00:02:08.380
thing i sent you last night holy fuck holy shit holy fuck i did not know i don't even know if we
00:02:15.060

00:02:21.020
to be fucking caucasian all right and and and like can we can we as white people get a little
00:02:27.760
fucking a little bit cooler yeah yeah a little bit yeah fucking a little bit cooler bro it was bad
00:02:33.240
okay it was bad what was it described to the people it was apparently what it was that you saw
00:02:38.820
it would be the equivalent of miley cyrus doing a hip uh rap vax pro vaccine video these motherfuckers
00:02:47.380
okay first of all i found imagine that yeah i found out that that was new zealand not australia
00:02:51.840
okay because i sent it to all my australian friends like what the fuck is that no i said hey
00:02:55.520
see motherfucker you motherfuckers are nerdier than us and they got pissed off and they all sat back
00:03:00.480
they're like that's new zealand all right so let's talk about you new zealand people yeah bro
00:03:05.180
what the fuck you guys doing they're making these they get these raps they made a rap song about
00:03:10.920
getting i don't even know i don't think we can call it rap bro like that was bad what was it i don't
00:03:15.560
know just a jar of fucking mayonnaise yeah so we got three questions for you man so let's go ahead and
00:03:20.820
knock this out um so the first question it's actually perfect because you mentioned this uh you
00:03:26.040
mentioned this a hundredth of times i'm sure um but you just recently missed mentioned this in the
00:03:30.360
uh in the intro um value exchange so how how do you personally how do you determine someone's
00:03:39.980
value um and then i guess the flip side of that is you know how definitely by their skin color
00:03:44.500
well i mean that's what i was assuming according to the mass media yeah that's what i was assuming
00:03:48.900
yeah totally yeah no but next question yeah right right but seriously how do you determine somebody's
00:03:55.640
value and and on the flip side of that how does somebody really create value you know skills and
00:04:01.260
well i would i should say traits aside how do they create value well dude the easiest way to create
00:04:06.480
value is to look for the shit nobody's willing to do and fucking do it real good that that's the
00:04:11.160
easiest way to fucking become extremely valuable extremely fast um the other way is to look for
00:04:19.180
problems that need to be solved you know a lot the value is created from the problems that need to be
00:04:25.200
solved that nobody's willing to acknowledge right that's where the most value is the that the shit
00:04:30.920
that nobody wants to do nobody wants to acknowledge people want to look past um they want to pretend like
00:04:37.160
there's bigger problems or this or that and and dude like there's a shit ton of value in solving
00:04:41.940
problems bro every great product that's ever been developed solved a problem um every great company
00:04:48.480
that's ever existed uh solved a problem you know what i mean some of them fucking create the problem
00:04:54.360
then solve the problem as we're finding out yeah you know uh so it's about fucking doing the shit that
00:05:00.600
no one's willing to do man and the harder the path uh usually the more value and it's very simple this
00:05:05.440
is something that we inherently know as humans uh but spend our whole lives trying to avoid because we
00:05:11.260
don't want things to be difficult you know and uh when you embrace the difficulties and embrace the idea that
00:05:18.480
like hey dude i could become pretty value valuable in the marketplace or valuable inside of an
00:05:24.060
organization by looking for issues that that need to be solved uh anticipating but anticipating those
00:05:31.300
and solving them before they're even issues that's the ultimate value like if you become someone who can
00:05:35.920
anticipate problems and solve them before they become problems and then show that how you did that
00:05:40.300
and that's value yeah you know but people don't like to do that people like to show up
00:05:46.120
they like to come in with their fucking starbucks they like to eat a couple fucking donuts they like
00:05:50.560
to talk about the fucking kardashians they like to go home and sit on their fat fucking ass yeah
00:05:54.900
and that's the reality of humans and then they like to cry on instagram about why she didn't go in
00:05:59.520
their way so i don't have any sympathy for y'all can fuck off with your bullshit for real dude like
00:06:06.260
this political correct fucking society that that pretends like they don't know inherent things like
00:06:11.940
when you solve a problem you get rewarded uh or when you work hard you get rewarded like i'm not
00:06:17.460
like this is just fucking crazy yeah it's very simple bro if an idiot like me can figure it out
00:06:23.080
so can you it's just don't you know most people are spending their whole lives trying to avoid it
00:06:31.280
