Eric Thomas (motivational speaker)

I kind of grew up with hip hop and of course being from Detroit I’m a motown man. Music is in our blood. When you’re from Detroit, music is in your DNA.

I kind of knew that there were a lot of people that didn’t go to church and normally wouldn’t listen to people, but they would come and listen to me talk.

Eric Thomas

I know how long I need to be working to make my dreams become a reality.

Eric Thomas

I think my greatest strengths are my hands. I am also good at getting separation from the defender and finding ways to get open. I am also a good route runner.

Eric Thomas

I’m discovering that the people that wake up early are really the trendsetters. They are up giving the commands on what the whole world needs to do so the worker wakes up at 8am but the dreamer, the innovator, the creator, the engineer is up at 3 or 4 in the morning making it happen.

Eric Thomas

I’ve come to realize that when people are not reaching their highest potential or whatever goals they set out for themselves, they’re more inclined when they’re going through pain. When they’re going through a negative situation. They’re more inclined to hear me than when they’re doing well.

Eric Thomas

If you can out last that discomfort! I guarantee you baby; on the other side of it is success.

Eric Thomas

If you take the knowledge out of my head and take the experiences that I have, I’m broke. I’m nothing.

Eric Thomas

In my estimation, there are four kinds of people that live on this earth: average, good, great, and phenomenal. Phenomenal is like Mother Theresa. She’s dead, but we still talk about her on a regular basis. That’s phenomenal.

Eric Thomas

It’s your dream which means you have to put in the work! It’s now or never don’t even focus on tomorrow, dominate today.
