There's greatness in you. Are you hearing me? There's greatness in you. And you mean to tell me you're never going to reach your full potential. You mean to tell me you're never going to be what you've been called to be, that you're not going to do what you've been called to do because you are afraid. Listen to me, the boogeyman ain't real. That's why I need you to understand that you can have it. For real, you could have it, but it's going to be a fight. And if you're willing to put up the fight, I'm telling you at the end of the fight is going to be. to come victory. You've gotten this far. You was going to quit. You should have quit a long time ago.
Starting point is 00:03:27 You've come too far to quit now. You need to get a reward for it. That's why I'm trying to tell you, never stop, never give up, never give in. Your boy was a high school dropout. Your boy was homeless. Are you hearing what I'm saying? I slept in the bed in buildings, baby. You say, how did you get here, E? Because one day I got up and stopped being a victim and I was a victor. Are you hearing me? And I took that one class and that one class turning to two classes and I got my GED And then I went to college and yep I told you it took 12 years, but what did I do? I never stopped fighting. It got harder and it got harder and it seemed the further I climbed the harder it got But I didn't stop, I didn't quit I just kept fighting and fighting and then I got to the masters and it was harder than the four year
Starting point is 00:04:18 And it was harder than the GED but what did I do? I got here not because I'm the strongest not because I'm the fact Not because I'm the best, but I kept fighting and fighting and fighting and fighting. Your boy got through the masters. Now we're at the end of the PhD baby. Oh, you're not hearing what I'm saying. Now we got the dissertation. And I ain't no writer and I ain't no intelligent dude and I ain't no scholar. Then you say, how you're going to get the PhD?
Starting point is 00:04:41 Because I keep fighting and fighting and fighting and fighting and fighting and fighting and fighting. And what I will not do is I will not quit. And when that thing tells you to quit, you look at it in this eye, and say I ain't going nowhere I will break you before you break me you will not defeat me you will not destroy me let hold of it some of you are so ignorant you've been through so much hell you're gonna quit now you should have quit 10 years ago when you got right you should have quit 10 years ago when he walked out on you you should have been quit you don't quit now it's a 10th round you got two more to go and when you get to success it's not about
Starting point is 00:05:27 When you get to a third level of your side, it's about stamina. It's about stamina. It's about you won't break me. You can't take me. I fought too long. I fought too hard. If I was going to quick say, you should have got me a seven day on you. You should have broken me when I was reading out of trash. It's too late now. I'm in the rich car.
Starting point is 00:05:49 It's too late now. And fighting, and fighting, it's too late. I got people's lives like that. It's too late. You should have broke me a long time ago. I'm unbreakable now. If you could take this one principle that H.W. gave me. It revolutionized my life.
Starting point is 00:06:23 It's about to revolutionize your life if you were just embracing. Michael Jordan started, his career started by somebody telling him, no, that there's no way you're not good enough to play basketball. You hear me? In high school, he was told you can't play on his team. You're not good enough. Guess what he did? He kept fighting and fighting and fighting and fighting.
Starting point is 00:06:43 And even when he wasn't on the team, he was still fighting and fighting. And when he got cut, he never stopped fighting and fighting. And he came back to next year, made it on Varshani, went to North Carolina. Can't listen to me. Wasn't even the first round draft, Sam Bui. Y'all don't even know who that is. Right, Sam Bui? So he went from all of that adversity.
Starting point is 00:07:02 He kept fighting and fighting. He didn't win first year. He didn't win second year. He didn't win third year. He didn't win fourth year. He didn't win a championship fifth year. He didn't win one sixth year. It wasn't after seven years.
Starting point is 00:07:13 that he won his first title. Guess what he did? He kept fighting and fighting and fighting. And when I told my man H.W, listen to me, these brothers have shown me that nothing is impossible. He said, E.T., you got it twisted. It's past possible. Are you hearing what I'm saying? Revolutionize my life. He said it's past possible. See, this is the thing you got to understand. When somebody say impossible, nothing, you're still talking about two double negatives. You talk about a negative here, nothing. Negative here, impossible. He said, you got it twisted, Eric. It's not impossible. It's not that nothing is impossible. It's past possible. Meaning that there's no way you can't do it. Oh, you're not hearing me.
Starting point is 00:07:51 And when he said that, it changed my thought process because I'm going to keep it real with you. It's past possible. Oh, you not hear me. It's past possible. Meaning that not only can you do it, ah, you're going to go way beyond that. It means that the probability of you doing it is greater than you not doing it. You're not here what I'm saying. When you say it's past possible, that here, not only one, you do it but the odds are in your favor that's a whole other level it's past possible meaning that there's nothing you can't do that the odds are for you and not against you so you go get that phd so you go get that master's so you go back to school are you
Starting point is 00:08:31 hearing what i'm saying are you hearing what i'm telling you it's past possible meaning that all you got to do is start because if it's past possible as soon as we start you know you're going to set records you know you're going to take it to the next level you know what's going to be that you're going to You have never been done before, so I challenge you as past possible. If you're going to win the fight of your life, you can't be afraid to fight.
