Les Brown - that a lot of things that we want to do a lot of places we would like to go a
lot of things we would like to experience and we just stop at buck and
we build a case in fact I was reading something the other day that talked
about but it says but is an argument for our limitations and when we argue for
our limitations we get to keep them see but will cost you to procrastinate
but will cause you to hide out behind fear but will cause you to come up with
all type of excuses that you can validate you're in action and not acting
on your dream and right now more than ever people need to look for ways to
live their dream people need to look for ways to make it on their own there is no
such thing as job security there's no such thing as a storm proof or tragic
proof life there's no guarantees today ladies and gentlemen the illusion is
gone there was a time when when we graduated from high school you're told
go to college and get out and you go and work for a corporation for 30 or 40
years and give your goal watching you'll retire special announcement that day is
gone that day is gone never to return again so instead of people living in
fear feeling stressed out feeling powerless feeling like victims I think
it should be a time that we need to begin to look at ways that we can become
an active force in our own lives look at ways when we can decide to take charge
of our own destiny look at ways when we can decide to design a life of substance
and begin to truly live our dreams and it's time for people decide I'm ready to
get on with my life shake somebody's hand on your writing
life a guy named Bob may say they say don't let nobody turn you around do that
right quick now you're not a lot of people say I'm going to live my life one
day when things get right when I get Alma Beals page when I give
my feet on the ground I say what have you been walking on see there no problem
free moments guy named dimples had a record one time call if it ain't one
thing it's another and I say if it ain't one thing is
twelve others always something there debilitates and why you can't move on
why you can't grow to the next level why you can't begin to manifest your
greatness why you can't begin to live life on your terms always something
there to block you to keep you where you are and keep you from beginning to
develop your true greatness always some fear how do we handle it and I'm saying
that if you've been hiding out behind but if you've been using the fact that
you don't have enough money or you don't have the education take it head on don't
get the education I'm saying to a guy the other day who was saying he said how
old are youse is 47 years old I said your sister tell me that you can't read
he said that's right I said why well you know I I didn't go to school excuse me
how old are you I'm 47 47 yes and you can't read or write yes have you ever
heard of adults school adult education have you decided that you should learn
how to read to begin to expand your world why are you using that as a racket
why don't you decide now that you can expand your world that if other people
can learn you could learn too well it's hard for me how do you have you been and
sit in a class yet have you signed up yet no I haven't see a lot of people say
no ladies and gentlemen two things and they don't even know what they're saying
no to ever even challenge themselves he hasn't even gone to sit into a class
and say teach me how to read instead it's been easier for him to go through
life he thinks trying to play a hole con game pretending he knows how to do
something that he doesn't know how to do and you know what most of us go through
life like that most of us go through life pretending
pretending that we're satisfied where we are pretending that everything is okay
pretending that that we don't have any special goals or ambitions or desires
when really deep down inside we do really want more but if you look at our
behavior if you judge based upon what we do and really will tell you some true
stories of our people because you have to judge a tree by the fruit it bears
not the fruit that it talks about see a lot of people pretend that they want
more out of life but all you have to do is watch their actions that will tell
you something so I used to pretend that I want to lose weight but how could you
tell I was pretending watch me when I have a piece of sweet potato pie peanuts
some potato chips say I was pretending that I really wanted to lose weight no
you just watch what I eat that tell you what I'm seriously committed to people
tell you all yeah one day I want to have a restaurant see they're pretending they
want to go into business for themselves
watch what they're doing the proof is in the pudding so if you want to do
something if you've thought about something you want to do take it head on
decide that you're going to start looking at it start doing research on it
start tackling it start becoming involved in whatever and wherever it
might lead you to begin to explore the possibilities in that particular thing
that you're seeking so that you can begin to learn all you can about it
decide that you're going to face it that whatever shortcomings you have that
you're going to strip in yourself there whatever training is required that
you're going to go get that training that you're gonna get started right now
the George Washington Carver which they do what you can where you are with what
you have and never be satisfied yes be fully used to say are you heard Joe W
talk about always trying to be more than that which you are yeah don't get
satisfied with yourself always know that wherever you are you can enjoy more that
you deserve more but most people you know they do most people go through life
quietly and safely tiptoe in turn early grave find out what it is you want and
