Your Time Is Now - Jim Rohn Powerful Motivational Speech

much thank you wow save some for the end how many of you have never seen me before this is your first time wow everybody so I'm not so famous after all anyway nice to have all of you here it's a long journey here for me from uh the Farms of Southern Idaho where I grew up to uh you know next door to Disneyland with all the spotlights and cameras and all of you here it's just a bit much it's unbelievable um I did my first for pay seminar in 1963 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills California called adventures and achievement so this now makes my year number 41 so a lot of you and my uh big purpose now is to keep my journey going I just got back from uh Argentina uh last week and next week I go to Venezuela toward the end of the month back to Italy and Europe a little later in the year Asia South Africa and Australia and who who knows where else so from my travels around the world I just really Dro by to say hello and uh share some ideas but I'm thankful for the opportunity to share these ideas one more time uh the ideas I want to share with you so dramatically changed my life I'm always excited about the opportunity to share them you know one more time uh I quit school at age 19 unfortunately my reasoning was I'm smart enough to get a job how how much smarter do you need to be and with that bit of shallow thinking I quit school at age 19 little while later you know I went to work a little while later got married started this little family and I'm out there working hard doing the best I could but Falling a little bit behind every year finally the creditors once in a while are starting to call saying you told us the check was in the mail and I'm embarrassed by that and then I sure some of you if you've listened to my cassette tapes or the CDs or heard some of my material the Girl Scout story finally occurred age 25 I hear this knock on the door I go to the door and there's this girl scout about this tall selling cookies for the Girl Scouts me she gave me one of the finest sales presentations I've ever heard special deal several flavors Girl Scouts best organization in the world only $2 and with a big smile she very politely asked me to buy no problem I wanted to buy big problem I didn't have $2 in my pocket I'm a grown man I live in America I'm married with a family I've been to college one year and um I've been working for 6 years from age 19 to 25 and I didn't have the $2 in my pocket and I didn't want to tell her that that seemed too embarrassing so I did what I thought was next best I lied to her and I said look we've already bought lots of girls got cookies we've still got plenty in the house we haven't eaten she said oh that's wonderful thank you very much and she leaves when she leaves I say to myself I don't want to live like this anymore I mean how low can you get lying to a Girl Scout right I mean that's that's the ultimate so I started my search that day and sure enough very shortly I met this extraordinary Man by the name of Mr ear cha and my life was never the same after that uh Chris mentioned ideas and that's where this whole flow of unique ideas started for me age 25 I had the opportunity to go to work for this extraordinary man I worked worked for him for 5 years then unfortunately he died age 49 but the things he taught me during that 5 years transformed my economic life especially but my personal life my leadership chances all of that came from that unique experience so maybe it's true when the student is ready when someone says I've had it you know this is it I don't want to live like this anymore and then you begin a new search so so make this note now for the first of the notes we're going to share in my portion for today if you start the search the odds are excellent you will find good ideas if you search you will find finding is reserved for those that search ideas are not reserved for those that hope they're not reserved for those that wish they're not reserved for those who complain you know good ideas are reserved for those that search so the first thing I want to do is congratulate all of you for being here continuing your search spending the money and spending the time to come and spend a few days and see if you can't through the accumulation of hours and speakers that we have during this weekend uh go home with a a harvest of good ideas for your business for your life for your marriage for your friendships for your economic future and you know for all of the rest we've all heard the expression nothing so powerful as an idea whose Time Has Come how very true the walls came tumbling down about 15 16 years ago in Germany and the time had come for capitalism to finally reach those uh unfortunate countries that have been dominated by communism for so long and that idea now is beginning to flourish I've been teaching capitalism now for the last 10 years in Russia I've made five trips to all the major cities it's incredible when an idea finally comes and the time is right uh what can happen so ideas when an idea and its time is ready it can be incredible but now here's the next part for your notes nothing so powerful as an idea that comes at the right time and hopefully today for you and the rest of this series of uh good trainings this would be a good time for you maybe you've got three numbers of the lock that needs four numbers and you've already got three already dialed in from you know the sermons you've heard and the lyrics of the songs you've listened to and personal conversations and meetings and trainings and seminars and books you've read all of that right you got the three numbers and just maybe just maybe this weekend could well be