What is up guys, it's Andy Priscilla and this is the show for the realest say goodbye to
00:00:20.700
the lies, the fakeness and delusions of modern society and welcome to motherfucking reality
00:00:25.340
guys. Today we have Q and AF. This is your first time listening. This is where you submit the
00:00:31.980
questions and I answer them and you could submit those to email those questions in to
00:00:38.240
askandydandyfriscilla.com. Okay. And it can be about anything, personal development, how to win,
00:00:42.740
how to kick ass, how to do really anything when it comes to personal development slash
00:00:47.860
entrepreneurship. Other times when you tune into the show, we have different shows within the show.
00:00:53.360
Um, sometimes we have CTI that is cruise the internet. That's where we put up topics on the
00:00:59.000
screen and we talk shit about them. And then we talk about what the problem is. And then we talk
00:01:03.580
about what the solution is. Um, and then on Q and AF, which is what you're going to hear today,
00:01:08.400
we talk about how to make a better, more complete winning human being. And if you're a better,
00:01:13.480
more complete winning human being, uh, collectively, if we all do that, the problems that we identify
00:01:18.520
will naturally correct themselves. So this is a peanut butter and jelly type situation. This is
00:01:23.860
where, uh, we have how to get better personally. And then how do we, uh, activate our skillset to
00:01:30.180
solve these big problems, uh, on a social scale. Then sometimes when you tune in, we have real talk.
00:01:36.160
Real talk is, uh, five to 20 minutes of me, basically just giving you a speech. Uh, some of
00:01:43.240
you call it a rant. Some of you call it an aggressive rant. Uh, really it's just my internal
00:01:48.020
dialogue of what I think needs to happen to make things better. Um, then sometimes like other shows,
00:01:53.760
we do have an interview style format, which is more of a conversation. Uh, many people like to
00:01:59.720
criticize me on my interviewing skills. Uh, well, you can't be fucking great at everything. Okay. I got
00:02:04.760
my fucking cracks. Um, one of them is an actual interview, uh, because I interrupt people and I,
00:02:11.120
it's called a conversation motherfuckers, but get with it. All right. Now I've gotten a lot better
00:02:15.860
over the years, but I'm still not that great. Uh, so if you don't like it, you can go listen to
00:02:19.900
someone else interview people because every other motherfucking podcast is exactly the same. All right.
00:02:25.280
So that's the rundown of the show here. And then for all of this wonderful, uh, information that I'm
00:02:31.000
about to bestow upon you, uh, we have a fee. The fee is very simple guys. I don't take money from
00:02:38.760
other companies, uh, because I'm not going to be beholden to other companies. Uh, I do this shit
00:02:43.920
out of my own pocket. I produced a show out of my own pocket. I don't fill your fucking ears with 20
00:02:49.500
minutes of fucking ads every show. Um, and in return, I would appreciate if you would spread
00:02:54.120
the show for me. Okay. That's the fee. The fee is tell a friend, uh, share the show, help us grow the
00:03:00.560
show. These things matter because if you're not going to preach the message, uh, at least have the
00:03:05.720
courage enough to share the message and allow me to preach it and stand by it. Okay. Uh, so I
00:03:10.720
appreciate you guys. If you find value in the show, please share it. With that being said, um, let's
00:03:16.240
start the show. What do we got, dude? I got some good ones for you. You always do. What's going on,
00:03:21.420
dude? Dude. Uh, you know, I I've been kind of unplugged. Yeah, I've been a little unplugged. Uh,
00:03:27.960
so, you know, I got to throw that tinfoil back on, but no, I've been, been a little unplugged,
00:03:32.380
just, you know, step by step, bro. Brick by brick and moving. Yeah. What day are you on? 75
00:03:38.660
hard. Uh, today is day 49. Yeah. So that's where you've been focused, huh? Yeah. Uh, it's been there,
00:03:44.520
man. It it's, it's, it's so crazy, but like, I feel like now I'm just like, I should have did this
00:03:49.700
fucking five years ago, bro. Yeah. You know, you should have, I should have. Yeah. But the problem
00:03:54.440
was the program didn't exist five years ago. Exactly. That's why probably why you didn't do it. Yeah.
00:03:58.500
So it's your fault. Yeah, it is my fault. Like, why did you listen? You know what it is, dude?
