00:03:33.580
my 10 year high school anniversary oh really union or whatever yeah i'm kind of nervous to be honest
00:03:39.180
with you why because so much has changed in 10 years that's the point that's real i bet it's
00:03:45.060
changed for you know quite a few people but that's the thing dude like i follow some of these guys
00:03:49.520
on facebook and like you know you look at their lives it's like some of them have been stuck in
00:03:53.600
the past you know i'm saying like some of them are still fucking there in high school yeah well you
00:03:57.360
know it was i mean because like dude you started business 19 years old just getting out of high
00:04:01.940
school right so like out of that first 10 years looking back back well i mean dude it's life man
00:04:07.420
you know not everybody gets to go out not everybody's going to graduate from high school
00:04:11.400
and go out and live an awesome productive fulfilling life that takes a massive amount
00:04:15.880
of dedication and work and intentionality to do and most people uh you know first of all they're
00:04:22.460
not even aware that they're able to to create a great life because most people are brought up to
00:04:27.840
believe that who they are is who they are and they were born in a poor family they're going to be poor
00:04:33.120
uh if they were born in you know a crazy family they're going to be crazy and they got to follow
00:04:39.460
that churn yeah yeah and dude that's what they think they are we hear this all the time with fat
00:04:43.400
people right oh fucking fat you know the fat gene runs in the family no motherfucker what runs in
00:04:48.760
your family is nobody you're right okay that's nobody yes that's the fucking problem and so like
00:04:54.560
dude we have a lot of people with fucking very limited belief systems that they try to fit into the
00:05:00.180
box that they've been you know indoctrinated to believe that they belong in and it's just not
00:05:05.960
the truth and so you know uh there's been you know i get to speak for myself my experience there's a lot
00:05:12.920
of people and also it's important to recognize that not everybody is going to be this ultra successful
00:05:20.380
human being in terms of finances like dude there's a lot of guys i went to school with who are great
00:05:26.360
coaches now you know and they're pouring their they're pouring their energy and their effort
00:05:30.540
into the next generation you know um we can't we can't judge everybody's journey based on money and
00:05:38.240
success and entrepreneurship you can't put them in that other box because that's the format of our show
00:05:43.140
right like bro this is a winner show we're we're here for the fucking winners like losers need not
00:05:47.340
apply here like they won't get it they won't resonate that doesn't mean i fucking don't like them
00:05:51.680
right it doesn't even mean that you know all it means is that there's different paths and you know
00:05:58.140
most of the people that succeed that's a small percentage of of the population so like you know
00:06:03.820
i think the important thing when you really consider what people do or don't do in their life
00:06:09.560
is like are they fulfilled truly these people who aren't necessarily quote-unquote uh fulfilled
00:06:21.520
a lot of them pretend to be fulfilled right okay because what they've done is a long time ago they
00:06:27.340
had these massive dreams and they had these massive goals and these things they could have been
00:06:31.020
and as life started to like lean on them right because life gets harder after high school don't
00:06:36.580
get fucking easier and shit sandwiches come yeah a lot of them full buffet all you can eat bro
00:06:41.660
never stops either and so when you have this what most people do and this is unfortunate and this is
00:06:48.360
why i do what i do this is the whole reason i do what i do is for these people okay
00:06:53.100
inside that group there is a number of people who will snap out of it and really truly become who it
00:07:02.440
is they want to become but most people don't do that what most people do is they start out life with
00:07:10.300
big dreams and then they start getting punched in the face and eventually what happens is they live
00:07:17.380
this life that looks nothing like this the dreams they had and the life that they live they now call
00:07:24.200
their life they say oh i'm proud of it i'm fulfilled i'm happy because they've adjusted their fucking
00:07:29.860
goals to fit their reality not their reality to fit their goals which is how you're supposed to do it
00:07:35.800
and a lot of people out there these are in bro you hear from all the time bro especially me like i hear
00:07:41.740
from these motherfuckers everywhere i go oh dude you think money's everything you you you know i'm
00:07:47.040
fulfilled with nothing and well good for you motherfucker i don't give a shit like you have
00:07:51.220
no saying what the fuck i do or don't do that's loser ass talk yeah right and like we have this
00:07:56.260
everywhere we have people who haven't gone after or haven't paid the dues or haven't done what it is
00:08:02.120
needed to be done and instead of them snapping out of it at 25 or 30 or 40 even or fucking 50 even
00:08:09.520
and saying fuck dude i'm wasting my life they continue to say well i'm happy with what i have
00:08:15.380
and i'm fulfilled here except when you really look at their life they're a fucking drunk they're fat as
00:08:21.100
fuck they're broke as fuck and they're nothing as they represent nothing to what they once wanted to
00:08:26.960
become and these people are the people who are bitter and these are the people that hate on you
00:08:32.040
motherfuckers that are out there doing things like most of the people listen this show are out there
00:08:35.760
doing something yeah these are the people who talk to you and talk shit to you and talk down on you
00:08:41.560
and make little snide remarks and it has nothing to do with you it has to do with them giving up what
00:08:48.160
they could have had and then being bitter because they didn't have the fucking guts to go out and do
00:08:53.200
the work to fucking do it parents do that too oh fuck yeah bro yeah it's the biggest problem with
00:08:57.520
parents parents will fucking ruin their own lives and then tell the kid that they won't be shit
00:09:04.520
because the parent isn't shit this happens all the time the biggest fucking liability to to success
00:09:10.780
is your own fucking parents telling you bullshit because parents will only teach based off the
00:09:16.600
perspective that they have and most parents are so embarrassed about the little that they have
00:09:22.720
