to become
financially independent do it I hear too
much talk in these United States
everybody can talk a good game we need
people in America who can do it
I go all over this country with a o
wheeze and I have people say are you you
count on me wonderful
just do it alright I guarantee this is
my light last stop I’m gonna win now
SuperDuper just do it alright if I could
just have one good month and get the
ball go and I know I could make it big

manners you don’t give me no help what I
do you just do it hard you don’t
understand I was mr. everything in my
former company you don’t mean I I have
to start off down at the bottom and do
it do you yep you really got to do it
[Music]
but I want you to know that while
they’re getting the diamonds and the
millions there are a lot of people
around the world for them it is the
worst of times the best of times and the
worst of times
that’s called serious manner how comes
such a difference from those who can
reach such incredible heights and those
who haven’t yet found the answers for
their life and their health in their
future we just have to palm to that and
let that give us a note of seriousness a
note of series it’s serious whether you
win or lose it’s serious whether you
succeed or fail it’s serious whether
you’ve got a good future carved out for
yourself or you do not
these are serious matters matters of the
heart are serious matters of income or
serious matters of supporting your
family Syria are you serious why we got
a serious matter here to discuss we
haven’t come with the latest ten stories
we’ve come with a serious matter and I
want you to take on that serious tone
you’ve got some serious products that
answer serious need out there in the
marketplace I’m asking you to take it
serious take your own future series what
you can do for your family take it
serious this is serious business so
that’s the first thing I want to bring
to you
to have the best year ever this year so
that you can say I made my best and
finest contribution to see that goal
reached not just for the figure for the
figure but for all the figure represents
for the healing it represents the
restoration of working lives that it
represents and people that are scurries
about their life of the chances now in
Currys on a new road for all that that
represents
willing to make the studies willing to
make the commitment willing to do the
learning find better ways to choose the
words find better ways to reach inside
get heart and soul mix it all together
and make an impact on people but here is
the best motivation we’ve got going the
proof of our success when we bring our
success stories to this platform that’s
enough motivation when we bring our
dedication and let it show we let the
work of our hands show that’s the
motivation we want right not just
excitement just excitement alone won’t
do it just because you’ve listened to
those millionaire tapes one times no
sign you’ve got it I’m asking you to
listen to them over and over and over
I’m asking you to dedicate yourself to a
new level of learning you know study
learn grow change develop never let it
be said you didn’t learn right if you
want to solve your problems you got to
learn you want to take advantage of an
opportunity you got to learn develop
your own personal philosophy here
philosophy major determining factor in
how your life works out each person’s
philosophy is like the set of the sail
the same wind blows on us all the
difference in where we arrive at the end
of the week at the end of the month at
the end of the year is not the wind that
blows
and the wind is blowing around the world
the world is in solution things aren’t
changing the walls have come down all
kinds of things they’re happening in
Russia tonight today the winds are
blowing but what’s going to make the
major difference each person’s personal
philosophy that sets a better sail sets
a better sail
so don’t ask for a more favorable win
that’s like wishing something that’s not
going to occur don’t ask for better seed
soil all you got so it’s available don’t
curse what you got on this planet all we
gots the seed to tear the soil that’s
here the miracle of life the tear the
opportunity that’s here the seasons that
are here that’s all we got
wherever you come from in your country
the economy you got that’s all you got
in America our economy that’s all we got
the government that’s all we got the
marketplace that’s all we got whatever
you do don’t criticize all you got the
key is to set a better sail and turn
what you’ve got into the miracle of your
future don’t wish it was easier wish you
were better don’t wish for less problem
wish for more skills you might go home
and set a whole new pace for yourself
and we call it cleaning up neglect
should walk around the block could walk
around the block for your good health
don’t walk around the block see you’re
on the wrong track should read could
read don’t read on the wrong track
should call could call don’t call on the
wrong track could change should change
don’t change you’re on the wrong track
letters you haven’t written
conversations you haven’t had with your
family somebody you should sit down with
when you get back home get that job done
don’t let neglect destroy your days
destroy your life and destroy your
future go back and do what you can
and if you’ll do what you can then life
will give you some extraordinary things
to do do you start first with the
smallest of disciplines and do not
neglect them and do not disregard them
as being trifling everything matters
everything is important all disciplines
affect each other in fact here’s a good
philosophical phrase if you haven’t
thought of it before here it is
everything affects everything else it’s
so easy to be casual and say well this
doesn’t matter this doesn’t matter I’m
telling you everything matters of course
some things matter more than others but
there isn’t anything that doesn’t matter
as if you’ll be faithful if you’ll be
disciplined when the amounts are small
we’ll make you a ruler give you a
position of authority when the amounts
are many take care of your disciplines
when the amounts are small and then life
we’ll see to it that you get some
extraordinary numbers to work with like
you saw the stories displayed here do
not disregard the smallest of
disciplines let us not neglect do not
neglect the smallest of disciplines and
build on that foundation and you can
have everything you could possibly want
you say well what can I do about the
upcoming winters of my life the
challenges that I know I’m going to face
here’s what you can do you can get wiser
and stronger and better just make a list
of that trio of words wiser stronger and
better go home smarter than you came go
home with more ideas that you came with
next get stronger you can develop the
muscle you can develop the courage
muscle you can develop the inspiration
muscle you can develop the dedication
muscle you can get stronger there’s
anybody here that can’t get stronger
next time we see you may not even
recognize you how strong you’re going to
be able to become in language style
personality the ability to cope the
ability to handle with anything that
happens no matter what happens
the key is not to wish for a better
winter the key is to wish for more
strength more wisdom more courage get
better get wiser get stronger
and you’ve got to learn not only to
nourish your values you’ve got to learn
to do battle with your enemies
whatever threatened you
I’m asking you to threaten it back take
care of your responsibilities
don’t take anything off anymore somebody
wants to destroy your chances for a good
future by their negative talk negative
thinking putting it all down I’m telling
you
walk away if you have to walk away
whatever threatens you threaten it back
whatever threatens your opportunity
threatens it back now some of our
enemies are on the outside but here’s
the most important thing to understand
some of our enemies are on the inside
let me give you a quick list
indifference you got to do battle with
your own indifference boy it’s easy to
coast especially if you’ve accomplished
something you know extraordinary now
suppose I got to relax here’s the key
not too long the weeds will take all you
plan to be rest too long don’t rest do
wrong in decision you got to make those
decisions the ones that don’t turn out
to be good gives you the experience to
make better decisions
don’t let much time go by without making
some decisions the ones that you can
make quickly make them quickly the ones
that take time take your time but get
those decisions made don’t let
indecision be an enemy rob you of the
future empty your bank account
leave you with zero in the purse don’t
let that happen
the next one is doubt
sure there’s doubts on the outside
people doubt that America is going to
make it people doubt that Europe is
going to make people doubt that Russia
is going to make it the Poland’s going
to make it the Czechoslovakia is going
to make they doubt the whole world is
going to make it
but I’m asking you not to pick up all
those doubts I’m asking you to have some
faith have some courage believe drive
your doubts into a small corner
don’t let them loose like a mad dog
drive you into a small corner don’t
doubt the future don’t doubt the
possibilities don’t doubt the
extraordinary gifts that your
distributors bring to your organization
don’t doubt that here’s the most
important one of all don’t doubt
yourself if I’ve got miracle-working
power to change my life so to you if
I’ve got the ability to change so do you
if I’ve got the ability to read so do
you if I can discover so can you if I
can grow you can grow I wish I could
look you in your own eyes dead center
and say you can do it because you can
[Music]
believe in you because you’re unique
they’ve been over 10 billion people’s
Tullio on the face of this earth there’s
never been another you believe in your
fellow human being believe in what
you’re doing the company you represent
if you do not think you deserve success
if you do not think you deserve a bigger
home to be a million dollar producer to
have an outstanding mate our beautiful
well disciplined children who are
productive if you don’t think you
deserve them then you’ll do things that
will keep you from getting them
[Music]
the greatest message I could ever give
to you is that one simple thing yes you
can grow I said with all of my heart I
know in my mind that man was designed
for accomplishment that he’s engineered
for success that he is endowed with the
seeds of greatness you can start from
where you are with what you’ve got and
so long as you build on a moral
foundation I believe you can get
anything you really want you’ll just
help enough other people get what they I
[Music]
started writing this book and I kind of
got excited about it I put in there some
words you can go where you want to go
you can do what you want to do you can
be like you want to be man I wrote those
words and I said now Ziggler that’s
pretty good when I wrote this book I was
convinced it would sell I sent it to
three publishers they were convinced it
would not sell they wrote me back said
we don’t think it’ll sell now when it
got to the fourth printing their own
begins and hey you know we think that
thing’s gonna sell but at first they
said no I believed that it would I
believed on so ladies and gentleman that
it would sell well I was enthusiastic
about I did a lot of work on it
so I decided that’s gonna go ahead and
print the book myself most authors who
print their own book they don’t print a
thousand copies maybe 2,000 and rare
cases 5,000 but I believe the next point
about a goal is tremendously important I
believe you’ve got to have
amendment now made that commitment I
ordered 25,000 copies for that initial
printing I tell the story because it’s a
story of goals of big goals of lifetime
goals of monthly goals weekly goals
hourly goals even ladies and gentlemen
I’d made a commitment you got to have
those long-range goals and the rule is a
simple one you go as far as you can see
and when you get there you’ll always be
