00:00:22.260
i want you to think back over the last 1000 days that you've had on this earth i want you to think
00:00:32.240
back on those thousand days i want you i want you to be honest i want you to be real honest with
00:00:36.780
yourself i want you to ask yourself have you done what it is you needed to do over those last 1000
00:00:47.600
days to produce the life that you want be honest
00:00:55.120
not many people will be honest answering that question
00:01:01.000
the last 1000 days if you could look me in the eye and tell me that you've done every single
00:01:10.580
thing you could possibly do and you're still not even close to where you want to be you're
00:01:17.580
not even on the track to where you want to be you're a liar
00:01:22.020
right now it's real confusing time in america and across the world right now we have the victim
00:01:31.320
culture shoved down our throats everywhere everybody's a victim about everything there's
00:01:39.060
no denying that everybody wants something for nothing everybody wants to compete about how
00:01:49.960
hard their life has been they want to complain they want to scream they want to shout about the
00:01:57.980
disadvantages that they've had they want to talk about their story and they want you to hear their
00:02:04.900
story about how much harder it's been for them than it is for everybody else
00:02:10.540
that's what's popular that's what is produced from a culture that rewards children not for winning
00:02:23.720
but for participating that's what happens when a culture tells people that everybody wins
00:02:33.600
when they don't that's what happens when we're inundated with advertisements of all different
00:02:44.320
sorts from all different fields that convince us that we can have the life of our dreams
00:02:50.880
in 21 days we can lose 100 pounds in a month we can become a millionaire from our basements
00:03:02.980
but you can't and you know you can't and most people are going to spend their entire lives
00:03:14.420
wondering why their life looks nothing like they want it to look
00:03:20.160
when if we took the last 1000 days and we played that video up here on the screen in my room right
00:03:30.420
now and we were honest and we sat down and we looked at it and we said okay well let's let's take
00:03:36.560
inventory over what you did for the last 1000 days I can promise you that the people who did
00:03:42.740
execute and the people who have come to the plate and took big swings over and over and over again
00:03:51.800
every single day regardless of how they felt regardless of what the circumstances are regardless
00:03:58.980
of how much they wanted to or didn't want to they still showed up committed to taking those swings
00:04:07.440
I promise you if we watch that video the results would tell the story
00:04:11.960
and where you are right now has nothing to do with your ability or your inability
00:04:19.540
it has nothing to do with what race you are it has nothing to do with what gender you are
00:04:26.540
it has nothing to do with what sexual orientation you are
00:04:30.560
it has nothing to do with anything other than what you've chosen to spend your time doing these
00:04:39.380
last 1000 days now I'm not saying that the 1000 days will have you exactly where they want because
00:04:47.480
I can tell you for the last 1000 days I have executed am I where I want to be no I'm not am I
00:04:55.180
tremendously further than I was 1000 days ago yes I am
00:05:09.500
is to realize a couple things one of them is this
00:05:13.420
time is still ticking and eventually all this crazy
00:05:21.140
is going to subside it's going to go back to being
00:05:25.760
a situation where you have to go out and make something of yourself
00:05:30.480
and when that time comes and when that time happens
00:05:36.640
are you going to just automatically switch it on
00:05:40.700
do you think that that's going to be the time that you start
00:07:21.940
without you being who the fuck you are right now
