HANDS AND DAYLIGHT
Summary: America was forged. From nothing came everything we believe in. But the America our grandparents once knew is not the America we now know. Pete Roberts explores how our ancestors used their minds, hands and daylight to build this great nation. Have you forgotten your history? Have you forgotten that you and me, men and women are the ones who drive true change. Have you forgotten that our independence was won through the sacrifice of our ancestors. That what we have is the sum of their works. A movement of the people is the true power we have. But the greatest legacy they left is not the bridges and buildings, it's this thing we call Freedom. That unified we can move mountains. It's not business as usual, Pete builds parallels between the past, the present and the future. He discusses how to reconstruct the grit, values, and work ethic through his personal experiences and of those who have been there.

"Trusting that ship that you’re on, that’s going through the fog, that the sun’s gonna come up and burn it off. Believing you’re gonna see clearly afterwards.

An incredible interview with Jason Perry

Living life and executing without compromise means that behind closed doors, you don't lie to yourself. Sometimes you may step on profits, so change what the word profit means to you.

If you don't take a risk on yourself, no one will take a risk on you. Everything that has been created will also be deconstructed by time, so what do you have to lose?

Where does inspiration really come from. Does it hit you like a lightning bold, or can you work it like a muscle? You CAN evoke inspiration and creativity even in the hardest times.

And you may find yourself trying to launch out of quicksand.
America’s mindset deficit is at an all time high. I wonder how we Americans can stop the madness, create opportunity, and start using our minds, hands and daylight. Better yet, how can infuse action back into our culture and communities. Broken homes don’t define you, your background doesn’t define you. You and I, all of us... we have a head start because we live in the kingdom of opportunity, the United States of America.
That word "DESERVE"... wipe it from your vocabulary.This is conditioning for life. Life is going to be painful, there's gonna be some hard times, son. Nothing is given to you, and don't look at the world like you deserve something because you simply exist in a conscious state. If you haven't worked your ass off for it, you don't deserve it. And sometimes, many times, you will work your ass off or something, and you still won't win. And guess what you're going to need to do... tape it up.