able to see further people today
complain of lack of time it’s not lack
of time that’s the problem it’s the lack
of direction are you wandering
generality or are you a meaningful
specific tell me the truth now Zig how
did you feel about getting up in the
morning and going out there and doing
that running how’d you feel about it I
wanna tell you this
I hated it man that alarm clock could
sound off you know and I’d lay there for
a minute not thinking myself Ziggler
what’s a 46 year old fat boy like you
doing getting up running all over the
neighborhood your buddies are sound
asleep what are you trying to bro well I
didn’t want to look like me no way so
I’d get out of bed but just cause I was
running that didn’t mean I had to like
it I ran in the snow of Winnipeg Canada
I ran in the sands of Acapulco literally
ran in the orange groves of Florida I’ve
run in the rain right here in
Minneapolis and then one day ladies and
gentlemen I was running in Portland
Oregon beautiful day
never forget it about 78 degrees I was
on Portland State University campus
there’s about 12:30 or 1:00 o’clock I
was scheduled to speak I believe at 4
o’clock now is out running and as I was
running on that campus I looked around
some of the kids were laying on blankets
raiding somewhere studying somewhere
courting some are just relaxing here
comes old
we’re running down my back sweat running
down my legs you know and for the first
time
you don’t owe me that I was not paying a
price for the first time that day latest
normally don’t owe me that I was having
the time of my life
you don’t owe me that I was enjoying
every single step that I was taking I’m
stronger than I was a quarter of a
century ago I can do things that I could
not have dreamed of doing just a few
years ago I contend that you do not pay
the price for good health you thoroughly
enjoy the price
[Music]
let’s look at number one let’s sell you
on the idea of having Gold’s are they
important at Yale University in 1953
they did a study of the graduating
seniors they discovered that of the
graduating seniors only 3% of them had
definite predetermined written down
goals 20 years later they did another
survey of those seniors who had
graduated they discovered that the 3%
who had committed their goals to paper
had accomplished more than the 97% who
had not written them down what about you
personally if you got your goals laid
out are you a meaningful specific or are
you a wandering generality how could a
man hit a target he could not see that’s
a pretty good question here’s another
one how can you hit a target you do not
have have you got one are you a
wandering generality or are you a
meaningful specific are you going to
work tomorrow because that’s what you
did yesterday if that’s the reason
you’re going tomorrow you won’t be as
good tomorrow as you were yesterday
because you’re two days older and no
closer to the goal you do not have he
was designed for a compass but he’s
engineered for success he’s endowed with
the seeds of greatness and the greatest
danger we as human beings have is when
we do not do anything at all he had to
work it he had to make a hundred calls a
day he had to sleep on the floor the
Penobscot building he had to join
Toastmasters he had to join the National
Speakers Association he had to get
rejected he had to show up and audience
and say how long we thought that’s
running the Bandari now is coming and by
the time they left they said that band
is renowned nobody gave him a shot
nobody gave him a chance
nobody said let me take you in the
studio or put you in front of a grocery
it’s not a question of whether or not
it’s possible conquering is part of your
description it is in your nature the
will to overcome and produce was
designed to be a part of your genetic
makeup wake up wake up wake up you pay
the price for failure you pay the price
for a poor marriage you enjoy the price
of a good one you enjoy the price of
success you just look at the people
who’ve made it and the people who have
not made it I believe we’ve got to
change our vocabulary see there’s
nothing I don’t believe you pay the
price I know that you enjoy the price
the clothes not by wishing you a good
day I’m going to close by guaranteeing
you a good for ever and I truly will see
you at the top but in the end the most
important thing is what’s the purpose of
life why are you here everything on
earth has a purpose and you do to that
purpose provides an inner drive that
once you tap into it can give your life
immense fulfillment but no matter what
changes on the surface this part of you
does not change if the part you come
back to the part that guides you the
part that really makes you fulfilled and
that’s your purpose because all of a
sudden when you find out a friend’s got
cancer or you turn around and you see
that 35,000 people IBM got laid off or
an entire industry disappeared overnight
because a new one was created it’ll give
you a way to find some good and
virtually anything your purpose is
available to you at any moment in your
life but you got to know what it is you
know when the goal is finally there then
he’s gonna be happy no no no no you know
each moment we’ve got to be able to find
some sense of meaning for our life
something that a significant something
is useful and we all know this is not a
new conversation see all of us in life
have to have a reason to be here if all
you’re doing out there is going out and
trying to achieve goals and then you
achieve them that I’m sure you’ve run
into that trip up wire that says okay
I’ve achieved the goal now what right we
achieve the goal your brain says is this
all there is see the purpose of a goal
is I’ve shared with you so many times is
not to achieve the goal the purpose of
the goal is what it makes of us as
people who we become ultimately with all
we have to have a sense that who we even
have become has some kind of meaning
without that there’s not a reason to
live there’s not a reason to get up
there’s not a reason to go out there and
make it happen what’s really controlling
this man’s life is fear when people say
they’re cynical or they’re pessimistic
what they’re really screaming out to you
is I’m scared out of my mind I’m afraid
to dream again I’m afraid to think about
what’s possible I’m afraid to really put
myself on the line it’s time
go for something I’m gonna stand for
something I’m gonna put myself in line
in a relationship or my business or my
vision to make a difference in the world
cause you know what maybe at one time
this person did that maybe they tried it
several times and it didn’t work and
they got pain and pain and bein pretty
certain they didn’t want the pain so
they stopped dreaming he stopped and
visioning we stopped coming up a meaning
instead they trying to keep themself
away from the pain by saying well
there’s no meaning at all anyway but
unfortunately gives you the ultimate
pain cuz it gives you a life without
meaning and no one can live a life
that’s fulfilled without a sense of
meaning see we’ve been put here for a
reason
question is why and the answer I think
is different for every one of us it’s
different for me than it is for you and
yet it’s the same
[Music]
I’m really going to the essence of
giving your life what you deserve which
is knowing that there are no mistakes
knowing that every little thing you do
has a consequence
it can be a positive consequences if you
choose the most powerful thing that has
consequence in your life though is the
thing we talk about so often but I gotta
say it again and that is what’s really
ultimately shaping our lives our
decisions the first decision is a
decision about what to focus on where
your focus go is going to determine how
you think how you feel what you do
ultimately what your life turns out like
what you’re able to contribute the
bottom line is we must find an
empowering focus out of any situation
the second decision that shapes our life
in the meaning of our lives are the
decisions that we make about what
something means meaning as ultimately
something we determined that’s the
exciting part about it and that’s the
scary part of that the third decision of
course is what are you going to do when
something happens see so much of the
fear that we see in life comes from the
fact that most of us don’t feel like
we’re in control we’re running around
trying to control all the events of our
lives and every single one of us is
going to experience multiple situations
in our life that no matter how skilled
or we are where we cannot control the
event where it’s just not something that
we can control because we didn’t
initiate it anytime you’re dealing with
other people this is going to happen
anytime you’re dealing with Mother
Nature this is going to happen most of
us in life are so afraid something’s
gonna happen that we can’t control
therefore we’re gonna get pain that we
try to avoid those things we can’t
control
try to shape our lives where we spend
our time who we spend our time with what
we do by environments that we feel
really comfortable in when we feel like
we’re really in control of them what
that does is it limits the shape and
quality of our lives we’ve got to be
willing to put ourselves out there
discover what we’re really capable of
we’re put in environments when we don’t
know what to do we don’t know what
things mean when we’re not sure it’s in
those environments that we grow the most
it’s in those environments we discover
more of our true purpose as human beings
it’s there that our character is shaped
you know so many times we set goals or
we have dreams or we have plans and we
work our tail off and it doesn’t come
out the way we want a lot of people come
out of those situations disillusioned or
angry or resentful or frustrated they
look for someone to blame but you know
sometimes I really truly believe that
not getting your goal as part of the
design it’s part of the game plan
causing you to dig inside and discover
more of yourself to really begin to use
your real capacity as human being those
traits that are within you that only
expand when they’re challenged when
demands are made upon them
that what you do is human being is
primarily driven by your need to avoid
pain your desire for pleasure right
let’s see all of us have learned through
life certain things mean more pain than
others and so some people are driven by
their fear right to experience the
emotion of fear is the most incredible
painful thing they could ever imagine so
they’ll do anything to avoid being in a
fearful situation other people are
driven by their desire to feel the sense
of adventure
obviously they make decisions
differently they focus on different
things in life they can walk in the same
room as someone who lives in fear and
they’re gonna notice different things
they’re gonna want to sit in a different
place they’re gonna want to try a
different kind of vacation than someone
who’s trying to focus on how to be
secure what drives you are you driven by
guilt are you driven by your past when
we were to use the word driven the word
Drive it really means to guide to
control or to direct something so what’s
guiding you what’s controlling you
what’s directing your behavior what’s
directing your focus what’s directing
the meaning you’re pulling from your
life what is it is it your parents is it
the competition you have with somebody
else is it wanted to prove somebody
wrong is it your desire to contribute is
it your desire for joy or happiness or
is it a sense of purpose that’s driving
a sense there’s something out there for
you to do something you’re designed to
evolve into to become to share to give
to create you don’t even know what it is
but you’re willing to trust that each
day more of its gonna come out see
whatever drives you that’s what’s
shaping your life and the challenges
that most of us never consciously decide
what we’re gonna have drive our life
you don’t trust if you don’t have faith
and you instantly die internally you may
not die physically but you die
emotionally because anything that’s
worth living in life requires faith
requires trusting it requires knowing
