Let me explain to you the power of these two words.

So I just did a conference call earlier, about 20 minutes prior to this.
00:00:30.000
We're shopping at a lot of different arenas here that we can fit 14,000, 15,000 people.
00:00:33.760
I'll tell you the story here in a minute on why we're doing that while we're looking at
00:00:38.220
But, you know, the one thing I can tell you is almost anybody, anybody that makes it to
00:00:44.400
the highest level, at one point when nobody believed who they were going to be, they sold
00:00:52.480
the people around them, that one day, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot.
00:01:11.600
One day, guys, we're going to build the biggest company in California.
00:01:16.300
Biggest company in America, biggest company in the world.

Martin Luther King once said, I have a dream that one day my four children will not be judged
00:01:30.680
by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
00:01:38.660
Cost him his life, but one day became a reality.
00:01:43.620
In the movie, Back to the Future, Goldie Wilson, the guy would go around saying, I'm going
00:01:48.920
I'm going to be the mayor of this town one day.
00:02:05.240
You know how many stories I can tell you about one day?
00:02:07.000
Earlier today, I had a meeting with Frank Collada.
00:02:08.500
Frank Collada, if you've seen the movie Casino, if you've seen the movie Casino with Robert
00:02:11.820
De Niro, Joe Pesci, all those guys, Sharon Stone.
00:02:15.120
Joe Pesci plays the story, a role of Tony Spallatra.
00:02:23.060
Frank Collada was his number one underboss, like his first lieutenant.
00:02:27.300
He moved here from Chicago to help Spallatra in Vegas.
00:02:32.880
Frank Collada was known as one of the toughest guys in the streets of Chicago that they were
00:02:39.040
He said, since 14 years old, when he was a nobody, and I was a nobody, because Tony didn't
00:02:45.800
He kept telling everybody, one day, I'm going to be a boss.
00:02:50.540
One day, he says, we heard it so many times, mid-40s, he became a boss.
00:02:56.100
Martin Luther King, his dream became a reality.
00:03:01.420
We're in Las Vegas looking at a conference here, arenas, Mario and I, and we're looking at
00:03:07.120
Today we looked at one arena, and I walk in, this place fits 15,000 people.
00:03:12.720
When I walk in, I walked in this place a couple of weeks ago.
00:03:15.760
First experience I had when I walked in, is I went in, and I just immediately saw the
00:03:21.440
walk that I had, because I went to this place back in 2002, same location.
00:03:29.640
When I walked in in 2002, I sat with my girlfriend all the way in the back, and I sat and we left,
00:03:36.460
and I said, one day, we're going to be doing this.
00:03:42.520
One day, fast forward years later, this one day is becoming a reality.
00:03:46.740
We're probably going to end up signing a contract with these guys.
00:03:48.840
They're going to make somewhere between five, six, seven million dollars, just to sign this
00:03:52.840
One day, one day, one day, it's like you sitting down, your mom, your dad, your brother, your
00:03:58.660
sister, your cousins, your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife, kids, people you work with, and
00:04:07.460
One day, babe, we're going to travel the world.
00:04:09.720
One day, babe, I'm going to buy you 10,000 square foot houses.
00:04:12.660
One day, dad, the world's going to know our last name.
00:04:19.920
We are going to build something that the history books are going to write about.
00:04:28.540
He says, one day, I'm going to be in Mr. Olympia.
00:04:30.480
Arnold said, one day, I'm going to win Mr. Olympia.
00:04:35.060
I'm going to marry a Kennedy, then I'm going to be a governor.
00:04:38.420
One day, one day, one day, all of those things became a reality.
00:04:44.760
So, you may say, Pat, I can't wait to get off this video and go tell my friends, family,
00:04:48.640
peers, loved ones, that one day ... Here's the best thing about one day.
00:04:52.640
When you do say that, there's nothing worse than the pressure you're going to get.
00:04:58.140
If you tell people that one day you're going to do this, it's a lot of pressure.
00:05:02.740
But if it's really true and it matters to you that much, you will one day make that become
00:05:10.740
Because for every one person that says one day, there's nine people that say one day that
00:05:15.640
I don't want to kind of, you know, build this up as an, oh my gosh, you're going to say
00:05:20.640
Because one out of the ten when they say one day, they fully mean it.
00:05:25.140
One out of the ten when they say one day, they're going to do whatever they can to make
00:05:29.140
And then you've got to say it over and over and over and over and over until everybody
00:05:36.140
says, oh my gosh, if I hear it one more time ... How many times did he say, I have a dream?
00:05:57.140
And then you realize, if you make it to the top, if you do, I don't know if you will.
00:06:03.140
But if you make it to the top, you will very quickly realize, the people around you will
00:06:08.140
also be other people that at one point said, one day, dot, dot, dot.
00:06:15.140
And I tell you one thing for a fact, that circle, you are going to love being part of
00:06:22.140
So, hopefully one day, you are going to go out there and do something with your life that
00:06:31.140