be that fourth number for you that you've been looking for and the lock will open and the door will open and there could be some real new accelerated opportunity for you over the next few years of your life so I hope that's true from what I have to say and and from Dennis and Brian and other speakers that are going to share with you um this could be a very important weekend for you I hope it's one of those lifechanging weekends where you look back say wow I was never the same and the chances are excellent if you keep going keep going to as many things as you can get to in terms of uh information ideas seminars lectures because if you go continuously and systematically some of them will be routine some of them may be ordinary and then just once in a while some may be extraordinary and you're never the same again and you'll look back on that experience and say that was one of the days that turned my life around so I hope this weekend from what I have to share and the rest of the speakers this is one of those extraordinary weekends for you here's another note to make no one person has all the answers no one person has all the ideas we need to gather ideas from a variety of voices and from a variety of experience from social to personal to political to the management of time the conservation of resources um you know business entrepreneur career all of that uh being a good parent a good mother being a good father uh being a good friend a business colleague you got to have a whole variety of ideas so this weekend we're going to have a chance for that you know multiple speakers and a chance for multiple ideas is to come your way next is a little phrase that I'd like to have you memorize and if you memorize it I'm sure it'll follow you for the rest of your life and if you're ready say I'm ready ready here is the phrase you can write it down as we memorize it here it is from testimonials and personal experience repeat that for me from testimonials and personal experience we have enough information to conclude I'll let you write it down we have enough information to conclude so repeat for me we have enough information to conclude if you were composing this I don't know what you would write after this we have enough information to conclude that it's possible jot that down that it's possible so repeat for me that it's possible and the rest to design and live an extraordinary life make that note to design and live an extraordinary life so repeat that for me to design and live an extraordinary life now let's repeat it from the beginning here we go from testimonials and personal experience we have enough information to conclude that it's possible to design and live live an extraordinary life I hope you will give that little phrase some consideration and here's what's next I hope you bu the idea that from testimonials and personal experience we have enough information to conclude that it's possible to design and live an extraordinary life and what I want this weekend to be for you is the Gathering of more ways and means to design and live for you an extraordinary life I don't know how far you want to go here's the first essence of life and that is self-preservation to produce enough to take care of yourself the instructions given right to the to the couple that left the Garden of Eden one was to multiply it's a lonely place with only two people but here were the next instructions to be fruitful how fruitful how productive should one be and here's number one to produce enough to survive to produce enough to take care of yourself and self-care is important if you're flying on an airplane the flight attendant says if for some reason we run out of oxygen these oxygen mass will fall from the ceiling and if you have children with you quickly take care of them then take care of yourself no no no they say what put your mask on first put your mask on first first see to your survival first then you'll be more capable of taking care of the survival of your children isn't that interesting my father had an interesting saying he said son right after me you come first wow that's [Applause] okay I was in business with Bob Cummings the old movie star we were in the health and nutrition business together back in the 60s 61 2 3 Bob had an interesting saying here's what he said I'll take care of me for you will you please take care of you for me so the first challenge in life is to take care of yourself it is to survive so to produce enough to survive to take care of yourself but now what's next well all alone it's a lonely life so let's say the man now chooses a partner now he must figure out how to produce enough for himself and his spouse his wife his partner someone says well why do that why not just take care of yourself and the answer is it's a very small life it's a very limited life we wouldn't call it flourishing we wouldn't call it abundant just taking care of yourself that is the first rule but that's only the beginning so the man gets married now he must produce enough for himself and for his wife and here's the key phrase to make a note of to live the higher life a life of togetherness the Storyteller says it seems even God didn't want to be alone he created all of these angels right so to join with someone now you must produce enough for yourself for your partner now is that it the answer is no how about children let us have children that's a unique experience so now if the man has a wife and now he has children here's the challenge to produce enough for himself and his family now someone says well why take on all of that why not just take care of yourself you could yes but you couldn't live this more extraordinary life without taking on the responsibility of