أنتم تختلقون الأعذار

لا أحبذ الأعذار

تستطيعون إيجاد الفرص

لا تقبل الأعذار

ليس لدينا وقتٌ للأعذار

سيكون لديّ عذر

لا يوجد عذر

لا عذر يا صديقي

لن أبقى آسفًا على نفسي

لعلّه كان خطأي،

ربّما جلعتكم تعتقدون أنّه سهلٌ في حين أنّه ليس كذلك.

ربما قدتكم إلى الاعتقاد بأنّ نجوميتي بدأت في خطّ الرمية الحرّة

وليس في النادي.

ربّما جعلتكم تعتقدون بأنّ كلّ رميةٍ رميتها حققت لنا النّصر.

وبأنّ لعبتي بُنيت على البريق، وليس على النار.

لعلّه كان خطئي أنّكم لم تروا كيف أنّ الفشل أمدّني بالقوة

وبأنّ الألم كان مُحفّزي

ربّما قدتكم إلى الاعتقاد بأنّ كرة السلة موهبة،

وليس شيئًا عملت جاهدًا لأجله كلّ يومٍ من حياتي.

ربّما دمّرت اللعبة،

أو لعلّكم تختلقون الأعذار وحسب.

إن كنت رجل أعمال فالأمر كلّه عائدٌ إليك,

فكثيرٌ من الناس يميلون إلى اختلاق الأعذار،

ليس لديّ معارف، لا أملك المال أو هذا وذاك

ولكن إن كنت شغوفًا بما تفعله ومُتقنًا له

وأردت أن تجعل منه مشروعًا تجاريًا

فستستمتع بممارسة شغفك في أسواء حال،

أو ستجعل منه مشروعًا مربحًا في أحسن حال

فأنا لا أحب الأعذار

أعتقد أنّ كلّ شخصٍ لديه فرصة النجاح إن أرادوا ذلك

لدينا مجموعة علي بابا و تي مول و تاوباو وعلي باي،

ويسألني الناس: كيف تستطيع فعل ذلك؟ ولماذا؟ لمَ لا نستطيع إيجاد الفرص؟

بل تستطيعون ذلك!

وأنا أرى النّاس -كما هم هنا اليوم- يتذمّرون لعدم إيجادهم للفرص أو الوظائف أو هذا وذاك

أذكر أنّي كرهت بيل غيتس قبل 20 عامًا، لأنه استولى على كلّ الوظائف، فهو رجلٌ عظيم،

لاري بيج وبيل غيتس وكلّ أولائك النّاجحين.

فلمَ لم أحظى بمثل فرصهم؟ ذات السؤال اللذي تسألونه.

لاحقًا، هدّأت نفسي.

ونجحت لحسن حظّي.

فأنا محظوظٌ لمعرفتي الكثير من المشاهير.

بيل غيتس، وارن بافت، جالك ويلش، لاري بيج، مارك زوكربيرغ، أعرفهم جميعًا

وأودّ أن أخبركم بأنّ الفرق بين هؤلاء والأشخاص الآخرين

يكمن في تفائلهم الدائم للمستقبل.

فهم لا يتذمّرون، وإنّما يسعون جاهدين لحلّ مشاكل الآخرين.

وأنا أعتقد بأن الفرص تكمن في ما يشتكي منه الناس،

استمع لشكوى الآخرين وفكّر في حلٍ لها، فتلك هي الفرصة.

لقد عانيت من سوء طبعي وقلةِ تقديرٍ لذاتي،

وكلّ ما قد يحول بيني وبين النجاح،

ولكنّي حظيت بما هو أهمّ، أمّي اللتي آمنت بي.

واللتي ما كانت لتسمح لنفسها بأن تكون الضحيّة، مهما كانت الظروف

لم تكن لتختلق الأعذار، و لم تكن لتقبلها منا.

and if the answer was yes then she said
then you could have thought your way out

of it doesn't matter with John and Susan
or Mary or anybody else did or set and

it was the most important thing she did
for my brother and myself because if you

don't accept excuses pretty soon people
stop giving them and they start looking

for solutions and that is a critical
issue when it comes to success

we know that too many young men in our
community continue to make bad choices

and I have to say

growing up I made quite a few myself

sometimes I wrote off my own failings as
just as another example of the world

trying to keep a black man down

I had a tendency sometimes to make
excuses for me not doing the right thing

but one of the things that all of you
have learned over the last four years is

there is no longer any room for excuses

I understand there's there's a common
fraternity Creed here at at Morehouse

excuses are tools of the incompetent
used to build bridges to nowhere and

monuments of nothingness but we've got
no time for excuses

not because the bitter legacy of slavery
and segregation had banished entirely

they have that not because racism and
discrimination no longer exists

we know those are still out there it's
just that in today's hyper-connected

hyper competitive world with millions of
young people from China and India and

Brazil many of whom started with a whole
lot less than all of you did all of them

