says he who loves to sleep and the folding of hands poverty will set upon you like a thief in the night i'm sorry but here's the fact all of you have extraordinary capabilities all of you you have to decide if you are willing to do the things to put you in that category it's no other way when you settle you ruined the movie yeah you heard me your life is a movie and you are the author your life is a movie and you are the director life is a movie and you need to edit some scenes out the pin is in your hand my friend and you're writing your very own personal movie and i believe the good guy wins in the end i believe the good woman wins in the end i believe that you will win in the end as long as you don't settle when you settle you ruin the finale when you settle you ruin the final scene we are all tuned into your movie [Music] we got our popcorn ready [Music] waiting for your grand finale how is your movie going to end as long as there is breath in your body there is a chance sometimes discouragement happens sometimes fatigue happens one thing i know about life when you get tired you got to wait for that second win when that second win kicks in oh you might be tired right now but that second win is kicking in i came here right now today to be your second win and don't you ever settle why because i don't want you to have regrets [Music] you've got to rise above how you feel it's going to be up to you to take authority over your mind and your emotions and a lot of times we get frustrated because things seem to be moving too slowly and when that happens we start to question whether or not what we really want will ever happen for us well it will happen if you refuse to allow fear and impatience to deprive you of what you deserve it will happen if you don't allow moments of frustration to guide your decisions think about all the people you know in life and said man i i wish i didn't quit on school i hate i dropped out i wish i didn't get divorced i hate i gave up i wish i didn't quit the football team because i could have been in the nfl i i wish i i wish i wish i didn't quit i wish i acted better i wish i could get kicked out of school i wish i didn't give up on my kid i wish i wish i wish that is regrets never settled it's till time never settled there's still time what are you working on right now because sometimes in life oh you've got to get one thing god gave you one thing to do that's all you got is that one thing i know life will [ __ ] you down i know life can be tough but you are on a journey when you settle you will always have regret on what could have been what should have been i'ma say these two powerful words one more time and i want you to hear me and get them in your spirit never accept our circumstances your current surroundings never have to dictate who you are you're not what your surroundings are you are what you do and this is the fact of the matter normal regular people just like you and me can do extraordinary things and it's not about the glitz and the glamour and the shine it's not about what we have it's about our heart man it's about people you and me understanding that we are fully capable we have the full potential to achieve and become anything that anybody else is and the only person that's going to stop us and the only person that's going to rob us is when we look in the mirror and we compromise us too often we as young men and young women and i was so guilty of this we only care about the now and we will this and what feels good here and what feels good now and we will compromise who we are because we want the acceptance of the people around us and that's just real man i don't pursue profits i pursue my purpose as you go into the next chapter don't pursue prophets pursue purpose don't pursue the prophets of where can you gain things in life pursue your passions and your purpose because what happens is a lot of times we go on to college or we're going to the next chapter and we're only seeking gains we're only trying to find out what we can get where can we find profits in our lives you need to take time to figure out your why you need to take time to figure out what you're passionate about because if you pursue your passion i promise passion and purpose will always produce gains and profits socially emotionally and financially man you can show me your friends and i can tell you who you are who you surround yourself with is it going to affect you like it love it or leave it if you're surrounding yourself with people who are not about the right who aren't trying to pursue dreams and goals and the same aspirations and the same motivations and dedications and determinations as you you will be affected who you surround yourself with matters it's the compromise that i care about we don't ever have to compromise ourselves i promise you from the front the back to left to the right every single one of you in here man you were born to leave your fingerprints on history you can achieve and become absolutely anything i mean teachers and doctors and actors and athletes and entertainers and musicians and radiology cardiologists and cosmetologists social workers i'm telling you anything that you want and not a teacher a counselor or a principal nobody can stop you i know your circumstances aren't the best i know sometimes our home environment's not the best but this is what i know we're in control of our lives and nobody can take it from you [Music] if you want a really great life it starts first thing in the morning it starts with intention the moment you open your eyes get excited about your day first thing in the morning get excited about your life if you want a better quality life if you never want to feel like this again you must make time for yourself every morning here's four things you should do every day every single day first thing in the morning no excuses get up 30 to 60 minutes earlier if you have to and make sure you get this done as a priority over everything else in your life everything number one gratitude this