30 Famous and Short Inspirational Speeches (5 minutes or less)

  • December 13, 2023

This post is all about the best short inspirational speeches.

Short Inspirational Speeches.

If you are in need of a quick boost of inspiration and motivation, you will find that in this post. I am one of those people who loves to get motivated. That sounds weird, right?

Well, a lot of people these days tend to give motivation a hard time because they don’t believe that it has lasting effects. In other words, they believe that what’s most important is your own self-discipline, because that’s what you have to rely on when motivation isn’t there.

And while I do agree with that sentiment in general, I will never pass up a great motivational podcast or YouTube video! 😀 There’s just something about them that even if they might not have lasting effects, they do truly help pump me up in the moment to get work done. And that’s usually what matters to me the most when I am looking for them in the first place.

So, here are the very best short motivational speeches so you can get that quick fix of motivation that you’re looking for, and ultimately move closer to your goals and dreams.

Short Inspirational Speeches

Believe in yourself speeches.

If you lack confidence or you are doubting yourself, these short motivational speeches will help you to believe in yourself again.

1. Rocky’s Inspirational Speech to His Son | ROCKY BALBOA

In less than 5 minutes, you’ll watch Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) explain to his son that if he wants to have the life he desires, he needs to believe in himself. He needs to stop listening to the people that tell him who he is, and instead go be his own person, and stop looking for someone to blame when things aren’t working out for him because ultimately it’s on HIM. This is one of the greatest inspirational speeches of all time.

2. Find Your Purpose | David Goggins – Motivational Speech

David Goggins is truly incredible. A former Navy SEAL, he has broken records and ran more races than you’d imagine. But the one thing that really stands out about him is his mindset.

Listen to this video if you want to be great. He tells you exactly what you need to do to get there.

Also, if you’ve never read David Goggins’ book “Can’t Hurt Me” , I highly recommend it. He talks about his rough upbringing, and how he was able to essentially become an entirely new person to become a Navy SEAL.

3. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF – Motivational Video (ft. Jaret Grossman & Eric Thomas)

This video is all about how important it is to have the proper belief system. If you truly believe that you are one of the best, you will start acting that you are one of the best, and eventually you may just be one of the best.

4. DON’T LET YOUR DREAMS DIE – Motivational Speech

This YouTube short by Mel Robbins is so good, I had to share it. A light bulb went on in my head when I first watched this. If there is something that is always on your mind, don’t let it haunt you forever because you never put yourself out there to try it. Go and DO!

Motivational Speeches About Not Giving Up

The following short motivational speeches are all about not giving up on your dreams. If you are losing hope, these short motivational speeches will inspire you to keep going.

5. Brené Brown It’s Not The Critic Who Counts

This speech will give you chills, and it is packed with great lessons about life. Brené Brown is a researcher who went viral for a Ted Talk, and here she talks about how to overcome critics and to keep believing in yourself no matter what. If you are worried about what people think of you, you NEED to watch this.

6. Amazing Motivational Speech by Denzel Washington 

This is another video that gave me chills. The main theme of this famous speech is “ease is a greater threat to progress than hardship”. Stay consistent even when it’s hard. Easy task after easy task won’t get you to where you want to be.

7. Steve Harvey – Inspirational Speech | Motivational Short Video | Incredible You

This short motivational speech by Steve Harvey is short but impactful. If you are someone who stepped out of your comfort zone to pursue something really difficult, and you’re thinking about giving up, this speech may just prevent you from doing so.

8. Ed Mylett on The Power of One More

Ed Mylett shares the story of how his father stayed sober until his dying day, and how Ed himself uses that same philosophy to never give up. Personal stories like these are always the most inspiring.

By the way, if you REALLY want to push yourself and become the best, read Ed Mylett’s most recent book on this same topic, “The Power Of One More” .

Motivational Speeches If You’re Feeling Behind

Are you feeling behind in life? If so, let’s change that. Watch these videos to be reminded that you are on your own unique path. You have no competition other than your past self. These short motivational videos will help you believe that.

9. Before You Feel Pressure – WATCH THIS | by Jay Shetty

Jay Shetty talks to a school class about how there’s no one “perfect” life timeline to follow, and that we are all on our own clock. 

10. Kevin Hart Motivational Speech

If you’ve made mistakes in your life (haven’t we all) this is a great story from Kevin Hart (famous comedian and actor) that will remind you of the power of making mistakes and pushing through hard times.

11. Oprah Winfrey | 5 Minutes For The NEXT 50 Years of Your LIFE

In this video, Oprah talks about the importance of really knowing who you are and what you want in your life. She talks about surrounding yourself with great people, and how to have enormous success. “Let excellence be your brand.”

Listen To These If You Need Perspective

Sometimes in life, we get so caught up in the day to day that we forget what truly matters – the people we love. If you are having trouble with something in life, give these videos a listen, because they just might help you realize what is really important.

12. Arnold Schwarzenegger – Organize Your Day | 1 MINUTE MOTIVATIONAL VIDEO

Are you the kind of person who always complains that you don’t have enough time to do something? If so, you’re not alone. We are all busy humans, running around doing a million things. But if you aren’t prioritizing what you know you should be doing, listen to this video.

13. How to Judge Your Life Using 3 Simple Questions | Brendon Burchard Speech| Goalcast

Have you ever heard of Mortality Motivation? It’s essentially what it sounds like… being motivated by the impending reality of your death. It sounds a little morbid, but it’s actually quite beautiful and it can be really beneficial if you harness it for good.

In this video by motivational speaker Brendon Burchard, he shares how a car accident when he was 19 gave him mortality motivation and changed everything for him.

14. FALL, SUFFER AND LEARN | MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH BY OPRAH WINFREY

This speech by Oprah was given to Harvard graduates, and it’s a unique speech because she talks about failing, even after the major success of her television show for over 20 years.

It’s refreshing to hear that even the most successful people fail. What really matters, though, is what you do with your failure. Do you learn from it and move on? Or do you give up?

15. YOU VS YOU – Best Motivational Video

This is a pretty intense video about competition. If your #1 competition is someone else, you need to change your perspective. Your only competition is YOU. The only thing preventing you from moving forward is you.

16. The Speech That Brought This Entire School To Tears

This is a speech about a man who never really paid much attention to his mother, until she passed away. It’s an emotional reminder to cherish the time you have with your loved ones, because you never know if the next time you see them will be the last time.

In my opinion, this speaker embodies many qualities of the best motivational speakers because he really knows how to capture the audience’s attention and pull on their heart strings.

17. 5 Minutes to Start Your Day Right! – MORNING MOTIVATION

This motivational speech is by a Navy SEAL who will remind you to start each day with a task completed, respect everyone, take risks, step up during tough times, and never give up. If you do these things, the next generation, and the generations that follow, will live better lives than we live today.

18. The Real You – Jim Carrey

This video is one of the best motivational speech examples because it reminds you of something so important: sometimes we can be so focused on earning more money, gaining fame, and becoming admired that we lose ourselves or we lose sight of what’s really important to us in the process.

Jim Carrey talks about how he is a great example of that. He got all of the money, fame, and admiration, and admits that that wasn’t really who he was. Sometimes it’s nice to be reminded that money and fame, or even getting to the top of the corporate ladder, while nice, aren’t going to be the thing that brings you fulfillment when it’s all said and done.

19. Ed Mylett Motivational Speech

I posted another motivational video by Ed Mylett above, but if you don’t know much about him, prepare to have your world rocked. He’s probably my absolute favorite motivational speaker because he is successful and he works hard, but he’s also (seemingly) a kind, family guy who’s been through a few things.

In this video, he talks about being “the one” that changed his family tree. Take a listen because I’m sure it’ll get you thinking on whether or not you can be “the one” in YOUR family.

P.S. If you love personal growth content, you should check out Ed Mylett’s podcast . I listen to it every week and it is one of my favorites.

20. If You Feel LOST, LAZY & UNMOTIVATED In Life, WATCH THIS! | Tony Robbins Motivation

If you are someone who is constantly blaming others or your circumstances for your unhappiness, you need to listen to this video by Tony Robbins . Bad things happen to us all, it’s up to you to focus on what you can control.

Great Inspirational Speeches About Hard Work

How hard do you think you work? Could you be doing more? If there’s a little voice inside of your heart that knows you could be doing more and better, these motivational videos about the value of hard work will help you push yourself.

And a side note: your chances of having good luck increase the harder and longer you work.

21. You’re Not Tired, You’re Just Weak – David Goggins Motivation

If you’re feeling lazy or like you don’t want to do something, watch this video til 2:25 . It will give you the push you need to put your head down and do the work. It’ll remind you to keep pursuing your goals and to keep challenging yourself. Key takeaway: push yourself beyond your perceived limits.

22. Hard Work & Patience – A Gary Vaynerchuk Original Film

If you want to be motivated to work hard, listen to Gary Vaynerchuk. Gary Vaynerchuk is a creative genius known for his marketing tactics. This famous motivational speech is all about playing “the long game”, as in, working for a long time and having patience instead of working hard for a short period of time and expecting to win quickly.

23. OBSESSION – Best Motivational Speech

This is one of my favorite short motivational speeches because it makes me feel a little more normal for being “weird”. I’m the kind of person who chooses to work on the weekends instead of hanging out with people. Crazy, right? But it’s because I’m working toward a dream of mine and it’s something that’s really important to me. The most important thing to remember: it’s okay to devote yourself to something. It’s the only way to get what you want in life.

24. WORK LIKE HELL – Best Motivational Video

This is a series of motivational speeches about doing a little bit more and outworking your competition. I’m not going to lie – I’m up late writing this post and listening to this very video is what’s motivating me to keep going.

25. The video EVERY woman should watch!

Whether or not you’re a Rachel Hollis fan may be up for debate (and that’s okay!) but I happen to think she’s a great motivational speaker. This entire speech will inspire you to work hard and take massive action – today.

26. NEVER SURRENDER – Powerful Motivational Speech (by Kobe Bryant)

This one minute video by the late Kobe Bryant is one of the most famous short speeches. I read a book recently by his former personal trainer and I learned that Kobe really outworked everyone. He talks about a quote in this video that really stuck with him, and I think it’s great advice if you’re the kind of person who needs motivation to keep working hard.

Motivational Speeches About Working Smart

Have you ever heard the saying “work smarter, not harder”? That saying is all about ensuring that the work you are doing is actually efficient. Are you getting to where you want to go with all of the work that you are putting in? Are you getting closer to your goals and your dreams? Or are you sprinting like a hamster on a wheel and just running in circles?

