1
No one said that the path is gonna be easy and it's not
2
We know life is rough and we know there will be pain
3
and whether that pain is at the hands of an enemy
4
or at the hands of nature or time or Disease there will be pain
5
That's the way life is
6
You have been disappointed over and over and over again and And every time you try, nobody notices.
7
And every time you try, you come up short.
8
Sickness is cyclical.
9
It comes around, it goes around.
10
You're well for a little while, and then it's the same thing all over again, but this time it's only worse.
11
Because now, not only are you back where you started, but you have less hope that it is ever going to be different, because you've cycled through it one more time,
12
just to realize, well I guess I'm just a cynical person.
13
Well I guess I'm just a negative person.
14
I guess nobody in my family was meant to go to college.
15
Sickness becomes normal to you.
16
And it starts to be easier for you to just accept the condition than to challenge it.
17
Because to challenge the condition means to risk disappointment.
18
And some of us have tried, got blocked.
19
Tried, got blocked.
20
Tried, got blocked.
21
And now people see you and they assume that you don't care.
22
No, I care.
23
I cared and I cared so much, but they didn't care back.
24
And I tried so hard and I still got looked over.
25
And don't you know it's hard when your expectation has been damaged by disappointment?
26
It's a slow damage, it's a slow tearing of the muscle fibers.
27
It's a slow deterioration of your hope by disappointment.
28
It is not one event that creates it.
29
It's over and over.
30
I tried and I tried and I smiled and I stayed and I disciplined and I showed up and I didn't care.
31
And the man has finally gotten to a place where he is tired of trying.
32
You might even feel like there's no hope.
33
But you know what?
34
Doesn't matter.
35
Keep fighting.
36
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
37
But that doesn't happen on its own.
38
You have to choose to get stronger.
39
Keep fighting, keep going, and don't give up.
40
Because the only real failure is actually giving up.
41
And if you don't give up, you will win.
42
No matter what is happening, no matter how hard the fight is, as long as you keep fighting, you win.
43
Only surrender is defeat.
44
Only quitting is the end.
45
So fight on.
46
For a diamond to be produced, it has to go through extreme pressure, extreme heat.
47
And if that wasn't enough, what makes a diamond a diamond is the cuts.
48
If you want to be a diamond, you must go through extreme pressure.
49
If you can't take pressure, then you're not a diamond.
50
After you go through all the pressure you thought you could not handle and you think it's over, then they turn on the heat.
51
Listen to me very closely if you've ever studied the diamond.
52
Once it goes through that type of pressure and it finally becomes a diamond, at that point you can't break it no more.
53
I've been broken so much.
54
I've been defeated so much.
55
I've been disappointed so much in my life.
56
And I know what it feels like.
57
I can't do it.
58
Once you get to that point, you cannot be broken anymore.
59
You already have time.
60
Get a reward for it.
61
Life happens.
62
Can you give me 120 to just fight everything that's going on?
63
I never quit.
64
I never stopped.
65
I never gave up.
66
We just kept doing what we're doing.
67
It's about heart.
68
You gotta have heart.
69
Pain is temporary.
70
It may last for a minute or an hour or a day or even a year.
71
But eventually, it will subside and something else will take its place.
72
If I quit, however, it will last forever.
73
I dare you to take a little pain.
74
I dare you not to go home.
75
Somebody said I don't go home.
76
I feel bad go through it You ain't gonna die at the end of pain
77
and success in the midst of everything we going through I don't need you to talk negative.
78
I don't need you to speak negativity We are under dark times right now, but stay encouraged
79
Stay encouraged
80
Keep your head up stick your chest out
81
Continue to walk with pride and know
82
that not only shall we overcome many of us have already overcome and if it was easy Everybody would do it.
83
It's not gonna be easy, but we have what it takes.
84
It's in our DNA Don't look at night at darkness.
85
Look at night as a new beginning At some point if you live in this life,
86
you're gonna face Disappointment you're gonna face defeat you're gonna face devastation Some bad things don't happen to you That's life
87
You're gonna get some setbacks you're gonna lose some loved ones.
88
I don't care who you are, I don't care what you do, at some time you are going to get tired.
89
At some time you're going to get on a rut, seem like nothing you do works out right.
90
And sometimes it just seems like you just don't have the wherewithal or the will to do anything.
91
And depressed, feeling powerless, feeling useless.
92
What do you do?
93
How do you get yourself out of a rut?
94
How do you know you can do more than what you've been doing, and you're not doing it, and you're discontinuing where you are?
95
You get angry at yourself.
96
We have all these new thoughts that come about.
97
You start saying to yourself, I'm so alone.
98
Nobody understands me.
