I’M GOING TO WIN – Best Motivational Speech | MORNING MOTIVATION
do you really want to win mmm
do you really want to win right now I
want you to think about your goals and
dreams as you begin to raise them a
little higher and I want you to stay
with me it’s possible it’s possible
you ever thought about something you
wanted to do and you talked yourself out
of it there’s a proverb that says if
there’s no enemy within the enemy
outside and can do is go home that’s why
it’s important that you make it a point
every day to review these lessons to get
them deep not only in the conscious mind
but the subconscious mind and get them
in your spirit walk how often should I
do it do it until you are producing the
results
that’s how often you should do it and
and you never stop because once you stop
that’s when those negative thoughts will
come back once you stop that’s when you
will begin to doubt yourself once you
stop I’m telling you what I know
yes every day it’s a selling job on you
it’s possible I can do this I can make
this happen no matter how bad it is or
how bad it gets I’m going to make it
it’s possible yes your dream is possible
say that to yourself every day feed your
mind with words that you write in words
that you hear and words that you speak
to yourself feed your faith and your
doubts will starve to death
save yourself it’s possible it’s
possible it’s possible even when you
have no evidence to point to say to
yourself it’s possible there’s nothing
as powerful as a made-up what keeps you
on top is the ability to think and
prepare mentally over and over and over
again the body has limitations the mind
does not we focus so much on what goes
on from the neck down that we forget it
all starts from here
[Music]
you gotta write even if no one published
your book right because that was given
to you to do you do what it is you
supposed are you supposed to build
something you smoke weed something I
don’t know how to do it learn do
whatever is required just God there it’s
possible you can get what you are it’s
necessary if you want it you got to go
into action you got to be willing to
experiment you got to be willing to fail
and just succeed you’ve got to be
willing to form into develop new
relationships it’s you and telling you
you got to make that happen nobody’s
gonna bring it to you on a silver
platter set here’s your dream manifested
no it’s hard yes it’s hard it’s
difficult yes right and it’s worth it I
hear stuff all the time people say oh
look in the mirror and you’ll see why
you’re not succeeding I don’t believe
that
okay it’s what you don’t see in the
mirror that’s what’s holding you back
it’s what you’re not willing to see is
why talent is not enough and when you
when you finally see it and accept it
and decide to work on it then you can
take that next level
it’s no surprise that so many people
today have a great deal of uncertainty
about where life the world the economy
is going we’re going to massive changes
and some of them are unprecedented we
haven’t seen for 40 50 60 70 80 years
and yet at the same time we inherently
know that with all this change there’s
opportunity that there’s a chance for
our lives to be better than they’ve ever
been that transformations are happening
and science and technology can truly
change the quality of our lives the
length of our lives the way we
experience life and yet day to day most
people live I think with a great deal of
foreboding a great deal of uncertainty
and so I thought it might be nice to
just drop in for a couple of minutes and
give you a couple triggers to remind you
what I know you know in your heart and
that is we are not made to survive we’re
made to thrive human beings our spirit
our capacity to adapt our ability to
grow our them to learn with lightning
like speed our ability to find a way to
serve others that calling inside of us
that we have as a parent or as a friend
or someone who truly cares when we put
our fear aside because there’s something
we want to serve greater than ourselves
we all have that ability to find that
passion in our life and as we now are in
2014 a lot of people start out with a
new year and it becomes a trigger for
you know possibility of a new life but
that disappears after a few
disappointments after coming up with a
few New Year’s resolutions that within a
week or two they’ve already broken I’m
gonna talk to you about just the simple
core of what you and I are made for we
are not made to survive we’re not made
to manage our pain or get through it
we’re made to be creators of our lives
we can create anything anything we can
dream about we can create and I know
that sounds like positive thinking you
know just BS but in your soul there have
been times in your life I know when
you’ve had something that you wanted so
much maybe you wanted something for
someone you care about maybe you want
something for yourself but you became so
obsessed with something achieving it
experiencing whether it was a
transformation you know in yourself a