having a partner having some children and live that kind of extraordinary life so I think everybody would agree now is that the end of it no here's the next challenge to produce more than you need for yourself and for your family someone says well now why start being ridiculous here yes produce enough for yourself well yes if you want to get married produce enough for yourself and for your spouse now with children produce enough for your family but why do more than that and jot down the answer to live a more extraordinary life so now the man produces more than he needs for himself and for his children so that he can be a person of benevolence so that he can give and so that he can share that's the more abundant that's the more extraordinary life to produce more than you need for yourself and for your children is that it let's take it a couple of more steps how about producing much more than you need for yourself and for you your family someone says well now you're off the scale I mean why work that hard why go that far why produce that much some would say just take care of yourself some would say just you know get a partner and that's it then children and that's it and be a bit benevolent and that's it but why not go this next step and produce much more than you need for yourself and for your children and when someone says why do that all of us know the answer right why not if you've got the talent and the skill and the opportunity why not put all of that together and see if you couldn't produce much more than you need for yourself and for your family let's say you earned uh $10 million this year and you and your family only need three million which would probably cover most families right some families are more expensive than others as I discovered um but let's say 3 milli ion Would You Know cover a big high percentage so now if you and your family only needed 3 million for the year now you have 7 million to give and someone says what why do that and the obvious answer is what why not if you've got the talent and the skill and the time and the opportunity and the occasion and all this stuff comes together why not let's go one more how about producing far more than you need for yourself and for your family and live the far more life we've heard the story of Andrew Carnegie right Andrew Carnegie said this he built the big steel industry back in the 20s here in America here was Andrew Carnegie's goal I'm going to spend the first half of my life earning money I'm going to spend the last half of my life giving it all away isn't that extraordinary wouldn't you call that an extraordinary life and the answer is yes he got so excited by that goal that the first half of his life he earned $400 million which back then was a lot of money I mean now right it doesn't seem to be that much but you know maybe back then it would total $40 billion like Bill Gates so $40 billion he earned the first half of his life guess what he did with the last half of his life he gave it all away and the big question is why do that and the answer is why not if you've got the opportunity to live design and live an extraordinary life you know why not do that so here's what I want this weekend to be for you plenty of ideas to take home chew on digest you know throw some away refine some you know accept some do some whatever that's what this weekend is really for to send you home with a whole new library of thoughts to ponder ideas to try disciplines to work out uh some skills to learn and if we do that and do it well this weekend you will say hey it was certainly worth the time and the money uh to go to that weekend jimr seminar Jim rone and friends now make these notes what I hope you find here this weekend ideas Plus in Inspiration that's the mixture that really turns things on you know sends a entrepreneur program into high gear ideas plus inspiration we need ideas for the goals and plans and we need inspiration for the emotional Vitality to put it to work to make it grow make it multiply and here's what else I hope you'll find here guidelines for translating response into results you've responded to the call come search look listen take notes get it to take home with you and I'm sure you're going to respond well to the you know seasoned teaching and training that is going to be delivered here this weekend but here's the key guidelines for translating response into results because results is the name of the game there's no purpose in learning just for learning's sake wisdom and Faith as powerful as those components are serve no useful purpose unless they are deposited so make a note of the word deposited wisdom and Faith deposited into activity wisdom and Faith put to work now produces a hotel produces a a Suk vaccine uh produces a city produces an institution of learning produces a career produces a relationship right ideas and faith believing that it's possible that ideas can work miracles now put to work so the big job here is getting it all and so now make the next note next is going home and translating it into high activity good health activity a better relationship activity an entrepreneur program activity a new burst of speed in your sales career all of that that's what I'm really interested in because here's what's important to me is for my name once in a while to appear in someone's testimonial make that note it's one of life's greatest experiences is when your name appears in somebody's testimonial somebody says here's the person who found me here's the person who got me started now here's the person who wouldn't let me quit gave me more reason reasons for staying than for leaving here's the person who believed in me until I could believe in myself and then they