there are two rules that I always adhere
to and that is to work hard and be brave
and I think the essence of hard work is
one that's pretty straightforward is
that you'll never be the best-looking
you'll never be the tallest most
talented most capable you'll never have
the most money there will always be
someone who's better at whatever you're
doing them with what you then you are
but you can always be the
hardest-working person in the room and I
think the hardest-working person will
always win stop comparing yourself to
others
so the first thing you do is stop
focusing on other people instead focus
on being the best version of you that
you can then you'll recognize that you
deserve to sit at the big table with
everybody else
after you've become the best that you
can be now once you've accepted that you
have as much right to success and much
right to succeed as anybody else the
next step is learning how to talk the
talk you have to get fluent in the
language of success so you speak it with
ease
surround yourself with people who've
accomplished their dreams and immerse
yourself in the culture of achievement
and before you know it you're going to
be speaking the life of your dreams into
existence and like I said before we each
have a guilt but too many people miss
out because they refuse to find the
least on their guilt you keep looking
for it outside of you stop think with
yourself what is it that you do the
absolute best with the least amount of
effort that she'll give
but if you are constantly looking
outside of yourself and you don't latch
on to your guilt you will never find
your perfect if you want to succeed you
must commit to your whole gift and
embrace it the first step is getting
completely and rudely honest enough to
say I am tired of myself when you say
I'm sick and tired of being sick and
tired
that's the facilitator of change that's
when you're ready to say these words no
more excuses no more excuses I believe
there's a huge difference in the way
that successful people and unsuccessful
people think and I believe that success
itself is not some big mystery that
people haven't figured out before even
though when we are struggling and we're
fighting and we're just trying to make
it through day by day and get better and
better and better it can feel like this
arduous unknowable process but success
has been figured out and we all know
it's a mindset game I mean most of
success is just about how we use our
psychology I remember when I was going
to start my business and I really wanted
to be good at it you know I was trying
to become an author and a speaker and do
these types of videos and do some online
training for people on the topics of
motivation and marketing and you know
some all these people are saying well
Brendan you know you may or may not be
successful of that you're you know blah
and I thought weird thing it's not like
there's a trait of successful people you
look across history and successful
people it's not they're not from a given
background they don't come from a
specific economic stature they're not in
a position where you know they're their
one demographic or another demonsaw
louver I mean we've got thousands of
collective years of history people
succeed some people do some people don't
and I think it more comes down to how do
we manage our mind and how do we manage
our days and I think that there's a
difference between successful people and
unsuccessful people in the way they
particularly think about approaching
something new you know I think
unsuccessful people when they have a big
dream and they start thinking about
what's going to be required to
accomplish that dream they get very
limiting in their beliefs about
themselves
as possible and specifically they say
three types of things you know the first
thing they often say is well you know I
don't know how to do that so they stop
they say you know I I don't have those
things so they stop or they say I don't
know you know I'm not like those people
I'm not like that and so they stopped
but successful people have a different
way they have the same thing everybody
dreams you dream I dream successful
people dream people just starting out
everybody dreams everyone has the vision
everyone if they can just take five
minutes today and think about their
lives we could all come up with ways to
improve our lives and reach another
level of success joy happiness
achievement contribution fulfillment
soul you know we can all elevate but the
challenge is that some successful people
they keep stopping when they think of
what they currently know have or are but
successful people say well I want to do
that but I don't know how to do that but
instead of stopping they say well then
my job is to go learn that they take
their current limitation and they put it
on their agenda as a job to do as a
thing to figure out a thing to make
happen instead of saying well I don't
have that they say well then my job is
to go build that or I'm not like that
then they say well then my job is to go
become more of that become that person
who could accomplish those things you
know when I was starting to do online
marketing for the first time and and I
don't know if you know how much of my
story you know but when I started doing
online marketing I was literally
bankrupt and I went from place of
bankruptcy to the point where I've
