Denzel Washington Motivational Speech

Denzel Washington Motivational Speech

I listened to the speech and picked up some quotes that will definetly motivate me. I want to share it with you.

First one: Don’t be afraid to fail. That’s very powerful and I like it, because if you don’t take risks and doon’t fail then wehere’s the point? I’d rather to try something and fail then never try and regret it. Failures teach us most important lessons in our life and they make us strong.

Dreams without goals are just dreams. It’s so true. Yes, dreaming is good, but when you don’t have goals there’s no point. I have dreams and goals and I’m going to chase them, because nobody will do it for me. One motivational quote that I heard from my friend is Sacrifice everything for your dream, but never sacrifice your dream. And I love it so much. It doesn’t matter how many times you will fail or not succed it matters how many times you’ll get up and continue what you’ve been doing.

One thing I can say life is a game. They are failures and successes. You need to live for yourself and be the person you want to be, do what you want to do, be with who you want to be with, wear what you want to wear. And I promise you that you’ll be happier than ever.

Scientists and doctors can’t make their minds up about coffee. One study says it’s really bad for us and the next report says it’s good for us. I’ve even read that 10 cups a day is good for our brain. I like a cup of coffee at certain times of the day. I must have a coffee first thing in the morning. I can’t survive without my morning coffee. I have another cup or two when I get to work. And that’s it. I never drink coffee after lunchtime. If I do, I can’t sleep at night. The only time I drink coffee in the evening is if I go to a nice restaurant. Coffee seems a lot more complicated these days. When I was younger it was just coffee. Now it’s latte, frappucino and all kinds of other strange words.