mention your name see you can't buy that with money and you don't have to give lectures and seminars to do it you don't have to have an audience like this for the weekend in order to deliver value to someone's life what if you had breakfast with a friend at Denny's four years ago and and uh you recommended this book that really meant a lot to you and you said to your friend you've got to read this book I think it'll make a major contribution to your life and your friend accepted the idea went and got the book now four years later he's giving his testimonial his business has flourished his marriage is safe things are going extremely well and someone says where did this all begin for you and he will say four years ago at Denny's coffee shop I sat with my friend and he insisted that I read this book I went and got it and that book led to the next book that led to the next class that led to developing skills I never had before and that led to some more seminars and lectures and now look at my business look at my life it's flourishing but it all began four years ago Denny's coffee shop shop when someone said you've got to read this book see that's a personto person seminar and those are just as valuable as person to a thousand person to 10,000 right it doesn't matter the number if you have a chance to deliver you know quote a poem recommend a book here's a phrase like I gave you this one to memorize I think you'll remember this one maybe for a long long time just something that's really extra meaningful to someone whether it's at breakfast or wherever it is whether it's for a child or whether it's for an adult a friend a business associate if you'll keep up that process I promise you your name will continually appear in people's testimonials and now I've had this happy experience now for the last 40 45 years and so that's one of the reasons why I came here this weekend right I don't need the money you know I've long ago made my fortune I take the money but I don't I don't need the money but here's what I do need continuing testimonials that say Mr ran on a summer day in Anaheim California at the Marriott I was there that weekend and something clicked and the lights went on and I got the gift of some good ideas here's what's happened to me then they mentioned my name see that's what I want continuing testimonials that come back to me saying thanks for sharing ideas okay to get the most out of this weekend jot these notes down now number one be thankful for what you already have Thanksgiving sets up you know the situation where ideas can flow here's what locks up the doors of opportunity for good ideas and that's cynicism all you have to be is a practice cynic cynical about the government and cynical about politics and cynical about the future and cynical about uh the economy cynicism locks all the doors but if you'll be thankful for what you have however modest or however much it is I think that's the beginning of receiving a flow of new ideas here's the next one be eager to learn there's already some extraordinary success stories in this room if we knew how successful we would give you the podium I would be happy to take notes no matter M how successful you are be willing to learn some more we in the millionaires Club invite a billionaire once in a while come talk to us and he says well you guys are doing okay but you know how about stepping up right how about multiplying by two by three by five by 10 come on you've just gotten started so no matter how well you're doing we could all use another idea idea a couple of other things that L together with what you already know could give you a whole new burst of productivity and extraordinary lifestyle then to get the most out of this session this weekend you have to do what we call some tough listening and sometimes it's easy to gather it's difficult to gather up everyone's you know attention because our lives really seem to be going on outside this room you know a part of our life is going on here while we're here but you know some of us our kids are out there and our business is out there and our career is out there and our job is out there and everything is out there so sometimes it's difficult to bring yourself within the you know framework you know inside these four walls and just really concentrate and do your best to get it all because I know how meaningful ideas can be the name Earl CH you know still rings in my mind I'm 25 years old after the Girl Scout story experience I'm introduced to a man who I had had a chance to go to work for and over the next 5 years the ideas he shared with me not only made me Rich but gave me the foundation for a longterm career of sharing ideas building business making profits uh hopefully wise Investments made an extraordinary contribution to my life this unique man he only went to the ninth grade in school so the things he shared with me over that 5year period were very simple very ABC but that's where I got all of those simple phrases let me just review some of them for you very quickly for things to change for you you have to change I kept hoping the government would change and taxes would change and prices would come down and things would get better and then he said for things to change for you Mr ran you have to change wow what a new revelation next he said don't wish it was easier wish you were better all of this started me on this unique journey of what I now call personal development here's another one this is don't wish for Less Problems wish for more skills it's not less problems that makes you successful it's more skills that makes you successful I tried to convince him by showing him my paycheck that I wasn't doing well and I blamed it on the company