go after it as if your life did on it why because it does people that
have found their passion people that found the things that they love people
that have found the things that they can pour their lives into those people live
longer I was in New York and I had to do a seminar at a special Church and a guy
by the name of Reverend Johnny Youngblood and I said how is it that you
were able to build this big housing facility and got all of the various
community and religious groups together to to have this dwelling for 2,000
residents that were were once homeless how were you able to take on this
responsibility wasn't it overwhelming he said the kind of work I do he said it's
in me I've got to live what's in me and I think that's everybody's desire in
life you got to live what's in you life is just too short and unpredictable but
what are what are we saved but but there always be tomorrow oh no there's no
guarantees you're gonna show up tomorrow a lot of people who are here yesterday
that they're not here today there are a lot of opportunities that were around
yesterday they're not here today oh you can wait but you know what Abraham
Lincoln said well good things might come to those or to who wait but all of the
things that have been left over by those who hustle
so who want to go through life picking up leftovers you deserve much more than
that the leftovers that somebody has left you so take it head-on
begin to explore here's something else decide to do it now decide whatever you
want to do that you are now going to become actively involved right now
exploring the possibilities for you that you're going to look at it and do just a
little bit of it right now when I decided to become a speaker I didn't
just quit my job and just ran out and say I'm a motivational speaker know what
I did was I decided to start looking at other people that were involved in the
speaking profession I volunteered to work with some speakers so that I could
learn whatever you want to do get your feet wet gain some experience doing some
volunteer work in the area and find out whether or not this thing you want to do
will fit for you friend of mine told me he wanted to have a restaurant and say
have you ever operated restaurant before he said no I said we're really you know
you want one I said what's your expertise what do you bring to the table
he said I can cook real good I said well what about the management side what
about the business part of the restaurant you're not gonna be cooking
all the time somebody's got to receive the money
who's gonna manage the personality said you got it right you got a point there
so this guy got a job in a restaurant in the evening time on a part-time basis
after doing that for a while he said you know what I think I just want to be a
chef he said after working there people didn't show up the working it's as hard
to find the help people weren't responsible they headaches the guess
what gives giving him problems day in and day out they weren't ever satisfied
he said no I just think I'll stick to cooking see you gotta find out what fits
for you because you might decide after you go up in there and examine it and
experience it and get some experience on the ax belt on it well you said this is
really not what I want this does not fit for me
so decide that you're going to do that now Johnny Johnson said something that's
very important he said there's no defense against an excellence that meets
a pressing public need see whatever you decide to do look at it and find out
what is it that I have that I could bring to the table that can begin to
enable me to ensure that I could be successful in this where is the opening
for you there's room for you out here out here in the arena called life
there's room for you to come out and live your dream don't allow but to keep
you in the corner or keep you up in the bleachers looking at life being a
spectator not being a participant making a difference in life I believe that all
of us came here with something all of us showed up to give something and that
nobody but nobody's going to give that service that you have to give no one's
going to produce your product no one's going to write your book no one's going
to open your Academy no one's going to begin to create your date here with a
special curriculum to help to cultivate the high self esteem and our children
that's your idea and if you don't bring your ID out here when you die all of us
will suffer because we've been deprived of your genius because you're allowed
but to keep you in the bleachers and not pursuing your greatness you take it
I agree with you and that's what most people do I think that's why the guy
said that many people die at age 21 and don't get buried until they're 65
they're walking dead you can tell him by the way they walk how'd it look in the
fence when they speak to you I was giving a speech of this high school and
a lady came after school she said mr. brown I want to talk to you about my son
I said what is it she said he's not motivated I said I wonder why you gotta
have energy ladies and gentlemen you got to have life if you excited about what
you're doing even in the area of selling you know people don't buy because of
logical reasoning people buy because of your way of feeling people don't like to
be robbed their people oh no let the dead bury the dead no no keep him away
from before they grab you what a whole load to use over so the fact that that
whatever you do you want to be excited about you want to have the kind of
excitement that is so contagious that people want to be around you because
whatever you're doing whatever you talk to people about this particular idea
that you have they're looking at you and they want to know do you believe it and
are you the kind of person they want to be in business with and if you're not