is more important than anything i guarantee you if you do this alone every day it will change your life it will change how you feel about everything in your life spend 5 to 15 minutes every morning writing down at minimum three things you are extremely grateful for right now in your life it could be three things that if you were to lose you do anything to get back it could be to do with your family your eyesight the opportunities you have simply by being in this country even to be thankful for low moments that have made you who you are today made you stronger your health whatever it is write it down it is important you write it not just think it write it and feel how grateful you are for those things one by one there's no right or wrong way to do this write down whatever comes through you naturally it will be different every day and that is good do this every morning before you start your day and then be consciously on the lookout throughout the day of things you can write down for tomorrow number two meditation if you haven't done this before you will need to be patient it might not be easy right away but it will be very beneficial long term aim for 10 to 20 minutes at least once in the morning if you can the benefits of meditation have been well documented including stress and anxiety release more clarity and mood control number three self development daily every single day every day listen to something that is going to help you take action toward the person you want to become the person you will be in the future whoever that is who do you want to be for your family what example do you want to set who do you want to be for you so you can look in the mirror and be proud because you know this person was made by you your work number four exercise and nutrition you don't need a gym membership to exercise and there are no excuses either you want to be healthy and fit and set an example in the process where you value other things more there's plenty of free exercise videos on youtube you can do at home you can run you can do a lot of things and you can get a really good workout done in 30 minutes a day nutrition is your fuel and you should look at it with the view of this will either give me energy or drain it from me life is much easier if you're feeling healthy and energetic you're only going to get that from making strong choices every day important most people will not do this most people that do do this will stop doing it as soon as a major situation like money for example changes in their life most people will end up in the same place in a few years a few months a few days most people are not happy don't be most people make this a priority in your life just be present and pay conscious attention to how you feel when you really wholeheartedly do these processes with an open mind and heart if you do miss a day one part of it don't beat yourself up also pay attention to how you feel when you don't do it and get back on track you deserve this i remember years ago when the alarm used to go off in the morning the first thing i did was roll over and hit the snooze button in that instant where you have a choice a choice to either hit the snooze button and go back to sleep and your nice warm fluffy cozy bed or open your eyes and get out of bed that's a choice that takes discipline now i didn't have any discipline i always took the easy route the road that was more comfortable the problem is when you make this decision because it's the first decision that you make literally the second you wake up you are letting yourself off the hook you are literally training your mind to take the easy way out throughout the whole day which in turn leads to you taking the easy way out the whole month all year discipline is not something that any of us are born with it's a muscle that we have to train and i don't care what anyone says it all starts at first second how you start your day and that decision that you make in that instant isn't as small as just getting up a bed or not it's a decision that can shake the rest of your [ __ ] life [Music] this ain't some motivational inspirational [ __ ] this is the truth when i was younger i dreamed that one day i'd get a job that paid me 50 grand a year that for a boy where i come from was a dream come true if you told me back then that i'd be running a seven figure company and building a business of my own i would have laughed in your face it wasn't until i started to believe that i and i alone could shape my world that i started achieving anything i wanted to that little decision in the morning if you open your eyes and get out of bed the next decision you face that day you're gonna now be disciplined to not take the easy way out people don't realize it but that bed can basically represent your entire life [Applause] [Music] if you stay in that bed you're literally staying in your comfort zone which means your day will be spent in your comfort zone and your month your year and before you know it you spent your whole life in your comfort zone never pushing yourself to new heights never trying anything new taking risks moving forward it all starts in that first second of your day so don't take it lightly start building discipline it's something i started doing and it helped me massively it ain't easy but it's worth it one of the worst phrases we've ever created was you gotta see it to believe it it's a phrase created by cynical people with small minds that have not got any hope that things can get better can you imagine what the world would be like if everyone believed that this was true we'd have no cars no planes no light in the dark we'd never have computers or mobile phones we'd never climb mountains break records or go to the moon i used to believe this rubbish people have it completely the wrong way round nothing can be achieved conceived until first it's believed you have to believe it to see it if there's something that you want to do with your life that thing deep inside you that whispers day and night it will