Transcript of the Video:
00:00
what is the single force that controls
00:04
the quality of your life if there was
00:06
one gift our Creator has given us or the
00:10
universe whatever you believe what is it
00:12
what is the one power that you have
00:14
right now in this moment that can change
00:16
everything you haven’t I haven’t we all
00:18
have it if this one singular individual
00:20
power that can change anything in our
00:22
life regardless of what’s happened to us
00:24
and I know you know the answer the
00:25
answer is the power of choice the one
00:28
thing we have in this world is we can’t
00:30
control the events but we can choose
00:32
what to focus on we can choose what
00:35
things mean and we can choose what to do
00:37
those three choices those three
00:40
decisions really control our life it’s
00:42
not so much the conditions of our life
00:44
that control our destiny as much as the
00:47
decisions of our life try for a second
00:50
to think about something think about
00:51
your life and just think about are there
00:54
a few decisions if I were to ask you two
00:56
decisions you’ve made in life you know
00:58
that if you would have made a different
01:00
decision you would have a totally
01:02
different life I mean it may be a life
01:05
may have been better it may have been
01:06
worse I don’t know but you would have
01:08
different life I’m not asking you to to
01:11
by him the fact that you should have
01:12
known the answers I’m just wanting you
01:14
to see the power of a decision how is
01:16
your life better today because the
01:17
decision you’ve made years ago not just
01:19
negative ones think about it sometimes a
01:22
little decision changes your whole life
01:24
like you decide one day to go to a
01:27
certain school and you go to that school
01:29
or you to go eat someplace and you bump
01:32
into person that becomes the love of
01:33
your life or you meet someone and you
01:36
decide as a result of that that you’re
01:38
gonna become a photographer or a
01:40
software engineer or a business person
01:43
or a doctor or a dentist whatever they
01:47
impacted you but you made the decision
01:49
that’s what I really want that’s what
01:51
that’s what my life’s gonna be about and
01:53
that decision has affected so much of
01:55
your life what you do how you live your
01:57
life I you spend your time what you earn
01:59
or don’t earn you know who you attract
02:02
into your life beliefs you have all come
02:04
from some of these little decisions what
02:06
you decide to eat from your dinner plate
02:08
each night certainly determines your
02:09
physical death
02:10
right we all know that at least to a
02:12
certain extent I know there’s a certain
02:13
amount that’s genetics but I’m talking
02:15
about the stuff you and I can control so
02:17
decisions equal destiny it’s not our
02:20
conditions
02:20
it’s our decisions so if we want a new
02:23
life if we want a new experience we got
02:25
to make new choices if you don’t like
02:27
the way your career is or your
02:29
businesses change it if you don’t like
02:31
your body change it you don’t like your
02:32
relationship change you first because if
02:34
you change it you’ll bring you to the
02:36
next one maybe it’s time to change it
02:38
too but change yourself first if you
02:40
want to change any of your life you have
02:42
the choice so there is no right or wrong
02:44
I just want to make you aware in this
02:45
breakthrough session that everything in
02:48
our life changes the moment we make a
02:49
decision I need a real decision a
02:51
decision is when you cut off any other
02:53
possibility you commit to something with
02:55
everything you’ve got and you take
02:56
action but the big decisions start with
02:59
little decisions like what am I going to
03:00
focus on is whatever you focus on you’re
03:03
gonna feel
03:04
if you focus on all the things that had
03:07
been done to you in your life of course
03:09
you’re gonna feel like hell if you focus
03:11
on all the amazing coincidences that
03:14
have happened things that maybe they
03:17
were guided maybe thought but things
03:18
happen and because of that you met this
03:20
person that’s your best friend your
03:21
husband your wife or because of that you
03:22
have disability or because you were
03:25
there that day god you missed an
03:27
accident I don’t know what it is but
03:28
whatever you focus on you’re gonna feel
03:30
if you focus on people don’t care and
03:32
you look through reasons why they don’t
03:33
care and evidence they don’t care you’ll
03:34
