1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Go small with your goals. Seventy five percent of people

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,440
Speaker 1: make at least one resolution a year, but a new

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 1: survey found that respondents would rather kick off their goals

4
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: gradually than jump in head first. Almost half of those

5
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 1: surveyed also said they'd rather concentrate on long term goals,

6
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 1: with twenty seven percent saying they wanted to focus on

7
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 1: short term ones. So, Steve, you're a motivational speaker, you

8
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 1: motivate people all the time. What do you think should

9
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: people continue to make big resolutions at the first of

10
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,280
Speaker 1: the year or should they go small with their goals?

11
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 2: I disagree with that one thousand percent. I don't understand.

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: There's no winning in small. There's no winning in small.

13
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 2: I mean, look, what they're trying to say is but

14
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 2: everything they're saying is preparing you for failure. It's assuming

15
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: that ain't no need of you thinking big because you

16
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 2: ain't gonna get big. That right, there is a negative

17
00:00:55,160 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 2: connotation to me. You know, remember this, aim for the moon.

18
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 2: In case you miss, you'll still be amongst the stars.

19
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,199
Speaker 2: But if you aiming for the fire hydrant and you miss,

20
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 2: you down in the damn dirt. See, that's the problem

21
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: with people passing out advice to people. I'm just against

22
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: small thinking because it costs you no more to think

23
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 2: big than it does to think small. If you say

24
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 2: Volkswagon and Rose Royce, it don't take no more energy.

25
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 3: It's Volkswagon is Rose Royce.

26
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 2: Man, y'all, don't let people convince you to take the

27
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 2: small approach, because then all you can ever get is

28
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 2: small results. I'm just not a proponent of now. What

29
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 2: they're trying to say is, don't disappoint yourself. Go to

30
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: it and you don't get iteation because it's just so high.

31
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 2: Back to me, I don't. I just don't like you

32
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 2: manage your expectations. See now, look, either you don't be

33
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 2: a person of faith or you ain't.

34
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: Give people advice though how to think big and how

35
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: to not be not to hold themselves back with that

36
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: type of thinking.

37
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 3: If you've never.

38
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: Okay, here's set that kind of goal for yourself.

39
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.

40
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 2: Here's here's a deal. Here's something I learned, and I

41
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:29,359
Speaker 2: taught this to myself. It is impossible to think an

42
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: impossible thought.

43
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 3: That's not possible.

44
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 2: It is possible to think an impossible thought.

45
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 3: Well, okay, okay, then how did you think it? Though?

46
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 2: If it's impossible, how did you think it? And that's

47
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 2: what you've got to incorporate into your thinking. Man, it

48
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 2: is impossible to think about you tell somebody man, I

49
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 2: had this crazy idea.

50
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 3: Man, I don't see how.

51
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: I know you don't see how, but I'm telling you

52
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 2: I saw it. And that's how imagination is given to you.

53
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 2: And what we don't realize as people is that our

54
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 2: imagination is given to us by God. God places what

55
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 2: he has for you in your imagination. Albert Einstein once said,

56
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: imagination is everything. It's the preview to life's coming attractions.

57
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 2: That's just a fact. So what God does is he

58
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 2: places the life he has for.

59
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 3: You in your imagination.

60
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: The problem we have is we tell our imagination to

61
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 2: the wrong people, because if you want to kill a

62
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 2: big dream, tell it to a small minded person.

63
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 3: And all of us have done that.

64
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: God has shown us something incredible in our imagination. We

65
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 2: took it to our friends and loved ones and they

66
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 2: shot it down. I don't see how you gonna do that. Well,

67
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: I know you don't see it because God didn't show

68
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: it to you. He showed it to me. And I'm

69
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 2: gonna trust on that fact right there. If I thought small,

70
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 2: there's no way I get here today. All you got

71
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 2: to do is start thinking big. Does a book I

72
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 2: recommend to everybody by David Schwartz David Schultz, The Magic

73
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: of Thinking Big. Go buy that book. It's all written off.

74
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 2: All self help books have written off concepts of the Bible. Anyway,

75
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 2: A man is as he thinks. If you think you're small,

76
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 2: you're fit to be small.

77
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: I love it all right, Thank you. You are a

78
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:31,760