99
Nobody gets me.
100
I'm the only one to ever go through something like this.
101
I'm a mess up.
102
I'm a failure.
103
I'd be better off not being here.
104
Nobody would miss me.
105
I'm all alone right now.
106
Why would anybody care if I was gone?
107
Here I am.
108
I'm just alone.
109
We just keep feeding ourselves this toxic thinking.
110
You've got to find ways to increase your sense of self-appreciation.
111
Because if you don't you are bombarded with negative stuff every day that beats you down and you will find yourself
112
Unconsciously engaged in self-destructive behavior
113
if you don't program yourself life will program you It doesn't
114
matter about what happens to you what matters is what are you going to do about it?
115
as you go through the challenges of life and
116
You look at it and embrace whatever comes to you don't run from it Step toward it, don't try and duck it like most people do.
117
See, most people want it easy.
118
See, easy come, easy go.
119
But when you go at what you're going to deal with, and you deal with the difficulties of it, when you handle those hard things close at hand,
120
making those hard decisions right now, that you don't want to make, but you know that in order for you to get where you want to go,
121
this is one of the hoops that you have to flip through.
122
This is what you do.
123
You are built for this.
124
You would just believe that your day coming, that the sacrifices you are making today, they gonna pay off.
125
But if you do not believe, it ain't gonna happen.
126
Keep fighting in the midst of the struggle.
127
Keep fighting.
128
Keep thinking positive.
129
You only lose when you quit.
130
It'd be one thing if life was like NASCAR
131
When you only have one lap left they wave the white flag To let you know this is the last one, this is it If you can make it around here,
132
your race is done But life doesn't wave a white flag So then we wave our white flag
133
Not even knowing that just around the next turn turn, just around the next sacrifice, just if you can make it through this season,
134
just if you don't give up in this trial, see, the reason you can't stop is because you might be so close,
135
wouldn't it be a shame for you to quit when you're this close, wouldn't it be a shame for you to walk away when you've come this far,
136
wouldn't it be horrible for Are you to bail out when you're just this close to victory?
137
You can't walk by what you see.
138
You can't give up cause it doesn't feel good.
139
You can't let people talk you out of it.
140
You can't let your emotions stop you from moving forward.
141
Keep believing, keep moving, keep marching, keep crawling, keep inching.
142
This might be the day, this might be the one.
143
You thought you were just gonna have a dream and a goal
144
And you were just gonna wake up and just walk into the sunset You're like dream?
145
Boom It don't work like that You have a dream and then life punks you
146
Life punks you and say do you really want this?
147
I'm gonna give your wife MS do you really want this?
148
Five of your aunts gonna die of cancer do you really want this?
149
You gonna lose friends do you really want this?
150
Do you really want this?
151
Cousins gonna bandy people
152
that you used to be like this whip don't thank you booze you don't want to deal with you
153
It's a part of it, but I paid too much And
154
so I'm telling y'all you have come too far to quit
155
now You have invested too much to quit now you have
156
lost too much to quit now get a reward for your pain Don't cry about it get a reward for it
157
We are still here.
158
We are still in the game.
159
We have not been defeated So stand up straight.
160
Stand up straight and march forward.
161
And give someone else some encouragement.
162
Let them see you standing strong.
163
Set an example.
164
And by our very posture, by our very being, we will let the world know that we are here to win.
165
You have absolutely nothing to do with what happened to you.
166
It's not your fault.
167
But if I come back a week later, you're still on the ground.
168
If I come back a year later, you still on the ground?
169
That's your fault.
170
If you get knocked down, there's nothing you can do about it.
171
But getting back up has every single thing to do with you.
172
And you will promise me that from this day forward, you will not be defeated.
173
I need you to make up in your mind that the only way you can lose is if you quit.
174
I just need you to keep going.
175
You don't even know how creative you are until you run out of options.
176
I am excited about your future because your darkness is about to be your development Now listen to me.
177
I don't care what you're going through if you not dead he ain't through with you yet
178
As long as you waking up you still in the game
179
as long as you are you can still make it happen I am sick
180
and tired of people coming to me saying that they had a setback.
181
It is a part I love the Sun, but things don't grow because of the Sun you have to have some Rain
182
and you've got to stop looking at rain in your life
183
as something bad my greatest moments didn't come from my greatest moments My greatest moments came from my greatest defeats
184
Because it was during my defeat That I had to find a way to get back up
185
If you're tired of starting over It's over!
186
Stop quitting!
187
If your life at times feels like, looks like labor, you're doing it right!
188
Keep on pushing.
189
I'm telling you what, there is breakthrough coming, and when you're holding your prize, the pain and the suffering will pale in comparison.
