very well and i don't give myself any credit really when it comes to things like that you
00:02:23.380
neither the sal we're always focused on the next the next the next and you know sometimes it is
00:02:31.060
important to value what you've done and uh you know we get a lot of people that come in they're
0.93
00:02:36.620
like fuck dude this is crazy but knowing how where you've been for the last 30 years and what
0.92
00:02:42.420
you've been doing it was just it was super special to me to well for me it was special because i know
0.99
00:02:47.320
where you've been the last 30 years yeah that's the thing i mean we're just talking about this i've
00:02:51.240
been where you grew up you've taken me there to see that place yeah and then to know that you know
00:02:56.460
you guys have built something over here like and the cool part is it's in proximity too yeah like
00:03:01.100
where you grew up isn't that far from here so it's unbelievable you've come that far without having
00:03:05.560
to travel that far you know i'm saying it's just it's bananas this place is bananas it's so crazy so i do a lot
00:03:11.020
of tours like i take people on tours when they come here and i was probably a couple of weeks i
00:03:15.120
forget who it was but i was walking them through and they asked me like how long did it take to
00:03:18.420
build this building and i'm not even thinking right i told him 22 years yeah and like not even thinking
00:03:24.620
i told any of this last week but like it's weird for me like because like i haven't i haven't seen
00:03:29.620
been here 22 years right so just the time that i've been here bro you've been barely been alive
00:03:33.560
22 years but but no man it's cool because i just told any yesterday too i'm like you know
00:03:39.080
people come in here and we get the same reaction and and it doesn't it hasn't gotten over me i don't
00:03:44.820
know like i don't know about you guys but it hasn't really gotten old at all like the same reaction but
00:03:48.860
it's always cool to see people come in here and see this because like i said i don't have that
00:03:52.160
experience in the 22 years before this right it's proof it's evidence like you can't debate this yeah
00:03:56.780
this is not up for debate yeah that's just great i mean dude look you know we got a long way to go
00:04:02.060
but i mean it does feel good to i'll tell you what what's cool to me coming here every day
00:04:07.200
is seeing a the careers that are built that these these people who are young who are building their
00:04:12.800
lives building careers and doing it in a way that truly changes people's lives for the better
00:04:21.460
you know what i mean and and dude that's what i'm i feel so fortunate like you know i mean bro you
00:04:27.580
know like you're the only guy i bitch to besides him i was gonna say wait whoa whoa well i said besides
1.00
00:04:33.900
him motherfucker like will you go let me get it out like but you know i get frustrated like i tell
0.99
00:04:40.460
you guys you know i get frustrated dude the thing about the thing about ed and i both and the guys in
1.00
00:04:45.620
this room is like we're in the fucking process doing it like you know um we're not these guys who
0.97
00:04:52.520
fancy themselves coaches who make all their money from coaching of how to do business which they've never
0.98
00:04:58.480
done like so we're in this shit every day so i mean like dude like i get pissed off i get frustrated
0.92
00:05:04.440
i get angry i get impatient just like everybody else does and the one thing that i truly always brings
0.95
00:05:12.240
me back is knowing that literally everything that we do here contributes to people becoming better
00:05:19.840
yeah and i mean dude it just i think about that you know like uh we were i think we were talking
00:05:24.640
yesterday um i forget who was it wasn't i don't forget who was we're talking to us we're talking
00:05:28.960
about working here every day and like sometimes i get used to it right like i'm like oh this is you
00:05:33.960
know it's work but dude then i get like stopped myself and i'm like wait a minute dude like you're
0.94
00:05:39.260
building the next fucking nike like yes what the fuck else could you be doing that's any cooler than
0.95
00:05:43.800
this well because you're in it like this is a good rule for everybody in their life doesn't matter
0.99
00:05:47.180
what you're doing if you're an entrepreneur it's hard for you to have actual perspective on your own
00:05:50.160
life because you're in it you're yeah the closer you are to something kind of the blurrier it gets
00:05:54.240
if you stare at something long enough think about anything you stare at eventually if you look too
00:05:57.900
long without blinking it just gets blurry right you have to step back from it to get focused again
00:06:01.820
when you're in something every day for all entrepreneurs it just gets blurry you lose
00:06:05.720
perspective on it so it's cool to have another set of eyes come in here and then erica my sister's with
00:06:09.800
me we're driving over this morning and she's like it just dawned on me all these people every
00:06:14.040
cubicle every office those people are dependent on this company flourishing that you guys have built
00:06:18.800
like that's an amazing responsibility yeah as an entrepreneur too it's awesome i think a good a good
00:06:23.440
the comment that andrew was speaking of is yesterday does it still it's still shock you
00:06:28.240
when you come in and you i made a little post last night in my story and it's actually remember
00:06:32.660
when you wanted what you currently have because that perspective it is awesome it just made me
00:06:36.940
spawn that because you know it is i always use it's hard to see the forest when you're in the trees
00:06:42.400
you know what i mean you got to get up outside and take a peek at it and it is difficult right
00:06:46.420
and but it is necessary to your point it's very necessary to make sure that you continue to check back and
00:06:51.200
i hate to use the term smell the roses but gain some perspective and look around and
0.99
00:06:55.600
otherwise this entrepreneur game will eat your ass alive oh i think that's the part that most
0.98
00:07:00.040
people feel like they're alone and the truth is is man that's it actually probably means you're in
0.99
00:07:04.400
the right spot you know what i mean like when you're fucking struggling and you don't realize
0.92
00:07:07.660
like kind of what's going on and you think you're doing well but you don't think you're doing well you
0.99
00:07:11.180
don't know what the fuck's going on that's normal totally scary you know i tell sports teams and i go
0.90
00:07:15.560
talk to them man when you're winning a championship it never feels like it when you're in the midst of
0.99
00:07:20.100
doing something great it almost never feels like it while you're doing it because of the grind all
00:07:24.220
the problems all the challenges all the setbacks you just never feel like it when you step back
0.96
00:07:28.600
from it that was dj not me when you step back first fucking rodeo apparently a fox welcome to the big
0.98
00:07:33.680
leagues kid yeah turn your buzzers off um it never feels like it when you're doing it so it was cool
0.82
00:07:38.480
for me just to be here and that's the other thing about being alone that's why he and i one of the
00:07:41.400
reasons we started our arte was all these entrepreneurs do feel alone and it's good if you can be
00:07:45.320
connected to a group of people like what we've created in our coaching stuff that's one of the
00:07:48.960
reasons he and i did it because we don't need to be doing it and to your point on all these gurus
00:07:53.280
out there you gotta look at who they are if any more than like five percent of their actual income
00:07:57.660
comes from coaching you on how to do things they're probably not very good at doing things
0.92
00:08:01.920
otherwise they'd be doing it right because there's a hell of a lot more money to be made in fucking real
0.96
00:08:05.960
business than there is in fucking coaching yeah and this place is real business yeah for sure look dude
0.98
00:08:10.920
you know the real it's hard dude we're seasoned you know i hate saying that i'm definitely seasoned
1.00
00:08:19.340
bro you're you're fucking i'm 50 seasoned you're fucking like extra crispy thank you
1.00
00:08:23.960
so dude bro i'm just like the lightly spiced you you know around the corner
1.00
00:08:32.420
hey listen those double fried chicken wings are fucking good they're fucking good so but like
0.74
00:08:46.060
dude i think it's important to touch on this because we have so many young hungry uh want to
0.97
00:08:53.160
be successful people um not just in arte but like listening to the show and listening to your show and
00:08:59.220
and you know people want to win man and we have this society now that's like teaching everybody
00:09:03.900
that you know winning's bad and it's not um noble to win and it's not a good thing to win and
00:09:10.900
one of my i know you get this too but one of my biggest things that i get from people is
00:09:16.740
you know they feel almost guilty for pursuing more than what like their mom and dad had or like
00:09:23.920
their friends have and i just want to talk about that for a second because you know you guys out
00:09:30.200
there you have to understand that when you do something outside the norm you're going to catch
00:09:35.660
criticism you're going to catch heat you're going to get people that don't understand it you're going
00:09:40.040
to get people that don't want to be around you anymore for the simple fact that you're working
00:09:44.280
your ass off and they're they're not and it makes them feel bad and like guys you know winning
0.90
00:09:50.280
is is i believe i believe winning is a is some the the will to win is something that we're born with
0.93
00:09:58.260
and then bred out of and you know you look at a little kid you know i always use the example of
00:10:03.980
the little nerf basket right like like a little toddler they understand that when they throw the
00:10:09.640
nerf ball up and it goes in the basket they get excited like dude they weren't taught that they know
00:10:14.500
it automatically and we have a society that teaches people that it's bad it's bad to put the nerf ball
0.99
00:10:20.820
in the basket guys they want you to suck they need you to suck they need you dependent on everything
0.99
00:10:28.020
that they offer so that you have to need them that it's a need for them and guys those of you
0.99
00:10:35.520
struggling with this right now i want to make this point to you if you were able to look at all the
00:10:43.200
people who criticize you and you were able to look at their life 10 years from now or 20 years from now
00:10:49.340
you would not give two fucks about the criticism that they're giving you because of where they're
00:10:56.360
going to be and where you're trying to get and if you could just keep that in mind it's going to get
00:11:01.260
you freed up to pursue what it is you're doing with less you know drag less guilt less pressure less
00:11:09.260
negativity and sal you and i were talking this morning about the importance of literal like
00:11:14.740
literally being not just being aware of the energy suck but eliminating it completely you know it
00:11:23.680
i gave a meeting to our guys yesterday it's like a 10 i always i try to live my meetings or teach
00:11:30.340
lead the guys and the factors of what i want to live leave for my kids and i gave a meeting 10 10 points
00:11:36.460
on how to live life or 10 points i want my kids to live life by and one of them was eliminate the
00:11:41.000
drama like p we all have these people in our circles who and and it's their yours are your
00:11:46.860
friends the same friends are your friends from high school or grade school or college that you just
00:11:50.760
kind of by having stance like just learn well he's one of my friends so you accept that and you know
00:11:54.980
one of those things is identifying that no maybe you don't have to accept that and point one is your
00:12:00.120
friend of drama if they'll talk with you about them they'll talk about you with them and i always use
00:12:06.320
this term in relationships like if they'll cheat on you they'll cheat with or they'll cheat with you
00:12:09.480
they'll cheat on you right and so understanding like you have to eliminate that from your life
00:12:13.000
because life in general by itself is hard enough business in general by itself is hard enough when
0.86
00:12:18.040
people closest to you are talking shit about you it makes it 10 times harder because you value their