00:04:03.440
It's cause I'm racist. Is that what it is? Yeah. It's because I am far right. Alt-right extremist
00:04:11.220
domestic terrorist racist. That's why. Yeah. That's why I didn't invent the program five years
00:04:16.660
ago. Only fucking four years ago. Right. Because I didn't want you to do it specifically. That makes
00:04:21.200
sense. I know it makes sense. Yeah. Is that CNN? And now I'm being oppressed by these two work out
00:04:26.300
today. Yeah. Yeah. It's a problem, dude. Got to read fucking books. Like, what am I? White
00:04:30.780
supremacy, bro? No, it's going fucking good though, man. It's going good. We talked yesterday about it
00:04:35.440
and, you know, not to get discouraged at all, but you keep moving, man. Yeah. Yeah. Well, good. You
00:04:41.120
look good, dude. I can tell it's working. I'm getting there, man. Make sure you don't, uh, fuck off.
00:04:45.500
No, no, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm in too, in too deep right now. So what we got for questions
00:04:51.320
today? Cause, uh, we, we, I've got some, some guests in town and, uh, been in, been in meetings
00:04:57.220
all morning. I'm about to do some more meetings. A little s'mores party. Oh, not that kind of,
00:05:01.480
not those guests. Let's knock these out. Uh, any question number one, you speak a lot
00:05:09.120
on how your dad instilled some of the qualities, uh, that you live by today. What are some major
00:05:14.940
key differences that you see in parents today, uh, versus what your dad taught you? And how
00:05:21.320
do you suggest you fix that, that, that breaking the chain? Um, the way that most parents are
00:05:27.620
raising their children today is, uh, very much not in line with how I was raised at all. Um,
00:05:35.060
you know, I was raised in a situation where we were taught, uh, the reality of what it's
00:05:44.940
took to win. Okay. We were taught things like be aggressive. Um, life is a competition. Okay.
00:05:53.440
Uh, you have to do the work to get good. You know, you have to do the work for a long time
00:06:00.480
to succeed. Uh, you could be anything you want. And my dad meant that, um,
00:06:08.800
you know, it was very, it's been very evident. Okay. Like I'll give you a real world example. Um,
00:06:14.940
I went to watch my nephew Enzo play soccer. Okay. And Sal spends an infinite amount of time
00:06:25.540
with him in soccer, baseball, and golf. Yeah. Every day is something different. Yeah. They
00:06:31.200
practice these three sports nonstop and Enzo loves it. So he practices too on top of it.
00:06:37.660
And I went to a game recently where he scored three fucking goals, basically right in a row
00:06:46.440
at the beginning of the game. Okay. So like in little kids sports, you know, little kids kind of
00:06:52.120
move around in a pack. Right. And he has developed because he's practiced and because his father
00:06:58.760
spends an infinite, infinite amount of time helping him learn skills. Um, Enzo can go take the ball,
00:07:05.460
dribble around all the fucking kids and he scores fucking goals. And then they put them on the
00:07:12.060
sideline and make them sit down. Okay. And, and a few weeks ago, you know, Enzo had scored three
00:07:18.340
goals and one of the parents of the other, of the other team threw a fucking temper tantrum on the
00:07:24.560
sideline of the game, took off his shirt, screaming up and down, you know, talking about, you know,
00:07:30.520
all this shit about how fucking it's not fair and this and that, and this, and this guy's
00:07:34.960
fucking 300 fucking pounds. He's five fucking eight. You know, he hasn't fucking read a book
00:07:39.600
or lifted a weight or ate anything that wasn't fucking fried in 20 fucking years. It was very
00:07:44.260
apparent. Um, is, you know, he, he's clearly probably not putting in the work with his own
00:07:50.580
kid. Right. And he's screaming at this fucking kid's game about how this other kid that's happens
00:07:58.120
to be Enzo. Right. Okay. Is doing well and kicking the shit out of everybody else. Not fair. Yeah. And
00:08:06.340
this is fucking reality. Like we can argue, we can wish, we can say, we can talk about, we could even
00:08:15.140
legislate rules to make things more fair. But at the end of the day, natural order is going to
00:08:22.280
fucking win. And natural order means that if you want to win, you have to have skills. If you want
00:08:28.780
to win, you have to work hard. If you want to win, you have to practice. If you want to win, it's going
00:08:35.160
to take more effort than what the other motherfucker is putting in. And these are all things that were
00:08:39.960
taught to Sal and I by our dad. Okay. He didn't, he, and by the way, during this time, there was all
00:08:48.640
kinds of crying and temper tantrums and, you know, us not liking that he was hard on us and this and
00:08:54.280
that and this. Um, but at the end of the day, uh, I think we've both done pretty well because of those
00:09:03.860
lessons that we were taught and people nowadays like to make excuses or they like to try and make
00:09:11.200
things soft or they like to, to try and remove the natural lessons that your children need to learn
00:09:16.400
about competition in life. I mean, bro, this is the reason I started my children's book series.
