You've gotta wake up early
I don't mean just on weekdays, I mean every day
You've gotta value work, more than you value sleep
Changing your behaviours, overcoming negative habits
It's challenging
It's hard
Very few people are willing to endure the pain
and sacrifice, of what it takes to be great
They settle for average
Average is dangerous
Average is for the weak
Some of you are lying to yourself
You say you wanna be great
You say you wanna get to the next level
You say you wanna be the best in your class
or the best in your school, you wanna do great things
but your actions don't match your words
There are those of you with phones
and with every new phone that comes out you get it
every upgrade you get it
every piece of software you get it
You're upgrade your technology but you're not upgrading yourself
You've gotta invest in yourself, don't let yourself be average
the average waste their lives away every weekend for what?
Not me! I'm in charge of my own life
Everything in my own life
that I'm not happy with if my own fault
I take responsibility
You will never hear me complain about my circumstances
as the reason why I'm not where I want to be
If I don't like where I am
I'll work harder
I am a perfect reflection of the hard work
or lack of work I put in
Your commitment and obsession should always be
to be better today than you were yesterday
When you look at the lives of the greatest men and women the world has produced
one thing is common among them all
You see relentless, sickening work ethic!
To get to the top, you have to skip hanging out with friends
watching TV, and wasting your time on meaningless things
Great students marry their books
they hustle for knowledge, just as billionaires
hustle for opportunities
While others are sleeping
they're working
while others are playing video games
they're learning
when others are out drinking and doing other things that don't count
they're studying
Learn from them
Follow in their footsteps
Stand on the shoulders of giants. Get a head start
Go grab your books, go to the library
and start exploring the world
My mother told me that readers are leaders
and that has proved itself today
If you go through life just trying to stay comfortable
life will send you more and more discomfort
You'll get more and more problems
Life will keep trying to drag you down
and because more people are so concerned about
staying comfortable instead of growing
and reaching higher because they don't want to move beyond their limitations
they keep struggling
Do you think Bill Gates started Microsoft
feeling comfortable about it?
Do you think Usain Bolt
slept his way to becoming the fastest man?
Do you think Will Smith
procrastinated his way to the top?
Of course not!
They worked.
If you think that things are going to fall into place magically
If you think you will do it later
If you keep procrastinating
If you're waiting for that perfect time
You are deceiving yourself
You have to create that perfect time
When are you going to stand up and start hustling?
I have met students who are lazy
Students that bask in that euphoria that
everything is going to be okay in the end
students who do nothing to change things
Students that only dream
Students that have only wishes
This time
You're going to tell your teachers
your classmates
that here I come!
I have come to win
to excel, to look down on my weaknesses
and make them my strengths
Turn off the phone, the TV
and the laptop
I'm heading to the library
You are heading for success
You are heading for greatness
It's in your hands
How much more time are you willing to waste?
How much more time are you willing to burn?
Wake up!
WAKE UP!
If you have to make sacrifices
to be where you want to be
so be it
If you have to tell your friends you can't go out drinking with them anymore, so be it.
You are not average
Do you want to see average?
Look out the window
Everyone you see
They're average
Not you
That's not you!