0.91
00:12:22.420
opinion but when you learn that their opinion is built in jealousy and drama and you can push that
0.97
00:12:27.080
away from you it makes it easier to to disassociate yourself from those thoughts and so for the young
00:12:32.680
person the 25 the 30 the 35 year old entrepreneur sometimes you throttle back because you're afraid
0.99
00:12:38.540
of what that person's gonna say and like the advice that i'd want to give my kids is fuck that person
0.98
00:12:43.080
because it doesn't matter and to andrew's point like 10 years from now it really doesn't matter well
1.00
00:12:47.960
dude it hurts right of course never cool to hear that shit like you never want to hear like from the
0.94
00:12:53.800
people because dude you're the the context of the achiever is to be better right and you're
0.99
00:13:00.980
when you want to be better you automatically understand that if you're better other people
00:13:05.500
get better if you even get one percent better you can look at your the people closest to you and you
00:13:10.140
can see that maybe not all of them are getting better but that one guy over there he's getting
0.94
00:13:14.720
better because you're getting better and that's noble shit and that's where the nobility of winning
0.99
00:13:19.060
comes from you know people like to talk and trash people who have money or have success or have built
0.98
00:13:25.580
something like you have or like we have or like other a lot of guys listening have right they like to
0.96
00:13:31.560
say oh well you know how many fuckers you could do with that or you know how many uh meals you could
0.95
00:13:36.960
do with that or this or that and they like to point all these things you could be doing but what's more
0.99
00:13:41.940
noble than being the example of winning so that it replicates itself fucking everywhere there's nothing
0.99
00:13:48.340
more noble than that in my opinion so i i i would say to you guys who are struggling with this shit
0.97
00:13:55.860
ed you know this dude i just kind of figured this out in the last two years yeah like i i would let
0.88
00:14:01.820
everybody kind of chip at my energy because dude i cared about you care right like okay um you got a
0.95
00:14:08.260
question about how to tie your fucking shoes well here's a video on how to tie your shoes like i got so
0.97
00:14:12.660
i got so overwhelmed or so i guess sucked into trying to be useful and helpful that i almost
0.99
00:14:20.620
forgot how to be helpful to myself and you know the biggest thing i think i've learned this last
00:14:27.280
two years that we've been doing or three years we've been doing things together is and i'm just
0.85
00:14:32.200
learning it is what i just said like dude i don't want to fucking be like you you know i'm saying like
0.98
00:14:39.500
okay you're saying you think i'm a you think i'm fooling myself you're fucking right i am
0.99
00:14:44.320
motherfucker you know i'm saying whatever the fuck you say whatever you say bro like but here's the
1.00
00:14:50.820
deal your life is going to be what the fuck it is and my life isn't because i'm willing to keep going
1.00
00:14:56.120
that's the biggest change you've made yeah that's the biggest change that's why your performance has
0.99
00:14:59.900
gone up your happiness has gone up your energy has gone up the reason it bugs you so much by the way is
00:15:04.380
one of the reasons you want to win let's just be honest is you want the recognition you want the
00:15:08.200
significance you want the acknowledgement it comes with winning it's part of why you want to win so
00:15:12.560
when someone's taking that from you before you've even gotten there yeah it can wound you right that's
00:15:17.000
that's a legitimate thing here's i'll tell everybody two things number one you'll forget most of them
0.76
00:15:21.440
but there'll be two or three you remember and the fucking sweetest thing in the world is to see those
0.83
00:15:26.380
people 10 years later when they have to face you yeah and you know that they know that you know all
0.75
00:15:31.560
the things they said about you yeah and they're on your jet yeah they're on your boat they're in your car
00:15:36.000
they're they're at the foundation meeting you have where you're making the big donation it's a really
0.87
00:15:40.840
good fucking feeling when you see them and then when you're evaluating these people around you
0.90
00:15:44.700
here's one of the things look i've been talking about this a lot lately there's a thing called
0.99
00:15:48.200
emotional maturity i'm not talking about whether you screw around and tell funny jokes that's not
0.62
00:15:52.340
immaturity i'm talking about emotional maturity like under pressure when people are talking crap do
00:15:57.880
they have the maturity level to disengage from it or do they contribute do they add to it if you hang
00:16:02.280
around mainly emotionally immature people you're gonna have a bad life oh yeah like you and i we
00:16:07.060
screw around and we're funny but yeah we're emotionally mature people like when the pressure's
00:16:11.260
on we perform at a high level right that's that's a very important part of it and then look at who's
00:16:16.620
around you just like be real not that you like them or they're funny but like you look at your three
00:16:20.800
or four people closest to you right now if i said to you name me three or four things they have in
00:16:25.620
their life you gotta have whether it's money or relationship their physicality whatever
00:16:30.020
fit their faith can you name really quick that dude's got three or four things i gotta have in
00:16:34.620
my life if you can't name them that quick they're not bringing a lot of value to you and the reverse
00:16:38.240
if i said hey look at them they have three or four things you want nothing to do with they're a mess
00:16:43.420
in their relationship they're a mess financially if you can name those real quick you may not have
0.98
00:16:48.200
the right people in your damn circle yeah what a name like you're in my circle yeah for that reason
0.91
00:16:52.080
yeah you got lots of stuff in your life i'd like some more of and you don't have a lot of things in
0.99
00:16:56.940
your life i don't want yeah that's why you're around me it's really simple dude what do you
00:17:00.920
think what about the other side of that right like what if you're the guy coming up or the girl coming
00:17:05.260
up and you you find uh somebody who is way further down the path than you right and you're trying to
00:17:13.180
connect what are some do's and don'ts for that because like one of the things that that has that
00:17:20.840
i've started to realize is and i've had to cut a lot of people out that i don't necessarily want to
00:17:24.880
cut out because they don't respect my emotional bank account or my energy you know what i'm saying
00:17:31.120
so like these like these people they really they're really good people right and they want to win and
0.94
00:17:36.760
they're hungry and they have all the like if we were investing in them as a stock we'd fucking invest
0.86
00:17:40.980
in them right but but they they take too much you know what i'm saying yes like what do you what do
00:17:46.940
you say to people like well bring value number one like you'd be surprised you can bring value to
00:17:51.920
someone like andy or i like literally just encouraging what we're doing a resource a
00:17:56.400
referral a thank you or whatever that's a big deal but when you're draining from that person where
00:18:01.560
you're asking too much from them too soon prematurely that's the deal and here's what
00:18:05.800
people have to realize you're more valuable than you think and because you think some people because
00:18:10.260
they think they don't bring any value so your value is your performance your knowledge your
00:18:14.540
connections your relationships your belief all that stuff that's value me and you value that far
00:18:19.480
beyond how rich somebody is absolutely but you most people they discount their value and here's
00:18:24.840
what they think i'll be valuable with information i'm going to tell him about someone else i'm going
00:18:29.800
to explain this other situation i'm going to gossip with him i mean they think that's their value
00:18:34.340
because they don't see value in themselves beyond that and the way you indicate to me you have very
00:18:39.600
little value to offer me is by thinking your value is gossip information or taking away from another
00:18:45.220
person or someone that i care about you're done hey ed did you see this post about you you got it
1.00
00:18:49.280
yeah fuck you man like you just ruined my fucking day exactly like now i don't want to talk to you
1.00
00:18:53.800
at all right like dude yeah people fucking talk about people you know what i'm saying like and when
1.00
00:18:59.460
when when you have a lot of people that follow you guess what not everybody fucking loves you of course
0.99
00:19:04.200
so the last thing i want is some motherfucker sending me some shit some bozo said about me
1.00
00:19:08.540
who like i said a minute ago isn't going to be doing shit in 10 years you just distracted my entire
1.00
00:19:13.520
fucking energy and you think you did me a fucking hey bro i got your back no you don't there you go
0.99
00:19:18.780
that's the one no you don't yeah you don't have my back because you're not you're not understanding
0.99
00:19:22.620
that you just completely fucking got me off track from where i'm trying to go you know and and dude
0.99
00:19:27.440
that's a huge one yeah people don't understand how much winning requires energy yeah so if you're
0.84
00:19:32.160
doing anything to deplete someone's energy in any way shape or form you're not bringing them any value
00:19:36.680
especially when they're super high level right highest level people dude they're they're they're super
00:19:42.020
fucking conscious of that energy bank account and dude if you really want to be valuable to somebody
0.84
00:19:46.520
that you're trying to learn from guys because dude that's what it takes right like you have to have
0.98
00:19:51.300
people we actually talked about this yesterday we did people it's very very hard for people to
00:19:58.080
materialize things when they've never seen it or they've never touched it or they've never witnessed
00:20:04.000
it and like when you're the first person in your family to make a hundred thousand dollars it's a big
0.96
00:20:09.660
fucking deal right when you're the first person in your family to buy a house that's a big fucking deal
0.91
00:20:14.780
and it's hard to imagine having those things if nobody you ever know has had it so it's important
0.98
00:20:23.680
to attach yourself to people who do have the things you want but it's important to make deposits into
00:20:29.440
their account because when you make deposits into their energy account guess what they're going to do
00:20:33.980
back they're going to give you deposits they're going to reciprocate successful good successful
00:20:38.400
people are huge believers in the law of reciprocity yes and they want to pay you back beyond what you've
00:20:43.580
paid them but the best move is to make a couple deposits to your point first deposits can literally
00:20:48.980
be hey man let me just explain to you how what you just did really helped change my life right
00:20:53.420
contributes to my energy people think ah they hear that all the time i never can hear that enough
00:20:57.860
me neither because dude the negative balances it out you got it yeah and you and i both are i'm
00:21:01.740
saying this on the plane yesterday flying out here where these guys are all kind of taking notes
00:21:04.760
and i'm talking and they're like man you took the whole three or four hours with us these guys
00:21:08.200
that were flying with me and i'm like it wasn't that long ago nobody wanted to hear from me yeah
00:21:12.320
nobody knew who the heck i am no one cared what i had to say i'm grateful for this man and the fact
00:21:16.780
that you're grateful for what i'm doing yeah gives me more energy to give you more of it so i'm
00:21:21.500
reciprocating that's a big deal and by the way if you're coming up you fall in love with the law of
00:21:26.120
reciprocity you over deliver to people oh keep your your commitment small and your delivery high
00:21:32.040
and you will find that people want to deliver more to you so that's i know for you and i that's a huge
0.97
00:21:36.180
one for us is don't take my damn energy no because i will eliminate you yeah unfortunately yeah it's
0.94
00:21:41.320
just the way it has to be dude it's it's not it's not a matter of want you have to yeah because we have
0.99
00:21:46.940
