    Audio clips from Muhammad Ali's speech, Rocky, and Coach Carter.
    VIDEO SCRIPT/LYRICS:
    Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure, beyond measure.
    Ima show you, how great I am.
    Last night I cut the light off in my bedroom, hit the switch, and was in the bed before the room was dark.
    Ima show you, how great I am.
    Only last week, I murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalized a brick, Im so mean I make medicine sick.
    Ima show you, how great I am.
    This kids gonna be the best kid in the world.
    This kids gonna be somebody better than anybody I ever knew.
    Ima show you, how great I am.
    I have wrastled with an alligator, I done tussled with a whale, I done handcuffed lightnin, thrown thunder in jail.
    Ima show you, how great I am.
    All you chumps are gonna bow when I whoop him, all of you, I know you got him, I know youve got him picked, but the mans in trouble, Ima show you how great I am.
    But somewhere along the line you changed, you stopped being you.
    You let people stick a finger in your face and tell you youre no good, and when things got hard, you started looking for something to blame, like a big shadow.
    Let me tell you something you already know, the world aint all sunshine and rainbows, its a very mean and nasty place and I dont care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it.
    You, me, or nobody, is gonna hit as hard as life; but it aint about how hard you hit, its about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much you can take and keep moving forward.
    Thats how winning is done.
    Cause if youre willin to go through all the battling you gotta go through to get to where you wanna get, whos got the right to stop you.
    I mean maybe some of you guys got something you never finished, something you really want to do, something you never said to somebody, something.
    And youre told no even after you pay your dues, whos got the right to tell you that, who? Nobody.
    Its your right to listen to your gut, it aint nobodys right to say no, after you earn the right to be where you want to be and do what you want to do.
    Now if you know what youre worth, then go out and get what youre worth.
    But youve gotta be willing to take the hits.
    And not pointing fingers saying you aint where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody.
    Cowards do that and that aint you!
    Youre better than that!
    Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
    It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
    Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
    Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
    It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
    Your playing small does not serve the world.
    There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
    We are all meant to shine, as children do.
    It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
    And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
    As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
    Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
    All you chumps are gonna bow when I whoop him, all of you, I know you got him, I know youve got him picked, but the mans in trouble, Ima show you how great I am.

    This video helped me a lot this past track season. My coach doubted my potential and I proved to him I was greater than that. Put in the extra hours on and off the track and I am now proud to say Im head to London for the 2012 Olympics. Thanks for re posting this

    THIS IS BIGGER THAN ANY RACE OR COMPETITION, THIS IS ABOUT YOUR PURPOSE IN LIFE:
    Here's the situation with this video so many are paying attention to the athletic side of this video,but when actually STOP & LISTEN to words their preaching..... IT SO MUCH BIGGER than a little spartan race ,5k ,10k, 1/2 marathon or even full marathon. It's bigger than ROTC etc ....... Find your purpose in life & then listen again.

    Man this video is amazing. In 2012 I constantly watched it late at night after long days of training or the night before competition. This really helped me mentally get ready for a huge year. That same year I ended up making the US Olympic team and won a silver medal in the London 2012 olympics at age 20. Glad I found this video again and thanks for posting it!

    Hey sure. The original video is on the spartanrace website. Click on the link in the description and you will be taken to their website. However, you might not find this video on their website anymore as they have just created their "2012 commercial" which replaced the current video. I have also uploaded their 2012 commercial on youtube.

    It's called "Now We Are Free" by Lisa Gerrard from the Gladiator soundtrack :) It's really easy to find if you search on RUclips, they wouldn't allow me to add a specific URL to this comment tho!
