Welcome everyone. Today you and I are
going to destroy one of the biggest
problems in this world.
Small thinking. Because most people are
not stuck because of money or language
or luck. They're stuck because of one
thing. They think too small. They don't
dream big. They don't speak big. They
don't believe in big possibilities.
And that's why their life feels limited,
like they're trapped inside a small room
with the door wide open, but they don't
walk out.
This video will break that wall. It will
rewire your brain to think big, speak
big, and live big, no matter where you
are right now. And if you're here to
learn English, this video will also help
you speak English like someone who
belongs on the world stage. So before we
begin, if you're serious about changing
your mindset, improving your English,
and building a bigger future,
subscribe right now. This is not just a
motivational video. This is a
transformation session, and it starts
now. Lesson one, believe you can succeed
and you will. Let me ask you a question.
What if the only reason you haven't
succeeded yet is because you don't fully
believe you can? You see, most people
think success starts with skills, but it
doesn't. Success starts with belief.
Belief is the engine behind everything.
It's what tells your brain, "Wake up
early. Push a little harder. Try again
even when you fail. Speak even when your
voice is shaking.
Start even if no one believes in you
yet. If you believe you can succeed,
your brain starts looking for the path.
But if you doubt yourself, your brain
gives up before you even begin. Let me
tell you something powerful.
There are people in this world with less
education, less talent, less opportunity
than you. And they're succeeding.
Why? because they believe they can. And
there are people with more degrees, more
support, more resources who are failing
because deep inside they doubt themselves.
themselves.
Let me give you a story. A young man
named Idris wanted to start a YouTube
channel. He had no camera. His English
wasn't perfect. His accent was strong.
He didn't even have a laptop. He edited
videos on his phone. But he had one
thing most people didn't. He believed it
was possible. He said, "I may be small
now, but one day the world will listen
to my voice." He uploaded one video,
then another, then 30, then 100. After a
year of hard work, not much happened,
but he kept going. Why? Because he
believed. By the second year, his
channel exploded. He was invited to
speak at events. The same events where
he used to be a volunteer.
What changed? Not his luck, not his
accent, not his tools. His belief became
his fuel. So if you want to think big,
start here. Start by believing you can
do big things. Not next year, not when
you're rich, not when your English is perfect.
perfect.
Right now. Say it with me out loud. I
believe I can do more. I believe I can
grow. I believe I can succeed. And I
will. Lesson two. Give yourself big
goals, not small survival. Most people
are not living. They're just surviving.
They wake up. They eat. They scroll.
They go to work. They come home tired.
And they do it again and again and
again. But here's the shocking part.
They're not tired because life is hard.
They're tired because they're chasing
small goals that don't excite them. They
have no fire, no vision, just a list of
to-dos and a life of routine.
Let me tell you the difference between a
small goal and a big one. A small goal
says, "I just want enough money to pay
my bills." A big goal says, "I want to
build something that gives me freedom
and helps others, too."
A small goal says, "I hope I speak a
little English someday."
A big goal says, "I will become a global
communicator. I will speak clearly,
powerfully, and confidently."
A small goal says, "I hope I get through
this month." A big goal says, "I'm
building the next 5 years with purpose
and direction."
Example, there was a man who worked at a
cement factory, 12 hours a day, covered
in dust, earning just enough to survive,
maybe $400 a month, not enough to build,
not enough to breathe. Everyone around
him talked about the same things. Pain,
bills, stress, exhaustion. No one talked
about growth. No one talked about the
future, just survival.
But one night, he sat alone on the edge
of his bed. And something inside him
snapped, not in anger, but in clarity.
He looked at his hands, dry, cracked,
tired. He looked at his life stuck and
he whispered to himself, "This can't be
it. I was not born just to survive. I
was born to build." He didn't have a
business plan. He didn't have
connections. He didn't have savings. But
he had a decision. From the next
morning, he started waking up 1 hour
earlier. Not to go to work, but to build
his brain.
While others slept, he was listening to
business podcasts.
He started learning about real estate.
He cut every unnecessary expense. He
saved $2 a day, even when it hurt. He
stopped talking about the problem and
started studying the solution. He became
a ghost. No parties, no distractions, no noise.
noise.
