How amazing it is to be able to rise up in the morning and have that sun shine on your face rather than on your grave. What makes life so unique and so beautiful?
Starting point is 00:01:33 It is beautiful because whatever you have that you may be facing, what you may be dealing with, life is still good. Life has so many moving parts. But life is always good. Every day is a new day and another opportunity
Starting point is 00:02:02 that others may not have. This life that you have been given, this life that you are temporarily holding on to, this life that has been just given to you for only temporary reasons, has more meaning than you can ever imagine. So many people in the world take life for granted instead of realizing that you have to take the opportunity to live it the best way you know how. Now on this journey of life you're going to face a significant amount of circumstances
Starting point is 00:02:50 a significant amount of challenges you're going to fall into areas that you cannot understand and maybe it's not in the position for you to understand at that moment when you start to feel that you are in a position that you don't love your life then shame on you
Starting point is 00:03:15 because your life is a beautiful thing and no one deserves to ruin it no one deserves to control it no one deserves to ruin it. No one deserves to control it. No one deserves to steal your joy. Your life is your life. And you have the right to live it the best way you can. You must discipline yourself. And take full control and responsibility.
Starting point is 00:03:49 For the outcome. Or whatever it is that you are seeking at this moment. I see millions of motivational speakers that speak to the rich, that speak to the successful. I said, who speaks to the broken? Who speaks to the individuals that's still in the process? Who speaks to the individuals that doesn't want to live anymore? Every motivational speech you ever heard, I was talking to myself and I was telling my story. I couldn't read till I was 16. I buried my mother to a heroin overdose.
Starting point is 00:04:42 My father was a hit man. I used to sneak in crack houses to sleep next to my mom to make sure she was safe at night. But through all the chaos and all the pain,
Starting point is 00:05:03 God built a warrior. So when y'all see King Hollis, and every time I drop a speech, I'm dropping it for you. That person that want to give up on his life, I'm dropping it for you. That person that don't know that they have greatness inside of them, I'm dropping this for you. See, the difference between a good player and a great player. See that good player does just the minimum to get by. That great player pushes his body
Starting point is 00:05:45 past the limit. He leaves every single drop of blood on the field. And whatever he does in life, he wants to be
Starting point is 00:06:04 remembered as the greatest. in life. He wants to be remembered as the greatest. He does that extra 10 when a coach only asks for 20. He runs that extra mile
Starting point is 00:06:23 when a coach only asks for 5. He runs that extra mile. When the coach only asked for five. See, he knows. He's going to have to dig deep inside his soul. To bring out. That king. To bring out that king to bring out that legend to bring out
Starting point is 00:06:55 that power that lays in every single one of us but we won't go deep enough to get it. We're not going to be good. We're going to be great. The things you're about to hear are the powerful inner thoughts going on inside the mind of a champion.
Starting point is 00:07:32 I was born a champion. I was raised a champion. I got champion in my bloodline. I've always been a champion. I will always be a champion. And when I close my eyes and die, I will be a champion. On my headstone, they will write champion. Every time they mention my name, they will say champion.
Starting point is 00:07:55 My legacy is champion. My obituary will read champion. Every time they mention my name, they will say champion. Because I am a champion Every day that I get up I say good morning champion When I look in the mirror I see a champion
Starting point is 00:08:11 When I go to the gym I work out like a champion When I eat I eat like a champion And the stuff I read Makes me an even better champion The stuff I put in my mind Is champion
Starting point is 00:08:24 Cause all day I am a champion. I pray. I think. I speak. I walk like a champion. No loss. No setback. No mistake.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Whatever changed that. I'm a conqueror. Born to succeed. anointed to prosper, blessed and unstoppable. And I will arise out of the ashes because my God will not fail me because I am always have been and always will be a champion. Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world. I can do all things because with God, all things are possible. And I am a champion doing the impossible. Failure is not an option. I refuse to concede because I'm a champion when I bleed. My blood is champion. And anything
Starting point is 00:09:21 that stands in my way, I will go through it, over it, around it, because I am a champion. Nothing can stop me. Blessed and unstoppable. I am the undefeated, undisputed, never beaten, champion of the world. The world says I'm a loser. I get up every day and go to war with that statement. They think I'm lazy. I'm hungrier than ever.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Beast mode. I'm eating all competition. The devil says I've got no money. Money comes to me easily, frequently, and abundantly in God's perfect way. The world says I'm crazy. The world belongs to the bold. They remind me of the losses I've taken. They say I'll never recover i serve
Starting point is 00:10:06 the god of restoration i will make a comeback they say you can't pay your bills with dreams success will come off the assembly line of my mind they only have average talent hard work and discipline are the great equalizer why don't you get a nine to five a normal job that pays every week because i'm the head and not the tail, above not below. I was strategically designed for greatness. It looks like your God has forgotten you. My God will never leave me nor forsake me. You really believe all that stuff you're saying?
