Believe By Mateusz M - Motivational Video

  • 0:01 - 0:04
    Before April 1954,
  • 0:05 - 0:08
    the common belief, the universal belief
  • 0:08 - 0:12
    because it had been tried again & again & again, and people had failed
  • 0:12 - 0:16
    the belief was that man was not physically capable
  • 0:16 - 0:20
    of breaking the 4 minute barrier, that he could not
  • 0:20 - 0:24
    run a mile in less than 4 minutes.
  • 0:25 - 0:30
    When something happens to them, they begin to believe that that's the way it is.
  • 0:30 - 0:32
    That's the way it's always been.
  • 0:32 - 0:36
    And they can't see the possibility of it being any different.
  • 0:36 - 0:38
    (250 yards to go and Bannister takes over)
  • 0:38 - 0:41
    (watch his giant stride take him to the front)
  • 0:41 - 0:43
    (as he races the last lung-bursting... )
  • 0:43 - 0:46
    Roger Bannister came along
  • 0:46 - 0:49
    and he broke the 4-minute barrier!
  • 0:50 - 0:52
    Since that time, up to this day
  • 0:52 - 0:56
    Over 20,000 people have done it...
  • 0:56 - 0:58
    including high-school kids!
  • 0:58 - 1:00
    Twenty thousand people! What changed?
  • 1:00 - 1:03
    Here's what happened when they got on the track:
  • 1:03 - 1:05
    They knew it had been done!
  • 1:05 - 1:06
    And because they knew it had been done,
  • 1:06 - 1:09
    there was a new belief!
  • 1:11 - 1:14
    ...about this barrier that was "unreachable".
  • 1:14 - 1:19
    And those twenty thousand people got in a race believing
  • 1:19 - 1:21
    knowing in their heart that someone had done it
  • 1:21 - 1:23
    that it's possible
  • 1:23 - 1:24
    that they could do it
  • 1:24 - 1:26
    if someone can make that dream become a reality,
  • 1:26 - 1:29
    then you can make YOUR dream become reality
  • 1:57 - 2:00
    Eyesight and mindsight...
  • 2:00 - 2:04
    Eyesight is judging on what you see...
  • 2:04 - 2:06
    ...judging according to appearances...
  • 2:06 - 2:11
    but mindsight is how you interpret what you see.
  • 2:11 - 2:18
    One guy said, "its not possible, it's over, I'm finished! I can't do it. I can't make it."
  • 2:18 - 2:20
    He surrendered!
  • 2:20 - 2:25
    "I've faced rejection again and again, I'm not going anymore! There are no jobs out there!"
  • 2:25 - 2:31
    But this other guy, he felt that in spite of the "no's" and rejections...
  • 2:31 - 2:36
    ...in spite of how bad the economy is, in spite of what the newspapers are saying...
  • 2:36 - 2:42
    that it's possible. That "somebody somewhere, will give me a job."
  • 2:42 - 2:46
    He just kept going! Thinking it was possible.
  • 2:46 - 2:50
    And guess what ladies and gentlemen? That's what we have to do with our dreams.
  • 2:50 - 2:55
    Because things happen to ya in life, that you can never ever anticipate.
  • 2:55 - 3:02
    And many times when those things happen, you wanna give up!
  • 3:02 - 3:05
    Easy is not an option.
  • 3:06 - 3:09
    It's hard living! Life is hard...
  • 3:10 - 3:16
    See it's hard when, when you are forty-nine years old, been working on a job for seventeen years...
  • 3:16 - 3:22
    ...and they come in and tell you "you're finished" and give you one week's severance pay.
  • 3:22 - 3:24
    And you gotta start all over again.
  • 3:25 - 3:31
    It's hard handling just the tragedies of life. It's hard.
  • 3:31 - 3:36
    When you're working on something, and, and you put everything you have in it...
  • 3:36 - 3:42
    ...and it doesn't work out -- you lose your money and other people's money.
  • 3:44 - 3:48
    Know what I discovered? When you're working at your dream, somebody said:
  • 3:48 - 3:51
    "the harder the battle, the sweeter the victory!"
  • 3:51 - 3:53
    It's good to ya -- why? See...
  • 3:53 - 3:57
    ...what you become in the process that's more important than the dream!
  • 3:57 - 3:58
    That's far more important!
  • 3:58 - 4:00
    The kind of person you become
  • 4:00 - 4:01
    the character that you build,
  • 4:01 - 4:03
    the courage that you develop,
  • 4:03 - 4:05
    the faith that you're manifesting!
  • 4:05 - 4:09
    Oh it's, it's something that-- you get up, you look yourself in the mirror...
  • 4:09 - 4:13
    you're a different kind of person, you walk with a different kind of spirit.
  • 4:14 - 4:19
    You've got to have that kind of courage, that type of determination, if you wanna make it happen.
  • 4:19 - 4:20
    It's you.
  • 4:20 - 4:24
    You've got to take personal responsibility to make it happen.
  • 4:27 - 4:29
    You must have faith!
  • 4:30 - 4:32
    You've gotta believe in yourself!
  • 4:32 - 4:34
    You've got to believe in your abilities,
  • 4:34 - 4:38
    you`ve got to believe in your service, your company, your ideas!
  • 4:39 - 4:40
    unquestionably!
  • 4:41 - 4:44
    You`ve got to have faith, and that faith gives you...
  • 4:44 - 4:45
    patience!
  • 4:45 - 4:49
    But it`s not gonna happen as quickly as you want it to happen!
  • 4:49 - 4:54
    New Voice: It`s yo` dream -- if you want it to happen -- get yo' butt up and make it happen!
  • 4:55 - 4:57
    If you want it to happen -- rise and grind!
  • 4:58 - 5:00
    I dare you not to go back to sleep!
  • 5:00 - 5:01
    I dare you to get up!
  • 5:01 - 5:04
    And I dare you to chase yo' dreams!
  • 5:04 - 5:07
    Old Voice: It's possible you can win!
  • 5:09 - 5:14
    Whatever comes to you, don't run from it. Don't try and duck it, like most people do...
  • 5:14 - 5:15
    ...drive toward it!
  • 5:23 - 5:26
    You wanna make your dreams come true? You gotta stay focused!
  • 5:26 - 5:28
    Some people'd rather get even, than get ahead!
  • 5:28 - 5:31
    Stay focused on where you wanna go!
  • 5:38 - 5:42
    Where're you going with your life?
