Thank you for sharing this video, here are my speech notes: • dreams without goals are just dreams • life goals yearly goals daily goals • discipline and consistency • plan everyday work everyday • hard work works • Just because you are going a lot more doesn’t mean you are getting a lot more done. • don’t confuse movement with progress • it’s about what you do with what you have, not about what you have • say thank you every morning in advance, for what is already yours • each one, teach one • aspire to make a difference • nothing in life is worth it if you don’t take risk • you will lose, you will embarrass yourself, you'll suck. • to get something you never had, you have to do something you never did • the world needs a lot and we need it from you • what are you going to do with what you have? • small minds discuss other people, good minds discuss ideas • care for one another, love one another • what an opportunity we have Thank you For Reading My Notes! Because of this video I have made my own yearly-, monthly- and weekly-goals, which I share on my own channel, for people who need a reference.

Thank you Denzel. My daughter was in a terrible accident, revived a tbi, her brain shifted, she broke her back in five places, tore her vagina and anus open when she was ejected, and multiple other injuries. She was not expected to make it. She was in a coma and life support. Needless to say, her recovery was unbearable for me, and the hardest fight she ever fought for her. We had to re teach her everything. I never let her give up. I never let her fall back. She fell seven times and got up eight. Four years later, she is soaring again. With God, with perseverance, and taking risks many people couldn't survive. There is so much more to what I call Sierra's journey, but what you said, is exactly what I did to get my child back. Thank you for taking time out for everyday people. I just wanted you to know how you affect people

@@gonzalovenegasgomez349 You should do your research, Malcolm X and Nation of Islam was a role he played. You do know that movies are actor's right? The devout Christian actor also touched on the unhealthy relationship people have with social media platforms, questioning people who choose to focus too much on themselves in an attempt to garner attention from their online followers. “The enemy is the inner me,” Washington explained, further elaborating, “The Bible says in the last days - I don’t know if it’s the last days, it’s not my place to know - but it says we’ll be lovers of ourselves.” The renowned actor continued, “The No. 1 photograph today is a selfie, ‘Oh, me at the protest.’ ‘Me with the fire.’ ‘Follow me.’ ‘Listen to me,’” asserting that “We’re living in a time where people are willing to do anything to get followed.” Denzel Washington then posits the question, “What is the long or short-term effect of too much information? It’s going fast and it can be manipulated obviously in a myriad of ways. And people are led like sheep to slaughter.” According to the Training Day actor, in heaven “there are going to be two lines, the long line and the short line, and I’m interested in being in the short line.” “You have to fill up that bucket every morning,” Washington declared. “It’s rough out there. You leave the house in the morning. Here they come, chipping away. By the end of the day, you’ve got to refill that bucket. We know right from wrong.” As the interview nears to an end, The New York Times’ Maureen Dowd asks the actor whether he “saw your share of glossolalia” growing up in the Pentecostal Church of God in Christ. “Don’t play with God. Don’t play with God. You hear what I said? Don’t play with God. You heard what I said? Don’t play with God,” Denzel Washington replied to Dowd’s tone-deaf, uneducated question. The Man on Fire actor continued, “This is spiritual warfare. So, I’m not looking at it from an earthly perspective. If you don’t have a spiritual anchor you’ll be easily blown by the wind and you’ll be led to depression.” Remembering his late father, who was an ordained Pentecostal minister, Washington recalled, “That’s what got my father, he couldn’t give up the meat and fried foods,” and asked Dowd whether she had read the Bible, encouraging the reporter to “Start with the New Testament, because the Old Testament is harder. You get caught up in the who-begot-who-begot-who thing.”

Denzel Washington has such a presence as a man, a human, a celebrity. It is unreal the amount of respect that he receives. What is it about him that is so unique that he is so revered? It really is his persona, the timbre of his voice, how he carries himself. So much of what we talk about when referring to him is his utter charisma AND his depth as a person. I can list virtually any actor in Hollywood, but have a hard time thinking of anyone who has earned such respect, perhaps Tom Hanks. What irony that they were together in the movie Philadelphia. Mr. Washington, of course, is not perfect as a human, but, what comes across so clearly in his public appearances is his desire to operate in an ethical manner in how he does his work as an actor.