that you can get out of the chair and
walk on this floor and when you step out
on the floor you don’t stop and have to
analyze can I do this and you don’t
weigh everything and think about your
weight in the structure of the floor
what’s underneath that you just trust
otherwise you’d be immobilized you have
to trust the driver car you have to have
faith to enter a relationship get faith
to start a business you have to faith
when all of a sudden somebody this
company says these 35,000 people are
gone into faith but if you’re one of
those 35,000 that there is a better plan
for you and that you will now act on
that faith and take action and find that
better plan that better solution for
your life you must have that you lose
trust you lose meaning when you lose
meaning you lose your life again maybe
not physically but certainly emotionally
and when you lose it emotionally the
physical loss of life often is not that
far behind
[Music]
you got to grow you got expand you got
to contribute you got to know that
you’re here for a purpose there are no
mistakes there is a meaning even if you
haven’t found it yet you must discover
it you know what most people they don’t
discover the meaning of their life until
their life is over what a sad place to
be or until they have a life-threatening
illness or until somebody very close to
them that they love is about believe
them you don’t have to wait for the pain
to discover the meaning for most of us
the meaning that we want for our lives
is here today and it’s preparing us for
an even greater meaning in the future if
we’ll just use all of our life’s
experience the pain and the pleasure to
become more
decide consciously what you want your
life to be about decide consciously
what’s the purpose your life something
simple something you can live every
single day now I think that when I look
at people’s lives and I see the people
who are having so much difficulty I
think the number one reason why people
fail to experience joy and life
experience life as a win it’s not
because their life isn’t the win because
the wind can be just reaching out and
touching somebody around you the wind
can be just telling somebody that you
love them the wind can be taking care of
your body God’s temple the wind can be
stopping and feeling grateful the wind
can be anywhere you don’t have to land
on the moon to have the wind and you can
enjoy landing on the moon too how much
better to enjoy the process because
we’re going to spend most of our life in
process towards the achievement of goals
[Music]
I remember an interview with Michael
Landon and Life magazine when he knew he
was gonna go means that quote somebody
should tell us right at the start of our
lives that were dying and we might live
life to the limit every minute of every
day do what I say whatever you want to
do do it now
there are only so many tomorrows if you
don’t know now you know it’s true your
friends family and loved ones will be
the first ones to try and talk you out
of greatness when you’re ready to do
something and try something new
that’s out of your comfort zone that’s
out of your norm it’s always the one
you’re dating the one you marry to the
oneness in your family your friends in
your immediate circle that will always
try and talk you out of doing something
special and significant
walk into bold and uncomfortable doors
without having fear and rejection
without having fear of the word no do
you know how many people have had
visions ideas and huge career moves that
they were about to make and they allowed
the word no to stop them from changing
the landscape of their life and their
family lives so many people are afraid
of rejection and the word no it is the
saddest shit I’ve ever witnessed in my
life so I no longer have fear of
rejection I no longer have fear of the
word no I’ve never I no longer give
power to the word no I could care less
about you rejecting me disowning me me
having visions and ideas and you not
saying what I see I see what’s not there
only those that can see the invisible
community impossible
I see what’s not there I have visuals my
visions of bowl unapologetic
boldly walking to the wall put your head
held up high
and if they don’t get it laughs about
don’t disown your ideas because they’re
disarming your
don’t lose confidence in your ideas
because they don’t have confidence in
your ideas you got gifts you got talents
you got capabilities you got you got
inventions you got phone apps you got
all of these things that you need to
unleash on the world you don’t have
money you may not have the financial
resources but don’t allow your visions
and ideas to be stifled because of
what’s in your bank account or not when
you have visions and ideas you do any
means necessary to get a hold of the
investors and the people with all the
money in the world who don’t have your
ideas to see to it that your ideas come
to life I am so proud of you already
because only a chosen few will hear this
message and you’re going to reactivate
the beast inside of you and move on
those visions ideas and inventions I’m
proud of you I’m celebrating your
success already
now what is the secret of achieving
goals how do you really want it how do
you put it down so everyday you know if
you’re going in that direction success
or maybe your altar you know people like
Manzi your genetics is a year potential
is it when it comes down to it success
is nothing to do with potential it’s all
about the perseverance of somebody that
will override any endeavor if you throw
shit against the wall eventually
something will stick you guys say our
heads potential don’t hesitant
you know that shit dies what continues
to last forever is a perseverance always
show up that’s what champions do every
single champion the same as every
ordinary person knowing differentials
that they show up to the event every
single day they see failure as a
learning curve they welcome failure you
learn more from failure than you ever
were success so showing up and get
knocked on your ass on a test support
you stand back up or me if they said
endeavor it’s going to be the overriding
factor that may
how do you know when you’re doing this
things small things in life add up to
the big monumental thing what’s it a
small thing it’s a character building
block that your name means some people
value to your knee if you drop trash on
the ground you pick it up that’s a
responsibility you hold value to
yourself you shake someone’s hand you
look them in the eye you can firmly
handshake you’re here for a purpose
everything you do do to the best of your
ability doesn’t know what you’re doing
so that you’re doing it therefore it
means something to you that’s going to
build a legacy you know the title out
there doesn’t mean shit you win the
title fine
that title will not get to another title
what you’re trying to build its legacy
you know footprint behind you there are
left motivation for someone else to
follow legacy is built daily through the
character the willpower the code of
conduct within somebody and that’s the
perseverance showing up every single day
that will always achieve the goal it
doesn’t matter what you’re born with it
doesn’t matter potential how much you
know silver spoon or money you have all
that can be attained if you show up and
you’re willing to to risk failure for
success

concept that if you want it you gotta go
get it some of y’all got this concept
with what you want what you want to
accomplish you know some of y’all are
motivated by broke I’m broke I’m stuck
I’m fucked up I can’t do nothing some of
y’all are motivated by just wanting to
accomplish the things that you want to
accomplish other folks are motivated by
materialistic things

it you gotta go kid
what does that mean
it means that you trying to convince me
or anybody else that you want to get it

people that they have it it’s time to
stay focused it’s time to decide

shit that you could ever want to do for
your family your kids your loved ones
it’s all gonna be on a whole nother
stratosphere it’s time to stay focused
this is what I hope
I hope this video makes you
uncomfortable
as I look at this I look at this as a
mirror you get to look yourself in the
mirror and acts hard and tough questions
what am i doing every single day with my
life creating obstacles challenges and
distractions for myself I am so proud of
you already because only a chosen few
will hear this message and you’re going
to reactivate the beast inside of you
and move on those visions ideas and
inventions I’m proud of you I’m
celebrating your success already a No
Limit person is never operating from
deficiency or from lack in their life
they’re never saying I don’t have enough
[Music]
you see you’re never going to get enough
you already are
everything you’re everything that you
need think of it for just a moment
everything that you need to have total
bliss perfection of your life
you already are you already have it you
came into this world with nothing that’s
how you’re going out and the time that
you have here it what you have is your
uniqueness your specialness and you
don’t need anything else now think on
this if you don’t know how to appreciate
what you have and where you are in your
life you don’t need anything because if
you do get something else you won’t know
how to appreciate that either you’ll
just want more or you’ll want it to be
different or you want it to be the way
it used to be
you’ll want someone else to be the way
you think they should be successful
people are no limit people
self-actualizing people inter direct to
people however you whatever labels that
have been put on them by great thinkers
philosophers and therapists people that
have looked at human beings these kinds
of people are people who always have
enough you never arrived because your
life becomes a series of trying to get
someplace else and it is if you follow
that if you live that if you behave that
then what happens to you is you become a
person who will always suffer from this
disease called more you always have to
have more choosing your own greatness
[Music]
being a No Limit person taking charge of
your own life something I really believe
that you are the sum total of all of the
choices that you’ve made up until now
this is a very crucial concept for for
me and for virtually all of us it’s this
idea of taking your life in your own
hands and being the kind of person that
you choose to be and understanding that
everything that comes your way is an
opportunity is a blessing and it wasn’t
until I learned how to celebrate
virtually everything that came my way
that I was able to transcend it no one
can deny the mountains are perfect and
the rivers are perfect and the birds are
perfect than the hippopotamuses are
perfect and and so this is just what was
given to us everything else that you
have on our planet that we have
comes about as a result of thinking
thinking thought makes itself alright
this microphone comes about as a result
of thinking somebody imagines that
somebody then tells somebody else and a
creative the dress with your work the
serger shoes the you have estate his
camera everything that you’ve seen that
wasn’t given to us was created by man as
a result of the way that we think the
way we think so what gets inside of us
as a cell comes about as a result of the
way that we choose to think in our lives
very important principle to understand
because once you get a hold of thinking
and that it creates everything that you
have in your life you can change and
make it is absolutely perfect
because thought makes itself
create a visualization is what we’re
talking about here the imagery the image
that you have of anything in your life
is really like mental behavior it’s like
why not in practice
shooting free-throws over and over
that’s physical practice imagery is
mental practice is mental behavior when
you have an image that you can succeed
at something you have an image that you
can do
when you get into your car you have an
image that you’re going to find a
parking place rather than there’ll be no
