Now before our episode begins, here's a quick word from our sponsors. Hey there, good morning, and welcome to Wake Me Up. I want to start by sharing a profound truth with you, one that has been echoed through history by individuals who dared to dream, who dared to strive for greatness,

and who dared to accomplish the seemingly impossible. And here is that truth. You can do anything. You can achieve things beyond your wildest dreams, things that no one ever thought possible. But there is a catch. You can't do everything. Because our lives are limited by one thing and one thing only.

Time. Today, you'll see why your potential is far greater than you ever thought. And through stories of those who came before us, you'll see how to make the most out of this potential. You'll see that whatever it is you want to bring about in this world, you can do it. But first, wherever you are, whatever you're doing, just take a moment to pause.

Nothing great in this world is accomplished without intention. So bring an intention of yours to mind. An idea, a belief, a dream, something you want to bring about in your life. Maybe it's a goal, a health, outcome, a business idea, a relationship, and whatever it is, see it clearly in your mind's eye. Fill all the way up, allowing this intention to touch every cell of your body. And as you exhale, repeat to yourself, I can do this.

Again, breathe in, filling up with that intention. Exhale, repeating, I can do this. Last time, breathe in. and really say it with conviction this time. I can do this. Fantastic. Now, if you're listening to this episode while lying down, I encourage you to get up, get started.

Wherever you are in life, you don't have to move a mountain right this moment. But an active mind and body are a creative mind and body. Those who change the world, who live happy and fulfilling lives, lives, they don't do it by lying around all day. Those people not only believe it, they act it.

You see, the world is filled with stories of remarkable people who defied the odds, who broke barriers, and who transformed their dreams into reality. Consider the luminaries who came before us, like Thomas Edison, who brought light into a Dark World, or Rosa Parks, who sparked a movement by refusing to give up her seat on a bus. And then there's others like Steve Jobs, who revolutionized the way we connect and communicate. These individuals didn't bind themselves by limitations. They understood the power of self-belief and choice. But my message today is not solely about these people who created.

ripples that still echo through time. No, this message is for you. And it's about you, your journey, and your capacity to change the world. My friend, you can do anything. But here's the key. You can't do everything. The world is vast. Time is finite.

And your energy, love, and attention are precious resources. So what is it that truly matters to you? What do you want to see in the world? These are questions that may seem daunting, but they demand exploration. They're questions that invite you to reflect on your passions, your values, and your purpose, because it is in the pursuit of what truly matters that you will find your greatest potential.

Think about your own. own unique talents, the sparks of inspiration that ignite you from within. Think about the issues that keep you up at night, the ones that you can't help but care deeply about. Think about the change that you wish to see in the world. And as you ponder these questions, remember that every great accomplishment, every monumental shift in history, began with a single spark of determination. You see, it's not about spreading yourself thin or chasing every fleeting ambition.

It's about choosing, with conviction, what resonates deeply within your heart and soul. It's about committing to that which matters most to you, and then pouring your heart and soul into it. My friend is where the magic happens. That's what changes the world. That's what creates. creates ripples that echo on forever throughout time, even long after you're gone.

So take a moment to envision the world that you want to create. Imagine a world where kindness and compassion prevail. Envision a world where innovation and creativity flourish. Picture a world that you want to see. And let that vision fuel your determination. and when you are faced with the inevitable challenge of adversity, remember that even the most renowned achievers had setbacks and challenges. Thomas Edison endured countless failures before the light bulb illuminated the world.

Rosa Parks faced danger when she stood her ground. Steve Jobs faced rejection and ridicule because his ideas were so different, change the world. You must go against the grain. You must swim against the current. And you will hear words of discouragement. You will have detractors and haters. And I may surprise you by saying that you shouldn't ignore them because they will highlight your weak points. And that is something you need. But you shouldn't let them stop you either. Allow them to make you better. Allow them to make you better. stronger, smarter. Because those who change the world,

those who create the life they dream of, they choose to persevere, just like you do. They choose to focus their energy, their love and attention on what truly matters to them. And in doing so, they change the world forever.

They ignite sparks that continue to shine bright, rightly today. So my friend, as you face the prospect of a new day, filled with opportunities, I'll leave you with the same thought I began with. You can do anything, but you can't do everything. Choose wisely. Pursue what matters to you relentlessly. And let your actions be guided by the change you wish to see. If we all do this, Then together, we will create a world that reflects the best of humanity, a world that thrives because of individuals like you,

who dare to dream and dare to act. So may your journey be filled with purpose, love, and boundless accomplishment. I know you can see it in your mind. And that means you can do it. Now you just have to go out, get started. and never stop chasing it. Well, that's all for today. Thanks so much for tuning in