entering the global workforce alongside
you nobody is going to give you anything

that you have not our nobody cares how
tough your upbringing ones

nobody cares if you suffered some
discrimination

and moreover you have to remember that
whatever you've gone through it pales in

comparison to the hardships previous
generations endure and they overcame

them and if they overcame them you can
over come up to my son's 14 is fabulous

and we're having this conversation about
what he plays in sports or when he does

something about you go full out or do
you not

and I see sometimes in him that when
he's out on the field of doing something

he doesn't play full out and I'll have
an excuse like my leg hurts or my arm

hurts or something happened the coach
was unfair whatever angle the referee

was unfair and what happens with people
as we tend to go out into the world and

we look for those sort of excuses about
why things aren't the way we want them

and when you do that you lose all your
power in life when you start focusing on

the external on the excuses you lose
your power here is the way people really

think i will tell you i can go out on
the stage and bomb

you go out there you just bomb right and
people will respect you for going out

there and trying your hardest

it's not how you actually perform that
earned the respect of your peers is the

fact that you went out and actually did
it

that's the difference I decided to go to
film school because i love the idea of

making films and photography and
everybody said it was a crazy thing to

do because in those days nobody made it
into the film business

I mean just unless you were related to
somebody there was no way in

so everything is silly you're never
going to get a job but I I wasn't moved

by that i set the goal of getting
through film school and just then

focused on getting to that level because
I didn't you know I didn't know where I

was going to go after that I wanted to
make documentary films and eventually I

got into the goal of once i got the
school of making a film

one of the most telling things about
film schools you got a lot of students

in those days especially not quite so
much today but wandering around say oh I

wish I could make a movie i wish i could
make a movie

you know I can't get in this class I
can't get any you know first place i

have an animation class it wasn't a
production class

I had a history class and I an animation
class in the animation class they gave

us one minute of film to put onto the
animation camera to operate it to see

how you could move left move right

make it go up and down and it was a test
to see you know the the teacher would

you had certain requirements that you
had to do you have to make it go up and

down and then the teacher would look at
it and say oh yes you maneuver this

machine to do these things and i took
that one minute film and made it into a

movie and it was a movie that one like
you know 20 or 25 awards you know in

every film festival world and kind of
change the whole animation Department

and their end in

meanwhile the other guys were into i
wish i could make a movie which is the

production class and so then I got into
another class and it wasn't really a

production class but I managed to get
some film when I made a movie and I made

lots of movies while I'm in school

well everybody also running around
saying oh I wish I could make a move

so speaking of excuses

one of my other favorite ones is no
excuses no victim mentality

the world owes you with nothing

the world might come help you but I
wouldn't count on it and if you start

from the feeling that you need the world
to participate in order for you to be

successful at taking on this new thing
that you're considering doing

you're right to be scared and white I
wouldn't count on it though

but if you start from the perspective
that the world owes you nothing which it

doesn't

and that is not likely to bring you any
particular help you have nothing to lose

because really isn't that for every one
of the people you brought on to team is

not how you

them to feel when they report to you you
know what excuses that doesn't mean that

