although we know that life is short.
Like the many people in this world,
they didn't realize that the next day
they was going to be diagnosed with a cancer.
They thought that tomorrow was going to be waiting for them
and they did not wake up.
But you are still living.
Now what do you have to do?
How are you going to move forward?
How are you going to proceed your life?
Life is not a game.
Life is living.
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 and your place of business
For this is your life that you are fighting for
This is your life that you are living for
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
I need you to believe in every
possibility that you have and understand that it is not over for you. And maybe you may be in a
position where you feel that you are broken or you're feeling that you are going to be broken.
But I'm here to let you know, ladies and gentlemen, 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.
You had to experience some things.
That you did not understand.
You had to experience some greatness.
You had to experience some weaknesses.
You had to experience things.
That no one could understand.
But you are the one that has to be responsible to go through it. You were put on your back
and you probably thought that you didn't have the ability to come back. But today,
dawn is coming. The sun is going to rise
and you will see the light
within you.
Don't you give up on life
because once your life is over
you can't come back.
Leave your mark.
Help someone.
Lift someone up when they're down.
Be the strength for others when they're weak.
And maybe when you're at the weakest point in your life,
someone will lift you up.
Because we all struggle.
No one is immune to it.
It is necessary that you struggle.
It is necessary that you feel alone. It is necessary that you struggle. It is necessary that you feel alone.
It is necessary that you have to continue to go forward. Nothing can stop this because that light
has already been there. That light is embedded in you. That light exists in you. What about the
other people out here who can't walk? What about the people out here who can't walk?
What about the people out there who can't talk?
What about the people out there
that are suffering from diseases
that cannot be cured from?
What about you?
What are you going to do about the life you have?
How are you going to live?
How far are you going to go?
Run with greatness.
Run with a full heart.
You got to be willing to sacrifice.
You got to be willing to hurt.
You got to be willing to yell out.
Whatever it takes, keep pushing forward.
Your life is your life.
And you have the right to live it the best way you can.
Yes, it hurts sometimes.
When you feel alone.
It hurts sometimes when you're in that dark place and you feel no one cares about you.
The first thing you got to realize is that you got to love yourself.
It's about self-love.
Start understanding that if you're going to do something with your life,
you got to fall in love with yourself again.
You got to stop self-hating yourself.
Do something that's going to make you a better person.
Make an impact in this world.
Don't look at it as though it's something that you got to do temporary.
Although we know that life is short.
Like many people in this world, they didn't realize that the next day they was going to be diagnosed with a cancer.
They thought that tomorrow was going to be waiting for them and they did not wake up.
But you are still living.
Now, what do you have to do?
How are you going to move forward?
How are you going to proceed your life?
Life is not a game.
Life is living.
There's the good and there's the bad.
And there's definitely the right now.
You can't wait for somebody else to make your life better.
You got to make your life better. You got to make your life better.
You got to focus on you.
Now, I'm not saying forget the rest of the people,
but I'm telling you to get rid of the things
that are not making you strong,
that are not making you better,
that are not making you efficient,
that's not putting you in a better place,
that's not giving you the strength that you need to keep living the life that you have been given.
Don't you give up on life, because once your life is over, you can't come back.
Leave your mark.
Help someone.
Lift someone up when they're down.
Be the strength for others when they're weak.
And maybe when you're at the weakest point in your life,
someone will lift you up.
Because we all struggle.
No one is immune to it.
So keep fighting for it.
Don't give up.
Live, breathe, life, you.
That's what it's about.
It's gonna hurt.
Sometimes it's gonna get tough. But when it it's going to get tough.
But when it gets tough, you get tough.
Just make sure you make your mark.
Make sure you make your mark in this world.
Because somebody didn't make it today.
But you did.
Keep living.
Keep living strong.
Don't give up.
It is not about worrying about what's going to happen tomorrow,
because guess what?
Tomorrow doesn't owe you or me anything.
As a matter of fact, tomorrow has already made up its mind.
You have this moment.
You can't worry about yesterday because yesterday is not coming back to look for you.
