Its 3 in the morning and I got up bz i couldn't sleep thinking abt all the problems I have....But watching video, motivated me so much that i started believing that i can take any difficulty in my way.Thanks from bottom of my heart :-)
it started as the greatest common denominator and by the time the video ends he's talking about the lowest common denominater, sounds like it's all my fault!
ET, It kind of sounds like you're saying that, if you've been mentally or physically or verbally abused, that its your fault for having that happened to you?
I dont feel hes saying that necessarily, He saying that if you are using these as reasons as to why you cannot be successful then its your fault. Additionally if you keep putting yourself in a position to be abused then its your fault.
@AlexFreconHD No, that is NOT your fault, no way. However, if you let it paralyze you from reaching your ultimate dreams you are somewhat at fault for your failure. Life isn't easy or fair, the secret is to make lemonade out of the lemons when the shit hit the fan. That is what defines all of us. Good luck to you and peace!

"David is trying to help me be a better reader and writer, but Eric is being Obstinate" - he must have loved you for not only replying correctly but in a witty way as well!
Great words of encouragement. You are really speaking in a language that connects with young people. Its your fault but, its not too late. Keep on doing what you do.
@ Rampage is that all you got from this? Do you know anything about fashion you clown, just like tube012578 said IT'S THE NEW POLO!! Yo this dude is spittin real talk and throwing tru darts and you worring about a freakin shirt WOOOOOOW. Get your mental wieght up not the fashion hate-up
i just got hook on to u today via facebook..i have recently enrolled back into school ..i had been trough so much but i played the balme game..thnkd to god i was able to get myself back into school and i am loving it ..yep im one og the ones that shou ld have been done but i ran ..im not running anymore im putting my hole self in..ur videos seemed like confermation for what ive been through and what i am becoming. Thank u for conferming what i already knew my God bless u even more than he has..
@sugarbear968 honestly that's some real shit...keep up the good work man, I'm about to graduate college and start my internship i watch these videos daily to keep me going
hey you guys watching this, if you truly enjoy Erics Videos, and want to do your part in helping him become successful, and gain youtube superstar status (which he deserves) then simply send this video to your friends, or every monday put a link in your facebook status to the TGIM video. heres how to do it: can you see under the video their is a button that says "share" and has a little facebook symbol. click on that - then click on "facebook" then log in, and click on "share". simple.
ET You the man keep these amazing Monday videos. I hope you check out mine that I just started following me from Drug addict to success Kepp it up bro
Anyway, correct me if i'm wrong, it seems like your videos are aimed mainly at black culture. Just wanted to let you know that I'm Iranian, born and bred here in London and can relate to all your videos as well. I don't exactly know your situation but I think you could really take off and send your messages out to everyone, like Anthony Robbins who is aimed at all different cultures.
@ayd1nmo some of his old videos certainly are, but i noticed that his newer videos are aimed at everybody, because all humans can be lazy and not perform to their best level. So thats why we can all relate to his motivational videos, because when I watch them, I feel as if he is kicking my ass and telling me to get in to 5th gear. thank you eric
Eric, your videos are great thank you. I wish more people would watch/listen to this stuff, you have a good way of getting messages across. To be fair, these videos should have 200k views not just 200...
This might be a little irrelevant, but I want to thank you for showing me the correct spelling of 'obstinate'; I've always been under the impression it was 'obstinant.'
This might be ET's best video ever...damn this is good stuff.