Here are great videos on the importance of working hard but also working intentionally.

27. SET SYSTEMS RATHER THAN GOALS – Motivational Speech – James Clear

A goal gives you a sense of direction, but if you don’t spell out precisely how you are going to get to a goal, it is useless. You must develop systems. Listen to this James Clear video to gain valuable life lessons.

By the way, James Clear is an author who wrote perhaps my favorite book of all time: “Atomic Habits” . It’s life-changing if you haven’t read it yet.

28. Matthew McConaughey | 5 Minutes for the NEXT 50 Years of Your LIFE

This is one of the best motivational speeches of all time about how to live a great life for YOU. It’s filled with little pieces of wisdom that’ll really get you thinking about how you live your life and in what direction you want to go.

29. Visualization is the key – Bob Proctor

Do you believe in the Law of Attraction? If not, I have to say I’m surprised! I’ve experienced it in my own life more than once, and it is incredibly powerful. Here’s a great video that sums up the power of visualization, and if you want to learn more about the Law of Attraction or manifestation in general, read this post .

This video shows the true power of words, thoughts, and feelings that you have.

30. How to Stay Motivated – Carla Harris

Here is a YouTube short with very practical advice from Carla Harris on HOW to stay motivated. It’s all about having a vision!

Best Motivational Speeches About Life

These are the top 15  best motivational speeches  about life to help motivate and inspire you!

Every day our motivational levels will waiver but if you can figure out how to stay motivated you will set yourself for an incredible amount of success in life.

Tony Robbins talks about this as push vs. pull motivation . Push motivation is usually where you have to push yourself to do something and oftentimes include a lot of willpower. Pull motivation is much easier, more natural, and flows easily as you want to do the specific event.

In this Psychology Today article it says that “Pull-based motivation is about tapping the desire to achieve something. It’s about establishing a quest and taking action not to remove a current pain, but to bring yourself closer to a deeply desired end. Maybe it’s completing a marathon or learning to play guitar.”

Ultimately you want to find activities in life that have you being pulled to do them. That usually happens when you begin to align your life with your goals, values, and daily routines. 

Motivation will determine how great your life ends up being. If you want to change your life you have to get moving, change your physiology, and create powerful habits. I listen to one of the videos as morning motivation every single day!

Here are the 15  best motivational speeches to help you get inspired!

Top 15 Best Motivational Speeches

1.) tony robbins – why we do what we do (tedx speech).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cpc-t-Uwv1I&list=PL3JDCD84BjcJv0_bOMqejyCBBz8JCZ_Ks&index=5

Imagine speaking in front of the most wealthy and successful individuals in the world — what advice could you possibly give to billionaires and CEO’s?

2. Steve Jobs – 2005 Standford Commencement Speech

Steve Jobs Harvard commencement speech is one of the best motivational speeches of all time, not to mention the best commencement speech ever. While many of us admire Jobs and love his work, he was often very misunderstood by the masses. This rare and candid speech will show you how to follow your passion and create a life you love.

And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. You have to trust in something – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever that somehow the dots will connect in the future.” — Steve Jobs

3. Les Brown – Georgia Dome Speech

Les Brown has some of the best motivational speeches ever. He is a world renown speaker, author, and trainer that has accomplished amazing feats in his life.

While his list of accolades is impressive when you learn where he came from it’s even more so. Enjoy this amazing speech live from the Georgia Dome in front of 30,000 people!

This is one of my favorites of all time. When things aren’t working, I listen to this inspirational speech about success to overcome challenges.

4. David Goggins – Driven

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIrT1eHs1b0&t=1571s

David Goggins is arguably the most badass human being ever. He’s been a Navy Seal, Army Ranger, ultra-marathon runner, and holds the pull-up record for most pull-ups in a 24 hour period (4,030)! When I think of the best motivational speeches I can’t help but add David Goggins!

5. Arnold Schwarzenegger – 6 Rules of Success (Commencement Speech)

Regardless of your political views, it’s hard to admit that Arnold has not accomplished an incredible amount in his lifetime. From moving to Austria to America to becoming a bodybuilder, Mr. Olympia champion, top-grossing actor, and governor of California.

6. Tony Robbins – New Year, New You

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIHmty265Us

This is probably the video that will get you to reshape your life and vision more than most. If you’ve ever set a resolution only to fail while it’s still January (who hasn’t done that?) this video is for you.

Most of all, Tony talks in-depth about how to make lasting changes in your life. Instead of focusing on resolutions or abstract goals, focus on what really matters to make the change you need!

This is one of the best motivational speeches about life I’ve ever heard. Anytime I’m in a rut or feeling stuck, I always play this and get super inspired.

7. Mel Robbins – Secret to Self-Motivation

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoWnfCoFdYs

Mel Robbins is a top speaker and best-selling author after creating “ The 5-Second Rule ” and sharing it with the world. After getting to meet her in person, I can say she is incredibly inspiring and loves to help people.

8. Terry Crews Motivational Speech

Terry Crews is well known by many but his backstory & route to success is even more impressive!

9. Denzel Washington – Commencement Speech at Dillard University

Who doesn’t love Denzel Washington? His acting is incredible but his speech about succeeding in life is one of his truly epic performances. If you feel lost or disappointed with your life, this is a great video to get you motivated!

10. Admiral William H. McRaven – University of Texas At Austin

More Motivational Speeches About Life

11. extreme ownership with jocko willink (tedx speech).

Jocko Willink is a retired, ex-Navy Seal and also the best-selling author of “ Extreme Ownership .” If you don’t follow him on Twitter I highly recommend it as he seems like one of the most disciplined human beings alive.

After seeing him at a “ Success Live ” seminar I can say his intensity his second to none. Jocko gives one of the best motivational speeches ever with this TEDx talk!

12. J.K. Rowling – Harvard Commencement Speech

J.K. Rowling has an incredible story. From a broke waitress barely able to survive turned into one of the best-selling authors of all time. She has gone on to publish the Harry Potter series that also turned into one of the most successful movie franchises ever.

I love this quote from her epic motivational speech:

We do not need magic to change the world, we carry all the power we need inside ourselves already: we have the power to imagine better.”

13. Inky Johnson – One of the Most Epic Speeches About Life

Inky Johnson gives one of the best speeches about life challenges ever. After working his entire life to make it to the NFL, a freak injury in college paralyzed his right arm entirely. But instead of letting this injury ruin his life he turned his pain into passion by becoming a motivational speaker.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AH1OFoBfDRM

14. Eric Thomas – Motivation Addicts Speech

Eric Thomas aka “ET the Hip Hop Preacher” is one of the world  best motivational speakers of all time! In fact, if you type in motivational videos on Youtube his videos almost always come up first.

He is so passionate it’s hard to not love his message. His motivational speeches have taken over and this is one of my all-time favorites!

15. Jim Carrey Commencement Speech at Maharishi University of Management

Jim Carrey is often portrayed negatively in the media as of late but I think he’s incredible. He genuinely understands what’s important in life and wants to help others find the way to success. Jim used his vision to create an epic life and shares his gift with the world in this inspirational speech about life.

This might be the best motivational quote I’ve ever heard. Never forget, always follow your passion:

I learned many great lessons from my father — not the least of which is that you can fail at what you don’t want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you  love .”

16. Ellen DeGeneres: Tulane University Commencement Speech

Ellen DeGeneres has overcome a lot of odds in her life and created a truly epic life. I love how much wisdom, inspiration, and humor is in this amazing speech about life. She is an incredible person who continues to inspire millions of people around the globe.

Really, when I look back on it, I wouldn’t change a thing. I mean, it was so important for me to lose everything because I found out what the most important thing is … to be true to yourself. Ultimately, that’s what’s gotten me to this place. I don’t live in fear. I’m free. I have no secrets and I know I’ll always be OK, because no matter what, I know who I am.”

17. Sheryl Sandberg Commencement Speech

Sheryl Sandberg is another amazing motivational speaker and COO of Facebook. Her speeches and words have helped inspire women worldwide.

18. Oprah Winfrey – Harvard Commencement Speech

Oprah is one of my favorite inspirational stories about perseverance of all-time. She had such a difficult childhood it’s nearly impossible for most people to even believe.

Yet she went on to become one of the most successful, wealthy, and influential people the world has ever seen. I love her message of positivity and fulfilling your dreams in life.

19. Will Smith Inspirational Speech – Pursuit of Happiness

This movie is phenomenal and really invokes a ton of emotion and feelings in this particular scene. Remember, never listen to anyone telling you what’s possible!

Don’t ever let somebody tell you … you can’t do something. Not even me. All right? You got a dream. You gotta protect it. People can’t do something themselves, they want to tell you can’t do it. If you want something, go get it. Period.”

Best Sports Motivational Speeches

Sports have created some of the best motivational speeches ever. Fake or real, these are some of the most popular motivational speeches from Hollywood!

20. Al Pacino – Any Given Sunday Speech

As a huge movie fan, I love this speech and consider it the best sports motivational speeches of all time. Al Pacino is an amazing actor and he delivers an incredible speech to motivate his team to victory.

“ On this team, we fight for that inch. On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We CLAW with our fingernails for that inch. Cause we know when we add up all those inches that’s going to make the fucking difference. Between WINNING and LOSING…between LIVING and DYING. ”

21. Herb Brooks – Miracle Speech

While the speech is great it’s even better because it’s based on a true story about the Olympic team in the 1980’s! This speech propelled the U.S. to beat the Soviet Union and become the gold meal champions!

As Herb said, “ Great moments are born from great opportunity .”

22. Rocky Motivational Speech

Rocky might be the best motivational video ever. While the original is a little outdated there have been so many sequels it continues to stay relevant in mainstream culture.

If you learn about the story behind the movie it’s even more inspirational. At the time Sylvester Stallone was so broke he had to sell his dog and was sleeping on park benches. After watching a boxing match he got motivated and wrote the script that would change his life.

Check out my favorite quote from the Rocky motivational speech:

The world ain’t’ all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a mean and nasty place. And I don’t care how tough you are it’ll beat to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is going to hit as hard as life. It ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! “

23. Ray Lewis & Eric Thomas – “Beast” Motivational Speech

This inspirational speech is from two icons – Ray Lewis and Eric Thomas. Ray is a former hall of fame NFL player who knows how to generate hype, excitement, and enthusiasm from his teammates. This was a no-brainer when selecting the best sports motivational speeches.

