Why do some succeed others fail l The Strangest Secrets #earlnightingale #motivational #inspiration

This is a #motivational and #inspiring video for fair use of a lecture of Earl Nightingale talking about #success and what the 95% of people do and why they are not successful. This lecture is as good today as it was almost 60 years ago. We live in a golden age despite all the problems we face yet we are unable to recognize it. This is the reason #immigrants do well in America. They usually do this! #motivation #motivationalmonday I'd like to tell you about The Strangest Secret in the world not long ago Albert Schweitzer the great doctor and Nobel 0:07 Prize winner was being interviewed in London and a reporter asked him doctor what's wrong with men today the great 0:13 doctor was silent a moment and then he said men simply don't think and it's about this that I want to talk with you 0:20 we live today in a golden age this is an era that man has looked forward dreamed 0:25 of and worked toward for thousands of years but since it's here we pretty well take it for granted we in America are 0:32 particularly fortunate to live in the richest land that ever existed on the face of the earth a land of abundant 0:38 opportunity for everyone but do you know what happens let's take a hundred men who start even at the age of 25. do you 0:46 have any idea what will happen to those men by the time they're 65 these 100 men who all start even at the age of 25 0:53 believe they're going to be successful if you ask any one of these men if he wanted to be a success he'd tell you 0:59 that he did and you'd notice that he was eager toward life that there was a certain Sparkle to his eye and erectus 1:06 to his carriage and life seemed like a pretty interesting adventure to him but by the time they're 65 one will be rich 1:14 four will be financially independent five will still be working 54 will be 1:20 broke now think a moment out of the 100 only five make the grade 1:26 why do so many fail what has happened to these Sparkle that was there when they were 25 what's become of the dreams the 1:32 hopes the plans and why is there such a large disparity between what these men intended to do and what they actually 1:39 accomplished when we say about five percent achieve success we have to define success and 1:46 here's the definition success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal if a man is working toward a 1:53 predetermined goal and knows where he's going that man is a success if he's not 1:59 doing that he's a failure success is the progressive realization of a worthy 2:04 ideal Rallo May the distinguished psychiatrist wrote a wonderful book called man search 2:10 for himself and in this book he says the opposite of courage in our society is 2:15 not cowardice it is Conformity and there you have the trouble today it's 2:21 Conformity people acting like everyone else without knowing why without knowing where they're going now think of it in 2:28 America right now there are over 14 million people 65 years of age and over and about 13 million of these 14 million 2:35 are broke they're dependent on someone else for life's Necessities now we learn to read by the time we're seven we learn 2:42 to make a living by the time we're 25 usually by that time we're not only making a living we're supporting a 2:47 family and yet by the time we're 65 we haven't learned how to become financially independent in the richest land that has 2:55 ever been known why we can form and the trouble is that we're acting like the 3:00 wrong percentage group the 95 percent who don't succeed now why do these people conform well 3:07 they don't know really these people believe that their lives are shaped by circumstances by things that happen to 3:13 them by exterior forces they're outer directed people a survey was made one 3:18 time that covered a lot of men working men and these men were asked this question why do you work why do you get 3:24 up in the morning 19 out of 20 had no idea if you ask them they'll say everyone 3:30 goes to work in the morning and that's the reason they do it because everyone else is doing it now let's get back to 3:37 our definition of success who succeeds the only man who succeeds is the man who 3:42 is progressively realizing a worthy ideal he's the man who says I'm going to become this and then begins to work 3:49 toward that goal I'll tell you who the successful people are a success is the school teacher who's teaching school http://peerallylaw.com [email protected] Phone (510) 7425887 Information provided are for educational purposes only.