00:09:21.540
I chart, I started the children's book series as a guide for parents that weren't blessed enough to
00:09:28.120
have a parent that actually taught them the real truth of reality. Okay. So the, the, the bottom line
00:09:35.360
is this, my dad and my mom both told us the fucking truth. They never lied to us. Yeah. Okay. Did they
00:09:43.920
were, were, were, were things they said uncomfortable sometimes? Yes. Uh, we're, did it make life hard as a
00:09:51.380
kid sometimes? Yes. Uh, but I don't know. We employ thousands of people. Okay. We create change in tens
00:10:01.340
of thousands of people, if not millions of people, honestly, uh, to improve their lives, make their
00:10:06.900
lives better, teach them how to win. And we're directly successful in life. Um, because of those
00:10:13.380
lessons that we were taught when we were a kid and, you know, for a long time, I never recognized
00:10:19.760
that I thought everybody was, was raised that way. So like, I didn't recognize for many, many years
00:10:27.220
how lucky I was. And I don't use the word luck very often. I, I only use it in a few circumstances,
00:10:33.800
but you can't pick your fucking parents. Right. Okay. And I got fucking lucky and you know, I see
00:10:43.340
the softness and the weakness and the idealism and the raising around the idea of how things should
00:10:50.940
be not how they are that has infected the culture of children who then grow up believing that all of
00:11:00.440
these things are actually the way it is. You know, when you give a kid a trophy for showing the fuck up
00:11:06.160
their whole lives, and then they get out in the real world and they don't get celebrated for showing
00:11:11.640
up to work. Right. There, there, there's more that's demanded of them. And if they want to earn
00:11:15.880
a higher salary, they have to be more skilled. And, and you, you, you raise these kids to believe
00:11:21.800
X and then you put them out in the world and it's actually Y. We get punched in the fucking face. Yeah.
00:11:28.260
Over and over and over again. Like you, you, you parents out there, you must realize that you are
00:11:32.860
handicapping your children by not telling them the truth about way things are. You know, most of these
00:11:38.840
fucking parents are villainizing success. Okay. And the reason they're villainizing success is
00:11:45.300
because they weren't able to create any and they feel inadequate. And instead of teaching their kids
00:11:50.540
and being honest with their kids, I actually posted about this a few days ago. There was a quote on one
00:11:55.460
of these motivation pages. It says, imagine telling your kids the reason that you quit was because it
00:12:01.300
was too hard. And I reposted back. I said, well, here's the thing, guys, that conversation never
00:12:07.200
happens. That's not the real conversation. No parent looks at their kid and says, I'm a failure
00:12:12.800
because I'm a fucking bitch. Right. Or I'm a failure because I never tried or I'm a failure
00:12:18.240
because it got too hard. That's not what the fuck they say. Instead, they invent this entire story
00:12:24.460
about why it is they're not where they wanted to be. And then they infect their children's mind with
00:12:30.240
that story. And then they grow up believing that it can never be possible because their mom and
00:12:36.660
their dad, who they love and think are superheroes, weren't able to succeed. Right. Because of whatever
00:12:43.480
fucking reason that they put in. Right. Or some external bullshit. Yeah. The job fucked me. The
00:12:48.640
system fucked me. My, my, you know, where I was born fucked me, who I was born as fucked me.