Remember as Eric Thomas said, “ Sleep, sleep is for people who are broke. I got an opportunity to make a dream become a reality. ”

24. Best Motivational Sports Speech 

The crazy thing about this inspirational speech is that it’s a true story!  This epic speech was delivered to a group of high school football players.

25. Tom Brady – Best Motivational Video To Prove Haters Wrong

Tom Brady is the greatest player of all time. He was doubted from the moment he walked into the NFL combine. Yet, he is still playing the game 20+ years later and is arguably the best quarterback of all time.

He’s proven the haters wrong with his relentless work ethic, consistent performance, and longevity in a physically challenging sport. I love this motivational video!

Remember what Tom Brady said, “ To me what separates good players from great players is to execute under pressure. ”

Enjoy the best motivational speeches to give you the momentum to take the next step!

18 Short Speeches About Life

' src=

At first, I set out to craft a speech about life . But as I delved deeper into the topic, I realized that summing up the vast tapestry of life in a single speech is a tall order. Life is not just one color or a single note; it’s a vibrant spectrum, a rainbow of experiences, moments, highs, lows, lessons, and memories. Each hue represents a different chapter, emotion, or milestone that contributes to our unique stories.

I also recognize that high school students might come across these words. I fondly recall my own school days when teachers would challenge us to pen down our thoughts on life. Such assignments, seemingly simple on the surface, often pushed us to self-reflection and growth.

With these memories and audiences in mind, I present to you not just one, but multiple speeches on life. Through these, I aim to touch upon the myriad facets of our existence, hoping that each reader, regardless of their age or journey, finds a sliver of resonance, a hint of inspiration, or a moment of reflection.

Speeches about life resonate with all of us because life, in its vastness and complexity, is the shared journey we all navigate. It’s filled with rainbows of experiences, highs and lows, and tales of courage, fear, triumphs, and setbacks.

Through these speeches, we get a window into the varied perspectives, learnings, and stories of others. They offer a mirror to our own experiences, sometimes teaching us, sometimes validating our feelings, and often inspiring us to see our path in a new light.

Moreover, life speeches bridge the gap between generations.

From a teenager in high school to a professional in their prime, everyone can find a piece of wisdom or an echo of their own story in these words.

By discussing life, we unite in our shared human experience, finding solace in the thought that we’re not alone in our struggles or joys. This universality, this binding thread, is what makes speeches about life timeless and impactful.

I have delivered these speeches in Toastmasters . I share these speeches when I teach about life and leadership. I have written them in the hope that you too will be inspired to write your speech about life and be an inspiration to others.

How to Shine in Q&A Sessions

A speech about life aims to provide insights, share personal experiences, motivate the audience, or encourage introspection about the various aspects of human existence.

They can be both. Some speakers draw from their personal journeys and lessons learned, while others tap into universal truths and shared human experiences.

No, everyday experiences can provide profound insights. It’s about the message and the perspective, not necessarily the drama of the events.

Using storytelling, anecdotes, humor, and asking thought-provoking questions can make your speech more engaging. Ensure that the content resonates with the audience’s experiences and emotions.

Focus on authenticity, clarity of message, and audience engagement. Also, incorporating relatable stories or analogies can make the content memorable.

Embrace the Power of Visualization: See yourself achieving your goals in vivid detail. Feel the accomplishment, the pride. Visualization programs your brain for success. 24.

Celebrate How Far You’ve Come: Look back and acknowledge your progress. Seeing how far you’ve come will motivate you to keep pushing forward. 27. Enjoy the Journey: Success takes time. Savor the learning experiences, the connections you make, and the journey itself. The road to achieving your dreams can be just as fulfilling as the destination. 28. Own Your Story: We all have a unique narrative. Embrace your experiences, both triumphs and challenges, because they shape who you are and the path you take to success. 29. Become a Master of Focus: Distractions are everywhere. Learn to manage your time effectively, prioritize ruthlessly, and create a focused environment to conquer your goals. 30. Fuel Your Body and Mind: Success is a marathon, not a sprint. Take care of yourself by eating healthy, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly. A healthy body fuels a sharp mind.

31. Develop Grit: There will be setbacks, but don’t let them define you. Cultivate resilience, the ability to bounce back from challenges and persist even when things get tough. 32. Learn to Fail Forward: Failure is inevitable, but it’s not a dead end. Learn from your mistakes, adapt your approach, and use those experiences as stepping stones to success. 33. Embrace Continuous Learning: The world is constantly evolving. Stay curious, read widely, and seek out opportunities to develop new skills. A growth mindset is key to staying ahead. 34. Find Your Cheerleaders: Surround yourself with positive, supportive people who believe in you. Their encouragement will lift you up on challenging days. 35. Practice Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself. Everyone makes mistakes. Forgive yourself, learn, and move on. 36. Unleash Your Creativity: Don’t be afraid to think outside the box. Challenge the status quo, innovate, and find creative solutions to problems. 37. Find Your Why and Revisit It Often: Reconnect with your core purpose, that fire that ignites your passion. Remembering your “why” will reignite your motivation when the path gets tough.

Motivational Speech for Success in Life - 10 Lines, Short and Long Speech

  • Motivational Speech for Success in Life -

Success is sometimes defined as having the ability to accomplish your life's goals, whatever they may be. Success is something you must define for yourself; no one else can. Achieving desired visions and objectives is a requirement for success. One of the most important essential components of obtaining success in life is understanding what success means to you personally. The path to success is often paved with numerous starts, pauses, and bumps along the way, and it is not always straight or smooth.

Motivational Speech for Success in Life - 10 Lines, Short and Long Speech

Success can be a measure of your level of happiness and fulfilment.

There is no hope of success in any field of effort without positivity, ambition, excitement, and a willingness to put in a lot of effort.

Any success, no matter how big or small, is the result of your own labour, so you should rejoice in it. This will inspire you to strive for even greater success.

Make a list of your goals and aspirations for many aspects of your life.

Strive to achieve only one goal with your attention before moving on to another and so forth.

To be prepared for expected or surprising chances, we must exercise our skills and knowledge every day.

Success is attainable via ambition. You get there by being persistent.

Success is the ability to bounce back from failure to failure without losing motivation.

Even though doing hard work is difficult, it is necessary to make our lives easier. So keep doing hard work without losing hope.

Your good ideas and positive behaviours must cooperate for you to succeed.

Success is the capacity to lead the life you desire, doing what you find most enjoyable while surrounded by others you admire and respect. Success comes from knowing that you gave it your all in order to perform as well as you possibly could. You must first define success for yourself in order to achieve it. Success doesn't follow any particular path; for instance, it doesn't matter who you were in the past; what matters is who you are now. The finest path to success is anything but a straight one; it contains many thrilling turns and, occasionally, U-turns in a person's life. Not everyone is creative from birth.

Some people have a major deficiency where they think, "I'll be that one day," "the moment isn't right," "I can't do it," etc. The key element that converts sound reasoning into prompt action is motivation. It converts a good idea into a company and has a positive impact on the world. Success has a significant impact on a person's life. We must understand that neither success nor failure is definitive or a dead end; rather, it is the fortitude to move on that counts. The key to success in life is having the bravery and tenacity to persevere with your ambitions.

Success takes time to achieve because it is not something that can be done overnight. We must have faith that putting forth effort will yield fruitful results.

Success is the goal attained after adversity and tenacity. It entails a commitment to moving your dreams and goals forward in a predetermined manner. It is not given instantly. Since success is more than just a final destination, you should enjoy the preparation component of your road to success. We don't arrive at success in a single day. Success is entirely dependent on the daily decisions, activities, and experiences you make for yourself regardless of how large or tiny they are. Being true to who you are and how you decide to react to any situation that arises in your life are the keys to success.

Happiness and fulfilment are the true indicators of success. It's crucial that you follow your passion and your heart. Follow your objectives and desires instead of following someone else's. Since you are not another person, you should act in accordance with your identity and capabilities to succeed in real life. Some of us might continue your education, some might work in business, and some might work for your family.

Each choice would have its own opportunities and difficulties. You must not think about the implications and rather simply focus on your actions. If you initially fail, don't give up; instead, keep trying. Keep in mind that mistakes teach you important lessons and aid in making the right decisions. In our early years, we were exposed to a variety of tales, including "the story of the ant who tried to climb the mountain" and "slow and steady wins the race" , among others. The unifying lesson in all of these tales is that you should keep trying until you succeed and that even if you go slowly but steadily, you will eventually succeed. It's an adventure to live. Take risks in life because success in life comes to those who have the courage to face their concerns and take calculated risks.

Life is not always easy. A student's path to success begins with the learning process .Hard times are the source of strength to all great legends who had a difficult life. Numerous noble souls who endured unbearable suffering during their lives are documented in history. In the end, it was those who guided the planet. those who, despite facing challenges, hardships, and sorrows, not only improved their own lives but also brought about a revolutionary change in the world.

Many people assess their success in relation to that of others. They view it as failure if they own a car while others own a larger one. People frequently forget that every person in the world is born with specific abilities and limits. Additionally, it is not a good idea to compare yourself to others; instead, you should look at your past and present, make goals for the future, and disregard what others have accomplished. Your faith and patience are your two most important resources for achieving true success.

In this world, everyone aspires to be successful, but only a select few are actually able to experience it. Success is challenging but not impossible. Numerous sacrifices, hard work, dedication, and time management are needed. Success in life is undoubtedly possible for those who are determined and have a strong desire to realise their goals.

12 Inspirational Speeches That Teach You the Most Valuable Life Lessons

' src=

The most valuable thing an experienced person has is their experience. People make mistakes, learn from them, and adapt their life around them to become better people. Those people would then tell tales to others to help teach those lessons so that others would not have to make the same mistakes.

People still tell these stories today but in a slightly different format — they use speeches to express their experiences. Here are some valuable life lessons you can learn from some of the greatest inspirational speeches:

1. JK Rowling teaches us to not fear failure no matter how bad things become

It is a well-known fact that JK Rowling’s now-famous Harry Potter series was turned down by several publishers before it was finally picked up. Those publishers are likely kicking themselves in the pants right now. However, before that, JK Rowling was in a fairly dire situation and was on the brink of failure. Despite being turned down time and time again, she kept trying. Her efforts paid off. Harry Potter is now a ubiquitous character in today’s world culture. Despite failing over and over again, Rowling kept trying and fulfilled her dreams. You can watch her deliver some valuable life lessons in her Harvard commencement speech video above.