achieved that they will villainize achievement and winning to the kids to make themselves look better
00:09:28.660
okay this is this is a big problem this holds more people back in the world than literally any
00:09:34.760
problem we could talk about the teachers we could talk about the government we could talk about this
00:09:38.720
the biggest fucking roadblock between kids and becoming who they want to be in their dreams whoever
00:09:45.200
they want to be is their own parents telling them fucking shit that they don't know anything about
00:09:49.240
because how can you expect a parent to teach success who's never had success right
00:09:54.260
right you can't because they don't know now i will say there's a lot of parents out there as well
00:10:01.220
this is not there's a lot of parents out there that are falling into the category where they're
00:10:05.040
like fuck okay i realized i fucked up my shit so i'm gonna fucking humble myself and i'm gonna make
00:10:11.500
sure that these kids know the right shit yeah and then they use their failures as a teaching point
00:10:16.220
for their own kids that is noble shit that takes humility that is fucking removing your ego and
00:10:22.880
that's the shit that needs to be done in society but dude you can like now where i'm at life i can
00:10:28.800
point these people out a hundred miles away like i can just see the comments they leave on instagram
00:10:32.820
i'm like oh well they all look the same they all sound the same that's real yeah dude i saw a comment
00:10:38.440
on a on a successful dude i know uh made a post today and somebody was like oh you took your team
00:10:44.940
out to the most expensive resort in southwest florida for a dinner when i can't even pay my rent well
00:10:51.980
mind you not being able to pay your rent is your fucking problem motherfucker i'm sorry yeah no but
00:10:57.280
dude this is the attitude in society now oh man we have the losers feeling comfortable enough to be
00:11:02.260
vocal to point at someone who's actually doing shit and has paid dues long before this person ever even
00:11:09.420
fucking thought about doing anything yeah and they're crit they criticize these people and bro for those of
00:11:16.020
you out there chasing success you have to understand those people are miserable yeah those people they
00:11:22.560
don't hate you bro they hate themselves real talk and now it does bother you right because you're like
00:11:27.860
what the fuck but it shouldn't because these are the same people that you will walk into the grocery
00:11:33.200
store the gas station or the supermarket and you'll you see them in real life and you'd be like holy
00:11:39.100
yeah what the fuck is up with this dude like these are that's who you have to understand these people
00:11:44.220
are their existence their life is punishment bro and your life might be too but they're not getting
00:11:52.380
any payoff and that's the key that's the key that people don't understand about success in life is that
00:11:58.220
it is going to be fucking hard it's going to be hard whether you choose to go all in and bust your
00:12:03.800
fucking ass and do everything you could possibly do and become obsessed and win and do this over
00:12:09.920
and over and over again over the course of your life that's hard that's hard but you get something
00:12:15.220
for it the other hard is being a fucking loser criticizing people who are doing things you know
00:12:22.300
making fun of these people making remarks and sitting your fat ass on a bar stool on a fucking tuesday
00:12:26.960
afternoon drinking fucking beer uh and then and then playing back armchair quarterback to all the
00:12:31.680
motherfuckers are doing things that's hard too and that's i'm going to tell you right now that's the
00:12:37.020
harder path so you have to decide which one you're going to be because dude life's not easy you're
00:12:43.200
going to pay the fucking price either way you can either pay the price today by doing the work and
00:12:47.940
then you get a little bit of something for it and by the way there is never a time that comes where
00:12:52.000
you don't have to pay the price this is what kills success more than anything people get to a
00:12:56.700
certain point they put their feet up they say oh i fucking made it and someone eats their lunch bro
00:13:02.360
and takes everything from them this is this is competition this is dude people don't understand
00:13:08.060
we are in competition dude and humans are made to compete you you listening to this who might be
00:13:14.820
thinking whoa andy you're just highly competitive yeah but so are you or you were yeah and the reason
00:13:21.080
you're not anymore is because someone fucking beat it out of you over the course of your life
00:13:24.680
but there's a dog in there no bro give a kid a fucking nerf basketball and watch him put it in
00:13:30.260
the fucking hoop when he's fucking two years old he'll get excited okay but take that fucking ball
00:13:35.580
and smack it out of his hand when he's getting ready to do it what's he do he gets pissed off
00:13:39.700
the nature of life the nature of humanity and the nature of all life forms is competition it's nature
00:13:49.700
it's natural order this is why making laws and society that go outside natural order will never
00:13:55.380
work eventually natural order will take over comes back yeah for sure bro so it's this so many people
00:14:01.160
try to opt out of the competition oh i'm not competitive well get ready for an ass beating bro
00:14:05.580
because everybody else is yeah i think i think another like one point in there man that i think
00:14:09.520
is really fucking awesome that people need to really think about because i was thinking about
00:14:13.360
this uh with the what your buddy said that had the team dinner bro that that team dinner was paid
00:14:17.660
10 years ago that team dinner was on the schedule and set in stone and already paid for 10 years ago
00:14:22.340
dude and i'd like that's a like i'm starting to fucking really understand the input output right
00:14:27.400
you can't argue with stupid yeah if you argue with stupid what's that make you
00:14:35.680
it's crazy though man no go ahead with your point no i'm just saying like like people don't like
00:14:41.540
there's an input and output like time value that nobody understands like i'm working today
00:14:47.300
for dinners 10 years from now absolutely you know i'm saying like and like it takes a little
00:14:52.000
bit to really truly comprehend that like i didn't fucking get this dinner today because of the work i
00:14:56.740
did today i did i got the dinner today from work i did 10 fucking years ago and i think it works in
00:15:01.260
reverse too when you don't get the shit you want right you can't afford a fucking dinner today it's
