Starting point is 00:00:02 Why do we force so that we can learn to pick ourselves up? I miss more than 9,000 shots in my career. You're not going to score on every shot. Doesn't mean you shouldn't take the shots. Doesn't mean you shouldn't try to hit the goal. Ever tried. Ever failed. Like everyone else, you want to learn the way to win, but never to accept the way to lose.
Starting point is 00:00:34 I'm going to fail And you're going to fail I'm going to fail And you're going to fail And you're going to fail And you're going to fail And I will succeed And then you're going to win
Starting point is 00:00:45 26 times I've been trusted To take the game running shot And missed If you want to give up You can give up This is your choice I've failed over and over
Starting point is 00:00:58 And over again in my life Now the only place to go From failure And that is why Can I succeed? Is to win. You can't go back once you started this damn journey. You could only go forward.
Starting point is 00:01:16 Try again. Fail again. Fail better. What if I can become someone that no one thinks I can be? The hardest choices require the strongest wills. My brain, you cannot process fail. failure. You're a failure? That's almost worse than death. The number one reason why people underachieve and fail in life is because the fear of failure holds them back from ever trying.
Starting point is 00:01:53 The reason why people fear failure is they don't understand failure. They don't understand this critical point. If you can understand this point, it can turn your whole attitude around. It's simply this. Failure is 100% necessary for greatness. To achieve greatness, to have that success, you've got to fail as many times as possible. Remember, you can't move forward without having failures. It's just impossible. The truth is, whatever game you play in life, sometimes you're going to lose a point, a match, a season, a job.
Starting point is 00:02:31 It's a roller coaster with many ups and downs. And it's natural when you're down to doubt yourself. People should know that you never will be able to go life without failures. Failures make us learn, failures make you stronger, pain makes you stronger. You've got to decide, wait, wait. Even if I, things don't work out, even if I experience defeat a failure, that does not make me a failure. It's a difference between failing and being a failure. If you, if things don't work out, if you don't produce the results you want, that's all. But don't confuse who you are with the results that you're, you're
Starting point is 00:03:10 produce. My first nine businesses didn't really amount to anything. Nine. Nine. As in the first one, I spent time on it. Ficking failed. Second one. This one will be different. Ficking failed. And then the third one, this one, failed. And then six more after that. And it's painful as shit because the whole time everyone is telling you, I told you so. And they're right. Today. But not forever. part of success. Failure is essential to success. That if you avoid failing, you cannot succeed. It's not the critic who counts. It's not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done it better. The credit belongs to the person who's
Starting point is 00:04:03 actually in the arena. The person we really admire isn't only the person who wins, and it's because we're looking for something deeper. Whose face is marred with blood and sweat and dust, who So at the best in the end knows the triumph of high achievement and who at worst, if he fails, he fails daring greatly. We're looking for that, the manifestation of character that allows you to win across the set of possible games. No one has ever, ever achieved anything if they haven't faced failures, if they haven't had disappointments.
Starting point is 00:04:41 To achieve anything in life, you have to be prepared. to take on the odds. The flower that blooms an adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all. And then once you recognize that part of that monster or all that monster is you, that's when you can actually start fulfilling your dreams and living the life that you're meant to live. All of us, nobody's perfect. We failed too many times. We have so many uncertainty in our life.
Starting point is 00:05:24 we have to be capable when we are down to stand up it's it's part of the journey is part of the process it's part of our education in my case I'll learn the most when I'm down you might never fail on the scale I did but some failure in life is inevitable it is impossible to live without failing at something unless you live so cautiously that you might well not have lived at all, in which case you fail by default. You have to achieve failure. You have to take it that far.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Nobody wants to go that far. It's too scary. You know something? I got news for you. That's where winning is. I faced adversity. The true grades can conquer adversity. And that's what I said to myself every day in that camp.
Starting point is 00:06:21 The true grades control adversity. The moment of failure. and the atmosphere and the finality of it all in the audience. And I felt demoralized. I don't look at failure as failure. I look at failure as attempts at what I'm trying to accomplish. So what that means is this. You are just as tough as all the other people
Starting point is 00:06:50 that have endured what you aren't doing right now. So always stay in the fight. To accept defeat. to learn to die is to be liberated from it so when tomorrow comes you must free your ambitious mind and learn the art of dying you stop being you
Starting point is 00:07:15 you let people stick a finger in your face and tell you you're no good and when things got hard you started looking for something to blame like a big shadow let me tell you something you already know the world ain't all sunshine and rainbows It's a very mean and nasty place
Starting point is 00:07:34 And I don't care how tough you are It will beat you to your knees And keep you there permanently if you let it You, me or nobody Is going to hit as hard as life But it ain't about how hard you hit It's about how hard you can get hit And keep moving forward
Starting point is 00:07:50 How much you can take and keep moving forward That's how winning is done Wake up We have a moral burden to bear And that's the adventure of our life So, you got two choices. One, you get scared, you give up, and then you burn up. And the second one, or I can totally just sack it up and fail and fail until I succeed.
Starting point is 00:08:32 And you have not failed. What you've done is you've learned. And you're still alive. So get up. And go get after it. Thank you.
