Les Brown Youve gotta be hungry motivation to Interstellar soundtrack

he said oh man that’s just too much what do you mean too much you behind on your bills you talk about too much you know one way to get back on your feet real quick is to miss two car payments you talking about your tire there’s no competition out here decide that you’re going to push yourself most people won’t do that most people give up on themselves easily you know the human spirit is powerful there’s nothing as powerful it’s hard to kill the human spirit there’s benjamin israeli a man who became the head of a country at a time when jews were not allowed out after 10 o’clock he said how did you do it how did you achieve against such great odds he said nothing can resist the will of a people that will stake even their existence on the extent of their purpose for good that when you have a made-up mind when you decide that you want to do something i was reading something the other day he said the power to hold on in spite of everything the power to endure this is the winner’s quality the hunger the ability to face defeat again and again without giving up this is a winner’s quality you have that quality within you when you’re hungry you don’t care about the facts you don’t care about the odds doug williams played for the washington redskins quarterback john elway of the denver broncos in the super bowl everybody was talking about elway elway after the super bowl when doug williams made a historic passing game i asked him said how were you able in spite of all of the negative publicity saying that you couldn’t win how did how did you do it he said i ignored my critics i just didn’t pay any attention to them i ignored myself because they kept on saying it so much there were times i doubted whether or not i can do what i needed to do there’s a doug williams and everybody here there’s greatness in you and you’ve got to learn how to tune out the critics outside and the critic inside and says i’m going to do this i’m going to harness my will and i’m not going to let anything stop me i deserve this i’m going to do it until and this friend i told him says start increasing your calls i said i make a hundred calls a day i got a callous in my ear my you’re kind of dark you can’t see it but it’s there his sales have increased he’s working harder now the other thing is that if you want something you have got to be relentless you’ve got to learn how to become resourceful you’ve got to learn how to become creative when crisis striking your life and in a chinese language crisis mean danger but it also means opportunity and this is an opportunity for you to grow and you’ve got to be so relentless regardless of what comes down the pike that you’re always looking for a way to get over always looking for a way that you can break through always looking for a way that you can win always looking for a way that you can strike a telling blow and pretty soon i think there’s some people watching us in the universe that say wait let’s call a meeting over here you know that guy must stop and look at him on there he won’t stop just that fool don’t know he can’t get over look look look look look here why don’t we do this let him go and let’s mess with somebody else just let him go through life will just get tired of whipping you sometimes and just say let’s just let this one go i believe this now no one has told me this but i just kept on kicking i didn’t have sense enough to stop i was intelligently ignorant i didn’t know what i couldn’t do so i just tried anything and the fascinating thing about life because you can’t get out of it alive you might as well have a good time you know you rather have a good time live your life with passion with some drive i was giving a seminar the other day and i mentioned that i was going to do some training in august with some young teenagers and take about a hundred away to a two or three day camp and wipe them out been working on this so after the speech one of the parents walked up to me and said mr brown i i’d like for you to do something for my son he’s not motivated i said i wonder why i wonder what’s wrong with him he had no fire whatsoever see what what you do speak so loudly folk can’t hear what you’re saying and so if you don’t have any fire you know you’ve got to watch the the people the relationships that you develop how people of of kindred mindsets if you’re around folks who are dead and negative all the time they will affect you you want people that around you that have smiles on their faces looking good i was telling a group last week abraham lincoln refused to hire god because of his face he said but the guy can’t help it he said anybody over 30 is responsible for their face if you have some depressing face looking at you every day it affects your blood pressure keep these dead faces away from you it’s contagious this is serious so you’ve got to watch your continents watch your face have an uplifted expression watch your body posture all of these things affect you psychically you got to be the kind of person that you are fearless fearless folk leave phillies people alone there some people walk through a neighborhood and every dog in the neighborhood would bark at them but there’s some people come through ain’t nobody gonna mess with this you are unstoppable and because you are unstoppable because you’ve got power that you haven’t even begin to use yet you ought to yourself to release your brakes how many of you had the experience of pulling out of your driveway and you’re matched on the accelerator and the car was just going um it couldn’t move and you mash harder and it couldn’t move and then you discovered you had your emergency brakes on and then you release those emergency brakes and it goes true have you ever had that experience before most of us go through life with our brakes on holding back not giving all that we have not sharing all of ourselves most of us go to our grave still holding on rather than releasing it what are some of those things that that keep us from releasing it because of past experiences past defeats past pain we look back well it didn’t work out then it probably won’t work out now many people get confused their performances with who they are they are i was reading pat riley the coach of the los angeles lakers but you’re going to like this quote here after the trailblazers had blown them out of the water and i’m sure he said