00:15:06.680
probably because of some shit you did 10 years ago no shit why you can't afford the fucking listen
00:15:10.640
bro you're not even the same person today that you were fucking a year ago two years ago five years ago
00:15:15.820
this isn't what you brought up as an important point for people to that they struggle with
00:15:20.500
mentally like a lot of motherfuckers they come from a place where they were a shitty person or
00:15:25.220
they did some shitty things or you know that and they're trying to forgive themselves well you have
00:15:29.960
to realize dude that this is everybody this is the nature of humanity it's the nature of the game
00:15:35.680
hindsight is 2020 so you have to cut yourself some slack bro to where how you're living now yeah and
00:15:42.820
realize that what you did five years ago or three years ago or one year ago that ain't who the fuck
00:15:48.220
you are now now you're on a different path and you need to let all that shit go and realize that just
00:15:53.780
because you lost five years ago or two years ago or one year ago that doesn't make you a fucking loser
00:16:00.100
if you're aware of why the fuck you lost and you're dedicated to changing it and i think a lot of people
00:16:05.500
carry that weight their whole lives and they can never shake it not understanding that none of us
00:16:12.020
are innocent none of us are uh perfect none of us have lived this holy life and you know perfection
00:16:21.820
right and we have to be able to do that especially in business success bro you can't you can't lose
00:16:28.360
like bro i failed eight fucking companies before i had my first successful one as a teenager i fucking
00:16:33.420
started up eight different shit and it failed them all okay if i if i had if i had fucking said well
00:16:39.820
i'm i guess i'm no good at business where the fuck would i be right if i had said oh i'm a loser where
00:16:44.960
the fuck would i be no motherfucker i'm a winner i win at everything and even if i take an l today
00:16:49.760
or tomorrow or next year for the whole year guess what i'm coming back bitch and i'm coming back stronger
00:16:55.880
and i'm gonna cut your fucking balls off because i'm a fucking winner yeah that's it fuck yeah and so
00:17:01.020
you have to decide that shit that's a decision and then you back it up with action but like dude it's
00:17:06.480
you know when it comes to these high school reunions and stuff you know it you know i don't really go to
00:17:13.500
that shit yeah because dude honestly like i don't even think about the past like i don't ever focus on
00:17:19.040
the past i'm not a sentimental person i don't like you know fucking wallow in my memories like i don't
00:17:26.640
i don't miss no i don't do that like i i'm better than i've ever been in my life so like why would
00:17:32.620
i look backwards and think like oh and feel like these warm and fuzzies about this shit where i
00:17:37.760
wasn't even like you know what i'm saying like there's nothing about it there's nothing about my
00:17:43.340
past that's interesting to me to relive because i'm so excited about what's going on now and what's
00:17:47.640
going on in the future that's real i mean i i think i look at it like it's like confirmation of
00:17:53.060
like how far away i came you know i'm saying well yeah it could be that yeah but i mean obviously
00:18:00.960
there's an age difference here you're a lot older in maturity right so i mean yeah but what you're
00:18:04.720
gonna find is that that that gap will just keep continue to widen right and that's what i'm saying
00:18:10.180
so like at some point i'm sure it'll be fucking irrelevant you know you won't care yeah yeah like
00:18:15.340
no offense like i just don't i don't know i get that's what i get it it's no offense to people like
00:18:19.980
i know there's a lot of people that like know me from the old days listen to the show and shit and
00:18:23.900
i'm not like shitting on that i had some great times but like my times that i have now are much
00:18:28.600
better right you know what i'm saying so like i don't i don't i think people generally
00:18:35.120
spend way too much time on on the good old days bro yeah and i think it keeps them from doing it
00:18:43.300
fucking anything yeah hang that fucking varsity letterman up bro bro you see it every day like
00:18:48.620
motherfuckers who are 40 years old talking about what they did in fucking high school football
00:18:51.660
you know what i'm saying that sal does it all the time yeah no he doesn't you don't ever hear
00:18:58.320
the reason you know that fucking people were good as shit is when they don't talk about it that's
00:19:03.760
fucking real man yeah well let's let's uh let's knock these questions out man i got some good ones
00:19:07.940
for you uh any question number one uh as a newly appointed coo coming into an existing company
00:19:16.000
what do you think should be my approach i want to scale and grow the company as much as i can but i
00:19:21.620
don't want the employees to freak out over changes i make what advice would you give me well the first
00:19:28.860
thing i would ask is why don't you want them to freak out because the reality is is the one of the
00:19:34.480
quickest ways to get people to snap in line is to make a drastic fucking change okay and trying to
00:19:39.960
scoot your way in there without ruffling any feathers they make everybody happy that's that's
00:19:47.240
not my style if it were me how i and like i'm sure there's a lot of people who disagree with this
00:19:51.720
but if it were me knowing what i know about how to operate shit i would come in and i would say all
00:19:56.960
right motherfucking new sheriff in town we're gonna do this this this this this with the intention of
00:20:02.480
getting all the people who didn't buy into the way i'm going to do things out the motherfucking
00:20:07.680
door on day one so that's the first thing i would do um like why wait to expose that is what you're
00:20:13.880
saying yeah you're gonna waste fucking you're gonna waste three years figuring out who the fuck's with
00:20:17.780
you and who's not yeah so the quickest way that you can readjust things when you come into a new
00:20:22.560
position like that especially an operations position is to decide what's best for the company
00:20:28.300
and this is not operating with ego this is not you proving a point this is and by the way if
00:20:34.160
they're already doing everything then maybe you don't want to fuck it up but they probably wouldn't
00:20:38.480
be hiring a new coo if that were the case right so the way that you really want to do it is you want
00:20:44.980
to define what systems and what procedures because that's the role of an operating officer it's