positive if you're not energetic if you're not fired up about it how can you
expect anybody else to be fired up about your idea I'm all right all right repeat
after me please I'm gonna be fired up about my dream I'm gonna go at it
with everything I got shake somebody's hand on your right and left and say you
got what it takes there are a lot of people who say but I
tried once or twice and it didn't work out and so they use that as an excuse
not to ever come out again guys said if at first you don't succeed you're
running about average so so so if you have come out here with an idea and it
didn't work out two or three times well that's all right you're running about
average you know I heard something a jarring question it says why is it that
people prefer known hell's to unknown heavens you know why because it's
comfortable ladies and gentlemen I remember I was in a service once and I
heard dr. Johnny Coleman give this example she talked about a man who had
been captured behind the enemy lines in a war and was sentenced to to be killed
or another option the captain said to the guy listen he said tomorrow morning
at 6 o'clock you can face the firing squad or you can go out this door over
here and the guy said what's off the door he said no one knows all we can
tell you just unknown horrors he thought and the next morning he selected the
firing squad after the shots rang out the captain's secretary said what's
beyond that door and he said freedom but very few people would select to do it
because it's unknown see a lot of people never live their dreams a lot of people
never do the things they want to do a lot of people stay on jobs where they're
miserable I read an I don't recall is your job making you sick a lot of people
some of y'all know about that already so don't say Amen it's alright
then one lady told she said less when I used to go to work she said when I
stepped in the door felt like a refrigerator dropped on my shoulders how
many all understand that kind of feeling they were miserable just hated to go
after 60 minutes on Sunday afternoon or come Monday morning my head used to
thrive I just couldn't take it didn't wanna go sometimes just just for the
heck of I just drive on by I used to hate to go to work many of us choose an
active living death many of us are Walking Dead The Walking Dead that we're
not doing what we want to do many of us stay in relationships where we're dying
together rather than growing and expanding and living together we're
miserable but because we don't have the courage to see ourselves beyond that
relationship that is turned toxic we go through life living dead people and then
you can always tell couples that have been together for a little while born a
restaurant the one sitting side-by-side giggling and talking to each other feed
each other when they're Farkus food they just got together forward wheel
you see them in the car they sitting all of each other hook in this mug or
they've been together about three days now but if you see people to the
restaurant to you know see a couple and they're sitting in front of each other
take so long for this food I wonder when they go hurry up those are the married
was four years living in two separate rooms sleeping in two separate beds well
is cheaper to keep it not necessarily it's a quarter to the price you want to
pay see the price of peace of mind the price of living the truth of being
honest with your servants at wait a minute it's got to be more than this so
you've got to decide wait wait even if I things don't work out even if I
experienced defeat a failure that does not make me a failure it's a difference
between failing and being a failure if you if things don't work out if you
don't produce the results you want that's all but don't confuse who you are
with the results that you produce I used to be a state legislator in Columbus
Ohio and I remember once I who was going to introduce some legislation on the
floor and after getting that legislation passed a guy came up behind me and he
had some legislation that I opposed him on that and I was about to stand up to
debate this guy and he got next to me said sku don't don't debate that guy why
do you know who that is I said no it's will cause key from Toledo it's a bad
dude he's a lawyer less that man can debate I don't care less brown maybe
Browns
sorry raise my hand miss mr. speaker he said the gentleman from the 29th House
District say yes serves to tell the gentleman I like to take him on
challenge him on this legislation he said well cause he said I would more
than like to mr. speaker everybody say whoa I asked him some
questions he responded I say I wonder why instead man that question well cos
he won't be out I mean I was up there and I just limping back to my room about
yes I can't add up however here's what I learned when you win see you if I win a
debate I win because of what I know when I lose I lose because what I don't know
so I had to check out what is it that I did not know I wasn't prepared I did not
do enough research I did not do my homework so he handled me like he wanted
to so I came back again I waited on some other legislation did my homework but he
was more than able to take me out again but pretty soon each time it would take
him it would become a little bit more difficult and a little bit more
difficult and the older guy say would you argue in behalf of at this
legislation for me I said sure I started volunteering to do work in the
legislative committees for the older guys I said absolutely and the more I
did it the better I became and then people began to start respecting me and
when I would ask her said Mr Speaker I like to speak on that bill so guys lips
start wriggling and stuff like Jimmy on it
oh wait a minute anything ruffle do we have a problem