find it everywhere if you look for
03:37
evidence that people are really good
03:38
people inside that at some level we all
03:39
care about each other you’ll find it
03:41
seek and you shall find the secret is
03:44
have you become conscious about your
03:46
decision-making because this
03:47
breakthrough session is really you want
03:49
to change your life make no choices new
03:51
life comes from new choices but you
03:52
gotta make conscious choices where you
03:54
make decisions about what to focus on
03:56
and what things mean what to do and your
03:58
unconscious you get pretty terrible
04:00
results usually now we’ve all done this
04:02
I do it still we all do but if you want
04:04
to change your results you got to become
04:05
more conscious in your decision-making
04:06
so think about it what you focus on you
04:09
will feel whether it’s true or not you
04:11
focus on our people don’t care you’re
04:13
gonna feel they don’t care second
04:15
decision you make is whether things mean
04:17
so you focus on something someone does
04:19
and you come up with a meaning and the
04:20
meaning is no one loves me the meaning
04:23
is they’re turning to take advantage of
04:24
me depending on what meaning you come up
04:27
with and you get to choose the meaning
04:29
of anything for some people they say
04:31
this situation happened with the economy
04:34
and what that means is I’m going broke
04:36
somebody else said the situation that
04:38
were the economy guess what that means
04:39
I’m gonna work harder I’m gonna be more
04:41
creative it changed everything everybody
04:43
else is gonna quit so we’re gonna
04:44
dominate the marketplace
04:46
Clippy able to do it
04:48
is this the end right now or is at the
04:51
beginning see whether it’s the end of
04:54
beginning is your choice you get to
04:55
decide cuz once you make up a meaning
04:57
it’s true if you think if this is the
04:58
end of a relationship are you gonna
05:01
treat people the same way as if you
05:02
think it’s the beginning of relationship
05:04
no way in fact I tell people if you want
05:07
to have a great relationship think about
05:09
this treat people like you did in the
05:11
beginning of the relationship and there
05:13
won’t be an end the meaning we give
05:15
things is very different if so we feel
05:17
different and our life is different in
05:19
the beginning you’ll do anything for
05:21
someone now you make up a new meaning
05:22
why should I have to do that for them
05:24
little choices like what to believe
05:26
about yourself what to believe about
05:27
other people whether this is the end of
05:29
the beginning start to affect your whole
05:31
life and the third decision we make we
05:33
decide with the focus on most of us
05:35
unconsciously we decide what things mean
05:37
and the third thing we decide is what
05:38
are we gonna do we decide to quit
05:43
because it’s overwhelming we decide to
05:45
get strong and focus we decide we’re
05:48
gonna turn it around we decide to wait
05:49
and see ultimately your destiny is
05:52
determined by what you do your destiny
05:55
is determined by your decisions I think
05:58
in life there’s three things there’s our
06:00
ability to choose what we’re focused on
06:02
to commit to get a result to put all our
06:05
intention and focus into something
06:06
there’s our ability to do the right
06:08
things to have the right strategy to
06:09
execute and then there’s some grace
06:12
there’s what some people call luck some
06:14
people call grace there’s if you do the
06:17
right things over and over again and
06:18
with total focus sometimes you know you
06:22
get good fortune that comes your way and
06:23
you tend to have more good fortune when
06:25
you’re totally focused and decisive and
06:26
you take lots of action than if you kind
06:28
of just sit around and accept things
06:29
like but you don’t have a future we
06:32
forget that you don’t have to be famous
06:34
to have the ability to change at least
06:36
your own personal history to change the
06:38
direction we go in our life we have the
06:40
power to choose even if you haven’t
06:42
before you can finally say no more I
06:43
won’t put up with that
06:45
within myself or from anybody else
06:47
here’s what I’m gonna do differently
06:48
that’s where the breakthroughs really
06:51
start to happen now the question is why
06:54
do some people stand their ground and
06:56
make something change versus other
06:58
people just kind of accept things why do
07:01
some people make bold decisions and
07:04
other people make decisions that are
07:06
based on trying to hang on to what