and I said this is all the company pays he said no that's all the company pays you I thought well that's a new way to look at it he says doesn't the company pay some people three four five times this amount and I said well yes he says well then this is not all the company pays this is all you get until you re-qualify accelerate your qualification for the bigger numbers see that was all great Revelation to me I tried to convince him that things cost too much he said no you can't afford them all of these were new ways of looking at things unbelievable and so I started listening to all this stuff now some of the things that really accelerated my learning curve so that I could do better quickly was learning the success equations here's three of them the first one comes from the Bible the question was asked you know 2,000 years ago in the Bible according to the Storyteller what is the Key to Greatness what's the key to self-esteem what is the key to getting honors and trophies to put on the mantle above the fireplace what is the key to receiving great respect what is the key to wealth and abundance what is the key to all of that an extraordinary life and here's the answer that was given capsule form according to the Storyteller the answer was find a way to serve many people find a way to serve find the ways and means start rendering service the more you serve the greater your fortune service to many leads to Greatness key next John Kennedy speaking of politics today we're surrounded by political speeches here was one of the best John Kennedy on his inaugural to be president of the United States all those years ago here's what he said don't ask wow don't we wish that was the current political philosophy where is John Kennedy where is he John said don't ask what the country can do for you ignore these promises of what everyone's saying what the country can do for you he said don't ask what the country can do for you but ask what what could I do for my country see that's the whole turnaround in philosophical Thinking by asking you receive so little by serving you receive so much so rather than settle for the pennies of what someone could do for you why not turn it around and find some way to serve it's a pretty simple process here's what I taught the Russians Johnny mows Mrs Brown's lawn she pays $3 every time he mows her lawn he collects $3 thinking in terms of what could I do for my country surely Miss Mrs Brown is one of the members of the country so he mows her lawn and collects $3 and starts what we call an income and a career now what's next and here's what the Russians were excited about what if Johnny gets Pete to mow Mrs Brown's lawn she still pays the $3 but now Johnny gives Pete $2 for mowing the lawn and keeps $1 because he's the one that got the work now we have the beginning of an entrepreneur now we have the beginning of Fortune here's a good note to make I started part-time on a little adventure learning skills and disciplines and here's what I began to say with my little part-time job I said I'm working full-time on my job and I'm working part-time on my fortune and the reason is because I found the mechanics I found the philosophy I started working it serving other people one way to serve is to mow Mrs Brown's lawn and get the $3 the other way to serve is to get someone else to do it and you collect that extra money finding ways to serve that's the key to wealth and greatness then here's the next one and everybody knows this one I heard Zig say it over 40 years ago Zig Ziggler and when he said it I wrote it down and if you haven't ever written it down write it down if you help enough people get what they want you can have everything you want if you help enough people get what they want you can have everything you want when I heard zigg say that I wrote it down and maybe you want to do this underline the word everything that's what was intriguing to me about this sentence so these are the success equations this is the wealth formula from the Bible from John Kennedy from Zig Ziggler now make these notes in the Journey of personal development one of the first things to learn is the lesson of the seasons let me cover as much as this as I can before we take our first break for the day the lesson of the seasons for your notes life in business is like the changing seasons one of the best ways to illustrate what's happening in your business what's happening in your life is this illustration of the changing seasons Frank sonra used to sing life is like the seasons now here's what's next you cannot change the seasons one of the things to you know come to grips with is what you can change and what you cannot change you cannot change the seasons but here's the next phrase but you can change yourself there in lies the chance to live an extraordinary life learning to change yourself in an economic sense my mentor put it this way to climb the ladder of success as high as you wish to climb here's the key work harder on yourself than you do on your job work harder on yourself than you do on your job he said if you work hard on your job you can make a living which is fine but if you work hard on yourself you could make a fortune which is super fine then let's put it in philosophical language two things on economics philosophically here's the first one I learned your income is primarily determined by your philosophy you know I didn't learn that until I was 25 years old they never taught it in high school I went to college one year and never heard it your income is Prim primarily determined by your philosophy not the economy then when I finally understood that I got excited about it because I knew I couldn't change the economy but I was assured that I