this last night they asked him how do you feel he said tonight we were exposed for what we are right now you see that if my speech tonight doesn’t work it doesn’t mean that i’m a bad speaker it means that what i did didn’t work tonight and i’ve got to separate what i do from who i am and i’ve got another shot see the last chapter to your life has not been written yet and it doesn’t matter about what happened yesterday it doesn’t matter about the things that you’ve done that you feel guilty about if you wouldn’t do it today you’re convicting an innocent person you’ve been reborn to a new state of consciousness and as they say if we knew better we would do better and so you we begin to decide i’m not going to be denied i remember and i was telling someone and they asked me would you repeat that again i was interested in going into broadcasting i’m adopted and that was my key out i wanted to make my mama proud of me i was a pr i was very much appreciative of what she’s done for my brother and sister and i and that was my way out and i went over to a radio station asked a guy that and told him that i was interested in broadcasting he looked at me in my straw hat and my overalls he said you have any broadcasting background i said no sir don’t what do you do i cut crash young ladies after what kind of work i do when i was working on the garbage truck i said well i’m a sanitary technician he said we don’t have any job for you i decided that that was something i was going to do i decided i’m unstoppable i’m going to go up in here i’m going to do this i started going to the radio station every day developing a relationship with the people that were doing what i wanted to do and that’s what i encourage you to do where whatever area you want to go and find people that are doing it the way you want to do it and develop a relationship with them when i decided to go in this area i wrote letters to dr norman vincent peale to zig ziglar to dennis waitley all of the giants in this area and i said this is something i want to do i’ve been following your career would you help me dr norman vincent peale answered my letter did an article on me wrote about me in the most recent book that he issued and done many broadcasts about me i wanted to develop a relationship and rapport with those people that were achieving those things that i wanted to achieve by the same token i would go to the radio station and i developed a relationship with the guys and they used me as aaron board they needed some food or someone to go pick up entertainers that came into town temptation singing my girl jerry butler singing for your precious love sam cook singing darling you send me i would pick up the entertainers at the airport and driving around in the disc jockeys big cadillacs they didn’t have any driver’s license but i was acting like i had stuff every day i used to go home and work on my communication skills developing myself it was whitney young he said it’s better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and not be prepared start working and developing yourself now and prepare yourself for what it is that you want because you expect to get it and when the disc jockeys were in the control room i would go in and watch them and develop the trust level and they would let me stay and i would watch and observe them working their controls when you want something out of life don’t worry about how you’re going to get it how is none of your business the most difficult thing it is is to hold the vision is to hold the vision so there i was at the radio station a guy was on the air and he started to drink by the name of rock i was outside the window looking at him and watching hungry and ready saying drink rock drink pretty soon the phone rang it was a general manager i said hello he said les this is mr klein i said i know he said rock can’t finish his program he’s slurring his words i said i know can you work the controls until one of the other disc jockeys come in would you call them i said yes sir i hung the photo i said now he must be thinking i’m crazy i called my mama and my girlfriend cassandra said y’all come out on the front porch and turn up the radio i’m about to come on the air i waited about 15 minutes i called him back i said mr klein i can’t find nobody he said well why don’t you go in there working controls until they get there and don’t say nothing here i said yes sir i couldn’t wait to sit down at that turntable mustafa i said look how this is me lb triple p les brown platter playing papa there were none before me and there will be none after me therefore that makes me the one and only young and single i love dominguez certified bonafide then duplicably qualified to bring you satisfaction and a whole lot of action look out baby i’m your loved man i was hungry somebody’s hand on your right and left and say you’ve got to be hungry well y’all something else you want to be persistent about what it is that you want to achieve alexander graham bell said what this power is i cannot say all i know is that it exists and it becomes available only when a man or woman is in that state of mind in which he or she knows exactly what he or she wants and is fully determined not to quit until they find it when our children are learning how to walk how many times will your baby attempt to walk and fall and you just say just sit down don’t try anymore you’ve fallen 20 times just sit down somewhere busting your lip and everything getting in folks wait when will a baby walk it will walk when it walks that’s when it will walk les when will you be known nationally as the motivator i will be known when i’m known that’s when i’ll be known don’t get caught up in well i’ve tried it four or five times and things didn’t work out if there’s something that you want and you’re hungry for it you’ve got to do whatever is necessary until and when you give the best you can and that’s not enough you must do what is required and don’t give up on yourself don’t throw the towel in so quickly many people give up on the one-yard line where if they have the determination just to keep on knocking it’s a funny thing about life if you’re home one day and someone is knocking on the door and you say i don’t want to be bothered today and if that person just keep on not saying can you believe that fool’s still knocking pretty soon you say what is it what do you want and that’s how you’ve got to be about your dream.
