So you probably had this great idea, this wonderful initiative, this thing you really felt you should do, only to have people shoot you down and slam the door in your face.
It may have been your boss in the office doubting your competence at a particular assignment. It may have been your family not believing in your ability to deliver. Or maybe it was your peers who wrote you off.
You know what they're all trying to do? They want to hold you down. They are trying to limit you. They want to stuff you in a corner like yesterday's newspaper. Oh, but they've got another thing coming 'cause they don't know who they are messing with.
They think you're a pushover, probably because you've let them push you around all these while. It's time to take a stand and show them that you're no pushover. Enough is enough. It's time to wake up and get yourself together.
They expect you to roll over and die. Maybe you've been humouring these naysayers by believing their grime and playing dead. Now you're gonna rise from your ashes like a Phoenix and you're gonna roar!!!
That's right. You're a champion. You're a world beater. You are a lion. You don't roll over and die, you fight till you break through. That glass ceiling is there for you to break through it on your way to the top. I don't care where they've written you off before now, you are gonna get up this very minute and start working to prove them wrong.
Kick down all those doors they slammed in your face. Succeed at the very thing no one gave you a chance of succeeding at. They say you don't have it in you, but we know better. They say you're a loser, we know better. They say you can't make it, it's time to make them eat their words.
You've got what it takes to prove them wrong. I know this and I believe it too. Now I just need you to believe with me.
Repeat this over and over again until you believe it: I've got what it takes. I'm a champion. There's no holding me down any more. I am gonna roar from the top of the pile.
Now, you must do more than just talk and believe. You must act on your belief. If you now believe that you're the best, then go out there today and prove it to everyone.
Albert Einstein said, "I am grateful to everyone who ever said 'NO' to me. They made me do it myself." I need you to channel that same spirit and light your fire. They have said NO to you, probably more than once. It's time to do it yourself. It's time to succeed despite their unbelief.
Those who have done it before didn't have two heads. If no one has done it before, you can be the first. Scratch that, you will be the first.
I give you one assignment today; let those naysayers hear you roar with success. Let them be deafened by your roar of victory.
I don't know who this charge is for, but if you're reading this and you know you are not where you ought to be, then I need you to find your courage and remember who you are.
They may have silenced you all this while making you hide and whimper. I need you to know: You're a lion. You don't hide and you don't whimper.... You roar!!!
Roar champ! Roar!
Yea, that's the spirit.