change in your business you know making
a certain amount of money getting a job
you know increase of some physician
increase maybe it was doing something
for your mom or your dad or your kids
somewhere in your life you got obsessed
enough to really want to create
something that
not even known how you were gonna do it
but you just wanted it desired it that
you started all of a sudden taking
action and you got insights and before
you knew it what used to be just this
impossible dream became a reality is it
fair to say that some stage in your life
that there are some things today in your
life there once just a dream or a goal
that once seemed difficult or impossible
whether it be the job you have or the
relationship you’re in and might be
taking for granted is it is there
anything in your life today that was
once like that well then you and I are
creators and very often when we get
overwhelmed by so many things we feel
out of control by we start getting to
being managers of our life managing our
pain managing through the situation so
my purpose here is to say what does it
take to thrive once again so let me give
you five quick keys number one key to
thriving is you’ve got to allow yourself
to be able to take advantage of
uncertainty yes the world is uncertain
right now uncertainty has changed
changes life we both know that we all
know that but if you and I are gonna
become masters we have to understand and
we have to work on change change is
automatic progress is not if you’re not
gonna make progress here in 2014
whatever stage of the year he’s looking
at this progress comes when you tell
yourself the truth and you’re able to
feel the uncertainty and take action
anyway the thing that stops us all is
fear it’s no surprise if you’re a
failure for your rejection fear the
unknown if you’re not looking good and
that fear we could translate into the
simple thing of uncertainty now when you
look at someone who’s incredibly
successful you look at someone who’s
truly a leader in their life or in their
field but one thing they have in common
is they exude this sense of certainty
towards I come from the inborn are they
lucky I think just going their way now
great leaders know how to step in the
uncertainty and bring the certainty to
the situation most people life we really
feel like the level of stress in our
life comes to how much of life do you
feel like you control how much does life
control you do you tend to control more
what’s going on or events controlling
you it’s very easy that those events
start to take control unless we take
control what’s between our ears our own
mind you see what you and I focus on
simply affects how we feel whether we’re
thriving or surviving if you focus on
what you can’t control
if you focus on the past if you focus on
what’s missing from your life constantly
that pattern of focus will make you
frustrated overwhelmed and depressed
it won’t even matter if you’re you know
taking antidepressants if you keep
focusing on what you can’t control
what’s missing from your life you’re
gonna feel depressed though you think as
many antidepressants as you want
focus equals power if you want to thrive
you got to focus on what you can control
you got to focus on the difference you
can make you’re gonna focus on what’s
already in your life that you’re
grateful for and I have a little process
here at the end that’s my gift to you
which is just a simple ritual that can
bring you back to this place so one
thing that leaders do is they focus on
the things they want they focus on what
they can control they focus on what they
have they have a combination of
gratitude strength and commitment they
really unleash the second element they
have a vision they have something that
they’re after something they want to
create something they want to contribute
something they want to give something
you want to make happen and that’s when
you become a creator again instead of a
manager of life and it’s easy to lose
that sense of vision in your life
through disappointments hey we’ve all
had them you get all excited about
something and then you know life seems
to crush it
somebody betrays you you betray yourself
you don’t follow through and then you
don’t trust yourself at the same level
what makes somebody a leader is they
build this certainty and not only with
focus and now we do they get a vision
for what they want but they bring that
certainty in their body listen if you’ve
ever been to one of my live events you
know that one of the greatest things
about let’s say unleash the power within
is you go through the weekend where you
literally train your nervous system
certainly I mean how the heck can you
get people to storm through fire it’s
not about fire walking it’s about
getting yourself to be able to take
action and the areas of your life that
normally you would more than hold back
or your brain would take over to say I
can’t do this are you crazy somebody
else did it but not me what we do is get
people in a state where you’re gonna
