00:00:00.000 What's your purpose?
00:00:18.440 What is the bigger picture?
00:00:19.440 I can talk about that for an hour on one of my purposes but I'm driven by history.
00:00:24.040 But that didn't happen overnight.
00:00:25.920 You know, the saying goes, sometimes on the way to a dream, you get lost and find a bigger
00:00:30.760 one.
00:00:31.760 A bigger dream.
00:00:32.760 You think it was all about the car.
00:00:34.120 You think it was all about the recognition.
00:00:35.920 You think it was all about the fame.
00:00:37.620 You think it was all about the status.
00:00:38.980 You think it was all about landing that girl.
00:00:40.520 You think it's all about all these other things but it's much bigger than that.
00:00:43.340 Then all of a sudden, one day you have a conversation with somebody or watch a video or watch a movie
00:00:47.440 or meet someone that just, boom, hits you in the face and says, wait a minute.
00:00:51.460 What the hell have I been thinking about?
00:00:53.640 I was put on this planet to do dot, dot, dot.
00:00:56.960 Now you're talking purpose.
00:00:58.660 Now you're talking purpose.
00:01:00.380 Very few people reach this level.
00:01:01.920 Why?
00:01:02.920 Very simple.
00:01:03.920 Too lazy to actually spend time thinking about it.
00:01:07.540 They're afraid.
00:01:08.540 What if I could do it?
00:01:10.000 And they don't process the issue well.
00:01:11.880 So they don't take time out to ask the question, what do you really want to do with your life?
00:01:15.920 What do you really want to do with this?
00:01:17.540 I'm around a lot of different people, a lot of different people.
00:01:20.800 And I'll sit there and have conversations, you know what, I just partied with Jay-Z last
00:01:24.120 week.
00:01:25.120 And?
00:01:26.120 Jay-Z's a human being.
00:01:28.120 You know, I just did this and I just did that.
00:01:29.620 I love nice cars because I love the history and the engineering.
00:01:33.180 I love it.
00:01:34.300 I got an Ayrton Center painting here.
00:01:36.120 I got things some Ayrton Center fans that send me all the time.
00:01:39.500 Why?
00:01:40.500 Because I'm fascinated by the guy died on, I think, May 3rd, 1994, you know, from a race 1.00
00:01:47.800 that he was on.
00:01:48.800 May 1st or May 3rd, 1995, at the age of 34 years old, after being a three-time champion
00:01:52.820 and he should have been four-time against pro stand.
00:01:55.260 His mom in a clip says, I'm just so proud of my son because he's made us, and you see
00:01:59.660 him trying to wipe his tears, and the day he won the race in Brazil, he had never won
00:02:05.240 in Brazil, and he won the race in Brazil, and his shoulders, he can't pull up his shoulders,
00:02:08.500 and he gets out and he's just asking for his dad, asking for his dad, and he hugs his dad,
00:02:12.660 and he says, Dad, my shoulders are tight, and he doesn't know how to lift up the champion.
00:02:16.660 That's emotional.
00:02:17.660 That's exciting to me.
00:02:20.900 That's fascinating to me.
00:02:22.660 For a human being to truly want to find out, what's their maximum capacity?
00:02:27.360 Where the entire country was emotional when Senna died.
00:02:30.720 I mean, people said, we are one of the poorest countries in the world.
00:02:33.160 We have nothing going on.
00:02:34.420 The only thing we had going on was Ayrton Senna, and I went, that's emotional.
00:02:39.040 That's purpose.
00:02:40.040 I want to make an impact that's bigger than that.
00:02:42.580 But it only happens if you're actually willing to sit down and ask some of the questions,
00:02:47.160 the important questions in life, and I think, unfortunately, so many times, you're just going,
00:02:50.900 going, going, going, going, going, so eventually, you don't ask the important questions in life
00:02:56.160 until it's your funeral.
00:02:57.160 It's already too late.
00:02:58.160 And just so you know, about 7 billion people do this every 80 years.
00:03:03.140 I suggest you not be part of the 7 billion.
00:03:05.460 You be part of the small community of people that says, you know what, maybe I'm not going
00:03:09.560 to start a company, but I'm going to be part of a company, and you better believe that
00:03:13.480 company is going to be impacted because of what I'm going to do, and one day I'm going
00:03:16.520 to own a piece of that company.
00:03:17.520 That's fine.
00:03:18.520 Maybe I am going to be a founder.
00:03:20.160 Maybe we are going to take the money that I'm making, and I'm going to go back and
00:03:22.700 teach the world about entrepreneurship.
00:03:24.660 That's what I'm going to do.
00:03:25.660 Last level.
00:03:26.660 Level number four.
00:03:27.660 So, as you process this and go through it, again, you can ask yourself the question, but
00:03:32.520 this is the evolution of your why.
00:03:34.700 And don't you think it's time for you, as you're watching this, to have your why evolve.
