    My nephew introduced me to this wonderful young man, Inky Johnson. God had a bigger plan for his life, rather than football. He probably has no idea of the lives, young and old, that he has touched!!
    I love his passion, his spirit, his faith. He has definitely inspired my walk. May God continue to guide and direct his path.🥰

    Inky Johnson, you have no idea how important this message is. I skip these wannabe motivational speakers 10 times a day, but I needed this, and I’ve watched it at least once a year since I found it.

    I listen to this every morning before I go to work. The part about his mom waiting on the field with her headlights on always gives me chills.

    If you think his speech is great imagine eating dinner across from him at a restaurant. I had that experience and wanted so desperately to say ‘hello & thank you’ however, he was with his wife & children. Instead, I left moments before he did, sat in my car where I could see him exit the restaurant and yelled…Inky Johnson I LOVE YOUR WORK & THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!!!. He was so humble…he waved and thanked me. 💕

      Don't wait 7 years to come back to the post, come back every few months to a year so it keeps you motivated. I love to see young ppl with such drive and dedication. No matter where life takes you whether it be to the NFL, owning your own business, or working your way up to CEO of a McDonald's. As long as you stay dedicated & motivated you can to whatever you want. Wishing you all much prosperity in life!

  • @toddweiner9040
    @toddweiner9040 8 лет назад +10

    Great speech. I preached this very message to my son who had a promising tennis future, shattered by injury after injury. It is what we become in the process of trying to reach our goals that count more than if we actually reach the "product". I think the Inky has a message that should be heard by all black men today. 50 years ago the black family was the strongest family unit in this country. Today it is the worst. The destruction of the black family is one of the worst travesties of our generation.

    I am sure many people have told you this... "You honestly saved my life." I am thankful I came across your video a year ago. I came home one day and cried (when pain hits the soul). The feeling of people telling you, that your not worthy eventually gets to you. You start to question yourself. Thank you and I really wish we cross paths in our life time. I would like to personally thank you Inky.
    Anyone out there going through difficult times just whisper to yourself, "This too shall pass.." stay strong brothers/sisters, I love yall!

    Ink, all this time I realised I was selfish I believed God only spoke to me to do the right thing for other people and they just treat me bad coz that's what they want. After listening to you I believed they heard God's voice too as they kept pushing me down coz I began to dig deeper for a better meaning for this. God made sure I realise who I am coz through those moments I know level of Wisdom and Power I posses. I'm gonna be like you one day.
    THANK YOU FOR THE INSPIRATION.

  • @Brian-rs4ug
    @Brian-rs4ug 4 года назад +3

    I think what Inky is teaching here is TRUE GENUINE SUCCESS starts on the INSIDE. Most people are trying to change outward circumstances rather than inward character, attitudes, and trusting God has a call/purpose for your life. But very FEW people reach the call God has for them cause they quit way to soon in life. Success in life is guaranteed to those who REFUSE to quit.
    Babe Ruth once said “ It’s hard to beat a person who refuses to quit.”