certainly could change my philosophy and I did that and here's the philosophy success is something you attract by becoming an attractive person success is not something something you pursue it's something you attract so the key to the better economic future is to become an attractive person with an attractive personality an attractive list of skills your knowledge of the marketplace your ability to deal with a variety of personalities all of those things that anyone can learn with a bit of study practice repetition so the key is you cannot change the seasons but you can change yourself but let's talk about the seasons just in a brief outline here number one is the winter time I don't know where we've caught you this weekend maybe it's spring for you maybe it's summer you're toughing it out maybe it's harvest you're cashing it in if we knew the story we'd let you lecture but maybe for some of you it's one of those winter Times personal Winters social Winters economic Winters there's a variety so what about the winter make this note it always comes so you got to be prepared hopefully you've done your homework you're ready and prepared for this winter more than you were some others that have come into your life where you were less prepared make this note of a Bible story it's very important because it's one of the great lessons of life I'm an amateur on the Bible but here's what the Storyteller says there were two nice people so make the note now two nice people not one good and one evil but two nice people however and that is the drama of life however two nice people however one built his house on the rock and and the other built his house on the sand two nice people meaning it's possible for nice people to be casual it's possible for nice people to be careless and sometimes you can be careless and lose your life not evil just careless in Los Angeles now when the light turns green if you're in your car and you're there at the intersection and the light turns green you better not go for two or 3 seconds waiting for the Maniacs that are running the red light Crossing in front of you even though the light is green that little extra bit of caution rather than being aggressive little bit of caution could very well save your life here's a father who loves his family he's an honorable citizen he makes good money he contributes to the community his church he's a good man but this morning he's in a hurry in Los Angeles late for an appointment and he's pushing it and pushing it with his automobile he comes to the intersection and the light turns red and a little voice in his said head says go ahead you're late you can make it and and now he's dead you don't have to go to Iraq to lose your life you don't have to be evil to lose your life all you have to be is a little careless at an unfortunate moment so the key is to be not over cautious but to be cautious don't build your house on the sand now add this note now we're all t tempted when I was growing up there was a cartoon of a little boy and it showed this little boy with a little devil on one shoulder and a little angel on the other shoulder both whispering in his ear and the little devil said go ahead and do it it'll be okay and the little angel says no no no no no no it won't be okay yes go ahead and do it no no no how often does that occur for all of us every day go through the red light it'll be okay we must beware okay not to be careless not to be casual and build your house on the sand the same is true with your health don't build on the sand the same is true with your career don't build on the sand the same is true of being in business don't build on the sand build on the Rock because even nice people can make careless decisions casual decisions that accumulate over a period of time and those could be the winter now here's a note to make some Winters are of your own making and some are not some are just the winter experiences maybe the whole country goes through it it was a long time of winter for the Russians who lived through the Communist system for about 80 years long winter of political despair lack of freedom but what's the key to the winter here it is in simple language hang in there I mean you know Winters don't last forever some are difficult and some are easy but they never last forever the night always comes after the day but it doesn't last forever just a few more hours and if you hang in there say your prayers gather a little strength you can make it through the winter and the night so wintertime here's the next season now the season of spring make this note my definition of spring opportunity spring is not a guarantee that you're going to have a harvest but it's the opportunity to plant one it's not a guarantee that things are going to go well and you will accumulate what you need but it is an opportunity to do so spring time is opportunity now it's usually a very short season especially where I was raised in farm country Idaho so here's what you must do with opportunity seize it quickly don't let it just come and go when the window of opportunity is open to borrow a little space language when they get ready to shoot the Rockets or off into outer space there's a window they call it of opportunity to go not go when the weather's right and whatever but if if you wait a little too long the window closes and it takes a while for it to open back up so this is the key take advantage of the spring such a short season in some places they got those big tractors with the lights on them going around the clock in the short season of spring to make sure the the seeds are planted take advantage of opportunity take advantage of opportunity to meet someone who could be a colleague for your future