What is up guys, it's Andy Priscilla and this is the show for the realists, say goodbye
00:00:20.820
to the lies, the fakes, and delusions of modern society and welcome to motherfucking reality.
00:00:25.740
Guys, today we have Q and AF. You give me the Qs and I give you the AFs. Now, how do they submit the Qs?
00:00:35.160
You can submit the Qs, email them in to askandy at eddyfriscilla.com. There you go.
00:00:40.160
All right. Now we don't want ads on the show. If you're new to the show, which our show is growing
00:00:44.840
very quickly, we have a fee. The fee is very simple. It's not money. It's not time. It's not hard labor.
00:00:51.860
It's very simple. Tell people about us. We're trying to grow this messaging. We're trying to
00:00:57.720
grow this show. We believe we're providing value. And if you agree, just pay the fee.
00:01:09.680
Joe, when are we going to make a rap album, bro?
00:01:15.280
Let's get it, bro. I got a multi-platinum record-producing audio producer, Rector here.
00:01:30.940
No, it can't be no mayonnaise. You wouldn't give no mayonnaise off, so it'd be fine.
00:01:41.860
Yeah. So I got three hard questions on 75 hard.
00:02:16.000
What's that restaurant with all the shit on the walls?
00:02:29.380
I work with a bunch of people that don't know shit about movies.
00:02:53.940
Can you just explain why that is so fucking important for people?
00:03:00.360
It's super simple because once you compromise once, the second compromise is that much easier.
00:03:11.500
Then you don't know what the fuck's going on, right?
00:03:13.660
And what you just decided to do means nothing anymore.
00:03:16.280
The whole problem with people in general is that they are so conditioned to listen to their own bitch voice about the corners they should cut that they aren't even aware that they're cutting them.
00:03:29.060
And then before they know it, they've not, you know, it's 45 minutes of cardio, then it's 40 minutes.
00:03:42.580
So, when you're pursuing what it is that you're trying to pursue, every single compromise is literally exponentially more damaging than what it is in the moment for that reason.
00:03:57.040
Because what it's doing is conditioning your behavior.
00:03:59.460
It's conditioning you to look for the quicker, faster, more simple, more convenient solution, which, if you truly think about, is the reason that you are dissatisfied in whatever areas that you're dissatisfied with, okay?
00:04:14.580
If you're dissatisfied with your money, it's because you compromise there.
00:04:17.760
If you're dissatisfied with your body, it's because you compromise there.
00:04:21.220
If you're dissatisfied with your relationship, it's because you compromise there.
00:04:24.900
So, compromising really is the slippery slope that we all think and talk about when it comes to, oh, I got off track, right?
00:04:33.920
So, how do we overcompensate for that or how do we fix that in ourselves?
00:04:46.120
Because when you become someone who is unwilling to compromise on their goals, whatever they may be, how can anything in life or any circumstance ever stop you?
00:05:02.980
We went outside yesterday and did it in a foot of snow, bro.
00:05:14.120
So, DJ and I did cardio yesterday in a foot of fucking snow.
00:05:17.140
It took us twice as long as it would normally take, but we did it, all right?
00:05:21.800
Sometimes when you do the extremely hard shit, it reminds you that you have to do extremely hard shit to get focused on your goals, all right?
00:05:31.020
But compromising, man, whether it be in any area of life, is literally the first step to you becoming like everybody else, all right?
00:05:42.640
So, when you do it once, the second time it's easier, the second time it's easier, the second time it's easier.
00:05:47.440
Think of something that, you know, you've compromised on.
00:05:56.420
Like that first little bite of, you know, you walk, oh, I'm on a diet at a holiday party.
00:06:09.040
You get that one fucking bite of whatever, and then all of a sudden, 10 minutes later, you're back.
00:06:22.020
And then 10 minutes later, you're like, fuck it.
00:06:33.840
So for us to defeat that part of our nature as humans, we have to be conscious about not compromising ever.
00:06:41.540
And when you not compromise ever for a long enough period of time, 75 days, it becomes part of who you are, all right?
00:06:49.280
And when non-compromising becomes part of who you are when it comes to your personal standards, you are literally fucking unstoppable in anything that you decide to pursue.