can you explain this is actually a question i've had for for a while um but i know your answer is
00:06:38.680
can you explain the difference between entrepreneur and intrapreneur can you just give us a quick
00:06:45.040
little rundown on that yeah i mean look dude entrepreneurs uh entrepreneurs are a uh a special
00:06:52.140
breed man these are people that you like in the meme they'll jump off a cliff and build a motherfucking
00:06:57.660
parachute on the way the fuck down you know and i think people who are entrepreneurs are are uh bill
00:07:05.640
they're able to um they're able to move outside of the limits and constraints of what typical society
00:07:15.140
uh works they free thinkers they're people who are good critical thinkers uh they're people who are
00:07:20.380
comfortable with uncertainty um and i think the uncertainty thing is the biggest part the biggest
00:07:25.340
difference between a great entrepreneur and a great entrepreneur is that the great entrepreneur
00:07:30.240
is totally comfortable being uncertain about what the fuck is going on whereas the great
00:07:34.280
entrepreneur uh values that security a little bit more and doesn't really uh want to go have their
00:07:41.880
nuts on the line uh so to speak yeah you see what i'm saying yeah um the the principles of succeeding
00:07:47.660
at both are are very similar i mean they're the same you know it's just what i said in the last answer
00:07:52.000
it's it's finding uh you know if you're if you're the ceo um or the main person in your business
00:07:58.280
it's about identifying the problems and solving the problems as a company uh if if you're an
00:08:04.420
entrepreneur it's about solving the problems within the company right and i you know what i mean so
00:08:09.540
it's very similar all the success principles are very parallel i just i think in my opinion from my
00:08:16.380
experience because it doesn't always equate like a lot of good entrepreneurs decide they're going to go
00:08:21.880
try to be entrepreneurs and they fucking crumble dude and there is a vast and this is the problem with
00:08:27.960
the internet right now the internet pretends as if being an entrepreneur is something that every
00:08:34.560
single fucking human is built for and it's just not true yeah most people will be fucking miserable
00:08:40.080
as an entrepreneur you don't know where your next fucking dollar is coming from you don't know
00:08:44.500
somebody could walk in the door today and tell you something and do something that fucks up your whole
00:08:48.840
life and that never changes never fucking changes and most people can't deal with that so um
00:08:55.560
and it's a big disparity there i think it's not something that converts easily for people that
00:09:01.440
just don't have the ability to handle that kind of pressure so and also as an entrepreneur um if your
00:09:07.600
company gets bigger and bigger bigger you're you're fucking responsible for hundreds if not thousands of
00:09:13.440
people sometimes and bro that's a different kind of pressure that a lot of people don't really even
00:09:18.760
think about you know like they don't think about uh are are their employees able to pay their bills
00:09:24.800
or are they don't get that shit so a lot and and to be fair bro uh i'll be honest the intrapreneur life
00:09:32.820
if you're great is is is way better it just is um it's not as stressful you can make a fuck ton of money
00:09:41.780
you don't have to take a lot of shit home with you mentally um and you could turn it off when
00:09:47.660
you're an entrepreneur you can't never turns off so if you're good so i mean like you know uh
00:09:55.580
i think the biggest thing is is how how how comfortable someone is uh dealing with the unknown
00:10:04.240
you know will dictate how successful they convert over from intrapreneur to entrepreneur but i like i said
00:10:11.920
i don't think that a lot of people should i think you know statistically uh seven percent of humans
00:10:17.800
are entrepreneurs in america uh one percent are what's considered successful so you know
00:10:24.660
there's a lot of great companies out there doing a lot of cool shit you know i i don't know man like
00:10:31.040
it's you got to figure it out for yourself i can't answer it but from my experience where i've seen
00:10:35.800
people jump from intrapreneur to entrepreneur um that's what kills them is their inability to deal with
00:10:41.260
the uncertainty yeah awesome and to grind it out for a fucking you know a lot of people forget too
00:10:47.740
and this is another point to mention that like when you're with established company uh usually people
00:10:54.360
are coming to you as customers right and so a lot of people inside of an established company
00:10:58.960
will believe that they could just go do that on their own but they haven't seen let's get the same
00:11:06.520
yeah yeah but they haven't seen the part where you know like 15 years ago when uh or let's say
00:11:13.000
what was it 2009 we made our first supplement here you know and and nobody would buy it because
