1
00:00:33,928 --> 00:00:36,254
Let me tell you something you already know.

2
00:00:36,254 --> 00:00:38,724
The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows.

3
00:00:38,724 --> 00:00:40,953
It's a very mean and nasty place

4
00:00:40,953 --> 00:00:42,662
and I don't care how tough you are

5
00:00:42,662 --> 00:00:44,864
it will beat you to your knees and keep

6
00:00:44,941 --> 00:00:47,299
you there permanently if you let it.

7
00:00:51,193 --> 00:00:52,670
Life is tough, that's a given.

8
00:00:54,884 --> 00:00:58,087
When you stand up, you're gonna be shoved back down.


9
00:00:58,340 --> 00:01:00,840
When you're down, you're gonna be stepped on.

10
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,903
My advice to you doesn't come with a lot of bells and whistles.

11
00:01:04,903 --> 00:01:08,909
It's no secret, you'll fall down, you stumble,

12
00:01:08,909 --> 00:01:11,792
you get pushed, you land square on your face.

13
00:01:18,806 --> 00:01:21,819
Life is scary. Get used to it.

14
00:01:21,819 --> 00:01:24,702
There are no magical fixes,

15
00:01:24,702 --> 00:01:26,754
it's all up to you.

16
00:01:29,834 --> 00:01:33,651
You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life.

17
00:01:33,651 --> 00:01:36,232
But it ain't about how hard you're hit.

18
00:01:36,232 --> 00:01:39,542
It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward

19
00:01:39,542 --> 00:01:42,980
How much you can take and keep moving forward

20
00:01:42,980 --> 00:01:44,610
That's how winning is done!

21
00:01:46,899 --> 00:01:50,904
A lot of people in this world, search endlessly

22
00:01:50,904 --> 00:01:55,731
for some complex, magical formula to understand

23
00:01:55,731 --> 00:01:58,631
why some people are successful

24
00:01:58,631 --> 00:02:00,600
and why others are not.

25
00:02:01,385 --> 00:02:07,614
Greatness, is not this wonderful, esoteric, illusive,

26
00:02:07,614 --> 00:02:15,680
god-like feature that only the special among us will ever taste.

27
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:21,097
It's something that truly exists, in, all of us!

28
00:02:21,097 --> 00:02:23,433
The heaviness of being successful,

29
00:02:23,433 --> 00:02:26,287
was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again.

30
00:02:26,287 --> 00:02:28,483
I'm convinced the only thing that kept me going,

31
00:02:28,483 --> 00:02:30,784
was that I loved what I did.

32
00:02:30,784 --> 00:02:32,846
You've got to find what you love.

33
00:02:32,846 --> 00:02:36,408
There's a certain delusional quality,

34
00:02:37,024 --> 00:02:40,397
that all successful people have to have.

35
00:02:41,089 --> 00:02:44,829
When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe,

36
00:02:44,829 --> 00:02:46,428
then you'll be successful.

37
00:02:46,511 --> 00:02:51,980
The only thing you care about when you trying to breathe is to get some fresh air.That's it!

38
00:02:52,286 --> 00:02:56,284
And when you get to the point where all you wanna do is be is successful

39
00:02:56,391 --> 00:02:58,874
as bad as you wanna breathe then you will be successful.

40
00:02:59,860 --> 00:03:04,026
but what is most important is don't be afraid to fail

41
00:03:04,026 --> 00:03:08,167
you can't always win but don't be afraid of making decisions

42
00:03:09,546 --> 00:03:12,037
You might never fail on the scale I did,

43
00:03:12,037 --> 00:03:15,939
but some failure in life is inevitable.

44
00:03:15,939 --> 00:03:20,135
It is impossible to live without failing at something,

45
00:03:20,135 --> 00:03:24,915
unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all

46
00:03:24,915 --> 00:03:27,467
in which case you have failed by default.

47
00:03:27,672 --> 00:03:31,226
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like:

48
00:03:31,226 --> 00:03:37,207
'If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.'

49
00:03:37,207 --> 00:03:39,123
It made an impression on me,

50
00:03:39,123 --> 00:03:42,177
and since then, for the past 33 years,

51
00:03:42,177 --> 00:03:44,669
I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself:

52
00:03:44,669 --> 00:03:50,166
"If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?"

53
00:03:50,166 --> 00:03:52,089
Because Almost everything

54
00:03:52,089 --> 00:03:57,079
all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure

55
00:03:57,079 --> 00:04:02,755
these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.

56
00:04:02,755 --> 00:04:05,630
Remembering that you are Going To Die

57
00:04:05,630 --> 00:04:08,746
is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking

58
00:04:08,746 --> 00:04:10,829
you have something to lose.

59
00:04:10,829 --> 00:04:14,522
distinctly different about me is

60
00:04:14,522 --> 00:04:17,916
I'm not afraid to die on a treadmill.

61
00:04:17,916 --> 00:04:20,138
You might have more talent than me,

62
00:04:20,138 --> 00:04:22,472
you might be smarter than me,

63
00:04:22,472 --> 00:04:24,331
But if we get on the treadmill

64
00:04:24,331 --> 00:04:25,573
there's two things:

65
00:04:25,573 --> 00:04:26,839
You're getting off first,

66
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,940
or I'm Going To Die!

67
00:04:28,940 --> 00:04:31,608
It's really that simple.

68
00:04:31,608 --> 00:04:33,955
i'm gonna give him two minutes and i'll finish him.

69
00:04:39,677 --> 00:04:45,337
then i promise he won't make it 2 to 3 minutes

70
00:04:45,337 --> 00:04:48,065
in the kickboxing ring with me this time.