190
Don't give up!
191
It will be worth it!
192
Life is 10% what happens to you, 90% how you react.
193
You gonna need some energy, you gonna need something that's so powerful.
194
You gonna need something with real life happen, you gonna need some energy that can get you going and get you through this.
195
And I'm telling you the way to ignite the dream is you gotta shut out every single thing.
196
And you gotta believe I am the creator.
197
And so life normally breaks you because when it hits you, you weren't ready.
198
But if you stay ready and you stay plugged up when you hear bad news, it don't break you because you already energized.
199
Today might not be the day, but soon it will be my day and I will recycle my pay
200
When you ain't got nothing left in your tape You gotta think about the people in your life
201
that you're doing this for And then if you can think about them, you can go one more mile You can go one more day at work
202
So the days I'm gonna hit
203
that alarm clock I think about my wife I can't stop
204
I can't give up I can't give in My mama counting
205
on me My wife is counting on me Listen to me I wish I could tell you it's gonna get easier
206
If you just keep going, the weight is gonna get lighter.
207
I wish I could tell you that, but that's not the truth.
208
The truth is, you gotta find something within.
209
You gotta find something within.
210
And that's gotta push you, and that's gotta elevate you, and that's gotta drive you, and that's gotta move you.
211
And when you find your why, you find a way to make it happen.
212
What if you give it everything you have?
213
And you come up short
214
What if you get weak along the way And you're throwing a towel on yourself you surrender
215
To your emotions what then
216
Everybody tripping through something everybody okay who you are you're going through something
217
But your great life is in front of you It's not behind you
218
What you did back there ain't got nothing to do with what God got for you
219
What you did back there was learn the lessons to get you to where you are at this particular moment right here.
220
Maybe being weary Doesn't mean you're weak
221
We're in hell right now
222
and We can stay here get this kicked out of us
223
or We can fight our way back Into the light We can climb out of hell One inch at a time.
224
It's okay to fall.
225
Because when you fall, you get back up.
226
What I need you to do is I need you to find a reason to keep going.
227
And if you can find a reason to keep going, I know you're strong enough to do it because you're human.
228
And every human has what it takes to get past whatever they're going through.
229
If they decide to, push through it.
230
Push through it.
231
Tragedy and trials come to everybody.
232
Only the strong survives.
233
Listen to me very closely.
234
Y'all running from obstacles, when in fact it's the obstacle that's gonna take you to the next level.
235
Like y'all running from pain, y'all running from challenges.
236
You telling me how difficult your life is.
237
Do you understand it is the difficulty that's gonna prepare you and take you to that next level?
238
You ready to quit?
239
You ready to give up?
240
You ready to give in?
241
You ready to tell me what's not working?
242
Who doing this?
243
What's wrong?
244
If you're not ready to get up every day and start all over again like nothing happened yesterday.
245
Phenomenal skill is huge, but it is a phenomenal wheel that says every time I get knocked down,
246
I will get back up and I will succeed.
247
I will not surrender.
248
Why do you keep crying?
249
Why me, God?
250
Why did I get MS?
251
Why did I get cancer?
252
Why did my mama die?
253
Why did I get fired?
254
Listen, you got put through that because what that does, that tension produces greatness.
255
We turn tragedy into triumph.
256
That's what we do for a living.
257
This has been a dogfight, but I've made up in my mind.
258
I will not go through this pain and not get a reward for it.
259
I will not quit.
260
I will not surrender.
261
I will outlast every trial and every tribulation that comes in my life.
262
And sometimes if you're going to be successful, it's not how smart you are, it's not how strong you are, it's how much you can outlast stuff.
263
If you're ready to quit, don't get started.
264
If you're looking for this easy path, don't get started.
265
If you think they're not going to close the door on you and say no a million times, don't get started.
266
But every time they close the door, I just get excited.
267
Why?
268
Because I am not a no. I'm one yes away.
269
You can't keep telling me no forever.
270
You can't keep denying me forever.
271
This type of energy, this type of passion, you can't stop it.
272
I got tired of losing.
273
I got tired of coming up short.
274
I got tired.
275
I got tired of eating out of trash cans.
276
I got tired of watching everybody else graduate.
277
I got tired of seeing people go out first class.
278
I got to go all the way to the back.
279
I got tired.
280
I hate it as much as you hate it.
281
But the problem is I wanted more than you wanted.
282
I got tired of giving 70 and 80% and not living the way I wanted to live.
283
I see other people winning and I'm not winning
284
and I want to be a winner and I'm tired and I got tired y'all.
285
So I did something about it.
286
I woke up every day and started grinding.
287
I was tired.
288
You got to get tired.
289
I'm losing.