place to park or you’re not looking for
you will start acting on the image that
you have very much like you will start
acting on the practice that you have
when your
of working on your suit or anything else
that you’re doing
let’s say I would have stand up here in
front of you
I just visualize in a moment that I have
an orange and I take this orange and I
squeeze it as hard as I can
what’s gonna come why when you squeeze
an orange as hard as you can squeeze it
because orange juice come up because
that’s not because it’s an orange
because that’s what’s inside when
someone squeezes you is what’s inside
this is the the vital principle of being
a No Limit person it’s so crucial to get
this and understand that that if you
have any hatred in your heart for anyone
in this world or any anger or any fear
or any of those things it has nothing to
do with the rest of the world it only
has to do with what you put inside now
how does what gets inside of you get
there that’s the key how does it get
thick as you think only as you think you
see there’s no anger in the world
there’s no stress in the world it’s all
flowing the way it’s supposed to flow
the evidence for it is it is that’s all
the evidence you need just look around
you everything out there is a miracle
everything including you are no mistakes
it’s all perfect and everything that
happens to you in your life whether it’s
a trauma whether it’s a disease whether
it’s somebody treating you in a certain
way there’s a lesson in all of it
no-limit people understand the lesson in
life and therefore celebrate the lessons
it’s true and when you get to that point
in your life where you’re not cursing
the things that come your way and
blaming the things that come your way
and particularly blaming it on somebody
else and you hear it all the time she
hurt my feelings
how’s that possible how can anybody hurt
your feelings your feelings come from
your thoughts no one can hurt your
feelings without your consent no one can
make a fool of you without your consent
no one can embarrass you without your
consent these are choices that you have
that
from the way that you think
[Music]
now do you tell yourself that because my
friends don’t like me that that means
there’s something wrong with me now
that’s it that’s what you have to learn
that another person’s opinion is just
that it’s their opinion and that’s all
it is every time you are upset or your
children are upset because of what
somebody else says about them including
their peers what you are really saying
in that moment this is really important
what you’re saying is what you think of
me is more important than what I think
of myself and you must never give
anybody that kind of power and control
over you because they will always have
it
the roast identity said if you advance
confidently
in the direction of your own dreams and
endeavor to live the life which you have
imagined
you will meet with a success unexpected
in common hours what that means is that
success is not something that you can
get
success is an inner process success is
something that you bring to everything
you do in your life it isn’t something
you get out of what you do and when you
get that and you learn how to get the
junk out and advance confidently doing
what makes the most amount of sense to
you based on your inner signals and the
one issue of morality which is you never
interfere with anybody else’s right to
do the same each person has their own
right to advance confidently in the
direction of their own dream then
success will begin to chase you and it
will come into your life and arrive in
your life in amounts that you never
dreamt of before that you never dreamt
up things will start happening to you
that you would never imagined before in
the middle of the road of my life I
awoke in a dark wood where the true way
was wholly lost how do you know that
you’re on your path because it
disappears that’s how you know how do
you know that you’re really doing
something radical because you don’t you
can’t see where you’re going that’s how
you know but everything you have leant
on for your identity that’s gone and so
you are going to enter the the black
contemplative splendors of self-doubt at
the same time as you’re setting out on
this radical new path
and then see if you can put this across
people suddenly say wow amazing so here
are some of the steps along the path and
the amazing thing is is that the steps
are very precise
[Music]
being to me means seeing the greatness
and the uniqueness in you and never
letting anybody else convince you to the
contrary when people ask me come on
you’re always talking about being up and
you’re always positive and so on you
mean to tell me that you’re always that
way this is like really and it isn’t
because I’m out there doing something in
an artificial way it’s an authentic
response to my heaven having gotten the
junk out of me and the junk is the way
that I used to think the way that I used
to think
[Music]
Bucky fuller who I served with him The
Hunger Project Advisory Council for nine
years who died not too long ago said
that 99% of who you are you can’t touch
you can’t see you can’t go 99 percent of
you is untouchable on smellable
invisible it is what Ken Kaiser is
called your your conscious awareness
it’s your it’s what looks out behind
those eyeballs now if what you if 99
percent of who you are you can’t touch
and you can’t feel and you can’t smell
then where did what is it who is it
where are you what is this thing called
your essence or who you are and where
does it go who I am has been in many
many bodies already right and that
essence you see everything on our planet
that is alive can never die it can never
die life doesn’t die
it just transforms just moves on new
places in new ways being new anime and
the way of being that is the most
transcendent of all is this way it comes
from seeing yourself as love and only
having that to give away only having
that to give away
but what you do put out in the world is
exactly what’s coming back
and if you find things coming back to
you that you don’t like don’t understand
don’t ask yourself why these things are
coming to you ask yourself what you’re
doing to make them to collect and when
you start putting the responsibility on
your songs are seeing dramatic change
dramatic new way of being
instead of ethics instead of rules
effort a new another new way of being
instead of looking all your life for
achievements and externals
try living your life
nah
for the sake of knowledge being in a in
a context in which you don’t have to
collect a lot of merit badges you don’t
have to collect a lot of a lot of awards
and other people’s value judgment that
you go to school or you go out into the
world or you read or whatever you do
because it makes sense to you not
because what somebody else is going to
put on a transcript or where you’re
going to appear in a class list we need
to help our children to understand and
value the importance of knowledge for
the sake of knowledge and doing things
that make sense
rather than taking the easy way
[Music]
and I think there’s there’s something
really significant in that that you
don’t have to get it all planned out and
follow a certain pattern and do it a
certain way if you just sort of trust
your inner instincts and go with that
and live each moment the gold stuff
we’ll all take care of myself if you’re
sacrificing and pushing your life aside
and suffering on your way to trying to
get someplace you’ll never get there it
will always elude you because once you
get there you’ll just have to upgrade it
and that’s because that’s all you’ll
know nowness is that purest form of
sanity living in this moment and
enjoying it and all the rest of it will
sort of work its way out
[Music]
know thyself what Shakespeare said know
thyself
more you know yourself the more you the
more you become honest with yourself
honestly becomes just a way of life no I
don’t think the world necessarily does
but you can’t run your world you can’t
run your world based upon what the rest
of the people in the world want or don’t
want to me honesty is like it’s a karma
that goes out into the world how people
treat you in the world is their Karma
how you react is yours and what when you
react to it with dishonesty that’s what
you’re putting out into the world
dishonesty and when you put this
honestly out into the world that’s
what’s going to come back to you because
what goes out is what comes back at all
as you sow so shall you reap I mean it’s
it’s in every great institution that
there is in the world whether it’s a
religion or a philosophy or whatever
what you put out is what comes back
whatever you plant is what you’re going
to get back and the more that you put
out honesty just because it’s what you
are because you are being honesty you’re
not trying to be honest you were just
being honest t then that’s what will
come back to you
when it doesn’t just see that as another
test
means that you can find joy in every
moment that you have in your life
instead of being always looking for it
it means that while you are driving
along the countryside you know and
seeing instead of saying are but this is
I’m on my way to this point that you can
open your eyes and see it with new eyes
we see the rolling mouth see the grass
either deer see the skies you can just
stop wherever you are in this second
wherever you are and just look around
you and you can begin to appreciate just
your and your surroundings in your
environment then you can begin to
appreciate the people that are in your
life and even the ones that are negative
and you’re having the most difficulty
with you can practice a new way of being
with them which is sending them love
sending them flowers send them books
then undertake send them something and
just see what kind of reaction
super emotional health is just an
attitude an attitude is everything
forgiveness is the vital ingredient on
the path of enlightenment and if you
don’t know how to do it and practice
sending of love take the person or the
people that you’re having conflict with
any place in your life send them
something you don’t have to even do it
physically just send them something that
comes from inside and what’s inside is
how you choose to think and if you can
make that love and do that and that is
to me the test not whether you can love
someone when they smell good when they
do everything that you’re supposed to
but whether you can love someone who has
sent you hate or anguish in your life
and send it back you don’t have to
forget you don’t have to go back but you
got to get it out of you
is blocking you
you back
they are independent of the good opinion
of other people of the good opinion
independent of it they’re so busy
advancing confidently doing the things
that make sense and bringing success to
changing their baby’s diaper and
bringing success to weeding their garden
and bringing it to the job they bring it
on the airplane so that when they run
into somebody who is who is rude to them
a stewardess that is rude they don’t see
it as an attack on them it’s just where
they are and they send them love that’s
when you start coming back to us that’s
when that’s what enlightening one is
that’s what that’s the pathway to
enlightenment when you send out that
stuff that is destroying you is killing
you in one way or another and you move
yourself back over here and eventually
you get yourself all the way back this
is the light over here this is the place
where you can’t go back
[Music]
you
[Music]

[Music]
I believe desire and will to win is
everything I don’t know why I’m like I
am but my butt’s always burning there’s
always something say our dad gummit
you’re supposed to go far hard dad
gummit you’re supposed to be somebody
you’re supposed to make a difference
with you lie what does the $500,000 your
person do the $50,000 your person
doesn’t do you look at outside and study
those two individuals everything seems
to be the same they both are the same
sex they both are the same age have the
same training the same positions the
same contract the same fringe benefits