2. Steve Jobs teaches us to never settle

Steve Jobs had a fairly tumultuous life. He co-founded Apple, was kicked out of the company, came back, and then re-defined the mobile phone space with the iPhone. Even if iPhones aren’t the rage they once were, its iconic value is forever written in stone. One thing Jobs never did was settle. He lived life on his own terms and was rewarded for it by being dubbed one of the most revolutionary voices in technology of our time. In the Stanford commencement speech above, Jobs explains how you should never settle for what someone else wants out of your life. It’s your life and you should do what you want with it.

3. Admiral William H McRaven teaches us to make our beds every day

Anyone who has gone through the basic training of a military service will tell you it’s pretty difficult. However, every seemingly obnoxious step is actually a life lesson in disguise. This even applies to flawlessly making one’s bed every single morning. As Admiral William H McRaven teaches us, recruits are taught to make their beds every morning to remind them that even the little things in life matter. After all, how can you be expected to handle the biggest obstacles in your life if you can’t even handle the small and the mundane like making your bed every day? You can watch the entire speech in the video above.

4. Author David Foster Wallace teaches us that we’re a part of a greater existence

David Foster Wallace found fame in 1987 with his book The Broom of the System . Nearly 20 years later in 2005 he game a commencement speech at Kenyon College that is worth listening to at least once. In his speech, he reminds us that was are but a part of a huge, dynamic, ever changing interaction of life forms. In order to truly experience life, we need to leave our personal bubbles and interact with others even if it’s in an unpleasant way. Wallace states, “It will actually be within your power to experience a crowded, hot, slow, consumer-hell type situation as not only meaningful, but sacred, on fire with the same force that made the stars: love, fellowship, the mystical oneness of all things deep down.” You can watch the whole speech above.

5. Stephen Colbert teaches us that life isn’t something you can plan

If there is anyone who knows about improvisation, it’s comedian Stephen Colbert. In his commencement speech at Northwestern University in 2011, Colbert reminded students that you cannot plan life. Life throws too many curve balls. There are too many unpredictable things that can happen. The most successful and happy people are not those who have a plan, but those who can roll with the punches and overcome the obstacles. He goes on to site his time as an improv comic and how all of the actors working together to create a scene out of literally nothing are all working for one another. He states that like improv comedy, you don’t know what happens next in life. You just make it up as you go along. You can watch the whole speech above.

6. Kurt Vonnegut teaches us to not sweat the small stuff

Some of our younger readers may not know Kurt Vonnegut. He is a famous author that found of of his success during the middle of last century. In 1999, Kurt Vonnegut was at Agnes Scott College giving a commencement speech. During the speech, he mentioned that in order to live a more complete life, people needed to let stuff go. He argued that you cannot reasonably expect others to forgive you for your mistakes if you cannot forgive others and that you cannot live life fostering a personal vendetta against others.

7. Neil Gaiman teaches us that success can be distracting.

Neil Gaiman is most known for his work in a number of literary mediums including journalism, comic books, and novels. In 2012, Gaiman gave a speech at the University of the Arts where he talked about success. He stated that when you become successful, you may be unintentionally swayed from performing the actions that made you successful. Gaiman recalled his early success and how he felt pressured to answer emails all day long and it actually prevented him from writing as much as he wanted. So he reminds us to keep doing what makes us successful and to not let others get in the way.

8. Barack Obama’s life lessons teaches us that you really can beat the odds

We know that not everyone likes Barack Obama but that doesn’t mean the man can’t deliver an amazing speech. In this 2004 keynote speech at the Democratic National Convenction, Obama reminds that it is possible to beat the odds and become something great. He cites his own upbringing as an example and how he was never expected to make it as far as he did. It shows that when you’re passionate about something and when you try hard enough, you can accomplish almost anything. It’s important to note that Obama talks about this in 2004 and would become the President of the United States just four years later.

9. Robin Roberts reminds us that we each have the courage to overcome challenges

Robin Roberts knows a thing or two about courage. She is a breast cancer survivor and has done battle with a rare blood disease called myelodysplastic syndrome. Her sister once had to donate bone marrow just so Robin could remain alive. She was also ESPN’s first African American broadcaster in the early 1990’s. She’s a woman who works in an industry predominately populated by men. So when Robin Roberts takes the stage at the ESPYs and delivers a short lecture on having courage, we would do well to listen!

10. Martin Luther King Jr. reminds us that some things are more important than success

We all know the story of Martin Luther King Jr. So much so that we have a day of the year to celebrate him as a national holiday here in the United States. Most of us have listening to segments of his famous speech where he told the world about a dream he had. The main message of his famous speech is that racial inequalities needed to end and he was absolutely right. However, he also reminds us that there are things that are more important than success such as equal rights and treating each other with respect and kindness. If you somehow made it through school without watching the famous speech, we’ve got it linked above.

11. Jim Carrey reminds us that even if you keep it safe, you can still fail so you might as well go big

Jim Carrey delivered a commencement speech at Maharishi University recently that went absolutely viral. You may know it as the one minute video that will change your life. They weren’t lying but they weren’t telling the whole truth because the speech was actually 28 minutes long. During the speech, Carrey talks about his father who wanted to be a comedian but decided to take the safe route and become an accountant. As it turns out, his father was laid off and his family ended up poor anyway. With that, Carrey tells us that you can still end up failing even if you play it safe so you might as well swing for the fences and do what you want to do.

12. Bill Murray teaches us that it’s the hard times that determine if someone really loves you

You may have heard the story about Bill Murray crashing someone’s bachelor party and delivering a speech. It turns out the speech was both short and fairly epic. During the speech, Bill Murray challenged the bachelors to travel around the world with the women they love and go to places that are difficult to go to and deal with. He says if you can get back to the United States and you still love each other, then you should get married right then and there. It’s a great message. It’s easy to love one another when times are good but do you still love each other when the times are bad? If so, that’s true love according to Bill Murray.

Final thoughts

Inspiration comes from everywhere and from anyone. There are a countless number of speeches and stories that can teach us an incalculable number of life lessons.

All these speeches almost share the same message: Don’t be afraid to fail and keep trying.

If you also want to live your best life like the above successful people, this is what you should start doing:

You’ll Only Live Your Best Life Once You Step Out

At the end of the day, everything is inspirational. It’s just a matter of finding the message that we need to hear to change our lives.

Speech on Aim of My Life for Students in English

Speech my aim in life can be a dicey one. Since the presenter may have a particular aim that the audience might find unrelatable or irrelevant to them according to their perspective. Ambition is often associated with a negative terminology of one being greedy and selfish. The speaker who is assigned to deliver my aim in life speech can focus on the direction ambition can give to an individual. Ambition surely is a very individualistic process of discovering one aim, especially for a student. In this article, of speech on aim in my life, we will explore different ways of delivering it. It can be a long speech on the aim of life student or a short my aim in life speech.

Long and Short Speech on Aim of My Life

Long speech on aim of my life.

This type of long speech on aim in life can be helpful for students in grades 8-12 who can elaborate on the importance of aim and speak about their ambitions as well.

Good morning everyone, respected principal, teachers, and my dear friends, I am Xyz (mention your name) here to talk about the aim of my life. Let me first ask all of you, my friends, what are your ambitions? Have you ever thought about what it is to have an aim in life is? Ambition is a very subjective term it means different to different people. The common ground for everyone when one thinks of aim is the desire to achieve something by doing something that they are passionate about and interested in.

It is a very common question that our peers and even elders ask what is your aim in life? Many people find it difficult to decide on one specific aim in particular some have multiple interests and want to excel in all, which is quite a task. I have always believed that instead of being a jack of all trades one needs to be a master of one. 

I have always seen my elder brother having an aim throughout his school life. Sometimes it was to score well in exams, be the school captain and sometimes it was to get admission to his desired university. It was through him that I understood having ambition is so important, it is the source of inspiration and the driving force behind leading a fulfilling life.

Having an aim drives you to have a purpose in life and to continuously keep on working towards it. To discover your aim, one must explore different interests and keep on trying. One can have a short-term goal that can also be the aim to be fulfilled. And other kinds of ambitions can be professional or personal. Aimless people have no driving force that inspires them to wake up every morning to get to work and fulfil their ambitions. And they often fall prey to the vicious cycle of lethargy, inactiveness, lack of motivation, or will to do better or get anywhere in life. And thus one must be ambitious.

I was also one among those who had many interests and tried to do everything, it was a challenge to sit still and think about something that I am truly passionate about and ambitious enough to achieve as well. I have always been philanthropic thanks to my grandfather who has always inculcated this value in me since I was a little girl/boy.

During one such visit with my grandfather where I was accompanying him to assist in his medical aid program to the underprivileged, I realized I want to do just this. I want to become a doctor just like my grandfather. It was a shocker for my family when I told them this, they reasoned saying since I was always into extracurricular activities and arts completely diving into such an academic route will require hard work and a lot of sacrifices.

Having an ambition doesn’t make the mountain of hurdles and obstacles smaller it just makes the climb easier and gives strength to keep going. I am preparing and working hard in all the subjects that I need to for scoring well in the entrance exam. Only then I can attend a prestigious university.

Everything in life needs our effort, time, and patience no matter what field it is. Nothing is served on a silver platter, one might think it would be so much better to enjoy than to work hard. Well, decide what it is that you want to achieve, having an aim will make all the hard work worthwhile. I know some of my friends want to become, teachers, singers, actors, mathematicians, dancers, sportsmen. I wish you all the best to work and have patience even when it gets difficult. 

Short Speech on Aim of My Life

This short speech on the aim of life student will find it very easy to deliver and understand its meaning. Very helpful for students in grades 4-7.

Good morning everyone, I am ABC (mention your name) here to speak about the aim of my life. We all have dreams and multiple ones that we wish would come true. Ambition and aim on the other hand do not work like that, one cannot wish for it to come true. When dreams become realistic goals we can consider them as our aim in life to be achieved so we feel worthy and happy.

  

My aim in life is to become a teacher just like my mother, and all my teachers here have also played a part in me coming to realize my aim. My mother is the most important and inspiring person in my life. She is the best teacher, many of her students reach out to her even when they have something personal to share. A teacher is a teacher even beyond classrooms, I find so much beauty and depth in my mother’s profession that it has inspired me to take upon this as my aim as well.