really committed to becoming successful
at it and in 18 months I made four point
eight million dollars four point six
collected and he was a huge leap right
in in indifference from bankrupt to
multi-millionaire in the span of 18
months but what made that breakthrough
was it that I had new opportunity it
wasn't that I had new technologies it
was like wow there's the internet now
those things were already there it went
I went from this level of thinking to
this level of danger I used to say well
I I don't know how to build a web page
so I said agenda figure out how to build
a web page and I spent hours and hours
and hours at night on weekends from my
job figuring out how to do that and I
said well I don't have one of those
lists you know I don't have any
subscribers nobody knows who I am so
it's a job go build a list go get
subscribers go add value and content now
the marketplace and they'll come I mean
just keep putting stuff out there and I
also didn't say oh my gosh well I have
that dream I can't have that because I'm
not like that because I was in a public
speaker I didn't know how to do video I
wasn't like well I'm not one of those
video people well I'm not a public
speaker so I said you know what I have
to go learn that art I have to go become
a better speaker a better communicator I
have to go become more confident I have
to go become a person capable of doing
these things I have to change myself to
get there I can't wait for circumstances
to change so I can have my dream then
our dreams will never happen we have to
get to the point of maturity in our
lives where we say okay two things are
going to change my life something new is
going to come into my life and make me
lucky and blessed and maybe I can't
count on that forever and maybe now
instead I have to consciously design my
life and say okay now if I want to
change if I want my dream something new
has to come from me I'm going to become
a better person I'm going to become a
person who is more optimistic who is
more confident who is more driven not
because I am that now but because we can
grow that you can become the type of
person who needs to you need to be to
achieve your ideal life you can start
today living from your highest ideals
your highest sense of self your
strongest sense of self you don't need
permission you don't need a guy like me
to look at the video camera say you have
now permission but it's been waiting for
it you have permission it's like at some
point in your life you just say okay I
have permission to become my best self
and by becoming your best self you start
to achieve your best things you start to
contribute better things you start to
become a better human being you can do
that now today so next time you're
thinking about a big dream don't think
about the things that well I don't know
how to do that and stop think I don't
know how so set it up on your calendar
to go
learn those things I don't have that
then set it up step by step to go build
that I'm not like that then set it up
step by step to go develop those skill
sets and those competencies so you can
become that and ultimately you can
achieve that dream it's there it's
waiting for you don't stop birds of a
feather flock together you run around
with losers
you will end up a loser unconsciously
unconsciously you will pick up their
ways you'll pick up their habits you'll
pick up most importantly their attitude
about life if you around cynical
negative people all the time you will
become cynical and negative so you got
to watch yourself many of us are living
out the lives of other people living out
their conclusions living out of their
consciousness the other thing is that
you begin to look at looking at your
life and looking at what it is that you
want to achieve another crucial thing
that you must do is align yourself with
powerful people align yourself with
people that can encourage you people
that can empower you people that you can
learn from people that you can grow from
that's very important if you have people
around you that can contribute to your
growth when I want to become a speaker I
join the National Speakers Association I
wanted to be around the doctor Norman
Vincent appeals the zig Zigler the
Dwayne dyers because I want to be around
people that were doing what I wanted to
do I want to learn from this and you
want to do that too you want to align
yourself with people who think like you
people who dream like you people who one
water like people that are stretching
and searching and seeking from a higher
ground in life as opposed to the
majority of people somebody said always
tried to get on top in life because it's
the bottom that's overcrowded and so you
don't want to be on the bottom so it's
easy to be on the bottom it doesn't
taking the effort to be a loser doesn't
take any motivation any Drive in order
to stay down there on a low level but it
calls on everything in you ladies and
gentlemen you have to harness your will
to say I'm going to challenge myself
sometimes I have to pull myself out of
insuk come on
I think I knew I should do I don't do
things that shouldn't do I do I found
that the biggest enemy you have to deal
with is yourself as an old African
proverb that says if there's no enemy
within the enemy outside can do us no
harm so think about that so if you begin