career take advantage of the day when it arrives because the day will soon finish take advantage of the year because it will soon close take advantage now here's the next season one of the greatest illustrations of life is in the third season called the season of Summer and here it is in simple capsule form in the summer you must do two major things here they are for your notes number one nourish and give life like a mother nourish and give life like a mother next protect and defend like a father this is called the work of Summer give life like a mother take life like a father father love like a mother hate like a father any father would say to whatever threatens his family take two more steps toward this family you'll cease to exist I'm father I protect I kill if necessary so you've got to nourish your garden and then you've got to protect it by fighting the weed and the bugs that are out to destroy it as soon as you've planted the busy bugs and the noxious weeds are out to take it now put this line in your notes and they will take it unless you are extremely father-like and vigorous you have to develop a hatred for evil the old Prophet said love good and hate evil because those twin forces are at work always even in the beginning of the beginnings Lucifer according to the Storyteller tried to take over God's Throne didn't succeed and so began the story of the Creator and the spoiler and so exists for all of us this great drama of the ability to create but the Destroyer not too far away in another seminar I give here's what I say and this is good philosophy it seems like opposites are in conflict and we are in the middle evil on one side good on the other side illness on one side good health on the other side Darkness on one side light on the other side and they're in Conflict if you walk into a room that's dark and turn on the light the darkness disappears and goes away how far away does It Go not very far waiting for a chance what to come back in move in take over the territory as light begins to lose its energy Darkness moves in there's a war on it's here's what it's called put shove as we sit here right good health plan is trying to defeat illness and drive it into a small Corner if you don't work on your good health plan illness will drive your health into a small corner it's called push and shove in your bloodstream there are red cor pusles to nourish like a mother and white cor pusles to fight and kill like a father father thank God for white cor pusles that think negative all day white cor pusle say just show me some infection I'll kill it because if I don't kill it what it kills you white cus will say it's my job today to make sure you don't get killed so I'm here to fight have you got that now red to nourish white to fight so here's the key now cooperate with the positive side of this war of health and illness what if in this struggle the body calls for a banana and you send it a cocacola and now the body has the right to say What whose side are you on I'm working day and night to drive illness into a small corner and keep you healthy and you keep sending me the wrong stuff come on just a little cooperation here and we can win this game but see if you don't do your push-ups and what was that little voice in my hotel room this morning that said to me Jim ran you don't have to do your exercises this morning you're running a little late and this little creature on this shoulder almost talk me into it and the little angel says what no no no no no no fall on the floor one more time do those push-ups a few crunches a little modified version yes because you are late but you got to keep up the pace see that's called what the work of Summer now turn this around because it's also possible to love like a father and hate like a mother just so you get the job done and if it's a single sing Le parent right you got to do both the work of father and mother it's extraordinary but mother is capable of hate and defense and protect because I think years ago Papa was off providing mama was home protecting so she developed these instincts of danger in order to protect her family women are good women are unusual they have this antenna that picks up all the stuff danger in the middle of the night the baby cries Mama's awake Papa sleeps mothers sleep near the surface and the least little movement or sound they're awake it's built in the female mother at Instinct she says to her husband go look go look something isn't right you know downstairs he says no everything's fine she says go look he says okay he gets up in the middle of the night stumbles downstairs and the front door is open how did she know they just know I don't know how they know they've got this Instinct especially for danger interesting story in the Bible it says there are sheep and there are Shepherds and there are wolves fairly ordinary story Shepherds and wolves and sheep but that's not the end of the story to illustrate a point the Storyteller says there are also some wolves that have learned to dress up like sheep now you need a woman man says looks like a sheep talks like a sheep woman says ain't no sheep okay have you got this now the work of Summer here's what it's called by drama nourishing and protecting nourishing with one hand and protecting with the other hand even the battle of the Mind here's a good note to make on the battle of the mind don't become a victim of yourself in this battle of the Mind should I shouldn't I let it go no don't let it go run the red light no be a little more cautious think of your family see we we have to continually do this Beware of the thief on the street that's after your purse but also Beware of the thief in your mind that's after your promise
