DON'T QUIT - Best Motivational Speech by Tom Brady

no one's good at everything I mean that's just not the way life Works what you know is very limited and what you don't know is Limitless the man will let us to six Super Bowls those who stay will be Champions War number 12 the greatest of all time right here in Tom Brady if I want to be the best I got to beat the best man if I want to be good I got to I got to wake up in the morning I got to do the extra work and I got to show up when other guys aren't and I've got to learn I've got to continue to be open to learning but I had to take it to a new level that the other guys wouldn't nothing was given to me so I'm going to go out there and compete as hard as I can and I'm going to treat practice like a game and I'm going to gain the respect of my teammates every day through my work ethic I'm going to work hard in the weight room I'm going to work hard in the film room I'm going to work hard to be a good student whatever they ask me to do that's what I'm going to do to the best of my ability I never once in my life ever said I wanted to be the best of all time I'm just a story like everybody else I wanted to be the best I could be period And I said be proud of the man in the glass be proud of that man that wakes up every day and does the best you do with his priorities so we're all talented at certain things but we can really continue to improve our weaknesses if we're humble enough to identify them and we can build on our strengths focus on what you can control focus on what you're getting not what anyone else is getting whenever you get an opportunity you take advantage of you treat it like it's the Super Bowl you treat it like it's game day go out there and treat practice like no one else does and you have an opportunity every day to surround yourself with people to help you grow you know I always said we play for the name on the front of our Jersey was a Patriots or the fcks or and I play for the name on the back of the Jersey which was my family and the people that encouraged [Music] me I was so blessed to have this discipline over a really long period of time it was a lot of tough [Music] competition but I was never I would say like a y you know I wasn't like the kid where you see Tiger Wood swinging on the Johnny Carson show at 2 or three years old and you know his swing looks as good as it did at 3 years old as it did you know as he as he grew older or you know certain players that that had this unbelievable uh Prodigy aspect to themselves I I I saw myself as someone who probably had some other traits that maybe were hard to identify but that were really sustainable over time which was I would say work ethic and and discipline [Music] there was this discipline that I had that even as 13 14 15 years old where all these other boys were I went to an all boy School in the Bay Area and I remember showing up my first day as freshman year I a have much you know hair under my arms or anything like that I was like and these other kids came in shaving I'm like what the hell is this I didn't know how to put the pads on in my pants when I tried out for freshman football I mean I had never played until that point except in the streets so these kids came out there they had you know helmets and shoulder pads that they had worn for 4 years I went on the field and I was like I'm going to get killed out here you know and my freshman year I didn't even play I was the backup quarterback on a team that went 0 and8 I couldn't get on the field and we never won a game anyway I mean it's one thing to be the starting quarterback and to lose if they don't even think you're good enough to be a starting quarterback on a team that's 0 a you must really suck [Music] so naturally I was like oh cool I'll continue to you know work on my skill a lot of it was even going into my second year in high school there were workouts in the morning at 6:00 a.m. before school and I was like okay I can I can get up at 6:00 a.m. and I can go do these rope drills where you'd run through the Rope you see a lot of people do that out there were these Hills that we would run up and there was probably less than 10 people there but I was probably one of the three that were there almost every single day to try to continue to push myself to grow in these maybe physical areas that I was really behind a lot of other people that and I went in there competed really hard my third year and I lost the starting job to Brian greasy so I go into my fourth year and I was like now's my time I worked hard to compete my first three years going into my fourth year I got a great opportunity to play and they recruited a kid named Drew Hensen and I was like the competition's Relentless at first I was looking at the guys ahead of me now I got to be looking down at the guys behind me too and going into my fourth year my teammates named me team captain and I won the starting job we had a good year we finished 10 and three you know beat everyone out and I showed up and Coach car says well you're going to compete with Drew Henson to be the starter going into your fifth year and I was like you got to be kidding me you want me to compete that's what we're going to do I competed really hard again in my fifth year took it to a new level thought about my conditioning my strength thought about how I was doing my making my decisions off the field I was starting to play really good and I thought you know I'm going to I'm going to have a chance coach Carr called me in he said well Tom this is what we're going to do you're going to start Drew you're going to play the second quarter and I'm going to decide at halftime who plays the rest of the year coach car said the platoon's off Tom's playing the rest of the year we didn't lose a game the rest of the season it was a tough battle for me go it was a tough go it was tough in high school it was really tough in college so of course now I'm going to the NFL draft and I'm like all these Pro coaches must have seen how good I was man I'm going to be a second round pick round one 2 and here we go sixth round pick 199 and I was like all right I'm going to make all those other teams pay like I said I wasn't The Prodigy I learned about work ethic I learned about resilience I learned about gaining the trust and the respect of my teammates and coaches to name me Captain I learned about how to dig deep within myself a long way from home without a ton of support I was so motivated to be the best I could be that it wasn't I wasn't motivated to be the starter I wasn't motivated to win the Super Bowl I just was motivated to give my best do the best with the opportunity I got and to never let my teammates down all those experiences that we think are the hardest things in our life end up being the best experience in our life because if you approach it with humility and you look inward they become the best opportunities for growth and [Music] learning but most people could say man I want to exercise for one day well I want to be more hydrated for one day well can you do it for a week well that's more discipline right can you do it for a month that's more discipline can you do it for a year that's even more discipline how disciplined are you to maintain that routine over a period of time and I think that will determine your level of success Fame didn't motivate me I didn't give a about any of it I always took less money cuz I wanted a good team around me I didn't care about going to all these different places and doing those things I just wanted to to be my best I wanted to go out there and the team believed in me I didn't want to let him down if I want to be the best I got to beat the best [Music] [Music]