00:12:54.600
And they make up all these different stories and they tell their kid. And then on top of it,
00:12:59.500
they usually tell him, you see that guy that built this company or you see that fucking champion
00:13:04.100
athlete or he's that champion athlete was born with those genetics. That, that person who built
00:13:09.700
that company, they were fucking lucky. And by the way, you don't ever want to be like that because
00:13:14.480
they take advantage of people and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. He's an asshole. Right. And so because of
00:13:18.940
their own inadequacies and their own insecurities, they fill their children's minds with a perception
00:13:25.780
that is not in line with reality. Okay. And I can't think of anything worse than parents who won't own
00:13:33.760
up to their own shortcomings with their kid and say, Hey, look, dude, you know what? I had plenty of
00:13:38.980
opportunity and I fucked off. And you know what? Don't fucking do that. Like you want to, you want to
00:13:44.600
change the cycle of your whole entire family, man up and own your fucking shortcomings with your
00:13:50.660
children and say, you know what? I had an opportunity. I fucked off. We just got out of a meeting fucking
00:13:56.640
two hours ago where my brother, who was a fucking phenomenal fucking baseball player. Okay. Talked about
00:14:04.560
how the reason that he never actually made it, he got a career injury, but he was out chasing girls
00:14:11.740
and he was out in the bars and he was out. He wasn't at batting practice early or late. He wasn't
00:14:16.840
at feeling practice early or late. He was the best player on ability, not on discipline. And had he had
00:14:23.100
the discipline in there, he would have been probably a fucking legacy MLB player because that's how good
00:14:29.040
he was. And you have to be able to fucking teach people why it is things didn't work out if you really
00:14:36.180
want to serve them. And so this attitude that most parents have where they're avoiding the pain of
00:14:43.140
being real with their own kids will actually pass on their own failures and guarantee their kids
00:14:51.020
failures for the rest of their life because the perception that they're giving them. So, you know,
00:14:56.440
those of you out there, this is why I wrote the kids books. I wrote the kids books because I didn't
00:15:01.920
understand that not everybody was raised this way. Okay. It wasn't until I started the MFCEO project
00:15:07.400
with Vaughn did I realize like, damn, dude, I was blessed with a special set of fucking knowledge
00:15:14.720
that not everybody gets to grow up around. And that's why the MFCEO project was the fucking
00:15:19.240
powerhouse that it was. And we'll be again when we're getting ready to launch it again here
00:15:23.160
in the next fucking 30 or 40 days. You see what I'm saying? So, so like, dude, I did get lucky in that
00:15:30.560
regard, but the truth of the matter is, is like, you can know every fucking thing that, you know,
00:15:34.820
unless you go execute, it doesn't matter anyway. So, you know, my, my advice would be to teach your
00:15:41.040
kids to be competitive. My advice would be to teach your kids to practice. My advice would be to teach
00:15:45.960
your kids that they can be anything they want. Cause they can be still, my advice would be to
00:15:50.040
fucking work with them. My advice would be to instill them with the proper set of values. So they
00:15:54.780
understand the game that they're trying to play is actually competition because we could pretend
00:16:00.220
it's not competition. All we fucking want. We can sit there and say, it's not competition.
00:16:04.480
We can fucking say all this shit, but the minute you opt out of it, you get your fucking ass beat
00:16:09.220
by real world. Okay. Because in the real world, bro, there's an element of competition. You know,
00:16:14.700
this idea of don't compare yourself to someone else and blah, blah, blah. Well, the truth of it is,
00:16:21.000
is you should compare yourself to other people. It's a great measuring stick of where the fuck you are.
00:16:25.220
If you're ahead or behind now, should you feel fucking bad and beat yourself up about comparison
00:16:30.980
all the time? No, because it is a battle of you versus you. But these absolute statements that
00:16:36.660
these fucking morons make on the internet that have never built a goddamn thing in their entire
00:16:41.280
fucking life are literally hurting our people from succeeding. This is no different than the victim
00:16:46.920
culture that's perpetuated by people who sell self-help shit, right? There's a lot of people out there
00:16:52.820
who sell self-help books, self-help programs, self-help shit. And then when you read their
00:16:58.420
fucking content, it's all about how fucked up you are. Sometimes motherfucker, it ain't that you're
00:17:04.720
fucked up. It's just, you're not doing anything. You're not executing. You're not putting in what
00:17:10.140
the fuck, you know, into action. You're not necessarily fucked up. And there's a lot of people
00:17:15.180
out there that want to make everybody think that they have all these things about them that are
00:17:18.900
fucking fucked up so that they'll buy their shit on how to fix their fucked up lives.
00:17:23.840
And the truth of the matter is, guys, this is very simple. It's one plus one equals motherfucking
00:17:27.800
two. If you do the work, if you fucking do the work for long enough and you're able to fucking
00:17:34.220
not repeat mistakes over and over again, you will get where you want to go. That's the fucking reality.
00:17:39.940
Okay. And it applies to everything and everybody. Okay. Most people don't get put out of business.
00:17:45.540
They quit. Most people don't get canceled. They quit. Most people don't fucking lose.
