Starting point is 00:00:36 The link is in the description. You know, it's always a little bit frustrating to me when people have a negative relationship with failure. Fail early, fail often, fail forward. You're here right now at this moment. Because tomorrow, you want to be somebody greater than the person you are today. You see yourself succeeding, you have a vision, you have a dream.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Congratulations. You're already 10 steps ahead of 95% of the world. Imagine if Michael Jordan was scared of missing. He would have never taken a shot. Imagine if Steve Jobs was afraid of people not liking his product. There would be no iPhone. So ask yourself this. Do you want to be a person who fears failure
Starting point is 00:01:38 Or do you want to be a person who loves success? Which one? Because you're going to have to pick today And I'll tell you one thing One is a failure And one is a success And if you love success There is nothing that can stop you All those negative things people say
Starting point is 00:01:55 Will mean nothing They're going to talk about how only 1% make it to the top Big deal Want to know something else? Only 1% stick with that fitness program long enough to see results. Only 1% of nerds stick with that video game long enough to get good at it. Only 1% of relationships stick it out to the end. That doesn't mean you have a 1% chance. It just means you can't behave like
Starting point is 00:02:30 the 99%. You'll have to do something better than giving up a month for you. now. Those are just numbers. You want to talk about numbers? Take a look around you and take a good look around you. Are you like 99% of the people around you? If you are, then you're in a wrong video my friend. You have to love success just as much because that's what's going to allow you to get up and go for it. Being scared to fail won't do anything. In fact, I When you love success and you start going for it, guess what happens? You're going to fail.
Starting point is 00:03:13 You're going to fail 10 times, 100 times, maybe even a thousand times. But that's okay. Failure isn't permanent. Falling isn't permanent. You get right back up and keep going. And this time you're going to be stronger, wiser, and you'll be more, driven than ever. And for every 10 failures, you'll land one success. You had to love success so
Starting point is 00:03:44 much that you're willing to fail 10 times before you can succeed once. That's how a winner does it. I want to explain the biggest myth that most people think leads them to success. And here's the myth. You might believe if you're scared to fail, you won't fail. Biggest myth ever. And I believed it. You see, I always thought that being scared to fail in life would literally keep me from failing. I would look at the losers around me and I would say,
Starting point is 00:04:27 sheesh, I never want to turn out like him. I really believe this train of thought would help me succeed. Until one day, I was walking, down the street and I saw an old man had a hat suspenders and a cane was about 80 years old this old man was barely walking he could walk but the cane helped a lot he was struggling so anyway he was walking across the street and he ended up falling so I went over to go help him and he gets up says thank you and we introduced ourselves had a little conversation told me his name and I told him mind. His name was Robert, by the way. And right as he walked away, I told him, this is what I said.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Robert, you should stay inside where it's safe, my friend. And Robert turns around and says to me, I love walking, and I love walking way more than I'm afraid of falling. So I ask him, well, what about your safety? Don't you want to live? And he told me this. These are the exact words he said. He said this. Solo, living means doing what you love to do. And if I had to fall here and there to do what I want to do in life, then so be it. And he just walked away. Never saw him again.
Starting point is 00:05:52 That was it. But that statement really had me thinking, and it had me thinking hard because I learned something that day. That's when I realized the true key to success. You see, I always thought. if I could just fear the act of failing and if I fear it like crazy, I will succeed. Because I thought the fear would magically motivate me to get out there and start taking action. But after that day, uh-uh, I realized something. I realize it's the love for success that will lead me to succeeding.
Starting point is 00:06:32 So just imagine if Robert feared falling, would he even? even start walking? Of course not. He wouldn't even do what he loved to do. He would sit at home and take no type of action. But he loved walking. Wasn't even scared to fall. It gave him life. That's what allowed him to get up and do it. He loved walking so much he was willing to fall 10 times a day just to do it. And you have to be the same. So you have to be the same. So So the next time someone tells you, you're gonna fail. You know what you tell them? Tell them they're right.
