Speaker 1: But imagine, if you will, being on your death bed
Speaker 1: and standing around your bed the ghost of the dreams,
Speaker 1: the ideas, the abilities, the talents given to you by life.
Speaker 1: But you, for whatever reason, you never pursued those dreams,
Speaker 1: You never acted on those ideas, you never used those gifts,
Speaker 1: you never used those talents. And there they are staring
Speaker 1: at you as you're lying on your bed with large
Speaker 1: angry eyes, saying, we came to you only you could
Speaker 1: have given us life, and now we must die with
Speaker 1: you forever. And the question is, if you die today,
Speaker 1: what dreams, what talents, what abilities, what gifts, what ideas?
Speaker 2: Would die with you?
Speaker 3: To know yourself is the greatest gift you can give yourself. Truly,
Speaker 3: we spend so much time with other people and other
Speaker 3: things in life, but we never invest any time in
Speaker 3: getting to know ourselves. When someone wants to meet with
Speaker 3: you and catch up with you for a coffee or drink,
Speaker 3: you'll make time for them. When was the last time
Speaker 3: you made time for yourself? How would you know what
Speaker 3: you want in life if you don't even spend time
Speaker 3: to get to know yourself. If you have a business,
Speaker 3: you would spend time to get to know the client,
Speaker 3: find out what the client wants in order to provide
Speaker 3: the best service for the client.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 3: So, if you really want to understand what you want
Speaker 3: in life, if you want to know what you want
Speaker 3: or what your purpose in life is, you have to
Speaker 3: spend time with yourself. You have to learn how to concentrate,
Speaker 3: because if you can't concentrate, you won't be able to
Speaker 3: sit there long enough and figure out what it is
Speaker 3: you want in life. And once you know what you
Speaker 3: want in life, you take that powers of concentration and
Speaker 3: the finite amount of energy and you focus it into
Speaker 3: what you want, and that will not to manifest in life.
Speaker 5: Every one of us, in our own lives, we have
Speaker 5: to develop what I call the siritual anchor, the rock,
Speaker 5: the sole compass. And that has nothing to do with religion.
Speaker 5: When I say to spiritual anchor, it's the spiritual anchor
Speaker 5: is when we know who we are in relationship to ourselves.
Speaker 5: We know who we are in relationship to the earth,
Speaker 5: to one another, to our past, to our future. We
Speaker 5: know how we are empowered and what our potential is.
Speaker 5: And once you know that, we then can live our truth.
Speaker 2: Human beings that get obsessed and immersed in any topic
Speaker 2: can become great at it, and so can you. So
Speaker 2: pick what you want and get laser focused. Begin to
Speaker 2: eliminate all the distractions. You are not hungry enough, you
Speaker 2: are not starving enough, and you are not focused enough.
Speaker 2: What are the things that are stealing your focus? Who
Speaker 2: are the people that are stealing your focus? And begin
Speaker 2: to eliminate these distractions. Get laser focused and obsessed on
Speaker 2: what you want. Be starving and hungry to get it.
Speaker 1: Tell yourself, I a move then my circumstances, I am
Speaker 1: more than my demons. I am great, and I will
Speaker 1: give life, give to the work, because this is what
Speaker 1: I was born to do.
Speaker 6: So it's not about who you are today. It's about
Speaker 6: who you want to become and the price you're willing
Speaker 6: to pay to get there. And I'll promise you the
Speaker 6: day that you're willing to pay any price, you'll achieve
Speaker 6: what you want to achieve. If you truly believe that
Speaker 6: human potential is limitless. What do you want to become
Speaker 6: and what price are you willing to pay to get there?
Speaker 7: Don't wait for the perfect timing. The perfect timing is
Speaker 7: never going to come because there's no such thing as
Speaker 7: perfect there's never going to be a day where you
Speaker 7: wake up you're like, this is the perfect day for
Speaker 7: me to finally change all the things of lined up.
Speaker 7: My inbox is completely clear, I have nothing to do today,
Speaker 7: there's no distractions. The kids are finally perfectly on their own.
Speaker 7: Oh my gosh, my husband or wife is finally perfect
Speaker 7: on their own. Everybody is healthy around me. Everything is
Speaker 7: just perfect. The day is sunny and bright, and oh
Speaker 7: my gosh, look at all this goal that just happened
Speaker 7: to appear in front of me is not going to
Speaker 7: happen that You need to say, okay, there is never
Speaker 7: going to be a perfect time. So you need to
Speaker 7: set a D day literally a day in which you
Speaker 7: say that's the day, and then you need to marshal
Speaker 7: all of your motivation, all of your ability to learn
Speaker 7: and develop skills as fast as you can before that day.