they both are successful they work hard
they’re good family people make tough
commitments but what’s the difference
what does the $500,000 your person do
the $50,000 your person doesn’t do he
pays the price a little bit more he
works Harding a little bit more he’s
loyal to the cutting a little bit more
he believes in a little bit more he
makes Maine a little bit more he saves
money a little bit more if you want to
win these United States you got to be
tough and you can’t quit it’s folks if
you want to win in business you got to
be a leader leadership is everything you
show me anything in these United States
that win I’ll show you a leader at work
I thought at one time in my life you had
to be smart to win and I found two
things out about smart people I think
it’s almost impossible for a smart
person to win it
in America today because I find smart
people spend their whole lifetime
figuring things out they always trying
to figure out an easier way in a quicker
way and another thing I found out about
smart people’s they just don’t get
around to doing nothing they see
something like Bart Williams everybody
said well he can’t do it
and so my like that can’t do it but he
does it see folks I want you to know
almost everybody in America almost does
enough to win they almost get there
they almost Rover the huh they almost
have it going they almost in everything
they do
almost is a way of life almost everybody
in America but the winners do it what do
they do they do whatever it takes to get
the job done they do it and do it and do
it and do it and do it until the job
gets done and then they talk about how
great it is to be somebody they’re proud
of if you want to become somebody do it
if you want to go and finish for
yourself do it if you want to become
financially independent do it I hear too
much talk in these United States
everybody can talk a good game we need
people in America who can do it
I go all over this country with a o
wheeze and I have people say are you you
count on me wonderful
just do it alright I guarantee this is
my light last stop I’m gonna win now
SuperDuper just do it alright if I could
just have one good month and get the
ball go and I know I could make it big
super just do it heart if I could just
pay off this debt I could really go gray
just do it hard if I could just sell my
house do it right but how are they

manners you don’t give me no help what I
do you just do it hard you don’t
understand I was mr. everything in my
former company you don’t mean I I have
to start off down at the bottom and do
it do you yep you really got to do it
[Music]
but I want you to know that while
they’re getting the diamonds and the
millions there are a lot of people
around the world for them it is the
worst of times the best of times and the
worst of times
that’s called serious manner how comes
such a difference from those who can
reach such incredible heights and those
who haven’t yet found the answers for
their life and their health in their
future we just have to palm to that and
let that give us a note of seriousness a
note of series it’s serious whether you
win or lose it’s serious whether you
succeed or fail it’s serious whether
you’ve got a good future carved out for
yourself or you do not
these are serious matters matters of the
heart are serious matters of income or
serious matters of supporting your
family Syria are you serious why we got
a serious matter here to discuss we
haven’t come with the latest ten stories
we’ve come with a serious matter and I
want you to take on that serious tone
you’ve got some serious products that
answer serious need out there in the
marketplace I’m asking you to take it
serious take your own future series what
you can do for your family take it
serious this is serious business so
that’s the first thing I want to bring
to you
to have the best year ever this year so
that you can say I made my best and
finest contribution to see that goal
reached not just for the figure for the
figure but for all the figure represents
for the healing it represents the
restoration of working lives that it
represents and people that are scurries
about their life of the chances now in
Currys on a new road for all that that
represents
willing to make the studies willing to
make the commitment willing to do the
learning find better ways to choose the
words find better ways to reach inside
get heart and soul mix it all together
and make an impact on people but here is
the best motivation we’ve got going the
proof of our success when we bring our
success stories to this platform that’s
enough motivation when we bring our
dedication and let it show we let the
work of our hands show that’s the
motivation we want right not just
excitement just excitement alone won’t
do it just because you’ve listened to
those millionaire tapes one times no
sign you’ve got it I’m asking you to
listen to them over and over and over
I’m asking you to dedicate yourself to a
new level of learning you know study
learn grow change develop never let it
be said you didn’t learn right if you
want to solve your problems you got to
learn you want to take advantage of an
opportunity you got to learn develop
your own personal philosophy here
philosophy major determining factor in
how your life works out each person’s
philosophy is like the set of the sail
the same wind blows on us all the
difference in where we arrive at the end
of the week at the end of the month at
the end of the year is not the wind that
blows
and the wind is blowing around the world
the world is in solution things aren’t
changing the walls have come down all
kinds of things they’re happening in
Russia tonight today the winds are
blowing but what’s going to make the
major difference each person’s personal
philosophy that sets a better sail sets
a better sail
so don’t ask for a more favorable win
that’s like wishing something that’s not
going to occur don’t ask for better seed
soil all you got so it’s available don’t
curse what you got on this planet all we
gots the seed to tear the soil that’s
here the miracle of life the tear the
opportunity that’s here the seasons that
are here that’s all we got
wherever you come from in your country
the economy you got that’s all you got
in America our economy that’s all we got
the government that’s all we got the
marketplace that’s all we got whatever
you do don’t criticize all you got the
key is to set a better sail and turn
what you’ve got into the miracle of your
future don’t wish it was easier wish you
were better don’t wish for less problem
wish for more skills you might go home
and set a whole new pace for yourself
and we call it cleaning up neglect
should walk around the block could walk
around the block for your good health
don’t walk around the block see you’re
on the wrong track should read could
read don’t read on the wrong track
should call could call don’t call on the
wrong track could change should change
don’t change you’re on the wrong track
letters you haven’t written
conversations you haven’t had with your
family somebody you should sit down with
when you get back home get that job done
don’t let neglect destroy your days
destroy your life and destroy your
future go back and do what you can
and if you’ll do what you can then life
will give you some extraordinary things
to do do you start first with the
smallest of disciplines and do not
neglect them and do not disregard them
as being trifling everything matters
everything is important all disciplines
affect each other in fact here’s a good
philosophical phrase if you haven’t
thought of it before here it is
everything affects everything else it’s
so easy to be casual and say well this
doesn’t matter this doesn’t matter I’m
telling you everything matters of course
some things matter more than others but
there isn’t anything that doesn’t matter
as if you’ll be faithful if you’ll be
disciplined when the amounts are small
we’ll make you a ruler give you a
position of authority when the amounts
are many take care of your disciplines
when the amounts are small and then life
we’ll see to it that you get some
extraordinary numbers to work with like
you saw the stories displayed here do
not disregard the smallest of
disciplines let us not neglect do not
neglect the smallest of disciplines and
build on that foundation and you can
have everything you could possibly want
you say well what can I do about the
upcoming winters of my life the
challenges that I know I’m going to face
here’s what you can do you can get wiser
and stronger and better just make a list
of that trio of words wiser stronger and
better go home smarter than you came go
home with more ideas that you came with
next get stronger you can develop the
muscle you can develop the courage
muscle you can develop the inspiration
muscle you can develop the dedication
muscle you can get stronger there’s
anybody here that can’t get stronger
next time we see you may not even
recognize you how strong you’re going to
be able to become in language style
personality the ability to cope the
ability to handle with anything that
happens no matter what happens
the key is not to wish for a better
winter the key is to wish for more
strength more wisdom more courage get
better get wiser get stronger
and you’ve got to learn not only to
nourish your values you’ve got to learn
to do battle with your enemies
whatever threatened you
I’m asking you to threaten it back take
care of your responsibilities
don’t take anything off anymore somebody
wants to destroy your chances for a good
future by their negative talk negative
thinking putting it all down I’m telling
you
walk away if you have to walk away
whatever threatens you threaten it back
whatever threatens your opportunity
threatens it back now some of our
enemies are on the outside but here’s
the most important thing to understand
some of our enemies are on the inside
let me give you a quick list
indifference you got to do battle with
your own indifference boy it’s easy to
coast especially if you’ve accomplished
something you know extraordinary now
suppose I got to relax here’s the key
not too long the weeds will take all you
plan to be rest too long don’t rest do
wrong in decision you got to make those
decisions the ones that don’t turn out
to be good gives you the experience to
make better decisions
don’t let much time go by without making
some decisions the ones that you can
make quickly make them quickly the ones
that take time take your time but get
those decisions made don’t let
indecision be an enemy rob you of the
future empty your bank account
leave you with zero in the purse don’t
let that happen
the next one is doubt
sure there’s doubts on the outside
people doubt that America is going to
make it people doubt that Europe is
going to make people doubt that Russia
is going to make it the Poland’s going
to make it the Czechoslovakia is going
to make they doubt the whole world is
going to make it
but I’m asking you not to pick up all
those doubts I’m asking you to have some
faith have some courage believe drive
your doubts into a small corner
don’t let them loose like a mad dog
drive you into a small corner don’t
doubt the future don’t doubt the
possibilities don’t doubt the
extraordinary gifts that your
distributors bring to your organization
don’t doubt that here’s the most
important one of all don’t doubt
yourself if I’ve got miracle-working
power to change my life so to you if
I’ve got the ability to change so do you
if I’ve got the ability to read so do
you if I can discover so can you if I
can grow you can grow I wish I could
look you in your own eyes dead center
and say you can do it because you can
[Music]
believe in you because you’re unique
they’ve been over 10 billion people’s
Tullio on the face of this earth there’s
never been another you believe in your
fellow human being believe in what
you’re doing the company you represent
if you do not think you deserve success
if you do not think you deserve a bigger
home to be a million dollar producer to
have an outstanding mate our beautiful
well disciplined children who are