00:20:49.280
operations okay that we're going to implement to make sure that we fucking win all right and whatever
00:20:55.780
those happen to be i would come in on fucking day one and put them in place i wouldn't ease in
00:21:00.840
i'm not walking a fucking tightrope i'm not kissing the ass a bunch of motherfuckers i don't even know
00:21:05.880
they can either get with it or they can get the fuck out and this fucking pacifying mentality is
00:21:12.360
what's ruined a whole bunch of your guys's companies because you pacify the one or two squeaky wheels
00:21:17.300
because you're afraid for some reason because of cancel culture shit instead of just getting the
00:21:22.140
fuck out the door and moving forward no okay so look what happened in netflix bro i must have
00:21:26.800
we just talked about yeah netflix fucking hostage netflix netflix straight tried to hold netflix
00:21:31.040
hostage netflix said nuh-uh see ya and they fucking now they're doing much better than what they were
00:21:36.860
and i guarantee you if you talk to the guys that operate the company they're like fuck we should
00:21:40.620
have done that a long time ago guaranteed twitter what jack dorsey did with twitter jack dorsey fell
00:21:47.860
victim to a fucking mob inside of his company and he went along with it and now he's going to be found
00:21:53.360
guilty probably on all kinds of fucking illegal shit very very bad shit yeah okay so you can go
00:21:58.660
one of two ways but my personal my personal way the way i lead is this i don't care if any of you
00:22:05.400
fuckers stay because i'll do the shit myself or i'll find people that will and and so many operators
00:22:10.840
and ceos and managers are fearful that they're actually going to have to get their hands dirty that
00:22:16.460
they will tolerate people who don't buy into their systems or culture not realizing that those are the
00:22:23.060
people that are going to keep you from getting where the fuck you want to go so my opinion would
00:22:27.240
be to make the systems the way that you need to make them go in with the strategy that you think
00:22:31.920
is the best for the company put it into fucking play on day one let them fucking squirm and whoever
00:22:37.940
squirms themselves out the door sayonara yeah that's what there's nobody i mean where they're
00:22:43.860
going to go i don't fucking care it's not the whole landscape availability job yeah i mean that's
00:22:50.800
a whole nother discussion we talk about this quite often you know the job landscape is uh getting much
00:22:58.220
harder it's a little different everybody's getting laid off nobody's really hiring and there's still
00:23:03.920
employees that are behaving as if this is the last 15 years where everybody could get a job and
00:23:10.600
everybody could find work and everybody could figure out how to become a successful rich entrepreneur
00:23:15.500
and there was all these opportunities well those opportunities are drying up at an unprecedented rate
00:23:20.700
and we're going to go into a very difficult time so um if you're an employee of a company and you think
00:23:26.660
you're the shit maybe you should reconsider that yeah just saying because the landscape has changed
00:23:31.600
and it's changed very drastically so uh but regardless of what the landscape is in or out i don't
00:23:37.600
really fucking care like if they go like bro i like is that's not my responsibility to care about
00:23:43.600
my responsibility to care about is to do my fucking job as a coo and run this business talking as that
00:23:49.060
person right so that's what you have to do and you tipping the tip if you're going to tiptoe around
00:23:55.300
your own fucking employees and their shit um you're probably not going to be very good at your job
00:24:00.380
real talk it sounds like they might have hired the wrong guy based on the question in my opinion
00:24:04.500
so i don't know how the fuck lots to think about that i don't know how the fuck you could be a coo
00:24:11.140
and fucking get to the point where you're asking that kind of question being real talk like i don't
00:24:14.640
fucking get it like how the fuck did you even get here dude like you tiptoe your way all around
00:24:19.460
fucking your whole life to get to this point i seriously doubt it maybe you should reach down
00:24:23.700
and figure out what the fuck you're about and uh and do your fucking job
00:24:27.460
andy uh question number two can a person be good and trusting on a personal level
00:24:36.780
but untrustworthy in business on a personal level i enjoy the relationship with this person but on a
00:24:42.980
business level i have zero trust in them based on their behaviors have you seen people who are
00:24:48.020
different in business versus personal or does someone character bleed through together as one
00:24:57.360
i i don't have to like the people i work with they don't have to like me we're not here to like
00:25:04.160
each other we're here to fucking do shit okay i this this whole attitude of i've got to be friends
00:25:11.400
with everybody and i've got this you know and they've got that shit that's nice it is nice sounds
00:25:17.220
good okay and i do like the people that work for me i the ones i know okay i don't know everybody
00:25:22.720
because we have too many people i like them a lot but it's not required there's no handbook that
00:25:29.320
says you have to like the people you work with in fact there's a whole bunch of teammates on
00:25:33.620
championship fucking teams that hated each other look at shaq and kobe right okay we can go down the
00:25:42.040
list of all these people that didn't fucking like each other but still figured out how to win how to win
00:25:46.280
okay there's stories about belichick and tom brady how'd they do i don't really give a fuck
00:25:53.340
about someone's personal qualities being real talk i care about 100 first can they do the job and can
00:26:01.360
they do it at a high level and companies that they like this is this question is just the byproduct
00:26:11.600
of the situation i just explained in the last question which is for the last 15 fucking years
00:26:17.680
we've had the easiest economy ever to win in ever ever ever ever in the history of fucking earth
00:26:24.500
you guys want your fucking cake and you want the fucking next cake and you want that and then you
00:26:30.820
want to eat it all that ain't the way it works motherfuckers there's real competition in the world
00:26:35.740
right now especially with what's going on in the economy your first priority no matter what has to
00:26:42.660
be can they do the job can they do the job at a high level okay after that then you could start asking
00:26:51.120
