00:01:08.240 the fee if you actually genuinely enjoyed the show now today because it's sunday um i actually wanted
00:01:15.920 to talk to you a little bit about what you're going to do this upcoming week okay we all know
00:01:20.680 that what's going on in the world is really messed up okay we all recognize that everybody sees it
00:01:27.080 um and i've been talking a lot about it lately but i haven't been doing u.s service uh in terms of
00:01:35.120 what you could be doing personally to be better which is really what this show is ultimately about
00:01:40.440 at the end you know we're going to talk about current events and i think we've gone very far that
00:01:44.980 direction and uh the personal development side is kind of taking a back seat for now but i don't
00:01:49.880 want to stop talking about it so i came in here today uh this is today is friday in my world and
00:01:56.920 you're going to hear this on sunday uh because i wanted to remind you guys of some things that are
00:02:01.660 very important during times of uncertainty okay right now everybody knows there's all kinds of
00:02:09.020 crazy shit going on right you go to the grocery store you could see it you turn on the tv you hear it 0.72
00:02:14.040 you see it uh everywhere you look people are talking about it it's changed our entire world
00:02:19.160 and back in the beginning when all of this stuff started happening i reminded you guys that these
00:02:26.240 are the times when we start to uh make decisions about where we're going to go in life okay and right
00:02:35.480 now a lot of people are pulling themselves back into their shell a lot of people are going to weather
00:02:41.180 the storm a lot of people are going to do everything they can rightfully so to survive which is what we
00:02:49.220 should all be doing but i want to point something out to you guys that leaves tremendous opportunity
00:02:55.460 open for people who want to get aggressive people who want to pour into their personal development
00:03:01.660 their business development their life progress because here's the thing guys we are in a competition
00:03:07.960 it is just the truth a lot of people like to talk about ideal uh you know ideologies right like
00:03:15.460 oh it's not a competition and you're only competing against yourself and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
00:03:21.040 and like dude that's nice to say and think about but it's just not true okay you go you own a business
00:03:25.800 you're competing against other businesses you go to work you're competing against other people for
00:03:29.540 same jobs uh you go to the grocery store now you're competing over a motherfucking uh jug of milk 0.96
00:03:35.080 okay so competition is part of life and if you look at any part of the way nature works uh it's all
00:03:43.820 based on competition okay the strongest the fittest the smartest the most prepared are the ones that win
00:03:51.020 so i want to point out to you that right now a lot of people are not trying to win a lot of people are
00:03:58.040 trying to pull in all of their offense and and hunker down right for this time and this is no
00:04:04.660 different than any other hard time in history guys when things like this happen when times like
00:04:11.360 these happen it is very easy to get caught up and off track on what it is you're trying to build for
00:04:18.420 your life but what i want to remind you of is that life is going to go on life is going to keep
00:04:24.200 progressing and it is going to keep moving and there are people out there that are still aggressive
00:04:29.280 i'm one of them and there's a lot of other people as well so i want to remind you today that one of
00:04:35.240 the biggest opportunities that you'll ever have in your life is actually right now during this time
00:04:41.240 while everybody else is pumping the brakes okay if you have the opportunity in your business to stand
00:04:47.680 on the gas pedal now is the time to do it more so i want to talk to you about your personal
00:04:55.140 personal development okay a lot of people right now are giving up on their fitness they're giving
00:05:00.020 up on their mental health they're giving up on everything and they're basically using the entire 0.60
00:05:04.060 world situation as a crutch as to why they can't do anything okay you know i went to uh my one of my
00:05:13.000 favorite places i go to this place called billy g's here in st louis at kirkwood now over the last couple
00:05:17.740 years i've only drank i don't know five six seven times the total um i think i've had eight days total
00:05:24.180 off nine days now totally off my program the live hard program during that time uh whether i counted
00:05:31.180 online or not and i take pride in that but when i went to billy g's man um and and if anybody's
00:05:38.740 listening i'm not trying to offend anybody this is just what i observed uh you know i went there i
00:05:44.280 saw a lot of people that i saw pre-pandemic and i haven't seen them really since you know over the
00:05:49.700 last 18 months because i haven't been going out i've been keeping to myself as you guys know
00:05:53.900 focusing on myself trying to keep that uh word that i that promise i made to myself uh back in
00:05:59.720 the beginning if you remember i made a promise to myself that this time was going to be the time that
00:06:04.440 made me and i was going to make sure that i use this time to the maximum ability to get better every
00:06:10.800 single day and that's something i have done and i'm very proud of myself so i haven't been out
00:06:16.160 in the world very much i've been focusing on my own shit now i did go to billy g's okay and uh 0.61
00:06:23.780 we went up there we ate and i saw a lot of people i hadn't seen uh for a long time man and i i i gotta
00:06:31.340 be honest like they look like shit okay most of these people had put on 30 40 50 pounds and i'm not 0.68
00:06:39.760 talking one or two people i'm talking dozens of people that i recognize from being a regular up there
00:06:45.840 uh previously to this to this situation so it made me really think man it made me think like
00:06:53.480 how how if everybody's scared of this pandemic and everybody's worried about their health why is
00:07:00.080 everybody getting fatter why is everybody getting worse why is everybody getting uh to a place that
00:07:05.460 actually makes them more susceptible to this virus not less and two things occurred to me one uh they're
00:07:13.240 not really scared okay otherwise they would be getting in shape we've had 600 something days of
00:07:18.560 this going on if you were really terrified about this taking your life you would have done something
00:07:22.520 about it that's just the truth but secondly it showed me in real life how many people are 100
00:07:32.520 percent bailing out on anything that's actually good for them they seem to think that because the world is
00:07:40.100 in chaos that time has somehow stopped time has not stopped there are still plenty of people out there