productive if you don’t think you
deserve them then you’ll do things that
will keep you from getting them
[Music]
the greatest message I could ever give
to you is that one simple thing yes you
can grow I said with all of my heart I
know in my mind that man was designed
for accomplishment that he’s engineered
for success that he is endowed with the
seeds of greatness you can start from
where you are with what you’ve got and
so long as you build on a moral
foundation I believe you can get
anything you really want you’ll just
help enough other people get what they I
[Music]
started writing this book and I kind of
got excited about it I put in there some
words you can go where you want to go
you can do what you want to do you can
be like you want to be man I wrote those
words and I said now Ziggler that’s
pretty good when I wrote this book I was
convinced it would sell I sent it to
three publishers they were convinced it
would not sell they wrote me back said
we don’t think it’ll sell now when it
got to the fourth printing their own
begins and hey you know we think that
thing’s gonna sell but at first they
said no I believed that it would I
believed on so ladies and gentleman that
it would sell well I was enthusiastic
about I did a lot of work on it
so I decided that’s gonna go ahead and
print the book myself most authors who
print their own book they don’t print a
thousand copies maybe 2,000 and rare
cases 5,000 but I believe the next point
about a goal is tremendously important I
believe you’ve got to have
amendment now made that commitment I
ordered 25,000 copies for that initial
printing I tell the story because it’s a
story of goals of big goals of lifetime
goals of monthly goals weekly goals
hourly goals even ladies and gentlemen
I’d made a commitment you got to have
those long-range goals and the rule is a
simple one you go as far as you can see
and when you get there you’ll always be
able to see further people today
complain of lack of time it’s not lack
of time that’s the problem it’s the lack
of direction are you wandering
generality or are you a meaningful
specific tell me the truth now Zig how
did you feel about getting up in the
morning and going out there and doing
that running how’d you feel about it I
wanna tell you this
I hated it man that alarm clock could
sound off you know and I’d lay there for
a minute not thinking myself Ziggler
what’s a 46 year old fat boy like you
doing getting up running all over the
neighborhood your buddies are sound
asleep what are you trying to bro well I
didn’t want to look like me no way so
I’d get out of bed but just cause I was
running that didn’t mean I had to like
it I ran in the snow of Winnipeg Canada
I ran in the sands of Acapulco literally
ran in the orange groves of Florida I’ve
run in the rain right here in
Minneapolis and then one day ladies and
gentlemen I was running in Portland
Oregon beautiful day
never forget it about 78 degrees I was
on Portland State University campus
there’s about 12:30 or 1:00 o’clock I
was scheduled to speak I believe at 4
o’clock now is out running and as I was
running on that campus I looked around
some of the kids were laying on blankets
raiding somewhere studying somewhere
courting some are just relaxing here
comes old
we’re running down my back sweat running
down my legs you know and for the first
time
you don’t owe me that I was not paying a
price for the first time that day latest
normally don’t owe me that I was having
the time of my life
you don’t owe me that I was enjoying
every single step that I was taking I’m
stronger than I was a quarter of a
century ago I can do things that I could
not have dreamed of doing just a few
years ago I contend that you do not pay
the price for good health you thoroughly
enjoy the price
[Music]
let’s look at number one let’s sell you
on the idea of having Gold’s are they
important at Yale University in 1953
they did a study of the graduating
seniors they discovered that of the
graduating seniors only 3% of them had
definite predetermined written down
goals 20 years later they did another
survey of those seniors who had
graduated they discovered that the 3%
who had committed their goals to paper
had accomplished more than the 97% who
had not written them down what about you
personally if you got your goals laid
out are you a meaningful specific or are
you a wandering generality how could a
man hit a target he could not see that’s
a pretty good question here’s another
one how can you hit a target you do not
have have you got one are you a
wandering generality or are you a
meaningful specific are you going to
work tomorrow because that’s what you
did yesterday if that’s the reason
you’re going tomorrow you won’t be as
good tomorrow as you were yesterday
because you’re two days older and no
closer to the goal you do not have he
was designed for a compass but he’s
engineered for success he’s endowed with
the seeds of greatness and the greatest
danger we as human beings have is when
we do not do anything at all he had to
work it he had to make a hundred calls a
day he had to sleep on the floor the
Penobscot building he had to join
Toastmasters he had to join the National
Speakers Association he had to get
rejected he had to show up and audience
and say how long we thought that’s
running the Bandari now is coming and by
the time they left they said that band
is renowned nobody gave him a shot
nobody gave him a chance
nobody said let me take you in the
studio or put you in front of a grocery
it’s not a question of whether or not
it’s possible conquering is part of your
description it is in your nature the
will to overcome and produce was
designed to be a part of your genetic
makeup wake up wake up wake up you pay
the price for failure you pay the price
for a poor marriage you enjoy the price
of a good one you enjoy the price of
success you just look at the people
who’ve made it and the people who have
not made it I believe we’ve got to
change our vocabulary see there’s
nothing I don’t believe you pay the
price I know that you enjoy the price
the clothes not by wishing you a good
day I’m going to close by guaranteeing
you a good for ever and I truly will see
you at the top but in the end the most
important thing is what’s the purpose of
life why are you here everything on
earth has a purpose and you do to that
purpose provides an inner drive that
once you tap into it can give your life
immense fulfillment but no matter what
changes on the surface this part of you
does not change if the part you come
back to the part that guides you the
part that really makes you fulfilled and
that’s your purpose because all of a
sudden when you find out a friend’s got
cancer or you turn around and you see
that 35,000 people IBM got laid off or
an entire industry disappeared overnight
because a new one was created it’ll give
you a way to find some good and
virtually anything your purpose is
available to you at any moment in your
life but you got to know what it is you
know when the goal is finally there then
he’s gonna be happy no no no no you know
each moment we’ve got to be able to find
some sense of meaning for our life
something that a significant something
is useful and we all know this is not a
new conversation see all of us in life
have to have a reason to be here if all
you’re doing out there is going out and
trying to achieve goals and then you
achieve them that I’m sure you’ve run
into that trip up wire that says okay
I’ve achieved the goal now what right we
achieve the goal your brain says is this
all there is see the purpose of a goal
is I’ve shared with you so many times is
not to achieve the goal the purpose of
the goal is what it makes of us as
people who we become ultimately with all
we have to have a sense that who we even
have become has some kind of meaning
without that there’s not a reason to
live there’s not a reason to get up
there’s not a reason to go out there and
make it happen what’s really controlling
this man’s life is fear when people say
they’re cynical or they’re pessimistic
what they’re really screaming out to you
is I’m scared out of my mind I’m afraid
to dream again I’m afraid to think about
what’s possible I’m afraid to really put
myself on the line it’s time
go for something I’m gonna stand for
something I’m gonna put myself in line
in a relationship or my business or my
vision to make a difference in the world
cause you know what maybe at one time
this person did that maybe they tried it
several times and it didn’t work and
they got pain and pain and bein pretty
certain they didn’t want the pain so
they stopped dreaming he stopped and
visioning we stopped coming up a meaning
instead they trying to keep themself
away from the pain by saying well
there’s no meaning at all anyway but
unfortunately gives you the ultimate
pain cuz it gives you a life without
meaning and no one can live a life
that’s fulfilled without a sense of
meaning see we’ve been put here for a
reason
question is why and the answer I think
is different for every one of us it’s
different for me than it is for you and
yet it’s the same
[Music]
I’m really going to the essence of
giving your life what you deserve which
is knowing that there are no mistakes
knowing that every little thing you do
has a consequence
it can be a positive consequences if you
choose the most powerful thing that has
consequence in your life though is the
thing we talk about so often but I gotta
say it again and that is what’s really
ultimately shaping our lives our
decisions the first decision is a
decision about what to focus on where
your focus go is going to determine how
you think how you feel what you do
ultimately what your life turns out like
what you’re able to contribute the
bottom line is we must find an
empowering focus out of any situation
the second decision that shapes our life
in the meaning of our lives are the
decisions that we make about what
something means meaning as ultimately
something we determined that’s the
exciting part about it and that’s the
scary part of that the third decision of
course is what are you going to do when
something happens see so much of the
fear that we see in life comes from the
fact that most of us don’t feel like
we’re in control we’re running around
trying to control all the events of our
lives and every single one of us is
going to experience multiple situations
in our life that no matter how skilled
or we are where we cannot control the
event where it’s just not something that
we can control because we didn’t
initiate it anytime you’re dealing with
other people this is going to happen
anytime you’re dealing with Mother
Nature this is going to happen most of
us in life are so afraid something’s
gonna happen that we can’t control
therefore we’re gonna get pain that we
try to avoid those things we can’t
control
try to shape our lives where we spend
our time who we spend our time with what
we do by environments that we feel
really comfortable in when we feel like
we’re really in control of them what
that does is it limits the shape and
quality of our lives we’ve got to be
willing to put ourselves out there
discover what we’re really capable of
we’re put in environments when we don’t
know what to do we don’t know what
things mean when we’re not sure it’s in
those environments that we grow the most
it’s in those environments we discover
more of our true purpose as human beings
it’s there that our character is shaped
you know so many times we set goals or
we have dreams or we have plans and we
work our tail off and it doesn’t come
out the way we want a lot of people come
out of those situations disillusioned or
angry or resentful or frustrated they
look for someone to blame but you know
sometimes I really truly believe that
not getting your goal as part of the
design it’s part of the game plan
causing you to dig inside and discover
more of yourself to really begin to use
your real capacity as human being those
traits that are within you that only
expand when they’re challenged when
demands are made upon them
that what you do is human being is
primarily driven by your need to avoid
