3 Greatest

Motivational Speeches

My list of the 3 greatest motivational speeches of all time … along with my take-aways as a person with the imagination and goal to build a “machine” to protect the environment of life on earth.

#1 This choice will surprise you. I don’t find him inspirational. But he might just be though the most motivated human being to ever have lived.

Takeaways: No Plan B. Ok to fail, but you cannot have a Plan B. NO PLAN B.

#2 This choice will not surprise you.

Takeaways: You will die. Russia will launch a nuclear attack, you will get covid or cancer, or you will just die of old age … whatever it is … you will die soon. Remember this everyday. Smile at it. Let it motivate what you do with your precious little time on earth.

#3 This choice should not surprise you.

Takeaways: J.K. Rowling focuses only two. Just two. Only two factors that are important. Just two. 1. Failure. 2. Imagination.

Summary of 3 Speeches:

1. No plan B.
2. Going to die.
3. Fail. Imagine.

---“Choosing to live in narrow spaces leads to a form of mental agoraphobia, and that brings its own terrors. I think the willfully unimaginative see more monsters. They are often more afraid. […] What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.”

—JK Rowling
