Transcript:
(0:02) How interesting it is that four decades later, I’m standing here at the Nike headquarters (0:09) wearing not my usual speaking attire, but Levi’s and a pair of Nike shoes. (0:21) What I learned that day is that while we cannot change our yesterday, we can inspire our tomorrow. (0:31) And today, I invite you to think about the tree of your childhood and the tree that you want to (0:41) nurture today.
And, you know, I remember growing up, she would say to my dad, she says, (0:48) if Elvis walked through these doors, don’t get offended, but I’m going with him. I’m just leaving. (0:55) Never mind, he never showed up, you know, so tell and share with everybody something joyful (1:00) they’re doing this weekend.
One person, yes. My system for achieving your goal, it’s called (1:07) RELOC. It’s an acronym, don’t look at the dictionary, you will not find what it is.
(1:11) And some people said to me, oh, Doris, you spelled it wrong. And I was like, no, I spelled it right. (1:16) And it’s just a simple question.
You have your goal, you don’t have your goal. What is it for you? (1:23) You know, love is a great word. It’s not only a noun and a verb, but it’s also emotion, (1:29) value, attribute.
What is the emotions that you put into this? Do you get up in the morning and (1:36) say, yeah, got to do this thing, right? Or you get up in the morning, I get to do this thing, (1:42) to penetrate into your psyche and say, oh, you know, fill your mind with self-criticism, (1:48) self-doubt, you know, you can’t do this goal, you might as well quit now. Or do you say to yourself, (1:55) no, I want to do this. This is important to me.
And that, of course, is connected to how you talk (2:02) to yourself. How do you talk? Look at this man. He loves whatever he’s going to do.
You can see it. (2:09) You can see it. You can feel the energy in his body.
So we talked about reason for your goal. (2:15) We talked about love for your goal. And then sometimes other things happen.
(2:24) With all of our intentions, something happens, challenges happen. (2:29) This vendor didn’t produce the product in time. This team did not do the timeline.
You tell me, (2:37) what other challenges you think you would be facing with your goal? What would it be? Fear (2:43) and doubt. Yes. Yes.
You say to yourself, oh, my God, what did you say? Communication challenges. (2:52) I can’t really explain or I don’t or you are not explaining the other person. And then you get to (2:58) be overwhelmed.
You say, what about if I don’t succeed? I don’t have the money. I have the fear (3:06) and the doubt. I’m not communicating.
What am I going to do? And then the four letter F word (3:14) comes into mind. And I don’t know what you guys are thinking of. (3:20) But I am thinking of fear.
Fear comes up. And that fear paralyzes you. That fear (3:30) doesn’t allow you to move forward.
And then the other part is the internal knowledge. (3:37) It’s who you are. What do you need to learn about yourself so that you make your goal a reality? (3:45) So he comes to me and he says, Ima, which means mom, why haven’t we learned how to ski in our (3:52) family? So I say, son, we are the desert people.
What I learned is that the foundational block of (4:03) the relationship we have in this world starts with the relationship we have with ourselves. (4:09) Do we have that self-awareness of what we bring to every interaction? (4:15) Oh, my gosh. Give yourself a clap, everybody.
Look at these words. Look at these words. (4:23) Yes.
Yes. Kindness in a way is leaving a legacy. What’s the legacy that you want to leave behind (4:32) to the people that you love and the people that appreciate you? What’s the legacy? (4:39) And whatever that legacy is, become it now.
We are champions. Are we ready? But loud. (4:44) Really loud.
Ready? We are the champions. (4:52) So here we go. Are we ready? I know I have the ability to achieve my goal.
(5:04) I have my reason. I know my why. (5:12) Day by day and in every way, I get better and better.
Oh, yeah. (5:17) Day by day. Excellent.
(5:25) That maybe next time I see you, wherever it is, (5:28) that you’ll tell me, Doris, I did my re-lock. I believe in you. I know you can.