I also want to have a part and role in children’s development and help them become responsible and accountable individuals. Teachers truly hold a reputation for being strict but when one has the responsibility of the next generation leaders of the country some level of strictness will push the students. The teacher understands when to be strict and when to be the student’s friend. And they walk a tightrope in balancing all of this. I hope my inspiration will help me to work hard and achieve the aim of my life.

10 Line Speech on Aim of My Life

This easy 10 line speech is helpful for students in grades 1-3 for a better understanding of my aim in my life speech. 

Ambition is the willingness to achieve something in life depending on one’s interest, it can be different for every individual.

Having an aim makes one’s life meaningful and filled with purpose. 

It inspires, motivates, and humbles an individual when they are trying to achieve something they have set their minds on.

An aimless person is directed towards hard life with no purpose and no hope.

Ambitions give us hope for a better future.

For a better tomorrow, we need to put in the work today and be dedicated to it and consider every challenge as an opportunity to get closer to achieving our ambitions.

When you achieve your aim in life you feel honoured and empowered. 

People around you also respect a successful person who puts in the work to achieve and excel at anything they have set their mind to.

My aim in life is to become a dancer, I have already enrolled myself in a course. Thanks to my mother who has always encouraged me to pursue my interests. 

I wish to become a renowned Kathak dancer and give stage performances on an international level and bring laurels to my country and make my parents proud of me.

My Life Aim Speech

Long Speech on Aim of My Life 500 Words

Hon’ble Principal, Admiring teachers and My fellow Friends – Greetings and a warm welcome to this annual Speech delivering competition.

I, Reuben Mathew of class 10, and I am standing before you all give me immense pleasure to have been assigned the topic Aim of my Life in today’s Speech Competition.

It is highly crucial to have an aim in life, as they keep us moving forward to achieve something. I hope all of you seated here agree with me. At times you may fail at the first attempt, but you shouldn’t lose your hearing. Fight all the odds, stand up against the obstacles, work hard and try to achieve your goal. Hard work will always help you achieve success in life.

Choosing the right and suitable career was never easy for me. I was just like every other person struggling to fixate on a particular aim. I would keep changing my dreams and ambitions now and then. Whenever I would come across any influential personality, I was quick to believe that I would become like that personality someday.

You too at some point would start seeing yourself at such a position, but any wrong step taken would lead you nowhere. It’s crucial to analyze yourself and think that what gives you happiness and that ultimate thought is what you desire to become in life.

Before choosing a dream, you need to see through the process. I want to share with all you here my experience through which I found my aim of life.

I always have dreamed of becoming a teacher since class fifth. My aunt is a teacher and has always been my role model. I have much admired her since always. As I grew up, I realized that aim is not like a Genie’s wish, but you need to put in a lot of effort and hard work.

It would help if you sacrificed a lot of things that other people might be pursuing during that time, even though you would have shown keen interest in doing those things. It would help if you always were determined and focus on your aim. You will get enough time to enjoy and have fun, but what comes first in line is the aim of your life.

The obstacles that I have faced in my life made me realize the important things, and that is literacy. Education plays a significant role and provides you with success, fame, and money. The reason I aim to become a teacher is that in this way, I will be able to serve my country. Unless Education has reached all corners of our country, growth and development can not be attained at peak.

I have also understood that A teacher’s life is full of challenges. I admire and revere all my teachers who have sacrificed their family life and have taken time to solve our issues and problems. A teacher needs to understand the student to explain his/her questions. A teacher remains impartial and considers every student as an equal.

Teachers are the building blocks of society, as they help in transforming a student’s life. It is essential to have passion and dedication to the teaching profession as it requires a lot of sacrifices and hard work. A big thank you and heartfelt gratitude to all my teachers. I have grown looking up to them. They have taught me and have directed me to the path towards a bright future.

I hope that one day my hard work pays off, and I will be able to achieve my aim as a Teacher. Thank you.

Speech on Life for Students

14 Best Written Speeches on Life [ Lessons, Challenges, Gift, Beautiful ]

The life is a precious gift of God. It has to be filled with true meaning and purpose. The life is joy, wonder, achievements, love, care and happiness. Also it can be the trail of ups and downs somewhere! Therefore, whatever the life or its circumstances are, one should really appreciate life.

We have written following Speeches on Life, that describe, meaning, purpose & importance of life with quotes & images. These short and long, 1,2,3,5 minutes Long Speeches are quite helpful for students.

Speech on Life | Motivational Speech about Life & its Importance

Good Morning Friends – How you all are doing? I would like to welcome you all to today’s speech ceremony. The topic has been selected by our committee, that is about Life. Probably many of us have asked ourselves this question from time to time.  This is an eternal question that we all try to answer in our baffling universe. We must ask the question ‘What does life actually mean?’ The truth is that we all deserve a fair and decent job, no matter where we come from, how much we earn, etc.

I believe that life’s true meaning can be summarized in the word Service to others.  Dalai Lama explained to his followers in the following passage the true meaning of life: “We are guests on this planet. We are here for ninety or one hundred years at the very most.

. You must do something good, something useful with your life during that period. Once you are contributing to the happiness of others, you have found the true meaning of life.”

It is inspiring to take inspiration from this philosophy because it offers immense satisfaction to the needy. True joy is found in serving God and humanity, rest is illusory. A life lived for one’s own self-interests is not a life at all. Nevertheless, I would like to say that doing your Karma and fulfilling your roles and responsibilities is important. A person must work hard and achieve goals if they have hefty packages, a great social standing and materialistic desires.

You just have to find the right balance between your own personal desires and acts of philanthropy. We do not expect you to give away all of your fortune to those in need, but we should at least develop empathy and compassion for others. Only then will the world become a safe space to dwell in if we stop continuously treating it as a battlefield and life as a battle in itself. Only then will we be able to share the message of peace and harmony throughout the world. You may not see the meaning of life until this point; you can then retreat, contemplate, and look within yourself. You will find peace and a sense of direction if you repeat this exercise.

Determine what brings you happiness in life and work on achieving it. If there is anything that makes your soul sad, you should get rid of it. With that, I would like to conclude my speech. Find your passion and pursue it; we only live once. Thank you everyone for listening to me patiently!

5 Minutes Speech on Life & its Challenges

I wish you a happy day , dear friends! I will speak today about ‘Life’. You never know what will happen next in life. Everybody wants to have a happy life and to live it to the fullest. Many people aspire to a successful career, a flourishing business, a healthy lifestyle , and so on. The best way to build a family and make friends is to choose those who can stand by you through thick and thin.

Life offers us all sorts of material possessions, but we wish that all our problems would just disappear. We all want a fulfilling life, and this could take many forms. People define their lives in different ways, for example, one person may have 3 course meals every day and another person has just a roof over their head.  It could also be having a large home or a lot of money in a bank.

In the current times, priorities are shifting, as are people’s needs. Due to high-paying jobs and increasing materialistic desires, stress levels are also increasing. People are facing serious medical conditions because of increased levels of stress, making them unable to cope with the challenges life throws their way. In turn, suicide rates and early deaths are on the rise. Therefore, stress-free living is what everyone wishes for. It is the basic human desire.

It cripples the soul when one has to put up with constant struggle and resistance. Such people become detached from life as a result. As a result, they become exhausted and feel as if they are running a marathon continuously. Afterwards, you cannot handle life anymore. Reality and our lives are also shaped by our perception. No matter how hard things may get, those with sheer will power and perseverance overcome challenges and hurdles.

There is absolutely no such thing as a cake walk in life, and it’s quite normal to become discouraged and broken. However, it is important to persevere against all odds and keep doing your best because it is clear that giving up is not an option and constant effort will certainly take you somewhere and take you closer to your goals.

In order to lead a successful life, one must have faith in oneself and never give in to testing situations. Only those who put all their efforts into pursuing their dreams will reap the benefits of their labor. Get into the chaos and embrace it happily. If life is difficult, then prove that you are also difficult and then success will surely touch your feet. This is all I have to say, thank you everyone!

Short One Minute Speech on Life is a Gift

In short, life is the most precious gift that God has given to us, and it’s up to us how we wish to use it. It’s either up to us or it’s down to us based on our actions. As such, it’s a very relevant topic to discuss in school, college, the workplace or in public. We are of course concerned about the recklessness with which our youth are wasting their lives and whiling away their time these days. 

Every single day we should be grateful to God for giving us this life and another day to achieve our goals. There is no one like you, and there never will be, so cherish your uniqueness. It surprises me how often I hear people blame God for things they don’t have and curse their liveliness, but they have no idea how valuable their lives are if they work hard to make them worthwhile.

The value of life comes from this thinking, and it is through the love of family and friends that life can be made beautiful. We also make our lives more beautiful and fulfilling by discharging our duties in our families, at work, in our communities, and in the world at large.

Speech on Life is Beautiful For Students

Good morning everyone – how are you? Let’s make today a special class by not discussing your syllabus or exams, but by discussing a topic everyone can relate to, namely… That’s life.  How do you define life? What does life mean to you?

Every day, we have the opportunity to live a meaningful life and support others in doing so. The length of your life doesn’t matter; the quality of your life matters. I would also like to acknowledge how many lives you have touched through your encouragement and love.

We all live in fear of death. Death is inevitable for everyone, but that doesn’t mean it should stop us from living our lives to the fullest or achieving our goals. The wise person is the one who is prepared to meet the end when it comes, but enjoys every moment until then. It is a feeling of preparedness. To be able to wake up to a life eternal, every individual must go through the bridge of death in their lives.

Even if you don’t believe it, the secret of life is best known by those who are not attached to anything deeply to the extent that they remain untainted by worries or shifting fortunes. Those who measure their lives in terms of people who cannot be lived without, rather than material possessions, are considered to be the real living.

The gift of life, which is given to us by God in the form of trust that we will make it meaningful in whatever way we can, is also about stewardship. As long as we keep this in the back of our minds, we will never forget that we are responsible for the opportunities, the treasures, and the talents he has given us.

This is in line with the teachings of Jesus, who stated, “Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment.” Likewise, good deeds will definitely be rewarded in this world, and that evil which takes place will be put right.

Al pacino any given Sunday Speech:

Al Pacino’s speech in the movie “Any Given Sunday” is a powerful and inspiring monologue that has become iconic over the years. It is a rallying cry for those who are faced with struggles and adversity, urging them to never give up and always fight for what they believe in.

