the world other times we have real talk real talk is just five to 20 minutes of me giving you some
00:01:12.440
real talk and then we have full length and full length is an interview style format uh similar to
00:01:17.460
what you see all across the internet so depending on the day uh we have different kinds of shows and
00:01:23.560
we do have a fee for the show and the fee is very simple if what we talk about on the show
00:01:29.460
makes an impact on you teaches you something entertains you gives you some sort of new knowledge
00:01:36.660
uh which the q and af shows almost always will um well all the shows will almost well let's be real
00:01:43.080
okay um all i ask guys is that you share the show out man you know uh i don't i don't make myself for
00:01:50.700
sale i don't uh allow these companies to come in and pay me to represent their shit that i don't even
00:01:56.200
use or talk about and i don't want you guys questioning my opinions or beliefs based upon
00:02:02.380
the money that someone else is paying me so i've done this this way for nearly a decade now and basically
00:02:08.780
if i do a good job if dj does a good job if the guys do a good job you learn shit if it makes you
00:02:13.580
laugh it makes you think if it gives you new perspective you think it's important all we ask
00:02:17.860
that you share the show that's it man so when we talk about pay the fee that's what pay the fee means
00:02:22.140
it means share the show that can be conversation with some friends that could be a sharing your story
00:02:29.820
it could i don't however you want to share it just share it man just get the word out because we grow
00:02:34.460
if we do a good job and that's what i like value exchange man if we do good you do good for us
00:02:40.360
that's all i ask that's real yeah i do have a question because i've had a i've had this question
00:02:44.980
come up a few times uh because we got a lot of new listeners right now just getting started on
00:02:50.240
youtube it's fucking awesome but they're asking me they're like dude like where do i start like
00:02:54.940
should they go back what's your recommendation should they go back to like fucking literally episode
00:02:58.860
one real af is there like an episode that you think would it be a nice you know ease into
00:03:04.380
where we are now what's your take on that you mean in current events for for just the real real af
00:03:10.180
completely so whether that be cti or look dude look man i we're three years in right yeah look on the
00:03:17.500
cti we kind of follow a narrative right like we're following the news cycle so if and i think it's
00:03:24.800
valuable to go back and listen to the older episodes because even though they're not what's going on right
00:03:29.400
here at the moment i think a lot of you guys will see uh that i've been on track the entire time
00:03:34.360
with what's actually going on and i think that's important for people to understand that and
00:03:39.040
establish that credibility because if you don't know that you tune in now and you think the shit
00:03:45.240
i'm saying is crazy right but the track record is impeccable it just is and so you know cti is a
00:03:52.540
speculative show it's a humor-based show but it's also an informative show and i think if you go back
00:03:58.580
and listen to the old shows you're going to learn a lot about how we got to here which will help you
00:04:02.800
understand here so i think there's value in that for sure uh the q a f episodes the real talks the
00:04:08.060
full length those do not have an expiration date of any kind so you could drop you can get value from
00:04:13.700
any of those shows at any time um but i think you know just pick up right where we are if you want
00:04:20.560
just follow us along you know that i think that's what's cool about the show is you can just join in
00:04:24.420
right now and start with the most current episode and we're going to keep moving forward
00:04:27.460
um but there's a number of episodes i think that are important to listen to above and beyond many
00:04:34.140
of the other episodes you know episode 208 where i go through the 75 hard program and a live hard
00:04:39.160
program which is actually not only the best but the only true real mental conditioning program that
00:04:45.880
exists that actually fucking works and it's free and i outlined it in that episode 208 another episode
00:04:53.120
i think is important for everybody to listen to is episode 16 which is win the day win the day is an
00:04:58.320
episode that will literally break down my exact process for execution management notice i didn't
00:05:05.440
say time management we talked about execution management how to get shit done and here's the
00:05:10.520
