REACH LYRICS

Some dreams live on in time forever
Those dreams, you want with all
Your heart

And I'll do whatever it takes
Follow through with the promise I made
Put it all on the line
What I hoped for at last would be mine

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment
In my life
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my
Very best
I'd put my spirit to the test
If I could reach

Some days are meant to be
Remembered
Those days we rise above
The stars

So I'll go the distance
This time
Seeing more the higher
I climb
That the more I believe
All the more that this
Dream will be mine

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch

The sky
From that one moment
In my life
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my
Very best
I'd put my spirit to the test
If I could reach

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment
In my life
I'm gonna be stronger
I'm gonna be so much stronger
Yes I am
I put my spirit to the test

If I could reach, higher
If I could, if I could,
If I could reach
Reach, I'd reach, I'd reach
I'd reach, I'd reach so
Much higher
Be stronger

How Bad Do You Want it? Tim McGraw https://puremotivation.com/timmcgraw/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=timmcgraw Wed, 13 May 2020 18:00:26 +0000 https://puremotivation.com/?p=413 Read more…]]>  

 

The words of this Tim McGraw song kinda say it all. You have
to go after your dream with all the vigor and determination you
can muster up without losing yourself and your soul in the process.

How Bad Do You Want It
Tim McGraw

When I'm here on this highway
Breathing diesel smoke
Driving hard for hours
Trying to make that Memphis show
People always ask me
"Son what does it take
To reach out and touch your dreams?"
To them I always say
Are you hungry?
Are you thirsty?
Is it a fire that burns you up inside?
How bad do you want it?
How bad do you need it?
Are you eating, sleeping, dreaming
With that one thing on your mind?
How bad do you want it?
How bad do you need it?
'Cause if you want it all
You've got to lay it all out on the line
I get to make my living
Doing what I love
Every night I give my heart and soul
Sometimes that ain't enough
But brother, if you're like me
Looking down that road
Be careful of that wild wind, son
Sometimes it don't let go
Can you feel it?
Can you taste it?
Can you…

[Verse 1]
One day I was on the ground
When I needed a hand
And it couldn’t be found
I was so far down
That I couldn’t get up
You know and
One day I was one of life’s losers
Even my friends were my accusers
And in my head
Lost before I’d begun

[Chorus 1]
I had a dream
But it turned to dust
What I thought was love
That must have been lust
I was living in style
When the walls fell in
When I played my hand
I looked like a joker
Turn around
Fate must have woke her
Because lady luck she was
Waiting outside the door

[Chorus 2]
I’m winning[x5]
And I don’t intend on losing again

[Verse 2]
Too bad it belonged to me
It was the wrong time
And I meant to be
It took a long time
And I knew for now
I can see the day
That I breath for
Friends agree there’s a need
To play the game
And to win again

[Chorus 2]

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]

LYRICS

Take a look around me
Taking pages from a magazine
Been looking for the answer
Ever since we were seventeen
You know the truth can be a weapon
To fight this world of ill intentions
A new answer to the same question
How many times will you learn the same lesson?
I think they got it all wrong
We just got to hold on
And on, and on, and on
‘Cause we’re gonna be legends
Gonna get their attention
What we’re doing here ain’t just Gary
It’s about to be legendary
Yeah we’re gonna be legends
Gonna teach ’em all a lesson
Got this feeling that we’re so sweet caring
It’s about to be legendary
This is what we came for
And we couldn’t want it anymore
Could never turn back now
Got to leave it all on the floor
Been dreaming of the payoff
Through the struggles and the trade-offs
Write in truth heading on the way up
Tell them the truth but they think it’s just made up
I think they got it all wrong
We just got to hold on
And on, and on, and on
‘Cause we’re gonna be legends
Gonna get their attention
What we’re doing here ain’t just Gary
It’s about to be legendary
Yeah we’re gonna be legends
Gonna teach ’em all a lesson
Got this feeling that we’re so sweet caring
It’s about to be legendary
Eventually their gonna know who’s right
To make a stand you got to win the fight
Can’t stand the heat then just stay out the light
For you might never make it out alive
You gotta live without the columbines
Let everybody hear your battle cry
Yeah we’re gonna be legends
Gonna get their attention
What we’re doing here ain’t just Gary
It’s about to be legendary
Yeah we’re gonna be legends
Gonna teach ’em all a lesson
Got this feeling that we’re so sweet caring
It’s about to be legendary

The Boys Got a Dream the Goads Lyricks

He wakes up every morning
Responds to the Light of Day
All he has ever known
Is work and no play

But he’s always had a vision
his has always had a goal
Never has he wavered
From the things that he’s been told

The Boys Got a Dream
And On His Face it Shows It
He Boy on the Move
He Knows Where he is Going

He Knows What has to be done
from the challenge he will not run
You can tell by the look on his face
the Boy’s Got a Dream

Every Night before she goes to sleep
She gets down on her knees
and she Prays to the father, that her
dreams she’ll always keep

She’s heard the call, she’ll give her all
to be all that she can be
Call she knows all things are possible
to a girl that’s got a Dream

The Girls got a Dream
and on her face it is showin
She is a Girl on the Move
She Knows Where She is Going

She knows what has to be done
and together she’ll get the job
done.  You can tell by the look in
her eyes the girls got a dream

 

THOUGHTS ON THE BOY’S GOT A DREAM

We played this song and several others at every event and
National Conference we held back in my NII days.  If memory
serves me correctly the group members of the Goals were
a gospel group and Amway distributors.

