“The promise is clear.”
“You gotta count on yourself.”
“The price is easy, if the promise is clear and powerful. But the price seems almost too much to pay, too much to get over, too much to accomplish, if the promise isn’t clear, if the promise isn’t powerful. I’m telling you, kids will pay the disciplines, if they can see the promise. All of the stuff kids would hope to go for. It’s all possible. That’s the promise of the future. The price? A few simple disciplines practiced every day. And I’m telling you, the kids will pay the price of the simple disciplines, if they can see the promise of the future. But if they can’t see, they don’t want to pay. We will pay the most extraordinary disciplines if we can see the promise of the future, called setting goals. So I’m asking you to get a handle on the future. I’m asking you not to leave it to anyone else. Don’t leave it to the company, companies got their own goals. I’m asking you to set your own goals, your personal goals, income goals, and financial goals, and health goals, and spiritual goals! Where do you want to go? And what do you want to do? And what do you want to see? And what do you want to be? That’s it, the promise of the future. Design your own future.”