them oh do i like this person i don't fucking care you know i'm saying because here's the true thing
00:26:56.840
about like and dislike if you want to have real friendship it's got to be based on respect so how are
00:27:03.640
you going to respect that person well the way you're going to respect that person is by them
00:27:08.020
coming in and kicking fucking ass at a high level and then even if you don't like them and they don't
00:27:12.660
like you you're going to start to bond you're going to start to be like all right i don't really like
00:27:16.840
that motherfucker that much but that fucking dude does his job or that girl does his job fucking wins
00:27:20.900
yeah and i fucking like that okay and that's respect and then off of that respect friendships evolve
00:27:27.320
what you're talking about is fake ass friendship okay you're talking about nice you're talking about
00:27:33.420
not having confrontations you're talking about easy okay that's weak ass leadership dude weak
00:27:40.260
because your priority is for everybody to like you not for you to go do whatever the fuck it is that
00:27:46.160
you do at your business and that's what it comes down to dude this is a competition the high level
00:27:51.940
executing people are going to fucking win every single time over the people that don't even if they're
00:27:55.920
nice that's reality have i ever seen it before i don't know i mean fuck dude i never i don't think
00:28:01.960
like that yeah i don't fucking think like oh you know like i i evaluate people on their abilities
00:28:08.020
inside my businesses to do their job at a level and if they're a little difficult i could deal with that
00:28:15.080
if they do their job at a high level now if they become a cancer that's a different thing
00:28:18.520
all right but there's there's nuance here yeah and like you're not going to like everybody that you
00:28:23.180
have in your company they're not all going to like you but if you can inspire them and coach them and
00:28:29.020
teach them to be better how do you think they're going to feel about you they're going to respect
00:28:34.140
you yeah and if they do a job at a high level you're going to respect them and if there's mutual
00:28:38.880
respect there that fosters the opportunity for a true friendship so you know the question doesn't
00:28:47.580
really make sense to me yeah well i mean i i'm assuming there's like a there's definitely like a
00:28:52.460
separate conversation for like ethical entrepreneurship right like if they're doing something obviously
00:28:57.640
unethical why the fuck would you work with them to begin with of course right like i feel like that
00:29:03.600
was kind of like understood um but i think people to put way too much pressure on that touchy feeling
00:29:09.520
shit bro listen man this is something people don't understand winning at a high level success at a high
00:29:18.740
level is a fucking war it is a fucking battle it is not easy nobody's going to give you a fucking inch
00:29:27.220
no but no company is going to say oh well i'm going to make it a little easier for your company to get
00:29:31.840
this market share it's a fucking war you have to fucking take it and the way you take it is by being
00:29:38.160
better and the way you're better is by having a team that executes at the highest possible level
00:29:44.000
do you know who i like the most people who execute at a high fucking level right right you know why
00:29:52.140
because it makes the objective easier to achieve okay and we we we convolute and intertwine all these
00:30:01.040
fucking personal feelings and friendships and this and that and business and dude to be completely
00:30:06.860
honest you motherfuckers that run your business that way that's why you fucking lose
00:30:10.160
it's a game you're playing a fucking game it's no different than playing a fucking nfl game
00:30:16.980
or nhl game or a fucking uh baseball game you're either going to win or you're going to fucking
00:30:23.300
lose it is that so do you think everybody on every fucking like on the fucking houston astros this year
00:30:31.200
do you think every fucking player fucking likes each other on the fucking team do you think they
00:30:37.140
respect each other for being able to do their fucking jobs fuck yeah
00:30:40.500
so like dude it's obvious here it's just there's there's many people in business right now that have
00:30:50.920
never operated in a real competitive environment they've never operated in a true competitive
00:30:56.300
environment because the economy has been so good for so long that it's allowed people who aren't
00:31:02.300
necessarily the right kind of hardened to make uh competitive decisions and operate a competitive
00:31:08.880
company it's allowed them to get some kind of momentum right okay but we're getting ready to go
00:31:14.640
into hard times bro we're getting ready to go into times where the market's retracting people have
00:31:19.780
less available income to spend that means that you have to be much better than everybody else in your
00:31:25.320
category if you want them to spend it with you that's it yeah so i want the people who can execute
00:31:34.680
at a high level and if they execute at a high level i'll give a big fucking hug how about that
00:31:39.280
you know i'm saying no that's real shit like bro this is this this attitude that everybody's your
00:31:46.160
friend that's not even true no it's not even true bro you're the operator of your company bro stop
00:31:51.540
paying motherfuckers see how friendly they are right it's real shit man i know that sounds harsh to
00:32:00.480
people that the reason it sounds harsh to people is because you motherfuckers ain't understand what this is
00:32:04.220
about when everybody else is telling you the fucking complete opposite no bro people don't
00:32:08.180
understand what it's truly about they don't want to hear it they want to hear you can be fucking
00:32:12.080
fluffy feeling nice touchy blah blah blah and still kick everybody's ass and those two things don't
00:32:17.460
necessarily go together in fact i don't know that i've ever seen them go together ever fucking ever
00:32:23.220
we have an amazing culture at my companies not because we're nice because we're all fucking working
00:32:29.320
hard and we all respect each other and value and relationship comes from that it's conditional like
00:32:36.500
it's the whole idea of this conditional unconditional love motherfucker the only unconditional love that
00:32:41.380
you have in your motherfucking life is your fucking dog that is it your fucking friendships conditional
00:32:48.480
your fucking relationship conditional your fucking relationship with your children conditional period
00:32:54.540