Whatever you had the chance to do yesterday won't come
back.
But you have this moment.
You have
this chance to do
something great with
this life that you have been given.
You
may have been through a lot
in your life. You may have been through a lot in your life.
You may have been through hell in your life,
but hell doesn't own you.
Hell did not create you.
Life has been given to you from a higher power.
Something that you need to understand that no matter who you are in this world that we live in today,
everyone must struggle.
Everyone must suffer.
But everybody that is going through something always has a story to tell.
Most people that are successful right now had to go through something to get what they got to this day.
Some people are not even willing to hurt and to feel that so that they get what it is that they want.
But let's go beyond that.
What about the other people out here who can't walk?
What about the people out there who can't talk?
What about the people out there that are suffering from diseases that cannot be cured from?
What about you?
What about you?
What are you going to do about the life you have
how are you gonna live how far are you gonna go
do you feel sorry for yourself because you're having a bad day do you feel sorry for yourself
because you lost your job do you feel sorry for yourself because you just feel like you're just not having the day that you want to have?
Because the day that you have is not the way you want it to go?
Or do you feel that you deserve a pat on your back?
Because you did a good thing.
We all got a responsibility. We all got to be accountable. We all got a responsibility.
We all got to be accountable.
We all got to put in work.
But don't give up.
Because there's somebody out there right now that is hurting.
There's somebody out there right now that is struggling.
There's somebody out there right now that's got it a little bit tougher than you do.
So why are you going to give up now?
Anything that comes your way, you got to be prepared to accept the challenge and go through it.
Don't lay on your back.
If something's on your chest, get it off.
As long as you're breathing.
As long as that heart is pumping blood.
You're not dead yet. They haven't put
rose petals on your box yet. Make sure every breath you take counts for something.
It's time to understand that if you want to get something out of your life,
you got to be willing to work for it. How much are you really willing to give?
Are you prepared to hurt? Are you prepared to hurt?
Are you prepared to struggle? Because if you're not that person, then lay back down.
Stay where you are. Don't move forward. Move backwards. But if you are the person that you say you are, we don't have time to wait because time doesn't owe you anything. Time is not thinking about you. Time is already
made up its mind. What you going to do? Who said it's supposed to be easy? It takes grit.
It takes tenacity. It takes grit. It takes tenacity.
It takes sacrifice.
Stop feeling sorry for yourself.
This is not a pity party.
But you got the right to celebrate the life.
Because no matter if it's good or if it's bad,
nothing is greater than living.
Because if you're living,
there's a possibility to change something.
But not just change it.
Evolve it.
Evolve it to something greater.
Being able to take something
that may not be nothing to others,
but may mean something to you.
There are so many people in this world
that don't believe in you.
But while you're sitting around
worrying about people believing in you,
why don't you focus on believing in yourself?
Live. Breathe. why don't you focus on believing in yourself live breathe
life
you
that's what it's about
why do you run
why are you running
are you running?
Are you running for a reason?
Do you know the purpose behind the run?
Do you have enough faith in why you're running?
Are you afraid you're going to fall down?
Do you have enough balance? Are you prepared to test your balance? How fast can you run?
Maybe you got to slow down sometimes. Maybe when you cut that corner,
you got to understand that when you turn in that corner, there's a unique obstacle that is waiting for you.
But are you prepared to run through it?
Are you prepared to run fast?
Are you prepared to run strong?
Do you understand what it means to run?
So many people run away.
They run away
instead of
running forward.
Instead of running towards something.
You may have
to take your time
and just jog a little
bit.
But sooner or later you got to pick up the pace.
You got to start moving a little bit faster.
And you got to have the desire
to run hard.
To understand that there is something
that has to be done.
Don't run for stats.
Don't run for glory.
Run because you know it's necessary.
But understand that endurance is required.
Don't let dead weight slow you down.
Because dead weight is exactly that.
It's dead.
It has no life.
But you have life.
And you must continue to push and run as fast as you can.
And if you feel that you're getting a little tired.
If you feel that you don't have enough left in you.
I suggest you push that next button.