cool thing about that is that that's free too it gives you the exact technique that i've used to build
00:05:16.280
all my companies all my business and everything in my life and by all standards i'm crushing it so
00:05:22.380
those two episodes are two of the episodes i think that are the most important for people to go back
00:05:29.340
and listen to no matter who you are no matter what you are yeah i would go listen to episode 208 and
00:05:34.440
episode 16 uh in their entirety before the start of next year and those two things will help you have
00:05:41.040
a an extremely extremely fucking productive and good year yeah you'll be sprinting yeah for sure
00:05:46.820
for sure speaking of sprinting just want to toot my own motherfucking horn here for a minute
00:05:50.860
today is like what day 29 of uh my 75 hard which i said i wanted to go into the new year sprinting
00:05:59.740
and just so we're clear um i am sprinting yeah i i showed a certain someone my start pictures and
00:06:08.420
current pictures about an hour ago and that certain someone uh was blown the fuck away was he not
00:06:16.640
he absolutely was but it's actually like fucking crazy to see it it's not crazy but it is crazy
00:06:23.180
bro when you you don't think that there was a whole fucking like a year i know it takes motherfuckers a
00:06:29.380
year to get that i know crazy but that's what happens when you do the program right that's how i can tell
00:06:35.020
when people did it right okay when you do it right the change is fucking dramatic yeah it's undeniable i
00:06:41.340
cannot wait to show you guys my before and afters when i complete this program yeah i am firing on all
00:06:47.440
cylinders by the way bro i just left our fucking weekly board meeting burned that motherfucker up
00:06:52.200
like it was fucking amazing bro like like dude i've have like the amount of benefit that comes from that
00:06:58.480
program in terms of how differently and better your brain works is just insane yeah you call it having
00:07:05.780
the power on yeah i do yeah a lot of people like when i posted my instagram people are like like the
00:07:11.240
other day it was funny because i posted that i said the power is back on yeah and and it was like
00:07:16.140
the day without your fucking yeah it was snowing and shit people like oh you guys lost power i'm like
00:07:20.740
no bro like that's my little link to this generator that's my little saying about how this works you
00:07:26.740
know you're most people live with the power off all the time meaning their brains are completely shut
00:07:34.840
down their bodies are completely shut down their belief is shut down their confidence is shut down
00:07:40.220
they're in a very lowly place and that's the power off so when i say the power is back on it means that
00:07:46.400
all my shit is firing at max level i have massive momentum in the right direction my brain is working
00:07:54.320
extremely well i'm sharp i'm crisp i'm coming up with amazing thoughts and amazing concepts and amazing
00:08:01.140
ideas i'm squeezing the most potential out of my capabilities when i say that when i say the power
00:08:06.840
is on that's what what i mean by that yeah absolutely bro you know and so like it usually takes
00:08:11.920
people on 75 hard about like the first fucking fit if you've never done it before the first 20 days
00:08:19.640
are super hard like you have to legit force yourself through because it it's painful like your feet are
00:08:28.180
gonna hurt your body's gonna hurt your sore as fuck you feel like you just get your ass beat every
00:08:33.160
single day that's if you're doing it right yeah okay and you're not counting you know oh stretching as a
00:08:39.420
fucking work i'm talking about fucking two workouts bro and for most people that first 20 days requires an
00:08:48.080
element of force that they're not super comfortable with with doing but that's where all this shit comes from
00:08:56.040
right and then once they force themselves over that first hump and by the way if you read the 75 hard
00:09:01.400
book you know that i break it down into sections and there are multiples of these humps that you're
00:09:06.520
going to have to get over through the program but it's funny because people will get through the first
00:09:10.280
20 days and they think they got the whole program figured out it's like bro you don't even know yet
00:09:14.260
but the point is and the point that people need to understand is that they will feel so fucking good
00:09:21.600
getting through that first three weeks their power starts to come on that's what i'm talking about
00:09:26.800
they start to feel good they start to be proud of themselves just a little bit right but because
00:09:31.340
