if you take a oak tree seed and you put it in a two-foot pot that seed will never become the oak tree that oak trees are capable of becoming because it's gonna get stifled by the two foot pot now check this out ain't nothing wrong with the seed [Music] seed just fell prey to the environment you are a seed from god god made you in his likeness he big he vast don't you allow your environment to dictate the oak tree that you become don't die with this gift and don't never use it all y'all got this wonderful gift but you gotta use it take your seat take your gift get away from these people that's in your life that ain't doing nothing [Music] i said i'll step it's back there's nothing to do about it you can't do though it goes wrong apply pressure to it ask the guys in the world is this all you have you might not have the money you might not have the education you might not have the support of the resources you need what is that something that can keep us going that will enable us to act on our dream what's one of those keys it's all i want you to do when you look at your dream you say to yourself every day it's possible i've been on this quest to figure out how can a person get on a journey to dreams goals and aspirations and the moment he hits opposition adversity or challenge it doesn't mean anything to him anymore to go i said man is your happiness that cheap like is your dedication that cheap is your level of commitment that details where all it takes is for something not to go the way that i want it to go and i'm not the same individual and the level of which i once can't i no longer care that deep about like is it that cheap like is that all it takes for me to get started and something doesn't go the way that i wanted to go and i'm not i'm not i'm not invested in it anymore and what i've always wanted to do was be committed beyond circumstance [Music] the darkness the sun doesn't shine every day the storms will come there are times when the nights will be long and dark and you will be alone even in the darkest times even in the strongest storms even when the sun is blotted out and the world is falling apart the darkness cannot extinguish your light what it's really going to take for you to get to that next level is to understand that the person that you are has gotten you as far as is ever going to get you so you've got to become a new person you literally have to adapt now the great news is that is what humans are wired to do humans are the ultimate adaptation machine when you're willing to put yourself under those kinds of stresses to become that new thing you want to become to be the new person that you want to be to go farther than anyone you know has ever gone to be the go it is possible but it demands a price it demands a price you're not understanding that the adversity the struggle the the hard times the difficult things the frustration those are the things that create our skill sets those are the lessons that we learn that give us the skills to then put the skills into play and produce a better life here's the deal if you get to the top of the tree all the fruit from the bottom at the top is going to be there son so i don't need you focusing on cars and money and stuff you're going to get that i need you to focus on why you were born in the first place why are you here on earth for this particular time what are you doing here meaning my greatness and my excellence can't be compartmentalized to an individual to an environment to a circumstance meaning it is my essence i show up and i want to impact because this is who i am as an individual it's my essence meaning when the adversity and the opposition hit like the only thing i've been trained to do was to think positive and look positive i've reverse engineered it no matter how hard the fight is as long as you keep fighting you win your dna is in your dream your dna is in your dream surrender is defeat only quitting is the end because the darkness only wins if you let it [Music] i don't care how dog can look for you i don't care what what they just said to you i don't care what the verdict is i don't care what the haters say prayer change things you constantly remind yourself after every defeat after every setback every time you get knocked down i've got a saying if life knocks you down try and land on your back because if you can look up you can get up we can talk about and whine about and cry about everything in our lives but there's only one thing that's going to change it and that's actually taking action towards the place that you want to go the world is not like the movies the movies are real they don't exist [Music] but you do and life this life is it's better than any movie there is movies are supposed to provoke emotion they're supposed to make you feel something [Music] but i have a better idea go out into the world and actually feel it [Music] you
