EVERYDAY & CHANGE YOUR LIFE

I found that nothing in life is worth it unless you're taking risks nothing Mandela said there's no passion to be found playing small and settling for a life that's but the one you're capable of living now I'm sure in your experiences in class and applying to school and picking your major and deciding what you would like to try to to with life I'm sure folks that told you to form sure you've got something to fall back on confirm you've something to fall back on honey but I never understood that idea having something to fall back on if I'm getting to fall i do not want to fall back on anything i would like to fall forward I figure a minimum of this manner I'll see what I'm getting to hit without consistency you'll never finish so do what you are feeling hooked in to hooked in to gamble do not be afraid to fail there is a no such as you test was nine dots and you had to draw five lines with a pencil within these nine dots without lifting the pencil the sole thanks to within the hay was to travel outside the box do not be afraid to think outside the box do not be afraid to fail big to dream big but remember dreams without goals my just dreams Reggie Jackson struck out 26 hundred times in his career the foremost in the history of baseball but you do not hear about the strikeouts people remember the homeruns fall forward Edison conducted 1,000 failed experiments did you recognize that I didn't know that because the 1,000 and first was the sunshine bulb fall forward every failed experiment is one step closer to success you've to require risks and i am sure you almost certainly heard that before but i would like to speak to you about why that's important you'll fail at some point in your life accept it you'll lose you'll embarrass yourself you'll suck at something there is no doubt about it and that i know that's probably not a standard message for a graduation ceremony today I'm telling you embrace it because it's inevitable within the acting business you fail all the time early in my career I auditioned for a neighborhood during a Broadway musical perfect role on behalf of me i assumed apart from the very fact that i can not sing I didn't get the work but here's the thing I didn't quit I didn't fall back I walked out of there to organize for subsequent audition and therefore the next audition and therefore the next audition I prayed I prayed and that i prayed but I still fail and fail and fail but it didn't matter because you recognize what there's an old saying you lollygag around the barbershop long enough sooner or later you are going to urge a haircut so you'll catch an opportunity and that i did catch an opportunity last year I did a play called fences on Broadway but here's the kicker he was at the Court Theatre it had been at an equivalent theatre that I failed initially audition 30 years prior the purpose is every graduate here today has the training and therefore the talent to succeed but does one have the center to fail if you do not fail you are not even trying I'll say it again if you do not fail you are not even trying to urge something you never had you've got to try to to something you never did its imagine you're on your deathbed and standing around your deathbed are the ghosts representing your unfulfilled potential the ghosts of the ideas you never acted on the ghosts of the skills you didn't use and they are standing around your bed angry disappointed and upset they assert we came to you because you'll have brought us to life they assert and now we've to travel to the grave together so I ask you today what percentage ghosts are getting to be around your bed when some time comes I just came from South Africa's beautiful country but there are places there with terrible parvat poverty that require help when Africa's just the tip of the iceberg the center East needs your help Japan needs your help Alabama needs your help Tennessee needs your help Louisiana needs your help Philadelphia needs your help the planet needs tons and that we need it from you we actually can we need it from you children I mean I'm not speaking for the remainder folks over here but i do know I'm getting a touch grayer we would have liked from you the children because remember this but you bought to urge out there you bought to offer it everything you bought whether it is your time your you’re your talent your prayers or your treasures what are you getting to do with what you've got I'm not talking about what proportion you've got a number of you're business majors a number of you're theologians nurses sociologists a number of you've got money a number of you've got patients a number of you've got kindness a number of you've got loved a number of you've got a present of long-suffering whatever it's whatever your gift is what are you getting to do with what you've got alright now here's my last point about failure sometimes it is the best thanks to find out where you are going your life will never be a straight path i started at Fordham University as a pre-med student I took a course called that cardiac morphogenesis i could not read it i could not say it that sure couldn't pass it so then i made a decision to travel into pre-law then journalism and with no academic focus my grades took off in their own direction i used to be a 1.8 GPA and therefore the university very politely suggested that it'd be better to require a while off i used to be 20 years old i used to be at my lowest point then within the future">at some point and that i remember the precise day March 27 1975 i used to be helping my mother and her salon my mother owned a salon up in my Vernon and there is there was this older woman who was considered one among the elders within the town and that i didn't know her personally but i used to be looking within the mirror and each time I looked through the mirror I could see her behind me and she or he was watching him she just kept watching me whenever I checked out it she kept giving me these strange looks so she finally took the dryer off her head and says to some she said something I'll always remember she said young boy I even have a prophecy a spiritual prophecy she said you're getting to travel the planet and speak to many people and in the years that follow even as that woman prophesize I even have traveled the planet and that i have spoken as demands of individuals through my movies millions who up til today and age">today couldn't see me I aroused till this day i could not see while i used to be lecture them and that they couldn't see me that only see the movie it couldn't see the important me but I see you today and i am encouraged by what I see and i am strengthened by what I see because taking risk isn't almost going for employment it is also about knowing what you recognize and what you do not know it's about being hospitable people and to ideas the probabilities you're taking the people you meet the people you're keen on the religion that you simply have that's what is going on to define you never be discouraged never twiddling my thumbs give everything you've and once you fall flat out light remember this fall forward.
