WORK HARD AND BE PATIENT – Best Motivational Video for Success 2020

nobody you know has actually created
success without working their face off
if you think that you’re gonna go and
accomplish something really special and
be the best in anything in the world and
you think you can do it without working
you make a big mistake because no matter
what I did if it was a body building or
an acting or if it is in the political
arena it always took a lot a lot of work
and you got to put out and you got the
you know something to make a lot of
sacrifices notice if you know the girl
cards forget about it so there’s another
rule that is a very important work like
how I mean you just have to put in you
know 80 hour 80 100 hour weeks every
week yes I get up at crazy hours whether
it’s three o’clock in the morning by the
way when we’re talking in London I was
getting up at 3:00 because I had to be
on set by 7:00 so whatever time my call
time is so my call time is at 7:00 then
you back your clock up for hours and
then that’s when I get up and train
twice so cardio in and breakfast in I’ll
go hit the weights clanging and banging
we call it the only thing that I see
that is distinctly different about me is
I’m not afraid to die when a treadmill
I will run it would not be outworked I
will not be outworked period you know
you might have more talent than me you
might be smarter than me you might be
sexier than me but if we get on the
treadmill together right there’s two
things you’re getting off first or I’m
gonna die it’s such a simple basic
concept is
the the guy who is willing to hustle the
most is going to be the guy that just
gets that loose ball I always believed
that the the bridge between reality and
a dream is work and I always in moments
of despair and doubt and dark days focus
on on the work I show up and I work and
I work
the only thing that you can control that
influences success in life is how hard
you work how honest you are and how well
you deal with others you can control
those variables you can’t control how
lucky you are although the more you work
the luckier you get
you have no influence on the
intellectual capabilities that God did
or did not give you but you can work as
hard as possible you can be scrupulously
honest so that people respect you and
you can get along with others because
nobody does anything by themselves
[Music]
the other thing that you look at your
goals you look at your dreams repeat out
to be pleased I will fail my way to
success yes part of the reason why we
have to continue to work on ourselves
and surround ourselves with quality
people is because you and have a lot of
failures you can have a lot of
disappointments
Maya Angelou said it’s true our founder
in my case that most people go so far in
life and then they park they stop dead
in their tracks why because they take
some hits when you have a goal and dream
think it not strange that you face the
firing furnaces of this world you will
have tribulation things are going to
happen to you I was in pursuit of my
dream and all of us have one I got hit
a person that I thought I would be with
for the rest of my life I thought was my
soulmate I went through a divorce I was
embarrassed I was humiliated how can I
teach people how to live their dreams
and I wasn’t able to make my marriage
work I questioned myself I took another
hit my mother was diagnosed with breast
cancer then I was diagnosed with
prostate cancer then my best friend from
the second grade
Alexander Wims he was diagnosed with
cancer of the liver
I took a hint and life staggered me and
I talked and I didn’t turn on my
emergency lights because I didn’t want
to call attention to myself I didn’t
want anybody coming say hey do you need
a job no I don’t need a job I’m not out
of gas my battery is not dead my heart
is beating I’m parked leave me be I’m
parked was in my comfort zone I was
doing just enough to get by working on a
job they paid me just enough to keep me
from quitting and I work just hard
enough to keep from getting fired how
many know people like that blink your
eyes that you understand what I’m
talking about I was parked I knew I
could do more but when my mama died
took something out of me when I went
through a divorce it took something out
of me when and my best friend died it
took something out of me
iPod and somebody said that life is like
an onion you have to peel it one layer
at a time and sometimes you cry life’s
going to happen to you when you have a
dream you’re gonna get slapped around
and don’t take it personal don’t ask why
did this have to happen to me why not
you who would you suggest you want to
give us some name some email addresses
and don’t tell everybody 80% don’t care
and 20% glad is you it’s called life
suck it up and move on
get over it it happens to everybody
here’s the other thing is you look at
your goals and look at your dreams when
you’re going through some stuff repeat
out to be pleased when things go wrong
don’t go with them yes right they’re
down when things go wrong don’t go with