71
00:04:49,803 --> 00:04:53,827
Its like you have to save your own life

72
00:04:56,381 --> 00:05:00,204
nobody's going to be able to save it for you.

73
00:05:00,204 --> 00:05:03,666
So we have to do what we have to do,

74
00:05:03,666 --> 00:05:05,749
no matter what it is!

75
00:05:08,119 --> 00:05:10,369
this is what i believe

76
00:05:10,369 --> 00:05:13,280
and i willing to die for it

77
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:14,954
Period!

78
00:05:14,954 --> 00:05:21,059
No matter how bad it is...or how bad it gets

79
00:05:21,059 --> 00:05:25,143
I'm going to make it!

80
00:05:25,143 --> 00:05:26,912
say that to yourself everyday.

81
00:05:26,994 --> 00:05:29,954
our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate

82
00:05:29,954 --> 00:05:32,844
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

83
00:05:32,844 --> 00:05:36,063
i'm motivated by fear.

84
00:05:38,057 --> 00:05:43,084
What we are trying to do, during all these discussions and talks here,

85
00:05:43,084 --> 00:05:50,390
is to see if we cannot radically bring about a transformation of the mind.

86
00:05:50,390 --> 00:05:52,811
not accept things as they are.

87
00:05:52,811 --> 00:05:55,993
But to understand it, go into it, examine it,

88
00:05:55,993 --> 00:06:00,390
give your heart and your mind, with everything that you have, to find out

89
00:06:00,390 --> 00:06:03,381
a way of living differently.

90
00:06:03,381 --> 00:06:07,601
That depends on you, and not on someone else,

91
00:06:08,340 --> 00:06:12,183
because in this there is no teacher, no pupil

92
00:06:12,183 --> 00:06:17,732
there is no leader; there is no guru; there is no Master, no Saviour.

93
00:06:17,732 --> 00:06:23,815
You yourself are the teacher and the pupil; you are the Master; you are the guru; you are the leader,

94
00:06:23,815 --> 00:06:25,783
you are everything!

95
00:06:27,858 --> 00:06:32,248
And to understand is to transform what is.

96
00:06:34,863 --> 00:06:37,010
You know, when you get old, in life

97
00:06:37,010 --> 00:06:39,071
things get taken from you.

98
00:06:39,071 --> 00:06:42,208
I mean, that's... that's... that's a part of life.

99
00:06:42,208 --> 00:06:46,574
But, you only learn that when you start losin' stuff.

100
00:06:47,606 --> 00:06:50,267
You find out life's this game of inches.

101
00:06:52,273 --> 00:06:55,539
On this team we fight for that inch.

102
00:06:56,463 --> 00:07:00,493
On this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us

103
00:07:00,493 --> 00:07:02,703
to pieces for that inch.

104
00:07:03,688 --> 00:07:07,379
We claw with our fingernails for that inch.

105
00:07:08,195 --> 00:07:12,411
Because we know when add up all those inches,

106
00:07:12,411 --> 00:07:16,518
that's gonna make the fucking difference between winning and losing!

107
00:07:18,732 --> 00:07:21,746
Between living and dying!

108
00:07:23,146 --> 00:07:26,082
I'll tell you this, in any fight

109
00:07:26,082 --> 00:07:30,321
it's the guy whose willing to die whose gonna win that inch.

110
00:07:30,921 --> 00:07:34,210
Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth.

111
00:07:34,210 --> 00:07:36,088
But ya gotta be willing to take the hits,

112
00:07:36,088 --> 00:07:38,737
and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be

113
00:07:38,737 --> 00:07:41,399
because of him, or her, or anybody!

114
00:07:41,399 --> 00:07:44,813
Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!

115
00:07:46,634 --> 00:07:49,882
And I know, if I'm gonna have any life anymore

116
00:07:49,882 --> 00:07:54,370
it's because I'm still willing to fight and die for that inch

117
00:07:55,888 --> 00:07:58,242
because that's what living is!

118
00:07:59,336 --> 00:08:01,413
the six inches in front of your face.

119
00:08:08,111 --> 00:08:12,865
We get one opportunity in life. One chance in life

120
00:08:12,865 --> 00:08:15,362
to do whatever you’re gonna do.

121
00:08:15,362 --> 00:08:18,764
To lay your foundation. To make whatever mark you’re gonna make.

122
00:08:19,349 --> 00:08:22,545
whatever legacy you’re gonna leave. Leave your legacy.

123
00:08:23,361 --> 00:08:25,553
And it’s found through effort.

124
00:08:26,692 --> 00:08:28,643
Wins and losses come a dime a dozen.

125
00:08:29,367 --> 00:08:32,795
But effort? Nobody can judge effort.

126
00:08:32,795 --> 00:08:38,798
Because Effort is between you and you. Effort aint got nothing to do with nobody else.

127
00:08:40,297 --> 00:08:42,908
So that team that think they ready to seen you?

128
00:08:42,908 --> 00:08:45,506
They think what they seen on film.

129
00:08:45,506 --> 00:08:47,839
They ain’t saw what film shows.

130
00:08:48,401 --> 00:08:50,707
Because every day is a new day.

131
00:08:50,707 --> 00:08:53,560
Every moment is a new moment.

132
00:08:53,560 --> 00:08:56,565
So now you got to go out and show them that you a different creature

133
00:08:56,565 --> 00:08:57,718
Now!

134
00:08:58,537 --> 00:09:01,788
now than I was five minutes ago.

135
00:09:01,788 --> 00:09:03,844
Cause I’m pissed off for greatness.

136
00:09:07,251 --> 00:09:10,962
Thanks For Watching