Starting point is 00:10:37 Destiny is obligated by universal law to concede to the demands of unwavering faith. And I believe. so long to concede to the demands of unwavering faith and i believe i'm a champion committed hungry dedicated fearless bold never wavering full of faith anointed prosperous strong Strong, righteous, focused, disciplined, willing to do whatever it takes to be a champion. I will arise one day and make a fool out of all those who doubt in me. I will live with no fear. I will boldly attack the things that scare me. They will not stop me or my destiny. No health issues, no job issues, no financial issues, no relationship issues. Nothing shall stand in the way of my divine calling because
Starting point is 00:11:34 I am a champion. I was born a champion, raised a champion, have always been a champion, will always be a champion. My legacy is champion. And when it's all said and done on my headstone, they will write champion. Some of you don't even realize you have unfinished business. You need to go back where you left off with a new perspective. Go back to the gym. Go back to the drawing board. Go back to the business. Go back to the relationship. Go back to the burning building. You have unfinished business.
Starting point is 00:12:15 All you got to do is show up with a new game plan and a new perspective. You got to finish business. You have unfinished business. You got work to do perspective is everything let's go I need you to hear me loud and clear how you see this thing is everything
Starting point is 00:12:38 you cannot change the past but you can change your perspective about it. You got to see this thing differently. Stop complaining about the divorce. Stop complaining about the job loss. Stop complaining about the relocation. Your viewpoint is your advantage.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Thank you for breaking up with me. Here's what you did. You opened up another opportunity for somebody else to come into my life. Thank you for firing me. Here's what you did. You opened up another opportunity for somebody else to come into my life. Thank you for firing me. You gave me an opportunity to explore entrepreneurship. I'm not bitter, I'm better. Perspective is what changes the game.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Everybody. My freshman year, I don't play a lick. And before I knew it, I lost my mindset again. I began to recalibrate. You know, everybody done played in the NBA. I'll graduate in four years. You know what? I just go get a good job. It's okay.
Starting point is 00:13:41 It's okay. And the end of my freshman year, my daddy called me on the phone. He asked me a question. He said, son, you're not playing. Why not? Politics, dad. It's political. My father asked me a question. He says, how did your coach get paid, son?
Starting point is 00:13:58 I said, dad, he gets paid to win. He says, okay, son, if your coach gets paid to win, won't he play the players that give him the best chance to win? He said, son, you got recruited. You took all your visits. You chose Minnesota. You took the time and you chose Minnesota. You told me that you're going to turn that program around. You told me you're going to graduate in four years. You told me you're going to make more money in business than you did in sports.
Starting point is 00:14:24 One of the core values of our training and development called family was accountability. That was the core value of that training and development organization called the Bond Family Accountability. He said, so go back and do what you said you're going to do.
Starting point is 00:14:42 My father reminded me of what I said I was going to do. I went back to my coach's office. I said, coach, what do I need to do to play in the NBA? He looked confused. This is what I told him. I'm going to become somebody different. What do I need to do to play in the NBA? I'm taking this thing to the next level. We're about to rise up. So for you to be passionate, your logic and your emotions need to be intertwined. See, some of you guys have the intellect
Starting point is 00:15:11 and some of you guys have the passion, but you have to have both to be successful in this business. Sharks are hunters and predators. They never stop swimming. In fact, if a shark stops swimming, it will die. If a shark goes backwards, it will die. Think like a shark, act like a shark, and behave like a shark.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Can I ask you a question right now? Can I ask you a real question? Not your neighbor, I'm talking to you. What kind of student are you right now in life? You're in charge of your promotion. If you do five million and want to get to ten, you're in charge. In order for you to rise up, you better take your game to the next level. Your mindset
Starting point is 00:15:48 needs to go to the next level. Your information needs to go to the next level. Your relationships need to go to the next level. Take your money and get information and access and you will get good habits and good rituals and you will go to the next level. Coach, what do I need to do to play in the NBA? He said you can't run, you can't
Starting point is 00:16:04 jump, you can't dribble, you can't shoot, and you can't rebound, son. Next year, I'll be your most improved player. I'm going to think, I'm going to execute, and I'm going to win. I'm going to think, I'm going to execute, and I'm going to win. I'm going to execute
Starting point is 00:16:22 what I've been trained to do. I'm connected to a shark. I'm going to win. I'm going to execute what I've been trained to do. I'm connected to a shark. I'm connected to the greatest training organization in the world. And when I get home, I'm going to become somebody different. What do I need to do? You need to have an honest self-assessment about what your weaknesses are. And that's how you get to the next level. My sophomore year rolls around.
