Martin Luther King jr and Albert Schweitzer and Mahatma Gandhi it was a very brilliant writer he wrote some things that really grabs me he he wrote deep is to hunger the voice of the genuine the centering moment during the time after receiving 238 radiation seed implants I was reflecting on his words and and these words kept me up that night he said the ideal situation for a man a woman to die is to have family members praying with them as they cross over he said but imagine if you will being on your deathbed and standing around your bed the ghosts of the dreams the ideas the abilities the talents given to you by life and that you for whatever reason you never went after that dream you never acted on those ideas you never use those talents you never use those gifts and there they are standing around your bed looking at you with large angry eyes saying we came to you and only you could have given us life and now we must die with you forever and the question is if you died today what dreams what ideas what talents what books what music what leadership what voice will die with you mouths Monroe breaks Laura 10-speaker said the wealthiest place on the planet it's not in a forest where there's oil in the ground it's not in South Africa whether diamond mines is it the wealthiest place on the planet is the cemetery but you there you'll find greatness that we've never seen there you find challenging genius and potential never actualize perhaps that's why Henry David Thoreau wrote the words Oh God to reach the point of death only to realize that you've never lived maybe that's why some unknown writer wrote the words what if you live your whole life only to discover that it was wrong that it was wrong that you were chosen to do something else and you didn't do it repeat as we please live full die empty I want you to take some notes and some things and I want you to think about your goals and dreams in the three categories that I mentioned personal professional and your social contribution how many of you serious about your goals and dreams raise your hands please thank you very much how many of you don't want to take your dreams to your grave with you raise your hands please very good shake someone's hand on your right and left look them in the eyes and say get out of your head and step into your greatness do that right now please say get out of your head and step into your greatness I want you to write this down let us say together as you think about your goals and dreams let us say together it's possible together please yes write that down see ladies and gentlemen as an entrepreneur I've been an entrepreneur for twenty years it's my 21st year I could have been speaking and training for 34 years but for 14 years I was living in my head for 14 years I stopped myself for 14 years I used to go see Zig Ziglar that I considered a number-one motivational speaker on the planet Zig Ziglar and Tony Robbins they're the best on the planet Bob Procter they are the best on the planet Jack Canfield Mark Victor Hansen TR Beckett I would go and see them and then I would leave in my conversation with myself was my heart would say I can do that and then my mind would ask how how would you do that Les Brown see when I was in the fifth grade I was identified as EMR labeled educable mentally retarded put back from the fifth grade to the fourth grade I failed again when I was in the eighth grade I have no college training and a man changed my life and I'll never forget his name mr Leroy Washington he's in his 80s now and and he's blind from glaucoma but he he gave me a different vision of myself I was in his class waiting on another student he came in and said young man got a board to work this problem up for me I said Oh sir I can't do that said why not I said I'm I'm not going to be a student said look at me yes sir go to the board and work the problem out anyhow I said sir I can't do that is it why is it sir because I'm a jerk about mental retarded sir I'm in special education and the students started laughing they said that's Leslie that's not Wesley he's DT Wesley is too smart when he said what does DT stand for I said um I'm the dumb twin sir and as the students laughed at me he came from behind his desk he looked at me he said don't you ever say that again someone's opinion of you does not have to become your reality on one hand I was humiliated but on the other hand I was liberated because he looked at me with the eyes of Goethe who said look at a man the way that he is he only becomes worse but look at him as if he were what he could be then it becomes what he should be and so we developed a relationship and one of the things that I can just tell you as you think about your goals and dreams all of us can say in the spirit of integrity that it's possible that if anybody did appointed time live their dream then it's possible that I could live mine and what I did was I made a mistake I looked at my goals and dreams and my mind said how will you do that I went from my heart my mind and I stayed up there for 14 years 14 years I can't bring those 14 years back those years are gone and I've made a mission in my life to help people to stop putting it off and for Christ lady how many ever thought about something you wanted to do and you procrastinate you talk yourself out of it raise your hand please there's a proverb that says if there's no enemy within the enemy outside can do us no harm and so as you look at your goals and dreams every day we must convince ourselves we must sell ourselves on that it's possible every seminar every workshop every book that I've ever read every speaker that I've ever heard it interrupted what I was believing about myself everything that you do everything matters as you go through each day I know now as I look back at age 63 looking at my life everything matters t harv is right how you do anything is how you do everything and I realize that the choices I was making was based upon how I saw myself let us say together it's necessary write that down it's necessary as you look at your goals your dreams it's necessary the chaplet a strategy and a game plan to change the story that you believe about yourself and that's an ongoing process I discovered and many people have that what we do when we accomplish what we produce is a result of the story we believe about ourselves my favorite book says begin our conformed to this will be transformed by the renewing of your mind and so as I began to work on myself I realized that I'm getting out of one story and stepping into another story as I become aware of some things and still some things I'm not aware of so I still I'm still growing I'm still developing I'm like the ladies that law eight what a wannabe what I'm gonna be but thank God I show eight what I was but I realized that the you have to work on yourself at a regular basis and write this out for mental mindset for mental mindset and stamina because things are going to happen to you I don't believe I believe that the reason that most people go to their graves with their talents and abilities and skills in them is because of the fact number one minute like me they didn't know that they didn't know him and thought they knew I thought I knew myself and I really didn't know myself as well as I thought I discovered that sometimes people can take you to a place within yourself that you can't go by yourself the other reason is I was afraid I never worked for a major corporation I want to speak for corporations I was afraid I would I would be exposed because I don't have a college education I felt inferior because of the fact that I don't have a college education I allowed at that level of fear of failure to stop me and because I never had an experience in it I assumed that I could not do it I was paralyzing myself by believing and assuming the limited part of myself as opposed to believing that I had something special you have something special there's something you want to do because you don't know how to do it doesn't mean that you can't learn I like something that I've heard you don't have to be great to get started but you have to get started to be great repeat up and please leap and grow your wings on the way down see the people that will live their dreams the 2% that will do that these are and write this down become a risk-taker they're risk takers they don't mind failing they don't mind making mistakes they're willing to take life on take life in the kala viscosity if you're not willing to risk you can't grow and if you cannot grow you cannot become your best and if you cannot become your best you can't be happy and if you can't be happy then what else is there I like what Helen Keller said she said life is short and unpredictable eating the dessert first