00:07:47.540 who are hungry who are aggressive who are getting better day by day by day okay and you need to be
00:07:55.080 one of them all right the way this world is going to get better and the way that our country is going to
00:08:01.020 be better is by us being better that's just the only way it is it starts from the ground up
00:08:05.880 so while you may be vocalizing your opinions and while you may be uh actively speaking out while
00:08:15.140 you may be going to these board meetings and while you may be uh participating in democracy like you
00:08:20.740 all should it's important to remember that you are only as good as the example that you set okay
00:08:27.440 what example are you setting for your family what example are you setting for your friends what example
00:08:33.800 are you setting for your peers at work what example are you setting as a citizen of this country and be
00:08:41.140 honest with yourself because if you're not taking care of yourself guys you're leaving a lot on the table
00:08:45.760 and you're setting a poor example okay so today's sunday and i'd like you to consider using the rest of the
00:08:52.800 year to get better okay what does that mean that means being conscious of what you put into your brain
00:09:00.940 okay are you reading or are you consuming the negative news of the day every single day are you
00:09:07.320 putting positive thoughts into your brain are you putting negative thoughts into your brain what are
00:09:11.660 you putting in your body are you putting helpful food and nutrients in your body or are you just
00:09:17.100 trashing your body are you drinking four or five nights a week or are you drinking a gallon of water
00:09:23.380 every day okay there's all kinds of things that you need to consider but the truth of the matter is
00:09:29.560 is that when most people stop that's an opportunity for you to jump ahead all right and that's where we are
00:09:36.880 okay when the when the real estate uh market crashed and we had the economy crash in the late 2000s
00:09:43.420 um that was a time where i i really that's what we made our business everybody else stopped everybody
00:09:51.240 else stopped moving forward everybody kind of pulled in and played defense and we went hard as
00:09:56.200 fuck on offense and we were able to make up four or five years of progress every single year for our 0.74
00:10:02.260 business okay and we ended up growing 100 every single year and by the way we're still doing things
00:10:08.560 like that even in this economy and the reason we're able to do it is because everybody else is quitting
00:10:13.220 everybody else is stopping we're staying aggressive so think about that think about that in terms of
00:10:19.420 your job think about that in terms of your career think about that in terms of your company and
00:10:23.940 think about it mostly in terms of your body because guys if we are not taking care of our own self
00:10:31.080 our own body our own mind nurturing it testing it making sure that it gets stronger and when will we
00:10:40.280 have a better opportunity to test ourselves than during one of the hardest times in my lifetime for sure
00:10:46.500 and probably history of this country that's the ultimate test can you stay on track during this
00:10:52.480 time with all these distractions can you instead of regressing can you get better can you progress can
00:10:59.720 you improve while everybody else is getting worse all right because that's the key that's the thing
00:11:07.220 that's going to set you up because this stuff will end okay these things will end and if you want to
00:11:13.940 be in the best place possible right now is the time that you should be moving forward as hard as you
00:11:18.780 can now i understand that there's things in business that are challenging right now i understand there are
00:11:25.940 things in in the economy that are challenging right now i understand all of these things but that still
00:11:32.480 doesn't limit your ability to really drink water it doesn't limit your ability to eat clean it doesn't
00:11:38.580 limit your ability to move it doesn't limit your ability to read positive things it doesn't limit
00:11:44.660 your ability to get better that's the point and we have gotten really good in this country right now
00:11:50.180 at selling ourselves that we're waiting for this time to pass before we get back to kicking ass and 0.87
00:11:56.520 i'm going to tell you right now if everybody in america gets in that mindset where uh they're just
00:12:02.200 going to sit on their hands and kind of wait for this to pass it'll never pass it'll never get over
00:12:07.000 with because our country is based upon go-getters it's based upon people who go out and create
00:12:13.500 things seemingly for nothing these are resilient people these are gritty people these are people
00:12:19.300 with tremendous amounts of fortitude okay these are people who can endure hard times that's the
00:12:25.240 essence of america okay so if you're feeling like you think america needs to get better right now what
00:12:31.380 you need to be focused on is you getting better because if every individual gets better and you're
00:12:36.940 setting an example for the individuals around you and they get better that's how we get this
00:12:41.620 motherfucker moving on the right track all right so it's sunday today tomorrow's monday i would listen
00:12:48.880 to this i would really think about it and i would think about what can you do to get better and if you
00:12:53.260 haven't talked about or thought about doing live hard or 75 hard start now don't wait till the end of
00:12:59.820 the fucking year man okay we need to invest in our mental fortitude now we need to get tougher now 0.96
00:13:06.380 we need to get stronger now we need to get physically harder now okay these things are important now we
00:13:12.900 don't have time to wait and the longer you wait the longer you put it off the worse off you're going
00:13:18.940 to get and you know that and i know that so let's stop with the bitching let's stop with the complaining 1.00
00:13:25.060 let's stop with the screaming and let's start working on being a better example let's start
00:13:31.840 working on building this from the ground up let's start working on building something that every
00:13:36.700 single motherfucker that you know can look at and say damn dude that's what i want that's what i want 1.00
00:13:42.100 to be like because you can talk about this shit all you want but unless you're truly about it it really 0.66
00:13:47.520 doesn't make any difference okay so make this day make this week the time if you've been fucking off 0.97
00:13:54.720 this whole time make this the time where you say dude look i'm still going to get better during this
00:14:00.000 time i'm still going to be able to look back during this time say that was the time i got better that
00:14:03.900 was the time that made me that was the time i got ahead because it's not too late this shit's not 0.77
00:14:08.380 stopping anytime soon and so if you're waiting for it to stop for you to get going you're just going to