Speaker 7: But when that day comes, that's D day. That's the
Speaker 7: day that you go that's the day that you quit,
Speaker 7: and that has to be a real date for you
Speaker 7: and you market on the calendar. That's the day you
Speaker 7: quit the thing. That's the day you walk out. That's
Speaker 7: the day that you leave that situation that is not
Speaker 7: healthy or satisfying or good for you or your soul
Speaker 7: or the people around you. That you have to have
Speaker 7: that date. It has to be scheduled, or you'll never
Speaker 7: do it. You'll just keep saying, oh, you know, one
Speaker 7: day things are going to be. You know, the people
Speaker 7: who say one day, they end up at the end
Speaker 7: with a collection of days that were so far from
Speaker 7: perfect that they're in a state of misery.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 7: They never landed in the land of their dreams because
Speaker 7: they were always marching in something that would miserable to them. Right,
Speaker 7: at some point, the only way the life changes that
Speaker 7: you change your course and don't wait for a perfect day.
Speaker 7: So what's your date?
Speaker 4: You have to be prepared to take any and every
Speaker 4: opportunity that's presented to you. All Right, nothing's just going
Speaker 4: to happen. You know. Everybody say it's all on you.
Speaker 4: It is all on you. There's other people that can
Speaker 4: educate you and help you. But you take these different
Speaker 4: experiences that you learn that stick with you. I mean,
Speaker 4: you may not remember a whole lot when you were
Speaker 4: four years old, but there's certain memories, there's certain things
Speaker 4: you can use them to either harness you to greatness
Speaker 4: or you can use them to kind of just keep
Speaker 4: you where you're at, and most people are just satisfied
Speaker 4: with ad There's always a next level. Your definition of
Speaker 4: greatness and what you want to achieve could be totally
Speaker 4: different than somebody else's. You know, we always say no
Speaker 4: one wants to be first, okay, because they're afraid of
Speaker 4: the consequences that come with doing something first.
Speaker 8: The people in life get what they want are the
Speaker 8: ones that aren't waiting for an external force to validate
Speaker 8: their dreams, to inspire them to give them permission. It's
Speaker 8: the people that realize that success, that happiness, that control
Speaker 8: it comes from the internal force. And what is the
Speaker 8: internal force. It's you.
Speaker 7: It's you.
Speaker 8: It's you being able to realize that no one's going
Speaker 8: to do the work for you. It's you realizing that
Speaker 8: you're never going to feel ready. In fact, even as
Speaker 8: you start working toward the things that you really want
Speaker 8: to do, you're definitely not going to feel ready, and
Speaker 8: you're going to feel outside your comfort zone.
Speaker 7: And that's normal.
Speaker 8: When you start to feel like you're stretching yourself and
Speaker 8: you're sticking your scrawny neck out there and you're taking
Speaker 8: some risks, that's amazing because you're growing.
Speaker 9: It's easy to look at those people who have succeeded
Speaker 9: and assume that they just got lucky. But invariably behind
Speaker 9: the facade of overnight success is an unwavering commitment and
Speaker 9: definiteness of purpose that makes successful people able to do
Speaker 9: whatever needs to be done in order to achieve their
Speaker 9: goal of financial prosperity. Whether your dream is to become
Speaker 9: a famous dancer or to become free of financial worries,
Speaker 9: you must set that goal as your definite major purpose
Speaker 9: and refuse to allow anything to pull you from that course.
Speaker 9: To reinforce the point, consider this, they who have no
Speaker 9: central purpose in their life fall easy prey to petty worries, fears, troubles,
Speaker 9: and self pitying, all of which lead just as surely
Speaker 9: as deliberately planned sins, to failure, unhappiness, and loss. A
Speaker 9: man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart
Speaker 9: and set out to accomplish it. He should make this
Speaker 9: purpose his supreme duty, and should devote himself to its attainment,
Speaker 9: not allowing his thoughts to its attainment, not allowing his
Speaker 9: thoughts to wander away into ephemeral offence's longings and imagining
Speaker 9: erratic action towards your goal will produce an erratic result.
Speaker 9: Our card reminds us that willpower is about the unflinching
Speaker 9: purpose to carry a task you set for yourself to fulfillment.
