Sylvester Stallone FINALLY Reveals His Secret To Success [EYE-OPENING] 

Rocky has been more than a movie character to me. More than a mentor. He was like the father I never had. I learned more from this man than most people I ever knew in real life. He’s kept me fighting through some of the hardest times of my life and after 17 years of chronic illness, he’s still a huge part of that fight every single day. Stallone is a real life super hero.

Sylvester has come a long way from very humble and bare beginnings. Anyone who could've witnessed his past life and struggles would not think he would succeed by any hint of the imagination. He kept at it despite the doubts and fears, obstacles, and detours, and rejections setbacks, and never stopped going after what he wanted. He didn't exactly get what he wanted. He got unexpectedly more than what he wanted and needed. Success will appear when you least expect it IF you never give up.

This guy is so underrated - just like the rest of us. He's a real life Rocky- something we are ourselves. I wish him all the best and thank him for his contributions to society...

I'm 51 and been and still am fighting. This made me cry, wow it got to me. I've heard alot of inspirational videos and just stopped. I stopped because they're all the same but this I'm gonna cry again because it hit something in my heart. Thank you Stallone. Sending so much love to you.

If you're looking for a hero in life you couldn't do much better than this man. An absolute legend.

"It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward... That's how winning is done". Rocky said that to his son. It's actually a message for all of us.

You're everyone's brother, son, and father. Your knowledge and experience are very believable. When you've been there, you know. The world needs more honest and compassionate men like you Sly, a true legend. ❤

It’s remarkable how down to earth this guy really is. Most of the other Hollywood stars ended up bragging about their success when they talk about the topic. That’s how off they are and they can’t help it that it’s really wide spread. Yet this guy tells us it’s ok to change course as long as we keep challenging. How great is that as the advice for life. The guy is legit.

I never thought I’d ever hear an inspirational video from Sylvester Stallone. But this was quite a shock. I never gave him enough credit for being wise. But he is, from his own experience. And what he has to say is worth listening to.

Sylvester Stallone has come a long way. The series of advice that he has given here has inspired me to keep living, learning, and working in spite of my learning disabilities, speech impediment, and leukemia. Plus, I'm also glad that he mentioned that sometimes quitting is necessary when you are pursuing something, and you are constantly failing where it becomes a dead end. Then you pursue something else. When one path doesn't work for you, move onto another path. Mr. Stallone, thank you for your words of wisdom.

So much humanity in his voice. The way he communicates is so easy down to earth, without all the fancy lingo. This is a guy who speaks directly from his liver. 💪

This man keeps giving us a lot of reasons not to give up, not to surrender. A talented man who believed in himself in a hostile world and succeeded, he is just a legend. And once again, I feel relieved and willing to overcome struggles after listening to what he has to say. It doesn't matter if he is talking genuinely or playing a role. What matters is his message, and that's a message of truth, and hope and strength. It's not over until is over. We didn't hear the bell, everytime we'll be cornered and on our knees, let's just remember that we can still fight for one more round. Thank you, Sylvester. You're such a legend.

Gosh... The man is a legend, he has all the qualities not just an actor, producer, director but as an ordinary person who has experienced the good and tribulations in life and then became a very successful in his life until to date...Keep puching Sly..#RESPECTTOYOU

This is seriously one of the best motivational talks I've ever heard. Yes, I already have ALL I need to succeed within me. Just believing that isn't enough. I have to act on it.

Finally, someone who can speak without using a ton of filler words.

I'm a lady and I love the Rocky movies I can watch him over and over The amazing resilience and triumph of the human spirit

Having growing up watching Rocky 1 and all the following movies he has made since. Is prove of what he is saying. We are all underdogs in life set up to fail by poor education system and broken families. Life is unfair and there are those who attempt to put others on the right path to prosper.

Words can't describe how inspirational Sylvester Stallone is. He truly is the epitome of the American Dream and he has stayed true to himself and his fans over the years... Thank you Mr. Stallone!

Stallone is amazing for doing this. To men and women alike...he offers great advice.

Sly is a great actor,writer,director and an all around great person. Out of everyone in Hollywood, nobody deserves success as much as he does. Me and my Dad used to bond over your movies and now me and my son bond over them. You are a great man.

I love Stallone! His Rocky movies has become a personal close friend of mine whenever I go through tough times in my life. Rocky movies are quotable, it talks about the journey of life, and human struggles, hardships and success. Sly is truly an inspiration to me, reminding me that "it's not about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward...how much you can take, & keep moving forward - that's how winning is done!" You go Rock! ✌ Peace & ❤ love ! 😊

Rocky has been there my whole life,how many of us have been inspired by this guy,the story the music the keep fighting no matter what.from all of us thank you Sly

Love this guy. Real empathy. Real human.

