CUT THE EXCUSES – Powerful Motivational Speech for Success in Life
never accept the life that’s being given
to you if it’s something that you never
liked I need you to change it never
accept the life that’s been given to you
if you think that it’ll never become who
you are meant to be you don’t have to
accept the life that’s been given to you
so if you want to change it you can
actually change it you don’t have to
accept the life that’s been given to you
when nobody wants to support you and
they’re not standing up and clapping or
they’re not hitting a share button or a
like button or a heart or they’re not
motivating you to become better or
they’re not pushing you to become better
I’m telling you right now you do not
have to accept the life that’s being
given to you because I didn’t
[Music]
you’re looking at a kid right now that
I’m a published author I don’t know what
a published author look like to you but
I never accepted the life that was given
to me why am I telling you that because
listen to me they counted me out and the
people that counted me out they couldn’t
count so I’m telling you that you never
have to accept the life that’s being
given to you I’m a father
I’m a husband I’m a speaker on my altar
on my entrepreneur and I did this with
no blueprint and I did this with
straight wheel indetermination because I
understood that listen in order for me
to leave a legacy there were some things
that I had to change there were some
things that I needed to become I had to
cut out the excuses so I’m telling you
right now in order for you to be
successful in life I need you to cut out
the excuses I need you to end it all no
matter what it may look like I need you
to stop it right now
because if you continue to come up with
excuses through life you’ll never get to
the level that you need to and you’ll
always stay in your comfort zone it’s a
beautiful place but nothing grows there
and you got to take advantage of the
opportunity in this lifetime because if
you never take advantage of the
opportunity you’ll continue to make
excuses you’ll continue to be who people
always said that you would be so I need
you to block out the haters I need you
to block out the lies I need you to
block out the people that don’t support
you I need you to block it all out no
matter what it may look like because
understand this God gave you the vision
he didn’t give it to them
so when they don’t see your vision I
need you to understand that listen he
gave it to me so I’m locked in and I’m
focused no matter what it may look like
no matter what you may say no matter
what type of opposition that comes my
way I need you to understand this
understand that no matter what it is and
then what level or whatever level you
may get to in life understand your
purpose and understand that he gave you
the vision so I need you to walk it out
because we know if it was easy everybody
would do it
but it’s not easy understanding your
purpose it’s not easy walking out your
purpose it’s not easy being successful
it’s not easy being entrepreneur it’s
not easy being married it’s not easy
being a father it’s not easy to be who
you are meant to become and you think
that don’t nobody understand what you’re
going through or you think they can’t
nobody feel your pain but what do you do
you’re supposed to harp on it are you
supposed to cry are you supposed to make
excuses no you’re supposed to sit right
here and get down on your grind and stay
locked in and stay focused no matter
what it may look like no matter what
they may do no matter what they may say
because I’m telling you right now it is
me and you against the world no matter
what we may face no matter what comes
our way no matter what they say no
matter what they do we can get it out
the mud and we will become who we were
meant to become because all we know is
all we know is how to hustle so it makes
you appreciate it a little bit more I
get my motivation from my kids I get my
motivation from the people in the
community I get my motivation from the
people that’s going through pain and
they quote the things that I say like
those are the real trophies for me I
don’t care about none of the money I
don’t care about the accolades I care
about the impact and they said that none
of this would be possible
they said that none of this could happen
because I wasn’t from that side of the
track I wasn’t from that side where they
provided me with a silver spoon in my
mouth I wasn’t from that side where I
grew up in a two-parent household I
wasn’t from that side where you had much
support or love so the things that I
didn’t have I made sure that I became
those things because I said the
negativity stops with me
I looked opposition did in its face and
I told our position that you’ll never be
able to get my kids
I looked opposition in its face and I
said you’ll never be able to get my
company so I’m telling you right now you
never have to accept the life that’s
being given to you because I didn’t so
I’m challenging you right now listen to
me very closely I’m challenging you
right now that you do not have to accept
the life that’s being given to you
anytime you face opposition any time you
face any obstacle anytime there’s a
hurdle in your way listen you can jump