I suggest you go into that second and third gear.
I suggest that you understand.
That you got to be the one.
To make it to the finish line.
And even when you cross the finish line,
prepare yourself for the next race of your life.
Because every day you're racing.
Run fast.
Run strong.
Run with power.
Run with greatness. Run with a full heart. strong run with power run
with greatness
run
with a full heart
and believe in it
but don't quit
understand why you're running
if you ever question
why you're running. If you ever question why you run,
believe and know
there's a purpose
behind everything
that you do.
It is time to run for your life.
Pushing with everything you have inside of you.
Running towards an opportunity.
Running towards a victory.
Running as hard as you can.
You got to understand why you're running.
You have to understand the significance
and why you're running.
Don't run away
from the challenges.
Don't run away
because it's not going the way you want it to go.
Run.
Run with a full heart.
Run with everything you have in your heart.
Get your legs moving.
And run.
Sometimes you may ask yourself, how fast can I run?
How fast can I get to my destination?
But you have to also understand when you're running, you got to have in your mind that you got to pace yourself.
You got to be able to pay attention when you're running.
Because while you're running, there are going to be obstacles around you and these obstacles are going to be put in place that may try to distract you
but you got to keep running
and some days you're going to be slow and some days you just gotta be fast but make sure when you're running
you got that mindset in the right place
don't be reckless
be productive in it
and understand that it means something
recognize
your beliefs
recognize your beliefs, recognize your drive.
Don't concern yourself
with things that doesn't concern your best.
Because if you're not giving your best,
then the rest will catch up to you.
So stay ahead of the pack.
And don't slack.
Because it will only push you back.
Continue the journey.
And keep your eyes on the prize.
Your rewards are waiting for you.
You don't want to be the slowest one on the track.
But you got to be the one
that's thinking.
But don't take too much time
thinking too much.
But understanding
that you have to commit
to why you're
running.
Running
is good. But you got to walk a little bit first. You got to walk a little
bit so you can understand what's about to happen. You got to walk a little bit so when it's time
to put the pedal to the metal, you got to head up and you're thriving and you strike and you
move it so fast that nothing around you can stop you so don't be late for the
celebration of your victory because your victory belongs Because your victory. Belongs to you.
No one else.
Take pride in it.
Believe in it.
Stand on it.
Earn it.
Because it's yours.
Keep it moving.
Be productive.
Be powerful. And from the bottom of my heart. Be productive. Be powerful.
And from the bottom of my heart, run strong, run hard, and conduct your business.
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 there 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
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's 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. 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
that you have within yourself,
then everything that you are thriving
for, everything that you are hungry
for
will soon come to an end. 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.
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
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 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 grow?
One thing about success,
there are going to be many struggles.
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 want it 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
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 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 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
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 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 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.
So much to do but doing it and sitting around waiting for it to happen it's
just gonna 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,
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? 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 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. 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 doubt. 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. life
how beautiful it is
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?
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
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,
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
because your life
is a beautiful game
and 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 for the outcome or whatever it
is that you are seeking at this moment.
There are going to be so many different things that you will embark on.
There are going to be so many different things
that's going to try to slow you down.
There are going to be so many different challenges
that you must face.
But instead of running away from the challenge, run towards the challenge.
Be able to understand that life has meaning.
It has reason.
And all of these things that you may be thinking that is so hard on you.
Just remember.
Sometimes you're going to have to go through these changes.
These circumstances.
That puts you in a position.
To make you feel.
That you're not worthy anymore.
But make no mistake. You are worthy. You were created for something. You
wasn't created for nothing. Life has a gift, a gift of giving, a gift of receiving. And
whether if it's good or bad, you've got to make sure you understand that these circumstances and these challenges has to happen in your life.
You will come to a point that you may feel that you are in a hopeless situation.
You may come to a point in your life where you're at the end of a rope
and the only thing left to do
is to climb up
because you only can do so much for so long
but make sure you're doing much more
instead of doing less
stop stressing about the things
that you cannot control
and stop focusing on the things
that you have control of.
Take control of your life.