they've been so not proud of themselves and they've been on such a low level and the power's been off for
00:09:36.880
so long it's like getting a starving person who's been in the desert for 40 fucking days a fucking
00:09:43.640
Vegas buffet bro right like they're like holy shit right but what you have to understand and what most of
00:09:49.560
you need to really grasp because i hear a lot of people are oh i get it i get it i get no you
00:09:53.480
fucking don't get it you just got a taste you just got a taste if you really want to get it you do the
00:10:01.220
whole entire live hard program at the end of that year you will be a completely different human and
00:10:08.380
throughout the 75 hard program you will if you're doing i'm talking about first time people
00:10:14.000
and and honestly if like for me it goes the same way almost every time it's just i continue to level
00:10:20.360
up and like my power on gets stronger and stronger and stronger so much so like i was asked yesterday
00:10:27.960
by a guy he's like well what do you do when you don't feel like doing it and like i laughed i'm like
00:10:34.380
i never feel like doing it right like what are you talking about and like to me in my mind like i laugh
00:10:40.160
because i empathize with where he's at because i used to be that way bro i used to be mystical to me
00:10:47.940
like yeah totally mystifying that people could be so disciplined and regimented and execute with
00:10:55.880
such consistency i couldn't i was not that way so like i get that but dude now i'm so far the other
00:11:03.400
way like like it doesn't matter i don't i don't put stock into how i feel about doing anything
00:11:09.260
anymore like i just fucking do it yeah like there's nothing that feels good about going out when it's
00:11:15.620
minus degrees and doing outdoor cardio that's especially looking around yeah and when the
00:11:21.900
windshield is in fucking minus 27 or whatever it was the only thing good about it is that you can
00:11:29.000
look around and see that nobody else is doing nobody's there and you get a very strong visual
00:11:33.420
representation of you literally widening the gap between you and everybody else i like that that
00:11:41.840
gets me excited but that doesn't make that doesn't make like that's not enough to make me go do it it's
00:11:48.060
it's a discipline that i've developed over years and really the last three or four years this isn't
00:11:53.940
years of decades this is just me doing the lip doing exactly what i tell you to do
00:11:58.340
do the live hard program once a year every year for your entire life bro and your life
00:12:04.760
will be a fucking big fat w at the end period and um i don't know man i feel fucking good though
00:12:12.560
that's good yeah i know sound good that's what i'm saying yeah i think there's also too there's
00:12:17.460
another piece man that i don't know if we touch a lot real talk though like how fucking crazy
00:12:21.480
are those pictures it's fucking insane it's not even four weeks i would a normal person would
00:12:27.440
probably like there's okay like i could post those right now i could post those right now
00:12:31.720
and be like day one and day 75 and motherfuckers were freaked the fuck out for sure and i have been
00:12:37.500
doing i have not doing anything drastic i've been i haven't run once i fucking walk when i do i not do
00:12:45.740
i walk with intent yeah we're not fucking like just no i'm not fucking i'm not this is not a casual
00:12:50.540
stroll like sunday stroll i'm walking at a quick pace it's on the borderline of a jog it's brisk
00:12:56.820
yes a brisk walk we are sweating when we are done we are yeah every time even it's cold yeah so
00:13:04.320
there's there's an intent there and i'm training with intent my workouts have been good you know
00:13:09.960
i'm able like i said that's why i started it because i'm finally able to train again yeah
00:13:13.820
but i mean like dude zero compromise just looks a lot different yeah and what i showed you today
00:13:20.900
that's zero compromise like i haven't fucking i i haven't even fucking looked at something that
00:13:27.780
wasn't supposed to go in my mouth bro not even fucking looked at you know what i'm saying yeah
00:13:32.060
like when i talk about perfect intent i'm talking about perfect fucking execution and intent and that's
00:13:40.840
the difference between that result and the result of any sort of compromise i believe is three or four
00:13:48.720
times greater over the same course of time i think you get three or four times the results by not
00:13:54.840
compromising at all and going full bore intent than you would if you just half-assed any of it yeah and
00:14:01.500
and dude you know that's why when i show you those pictures like i don't want to show anybody because