them when you’re working on a business
deal you’re counting on some money
someone said you will get the loan and
it falls through you have an event and
the people that you thought would be
there and support you they don’t come
through if someone turns against you or
you get ripped off it’s going to happen
to you happen to me someone stole all my
products my database over a hundred and
eighty thousand names and addresses it’s
not personal it’s gonna happen to
everybody it does eight out of ten
millionaires have been financially
bankrupt Walt Disney had seven he
profiled bankruptcies seven times and
had
two nervous breakdowns it’s called life
but I got a saying that life knocks you
down try and land on your back because
if you can look up you can get up you’ve
got the power in you to do that you’ve
got something special you’ve got come
back power here’s the other thing let us
say together it’s possible it’s
necessary it’s me yes write that down
it’s me take ownership for your life
nobody can live your dream for you but
you nobody’s gonna take care of your
business like you stop coming up with
excuses don’t give yourself permission
to continue to live a small life you
can’t fit a big dream into a small life
give yourself permission to go for it to
test yourself to challenge yourself to
live fool like the saying always strive
to get on top of life because it’s the
bottom that’s overcrowded the reason
you’re here is because there’s something
in you that says I can do more this just
can’t be it there’s something in you
there’s a calling on your life there’s
something in your heart that costs you
to get dressed and and spend the money
to go to the seminar after seminar
listen to message after message and
speaker after speaker because there’s
something in you that tells you this is
not it for you you have not peaked here
there’s more in you that you are
expressing eyes not seen ear is not her
nose enter to man heart of mankind
what’s in store for you if you challenge
yourself if you persist and persevere if
you take ownership for your life George
Bernard Shaw says the people that make
it in this life they look around for the
circumstances that they want and if they
can’t find them they create them create
what you want you have the power you to
do the more than you can ever begin to
imagine to control your destiny to make
a difference in our children to make a
difference on the planet to make an
impact
let us say together it’s me you let us
say together it’s hard said like you
know it’s it’s hard ladies and gentlemen
it’s hard they’re people who have seen
their retirements taken away from them
by the corporations that they work for
they were within two or three years of
retiring and they had it taken from them
the number one entrepreneurs in this
country now a senior citizens the number
one employer number two McDonald’s and
Walmart and there’s nothing wrong with
those jobs I guarantee you those people
did not have a plan to end up living
their lives at the end of life with
those types of jobs and they didn’t have
a plan like you have and why are you
investing in yourself not to and it’s
hard
they’re people making choices between
purchasing prescription drugs or paying
for gas or mortgage know it’s hard are
you working on a job for 20 years 30
years give them some good years and then
they come in and tell you we have
downsized in other ways other words
you’re fired and then you have to start
all over again how many of you know it’s
hard raise your hands please it’s hard
and it’s not fair one of the things I
like about tea harvest he talks about
work and investing in yourself it’s not
fair but people have gone up against
that kind of stuff to tell them just
faint positive and be enthusiastic and
everything will work out all right ain’t
that kind of party it’s hard life will
put some nuts on your head I bought my
first home for my mother I was rushing
didn’t know what I was doing and I
bought a home that had a lien against it
and they called me mr. Brown yes as a
lien against your property we need
$55,000 if you’re going to stay there

Brower come on I called my attorney we
followed up yes less there’s a lien

young man you’re gonna fail your way to
success you have nothing to be ashamed
keep your head up and take that
furniture back in the house I said yes

if you ever go through something hold
your head up if you ever make a mistake
hold your head up if you ever do
something that everything goes wrong
like catch you on the Blind Side hold
your head up it’s not over Goethe said
that which does not kill you will make
you stronger hold your head up shake
someone’s hand on your right and left
and say hold your head up here’s
something else ladies and gentlemen
repeat after me please you got to be
hungry everybody together you got to be
hungry
I’ll never forget mr. Washington said
mr. Brown yes sir what do you want to do
with your life young man I said sir I
want to be a duck disc jockey said Mr
Brown I said yes sir he said you got to
