I was depressed for like 6 months, and I was thinking about suicide. So I'm like talking to my coach and he tells me don't do it man I'll send you a video that will change your life... He send me this video, I watched it 100 times, tomorrow I looked different, changed my life completely. This video save me from some serious shit. Thank God for this man!
I met a girl that was holding me back and she really likes me but I realize that I was offered a job with the porn industry AND that was a opportunity to get a JOB and get PAID! She just doesn't realize how much I wanted to work in the entertainment industry and this was a one time thing. So I have to sacrifice her, which I loved her, and she just doesn't realizes how much I wanted this. And since then I have sleepless nights because I now have a opportunity to turn a dream into a reality!
this guy makes a lot of sense..tymoney your right its a figure of speech...hes not saying dont ever go to sleep but sometimes when the tough gets going and you really want something you have to sacrifice things...the truth hurts...people ask whyisthat person successful theyre just like me..because they wanted more than you did accept it..
What has Eric Thomas been successful at, apart from motivational speeches? I'm just wondering as I've never heard of him, am warey of people who make success out of other peoples hunger but don't actually put in the work themselves. Not saying it's the case here, but am curious as to what line of work he has been successful in.
@jkino78. The work hes involved in is motivating people!!.. and he damn sure motivates me and im pretty sure he motivates plenty of other people so therfore hes successful.
you know this guy is right in some ways, but in many ways he's totally incorrect. I mean sleeeep is needed to help your body function properly and w/o it, it can have daunting effects on u in the future. And yea, w/ that phrase, "if u want to succeed as bad as u want to be breathe, then u'll be successful". I mean its a very enlightening phrase but it ain't all what it's cracked up to be. I worked my ass off all throughout college and earned an engineering degree. and jack shit has happened
@dime7pack The point was not that you should NEVER go to sleep, of course sleep is needed. I think the point he was trying to make was geared towards those who find more time to sleep rather than working. Its not all about a degree. Theres plenty of successful people with one.. and theres successful people w/o it. You must have character also. Confidence and faith will get you where you need to be. My motto is "work hard, pray harder". As long as you doing that then you will be successful!
found it on facebook from my buddy who is in the Marines. Had to do research to find it on youtube and here i am. Leave for Parris Island for Marines jan. 24th.
My name is Marko Simmonds (you can YOUTUBE me if you like). I'm from Nova Scotia, CAN. I just wanted to say that you were speaking what I have always believed in, "Neva Sleep".... I needed to hear that from someone, someone who believes in what he is saying. I thank you for reminding me that success requires SACRIFICE. Thank you Eric...all the way from Nova Scotia.
i will never give up again.

Good message, but it was very inappropriate for him to grab a student in the manner he did.

@mattm88228 dude- shut the hell up. He is passionate about what he does. People like you hold people that are hungry for success down.
