1. 0:00Success is achieved by those who work
2. 0:02for themselves. Meaning, there must be
3. 0:04self-mastery of the individual. I hold
4. 0:06myself, I push myself, moving, always
5. 0:10moving.
6. 0:10>> Do you have a dream you haven't
7. 0:12realized yet?
8. 0:13>> There shouldn't be any dreams. It’s
9. 0:15all nonsense. They fill children's
10. 0:17heads with dreams, ideas, love. None of
11. 0:19that exists. There is only regular
12. 0:21daily work
13. 0:22>> and that's it. Small successes and big
14. 0:25failures await each of us in life.
15. 0:27Understood? And there's no need to
16. 0:28invent anything. Therefore, everything
17. 0:30will come, everything will work out,
18. 0:32success will come. Man is the most
19. 0:35powerful being. Don't push anyone,
20. 0:38don't shove, don't try to harm anyone.
21. 0:42Calmly, move along slowly. Slowly, but
22. 0:45keep moving, and success will surely
23. 0:48come, and everything will be fine.
24. 0:51>> I ask everyone to live in a positive
25. 0:54format. If a close relative has died,
26. 0:56that's it, they won't return. No need
27. 0:58to cry, it’s useless. If you got
28. 1:01fired from your job, well, we'll find
29. 1:03you a job, we'll help. There. Meaning,
30. 1:06no one should ever despair. Spouses
31. 1:08split up, well, take a break from each
32. 1:10other. Friends, children, parents
33. 1:13quarreled. Meaning, uh, live in a
34. 1:16positive format always. Always wishing
35. 1:21health, happiness, love—it’s all
36. 1:24nonsense. None of that exists. But help
37. 1:27, let's help each other. And the reason
38. 1:30for success is to do what you do best.
39. 1:34Sports don't work out, forget it. Can't
40. 1:37play cards, forget it. Can't play the
41. 1:39accordion, forget it. Don't need
42. 1:41languages, don't waste your time. What
43. 1:44do you excel at? Do that. When a person
44. 1:48is very smart, sensible, everything
45. 1:51seems fine, but they forget the main
46. 1:54thing: you must show yourself, because
47. 1:57life is a catwalk. You must strut, just
48. 2:01like they do at fashion shows and so on
49. 2:03. If you are silent, and everyone is
50. 2:07silent, you're an orphan in Moscow.
51. 2:10There. Others have a general for a
52. 2:12father, a father in the Central
53. 2:13Committee, a deputy minister. They were
54. 2:16all around me, and they achieved
55. 2:18nothing. So, if someone wants to become
56. 2:22a big person, if their father is
57. 2:24spoiled, they will become no one.
58. 2:28Therefore, you need doping. In sports,
59. 2:30it's doping, and in social life, the
60. 2:32doping is persistence. Persistence. And
61. 2:35go everywhere yourself, break through
62. 2:37everywhere yourself. You will be
63. 2:39noticed only if you perform. If you are
64. 2:42silent, no one needs you. I performed
65. 2:45everywhere. I caught myself thinking
66. 2:48that it would be good to go to
67. 2:50university at 40. Well, who would go to
68. 2:53study at 40, when you have a family, to
69. 2:55choose a profession, because sometimes
70. 2:56you lack knowledge. Not because you
71. 2:59haven't acquired it. A huge body of
72. 3:01knowledge is needed. To compare eras,
73. 3:04compare mistakes, and provide an
74. 3:05analysis of it all. This is knowledge
75. 3:09management. You see, the problem here
76. 3:12is—what is it? You don't know which
77. 3:15knowledge will be useful to you. How am
78. 3:18I different from you? It's not that I'm
79. 3:20extraordinary, but I need to know
80. 3:22everything. That’s this global motive
81. 3:27. I am forced to deal with everything.
82. 3:31>> But you want to do nothing. "I’m
83. 3:34non-partisan, I lack initiative, I’m
84. 3:36just an employee." I showed up, I get
85. 3:3818,000. There. "Give me everything that
86. 3:40exists in the world." No one is going
87. 3:41to give you anything. Go into politics,
88. 3:43go into business. But as an employee,
89. 3:47of course, you'll be getting 18,000 for
90. 3:49a long time, then 25, then 35, and then
91. 3:51you'll be old, sick, and won't
92. 3:53experience much joy. After all, there
93. 3:55isn't "everything." Who lives well in
94. 3:57America? Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs, Bill
95. 4:00Gates. Do you really think all of
96. 4:02America lives well? Everywhere, some
97. 4:04people rise to the top, others fall. If
98. 4:08you want to achieve success, get into a
99. 4:10creative process, sports, science,
100. 4:12politics. But the ordinary Akaky
101. 4:15Akakievich—under the Tsar, under
102. 4:17Soviet power, and now—goes to work at
103. 4:199:00, leaves at 6:00, and the salary is
104. 4:21just enough to survive, paycheck to
105. 4:24paycheck. My happiest day was December
106. 4:2812, 1993. The LDPR victory. I was
107. 4:31simply ecstatic. The Kremlin, the
108. 4:33banquet hall, the entire political
109. 4:35elite. And they announce the results.
