i don’t know what that dream is that you have, i don’t care howdisappointing it might have been as you’ve been working toward that dream, butthat dream that you’re holding in your mind, that it’s possible!
some of you already know, that it’s hard, it’s not easy, it’s hard changingyour life. that in the process of working on your dreams you are going to incura lot of disappointment, a lot of failure, a lot of pain. there are moments thatyou are going to doubt yourself. you said, god why is this happening to me? i’mjust trying to take care of my family, trying to give them a good life, i’m nottrying to steal o-r rob from anybody. why does this have to happen to me. fo-rthose of you that have experienced some hardships – don’t give up on yourdream.
the rough times are gonna come, but they have not come to stay, they havecome to pass. greatness, is not this wonderful, esoteric, illusive, god likefeature that only the special among can achieve. it’s something that trulyexists, in all of us. it’s very important for you to believe that you are theone!
most people they raise a family, they earn a living a-n-d then they die.they stop growing, they stop working on themselves, they stop stretching, thestop pushing themselves. then a lot of people like to complain but they don’twanna do anything about their situation. a-n-d most people don’t work on theirdreams – why?
1. is because of fear, fear of failure “what if things don’t work out“?
2. is fair of success “what if they do a-n-d i can’t handle it?”
these are not risk takers
you have spent so much time with other people, you have spent so much timetrying to get people to like you, you know other people mo-re than you knowyourself. you’ve studied them, you know about them, you want to hang out withthem, you want to be just like them. you’ve invested so much time on them, youdon’t know who you are. i challenge you to spend time by yourself.
it’s necessary, that you get the losers out of your life, if you want tolive your dream. but people who are running towards their dreams, life has aspecial kind of meaning. when you become the ‘right-person’, what you do is youstart separating yourself from other people you begin to have a certainuniqueness, as long as you follow other people, as long as you are being a‘copy-cat’, you will never ever be the best copy-cat in the world but you willbe the best you can be!
i challenge you to define your value.
everybody won’t see it, everybody won’t join you, everybody won’t have thevision…it’s necessary to know that you are an uncommon breed. it’s necessarythat you align yourself with people a-n-d attract people into your business, whoare hungry, people who are unstoppable a-n-d unreasonable, people who arerefusing to live life just as it is a-n-d who want mo-re!
the people that are living their dreams are parting with winners, to attachthemselves to the a-n-d the people who are living their dreams are the peoplethat know that if it’s going to happen it’s up to them!
if you want to be mo-re successful, if you want to have a-n-d do stuff younever done before then i’m asking you to invest in you! someone’s opinion of youdoes not have to become your reality. you don’t have to go through life being avictim. a-n-d even though you face disappointments, you have to know withinyourself that ‘i can do this, even if no one else sees it for me, i must see itfor myself!’
no matter how bad it is, how hard it gets, say to yourself, i’m going tomake it!
i wanna represent an idea. i wanna represent possibilities. some of youright now, you wanna go to the next level. you wanna be a civil engineer, youwanna council, you wanna be a doctor.
listen to me: you can’t get to that level. you can’t get to that leveluntil you start to invest in your mind.
i dare you to invest in your mind.
i dare you to invest time. i dare you to be alone. i dare you to spend anhour alone to get to know yourself. i challenge you to get to a place wherepeople do not like o-r do not even bother you anymore. why? because you’re notconcerned with making them happy anyway. because you’re trying to blow up.you’re trying to get to the next level. because you’re investing in yourmind.
if you’re still talking about your dream a-n-d your goals but you have notdone anything just take the first step.
you can make your parents proud, you can make your school proud you cantouch millions of people’s lives a-n-d the world will never be the same againbecause you came this way. don’t let anybody steal your dream!
after we face a rejection a-n-d a “no” o-r we have a meeting a-n-d no oneshows up, o-r somebody says “you can count on me” a-n-d they don’t come through,what if we have that kind of attitude that cause reposes, nobody believes inyou, you’ve lost again, a-n-d again, the lights are cut off but you are stilllooking at your dream, reviewing it everyday a-n-d saying to yourself: it’s notover until i win!
you can live your dream!