00:17:50.480
They quit. They just stop because shit punched them in the face a little bit too hard. So they
00:17:56.180
redirect and now they're fucking over. Okay. So, you know, you ask what I learned. I learned all
00:18:01.860
that shit. Yeah. And it's made, it's, it's done pretty okay for me. All right. I got a long way to
00:18:06.500
go, bro. I'm not sitting here preaching off my fucking ivory tower, dude. I'm a human being like every
00:18:11.300
other motherfucker. Listen to this. I have my weaknesses and I have my strengths. I have my
00:18:15.820
flaws and I work on my flaws consistently. I'm not a perfect human. Okay. So don't mistake that,
00:18:21.520
you know, because I'm talking to you about these things that have helped me achieve that you somehow
00:18:25.660
think I have it all figured out because I fucking don't. But here's what I do know is that every day
00:18:30.940
we have an opportunity to get better. Every day we have an opportunity to improve. Every day we have an
00:18:36.040
opportunity to become the person that we want to be and move towards that. And that is truly the
00:18:41.540
fucking key of everything. Okay. But you ain't going to get a trophy for showing up to fucking
00:18:46.060
work. You're not going to get celebrated for doing the bare minimum. You know, you got these
00:18:50.500
motherfuckers out there now that are talking about, you know, uh, quiet quitting. Okay. I'm not going to,
00:18:56.160
I'm not going to do any extra work for my career if I don't get paid for it first. Well, guess what
00:19:01.480
motherfucker? They know how fuck it works. That's not how natural order works. You, you quiet fire,
00:19:06.980
you become great. You become great. Then you get the reward. You do not get the reward and then
00:19:12.560
become whatever it is you're promising to become. Because guess what? 10,000 years of motherfuckers
00:19:17.540
trying to fucking operate that way. It's never worked. It's never worked. And you ain't the first
00:19:22.700
person to think of that. You think you're the first fucking person to ever think, well, fuck dude,
00:19:27.620
they pay me and then I'll work. No, you fuckers lose. And people who decide to build skills that
00:19:34.540
contribute, they win. That's the natural order of reality. And if you're teaching your kids
00:19:40.000
anything other than that, you're fucking them up for their whole entire lives. So I'd consider
00:19:44.700
maybe auditing what the fuck it is you say or not say to your own kids about success.
00:19:50.260
And when you hate on success, you're guaranteeing them, guaranteeing them a life of fucking struggle
00:19:58.100
and misery and frustration because they will never achieve it because you didn't achieve it.
00:20:03.520
And bro, to me, that's the biggest fucking child abuse you could ever fucking do.
00:20:10.000
You take their fucking dreams away because you're a fucking, you're a fucking loser and you can't
00:20:15.400
identify that you fucking lost because you have your own fucking losing mentality.
00:20:24.220
Yeah. So all your fucking parents out there, fucking swallow that shit. Send me a message
00:20:29.780
to tell me how I'm fucking wrong. And then we'll fucking check back on you in 20 fucking
00:20:40.200
We'll lose this country if that doesn't change.
00:20:42.680
We'll lose this country if that doesn't change.
00:20:44.520
If parents don't get real with why the fuck they haven't gotten where they wanted to go
00:20:49.400
and get on the path of getting there because it's not too late and too late.
00:21:02.220
I talked about my meeting today talking about 2008 ruined me motherfucking.
00:21:12.540
Like people will fucking, people will fucking hang on to that one fucking thing.
00:21:18.740
I tore my ACL in the fucking homecoming game so I couldn't make my NFL debut.
00:21:23.640
Uh, you know, I got fired because, uh, they wanted me to work too hard.
00:21:30.140
Now I, you know, I'm fucking blackballed or some fucking bullshit.
00:21:32.940
Like bro, society is riddled with fucking pussy itis.
00:21:41.620
And bro, we're ruining generations of fucking Americans in the greatest country it's ever
00:21:46.180
existed because people can't tell the truth about why they are where the fuck they are
00:21:51.680
They'd rather attach themselves to the victim identity than they would see their kids actually
00:21:56.780
overcome it and become something fucking better than they were.
00:22:02.280
When I grew up, my dad, my dad's fucking goal for me was to do better than he fucking did.
00:22:11.500
But so, you know, who knows what happens later or tomorrow, whatever you can always fuck it
00:22:18.560
And people think, Oh dude, for sale has got a nice, he's the fucking this.
00:22:21.620
And that, bro, come work with me for a fucking week.
00:22:43.200
I subscribe to the facts, not the fucking feelings.
00:22:48.200
If you don't teach your kids to win, ain't gonna fucking win.
00:22:51.120
If you shit on, if you shit on success, you think your kids are going to pursue, pursue
00:22:59.540
Like I, I would respect him 10,000 times more if he was just honest with me and told me,
00:23:09.920
But instead, like, there's zero respect because I know, you know, he's a shit.
00:23:19.480
If you give a fuck about your kids at all, you will tell them the truth.
00:23:26.400
And when they ask you why you're not president or why you don't have fucking millions of
00:23:30.660
dollars or why you didn't fucking become whatever it is they say, because they're going
00:23:36.280
The truth isn't that you quit because it was hard.
00:23:39.140
So question number two, Andy, I'm starting off as a fitness coach, and my intent is 100%
00:23:48.740
I've offered my services for free because I'm just a beginner and I want to have a track
00:23:54.720
But I found that people will not execute without paying for things.