The speech begins with Pacino’s character, Tony D’Amato, sitting in a locker room surrounded by his football team. He starts off with a quote from the legendary coach Vince Lombardi, “Today, I want to talk to you about being inches.” This sets the tone for the rest of the speech, emphasizing the importance of every little effort and inch towards achieving greatness.

Throughout the speech, Pacino’s character talks about how life is a game of inches, how the margin for error is so small that any little mistake can make all the difference. He goes on to say that in football and in life, we have to fight for every inch, because that’s what ultimately separates the winners from the losers.

But it’s not just about fighting for yourself, as D’Amato says in his speech, “The team with the best individual players will win every time, but the team with the best heart and commitment to each other, that’s who wins when you add up all those inches.” He stresses the importance of teamwork and camaraderie, and how together, we can achieve more than we ever could alone.

Pacino’s character also touches on the subject of fear, and how it can hold us back from reaching our full potential. He encourages his team to face their fears head on, and not let them control or limit their actions.

The most famous line of the speech comes towards the end, when D’Amato declares, “In either game – life or football – the margin for error is so small. I mean one half a step too late or too early and you don’t quite make it. One half second too slow, too fast and you don’t quite catch it.” This line resonates with the audience, as it highlights the fine line between success and failure.

In conclusion, Al Pacino’s “Any Given Sunday” speech is a powerful reminder to never give up, always fight for what we believe in, and to never underestimate the importance of teamwork and perseverance. It’s a testament to the human spirit and our ability to overcome any obstacles that come our way.

So next time you’re faced with adversity, remember D’Amato’s words: “The inches we need are everywhere around us.” So keep fighting for those inches, because they could be the difference between winning and losing, in football and in life. So go out there and give it your all – because every inch counts.

Speeches about Life Lessons:

As humans, we are constantly learning and growing throughout our lives. Along the way, we encounter many experiences that shape us into who we are today. Some of these experiences may be positive while others may be challenging and difficult. However, there is always something to be learned from each and every one of them.

Life lessons can come in various forms – through relationships, career, health, or even from strangers we meet along the way. They are valuable insights that help us navigate through life and make better decisions for ourselves. In this speech, I would like to share with you some of the most important life lessons I have learned throughout my own journey.

Firstly, let’s talk about relationships. Whether it’s romantic, family or friendships, relationships play a key role in our lives. One of the most important lessons I have learned is that communication is the foundation of any healthy relationship. It’s important to express our thoughts and feelings openly and honestly, while also being mindful of how we communicate. This leads me to my next lesson – empathy. Putting yourself in someone else’s shoes allows us to better understand their perspective and truly connect with them. Empathy is a crucial element in building and maintaining meaningful relationships.

Next, let’s dive into career-related life lessons. One of the biggest lessons I have learned is to never stop learning. We live in a constantly evolving world where technology and industries are rapidly changing. In order to stay relevant and be successful in our careers, we must continuously seek knowledge and be adaptable to change. Additionally, it’s important to have a growth mindset – embracing challenges and failures as opportunities for learning and growth.

On the topic of health, I have learned that it is truly our greatest wealth. Without good health, we cannot fully enjoy all the other aspects of our lives. Taking care of ourselves physically, mentally, and emotionally should be a top priority. This includes getting enough rest, exercise, and nourishing our bodies with healthy food.

Lastly, I would like to touch on the importance of being open to learning from others. We often limit ourselves by only seeking knowledge and advice from those who are similar to us or in positions of authority. However, people from different backgrounds and experiences can offer valuable insights that we may not have considered before. Keeping an open mind and being willing to learn from anyone can lead us to new perspectives and opportunities for growth.

In conclusion, life is a continuous journey of learning and growing. Through relationships, career, health, and being open to new experiences, we can gain valuable life lessons that shape us into better individuals.

Motivational Speech for Juniors:

Welcome junior students,

I hope this message finds you well. As we all know, being a junior in high school can be challenging and overwhelming at times. You are caught between the excitement of growing up and the pressure of making important decisions for your future.

But let me tell you something, you are in one of the most exciting phases of your life. This is the time when you get to experience new things, discover your passions, and shape yourself into the person you want to be.

I know it’s not easy. You have to balance schoolwork, extracurricular activities, social life, and family obligations. But let me tell you a secret – the key to success is not just working hard, but also finding joy in what you do.

Yes, it’s important to study and excel in your academics, but don’t forget to make time for the things that truly make you happy. Whether it’s playing a sport, painting, writing, or simply spending time with your loved ones.

You see, life is not just about achieving goals and meeting expectations. It’s about enjoying the journey and finding fulfillment in the little moments. And trust me, those little moments will be the ones that you’ll remember the most.

So my advice to you is this – don’t let anyone else’s expectations define your journey. You have the power to create your own path and live a life that brings you happiness and satisfaction.

And when things get tough, remember that challenges are a part of life. They make us stronger, wiser, and more resilient. So don’t be afraid to take risks, make mistakes, and learn from them.

In the end, it’s not about reaching a certain destination, but rather about who you become along the way. I believe in each and every one of you, and I can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll accomplish.

So keep your heads up high, and always remember that you are capable, you are talented, and you are destined for greatness. Thank you for listening, and I wish you all the best in your journey ahead. Let’s make it a memorable one!

Speech About Life Goals:

Hello everyone,

I am honored to be standing here today to share my thoughts with you on something that is dear to all of us – life goals. In our fast-paced and ever-changing world, it’s important for us to have a sense of direction and purpose in our lives. Life goals give us this sense of direction and help us stay focused on what truly matters.

Importance of Life Goals

Why are life goals important, you may ask? Well, let me tell you. Having clear and specific life goals helps us prioritize our actions and make better decisions in our daily lives. Without them, we may feel lost or directionless, constantly chasing after the next thing without a clear purpose.

Moreover, life goals give us a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction when we achieve them. They provide a sense of accomplishment and motivate us to keep striving for even greater things in life.

Types of Life Goals

Life goals can vary greatly from person to person, as we all have our own unique desires and aspirations. However, they can generally be categorized into three main types: personal, professional, and social.

Personal goals are focused on self-improvement and can include things like learning a new skill, traveling to a certain destination, or improving personal relationships. Professional goals pertain to our career and can involve things like getting a promotion or starting our own business. Social goals revolve around making a positive impact in the world and can include volunteering, raising awareness for a cause, or helping those in need.

Creating Life Goals

Now that we understand the importance of life goals and the different types, how do we go about creating them? The key is to make sure our goals are SMART – specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. This ensures that our goals are realistic and have a clear plan of action. Additionally, it’s important to regularly review and adjust our goals as we grow and change throughout life.

Overcoming Obstacles

Of course, setting life goals is the easy part – achieving them is where the real challenge lies. Along the way, we may face obstacles that hinder our progress or make us doubt ourselves. But remember, challenges are a natural part of life and they only make us stronger. It’s important to stay resilient and have a positive mindset when facing challenges, as they can often lead us to new opportunities and growth.

In conclusion, life goals are an essential part of our journey in this world. They give us direction, motivation, and a sense of fulfillment. So take the time to reflect on your own personal, professional, and social goals and start working towards them today. Remember to stay focused, persistent, and adaptable, as you never know what amazing things you can achieve when you have a clear purpose in life. Thank you.

Beautiful Speech About Life:

Life, what a beautiful concept. It is truly amazing how we are all given this gift of existence, and yet it is something that can often be taken for granted. We get so caught up in the daily hustle and bustle of life that we forget to stop and appreciate the simple fact that we are alive.

But life isn’t just about existing, it’s about living. It’s about embracing every moment, both the good and the bad, and finding joy in the journey. This is something that can be difficult to remember when faced with challenges or hardships, but it is during these times that we truly learn and grow.

Life also teaches us valuable lessons along the way. We experience love, heartbreak, success, failure, happiness, and sadness. Each of these moments shapes us into who we are and teaches us valuable lessons about ourselves and the world around us.

And let’s not forget about the people in our lives. They are what make life truly beautiful. Our friends, family, partners, and even strangers that we meet along the way all play a role in shaping our journey. We learn from them, we laugh with them, and we share unforgettable moments with them.

So let’s take a moment to appreciate this beautiful gift of life. Let’s cherish each day and make the most out of every moment. Let’s learn from our experiences and the people around us, and let’s never forget to spread love and kindness wherever we go.

Life is truly a precious thing, and we should never take it for granted. Let’s make the most out of this journey, and create a life that we can look back on with no regrets. Thank you for listening to my short speech about life. Now go out there and live it to the fullest!

2 Minutes Speech About Life:

Hello Everyone! Today, I want to take a few minutes to talk about something that is essential to all of us – Life. Life is beautiful and fragile at the same time. It is what makes us human beings. We are born, we grow up, we learn, we experience and eventually one day, we leave this world. But in between those two lines lies the journey of life, and it is what we make of it that truly matters.

As someone who has lived for a few decades now, I have come to understand that life is not easy. It throws challenges at us, makes us face hardships, but most importantly, it gives us opportunities. Opportunities to learn, to grow and to become better versions of ourselves. No matter how many times you may fall, the key is to always get back up and keep moving forward.

Life is all about making choices. Sometimes we choose the right path and sometimes we make mistakes. But every decision that we make shapes our life in one way or another. And that’s what makes it so unpredictable and exciting at the same time. We never know what each day will bring us; but it’s up to us to make the most of it.

One thing that I have learned over the years is that life is not just about our own journey, but also about the people we meet along the way. They become a part of our story and play important roles in shaping who we are. It’s essential to cherish these relationships, nurture them, and be grateful for the people that come into our lives.

Another aspect of life that I want to touch upon is personal growth. Life is a continuous process of learning, and it’s up to us to keep growing through every experience. Whether it’s trying new things, stepping out of our comfort zone or pushing ourselves beyond our limits – these are the moments that define us and make our life worth living.

But amidst all the chaos and hustle of life, it’s essential to take a step back and appreciate the little things. The beauty of nature, laughter of loved ones or simply the joy of being alive – these are the moments that fill our hearts with warmth and make this journey worthwhile.

In conclusion, life is an amazing adventure filled with twists and turns, ups and downs, happiness and sadness. It’s up to us how we navigate through it and make the most of every moment. So let’s embrace this gift of life, learn from our experiences, cherish our relationships and keep growing every day. Thank you!