07:08
they’ve got because when you can change
07:10
your decisions you can change your life
07:11
and you can change the force that
07:13
controls your decisions you can change
07:15
anything in your life
07:25
they’ll find five reasons that empower
07:28
you why is it that you deserve your goal
07:31
what are the five reasons that you won’t
07:33
give up when life catch you on the
07:35
blindside when the messenger of misery
07:37
visits you what are you going to do what
07:41
will keep you in the game when life
07:43
knocks you to the canvas see the Buster
07:46
Douglas that fought in the last fight
07:48
was not the Buster Douglas that fought
07:51
Mike Tyson see the Buster Douglas that
07:53
got knocked down while fighting Mike
07:55
Tyson had gotten out of an alcohol
07:57
recovery center his mother had died his
08:00
wife was ill with a terminal illness he
08:03
was considered a nothing a bum so when
08:06
he got knocked down Buster Douglas had a
08:09
reason to get back up because he said
08:11
I’m dedicating this fight to the memory
08:13
of my mama but when he fought the last
08:16
fight that he had and he got knocked
08:18
down and he had a guaranteed twenty-four
08:21
million dollars in his pocket where he
08:24
got up enough
08:26
he just said hurry up and count me out
08:31
[Music]
08:37
and I don’t blame me why get hurt
08:41
said no why’d you leave so soon
08:43
somebody’s about to get hurt me so
08:47
you’ve got to have some reasons that
08:48
when life knocks you down and it’s gone
08:50
to hell oh it’s going to knock you down
08:52
when people disappoint you and that’s
08:55
going to happen when they betray you and
08:57
that’s going to happen when they lied to
08:59
you and that’s going to happen they said
09:00
oh you can count on me and they won’t
09:02
show up and that’s going to happen when
09:04
you want to throw in the towel and give
09:06
up yourself and that’s going to happen
09:07
when life collapse on you and catch you
09:09
on the Blind Side it drops you to your
09:11
knees to start showing you you got a
09:12
dream though I got no dream and that’s
09:16
gonna happen what reason can you
09:18
remember that you can call on that you
09:20
can reach on that can make you get back
09:22
up find that reason because your life it
09:25
knocked me down I said life I’m doing
09:27
this because I want to make my momma
09:29
proud of me I’m doing this because I
09:30
want my children to have a better life
09:32
than what I had
09:33
I’m doing this because all my life I’ve
09:35
been told I’d be a loser that I wouldn’t
09:36
make it all my life I heard people said
09:38
maybe take him back to the welfare
09:40
department I’m doing this to make them
09:42
Allah I believe like Frank Sinatra he
09:44
said the best revenge in life is massive
09:46
success I’m doing this so I can become
09:48
massively successful and with that kind
09:50
of courage with that kind of affirmation
09:52
and reason to empower me I got a saying
09:54
that when life knocks you down try and
09:56
land on your back because if you can
09:57
look up you can get up
10:09
so when you run out of money when things
10:13
don’t work out for you when things
10:15
happen that you could not anticipate
10:17
what are the reasons that you can think
10:19
of that can keep this strong that can
10:22
keep you in the game that will be your
10:24
rod and staff to comfort you that can be
10:26
your bridge over troubled waters those
10:28
reasons a very important Nietzsche said
10:30
if you know the why for living you can
10:32
endure almost any how so find out the
10:36
reasons that you do what you do find out
10:38
the reasons that will make you strong
10:40
that will make you walk by faith and not
10:42
by sight that will make you pursue your
10:44
dream and everybody is against you or
10:47
don’t believe in your no more and let me
10:49
tell you something that’s a lonely
10:50
feeling it’s a lonely feeling
10:52
particularly people that you’re doing it
10:54
for or people that stand to benefit the
10:56
most or people who should be the number
10:58
one members in the encouragement Club
11:00
but they end up saying you can’t do it
11:03
and they become members of the
11:04
discouragement Club oh it hurts very
11:07
badly I know what that’s like have
11:10
people that you love close to you they
11:12
look at you with that look and say why
11:13
don’t you try something else
11:14
why don’t you give up I said but this is
11:18
my life I have got to do this less you
11:22
had a good job at Sears that man like
11:27
you mama I can’t go back you see I get I
