so today I’ll be speaking about a story
of a kid this kid was a regular kid who
had only one goal in life to become a
champion like the ones you see on
television he wanted to be one of those
that participate in the Olympic Games
and at the World Cup in his mind it
didn’t matter in which sport he just
wanted to become a champion and so he
started training daily he practiced
pentathlon football and running among
others
winning many many trophies more than his
shelves could fit until one day that day
the day in which the doctor told him
that his knee pain was actually a
serious injury to his meniscus that kid
was me and at the time I was faced with
an important decision to make what to do
next I had the idea to focus all my
energies on education I would graduate
earn a PhD and start my career and so I
did for the most part I tried to but my
plan utterly failed when it came to
studies I was a procrastinator
unmotivated and troublemaker within a
few months I was faced yet again with
another decision what’s next after in it
an intense discussion with my parents I
had decided I would drop out of high
school to pursue my dreams and fulfill
my potential but my father had a
different opinion so off I went
and became a winery worker the glamorous
life of a whiner worker working six days
a week from sunrise till sunset in the
hardest-working job I’ve ever did
physically I was 200 kilometers away
from my parents and my mother would cry
every single night as her worst
nightmare was coming through her son was
a failure after being fired from my job
I found that they gave me an opportunity
to work in a steel factory as a welder
and later as a waiter in a pizzeria
until I stopped and realized I had to
plug in the vision I had to critically
think about my future as this path was
clearly not working for me
after analyzing myself for days I came
to the conclusion that I was a 16 year
old with no money no paper to prove or
show and capabilities that other people
would recognize the only two referrals I
had were from the owner of a winery that
thought I was lazy and a guy that fired
me for lack of motivation speaking six
languages I decided I had to aim higher
and I started working for the second
largest translation company in the world
which led me to move to Australia and
later to the UK at that point I was
seven years 17 years old I was driven
and focused but I wanted more so an idea
slowly started to take shape in my mind
I wanted to open my own company and
become an entrepreneur from what I heard
entrepreneurship was about wealth
unlimited vacation and interesting
meetings my first two businesses failed
I was depressed and tired
nothing was going my way where was my
luck why everybody was moving forward
while I was stuck in this moment I
recognized it with my father
and with an open heart conversation he
cleared all my doubts about
entrepreneurship life and fulfilment
being an accomplished entrepreneur and a
recognized publisher in Italy he knew
how much discipline it takes to run a
successful business not having a
relationship with him for so long felt
like he wasn’t my dad anymore but soon
we developed a strong bond and became
best friends our relationship was so
unique that we decided to become
business partners and finally also my
mother was happy for the past 10 8 years
I’ve been an entrepreneur launching
successful businesses consulting for
companies and being the on the board of
directors of several ventures and I
think that just like any one of you I’m
a human nothing extraordinary about me
I’m not the brightest I’m not the most
handsome or had incredible resources to
start my businesses what I learned is
that whatever is blocking you in life is
a lie you have to realize and accept
that all the excuses you’re making are
lies lies you think you are too young
you think you are too old
those are all lies you think that you
don’t have enough time that’s also a lie
you think you don’t have enough
resources to fund your business to buy
your house to do whatever you want in
life all these are lies whatever you set
your mind to you are able to achieve you
need to suffocate all the lies in your
life don’t believe the lies believe the
truth you have plenty of time resources
you don’t need them and nobody is too
busy for what matters
all lies will stop if you don’t make
them stop
none of the lies will stop so you need
to enforce your power and stop these
lies in your life excuses are fabricated
and the only way to stop is for you to
take action and start achieving what you
put and set your mind to stop thinking
about the one thing that can change and
unlock all your human potential that’s a
lie
stop believing the people that try to
sell you that one thing they’re liars
it’s not one thing it’s not ten thing
it’s not 100 things all it takes is
patience self-awareness and a lot of
discipline it’s not a secret sauce it’s
not a hack it’s not a trick all it takes
is open for life and work hard and don’t
be surprised if when you’re dedicated
focused and discipline you achieve
amazing things in your life if searching
the one thing doesn’t lead you to one
thing to your thing it’s because the
answer is extremely easy but it’s not
easy to implement it and it’s all about
discipline you can use small tricks to
help you but taking a cold shower will
not change your life sharing your goals
will not make them instantly possible or
magically happen keeping a journal or
waking up early won’t fix your life
suffocate the lies suffocate the lies
and be disciplined step up your game the
truth will set you free free from
procrastination lack of motivation and
excuses your success starts when you do
success doesn’t just come and find you
success you need to go out and take it
get it touch it fill it
learn about success just like training
if you don’t train
day-in day-out eat healthy and because
sistent you will never see results
meditation will not get you there
neither a miracle drug organic
supplement or a superfood and this
applies in all aspects of life business
and relationships but most importantly
keep your heart free from hate your mind
free from worry live simply expect
little and give a lot scatter sunshine
forget self think of others happiness is
the most valuable asset on earth spend
time with your family and share memories
with your friends this is my idea worth
sharing never quit work hard now and
live the rest of your life as a champion
