I always wanted to be an inspiration for
people.
I want to inspire you to create a vision.
And use your will to accomplish it.
In these ways I'm very happy to take the
torch,
and to be a role model for others, because I've always had great role models myself.
Now every time a me the
great person,
I tried to ask the angle that has
worked for them.
I know that there are 1000 keys to
success
and I love distilling new rules from my
experience and theirs.
Woven through the stores in
this memoir
are some of the principles of success
that have worked for me.
When I talk graduating classes I always
try to offer lessons everyone can use
like have a vision, trust yourself, break
some rules,
ignore the naysayers, and don't be afraid
to fail.
When someone tells you "no" you should
hear "yes".
Impossible was a word that I loved to
ignore.
The only way to make the possible,
possible. Is to try the impossible
If you fail... So what!
That's what everyone expects.
Forget "Plan
B". Change takes big balls!
To test to self and grow you have to operated without a safety net.
if there is no "Plan B" then "Plan A" has to work.
If you're anxious, instead of making fallback plans,
think about the worst that can happen if
you fail.
I mean how bad could be?
You quickly find out its really nothing.
Never followed the crowd, go where its empty.
I think it's easy to stand
out when you aim strait for the top.
No matter what you do in life, selling is part of it.
People can be great poets, great writers, geniuses in the lab.
You can do the finest work, and if people don't know, you have nothing, absolutely nothing.
The day has 24 hours
I once gave a talk at the University of California,
and after my talk, a student raised his hand and complain.
Governor since the budget
crisis hit us,
my tuitions have been going up twice
already. I mean when is this going to stop?
So I said "Well I understand its difficult. But, what do you mean it's too high.
Now I have to work part time in order to support the tuition.
I have to study! I am going to class I cannot make it. I don't have the time to go part-time work, and do all that.
So said "Well
let's figure this out,
"I mean how many hours do you go to class, how much studying, do you do
will have to do so far I've six hours
one day and 7 hours the other day
what do you do with the rest of the time
a citizen
the day's 24 hours have you ever thought
about looking more
a century of those extra hours available
maybe even taking more classes
rather than wasting your life away oh
rather than complaining
that maybe the government is responsible
for you education and you have no
responsibility
with a class was shocked to hear me say
this: you talking about six hours a day
the day's 24 hours so you have
18 hours left so if you part time job
takes four hours you still have time for
dating
dancing drinking going out and doing all
kinds of things
why are you complaining he said so I
explained how I as a student
I train five hours a day for the Miss
Golden become division
in gun go acting classes in the evening
from age to 11:30 almost four hours
I worked in construction several hours a
day in going to college
and done my homework I don't all of that
and let me tell you
I was not the only one bid was as
energetic in my class in Santa Monica
College in at UCLA Extension
there were people who were also working
full time and still be went to school
it's natural to hope for someone else to
put the bill but
I think there's nothing wrong with
everyone chipping in the low bid
in making some sacrifices to make it
happen because it is you education
reps reps reps you need reps
the more you do it the bet it is writing
out my cause became second nature
and so did the conviction that there are
no shortcuts Dukan grids and even
thousands have gripped additions
hour after hour it was or about doing it
over
and away game you have to go from one in
the night and do the reps into the
mileage
and that's when you get good that's just
the way it is is no shortcut
take care of your body and your mind you
have to build
of the mid physical machine but you also
have to build
all committed mind for people who are
successful with intelligence
I pursued the plies they need to
exercise the body everyday
don't overthink this doesn't mean that
you should use your brain
but Potter buzz needs to go swim i've
also instinctively
but not analyzing everything you could
relive all the garbage to blow job
and bugs you down the more you know the
more he has dated
which is why he would the smartest boy
big time
don't blame your parents and if you've
been left with problems
those problems and now used to solve its
road
maybe brentwood to supportive with the
protective
maybe they were too harsh who knows look
I love my father and I was a little kid
and always wanted to be like him
but then laid on I hated the pressure
did good my brother and me on to
he was brutal at times but i think is to
scan because he was in the war
be viewed live in and one walk away he
would've been a different person
so I've often wondered what if you had
been wallman
nice to me would have left austria would
have been as hungry as a was
probably not and that is my fear I
became honored because
what he did to me I recognize good I
could
channel my upbringing in a positive way
rather than
loopback and complainant I could use it
so it could create a vision do have
goals
his harsh news drove me from the home it
maybe come to America
and look for success
I'm happy you did the passage near the
end of Conan the Barbarian
is always stuck to me actually as
Coleman
is about to kill him and the bench his
parents
also doom says who is your father
if it is not me who gave you do will to
live
I am the Wellspring reach you
flow so it's not always obvious would
you should celebrate
sometimes you have to appreciate that
very people in the circumstances
to dramatize you the day I Hill District
news of my father
and have my whole upbringing in the fact
that they did not have everything that I
wanted in Austria
because goes with the berry factors that
made me hungry
every time he hit me every damn he said
no weight training was garbage
and every damn he disapproved of me or
embarrassed me
it but fuel under fire in my belly it
drove me
added motivated me stay hungry
be hungry for success hungry to make you
mock
hungry to be seen to be heard and have
an effect
and as you move up become was successful
make sure did you also be hungry
for helping others so many accomplished
people just Coast
there's so much more to live just being
the greatest in one thing
so why not use down for the connections
in to do more with all those things
we can reach out we can help our
neighborhoods
in the fuel decide to do more they go
all out
my father always told me the use for
do something he was right liver risk you
live
the spice United everyday do something
that scares you we should all stay
hungry