Take control of the opportunities.
Believe in yourself
and know that it is not over for you.
So many people out there in this world right now.
Will try to tell you not to be something that you feel in your heart that you want to be.
So many people out there right now are miserable.
And they'll try their best to take you with them.
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 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 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.
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. When you are doing everything in your power to be the best makeup of yourself,
there's always going to be an adversary that's going to try to take that away from you.
Now, the best way you can overcome this is having the faith. Now, it doesn't matter
what you believe in as long as it's something that's positive that's going to get you through
it. A lot of people don't have that ability to be strong. And I'm not talking about the physical
aspect of strength. I'm literally talking about the mental and of course spiritual aspect of strength don't let pride confuse your tears you got to let that out sometimes you got to let it go
when i lost my mom years ago that was the hardest thing that i had to deal with
and to this day i still think about that woman that gave me life. And I have my moments
when I'm happy about the good times, but I also have my moments when she left this world.
But that's just one thing. That's just one circumstance. There are many circumstances
I can talk about, but I continue to move on. Everybody gets knocked down. No matter how tough
you think you are, you're going to fall.
And when you fall, sometimes you fall real hard.
But that ground is a hard surface.
And I'm going to tell you something, it ain't going to move because you're laying on it.
So you need to rise up and you need to rise above it and you need to start moving.
When you get knocked down, how long are you going to stay down?
When you lose your job, when you lose lose that loved one regardless if it's your husband
your wife your child whatever it is do you have the ability to go through the hurt and the pain
of that loss regardless of what you're going through the best time you know that you are
strong is when you're at the weakest point of your life when you are so far down that hole you
looking up and you don't see no light.
But yet you know there's an end to this darkness.
That's when you'll find out just how strong you really are.
This is a process.
And you have to hurt just a little bit.
So you can understand what it means to be strong.
So don't give up on your hopes.
Don't give up on your dreams.
Don't give up on your hopes Don't give up on your dreams Don't give up on yourself
Just keep moving forward
If you think that you're going through something so bad right now
Wait until tomorrow if tomorrow comes for you
Look at the person next to you
Look at people all over the world
If you ever come in contact with certain individuals.
And ask yourself, are they going through a lot more than what I'm going through?
Because honestly there are always going to be people that are going through a lot more than you're going through right now.
When you're down, find a way to get up.
I've been there. I go through it like anybody else.
But I have a job to do in this world and so do you
April 6 2020 I lost my dad I lost my mom nine years ago and I just lost my father.
Many people lose things.
Things that matter to them.
Things that mean something to them.
Recently I spoke very highly about my father while he was in this world.
But now my father is gone.
And what hurt me the most is that I didn't have the chance to say goodbye I didn't have the chance to travel to
bury my father because of the crisis that we are facing in our society, in this world right now.
But yet I'm here.
Yet I'm still alive.
And yet I still got work to do in this world.
Does it hurt?
Am I grieving?
Do I feel a little bit of despair?
Absolutely. Absolutely I feel a little bit of despair? Absolutely.
Absolutely, I feel that pain.
Absolutely, I understand what it means to hurt.
Absolutely, I feel like there's nothing else left in me.
Because when I lost my father, a piece of me went with him.
Now that's not something to just be telling you.
I'm telling you the reality of how I feel
as a man
as a son
as a father
as a human being
no matter how strong
no matter how tough you think you are
you're gonna hurt
you're gonna feel that sense of emptiness. You're
going to feel that sense of loss. But it. It's to fight through it.
There's nothing, nothing on earth can stop your purpose if you just hold on to it.
So I live not just for me, not just for my family, not just for the people that look to me
but i do it to honor my parents
it feels not the best of me right now because i don't have that mother to talk to i don't have that mother to talk to. I don't have that father to talk to or to give advice.
It's just me now. The people that mattered in my life, the people that gave me life are
no longer in this world, but they exist in my heart. They give me a reason that they left a legacy for me to carry on.
This doesn't mean that it's the end of me.
It means that I have work to do.
It means that I have to continue to push and go harder and go stronger.