I am
Thank you Denzel. My daughter was in a terrible accident, revived a tbi, her brain shifted, she broke her back in five places, tore her vagina and anus open when she was ejected, and multiple other injuries. She was not expected to make it. She was in a coma and life support. Needless to say, her recovery was unbearable for me, and the hardest fight she ever fought for her. We had to re teach her everything. I never let her give up. I never let her fall back. She fell seven times and got up eight. Four years later, she is soaring again. With God, with perseverance, and taking risks many people couldn't survive. There is so much more to what I call Sierra's journey, but what you said, is exactly what I did to get my child back. Thank you for taking time out for everyday people. I just wanted you to know how you affect people
This, is survival! A mother's love, and a determined spirit! Go brave! 💐 👏👏👏👏 🌟
I pray all success in life for your daughter. Stand strong!
God bless you and your family!
Quite moving and a rare occasion adventure to fall Many times and prooves the courage provided by Denzel to his daughter which is more fatherly and thought of mind to ponder.Keep on.
A mother’s love is beyond love…….
My favorite actor . Not only because he is one of the absolute best at his trade but because he is genuine . Always places the lord first and takes care of our soldiers .

Amen. Thank you. God bless you too
This is a great speech, by a man of God, a man of character, a man of wisdom. A man that knows Jesus.
Oh my God are you the guy who stole the Declaration of Independence?
Jesus loves you so much. God sent his begotten Son, that whosoever believth in Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life.