00:14:05.860
but i showed them to you and you're like holy fuck yeah it's because dude i i'm
00:14:10.540
i needed this program to get back online bro i spent a year fucking sucking like i spent a year
00:14:17.880
not being able to use my bro i couldn't even wipe my own fucking ass bro i'm having to figure out how
00:14:22.020
to wipe my ass with my left hand it's hard bro yeah and it's messy like bro it sucked like dude i'm
00:14:28.100
just saying like you're not used to it yeah real talk man i ain't fucking shame like it's weird
00:14:32.220
and i ain't asking nobody to do it you know what i mean like right you don't realize how i guess i
00:14:38.940
didn't realize it was kind of how good you had it it's kind of cool that it happened to my dominant
00:14:43.680
hand because it taught me a lot of perspective bro fuck yeah but but dude the mental struggle
00:14:48.980
that i had to go through an entire year with no training when training's been a cornerstone of my
00:14:52.940
life for a long time you know getting off the lexa pro after 11 years like i went through a fucking
00:14:58.840
hard hard so much hard shit happened to me this last year bro most of you don't like i don't bitch
00:15:05.600
but like if i did the list would be long right and i needed the program so the day i felt able to
00:15:13.460
fucking go i fucking went and here we are 25 i'm on day 29 today and i feel like a fucking different
00:15:21.500
human i am a different human period and uh what about the karmic response of this
00:15:27.560
of just doing the live heart program like what are you telling the universe right now you know i'm
00:15:32.600

00:16:37.260
it ain't fun and and and and and and that's coming from someone who lived most of his life that way
00:16:42.820
i was a fat kid i was a fat teenager i was a fat adult for most of my life i didn't figure this out
00:16:49.360
until i was in my late 30s so fucking figure it out now bro wherever the fuck you're at because
00:16:54.320
i'm telling you your life gets a lot fucking better in every single way thanks well guys let's get into
00:17:01.660
these uh any question number one any what should be the frequency uh and how important are having
00:17:10.200
meetings with your team or even just breaking down to departments right now i do about once a month
00:17:16.300
full company meeting and outside of that my team can come to me whenever they need to about
00:17:21.440
whatever they need to sort of open door policy and shit gets done but i feel like every day i'm bracing
00:17:26.700
myself for a different world issue that i have to face is the once a month meetings is is that do i
00:17:33.920
need to increase the frequencies dude that's the fucking job bro that's what it is like you're a
00:17:40.800
problem solver man like get the fuck out of bed i get out of bed every day and and like dude here's
00:17:45.920
the difference between me having a great day and having a shitty day me having a great day is i
00:17:50.660
get out of bed and i'm like fuck i wonder what fucking shit's gonna come my way today and i get
00:17:56.280
anxious and i get like filled with anxiety and i like all like i get so much anxiety when i get out
00:18:02.220
of bed that way that i'm like like i shake them i almost get like that shaky feeling like that you can
00:18:07.900
kind of get like where you get next to the edge of a building that's how much uh or edge of a roof or
00:18:13.500
something you know i'm saying i i get so much anxiety when i think that okay and as an entrepreneur
00:18:19.780
as a business owner as a manager as a leader whatever it is you're doing if you think that
00:18:26.700
and you get out of bed that way your whole day is going to be hard your whole because you're going
00:18:32.400
to look at every single thing as evidence as to what you thought was going to happen so you get
00:18:39.100
out of bed and you're saying fuck i don't want to have these i wonder what the fuck's going to come
00:18:43.740
my way today and then you know steve brings you this little bitty problem that's real little
00:18:49.200
and he brings it to you and then all of a sudden because you're already like on the fucking alert
00:18:53.880
it becomes it goes from little problem to fucking meltdown yeah see i knew it bro fuck i can't ever
00:19:00.620
get a breath fuck i'm just trying to get through my day and by the way ask me how i know this
00:19:05.740
because this happens to me too nobody is perfect on this i do not have this always figured out
00:19:12.000
there are times where i am extremely difficult to work for and work with because i have days like
00:19:19.000
this do i not no okay so i'm i'm totally honest yes and in those days are the days where i pack my