Starting point is 00:16:45 We go all the way to the Sweet 16. and I'm the top six man in the country. I go back to my coach. What do I need to do to play in the NBA? The list got shorter. The next year, we went all the way to the Elite Eight. We were one shot away from the Final Four, and I was the top six man in the country. I carved out a niche. And that's what impact players do.
Starting point is 00:17:06 They make their community better. They make their city better. They make their town better. They make realtors better. Be an impact player and anyone in your life, if they need a shark, you become their shark. Being broke is a mindset. That's something that you put inside your head. That's something that you put inside your head. That's something that you tell yourself every single day. I literally started from the side of a Turkey Hill gas station.
Starting point is 00:17:34 And all I did was ask someone, could you give me an opportunity to go into your studio? Could you give me an opportunity to walk into this place every single day and create my motivation? The time didn't take long. It was only two to three minutes and I'll finish a speech and I'll give it out because many of you guys don't know.
Starting point is 00:17:53 I do not write speeches. Everything I do is from the heart. So what I did was I truly believed that I have something special to give this world. And I want you to know that you have something special to give this world. And I want you to know that you have something special to give this world. Don't, don't ever believe that the lack of funds is the reason why you're not being successful. This is not true. The lack of belief is why you're not successful. Every single human being on this earth is a walking million dollar check. And our belief in ourself,
Starting point is 00:18:32 our grind, our true grit to wake up every single day and tell ourself and tell the world that I will be something special is what separates you from everyone else. I learned that when I stopped being envious of people and stopped judging people and stopped being angry that I'm not on their level is when I truly started to elevate in my career. I said, I told myself, I will never take a dollar bill from another person. I will never sell my dream and my gift to anyone for any dollar amount. Don't you ever do that. And every morning you wake up and you look in the mirror, I want you to look in that mirror and I want you to tell yourself that I am special. I am great and I want you to tell yourself that I am special, I am great, and I am phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Nobody will stop me for reaching my goal. My goal, my individual goal, is to become one of the best speakers of all time. But I know I have so much work to do. While they sleep, I must work. While they party, I must grind. While they procrastinate, I must go after my future with a relentless effort. And I want you guys to grow to be successful with me. I don't want to just be successful by myself. I want my message to grow other people and make other people successful. That's what life is truly about. It's about picking great individuals and taking them with you.
Starting point is 00:20:20 We got to make this decision in our life today, kids and queens, that we will not be ordinary. We will be great. We will be kings. This life is about serving and giving and being true. We live in a world where people believe everybody is out to get you. But I'm telling you now, some people is just out to love you. So for the rest of my career and the rest of my life, I want you to look at William Hollis as your brother, your family, because we are. It doesn't matter what color you are.
Starting point is 00:21:02 It doesn't matter where you came from. The only thing that matters is who loves you now. Growing up in the projects of Pontiac, Michigan, I realized two things. I realized that I won't make it if I believe that this is my reality for the rest of my life. And two, I had to realize that all the knowledge and my gifts were already placed inside of me at birth. All I have to do is fine tune. All I have to do is keep working on this craft
Starting point is 00:21:42 every single day. And I can be successful. When I sat on the side of that Turkey Hill gas station, I realized that no one would believe in me. No one. No one will say, William Hollis, one day your speeches will be played all around the world. No one. And I realized that pain was necessary.
Starting point is 00:22:12 I realized that without my belief, I cannot go to the next level. And I want you guys to know every piece of motivation I give you, I'm talking to myself. The world just happens to you. Let's become legendary. Let's not focus on who don't see anything in us. Let's focus on everything that does. You are filthy rich. You were born rich.
Starting point is 00:22:46 We're going to forget about the generational lack. We're going to forget about the people who left us. And we're going to focus on the people who love us. We're going to focus on the people who believe in us. Because you have greatness inside of you. You have an everlasting potential and as long as you have a heartbeat, as long as you have
Starting point is 00:23:10 air in your lungs, you have an opportunity to change this world, change your life, and live your dream today. You are not broke You are filthy rich You were born rich We will be royal forever
Starting point is 00:23:37 Remember the time When you wanted more. Remember the time when there were people in your life that did not believe in you. Remember the time when you honestly gave up on the possibilities of the uniqueness that you had inside. Remember that was a time that you complained so much but yet did so little. There comes to a point in your life that you must recognize that there's a little bit more
Starting point is 00:24:26 that has to be done than just complaining about it. You have to realize that you don't have any other opportunities waiting for you if you're not willing to work for the first opportunity that has been given to you. You don't have a lot of time left, so there's no reason to complain. You're not even in a position to complain.
