Seriously can relate to this speech. First person in my family to go to college and I'm paying my own way through. Taking 19 units per semester + working 40 hours a week. I operate on 3-4 hours of sleep max. Go to bed at 3 am and wake up at 6:30 to 7:00 to be on time to my 8:30 am class. Because I'm paying my way through college, sometimes I don't have a lot of money for food. But I don't even mind it. I have the opportunity to attain the success that will lift me out of poverty! I will succeed!
Every time I want to give up, I come and watch this clip to become motivated again and again and again. This is what drives me forward. So special thanks to whoever put this clip together.
for all of you who need motivation just as I tell my students work every day of your life. play on your birthday play on Christmas play on thanksgiving make this your priority. and most of all to ensure victory...keep God as number one and your success will be inevitable.
I watched this video 2 years ago and inspired me to work hard every single day when I'm not at school I play I ball in tell 11:00 P.M everyday and I strive for the nba. I am in 8th grade and I am in the top 80 8th graders in the nation and I'm ranked the 17th best shooting guard and I have the 4th best 3pt percentage And I lead my team in scoring and steals 19.8 AND 4.1. If you see me in the NBA its because of this video
I tore my ACL 4 years ago robbed me of my ability to play the Game that I love, that in turn my grades fell off, I was always angry and I was getting right with the wrong crowd. As it all happened I saw this vid, I decided to pick things up slowly, my mindset got better, my grades started improving and I had news that I was gonna get my knee fixed. Fast forward 4 years later I have my degree I have a great high paying job, my knee is stronger post operation and I’m at the best shape of my life. I’m able to play the game that I love again and I feel like I’m the best version of myself right now and its only gonna get better. This vid was one of the things that sparked me back then, give credit to these motivational speakers their words can lift you from the deepest hole you can ever be in.
Its not about basketball, its about the moral message behind the video. Basketball is just one strong example of demonstrating the inspiration. I love this clip
No matter the outcome this ride has been one of a lifetime. Meeting people on LinkedIn randomly interested in the same projects I am, people with similar passions as me but complimenting skills just happen to finding me also and then tonight in a idea hit me like a lightning bolt with some help from friends on Slack and then this came on just topped off my night (morning?) , whatever you call it, just perfectly.
I'm a 14 year old guy who is tying to be very successful in life. I have been through a lot and lost my mother in the month of may ( who was my main inspiration) from a disease that had no cure. My mother and father wanted my sister and I to be very successful in life. My mother inspired me to play basketball even though i was bad at it at the time and i still play the sport today. She told me " You are a very smart boy and you can be anything you want to be." i'll never forget those words.
This video is the type of motivation you need especially for those who play daaketball it shows the hard work that you have to do in order to become better. For people who think you shold not sleep to be successful is stupid he is saying you might have to be willing sacrifice anything to become successful.
This is not just about Basketball, is about everything, if you want to succeed, you got believe, it doens't matter how tall you are, or where you come from... This game is really incredible... Bring tears to my eyes.
Trust me hard work is all that is needed. Nate Robinson rarely dunks but he's a good shooter and ball handler and that's what helps him. Pretty much every one i play against are at least twice my size.
I know it's irrelevant, but I study all year long because I am about to have exams about entering the University. This video gives me strength to continue. Great work man..
what its means isnt u cant sleep at all. the real meaning behind this masterpiece is u need to focus, sacrifice, hardwork. sleep in this context mean partying, have fun, slack off. sleep for athletes! not like normal people who usually spend many hours sleeping. u sleep at 10 p.m and wake up at 6 a.m! then practice again. its the real meaning
This video is true i myself Im a basketball player and. I always tell my team ...no. matter how much were losing by never quit because everything is possible at any moment..and sometimes u have to work extra hard but at the end its worth it
Being perfect, is being able to look your teammate in the eyes and tell them that there wasn't one more thing you could have done to help, that you did everything you could.