00:07:07.640
I killed 75 hard back in November, and I'm now on my second round of it.
00:07:14.540
It literally untapped a lot in me, and I'm pissed that I didn't do it sooner.
00:07:18.760
I'm now trying to find ways to make it, quote-unquote, harder, okay?
00:07:26.500
Do you have any other tips on making it, quote-unquote, harder?
00:07:31.620
Like, if you are doing it properly with the proper intent, you should be looking for ways to challenge yourself throughout the program.
00:07:40.480
Now, I'm not talking about doing extreme shit that's going to get you hurt or going to get you sick or going to get you fucked up.
00:07:46.140
I'm just talking about raising your intensity level.
00:07:50.680
Like, if you're, you know, a lot of people, they say, oh, enjoy your walk.
00:07:58.840
When DJ and I are doing cardio outside, like, you see us walking.
00:08:02.900
That's because you can't see us jog or you can't see us make things harder.
00:08:07.140
So, you have to understand, there's all kinds of ways to test yourself.
00:08:12.220
Sometimes it's as little as, like, what we did yesterday, bro.
00:08:17.600
We were about 15 minutes in and we were only, like, fucking five minutes of where we would have normally been.
00:08:43.240
But the point is, is that when you challenge yourself in that way, you remind yourself of what you're truly capable of.
00:08:51.020
Testing yourself can be as simple as maybe you run the poles.
00:08:56.440
Like, a thing that I do when I'm alone is, like, I'll run to a spot.
00:09:00.540
And I say, okay, I'm going to run to that spot.
00:09:03.060
And then when I start walking, I pick a spot, right?
00:09:05.420
Or I go, like, around my house where I'll go up and down this fucking giant-ass motherfucking hill.
00:09:14.940
The key to getting the most out of this program is to recognize when what you're doing isn't really testing and you're sort of cruising.
00:09:23.800
When you start to feel like you're cruising and this is easy, that's an indicator of where you want to bring up the intensity, okay?
00:09:32.960
So, the more intensity that you add in, the more difficult that you make it on yourself.
00:09:39.320
And by the way, there's a mental aspect to this too.
00:09:41.440
Because what you're actually doing is you're training yourself in your mind to challenge yourself when a challenge appears.
00:09:50.040
And by the way, when a challenge appears is almost always the biggest opportunity because nobody wants to address the challenges.
00:09:58.600
So, you're conditioning yourself to recognize challenging and difficult opportunities in the real world and saying, you know what?
00:10:08.140
By the way, that's where part of my Fix America comes from.
00:10:11.660
It's the biggest fucking challenge I could possibly comprehend.
00:10:14.420
So, I'm passionate about it because I've conditioned myself to look for the biggest fucking problems there are and work to solve them.
00:10:25.080
It's going to affect your importance to your existence.
00:10:33.720
So, it all starts with just learning and recognizing when you're coasting and when to up the intensity.
00:10:44.540
Andy, if you had to sum up all the benefits of something, $75,000, right?
00:10:50.020
What would be the number one takeaway that you want people to get from $75,000?
00:10:54.860
Dude, to have complete and total confidence in self.
00:10:58.880
The biggest thing the world lacks is fucking confidence.
00:11:07.380
Everybody's told to be satisfied with a normal life.
00:11:10.160
And hence, the reason that the entire world is run by a very small select few people and everybody else kind of takes what they can get.
00:11:17.820
So, you have to understand that having total confidence in yourself is basically you being able to look in the mirror and say,
00:11:30.960
And then, knowing it's you, I'm not saying be cocky.
00:11:34.560
I'm saying knowing that no one can fuck with you.
00:11:37.320
Bro, there ain't a motherfucker on this planet that can fuck with me.
00:11:42.140
And you may think you can, but I don't think you can.
00:11:49.900
I don't go through life with wondering if I'm good enough.
00:11:52.960
Now, occasionally, those thoughts will creep in, right?
00:11:55.840
But then, I do something hard like we did yesterday and I'm like, no, actually, I am that.
00:12:03.420
And, bro, that's a huge deal because that unlocks power.