00:19:27.480
shit up and i go the fuck home okay and what i've learned and i do this most of the time now there
00:19:33.940
are days where i still fall into that old trap because being an entrepreneur is hard bro it's
00:19:38.860
almost like being literally abused all the time because you are you are constantly called and put
00:19:45.900
in positions to solve problems that really you personally actually didn't cause okay yeah so you
00:19:53.440
feel like the entire world is closing in on you you see what i'm saying and it's it's fucking hard
00:19:59.920
that's why entrepreneurs only make up fucking seven percent of the population and successful
00:20:05.540
entrepreneurs make up less than one percent it's hard it's a hard fucking job bro these these minions
00:20:11.740
that fucking glorified on the internet are lying they don't know what the fuck they're talking about
00:20:15.300
and if they do tell you that it's all this shit then ask to see their real business because i'm betting
00:20:20.700
that they do not have one right all right so the the difference between my days being great and my days
00:20:28.680
being bad are 100 related to how i get the fuck out of bed okay when i get out of the bed and i'm
00:20:35.140
like bro i'm a fucking man i'm the baddest motherfucker on this planet there's not a the
00:20:40.040
reason that i am who i am is because all these fucking people are going to bring me these problems
00:20:44.160
today and i'm going to know the fucking answer i'm gonna fix this shit dude when i get out of bed
00:20:47.840
like that now it's like bring me your shit motherfucker yeah because i'm the fucking man and i'll
00:20:52.560
fucking make it right and i now all of a sudden i've taken an attitude of being a victim
00:20:56.920
or being on the response or reactive to understanding that's just my role and i'm
00:21:03.520
fucking great at it and that's why i am who the fuck i am now can you imagine the difference
00:21:08.140
of how the day turns out when you get out that way versus the way i described first it's a huge
00:21:14.240
massive difference bro and this massive difference will literally dictate more about the quality of
00:21:20.800
your life than anything else it's the perspective that you choose to take so for anybody out there
00:21:26.100
who is feeling frustrated with the amount of bullshit that has pushed their way understand
00:21:31.720
that you are just looking at it through the wrong lenses if you look at it through the right lens and
00:21:37.660
you say i'm the fucking man bro i'm gonna handle this shit not only am i gonna handle it i'm gonna
00:21:42.060
handle it so fucking good that this person can never even bring me the problem again because i'm
00:21:45.920
gonna teach them how to fucking avoid it now you're in a position of power and it's nothing has
00:21:51.040
changed other than your own perspective yeah so for any of you out there that struggle with that
00:21:55.160
when you look for problems and you anticipate anxiety see this is a big problem with people's
00:22:01.080
anxiety too a lot of people a lot of people try to go through their day like like they say they
00:22:07.740
make themselves a label right i have bad anxiety okay let's just let's just say that i got bad anxiety
00:22:13.880
which seems to be everybody saying that now now you have to understand that when you say that and
00:22:21.040
you label that you are creating a jail that you live in because you are telling yourself i am anxious
00:22:29.240
i have anxiety okay and then what you start doing is you start becoming hyper aware to anything
00:22:37.280
that actually creates anxiety and because you're hyper aware to anything that creates anxiety the
00:22:44.880
actual response about the anxiety is amplified okay because you are trying to do something which
00:22:51.260
is literally impossible as an entrepreneur which is to get through your day with no bullshit right
00:22:56.260
all right so you have to change the way that you view it you do not have anxiety you have things
00:23:03.620
that cause anxiety that happen every single day and that's part of your fucking job now if you look
00:23:08.640
at it like that now if you expect there to be some things that are a little bit minorly irritating
00:23:14.280
when they come to you you don't blow them the fuck up you're just like okay cool i got this and this and
00:23:19.060
this so a lot of these things that we tell ourselves that we are can be avoided by understanding that we
00:23:25.500
are setting unrealistic expectations for ourselves a lot of people believe that we should be happy all the
00:23:31.760
time and so when they make their main goal quote unquote happiness they're ultra sensitive to
00:23:39.220
