How to Design Your Life's Blueprint | Martin Luther King

in #life7 years ago

Hey friends,

...today i want to share my favorite motivation video with you. It is a speech held by Martin Luther King.
Normally i do not get goose bumps often but while watching this speech.. GOOSE BUMPS all over^_^
I try watching this speech like once a week and it really helps me stay focused and positive.
I really hope it gives you feels too and inspires you a bit :-) If so, let me know <3

Here you find the speech. Below i you'll find the transcript. Hope you enjoy it :-)

transcript:

“This is the most important and crucial period of your lives, for what you do now and what you decide now at this age may well determine which way your life shall go. The question is, whether you have a proper, a solid, and a sound blueprint. I want to suggest some of the things that should be in your life’s blueprint. Number one in your life’s blueprint should be a deep belief in your own dignity, your own worth and your own somebodiness. Don’t allow anybody to make you feel that you are nobody. Always feel that you count. Always feel that you have worth, and always feel that your life has ultimate significance.

“Secondly, in your life’s blueprint, you must have as a basic principle the determination to achieve excellence in your various fields of endeavor. You’re going to be deciding as the days and the years unfold what you will do in life, what your life’s work will be. Once you discover what it will be, set out to do it and to do it well. Be a bush if you can’t be a tree. If you can’t be a highway, just be a trail. If you can’t be the sun, be a star, for it isn’t by size that you win or you fail, be the best of whatever you are.

“Finally, in your life’s blueprint must be a commitment to the eternal principals of beauty, love, and justice. Well life for none of us has been a crystal stair, but we must keep moving, we must keep going. If you can’t fly, run. If you can’t run, walk. If you can’t walk, crawl, but by all means, keep moving.”

by Martin Luther King