follow through we’re gonna face your
fear and do it anyway and the way we do
that besides changing people’s focus
showing you how to direct and control
that focus is also by learning how to
use your body as the tool to change your
state listen if I drop my shoulders
enough I were to breathe shallow enough
and I would
slow down and say you know I don’t know
I’ll give it a try and going to this
state
I’d be like Samson get his hair cut off
it’s because what we don’t realize is
that our mind is directly affected by
the way we use our body if you change
the tempo what you move you change the
way you breathe then you change the way
you use your voice you literally change
your biochemistry and the one thing that
you’ll see that’s the same with the
greatest golfer in the world or the
greatest musician or the greatest you
know actor is they have this sense of
certainty and it isn’t born it’s
something that you make as a habit you
drill it into yourself I sure as heck
didn’t have that sense of certainty
growing up not even close and what I
found myself doing early on is I felt so
uncertain I couldn’t get myself to do
anything so I developed these rituals
these rituals of certainty I would go on
these runs and on the run even though I
didn’t feel like it I would do these
incantations where I would say out loud
over and over again you know gods won’t
this circulate in my life his wealth
flows to me and avalanches of abundance
all my needs desires and goals are met
instantaneously by infinite intelligence
for I’m one with God and God is
everything and I would say that over and
over and over for 30 minutes just crazy
and I would envision that God circling
is well circling my life and I see the
wealth of love and friendship and impact
and growth and economics and all these
things physical fitness and aliveness
I’ve seen this wealth of abundance
flowing oceans of it into my life as I
went and did these things if you
envision something clearly enough and
you bring certainty to it over and over
again if you engage your physical body
in a simple ritual it could be as little
as 10 minutes a day
I call it my hour of power or 15 minutes
to be fulfilled and all you do is you
take five minutes and in those first
five minutes you get yourself moving and
you get yourself in a state of certainty
and the way you move and the way you
breathe you focus on what you’re excited
about in your life you focus on what you
want to create what you want to bring to
your children what you want to bring to
the world and it it changes your state
we all know what happens when you’re out
of state when you’re burnt out when
you’re frustrated when you’re
overwhelmed you snap at people sometimes
feel bad about it you didn’t mean to
it’s just a state you’re in
so to thrive this year take uncertainty
and bring certainty to it to thrive this
year get what I call a compelling future
pick anything a goal a dream and desire
something to excite you so much that
you’re gonna feel yourself compelled to
actually find a way to make it happen
you’ve done it before you’ve gotten
obsessed you know you know how you did
it but things happen and you’ve gotten
yourself to where you want to be let’s
make that happen this year right now
regardless of its later in the year the
beginning you’re watching this I made
this so that hopefully I’d remind you
what you know that you’re made to thrive
not survive what’s the third element
that makes somebody an effective leader
makes them a thriver evil in the
environment is crazy well they bring
certainty and uncertainty that’s that’s
leadership skill buy focus and
physiology by the way they move by the
way to breathe by what they do they
bring that certain because there’s
something they want so bad that it makes
them overcome the fear they focus on
what they want to create what they want
to give not oh my god what if I fail but
the third thing they do is they’re
decisive
listen nothing changes your life like
decision I mean real decision though not
Whoopie well you know I’ll try or I kind
of decided I want to give it a shot the
word decision comes some incision in
Latin to cut off from and when you make
a decision you cut off for any
possibility except the thing you’ve
committed to if I always tell people if
you want to take the island burn the
boats I mean if you make a real decision
every bit of you is committed to
something it’s amazing how life will
move for the force of nature of a human
being man or woman that says this is how
it will be I don’t know how I’m gonna
get it done
but I know this is what I’m gonna do I
know why I’m gonna do it as a Martin
Luther King you said it’s a man any man
hasn’t figured out what he’s willing to
die for isn’t fit to live if you can
find something you’re so excited about
if you can find something that will
drive you with that certainty and you
add to that decisiveness you can change
anything you don’t like your job change
it no but there’s no jobs out there pull
right change it start the job change who
