Do You Need a Pep Talk?

After seeing this video literally shared over and over on my Facebook newsfeed, I finally decided to click on the video and watch. Can I just say, I am so glad I did. The best three minutes of my day! I take that back, 12 minutes, as I have since watched the video 4 times. Yes 4 times and each time I both laughed and cried! If you need a pep talk, and who doesn’t every now and again, watch this video. I hope it inspires you as it did me!

A Pep Talk from Kid President to You!

I think we all need a pep talk.

The world needs you to stop being boring. Yeah, you! Boring is easy. Everybody can be boring. But you’re gooder than that.

Life is not a game people. Life isn’t a cereal either. Well, it is a cereal. And if life is a game, aren’t we all on the same team. I mean really, right?

I’m on your team, you’re on my team. This is life people, you got air coming through your nose, you got a heartbeat. That means it’s time to do something.

A poem. Two roads diverged in the woods… and I took the road less travelled. AND IT HURT, MAN! Really bad. ROCKS! THORNS! And GLASS!  NOT COOL ROBERT FROST.

But what if there really were two paths. I want to be on the one that leads to awesome.

It’s like the dude, Journey said, “Don’t stop believing.” Unless your dream is stupid. Then you should get a better dream. I think that’s how it goes.

Get a better dream and keep going, keep going, keep going and keep going.

What if Michael Jordan had quit? Well he did quit, no he retired, yeah yes, he retired. But before that, in high school, what if he quit when he didn’t make the team? He would have never made Space Jam and I love Space Jam.

What would be your Space Jam? What will you create to make the world awesome? Nothing if you keep sitting there. That’s why I’m talking to you today.

This is your time. This is my time. It’s our time. We can make everyday better for each other, if we’re on the same team let’s start acting like it. We got work to do. We can cry about it or we can dance about it.

We were made to be awesome!

Let’s get out there.

I don’t know everything, I’m just a kid. But I know this, it’s everybody’s duty to give the world a reason to dance. So get to it.

You’ve just been pep talked.

Create something that will make the world awesome.

Play ball.

I’m dedicating this video today to my friend Gabbi she’s a cool kid, she likes playing games and she’s fighting cancer. LIKE A BOSS!

And to all you who are watching, WHO ENCOURAGES YOU? Send them this video and let them know!
