“I can, I must, and I will” – Paramahansa Yogananda Solving the Mystery of Life: Collected Talks & Essays on Realizing God in Daily Life Volume IV
TRANSCRIPT:
When life knocks you down — hard — you have two choices: stay there… or rise.
Champions rise. Warriors rise.
The world doesn’t care how many times you fall. It only remembers the one time you refused to stay down.
That’s the moment you become unstoppable.
When your muscles burn, when your lungs scream, when doubt whispers “quit”… that’s when your spirit is tested.
That’s when the weak say “I can’t.”
But not you.
You say — I CAN.
Because deep down, you know there’s more in you than the world will ever see.
You say — I MUST.
Because purpose is stronger than pain, and destiny bows to those who refuse to yield.
And finally — I WILL.
Because your will is your weapon — forged in struggle, tempered by endurance.
Remember this: He who endures… conquers.
The will to win isn’t about trophies — it’s about transformation.
It’s the fire that turns ordinary men into legends.
So when the storm comes, stand tall.
Look life dead in the eye and declare —
I CAN. I MUST. I WILL!
Because he who endures… conquers.