I'm 6'0 15 and I want to say the only way to succeed is to want it because other people say they are with you but they ain't they want you to fail so u have to do it for yourself
I'm not in college yet. Domestic is different cities/councils in the state. Trust me man it's all about working as hard as you can and it will all work out. For smaller guys ball handling and shooting are extremely important and i take pride in those 2 aspects of Basketball
Hi just to all guy watching this i was a german 2nd league player i should go into the 1st but i went to Irak and lost a part of my left leg....I made it into the league for people with such problems and now im the best in it....NEVER GIVE UP! EVERY ONE OUT THERE CAN MAKE IT EVERY ONE!
Remember my name. I will be their one day. I will play college ball and be their. Haters are some of my closest but those haters are my true motivators.
And then one day i saw curry's favorite verse: "I Can Do All Things...".And then for that time i saw curry's verse that word of wisdom made me to be strong and made me fight to all of my struggles in lif
Im 14 years old, my dad passed away when i was 7. I started basketball when right after i turned 8 years old. I have so much going aginst me, with nobody pushing me to as far as i want to go just my self and persaveriance. I made a select basketball team acupple months ago in 8th grade. I swear im going to the NBA even with everything going aginst me. I'll do anything. Just watch
u have to love something in order to be successful and if u don't like it...don't do it!!! but if u love it ... do watever it takes to be successful....keep in mind basketball is not da only sport and try individual sports to see if u will love it or not
Steve Nash grew up in canada, and practiced dribbling with a TENNIS BALL..he dribbled a tennis ball all the way to school every morning. he had school and everything you did.
you are right but if you really love this game you can to combine school and basketball at the same time.i have been playing basketball since i was 8 and i always managed to cope with my homework and my basketball team at the same time.now i am getting to a crucial point with my studies but i will not give up basketball because this is what i do and i love it.my point is if you really love what you do every problem can be solved.
+Michelle Salagubang Muggy Bogues was 5'3 and played 15 years in the nba. There is nothing called too short for basketball. you love the sport and i bet you can be as good as everyone else
+Michelle Salagubang dont say if just fuckin do it. Do or die you cant be half way in you gotta be fully in to win it all. Just like me same shoes except im 20 and 6'2 im going after it still if i am you should to.
Bro getting into the nba is a full time thing train every day stop playing video games stop going on the internet and train I want to be in the nba and going to be i trained 6 hours today and yesterday 5 i do it everyday as much as i can it's not given to you like lebron said "To be the best you got to work the hardest"
its true.. well he is right not every one have access to courts and gyms, for example the closest court to me is 3 miles away + its ruined, theres no gym around and i dont have access to anything related to basketball but man i love this game and i try to be better no matter what! there are no excuses just obstacles we can outreach!
You sir. Are one of the few intelligent people on youtube. I have to give it to you man. You not only took shit form that guy... but you were intelligent enough not to throw it right back at him and start a needless argument. Good luck with your life endeavors and God bless!
I wouldn't go so far as to say that this video is souly based on basketball. I believe the true meaning behind it, is that whatever you decide you wanna do in life, you have to give 110% in everything you do to achieve your goals and aspirations. Whether you wanna be a basketball player, doctor, teacher, whatever.
ive been playing basket ball since i was a 5year old and had to give up the sport for 3years for a reason...but i continue to play even though im injured.
im 5'4, in eighth grade, from new york, always loved basketball. try to shoot as much as i can try to PRACTICE as much as I can. it's snowing here so i cant really do that right now. during spring, i go to my local park, and i see all the kids better than me playing basketball and i think, how can i make it to the nba if i go against kids like this, but then i realize that everytime i see someone better than me, the next time out I WILL do my very best to be better than them. work to get there.!
I’m 15 years old 5’5 I’m too small to be a basketball player but I’m using myself as my motivation also I want to be successful for my family. “Heart over Height”
While you're having an asthma attack you don't care about nothing else like what you want, how much money you wish you had, or anything else all you're thinking about is to find a way to breathe an that shows how much you want that.