Starting point is 00:07:15 But you're not afraid of fail. You're not afraid to take action. You're not afraid to jump. You're gonna fail 10 times, but you know what? It's cool. Because on the 11th time, you'll succeed. Oh, you'll succeed all right. And it'll feel good.
Starting point is 00:07:38 and while you're over here living the life of your dreams and complete happiness guess where they're going to be that's right there'll be failures the real failures over there where it's safe scared to fail ironic isn't it you know a lot of people come up to me and they ask me Marco what is it that motivates you most and to answer their question I reply back with a question I say what if I told you that you had one week left to live would you regret not pursuing your dreams passions and desires would you regret not living your life to the fullest would you regret not spending as much time
Starting point is 00:08:28 with your family friends or loved ones you know Steve Jobs said in a speech one time that he used to wake up every morning look in the mirror and ask himself questions like this and he said that if the answer was yes for too many days in a row, then he knew that he had to change something. And that should go for all of us. If you're living a life that you would not be okay with losing because you weren't able to do things you wanted to do, then now you know that you need to change something. Life is simply too short and unpredictable to not live exactly the way that you please. It is ridiculously unpredictable.
Starting point is 00:09:10 It is possible that on any given day to die at any point throughout that day, without ever being able to see it coming. You know, when I was 13, I had this teacher who was an absolutely amazing person. I'd known him for several years then, and he had two kids, a loving wife, he was a man of God, contributed to the community.
Starting point is 00:09:29 He gave us everything that he had, and he would bike to school every single day. I always remember him come to school on his bike and one morning on his way to school, it was early in the morning, he was crossing an intersection, a reckless driver comes out of nowhere, hits him, he dies on the spot on the moment of impact. His death taught me so many valuable things in life and one of them being that it went on to show that no matter how much you don't deserve to die and no matter how good of a person you are and no matter what your situation is, no matter anything, it goes to. show that death is inevitable in random and it will eventually consume each and every single one of us, whether it's in 50 years, in 10 years, next year, or even tomorrow. You cannot control it, the people around you cannot control it. As long as you're at the wrong place, at the wrong time, your whole life could disappear
Starting point is 00:10:24 in the blink of an eye, along with everything you wished you could have done. Whether you're walking down the street, whether you're stepping into the elevator, whether you're walking down the stairs, whether you're just existing. Listen, you'll see people from nowhere die of a heart attack, gone. No family history, no symptoms, no causes, nothing. It happens. And that's the cruel life that we live in. And it's something that we cannot control. So what I want to make clear is that regardless of the path that you take in your life, at one point, death will consume you. It doesn't care. Whether you floss your teeth in the morning, whether you raise a family or not, whether you go on to be rich, poor, a success, a failure, whether, whatever, you are still going
Starting point is 00:11:08 to die at one point. It is that simple. And knowing that you're going to die soon should be the biggest motivation to both make the difficult decisions in life and to get your ass out of bed in the morning. So now the question becomes, what is it that you truly have to lose? If you pursue your dreams and you fail, sure you might be a little bit more financially unstable. You might experience stress or other feelings you wish you never had to experience. But either way, even if you fail, you will end up back to where you started, which is where you are now.
Starting point is 00:11:42 So what do you literally have to lose? Some of you right now, you're thinking about maybe starting a business. You have a great idea that you want to incorporate into your lifestyle. Maybe you're thinking about pursuing your dreams to the fullest. Maybe you're thinking about putting in the work to become a doctor, an engineer, a firefighter, a professional athlete. But some of you won't follow these ambitions because you're afraid. You're afraid to fail. You let the fear of failure dictate your actions,
Starting point is 00:12:05 and you're afraid of what mama or papa thinks. You're afraid of what your sister, your brother thinks, or your grandpa, or your grandma, or your cousins, or whoever. But what truly matters is you. You are in possession of a gift. You have a talent, and whatever that talent is, you can make yourself and people around you a stronger and better place with it. But sometimes the only way to do that is to take a risk.