pain your desire for pleasure right
let’s see all of us have learned through
life certain things mean more pain than
others and so some people are driven by
their fear right to experience the
emotion of fear is the most incredible
painful thing they could ever imagine so
they’ll do anything to avoid being in a
fearful situation other people are
driven by their desire to feel the sense
of adventure
obviously they make decisions
differently they focus on different
things in life they can walk in the same
room as someone who lives in fear and
they’re gonna notice different things
they’re gonna want to sit in a different
place they’re gonna want to try a
different kind of vacation than someone
who’s trying to focus on how to be
secure what drives you are you driven by
guilt are you driven by your past when
we were to use the word driven the word
Drive it really means to guide to
control or to direct something so what’s
guiding you what’s controlling you
what’s directing your behavior what’s
directing your focus what’s directing
the meaning you’re pulling from your
life what is it is it your parents is it
the competition you have with somebody
else is it wanted to prove somebody
wrong is it your desire to contribute is
it your desire for joy or happiness or
is it a sense of purpose that’s driving
a sense there’s something out there for
you to do something you’re designed to
evolve into to become to share to give
to create you don’t even know what it is
but you’re willing to trust that each
day more of its gonna come out see
whatever drives you that’s what’s
shaping your life and the challenges
that most of us never consciously decide
what we’re gonna have drive our life
you don’t trust if you don’t have faith
and you instantly die internally you may
not die physically but you die
emotionally because anything that’s
worth living in life requires faith
requires trusting it requires knowing
that you can get out of the chair and
walk on this floor and when you step out
on the floor you don’t stop and have to
analyze can I do this and you don’t
weigh everything and think about your
weight in the structure of the floor
what’s underneath that you just trust
otherwise you’d be immobilized you have
to trust the driver car you have to have
faith to enter a relationship get faith
to start a business you have to faith
when all of a sudden somebody this
company says these 35,000 people are
gone into faith but if you’re one of
those 35,000 that there is a better plan
for you and that you will now act on
that faith and take action and find that
better plan that better solution for
your life you must have that you lose
trust you lose meaning when you lose
meaning you lose your life again maybe
not physically but certainly emotionally
and when you lose it emotionally the
physical loss of life often is not that
far behind
[Music]
you got to grow you got expand you got
to contribute you got to know that
you’re here for a purpose there are no
mistakes there is a meaning even if you
haven’t found it yet you must discover
it you know what most people they don’t
discover the meaning of their life until
their life is over what a sad place to
be or until they have a life-threatening
illness or until somebody very close to
them that they love is about believe
them you don’t have to wait for the pain
to discover the meaning for most of us
the meaning that we want for our lives
is here today and it’s preparing us for
an even greater meaning in the future if
we’ll just use all of our life’s
experience the pain and the pleasure to
become more
decide consciously what you want your
life to be about decide consciously
what’s the purpose your life something
simple something you can live every
single day now I think that when I look
at people’s lives and I see the people
who are having so much difficulty I
think the number one reason why people
fail to experience joy and life
experience life as a win it’s not
because their life isn’t the win because
the wind can be just reaching out and
touching somebody around you the wind
can be just telling somebody that you
love them the wind can be taking care of
your body God’s temple the wind can be
stopping and feeling grateful the wind
can be anywhere you don’t have to land
on the moon to have the wind and you can
enjoy landing on the moon too how much
better to enjoy the process because
we’re going to spend most of our life in
process towards the achievement of goals
[Music]
I remember an interview with Michael
Landon and Life magazine when he knew he
was gonna go means that quote somebody
should tell us right at the start of our
lives that were dying and we might live
life to the limit every minute of every
day do what I say whatever you want to
do do it now
there are only so many tomorrows if you
don’t know now you know it’s true your
friends family and loved ones will be
the first ones to try and talk you out
of greatness when you’re ready to do
something and try something new
that’s out of your comfort zone that’s
out of your norm it’s always the one
you’re dating the one you marry to the
oneness in your family your friends in
your immediate circle that will always
try and talk you out of doing something
special and significant
walk into bold and uncomfortable doors
without having fear and rejection
without having fear of the word no do
you know how many people have had
visions ideas and huge career moves that
they were about to make and they allowed
the word no to stop them from changing
the landscape of their life and their
family lives so many people are afraid
of rejection and the word no it is the
saddest shit I’ve ever witnessed in my
life so I no longer have fear of
rejection I no longer have fear of the
word no I’ve never I no longer give
power to the word no I could care less
about you rejecting me disowning me me
having visions and ideas and you not
saying what I see I see what’s not there
only those that can see the invisible
community impossible
I see what’s not there I have visuals my
visions of bowl unapologetic
boldly walking to the wall put your head
held up high
and if they don’t get it laughs about
don’t disown your ideas because they’re
disarming your
don’t lose confidence in your ideas
because they don’t have confidence in
your ideas you got gifts you got talents
you got capabilities you got you got
inventions you got phone apps you got
all of these things that you need to
unleash on the world you don’t have
money you may not have the financial
resources but don’t allow your visions
and ideas to be stifled because of
what’s in your bank account or not when
you have visions and ideas you do any
means necessary to get a hold of the
investors and the people with all the
money in the world who don’t have your
ideas to see to it that your ideas come
to life I am so proud of you already
because only a chosen few will hear this
message and you’re going to reactivate
the beast inside of you and move on
those visions ideas and inventions I’m
proud of you I’m celebrating your
success already
now what is the secret of achieving
goals how do you really want it how do
you put it down so everyday you know if
you’re going in that direction success
or maybe your altar you know people like
Manzi your genetics is a year potential
is it when it comes down to it success
is nothing to do with potential it’s all
about the perseverance of somebody that
will override any endeavor if you throw
shit against the wall eventually
something will stick you guys say our
heads potential don’t hesitant
you know that shit dies what continues
to last forever is a perseverance always
show up that’s what champions do every
single champion the same as every
ordinary person knowing differentials
that they show up to the event every
single day they see failure as a
learning curve they welcome failure you
learn more from failure than you ever
were success so showing up and get
knocked on your ass on a test support
you stand back up or me if they said
endeavor it’s going to be the overriding
factor that may
how do you know when you’re doing this
things small things in life add up to
the big monumental thing what’s it a
small thing it’s a character building
block that your name means some people
value to your knee if you drop trash on
the ground you pick it up that’s a
responsibility you hold value to
yourself you shake someone’s hand you
look them in the eye you can firmly
handshake you’re here for a purpose
everything you do do to the best of your
ability doesn’t know what you’re doing
so that you’re doing it therefore it
means something to you that’s going to
build a legacy you know the title out
there doesn’t mean shit you win the
title fine
that title will not get to another title
what you’re trying to build its legacy
you know footprint behind you there are
left motivation for someone else to
follow legacy is built daily through the
character the willpower the code of
conduct within somebody and that’s the
perseverance showing up every single day
that will always achieve the goal it
doesn’t matter what you’re born with it
doesn’t matter potential how much you
know silver spoon or money you have all
that can be attained if you show up and
you’re willing to to risk failure for
success

they’re never saying I don’t have enough
[Music]
you see you’re never going to get enough
you already are
everything you’re everything that you
need think of it for just a moment
everything that you need to have total
bliss perfection of your life
you already are you already have it you
came into this world with nothing that’s
how you’re going out and the time that
you have here it what you have is your
uniqueness your specialness and you
don’t need anything else now think on
this if you don’t know how to appreciate
what you have and where you are in your
life you don’t need anything because if
you do get something else you won’t know
how to appreciate that either you’ll
just want more or you’ll want it to be
different or you want it to be the way
it used to be
you’ll want someone else to be the way
you think they should be successful
people are no limit people
self-actualizing people inter direct to
people however you whatever labels that
have been put on them by great thinkers
philosophers and therapists people that
have looked at human beings these kinds
of people are people who always have
enough you never arrived because your
life becomes a series of trying to get
someplace else and it is if you follow
that if you live that if you behave that
then what happens to you is you become a
person who will always suffer from this
disease called more you always have to
have more choosing your own greatness
[Music]
being a No Limit person taking charge of
your own life something I really believe
that you are the sum total of all of the
choices that you’ve made up until now
this is a very crucial concept for for
me and for virtually all of us it’s this
idea of taking your life in your own
hands and being the kind of person that
you choose to be and understanding that
everything that comes your way is an
opportunity is a blessing and it wasn’t
until I learned how to celebrate
virtually everything that came my way
that I was able to transcend it no one
can deny the mountains are perfect and
the rivers are perfect and the birds are
perfect than the hippopotamuses are
perfect and and so this is just what was
given to us everything else that you
have on our planet that we have
comes about as a result of thinking
thinking thought makes itself alright
this microphone comes about as a result
of thinking somebody imagines that
somebody then tells somebody else and a
creative the dress with your work the
serger shoes the you have estate his
camera everything that you’ve seen that
wasn’t given to us was created by man as
a result of the way that we think the
way we think so what gets inside of us
as a cell comes about as a result of the
way that we choose to think in our lives
very important principle to understand
because once you get a hold of thinking
and that it creates everything that you