you can't fail or that they can't ever
fail but right when you're starting you

have nothing to lose right

when you're a huge company you can spend
ninety nine percent of your time

worrying how not to mess up the
billion-dollar year

money hoes you've created but you don't
have a billion-dollar your money hoes

right now you have nothing

so you can't lose spend ninety nine
percent of your time imagining what

would happen if things went well and
planning for that because there's no

downside it's like a free option on an
adventure

remember to ask what do you feel is a
bigger obstacle to success

a lack of time or lack of capital
Roberto this is a tremendous question i

think the biggest obstacle

I to success is a lack of optimism that
question in itself is the problem my

friend right

you're looking at two things that are
both negatives and guess what

both of them are obstacles when i
started my library . com transformation

from my business

I had time i worked my face off every
minute but we don't have a whole lot of

money in our profit center so it took
more time right

it's just the way it is today i have
more money boy don't have time but

neither ever ever will be an excuse for
me and so just to Jill this through the

throat of the vaynernation that's right

I want that graphic don't smile d Rock
here's the bottom line

I refused to allow you to get an answer
to that question because both of them

are firmly square in the excuse column
and I have no patience for that there

will always be problems

let's talk about a million other things
that are a way to stop success

the health and well-being of your family
members so it takes your mind away from

execution the country you live in his
government and political you know

concepts at these moments

I lost startups in China that I've
invested in that got traction but then

people that were wired into the
government decided to not allow it to

happen and then the startup disappeared

not as easy to be an entrepreneur there
it's still a communist country sorry

it just is and so all

these things can be problems right
there's a competitor with a billion

dollars

who is also skilled and punches you in
the mouth and knocks you out in the

first round

right the world changing that mean
there's just a million obstacles right

the media one bad coverage of you a
moment in time

you know what I think about a lot you
know I think about a lot let's get

really real this is why we did this show

I always am a human being and I always
think about a moment in time what if I

just say the wrong thing at the wrong
time

right what if i call out China for being
a communist country in an episode while

i'm on a rant and somebody's watching
doesn't like the way that tastes and it

takes away a business opportunity for me
in china in seven years

even though i'm not trying to say it's
just things that I saw what if what if

you know what if what if i look down on
my phone while I'm driving even though

I've really not done that and I hit
somebody and I kill them and that

becomes the story and I like forget
about the story about what you think of

me

I will never recover from that because I
killed somebody

because I need to check out a tweet
these are moments in time so there are

so many things that can keep you from
being successful

right the people that you invested in
having something bad happened to them

so it slows you down my friends there
are a million reasons why not

but there's one great reason why which
is

you've just gotta persevere no matter
what it is it's just the way that it's

hard being an entrepreneur

it's hard building a business everybody
thinks it's so easy that there's an

entitlement there's a disaster

singing China here because my us thing
right now there is an insane generation

of 18 to 25 year olds right now that
think they're entitled to having a

business because they saw the social
networking movie and everybody decided

you're a kid and you know what tech is
because you used instagram early on

you're entitled to actually build a
business building a business is hard and

you know what makes it really hard

everything that happens every day of
every moment so you can pick time you

can pick money as the one or two things
that you think stop you from winning

your game but the truth is there's a

million reasons ninety-nine percent of
businesses go into business for a reason

and that reason is it's hard

and so if you're watching this show I've
got a sense of who you are and you need

to start creating layers and layers and
layers and layers of skin to be able to

get through because the glamour of being
an entrepreneur the goodness you know

you get very confused by my optimism
because it's my optimism i can't help it

it's just how i roll it's probably one
of the variable 1% reasons why I'm

successful but please don't get it
twisted

this is hard every day is hard and if
you don't have the stomach to weather

the storm

you will not be successful and by the
way let me throw you a real weird

curveball and that's okay

people have to look at themselves in the
mirror and understand if their number

two three four five six seven and her
organization that has differences of

being a number one but maybe that's
where your skill set

sits maybe that's how you make your
fortunes and happiness and all the

things that you're looking for and so
that question got me going a little bit

Steve because it's under the context of
excuses and i will never make an excuse

everything that's a problem with me
everything I don't achieve everything

that's a problem of being a media and
everything is my fault and I I succumb

to that and I respect that and I
actually think that's the way it should

be

and so I'm no excuses my friends when I
hand over heart surgeon a data i used it

i used to ask myself I just wanted to
myself I used to ask a good lord i just

pray why why did this happen have to
happen to me after what has a pretty

good person

I tried to everybody right all the
presidents got moved everybody I'm KidCo

he was that look

so what I why did the little piggy being
what I have to be there

the 14 more no unfortunately however you
want to look at to be streaking down and

have to suffer like this for you to have
after myself

18 months 18 months six months i had to
spend in a wheel to six more months

I had to sleep sitting down on the floor
with my back up against the wall because

if I laid down I couldn't breathe

they had a cut my diaphragm during the
surgery whole lot of complications when

I sit there as a good Lord why why did I
have to go through this

why why was that why did you do this to
me and it got so bad so bad the pain was

so bad i heard was so bay times that I
used to say lower it up if I'm gonna

have to live like this for the rest of
my life

then just take me take me now I don't
want to suffer like this anymore

I went to one of many many many doctor
visits that I had at the VA hospital a

young doctor approach me came up to me
CT

I heard it used to be the champion of
work and raise my head but had a little

little little

including pride they left and I say yes

I'm one and two heard about I'm the one
they told stories about

yes I'm CT fights he said what in tho
happen to you

ok for you don't hurt me don't hurt me
down

b-but i tell you what if that doctor was
here today I would thank him because he

is not

I'm it

is what made me determined to no longer
hold while in my self-pity

- no longer ask why did he do this to me

my determination change from that they
own

I want to prove to that little smart
wise

but I can come back

there I was still CT foot now one going
to let his little smart

be right I'm not down

athlete is over and not before