your kid goes shoots up a school like they didn't know that you validate what are you gonna fucking
00:32:58.180
think of them right okay people don't want to address reality well this show is called real af for a
00:33:05.420
fucking reason all the relationships in your life are fucking conditional except the one you have with
00:33:09.720
your motherfucking dog once you understand that now you're understanding reality more clearly
00:33:14.620
this whole unconditionally love me okay so you could just be a piece of shit i'm gonna still fucking
00:33:20.140
love you that's not reality right i know you know this we've talked about this fuck yeah
00:33:25.440
absolutely people do this with their fucking families bro they bring their family oh i'm supposed to
00:33:30.800
unconditionally love my fucking family well your family who keeps coming to you and stealing your
00:33:37.120
fucking money or fucking with your income or fucking with your job or showing up to your house at four
00:33:42.100
o'clock in the fucking morning or dogging you out for working hard fuck that family because they're
00:33:47.660
going to take you down with them and people have to people spend so much time being falsely loyal to
00:33:54.020
people who don't deserve the loyalty bro like my family's motherfuckers that got my fucking back
00:33:58.820
my family's motherfuckers that i know i can count on my family does not share my name or my blood or my
00:34:05.660
dna i look at it completely different i look at my whole life that way all right some people don't
00:34:11.940
like that it's how i live it's how every motherfucker that i know that wins on a big level
00:34:17.620
also lives right it's not unique yeah no it's not unique it's not just oh andy's crazy and he's got
00:34:24.320
a he's he's fucking like oh no there's i'm just telling you the way it is y'all just don't like
00:34:30.220
hearing it it's real shit man guys our third and final question uh andy question number three
00:34:37.340
i recently started listening to your podcast and i find it enjoyable and informative you talk a lot about
00:34:44.260
doing something about what's going on my question is what can i do i'm not asking this as a whining uh
00:34:50.460
as whining or saying there's not something that i can do but i just simply don't know how and what i
00:34:55.740
can do as a single person i'm not a business owner i don't have social media accounts i do speak with
00:35:00.940
my wallet and support businesses that are pro-freedom that's a good America but it just feels like such a
00:35:06.680
small thing you have any tips or advice absolutely it's not first of all it's not a small thing
00:35:11.280
second of all that thinking that you're thinking that you're so small that nothing matters is why
00:35:16.640
we're here so i commend that person for actually recognizing okay i'm going to do what i can yeah
00:35:22.040
but there's a reason that i consistently say that personal excellence is the ultimate rebellion
00:35:27.600
okay because what we actually need in the world is a cultural revolution okay people all these 2a guys
00:35:36.420
and by the way i'm pro 2a all the fucking way brother but they're all they don't want to kid up and
00:35:41.060
go fucking shoot motherfuckers okay well there may be a time for that but that time is not here yet
00:35:45.220
the way and by the way let's just say hypothetically that were the time and let's just say that we were
00:35:53.120
able to uh fix the problems through violence let's just say that what about tomorrow what happens the
00:35:59.620
day after what happens tomorrow yeah what happens the day after that okay so what really needs what
00:36:04.960
we're experiencing in the world right now as an intentional um demoralization and degradation of
00:36:11.300
culture okay they're removing family values they're teaching uh debauchery okay they are they're promoting
00:36:18.040
things that make no sense to the average well-rounded logical basic human being on this planet they're
00:36:24.720
they're destroying our culture our memories our history okay there's all kinds of things happening here
00:36:30.300
um and what's what's really happening on the biggest scale that people seem to not grasp yet
00:36:37.500
is that they're intentionally ruining your quality of life and getting you to accept that you are just
00:36:44.480
a mediocre loser piece of shit all right and they do this through branding we see 400 pound people
00:36:50.220
on the cover of health magazines when every motherfucker in the world knows that shit ain't healthy
00:36:55.940
so you have to ask your question why are they doing that well they're trying to normalize that
00:37:00.160
behavior so that you will no longer aspire to become better than what you are okay um with technology
00:37:07.780
they consistently push new technology and and new uh ways to like if you read the chaos machine which is
00:37:14.600
a book all of you should read it'll explain in there how they keep us addicted to social media when you
00:37:19.440
see how they push pornography and normalize all these things what they're actually doing is they're
00:37:24.420
eroding the culture uh a little at a time over the course of years and so what really needs to
00:37:29.860
happen is we need to become people who are above their shitty culture now how do we do that through
00:37:37.060
personal excellence this is why i say personal excellence is the ultimate rebellion because if we
00:37:42.120
were all able to become fit we were all able to make some more money we were all able to uh recognize
00:37:50.000
propaganda when we see it be intelligent put good shit in our brain i'm not talking about
00:37:54.180
articles on the internet i'm talking about books okay some of which could be hundreds of years old
00:37:58.880
i'm talking about actually educating yourself when we talk about making ourselves better you have to
00:38:06.140
understand what that does is it removes us from their potential customer pool okay i'm not sitting
00:38:13.780
uh absorbing fucking streaming services for 10 hours a day nor am i ordering all kinds of takeout
00:38:20.900
on my fucking phone app nor am i required to take a shit ton of prescriptions because i'm no longer
00:38:27.600
350 pounds like i used to be okay so i have perspective on this i'm very healthy i put good things in my
00:38:34.640
brain i work very hard to become financially successful i try to get everybody in the world to be
00:38:40.120
financially successful that's why i do this shit okay and these things matter because when we no longer
00:38:45.620
depend on them or fit inside their customer pool then who are they fucking marketing to they'll have
00:38:52.900
to change their message and they will have to go back because at the end of the day all these
00:38:56.400