always always just be an idea until you choose to believe is possible you have to believe it so much that you already think it's happened you have to walk like it's there talk like it's there believe it's there people are gonna think you're mad they're gonna look at you and think you're insane they're gonna tell you like it ain't possible it's risky you shouldn't do it be careful stick to what you know stick to what you do [ __ ] that follow your dreams these people have to see to believe it but you need to believe it to see it i was in a tough position 19 years old kid on the way earning 27 pounds a day i could have chose to focus on all the problems i was gonna face all the pain instead i decided to change my stars i decided to say enough was enough and focus on ways to change them it's easy to say that i'll try that thing tomorrow or i'll do that tomorrow one day i'll get in shape one day i'll tell that person how i feel one day i'll start that business one day i'll leave this job one day i'll leave this abusive relationship we've all had times where we find ourselves constantly telling ourselves that one day we'll do that thing the problem is we look at all these opportunities around us and we say they're risky what you've got to realize is life in itself is risky it ain't important how long you live what's important is how you live when life gets on top of you and you feel like it's all becoming too much it's easy to let things spiral out of control i've been there that place where you feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders things don't go your way that promotion at work you don't get you don't make the team that person you asked out said no your business is struggling the bills are piling up we all go through dark times my advice to you is to focus on finding the light you're nervous you're scared you're worried and you don't know what's going to happen it may seem like things aren't going to get better it may seem like all of the days the weeks the months are all merging into one and it seems like you can't make a difference between one day and the next it may seem like these things are not going to get better like the world will be forever changed like things won't be different it may seem like we're losing so much and part of that may be true but we are also gaining we're gaining perspective we're gaining appreciation we're gaining understanding we're gaining hope we're gaining connection even if it is just through a screen we're gaining trust we're gaining support we're gaining presence with the people in our lives and people that we don't even know we're gaining love for people that we've never met and we're gaining community with people that we have not and maybe will not ever meet through the stress through the anxiety through the worry through the frustration through the anger through the fear we will become stronger we will become better we will become this altered version of ourselves that has a deeper understanding for what's possible that has a deeper appreciation for the people in their lives we will become more connected we will have a deeper appreciation for life than we have ever had before even if things get worse we are stronger than anything that can happen to us we are bigger than any circumstances and any challenges that are put in our way we are bigger than our biggest problem we are more resilient than any virus we can outlast any threat we are more courageous than any enemy that we have ever and will ever face we are better together we are stronger together we are more of what we are actually able to be together and we will outlast we will come out of this better than we started but we will not come out of this better just by doing nothing we must raise the bar we have to raise the game raise your will raise your energy raise your standards raise your commitment to the things that you want to create raise your commitment to your life raise your kindness raise your patience raise your willingness to be a part of the solution raise your courage raise your compassion raise your drive look at what you're doing every single day what habits are you holding on to what things do you keep on doing that you know that you shouldn't what new habits do you want to build that you know will make you a better version of yourself what habits do you want to get rid of what new decisions do you need to make and what decisions do you need to leave behind how were you going to come out of this better than when you started wake up early put time and energy and effort into the things that matter give time to the people that matter put in real effort do more than you think you should do more than what is asked of you go the extra mile push yourself beyond what you thought that you were capable of add more value to every situation in school in your relationships and in your life but even just setting goals is not enough writing down your goals writing down what you want is not enough why because we do not take actions based on the goals that are written down we do not take action based on what is on our vision board we take action based on the way that we feel and the number one way to overcome that the way that we jump over that hurdle is one thing is to take action regardless of how you are feeling the one way to overcome the feelings that hold us back the feelings of being unmotivated the feelings of being lazy the feelings like we're not good enough that we can't do that thing is to take action if you don't feel like studying sit down and study if you don't feel like working out lace up your running shoes and go for a run if you don't feel like eating healthy make the decision to choose the healthier option when we make more decisions based on the place that we want to go we allow ourselves to train our brains to know that we are in charge that we are the ones making the decision that this is our life that we're the ones calling the shots so if you don't feel like doing something just do it just go when you feel