to look toward making this your decade
as you begin to look to what making your
life different you begin to look at
yourself you got to redefine yourself
who are you right now
and who must you become in order to
create what you want what has to change
about you what is it that you're doing
right now that would be a liability for
you as you begin to look toward the
future and take inventory of yourself
what is it about you right now that
you've got to leave this behind because
this no longer fits looking at where you
want to go and the kind of person that
you must become the kind of standards
that you have for you what is it that
you must do differently repeat after me
please if you want to keep on getting
what you're getting keep on doing what
you're doing see that doesn't take an
Einstein for them all right
that makes sense unless you change your
pattern unless you change the way you're
thinking unless you change your behavior
you're going to continue to produce the
results of your life see all of us the
winners but some of us are producing
results that we don't want and so all
you have to look at your game plan look
at your strategy however that you have
been be what is it that you've been
doing to produce this so you have a
director you are the producer you're
writing the script you're the star of
your life and as you begin to look at
your life you can decide whether or not
it's a smash and whether or not it's a
flop that's in your hands look at your
life look at where you want to go don't
worry about your circumstances don't
worry about your age have a print it was
up in age over 70 and she wanted to
build a multi-million dollar complex the
name is dr. Johnny Coleman lenders and
Baker say you can't do that you're too
old she ignored them that building now
stands ladies and gentlemen a multi
million dollars structure but there are
a lot of people who would have listened
to that a lot of people that would not
have even gotten to that point they were
to talk themselves out of even going
down to the bank to ask for it because
they've already said no to themselves
see is time now if you want to make this
your decade you've got to start saying
yes to your life you've got to start
saying yes to your dreams yes to your
unfolding future yes to your potential
as opposed to saying no see 87% of our
self talk is negative so you've got to
make a conscious deliberate determined
effort to say yes to your dreams why not
why not me don't spend time like most
people going through life complaining
don't try and get on talk shows to tell
everybody how life is done you wrong
here's what's happening in the audience
80% don't care and 50% gladdy to you
all right so so when you know that
you're go around cook growls you know
what they did to me who cares get away
from me buddy come back
[Applause]
[Music]
had a friend of mine that said
something's very important he said hey
it doesn't matter what happens to you
the only thing that is what are you
gonna do about it
that's all that matters okay lights
knock it out what do you want to joke
about how long do you go sit there baby
you know what they did to me come on who
wants to hear that racket use that
energy to get up from then move on and
get on with your life you got to learn
to let the past go so you can grow many
people never act on their dreams because
they allow their past experiences to
determine what their possibilities are
whatever you've done in the past that's
not a reflection of your possibility
that's just a reflection of your
consciousness that's just a reflection
of your development and your growth the
future is unfolding for you right now
the future is unlimited for you right
now no one knows where you can go no one
knows what your path what you're capable
of what's possible for you you don't
even know that I had no idea ladies and
gentlemen no one could have convinced me
that I was able to do this I never
forget I was speaking and Detroit in a
high school friend of mine saw me
afterwards that he was backstage he said
I can't believe it's the same person and
I thought for a moment and I said it's
not the person you know he told you have
liver in law we have the power to change
our personal history changing the
direction of our lives changing our
thoughts changing where we want to go
exploring new horizons so you begin to
look at this decade and affirming that
this is your decade as you said goals
that will make you stretch that will
bring out the best in you as you begin
to remove the negative toxic people from
your life as you decide to take some
chances in life and that's one of the
things that's very important this car
that if you're not willing to risk you
cannot grow and if you cannot grow you
cannot become your best and if you
cannot become your best you cannot be
happy and if you can't be happy and what
else is there
I'll never forget when I reach my first
major goal of buying my mother lat home
I never forget what it was like and
you're going to have this experience
when you reach some major goal when I
drove up to the house and I got out and
I gave mama the key I said mama this is
for you I'll never forget the look on
her face she said she thought oh my god
no one could have convinced me when I
got the job that this would happen
she said thank you she said and you
called me so many damn problem
[Applause]