It means that I have to stay focused.
It means that I have to stay faithful.
To each one of you that is listening to this message.
Understand the pain, the struggles and all of the things that you felt that are holding you back.
It's not going to hold you back for very long.
Because as long as you are alive alive you have to continue to move on
you have to continue to live you can't allow the misery and the hurt and the pain
hold you back to a position where you can't move forward because as long as there's life in that
body you got things that you need to get done.
The reality is we cannot go on forever, but we must go on.
We can't live forever, but we must continue to live.
We must fight for something.
Don't fight for nothing live and breathe and fight and believe and understand that it's not
over for you it's not over for you because you are still here so make the most of your life
honor those that are no longer here with us. Make sure you're leaving
the mark. Make sure you're leaving the legacy. So when your time comes, your legacy can be left to
the next generation. So keep up the good fight. It's not over for me. And it shouldn't be over for you.
Carry on.
Live strong.
Keep it moving.
And from the bottom of my heart, conduct your business.

Darkness surrounds you.

Yes, darkness is upon you,
but there will come a time the sun will shine. Dawn is upon you now. Can you really see the light?
Can you really understand the light within you? Your journey can be seen millions and millions of miles
away because you
traveled through the darkness.
You fought through the darkness.
You were down
in the darkness.
You cried in the darkness.
You wandered in the darkness.
It is time for you
to welcome the light
this emptiness that you are feeling right now
it is only a temporary match
a temporary thing that is going on inside of you right now
it's only temporary
but it is necessary
it is necessary that you struggle
it is necessary that you feel alone It is necessary that you feel alone.
It is necessary that you have to continue to go forward.
Nothing can stop this.
Because that light has already been there.
That light is embedded in you.
That light exists in you.

The sun is going to rise.
And you will see the light within you.
Build yourself up.
Strengthen your mind.

You're feeling like there's nothing that you can do.
You feel that you have no power.
You feel that you have no power. You feel that you have no strength.
Yet, you are walking through darkness.
Can you see?
Can you really see through the darkness?
You are wandering and you have no idea where to go.
You are wandering
and you have no one to turn to.
Can you see?
Can you see through the darkness?
Can you feel your purpose?
Nothing can stop your purpose.
Nothing can stop what's meant for you.
Nothing around you can stop what's already yours.
Your destiny belongs to you.
Do you feel it?
Do you understand the purpose behind the darkness? It represents
something. It serves a purpose. It's an unknown purpose that many of us never would understand Can you see
Through the darkness
You travel down this path
You travel down this path of the unknown
And yet you are afraid
You are afraid because you don't understand it
You are afraid because you don't understand it You are afraid because you feel empty You are afraid because no one is there to help you
I would like to introduce you
To the light
To the dawn
To the beauty
To the understanding
And knowing that this is the joy.
This is the joy that you must embrace.
This is the moment of happiness.
Without any despair, without any rejections.
But an understanding that you made it, that you made it this far.
And no matter what circumstances come your way, the light, the dawn is upon you.
It shines on you.
It shines on you. It shines on you.
Because you deserve it.
You deserve it because you put so much work in.
You've been knocked down.
You've been pushed aside.
No one believed in you.
They rejected you.
They said you wasn't worthy.
Negativity entered into your heart.
And you believed it.
But then dawn showed up.
Dawn showed up.
The light showed up.
And said, take my hand.
Walk with me.
Let me show you the way.
Let me show you how far you can go.
Let me that you see.
The beauty.
Within you.
Can you see now. with this beautiful bright light
that surrounds you
the glow around you
can you really feel it?
Not just on the outside
but on the inside.
Yes
dawn
is upon you. The light is upon you
the light
is upon you
you made it through the darkness
and now the light
shines upon you
there are going to be many other struggles
there are going to be many other challenges
and yes darkness will come again There are going to be many other struggles. There are going to be many other challenges.
And yes, darkness will come again.
But you built up something.
You built up a resistance.
You built up an opportunity within you.
You built up the strength that many others don't have.
So regardless of darkness.