Starting point is 00:24:56 You have to figure out that there has to be another idea about you, and you have to understand that there has to be something even greater and more challenging waiting for you. And if you're not willing to step outside of your comfort zone, if you're not willing to understand the principles and the possibilities
Starting point is 00:25:18 that you have within yourself, then everything that you are thriving for, everything that you are hungry for will soon come to an end. Now, I'm not here to preach to you about this. I'm here to let you know that there are things that are going on around you right now that are far greater than your complaining. You complaining about so much, but yet you show no action.
Starting point is 00:25:56 If you could trade places with someone right now, and the person that you are trading places with may have it just a little bit tougher than you have it going on in your life right now. So many people are suffering from so many things in this world at this moment. But yet you're complaining. So many people in this world right now wish they could trade places with you. But yet you're still complaining. You don't have that right to just give up. You don't have that right to just throw in the towel and say that it's over for you. Ladies and gentlemen, you got to understand that the reason that you are existing in this world right now is because you have things that must be done and only certain people are qualified
Starting point is 00:26:57 to take it to the level that it needs to be taken to. For there should never be a limitation to wherever it is that you are seeking and how far you are willing to travel and how far you are willing to go. Sometimes people tend to get a little lazy. Sometimes people like to put themselves in this little bitty box
Starting point is 00:27:23 and just say that they are okay with where they are. There can never just be an okay to anything when it comes to that life. There should never just be a complacent mindset. How do we evolve? How do you evolve? How do you evolve? How do you grow? One thing about success, there are going to be many struggles.
Starting point is 00:27:54 There are going to be many challenges. And there are going to be a lot of things that you may not even understand. But you got to go back to where it started. Remember when you wanted more. Because you cannot satisfy your hunger with negative energy. Being negative doesn't help you to grow. Being doubtful doesn't give you the power that you need. You have to come to a point in your life
Starting point is 00:28:33 that you must realize that there are things that are going on that is testing you. And maybe you may be in a position where you feel that you are broken or you're feeling that you're going to be broken. But I'm here to let you know, ladies and gentlemen,
Starting point is 00:28:54 that you are built to last. I'm here to let you know that you don't have the right to complain anymore. I'm here to let you know that you got to keep on living and living on strong. I dare you
Starting point is 00:29:16 to take a trip to your local hospital. And if you have an opportunity to walk down those corridors and witness so many different people different age groups different ethnicities
Starting point is 00:29:38 and each one of these individuals are fighting something they're dealing with some type of sickness. And some of these sicknesses they may not be able to recover from. I dare you to walk down a neighborhood
Starting point is 00:29:54 where there are many people that are homeless and have no place to go. No food to eat. Barely even have clothes on their backs. I dare you to realize that maybe you just don't have it so bad after all. Maybe it's time for you to realize and recognize that your troubles are not that bad. Maybe it's time that you realize that you need to get away from the drama that's in your life. Maybe it's time for you to stop
Starting point is 00:30:34 chasing misery and start chasing your dreams. Reconnect with yourself because this is not the time for you to be wasting putting yourself back instead of pushing yourself forward ladies and gentlemen you have so much so much to offer so much to give
Starting point is 00:31:03 so much to offer. So much to give. So much to do. But doing it. And sitting around waiting for it to happen. It's just going to stay in neutral. You have to electrify the desire that you have. That you once had. So the next time you feel like complaining, you feel like worrying,
Starting point is 00:31:39 and you're so concerned about other things that doesn't necessarily concern you, ask yourself, is it making you better is it taking you higher are you going further or are you just being complacent complacent and complaining and worrying and doing things that are not better for you are you going to realize that maybe just going up that mountain.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Does take a little bit more work. Than just having something handed to you. Are you going to be that person that realized that if and when you get to the top of the mountain. It don't just stop there. You got to figure out another way to go even higher. You have to electrify and get all the things that are necessary within you to start doing the things that you need to do.
