1. 0:10If today was my last day,
2. 0:12my last chance to give a message to a loved one
3. 0:14I would like to talk to them about
4. 0:15making their dreams come true
5. 0:16through the story of a person looking after his tree.
6. 0:20"Imagine a tree, small and weak.
7. 0:23Anything could happen to it...
8. 0:25It might die during a storm,
9. 0:28or due to a lack of water or it might even die
10. 0:30as a result of this person's mistakes...
11. 0:32So why should this person look after it
12. 0:34if nothing guarantees that it will one day become a great tree?
13. 0:37Just as this person was wondering about his tree,
14. 0:40we wonder if it is worth the effort to believe
15. 0:42and move towards our uncertain dreams?
16. 0:44Sometimes we are afraid, afraid of failing,
17. 0:46of being criticized, of being rejected.
18. 0:48And for these reasons we do not dare.
19. 0:50We let years go by waiting for the right circumstances
20. 0:55We would rather make up excuses for ourselves
21. 0:57than dare to believe in our dreams.
22. 0:58The excuse of not having the right body, the right childhood,
23. 1:01the right parents, the right intelligence,
24. 1:03the excuse that it's too hard, that some have already tried and failed...
25. 1:07But you know, TAKING RISKS TO FAIL IS...
26. 1:09Taking chances to learn, taking chances to be proud of oneself,
27. 1:13taking chances to be happy, and maybe to even succeed
28. 1:17Now back to this tree: it's true,
29. 1:19this person is not guaranteed to succeed.
30. 1:21However, if he crushes the tree HIMSELF, the story ends here.
31. 1:25It is guaranteed that he won't MAKE IT.
32. 1:28"If we crush our dreams ourselves, there’s no chance left in fulfilling them."
33. 1:32I cannot assure you that you will succeed
34. 1:34by believing and daring.
35. 1:35But I can guarantee you will fail if you stop believing.
36. 1:39So why not go for it?
37. 1:41I know there is this little voice inside your head whispering "You can do it".
38. 1:46And historically many men and women have listened to this voice:
39. 1:51"He was cut from his basketball team and seen as not good enough,
40. 1:53Michael Jordan
41. 1:54He was rejected from film school 3 times,
42. 1:57Steven Spielberg
43. 1:58Fired from a newspaper for not being creative enough,
44. 2:01Walt Disney
45. 2:02She was turned down 30 times and told her book
46. 2:05did not have what it takes to make a great book, J.K Rowling
47. 2:08His voice teachers discouraged him from singing,
48. 2:11saying he neither had the height, nor the voice,
49. 2:13nor the knowledge, Charles Aznavour (French singer)"
50. 2:15I do not mean to say that because they believed in it
51. 2:18they did it, but that if they had crushed their dreams
52. 2:20we wouldn’t even know their names.
53. 2:23"Sometimes we do not work towards the achievement
54. 2:26of our dreams because we think it is just too big,
55. 2:28that results will never come or long overdue.
56. 2:30This thinking though overlooks the daily gifts
57. 2:33and rewards of each display of courage."
58. 2:35The purpose of a dream is not only for it
59. 2:37to be fulfilled but for us to feel fulfilled as well.
60. 2:40We can lose our money, our job,
61. 2:42everything we own but we CANNOT LOSE...
62. 2:43the person we have become.
63. 2:45What is worth
64. 2:46becoming the person you are today?
65. 2:48The ability to become the person you deserve to be tomorrow, what is that worth?
66. 2:54A study disrupted me, it was conducted by Bronnie Ware in an Australian hospital
67. 2:57it involved patients in palliative care.
68. 2:59So many of them had regrets: not for the things they did but for those they didn't do,
69. 3:04the risks they didn't take, the dreams they didn't take chances on.
70. 3:07On the last day of your life, who do you want to be?
71. 3:10The person who trampled their tree by fear of failure or the one who may not have
72. 3:14succeeded but can look in a mirror or their children straight in the eyes and say
73. 3:18with tears of gratitude : "I am proud of myself."
74. 3:21When you say YES to your dreams, you inspire the ones you love
75. 3:24to give a chance to their own dreams.
76. 3:26I know that in your past, there was at least one person who managed to
77. 3:30inspire you and made you eager to move on.
78. 3:32Today we have the opportunity to become that person ourselves for someone else.
79. 3:37Tell me, how much is that worth?
80. 3:39So yes, we might have smashed some of our trees but all the others are still waiting for us.
81. 3:44Since we cannot tell if our dreams are possible or not, why not act as if everything is possible?
82. 3:50Not because it’s easy or even difficult but simply because the primary aim of our dreams
83. 3:55is not its fulfillment, but its power to make us feel alive and to give us purpose,
84. 3:58RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW.
85. 4:01We all have a choice today, we can take a chance on a dream, we can choose to believe in it
86. 4:06to nurture it, we can choose to take action.
87. 4:09So give your dreams a chance only because maybe it is possible...
88. 4:13and whatever happens you will be proud of yourself.
89. 4:20Many people at the end of their life
90. 4:23regret things
91. 4:25they have not done
92. 4:28And you,
93. 4:29Will you wait the last day of your life ?
