Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives.

All comes down to today,

and either,

we heal

as a team

or we gonna crumble. Inch by inch,

play by play. Until we're finished.

We're in hell right now.

But I tell you there are some times in life where you fall down and feel like you don't have the strength to get back up.

So you sort put a mask on your face and come to school

and pretend that everything is okay when it's not and you go home

and lay in your bed when no one's looking at you,

when you don't have to impress anybody and you're yourself.

And fear comes in.

You know the fear that you have as soon as you walk into the doors of your house?

Maybe is a broken home

Maybe you have doubt in your life

Maybe you don't know for sure what's going on to be happening in the future and it scares you.

Maybe about, maybe you're worried about what people think about you,

what people say about you.

Just that fear paralyzes you

and I just want to ask to you today:

do you think you have hope?

Let me tell you something you already know.

The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows.

It's a very mean and nasty place

and I don't care how tough you are

it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it

You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life

but it ain't about how hard you hit

it's about how hard you can get hit

and keep moving forward

how much you can take and keep moving forward

That's how winning is done!

Pain is temporary

it may last for a minute, or an hour,

or a day, or even a year

but eventually

it will subside

and something else will take its place.

If I quit however, it will last forever

I'm down here

face down

and I have no arms and no legs.

It should be impossible for me to get back up.

It should be impossible for me to get back up. But it's not.

You see, I will try 100 times to get up

and if I fail 100 times, if I fail and I give up

do you think that I'm ever going to give up? No!

But if I fail and I try again?

And again and again?

For as long as I try there is always that chance of me getting up

You find out life's game inches

so is football

Because in either game, life or football

the margin for error is so small

I mean

one half a step too late or too early and you don't quite make it

one half second too slow, too fast and you don't quite catch it

the inches we need are everywhere around us

Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth.

But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying

you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody

Cowards do that and that ain't you. You better than that!

The most important thing is this: to be able at any moment

to sacrifice

what you are

for what you will become

I'm saying to you today that there are some of you,

if you give up your cellphone you will be successful

Some of you need to give up your cellphones because the time you spent

on your cellphones

could be use for your successful!

The time you can be using to be successful you're using on the cell

and the cellphones is not bringing nothing but a bill.

Very often you're getting what you're asking for

you is not aware of how general you're asking

Clarity is power! The more clear you are about exactly what do you want and more your brain knows how to get there.

You're brain is a survival mechanism.

If you don't know exactly what you want or let yourself get me on that something general you're not going to achieve

Clarity is power. You gotta love the specific result you have to what you want.

You can answer the question right now in your personal life, in your body,

in your relationship and your finances and your spirituality

you're not going to be as simple as you want to be

Says: it's easy to be on the bottom, it doesn't take the half to be a loser

Does taking the motivation and drive and none stays out there on a

low-level but it calls on everything, me and you, ladies and gentleman

you have the hot issue to say: I'm going to challenge myself

sometimes I have to pull myself out a bit. Came on!

Things I know I should do I don't do, things I shouldn't do I do

I find that the biggest enemy you have to deal with is yourself!

Let no man forget

how menacing we are, we are lions! Immortality!

Don't tell me what I can't do!

Of course it was impossible to connect the dots

looking forward when I was in collage

But it was very, very clear looking backwards 10 years later.

Again,

you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.

So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.

You have to trust in something,

your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.

Because believing that the dots will connect down the road

will give you the confidence

to follow your heart.

Even when it leads you off the well worn path and that will make all the difference

I'm gonna show you how great I am!