For three years, he disappeared into
discipline. And then
he didn't just leave the cement factory.
He bought the land next to it and
started a brick manufacturing business.
The same people who once laughed at his
quietness were now filling out job
applications with his name on the top of
the form. He didn't win by luck. He won
by thinking bigger than his situation.
while others asked, "How do I survive
this week?" He asked, "What can I build
in the next 5 years?" That's the power
of giving yourself a goal bigger than
your life. Not a safe goal, not a
someday goal, but a goal so big, it
pulls you out of your old world. You
don't rise because someone gives you a
chance. You rise because your mind
becomes bigger than your environment.
And once your mind expands,
your life has no choice but to follow.
Here's what most people don't realize.
Small goals make you tired. Big goals
make you alive. So ask yourself today,
are your goals exciting or just safe?
Are you building your dream or just
surviving the month? Stop setting goals
based on your fear. Start setting goals
based on your future. Because if you aim
low, you'll live low. But if you aim
high, even if you fail, your life rises.
Say it with me. I don't want to survive.
I want to build. I will set bold goals
and I will become the person who can
reach them. Lesson three. You become
what you think. Your life is a mirror.
Whatever you think about most becomes
your world. If you always think, "I'm
not good enough. I'm not confident.
My English is terrible."
Success is not for people like me.
Then your brain will find ways to prove
you right. It will shut down your
effort. It will delete your courage. It
will block your ideas because it's
following your thoughts. But if you feed
your brain with I'm learning faster
every day. I'm becoming more powerful. I
belong in big places. I speak with confidence.
confidence.
Then your brain also starts working to
prove that right. Let me give you a
powerful example. Two students, same
age, same background learning English.
One keeps saying, "I'm not good at
speaking. I'm always nervous. I forget
words. The other one says, "I'm
learning. I'm improving. I'm not
perfect, but I'm growing fast."
Guess who improves faster? The one who
feeds their brain growth, not self-pity.
Your brain listens to you. It doesn't
care whether your words are positive or
negative. It just follows instructions.
So, if you keep thinking weak, you
become weak. But if you think strong,
you become unstoppable.
Here's what you must remember. Your
thoughts are not small. They are
building your future. Every sentence you
repeat in your mind is shaping the
person you're becoming.
So stop thinking like a failure. Stop
thinking like a victim. Stop thinking
like someone who doesn't deserve more.
Instead, train your mind like this.
I am in control of my life. I'm not who
I was. I'm better. My mind is getting
stronger every day.
Because you're not just thinking. You're
programming your future. Say this with
me. I will guard my thoughts. I will
feed my mind strength, clarity, and courage.
courage.
I will think big, and I will live even
bigger. Lesson four. Think like a leader
even before you become one. The world
doesn't give power to people who wait.
It gives power to people who act like
leaders before they are one. If you walk
like a follower, if you talk like a
follower, if you think like a follower,
then don't expect life to treat you like
a leader. Leadership is not a position.
It's a decision. It's a choice you make
when nobody's watching. A standard you
set when nobody believes in you. A
mindset you carry when nothing is going
your way. You want success.
Then stop asking for permission. Stop
waiting for someone to say you're ready.
No one's coming. No one will hand you
the crown. You become a leader the
moment you start thinking like one.
Leaders don't waste time proving
themselves to small minds.
They don't beg for attention. They don't
complain about circumstances.
They focus on the mission, not the mood.
They move with purpose. They speak with
strength. They act like the future is
already theirs because in their mind, it
already is. So stop thinking like the
person you were trained to be. Start
thinking like the person you were born
to become.
No more someday. No more maybe. Start
thinking like a leader now and your life
will rise to match your thoughts. Lesson
five. Use big, positive, powerful words.
Words are not just communication. Words
are energy. Words are instructions you
give to your mind. And every time you
speak, you're either lifting your life
or lowering it. Small words shrink your
future. Weak words kill your confidence.
Negative words poison your direction.
And the worst part, most people don't
even realize they're doing it. They say
things like, "I can't. I'm tired. I
don't know. I'll try. I'm not sure. It's
too hard and they wonder why life feels
heavy, slow, and directionless.