like giving up when you feel like everything is against you when you feel like the situation is going to get worse and you're nervous and you're scared and your word you have to remember not only who you are but what species that you are a part of you're a part of the human race we have sent people to space we have created technologies that allow us to talk to people from across the globe we have cured some of the most potent diseases on the face of the planet we have created peace we have come together we have started movements we've supported each other through the toughest times in history we have shown humanity that we can actually fight for something bigger than ourselves that we can act for things that are outside of who we are we have shown the world that we can come together for a common good that we can come together and strive towards achieving a common goal we are built for challenge we are built for uncertainty we are built for tough times we are made for adversity and we are more powerful together than any enemy we will ever face we are bigger than this we will get through this we are stronger than this as long as we play our part you can either be a part of the problem or a part of the solution you either help the situation not only your situation but the situation of the people in your life and the people on this planet or you won't so quiet the fear quiet the worry quiet the anxiety quiet the stress quiet the frustration quiet that voice in your mind that tells you that you can't that you can't get through this that things will get worse that maybe you're just not strong enough quiet that voice quiet the doubt don't let the thoughts that you can't handle this take up any excess space in your mind quiet those voices and raise the volume on hope raise the volume on courage raise the volume on progress that is what we are made for we are built for progress we are made to move forward no matter what happens to us we are designed and will always find a way to move forward we always find a way to define the odds as daunting as they may seem we are built to weather the storms that life throws at us that is what we are made for and we can get through this we will get through this we can win and we will win together you found bankruptcy and you stopped moving you got fired and you stopped did you get divorced and you just stopped moving you got cut and you just stopped well my basketball career was over i didn't stop moving why because i'm a shirt [Music] and don't you ever forget that the rest of your life don't you ever stop moving don't you ever go backwards to be a shark it's about how you move how you operate how you navigate see as long as we connected my friend you can't stop you can't quit i ain't gonna let you not on my watch baby get back in the game it ain't over till you win you might say well that's me man i quit i got lazy when i'm not moving i'm landing the bed sad lonely depressed angry cause my girlfriend broke up with me angry because my first business failed angry because i didn't get into my dream school let me tell you sir it's a long race it's a long race life is a marathon baby if you stop running you won't get to the finish line so as long as you can hear the sound of my voice don't you ever stop moving don't you ever go backwards and sharks never retreat sharks never retreat and those big powerful creatures got close to the camera and all you could see was muscles and scars scars and muscles why because sharks know how to fight can i ask you a question you got some wounds you got some scars but are you still willing to battle are you still willing to fight for success fight for being wealthy fight for getting out of debt fight for your marriage fight for your family fight for whatever you got to fight for the thing i love about a shark they never stop fighting don't let failure stop you don't you ever let rejection stop you don't you ever let people stop you you stop moving forward because they saying this and they said that let me tell you something about what he's saying and she's say hater stops you really when you get successful haters are part of the landscape if you don't have haters your vision is too slow and then you have the great whites oh then you got the great white shark baby they go deep they love hunting in the deep they are always going for the throat and they don't stop until they win see when you go to a swimming pool most people stay in the shallow wind but not great whites baby not great white sharks they go into the deep end they love going deep for you to become a millionaire you got to go deeper some of you guys got to read more some of you guys got to study more some of you got to change your relationship why because your friends are shallow your family is shallow if you want to be a great white baby you got to get some new friends you got to get some new conversations you got to get some new material new information new access to new people that can take you to a place you've never been all great white baby they go deep it's time for you to go deep it's whatever you put me in i'm gonna make it out on top wherever you drop me off i'm gonna make it why because i'm a shirt i don't care how many times that you need to try no one can stop you but you i don't care who you are i don't care what you do if you want to be a sales shark you got to move different you might still be in school you want to be a straight a student you got to move and operate differently you're a young experienced athlete in high school or college trying to make it to the league trying to make it to the top you can it's right in front of you but you got to move different you got to operate different you got to operate better in your social service you got to operate better in school better in class better in the sales meeting better in front of the client why not how do you move right now i mean let's be honest how do you operate right now and here's the truth if you're operating the right way you don't need to brag