00:23:59.920
Am I more justified charging a premium to get the buy-in from customers, even though
00:24:04.880
No, I wouldn't say you're justified to charge a premium when you aren't experienced or offering
00:24:11.620
You, by your own admission, understand there's a lot for you to learn.
00:24:15.460
However, I do agree that people do have to have skin in the game to value the fucking
00:24:22.420
One of my biggest frustrations of my fucking life is doing this motherfucking show for
00:24:27.640
Doing the MFCEO project, which is probably the most complete library of entrepreneurship
00:24:33.220
skill that exists ever, anywhere, for fucking free.
00:24:39.320
How many people get this access to this information and then send me a DM?
00:24:48.500
I'd fucking give you the fucking, the fast lane of how to get there.
00:24:51.980
And you're crying to me about why the fuck you can't.
00:25:03.460
Because if you're someone who will fucking take information from someone who's genuinely
00:25:07.780
trying to help you and then come to them and make excuses to why you can't, well, then
00:25:17.600
You will get better results by charging at least a minimum fee for whatever information
00:25:23.060
you're providing so that you weed out the fucking tire kickers and you get people who
00:25:28.640
So for this person, I think the biggest thing that they need to understand is, you know, you're
00:25:33.020
going to, you're going to, yes, you're going to want to price it.
00:25:35.960
No, you're not going to want to price a premium when you don't offer a premium product yet.
00:25:39.780
You're going to want to get enough that you can, you can get some skin in the game so
00:25:43.800
that they can be accountable so they will get great results.
00:25:46.420
And then you build your fucking, your foundation upon those results that you, you built.
00:25:51.580
Like, bro, like we talked about with Lane Norton when he was here, you know, fuck bro.
00:26:10.000
You're going to build your, your platform all off of very low reward work, but the reward
00:26:18.280
comes later when you've done however many years of, you know, amazing results.
00:26:29.120
And like everybody wants the big paycheck now, just like I said a minute ago, they want
00:26:33.900
the paycheck upfront, you know, the, the quiet quitters.
00:26:37.080
I want to pay it first and then I'll fucking work.
00:26:45.120
Your whole fucking problem is you won't fucking work.
00:26:48.640
It doesn't matter if I come pay you 150 fucking grand a fucking week, you're still not going
00:27:00.040
So bro, if you want to be a fucking loser your whole entire life, then go be one of these
00:27:10.040
You could, you listen, here, here's the, here's the silver lining of all this.
00:27:16.620
There's never been a greater opportunity for fucking savage motherfuckers to win.
00:27:22.840
I thought when I started the MSEO project, 2015, I would talk to these younger guys about
00:27:31.500
There's never been a better opportunity because when I was coming in the business, when I was
00:27:35.800
17, 18, 19 years old, everybody was willing to work and everybody wanted to succeed.
00:27:44.500
That was American culture thing that we had going on back then that we've lost today.
00:27:49.400
Now you have most people that don't want to do shit.
00:27:51.800
So if you are a savage motherfucker that wants to win, you will fucking have a much easier
00:27:56.980
time winning much, much, much easier just by the numbers.
00:28:04.680
There's plenty of opportunity for people that want to fucking actually deal with facts, build
00:28:09.660
shit that benefits people and helps people and make a lot of fucking money doing so at
00:28:18.240
Guys, Andy, our third and final question, Andy, uh, question number three, I consider
00:28:26.520
I work for a great company with a, uh, with great core leaders.
00:28:30.480
The owners seem to be content with where we are.
00:28:36.920
How would you approach the owners of the company to allow us to grow?
00:28:41.460
Uh, so that I can continue improving my career.
00:28:44.480
Well, the first thing is this, um, if you own a company and you operate that way, you're
00:28:53.500
If you're, if you're, if you're content, you're going to lose.
00:28:57.580
So whoever owns this company that this person is talking about, or if you recognize that
00:29:03.160
maybe that could be written about your company, uh, you should change it because you'll lose.
00:29:14.320
Um, because while you're standing still and trying to maintain where you are, the flow of
00:29:26.900
And, and because of that, you are by default getting worse because everybody else is getting
00:29:35.400
When you stop trying to get better and you take a break or you take a breath or you take
00:29:39.760
a fucking year off or you take a fucking, you know, Hey, we're, we're good where we are.
00:29:48.840
And eventually by default, because you're staying where you are, everybody else passes you by
00:29:54.220
and you can go from the, this, this is a, this is how you lose personally.
00:29:59.000
And as a, as an organization, you could go from the best fucking employee in inside of your
00:30:03.960
company to the worst by not recognizing how the flow works.