you are in the job where you are and
enjoy yourself change your perception
change your appreciation change your
gratitude
change your daily
you’ll see start to enjoy things change
what you notice change from trying to
get something to try to give something
the whole game will change decisiveness
is the ability to make your decision
even though you’re uncertain once again
what keeps me will make a decision fear
of failure I remember I had a chance to
get to know general Norman Schwarzkopf
during the time which he was commanding
our forces an amazing man and he would
step over there in Desert Storm as they
called in those days and he could
command a guy that was just brilliant
you know an officer who came out of you
know Harvard or background of Princeton
and he could take a kid from the inner
city and just have that same command in
connection with him and I think part of
what they respected about him is he
respected every one himself he had this
connection with people but the other
thing everybody respected was the man
was decisive and I asked him where he
developed that decision-making
capability just the willingness to just
make a decision in trust he said Tony
I’ll tell you where I worked for this
general when I was very young and I was
his assistant and he said I remember
there was a research project that the
you know depending on had looked on for
that time he said if I remember right
like five years and there are arguments
it was a very strategic decision for
where the Defense Department was gonna
move towards in the future how they were
going to operate and he said there were
arguments for both sides and for five
years they’d gone back and forth and
nothing was resolved and they came to
the general that he was serving at that
time as the assistant and they had a
meeting and the meeting lasted one hour
and at the end of the hour the new
generals stood up and said do that and
he picked one of the two and he did it
with absolute certainty and in the
military you salute and you take your
orders and you go he said but swartz cop
said he was just curious really curious
to know you know how can get up and make
a decision like that because swartz cop
said I was the one doing all the
research and there was just there was
loads and loads of research and I know
he hadn’t read at all
they said it bothered me that he’d just
make a decision like that without
knowing everything he could possibly
know and so he said Swartz Goff said I
finally went to him and said sir
permission to express myself freely
he said
granted he said sir how could you make
that decision he said there are reams
and reams and reams of information you
got a one-hour meeting you heard what 20
minutes of discussion for both sides and
you decided the entire direction where
things are gonna go for their armed
services with it this part of the armed
services and he said how could you
possibly do that you don’t have all the
information he said no one does in fact
information is important to an extent
but ultimately action is what needs to
be taken
someone needs to decide how you know you
made the right decision he said no one
has made a decision young man in five
years a half a decade what I decided
will be right because either we’ll put
all our resources and we’ll make it
right
or if it’s wrong we’ll discover that
quicker than sitting on the fence with
another five years and we’ll find out
it’s not right it will change leadership
is making decisions if you’re gonna lead
your own life you got to make decisions
and what’s worse God says you realize
rule number one in life is when put in
charge from putting command take charge
make the decision if it’s right or wrong
you’re gonna find out quicker than if
you sit around and the interesting thing
is the more you make decisions the
better you get what makes somebody a
leader what makes somebody a leader is
they’re willing to make the decision
other people won’t make they want to put
themself on the line knowing that you’re
gonna be wrong and some of those
decisions but you’re gonna find out
quicker and you can simply adapt and
change your approach to still get where
you want to go be decisive don’t like
your body change it don’t like your
relationship change it start by changing
you if you’ve changed you it’s still not
right then change it but the way you
make any change happen starts with a
decision all action all results our
mother door fathered if you would by a
decision what’s one small decision it
could make right now that would take in
a direction you know you need to go
what’s a big decision that might be
really tough but if you really made it
truthfully it would take you on a new
direction in your life because whatever
direction you head into will lead to an
ultimate destination or destiny when you
know it’s right it’s time when you’re
still fearful it’s still time you want
to change your life decide decide
something you’re gonna do decide
something radical to commit an act that
moves you forward instead of thinking