Regardless of light.
You keep your head up high and you keep moving forward.
Don't quit.
Don't give up on you.
Don't give up on the best of you.
This is your time through the darkness
you rose above it
you understood
what you had to do
you didn't wait for anybody
you didn't wait for anyone to rescue you
you knew what had to be done
and you did it
this is the dawn
this is what you've been chasing
this is the happiness
that you were seeking
but it is up to you
to continue the journey.
You can't stop.
The light is within you.
Dawn is upon you.
It is a beautiful day.
It is an amazing day.
Can you see?
It's time to rise and shine.
It's time to be about that business.
It's time to understand that if you want to get something out of your life,
you've got to be willing to work for it.
I'm talking to the one that wants to go beyond the limit.
I'm talking to the one that is willing to work a little bit harder than the next man or the next woman.
I'm talking to the one that's been through hell.
I'm talking to the one that really wants to take it to that level that no one has ever been
when you step into that room
when you step into that environment
you got to be hungry enough to eat
what is coming your way
you cannot be concerned about what can't be done
you need to be focused on what must be done
if you feel that you are not in the position to do it what can't be done. You need to be focused on what must be done.
If you feel that you are not in the position to do it, then why
show up in the first place?
You've got to understand
that it takes grit, passion
and determination
to get to the level
of where you want to be.
But you got to understand the difference between levels
and going beyond them.
You can't stay in one place and expect to get to the next place.
You can't look at the sky because beyond the sky
there's a great big universe.
Now what are you going to do about it?
Are you prepared to push?
Are you prepared to work?
Are you prepared to dig?
You got to fight.
You got to push.
You got to give everything you have.
Because I tell you this.
Weakness won't save you.
All you need is the power, power the strength and the tenacity to give it everything you got have the love for your grit have the love with every rep that you push out and understand
it is up to you to get the most of everything that you've worked so hard for.
Now you've got to also understand this.
It ain't going to be easy.
It's not going to be a walk in the park.
There's always more to give.
You've got to be willing to sacrifice.
You've got to be willing to hurt.
You've got to be willing to yell out.
Whatever it takes.
Keep pushing forward.
Don't you give up on your life.
Don't you give up on those reps.
Don't you give up on giving it what it takes.
To get the most of yourself
if you believe in your possibilities then make it work for you
if you believe that that weight is too heavy then you won't push it. If you believe that when you run in that mile and you
want to give up, you better find another way and push harder than you've ever pushed. Don't get
tired. Don't get weak. Find a way. Make a way. Push your body. Push your mind.
Push your soul.
And give it everything you got.
Because someone else out there may want it a little better than you do.
Now if you say what you are, then be what you need to be.
If you want to get something out of life, then fight for your life.
When you're in that gym, find a way to go beyond that limit.
Find a way to push your body.
It is your body.
It is yours.
You own it.
It belongs to you.
The time that you have in this world, you only got a short time.
Make the time count.
Make the moment count.
Give it something.
Feed that body.
Build that body.
Build that mind.
Build that soul. And go to work.
Because this is the hour.
This is the time. This is the time.
This is the now,
and I want to see you working.
I want you to dig.
I want you to feel it.
I want you to struggle.
I want you to hurt.
I want you to bleed.
I want you to fight,
because this is that time.
Show the world,
and show up,
and show up and show up
and most importantly,
do your job
and do that business. This goes out to the firefighters
who goes through a burning building
to help those that can't help themselves.
This goes out to the
policemen or the police woman who
serves and protect those who don't
have the ability to protect
themselves. This goes out to all
of those men and women who serve
both far and near on the front lines. This goes out to our military
men and women who give it all. This goes out to those that never made it home. This goes
out to the families that will never see their loved ones again. We must never forget those
who put it on the line.
We must never forget those
who are unselfish
and being able to contribute what they contribute each and every day.
How can we not recognize them? How can we not recognize them?
How can we not recognize
what they do?
Why does it have to just be
one particular day
that we honor them?
It should never be
a one day thing.
Without these people who serve,
without these people
that give it their all,
how can we do what we do?