00:30:08.900
You, you could be the best guy today and a year from now be literally the worst by just
00:30:17.100
You, you could be like, and right now a lot of companies are going to go through this.
00:30:20.540
A lot of companies are going to pull in the fucking efforts.
00:30:24.440
They're going to try to cut out all this shit and they're going to try to weather the storm.
00:30:27.480
And those companies will get fucking destroyed by companies who stay aggressive in the best
00:30:32.380
way that they possibly can responsibly, of course, you know?
00:30:35.900
Um, but to answer your question, how do you change an owner's mindset about their company?
00:30:41.080
Um, you know, unfortunately, you know, you have to be in the right organization.
00:30:49.020
That's like, if you're an entrepreneur and you're someone, you have to, you have to look
00:30:53.320
for an organization that is aligned with you already because the chances of you changing
00:30:59.740
someone who owns the company, um, because if they're already stopping, they're probably
00:31:07.760
It's just not like the kind of leader that stops is not the kind of leader that listens
00:31:13.380
Um, he's not aware of what, what the temperature is because he did his shit.
00:31:18.280
Because by the nature of them stopping, they lack the awareness to understand that they
00:31:23.140
are also stopping the careers of everybody that works there.
00:31:25.920
So, you know, I can tell from the question that this person is probably in the wrong organization.
00:31:31.440
I don't know that there's something you can go do or tell or say to the ownership that's
00:31:43.060
But what I, what I say, what I imagine you'll probably get back is a lip service, you know?
00:31:51.840
And then they're never going to do it because if you have the type of character that you're
00:31:55.740
not like, bro, you know, because you're with me 24 hours a day, essentially.
00:32:01.700
And these guys in this room know, but people don't really understand, like I'm here every
00:32:14.300
And do out of all the people that have to be here, I'm the one that has to be here the
00:32:20.720
And the reason I'm here every single day is because of him and him and him and you
00:32:31.060
Because that's their fucking careers and I'm part of the team.
00:32:34.900
So if I don't do my fucking part for them, what does that make me?
00:32:39.220
I'm dead weight, just like they would be dead weight.
00:32:43.860
So my, my, my advice, and by the way, we're not the only company like that.
00:32:50.220
But they're not, they're not as popular as, you know, the Coca-Cola's or the Pepsi's or
00:32:56.080
the fucking big ass brands, the Walmarts and like all this shit that you guys are familiar
00:33:00.680
You're going to have to, you're going to have to do your research.
00:33:03.480
You're going to have to look, are the, is this a winning brand or they, do they have
00:33:07.020
a winning play or are they actually building shit or they actually care about jobs?
00:33:13.620
And I'm not saying that your company that you like is going to be a perfect track record.
00:33:17.140
Like they're not, no one's going to have perfect track record, but, but are they moving on
00:33:23.600
the trajectory that you would like your career to move in?
00:33:26.040
Because it's much easier to hop in with someone like that.
00:33:31.240
There's going to be a lot more motherfuckers in that, in that boat rowing real fucking
00:33:34.480
hard to try to get it to where it's trying to go, but that's where you want to be because
00:33:42.220
And trying to fight the momentum of your company when you're someone who's hungry for
00:33:47.560
And I, I, I would possibly have a conversation and maybe wait and see if you really care about
00:33:53.920
But the truth of the matter is, is like, it sounds to me like the alignment is off and
00:34:00.360
And we only have a short amount of time here on this planet, dude.
00:34:03.360
And my personal take is you should be somewhere where you enjoy the people, you enjoy the
00:34:10.220
culture, you enjoy the mission, and it doesn't necessarily, uh, feel like work.
00:34:18.360
Because to work hard enough to where you get the reward, you have to do something that
00:34:25.860
Otherwise it's going to be miserable because you spend most of your time there.
00:34:34.680
And, um, if you're a company, you know, let's say you are a company that is, that is trying
00:34:40.280
to grow and you have a big vision and you're executing on that vision.
00:34:44.120
See, a lot of people have big visions, bro, but not a lot of people execute on the big
00:34:47.940
Like a lot of motherfuckers walk in a meeting and they say, Oh, we're going to do this and
00:34:51.620
this and this, but then none of their actions actually back that up.
00:34:57.380
They walk out, they get in their fucking Rolls Royce, they dry the fuck off and they're,
00:35:01.420
they're painting a false fucking premise for the people that actually pay their fucking,
00:35:05.020
uh, you know, that drive their company and pay their bills and all these things.
00:35:10.940
That's even worse to me than the motherfuckers that don't try.
00:35:15.840
So, so, you know, if you're an entrepreneur, there's, there's, there's great opportunity
00:35:20.360
right now to get yourself hitched with companies that are continuing to grow.
