			Hi everyone. In this video, I'm going to
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			share with you the most important secret to
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:04
			success.
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:08
			Human beings have been given the ability to
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			fulfill all that we visualize.
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			Everything that you can dream of, everything that
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:13
			you can visualize,
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			you have that power to fulfill that.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			Look at human history.
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:21
			Things which were considered impossible a few centuries
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:24
			ago or a few decades ago, they have
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			been fulfilled today. Human beings have been able
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:29
			to conquer things which were considered impossible
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:31
			a few years ago. Look at the mobile
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:34
			phone technology that we are using today. None
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			of us could even dream of having a
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			mobile phone. None of us could even think
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:38
			of a technology
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			by which we could carry a phone with
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:44
			ourselves and connect with people. But somebody dreamt
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:47
			of it, somebody visualized it and was able
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			to conquer his vision.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			That is what human beings are capable of.
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			We are capable of fulfilling
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			all that we visualize,
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			all that we dream of.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:57
			This
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:58
			requires
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			constantly challenging ourselves.
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:06
			Human beings, when they stop challenging themselves, that's
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			when the decline happens.
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			You will often find that once people retire
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			from their work, those who are used to
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			working 9 to 6, you see the moment
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			they retire,
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			they start aging rapidly.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19
			Why? Because they have stopped challenging themselves.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			They don't have any other goals in their
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:23
			life. They've already retired.
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			In fact, the moment you start working in
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			a company, what is the first thing that
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:31
			they tell you? Start planning for your retirement.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			So as though the ultimate goal for you
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			is to reach the age of 60
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			and retire.
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:39
			But is that how human beings live? Today
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			medical science is advanced. We
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			most of us are able to live for
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			a long period of life, and if we
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			do that what are we going to do
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:48
			for the next 15, 20 years of our
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			life after retirement?
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			Because we've been taught to retire at the
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			age of 60 and sit back and relax
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:55
			and age
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:56
			gracefully
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			or age rapidly.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01
			Well, if you are someone who's constantly challenging
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			yourself,
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			challenging your milestones,
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:06
			you're going to age grace fully. You will
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:09
			continue challenging yourself. You will keep on taking
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:12
			on new missions in your life. But if
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			you're someone who does not have any other
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:15
			goal in life after retirement,
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			you're going to age rapidly. You will have
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			many more gray hair in a span of
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			a year than you had over the 60
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			years of your life.
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			Why does this happen with us? It happens
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:27
			because we stop challenging ourselves.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:28
			Look,
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			when Tariq Ben Zayed, the conqueror of Spain,
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			when he burned the ships,
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:37
			he sent a message to all his army
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39
			men, we are not going back.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			We're going to fight to conquer or we're
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			going to fight to die.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			There is absolutely
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:45
			no compromise.
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:48
			That's how we should be with our vision,
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:51
			with our mission in life, with our milestones
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:54
			in our life. There should be absolutely no
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:57
			compromise because human beings, the moment we start
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:57
			compromising
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			there's no end to compromise.
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02
			You can keep compromising on so many things
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:05
			in life. We refer to Tarek bin Zayed.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:06
			We learn that
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:09
			the way to conquer your vision, the way
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:12
			to conquer your mission is by not accepting
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:15
			to be the 2nd best, by striving to
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			be number 1, by striving to fulfill what
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:20
			your mission is, for what your vision is.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			You need to burn the ships.
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:24
			Are you ready to burn the ships? Are
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:25
			you ready to take on challenges in your
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:28
			life? Look, when you take on challenges in
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			your life, failures are bound to happen. Like
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:33
			I said, you could fight to conquer, you
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:34
			could fight to die.
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:37
			What if I fail in this process?
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:40
			Human life cycle is based on ups and
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:40
			downs.
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:43
			There will be moments when you will conquer
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:45
			the milestones and enjoy the success.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:47
			But then there will be those milestones where
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:50
			you may not succeed. There will be downward
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			trends in your cycle. And that's how human
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:55
			cycle is. That's how our life cycle is.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:57
			We've been given failures.
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			We've been given downward trends in our life
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			so that we can learn from it. The
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:06
			idea of failure was to learn from your
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:09
			failures. The idea of failing was to find
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			10,000 different ways of doing new things.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:16
			But many of us are going to face
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:19
			a failure and that failure is going to
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:21
			be a setback for us. It's going to
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:23
			push us back. It's going to mean an
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			end for our dreams.
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:28
			Failures are not supposed to put an end
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:31
			to your dream. Failures are not supposed to
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			cap your potential.
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:35
			Failures are only there to show you different
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:38
			ways of doing things. Failures are only there
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:41
			to push you further in your vision, in
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			your mission, but are you willing to challenge
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:46
			yourself? You need to ask yourself, do you
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:47
			cap your potential
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:51
			or is your potential there to fulfill all
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:52
			that you visualize,
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			all that you dream?
