YOU CAN DO IT – One of the Best Motivational Videos Ever Created for Students, Success & Studying
Transcripts of the Video:
00:00
all right listen and listen well because
00:02
no truer words are ever gonna be spoken
00:07
you can do anything you want without
00:10
limitation whatever it is that you
00:13
decide you want to make come true in
00:14
your life you can do that it is gonna
00:17
take an inhuman amount of work you’re
00:19
gonna have to be prepared to break
00:20
yourself in half you are going to have
00:22
to learn more than anyone has ever
00:23
learned you’re gonna have to push
00:24
yourself harder than anyone has ever
00:25
asked you to push yourself before you’re
00:27
gonna go way beyond your breaking point
00:29
you’re gonna run until you vomit you’re
00:31
gonna study until you fall asleep you’re
00:33
going to push and push and push and then
00:36
you’re gonna push some more and when you
00:38
hit the limit you’re gonna push again
00:39
beyond that you’re gonna force yourself
00:41
to an adaptation response and why
00:45
because it’s Malcolm X said the future
00:48
belongs to those who prepare for it
00:50
today so if you don’t put the work in
00:53
today if you don’t do the unending
00:58
back-breaking work of developing
01:01
yourself into something greater the
01:03
world is gonna pass you by the people
01:05
that are going to own it are gonna be
01:06
the ones that did that work and the one
01:08
promise that I can make you right now is
01:11
that somebody somebody out there is out
01:14
working somebody right now is doing the
01:18
things that I’m saying somebody right
01:20
now is doing the work of failing and
01:24
getting up and getting better and
01:27
pushing themselves and triggering that
01:29
glorious adaptation response that makes
01:32
humans the apex predator someone right
01:34
now they’re putting in that work
01:37
and if you don’t the future is gonna
01:40
belong to them and as Martin Luther King
01:43
jr. said you can’t fly than one if you
01:48
can’t run then walk if you can’t walk
01:50
then crawl but whatever you do you have
01:53
to keep moving forward it’s not okay to
01:58
make excuses it’s not gonna slow people
02:00
down it’s not okay to ask the world to
02:03
stop so that you can step out front it’s
02:05
not okay to expect little of yourself
02:07
and demand great rewards the only thing
02:11
that’s okay is to be in line with the
02:14
way that the world really works and if
02:16
you want to be great you’ve got to
02:17
become capable of greatness you’ve got
02:19
to develop your skill set you’ve got to
02:22
take what you have now and if that’s
02:24
crawling then you crawl but you drag
02:27
yourself ever forward to a vision of
02:29
yourself that is so clear and so
02:32
specific that nothing could knock you
02:34
off your path because you my friends
02:37
know
02:37
exactly where you’re going you’re
02:38
willing to pay whatever price it takes
02:41
to get there and no matter what anybody
02:42
says no matter how many hecklers come
02:44
for you no matter how many people try to
02:47
throw dirt on you try to stop you try to
02:48
knock you down no matter how many do
02:51
people come for you at night while you
02:53
sleep we will rise and you will keep
02:56
pushing forward and you will get better
02:57
every day
02:58
and no matter how many times people chop
03:00
at you knock you down knock you up the
03:02
path weasel get back on you will crawl
03:05
so you can walk you will walk till you
03:06
run and then you will run until you fly
03:08
and death my friends is the only path
03:11
forward so if you want a future that
03:13
makes you happy if you want to warm that
03:15
you’re excited about get your ass out
03:17
there and earn it
03:21
give me the book back take the book I
03:24
brush my chicken we should kind of leave
03:26
Justin Justin what did you do how does
03:29
yeah ah what is she doing I’ll just play
03:33
hi here he was not play about I was free
03:38

