Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, guys, here we are our last break of
the day on this Monday. It's been a good day,
so is deal.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Guys. My closing remarks are in light of encouragement. You know,
I just I can't tell you all how important it
is to never give up. I can't tell you how
important it is to put forth max effort, the importance
of starting for not being procrastinator. It's just so important

(00:36):
that you give it your all every day you wake up.
That's what I'm trying to get people to understand. To
give it your all every day you wake up. Waking
up is a gift. You can do something with that gift.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
You can take every.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Day to move closer to a gold ambition or a dream.
You can every day to better yourself. You can use
the time in each day to better your situation instead
of taking a negative approach or I don't know what's
gonna happen. I want you got to do something. You know,
people talk about a lot of losses I've had in

(01:17):
my life and career. You know people, you know, trolls
is out there. Oh I can't. Oh he got this counsel.
All this happened to him. I can't believe he gave
that crown to the wrong one. He said this. I
can't believe he went up there and saw so and
so he do this, he do that. I've heard that
my entire career, and I have learned the older I get,

(01:41):
I've learned some things, and you know what I've learned, y'all.
I would rather fight and lose that to just give up.
I would rather try and fail at something than to quit.

(02:03):
I would rather lose and not win than to never
have played the game. And for all the haters out there,
I don't care. You're not even in the arena. You're
not even actually involved. You're a bystander. And you know

(02:26):
what that simply breaks down to your standing by and
ain't neither one of them productive? You standing, you ain't moving?
You buy that mean you're on the sideline. I would
rather fight lose than to quit. I would rather try

(02:48):
and fail than to give up. I would rather lose
and not win than to never have played the game.
Do you understand something, man? You waking up every day
putting forth a maximum effort. That is a benefit to
be in your maximum effort zone. Do you know when
you wake up and you put forth a maximum effort

(03:09):
that it produces growth. When you put forth a maxi effort,
it produces experience, And when you put forth a maxive effort,
it produces results. Yeah, but you fail though, Oh that's

(03:31):
true for guess what happened while I was failing. I
was growing, I was gaining experience. I was seeing some results.
So now when I go and I fight again, I'll
get closer to the wind. If I try again, I'll
get closer to the success. I'm always trying to win,

(03:54):
even when it looks like I'm losing. Losing is a
part of it. Man made one person that's successful that
has not lost. You know how many people won championships
that came off the heels of a severe indimence. Do
you know people who win comeback Player of the year. Oh,

(04:15):
the only way you can win and come back player
of the years and you make a comeback people. I
can't believe they gave him comeback Player of the year.
You haven't played or came back. He did both. That's
how he got Comeback Player of the Year. Here he
goes gonna try something else. I guess we'll see how
long that would last. Your dog gone right, I'm gonna

(04:38):
try something else, because if you don't try nothing else,
you can't get no benefit from it. You can't get
nothing unless you put forth the effort. You can't get results,
you can't get growth, you can't gain no experience, and
that is no chance of you winning. I'm gonna take

(04:58):
a chance to see if I and win. I promise
you that, make them watch you see listen to me, y'all.
You know the reason they talking about y'all is because
you keep doing something. If you don't want nobody to
talk about you, go sit down somewhere and be nothing.
You nothing to write about. They no hater's got nothing

(05:20):
to talk about. The headlines ain't got nothing to talk about.
The blogs ain't got nothing to talk about. The news
channels ain't got nothing to talk about. Go over there
and sit down and be nothing. But man, I make
them watch me. I make them have to see what
God can do for me. I'm a living witness that
God can do anything. I'm a living witness that when

(05:42):
one door closes, all you got to do is walk
up the hall. But you can't walk up the hall
unless you make the effort to go up the hall.
A lot of people ain't even in the hall. They
just sat down and look down there talking about this
dog down there, which one of them dogs is mine?
Why don't you go down there? See they always going
through doors getting something. You ain't even in the hall.

(06:03):
Start walking up the hall. Man put forth in there
for y'all, And don't be discouraged when you don't win,
because I'd rather fight and lose than to give up.
I'd rather failed and tried and to quit, and I'd
rather lose and not win that have never played the game.
That I'll give you something to write a lot over
my clothing remark enjoy yourself to say God loud, you

(06:24):
God want. We'll see y'all in the mall. How to
at you.
