Never Give Up (Motivational Speech)

Remember the time

When you wanted more

Remember the time

When there were people in your life that did not believe in you

Remember the time when you

Honestly gave up on the possibilities

Of the uniqueness that you had inside

Remember there was a time that you complained so much

But yet did so little

There comes to a point in your life

That you must recognize that there is a little bit more

That has to be done

Than just complaining about it

You have to realize

That you don't have any other opportunities waiting for you

If you're not willing to work for the first opportunity

That's been given to you

You don't have a lot of time left

So there's no reason to complain

You're not even in the position to complain

You have to figure out that there has to be another idea about you

And you have to understand that there has to be something

Even greater and more challenging waiting for you

And if you're not willing to step outside of your comfort zone

If you're not willing to understand

The principles and the possibilities that you have within yourself

Then everything that you are thriving for

Everything that you are hungry for

Will soon come to an end

Now I'm not here to preach to you about this

I'm here to let you know that there are things

That are going on around you right now

That are far greater that your complaining

You complaining about so much

But yet you show no action

If you could trade places with someone right now

And the person that you are trading places with

May have it a little bit tougher

Than you have it going on in your life right now

So many people are suffering from so many things

In this world at this moment

But yet you're complaining

So many people in this world right now

Wish they could trade places with you

But yet you're still complaining

You don't have that right to just give up

You don't have that right to just throw in the towel

And say that it's over for you

Ladies and gentlemen, you've got to understand

That the reason that you are existing in this world right now

Is because you have things that must be done

And only certain people are qualified

To take it to the level that it needs to be taken to

For there should never be a limitation

To wherever it is that you are seeking

And how far you are willing to travel

And how far you are willing to go

Sometimes people tend to get a little lazy

Sometimes people like to put themselves in this little bitty box

And just say that they're okay with where they are

There can never just be an okay to anything

When it comes to that life

There should never just be a complacent mindset

How do we evolve?

How do you evolve?

How do you grow?

One thing about success

There are going to be many struggles

There are going to be many challenges

And there are going to be a lot of things

That you may not even understand

But you've got to go back to where it started

Remember when you wanted more

Because you cannot satisfy your hunger with negative energy

Being negative doesn't help you to grow

Being doubtful doesn't give you the power that you need

You have to come to a point in your life

That you must realize

That there are things that are going on

That is testing you

And maybe you may be in a position where you feel that you are broken

Or you're feeling that you are going to be broken

But I'm here to let you know, ladies and gentlemen

That you are build to last

I'm here to let you know

That you don't have the right to complain anymore

I'm here to let you know

That you've got to keep on living and living on strong

I dare you to take a trip to your local hospital

And you have an opportunity to walk down those corridors

And witness so many different people

Different age groups, different ethnicities

And each one of these individuals are fighting something

They're dealing with some type of sickness

And some of these sicknesses they may not be able to recover from

I dare you to walk down a neighborhood

Where there are many people that are homeless

And have no place to go, no food to eat

Barely even have clothes on their bags

I dare you to realize

That maybe you just don't have it so bad after all

Maybe it's time for you to realize

And recognize that your troubles are not that bad

Maybe it's time that you realize

That you need to get away from the drama that's in your life

Maybe it's time for you to stop chasing misery

And start chasing your dreams

Reconnect with yourself

Because this is not the time for you to be wasted

Putting yourself back

Instead of pushing yourself forward

Ladies and gentlemen

You have so much, so much to offer

So much to give, so much to do

But doing it and sitting around waiting for it to happen

It's just gonna stay in neutral

You have to electrify the desire that you have

That you once had

So the next time you feel like complaining

You feel like worrying

And you're so concerned about other things

That doesn't necessarily concern you

Ask yourself

Is it making you better?

Is it taking you higher?

Are you going further?

Or you just being complacent?

Complacent and complaining and worry

And doing thing that are not better for you

Or you gonna realize that maybe just going up that mountain

Does take a little bit more work

Than just having something handed to you

Or you gonna be that person that realized that if

And when you get to the top of the mountain

It don't just stop there

You got to figure out another way to go even higher

You have to electrify and get all the things

That are necessary within you to start

Doing the things that you need to do

So when the time comes

You can kick down that door

And move towards the possibilities

Of being the best of who you really are

Don't lose yourself

And the things that's not going to give you the strength

And the capacity of understanding that you matter for something

Don't lose yourself and fear

Don't lose yourself in doubt

Dare yourself to be better

Dare yourself to be unique

Dare yourself to be the best possibility

That the world has yet to see