03:40

03:46
have stayed at school bro man got you
03:47
education man can t mess with you man he
03:50
right here robbing people man cool off
03:52
stupid like oh yeah
03:56
as Derek Jeter said there may be people
04:01
who have more talent than you but
04:04
there’s no excuse for anyone to work
04:07
harder than you do at the end of the day
04:10
whether you believe in talent or not is
04:11
completely irrelevant
04:14
everyone should believe in hard work
04:16
everything in your life is literally a
04:19
result of that you’re born an infant a
04:21
lump of flesh that can’t even hold its
04:23
own head up and yet somehow by
04:26
practicing by learning by growing you’re
04:28
able to get better you’re literally
04:31
incapable of anything when you’re born
04:33
every skill that you have in your life
04:36
all the things that you take for granted
04:37
at one point you couldn’t do them so
04:40
understanding that humans truly are an
04:42
adaptation machine and that they are a
04:43
capable of acquiring any skill that they
04:46
want but it requires hard work it
04:48
requires that you do the reps it
04:50
requires that you put in the effort and
04:55
at the end of the day the people that
04:57
you’re going to surpass are not going to
04:58
be the people that have less talent than
04:59
you maybe they even have more talent
05:01
than you it’s going to be the people
05:02
that you’re willing to outwork but until
05:05
you’re willing to outwork them you’re
05:08
always going to be stuck this John
05:10
Irving said to do anything really well
05:13
you have to overextend yourself and
05:14
that’s the key if you want to put in an
05:17
extraordinary performance if you want to
05:18
absolutely dazzle people then you have
05:24
to do something amazing
05:25
you have to be willing to put yourself
05:27
out there you have to be willing to do
05:29
things that other people think are gonna
05:30
break you that other people simply
05:32
believe there’s no way that you could be
05:34
able to pull that off that the human
05:36
animal just is not capable of the links
05:38
to which you are professing to go and
05:40
when you profess it you have to be
05:42
willing to back it up and you have to
05:43
put yourself on that March knowing in no
05:46
uncertain terms under no circumstances
05:48
and for no reason whatsoever would you
05:50
ever be willing to back down and when
05:55
you go in with that level of certainty
05:57
then and only then are you actually
05:59
going to be able to pull this off and
06:01
this Billie Jean King said champions
06:05
keep playing until they get it right
06:09
fatigue will literally chip away at your
06:13
will to win it is the thing inside of
06:15
your mind that weak voice that tells you
06:18
that you’re not going to be able to make
06:19
it the weak voice that begs you to stop
06:23
and the weak voice that promises safety
06:27
and security if you would just quit and
06:32
here’s the worst part about that it’s
06:35
right
06:35
if you quit right now if you stop just
06:39
sit down relax you’re not at risk
06:42
anymore you’re not a risk of
06:43
embarrassment you’re not a risk of
06:45
failure but you’re also not a risk of
06:47
greatness
06:49
and if you really want to achieve
06:50
something you’ve gotta find ways to put
06:53
yourself at risk of something great
06:55
happening you’ve got to put yourself at
06:57
risk of overextending yourself you’ve
06:59
got to be willing to face that you may
07:01
die that you may actually fall and
07:04
here’s the thing for the people that
07:05
dismiss that that say they would never
07:07
put themselves in that situation then
07:09
you have limits and make no mistake
07:12
those limits are self placed and for the
07:14
people that are willing to push that for
07:16
people that are willing to go beyond
07:17
that for people who understand there are
07:19
things in this world that they’re
07:21
prepared to die for and it is the thing
07:23
that they put at the center of their
07:24
life it is the thing that they are
07:26
living for but they’re not gonna stop
07:28
and they understand that we’re the human
07:29
mind thinks it will break is far short
07:32
of where it will actually break but
07:36
before you can find that point you’ve
07:38
got to be willing to push yourself
07:39
you’ve got to be willing to go harder
07:41
and farther than anybody thinks is
07:43
reasonable or sensible that’s the path
07:47
and so the question is can you be
07:49
thought a fool the question is do you
07:50
believe in something so much that you
07:51
would put yourself at risk like that the
07:53
question is can you face down everyone
07:57
including the weak voice inside of your
08:00
own mind to make the world come true
08:03
that you want to see come true because
08:06
at the end of the day nobody’s gonna do
08:08
it for you so if you’re a champion keep
08:12
going until it’s
08:16
as Nelson Mandela said education is the
08:22
most powerful weapon you can use to
08:25
change the world wherever you are right
08:30
now listening to this I want you to burn
08:32
that into your mind the most powerful
08:35
weapon that you’re going to have at your
08:36
disposal isn’t a gun it isn’t a sword it
08:39
isn’t a bomb the most powerful weapon
08:42
you will ever have at your disposal if
08:44
you really want to make change is
08:46
knowledge it doesn’t mean going to
08:49
school it can be school it can be books
08:51
it can be a mentor it can be somebody
08:54
else’s failure it can be your own
08:56
failure but whatever it is to always be
09:00
learning to be learning something today
09:02
knowing that that’s an investment and as
09:04
Robert Louis Stevenson said don’t judge
09:07
each day by the harvest you reap but
09:11
rather by the seeds you plant and that’s
09:14
what knowledge is that’s what the
09:15
learning process is is you’re learning
09:17
something today that you may not even
09:18
understand how it’s going to be valuable
09:20
a one day
09:23
that piece of knowledge is gonna come to
09:25
your aid one day that thing that you
09:28
learned is going to be something that
09:29
you’re gonna lean on one day that thing
09:31
that you’ve worked your ass off to
09:34
understand better than anybody else in
09:36
the world it’s going to help you change
09:39
the world but you have to be doing it
09:43
now you have to be learning with an
09:45
obsession you have to understand that
09:47
ideas inequal ideas out and that you
09:49
have to chase that knowledge down that
09:51
it is a relentless pursuit and that like
09:54
you would build an armada like you would
09:57
create a stock pile of weapons you must
10:00
create a stockpile of knowledge you must
10:02
learn and learn and learn and you must
10:05
hold yourself accountable every day
10:07
defending those seeds to getting better
10:08
to learning more to understanding things
10:10
more broadly when you do that
10:13
we’ll be nothing that won’t be unlocked
10:15
to you that’s what I want you guys to
10:18
understand it doesn’t matter
10:20
matter where you started your
10:22
circumstances the money the people that
10:24
you know none of it matters what matters
10:27
is how much he’s willing to learn how
10:29
good are you willing to get how much
10:31
knowledge are you willing to soak in
10:34
because that will become your weapon
10:37
that will be how you rise up and that
10:40
would be the thing that will protect you
10:42
when you need it most
10:46
[Music]
10:51

11:12
incredible tomorrow learn today