11:31
can’t do I got to be my own boss I I
11:34
can’t do that I mean you know it’s it’s
11:36
ladies and gentlemen you don’t you work
11:38
on a job that’s dead in you can see the
11:41
ceiling already it’s like going in the
11:43
middle of a movie and after you’ve seen
11:46
the movie sitting back through that over
11:48
again there’s something missing you know
11:50
the hero’s not gonna die you know what
11:52
the outcome is already and so that’s why
11:54
a lot of people lady was telling me she
11:56
said when she went to work stuff like a
11:57
refrigerator fell on her shoulder as
12:00
soon as she stepped in because she knew
12:02
she could gone as far as she could go
12:04
see they’re paying her just enough to
12:06
keep her from quitting and she’s worked
12:08
just hard enough just to keep from
12:09
getting fired how many of you know
12:11
people like that raise hands
12:12
why do you didn’t raise your hand you
12:13
the world
12:16
I’ll just eat without just feed all
12:18
right here’s something else make a
12:20
commitment to be happy
12:23
see you know I have you’re laughing a
12:26
lot see life is too short
12:28
going through a look at home lit titled
12:29
ugly sometimes we take life too
12:33
seriously
12:34
oh no make a commitment to be happy fine
12:37
little things just to get tickled about
12:40
and laugh find ways to be happy in the
12:43
moment a lot of people say well I’ll be
12:45
happy when I pay off all my bills I’ll
12:47
be happy when I get my divorce
12:49
oh no don’t I’ll be happy with the
12:51
children god oh no no you want to be
12:53
happy now see there are no guarantees no
12:56
one say you’re gonna be here two three
12:57
or four years from now so you want to be
13:00
happy right now in the moment repeat out
13:02
to me I must make a commitment
13:05
to be happy right now right now it’s all
13:11
I got
13:12
take somebody’s hand on your right and
13:14
left it’s that you deserve to be happy
13:20
make a commitment to be happy because
13:24
life now has new meaning for you just
13:26
enjoying the sunset or just looking at
13:29
life looking at nature going for walk
13:32
it’s the little things in life that
13:34
counts
13:35
here’s something else that you want to
13:36
begin to do in order to make this your
13:37
decade you want to begin to get all the
13:41
toxic people out of your life hello
13:46
energy drainers get them out of your
13:48
life see ladies and gentlemen it takes a
13:51
lot of energy to reach your goal takes a
13:54
lot of emotional mental and spiritual
13:56
energy to reach your goal and you can
13:59
run faster with a hundred who want to go
14:02
than with one around your neck so there
14:06
are two kinds of relationships since
14:08
Simon talks about this nourishing
14:10
relationships and toxic relationships
14:12
nourishing relationships are the
14:14
relationships that inspire you they
14:16
motivate you they bring the best out of
14:18
you
14:19
toxic relationships are relationships
14:21
with people that always criticize you
14:24
all they can do is find for all they can
14:27
do is just exploit your weaknesses all
14:29
they can do is remind you of the
14:31
mistakes that you’ve made in the past
14:32
these people are bad for your health
14:35
toxic people can run your blood pressure
14:38
up one Apple could spoil the whole
14:40
barrel one negative energy or energy
14:42
drainer can spoil your whole life I know
14:46
people who lives have been ruined
14:47
because somebody wasn’t good for them
14:51
see there’s some people that aren’t good
14:53
for you
14:53
hello they aren’t good for you’ve got to
14:58
get them out of your life see a lot of
15:01
people put up with a lot of foolishness
15:02
because they don’t want to die by
15:04
themselves here’s what I believe I
15:06
believe in a 1/2 a box theory
15:13
[Music]
15:18
as this question of yourself make a list
15:21
of who you communicate with most and ask
15:23
yourself the question what kind of
15:24
person am i becoming because of this
15:26
relationship does it helping me to grow
15:29
mentally and emotionally and spiritually
15:31
am i becoming a better person because of
15:34
this relationship do they bring out the
15:36
best in me do they inspire me do they
15:40
encourage me to develop my greatness do
15:42
they make me stretch so you got to look
15:45
at the people in your life and find out
15:47
what kind of person are you becoming
15:49
because of that relationship my mother
15:51
used to say birds of a feather flock
15:54
together you run around with losers you
15:57
will end up a loser
