You will cry.
There's some stuff that will happen in your life
that will make you cry, it's okay.
It's a part of the deal.
If you can't handle pain, you don't want success.
You gotta look at life, when life knocks you down
and say, this all you got?
Is this it?
I was born in the dark, shaped in the dark,
molded by the dark.
I will break you.
You recycle your pain.
You use your pain.
And some of you are not successful because every single time you run up against
a trial, every time you run up against a tribulation,
you stop.
And what I'm here to tell you is if you tell that thing
I'm here just like you here and I promise you,
I ain't leaving without the degree.
I will not leave without that goal.
I will not leave without that dream.
I will not leave this university until I'm successful.
I will not leave this job.
I will not leave this client.
I will not leave this opportunity until I get it.
And you're gonna have to fight and fight
and fight and fight.
And most of you won't be successful, not because you can't do it,
but you can't outlast your old you to get to your new you.
You must have patience and engage in
consistent action.
Look at your belief system every single day and stick with it.
Don't rush the process, trust the process.
Everybody dreams of greatness.
Everybody wants to be great.
Everybody dreams of greatness, wishes to be great,
talks about great, idolizes the greats,
everybody wants to be great.
But only a few when that moment presents itself,
only a few when that time has come,
only a few are willing to step up to the moment
and actually execute.
When you're dealing with another human being, it's not how tall he is,
When you're dealing with another human being, it's not how big he is,
When you're dealing with another human being, it's not how strong he is.
At the end of the day it comes down to will.
Your dream counting on you, push.
Ain't nobody about to give you no cookies and ice cream,
push.
It's alive.
It's inside.
How do you know?
You feel it.
You dream about it.
You eat and sleep it every day.
When people talk to you, you tell them this is what I'm gonna do, so push.
Just push past the pain, push.
Don't quit, don't give up, push.
Push your way to success.
It's gonna rain sometimes, I will.
You're gonna feel discouraged sometimes, I will.
No matter what the obstacle, I will.
I must.
Live extreme and push your boundaries.
Why?
Simply because there will be no other time for you to do this.
You can dream of these things but understand you can also achieve them.
The moments that take your breath away are the ones that count.
I don't care if you've been beaten to the floor,
if your legs are too tired to lift that weight, break through that barrier and create new
ones for you.
When there's a will, there's a way.
When you truly need something, you can find a way
and you stop at nothing to reach it.
The inches we need are everywhere around us.
They're in every break of the game, every minute, every second.
In any fight, it's the guy
who's willing to die who's gonna win that inch.
It's not easy reaching your goal.
It's not easy changing your life.
It's not easy trying to build a business
and people are negative and saying no every day.
It takes a lot of guts.
Bill collectors are calling and your phone might be cut off.
And you might lose your job, it takes a lot of guts.
You don't have nothing but linen in the corner of your pockets,
you're out here talking about living your dream.
And people are laughing at you.
And they're doubting you.
But let me tell you, I believe in revenge like Frank Sinatra,
he said, the best revenge is massive success.
It takes guts, you gotta dig down deep to gut it out,
keep on going again and again and again.
It's hard, no easy is not an option.
However, ladies and gentlemen, what you will discover is
that it's worth it.