so much shit going dude look guys if you're if you're trying to learn from someone who's let's say
0.98
00:21:51.880
you know wealth like super wealthy has all the shit and all the shit right you have if you don't
0.99
00:21:59.620
contribute you'll get nothing you'll get nothing but i know i i think you know there's a huge
0.98
00:22:06.700
identifier here and it gets lost a lot of times and this is the the personal struggle i have with
00:22:11.800
like the ig superstar world is humility oh you know being able to like there are guys upstream from us
00:22:17.280
that you know like hey man like one thing about and andrew touching us and ed you did as well is you
00:22:22.820
know one thing that is innate inside the success realm of businesses you love to give back because
00:22:29.440
you love to help which is why you're successful that's part of the deal and that humility to be
00:22:34.040
able to express to somebody like you don't have to come to the table and flex on everybody you know
0.99
00:22:37.880
what i'm saying like you don't have to be the fucking baddest motherfucker in the room and i think
0.99
00:22:41.220
you know the things where i've learned the most is honestly just by being humble and saying hey man
0.99
00:22:47.180
like i have a lot to learn from you and i would love i would just love some advice because
00:22:50.700
i mean our entire company pay structure is built off that humble question like hey i don't know
00:22:55.560
what the fuck i'm doing you've already done this and i just need a little bit of help could you help
0.99
00:23:00.320
me and the person was like fuck yeah i'm in you know because you love there's a part of your brain
0.99
00:23:04.960
that loves to figure this shit out and that's what makes you successful is you have the keys and we all
0.99
00:23:09.820
like to have the keys right and be able to help somebody downstream but to be able to go upstream
0.98
00:23:13.900
you got to have humility it's not about an ig flex and i think that's where a lot of the young
00:23:17.940
entrepreneurs get lost in translation right now like they want to be fucking cool on instagram
0.98
00:23:22.020
well before you're fucking cool on instagram man you got to express a lot of fucking humility and
0.98
00:23:25.460
go ask for fucking help what i like about you sal and your brother and andy is uh you toe this line
0.99
00:23:31.900
that all of my friends have it's a really and it's very difficult nuance super confident people who also
0.99
00:23:37.960
have humility like the best athletes you played you know this you cannot be a high level performing
00:23:42.980
athlete with like not incredible confidence right you take confidence from an athlete they're they're
00:23:47.600
done yet they're humble enough to still want to be coached hard they're humble enough to still want
00:23:52.620
to grow and that's like a brady to me everyone thinks he's an aw shucks you know he's not this dude
00:23:56.960
is loaded with confidence but he's humble enough that he still wants to be coached hard he still wants
00:24:01.220
to grow he still wants to improve if i looked at all my friends they're all different careers one of my
00:24:05.940
best friends is a transmission guy right one of them's andy they're just different careers they all have
00:24:11.000
that line where they're like super super confident but they still have been able to maintain a level
00:24:15.480
of humility they're right on the line of the two things that's what all successful entrepreneurs
00:24:19.720
need to learn because there's that other side too i'm super humble i don't know anything and then
00:24:23.940
they're like unresourceful that's right they don't think they can't take initiative you can over humble
00:24:28.000
yourself you can overdo it too so it's both and i think that's you know i always say that's why god
00:24:31.780
gave you two years in one mouth but confidence is built in understanding like when it's my turn to play
0.99
00:24:36.500
i'm fucking playing right and i'm gonna play to fucking win i'm gonna play for fucking blood
0.99
00:24:39.840
but there's times when i need to listen you know what i mean and i think knowing when your time is
0.99
00:24:44.540
to play and when your time is to listen is a is a value that you learn over time and the rest
00:24:51.500
reciprocity is is an understanding like that's your time to speak because you can help but as you
0.93
00:24:57.040
fucking go up the chain man now it's your time to listen it's not always your time to run your mouth
0.85
00:25:00.600
i think that's probably one of the biggest lessons i've learned like sometimes because i mean dude i'm
0.99
00:25:04.900
meeting a lot of cool people right this is dope we're like doing a lot of cool stuff
0.68
00:25:08.020
you gotta learn to just shut the fuck up sometimes just just sit back in the corner and just listen
0.80
00:25:13.720
to what's going on you'll be surprised what you learned you know and like that's probably one of
0.98
00:25:17.680
the biggest things to your point andy about you know find you know giving value to somebody sometimes
0.95
00:25:21.900
you gotta shut the fuck up and just listen you know well it's hard listen right i mean you're
1.00
00:25:25.960
fucking do or listen and do because that's the worst part right the worst part is the motherfuckers
1.00
00:25:31.940
who suck all the information they even pay for it they'll pay for it and then the then they'll yell at you
1.00
00:25:37.920
because they didn't succeed it's like look dude you have to do your fucking part and that's another
0.99
00:25:44.520
thing in the personal development space you see a lot of you see a lot of people who will go to
0.98
00:25:48.720
every fucking show every event every fucking seminar every mastermind and yet they're still
0.94
00:25:55.660
not winning and then when you sell a ticket that's going to teach them what how they can make literally
0.99
00:26:01.500
tens of millions of dollars in a fucking day they complain about a price it's like bro you guys don't
0.97
00:26:06.660
get it like you don't understand the value of the information you don't understand that i can teach
0.99
00:26:12.200
you in one fucking day how to make literally hundreds of millions of dollars all of that
0.97
00:26:15.940
symptoms of the same disease bro like you and i talk about which is they have no intention of ever
0.99
00:26:19.600
executing that's right so like that's that other line where like they're so humble that they have no
00:26:24.780
belief no resourcefulness they take no initiative and so they'll go to the cheap seminar where really
00:26:29.640
there's no value there because they can say they want to take a picture with somebody get no
00:26:32.660
information but then when there's one that could actually help them execute on millions of dollars
00:26:36.880
there's a price issue because you really don't have any intention of executing on this stuff that's
00:26:41.020
going to be taught that's the separator exactly you said you got to do i went to one i've been to
00:26:46.660
one seminar one and it's the best fucking thing i ever did one but it's because i took what that
0.99
00:26:53.140
motherfucker taught me he did it and dude and i still to this day i sell his book i buy his book
0.99
00:26:58.200
the guy's fucking 80 years old he's a real estate agent in phoenix arizona it's how to master the
1.00
00:27:02.900
art of sales tom hopkins like the motherfuckers a gangster right i went to one seminar and i was
0.99
00:27:08.940
like dude that guy's fucking g i'm gonna do what he does and you know what i did it i applied it and
0.99
00:27:13.300
it's worked and it's changed my entire fucking life and so like when you guys talk i don't know
0.98
00:27:17.640
it was a couple months ago i asked andrew i said man how many of these guys go to like every
0.99
00:27:20.380
fucking seminar he's and he went on this rant he's like god bro this is the thing that fucking
0.98
00:27:24.380
drives me bonkers because you know you see and this comes back to like the ig flex like they want
1.00
00:27:28.760
to show everybody to ed's point you're taking the picture like hey man fuck the picture go get busy
0.95
00:27:33.660
you know i'm saying go get busy because nothing's ever going to replace one foot in front of the
0.98
00:27:36.960
other if you're going to fucking try to get this journey down but that's a big thing you just said
0.91
00:27:40.080
so this is ironic but my first seminar ever was tom hopkins no way he's old school blue or red
0.96
00:27:45.500
alternative choice you know all that stuff he teaches but here's what the big deal was and this is what i feel
00:27:49.600
like if i'm gonna brag me and andy are the best at in the world now tom hopkins for that time gave me
00:27:56.280
the confidence that i could persuade and influence people right like maybe you look at the scripts now
00:28:01.580
you're like ah they're a little bit dated it doesn't matter i believed in what was being taught even if it
00:28:06.240
was not perfect information and i executed it with total certainty and people now i think people would
00:28:11.980
argue you know when they listen to andy or i talk like they're really good communicators i learned to
00:28:16.440
communicate at that freaking seminar in scottsdale arizona with his hairpiece on yeah yeah yeah
00:28:21.900
buck teeth dude i want to bring him in for our sales team because just your point being is like
0.97
00:28:26.280
asking questions we should bring me on the show bro he is old school gangster one of the greatest
00:28:31.520
honors of my one of my greatest honors of my life because i went like three times because it was like
00:28:36.320
a have you had him on your show no and i need to yeah he had me come speak in scottsdale finally
00:28:41.580
and i was like dude that's cool for free he's like no we're paying no no i'm coming out i'm honored to
00:28:46.860
stay on that stage with you man so i don't know i don't even know where tom is the last few years
00:28:51.080
but i'm gonna tell you same exact thing but we both executed on it and it's your ability to persuade
00:28:56.520
and i think that's what you and i teach really good yeah you know really well now and and the
00:29:00.780
communication thing he's always about opening and questions like learn ask some humiliating question
0.94
00:29:05.100
or uh some you know ask learn about the person so you can help solve a fucking problem i mean it's
0.92
00:29:09.260
at the end of the day it's what we have to do right if you're you're in business solve problems
0.95
00:29:12.020
if you're gonna make money you got to be the best at solving problems you want to make the most money
0.62
00:29:15.260
solve the most fucking problems that's it like it's a simple equation and he teaches you the concept
0.91
00:29:19.160
like hey i'm gonna figure out whatever i'm you might close all these doors on me but i'm gonna get
0.98
00:29:23.060
to one by simply asking fucking questions not only that by solving that one that's open you'll get the
0.94
00:29:27.220
one that's closed to open that's right from the backside you go in when you unlock it from the
0.99
00:29:30.840
backside you're like all right listen now that we've gained a little bit of trust
00:29:33.120
that's what people are missing dude that's what these young guys are missing man
0.99
00:29:35.300
you you young guys out there you're enamored by the wrong shit and i'm not saying cars i'm not
0.99
00:29:40.820
saying dude i love fucking cars i love the baller life i fucking ed loves it too we both fucking love
0.99
00:29:45.540
it it's fucking i'm gonna go check out his fucking badass airplane literally right after i get off
0.99
00:29:49.880
this fucking podcast it's awesome but you guys have to understand that to get to that level you have
0.99
00:29:57.000
to create a real company and a lot of you guys have these tools now like you know click funnels
0.98
00:30:03.480
or different sorts of uh you know facebook advertising and and and all the different
00:30:07.900
things that we can do and you create a cash flow right but it's not a company because what happens
00:30:13.540
is the minute you have to that product or that this and you know wears off you got to start a new one
00:30:18.820
and so you're constantly chasing the flow and and dude if you guys who are young who are able to do
0.98
00:30:25.700
that you're way ahead i agree with you but going out and buying all these fucking cars and balling
0.99
00:30:30.800
around and you know all this shit when you're 22 years old dude you you don't even understand
1.00
00:30:36.020
how big of a shit you're taking on the opportunity you have because you could literally be 10 years of
0.99
00:30:42.820