Starting point is 00:32:36 So when the time comes, you can kick down that door and move towards the possibilities of being the best of who you really are. Don't lose yourself. And the things that's not going to give you the strength and the capacity of understanding that you matter for something. Don't lose yourself in fear. Don't lose yourself. In fear.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Don't lose yourself in doubt. Dare yourself to be better. Dare yourself to be unique. Dare yourself to be the best possibility. That the world. Has yet to see. Everybody wants increase and abundance and lifestyle change and new zip codes and new area codes. But you only read once a week. And you only work out once or twice
Starting point is 00:33:46 a month. And so the reason why you don't have what it is that you see, the reason why what's in your head is not in your hands. It's not your reality. It's because your perspective opposes your potential. You don't have it because you don't see the value in it if you believe you've been called to be the difference maker the game changer the disrupter the person that comes into a room and commands the atmosphere if you believe you've been called to be necessary and not grossly irrelevant, then everything you do, everything you see, everything rises and falls on your perspective, your perception, your viewpoint. How do you see this thing? What happens when your perspective, your perception diametrically opposes your reality, if you are going to give and grow and evolve and attain and become, everything rises and falls on your viewpoint.
Starting point is 00:34:57 Show me somebody that hates to work out. And I'll show you a man that almost lost his life and the doctor said if you don't work out you'll die one season as cumbersome one season as a problem another one season as a privilege he sees it as his second chance his new lease on life that I have to work out I get to work out I get a chance to live a little longer so one person sees the gym as a prison and another person sees the gym as a passport. One man came within inches of losing his life and another man has never come
Starting point is 00:35:33 within a hundred miles of losing his life. And he only walks out twice a month and somebody else walks out four or five times a week. The reason why you only do it once or twice a month is because you don't see the value. Your viewpoint is either your advantage or your assassin. Your viewpoint will either get you going or get you killed. We see a storm, we see rain, and we think depression.
Starting point is 00:36:02 We think I can't do anything. Instead of thinking grass can't grow without rain roses don't bloom without rain number one there's one thing i need you to stop saying and that is i should do something that perspective that viewpoint that ideology, that philosophy, that mindset is going to get you bankrupt. I should start this. I should stop that. I should forgive. I should. You don't get what you should.
Starting point is 00:36:37 You get what you must have. I must work out X amount of times a week. I must forgive. I must evolve. I must become. I must retain. I must work out X amount of times a week. I must forgive. I must evolve. I must become. I must retain. I must grow. I must live.
Starting point is 00:36:51 I must evolve. I must go to the next level. I must live in this type of house. I must drive this type of car. I don't care how bad you think the shoes are that you are wearing. There is another man in this world who would kill to walk a mile in the pair that you wear. Marcus, what does this mean? This means that what you are complaining about, what you hate, what you can't stand, what you want to
Starting point is 00:37:16 walk out of, what you want to give up on, there is somebody out there that would die to be in your position. And so here's what I need you to ask yourself. Is this problem an issue or is it an opportunity? Some of you, all you've been waiting for your whole life was an opportunity. What if losing your job was the opportunity? What if the divorce is an opportunity? What if the bankruptcy is an opportunity? What if the bankruptcy is an opportunity? What if the one you love was an opportunity for you to reconnect with somebody and forgive them? I need you to see the bigger picture. I need you to have a little gratitude.
Starting point is 00:37:59 You need to learn how to smile. You need to work out. I know you hate the gym. I know you hate to lift weights. I know you hate cardio. I know you don hate to lift weights. I know you hate cardio. I know you don't like drinking water. I know you don't like taking care of your temple. You think it's the hardest thing to do in the world to commit.
Starting point is 00:38:15 But there is somebody who's in the grave today. And if they had another opportunity to live, they would enthusiastically with great confidence and courage and consistency do what you hate just to live a little longer. Find the positive. See the bigger picture. Guard your gratitude. The trial, the tribulation, the adversity, the giant is not your assassin.
Starting point is 00:38:38 The giant is your opportunity. Are you going to complain in the face of conflict? Or are you going to complain in the face of conflict or are you going to seize the opportunity? I don't care what it is that you're trying to achieve, what you're trying to accomplish, what you're trying to give,
Starting point is 00:38:58 how you're trying to evolve, what you are looking to become, everything rises and falls on your perspective. Stop complaining about the jealousy and the envy and the backbiting and the person that gave up on you and the person that wasn't present and the person that lied to you
Starting point is 00:39:21 and the person that attempted to manipulate and control. I'm not weary. I'm wiser. I'm not toxic. I'm triumphant. I see this thing differently. This season that you've entered into did not come to break you. It came to build you.
Starting point is 00:39:43 And to the man or woman God has destined you to be. Change your perspective. There's a reason why they say, see the light at the end of the tunnel. If you don't see that light you're gonna lose your mind you will lose yourself you will snap in half if you don't see past this the challenge for many of us is that we got to see past our present pain and into the fruitfulness of the future. The right perspective makes the impossible possible. You cannot change the past but you can always change your perspective. No problem can be solved
Starting point is 00:40:40 from the same level of consciousness they created. The severity of your problems is a matter of perspective. Change your perspective, and most of them become insignificant. Some of them will no longer exist as problems, but opportunities. The right perspective is the instrument you need, the tool you need. It's a discipline. It's an advantage. If you change the way you look at things, then the things that you see will change. Knowledge, a speech, a motivational moment will not sustain you unless you put it into perspective.