Starting point is 00:12:27 At one point, you have got to take a leap. If you want to make that gift that you have become a reality. Otherwise, society will gladly accept you as a 9 to 5 slave working just to pay off your rent and to stay alive and to live for the weekend, which is the absolute worst way to live. If you don't jump, believe me, if you don't pursue your gift, you will live a life full of regret in your gift, your dreams. Everything that you ever had to offer to the world will die with you. from first-hand experience, I am pissed off at myself.
Starting point is 00:13:03 I am pissed off and I regret so much in my life. I can't even fathom explaining it, not about what I've done, but what I haven't done, all the opportunities that I turned down and all the chances that I never took just because I was afraid or because I was worried about what other people think. And I officially decided to sit down. I sat down for weeks. I didn't just think of what I'm saying right now.
Starting point is 00:13:28 I didn't think of it overnight. This is months! This is months of thinking and I just sat out and I just wrote. And after comparing the randomness of death versus the chance of you failing while relentlessly pursuing your dreams versus the chance of you living a terrible life because you failed at pursuing your dreams versus just calling it a day right now and living a traditional Western world lifestyle versus everything you can think of versus absolutely everything. And I can gladly say that right now, as of this moment right here,
Starting point is 00:13:58 I would rather live each day as if it were my last and take every risk possible in these sacred moments that I have on earth now to make myself as successful and happy as possible than to be sitting in my deathbed when I'm 90 years old regretting not taking a chance and thinking about what my life could have been if I just jumped when I was 18 or when I was 15 or when I was 22 because tomorrow is not a promise. I would rather die trying to live my dreams than to live a longer life filled with regret. Life is too short and too unpredictable to live it. I've seen it firsthand. It is not worth it to live it safe, basic, and traditional. But do you know why most people choose to live that safe life overtaking risks in their life? I mean, there's a pretty good argument not to. Why would you?
Starting point is 00:14:56 Why would you take a risk that puts you through stress, puts your family through stress, makes you lose sleep, makes you lose time, makes you put in the extra work, makes you take ridiculous chances that are one to one thousand, you know, before I even continue, the fact that I'm even sitting here and talking is astonishingly ridiculous on its own. The chance of you being born is one to 400 trillion. That number is so big you cannot even wrap your head around it. But, okay, what I wanted to say was that the reason why people don't want to take these risks is because right now they feel like they got a lot to lose and that their current situation
Starting point is 00:15:35 is relatively nice and most importantly right now they are comfortable they got used to living basic within society standards being with their friends every now and then being well rested they got comfortable and when you get comfortable you don't want to move and that comfort zone i like to call the dangerous zone because this comfort zone will persuade you to stay in there for as long as possible. And it is, I know, I know how it is, I know the comfort zone. It is so convincing. It is so hard to escape comfort. I know. And as it persuades you to stay in there, you will literally, unconsciously, see, I'm so serious when I say this, you will literally see your whole life go right behind you. And the main reason that I'm serious about this now is because I am
Starting point is 00:16:23 pissed off for grayness. I want to move mountains. And like Ray Lewis once said, if you're not pissed off for greatness, then you're okay with being mediocre. And I am definitely not okay with being average. And I don't think anyone should be. But anyways, to address why I'm even talking about any of this at all in the first place is because I recently got an offer to move out to Los Angeles, California, to live with two other entrepreneurs as a contact creator and media influencer. And it makes me sad because it's opened up my eyes to see what I truly have in store for me. What's waiting for me out there in the future? And it's just a tiny glimpse of what I'm capable of achieving within my short life. However, I doubt that I could get the right
Starting point is 00:17:05 legal paperwork done in order to move to the U.S. to work for a job such as YouTube, which is really not in control of the government. And the last thing that I want to do is to go to the U.S. to work in a legal job as an illegal immigrant. So as of this moment, I feel like I have to pass up yet another opportunity. And it makes me feel like I just keep letting my dream slip from my hands once more. And now that I've seen the reality of what is possible, this house in LA, next to the beach on California, with a huge city, great weather, and working a job that I would absolutely love and live for. With people who share the exact same dream and vision, it has me thinking like, hell yeah, I would gladly die chasing this dream relentlessly, then never chase