Change your words and you change the way
your brain sees the world. Winners speak
with power. They say, "I will. I'm
ready. I'll figure it out. This is
possible. I'm built for this. I have
what it takes. Not because it's fake,
but because they know. The energy you
send out through your words becomes the
energy that runs your life. You don't
need better motivation.
You don't need another plan. You just
need to upgrade your vocabulary.
Speak with strength. Speak with
direction. Speak with certainty. Stop
using words that belong to your past.
Start using words that belong to your future.
future.
From this moment forward, no more soft
speech, no more weak language, no more
talking like your life is small. Speak
like your dream is already on its way.
Speak like your mind is unstoppable.
Speak like your destiny is waking up.
Lesson six. Excusitis is the real
failure disease.
Excusitis is not just a habit. It's a
system of self-sabotage built inside the
mind. Think of a high performance
machine. It's capable of great speed,
power, and results. But if one line of
faulty code keeps telling the system,
"Stop. It's too risky. You can't handle
that load. The machine shuts down." Not
because it's weak, but because it was
programmed to obey hesitation.
That's what excuses do. They act like
small lines of bad code in your mental
system. They quietly lower your speed,
reduce your action, and disable your
momentum. You say, "It's not the right
time. I'll wait until I'm ready. Others
are better than me. My situation is
different." And each of those thoughts
becomes a block in your progress pipeline.
pipeline.
Excuses don't protect you. They trap
you. They create a comfortable cage.
Soft from the inside, invisible from the outside.
outside.
Excusitis is the only disease that grows
stronger the more you listen to it. It
feeds on hesitation. It multiplies when
you delay. And over time, it transforms
you into someone who knows what to do,
but never does it. In contrast, observe
nature. A plant does not say there's not
enough sun today. It doesn't pause. It
doesn't plan. It grows upward with
everything it has every single day, no
matter how imperfect the condition. That
is the mindset you need. Don't fight
excuses one by one. Delete the whole
system because if your brain is trained
to explain why something won't work, it
will never be trained to make something
work. Delete the excuses. Replace them
with execution.
Lesson seven. Stop shrinking yourself.
You are more than you think. Shrinking
begins in the mind long before it shows
up in real life. Look at a balloon. It's
designed to expand. But if the person
blowing air into it stops early, the
balloon doesn't say anything. It simply
stays small.
Not because it was broken, not because
it was weak, but because the person who
controlled the air gave up too early.
You are that balloon and your thoughts
are the air. If you stop feeding your
mind expansion, if you stop pushing
against limitation, if you stop
challenging your own comfort,
you stay small even though you were
built to expand. Look at pressure
systems. When steam builds in a pressure
cooker, it reaches a point where it
cannot be contained. It must be
released. That's how potential works
too. If you keep growing, your inner
pressure will demand more, more action,
more clarity, more elevation. But if you
shrink yourself, if you silence your
ideas, avoid discomfort, choose minimum
effort, and ignore your own hunger for
more, then you deactivate the very
system that was meant to make you great.
Shrinking is not quiet. It slowly eats
your ability to take risk, make
decisions, speak clearly, lead
powerfully, and demand more from
yourself. And the longer you live small,
the more normal it starts to feel. But
that doesn't make it right. There is
nothing noble about underliving your potential.
potential.
If a rocket was built to reach space,
but it only flies 5 m off the ground,
that is not safety.
It is failure to launch. So stop hiding.
Stop reducing. Stop underplaying your
capacity. You are built to expand in
thought, in energy, in responsibility,
in impact. You are not too much. You are
too quiet. Stop shrinking and start
becoming. Lesson eight. Your thoughts
are building your future. A thought is
not small. A thought is a blueprint.
Every structure in the physical world,
every building, bridge, plane, book,
business, law, machine began as a
thought. Before it was real, it was
imagined. And that same system is
running inside your mind right now. You
are designing your future every minute
with your thoughts.
But most people don't understand this.
They think thoughts are harmless.
They think thoughts come and go. They
think thoughts are background noise. But
here is the brutal truth. Thoughts
become focus. Focus becomes direction.
