You got to have care to have passion.
And you hear people say all the time, I don't care.
If that's you, you don't have passion.
You got to care, okay?
You got to care if we win or lose.
You got to care if we come in last place.
You got to care if I don't want a championship, I'm going to be pissed off.
You gotta care if you get divorced.
You gotta care if you file bank rush.
You gotta care if you don't get the 3.0 GPA you shooting for.
You feel in your goals.
You feel in your blank.
You're feeling your dreams.
You're feeling your goals.
At the end of the day, let me tell you something, champ.
You got to care.
Because if you don't care, guess what?
It ain't gonna happen.
If you don't care, guess what?
You ain't gonna grind.
If you don't care, guess what?
You're gonna quit when it's getting tough.
If you don't care, you're gonna throw in the town.
So I'm here to tell you, the first thing we gotta do is get you to care about your future.
Get you to care about your goals.
Get you to care about succeeding, get you to care about failing.
Let me tell you something.
If you're going to a jungle, there's two people who care.
That lion, that gazelle, that gazelle wants to live another day.
And that lion wants to eat so he can live another.
other day. And let me tell you're going to win that battle. The one who cares the most.
Because that lion knows, if I give all my energy at this gazelle, and if I miss the gazelle,
if I don't cast a gazelle, I've exerted all this energy and I don't get to eat, I got to waste
another day to eat, I'm in trouble because I won't have the same strength tomorrow. I don't have
the same focus tomorrow. I don't have the same drive tomorrow. I won't have the same energy tomorrow.
So I got to care enough that I see this opportunity, I see that gazelle coming back. I've got to
to get it.
But on the other end, there's good family.
It's like, man, if I can elude this lion, I can live another day.
If I can allude this lion, I can get home to my family.
If I can elude this lion, I can get home to my babies.
If I can elude this lion, I can get my family out of projects.
If I could lose this lion, we can get off welfare.
If I can lose this lion, I can get out of bankruptcy.
If I can lose this lion just one more day, maybe I can get off drugs.
If I can just elude this lion, even in the jungle, the lion in the gazelle, the one who's going to win, the one who cares to much.
But I don't care where you are, love.
I don't even care what your lot is.
I don't care what your mama is.
I don't care what your daddy is.
I don't care what they did.
I don't care how they are.
I don't care your background, I don't care what house you is, I don't care what name are you from,
I don't care what side of the track that you're on, all I'm telling you right now is that
until you care, you can't get to A. Inside your company, who cares the most? Inside your
division, who cares the most? Inside your family, who cares the most? Yeah, man.
If that line was hungry enough, and if he care enough, he gonna get that gazelle.
But if that gazelle is fast enough, an elusive enough, that gazelle, going to get away.
When you wake up in the morning, every day, and you've got to live your life like you are lying.
You've got to live your life like you are that gazelle.
What are you doing with your mind?
What are you doing with your mentality?
What are you doing with your mindset?
that's going to position you to make sure that when this is over, you benefit from this break.
I'm stuck in the house, just like you.
Now I'm wearing mask, just like you.
Now I'm wearing gloves, just like you.
I'm checking on my 96-year-old grandmother, just like you.
I'm checking on my 80-year-old mother, just like you.
I'm making sure my kids are being smart and watching my hands just like you.
But because I'm home, that means I don't care anymore.
Because I'm home don't mean my purpose goes away.
Because I'm home, I can't talk to a microphone, so I talk into a phone, I'm talking to a computer, I talk to software, I talk to Facebook, I'm talking to Instagram, and tonight I'm talking to Twitter.
Why?
You already know.
because I can.
Now, I can ask you a question.
What is it about your future
that you need to do to get to where you want to be?
And once you understand that,
you got to put yourself in a mindset
that you want to disappoint you.
You don't want to disappoint you.
Because if you're okay, disappointing you,
it's almost impossible to get better.
What's that one thing that's holding you back
from your next level?
And once you understand what that one thing is,
Now you're halfway there.
Now we can figure out, okay, if we can improve this one day
and get 10% better every year,
and five years we only recognize your business.
You won't recognize you.
Why?
Because you got exponentially better.
And that's important to me because I'm part of my purpose
and the reason I'm on this earth to help you get better.
You can't afford to stay the same.
Wherever you want to be in life,
just got to care enough, man.
When that setback comes, so?
When that haters shows up.
So?
When that rejects her shows up.
So?
When that setback shows up.
So?
When that doubt shows up.
So?
When that sawness shows up.
So?
It don't matter.
You got to want it bad enough.
I've had my teeth knocked out.
I got screws in my feet.
Let me tell you something.
It don't matter.
Why?
Because I care.
When I got inducting to the Hall of Fame for motivational speakers, I was sitting at the table when a young lady came up to me.
She says, wow, Walter, you're going into the Hall of Fame.
That is so cool.
Aren't you excited?
Say, yeah, I'm excited.
She said, you don't act like it.
But you know what I told?
After getting cut out the NBA, you know what I told?
After making minimum in the NBA, you know what I told?
After cramining my wife's arms, after I got cut out the NBA, you know what I told her?
For the first time in my life, I expected to be here.
For the first time in my life, I shot for the A, and I got it.
For the first time in my life, I went for the throat, and I got it.
For the first time in my life, I went to be number one, and I got it.
For the first time in my life, I wasn't happy with getting a C anymore.
For the first time in my life, I made up my mind to be an A student,
and I expected to be an A student, and you know,
guess what, I got the A.
I talked to people in Australian, in London,
and Cyprus and Africa all over the world
because I just wanted to get to A because I cared enough.
For the first time in my life,
I didn't talk myself out of it.
For the first time in my life,
I wouldn't happen being average.
For the first time in my life,
I made up my mind that I'm gonna be an A student
no matter what.
I'm making people for 19 years.
Now I'm a Hall of Fame speaker,
which means I'm good at what I do.
But the only reason I'm good at what I do, watch this, because I care.