00:11:19.000
we made it right because nobody thought that we were technical enough to make it they would say
00:11:24.180
shit like oh well you know well you make that shit in your bathtub you know so nobody knows what
00:11:29.860
it's like to build from there um when nobody wants you to this opposite side where everybody wants you
00:11:38.060
right yeah and when people get in that good climate over there they end up fucking bolting out and
00:11:43.020
realizing that like outside dude it's pretty fucking cold yeah it's a hard road dude it takes a long
00:11:47.760
time and sometimes that's what people need to do to respect the process and respect what's there yeah
00:11:52.520
because like a lot of people take that shit for granted you know i see i've been seeing this shit for a
00:11:56.620
number of years uh good employee great employees for a company decide they're going to go do this
00:12:02.600
thing whatever the thing is they're going to go do it on their own they're very very very rarely or
00:12:07.900
very rarely successful very rarely and you know it always starts the same a big this big ordeal on
00:12:15.560
social media oh i'll fucking start my own thing blah blah blah and they got they got their friends
00:12:19.600
for a change yeah they got their friends and their family saying yeah good for you good for you good for
00:12:23.700
you check back on that motherfucker in a year yeah shit six months it's a different story
00:12:28.460
okay so it's really fucking hard to get traction yeah and unless you're built to walk that path that
00:12:37.720
hasn't been cut yet being an entrepreneur is a great option yeah you know and being a really really
00:12:43.260
fucking good one most successful 99 of the successful people on the planet are entrepreneurs not
00:12:49.840
entrepreneurs that's real think about that that's fucking real all right our third and final question
00:12:57.540
um over over the last 23 years in business andy and i've actually i've heard you say this a few
00:13:05.480
times right um you've said that there was moments at various times that you wanted to quit why didn't
00:13:12.040
what the fuck else am i gonna do look dude i don't have any other options i don't have a college
00:13:20.500
fucking degree i don't have i can't i well i mean now i could like now i could go get a job as a ceo or
00:13:27.420
whatever somewhere but like um for the longest time you know i have fucking no options so uh what am i
00:13:37.300
gonna do i'm gonna quit and go fucking dig ditches you see i'm saying that's what i talk about with
00:13:42.480
zero option mentality people don't get it the hardest fucking thing that you need to do is to
00:13:47.220
convince yourself that you do not have options like when you convince yourself thoroughly like you
00:13:52.280
literally do not have a fucking option but to go do this uh you'll be surprised at how much harder
00:13:57.300
you'll go at that thing and how much more success it'll bring to you right when you know that you
00:14:02.580
the alternative of you uh you know your life is to go dig fucking holes for a living uh it'll force
00:14:11.840
you to do some shit that you don't want to do especially when you dug some holes before you
00:14:15.860
know what it's like you see what i'm saying yeah so um for for for the beginning entrepreneur this is
00:14:23.740
this is an easy thing right because you the first three or four or five years like i really couldn't
00:14:30.040
quit because i didn't have anything to go to uh but as you get older and as you get more mature and
00:14:37.460
more successful especially uh this is actually what kills a lot of entrepreneurs and successful
00:14:42.320
people because we all see these people right who like make some shit and they start going and they
00:14:48.540
get some money they get a house they get some cars they fucking they get there then you know you check
00:14:53.500
back in a year and they got a story about how they had to reevaluate readjust right they got some
00:14:58.660
bullshit no motherfucker you lost your shit right okay and the reason you lost your shit is because
00:15:05.080
you walked around and thought you fucking won and you didn't fucking win so how do you keep out of
00:15:10.820
that mentality of that you won when you actually haven't even really fucking started well there's
00:15:16.600
a couple things one you got to cultivate that idea that you don't have any other options but to
00:15:21.640
succeed okay there's no the only other option for me at this point like dude i still believe that
00:15:26.640
like you heard me start to say it yeah like i started to say it what else am i gonna do what
00:15:31.140
am i gonna go dig holes right that's so ingrained in me that for me it's still true you see what i
00:15:37.120
mean even though it's not true right fuck dude i could go get fucking eight figures a year to run a
00:15:42.420
bunch of companies yeah you know yeah but i like this company and i think it's gonna beat all those
00:15:47.800