fucking ahead of where i was or where you were by just understanding like hey dude i got this flow
1.00
00:30:48.320
now i'm going to create an actual company around it that's right and dude don't shit on the
0.98
00:30:54.520
opportunity just because we have these amazing tools right now we have amazing opportunity with
00:30:59.860
technology and all these things to make money but the money that you make should be reinvested into
00:31:05.800
actually building something that's sustainable so that you don't have to chase your tail for the
00:31:10.200
next 20 years because dude what if what if that technology changes or what if what if it goes away or
00:31:15.680
what if there's a dude you do not want to be the guy who's having to come up with the next widget
00:31:20.360
every fucking four months you know and and dude that's the biggest opportunity i see being
0.91
00:31:25.380
squandered right now and i see like almost all these these uh quote-unquote masterminds which by
0.96
00:31:32.040
the way that is not what arate is um it's a community but i i see that the that's the focus
00:31:39.420
right like how do we get ads to convert how do we do and like people are enamored with that but
0.71
00:31:44.360
nobody's teaching them how to build a fucking company how to hire people how to fire people how to
00:31:49.500
build systems how to build culture how to brand how to market they are not the same thing you know
0.99
00:31:55.280
dude you you guys have to understand like if you're the guy right now who's who's doing a little bit of
00:32:02.720
something dude don't don't squander that because dude that cash flow could be used to to as the seed
0.97
00:32:09.360
to create a fucking forest that you'll never have to worry about ever again you know and that's that's
0.92
00:32:15.320
my biggest gripe for the younger generation right now i see a lot of people hustling see a lot of
0.98
00:32:19.600
people working hard it's not that they're lazy it's that no one's telling them like hey bro
0.94
00:32:24.300
fucking do this you know what i'm saying yeah they don't know how to scale and i think i think you're
0.94
00:32:29.580
right about that i know you are the other thing too is like there's this i see a lot of dabblers
0.99
00:32:33.980
like they're involved in like four five six seven different things at one time because they believe
00:32:37.880
this notion that that that's saying that's out there that's a fact but it's not true that
00:32:42.620
millionaires all have multiple streams of income right that's a fact that is completely not true
00:32:46.720
because here's the truth once they became millionaires they diversified and bought some
00:32:51.380
buildings or had other stuff but they became multi-millionaires by getting great at something
00:32:55.920
like get fully obsessed with something you're doing and execute on it you did this like the
00:33:02.060
stores in this to me are the same thing yeah right i got great at one thing first got really wealthy
00:33:07.400
yeah once i'm a millionaire i've got multiple streams of income i see too many people
00:33:10.820
well i'm in mortgages but i also do like alarms and i've also got like this protein store yeah like
00:33:17.600
you're not gonna get rich yeah you're not because guess what i'm full bore crushing every day obsessed
00:33:22.700
with one thing and you're dabbling in the same thing be like saying i'm gonna be the greatest
00:33:26.800
quarterback of all time but i also sell cars on the weekend like there's no way you're gonna compete
00:33:31.540
because dude you're not you can't i think the point that gets lost there i think it's almost like
00:33:39.200
an ego point that people or maybe maybe it's unawareness i don't know it could be one or the
00:33:43.800
other but a lot of people think that they can spread their energy right like i can do this and
00:33:50.800
i can do that and i can do this too and you can once you've this has dug its roots down so big
00:33:58.040
that it allows you to shift from putting your energy here to here okay and then this one gets mature
00:34:03.720
and then you move here but what i but what we're talking about here is like you know you go plant
00:34:08.060
three seeds right you're trying to grow three trees but one trees in california one trees in missouri
00:34:12.420
and one trees in florida you can't fucking do it because it's it's impossible right so that's what
0.94
00:34:18.100
we're talking about and you have to understand that like dude if you guys aren't there's other people
0.97
00:34:24.180
out there that are hungry or hungrier than you fucking hungrier than you that are putting all their
0.99
00:34:29.400
energy every fucking bit of their being into the one thing and you're thinking that you could beat
0.99
00:34:35.740
them or compete with them by doing a little of three things guys you're going to get smashed
0.99
00:34:40.300
that's the arrogance side yes you think oh well my my 10 or my two hours is better than his 10 hours
0.99
00:34:45.300
no no motherfucker it might you might beat that you might beat one guy or you might be two guys but
1.00
00:34:48.980
the third guy he's going to shove your fucking no you got to respect your competitors that's right
1.00
00:34:52.300
yeah that's a good point that's respecting your competitors yeah for sure dude like i i am under no
0.99
00:34:56.360
no uh illusions like i know my weaknesses i know my strengths my strength is this i will never
0.99
00:35:03.180
fucking quit and i will work harder than fucking you every fucking day you might be smarter than me
1.00
00:35:07.700
you might be you might have more resources than me you might i don't know you might be fucking nike
1.00
00:35:12.840
and be 50 years ahead but i promise you i am working fucking harder than you every fucking day
0.99
00:35:18.080
and if you're going to take me down you better fucking bring it yeah you better bring a lunch the thing
0.99
00:35:21.980
that you said earlier about will to win when we're born with it yeah the truth is most people their
0.99
00:35:27.400
will can be bought at some point there's a point like with enough failure their will to win can be
00:35:32.540
they'll sell their family's dreams they'll sell their kids they'll sell their future like look just
00:35:35.780
wasn't meant to be i couldn't do it bad breaks and they relent they eventually give him my will to win
00:35:40.980
was not for sale when the same things would have got someone's will to be bought i didn't sell i wanted
00:35:46.520
to sell a few times i'm like i might be i remember a couple times my back being up against the wall
00:35:50.180
like i'm almost out but i'm not out and i stayed that's different and then the other insidious
00:35:55.120
thing is will to win can be bought with some measure of success with some people that's also
00:35:59.780
not true with you so like i'm making 100 grand a year okay i'll slow down i'm making a millionaire
00:36:03.500
they slow down they start getting goofy they don't work as hard at two million dollars a year in income
00:36:07.760
as they did at fifty thousand dollars a year in income whereas the real players their will to win
00:36:13.580
increases as they have success and not to like talk about this dude again but to me that is some crazy
00:36:18.740
thing about brady yeah it is crazy to me that you continue to win at that level and he seems
00:36:23.960
hungrier and once you'd think dude you got seven of these now like take a breather the guy had one
00:36:29.380
day of tequila on a boat where he throws the trophy and he's back throwing the next day like that's it
00:36:33.940
right so you gotta evaluate your will has it been bought at all like as you're listening to this if
00:36:39.120
you're going through failure you're going through struggle you're being completely honest as your
00:36:43.180
belief your effort your energy your execution been bought even one percent and if it has you
00:36:48.640
better freaking shift that right now yeah and if you've been successful you're making two three
00:36:52.620
hundred thousand a year or something you're listening to this are you after it as psycho scared
0.95
00:36:56.720
crazy you know how you were when you were broke afraid you weren't gonna are you after it like you
00:37:01.160
were then now that you're at 250 now that you're at 450 now that you're at 650 because if you're not
00:37:06.220
you're not going to get to the big time yeah you have to have that will increase not get bought
00:37:10.100
that's a huge one bro i i i think that's 100 spot on and and reflected in the real world evidence
00:37:17.740
that i've seen over my career working with high performers as well and being in business like
0.96
00:37:22.280
fuck dude do you work harder now or less i'm more afraid now to your point i never looked at it that
0.98
00:37:27.760
way i'm gonna say we're running harder now than we ever fucking ran i can't see out of my right eye
0.99
00:37:32.500
you know what i'm saying like i lost vision of my right eye right now because i'm so stressed but
0.54
00:37:36.260
i i think i operate more out of fear now than i ever have me too you know what i'm saying
00:37:40.080
and it's you know when you're and that this is perspective do you know what it is bro it's that
1.00
00:37:46.280
we all of us here know what it's like to fucking have nothing yep you can always tell the motherfuckers
0.98
00:37:51.460
that really have had nothing what i what i see is a lot of people on instagram who have this sob story
0.99
00:37:57.320
of this shit they kind of made up and you could kind of tell because they're not aggressive and
0.98
00:38:01.960
you're like why the fuck is this guy celebrating his win here when he really hasn't done that much
1.00
00:38:08.100
and he's getting complacent he's getting lazy you know and come to find out the guy grew up you know
0.98
00:38:14.100
upper middle class and like he never really had to like do much and you know the whole story is kind
00:38:20.020
of overcooked about where he came from and dude the truth is i the the guys who do this is why i took
0.99
00:38:26.800
you where the fuck we came from you know when you came here two three years ago fuck dude i don't want
0.99
00:38:32.900
to go back yeah you know what i'm saying like it's not about people think it's a greed thing no it's
1.00
00:38:38.080
not it's a fucking i don't i'm trying to create as much distance between that and me as fucking
0.99
00:38:44.000
possible talking about this yesterday though like you and i still have we're both dreamers we're
0.95
00:38:47.800
sending each other houses all the time and different things we want to do but we both still
00:38:51.460
to sal's point still operate out of fear to some extent too which is healthy i don't want it to go i
00:38:56.060
was at a dinner a couple weeks ago there was all these dudes sitting around and
00:38:59.020
and they're i'm like tell me something that you think that you would not want most people
00:39:03.120
wouldn't think they went on the table they got to me i said if i'm being totally honest with you
00:39:06.020
i still operate out of fear a lot that not and i don't even think it's an unhealthy thing like i
00:39:10.420
think that is humility i think if you have no fears whatsoever i have no fears i'm not afraid of
00:39:15.380
anything that's a lack of humility because i'm a man god's in charge i'm not in charge if i have no
00:39:20.380
fears whatsoever maybe i'm a little bit overconfident and so i don't think it's bad that you operate out
00:39:26.220
of fear so i think it's actually a good thing i think it's healthy to think i don't want to
00:39:29.500
the andy's point about creating distance that's so true man like i worry about that all the time
00:39:34.120
and i i mean i was just i'm i am so good show scorned by the the instagram fame thing that i
00:39:41.720
was explaining to you yesterday like the whole you know the antander's story about it being cooked a
00:39:46.080
little bit too much i don't even i didn't even like showing that on my story a couple weeks ago
00:39:49.660
like i don't i don't even like yeah there's an appreciation there right i don't like showing that
0.83
00:39:55.100
stuff but to andrew's point part of it is like i don't like to go there because it's fucking i
0.98
00:40:00.200
mean it's real to me and i don't ever want to fucking go back i can look around that shit and
0.96
00:40:03.800
i think to myself like there was a point and i don't know where this fork in the road happened
0.97
00:40:07.200
for us but there's a point where we decided to go left we ain't ever gonna go right and that right
00:40:11.100
led us back to wherever you know and that's the the circulation that you know people live in