have in your life you can change and
make it is absolutely perfect
because thought makes itself
create a visualization is what we’re
talking about here the imagery the image
that you have of anything in your life
is really like mental behavior it’s like
why not in practice
shooting free-throws over and over
that’s physical practice imagery is
mental practice is mental behavior when
you have an image that you can succeed
at something you have an image that you
can do
when you get into your car you have an
image that you’re going to find a
parking place rather than there’ll be no
place to park or you’re not looking for
you will start acting on the image that
you have very much like you will start
acting on the practice that you have
when your
of working on your suit or anything else
that you’re doing
let’s say I would have stand up here in
front of you
I just visualize in a moment that I have
an orange and I take this orange and I
squeeze it as hard as I can
what’s gonna come why when you squeeze
an orange as hard as you can squeeze it
because orange juice come up because
that’s not because it’s an orange
because that’s what’s inside when
someone squeezes you is what’s inside
this is the the vital principle of being
a No Limit person it’s so crucial to get
this and understand that that if you
have any hatred in your heart for anyone
in this world or any anger or any fear
or any of those things it has nothing to
do with the rest of the world it only
has to do with what you put inside now
how does what gets inside of you get
there that’s the key how does it get
thick as you think only as you think you
see there’s no anger in the world
there’s no stress in the world it’s all
flowing the way it’s supposed to flow
the evidence for it is it is that’s all
the evidence you need just look around
you everything out there is a miracle
everything including you are no mistakes
it’s all perfect and everything that
happens to you in your life whether it’s
a trauma whether it’s a disease whether
it’s somebody treating you in a certain
way there’s a lesson in all of it
no-limit people understand the lesson in
life and therefore celebrate the lessons
it’s true and when you get to that point
in your life where you’re not cursing
the things that come your way and
blaming the things that come your way
and particularly blaming it on somebody
else and you hear it all the time she
hurt my feelings
how’s that possible how can anybody hurt
your feelings your feelings come from
your thoughts no one can hurt your
feelings without your consent no one can
make a fool of you without your consent
no one can embarrass you without your
consent these are choices that you have
that
from the way that you think
[Music]
now do you tell yourself that because my
friends don’t like me that that means
there’s something wrong with me now
that’s it that’s what you have to learn
that another person’s opinion is just
that it’s their opinion and that’s all
it is every time you are upset or your
children are upset because of what
somebody else says about them including
their peers what you are really saying
in that moment this is really important
what you’re saying is what you think of
me is more important than what I think
of myself and you must never give
anybody that kind of power and control
over you because they will always have
it
the roast identity said if you advance
confidently
in the direction of your own dreams and
endeavor to live the life which you have
imagined
you will meet with a success unexpected
in common hours what that means is that
success is not something that you can
get
success is an inner process success is
something that you bring to everything
you do in your life it isn’t something
you get out of what you do and when you
get that and you learn how to get the
junk out and advance confidently doing
what makes the most amount of sense to
you based on your inner signals and the
one issue of morality which is you never
interfere with anybody else’s right to
do the same each person has their own
right to advance confidently in the
direction of their own dream then
success will begin to chase you and it
will come into your life and arrive in
your life in amounts that you never
dreamt of before that you never dreamt
up things will start happening to you
that you would never imagined before in
the middle of the road of my life I
awoke in a dark wood where the true way
was wholly lost how do you know that
you’re on your path because it
disappears that’s how you know how do
you know that you’re really doing
something radical because you don’t you
can’t see where you’re going that’s how
you know but everything you have leant
on for your identity that’s gone and so
you are going to enter the the black
contemplative splendors of self-doubt at
the same time as you’re setting out on
this radical new path
and then see if you can put this across
people suddenly say wow amazing so here
are some of the steps along the path and
the amazing thing is is that the steps
are very precise
[Music]
being to me means seeing the greatness
and the uniqueness in you and never
letting anybody else convince you to the
contrary when people ask me come on
you’re always talking about being up and
you’re always positive and so on you
mean to tell me that you’re always that
way this is like really and it isn’t
because I’m out there doing something in
an artificial way it’s an authentic
response to my heaven having gotten the
junk out of me and the junk is the way
that I used to think the way that I used
to think
[Music]
Bucky fuller who I served with him The
Hunger Project Advisory Council for nine
years who died not too long ago said
that 99% of who you are you can’t touch
you can’t see you can’t go 99 percent of
you is untouchable on smellable
invisible it is what Ken Kaiser is
called your your conscious awareness
it’s your it’s what looks out behind
those eyeballs now if what you if 99
percent of who you are you can’t touch
and you can’t feel and you can’t smell
then where did what is it who is it
where are you what is this thing called
your essence or who you are and where
does it go who I am has been in many
many bodies already right and that
essence you see everything on our planet
that is alive can never die it can never
die life doesn’t die
it just transforms just moves on new
places in new ways being new anime and
the way of being that is the most
transcendent of all is this way it comes
from seeing yourself as love and only
having that to give away only having
that to give away
but what you do put out in the world is
exactly what’s coming back
and if you find things coming back to
you that you don’t like don’t understand
don’t ask yourself why these things are
coming to you ask yourself what you’re
doing to make them to collect and when
you start putting the responsibility on
your songs are seeing dramatic change
dramatic new way of being
instead of ethics instead of rules
effort a new another new way of being
instead of looking all your life for
achievements and externals
try living your life
nah
for the sake of knowledge being in a in
a context in which you don’t have to
collect a lot of merit badges you don’t
have to collect a lot of a lot of awards
and other people’s value judgment that
you go to school or you go out into the
world or you read or whatever you do
because it makes sense to you not
because what somebody else is going to
put on a transcript or where you’re
going to appear in a class list we need
to help our children to understand and
value the importance of knowledge for
the sake of knowledge and doing things
that make sense
rather than taking the easy way
[Music]
and I think there’s there’s something
really significant in that that you
don’t have to get it all planned out and
follow a certain pattern and do it a
certain way if you just sort of trust
your inner instincts and go with that
and live each moment the gold stuff
we’ll all take care of myself if you’re
sacrificing and pushing your life aside
and suffering on your way to trying to
get someplace you’ll never get there it
will always elude you because once you
get there you’ll just have to upgrade it
and that’s because that’s all you’ll
know nowness is that purest form of
sanity living in this moment and
enjoying it and all the rest of it will
sort of work its way out
[Music]
know thyself what Shakespeare said know
thyself
more you know yourself the more you the
more you become honest with yourself
honestly becomes just a way of life no I
don’t think the world necessarily does
but you can’t run your world you can’t
run your world based upon what the rest
of the people in the world want or don’t
want to me honesty is like it’s a karma
that goes out into the world how people
treat you in the world is their Karma
how you react is yours and what when you
react to it with dishonesty that’s what
you’re putting out into the world
dishonesty and when you put this
honestly out into the world that’s
what’s going to come back to you because
what goes out is what comes back at all
as you sow so shall you reap I mean it’s
it’s in every great institution that
there is in the world whether it’s a
religion or a philosophy or whatever
what you put out is what comes back
whatever you plant is what you’re going
to get back and the more that you put
out honesty just because it’s what you
are because you are being honesty you’re
not trying to be honest you were just
being honest t then that’s what will
come back to you
when it doesn’t just see that as another
test
means that you can find joy in every
moment that you have in your life
instead of being always looking for it
it means that while you are driving
along the countryside you know and
seeing instead of saying are but this is
I’m on my way to this point that you can
open your eyes and see it with new eyes
we see the rolling mouth see the grass
either deer see the skies you can just
stop wherever you are in this second
wherever you are and just look around
you and you can begin to appreciate just
your and your surroundings in your
environment then you can begin to
appreciate the people that are in your
life and even the ones that are negative
and you’re having the most difficulty
with you can practice a new way of being
with them which is sending them love
sending them flowers send them books
then undertake send them something and
just see what kind of reaction
super emotional health is just an
attitude an attitude is everything
forgiveness is the vital ingredient on
the path of enlightenment and if you
don’t know how to do it and practice
sending of love take the person or the
people that you’re having conflict with
any place in your life send them
something you don’t have to even do it
physically just send them something that
comes from inside and what’s inside is
how you choose to think and if you can
make that love and do that and that is
to me the test not whether you can love
someone when they smell good when they
do everything that you’re supposed to
but whether you can love someone who has
sent you hate or anguish in your life
and send it back you don’t have to
forget you don’t have to go back but you
got to get it out of you
is blocking you
you back
they are independent of the good opinion
of other people of the good opinion
independent of it they’re so busy
advancing confidently doing the things
that make sense and bringing success to
changing their baby’s diaper and
bringing success to weeding their garden
and bringing it to the job they bring it
on the airplane so that when they run
into somebody who is who is rude to them
a stewardess that is rude they don’t see
it as an attack on them it’s just where
they are and they send them love that’s
when you start coming back to us that’s
when that’s what enlightening one is
that’s what that’s the pathway to
enlightenment when you send out that
stuff that is destroying you is killing
you in one way or another and you move
yourself back over here and eventually
you get yourself all the way back this
is the light over here this is the place
where you can’t go back
