Your Dream Is The Most Thing In World
Education is not the most important thing in your life. I'm sorry, it's not your dream. The most important thing in this world is your education without dreams and visions. People perish. You've got to have something to strive for that inspires the heart and the soul.
Your dreams dwarf your education. Your dreams can spur you to get the education you need. If you've got a kid that wants to be an aeroplane pilot, you can quit talking to him about education and start talking to him about being a pilot. Tell him how great it is that he'll be able to fly. Put that in his head, and he'll do math, engineering, and science because he wants to be a pilot.
It's the dream that's the biggest thing. People are so normal to be experts; just go one inch abnormal and they think you're great, so don't judge your success by what the masses think of you. Judge yourself by what God tells you to do. You can make it without an education. You have got to dream of something so big that it dwarfs all your fears.
The way you overcome fear is with your dreams. You've got to make your dreams so big that nothing matters except that dream. You're willing to do everything that's necessary. You've got to keep dreaming. If a better future is a dream for yourself and your family,
where do you want to go?
What do you want to do?
What do you want to be?
What do you want to see?
The best things in life are on the other side of fear. They are the opposite of terrified. The fear of failure paralyses people. "Suppose I don't do it." Well, you might not make it, but I have some good news for you. You don't do it, you damn sure aren't going to make it.
Do you want me to tell you it's okay to give up?
You want me to tell you it's okay to surrender?
They may not give it to you, but what I'm telling you is that I did it with my mind and my heart. I started with my mind and my heart. We're here. I started with my mind and my heart.
Have you got a mind?
You've got a heart. Stop making excuses. Stop waiting for somebody to feel sorry for you. Yes, it's going to be hard, yes it's going to be difficult, but you can do it. I don't care where you are, use what you've got to get what you want. Use your mind, use your vision, use your dreams.
I dreamed my way out of the hood. I dreamed my way out, and then I saw it, and then I would get up every day and I would grind hard. I would grind my way through it. I will not be defeated. My goals will not be defeated. My dreams will not be defeated. I will not be destroyed. I will defend what's rightfully mine. These are my dreams. This is my life.
You are right, one thing is to have a dream but another thing is to chase your drean
