I don't care how disappointing it might have been as you've been working toward that dream. That that dream that you're holding in your mind. That it's possible.

1:02That some of you already know that it's hard. It's not easy. It's hard changing your life. That in the process of working on your dreams, you are going to incur a lot of disappointment, a lot of failure, a lot of pain, and moments when you're going to doubt yourself. I said, God, why, why is this happening to me? I'm just trying to take care of my children and my mother. I'm not trying to steal a rock from anybody. Why does this have to happen to me? For those of you that have experienced some hardships, don't give up on your dream. There are rough times that are going to come, but they have not come to stay. They have come to pass. The greatness is not this wonderful, esoteric elusive, God-like feature that only the special

2:05among us will ever taste. It's something that truly exists in all of us. It's very important for you to believe that you are the one. Most people, they raise a family, they earn a living, and then they die. They stop growing, they stop working on themselves, they stop stretching, they stop pushing themselves, then a lot of people like to complain, but they don't want to do anything about their situation. Most people don't work on their dreams. Why? One is because of fear, the fear of failure, what if things don't work out, and the fear of success, what if they do it? I can't handle it. These are not risk takers. You spend so much time with other people, you spend so much time trying to get people to like you, you know other people more than you know yourself, you study them, you know about them, you want to hang out like them, you want to be just like them, and you know what? You've invested so much

3:06time in them, you don't know who you are. I challenge you to spend time by yourself. It's necessary that you get the losers out of your life if you want to live your dream. But people who are running toward their dreams life has a special kind of meaning. When you become the right person, what you do is you start separating yourself from other people. You begin to have a certain uniqueness as long as you follow another people, as long as you be in a copycat, you will never ever be the best copycat in the world, but you will be the best you could be. I'm telling you to define your value. That everybody won't see it, that everybody won't join you, that everybody won't have the vision. It's necessary to know that, that you are an uncommon breed. It's necessary that you align yourself with people and attract people into your business who are hungry, people who are unstoppable,

4:07and unreasonable, people who are refusing to leave life just as it is and who want more. The people that are living that dream of parting winners to touch themselves too. The people that are living their dreams of a people that know that it's if it's going to happen, it's up to them. If you want to be more successful, if you want to have induced up your inevitable number two, I'm asking you to invest in you, to invest in you. Someone's opinion of you does not have to become your reality, that you don't have to go through life being a victim. And even though you face disappointments, you have to know within yourself that I can do this even if no one else sees it for me, I must see it for myself. This is what I believe and I'm willing to die for it, period. No matter how bad it is, or how bad it gets, I'm going to make it.

5:09I want to represent an idea. I want to represent possibilities. And some of you right now, you want to be, you know what I'm saying? You want to go to the next level. I want to counsel. You know, I want to be an engineer. I want to be a doctor. Listen to me. You can't get to that level. You can't get to the level economically where you want to be. Until you start investing in your mind, you're not reading books. I'm challenging y'all to go to conferences. I'm there to invest time. I'm there to be alone. I'm there to spend an hour getting to know yourself. When you become who you are, when you become the person that you are created to be, designed to be, who you are designed to be, when you become an individual, what you do is you take yourself and you start separating yourself from other people. I tell you to get to a place where people don't like it but don't even bother you no more. Why? Because you're not concerned with trying to make them happy because you're trying to more. You're trying to get to the next level. I need you to invest in your mind. Invest in your mind. If you still talk about your training, if you still talk about your goal, what you have not done anything, just take the first step. That you can make your parent proud, you can make your school proud.

6:12You can touch millions of people's lives and the world will never be the same again because you came this way. Don't let nobody steal your dreams. After we face a rejection and a no, a we have a meeting and no one shows up. For somebody say you can count on me and they don't count through. What if we have that kind of attitude because we possess? Nobody believes in you. You've lost again and again and again. The lights are cut off but you still looking at your dream. Reviewing it every day and saying yourself it's not over until I win. You can live your dream. I want to share something that really caught my attention as a parent. I've learned that myopia near-sightedness is becoming much more common in kids and it's not

7:14something you want to ignore. If it goes unchecked, it can have an impact that goes way beyond schoolwork. What really matters is starting with an eye exam and eye doctor can tell you what's going on with your child's vision and walk you through options that are designed specifically for kids like Esselaer Stelest lenses. I like that Stelest lenses are made for children and fit right into everyday life. They look like regular glasses but they're part of a more thoughtful approach to managing myopia.