00:40:15.520
with their parents like they're they only want to do what their parents did or have done or
00:40:20.080
continue to do you have that fork in the road in your life like when you decide like
00:40:24.100
you're gonna separate yourself from where you came from and what you're going to be and you have
0.90
00:40:28.680
to like you have to fucking let that part of your life go like you're bigger than that you're better
0.99
00:40:32.900
than that i don't even like to drive back down that road even though i want to show our kids that
0.99
00:40:37.120
i want to show them where we came from but at the same point like man i don't even want to be around
0.97
00:40:41.780
that shit and it's not ego it's it's a it's there's there's an eerie fear of just some places could
0.99
00:40:48.000
have been me and it's fuck that i don't want it i think one of the things too is like you don't
1.00
00:40:51.280
really get your goals all the time everyone proves that you get your standards and it's like
0.93
00:40:56.280
standards are what you'll tolerate and like you're saying it like and that thing too however you grew
00:41:00.700
up is cool like i didn't grow up super poor i grew up i guess it was middle class like that's probably
00:41:05.280
how we really grew up right but that's also a detriment because there's not a stimulus to get
00:41:09.900
out of there because you're eating and there's a couple christmas presents there every day but you're
00:41:13.020
not rich you don't dream we never went on vacation we never did anything cool we never talked about
00:41:16.700
a future wasn't part of our life either i don't want that i'm just authentic from where i came
00:41:22.500
from donald trump grew up with a bunch of money right he owns it and he turned it into something
00:41:27.380
magnificent right you got him written down right over there so i think just knowing be owning where
00:41:31.860
you're from and then not tolerating it like i won't tolerate that life you guys won't tolerate
0.92
00:41:36.300
where you grew up and malcolm x has this great quote said that which you do not hate you will
00:41:42.700
eventually tolerate you to keep that will burning you almost have to hate where you're at all the
00:41:47.900
time you almost have to this i don't want i want to create separation even from here that's hard to
00:41:52.360
do when you walk into a facility like this every single day and for some of you it's hard to do
00:41:56.480
because you now own a house you never owned before or you got a cool car you never had before can you
00:42:01.120
almost hate where you're at not hate you but almost not tolerate where you're at like you did when you
00:42:06.460
were totally broke not knowing whether you were going to eat that's the formula and i'm constantly
00:42:10.240
trying to feed myself this lack of tolerance with where i am and i think that's what everybody who
00:42:15.700
does something great is they just won't tolerate anymore the standard by which they're living by
00:42:19.960
and that's harder and harder the further you climb because the rest of the world's like hey where
00:42:23.640
you're at it's pretty cool man slow down enjoy it smell the roses like how come you're not in
00:42:27.480
cabo like nine weeks you're like all these guys on instagram like well i'm in cabo why are you out
1.00
00:42:31.860
doing cardio in the fucking snow when it's minus 20 you motherfucker because i'm here to win
1.00
00:42:35.820
that's right and i know that not every i know that the motherfuckers i'm trying to beat the ceos
1.00
00:42:40.500
of fucking nike and under armor they ain't doing shit they're in cabo that's exactly right that's
1.00
00:42:45.180
how you catch them that's right when they slow down they flinch they get weak that's it blow their
0.99
00:42:49.120
freaking doors that's it and so so you guys you know i get all these every time i do that they're
0.98
00:42:53.520
like i don't know why the fuck you do that well that's why that's why right like what i've done so far
0.99
00:43:00.440
isn't shit like it's not shit what what we're gonna do is change the motherfucking world we're
0.99
00:43:06.160
gonna change the way business is done we're gonna change lives we're gonna change fucking people's
0.99
00:43:10.480
literal trajectory of their fucking existence so that's why i'm out doing fucking cardio when it's
0.99
00:43:17.020
minus 20 degrees but i think that's also why tom brady gets back to throwing the football right
0.98
00:43:21.120
it's part of his winning recipe and when you when you get into these habits and you you create this
00:43:26.280
your winning recipe like you understand that like hey i gotta stay on this course yeah every time i
00:43:30.660
get off this course things go bad things go bad so i'm gonna stay on this course and i think those
00:43:34.720
those forks in the road you have to be self-aware of understanding like hey what's coming down the
00:43:37.720
road when do i take a break when do i not when do i pit stop when do i stay on the road and i you know
00:43:43.020
to ed's point about being overwhelmed i would actually argue and this goes back to the fear i think
00:43:47.720
i'm more overwhelmed today as we sit inside this building we've had the best month in sales we've ever
00:43:53.420
had in a company's career we've had we have more employees create 175 jobs in the last year
00:43:57.880
um we've adapted and and done well even in the in the midst of pandemic like you would look from the
00:44:04.400
outside perspective looking in and say hey everything's all the boxes are ticked green i have
00:44:09.760
more overwhelmed fear of not failure but fear of where we got to go and what we got to do and how we
00:44:14.740
got to get it done now than i did whenever i was whenever we were starting 11 years ago in the
00:44:19.320
first form world there was there's more there's more pressure in that overwhelming because of the
00:44:24.260
the the peer pressure in regards to hey man hey man you should slow down hey man you got it pretty
00:44:31.040
good hey man and in your brain like you're fighting this fight internally and i think this is where my
0.93
00:44:35.260
stress comes from is because like i want to go fucking there and the outside advice tells me to go
0.97
00:44:41.220
here you know what i mean to slow down a little bit to to relax a little bit and i'm and in my brain
0.99
00:44:45.780
like no motherfucker i'm here i'm i got a mission i got a mission to go after i got a dream to chase
0.99
00:44:49.740
and i got to go that way and that constant fucking battle i love it internally is what dude it's what
0.99
00:44:54.920
and it it makes that same fear that allowed me the drive to prove those people wrong whenever i left
1.00
00:45:02.980
my career to come here is the same exact level of fucking fuck you fear i have now to say no fuck
0.99
00:45:08.100
we're gonna go we're going after nike yeah you know what i'm saying like yeah like well you know
1.00
00:45:11.700
a couple billion dollars i don't give a fuck about that yeah i'm going to take that motherfucker's
1.00
00:45:16.300
lunch we're that's that's called 50 billion dollars yeah not fucking two 50 is cool yeah that's what
1.00
00:45:21.440
i'm saying 50 is a lot cooler than fucking two than it's amazon my son's in a golf tournament right now
0.96
00:45:25.160
last night he texted me i'm like what are you doing he sent me some meme on instagram he goes i'm in
0.98
00:45:28.760
the room we got to play again tomorrow all the dudes are out gambling you know and i'm like i'm proud
00:45:33.180
of you man and and he said yeah they're out having fun i said max remember this winning is way more
0.99
00:45:37.140
fun than fun is fun man dude that's a fucking line right there hey write that shit down so i can make
0.97
00:45:43.840
a meme out of it yeah but that's that's a real lesson man i learned that the hard way man say
1.00
00:45:48.900
that again winning is more fun than fun is fun fuck yeah it is and holy fuck dude i'm let's go let's go
0.98
00:45:55.600
win something well no i learned that lesson and i've been really fucking how you learned it what do
0.99
00:46:01.660
you mean well we've been really blessed we have a great father who's been extremely valuable to the
00:46:06.280
mindset of our life and when i got to minor league baseball i acted like i was a big league baseball
00:46:12.540
player and i lived in the wrong ways in the wrong way not not emulating the the guys and i understood
0.95
00:46:19.460
it incorrectly yeah to to ed's point you know like i was more focused on acting this is fucking great
0.69
00:46:25.540
back to the instagram flex i was more interested in how everybody else perceived that i was a minor
00:46:31.000
league baseball dude we didn't make shit i mean i think i made twelve hundred dollars a month right
0.97
00:46:34.160
you know what i'm saying like a bus yeah yeah in the middle of nowhere on a shitty bus like the bus
0.92
00:46:39.080
we ran in college is way cooler than the bus we had in pro ball and you think about like i was so
00:46:44.180
concerned this is instagram literally this is probably why i have like a little ptsd with it
00:46:49.220
i was so concerned with my image outside with how everybody thought that i wasn't focused on the
00:46:55.080
actual things that were going to get me to where i needed to go i was focused on how they were going
00:46:58.240
to perceive me and how they saw my life my my baseball life and you know what i was too busy
0.74
00:47:04.180
in the bars and i was too busy chasing girls and doing all the shit that big leaguers that i thought
1.00
00:47:08.140
big leaguers did but the truth is that's not what big leaguers did and this is the now that i see it
0.96
00:47:12.580
from a different perspective the big leaguers tom brady those types of guys they're hitting
0.96
00:47:17.480
baseballs they're watching film they're in bed at nine o'clock they're fucking watching the game film
0.99
00:47:22.360
they're fucking focused on tomorrow's game i'm in the fucking bar and you see why i never got to
0.99
00:47:26.880
where they were it's not because i didn't have the talent it's because i didn't have the right
0.97
00:47:29.640
fucking framework in my brain to get there so dude that reminds me you know some of the most
0.99
00:47:35.000
successful people that that we've been around they dude i know a motherfuckers were 200 fucking
0.99
00:47:40.900
million dollars that couldn't fucking spell he couldn't spell he didn't know the difference between
0.99
00:47:45.440
our o-u-r and r-a-r-e no he really didn't and dude this motherfucker paid people to spell for him
0.99
00:47:53.060
you know you know why he was able to do that you guys are all think i'm you guys think i'm i know
0.99
00:47:57.860
you're hearing this and you're like oh yeah bullshit no some of the fucking most successful people i know
0.99
00:48:03.220
are not intelligent people they are just people that do shit like we talked about our one friend
1.00
00:48:08.180
yesterday who is very literal and dude he this guy we both know him he's a fucking awesome dude
0.99
00:48:14.640
but i i you told me he's killing it i and i was like well yeah of course he is because dude he
0.98
00:48:20.300
takes shit and he does shit i had a couple guys just text me about our event coming up and and uh
1.00
00:48:26.980
it was the two the two guys that we talk about all the time that fucking do shit they you know
1.00
00:48:32.840
exactly who i'm talking about and dude it's that simple guys you don't have to be the talent like
0.99
00:48:38.580
that's the great thing about business is like everybody kind of doesn't have talent in the beginning
0.91
00:48:43.580
like you you develop the the quote-unquote talent over the 20 years of getting your ass beat and then all
0.98
00:48:49.980
of a sudden everybody thinks you're a fucking genius like dude no man it's really just as
1.00
00:48:55.000
simple as going down the gauntlet as sal likes to say and taking all the kicks right in the nuts
0.99
00:49:00.180
you know and and then at the end you're like all right i'm still here and now everybody's like how
0.98
00:49:04.120
the fuck did you get through that it's like i fucking ran bro like and running in there by the
0.99
00:49:08.940
way and being willing to run into spaces you're not prepared for that's the big like you guys you
1.00
00:49:15.140
weren't perfectly prepared to move into this facility you weren't perfect everything wasn't dialed in
00:49:18.840
and i think a lot of entrepreneurs like entrepreneurs think or even just people in general
00:49:22.000
i'm not going to go try this until i'm completely prepared and ready that's not how life works it's
00:49:27.180