Speaker 9: If I set for myself a task, be it ever
Speaker 9: so trifling, I shall see it through. How else shall
Speaker 9: I have confidence in myself to do important things? What
Speaker 9: is it that you most want to achieve? Whatever it is,
Speaker 9: decide your goal and remind yourself of it every day
Speaker 9: as soon as you wake up. Make everything you do
Speaker 9: lead to that outcome. Winners are people with definite purpose
Speaker 9: in that take action. Lack of decision making skills is
Speaker 9: near the head of the major causes of failure. So
Speaker 9: if not knowing what your definite major purpose causes obvious
Speaker 9: challenges toward its attainment, then changing your mind every five
Speaker 9: minutes about the target comes a pretty close second. After all,
Speaker 9: how can the invisible forces of the infinite intelligence mobilized
Speaker 9: to convert emotionalized thought into reality if you keep changing
Speaker 9: your mind. Procrastination the opposite of decision. The opposite of
Speaker 9: decision is a common enemy which practically every man must conquer.
Speaker 9: Procrastination is motivated by shame. People put off tasks, either
Speaker 9: consciously or unconsciously, because they believe they will experience shame
Speaker 9: if they complete the task. Perhaps they feel their efforts
Speaker 9: won't be good enough, or that their position of authority
Speaker 9: could be questioned if their attempt is unsuccessful. It is
Speaker 9: therefore safer to procrastinate and blame external sources for a
Speaker 9: lack of results than to try and have to admit failure.
Speaker 9: Procrastinators very often see themselves at the top of the mountain,
Speaker 9: but they don't want to learn how to climb. If
Speaker 9: it's not fence sitting that's slowing you up, but the
Speaker 9: inability to make decisions in the first place. It has
Speaker 9: been thought that those that make decisions quickly are working
Speaker 9: on some sort of sixth sense, and certainly. However, cognitive
Speaker 9: psychologist Gary Klean, with his studies into decision making processes
Speaker 9: in life and death situation, shows there is something less
Speaker 9: esoteric at play too. He concluded that far from being
Speaker 9: weighed down by knowledge, information and memories, those with experience
Speaker 9: in a certain area were able to assess situations and
Speaker 9: mentally simulate their outcome faster than a numbers could get
Speaker 9: a notebook out experience and understanding allow decision makers to
Speaker 9: recognize situations and quickly commit to a course of action
Speaker 9: based on that extensive knowledge bank. So, building information, knowledge,
Speaker 9: and experience, and often through failure, is an essential piece
Speaker 9: of the success puzzle. There is no more miserable human
Speaker 9: being than one in whom nothing is habitual but indecision.
Speaker 9: Your main job in life is to create the mental
Speaker 9: equivalent within yourself of what you want to realize and
Speaker 9: enjoy in your outer world. Your focus must be on
Speaker 9: creating the beliefs within yourself that are consistent with the
Speaker 9: great success you want to be in your outer world.
Speaker 9: You achieve this by challenging yourself limiting beliefs, rejecting them,
Speaker 9: and then acting as if they did not exist. You
Speaker 9: reinforce the development of new, life enhancing beliefs by increasing
Speaker 9: your knowledge and skills in your field to the point
Speaker 9: where you feel equal to any demand or challenge. You
Speaker 9: accelerate the development of new positive beliefs by setting bigger
Speaker 9: and more exciting goals in every area. Finally, you act
Speaker 9: continually as if you were already the person that you
Speaker 9: desire to be. Your aim is to reap program your
Speaker 9: subconscious mind for success by creating the mental equivalent in
Speaker 9: everything you do or say, behave consistent with your new
Speaker 9: self image. You develop new beliefs by taking actions consistent
Speaker 9: with those beliefs. You act as if you already believe
Speaker 9: that you have these capabilities and competencies. You behave like
Speaker 9: a positive, optimistic, and cheerful person toward everyone. You act
Speaker 9: as if your success were already guaranteed. You act as
Speaker 9: if you have a secret guarantee of success and only
Speaker 9: you know about it. You realize that you are developing,
Speaker 9: shaping and controlling the evolution of your own character and
Speaker 9: personality by everything that you do and say every single day.
Speaker 9: Since you become what you think about. You should only
Speaker 9: say and do those things that are consistent with your
Speaker 9: self ideal, the person you most aspire to be in
Speaker 9: your long term future ideal. You should only think and
Speaker 9: talk about the things that are moving you toward becoming
Speaker 9: the person you want to be and toward achieving the
Speaker 9: goals that you want to achieve the goal. Keep your
Speaker 9: words and actions consistent. Your beliefs are always manifested in
Speaker 9: your words and actions. Make sure that everything you say
Speaker 9: and do from now on is consistent with the beliefs
Speaker 9: that you want to have and the person that you
Speaker 9: want to become. In time, you will replace more and
Speaker 9: more of your self limiting beliefs with life enhancing beliefs.
Speaker 9: Over time, you will completely reprogram yourself for success. When
Speaker 9: this occurs, the transformation that takes place in your outer
Speaker 9: life will amaze you and all the people around you.