It's hard to say that much when you're in a different situation though. Right now im 5'6 and i dream of being a Linebacker in the NFL. You might think to yourself "who the hell is gonna hire a 5'6 guy to play linebacker?" Exactly. I'm still working hard, and hoping i grow all at the same time.
thats true but most of us don't aim to be the best of the best..the point is to workout for your own good and do as much as you can every day to become better and beat yourself.. on the other hand if you were getting paid as these pros do you should be the best so the video is inspiration to do whats better for you, if u are not a pro
Im 5'7 14 years old and my parents,teachers and friends say i wont make it to the nba but i put in work everyday focused on making shots sometimes practicing 10 hours a day cuz i know im going to the Nba hungry for success not gon give up on my dreams
The video is talking about the work they did to get to where they are, and how that when you get there, they are working hard to stay there. Parks and gyms never used to be near my house, I went outside to the driveway and practiced my crossover every chance I got. It's things like that, they are trying to stay there by working hard. Almost none of them came there with trainers and professional equipment. They were still in the Ghetto in High School, they still found a way to work hard.
man anyone can do it it's about the time you put into it and you have to know what you have to get done to make it happen you can't go half way effort it'll be extremely hard if you go all the way you have to know that if your going to go for it
first of all life is much more different than those inspirational words, im not saying there bad, but also stay realistic according to what you can do with God and knowing that if you try to do it alone with out God you wont last to long until you realize you cant do it with out God.
I never mentioned religion only I mentioned God and GOD is not religion, our own ambition is not good enough in this life, if where not doing what GOD commands of us than all we do in life wont lead us to heaven, why should we focus on lifes materilalistic, money, ect. pleasures when we wont get a free pass to heaven with that. we as humans don't live forever physically but spiritually we do. so our motivation should come from GOD and GOD only.
So what you are basically saying is people should aim for mediocrity and settle for what is given to them? That is it huh that's what your saying? You sound like a government official man, "let them blossom to half their potential". I don't think God would want us to suppress ourselves by being "realistic". Everyone should be the best they can be! You sound like a person that does not want to see others surpass you, you want to contain them, cage them if you will. PATHETIC MAN. Don't listen to this delusional dude, BE THE BEST THAT YOU CAN BE!
It's people like you that Fuel my Anger man. Suppressors. We have gun suppressors but we don't suppress people. If you don't like the message of this video then get the fuck out of here man.
he doesnt literally mean dont eat or sleep. He just wants you to know the type of effort you need to put in for you to know you are putting in work. When you even forget the necessities such as eating and sleeping.
Dude I definitely understand where your coming from. Not being in the best money situation right now I had to sell all weights that I had just too get a measly 200 dollars, but that didn't stop me I filled water jugs to the brim and did lots of reps to get the same experience, I coppied drills and training vids from youtube, cause God knows I don't have money for that. You just need to want it bad enough. Determination will pay off in the end bro.
Good luck!! Modern families (medium rich) still "protect" their children making them failures in the future. So, ironically, you are "lucky" at the moment and I hope you will become a famous player! p.s. sorry for my bad english :)
Guys, dont go out and drown yourself. The point of what he's saying is to create a BURNING desire within yourself for something. Desire is the engine of success
I was thinking that my lifestyle wasn't letting me live my dream and I was about to quit...than UA-cam recommended me this video, like a kind of signal. Maybe it's time to believe (?)
It's that those people don't desire it as much as they think they do. "No parks within distance." That's an excuse. Find one, if its a mile, 2 miles, or even 100. Don't stop pursuing what you want. There are 3 answers in life, "Yes", "No", and "No excuses." People have to learn that.
Alot, of NBA players had nothing like that, granted most of them did have a basketball court to play on. Allen Iverson's mum provided him with shoes, instead of paying the electricity bill... things are always hard.
