Starting point is 00:00:00 From Adams Morgan to Anacostia Park, we all want safer neighborhoods. But what does real safety mean? Real safety means preventing crime before it happens. By having police work with communities to disrupt cycles of violence, by supporting families with stable housing, and providing more mental health and drug treatment. We know that adding more police and locking up more people doesn't make us safer. Real safety means investing in the things that help prevent crime.

I can't tell you, but your goal's going to tell you how much sleep do you need? You might not need to get up at 3 o'clock in the morning for your goals. I don't know, but your goals are going to define what time you get up, how you live your life, how you move, when you say yes, when you say no.

And I'm telling you, If you average, you're going to be forgotten. If you're good, you're going to be forgotten. Nobody's going to remember you. Listen to me, you've got to get away. You've got to run from average like a plague. And then when you get to good, you've got to make up in your mind that good is only
Starting point is 00:05:35 to going to going to be for a few moments. It's just a platform. You're going to get out of good. You're going to go to great. And then you're going to be like, your boy, man, for real. I'm trying to transition. I'm trying to transition. I'm trying to go through break.

Stop asking people to sponsor your dream, to make your goal become a reality, to babysit your child, to rear up yoke that what was birthing you to take care of it.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Hey, listen to me, stop begging. Invest in yourself. I'm going to tell you something, if you invest in yourself, what you will discover that other people will invest in you. But I'm telling you, ain't nothing going to change if you can't see it. So I ask you a question. What do you want? And I ask you, what do you want?
Starting point is 00:06:24 Because the days you don't feel like getting up out the bed, the days you feel like quitting, giving up, and give it in. Listen to me, the only thing that's going to get you up out of that bed, the only thing that's going to make you strive past that obstacle, get past that brick wall, and it's coming. The only thing that's going to make you get up and do what you're supposed to do is what you see. You've got some special inside it.
Starting point is 00:06:48 You're not only a special person created a, special time you have something special in you and this is the year when you do special things all right so this is the year to do the impossible I need you to drive possible what do I mean when I say drive possible I mean okay let me get an example right you got a tree right if you hit a tree I'm talking about a big oak tree if you hit an oak tree a thousand times and a thousand different spots what's going to happen absolutely nothing but if you hit an oak tree a thousand times in the exact same spot you know what's going to happen you're going to bring it down you're going to do the impossible so what i need you to do for me monday i need you do the possible
