  • I wanted to make music so I brought myself a synthesizer. That led to another, then a mixer. I reached a point where I said hey. I'm going to try singing & now I do. I practice day & night & still don't know everything but in 4 weeks time I will be starting a business doing music workshops. 40 years old I started & by the time I'm 42 I'll be teaching others to do it even quicker than me. The revolution of self belief has started. Make your dreams come true people. Nobody else will do it for you!

  • Since I watched this video, I have trained and trained for my sport (Athletics). Now I run 800 meters in 1:50.7. I am now a representative for Great Britain. I managed to get 4th place in the UK world championship trials. Since I came 4th I have trained harder, so next time around I will win and make it to the world championships. 2012 is now my goal and I am determined to reach it. If not... I will try, and try again, until I reach it.

  • oh my god

  • and off to the gym i go...

  • damn this got me motivated, time to put down the bong and hit those books.

  • @blazinfatt84 lmao epic comment

  • It true. I'm learning Japanese for the first time... I'm 21, I have already missed the "learn new things while you're young" edge. I go to college at 5 in the morning, come home at 12 in the afternoon and study until 11 PM. I'm still a noob at reading and speaking Japanese but we can all agree its not easy to learn. But now, I'm reading and speaking simple sentences. Its amazing. I feel very proud of myself and anyone can do it, just depends on how bad you want it.

  • I want to be a college softball player so every Tuesday and Thursday I wake up at 4 to go train with my team before school for 3 months then in January we train for 2 hours everyday after school so hard most of us end up throwing up and then we go to tryouts and you know what we are the best damn team around

  • It's almost 12am, and I am about to go sleep till I came cross this video, I will stay awake all night to finish my project. =)

  • "Sleep is for those people who are broke" Damn that made me all fueled up. It's time to get busy.

  • I will be successfull

  • I understand what he's trying to say, but when I sleep Im just trying to Dream

  • Really great motivational speech on how bad you want to succeed

  • "after they did my man Tom Landry wrong." Word!

  • this guy is amazing

  • you stole this video

  • the sad thing is that 99% of the people who've watched this don't actually do what they preach in their comments...

  • @dafunayama But 1% does. I will be in the 1%.

  • @dafunayama And how are you coming up with these statistics, do you know all the people who commented on this video?

  • @gmxgamer you gotta wanna TRANSLATE, more than you want SOMEONE ELSE to DO IT FOR YOU son!!! lol

  • @bubbzipp LoL you ´re right =p

    i´m gonna do it

  • Just a word to athletes you have to sleep a lot to rebuild muscle after intense training. Look that shit up it's how the body comes back stronger and faster and smarter. Rest of the message is true. You gotta want it as bad as air.

  • @alajet hes not saying you need to give up sleep, but that you have to be willing to give it up when a big opportunity comes along

  • @alajet he's not talking about it literaly he's speaking in an ironic sense. He's saying that you have to want it more than you want sleep. Also, he was referring to people who oversleep. 8 hours a day is all you need. There's no need to waste away precious time sleeping. We can sleep enough when were in the grave.

  • yea ... but when i dont sleep i feel like shit in the morning and cant get shit done

  • im a machine, i dont sleep!!!!

  • who can dislike this video??? 

  • ima have this as my alarm

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome concept.

  • Maybe those who believe success will be HARD WORK, guess what? It's going to be hard work and you will be working like a trojan non stop. For me I believe success is piss easy End. The guy needs to work on changing his limiting belief system.

  • Annoying ghetto accent...

  • Can I sleep now?

  • What's this guys name?

  • I am never sleeping!

  • I wished I saw this video earlier in my life.....

  • @jumpair23, if u're STILL BREATHING, it's NOT TOO LATE to make a change!!!

  • @minilupe3 good example but got the story wrong. Michael Jordan was a freshman nd got cut from varsity, nd played junior varsity. nd he was the number 3 pick in the nba draft not number 1

  • @RAJABOY28 LOL was about to fix him as well till I saw your comment... Good eye ;p *high-five*

  • micheal jordan didnt make his 11th grade bball team wat did he do he said i want it bad i want to be succesful so he worked out practiced did drills without even wanting to breathe sleep or eat what did mj do one year later yup make his 12th grade team but not only tht he was the best on his team in his leuge and went to collage he was the best in collage and then bacame the a 1st pick in the nba he was still not done he became a all star mvp won the final and now he is the best basketball playa

  • In this life you dont have to prove anything to nobody except yourself. There's always someone who's training harder in sports or in the books, how bad do you want it!!! Awesome inspiration my friend!

  • My goal is to watch this video everyday from now on

  • Comment removed

  • I wanna breathe.

  • His Tholder area..

  • His name is Eric Thomas... ET the HipHop preacher

  • You memorize this. You live this. You do this everyday and there is a person in the world that can stop you. You want success? You never stop. You do what you need to do. No talk. No promises. Just do it. All the people in the world out there that say you can't do something will be eating their words when you're on top and they're pissing life away. Live this shit and you'll never go wrong.

  • C but thats the problem!!

