Grand Master Rorion Gracie
In this episode Marty interviews the legendary Grand Master Rorion Gracie. GM Rorion is the oldest son of GM Helio Gracie. He was responsible for starting the original Ultimate Fighting Championship, as well as bringing Gracie Jiu Jitsu to america and spreading it throughout the world.
His latest mission is spreading the word about the Gracie Diet; and he is as passionate and committed to this as he was about spreading GJJ over the past 20+ years. GM Rorion is a very interesting and inspiring individual. He is a true visionary.
Whatever your mind can conceive and believe, it will achieve. Dream great dreams and make them come true. Do it now. You are unique. And all the history of the world there was never anyone exactly like you, and in all the infinity to come there will never be another you. Never a firm self-limitations. What you believe yourself to be, you are.
To accomplish great things you must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost - put foundations under them. Yes you can.
Believing is magic. You can always better your best. You don't know what you can do until you try. Nothing will come of nothing. If you don't go out on a limb, you're never going to get the fruit. There is no failure excepting no longer
trying. Hazy goals produce hazy results. Clearly define your goals. Write them down, make a plan for achieving them, set a deadline, visualize the results and go after them. Just don't look back unless you want to go that way.
Defeat may test you: it need not stop you. If at first you don't succeed to try another way. For every obstacle there is a solution.
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. The greatest mistake is it giving up. Wishing will not bring success, but planning, persistence and a burning desire will. There is a gold mine within you from which you can extract all the necessary ingredients.
Success is an attitude. Get yours right. It is astonishing how short a time it takes for very wonderful things to happen. Now, go make it happen!