not anything we've had wozniak out to speak to our group who founded apple they didn't know what a mac
00:49:31.860
or a iphone was when they started that company it evolved they moved into the rooms as they went it
00:49:36.940
was a board company in the beginning right like you can't know everything i was working with race car
00:49:42.140
drivers about five years ago this guy carl edwards and he said the hardest thing driving these race cars is
00:49:46.700
was when there's a crash and he said when there's a crash and there's smoke we are taught to drive
00:49:52.180
right into the smoke you guys know this from your racing team at 200 miles an hour not knowing what's
00:49:57.100
on the other side of that deal because you if you don't if you veer a little bit right you run into
00:50:00.620
the wall so it's driving into these places that you don't know what's on the other side but knowing
00:50:06.000
that you're going to work your way you're going to execute you're going to get the coaching and you'll
00:50:09.240
figure it out when you get in there that's how you win in life you figure it out when you get in
00:50:13.860
there you're not always going to be prepared now you have coaches and mentors like us that
00:50:17.040
give you the skills to navigate those spaces when you get in them but no one was ready for covid no
00:50:22.460
no one knew how to drive into this market this world but yet some people flourished and some people
00:50:27.980
didn't that's winning a lot of our people flourish just saying well i think you know i mean yeah i use
00:50:34.300
the term gas on the right for your analogy because it's days of thunder right cold trickle like
0.79
00:50:38.220
fucking smoke goes and you don't know what to do gas on the right you stay in the gas i keep going
0.91
00:50:41.660
and you know that's right when things get shitty and what you realize is how you separate yourself
1.00
00:50:47.380
from at least 70 of the fucking crowd is just simply to walk through the gauntlet that's right
0.96
00:50:51.880
everybody else is on the other side you're gonna go there and then when you get the other side you're
0.99
00:50:54.920
like well fuck all right my competition is whittled down to almost nobody and now i just got to beat
0.99
00:50:58.800
these two motherfuckers you know what i mean like this is easy you know i can fight him and i'll find
0.99
00:51:02.400
him that's a such a great point like if you're if you're if you're a young business owner and i'm not
0.99
00:51:06.380
saying young in age i mean young in your business you know less than five years i would say
00:51:10.160
your competition is so much higher because of where you're at there's more people and so you're
0.89
00:51:16.560
if you guys just fucking hang in there in another five years you go kind of it works like a pyramid
0.88
00:51:22.060
right these people consolidate or they go away or they do something different and now all of a sudden
0.98
00:51:27.400
instead of 10 people you're competing with you're competing with five and then if you hang in another
00:51:31.440
five years it's two or three and dude now it's like okay what's fucking steve doing over there
0.92
00:51:38.600
oh steve's doing that all right we're gonna do it becomes real fucking easy and not only that
0.99
00:51:42.780
when shit gets fucked up you say you get on the phone you say hey steve quit fucking it up
0.98
00:51:47.720
like you start to know everybody the big thing as an entrepreneur is you want to be in the 20-year
1.00
00:51:53.140
room yeah exactly what you're saying the one-year room is loaded with failure and you look around
00:51:57.240
you're like this stuff doesn't work nobody makes it five-year room there's a couple people that have
00:52:01.140
won and there's fewer people in the room you get to the 10-year room you know you're a 10-year
00:52:05.640
entrepreneur whatever you do there's some winning going on but you get to the 20-year room of being
0.89
00:52:09.200
an entrepreneur people are winning in that damn room yeah and it's a very small room and to your
0.67
00:52:14.600
point you can compete in there most people look at entrepreneurship like it's the one-year room all
0.99
00:52:18.660
the time it isn't the one-year room no five years from now it's a different room 10 years from now it's
00:52:22.300
a different trust me as an older dude 20 years from now if you're still an entrepreneur if you're
00:52:27.200
still executing your business that's a pretty good room you're probably standing in yeah just being
00:52:31.380
there will be pretty good for you you know what's cool about the dynamic of the 20-year room
00:52:35.200
is that dude it's it's competition but it's also friendly yeah and like it's respect so yes so
0.69
00:52:41.840
like in the in the beginning the first five years dude you fucking hate everybody you're like dude
1.00
00:52:46.880
fuck you you know you're fucking like dude i'm gonna burn that guy's fucking house down like it's
1.00
00:52:52.260
like this so you're still in the one-year room i've gotten better everybody asks me what's my what's
1.00
00:52:58.100
my greatest accomplishment is i have a fucking degree in andrew no like it is a fucking degree bro
0.98
00:53:03.220
no your greatest accomplishment is actually that no one's house has been burned out
0.99
00:53:07.060
i do like you on this side of the bars so but dude but you do get to that and that's another
00:53:15.820
thing i'm learning like i just be real like i'm recently in the 20-year room right like i'm only
00:53:22.320
this is our 23rd year okay so now i'm in the room and i'm pretty much the youngest guy in that room
00:53:28.060
most of the time and i'm starting you know when i first got in that room and ed you helped me with
00:53:32.440
this you know i'm burning everybody down yeah you know what i'm saying like and i'm and but what i
00:53:37.400
didn't realize is that all these dudes they want to help me you know what i'm saying and then i'm
0.95
00:53:41.520
when i started realizing that i'm like oh fuck dude this is like a fraternity yeah this ain't the
0.89
00:53:45.740
five-year room no and guys that's what you you never hear that talked about but it's so true
1.00
00:53:51.740
like it's true there's so much disrespect in the five and ten years yeah but then when you get to
0.94
00:53:56.100
the 20 years yeah you know you still have those young punks that come around every fucking couple
0.98
00:54:00.120
years yeah there's a dick or two in the 20 year room but you know what happens they get kicked off
0.99
00:54:03.800
the fucking ladder dude so like you know the ladder to success you know in the beginning you're
0.99
00:54:08.160
climbing you're climbing you're climbing it and there's people above that above you on that ladder
1.00
00:54:12.560
no matter who the fuck you are above me above you above fucking everybody and what happens is is if
0.99
00:54:18.700
you get up that ladder with the bad attitude guess what happens those guys above you they they can
1.00
00:54:23.520
either reach down and pull you up or they can kick you off the fucking ladder and dude you don't want
0.99
00:54:28.300
to get kicked off the ladder for the wrong attitude because it happens all the time dude how many times
0.99
00:54:32.460
do in that 20 year room you know our little group of guys you know that we know probably 10 guys
0.83
00:54:38.480
is there a fucking text or something that goes on and be like yeah dude this guy no yeah stay away
1.00
00:54:43.500
from this dude don't put him on your show yeah don't do this don't do dude and motherfuckers
1.00
00:54:47.600
get blackballed without even realizing that they got blackballed because they do ignorant shit like
1.00
00:54:51.840
leave a fucking negative post on your podcast or something and do some fucked up shit to fuck with
1.00
00:54:56.900
you for no reason yeah you were up you were a fool by the way if right now you're in the 10 or 15 year
1.00
00:55:01.860
room and you aren't doing everything you can to agratiate yourself to people in the 20 like that's
0.99
00:55:06.240
right i'm almost in the 30 year room i guess i'm really close this next year i'll be in the 30 year
00:55:10.720
room but i am around dudes who are in the 40 year room i'm even around a few that are in the 50 year
00:55:15.600
room and their lives are freaking bananas yeah i want to do everything i can to be in good graces
00:55:20.640
with those dudes to learn from them so you'll be real careful what you say what you comment on
00:55:24.840
what you share gossip all that stuff we talked about earlier in the show yeah it's gonna hurt
1.00
00:55:29.440
you when you get to that 20 year room yeah kick your ass out yeah dude don't fuck with people man
1.00
00:55:33.200
like that's really that's really what it comes down to don't fuck with people pretty simple yeah like
1.00
00:55:37.800
dude i know a lot of you guys are you know you're you think you're doing something you think
0.99
00:55:42.180
you're cool and you think you could take a bite out of the fucking guy that's like up the ladder
1.00
00:55:46.160
from you bro that will come back to fuck you because what happens is and what you don't realize
1.00
00:55:50.280
is those motherfuckers have a lot of resources and instead of like going to fight you on the
1.00
00:55:55.020
instagram that's not what they do what they do is they make your life really fucking hard without
1.00
00:55:59.020
saying a word right they're running ads to your account they're fucking uh hiring your employees
1.00
00:56:04.620
they're fuck dude and all of a sudden all this bad shit starts happening you can't figure out what
1.00
00:56:08.960
the fuck's going on because you fucking made an ignorant comment to someone or disrespected them
1.00
00:56:14.200
i will dismantle you bro by supply chain with a smile i'll just go buy all your shit and you can't
1.00
00:56:20.020
buy anymore yeah you know what i mean like that those are relationships like hey man like yeah fuck
1.00
00:56:23.700
with me but that's an example like that's the example of what happens like dude when you with that's
0.96
00:56:28.880
why when you're young and what ed said you're a million percent right bro if i did anything wrong
00:56:34.140
it was that coming up like people ask me what my regret was it said dude i could have been i think
0.81
00:56:40.760
we could have got here faster had i fucking not been as fiery as i was or at least more well i don't
0.93
00:56:47.500
know i actually i mean you can anybody can go back and say that yeah yeah but i i do have a i mean i
0.95
00:56:53.540
think your hunger also drew eyeballs and then once people know you they understand it like you're a
0.97
00:56:59.900
little bit more vicious on the fucking vocal side than you really are in the sense of like
0.97
00:57:03.260
well no dude the reason i'm like you're passionate about this yesterday when i meet someone new
0.99
00:57:08.640
like and i'm texting with them or whatever and they're not used to texting me they read all my
00:57:13.400
texts in like podcast voice they're like bro why are you yelling at me i'm like what are you
00:57:20.080
talking about dude like i'm sitting here chill dude like i tell him i always give it 24 hours you
00:57:26.160
let it digest for a second but i do have i wrote a note here and it's really important because i
00:57:30.160
think you know to ed's analogy it's a phenomenal analogy 110 20 you know what you realize and what
00:57:35.120
i've learned about just developing young men and women through life too is in year one you know you're
00:57:41.380
dealing with a lot of fear and insecurity and so you have to you have to puff your chest and by puffing
00:57:48.040
your chest a lot of times when your ego gets involved or emotional decisions get involved you make a lot
00:57:51.640
bad decisions and because of your insecurities you want to flex or you want to push on them
0.98
00:57:56.520
or you want to say that shit because it makes you feel good but you realize like when you get into
0.97
00:58:00.580
the 10-year room or the 20-year room you're not afraid anymore you know what i mean you're still
0.99
00:58:05.160
you're you're not afraid of those things anymore yep and you're not as insecure as you used to be
00:58:09.640
and that humility you start to realize and look around like okay i can i can learn in this room
00:58:14.760
you know versus in year one you're trying to prove everybody that you're right like i'm better than you
1.00
00:58:18.960
i'm fucking smarter than you i'm fucking i'm gonna beat your ass in year 20 you look around you're
1.00
00:58:23.180
like all right how can i learn that's right and there's an insecurity check down factor when you
1.00
00:58:28.480