motherfuckers care about is money and power okay now that's the first thing that you could do you
00:39:02.820
could become more fit you can work very dip very hard to make more money you could become more educated
00:39:09.720
okay these are things that matter now why does this matter outside of removing us from the customer
00:39:16.260
pool well it matters because what it does is it sets an example for the people that you don't
00:39:22.380
understand are looking at you seeing what you do and then saying well just because dj does it i can do
00:39:28.160
it too it's no big deal possible yeah but it goes either way yeah just because dj is 350 like you
00:39:33.800
used to be right i could be 350 and we could be fat fucks together well he's not going to judge me
00:39:38.220
we'd be cool yeah but when dj starts to get in shape and he starts to get make more money and he
00:39:43.580
starts to get you know some shit going in his life now all of a sudden people are looking at dj and at
00:39:48.700
first they're saying oh dj you think you're fucking better than everybody what are you doing selling
00:39:53.300
drugs you're kicking ass same shit you heard in real life fuck yeah okay i've heard all that yeah i know
00:39:59.340
you have well yeah you told me about it but the point is is that what eventually happens is the people
00:40:06.800
will stop criticizing and they'll actually start looking for ways to improve themselves okay and
00:40:12.120
this is especially important for you guys who have kids like you have to become the example for those
00:40:17.720
kids and we for a long time in this country have taken what we've had for granted and we have not
00:40:25.200
felt the patriotic obligation of living to the best of our abilities to live for the people who have
00:40:34.840
gone and sacrificed their lives for us to even have this place right there's an obligation there bro and
00:40:40.140
it's very patriotic obligation like there's millions of people who have died so that you have the
00:40:45.860
opportunity to live and you happen to live in this time and you're accepting mediocre shit that is less
00:40:53.740
than what you could be that is an abandonment of your duty as a patriot of this country in my opinion
00:40:59.340
sure no it is yeah that's a fucking fact so so if we want things to change and by the way if we
00:41:06.080
culturally change it and everybody got on this narrative and everybody started improving themselves and
00:41:12.020
did exactly what i said went after making more money went after becoming a better human being went after
00:41:17.500
becoming fucking healthy and fit we remove all of their shit that they can do to us we're no longer
00:41:24.220
dependent on them this is why they normalize mediocrity and fucking sloth and being you know unhealthy and
00:41:31.740
fucking weird right they because that's what they do first like oh it's okay no dj you look fine then once
00:41:38.300
you start to pull away then the demonizing come yeah yeah but then then then the joining in comes after that
00:41:43.740
right and see most people quit whenever people start criticizing like when i first started my
00:41:48.340
business bro like at first you know this is 1999 dude at first everybody's like oh that's cool you're
00:41:55.420
starting a business right but like two years in we still didn't have anything people started talking
00:42:00.180
shit yeah and they started being like bro when are you gonna like grow up and get a real job these are
00:42:05.360
things that people really said to me like i don't even know who the fuck said them like i keep a
00:42:08.480
fucking inventory like so and a lot of these motherfuckers i'm gonna tell you the funny part about that
00:42:12.540
story too so they will say they will say you know oh dude you know when you're gonna grow up like
00:42:18.400
these people are graduating college and they're making you know 60 70 80 grand a year and i'm
00:42:23.000
fucking sitting here i'm not making shit okay and these people are telling me i'm a fucking loser
00:42:27.500
right but i keep going i keep going i keep going i keep showing up i keep working hard and and i use
00:42:34.060
their criticism as fucking fuel i take it and i put it right here and this chip on my shoulder that's
00:42:39.400
fucking massive bro i have a massive chip and i try to add to it in every way possible because
00:42:44.540
that's how i'm driven yeah i'm driven to jam this shit down motherfuckers throats and i'm very good
00:42:50.340
at it that's what works for me you think it don't work you say oh well that's the wrong reason i don't
00:42:55.440
know is it right i don't know let's fucking look around right let's be realistic everywhere everywhere i
00:43:01.420
point my fucking camera i get half a dozen of you fuckers talking about i'm bragging motherfucker i
00:43:06.400
can't help it right everywhere i look it's fucking winning right it is what it is okay but those same
00:43:11.820
people those same people who talk that shit once it was clear that i was doing something they changed
00:43:19.380
their tune a lot of them started fucking following my lead okay a lot of them fell in line a lot of
00:43:25.580
those people are becoming better at their path in life because they're witness to what i've done
00:43:32.300
yeah okay and so this is the way it works so if you're out there trying to do something like this
00:43:37.680
person you're trying to improve get ready for some people to question in the beginning but that's okay
00:43:41.760
because you're going to get the fucking last laugh you're going to get the last laugh because you're
00:43:45.440
going to change your whole fucking existence and not only are you going to change your existence your
00:43:49.260
kids are going to change their existence and because you change those kids existence they're going
00:43:53.820
to change people's existence and this is the cultural revolution of personal excellence that we must have
00:43:59.180
because if we can actually change the culture we won't ever need a fucking violent revolution right
00:44:05.140
you can't have one without the other and a lot of you guys that call for violence all the time
00:44:10.860
you you guys are the fat lazy pieces of shit that i'm talking about let's be fucking real dude shit
00:44:15.780
let's be real look at mountain you taking over go fucking look in the mirror go look at your bank
00:44:20.600
account right you got some cool guns cool bro i get that you like america but you're not exactly living
00:44:26.120
up to the fucking standard that it was that you could and that's a fucking failure on our individual
00:44:31.760
part so if we could all step up to that then we could all become that now all of a sudden we're in
00:44:37.360