about yourself because others are going to brag about you keep your own name out your own mouth and let others talk about you are a beast let others talk about how good you are how strong you are how fast you are how smart you are how successful you are that's when you know you're shocked when others are talking about you you want others bragging about you sharks only look up they can't look down the fact of a shark attacks you in the ocean get beneath it because a shark can't look down see when you're looking at haters you know what you're doing you're looking down when you get distracted by haters you know what you're doing you're keeping your eyes off the prize baby haters are part of the last game but haters are beneath you and the real truth about haters they wish they did it themselves the real truth about haters they don't have the courage to go for it themselves sharks only look up they can't look down stay positive my friend if it didn't work this time try again oh it worked the second time try it again no one can stop you but you you got to get to that next level through your movement you got to get to that next level through your activity you gotta get to that next level but how you operate can you ask your question how strong is your movement what time do you wake up in the morning what time do you go to sleep and how much time do you waste throughout the day sharks never stop moving sharks never go backwards sharks only look up trucks never look down and here's the best part about a shark shark takes over with them sharks make other people successful and sharks are made of cartilage that's why they're different than every other fish they're made of carpets which means they're flexible they can change and they pivot when they need to pivot can ask you a question do you need to pivot right now your business idea is not working pivot your marriage is not working change how you operate your career is not where it needs to be you made a courage baby you're flexible pivot every morning you start your day sometimes you tend to think about what you did yesterday you think about what you could have done what you should have done but it didn't turn out the way you wanted it you start getting into an abyss of self-hate now that sounds pretty harsh for some people but there are a lot of people right now that are going through this experience in their lives they don't seem to love themselves anymore they feel hopelessness they feel lost [Music] they feel that no one cares about them that they're the only one in the world that exists i'm here to let you know right now you have to turn it back up again you got to get into a position where you start to realize that if you don't love yourself then no one will love you and you have to stop depending on chasing people to love you how can you receive love if you don't give yourself enough love within yourself how can you understand what it means to love if you don't love yourself within i get it you've had some hard times i understand it it's been a tough road for you but i want you to think for a moment do you really have it that bad are you really going through so much in your life that the other person that you may have met that's just down the road from you that may have crossed your path and maybe they didn't even look your way but did it ever come across your mind that maybe they're going through a lot more than you going through right now in your life but they understand that hey i still got to love myself have you ever looked at a homeless person on the street and wondered why are there in that position would you probably even think to yourself that why are they still living why do they want to be in this position who says that they want to be in that position do you realize they was not always in that position do you realize that a homeless person had a home at one time in their life but they must still love themselves they must still believe that they love themselves enough to not give up their life so while you're sitting around wondering about all of these things that you're dealing with give yourself a chance and start loving yourself give yourself the opportunity to stop hating yourself within and start giving love unconditional love of yourself stop giving in and hating on you are you worried about what people think or you're concerned about being in a certain group you need to feel important but these people don't make you feel important you don't need their permission to feel loved you don't need to be connected to these type of people because they don't even love themselves because they feel they got to belong to something or someone to be someone special since the day you were born you were special since the day you were born there was something already ready for you you just got to go after it and believe that there's something waiting for you but it won't wait too long because you got to have enough love within you to get what it is that you are seeking see we always on a mission the mission of success the mission of believing the mission of loving there is no time for hate hate is not going to build you up hating yourself it's not going to make you strong you're concerning yourself about what people think about you what they think is all they can do is think thinking doesn't necessarily get you anywhere but doing is another and you my friend need to be doing the right thing and loving yourself put your arms around yourself and give yourself a kiss and believe that you matter love you no matter what the world is doing no matter what the craziness that we are facing have enough sense and enough idea within yourself that you are special and you must understand that your love matters [Music] so get in love with you get back to who you are maybe that relationship didn't work out maybe that man broke up with you maybe that woman broke up with you maybe they made you feel less of yourself but you don't need their permission to understand what it means to be in love with yourself so