First, if you're here today and think that you're too young to do something great, let me tell you that you are wrong. You can have great success at a very young age. You're all very young. In America, with drive and ambition, young people can do anything.

I was 28 when I took my first big gamble — to develop a hotel in Midtown Manhattan, the Grand Hyatt — and it worked out incredibly well. But I was very young at the time. I was like a very young person in sort of an old person's business.

Steve Jobs was 21 when he founded Apple. Walt Disney was 21 when he founded Disney. James Madison, James Monroe, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson — they were no older than 25 when they began the journeys that etched their names into the history books for all time.

---

quote:

---

I rarely see somebody that's successful that doesn't love what he or she does. That way, you really like work — it isn't work. It's fun. I find it fun. I work all the time, and I find that fun. If I didn't find it, I wouldn't be successful — whether it was real estate or in showbiz. I had a lot of different careers.

I was very successful in real estate because I loved it. I learned a lot from my father because I watched him work. He was a workaholic. He loved to work. He was a good man. He was a tough guy — tough as hell, actually. Now that I think back, I don't know if you could even get away with that nowadays. He was tough, but he was a good man, I'll tell you.

---

quote:

---

You know, if you're going to do something, you might as well think big, because it's just as tough. Now, if it's not possible, that's okay too. You do something — you have to do something that you love. You will have all the same headaches and challenges, all the same delays and setbacks, so you might as well do something that's just amazing. America doesn't aim small.

---

quote:

---

Work hard. Never, ever stop. An example is a great athlete actually—Gary Player, golfer. Great, great golfer. He wasn't as big as other men. He was actually on the small side — don't tell him that, he's a friend of mine. Don't tell him that, because he doesn't understand that. But he worked very, very hard. He made up for it. He never stopped. He won 168 golf tournaments — think of that. And he made a statement years ago that I read, and I thought it was sort of an incredible statement. He said, "It's funny—the harder I work, the luckier I get." Think of that. "The harder I work, the luckier I get."

---

quote:

---

You just want to keep it going. And you have to know if you are losing it. You have to know when you're losing it. So maybe you stop. Maybe it's time to stop. Listen to the feedback. Think through your plan very carefully and keep moving fast. The word momentum is very important. There'll be a time when you do lose. You see it with fighters. You see it with a lot of people.

They have a great record and they retire. Then four years later they say, "I'm going back. I can beat that." And they get knocked to hell. And it's not good. It's not good.

You have to know when your momentum time is up. I call it momentum time. But follow your momentum. Very important word. You don't hear it from too many, but I've seen it. I've seen it a lot.

quote:

If you want to change the world, you have to have the courage to be an outsider. In other words, you have to take certain risks and do things a little bit differently. Otherwise, if that weren't the case, everybody would be successful. It doesn't work that way.

Progress never comes from those satisfied with the failures of a broken system. It comes from those who want to fix the broken system. And you'll make the bigger money — you'll make more success — by acting that way. The other way may be more secure. But if you want to go to the top...

Change is never easy. And the closer you get to success, the more ferociously those with a vested interest in the past will resist you. They want to resist. So I just say: Trust me on that, because I know. You really do. You have to break the system a little bit and follow your own instincts. But if your vision is right, nothing will hold you down. Nothing.

---

quote:

---

Trust your instincts. Common sense. You can go very far in life with common sense. And I apply that to politics, because some of these things — like they had open borders. Let everybody in the whole world flow into our country. That's not common sense.

They had transgender for everybody. We ended that, if you noticed. Okay?

Did you ever see some of the records? Did you see some of these boxing matches? You know, we have to protect. These women are great athletes. But we have to protect.

If you looked at the Olympics, where they had transitions—people going into the boxing—where the women had boxing, and they had a great champion, a female boxer. After one punch, she walked back to the corner and said, "I can't get hit like that. I've never been hit like this before."

I said, "This is not working." As I said before — it's so simple —men playing in women's sports. "This is not gonna work."

When you know that borders are not racist. Speech is not violence. America is good. Terrorists are bad. Men can never become women. Police are not criminals. And criminals are not victims.

Everybody should believe in the American Dream. It's real. It's there. And it's right before you. We're coming back to the American Dream.

---

quote:

---

Don't consider yourself a victim. Consider yourself a winner. In recent years, too many of our young people have really been taught to think of themselves as victims, and to blame people, and be angry. Don't be angry.

Think of yourself as a winner. The power of positive thinking. Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, from many years ago, wrote a book — The Power of Positive Thinking. And there is a lot to it. The power of positive thinking.

In America, we reject that idea that anyone is born a victim. Our heroes are the ones who take charge of their own destiny, make their own luck, and determine their own fate — despite the odds. Despite all odds. That's what happens. They take — really, they're given a little chance in many cases, very little chance of success — and they become the most successful people in the world.

Whether you were born rich or poor, Black or White, male or female — in America, anyone can be a winner. And our whole country will be cheering you on. And I'll be at the front of the line cheering you — especially because you come from this incredible university.

---

quote:

---

And finally — and most importantly — never, ever give up. Never give up! Never give up!

The old-time greats were people who had the confidence to be a little different—Teddy Roosevelt, Douglas MacArthur, George Patton, Amelia Earhart, Annie Oakley, Muhammad Ali, and so many others. So many others, far too many to name — lived their lives with pride, personality, and flair.

God only created one of you. Remember that. God created one of you. You're all different. Some are close, but nobody is the same. You're one of a kind.

So don't try to be someone else. Just be yourself.