    Everybody here watching this video, looking 4 the quick solution again. "OOH I wanna be succesfull so I watch a youtube video". Thinking now I'm motivated, now i can get to my goals. But I'm sure none of the people making millions right now even know about this video. willing to do what it takes to be succesfull has to be strangled in your genes. Everybody watching this utube vid and thinking this is the answer... none of you will be succesfull im very sorry

  • @david0ffxxx To say that is to say only some have what it takes. I know anybody can, some easier then others but everybody can. This vid isn't an answer, it's an explanation.

    If anybody thinks this is the answer they can join those poor 19 souls who disliked this answering to "the man" (those who really get this message)

  • @MovingAndGroving I don't think everybody has got what it takes, succes is reserved for only a few (imo). There are so many aspects of being succesfull that motivation only doesn't get you there. And don't get me wrong I like this video. What he is saying is very inspiring. anyways just wanted to give some people a reality check and feel free to proof me wrong by accomplishing your goals. It's not impossible people do it all the time im just saying watching this vid ain't gonna get you there.

  • this guy is insanely amazing! he is a genius

  • First thing in the morning first thing at night.

  • "whether you think you "can" or you "can't" you're right."

    - Henry Ford

  • you're not Greyskale Multimedia, and i don't see any instance of them having posted this before this upload... what's with this?

  • Sounds like a wise man! Who is he?

  • 16 people pobviously dont wanna be successful...

  • Thank you for the motivation. Really needed it at this moment...

  • how can you dislike this video!?

  • how are you suppose to do your work, focus, train, learn, make money if you're tired all the time? you need your fucking sleep man. the point is you gotta work your ass off to be successful, just dont sleep when you don't need it

  • better said than done.. if you have the motivation and drive to fight for what you want you wouldn't need this video.. the story line is great but you need to put your self in that young man hoes who went to the guru.. cas he isn't looking up videos he is getting out and finding help, and when he sees his destination infront of him he begins the journey of 100 miles with a single step.

  • im going to watch this every morning!

  • Ya right work smart and u will be good work hard and a little smart u succeed

  • good points. for example Chuck Norris doesn't sleep he waits 

  • The fundamental problem I see here is that he's talking about success as it relates to money. Success should be less about money and more about achieving goals. How am I going to improve in (name it)? Well just know and understand three hard, but reasonable short-term and 3 long-term goals.

    in my opinion, success is gaining respect of co-workers/teammates that look up to you because you knew what you wanted and you regimented your life everyday to achieve it. Work smarter and not harder.

  • 14 people who dislike this are probz on the streets by now

  • what is this song

  • atleast I know i'm going to be more successful than those 12 people that disliked this video

  • @CbrewerUCLA is this enough for u dude :)?

  • @CbrewerUCLA 23....lol

  • all you motherfuckers are just saying you're gonna go do shit now, but the reality is you're not.

  • @muttonhead8 I agree. I mean, I love this video along with Achieving Greatness, another good one, I listen to them every morning, Im a D-1 prospect, I work very hard, but I know like 5 people right off the top of my head who say "If i want it bad I can get it" Haha they have nooooo chance

  • Great speech!

  • 12 people love sleep more than success

  • This is true... I have to stay up many nights studying inorder to do well in school.. Or work late then study and loose sleep. One day I will be rewarded.

  • WACK

  • @jennybo2 and u dumb as fuck

  • It just got pulled.

  • Does anyone have a copy of the "How bad do you want it" video?

  • Geenarkill obviously your broke and not successfull...by your response your one of those people that are really lazy and always justify about why your not making it in life!

  • is sucess really material?

  • people its a metaphor...

  • IDONT NEED THAT MONEY! I GOT IT IN HERE !

  • success is not simply about desire and sacrifice. and then if you don't do it, you are called lazy. life is more complicated than that.

  • @gp4nut

    That depends on what your definition of success is.

  • how are the kids in the back falling asleep WTF!

  • sleep is actually very important..lol

  • @theazn07

    not if you want to be Very successful.

  • @Geenarkill um, if u want to die you wouldn't sleep. sleep is an important process the body needs to function...as much as u think u don't need it cuz ur focused on something else, you'll do more harm to your body than good without sleep

  • @theazn07 i rather have success than sleep :\ after i reach success i sleep with alot of money :)

  • @theazn07 not as important as success "lol"...

  • I almost cried....

  • @CUPONKmasta77 me too

  • @rimspin2410 do not get one

  • "When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful" - Eric Thomas

    "Most of you don't want success as much as you want to sleep" - Eric Thomas

  • Anyone could put here some statements that he say ? Im spanish and I dont understand at all. Thanks !

  • black dude at 5:06 is pissing me off cuz it looks like he doesn't want to be there, not even paying attention. If I was in that seminar I would be super focused on what hes saying

  • @SeeMac23 If you didn't notice he entered the seminar at the end

  • @SeeMac23 which one :P

  • @SeeMac23 he probably disliked the video. and is unsuccessful. 

  • @SeeMac23 its extrememly embarassing when you realize that what he is saying is true... so that black went back to his little bubble.. instead of crying he tries his best to ignore him

  • this guy should be president; he seems to know how to lead at least lol

  • i love this guy and this story

  • this is so helpful

  • 10 guys tried to success and they failed.

  • sleep is for the weak!