on this day ladies and gentlemen get back to love get back to believing get back to understanding that you are here in this world for a reason and everything that you do from here on out learn how to keep loving but most importantly love yourself keep it moving and from the bottom of my heart conduct your business you can't give up on yourself humble yourself man his blessings is his blessings and your blessings is your blessings go get what's yours go get what's yours every day you should wake up with a chip on your shoulder and this ain't really got nothing to do with you being better than nobody this ain't got nothing to do with you being better than nobody this about you being and doing better for your family your friends and most importantly [Music] this is about you going out there into the world impacting other people by sharing the good news if you know what i mean man look look young one this one for you you ain't gonna be happy every day of your life [Applause] and that's simply because your happiness is all based off your circumstances but young one if you can't be happy every day that's okay that's okay because although you may not be happy today you can still be full of joy every single day because like i say happiness stands on your circumstances but that joy it stands on you being consciously aware that you walking in the lord's presence shaun you cover or you want to put on this earth to live in misery man everybody on earth walking around with a gift in their hand man i wish i would have unwrapped my gift long time ago [Music] i wish i would unwrap my gift long time ago man but i was sitting there running in them streets young one i was sitting there running in them streets and the main reason i do this the main reason i try to reach out and impact the world because i want to just get out to them young ones man i just want you to know you ain't got to live that no more because i did it you ain't got to live that no more because i did it if you spend all your time focusing on all the problems in the world and all the problems in your life you ain't gonna be happy it's easy in a world that we live in today to be consumed by all the media-filled negativity in the world [Music] you can't turn on the tv without seeing some negative story all the bad everyone has problems the difference between the people who are happy and the people that ain't is that the people that are happy choose to focus on the solutions to the problems they face rather than the problems themselves you always have a choice amazing things happen when you believe you have something your brain actively goes out to make it happen it starts to notice little subtle opportunities that you would have otherwise deleted because it knows it's got a job to do to get you what you want it's all about perspective constantly tell yourself how much worse things could be and you can actually be thankful for the way you've got things at the moment your world and your life can truly be anything you make it but you gotta make it don't take it lightly start building discipline into your life by not taking the easy way out most of us are told growing up that we can be anything we want to be and most of us hear it but we don't listen we don't believe it i'm here to tell you today that it ain't a load of rubbish it's true you can be who you want to be you can do what you want to do see what you want to see it's all in your power and no one else is but you got to believe it if you believe that you can achieve it baby whatever it is i used to believe to my core that i was going to run my own company and make more money than i currently did and have a family and be happy even when i was dead broke skinned as a being i would never worry because i believed with everything in me that i could change it you gotta stare all that in the face and say you can't beat me i'm too strong what most people do is they roll over but you can't it ain't gonna be easy most of the time you're gonna feel like there's no way out that you can't do it but listen to me when i say there is always hope you have to take control and attack it head-on because as soon as you do this just once just like a muscle lifting weights you become stronger you become comfortable being uncomfortable and before you know it you become a machine and nothing nothing on the outside can affect you because your mind is trying to beat it down never run always fight take control of your life and you'll change it forever go get in shape go tell that person how you feel go start that business go leave that job go leave that abusive relationship deep down you know you should do it but you've got to risk it all not doing it definitely guarantees one thing that you'll get to the end of your life and regret that you didn't even try you can either be a victim of your life or the master of it but the choice is always yours go out and get it don't take no for an answer if you get knocked down get back up again you can never fail if you never give in stop being a victim stop letting life push you around and start fighting back because the minute you tell yourself that you control this is the minute you can start to change it it all starts the moment you take responsibility and say to yourself i can make out of this life what i want and no one and nothing is going to shape my destiny but me i'm here to tell you today that you can have anything you want be anyone you want believe that you can do it and work hard to get it and it's yours never wait and see to believe it believe it and you'll see it i sat in my apartment man i even thought about was life worth living man and i prevailed man [Music] so don't tell me you can't do it cause i did it we both built for this go attack with sure go get what's yours his blessings is his blessings and your blessings is your blessings go get what's yours it's yours go get it [Music] and when you get it you better let nobody take it from you you better let nobody take it from you get it and protect what's yours