He is a muslim
@@gonzalovenegasgomez349 You should do your research, Malcolm X and Nation of Islam was a role he played. You do know that movies are actor's right? The devout Christian actor also touched on the unhealthy relationship people have with social media platforms, questioning people who choose to focus too much on themselves in an attempt to garner attention from their online followers. “The enemy is the inner me,” Washington explained, further elaborating, “The Bible says in the last days - I don’t know if it’s the last days, it’s not my place to know - but it says we’ll be lovers of ourselves.” The renowned actor continued, “The No. 1 photograph today is a selfie, ‘Oh, me at the protest.’ ‘Me with the fire.’ ‘Follow me.’ ‘Listen to me,’” asserting that “We’re living in a time where people are willing to do anything to get followed.” Denzel Washington then posits the question, “What is the long or short-term effect of too much information? It’s going fast and it can be manipulated obviously in a myriad of ways. And people are led like sheep to slaughter.” According to the Training Day actor, in heaven “there are going to be two lines, the long line and the short line, and I’m interested in being in the short line.” “You have to fill up that bucket every morning,” Washington declared. “It’s rough out there. You leave the house in the morning. Here they come, chipping away. By the end of the day, you’ve got to refill that bucket. We know right from wrong.” As the interview nears to an end, The New York Times’ Maureen Dowd asks the actor whether he “saw your share of glossolalia” growing up in the Pentecostal Church of God in Christ. “Don’t play with God. Don’t play with God. You hear what I said? Don’t play with God. You heard what I said? Don’t play with God,” Denzel Washington replied to Dowd’s tone-deaf, uneducated question. The Man on Fire actor continued, “This is spiritual warfare. So, I’m not looking at it from an earthly perspective. If you don’t have a spiritual anchor you’ll be easily blown by the wind and you’ll be led to depression.” Remembering his late father, who was an ordained Pentecostal minister, Washington recalled, “That’s what got my father, he couldn’t give up the meat and fried foods,” and asked Dowd whether she had read the Bible, encouraging the reporter to “Start with the New Testament, because the Old Testament is harder. You get caught up in the who-begot-who-begot-who thing.”
“If I’m going to fall, I don’t wanna fall back on anything… I want to fall forward. At least that way I’ll see what I’m going to hit.” Brilliant
Denzel's words served as a source of motivation, encouragement, and a reminder that each person has the power to shape their own destiny and contribute to a better world.
So true
I've always admired Denzel. Not only a great actor, but a great human. He took care of and loved his wife and family, has great morals and great faith in God.
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to..
Very true talented and real very rear
@tyyepes935 I hope you are hoping up well, brother. Sending you love and hug
"if you are not failing means you are not even trying" powerful words... failure should encourage us not the other way round
Manifesting
WOW!!! Denzel is brilliant and when he gets to 13:30 about Les Brown (Motivation Speaker) that resonated with me 1000% This is good even at my age of 56. I have learned something new today and I hope to have one less GHOST...
Hi dear, how are u doing
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to..
Hello ma'am how are you doing well I hope? can I ask you a question in private? if possible write to me on my address thank you and see you soon
@1st And 2nd Time Around, Hello how are you and your family doing over there? Thanks a lot for your comment, Are you also one of my fans.
hey there I came across your comment and I just had to reach out and say hi. Your perspective really caught my attention and I would love to get to know you better. Would you be interested in chatting sometime? Looking forward to hear back from you!
He is wonderful !!! Because of his speech I decided to make a change and proceed with my dream, even though I am in my 40z however I decided to change my entire field and go back to University again. Thank you 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Inspiring
Jesus loves you so much. God sent his begotten Son, that whosoever believth in Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life.
Congrats Maya! I too decided to go back to school at 40. We can do it!!
To people like you I just wish the best of luck, you deserve it!!
I’ve decided to do the same at 35
No other commencement speech will ever top this one. Denzel W is the best - human, down-to-earth, funny, but his message is clear. Well said and mighty encouraging for future generations. Penn's 255th commencement students and staff got a real treat.
A truly wonderful man!!.
Here I am in 2024.. coming back to listen to this. Man is a legend . All day every day.
One of the best I have ever heard. Thank you Denzel and keep inspiring
Great speech. Every student should hear this throughout their school years.
I’ve listened to this several times and started listening to it right before a job interview yesterday. I made it about half way through and then finished it after the interview. It was and is a huge help to me. Thank you Mr. Washington!
I’m 45 btw 😆
Did you get the job?
I am a Drexel University graduate and I love this speech.
@@codyhinrichs9073 I didn’t but this helped me to keep the faith. I’m in the process of starting a new job position. Thanks for asking!
V cc loo o. Cb f cc d😮😅🥰😢☺️
THIS IS IT... THIS IS NOT MOTIVATIONAL VIDEOS ITS AN JOURNEY THROUGH WORDS TO INSPIRE US! THANKYOU, DENZEL WASHINGTON
Half of these graduates dont look impressed, or look bored to death! I'd be in complete awe and mesmerized throughout his speech!!
I thought that same thing. They have no idea what nuggets he’s given them and what gem they have in front of them.
Probably because they thought they were gonna get some Fortune 500 Ceo to speak,but I’d argue Denzel would give a better speech than the Ceo.It probably also has to do that a good amount of the students are probably foreign exchange students,and don’t know who Denzel is.
Yeah idiots they literally got Denzel they should have seen the UGA graduations a bunch of nobodies making speeches for 2 hours
10 years later & i still listen to this
I was 9 at this watching my cousin graduate from college, now I’m almost 20 and this is a core memory
You're lucky
My favorite actor....Still watching John Q. God bless you my brother 🙏🙏💯
Definitely one of my favorite speeches. You can achieve everything you put your mind to! Keep pushing wherever you are and whatever you are doing
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Denzel Washington's commencement here and Tom Hanks's at Yale University are truly worth listening to over and over again.
Phenomenal!! My favorite actor!! Pray 🙏 that he continues to be blessed! Also his beautiful wife & family 💕
I needed to hear this tonight. Thank you, Denzel.
This motivation speech keeps me going and keep pushing in life
I respect you too. Thanks for your wise words.
He is unique in his own way, an exemplary public figure.
I love him for the messages words of encouragement!
There are very few celebrities that I care to listen to. Denzel Washington is a national treasure and he shows strong wisdom. Wisdom is a gift we should cherish.
Hello Jax, how are you and your family doing over there? thanks a lot for your comment, Are you also one of my fans
Denzel this speech is life changing!!! It is the most inspiring lesson I have ever heard!!! Take risks, fail big, embrace failure, failing means your trying, but never quit, dreams are just that without goals, fall forward, work hard, be consistent, persist!!!This give me the guts to continue!!!
NEEDS MORE NOTES One of the best Speeches I've ever heard 10/10
Such a beautiful speech and still relevant.Authentic and motivating even 7 years later.❤❤❤
Great testimonial and messages from a person who is not afraid to share his humble beginnings while failing forward to prepare him for future opportunities in life. Excellent actor as well.

Denzel Washington has such a presence as a man, a human, a celebrity. It is unreal the amount of respect that he receives. What is it about him that is so unique that he is so revered? It really is his persona, the timbre of his voice, how he carries himself. So much of what we talk about when referring to him is his utter charisma AND his depth as a person. I can list virtually any actor in Hollywood, but have a hard time thinking of anyone who has earned such respect, perhaps Tom Hanks. What irony that they were together in the movie Philadelphia. Mr. Washington, of course, is not perfect as a human, but, what comes across so clearly in his public appearances is his desire to operate in an ethical manner in how he does his work as an actor.
My favorite actor and great speaker
Denzel is always great!
One of the best ever really listen to what you say humble man and I take your advice as I think as a man you’ve been through it all and a true gentleman I listen to this over and over again I hope you know how intelligent you are and how you’re words inspire people denzel