It never gets old listening to a speech from Sylvester Stallone, his Rocky characters shaped My teenage life as a boxer, wrestler, and later on martial arts... I was completely consumed in the Rocky series when it first came out, I looked on the screen as a young kid and thought man that's who I want to be someday, I'm grateful we're both still alive and grateful for all your contributions in life 💪🥊🥊

Pure and simple. This man is an inspiration to everyone who wants to succeed in life. I watched every Rocky movie starting when I was just a kid back in the late 70's. I clearly remember walking out of that movie theater and I was so pumped up to start working out and getting in good shape. Fast forward 40 years and this dude "The Italian Stallion" is still one of the biggest influences on my life in terms of never giving up and staying true to yourself. I am not one to idolize people on the big screen but this guy is one of a kind indeed.

Used to be doubtful about Sly, now can't get enough of the guy. He truly is inspirational.

Just what I needed to hear today. Thanks Sly, you're one of the good ones.

I listen to motivational videos everyday but I honestly think this is the deepest one I've ever heard in my life. Thank you so much Sylvester Stallone!!!

At the core of Sly is hard work, diligence, a positive attitude and pure love. Good lessons for all.

Stallone has and continues to be a huge inspiration for so many people including myself! Excellent video!

I have always loved Rocky and thrived to live by his efforts to never stop doing what you do. Stallone has always been very inspirational to me.

Sylvester Stallone has been like a mentor to me my whole life hes the reason I got into weight lifting and stayed away from alcohol and drugs always gave me a positive look on life, It may sound funny to some people but watching those rocky movies helped me in life to not give up in life and keep moving forward. The struggles in those movies he went through were lessons in life.i still idolize him today from when I was 11 years old and now I'm 52

I’ve loved this man since I was 12. He MADE A DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE ❤

This man is an inspiration to all of us. Thank you Sylvester for helping people. Thank you for all the movies you have created which are not just movies, but also send a message and an incredible sense of human love and feeling. You are (in my opinion) the real deal to human emotion and inspiration. Thank you.

I love this man alot , a huge and unique personality , he will always will be remembered.

Mr. Stallone...you’re a wonderful person and a fabulous actor....thank you!

That's why everyone loved your Rocky movies because it is exactly what you have just said it's a journey of life it's a struggle and it's about getting up and keep on going you are truly a massive inspiration to so many people God bless

Same here back in the 80s,nothing got me motivated like rocky and rambo.

Say thanks to this man, we don’t hear much from him so I’m very pleased to hear what he had to say and it was very worthwhile listening to and thank you to you for bringing him to us.

"It ain't about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep move forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward! That's how winning is done!" - Rocky Balboa

LOVE LOVE LOVE what Sylvester Stallone says about quitting! Never heard anyone else present it through that lens and think it is profound. We do all know what we’re supposed to do, we do have it in us, however, I seem to have forgotten for a while and walked my journey on auto pilot. It was the motivational speeches I listened to over and over again, that ripped my blinders off, allowing me to realize that I was on auto pilot and that it was entirely my choice and through that, it became clear that it was also my choice to quit my automated, aloof, sort of directionless path and once I realized that and that there is power in having the freedom of choice, power in realizing our lives are controlled by a force called decision. So…all that said…sometimes, we all need a little nudge (or bigger in my case:)), reminding us that the answers are within us, waiting to be found:). Thank you Mr. Stallone!!! Chapeau!!

"The lesson lies in learning , the teacher will be taught!" God bless you, beautiful SOUL! You have amassed great wisdom in this lifetime. I honor you. Salute!!

The fact he can inspire through his characters and his real life…love you Sly

Totally inspiring! Just love this speech! 💥

Always been a a fan but not only as an actor but as a person and all that you have achieved in your life it's always inspired me and hearing you speak those words will make anyone feel like there is much more out there. I could go on and on with this comment but I won't just want to say thank you for sharing your life, your stories and your wisdom with all of us.

I think I have not seen a motivational or a survival message better than this one! Sincere and right to the point! You're an admirable man Mr.Stallone!

Thank You, Sly Stallone! Growing up in the NYC area (Jersey City) would have been a lot tougher if I did not have you to role model the FIGHTING SPIRIT I needed to break out of there and live the life beyond my wildest dreams! The MUSIC you placed in your Rocky movies was medicine to my SOUL! You are an incredible artist who has achieved a kind of immortality, even before you pass on to the next world...a true living legend. Heed what the man says so humbly and beautifully in this video.

