Came here to post this Larry Smith link :)

Even though Jobs gets some hate on HN, these interviews/speeches have never failed to inspire me.

If you don't ask, you don't get -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkTf0LmDqKI

On a very formulaic life - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ydp6bR5HXw (I couldn't find one without the bad bg music)

Stay hungry, stay foolish - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UF8uR6Z6KLc

I do realise, on some levels, he was not a good person, or atleast came off as an ass, but listening to these interviews and speeches, I feel I can relate to him and his struggles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Baf-KeI2jdU That's Grant Cardone giving a talk to auto dealers in Georgia as a sales expert / successful businessman. Got me back to work yesterday when I was all, I feel blah, my throat hurts, I'm tired, I need a day off, can't do this anymore, etc. Watched it for 15 minutes and felt energetic again to get out there and deliver value. The illness/tiredness blew.