I think the real difference is, some people dont want it as bad as others. Weather or not you dont have time or dont have a trainer or dont have a open gym court, you can still do it. You must want it so bad so that you have to make time for yourself. You must want it so bad that you will go and practice your ball handling skills. You must want it so bad that you must know what it takes to become who you want and succeed. You must want it so bad that you need it. The question is, do you?
I want to be succesfull as much as i wanna breath and i can prove it by saying i practice a hour a day right after school and a few hours later i come outside and practice fundamentals for another hour and on the weekend i practice for sometimes 3 hours of constant post, dribbling, layups, jumpsots and i try to cut down my eating habits and if im really on fire ill play sometimes from 5pm to 10pm and when your a 12 year old center at 6 foot its hard to get motiveted but it been going for5 month.
this video is about sacrificing desirable things for success, such as partying. this video shows that whilst some people sleep!, whilst they party and whilst they waste their time YOU should BE WORKING HARD CHASING YOUR DREAMS and whilst they rest YOU SHOULD BE WORKING HARD IN THE GYM OR ON THE COURT
This ain't about basketball. This is about life.
You dont care about basketball game you dont care about party

just watch, I may not be top ranked 80 in nation but imma get there before you
Thats a challenge bro 😊😝
Zach Miller hell yea it is
Zach Miller wait until you get in grade 11 or 12 hwk non stop
Zach Miller your an idiot if you don't go to school
Every time I have a bad day on the court. This is what I come home to and listen to this everyday
never give up on your dreams you can do whatever you want this video gave me a lot of CONFIDENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The clips of the big 3 struck something in me. So glad I got to witness that NBA season, Looking forward to the next one.
Trust me hard work is all that is needed. Nate Robinson rarely dunks but he's a good shooter and ball handler and that's what helps him. Pretty much every one i play against are at least twice my size.
this video can change a WHOLE perspective in 5 minutes! much respect
I know it's irrelevant, but I study all year long because I am about to have exams about entering the University. This video gives me strength to continue. Great work man..

this is one of the MOST inspirational basketball movies ever. no words
this is what i listen to when i workout it doesn't realy pump me up or gets me hyped it just encourages me to keep going
Watching this got me through times where I thought about quitting.

1 of my favourite videos on youtube
I'm 15. 5'5. Yeah I'm too short to be an basketball player. But I used that Height to be the best. Im a point guard.

+LittleBitOf8Bit Thanks. One day if I'm famous I'll thank you.

Bro getting into the nba is a full time thing train every day stop playing video games stop going on the internet and train
I want to be in the nba and going to be i trained 6 hours today and yesterday 5 i do it everyday as much as i can it's not given to you like lebron said
"To be the best you got to work the hardest"
Thanks guys.
He doesn't tell anyone not to sleep, he's just saying that you need to be prepared to make sacrifices.
one of the best videos on youtube
Voice is Eric Thomas "The Hip Hop Preacher"...He has had me watching different videos and showing them to my team all week that I coach.
i will listen to this before every basket practice and every match !:D
its true.. well he is right not every one have access to courts and gyms, for example the closest court to me is 3 miles away + its ruined, theres no gym around and i dont have access to anything related to basketball but man i love this game and i try to be better no matter what! there are no excuses just obstacles we can outreach!
You sir. Are one of the few intelligent people on youtube. I have to give it to you man. You not only took shit form that guy... but you were intelligent enough not to throw it right back at him and start a needless argument. Good luck with your life endeavors and God bless!
Fantastic video. Super inspirational. Keeps me going everyday!
a Guru is "a spiritual teacher, one who imparts initiation."
basically a very wise person.
I wouldn't go so far as to say that this video is souly based on basketball. I believe the true meaning behind it, is that whatever you decide you wanna do in life, you have to give 110% in everything you do to achieve your goals and aspirations. Whether you wanna be a basketball player, doctor, teacher, whatever.