Starting point is 00:17:45 it at all and play it safe and being trapped within my own mind of thinking about what my life could have been. I hope to do more videos like this where I speak, because they're really like a therapy for me and it helps me get my mind off things and hopefully some people can be influenced by what I'm actually saying. I would also like to say that I think education is extremely important and plays a crucial role into bringing success into your life and that knowledge is power. The best thing in life is to always have a backup plan and take into consideration what if something goes wrong and it's something that every role model that I look up to tries to enforce but I feel like education will always be here for me to come back to whether I'm 20, 25,
Starting point is 00:18:24 40 or whatever and I think that I have an amazing idea vision passion and drive now in my peak and that I'm able to capitalize on which makes me feel like I'm throwing it away if I don't pursue it and the biggest response that I've been getting recently is Marco what if it fails which I mean yeah like what if it fails but that's the whole point of taking a chance with things like startup companies or entrepreneurship it's ridiculously high risk like what if I get hit by a car what if I lose my wallet or better yet what if this succeed You know, it's easy to be negative or to be close-minded, but I think it's easier to be optimistic and to be open-minded and please do yourself a favor, which is a separate topic on its own for another time, but try to surround yourself with people who impose and promote positivity and good vibes. You will notice the tremendous effect that it has on your lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Starting your own business or being self-employed, although preferable, doesn't exactly require any kind of diploma or degree. And I think that with a proper business plan and with the drive that people like you who are watching this video fuel me with, I feel like I can accomplish anything. If you're still listening, I love you, mad respect. That's true loyalty right there. If you're less, this has been Marco. I hope you all have a great rest of the day and goodbye. I have a lot of fail. I failed for funny things that I filled a key primary school test for two times.
Starting point is 00:19:51 And I filled like three times for the middle school. You know, for three years I tried to fail in the universities. So I applied jobs for 30 times got rejected. I went for a police. They said, no, you're not good. I went to even the KFC. When KFC came to China, come to my seat. You applied.
Starting point is 00:20:15 24 people went for the job. 23 people accepted. I was the only guy. And we went for police. Five people, four of them accepted. I was the only guy did not receive it. So, to me, being turned down, rejected. Oh, by the way, I told you that I applied for Harvard for ten times rejected.
Starting point is 00:20:38 I know if you reject it. Sorry now. Yeah, sorry now. One of the things you've got to understand, my friend, is that you're supposed to fail. You're supposed to fail. Because failure is the stepping stone to success. You need a logical reason why. Because failure is an experience that lends to wisdom that ultimately makes you a stronger version of yourself.
Starting point is 00:21:06 Maybe you've got to test anxiety. I don't know. But the worst thing you can do is quit. Talk to your professor. I'm not 100% sure, but I know that you cannot quit. Just because you failed doesn't make you a failure. Another one of these cliches or cliche stories is about Thomas Edison, right? When a reporter asked him, you know, what is it?
Starting point is 00:21:31 How did you feel about failing a thousand times? And he said, no, I didn't fail a thousand times. I just found a thousand different ways that it wasn't going to work. And that's what's happening with you. But every time he found a way that didn't work, he was adding to his journey. He was growing stronger. You learned something. You discovered something.
Starting point is 00:21:49 You are discovering something about yourself and you're exercising your character every time you get up and try something, move in the direction of something, even if you don't get the thing. It's not about the thing. It's not about making the basketball team. It's not about making a million dollars and it's not about the light bulb. It's about what you learn along the way, who you become along the way, and you're on the journey. And guess what? The journey is hard. The journey is riddled with failure and that's why most people don't do it. Most people are willing to get on that journey because they're afraid to fail. You, my friend, have failed. Congratulations. It's the greatest thing that ever happened to you. Because it shows that you're alive.