3 Minutes Speech about Life:

Hello Everyone!

Today, I would like to share a few thoughts on life – the one precious gift that we all have received. As cliché as it may sound, life truly is a blessing. It is what makes us who we are and gives us the opportunity to experience this world in all its beauty.

Life is unpredictable, full of ups and downs, twists and turns. But isn’t that what makes it exciting? The uncertainties, the challenges, and the triumphs – everything adds to the richness of our lives. It is like a rollercoaster ride, with its highs and lows, but we must embrace every moment of it.

One thing we often forget in the hustle and bustle of everyday life is to appreciate the present moment. We are always chasing the future or dwelling in the past, forgetting to live in the present. But let me tell you, life is happening right now, at this very moment. So let’s cherish it and make the most of it.

Life also teaches us valuable lessons – some through hardships and others through joyous moments. It is during these times that we discover our strength, resilience, and the power to overcome any obstacle. So let’s not shy away from challenges, but face them with determination.

Moreover, life is all about connections – the people we meet, the relationships we form, and the memories we create. It is these connections that make our lives meaningful and worth living. So let’s cherish our loved ones and spread love and kindness wherever we go.

In the end, life is a precious gift that we must never take for granted. Let’s make the most of it by being grateful, living in the present, and spreading love and positivity. As the famous quote goes, “Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away.” So let’s make every moment count and live our lives to the fullest. Thank you.

Speech about Life in the Future:

Welcome everyone,

Today, I want to talk to you about a topic that has been on my mind for a while now – the future. Specifically, I want to discuss what life could look like in the future, and how we can prepare ourselves for it.

As we all know, the world is constantly changing and evolving. With advancements in technology, medicine, and science, our lives have transformed drastically over the years. Just think about it – smartphones, electric cars, virtual reality – these were only a dream just a few decades ago, and now they are an integral part of our daily lives.

So, what does this mean for the future? Well, it means that our world is going to change even more dramatically in the years to come. And with these changes, we can expect our way of living to be significantly different as well.

One of the biggest changes I foresee is the increased use of technology in our everyday lives. Just look at how much we rely on technology now – from online shopping and banking to social media and communication, it has become deeply ingrained in our routines. And I believe this trend will only continue, with technology becoming even more integrated into every aspect of our lives.

But while this may seem like an exciting and convenient future, there are also concerns about how it will affect our privacy and security. With the rise of automation and artificial intelligence, there is a genuine fear that jobs may become obsolete and humans will be replaced by machines.

However, I believe that with every challenge comes an opportunity. While some jobs may indeed become automated, new career paths in technology and science will emerge, creating possibilities we never thought possible. And with the advancements in medicine, we can also expect to live longer and healthier lives.

But amidst all these changes, one thing will remain constant – us humans. Our values, emotions, and relationships will still be a crucial aspect of our lives. While technology may connect us globally, it is important not to forget the importance of face-to-face interactions and building genuine connections with one another.

So, my message to you today is this – embrace the future with an open mind. Instead of fearing the unknown, let’s prepare ourselves for it by staying informed and adapting to new technologies and lifestyles. And most importantly, let’s not forget the essence of what makes us human – our ability to empathize, connect, and create meaningful relationships.

Speech about Life Experiences:

Life. It’s a journey filled with ups and downs, twists and turns, joy and sorrow. Each one of us has our own unique experiences that shape who we are today. And in this speech, I want to share some of my own life experiences with you.

Growing up, I was always a shy and introverted child. I struggled to make friends and often felt like I didn’t fit in. But as I entered my teenage years, I discovered my passion for music and it helped me come out of my shell. I joined a band and for the first time, I felt like I belonged somewhere.

However, life has a way of throwing unexpected curveballs. During college, I lost my father to a sudden illness. It was a devastating experience that taught me the fragility of life and to cherish every moment with loved ones.

But even in the darkest of times, there is always a glimmer of hope. I found solace in writing and it became my outlet for processing my emotions.

After college, I took a leap of faith and moved to a new city for a job opportunity. It was a scary and exhilarating experience, but it taught me to be independent and resilient.

And most recently, I became a parent. This has been the biggest life experience for me as it has challenged me in ways I never thought possible. But it has also brought immeasurable joy and love into my life.

Life is a journey of continuous growth and learning. And through all the highs and lows, I have come to understand that it’s not about the destination, but rather the lessons and experiences we gain along the way. So embrace your own life experiences, for they are what make you uniquely you. Thank you

Speech about Life after Matric:

Good morning everyone, I hope you all are doing well. Today, I have been given the opportunity to share my thoughts on a topic that is very close to every student’s heart – life after matric.

As we all know, matriculation is an important milestone in our academic journey. It marks the end of our high school years and the beginning of a new chapter in our lives. The thought of leaving behind the familiar surroundings of school and embarking on a new journey can be both exciting and daunting at the same time.

For most of us, this is the first time we will be making important decisions that will shape our future. We are bombarded with questions from family, friends, and even ourselves – What career path should I choose? Which university should I apply to? Should I take a gap year?

But, let me tell you something – it’s okay to not have all the answers right now. It’s completely normal to feel overwhelmed and unsure about your future. Sometimes, we need to take a step back and evaluate our options before making any decisions.

However, one thing is for sure – life after matric is full of opportunities. It’s a chance for us to explore our interests, discover new passions and pave our own path towards success.

Some of you may choose to further your studies at a university or college, while others may opt for vocational training or enter the workforce directly. No matter which path you choose, it’s important to remember that there is no right or wrong way to go about it.

One of the biggest misconceptions about life after matric is that success can only be measured by academic achievements. But, let me assure you, success comes in many forms and each person’s journey is unique. Don’t let anyone else’s expectations dictate your future.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, life after matric is a time of growth, discovery and endless possibilities. It’s a time to embrace change, learn from our mistakes and make the most out of every opportunity that comes our way. My advice to all of you is to follow your heart, trust in yourself and enjoy this new chapter in your life. Thank you for listening.

From problem to solution: waste management can help address triple planetary crisis

Check against delivery

H.E. Mukhtar Babayev, Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources and COP29 President Designate.

Excellencies, delegates,

It is a pleasure to join you here today in Baku, a city that will, in just over 130 days, host the 29 th UN Climate Change Conference of Parties , or COP29.

As we gather here in Baku the world is gripped by a triple planetary crisis: the crisis of climate change , the crisis of nature and biodiversity loss , and the crisis of pollution and waste . The impacts are playing out right in front of us and the vast amount of waste our economies generate is exasperating this challenge.

2.24 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste was produced globally in 2020. This is not only wasting valuable resources, but also causing significant pollution risks from the estimated 33% of global waste that is burnt openly or dumped and then flows into our soils, our rivers, our oceans.

Construction and demolition waste now accounts for more than a third of all waste generated by society. We often don’t think of this as waste, but it is. The growing impact of disasters and conflicts globally is substantially increasing the volume of debris, debris that can be recycled into aggregate to support reconstruction efforts. 

And waste management is also causing an increase in methane emissions . The waste sector now accounts for 20% of all anthropogenic methane emissions. For the 150 plus countries that have committed to reducing methane emissions by 30 percent by 2030, addressing landfills that are emitting methane emissions – and will do for decades to come without action – is critical.

So, it is clear, we need to move beyond the waste era we are living in. An era driven by a throw away culture, cheaply made products and increasing consumer demand. We need to decouple waste generation from economic growth and shift to zero waste models, embrace waste management and embed circular economy approaches across economies and societies.

Circularity and zero waste approaches can help break our waste addiction. Zero waste initiatives in just five sectors - cement, aluminum, steel, plastics, and food – could eliminate an estimated half of the emissions from the production of goods – 9.3 billion tonnes of CO 2 eq in 2050 – equivalent to cutting current emissions from the transport sector to zero. 

Take plastics. Just 9 percent of plastic waste is recycled, 17 per cent is incinerated, 22 percent is left uncollected, and 46 percent dumped in landfills. Not forgetting millions of tonnes of plastic pollution that ends up in our oceans. A zero-waste approach can reduce the global annual volume of plastics entering our oceans by over 80%, reduce virgin plastic production by 55%, reduce government costs by $70 billion over the next 20 years and reduce GHG emissions by 25% while creating hundreds of thousands of new jobs, mainly in the Global South. 

UNEP’s Global Waste Management Outlook also reminds us that embracing circular economy approaches on waste will deliver environmental and economic benefits.

This year’s report shows municipal solid waste generation is predicted to grow from 2.3 billion tonnes in 2023 to 3.8 billion tonnes by 2050. Costs are also rising quickly. In 2020, the global direct cost of waste management was an estimated $252 billion. But the often-forgotten associated costs are far greater. When we factor in all the hidden costs from pollution, health issues and climate change from poor waste disposal practices, the cost rises to $361 billion. Without urgent action, by 2050 the global annual waste management cost could almost double to a staggering $640 billion. 

How do we turn words into action? As all eyes turn to Baku ahead of COP29, here are three ways in which we can collectively make progress.

First, we need to build greater capacity to deal with both our present challenges and prepare for the transformational shift we need.

This means dealing with leaking methane emissions. Banning open burning to reduce deadly air pollution. Increasing waste management capacity, from collection to recycling and reuse. Supporting debris recycling efforts as an integral part of post-disaster and post-conflict recovery. Azerbaijan is already showing leadership in tackling waste with innovative efforts in recycling demolition waste in the conflict-affected areas in collaboration with the private sector and technical advice from UNEP.

Secondly, applying a life-cycle approach that covers the design and production phase of products so that products stay longer in the economy and be reused, without creating a waste burden in the first place.

Thirdly, we must unlock finance. None of the above will be possible without it, especially for developing countries. I live in Nairobi, Kenya, and many countries across the continent lack solid waste management infrastructure. They are burning waste not because they want to, but because they do not have proper waste management. Financing, including greater support from Multilateral Development Banks, to build out the resources they need is critical. Countries have also started to include waste into their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) which will unlock climate finance to scale waste management solutions.

Finally, we need to embrace existing multilateral agreements and deliver ambitious new ones, including securing a plastics treaty later this year.

This instrument on plastic pollution must address the full life cycle of plastics, rethink the entire system and redesign of products and packaging. From using fewer virgin materials for plastic that is single use and short-lived, to removing chemicals in plastic products where there is harmful exposure, the final round of negotiations can deliver an ambitious global deal that help protects human and ecosystem health, slows climate change, creates new jobs and sustainable markets, and delivers a just transition. Something I look forward to working with you all to achieve.

