You might say Eric Thomas has something to do with LeBron James winning his first NBA championship ring with the Miami Heat last October.
Thomas didn't make any moves on the court, but before Game 7-and after a string of losses-James saw a YouTube video with the gravelly voiced minister saying: "When you get to the point where all you want to do is be successful as bad you want to breathe, then you'll be successful."
The audio was spliced into images of Heat footage. The team watched it--and never lost again.
The native Detroiter, also known as the Hip Hop Preacher, understands the power of positive speaking-and used it to pick himself up when the odds were against him. A high school dropout who once lived in his car and abandoned houses, Thomas figured out how to achieve. That may be why his story has such an effect on others.
Thomas is working on his Ph.D. at Michigan State University, where he masterminded MSU's The Advantage Program, which helps academically challenged students. He produced T.G.I.M. (Thank God It's Monday), a YouTube motivational series with 5 million-plus views. His best selling book is called "The Secret to success".