eliminate the ego and address your fear the fear insecurity starts to lower down and humility
00:58:33.240
starts to come up and you don't get to the 20-year room without that equation happening it's the
00:58:37.060
dunning-kruger effect it's the same thing it's the same thing as we see with information you know at
0.92
00:58:41.520
one year one year in two years in three years in motherfuckers think they're an expert and then for the
0.99
00:58:45.700
next seven years they start to figure out how dumb they are you're right and then they come back
0.99
00:58:48.780
around at 20 years and they're like oh i think i might i think you know what ed i think i might
00:58:53.940
know something you know right like so what happens too is mark bell by the way i use big words lately
00:58:59.740
when people share with me i've been using this word equanimity lately i'm like where did i get it
0.91
00:59:02.820
was actually mark bell can you spell it e-q-a-m-i-n-i-t maybe oh i'm not a good spell i can't fucking
0.97
00:59:08.800
spell it down i could spell it but probably not i don't know the difference between hour and hour
0.97
00:59:11.720
you know what scared me earlier when you said hour and hour i screw that crap all the time or you
0.94
00:59:17.100
you're and you are i screw that one up and then for years when i would read the word fanatic i kept
0.97
00:59:23.240
calling it fanatic like when i would read out loud so like i'm with you on all this but the
0.99
00:59:27.060
reciprocity like the rest of reciprocity when you said it the other i'm like fuck i'm gonna save this
0.96
00:59:30.900
i'm gonna try to drop it i try to show how evolved i am by dropping in three or four words
0.91
00:59:36.260
that are multiple syllable alec i'm i'm sorry for something like that i didn't even say that
00:59:42.300
right but you know what i'm saying trying to sound smarter than i am but equanimity is basically what
00:59:46.880
you're describing which is that in andy's fire andy's right about his fire the fire is more directed
00:59:51.300
in an energy that grows something now than it was maybe three or four years ago equanimity basically
00:59:56.180
means like peace focus under duress under pressure and as you get into that 10-year room and you get in
01:00:01.820
the 20-year room there's a whole lot more equanimity in that room because we've a lot we've learned how to
01:00:06.180
direct our peace and focus under duress and pressure and that's to your point it's not the
01:00:10.320
same fears as before and we know how to function in them in a really productive way so i'm always
01:00:14.860
like i look at anyone who's an elite performer like the guy or that lady has a high degree of
01:00:19.100
equanimity and it's their ability to perform kind of in a peaceful or at least focused way as the room
01:00:24.700
gets bigger and more pressurized and that's what a phil knight that you're chasing i know phil a little
01:00:29.560
bit he's a neighbor i don't know him really well but i do feel like as that company grew his
01:00:33.740
equanimity level grew and they could execute at a higher and higher level as they went as the
01:00:38.200
pressure notoriety stress problems you get bigger and bigger legal everything's just bigger right
01:00:44.460
and can you find more equanimity as you grow that's the big thing in the 20-year room dude i think i i
01:00:49.920
think that's a key trait of any truly successful leader or entrepreneur is their ability to focus
01:00:57.840
when chaos is happening for everybody else you know what i mean period yeah that's number one
01:01:03.020
to me as you once you get momentum i agree with you yeah it's a it's a it's a powerful thing you
01:01:08.840
know and i i see that in young entrepreneurs as a as a flaw or a mistake they make a lot like when
01:01:15.360
things are bad guys that's when you got to be calm when things are good that's when you got to put the
01:01:19.180
pressure on you and i talk about that a lot in our companies like when things are really really good
0.74
01:01:22.520
maybe we get a little bit more intense and start chewing some ass more than we would when things are
0.66
01:01:25.780
bad you've got to bring more belief and stable and and encouraging it's totally true it's it's
0.81
01:01:29.840
the reverse of what you would think you need to do you know what i wanted to say too while you were
01:01:32.880
saying that about the communication thing is like dude you know when we built you know we've been
01:01:38.460
building rta for three years now and obviously when you found an organization you're going to have
01:01:44.140
conflict you know and one of the things that's taught me this the skill of controlling my focus
01:01:50.420
and and my communication in the equanimity aspect has been when we you and i have had conflict
01:01:56.500
because you know when when we first met each other i would come at you with like how i would come at
01:02:02.900
anybody and it didn't go very well right like we never got anywhere and and even the times whenever
01:02:09.720
i've come at you where i've been fiery and you've stayed calm and respectful that taught me like oh oh
01:02:15.480
fuck dude that's how it's supposed to be and dude it's a greatly improved my life like in all regards
0.83
01:02:19.880
and it's one of the things i never told you this before but it's one of the things i'm most grateful
0.99
01:02:24.660
for out of us being friends is that i learned how to not be a fucking uh force of nature every
0.97
01:02:32.260
fucking time something goes wrong you know what i mean because your force of nature to your to your
0.95
01:02:36.540
sal's point is like that is what makes you great yeah it's being able to direct it that's right when
0.98
01:02:41.180
you need it yeah and the other thing too on your case and i'm not just saying this because this is
01:02:44.720
really incredible to say out loud so and i have noticed that in you i've noticed a lot of things in you
01:02:49.600
the last three years but for me to say this and i mean this when i say it the person that i know
01:02:54.240
in my life that has grown the most of everybody that i know in my life the last three years is you
01:03:00.100
grown i'm talking about in the in everything your communication the way you think um the way you
01:03:05.240
communicate and by the way that was already from an extraordinarily high level that's what makes it
01:03:10.780
you're an unbelievable example to people who think they're pretty far ahead right now and wonder how
01:03:15.380
much they can grow you were already worth millions of dollars you already had incredible notoriety
01:03:20.200
you didn't need to change anything and by the way in the beginning you would say this is just me
01:03:24.940
yeah right you didn't need to change anything yet to get to that nike level yeah to get to that level
01:03:30.260
where you're going to influence hundreds of millions of people not millions of people
01:03:33.920
those growth things needed to take place i have things i need to grow in yeah i have the most
01:03:38.720
admiration for people who grow who there's no evidence that they actually really have to
01:03:42.820
and so everybody that i know rt outside of rt all of my businesses all of my friends you've
01:03:47.260
grown the most from an already elite high level i just want to acknowledge that for you i've never
01:03:52.020
told you that either but that's an actual truth for me i appreciate it man it means a lot yeah it's
01:03:56.220
true you know it's um and you got more to grow and so do i yeah you know that's honestly why i've
01:04:01.280
gotten more quiet than what i have been you know a lot of people we talked about this yesterday
0.99
01:04:06.680
you know i think a lot of people think that i like fell off or some shit it's like no motherfucker
0.99
01:04:11.240
like i shut my mouth and i'm putting i'm putting in the i'm putting in the the paying the dues man
0.99
01:04:16.580
you have reloaded and uh if people really knew what the heck was going on in and all even the
01:04:21.680
downloads of the show yeah the your how really well your social's doing this building here the growth
01:04:27.280
of the company he just said it a minute ago i don't know if everyone caught that 175 new people
01:04:31.720
this year have been hired here like hello that's freaking psycho and you're now looking at more space than
0.67
01:04:37.580
even this yeah we're building a building right next door it's crazy and we gotta expand here first
01:04:41.380
yeah i mean it's it we're very fortunate to be where we are right now and it's been a it's been a
01:04:47.700
and guys you know the reason we do the re look i don't i don't know how to say this i sounded like a
0.79
01:04:55.940
jerk but none of us here have to fucking do this and i'm not saying that so you could say oh thank you
0.91
01:05:02.960
so much for doing it but i hope you realize that there is a genuine difference between someone
0.97
01:05:09.620
who's selling you information and and somebody who's going to coach you who needs to get the
01:05:16.560
income to live their fucking flashy life so then they can sell you more coaching and somebody who
0.91
01:05:22.620
actually runs real companies which all of us do multiple companies which all of us do and are going
0.99
01:05:30.000
through it with you because there it's just not something it's a completely different fucking
0.96
01:05:35.420
thing and um i'll brag there's rt syndicate there's nothing like it in the world no there's i'll just
0.94
01:05:40.600
say it straight up there's nothing like it in the world because you're with the highest level
01:05:43.660
entrepreneurs in the world and performers just in life that are executing along with you and i'll just
01:05:48.600
say this for sure i'll state my life on this the caliber of information that we teach the tactics the
01:05:53.620
strategies the details that we teach there's nothing even remotely close to it in the world that's not
01:05:58.200
disrespectful to anybody else no it's just a different animal if you want to get fluffed up
01:06:02.260
all the time we're probably not that group if you want to really learn how to change your life and or
01:06:07.640
your business i'm not there's no commercial here because it's application only we turn away thousands
01:06:12.100
of people every single year we don't ever market it you and i don't sell anything else there's no
01:06:16.180
other place where we're not going to get in there i'm going to sell you some you know some glue or
01:06:20.260
you know we're not going to sell you books you're in our deal you're with us we mentor you so
01:06:24.280
i hope that everybody understands it's the greatest environment community in the world that's a force
01:06:29.940
for good for both you personally and outside of your world and don't even apply with us if you don't
01:06:35.400
want to be a force for good in the greater world right because that's our higher calling that's why
01:06:39.080
and you and i do it that's why we take the time to do it and we're very very proud of so many of the
0.83
01:06:43.820
people in the group that have just made quantum leaps in their businesses that's the best fucking thing
0.72
01:06:46.980
i was going to say when you when you brought up the uh the thing about wozniak dude okay look guys i don't know
0.96
01:06:52.960
how much you know about steve wozniak i okay first of all smartest fucking dude i've ever been around
0.98
01:06:59.520
by 10 times easily he's a savant it's unbelievable like when we were interviewing him on stage i i felt
0.95
01:07:07.840
literally stupid yeah of course so did i no dj i'm being serious i felt i felt like i should have a
0.85
01:07:14.280
fucking coloring book he's in a different dimension and plane yeah totally different but the one thing
0.98
01:07:18.940
that i could understand that he talked about was and what really hit with me was when he talked
0.99
01:07:26.340
about we asked him what he was most proud of and he said he goes dude when i now he didn't say dude
01:07:32.640
because he you know he talks steve wozniak way first of all he said something about equanimity probably no
01:07:37.220
no no but he can spell it no bro first of all probably the nicest guy i've met too so sweet yeah
01:07:44.220
like the legit dude when i left giving people in our group his personal phone number yeah unbelievable
01:07:49.240
unbelievable unbelievable tell the story about the wi-fi thing though huh wait hold on i'm gonna tell
01:07:55.440
what i love what i loved about this dude because i'm like i'm not a fan of many people you know that
0.84
01:08:01.420
but like dude if you don't fucking work hard and you're not like it's kind of like what goggins
0.88
01:08:05.160