Wow!!! Always had respect for this man, first off he never tried to tell us who to vote for. After listening to him it’s like we’re just having a conversation about life, the fact that he’s still humble says volumes about the man he is.

I sure wish I'd heard this 25 years ago. Sly has been there, done that. And besides being a self made, super successful individual, he has a great deal of wisdom too.

Thank you Mr. Stallone for taking the time to give back and share this..

Just a great dissertation. It's no wonder he has lived such a successful life.

Stalone is a very good personal friend of mine. He's been through some really tough times before he became famous. Things that he will not share with just anyone. I've been there and seen these times. The story about selling his stuff, his dog, etc etc are just the tip of the iceberg.. But throughout all of this he has remained humble. He still helps many people less fortunate than he is. Every few weeks we meet up and have a coffee and a catch up. He never let's me pay for the coffee. Heart of gold that bloke.

Wise words from a wise man. In my 73 years i have learned if you get knocked down 12 times you get up 13. The victor is the one who keeps trying.

Quality self help from successful, persistent people has a hell of a lot of value. It always will.

Thanks For being my hero Sylvester you do more than you could possibly ever know

This dude has helped in many ways in various stages of my life he will never know

People like Sly are special. The reality is, there was never any doubt he would succeed. He's better than most of us.

The meaning of motivation, this man is a hidden treasure.

You and Arnold will always be my two favorite actors, inspirations, and motivation speakers. 💕❤️

It's very soothing, listening, to his aspirations, and sincere advice. Thank you!

You are great Mr Sly you are an inspiration for all of us

I wish there were more examples of people, like Sly, who overcame the odds to make it. I feel like no one will ever listen or read my scripts.

Rocky, Rambo and the music of those movies always make me feel like anything is possible if you want to. They show me you can be anything you want.

This hit a few notes. You did achieve your goals. Not talking about the bumps. My taxed on home are so past due. I have spent these last years fighting to make it. Now I don't see the point anymore. This pandemic seem to open my eyes and question what for. I killed myself building this house and now what's it all mean. My kids don't come around. There 15 and 18. Thankyou for the good words I feel like changing my goals. It's freaking scary at 60.

At 57 I finally get it. I’ve been sober for 7 years and now I have the answers and the right way to live. Problem is those opportunities that were mine to take are now lost in time. There may be others, but they become less potent with age, less frequent, but more of a gamble when they do present themselves. Hopefully it’s not too late for me as the right attitude, sense of accountability and responsibility is ever present. So anyway, my advice to all youngsters is now: Every action counts and has consequences - we get away with nothing, so use your time well. Great advice from Sly too.

So well described , we all have common sense and sometimes quitting is even the right choice if it comes unnatural.To get to where you want to be it may be a struggle,but the reward is worth it.Now Sly adds some more words to this point,but he talks like a real human being.

This is the voice that helped me surmount unbelievable odds, his never give up attitude even though the odds is stacked against you. When I was down and couldn't even walk I watched his movies nonstop, he got me up and made me believe in myself that I could do it. Thank you Mr Stallone for what you've given to the world, and what you've given to me. I love you dearly. God bless you and your family.

Wow! I never expected something like this from Mr Stallone. I've never watched a Rocky film and, the only film of Sly's I've ever watched is Cliffhanger (which I enjoyed) However, I had absolutely no idea he'd made these wonderful, inspirational videos until one randomly popped up on RU-vid today. Looking forward to hearing more of his experiences and wise advice. Thank you

Sylvester Stallone is my idol. I grew up with Rocky, i now train everyday watching Rocky. Sylvester Stallone has proven that we can all do anything with our lives ❤️

Great talk, a lot of wisdom and honesty 👍

This channel is esential Young, middle age, older, it don't matter. Its wisdom and common sense for everybody. We all need this stories, anécdotas, ideas, back to basics for our daily lives. Thank you Mr Stallone for the generosity of sharing your life experiences.

*SUCCESS IS GUARANTEED WITH THIS* *Fear The Greatest Hinderance Of Success* Fear is the primary reason people fail, or even don’t start something in the first place. But living your life in fear will only cause disappointment in the long run. After all, “we miss 100% of the shots we don’t take,” so don’t let fear stop you from taking your shot. *I LOVE YOU* 😘

Always had a deep respect for Stallone. This just adds another foundation block for why. This guy is pure motivation and always has a great way of letting us know we're doing just fine, just keep pushing on. Failure is a part of life and we will all encounter it, he just has a great way of letting you know thats not the end.