a situation where the culture has changed and when the cultures change they don't have customers to
00:44:43.080
fucking propagate this bullshit to it's happening it's happening right now like bro people you know
00:44:48.960
two years ago when people put 400 pound purse on a health magazine you know half the country was like
00:44:54.220
oh my god it's so brave i'm so proud yeah but now when they do it people are like this is fucking
00:44:58.980
ridiculous like we're fucking over this shit yeah and that's you know because people know it's
00:45:04.020
bullshit it's fucking now look dude if you're a heavy person and you're happy with how you look
00:45:10.120
genuinely i'm totally cool with that i've never found anybody no they're lying bro because i used to
00:45:15.240
be one of them yeah i used to be that person i used to be that fat fuck that pretended like
00:45:21.020
everything was cool i was that guy i was the person who was the life of the party and always
00:45:27.220
happy and always talking about you know how it was okay that i was fat making a joke out of it and all
00:45:32.980
this shit bro i know you ain't fooling me you might be able to fool everybody else you're not fooling
00:45:39.680
fucking me okay i've lived a lot of my life like that that's why i know how much better it can be by
00:45:47.420
actually taking charge and changing that that's why i dedicate my life to it i can't help the way
00:45:53.520
the reality is dude you know like it is what it is but people are getting people are starting to move
00:46:00.580
back into what's real people are starting to move away from the fucking shit that they know makes no
00:46:05.280
sense and if we want to fix things bro there's plenty you could do i just laid out a whole bunch of
00:46:11.560
shit you know i'm saying like it's not about it's not just about um you know you got to have a
00:46:17.800
platform or you got listen that that's the big that's the that's the mistake that keeps and allows
00:46:25.080
this to continue on you are the platform yes bro we all are and it doesn't matter if you're even on
00:46:30.440
instagram or even have an account or none of this shit it's not what we say it's what we do and how we
00:46:36.720
live it's not even what the fuck i say on this show bro that's not how i'm contributing like people
00:46:41.900
think oh well he's you're talking to millions of people yes i am however here's the reality
00:46:48.420
it's how i live my life every day that's what making the difference exactly
00:46:52.860
you see what i'm saying absolutely bro absolutely so we have to get rid of this mentality that like
00:47:00.500
oh it's just little old me and i don't have the bro you have way more influence than you could
00:47:05.940
possibly ever comprehend think about your kids think about your siblings think about your parents
00:47:12.020
you could inspire bro my dad and my mom my dad lost 40 fucking pounds my mom lost 100 i didn't ask
00:47:20.240
him to fucking do that they just fucking did it my dad doesn't drink anymore you know why because i
00:47:26.000
don't drink anymore you see what i'm saying like bro you inspire people you it may not be everybody
00:47:33.220
does it's not just me it's not just you it's not just these it's everybody and we've lost that
00:47:39.620
and they've made us lose that intentionally through their propagation they want us to think we are the
00:47:47.020
only one that thinks this way they want us to think that we are a bigot or insensitive or something
00:47:54.160
wrong with us because we look at the cover of a of a fitness model that's 500 pounds and we say
00:48:00.000
that's bullshit no it is bullshit they're trying to get us to accept something that is far less than
00:48:08.840
what we could all actually become for the benefit of them they're creating a complacent mediocre
00:48:16.220
mega consumer of technology of drugs of information of fucking food
00:48:25.640
you don't want to be that be the opposite of that and that's if you're personally excellent
00:48:32.280
and you lift yourself out of that fucking bullshit who are they going to sell their shit to
00:48:37.680
that's the real solution so when i say personal excellence is the ultimate rebellion that's what i'm
00:48:44.440
talking about because that ripple effect that you're going to create by getting your your shit
00:48:49.500
together it's going to be massive dude massive and just because you can't see it now because you
00:48:56.240
probably haven't made that many changes go make the changes and come back and tell me in fucking a year
00:49:00.980
how much difference is made for the people around you if you get better other people get better if
00:49:06.520
other people get better other people get better right right eventually that ripples out across
00:49:11.820
where we get enough momentum it's a fucking tsunami yeah for real dude and that's what we need we need a
00:49:17.060
fucking tsunami of personal fucking excellence and responsibility these are the things that made this
00:49:23.700
country great over the course of 246 years these are this country is supposed to be the greatest
00:49:30.820
country in the world it's supposed to be based on one's own individual liberty and responsibility
00:49:36.340
and we as citizens have handed that over to a bunch of people that get very very very wealthy by us
00:49:44.380
living an existence that is less than what we could potentially be and who loses there we do we lose
00:49:53.080
because at the end of your life you're not going to be saying anything other than fuck dude i fucking
00:49:58.460
pissed away my whole life and you ask me how i know because i've had two situations in my life where i nearly
00:50:05.160
fucking died and both times it was one of the worst things best things that ever happened to me
00:50:10.520
worst because it made me realize holy shit i haven't done anything and i got to feel that regret
00:50:16.720
right they misdiagnosed a brain tumor in me in 2011 or 12 and i thought i was going to die for two
00:50:24.980
weeks they told me it was inoperable ended up being a cyst
00:50:27.680
that two weeks bro were the hardest two weeks of my life because i had to sit there and ask myself like
00:50:36.140
what the fuck was the purpose of your life and do you think it's do you think there's any mistake
00:50:40.740
that i've gone on and changed my whole fucking existence based off of that yes and i'm telling
00:50:46.880
you bro you don't want to feel that you don't want to have that feeling of regret at the end of your
00:50:50.780
life that you didn't fucking squeeze every bit of fucking juice out of the opportunity that you had
00:50:55.580
i'll never i i won't like i i will continue to go until i'm dead reality real shit and not a single
00:51:04.400