says like i have to respect you to like you and you've got to be fucking grinding you're the same
0.97
01:08:09.720
way dude like you if if you don't respect someone it we can't even have a relationship so i don't know
0.99
01:08:17.800
we must get that from dad or something because we both have it but anyhow long story short he fucking
0.94
01:08:24.120
told the story about apple and he you guys don't know this but wozniak gave up a lot of his wealth oh my
0.94
01:08:31.200
god yeah like gave it away so much yeah and billions yes billions of dollars he's a very
01:08:36.060
good man and um and the most influential man probably that's lived in our lifetime because
01:08:43.260
when you think of the technology he's created and what's come of it i agree most influential human
0.72
01:08:47.460
that's currently living in our day-to-day life is wozniak and he said out of all the cool shit that
0.72
01:08:53.880
he's done out of all the amazing things that he's done in his life the biggest company in the world
0.98
01:08:58.420
the fucking you know apple you know what i'm saying like his his most prideful thing was when
0.97
01:09:06.880
he left when he would leave his headquarters and he said there was a hill up on the side of his
1.00
01:09:11.380
headquarters that he would drive through the neighborhood and it was filled with five million
0.99
01:09:14.260
dollar houses and he said it was all apple employees and he and dude that to me is fuck what
0.99
01:09:20.200
the fuck this is about everything arete what we do at first form what we do it with all of our
0.98
01:09:25.860
companies that we do um you know it's all about creating better and like dude what what is better
0.99
01:09:34.720
than that you know what i'm saying like dude seeing those guys that we we both know like win like to me
01:09:40.760
i don't know to me like it's the greatest reward for doing it is when you see someone take something
01:09:47.780
that someone else probably taught you or that you learned that you experienced through experience
01:09:52.100
it's not like you and i are smarter it's further down the road that's it we're just further down
01:09:55.680
we've had more experience right and i gotta tell you like watching people take those things then
01:10:00.320
execute on them is the most it's it's like it's almost like every one of their sort of like one
01:10:04.660
of my kids almost because i'm so proud of them when they do it frustrated with the ones who don't
01:10:09.140
yeah but the majority that do is is like the most rewarding thing in the world so that's i forgot that
01:10:14.240
he said that you're right that was like it's what stuck with me every i have this business card on my
01:10:18.640
on my uh my little shelf in my office where i keep you know like the cool things people give us
01:10:23.760
and uh every time i see that card i think of that story and i'm like bro that is that is why the
0.87
01:10:28.860
fuck you're here i think about the what he gave up the donation part that's the same thing it's a
0.98
01:10:35.620
service yeah and uh i i don't know man like when i was when i was really struggling in business and
1.00
01:10:42.920
i've told this story a few times you know i i pray every night and i would always pray to god and i
01:10:48.140
would say you know hey dude and that's how that is how i pray you know what i'm saying god's my
01:10:52.340
dude so like so i'm like hey dude uh you know if you give me a little help here i promise i'll do
0.97
01:10:58.060
good with it i'll help other people and and dude fuck i mean you're doing that he delivered so like
0.97
01:11:04.500
what i try to do i i feel it an obligation even though like it is you know i do get frustrated when
0.97
01:11:10.640
people don't execute and when people take the information and don't appreciate what they're
01:11:14.780
actually hearing or taking and i just remember like dude you're you got to do your part now
01:11:19.500
because you got your part so now you got to do your part you know and uh it is frustrating because
01:11:24.520
hey listen we both feel that way just remember this everybody if you're going to be in business
01:11:28.500
you're going to be dealing with humans if you're going to be dealing with humans you're going to
01:11:30.820
be dealing with frustrations that's just the deal and if you're going to decide you want to win
01:11:33.800
listen all of you that are saying i want to win because winning is more fun than fun is fun
01:11:38.980
right if you've decided that just get ready you're going to be controversial
01:11:42.380
right there's going to be controversy around you it's not going to leave you at any point
01:11:47.200
at any level of your success elon musk is one of the most successful dudes on the planet
01:11:51.940
and controversy is constantly surrounding the guy still okay so you're going to be controversial
01:11:57.360
so when you see people hating talking smack when there's setbacks when employees or people around
01:12:02.940
you let you down that's all part of the controversy with doing something great man so just buckle up
01:12:08.020
you're going to be controversial bro yeah it's just going to be there yeah and i don't even know
01:12:11.760
i mean and i'm not i'm not arguing the fact but i'm just transitioning in here i think it's
01:12:15.980
progress it's progression because that same exact equation is what makes us unique at first form and
01:12:21.060
and i for our standpoint first form standpoint can only give information and meet you halfway
01:12:26.400
i got to meet you at 50 and like we tell our transformers the people who are getting ready to
01:12:30.580
go through your journey and it's actually very synergistic here in the way of life there's nothing
01:12:33.720
better than giving somebody the keys of their life back physically because they've actually made the
01:12:38.040
decision to make the change and but we can't i can't get you 75 of the way you got to meet me
01:12:42.280
halfway and i think halfway with anything with any success but the thing about people gonna they're
01:12:48.340
gonna judge you in the transformation side of the world like you're gonna have to make the sacrifice
01:12:52.480
to not go out you're gonna have to make sacrifice meal prep and not ordering mac and cheese at dinner
01:12:56.440
and you're gonna have to make the sacrifice not having the birthday cake those that's all part of the
01:13:00.080
process and you have to learn it those that controversy because your mom might not understand or
01:13:05.100
your husband might not understand or your you know or your people at work might not understand
01:13:08.660
because you can't eat the bonbons at lunch that's part of sacrifice which is part of progression it's
0.98
01:13:13.360
a fucking investment it's an investment in yourself and whether it's personal or business or really even
0.94
01:13:17.960
a relationship you could spin this into a personal relationship it's the exact same equation man you
1.00
01:13:22.320
got to make some sacrifices and understand you're gonna put in more work than you're you're gonna put
01:13:26.080
in more work than you are right now if you expect to get better results like it's a it's a i have to do a
01:13:32.080
little bit more yeah what got you what got you here they're gonna get you there that's correct and
01:13:35.380
that's never gonna change and so you have to say hey listen if i'm here maybe i'm operating at 30
01:13:39.180
i gotta get to 50 which means i gotta do a little bit of extra work what is that extra work and a
01:13:43.340
lot of times it's it's literally just listening you know what i mean and then taking an app and
01:13:47.560
applying i always tell people all the time like i'm not gonna give you any business advice until
01:13:51.160
you read these 10 books when you're done with those 10 books then you know what i do now i
0.64
01:13:55.480
instead of doing that i actually give them the fucking book and i said bring it back when you're done
0.98
01:13:59.720
i'll give you another one yeah so now now they can't like fucking lie to me you know everybody's
0.97
01:14:05.160
getting tom hopkins books today yeah hey tom you're welcome there's an extra hundred thousand copies sold
0.94

0.66
01:14:15.420
got to get get going but um i was thinking as you were saying that you know that's really one of the
0.77
01:14:22.840
reasons that i'm comfortable in arte i was just this random thought but like dude i literally give the
0.99
01:14:28.060

most of them won't that's the bottom line i know that for a fucking fact so i i'm cool with
1.00
01:14:51.740
creating my own competition bro like come get some you know the key really comes down to doing it man
0.55
01:14:57.200
like the information's there like it's it's there it's available even if it's not an arte
0.97
01:15:01.600

saying like it's like i value people's opinions but i value yours a little bit more so it made a lot
01:15:45.180
it made me feel good i just want to say when i tell you i'm proud of you that's not an up and down
01:15:49.820
thing i know just i'm just proud of you like this is just i was really emotional my sister's with me
01:15:54.480
she'll tell you i couldn't stop talking about it i'm just absolutely proud of all of you and
01:15:58.420
particularly you because you know you and i are the closest but sal everybody here is just amazing
01:16:02.760
what y'all are doing and it's just the beginning you can tell that's the other thing too you can
01:16:06.680
tell that this is not like some permanent destination either you feel the vibe here like
01:16:11.160
yeah three or four years from now this is going to look silly it's a rental these people here out
0.99
01:16:15.380
here that we see out the windows right here these are the best motherfuckers on the face of the
1.00
01:16:18.720
planet they they want to win they're hungry and they treat people right and they do the right
0.98
01:16:23.020
thing they're a product of their environment though well they create it you know what i'm
01:16:26.920
saying now it's and by the way we teach you how to do that too yeah we do so anyway guys that's the
01:16:32.960
show you got anything you want to say no i was just going to say i think that you know there's a
01:16:36.240
parting if you're going to do a parting word that's what i was going to ask ed if you if you're listening
01:16:39.940
to the show what's what's the parting advice my parting advice would be what andy said you got to
01:16:43.720
eventually just decide you're going to completely execute and you also have to decide i know this
01:16:47.300
sounds like you've heard this a million times just like literally decide your will to win
01:16:50.340
can't be bought you're not going to be bought no amount of success no amount of failure when you
01:16:54.420
do that when you make a total commitment to something people think that that total commitment
01:16:58.660
means you lack freedom it's the absolute reverse when you make a total commitment to something you're
01:17:04.480
completely free from that point on because all other options are off the table now you have total
01:17:08.800
freedom to execute when you don't make a total commitment to something that's bondage that's when
01:17:13.780
you're tied in knots all the time so it's the reverse of what you would think even in a relationship
01:17:17.800
you make a total commitment to your relationship now you have total freedom it's when you don't do
01:17:22.060
that that you lack freedom so if you want to be free totally commit no it's great advice i think
01:17:28.380
you know for me one of the best lessons that that i've learned i think in success in life is you know
0.97
01:17:34.020
you don't know it all and learning to express humility up front will save you a lot of fucking years
0.91
01:17:39.020
you know and there's a lot of lessons that you can learn by asking some simple questions versus running
0.99
01:17:44.680
your fucking head into the steel wall 500 times because you're you're too proud or you have too
0.98
01:17:48.900
much ego to ask that simple question and so i would say hey man if you're a young business owner and
1.00
01:17:53.280
this is you know a plug for arate or really just digesting information and taking taking and executing
01:17:58.260
is like go ask for some advice and then go execute that advice and it doesn't have to be the perfect
01:18:03.400
game plan but if it answers the the question that you've been struggling with but you need to go
01:18:09.020
fucking apply that information but you got to learn to ask for the help before you can go
0.88
01:18:12.860
execute on the help guys that's the show man um i don't have anything to add to that i appreciate
0.98
01:18:17.940