companies so i stay here yeah but my point is is that the first thing you got to do is convince
00:15:52.980
yourself uh and remind yourself that like dude you you don't have any other options but to go
00:15:58.580
like what's your option bro half-ass your whole fucking life this is true for all of you yeah
00:16:03.020
what are you gonna half-ass your whole fucking life be a fat piece of shit lazy contribute nothing
00:16:07.060
be unhappy with your body and your fucking image and who the fuck you are your whole life and then die
00:16:12.220
yeah that's not even a life it's not even a fucking life and p and that's the life if you want an
00:16:19.340
idea of what the media is about that's the life they put on you remember what i talked about last
00:16:23.900
what was that last show was that cti where i talked about how they want everybody to be average and shit
00:16:28.260
yeah motherfucker that's the proof right there you already know that that's true yeah you already know
00:16:35.440
that's not the life you want to live but you let these motherfuckers push that shit on you with
00:16:39.640
the marketing the message all this shit in society all these values they push come through hollywood
00:16:45.140
media the fucking social media big blue check accounts and you're sitting here thinking this
00:16:50.040
is a conspiracy theory fuck dude you are not meant to do that for your entire life so it's important
00:16:56.540
that you remember that's your other option like that sounds like shit to me now some of you might
00:17:01.820
probably not on this show but some people might be okay with that we're not okay with that here
00:17:06.580
all right the other thing you remind yourself and and to do is like you know i post this thing on my
00:17:13.220
story uh talking about how the difference between me and everybody else is if everybody else was me
00:17:19.060
they'd be out rolling fucking yachts and dude i could do that shit litter and you know this yeah i
00:17:24.820
could do this shit every fucking day bro i could be on a yacht every day balling bigger than any
00:17:30.260
any of the people you see online not even fucking close but what do you see you see me in here
00:17:37.480
working my ass off you see me in here sweating you see sweat stains my motherfucking hat
00:17:43.220
okay you know why because i know i ain't shit i don't believe the headlines about myself i don't
00:17:50.940
believe like what other people see in me i know i'm a fucking ant in the game and my competitors
00:17:56.100
they're not other supplement companies or other apparel companies or or fucking uh or fucking you
00:18:02.420
know industry that no no dude my competitor is my potential my competitor is what the fuck i could
00:18:09.120
be and i know for damn well that i could be easily as good as a phil knight or a fucking uh any of
00:18:16.160
these motherfuckers yeah so i'm gonna give a hell to get there you know what i'm saying and so like
00:18:21.040
dude while while other people think that they like if you took a regular person and served them in my
00:18:26.000
life they'd be like oh dude fuck i'm king of the world motherfucker no that's the difference i know
00:18:31.540
i'm not shit that's why i show up every motherfucking day and give it everything i fucking have
00:18:35.140
and that has to do with the goals i set for myself okay when i look at competitors i don't look at
00:18:41.260
fucking uh other companies that are similar sizes as me i look at fucking iconic brands that have that
00:18:48.340
have been around for 40 50 60 70 100 years i look at nikes i look at fucking um you know coca-cola i look
00:18:57.620
fucking pepsi i look at fucking mcdonald's i look at walmart okay i ain't shit and i'm very aware of it
00:19:05.960
the pro the reason you see these fuckers around flossing around town in their fucking leased car
00:19:11.880
is because they are comparing themselves to the other motherfuckers that are doing that
00:19:16.600
i don't compare myself to those people i compare myself to these people who have built something
00:19:22.400
iconic over a fucking lifetime and guess what that keeps me going that keeps me from realizing
00:19:29.500
uh you know that that i'm i built a pretty good life and understanding that i got to keep moving
00:19:35.500
not just for me but for everybody else here and ever all of our customers and everybody that's
00:19:40.660
involved in everything i do like i want to take it as far as i can so that we can get the most benefit
00:19:45.320
for that growth and dude uh you know people don't get that you know they get a little coin
00:19:52.400
they get a little flash and they fucking run wild and they lose their shit you know so that's why i
00:19:56.960
don't quit because i know i ain't shit and i got a long way to go and i i remind myself of that every
00:20:01.620
fucking day oh man yeah fuck guys man fuck well that's fucking three man i mean bro look that's real
00:20:11.820
shit yeah you know like if you want to be fucking if you want to be a legend you better compare
