Let's do it. Isn't it funny that we as humans put more energy and dwelling in our worst days or our worst times in our life? In all reality, your worst times are behind you. Your worst days is nothing but your past. That's all it is. Your past should not have that much power over you to the point that you dwell on it more than you dwell on your dreams and purpose. I need you to know that your worst days was designed particularly for you. You had to go through them in order to put your mind in positions to walk into your best days. See, it was all a setup for you. Why do you think that no matter how hard you try, it seems like things are not happening for you. It seems like things are getting worse. But I need you to understand that this is part of the process in getting you to the best days of your life. You have to go through your worst days in order to earn the best days of your life. Your worst days are not meant to bring you pain. It's designed to bring you experience. You just take it and automatically turn it into pain because that's the way you receive it. But in all reality, your worst days should be giving you lessons to empower you to walk into your best days. I need you to stop giving up every time something comes against you. That's when you keep fighting. Because the ties are about to turn in your life. Your best days are ahead of you. If it wasn't for your worst days, you would never accomplish anything. Because your worst day supposed to motivate you to go after your best days. It should motivate you to go out to your dreams and your desires even harder. The only way you realize what a good day is, you have to have bad days. You are the champion of your life. No matter what you come up against in life, you can't be defeated unless you surrender and give up. Do you know that people will use your worst days and worst experiences to identify you? But I need you to understand that your best days are here to show you your true identity. Don't allow your past to be the handcuff for your future. Stop worrying about your past that's behind you. Your best days and the best you are ahead of you. Your best days are beyond your imagination. Whatever your best days look like to you, it's better than that. It's better than you can ever imagine. God said he would do exceedingly and abundantly. Above all that we can ask or think according to the power that works in us. So you got the power within you. You just got to put in the work if you want to be blessed exceedingly and abundantly. That's it, man. I need you to understand that you don't have failures in life. You have redirections in life. When things don't go as planned, you just got to figure out another plan to achieve what you set out to achieve. Never be in fear when it comes to being successful in life. The only time you should be in fear is when you stop trying. When you start doubting your ability, you will forfeit the best days that's ahead of you. Don't despise small beginnings. I remember when I was laid off my job some years ago. I was struggling, trying to make ends meet. I only had eggs to eat. I ate eggs for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I was applying for jobs everywhere, but no luck. Then I went to this temp agency and the lady said, they really didn't have anything for me. So as I was walking out the door, the other lady said, wait a minute, I do have one thing. She said that the Salvation army needed someone to help in the kitchen and serve food and unload and put away the food that was donated. I took it because I needed the money. It was only minimum wage. So as I'm working there, I started having conversations with the people that lived in that shelter. I was speaking life into them because a lot of them were suffering or recovering from addiction. Then the next thing I know, the guy that was running the facility came to me and said that he wanted to pull me out of the kitchen and basically wanted me to be the motivational speaker and life coach to the people on that campus. I started doing it, and the next thing I know, I'm beginning speaking engagements at other places. That's how my motivational speaking started. It started from the kitchen and serving food at the Salvation Army. See, it doesn't matter where you are right now. It's all about where you're going. Make the best of every opportunity, no matter how Small. When you start making the best of your opportunities, that's when your best days will arise and become your reality. You got to understand that you are a flicker that has the potential to turn into a mighty flame. Your worst days are behind you and your best days are ahead of you. You just got to be the best on your worst days. You got to have the get it done mentality about yourself. I need you to do this. Go look in the mirror and make a get it done facial expression. Whatever that looks like to you. You can do the one eyebrow up and one eyebrow down. You can squint your eyes. Whatever facial expression that tells you to get it done. Now once you come up with it, I need you to look in the mirror every time you feel overwhelmed or defeated and make your facial expression that tells you to get it done. I need you to know that the greatness of your life far exceeds the circumstances of your day. It's because there is a plan for your life. Don't you know that you deserve the best days of your life? You deserve that. So if you deserve it, why not go after it? It's yours for the taking. It's all about what you expect and what you do. Those two things will help capitalize on what you're trying to accomplish. Just don't lack faith and keep the vision. Do you know that your brain creates visions that you can't obtain? You wouldn't even think about it if you couldn't obtain it or were not capable of achieving it. The human brain works that way. See, big things don't happen in your life because you're steady making small decisions. It's time to make the right decisions. When it comes to your dreams and goals. Make sure your decisions line up with your vision. It's time for you to recover and regain. Gain back everything that you lost. Gain your strength back, gain your focus back and gain your determination back. That's how you turn your worst days into your best days. I need you to know, no matter how worse it seems right now, there is a new day coming that's filled with new opportunities. It's all about what you do in your worst moments. I'm going to leave you with this. No matter how bad things get, there is something good in every day. You just got to take a closer look. Goodness does shine through. It's all about what you think in your mind and heart. Your best days can be attained if you make sure your surroundings are good. Remember, your worst days are behind you and your best days are ahead of you. You just got to get there.