Zero waste is a win win. Keeping materials in the economy and strengthening waste management will deliver financial savings. Protect people’s health. Safeguard nature. And reduce emissions.

Only a drastic reduction in waste generation will secure a liveable and affordable future for all.

Euros Notebook - Wout Weghorst

Euro 2024 Notebook: Netherlands system change, staying onside and going for goals

The round of 16 begins this weekend after a group stage which was nothing short of remarkable.

For all the complaints about the third-place structure, some of which are justified if we're honest, it has given us some absolutely incredible moments.

Hungary's late goal against Scotland , which looked good enough at the time, Italy's last gasp equaliser vs Croatia and Georgia's shock victory over Portugal have set up an intriguing looking knockout stages.

And as has been the case in recent tournaments, it looks set-up once again for England to go deep, but more on that shortly.

Sky Bet Euros offer B10G40 - https://m.skybet.com/lp/acq-bet-10-get-40-football-2024?sba_promo=ACQB10G8X5FB&aff=688&dcmp=SL_ED_FOOTBALL_B10G40

One stacked side of the draw means we'll lose some big hitters at an earlier stage than we expected, while we could well see a surprise package in the final given the potential routes.

Austria and Romania were shock winners, while Croatia were sent home after just three games. You'll have done well to land any early outright bets surrounding that group stage.

Here are some things to consider as the knockouts get underway.

Are England now the bet?

England's tournament has been dull but ultimately effective, topping Group C and setting up a round of 16 tie with Slovakia .

Even by the Three Lions' recent tournament luck standards, this is quite remarkable. They now avoid Belgium, France, Germany, Portugal and Spain until the final should they get there.

Gareth Southgate's side have barely been troubled in defence in their three games so far and the underlying numbers back up what we have been seeing.

Dull but barely troubled defensively across the three games. Could bore our way to glory in Berlin. #Euro2024 pic.twitter.com/VzMeObNMc4 — Tom Carnduff (@TomCarnduff) June 25, 2024

The unhappiness surrounding the attacking output has perhaps drawn attention away from this, but tournament football favours those with good defensive structures.

The 1.15 xGA (expected goals against - a metric valuing the quality of chances a team concedes) is the lowest of all 24 teams. It's by a good distance too, with Germany next up with 1.80 xGA.

Prices of 7/2 are available across the board that England go the distance, and considering the way the draw has now played out, they have every chance.

Keep with Kimmich

A note on Germany, and Joshua Kimmich is worth backing in the assists markets considering how much he's created across the three games so far.

The right-back registered an assist in their opening win over Scotland but has created nine chances in total.

Taking set-pieces usually helps, yet all nine of those chances have come from open play. Three of those were passes into the area with the other finding Florian Wirtz just outside for the opening goal of the tournament.

Florian Wirtz carries his club form into #Euro2024 ! 🔥 It's a fantastic finish for the first goal of the tournament ⚽️ pic.twitter.com/efafEgEkYs — ITV Football (@itvfootball) June 14, 2024

You can still get 33/1 on Kimmich registering the most assists which could be decent enough value. I'd expect Germany to have at least two more games to play.

The man of the moment

When considering what could potentially happen at this tournament a few weeks ago, I didn't expect to reach this stage and be doing a section on Georgia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili .

He has been absolutely incredible though.

His 21 saves across the three games is the most of any goalkeeper by far and he is a massive reason behind his country having their spot in the round of 16 in their debut tournament.

Giorgi Mamardashvili's group stage stats

They face Spain in the next round - another game where he's expected to be very busy.

Mamardashvili returned five saves against Portugal, six against Turkey and a huge ten against Czechia, so it will be worth investigating his saves lines in the betting markets.

Without him, Georgia would have easily finished bottom of their group.

Some value in Switzerland

Switzerland's unbeaten campaign led to them finishing as the runners-up in Group A and they will face Italy - the runners-up of Group B - in the round of 16.

Goals were a feature of their three games so far, but so were offsides, with Switzerland's total of nine a leader in the tournament so far.

Dan Ndoye , Ruben Vargas and Silvan Widmer all have two each - they will be the players to target in this market in their next match.

Keep an eye on the team offsides line too. If 3+ is available at odds-against prices, it's certainly worth backing based on what we've seen so far.

Staying on that topic...

Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo is also one player to target in the offsides market.

Cristiano Ronaldo shouts at the linesman

One constant throughout the group stage - alongside moaning about absolutely everything - is how often he'd go too early with any attempted through balls to him.

Ronaldo's total of five offsides is the most of any player at the tournament, and it's particularly encouraging in the betting that they were in a group that contained Czechia, Georgia and Turkey.

With Slovenia next up , there may be some good prices available on two or more as the desperation for a goal continues.

Corners in focus

We've started to see the style of play that teams have fully settled on in the tournament (mostly) and that has given us a good indication of where the corners are coming from.

When it comes to the round of 16, Germany's tie with Denmark is worth looking at for the count hitting double figures.

Germany and Denmark's open play crosses

Across the group stages, Germany took the most corners while Denmark sat third. That is no surprise when we consider how much they look to utilise their width.

Julian Nagelsmann's home nation sit second to Portugal for total crosses attempted and Denmark are fifth. Not only does the styles give hope to this winning but so too does the game state.

One team leading should lead to more corners for the team chasing. It's well worth checking the prices when bookmakers fully release them.

Back to the back three?

Add the Netherlands into that group of 'high profile nations whose fans aren't particularly happy'.

They progressed, somehow, in third from Group D but still managed to end up with a decent enough tie against a Romania side who have been good fun at the tournament.

A day after their defeat to Austria , Ronald Koeman's side - made up of those on the bench in that contest - beat German 4th tier outfit TSV Havelse 6-1.

Beyond the scorers, we don't know too much about the game itself. I do wonder though if Koeman has opted to switch to the back-three system we saw in qualifying.

Netherlands' back five average positions

Micky van de Ven scored twice while Jeremie Frimpong got one - the potential wing-backs on the day?

This could mean a move back into the side for Wout Weghorst , with Cody Gakpo and Xavi Simons operating behind but with the licence to drift out wide.

If you want to buy into the theory, Weghorst - who has one goal - is still 66/1 with Sky Bet to win the Golden Boot as he currently trails by two. Let the Big Man Summer™️ continue.

The high scorer?

Austria meeting Turkey in the round of 16 has a great chance of being a high scorer - the entertaining tie for the neutral.

Austria's stats so far

Why? Austria have earned plaudits for their attacking intent, rightly so, but I have doubts about their defensive structure and what this means for their chances of going the distance.

Both of these sides sat in the top-five for most xGA conceded in the group stages, yet Turkey's 5.1 xG created put them fifth in this metric.

They do have a couple of players unavailable for this game though, but it still has all the potential for the overs line to land - with 19/20 available on 2.5 and 12/5 on 3.5.

Austria's price has been cut as you'd expect to win the whole thing but I need to see more from them at the back to really have any interest.

And on that note...

Belgium's lacklustre showings in front of goal means that the line has been set fairly low for their round of 16 blockbuster with France .

They are 4/1 outsiders, but over 2.5 goals can be backed at 13/10 across the board. That may be value when we factor in France's involvement.

France's stats so far

Didier Deschamps' side saw their two goals in the group stage come from a penalty and an own goal, yet they created far more than that across the three games.

In terms of the quality of chances - relying a bit on the xG data here - France sat second to a Croatia side who saw two spot kicks awarded. In terms of non-penalty xG, France are third.

Belgium did also sit seventh in this metric too, so it could actually play out as a far more attacking game than we, or the odds, expect.

2024 Stanley Cup Final: Florida Panthers win their first NHL championship as Oilers come up short in Game 7

Sam reinhart provided the go-ahead goal; oilers' connor mcdavid wins mvp.

The Florida Panthers have secured their first Stanley Cup in franchise history. In Game 7 on Monday night, the Panthers edged the Edmonton Oilers, 2-1, and avoided coughing up a 3-0 series lead.

Star forward Sam Reinhart led the way for the Panthers as he tallied the game-winning goal late in the second period.At the 15:11 mark of the second period, the Panthers were able to turn defense into offense. Panthers defenseman Dmitry Kulikov rescued the puck out of danger after it sat in front of the Florida net late in the frame.

Reinhart ended up with the puck in the offensive zone, skated into the face-off circle, and snapped a scorching shot past goaltender Stuart Skinner. It was the first goal for Reinhart since Game 3 of the series. Goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky, who had a 4.00 goals-against-average in Game 4-6, rose to the occasion when the Panthers needed him the most. Bobrovsky saw the puck well throughout Game 7 and turned aside 23 of the 24 shots that he faced.

Despite falling short of completing a historic comeback, Oilers star Connor McDavid won the Conn Smythe Trophy as the most valuable player of the entire NHL postseason. McDavid tallied 42 points (eight goals and 34 assists) throughout the Stanley Cup Playoffs, which was the fourth-highest point total in a single postseason.

McDavid also became just the sixth player in NHL history to win the Conn Smythe Trophy as a member of the losing team. He also joined Reggie Leach (1976) as the only skater to win the award.

Florida opened the scoring just 4:27 into the opening period. Panthers forward Evan Rodrigues threw a shot towards the net that appeared to be heading several inches wide. However, teammate Carter Verhaeghe was able to deflect the puck past Oilers goaltender Stuart Skinner for the goal. The tally snapped a six-game goalless streak for Verhaeghe after he scored the opening goal of Game 1. Verhaeghe is tied with teammate Matthew Tkachuk for the most goals (11) in a single postseason.

Just over two minutes later, veteran defenseman Cody Ceci noticed Mattias Janmark streaking behind the defense and placed a sensational pass on Janmark's stick at the other end of the ice. Janmark didn't miss in all alone on Bobrovsky.

The Oilers were looking to become just the second team in NHL history to erase a 3-0 series deficit to win the Stanley Cup. The 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs are the only team that has achieved such a feat in league history.

Connor McDavid wins the Conn Smythe Trophy as the league's playoff MVP. He is just the sixth player in NHL history from the losing team to win the Conn Smythe. McDavid joins Reggie Leach (1976) as the only skaters from the losing team that achieved that feat. The Oilers star tallied 42 points (eight goals & 34 assists), which is the fourth-most points in a single postseason in league history.