anything that creates unhappiness that happens to them in their life okay we are not as humans
00:23:45.960
supposed to be happy all the fucking time the only reason that we feel happy is because we have the
00:23:53.240
contrast of things that make us unhappy okay if you were happy all the time you wouldn't know what
00:23:58.500
happy feels like because it would be the baseline it would be like sitting in a hot tub you get in
00:24:04.380
the hot tub at first motherfuckers hot sit in the hot tub for 20 minutes it doesn't feel hot anymore
00:24:08.880
right so if you had happiness all the time that's what it would do to you as well so you have to
00:24:13.540
appreciate the things that provide the perspective so that you can enjoy the things that you actually
00:24:18.900
want and when we set these unrealistic expectations up for ourselves like i'm going to try to get through
00:24:24.220
this day without any anxiety bro you're going to fail 100 of the time because that's impossible
00:24:30.360
especially in entrepreneurship and business and management and leadership it's impossible can't
00:24:34.820
happen okay so you have to accept that that's where we are and when you accept the realistic
00:24:40.400
expectations and instead look at it and say i'm going to have some issues today that need my attention
00:24:44.480
it's no big deal it's part of what i get paid the big bucks to do yeah now all of a sudden you're not
00:24:48.540
anxious all the time you're just reacting to the fucking situations as they occur you're allowed you're
00:24:53.000
allowing the things to come to you and then you're solving them and that creates a much better
00:24:57.960
existence than labeling yourself as i have anxiety disorder when you really don't you're just repeating
00:25:04.640
some shit that you heard off the fucking internet and then you're going through your entire life
00:25:08.420
trying to avoid anxiety when that's impossible and every time you fucking come across it you
00:25:13.120
hyper react and it makes you believe that you have some sort of problem when in reality
00:25:16.900
you're just experiencing life and thinking you can get around the shit that's going to be irritating
00:25:21.560
you're choosing to do yes it's listen man i've taught a lot about this okay this is what i found
00:25:28.520
yeah so to answer the question has nothing to do with the frequency no bro it's expectations and
00:25:35.560
perspective that's what it is those two things will change your entire life now to answer the question
00:25:40.840
about the meetings um there there there is a fine line to walk with your team or your employees where
00:25:53.460
you meet with them too often or too little okay throughout my career how i've done it is i've always had a once
00:26:03.000
a month all hands company meeting then then i had a once a week uh leadership meeting that's typically
00:26:12.780
how i did now i have nowadays because i have so many things i'm involved in i have a lot of these
00:26:17.420
meetings but i'm just saying when i had one company that's the foundation when i had one company the the
00:26:22.580
format i used that i thought was effective was one meeting a month and that meeting a month
00:26:29.600
was an opportunity for me to talk to the whole company about the vision that we were what we were
00:26:34.740
doing how we were going to do it where i needed everybody to really direction that we needed to
00:26:39.920
paddle and then we also we always had food we always had beer we always made it a fun time
00:26:45.000
and bro that's one like dude the company meetings here even to this day are some of the favorite
00:26:51.840
things that anybody likes to do and it's on a sunday when everybody wants to be fucking home
00:26:56.260
you know what i'm saying so we did that once a month and and and by the way when you're small
00:27:02.060
these companies these meetings are fucking way more fun because you're able to really connect with
00:27:07.080
people you're able to really build bonds and friendships and relationships over a few beers
00:27:11.240
etc you know what i'm saying it's fun i miss those times like i don't get to do that anymore
00:27:16.540
like in fact you guys we should be doing that with these guys here in this room and you know the
00:27:21.560
other six guys on the team and fucking you know be doing that because that shit is fun as fuck
00:27:27.300
then the other thing i would do is i would have monday morning meetings with my management team my
00:27:33.420
leadership team and we would we would take them the messaging of the month and then we would
00:27:39.700
folk hyper focus in uh during those weekly meetings and then during the weekly meetings you know we also
00:27:45.480