00:12:08.500
It's also inspiring to the people around you because it's so rare.
00:12:12.000
A lot of people think they're confident, but they aren't really.
00:12:17.040
Most people are suffering in silence and putting out a confident image.
00:12:21.360
They're not actually truly believers of their own ability, okay?
00:12:25.620
So, when you can take control over things that you normally wouldn't be able to control
00:12:32.220
or haven't been able to control in your entire life, a.k.a. exercise, a.k.a. food, a.k.a. alcohol,
00:12:38.340
a.k.a. putting in quality shit into your brain.
00:12:40.880
All these things that we talk about that the program includes, when you become more powerful
00:12:52.700
I can remember being someone who could not go more than three days on a diet.
00:12:56.840
I couldn't go out to eat because I would have no, I couldn't even have the discipline to order
00:13:01.320
off the fucking menu anywhere I went something healthy.
00:13:03.720
I'd look at the other shit and I'd be like, I got to have it.
00:13:13.700
And then later I'd be like, what the fuck did I do that for?
00:13:21.320
And being powerful comes from keeping the commitments that you make to yourself to a
00:13:26.480
point long enough to where you know there's no fucking doubt in that power.
00:13:33.020
You can't, this is, that's why I say it's not a fucking challenge.
00:13:38.460
This is a fucking program to mentally calibrate yourself to be extremely powerful.
00:13:48.760
It'll be the best shape you've ever been in because you're not compromising and you're
00:13:53.580
But if you go at this shit with the right intent, you challenge yourself, you obey the
00:13:59.500
When you finish this shit, you will be the most powerful version of yourself that's ever
00:14:05.420
Think of what you could do if you were complete control of your environment at all times.
00:14:10.320
Now we can't always be in control, aka the weather might be shitty and the weather could
00:14:17.560
The weather could represent a bank not financing you or a spouse leaving you or a business failing,
00:14:26.300
The weather's bad, but guess what tomorrow brings?
00:14:31.540
We have to learn to operate inside of all these bad weather situations where the circumstances
00:14:36.540
are not ideal so that we can move forward regardless of what's happening in the world.
00:14:44.740
And that's something that most people do not have.
00:14:47.560
Most people do not have what I'm talking about.
00:14:51.300
They look at people like me or they look at people that have these things and they think
00:14:55.460
I could never have that because he was probably born with that or he has that in his heart
00:15:00.040
No, these are fucking skills that you have to make investments in for them to develop.
00:15:05.360
It's no different than learning how to play a guitar.
00:15:07.080
It's no different than learning a fucking how to build a house.
00:15:12.180
If you put the time and effort to develop these skills, these skills will materialize and make
00:15:18.160
So that's what I want people to understand about the program.
00:15:20.700
It's not like so many people just totally fucking goes over their head what they're
00:15:29.360
If you're looking to lose weight and that's all you give a fuck about, there's easier
00:15:35.480
But none of those ways will develop the entire fucking, will fix the entire fucking cause
00:15:41.820
of the problem that you were overweight with in the first place, which is that you have
00:15:55.080
And you think that you just got the shitty end of the stick because of the way you were
00:16:00.300
They're just skills that no one teaches you how to develop.
00:16:04.000
And by the way, conspiracy theorist time, which ain't really conspiracy theorist, AKA the
00:16:09.820
They don't want you to know that these are skills.
00:16:12.460
They don't want you to develop these things I'm talking about.
00:16:15.500
Why do you think every motherfucking media piece on 75 hard is negative?
00:16:20.420
Because they do not want you knowing this because once you know this, you become an independent,
00:16:25.260
powerful being, which is impossible to fucking control.
00:16:37.440
And guys, if you want to hear more about the 75 hard program, by the way, it's free.
00:16:42.440
If I was anybody else on this fucking planet, I'd be charging and fucking doing all this.
00:16:51.920
It explains 75 hard and the live hard program for free.
00:16:58.080
If you want to read about it and go to 75 hard.com.
00:17:00.680
If you want to get in-depth knowledge about it, like down to the details, which is the
00:17:11.980
It's not always in stock because we sell the fuck out of it.