Starting point is 00:41:25 How will you see the rest of your day? Because how you see the rest of your day will oftentimes determine the way you see the rest of your life. Shift your perspective. If you can change your perspective, you can change the future. Many of you listening to me right now, you have unfinished business and you need to go back to that dream, back to that idea. You have a date with destiny. You have unfinished
Starting point is 00:41:52 business. It's time for you to go back to the drawing board with a new perspective. It's your viewpoint. And watch this. Your perspective actually shapes your language and your language shapes your world. And so if you don't start thinking right, you're not going to talk right. And if you're not talking right, you're not going to experience the world that you see in your head. I don't know who God has called you to become, but what I can tell you is if you keep seeing it the way you have seen it, you will never become it. Everybody wants next level. Everybody wants wealth and influence and everybody wants to be this esoteric novelty. But listen to me, you will never experience any of this showing up in your next season with the same viewpoint.
Starting point is 00:42:47 The right perspective makes the impossible possible. Life is so short. Life only has only a little time. Although it will continue to go on, you cannot hold on
Starting point is 00:43:16 and think that every day is promised to you. We have all experienced great losses in our life. We have all felt that pain of losing a loved one, someone that we cared about. But yet we're still here. And now we must go on. But what is the example that we're going to leave? What kind of leadership and what kind of leadership qualities do we have? How do we go on?
Starting point is 00:43:57 How do we lead the next generation? Hate is not going to make it work being afraid to be truthful to who you are will only limit who you truly are inside don't let anyone take that away from you don't let anyone take away who from you don't let anyone take away who you are how true you are and what you matter in this world to so many other people
Starting point is 00:44:31 don't be afraid to be honest don't be afraid to be truthful don't be afraid. To be different. Even being different can be difficult to a lot of people. But I guarantee you this. There's nobody in the world. That can do you. When the time comes, what would you leave behind?
Starting point is 00:45:18 What legacy will be left behind to remind others of your greatness, of your losses, of your this is a short life that we all have. And it's not easy. It's not easy living it every day. It's not easy to go through so many different circumstances, so many different challenges. It's not easy getting that pink slip,
Starting point is 00:46:11 knowing that this may be your last day on your job. It's not easy knowing that you may lose your home because you got laid off your job. This type of pain and these different circumstances, many people are always going to come back and say, well, that's life.
Starting point is 00:46:43 We cannot blame life. It is not life that makes these challenges what they are today. It is the purpose. And purpose never lies. It will always tell you the truth. But while you exist in this world right now,
Starting point is 00:47:08 I need you to hold on. I need you to hold on strong and don't give up. I need you to believe in every possibility that you have and understand that it is not over for you. I need you to understand life is always going to be good. But always keep in mind sooner or later
Starting point is 00:47:37 we all got to punch that clock. So carry on. And don't give up. And don't give in. And do the best that you can. To have the right attitude. To make your existence matter. Your existence.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Is not by accident. Your existence. Has so much meaning. Are you ready to take on the unknown? Are you prepared for it? You can't even understand. In most cases. How beautiful it is.
Starting point is 00:48:43 Sometimes to not even know what's coming your way. Sometimes it's not necessary to know everything. Sometimes it's not necessary to understand everything. But are you ready? Are you ready to embrace the fact? That someday. Life as you know it, life as I know it, will soon come to an end? Now, what are you going to do about what you're doing with the life that you have right now. See, I talk about life because life is such a great thing.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Life is such a beautiful thing. Life has so much university to it. It is unexplained to some people. It is unimaginable to some people. Sometimes you may even ask yourself, I don't even deserve this life. Sometimes you may even ask yourself, why am I suffering so much from this
Starting point is 00:49:55 and that person over there is not suffering as much as I am. Ladies and gentlemen, life, your existence is temporary. It won't last forever. And if you're sitting around wasting it, you're sitting around being hateful. You're sitting around being jealous, if you're letting things outside of your circle control your possibilities, your uniqueness, your qualities, your principles, who you really
Starting point is 00:50:38 are inside, then what's going to happen next? There will come a time when you leave this world and they're going to put you in that hole. And guess what, ladies and gentlemen? No one is going to jump in that hole with you. No one is going to jump in there with you and celebrate that death that you just experienced. Yes, I know it may sound a little harsh.
