Listen Later

In today's talk, I'm going to go over why it's not too late to start doing the things that you love, and become successful at it, and I'm going to give you five examples of people that started late in life.

My entire life,  I told myself I was going to be successful and retire at 30. I'm 32 now and I'm nowhere close to it. I've tasted it, but I'm not there yet. Throughout our entire lives, we're told you need to figure out what to do in life, you need to pick a major, what are you going to do for the rest of your life. These people that are asking these questions haven't even figured out their life and they expect you to have the answer at 19 years old. I know people in their late 40s 50s and 60s that haven't figured it out yet. They're still living paycheck-to-paycheck. They still don't have the motivation and they won't even give it a try. So my message to you is, today, start today, not tomorrow, today, doing what you want to do, start doing it, live the life that you want, do the thing that you're passionate about, do the thing that makes you most happy, if you're watching this video you've already seen a ton of motivational videos, get off your ass and go do it.

Now. Here's five examples of people that started super late in life and got massive successful!

#5

Samuel L Jackson. Yep. That's right Samuel L. Jackson is in every single movie ever made, even though he's not in it. He's in it. Now, you're thinking Samuel Jackson. He's in every single movie. “He had to be popular his entire….” NO, his entire career was nothing until the age of 43, at the age of 43 he landed his role in Spike Lee's, Jungle Fever, and after all the movies that he made he raked in a nice 251 million dollars.

#4

Martha Stewart. Now Martha Stewart is literally the icon of doing stuff at home, cooking, all that. like she is THE person, but she didn't get famous until she was 40 years old when she wrote her first book for entertaining. Now, this lady is worth 1.2 billion dollars.

#3

Probably my favorite. Mr. Stan Lee. Now Stan Lee is known for all of the comic book industry. Like he's the guy that created all of it, the Fantastic Four, Thor, The Avengers, Iron Man, all of it. He's the guy.  He didn't make his first comic book until he was 39 years old, when he invented the Fantastic Four. So if you're in your 20s, and you're like I haven't made it yet. Just be patient. Trust me.

#2

Henry Ford. It wasn't until he was 45 that his journey to entrepreneurship began. Now this dude had barely any resources, but he knew how to use people as a resource. In 1908, he made the first Model T. Now. This was a different age. He died in 1947, but by that time he was worth, in today's money, 251 billion dollars