Direction becomes habit. Habit becomes
identity. Identity becomes destiny. That
is the chain. And it all starts with a
single thought. Imagine a garden. You
plant nothing. Weeds grow. You plant
laziness. It grows. You plant confusion,
it multiplies. You plant doubt. It
becomes a jungle that blocks all
sunlight. But if you plant precision,
clarity, discipline, ambition, your
garden becomes a machine of creation.
Now imagine your brain like a lens. If
that lens is foggy, your future is
blurry. You take small actions. You
delay decisions. You chase distractions.
But if that lens is clean, your vision
becomes dangerous. You move like a
force. You see through confusion. You
act with intensity because your thoughts
are aligned with creation.
Look at the sky. Clouds do not move
randomly. They are directed by pressure,
temperature, wind, invisible systems
that determine their path.
Your thoughts are that system. You don't
just float through life. You're being
pushed and shaped by what you think repeatedly.
repeatedly.
If you think with chaos, your actions
will be reactive. If you think with weakness,
weakness,
your decisions will be soft.
If you think with hesitation,
your timing will always be late. But if
you learn to control your thoughts, you
control the internal weather system that
shapes everything you do.
This is why small thinkers stay stuck.
They think weak, soft, repetitive,
self-pittitying thoughts. Their brain
becomes an echo chamber of fear, regret,
and hesitation.
Big thinkers, they control the script.
They build their inner dialogue like
architecture. They designed their self-t
talk like a master plan. And because
they design it, they walk into a future
that others call impossible.
impossible.
Not because of magic, because of mental engineering.
engineering.
If you don't build your mind,
life will use you to build someone
else's. But if you decide right now to
take full control of your thoughts, to
choose precision over panic, power over
pity, action over avoidance,
you can shift the axis of your future in
one day. That's not motivation. That's physics.
physics.
Lesson nine. Big thinkers take action.
Big thinking without big action is
fantasy. Big thinking with big action is domination.
domination.
The world is filled with intelligent
minds but empty calendars. Brilliant
ideas but no execution.
Massive dreams but no system of
delivery. You see it everywhere. Plans
written in notebooks but never touched
again. Visions discussed in cafes but
never acted on. Bold thoughts running in
the mind while the body sits still. And
that is the curse of unactivated genius.
Now let's break it with force.
Look at electricity.
The wires are in place. The switch is
installed. But nothing happens until the
circuit is closed. Until action flows.
Your brain is the same. Big ideas are
wires. Big clarity is the system. But
the energy only moves when you act. Big
thinkers don't stop at belief. They move
fast. They move early. They move while
afraid. They move before approval. They
move while others are still writing pros
and cons on paper. Because they
understand the brutal truth. Delay kills
more dreams than failure. You can fix
failure. You can't fix the time you lost
by overthinking. Look at a rocket. It is
loud, aggressive, brutal, and focused.
It doesn't move in slow steps. It lifts
with force. Why? Because to break
gravity, you must act with power. You
are carrying mental gravity, hesitation,
laziness, fear, noise. The only way to
escape is with action that burns hotter
than the gravity holding you down. Big
thinkers do not wait for the perfect
day. They know perfection is not the
starting point. It is the result of
motion. Look at nature. Water wears down
stone. Not through power, but through
consistent movement. If you act every
day, big or small, your life will bend
in your direction. But if you think big
and move small, you will drown in a sea
of forgotten plans. So move now. Write
it down. Schedule it. Make the call. End
the delay. Start the work because big
thinkers do not dream about action. They
become action and the world has no
defense against a mind that thinks big
and a body that moves like it's already
winning. Lesson 10. Pressure creates
power. Every system in the universe from
a volcano to a diamond to a jet engine
follows this one truth. Pressure is not
punishment. It is preparation and
pressure when directed becomes power.
Let's start with the diamond. What is a
diamond really? It's just carbon. The
same base element found in ashes, coal,
and pencils. But under the right
pressure, 725,000
lb per square in, and the right
temperature over 2,200° F.
F.