Starting point is 00:22:26 It shows that you did something. And it shows that you're growing stronger. Now, go and fail again. I hope you guys are watching these videos. I hope you're going to fail a thousand times. Keep going out there and failing. You know what that means? Every time you fail, it means to me.
Starting point is 00:22:40 It tells me that you're doing something. See, a lot of people, because they don't want to make any mistakes, It takes us to the next level. A lot of people don't want to fail. Fear of failure, fear of success. And guess what else? Fear of the unknown. You know, Wizard Churchill said about courage, Pat?
Starting point is 00:23:00 He said, courage is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm. So you want to courageously hold on to your dream and not lose enthusiasm. A guy in Los Angeles all over the front page of the newspaper, he just passed the bar after taking it 48. times. He had more than enough reason and excuses not to take it. His son has a law firm. He could have been a legal assistant, a clerk, and people all of a sudden used to laugh at this guy. He was a laughing stop. People would do that to you. You know, people talk about John Kennedy Jr. failing the bar. Did you read in a newspaper that he passed? I didn't see that, but did they make a bigger deal about him passing as they did when he failed? No, you know why? People like to see
Starting point is 00:23:47 They like to see that. People like that. I don't know why it's set up like that. I was on the expressway traffic was jammed up. You know what was happening? It was an accident. But people pull over to the side to get out of their car to go wrong to see somebody else's suffering. That's why talk shows are so popular. So people like to hear other people's misery. Get it caught up in that. Then they go magnified in their own lives because that's all they focus on. Who decided it doesn't matter how many times I feel. I'm going to courageously pursue it. I don't care what people say. I don't care what they This is something that I want that gives my life meaning and value. If you constantly remind yourself after every defeat, after every setback, every time you get knocked down, I've got a saying if life knocks you down, try and land on your back because if you can look up, you can get up.
Starting point is 00:24:33 See, a lot of people because of failure, they stop, they stop believing. Let me share something with you. You will fail your way to success. Yes. Eight out of ten millionaires have been financially bankrupt. You will fail your way to success. It doesn't matter how many times you fail. It doesn't matter how many times people tell you that you can't do it.
Starting point is 00:24:51 It doesn't matter if you don't have a dime in the bank. You will fail your way to success. There's something about the way we perceive success that results in one of the greatest tragedies of our time. And that's the belief that successful people, the ones at the top of their game, that talent is what punched their ticket, that destiny brought them.
Starting point is 00:25:27 to the finish line. And that's wrong. It's wrong because it takes the journey, the struggle, the scratching, and clawing that it took to get to the top of the mountain and throws it out the window. It completely mitigates what's most important. In the real world, the one we are living in,
Starting point is 00:25:55 it doesn't matter who you are, you are never entitled to a result. Victory is a product of the fight. Biggest favor you can ever do for yourself as you progress through life's up and down through the good and the bad when things get rough is know that you are going through what every successful person, every champion, every innovator has gone through in the history of mankind. Struggle is beautiful.
Starting point is 00:26:37 It's a sign that you are in the midst of what separates great from average. It's a necessary step and it's the most important step you will ever take because 99% of people can't see past it. Right? The world sees struggle, sees hardship as a time to pack it up to walk away, to be intimidated. But the best, I'm telling you, they look at struggle differently. It's like you can't get fit without blood, sweat and tears at the gym. You can't make deals without the hustle you can't make things happen if you don't move forward in the face of adversity when the word no is staring you in the eyes it's all part of the process winners walk on if you want something bad enough you know that being
Starting point is 00:27:41 uncomfortable is an ingredient if you want to be the best your mindset has to reflect the best Right, let others focus on the tip of the iceberg. You know excellence lies in everything underneath the surface, in what cannot be seen. So take mediocrity and make it excellence. Take what's yours and hold it up for the world. Because what hurts now in the present is the very same thing that will transform your life down the road.