young one and when i say protect what's yours protect your family protect your gift protect your values protect your morals protect your spirituality because most importantly this is all about you going out into the world impacting the youth whether it's youth your young adults the young woman the young kings and queens this about you getting out there and sharing the good news i had to take the high school assessment test four times [Music] i'm talking i had to take it four times and i failed every single time and when i say i mean i failed every single time my grades got lower and lower and lower and lower [Music] you must be don't understand how it felt you must be don't understand how it felt to be that snotty nose boy out on projects watching them grades get lower and lower [Music] but i knew god had bigger plans for me i knew god had bigger plans for me i knew i wasn't put on earth to live in misery you understand me [Music] i was put on earth to prosper [Music] i was put on earth to prevail and that's all i'm here to do [Music] but as the grades got lower and lower and lower there were some college papers sitting on the table and we all know how happy that snotty knows boy projects get when them college papers sit on the table i felt like that was my way out mama if you listening to this i love you i feel like that was my way out [Music] i ain't gonna let these grades get me down i'm gonna go attack what's mine i'm gonna go get what's mine so i remember one day i got up i say i got college papers on the table i got in that library i went to studying i'm talking day and night i'm talking restless nights i went to go get my ged it ain't nothing different me and you we built the same don't tell me you can't do it cause i did it [Music] and boy i remember when those test grades came back you talking about one of the best feelings i ever felt in my life you talking about one of the biggest accomplishments you ever felt in your life i told you god did not put you on this earth god did not put you on this earth to live in misery [Music] and don't tell me you can't do it because i did it i live with these three principles and i promise you man they will change everything about who you are hard work works make good choices and value people i decided 10 years ago literally when this all happened and i went to prison i wanted to be i was like you know what i want to make this promise i want to keep it to this family i come from a lot of brokenness i don't know where to start but what i do know is the importance of the choices that i make and so literally i wrote the word change the world and i slapped it on my little prison cell window and every single day i woke up and i realized make good choices great things happen aim small miss small i promise you if some of you will just begin to take ownership of your life and some of you probably are already striving and doing phenomenal and making good choices i want to say keep going don't give up keep pursuing it because i promise you every single one of you were meant to leave your fingerprints on history but i'm here to tell any of you in here if you're battling if you're struggling you've got to know when to cut anchor and go on about your life because you can't be letting people live rent free up here you can't be letting people hold you back and who you surround yourself with matters change isn't heaven by accident change takes intentional choices to be different and that's just truthful today i'm going to give my attitude all that i got i'm going to give my working on my character all that i got i want to try to be responsible with all that i got i want to be the best me with everything that i got with all that i got if we can every day look in the mirror and say i don't need to be perfect but i want to progress today every day i'm going to get a little bit better i promise you accountability and transparency will change your life as much as you want to sometimes isolate and be by yourself and think that you can do this on your own you can't you're not an island and you can't do this on your own and it's yes we got to have our good friends we need to have those people that can encourage us but it's not just on a horizontal level there has to be a vertical level those coaches those mentors those people that have been through some things in life you need them in your life you need counselors and people in your life that can see you and see your blind spots because we normally in life we will not see our blind spots make good choices great things happen you see every choice that i can make listen i i can't control what you think about me i can't control your opinion of me i can't control what you say about me but i control how i react respond to what i do with my life i'm in control of my life i don't let external factors control me i'm in control of my life because sometimes life can be tough life can be challenging and sometimes the obstacles in front of you seem like they're too big and it's easier just to lay down but you know what i remember i remember when my dad used to look at me and the kids said listen nathan life is never going to give you anything but if you make it and if you build it nobody can take it from you because hard work and tenacity and refusing to quit and chasing your dream you'll get there i promise you maybe you don't hit the starters who went on the moon you don't give up and you go after and you stop caring about the opinions of people around you stop blaming everybody from your hearts take ownership of your life take off your mass don't fear the bear make good choices be a best friend encourage somebody be your voice of hope and inspiration this is your moment always remember this your past never has to be bigger than your future maybe we've made some mistakes maybe you know we did some things that we're not proud of but the great thing is that people can change [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] you

Best line "never settle." Absolutely right.
