DREAM BIG

I tracked down that nothing throughout everyday life

is beneficial

except if you face challenges

nothing

nelson mandela said there is no energy

to be found

playing little

in making due with a life that is less

than the one you're fit for living

presently i'm certain in your encounters in

school and applying to school and

picking your major and choosing what you

maintain that should do with life i'm certain individuals

have advised you to ensure you have

something to return to ensure you

got something to return to honey

however, I never grasped that idea

having something to return to

assuming that i will fall

I would rather not return to anything

I need to fall forward

I figure basically this way i'll see what

i will hit

without consistency

you won't ever wrap up

so do what you have an enthusiastic outlook on

enthusiastic about

take risks

make it a point to bomb there's an old

level of intelligence test was nine dabs

furthermore, you needed to define five boundaries with a

pencil inside these nine spots

without lifting the pencil

the best way to do it was to head outside

the case

try not to be hesitant to

break new ground don't be reluctant to

come up short

large

to dream

large yet recollect

dreams

without objectives

are simply dreams

reggie jackson struck out multiple times in

his profession the most

throughout the entire existence of baseball however you don't

catch wind of the strikeouts individuals

recollect the homers

fall forward

thomas edison led 1 000 fizzled

tests did you had any idea that I didn't

know that

since the 1,000 and first was

the light

fall forward

each bombed test is one stage

nearer to progress

got to face challenges and i'm certain you've

likely heard that previously yet I need to

converse with you about why that is so

significant

you will flop eventually in your life

it you will lose

you will humiliate yourself

you will suck at something there's no

uncertainty about it

what's more, I know that is likely not a

customary directive for a graduation

service yet hello

i'm letting you know embrace it since it's

inescapable

in the acting industry you bomb all the

time right off the bat in my profession

I tried out for a section in a broadway

melodic

ideal job for me I thought

aside from the way that I can't sing

I didn't land the position

in any case, listen to this

I didn't stop

I didn't fall back

I left there to plan for the

next tryout and the following tryout and

the following tryout

I supplicated

I supplicated

also, I asked

however, I kept on fizzling

also, fizzle

also, bomb yet it didn't make any difference in light of the fact that

guess what

there's a well-known axiom you stick around

the hairstyling salon long enough sooner or

later you will get a hair style

so you will get a break and I did

get a break

last year

I did a play called walls on broadway

be that as it may, here's the kicker

it was at the court theater

it was at a similar theater

that I bombed that first tryout

30 years earlier

the fact is each alumni here today

has the preparation and the ability to

succeed

be that as it may, do you have the guts

to come up short

in the event that you don't fall flat

you're not in any event, attempting

i'll say it once more in the event that you don't come up short

you're not in any event, attempting

to get something you never had you have

to accomplish something you won't ever do

envision you're on your deathbed

what's more, waiting around your deathbed

are the phantoms addressing your

unfulfilled potential

the phantom of the thoughts you won't ever act

on

the phantom of the gifts you didn't utilize

what's more, they're waiting around your bed

irate

disheartened

what's more, steamed

they say we came to you since you

might have rejuvenated us they say

also, presently we need to go to the grave

together

so I ask you today

the number of apparitions that will be near

your bed when your opportunity arrives

I just returned from south africa it's a

wonderful country

yet, there are places there with horrible

confidential destitution that need assistance

also, africa is only the tip of the

chunk of ice the center east necessities your assistance

japan needs your assistance alabama needs your

help tennessee requirements your assistance louisiana

needs your assistance philadelphia needs your

help

the world requirements a ton and we want it

from you

we truly do we really want it from you youthful

individuals I mean i'm not representing the

rest of us up here however I know i'm

getting a little grayer

we really want it from you the youngsters

since recall this

you got to get out there

you got to give it all that you got

whether it's your time

your your ability

your requests

or then again your fortunes

how are you going to manage what you

have i'm not discussing the amount you

have

some of you are business majors some of

you are scholars attendants sociologists

some of you have cash some of you have

tolerance some of you have consideration some

of you have adored some of you have the

endowment of lenient anything that it is

anything that your gift is

what are you going to do

with what you have

OK currently here's my last point about

disappointment

in some cases

it's the most ideal way

to sort out where you're going

your life won't ever be a straight way

I started at fordham college as a

pre-drug understudy

I took a course called the

cardiovascular morphogenesis I was unable to understand it

I was unable to say it I certainly couldn't pass

it

so then, at that point, I chose to go into pre-regulation

then, at that point, reporting and with no intellectual

center my grades took off in their own

course

I was a 1.8 gpa

what's more, the college respectfully

recommended that it very well may be smarter to

get some much needed rest

I was 20 years of age I was at my least

point

and afterward one day and I recollect the

definite day walk 27 1975 I was helping my

mother in her excellence shop my mom

claimed a marvel shop up in mount vernon

furthermore's, there was this more seasoned lady

who was viewed as one of the elderly folks in

the town and I didn't have any acquaintance with her

by and by yet I was thoroughly searching in the

reflect and each time I thoroughly searched in the

reflect I could see her behind me and she

was gazing at me

she recently continued to check out at me each time I

taken a gander at her she continued to give me these

abnormal looks

so she at last took the dryer off her

head and said

she said something i will always remember

she said young man

I have a prediction a profound prescience

she said you will venture to every part of the

world

also, address a great many individuals

also, in the years that follow similarly as

that lady forecasts I have voyaged

the world and I have addressed millions

of individuals through my films

millions who up until this day

couldn't see me

who up till this day I was unable to see

while I was conversing with them and they

couldn't see me they could see the

film

they couldn't see the genuine me

be that as it may, I see youth today

also, i'm empowered by what I see

i'm fortified

by what I see

since facing challenge isn't just about

going for a task

it's additionally about understanding what you know

furthermore, what you don't have any idea

it's tied in with being available to individuals

what's more, to thoughts

the possibilities you take

individuals you meet

your loved ones

the confidence that you have

that will characterize you

never be deterred

never keep down

give all that you got

furthermore, when you fall over the course of life

recollect this

fall forward
