Hello, GV. How are you?
Well, 2012 has started at an incredible speed.
Imagine this, in the first two months of the year,
I flew more than 80 hours.
I have flown more hours than a buzzard.
Flying here, there, and everywhere. Doing what I like,
making my projects happen.
I take great pleasure in that.
It gives me energy, it keeps me motivated.
By the way, it is about motivation that I want to talk to you
in this new GV video.
Motivation means, a motive for action.
A lot of people associate motivation to liveliness,
enthusiasm.
You probably think somebody is motivated
when he is smiling, when he is excited, when he is happy.
I want to tell you that a person could be crying and still be motivated.
He could be angry and still be motivated.
Being motivated is having reasons to take action.
I want to start off by asking you,
what are your reasons to take action?
What are your reasons to make it in this life?
What are your reasons to wake up every morning
and go out to fight for your projects?
Your reasons could be offering your family a better life.
Your reasons could be providing your children with a better future.
Your reasons could be achieving a superior quality of living,
so you could provide for the people who have helped you.
Help your mom, help your parents.
Nothing has the power to motivate you more than these reasons do.
Since this is very personal,
it is not up to me to tell you what these reasons should be.
I have got my own.
As to my reasons, you can be sure
I have my five main reasons on the tip of my tongue.
These five main reasons,
they have to be on your mind at all times.
Do you want to know why?
When the going gets tough,
when you’re feeling down,
what do you think can lift you back up
and motivate you to keep going?
Only these reasons can make you keep you going.
These reasons have the power to inspire you.
They have the power to renovate you. They have the power to push you forward.
These reasons motivate you more than anyone.
More than any little video.
Stop and think. Stop and think.
How many people try to destroy these reasons?
How many people try to put you down?
How many people try to break your confidence,
stop you from fighting for what you want?
There will always be vultures, buzzards.
Do you know what a vulture is?
A vulture feeds from carcasses of dead animals.
It waits around for an animal
to die
and then eats the flesh of that animal.
It feeds from the dead. It eats dead animals.
So there will always be vultures,
all around, trying to get you down,
trying to get you to give up your reasons.
That’s why it’s very important for you to bear in mind that which motivates you.
What makes you get up in the morning.
What keeps you, when times are hard, on the right path.
These reasons, you can be sure of that, buddy,
they have that power. And everybody has those reasons.
The problem is, unfortunately,
a lot of people don’t think of them. They live life at random.
Don’t let your life take you.
I’m sorry, Zeca Pagodinho,
but don’t let your life take you.
It is you who has to lead life towards your goal,
towards your reasons.
For that to happen, you have to make a list of those reasons,
keep it in mind,
take notes, so it’s always visible,
so it can really motivate you.
It can make you strong, especially when times are hard.
That’s it. Count on GV
to inspire you. We can exchange stories here,
not only here on YouTube,
go on Facebook as well.
Here’s the link to our Facebook page.
Like it, and we can interact a lot more there.
All the best and see you next time!
