So this is for all my analyzers.
[19]
I feel you.
[20]
I see you.
[21]
So there’s a chicken waiting to cross the road, but she can’t make a decision.
[27]
She’s waiting to cross the road, but she’s not clear if she should cross now or when
[31]
the light is green or when the light is yellow or when her makeup is better or when she has
[35]
a better job or when things are a little better or when she makes a little more money.
[39]
You see, that chicken died of starvation.
[42]
It’s called paralysis of analysis.
[46]
So many decisions that you make no decision.
[49]
So many choices, so many options that you make no decision.
[55]
In our culture right now, we’re so obsessed with the finished product.
[60]
We’re so obsessed with slam dunking and being the LeBron James and all of those things.
[69]
But the problem is we don’t see all the ā€œNO’sā€ that Oprah got before she got
[76]
the ā€œYES.ā€
[77]
We don’t see the Knights in the gym with Kobe Bryant shooting those free throws.
[83]
We don’t see Steve Jobs being fired from his own, damn company.
[89]
All of this stuff, all of these things, we are so obsessed with the end result and we
[94]
miss the fact that failure is a key component.
[97]
You want to win?
[98]
You have to start failing.
[100]
You have to do, you have to jump, you have to get in the damn game.
[106]
This life is about experience.
[108]
Life honors the LIVE-r.
[110]
Yes, I have a lot of energy in my body and I’m moving, but guess what…I’m doing!
[115]
Something.
[116]
You have to do something.
[118]
You have to step up in your life and jump.
[121]
So many people are sitting on their fence of life.
[124]
They’re watching, waiting, trying to figure out if it’s time.
[127]
Well it’s never going to be the right time.
[129]
The right time is NOW.
[130]
Now, now, now, now!
[132]
Every time.
[134]
Don’t wait for the right job or the perfect mate or the right money.
[138]
ā€œI gotta pay my mortgage off before I live.ā€
[140]
ā€œI’m going to take that trip two years from now when I get the right job.ā€
[145]
Live it now.
[148]
You never know when ā€œthat dayā€ will come.
[153]
We all have an expiration date.
[155]
I’ve seen it too many times where people die with the dance still in them.
[160]
We don’t want to die with our dance still in us.
[165]
Die with it all out on the field.
[170]
How do we do that?
[173]
We stop thinking so much and get in our damn bodies.
[177]
Live it.
[178]
Love it.
[179]
Do it.
[180]
Be it.
[181]
See it.
[184]
How awesome is this life we have?!
[186]
We just have to choose it.
[190]
Choose the love.
[192]
Today I ask you to do one thing: I ask you to fall in love with failure.
[197]
Wherever your comfort zone is, like if your comfort zone is a four, I’m challenging
[205]
you to go to a six.
[209]
Do anything that is a six.
[214]
Today.
[216]
Do it now!