110. 4:38Kamchatka, LDPR, Primorye, LDPR—the
111. 4:40whole country voted for the LDPR. That
112. 4:44was true happiness, that I had lived
113. 4:47those 47 years and accumulated the
114. 4:50information that helped me become the
115. 4:53leader of the party that won the first
116. 4:56elections to Russia's first free
117. 4:59parliament. Staying in the middle, not
118. 5:02veering to the extremes. What allowed
119. 5:04me that was my lack of hatred for
120. 5:06people. I understood that the poor
121. 5:09aren't to blame for being poor, the
122. 5:11rich aren't to blame for being rich,
123. 5:13but I also wanted to acquire something.
124. 5:16And I wanted to get into your institute
125. 5:20. So, I sent a letter to the
126. 5:22vice-rector for...I don't know, it
127. 5:25reached a vice-rector, anyway, one who
128. 5:27deals with dormitories. The reply: "
129. 5:30Everything is fine with the institute."
130. 5:32And a line: "The institute does not
131. 5:34provide housing." I thought, how can I
132. 5:36go to a strange city, Moscow? That is,
133. 5:39deception. That was the first time
134. 5:42Moscow hit me with deception. Then I
135. 5:44arrive and find out, there is a
136. 5:45dormitory. But they sent such letters
137. 5:49to out-of-towners so they wouldn't come
138. 5:50, because MGIMO cannot distribute them
139. 5:52throughout the country. That's only for
140. 5:55the MID. Work abroad. If he doesn't
141. 5:57have a residence permit, where do you
142. 5:58put him? He graduates, leaves the MGIMO
143. 6:02dorm. And where does he go after that?
144. 6:03He has to go out onto the street. But
145. 6:04there is no need to deceive. I was poor
146. 6:06, I was freezing, I was cold, I had no
147. 6:08apartment, nothing at all. They drafted
148. 6:10me into the army alone. The whole class
149. 6:12got jobs at the Foreign Ministry,
150. 6:13abroad, but Zhirinovsky went to the
151. 6:15army. Do you think I enjoyed that? It
152. 6:17was like being exiled. Go on. But he
153. 6:19could be treated that way, because he
154. 6:21had no family, no connections. Who is
155. 6:22he, this pauper? Who is he anyway? This
156. 6:25all happened 30 years ago. And I
157. 6:27graduated with honors. I was an honors
158. 6:28student, and they sent me to the army.
159. 6:30Those guys spent 6 years drinking while
160. 6:32working abroad. They were diplomats.
161. 6:34And what cultivates perseverance? A
162. 6:37person is most persistent when they are
163. 6:39poor and hungry; when they are full,
164. 6:41they do nothing, everything is handed
165. 6:43to them. A snack here, a buffet there,
166. 6:45money, let’s go, the disco, a car,
167. 6:47dad, mom, summer houses—a person
168. 6:49perishes in all this. When a person has
169. 6:52everything, they perish. That is why,
170. 6:54uh, poor people who are deprived of
171. 6:57everything are the real heroes. I mean,
172. 7:00they fight for themselves, they want to
173. 7:02accomplish something, but when you have
174. 7:03everything, what is there to fight for?
175. 7:05That is the key to success. Be open, be
176. 7:09bold, don't be naive, know how to
177. 7:12listen. If someone is speaking, "Don't
178. 7:15interrupt them." If a person is wrong,
179. 7:17say: "Well, I have a different position
180. 7:18." Don't tell them they're a fool. They
181. 7:21might be a fool, sure. But don't tell
182. 7:22them, because no one is truly a fool.
183. 7:24All people are smart; they just have a
184. 7:26different opinion. And he knows which
185. 7:28footballer went where and when. Meaning
186. 7:30, he has been following football his
187. 7:32whole life. Retirement age comes, and
188. 7:34he squeals: "The pension is so small,"
189. 7:36but you spent it all at the stadium.
190. 7:38What were you doing your whole life?
191. 7:39Stadium, stadium, stadium. That's it.
192. 7:42Others go fishing. That's it. Ice
193. 7:45fishing, sitting by a hole in the ice,
194. 7:47pulling out these tiny little things.
195. 7:51And then, "Oh, the utility bill arrived
196. 7:53, I don't have any money." What did you
197. 7:55do with your life? You were catching
198. 7:57this filth that you can't even fry in a
199. 7:59pan. It’ll all burn to hell anyway.
200. 8:01So, a person should take a look at
201. 8:03their own lifestyle. What kind of
202. 8:05library do I have? The largest in the
203. 8:08world. 10,000 volumes. Who else has
204. 8:11that? Nobody reacts. But how much beer
205. 8:14have you drunk? Please.
206. 8:15>> I lived. I had a scholarship, in
207. 8:19today's money it's an increased one,
208. 8:21about 42, that's 4,000, and mom sent
209. 8:24three. So, 7,000. 7,000. Like that. It
210. 8:30was little in that money, 42.50, and,
211. 8:33uh, the regular one was 35 rubles. Of
212. 8:38course, it was little, but the thought
213. 8:41never crossed my mind to go unload
214. 8:43freight cars at night. Depot Moscow,
215. 8:47sorting depot, but some people did. I
216. 8:50never had any thought of going to a
217. 8:52construction site during summer break
218. 8:54to earn money. I only studied, because
219. 8:59I understood that the greatest wealth
220. 9:01is your knowledge. You earned some
221. 9:04money, but what about it...what did you
222. 9:06actually learn? There is no further
223. 9:07knowledge beyond that. You won't be a
224. 9:10bricklayer or a street cleaner, yet
225. 9:12your head didn't earn anything in terms
226. 9:14of intellect.