more because we all can get caught up
you know I tell people you get in your
head you’re dead the brain is a great
thing
strategize with but there’s a point what
you got to get back in your heart and
you got to put yourself on the line and
do something so if you’re gonna thrive
this year bring certainty to your
decision-making by just putting yourself
in that state and trusting trust your
Creator not just a manager of life what
do you have to do get a vision for what
you want what else decide and step for
real quick act there is no such thing as
a decision without action a real
decision you kind of things off and you
make it happen you do something and I’ve
always found in my life never leave the
sight of making a decision that
something that’s important without doing
something in that moment that commits
you to follow through take some action
in that moment because otherwise here’s
what happened you get excited or
something makes sense to you you’re
passionate about it and you go I’m gonna
go do this and then you go home and get
caught up in emails and phone calls and
other people needing things from you
mixing you know you’re out of state you
don’t follow through has it happened to
you before I promise you if it hasn’t it
will in the future people that succeed
when opportunity is there they trust
they trust if I’m going to thrive this
is here in my wife for a purpose life
isn’t happening to me life is happening
for me even this pain or challenge or
this opportunity is something you’re
gonna find a way to make yourself I need
to make a decision and I need to do
something right now to move things
forward in the direction of what I
really want for my life even if I don’t
know the final destination I need to
move in that direction I need you take
some form of action most people they
have all these visions maybe they start
to make a little sort of decision but
they don’t make a real decision because
they don’t act on it and if you don’t
act on it your ideas your dreams will
die in your mind they’ll die in your
lips and think about most people in
North America around the world the
Western world are they truly fit strong
and healthy do they truly have a
relationship that’s totally passionate
do they love their work
are they economically free the vast
majority you and I both know the answer
is no if you want to be like most people
then what you gotta do is figure how to
survive if you want to lead you got to
thrive and you have that capability and
you’re probably already doing it I’m
probably speaking to the choir to some
extent if you’re still watching this
right now you have turned me off as a
raging maniac who’s on a rant because
that’s why I’m gonna win right now a
rant to call to your
so to say when our great life is take it
to the next level find the way to thrive
on the very things that stop other
people in the tracks thrive on what
produces fear inside you and and other
people thrive on something that you
envision that you have a higher purpose
for thrive by being decisive thrive by
taking massive action and if the massive
action doesn’t work what you try doesn’t
work just simply try something else and
if that doesn’t work try something else
that doesn’t work try something else
until you find what works
now you can speed that up try modeling
by finding somebody who’s already
getting the results that you want to get
in your life somebody already has lost
30 pounds and kept it off
they aren’t lucky it’s been five years
somebody who started with nothing and
now they’re financially free and their
family has an extraordinary called wife
why not figure out what they do somebody
who truly is happy not because
everything’s going their way because
they find a deeper meaning and a
richness in everything around themselves
whether it be their children or nature
or even problems because obviously if we
have no problems if you’re dead inside
problems can either destroy you or call
you to become more if you look at the
biggest challenges in your life if you
brought certainty to it if you better
vision beyond the problem if you made
some decision of what you’re gonna
change even if you know how and if you
took immediate action with enough
intensity massive action you probably
found the cure-all you probably found a
way to adapt and get where you want to
be
that’s what thriving is really all about
but the ultimate thriving is not just
breaking through and making things
happen the open thriving for this year
any year of your life is to remember the
secret to living is giving it’s too as
corny as that sounds it’s to connect to
something bigger than yourself and it
can be done so easily they can be doing
right there at home instead of running
past your kids looking at your phone
it’s stopping connecting it’s getting
kissing your spouse in a way where those
sparks happen like when you’re first met
instead of how you doing and moving on
most of us are moving so fast trying to
manage our lives that we’re not thriving