1% talent 99% work work work and only work!!! That is the LIFE LESSON!
ive been playing basket ball since i was a 5year old and had to give up the sport for 3years for a reason...but i continue to play even though im injured.
im 5'4, in eighth grade, from new york, always loved basketball. try to shoot as much as i can try to PRACTICE as much as I can. it's snowing here so i cant really do that right now. during spring, i go to my local park, and i see all the kids better than me playing basketball and i think, how can i make it to the nba if i go against kids like this, but then i realize that everytime i see someone better than me, the next time out I WILL do my very best to be better than them. work to get there.!
best video i have ever seen in my life
Guru ona different level. mans gotta breathe for success gotta feel it gotta smell it
I’m 15 years old 5’5 I’m too small to be a basketball player but I’m using myself as my motivation also I want to be successful for my family. “Heart over Height”
I wish there was someone to motivate me everytime (:
It's not about losing sleep, that would just be stupid. It's about being willing to give up something you love and need.
While you're having an asthma attack you don't care about nothing else like what you want, how much money you wish you had, or anything else all you're thinking about is to find a way to breathe an that shows how much you want that.
fantastic video, i wnt to succeed. tired of being underestimated. great video.
It's hard to say that much when you're in a different situation though. Right now im 5'6 and i dream of being a Linebacker in the NFL. You might think to yourself "who the hell is gonna hire a 5'6 guy to play linebacker?" Exactly. I'm still working hard, and hoping i grow all at the same time.
It's not that they don't want to be successful, it's that they don't want to put in the work to get there.
thats true but most of us don't aim to be the best of the best..the point is to workout for your own good and do as much as you can every day to become better and beat yourself..
on the other hand if you were getting paid as these pros do you should be the best
so the video is inspiration to do whats better for you, if u are not a pro
Im 5'7 14 years old and my parents,teachers and friends say i wont make it to the nba but i put in work everyday focused on making shots sometimes practicing 10 hours a day cuz i know im going to the Nba hungry for success not gon give up on my dreams
Studying the game is like my job i have to study basketball i study players like iverson,kobe,harden,kyrie and jordan
Jake Williams s
This stuff is tight!! great job guys.
The video is talking about the work they did to get to where they are, and how that when you get there, they are working hard to stay there. Parks and gyms never used to be near my house, I went outside to the driveway and practiced my crossover every chance I got. It's things like that, they are trying to stay there by working hard. Almost none of them came there with trainers and professional equipment. They were still in the Ghetto in High School, they still found a way to work hard.
Tomorrow I have a competition in basketball, I hope you will help me this video....Best motivational video EVER!!
I'm a 6'1 13 year old trying to make it to the NBA no one says I can my teacher told me have a back up plan I don't have one cuz it's going to happen
"To the teachers that say I won't make it here I spend a day what u make a year"
man anyone can do it it's about the time you put into it and you have to know what you have to get done to make it happen you can't go half way effort it'll be extremely hard if you go all the way you have to know that if your going to go for it
That's great! I'm sure you're gonna make it! Work hard and always remember: keep going, no matter what 💪🏼
That kind of mentality is what's going to get you in the NBA
You'll make it I believe in you I wanna make it too
first of all life is much more different than those inspirational words, im not saying there bad, but also stay realistic according to what you can do with God and knowing that if you try to do it alone with out God you wont last to long until you realize you cant do it with out God.
im not going to aruge with you all I did was say what I think..
I never mentioned religion only I mentioned God and GOD is not religion, our own ambition is not good enough in this life, if where not doing what GOD commands of us than all we do in life wont lead us to heaven, why should we focus on lifes materilalistic, money, ect. pleasures when we wont get a free pass to heaven with that. we as humans don't live forever physically but spiritually we do. so our motivation should come from GOD and GOD only.
lol yeah ok
So what you are basically saying is people should aim for mediocrity and settle for what is given to them? That is it huh that's what your saying? You sound like a government official man, "let them blossom to half their potential". I don't think God would want us to suppress ourselves by being "realistic". Everyone should be the best they can be! You sound like a person that does not want to see others surpass you, you want to contain them, cage them if you will. PATHETIC MAN. Don't listen to this delusional dude, BE THE BEST THAT YOU CAN BE!
