Speaker 1 (00:00):
Life is waiting for
you each day and you have to
prepare for each challenge alongthe way towards success.
It's not simple, but it can bedone.
Welcome to my Common SenseMotivation episodes.
I'm Chris Fantastic Powell.
Talkers and dreamers rarelyachieve much, they just sound
important.
(00:20):
You ever met someone who talksa big game?
You ever met someone who talksa big game?
They've got the vision, thepassion, the plan.
They've got the vocabulary tomake it sound amazing.
They dream out loud, paintpictures with their words and
convince everyone, eventhemselves, that success is just
right around the corner.
But here's the truth.
(00:41):
Dreams without discipline arejust distractions.
Talk without action is justnoise.
I've met plenty of people whoare stuck in dreamland.
Year after year, they talkabout what they're going to do.
They say I'm about to startthis, or watch what I'm about to
build, and five years laterthey're still saying the same
(01:02):
thing.
They're intelligent.
They know all the strategies.
They've read all the books,taken the same thing.
They're intelligent.
They know all the strategies.
They've read all the books,taken the courses and watched
the videos.
Ask them what to do next andthey'll give you a master plan
that sounds like it came from aFortune 500 CEO.
But guess what?
They've never gotten off theground.
Why?
Because dreams don't work.
(01:24):
Unless you do, plans don'tbuild momentum.
Movement does.
Being smart isn't enough.
Having talent isn't enough.
Talking about it won't move theneedle.
At some point you have to stopimpressing people with your
potential and start buildingsomething with your effort.
Because real achievers, theydon't talk about what they're
(01:47):
going to do, they show you withresults.
They don't dream out loud, theywork in silence and let success
make the noise.
So if you've been stuck indreamland, it's time to wake up.
Stop fantasizing, stoprehearsing and start moving,
because your dream is waiting,but it's tired of hearing you
(02:08):
talk about it.
It's ready to see if you'llwork for it.
Make it happen.
I'm Chris Fantastic Powell.