thriving comes with depth you’re not
gonna find thriving in a friendship that
happens in milliseconds online nothing
wrong with it’s great connection
but a depth of a real friendship does
not your Facebook friend it’s not the
same as being with somebody and actually
having a full attention not while you’re
monitoring what’s going on on your cell
phone just the experience of being with
somebody but contributing your caring
contributing your interest contributing
you know in a simple life finding some
way to give love attention care joy or
happiness to any human being it doesn’t
have to be working in a soup kitchen but
I could be pretty wonderful to
volunteering an hour in a month an hour
and a week can change a person’s life
but it can be outside world can also be
really on the inside world if you want
to thrive then you got a number life’s
not about me it’s about we you already
know it it’s in your soul you know that
doesn’t matter what words I say if I’m
saying something that’s BS you can feel
if I’m saying something’s true you can
feel at your heart and soul and the
thing that’s true is we’re here for more
than just ourselves and we feel most
alive when we’re doing something that’s
beyond ourselves when there’s something
well we think that by this interaction
someone’s gonna feel more loved
somebody’s gonna feel more lifted
someone who is down is gonna get up
someone’s gonna know that they’re cared
for or I’m gonna help somebody
physically through the skills ability
talent whatever helping a stranger or
helping someone you love help comes from
the place where you’re abundant you’re
not scarce so the most important time
the help is when you think you need it
so next time you’re really feeling down
and out maybe find somebody else who’s
much worse off because there’s always
somebody there if you look around and
see what you can do to help them and
watch what that does to change your
entire spirit psychology and state
you’ll find yourself thriving when you
step into a life of meaning beyond you
and ironically life is about you too and
when you’re in that thriving state of
growing and giving in that state of
certainty and that state of a vision of
what you want with a sense of purpose in
that state of decisiveness and that
state of action and that state of giving
oh how can you break a loose and you’re
still gonna thrive oh how could you
break a loose and you’re having a great
time so next time you feel an uncertain
remind yourself you’re a creator of life
not a manager of circumstances
and I hope there’s some trigger to
remind you that also want to help you
have this is not just this video that
you watched here which maybe watch it
it’ll be helpful maybe not it’s up to
you but if you get the heart of what I’m
really sharing it leads to the end
understanding that we are really our
lives are reflection of our rituals you
know if somebody tells me this is their
dream this is their goal I said that’s a
wonderful tell me your plan but more
importantly let me see your rituals and
we all have rituals what they know
they’re not rituals equal results if
you’re overweight it’s because your
rituals just find out what they are and
change them your rituals are to get up
every morning and go to Starbucks and
have a mocha smoker or whatever the hell
it is you have you know and bunch of
carbs and who everyone knows what it’s
not hard to figure out your blood sugar
is gonna be dropping and you’re looking
for how to coffee a few hours later that
does a great life of energy that’s on
fire that creates a place where you’re
riding the roller coaster of how much
energy you have for now there’s an
unlimited level of energy with a
different ritual when you start out your
day doing what I call really my hour
power of my 15 minutes to be fulfilled
so the three or four days a week five
days a week it took five or ten or
fifteen minutes one every now and then
you’ll get so much momentum he’ll give
yourself an hour an hour for yourself an
hour to connect to what matters most and
Howard to be grateful an hour to get
strong working out at least 15 minutes
I’m gonna tell you they’ll frame your
life in a different level and you’ll
find yourself thriving so take a look
what rituals you have that don’t work
and what might be some new rituals like
instead of focusing what you don’t have
being truly grateful for what you do
have instead of focusing on what you
can’t control
think what you can do right now to
participate in your own rescue not
waiting for someone else to do it
rituals define us and so my hope is
maybe these five things to thrive can
trigger you to get in a state where you
create some new rituals as if they will
create the habits and the experiences of
the life that you desire and that you
deserve so that’s my rant I hope it
touched you if it didn’t I apologize
because my intent is pure blessings to
you and I hope I have a chance to serve
and see you soon maybe at an event or
somewhere else in the world and Live
Strong and live with passion