The Boy’s Got a Dream was probably their most popular song, but
if you like this, and you ever find one of their audio CD’s on eBay,
buy it, they have a lot of songs that entrepreneurs will appreciate.

From time to time the Goads CD’s pop up on Amazon or eBay and
when they do, we list them below.  (They usually go quick)

ST. ELMOS FIRE (Man in Motion) Lyrics

Growin’ up, you don’t see the writing on the wall
Passin’ by, movin’ straight ahead, you knew it all
But maybe sometime if you feel the pain
You’ll find you’re all alone, everything has changed

Play the game, you know you can’t quit until it’s won
Soldier on, only you can do what must be done
You know in some way you’re a lot like me
You’re just a prisoner and you’re tryin’ to break free

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin’ sky
I’ll be where the eagle’s flying higher and higher
Gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels
Take me where my future’s lyin’, St. Elmo’s fire

Burning up, don’t know just how far that I can go
(Just how far I go)
Soon be home, only just a few miles down the road
I can make it, I know, I can
You broke the boy in me but you won’t break the man

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin’ sky
I’ll be where the eagle’s flying higher and higher
Gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels
Take me where my future’s lyin’, St. Elmo’s fire

I can climb the highest mountain, cross the wildest sea
I can feel St. Elmo’s fire burnin’ in me, burnin’ in me

Just once in his life a man has his time
And my time is now, I’m coming alive

I can hear the music playin’, I can see the banners fly
Feel like a man again, I’ll hold my head high
Gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels
Take me where my future’s lyin’, St. Elmo’s fire

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin’ sky
I’ll be where the eagle’s flying higher and higher
Gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels
Take me where my future’s lyin’, St. Elmo’s fire
I can climb the highest mountain, cross the wildest sea
I can feel St. Elmo’s fire burnin’ in me
Burnin’, burnin’ in me, I can feel it burnin’
Ooh, burnin’ inside of me

Thoughts on I can Only Imagine Song & Movie.

In my life time there are 3 songs, that brought me to tears
the first time I heard them.   Only Imagine was one of them.

After being released on October 12, 2001, as the second single from Almost There, “I Can Only Imagine” became a major success on Christian radio; it spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Radio & Records Christian AC chart and became the most-played Christian single of 2002. It became an unexpected mainstream hit in 2003, peaking at No. 71 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 5 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart while also hitting top 40adult top 40, and country radio charts. The song returned to the charts after its story was adapted into a 2018 film of the same name,

It is a reminder that life on this earth is short.  I do a training called Balanced Living,  it is a
training that I reserve for Live Group Events.   Currently I only accept up to two speaking
events a month, but if you need a motivational speaker in the Atlanta Georgia area contact
me and I will make an exception to have the opportunity to present the Balanced Living
Training.   It is a message that I sincerely feel people today need to hear.

There are 7 Key areas of life, and one of them is our spiritual life.  At some point of the years I heard a speaker say, “Unitl we are ready to die, we cannot START to LIVE”.

I think about that quote every time I hear “I CAN ONLY IMAGINE”.   Many entrepreneurs  I speak with tell me that someday they will think about and contemplate their spiritual life, but the truth is, Until you are ready to die, you cannot START to Live.

If you have not seen the Movie, I can only imagine, I cannot recommend it highly enough.  If
you though a song making a grown man cry was bad, I cried like a baby throughout the movie
it touched my heart and soul, and I think it will yours as well.

If you are anyone you know, have unresolved issues with your mom or dad, it is simply a
must see. I cannot stress this highly enough.  You can access it on Amazon, if you can’t afford
it let me know, and I will send you the DVD.

IT DON’T COME EASY – RINGO STARR – LYRICS

 

[Intro]
It don’t come easy
You know it don’t come easy
It don’t come easy
You know it don’t come easy
[Chorus 1]
Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues
And you know it don’t come easy
You don’t have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy[Verse 1]
Forget about the past and all your sorrows
The future won’t last
It will soon be over tomorrow
[Chorus 2]
I don’t ask for much, I only want trust
And you know it don’t come easy

And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it just ain’t easy

[Verse 2]
Open up your heart, let’s come together
Use a little love
And we will make it work out better

[Chorus 1]
Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues
And you know it don’t come easy
You don’t have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy

[Verse 3]
Peace, remember peace is how we make it
Here within your reach
If you’re big enough to take it

[Chorus 2]
I don’t ask for much, I only want trust
And you know it don’t come easy

And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it don’t come easy

Thoughts on Ringo Starr’s “It Don’t Come Easy”

Back in the grinding days of my entrepreneurial journey this song was
my theme song.   I had a cassette tape of this song, and I wore it out
I can remember playing it over and over after driving 3 hours home
from an appointment that stood me up.  Knowing I would be getting
home at two in the morning and knowing I had to be up and at work
the next morning at 7:42.