Stallone is the last of the OG action heroes I truly respect. Arnold has turned leftist nutcase, Jean Claude Van DAMAGED is the proper way of pronouncing his name, Steven Segal’s ego is bigger than Hitler, Gangis Khan and the Cuomo brothers put together.. Sly, you’re the big dog dude. You will always have my respect

Sylvester Stallone sure does know how to tell give hope and inspire in a clear, honest and human way. Thanks for your humility and authenticity!

Thank you Sylvester Stallone you have proven that changing the life is never too late, you have to have courage and believe in it !!

Best advice was from Rambo, “ Let it go!”

Thanks dad, we appreciate the kind words and taking the time out to talk to us.

Hi Sly, I'm 59 years old and have been a big fan of yours all my life. I now have kidney cancer and the prognosis is good and I am being helped well to survive this. And that is what I am going to do. I have always gotten a lot of inspiration from your beautiful mindset. Those always gave me strength and now again. Thank you Rock

I'm from Philly and we love Rocky as if he's a real person. He gives us our fighting spirit.

He’s drive and fearless ambition personified.I’m proud he’s Italian.

I enjoyed listening to Sly here, it made me think more about writing more songs, its really all about trying and even if you don't succeed at least try your best.

Thank you, Sly, it's what we need to hear on some days when it's hard.

What a fatherly lesson.

*Perseverance is key *Only quit if you're on the wrong path *Keep trying *Turn deaf ear to criticism *Everyone starts off as underdogs *Go into the unknown *You have to struggle to get better and it's hard, but when you get to the other side you will be able to climb high mountains *Be willing to face the danger and the unknown

drop mic right there. His humanity appeals to all of us. So fresh and inspiring. Lets go Feb 2023!!

I went through a total nightmare some years back. I didn't hit rock bottom, I went right through it. How did I reclaim my life? I made a point of getting up every day early and making a list of all the most positive things I could do that day to get myself back on track. Then, I took from that list the most scary things, the things that took the most guts to do, and I focused only on them. I committed myself to working on those things that day until I was exhausted and could no more. The rest, I turned over to God.

I would actually listen to any tapes, on anything positive, from THIS man.

Yo Sly, I want to thank you from my soul for coming out here and sharing your philosophy and wisdom. Some motivational speaker out there was telling the Rocky story to get people inspired but I didn't like the flamboyant and exaggerated form, but I'm so glad you are here speaking from your soul instead of being exaggeratedly quoted by a motivational speaker who makes millions of dollars telling people who is a winner and who is a loser. I receive your wisdom and I take it into my heart to remember the words of a true Champion whose movie characters, screenplays, and personal trajectory sounds and feels like bliss. I completely agree with the idea that sometimes "Quiting" is the best way to find the right door. DESTINY

Just incredible human being......just incredible actor.....just incredible motivating person. His films, his suggestions and his manner have helped me a lot in many private and even professional situations. I wish him that he stays healthy for many more years with us. God bless and protect yo. Amem!

As an ex construction worker! Relying on my own strength until I injured alll my joints in my body! This is inspiring! ❤

This speech made me like Sly, rather than his movies! He just felt that there is no end, and he is now starting a new journey, another hero! show must go on.....

love sly, met him in the 90s at a planet hollywood opening, such a down to earth nice guy.

"so sometimes quitting is necessary to find your proper place in the world" Great words and Yes. I was guilty holding on to something too long when I knew it wasn't working.

I absolutely respect and love Sylvester Stallone. He has a great heart and has never lost touch with his humanity. Even the friends he has are class acts, otherwise he would not hang with them.

Watching rocky as a little kid and obviously not going through exactly but similar. It gave me motivation as a little kid and I'm 20 years old got my whole life a head of me stuck lost and trying to figure out my path in life. It's starting to make more sense.

I've heard it all from teachers, gurus, and coaches.......THIS HAS TO BE THE MOST ON-POINT, REAL THING I HAVE EVER HEARD .."IT'S ALL READY IN US"

This guy really tries to understand life like philosophers do. We are very fortunate to have a role model like him.

Just love Sly, have since I saw him in the theatre with my mother seeing Rocky back in 76. Truly one of a kind and a straight up wonderful person

Mr Stallone-thank you for trusting yourself enough to spread your truth. God is with you. And yes, I always saw the crosses in your movies. You made all the right moves with humility. Real gangsters move in silence. Until they dont need to anymore.
