We've all heard the sound of a clockHave you ever stopped to think about what it means?There are two fixed points in your life...Birthand DeathAnd what happens in between that's under your control,it's the only thing under your controlNow, we have no idea what the distance between birth and death is going to be.And you've heard the story so many timesSomebody gets really bad news, they find out they've got life threatening cancer,they've only got a few months to live, they quit their job, sell all their possessionsand go volunteering in a far-off countrygiving back to other people, spending time with the people important to themand spending time doing the things that really matter the most.So, why is it that we wait for such a massive moment for us to take massive action?What if you could change everything today?What if you could change everything in an instant? Right nowWatching this video on YouTube, on your phone or your laptop, or wherever you are.What if change could happen?I don't care how good you are, I don't care how talented you are,I don't care how much you work on yourself,there are some times when things aren't going to go rightThey're just not going to go rightThere are times where anything that can happen, will happenMurphy's Law will be knocking at your doorWhy? I don't know why, that's called lifeand you have to deal with itSometimes your life will be in a slumpjust like sports,some of the best shooters can't hit baskets in different times and games,they get in a slump. Do they sit on the sidelines and say: "you know I just didn't hit a basket today”No!They continue to executeI suggest to you that if you are facing a challenge...Don't stopStay busy, work your plan, continue to do those things that you know that work for youafter you have evaluated yourself in the situation,
continue to move, stay busy, stay busy, stay busy,
repeat after to me: "help somebody
and help yourself
because what you give is what you get"Find somebody that you can help so you can forget about you for a moment.See, sometimes the best thing to do is to beSometimes you have to just back up and go within yourselfAnd I think there's a simple thing that you need,that we hear again and again in these motivational speeches,and it's a simple wordbut it's misunderstoodand it's "Belief"If you're going to really change,first thing that you have to move from an opinion to a belief,and a belief into a conviction is thatYou are the one that can change,you are the one that is responsible for who you are,where you are in life right now,the things that you do, the things that you don't do,that you know that you should,the things that you have become,the person that you've become,and as a result the things that you have.And there's all kinds of things going on right now,there's all kinds of thoughts going on right now,there's all kinds of feeling but amidst all of those things,amidst the sea of confusion that you might feelLet me ask you a very simple question, a very basic question:Do you believe that you have the power to change?Time is all we haveThis momentRight nowThere's only one thing in our lives that we're never able to reacquire once it's gone,and I'm not talking about money, I'm not talking about material items,I'm talking about timeAnd it's such a unique concept, a unique idea,because when utilized correctly, it contains the ingredients to success,to happiness, to growth, prosperity all the things we want,but at the very same time, if neglected it leaves us with very little.Because the truth is every morning when you wake upyou are living minutes you will never get back,you are breathing air you will never take in again,it is your one opportunity to embrace this gift,and every second sees a little of it slip away.And my point is that there is no moment more important, more perfect, than right now,not in a week, not after your promotion, not in 30 years when you plan to retire and relax.
Right nowSee, we have this mentality that the future is going to somehow mean more than the present,that if we suffer now, or if we're unhappy now,that will save the best in life for some other time But the reality is we don't get youngerYes! We should be working hard, absolutely, success comes from effort,hard work, dedication, persistence, but the key isAllocate your precious time to the work, to the things that make you feel like today is powerful,that right now is so amazing you don't want it to end.Today is when you take the first step towards the things you wantWhen you become who you want to becomeNone is ever or will ever keep you from thatother than yourselfThere is no ceiling, there is no limitation, there is no special requirement.
there is you and what you allow yourself to accomplish,you are the gatekeeper, you have your foot on the gas pedal.And it's so easy to point to others, right?To point to our environment, to blame things on everything,but our own decision, our decision to stick to the status quo,because believe it or not, it is that simpleyou are where you are because that's where you decided to be,and you've accepted that as okayLook, if you want change, then manufacture change,create a plan and move, go, transform, step out of your head and into the real world.
Think about how lucky we are,