That same carbon is transformed into one
of the hardest, rarest, and most
valuable substances on Earth. Not
because it wanted to shine, but because
it survived pressure that would destroy 99.9%
99.9%
of all matter. Now look at the human
mind. It wants greatness. It wants
power. It wants success.
But it tries to avoid pressure. It says,
"This is too much. This is too hard. I
just want peace."
But here's the brutal truth. You cannot
have transformation without tension. You
cannot have power without pressure. No
machine produces energy without
resistance. No engine runs without
compression. No explosion of growth
happens in stillness.
If you remove pressure from a system,
you remove its ability to evolve.
Look at tectonic plates. The continents
you stand on today were not always here.
They were shaped by violent, unstoppable
pressure over millions of years. Plates
colliding, mountains rising, oceans separating.
separating.
That is how new worlds are built. And
that's how your future will be shaped.
Pressure is not the enemy. Pressure is
the raw material of power. It shows up
in stress, in doubt, in responsibility,
in discomfort. And if you resist it, it
crushes you. But if you accept it, shape
it, and rise with it. You become
unbreakable just like steel. Steel is
not strong when it's born. It becomes
strong through fire. It is melted,
hammered, cooled, stretched, and beaten
until it can carry the weight of
buildings, bridges, and the future. The
same is true with your discipline, your
patience, your thinking, your identity.
You want to be sharp. You want to be
solid. Then allow the pressure to refine
you, not define you. Because the goal is
not to avoid pressure. The goal is to
become the kind of person who turns
pressure into performance. Lesson 14.
Think right toward failure. Failure is a
tool, not a stop sign. Now, let's
understand this deeply. In engineering,
failure is expected. Before a bridge is
approved, it is pushed until it breaks.
Why? Because engineers don't want
guesses. They want proof of limits.
Failure reveals where strength is
missing, where design must improve,
where adjustment is required. Without
failure, systems stay weak. But the
human mind treats failure differently.
It sees failure as a final answer, a
personal attack, a signal to stop. That
thinking is small thinking. Big thinking
sees failure as data. A failed attempt
is information. A failed plan is
feedback. A failed result is direction.
In science, experiments fail thousands
of times. And every failure narrows the
path to success. If experiments stopped
after the first failure, there would be
no electricity, no medicine, no technology.
technology.
So why should your life be different?
Failure is not the opposite of success.
It is the training ground of success.
The problem is not failure.
The problem is thinking wrong about failure.
failure.
Small thinkers say this didn't work so I
can't do it. Big thinkers say this
didn't work so now I know what doesn't
work. That single difference changes
everything. Failure does not reduce your
value. It refineses your strategy. If
you remove fear of failure from the
mind, action becomes natural. Progress
becomes inevitable.
Think right about failure and failure
will stop controlling you. Lesson 15.
Think right toward people. Control your
reactions. Control your power. If you
press a button, a machine responds. If
you change temperature, matter reacts.
If pressure increases, structure
changes. Human reactions work the same
way. Most people live in reaction mode.
Someone criticizes,
emotion explodes, someone ignores,
confidence drops, someone doubts, energy
collapses. That is weakness. Not because
of others but because control was given
away. Big thinkers do not give their
power to external noise. In physics, a
stable system does not overreact to
small disturbances. It absorbs shock and
stays functional. That is power.
Big thinking means you don't react
emotionally to small minds. You don't
change direction because of opinions.
You don't lose focus because of noise.
Silence can be power. Calm can be dominance.
dominance.
Stability can be leadership.
When you stop reacting, others lose
control over you. And when others lose
control over you, you gain freedom,
mental, emotional, and strategic. Big
thinkers don't fight every battle. They
choose which signals deserve attention.
That is not weakness. That is mastery.
So now you've seen it. Not just how to
think big, but why your whole life
depends on it. Because small thinking
won't save you. It won't feed your
future. And it will never set you free.
But big thinking, it shakes your
comfort, ignites your potential, and
builds the life you were meant for. You
don't need permission. You don't need a
perfect plan. You just need to believe.
I'm meant for more.
So write it down. Say it every morning.
Act like it's already true. Because in
this world, the size of your success
will always match the size of your
thinking. So think bigger, speak louder,
move faster, and never settle for less.