It's people like you that Fuel my Anger man. Suppressors. We have gun suppressors but we don't suppress people. If you don't like the message of this video then get the fuck out of here man.
he doesnt literally mean dont eat or sleep. He just wants you to know the type of effort you need to put in for you to know you are putting in work. When you even forget the necessities such as eating and sleeping.
Phenomenal video!! Salute from iwontlose channel.
Dude I definitely understand where your coming from. Not being in the best money situation right now I had to sell all weights that I had just too get a measly 200 dollars, but that didn't stop me I filled water jugs to the brim and did lots of reps to get the same experience, I coppied drills and training vids from youtube, cause God knows I don't have money for that. You just need to want it bad enough. Determination will pay off in the end bro.
Good luck!! Modern families (medium rich) still "protect" their children making them failures in the future. So, ironically, you are "lucky" at the moment and I hope you will become a famous player!
p.s. sorry for my bad english :)
Guys, dont go out and drown yourself. The point of what he's saying is to create a BURNING desire within yourself for something. Desire is the engine of success
this video inspired me not to give up
Excuses man... Excuses are for people who need them. Who don't have the discipline to pull through.
If u want to succeed, u willing sacrifice everything to success.
I was thinking that my lifestyle wasn't letting me live my dream and I was about to quit...than UA-cam recommended me this video, like a kind of signal. Maybe it's time to believe (?)
my friends and i shoveled the snow off the courts in winter just so we could shoot man we still do. its all about will
It's that those people don't desire it as much as they think they do. "No parks within distance." That's an excuse. Find one, if its a mile, 2 miles, or even 100. Don't stop pursuing what you want. There are 3 answers in life, "Yes", "No", and "No excuses." People have to learn that.
I watch it ever day before basketball practice
At first I was like how could I chase my dreams if I couldn't dream? Then I realized...you have to make dreams your reality.
"Sleep,sleep is for those people who are borke,I don't sleep so I got a opportunity to make a dream become a reality".
The message isent dont sleep, its you have to have that mindset and that will and hunger to be successful.
this is SO inspiring.
Alot, of NBA players had nothing like that, granted most of them did have a basketball court to play on. Allen Iverson's mum provided him with shoes, instead of paying the electricity bill... things are always hard.
i have listened to this like 5 times now
I think the real difference is, some people dont want it as bad as others. Weather or not you dont have time or dont have a trainer or dont have a open gym court, you can still do it. You must want it so bad so that you have to make time for yourself. You must want it so bad that you will go and practice your ball handling skills. You must want it so bad that you must know what it takes to become who you want and succeed. You must want it so bad that you need it. The question is, do you?
an excellent message thanks for video
Never let anyone tell you you can't do it, follow your dreams, always, always!
I want to be succesfull as much as i wanna breath and i can prove it by saying i practice a hour a day right after school and a few hours later i come outside and practice fundamentals for another hour and on the weekend i practice for sometimes 3 hours of constant post, dribbling, layups, jumpsots and i try to cut down my eating habits and if im really on fire ill play sometimes from 5pm to 10pm and when your a 12 year old center at 6 foot its hard to get motiveted but it been going for5 month.
Душевно! Муражки по коже
this video is about sacrificing desirable things for success, such as partying. this video shows that whilst some people sleep!, whilst they party and whilst they waste their time YOU should BE WORKING HARD CHASING YOUR DREAMS and whilst they rest YOU SHOULD BE WORKING HARD IN THE GYM OR ON THE COURT
success will be yours
I've watched this so many times I literally memorized it lol
God Bless you, you will be successful.
Eric Thompson is such an inspiration
Thank you for your kind words :)
This made me cry!..