Somebody got to do the job.
They made it up in their minds.
They made it up in their minds and in their hearts that this must be done.
And they are willing to do what is necessary to get the job done.
Think about those kids out there
that may not ever see their parents again.
Whether if it was the mother or the father
who may have lost their lives in the line of duty.
Doesn't matter what you believe in.
Doesn't matter how you feel about certain things.
Somebody has to be out there.
Somebody has to be willing to go through it.
Somebody has to be willing to sacrifice.
Sometimes these people never come home. This is the time that we must recognize
them. We must recognize those families that may never see their loved ones again. Oh yes, oh yes
it's true
many people put it on the line
many people get out there every day
and do something that has never been done before
many people out there put it on the line
and do something special to help someone else.
Why can't we recognize them?
No matter where you go, no matter where you may be, someone is out there right now that is doing something far greater and they're
putting so much work in to make a difference in this world.
Why can't we honor them?
Why can't we honor those servicemen and women?
You have to consider the fact
there are great doctors,
there are great lawyers,
there are great teachers,
there are great mothers and fathers,
there are great people
in this world.
We all are responsible
for one another. We all are responsible.
For one another.
We all have a duty.
We all have to serve.
Whether you wear a uniform or not.
You have to serve.
Can you be a serviceman?
Can you be a serviceiceman can you be a service woman can you serve are you prepared to serve do you have the ability to serve don't make it about yourself you have a duty
you have a responsibility they didn't give up. Why should you keep moving? Keep
believing. We are all one. Both far and near, we must serve. So this day, we honor the servicemen and women
who put it on the line
who've given their all
and if they make it home
and they have the ability to put their arms around their loved ones
job well done
and there will be a new day
and that day be a new day and that day
starts a new opportunity
a new opportunity
to make something else special happen
thank you for your service
thank you for putting it on the line
for each day
that you go out
to do a job
that maybe others
will never understand
never have the ability to do
or even be able to give the time Will never understand. Never have the ability to do.
Or even be able to give the time.
That you give.
For every man and woman.
That serves.
You should always be honored and respected.
From far and near, you do something that is so great
and so special to so many.
And sometimes what you do doesn't be recognized enough.
There should never just be a special day to honor those that serve.
Every day should be a special day.
For you are a special individual.
For you give so much and yet only receive so little.
This is the time
that you must be recognized
for the greatest sacrifices that you have given.
You must be recognized
for your losses,
for your struggles,
for the things that you have to endure.
That others will never see.
Today you will be honored.
But not just this day.
But every day.
For the men and women who serve.
For the men and women who give it all, for the men and women that put it on the line, and yet pain and the sacrifices that you have given.
The fight always being you.
But this is the time and the moment right now that you must be recognized, that you must understand that you are appreciated.
We should never forget those who have fallen.
Never forget those who never made it home.
Never forget those who would never have the opportunity to sit at the table
and break bread with their loved ones.
This is that day
to recognize
those that serve.
Keep up the good fight, everybody.
Keep living strong
and never forget
our servic men and women
the end of the year is here and you made it this far.
There were good times and there were bad times,
but yet you are still here.
You made it this far because something kept you going.
Something kept you believing.
Something helped you to understand that the fight was not over yet.
This is the year that is soon to come to a close.
And there will be a new year.
And greater opportunities will be waiting for you.
But let's get back to 2019.
Let's talk a little bit about what you've been through this year.
You had to experience some things that you did not understand.
You had to experience some greatness.
You had to experience some weaknesses. You had to experience things that no did not understand. You had to experience some greatness. You had to experience some weaknesses. You had to experience things that no one could understand, but you are the
one that has to be responsible to go through it. You were put on your back and you probably thought
that you didn't have the ability to come back, but you did. Sometimes you may hear people saying that they're getting old.
You're never getting old.
You're just getting blessed.
If you put your right hand on your heart right now, you can feel that blood pumping.
You can feel that purpose.
You can feel that reason.
