Burn The Boats (feat. Russell Brunson)

Burn the boats. It's fly or die, gentlemen Sink or swim. We either take this island or we die No surrendering, no retreating. The only way we go home is on our enemy's ships It's easy to give up when you have a way out. Burn the boats. Burn your excuses Burn your fears and insecurities. Burn your doubts and lack of confidence Success is your only option. Failure's not So many of you, I know this, I've gone through this as well, you're out there You're trying, and you've got people who want you to fail People you love who just want you to go back to normal life They want you to live a normal life And as you're trying to do things beyond yourself, people want you to fail I think we understand this This is something that's got me through so many times It's not a bad thing to fail It's a gift that we have to go fail, to learn, to grow And if we keep doing it, we'll become who we need to be When your back's against the wall, that's when you find out what you're really made of It's in the dark moments when your light shines brightest It's under enormous pressure that coal is turned into a diamond It's insurmountable odds that cause men and women to rise to the challenge The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be What you do today matters. The actions you take every day matter The path to success is not convenient. It's easy to stay in bed and watch TV But there is no instant life or microwaved dreams Life is not some clickable link, and there's no such thing as an overnight success Gold medals aren't really made of gold They're made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts And I think coming back to this understanding that gold medals are not made of gold They're made of all the stuff you put in to earn it So if you really want to get those things, you want the gold medals You want the records, you want the prize, you want the money You want the whatever you're driving forces You understand that that's what's made of the blood, sweat, determination Everyone starts somewhere. I started with zero followers Subscribers, fans, and ideas I spent five years honing my craft as a songwriter Rejected, disappointed, show after show Song after song, before I finally had any success Which was halfway across the globe in Japan It took another five years before I ever got recognized in my own country So yeah, overnight success, ten years in the making Championships aren't won in the ring with lights and a cheering crowd They're won in solitude, training in the gym Day after day, rep after rep when no one's looking During a lot of times in my life where things have been down And hard and I've been struggling I turned to Churchill so many times And this is one of my favorite quotes talking about the war He said, we have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering You ask, what is our policy? I will say it's to wage war by sea By land, by air, with all of our might With all of our strength that God has given us. That is our policy You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. Victory. Victory at all costs Victory in spite of all terror. Victory however long and hard the road may be I think for all of you guys who are out there who are trying to be successful It's not going to be easy. You have many long months of struggle and suffering What is your aim? It's victory. Victory at all costs