be hungry I said what do you mean by
that he said people that are hungry are
willing to do the things today others
won’t do in order to have the things
tomorrow others won’t have people that
are hungry are willing to invest in
themselves people that are hungry will
go to seminars and workshops people that
are hungry always searching always
seeking higher ground so how do you want
to make it I said I want to be a disc
jockey says good here’s what to do he
said I want you to read 10 to 15 pages
of something positive every day is that
you don’t get in life what you want you
get in life what you are
you must program yourself to success he
said once you listen to Earl Nightingale
and Zig Ziglar listen faith comes by
hearing and hearing and hearing he said
I want you to change your relationships
and I don’t want you to ever lose your
hunger I said what do you mean by that
he’s at people that are hungry
unstoppable
people that are hungry are no matter
what people they make it happen no
matter what is I want you to listen to
Paul Harvey who is he
he’s the world’s greatest communicator
success leaves Clues young man always
listened and follow people who are doing
what it is you want to do at the level
you want to do it and learn from them
until t-hub when we’re standing by the
stage and said hey man I want to work
more with you I want you to coach me I
want to learn from you self honor you’re
never too old to learn and you’re never
too young to teach always have a thirst
for learning so I listened to Paul
Harvey every day on the radio while in
school I would go out and listen in his
car he gave me his keys I was working to
develop myself and I continued to listen
to motivational messages and he would
take me to see The Late nor dr. Norman
Vincent Peale who wrote the book the
power of positive thinking I toured with
him before he passed you you have
something special
you have greatness within you don’t
allow your circumstances to determine
who you are
don’t allow your negative thoughts to
hold you back you you have something
special you can do more than you can
ever begin to imagine dr. Peale was an
incredible man I I admired he when he
spoke he gave me goose pimples I can
feel him and my heart and and I never
forget we were coming back to the school
and mr. Washington said mr. Brown yes
sir
when dr. fields spoke you didn’t move
and he spoke you were hanging on every
word he’d need when he spoke we didn’t
have to tell you to sit down and be
quiet why I said sir I could I could
feel him then he talked I felt like he
was talking to me sir he said he was I
said but he doesn’t know me but he was
speaking to you did you feel him in your
heart I said yes sir he said most people
feel him in their head if you felt him
in your heart he said listen to him son
follow him learn from him and I would go
to seminars and workshops anywhere I
would find where dr. Peale was I would
be in the audience
I’ve Drive two and three hundred miles
just to hear him speak and my dream and
vision was was to share the stage with
him I thought about it what is your goal
what is your vision I want you to hold
it in mind his some power in that
because when I became involved in
speaking I never forget I got a call
from augmentee know who wrote the book
the greatest salesman in the world he
said les I’m stuck in Philadelphia need
to be in Kankakee dr. Norman Vincent
Fields appearing I can’t make it heard
you’re in Chicago I said yes I am can
you go and open for me I said yes man oh
my god dr. Peale I said yes I’d love to
do it and I went there and I came by
said hi I’m I’m les brown and said
you’re not the Bandari now and I said no
I’m I’m mrs. Mamie Brown’s baby boy I’m
here to speak there’s a comeback stage
and his wife Martha was there and she
said Papa Les Brown is here the speaker
and he said that’s brown
Les Brown shoot for the moon because
even if you miss you’ll land among the
stars that’s it sir that’s my quote I
wrote you when I was in the 11th grade I
was a part of a special special
education class project that’s my quote
he said I know I in all my speeches with
that crowed
[Applause]
[Music]
and dr. diehl had a great sense of humor
young man was backstage and I had so
many questions to ask him and my mind
froze up and young guy said dr. peale
how old are you and he was up in age
he’s at Sonny I’m I’m 92 young man
looked at him said I don’t know if I
want to live to get 92 he says because
you’ve never been 91 so I did the things
that mr. Washington suggested I listen
to motivational tapes on a regular basis
I would go to seminars and workshops
whenever Zig Ziglar and dr. Denis
Waitley and Jim Rhon would come to town
and I said sir I said what do you want
me to do now he said mr. Brown I’ve
given you everything that I can give you
he said develop your mind put your money
where your mouth is continue to learn
how to be an effective communicator
because once you open your mouth you
tell the world who you are and always
surround yourself with oqp only quality
people