You don't have time to be complaining anymore regardless of circumstances regardless of heartaches and pains
regardless of the joys regardless of the sorrows you made it you made it because there was purpose there purpose doesn't lie
it always
always tells the truth
you just got to understand
that this is the time
and as this year comes to a close
2019
soon will be over
and you have to recognize that there's going to be a new year for you.
A new year that is waiting for you.
Now there are no guarantees that tomorrow will be there.
There are no guarantees that 2020 will be waiting for you.
So make that mark and make that mark right now. Leave the past behind you.
Be strong, people. Be strong within yourself, regardless of what you're feeling at this moment
right now, regardless of what people may say about you, be strong. Because you are a unique creation.
And you made it this far because something was meant for you. We had to experience great losses in 2019.
We had to witness great victories in 2019.
This is the beauty
of living.
This is the beauty
of understanding.
This is the beauty of knowing
that you matter
and the reason that you matter
is because you are still here
among the living.
Now you have to set the new stage.
Now you have to set the new mark. Now you have to set the new mark.
And be greater than you was yesterday.
Realize that you are walking above ground for a reason.
2019 may have had its ups and downs.
But you did not stay down.
You knew what you had to do to get up. So you got up.
Maybe that job didn't come through for you in 2019, but 2020 is waiting for you.
And if you're able to live, if you're able to push,
if you're able to grow, you're going to grow into a better you.
Let this be the opportunity of a lifetime.
Don't forget, easy was not intended for you or I.
For without struggle, how can you build true character?
So maybe you were in a position that you felt like you were broken.
But being broken doesn't mean that you can't put it all together again.
You must be the architect of your life.
Create your own blueprint.
Set yourself up.
And regardless if you fail or if you succeed, but don't give up because if you made it this far,
you can definitely go a little bit further.
Make 2020 your year.
Make 2020 be the year that they remember you.
That you remember your
accomplishments as well as
your failures.
But don't you ever,
ever give up on you.
This year
is coming to an end.
And 2020 is right around the corner.
Make sure that you are ready.
Make sure that you are prepared.
Because 2020 has not been written yet.
Just like a book.
There are many chapters in a book.
What chapter.
Will tell the story about you.
What history will you make.
What would you leave behind.
What legacy.
Would you leave behind.
2020. Is the year that we begin a new chapter a new day a new year a new you now i'm not talking about just the physicality. I'm talking about the mental, the physical, as well as the spiritual.
For they are one.
They are all connected.
But you have to be connected.
With your self-resilience.
You have to be connected.
With your ideas. You have to be connected. With your ideas.
You have to be connected.
With your truth.
Don't get disconnected.
From being who you are.
Don't go through 2020.
Trying to prove something to others.
That don't believe in you.
Whatever happened
in the past,
let it be.
If 2020
is waiting for you, if it's promised
to you, make
sure you go through 2020 with
your head up high
and be the
best.
Because 2020 will be the year that you will be able to understand.
It's just another year for you to be better than you was last year.
So make 2020 your year and let the rest take care of itself
life
is so short
life only has
only a little time
although it will continue to go on.
You cannot hold on.
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? How do we lead the next generation? 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 you are
how true you are
and what you matter in this world to so
many other people.
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?
What legacy
will be left behind
to remind others
of your greatness,
of your greatness, of your losses,
of your victories,
of your sorrows.
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
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. 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, 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, we all got to punch that clock.
So carry on.
And don't give up.
And don't give in. And don't give in.
And do the best that you can.
To have the right attitude.
To make your existence matter.
Your existence. your existence 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 sometimes to not even know what's coming your way.
Sometimes it's not necessary to know everything.
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 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
life is such a great thing. 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? And that person over there is not suffering as much as I am.
Ladies and gentlemen, life, your existence, it's temporary.
It won't last forever.
And if you're sitting around wasting it,
if you're sitting around being hateful,
if 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 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
in fact it may even scare you
but you can't fake this
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
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 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 been broken.
Some things can mend in time.
And some things are better off left alone.
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,
they'll still find something that is not making them
happy.
You must make peace
within your heart.
You must make peace
within your spirit.
Life is so short. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. you
