The Journey To Your Somewhere: Embracing Change And Growth (Motivational Speech)

In this episode, Reginald D delves into the concept of "somewhere out there," which symbolizes the dreams and desires we all have for our lives. He emphasizes the importance of having a clear vision for what you want, as you cannot achieve what you cannot see. It's crucial to recognize that mediocrity is not an option; you must strive for greatness and be willing to change your current circumstances.

Reginald D outlines three choices for those unhappy with their current state: live with it, leave it, or change it, with the latter being the only viable option. Taking a leap of faith is essential for growth, and he encourages you to predict your short-term and long-term goals while managing the process to achieve them.

Welcome to Real Talk with Reginald D. I'm your host, Reginald D. On today's episode, we're going to talk about somewhere out there. Let's go. One of the definitions of somewhere means a place symbolizing positive accomplishment or progress. I need you to understand that somewhere in this life is your dreams and what you desire for your life. It's somewhere. It really exists. I know a lot of times you don't think you do because you haven't gotten there yet. But I'm telling you that it's out there somewhere. You just got to figure out how to get to it. Let's talk about this. In order to get your dreams and desires in life, first you got to have vision. You got to see what you want for your life. You can't achieve what you can't see. What is your vision for your life? Your vision has to be so compelling that it pushes you harder to achieve your dreams. Somewhere out there is everything you want for your life, but you got to stop being average. Being mediocre in life is not life. It comes a time when you should grow out of that. You shouldn't be 30 years old and still living a mediocre life. Somewhere out there is a life that's much greater than where you are right now. Somewhere out there. It's out there, trust me. In order to find the life that you desire, You must know that you have three choices. You have three choices if you are not happy with the current state you're in. You can either live with it, leave it, or change it. And the first two is not an option. Once you choose that you want to change, next you have to have a leap of faith. That's the only way you're going to grow. Faith is scary sometimes, but it's necessary. In order to keep your faith, you have to realize that your dreams and desires are out there somewhere, and you got to keep working at it in order to achieve it. You have to be able to predict where you want to be in life and in what time frame. It's called short-term and long-term predictions. Then once you put that in place, then you measure your targeted goals. Now you're doing nothing but managing the process to your dreams and goals. When you manage something, now you have control over it. Achieving your dreams and goals is not going to be easy. But I'm telling you that it's out there somewhere. You just got to ask yourself this question. Am I willing to keep searching for what I want for my life? Am I built to last? You got to understand that somewhere out there is everything you desire for your life. You need to start getting what you deserve. Somewhere out there is the dreams you keep dreaming about. What you wish you had is out there somewhere. But in order to achieve it, you must want it bad enough. You must get it and have the capacity to do it. Because God is not going to give you something you don't have the capacity to handle it. I need you to understand that you are unique. You are a process, but you are a guarantee. So once you understand that you are unique and there is something special about you, then stay disciplined in working the process towards your dreams and desires. Then most likely you will be guaranteed to accomplish it. Your dreams and desires are somewhere out there, but you have to be passionate when pursuing it. Your passion will keep you excited about your dreams and desires for your life. It will give you the energy to keep going. Let me ask you this. What is hindering you from achieving the things you want for your life? It's somewhere out there. What's holding you back? Once you know what it is, then you can deal with it. And you got to deal with it. The thing you fear the most is the thing you need to achieve your dreams and desires for your life. Think about all the things you have been through in life. Out of all the things you have been through, you are still here. You are still here because somewhere out there is your destiny. You keep winning your battles. You are undefeated. Quit settling for the good in you and go for the great in you. Somewhere out there is a light that will change you and the people that's connected to you. You are brave enough to see it, but you also have to be brave enough to be it. Whatever you see yourself being, then you're going to have to have the courage and be brave enough to be it. And that's the hard part. A lot of people have never became what they saw themselves to be. That is so disappointing. They live their life without fulfilling their purpose. I need you to understand that somewhere out there is a life that's really meant for you. But in order to get it, you can't be satisfied with the life you got. Have you ever heard the term, you got to start somewhere? When you finally find that somewhere, that's when your life will truly begin. Somewhere there is an opportunity that is going to change your life. You owe it to yourself to keep trying. Somewhere out there is a moment that's life-changing just for you. Think about a person that can sing. There are millions of people that can sing, but there's only a few that make it big and have a successful career. They knew that somewhere out there was an opportunity for them to gain the success they always dreamed of. They're Grammy winners, selling millions of records, not because they're the best singers, They just knew that somewhere out there was the opportunity they dreamed of. They kept trying until they found it. The first thing in getting to your somewhere, you can't be content and stay where you are. Sometimes you got to exit out of your old ways in order to get to the entrance of somewhere else. When are you going to finally admit that you don't want to keep living the way you have and that you want more for your life? Once you admit it, then you can accept it more. You will start to see the more in you. You will start to see the real value in you. Somewhere out there is purpose that's going to elevate you and your life. Somewhere out there is a life-changing experience that you're going to encounter if you stay faithful to the process when it comes to your dreams and desires. The reason you're not getting anywhere in life is because you are sitting in the wrong seat. You are either in the back seat or in the passenger seat. but you're supposed to be in the driver's seat. That's the only way you're going to get somewhere. Quit letting everything and everybody drive you. Drive yourself. You're the one know where you're trying to go in life. They don't. You're the one who has the clear vision for your life. They don't. And when your vision is clear, it becomes much easier to make better decisions for your life. It's time for you to gain traction. that will make your dreams and desires a reality. The more you go towards it, the more you're going to be able to see it. It took me years to finally start doing the things that I was meant to do. It took me years to start walking in my purpose and doing the things I desired for my life. I should have been walking in who God created me to be over 15 years ago, but I decided I wanted to do other things. That's why it took me so long. Do you know how further along I would be if I was obedient 15 years ago and did what I was meant to do? Waiting is only going to set you back. I often hear people say that they are waiting for the right time. Get that out of your head. The minute you know what you want for your life is the time you start going for it. Because what you desire is out there somewhere. You just got to take a chance on you. You got to believe in you. The biggest regret you'll end up having is the chances you didn't take. See, what's deflating you is not being where you want to be in life right now. But you got to keep moving forward and quit searching for comfort. Great things, amazing things have never came from comfort. They birthed through pain and sacrifice. I need you to understand that somewhere out there is a day that's going to change your life. I need you to believe that. And don't be scared of the unknown. Go get to know the unknown. After all, there is so much unknown stuff about you that you don't even know. There is so much greatness inside of you that hasn't been revealed yet. It's time for you to unleash that part of you. You probably are saying, Reginald D., where is that part of me? It's somewhere inside of you. Search for it, and then you will find it. And once you find it, don't let go of it, because your life was meant to be great. You were given a task of greatness because you are strong enough to handle it. The best thing you can do is learn what you're capable of. That's your strength. That's part of your dream. Just stay faithful and watch God connect you with the right people. There's somebody out there somewhere searching for what you have to offer. I'm going to leave you with this. I need you to take the time to finally be who you desire to be. Work on the life that you desire and don't be afraid of the obstacles that it's going to take to get there. It's that way your purpose has a higher calling. Stick to the vision and trust the process because somewhere out there is what you desire for your life. You just got to keep going after it. You got to keep hunting until you find it. And remember, the more you seek it, the sooner you will find it. Thanks for tuning in to Real Talk with Reginald D.