Starting point is 00:51:04 In fact, it may even scare you but you can't fake this you can't hide from this life is short and the only thing that's beautiful about it is that when you're living you have strong possibilities you have something that you can be doing
Starting point is 00:51:25 to make it impactful for others to see. You can't stop. You can't stop living. You can't stop growing. You can't stop fighting. You have to understand that yesterday and today
Starting point is 00:51:49 and tomorrow are in three different universes and the only universe you exist in right now is the now is this moment is this reality you can't fix anything that's already men and time. And some things are better off left alone.
Starting point is 00:52:31 There are a lot of negative people right now that exist in this world. And there are people that are going to watch this video. There are people that are watching this video right now. There are people that are listening to this message right now. And yet,
Starting point is 00:52:49 they'll still find something that is not making them happy. You must make peace within your heart. You must make peace within your heart. You must make peace within your spirit. Life is so short. Do not let misery control the life that you have. Do not let anyone tell you how to live it. Do not let anyone validate
Starting point is 00:53:28 your purpose. Do not let anyone validate your destiny. Someone told you a long time ago that you wasn't worthy. Someone looked you in the eye and said you wasn't going to make it. I say to you right now that you will make it. I say to you right now that you will make it. I say to you right now that you must make it. I say to you right now that you must tell excuses, fear, and doubt that it has no place in your place of business. For this is your life that you are fighting for. This is your life that you are living for. And make no mistake. No one is going to do you better than you.
Starting point is 00:54:14 Don't wait for something to happen. You make it happen. You make it happen for a reason. And take full responsibility and control of this thing we call life. Wake up every single day thinking about how can I change my life? How can I stand on the stage with the Giants? I realized that everything I ever dreamed of lives in the sky
Starting point is 00:54:56 and I must jump every single day to go reclaim what's mine. And that's royalty. As long as you believe in that very gift that you have in the bottom of your stomach, that fire that burns, that dream that wakes you up in the middle of the night and have you screaming to the sun,
Starting point is 00:55:17 why? So I can go after this dream. That is the very thing that you should chase every single day is you versus you your dream versus your world you're gonna have to be phenomenal in everything you do because everyone in the world is chasing greatness and what do you do when a man is going 100 miles per hour and you haven't even started the engine yet. Embrace being the invisible that they say cannot do. The best gifts come from the bottom.
Starting point is 00:55:52 They will not see you coming as you rise, as you work every single day, tirelessly, for what you dream of. Now, if you turn your back on me, I promise I'm going to make you turn around. You will call me king. You will call me king. We got to make this decision in our life today, kings and queens, that we will not be ordinary.
Starting point is 00:56:23 We will be great. You have an everlasting potential. And as long as you have a heartbeat, as long as you have inner in your lungs, you have an opportunity to change this world, change your life, and live your dream today.
Starting point is 00:56:41 We will be kings. I know what it feels like to be broken. I know what it feels like to be homeless. I know what it feels like to be ignored. You get into a place where you feel like nobody needs you. Nobody believes you. I know what it feels like for people to tell you to write the book, watch the course, and then when you do it, nobody invests in it. The hour is now for game changers to emerge.
Starting point is 00:57:29 For the forgotten. For the rejected. For the ignored. To come out of the ashes and into the light. Out of obscurity and into victory. Take the throne with everything that you have in you. The hour is now. I am coming for the throne.
Starting point is 00:57:52 I am coming for every room that you lock me out of. Every realm that I step into, I will dominate. I am determined to win no matter what season I'm in. When you counted me out, when you rejected me, when you overlooked me, when you ignored me, I waited painfully in obscurity for the opportunity to take the throne.
Starting point is 00:58:20 I am your replacement. Your rejection has forged a new fire inside of me. Man, I'm climbing the ladder. I'm bringing my team. I'm coming for magazines and movie screens, billboards and awards, movie scores and labels. I'm signing checks and contracts on every table. I'm no longer stuck in the basement, stuck in the gutter. I'm leaving the casket. You saved me, vacant. You were here, my feet walk in the pavement. No more complacent, driven, persistent, and relentless are all an understatement.
Starting point is 00:59:06 Who am I? I'm sorry, not sorry. I am unapologetically your replacement. I have worked while you have slept. I have learned while you have partied. I have saved while you have spent. And I will live like you dream. I am relentless. I am resilient. I will not back down. I will not surrender. I am now an agent of change and transformation. I am your replacement.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Every room that I walk in, I will change the game. I'm influencing neighborhoods and towns, startups and corporations, from the forgotten about hoods to the nations. I'm coming to reconstruct and resurrect broken foundations, leaving everybody that rejected me out of the equation. The marathon continues. The lava mentality has left a mark. Shout out to the NBA legend, Kobe, and your daughter, Gigi. From Tom Brady to Drew Bledsoe, rain, sleep, or snow, I grind. I am the difference maker.