00:35:23.120
In fact, over the next one to three years, it's going to become very clear who the fuck
00:35:29.420
is actually about it and who was just fucking talking shit.
00:35:33.580
Because things are going to get hard and when things get hard, people who are actually
00:35:40.800
That it becomes very apparent who the fucking winners are and who the fucking not winners
00:35:47.780
Cause you talk a lot about like being offensive as offensive as a business, right?
00:35:51.960
What are some signs that I guess entrepreneurs can look for to tell if a business is about
00:35:57.120
to go fucking head into the fucking storm or going to the turtle shell?
00:36:00.040
Well, there could be a number of indicators, but I mean, a general sense of aggressive growth
00:36:07.320
Like what, what, what does a company look like?
00:36:11.040
They're, they're, they're talking about new projects.
00:36:15.640
They're, they're implementing these, these things that we talk about fast.
00:36:19.560
Uh, they have a, a large amount of intent to move the needle, right?
00:36:26.140
Uh, basically all the things that these pussies don't fucking like, uh, there's a whole lot
00:36:31.740
There's, there's an aggressive vibe about growth and winning and doing better.
00:36:39.680
And if there, if there, if it's just talk and there's no actions to follow that up, well,
00:36:43.980
then you got yourself what I consider the worst kind of fucking operator, which is the
00:36:47.900
one that'll straight up lie about what they're going to do.
00:36:50.560
Um, but you know, bro, are they, are they hiring people?
00:36:56.560
Like not, not new buildings, you know, but, but like, are they building new products or
00:37:02.500
new offerings or are they, you know what I'm saying?
00:37:04.400
Like, is there a general sense of progress and movement that you can plug into and feel?
00:37:11.040
Um, but those things, you know, like those things are pretty obvious if you pay attention.
00:37:17.900
I think a lot of people just don't pay attention past the initial job.
00:37:21.000
Like the truth is, I think a lot of culture thinks that the day they had the job, they're
00:37:26.600
No, the day you got the job means you got an opportunity and you have to earn that opportunity
00:37:34.460
And in one of these companies, like in a company that's moving aggressively, you're, you're,
00:37:40.880
Like, you're not going to come in this building and get a fucking job.
00:37:44.160
And then, well, I guess I'll pick up a door and start rowing.
00:37:47.500
It's not, it's not going to happen because dude, here's the thing.
00:37:50.320
When, when, when everybody else in those companies see somebody like that, they all hate that
00:37:55.020
person because they understand that that person is costing them their fucking career progress.
00:38:02.040
So like when you have a strong culture, that's moving the proper way, can't hide in it because
00:38:10.060
Well, yeah, because it's them, it's their shit.
00:38:12.620
Like bro, if we're all in a fucking boat and we got two motherfuckers on the, on the, on
00:38:19.520
And we're starting to veer off course and go in a circle because they're not rowing at
00:38:23.360
You know what we're going to do with those fuckers?
00:38:31.900
You can argue about it all day long, but that's, that's the reality.
00:38:34.500
So the good news is, uh, for a lot of you companies who are aggressively growing, you're
00:38:39.480
going to have your pick of the best fucking people because a lot of these people who are
00:38:42.900
really great people inside of a fucking weak organization are going to be looking for to
00:38:49.500
So, uh, I think we're looking at a big transition, uh, in terms of where people work, how they
00:38:57.100
Uh, it's not going to be sitting at home eating crickets with the fucking Netflix and shit
00:39:01.800
like the world economic forum once bugs, it ain't going to be that it's good.
00:39:05.420
There's going to be a lot of people that buy into this falsely and end up losing because
00:39:09.820
And the opportunity for the people that don't buy into it is so fucking massive, bro.
00:39:14.400
Like people don't even see it yet because a lot of people are just quitting and a lot
00:39:20.320
And there's a number of elements that have created this storm.
00:39:22.760
You know, the idea, uh, for the last 10 years that entrepreneurship is some kind of
00:39:28.900
fucking like glorified, like art form or whatever the fuck people think it is.
00:39:42.640
And a lot of these people who think it's like, oh, bro, I'm an entrepreneur in my Instagram
00:39:47.700
bio and think they're just going to, you know, do it there.
00:40:06.080
You know, the things I'm talking about here too, uh, for you, for you parents, going back
00:40:12.300
to the first question, like you want to fix this country, teach your kids American shit
00:40:23.440
Stop shitting on people that have done better than you in life because you're fucking insecure
00:40:28.860
Maybe you should just, maybe your role, maybe your role in this lifetime was to build a