290
And what I discovered was that you don't have to be born in a certain family.
291
You don't have to have a certain socioeconomic status.
292
It only takes one thing to get what you see other people have that you want and it's called effort
293
You out of place You don't belong there.
294
You are royal priesthood
295
You don't belong at the bottom
296
and it's time for you to get your butt from down
297
there It's time for you to stop being comfortable at the bottom.
298
Get your butt up and get to where you're supposed to be See life is rough ladies and gentlemen.
299
It's rough Things that's gonna happen to you in life ladies and gentlemen, make it okay.
300
I can't change how I respond to it.
301
I can become upset, nervous, tense about it, weak about it, or I can say it's okay.
302
Don't go through life feeling like you're powerless.
303
Victims are people that are powerless.
304
You're not powerless.
305
You are powerful.
306
You direct the power in your life.
307
Whatever your life is right now, it is a duplication of your consciousness.
308
is a result of how you have decided to use your power.
309
That's all it is.
310
That's not who you are.
311
That's just a perverted use of your power that you aren't satisfied with.
312
And you've got the power to change that.
313
But you don't know what has happened to me.
314
It really doesn't matter what has happened to you.
315
See, the only thing that really matters is what are you going to do about it?
316
That's all that matters.
317
That's all that matters.
318
that no matter what you do to me, how cold and callous you are to me, lack of compassion, lack of sensitivity,
319
how cruel you might be to me, you're not going to change me.
320
There are some things that I went through this year that I didn't like.
321
There are some things that I went through this year that hurt.
322
They hurt like hell.
323
I'm not saying that I would have chosen them if I had had the opportunity.
324
But now that I've been through it, there is something that I learned through, what I went through, that made me who I am.
325
There's a purpose for it.
326
I'm not a hostage.
327
You have to make a decision that every experience is my education.
328
And I'm going to discover the opportunity for me to grow and for me to get better.
329
I'm telling you, I've already made up my mind that I know I will fall down.
330
I know that I will stumble, but I already see myself getting back up.
331
Therefore I'm never down.
332
I'm either up or getting back up.
333
I will learn from this thing.
334
Sometimes a setback is a setup for the greatest blessings of all times.
335
When challenges and issues come back to back to back to back and it seems like something is after me,
336
something is attacking me, Something is attacking my journey.
337
Don't give up.
338
Stay in it.
339
Stay focused.
340
Life is not fair.
341
And that is the reality.
342
Disease and accidents don't care if their victim is a good person.
343
They have no reason, no justification, and no mercy.
344
And you cannot stop it.
345
So, what do you do?
346
Are you going to get angry?
347
Frustrated?
348
Are you gonna lash out at people?
349
Are you gonna start going down the spiral of negativity?
350
Are you gonna let the horrible situation dictate the way you feel and the way you handle it?
351
Are you gonna fall over?
352
Fall down?
353
Fall apart?
354
Or are you going to face this issue with courage and resolution?
355
I say step up.
356
Be the one who people look to absorb the impact and the negativity.
357
It's necessary that you take a stand, that you dig in.
358
It's necessary to know there are going to be some difficult times.
359
I know I'm going to have to take some blows.
360
Find out how strong I am.
361
Can I stand up?
362
I know I'm going to experience some rejection and disappointment.
363
I know there are going to be some hard decisions to make.
364
The things are gonna be so uncertain that I'm gonna feel overwhelmed
365
and feel like I can't handle it I know I know I'm gonna experience all of that.
366
Why?
367
It's necessary.
368
It's a part of life.
369
It's called life How desperate are you for what you want?
370
Do you want it as bad as breathing?
371
Do you want it as bad as anything you've ever wanted in your life?
372
And if you calibrate it at the highest enough levels, what I found is the people that are the hungriest They find a way.
373
When you're desperate, you find reserves and reservoirs of ideas, talents and a strength that you don't know you have when you find yourself in a desperate situation.
374
Even if you get knocked down, you get back up, and you get back up, and you get back up, and you pin your social against the wall.
375
Because you believe in the purpose.
376
You find value in it.
377
That was Michael Jordan.
378
He said, I failed over, and over, and over, and over again I failed.
379
And that's why I succeeded.
380
So I need you to walk out there.
381
No more 50%.
382
No more.
383
No more 50%.
384
No more.
385
No more 70%.
386
No more.
387
I want us at 85 and climbing.
388
If you're at 80, I want you at 90, and I mean moving rapidly.
389
I need you to give me that 120.
390
I need you to give me that everything you do.
391
I need you to start giving me that 120 and everything you do.
392
Bring it all together.
393
Bring all the energy, all the passion.
394
Bring it all together and dominate.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