I would get a few hours sleep and get up, go to work, and do it all
over again.  But every now and then I had the opportunity to sit
around a kitchen table and share an opportunity with a person who
was sincerely ready to make a change in their life.  Someone who
was willing to expand their comfort zone, grow as a person and
set themselves free from the 9-5.  Those times, and those people
made it all worth it.

It Don’t Come Easy was on the radio when I was about 10 years old.
Honestly, at my home all that was every played was Gospel and
Country Music.  But i do remember hearing It Don’t Come Easy as
young man.   It is really the first popular hit song I remember from
my childhood.   I am not sure if that is good or bad?

I am not sure if that song programmed my mind to make the journey
harder than it needed to be, but I know when thing for sure.  IT KEPT
ME IN THE GAME!

What is going to keep you in the entrepreneurial game?  Especially during
the grind stage, that all businesses must go through?

I think this is a real challenge for young entrepreneurs today.  They see
people where they are, but they don’t understand what it really took for
them to get there.  The amount of work, dedication & disappointments
and personal education.

Social media is full of fake entrepreneurs who are trying to teach
people how to do, that which they have never done.  Even sadder for
me are those who have found the right mentor, who know what they want,
but are not willing to put forth the consistent action it takes to build a life
where you can sing the blues, or sing whatever song you choose, because
you have made it.

Find the right opportunity
Find the right mentor
and PAY YOUR DUES!





Consistent Effort Doesn't Always
Create Consistent Results, but
It Always Creates Success

Dale Calvert



PS Remember what Ringo said
“You don’t have to shout or leap about”

So many companies today, especially in the home business market
seem more interest in getting people excited by having them dance
and sing at events.

For me real excitement and real lasting motivation comes from wisdom
of the ages success principles internalized and consistent activities in
the market place.  Not Rah Rah sessions at conventions.    That is why
I always tell those hiring me to speak. If you are look for a speaker that
will not challenge your teams, I am not your guy.

ONLY GOD KNOWS WHY  LYRICS – KID ROCK

 

I’ve been sittin’ here
Tryin’ to find myself
I get behind myself
I need to rewind myself
Lookin’ for the payback
Listen for the playback
They say that every man bleeds just like me
And now I feel like number one
Yet I’m last in life
I watch my younger son
And it helps to pass the time
I take too many pills to help to ease the pain
I made a couple of dollar bills still I feel the
same
Everybody knows my name
They say it way out loud
A lot of folks fuck with me
It’s hard to hang out in crowds
I guess that’s the price you pay
To be some big shot like I am
Out strecthed hands and one night stands
Still I can’t find love

And when your walls come tumbling down
I will always be around
And when your walls come tumbling down
I will always be around

People don’t know about the things I say and do
They don’t understand about the shit that I’ve been
through
It’s been so long since I’ve been home
I’ve been gone, I’ve been gone for way too long
Maybe I forgot all things I miss
Oh somehow I know there’s more to life than this
I said it too many times
And I still stand firm
You get what you put in
And people get what they deserve
Still I ain’t seen mine
No I ain’t seen mine
I’ve been giving just ain’t been gettin’
I’ve been walking down that there line
So I think I’ll keep on walking
With my head held high
I’ll keep moving on and only God knows why

Only God…..Only God
Only God knows why
Only God….knows….why, why, why only God knows
why
Take me to the river’s edge
Take me to the river, hey hey hey

THOUGHTS ON KID ROCK’S ONLY
GOD KNOWS WHY

This song helped get me through some of the most difficult
times in my entrepreneurial journey.  I have never talked
about it much, and probably never will.  The only way I know
how to describe it is going through 20 Divorces at the same
time with people you truly loved.

Honestly it took me out of the game for over 15 years, and it
took a couple of heart attacks to get me emotionally back in
the game and back on the field.

Say or think what you want about Kid Rock, this song comes
from the soul.

They say everything happens for a reason, and on many levels
I believe that, however some things happen simply because we
make bad decisions.

I think one of the Secrets of Life is to try to get through life with
as few bad decisions as possible.  Some people’s life are a
series of bad decision after bad decision.

A few years ago, I set a goal to focus on making the best
decisions I can daily.  That is what I would wish for my
children and grandchildren.   When you do make bad decisions
you can’t blame it on somebody else.  We have to ask ourselves
how we could have personally handled the situation differently?.

Blaming others is easy, but that mindset will cause you to miss
the lesson you where suppose to learn.

All we can do is take responsibility, live, learn and continue to
move forward with our head held high as Kid Rock says in this
awesome song,  Only God Knows Why.
