“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” - Emerson

In today's episode, I discuss King Leonidas and the battle of Thermopylae, where 300 Spartans took a stand against a massive Persian invasion. When asked to submit and put down their weapons, the Spartans famously responded, Molon Labe, which translates to "come and take them."

In this speech I explore the areas in your life where you can become bolder and relentless with regard to your convictions. As the world seeks to push you away from who you really are and what matters most, this motivational speech delves into the power of staying true to yourself, taking control of your mind, and when asked to trade what matters most for the fleeting relief of temporary comfort, to stand tall and pronounce, "come and take it."