Starting point is 01:00:32 I am the game changer. Make this moment the moment of truth about yourself. Many of you have been selling yourself short all of your life. You have the opportunity to experience more environmental, physical, and mental abundance. Someone who is in a constant state of elevation, their self-talk is, I know who I am, I know where I'm going, and I know where I came from. I want to continue the conversation of self-awareness. You know, there are a few quotes that I love and want to share with you as it pertains to the conversation of self-awareness. And the quote is, there is definitely a direct connection between finding your passion and reaching your potential.
Starting point is 01:01:34 You will never fulfill your destiny doing work you despise. Passion gives you an advantage over others because one person with passion is greater than 99 who have only an interest. Passion gives you energy. Are you aware of what you are doing with your day-to-day time, your grind? Do you like your current relationships? Do you like your circle of influence? Do you like your wardrobe?
Starting point is 01:02:02 I think a lot of us, we are programmed to hold on to things that we no longer like the time is now to step into a place of diligence hustle humility and hunger the future belongs to the hungry the humble hustler. These are those that will take the throne. There is a new breed of Mamba mentality game changers. That in every room that they step in, they are agents of transformation. They are 30,000 feet above the noise. They are architects, pioneers, innovators, students, athletes, lawyers, doctors, are sounding the alarm that a new mentality will emerge inside of you.
Starting point is 01:02:55 Elevated people know who they are. They know what they believe, the role in life they are presently filling, their great personal potential. When you are self-aware, you need to be extremely cognizant of your evolution and the fact that you're going to change, the fact that you're not going to be the same person you are. It's a very dangerous thing to be in a place where you are growing, but your life is not. You're still connected to people and places that you've outgrown. It's a very dangerous thing to be in a place like that because you end up dwarfing everybody and everything in your life.
Starting point is 01:03:44 Do you like what you're doing and do you like where you're going? Let me ask you another question. What would you like to do? If you don't like what you're doing and you don't like where you are and you don't like your relationships and you don't like X, Y, or Z, what do you want? What do you like? And then you've got to be able to add passion to it to activate that thing and make that dream a reality.
Starting point is 01:04:06 Are you fully aware of the bridges that are required to cross over to make your dream a reality? I think a lot of people, they have this vision in their head, this dream, but they don't know how to make it a reality. We navigate through life and we keep missing the bridges to bridge the gap between dream and reality. So do you know what is required of you? Are you aware of what is required of you to make happen what you see only in your head? I wanna give you another quote.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Almost every man wastes part of his life in attempts to display qualities which he does not possess. I want you to ask yourself the question, are you the person that is projecting a different you to the world on social media, on your websites, in your meetings? Are you projecting a different you? Are you the same person in private? And I know that there are multiple versions of yourself,
Starting point is 01:05:03 or even I have multiple versions of me, but are they consistent? I want to ask you the question. Are you aware of your why? Are you aware of your why? So now that you've discovered, OK, I'm not doing what I want to do and I need to learn how to do what I want to do. And I need to figure out the bridge to bridge the gap between the dream and the reality. Do you know why you want to do what you actually want to do? What is your why? Because if the why is great enough, if you're aware of that why, then you can begin to back that why up with work ethic.
Starting point is 01:05:37 Every why's got to be backed up by work. You want to be committed? You want to be consistent? You want to be creative? You want to be consistent. You want to be creative. You want to be purposeful. You want to be reflective and you want to be grateful. These are just a few things that you want gap between who you are, what you want, and where you want to be. There's a massive gap. Awareness and the acceptance of that awareness is the bridge to the future. This is going to connect you to your destiny tribe. Your destiny tribe comes with multiple types of people. What would you like to do? What do you believe you've been destined to do? What talents, skills,
Starting point is 01:06:34 giftings, and abilities do you possess to support your desire to do it? What are your motives for wanting to do it? Why do you want to become what you are looking to become? What steps are you taking to become and to live the life, to make the dream a reality? When you have awareness and you have your actions, but you have no accountability, you set yourself up for a great fall. Let me ask you a question. What price are you willing to pay to make the dream a reality? How aware are you?
Starting point is 01:07:10 Are you aware of the price that you are willing to pay relationally, emotionally, physically, mentally, spiritually? There is a price to pay to manifest a dream. You know, two of the greatest moments in an individual's life is the day they were born
Starting point is 01:07:28 and the day that they realized why they were born. Are you aware of your why? Why are you here? What are you doing? Who are you connected to? What are your people, your places, and your purpose?