我不管你的梦想是什么，也不管你在追求梦想的途中，经历了多少挫折和痛苦，只要你始终坚持自己的梦想，它就有实现的一天!你们有的知道这很难，你们很难改变自己的生活轨迹，在追求梦想的过程中，你将遭遇数不尽的挫折、失败和痛苦， 很多时候你甚至会怀疑你自己。你说，老天为什么会让我遇上这种事情，我只想照顾好我的家人，给他们安定的生活，我本分做人，不偷不抢，老天为什么对我那么不公平。如果你们有人经历过这样的磨难，请不要放弃心中的梦想!
艰难困苦有时尽，磨难终究会过去，卓越和伟大不是那么崇高辉煌、遥不可攀。上天钟爱的特质，只有少数特别的人才具备，这种东西其实潜藏在我们每一个人身上，你务必要相信——你也能发掘这种潜能!
大多数人整日里只为养家糊口而奔忙，庸庸碌碌了此一生，他们放弃了成长和自致的机会，放弃了施展才华、挑战自我的可能。很多人因此而满腹牢骚、怨天尤人，可他们不愿意有所作为、改变现状，大部分人没有实现梦想的斗志，为什么?
一是害怕失败，“如果到头来一场空怎么办?”
二是担忧成功，“如果到时候我做不了呢?”
他们都是看客，不是冒险者!
你用了太多的时间去跟随别人，花了太多的心思让人们认可你、喜欢你，你对他人的了解胜过了解你自己，你会琢磨、探究他们的心思，你想跟他们聚在一起，你只想跟他们一样，因为你在他们身上投入了太多，你都忘了你自己是谁，你能不能自主支配你的时间?
把失败者赶出你的生活圈子，这样你才能更好地去实现你的梦想，对于追求梦想的人来说，他的人生意义与众不同。当你成为了这样的人，你会开始脱离其他人的生活轨迹，开始展现自己的独特和个性，如果你继续亦步亦趋地跟随他人，甘愿做一个盲目的模仿者，你永远没有出人头地的时候，反之，你可以成为最好的你!
我建议你界定下自己的价值，其他人看不见这个，他们也不会加入你的人生，因为他们看不到……你要知道你不是普通的看客，你要招引志同道合的人携手同行，你们追求梦想的脚步无可阻挡，你们拒绝满足现状!追求，永不停歇!勇于追求梦想的人是未来的成功者。他们知道成功与否只在于他们自己。
如果你想取得更大的成功，拥有或者从事前所未有的事业，那么我建议你对自己投资! 旁人对你的看法不能成为你迁就的理由。
你不需要一辈子被旁人所左右，即便你自己遭遇种.种挫折，你要确信，我可以克服，即使没有人看好我，我自己要清醒看到!不管过程有多么的曲折、艰辛，你都要对自己说，我会走到终点!我想实现自己的想法、探索各种可能性，你们在座的有些人想进入更好的层次：有的想当律师，有的想成为土木工程师，有的想当医生。我想说，你进不了那个层次，除非你开始投资你的头脑。你要投资于你自己的头脑，你要投入更多的时间，你要学会与自己相处，每天花一个小时来了解你自己。你要去他人不喜欢或打扰不到你的地方，因为你将不用再费心去取悦他们，你要力争上游、进入更好的层次，你要投资给你自己的头脑，即便你每天大谈自己的理想抱负，但你什么也没做。
只是开了个头，你的父母会为你感到自豪，你的母校会为你感到骄傲，你会影响数百万人的生活，整个世界都会因之而改变。因为你在追求自己的梦想。不要让任何人窃取了它!即便我们遭到冷淡的拒绝，演讲没有一个人捧场，你信赖的人没有支持你到最后，即便你得不到任何回应，没有人相信你的能力，你一次又一次地失败，在黑暗中孤独摸索，你也依然坚持自己的梦想，每天提醒自己并对自己说，“我将奋斗不息，直到成功!”
我可以实现我的梦想!