the hurdle it may not move but you can
jump through it and if you can’t jump
then go around it anytime you face any
type of opposition I’m telling you right
now the person that’s on the inside of
you needs to come out because the person
is the person that’s on the inside of
you is bigger than any type of our
position that you face I could’ve gave
up when my brother died I could’ve gave
up when my cousin died I could’ve gave
up when I lost my job I could’ve gave up
when they told me Logan you’ll never be
anything in life I could’ve gave up when
nobody wanted to clap for me and told me
Logan you will make it happen and so I
never made excuses but I always made a
grind for it I always understood that
there’s a person out there right now
that’s successful in life and hey they
put a pants on one leg at a time just
like I do
because we all got the same 24 hours the
problem is is do you know how to
maximize it do you know how to use it
because people that’s not successful
they don’t maximize their 24 hours they
sit on they behind they sit on a but
they stay all on social media they sit
right here and judge you because you’re
making it happen and they tell you that
you can’t become anything or you’ll
never be anything or that you think you
are that or they think that you will
never be able to be who you need to be
so I’m telling you right now you don’t
have to accept the life that’s being
given to you but what I do want you to
do is I want you to put one foot in
front of the other I want you to stay
locked in I want you to stay focused
there were people that were before you
that fought for you to have the
opportunity that you have right now
because they didn’t accept the life that
was given to them so why should you
today is the day that you become who you
are destined to be today is the day that
you become the person that people said
you would never be today is the day that
you find your purpose and you start to
project yourself forward as you become
the person that you were destined to be
today is the day that come hell or high
water you’ll come out swinging because
your back is against the wall and you
have no other choice but to move forward
you see I’m telling you that because
that was the day that I found my purpose
that was the day that I found my calling
today is the day that you jump over the
hurdle and that you choose to not allow
fear to paralyze
because now is the time now is the
opportunity for you to turn your dreams
into a reality like never before because
you can only do this there isn’t anybody
else that can do it you can but you
gotta believe in yourself do you have
the ability to believe in yourself like
never before
do you have the ability to have the
humility that when all the stars and all
the things that are lined in your favour
can you be humble enough to step up to
the challenge and not let the screams
and the cheers get the best of you why
am I telling you this I’m telling you
this because don’t let it get to you
because there’s gonna be family and
friends that are not gonna support you
they’re gonna be family and friends
they’re gonna tell you that you cannot
turn your dreams into reality they’re
gonna be family and friends that they
believe that listen if I just hang on
your coattail just for enough time or if
I just hang on your coattail long enough
that you will make it and I can always
say that you will do it but I never
believed in you from the beginning you
see I’m talking to somebody because I
got it out the mud and I understand what
it feels like I understand what it feels
like to have those people that are
two-faced it I understand what it feels
like to have those people that tell you
you can’t turn your dreams into a
reality I also understand that you have
those people that are rooting for you
and I know that it’s far and in between
and that you may have more negative
people in your ear more than you have
the positive people but I’m standing
here to tell you that it gets better I’m
standing here to tell you that you can
turn your dreams into a reality I’m
standing here to tell you that you can
make it happen I’m standing here to tell
you that you must believe in yourself
because how you see yourself is how the
world gonna treat you and so if you see
yourself as a piece of gum on the bottom
of a shoe then you can’t complain and
get mad when
nobody believes in you because see
there’s somebody right now that’s
looking for what you have there is
somebody right now that is warning the
words of encouragement that you have to
say but because you’re too scared to
speak life into that person they’ll
never get it you see I had to understand
that in order for me to go to another
level in life in order for me to do what
I’m doing now I had to believe in myself
I had to believe in myself I had to stay
consistent
I had to block out the noise I had to
block out the people that hated on me I
had to block out the people that always
had something negative to say so what am
I challenging you with right now I’m
challenging you with to believe in
yourself I’m challenging you with
staying consistent and last but not
least I’m challenging you to fight it
out no matter what why be normal when
you can be extraordinary