had uh the time and the ability to solve all the little things that were happening as we went
00:27:51.420
so basically it's five meetings a month it's one big meeting and then four smaller meetings once a
00:27:58.740
week that's that's the format i did when we had just one company and actually that's still the
00:28:03.660
format that we use for the most part um i just do more because i have multiple projects going on
00:28:10.400
yeah for sure i love it but either way whether you have a thousand it's perception and it's your
00:28:16.160
choice of how you're choosing to have to tackle the shit well yeah bro like if you you can't have an
00:28:21.240
unrealistic expectation about running a company dude yeah like if you have people people are
00:28:27.160
gonna fuck shit up like that's it like and and they're gonna not only that bro they're gonna have
00:28:33.740
they're gonna have issues they're gonna have ups and downs and they're gonna have relationships
00:28:38.380
personal life yeah dude and like part of being a really good operator is is dude honestly like
00:28:47.920
kind of being a therapist for people too you know what i'm saying like not say like you don't want
00:28:52.700
to be one of these people who runs a company it's like yeah well fuck that's not my fucking problem
00:28:56.580
do your fucking job those people will hate you okay so you have to give them they're coming to you for
00:29:02.320
some fucking leadership bro do you not think that if they bring you something that maybe they need
00:29:06.940
some help with and you help them with that they're actually going to respect you more as a leader and
00:29:11.200
understand that you have their best interests in mind because you just gave them some good advice
00:29:14.300
about their family or their relationship or their this or their that makes them more productive
00:29:17.760
like bro they're coming to you because they trust you to give them good advice if you if you fucking
00:29:23.280
throw that out the window because you want to pretend like some sort of badass ceo you're missing a great
00:29:28.740
opportunity to really bond with your team yeah you know absolutely bro absolutely uh any question
00:29:35.340
number two uh you've you've i want to get away from saying most people uh and i actually like your
00:29:42.400
terminology you say peasants okay there's peasantry thinking people minded people right so how do
00:29:48.380
these peasant minded people okay vet and process info and advice versus how highly successful people
00:29:57.400
process vet uh information and advice what's the difference how do they do it how should you do it
00:30:04.960
um and how does that work does it give context on what information be anything i mean i'm you know
00:30:11.560
information on life advice i i think i think you know i think let's say let's just use the term you know
00:30:20.560
let me fuck dude like peasant thinking okay is they see someone that they believe to be potentially
00:30:28.740
credible they don't really look beyond that they don't look into it at all and they just hear what they
00:30:34.380
say at surface level and they think about it for a second they think about like you know it's
00:30:41.240
probably true and then they do nothing with it you know they just they're just kind of like it's in
00:30:46.620
one year out the other year there's no real depth of processing of the thought there's no looking
00:30:51.400
into the vetting at all they just they just hear it yeah you know and and sometimes that sticks
00:30:56.400
and then they'll go to the bar with their buddies or you know whoever and they'll try to repeat
00:31:01.000
some of this shit you know they don't really understand it at all right and then i think
00:31:06.280
like champion level thinking because that's what we're we're talking about the two distinct what we
00:31:11.460
have the bottom which is peasant thinking we have champion thinking right champion thinking how champions
00:31:17.800
process information is a champion will read a 400 page book for one fucking thought a champion will
00:31:26.380
will invest hours and hours and hours and hours to get one little nugget that will make them better
00:31:32.660
okay when they vet people and who they should listen to they will look at them and really truly ask
00:31:40.060
themselves is this someone who is credible are they who they say they are do they know about what it
00:31:47.160
is that they're trying to tell me have they done this in real life have these things that they are
00:31:52.940
trying to teach worked for them or are they just full of shit all right so champions are very much so
00:32:00.180
very very closed off to who they will accept information from but they are very open about
00:32:08.680
the little bits and pieces of data that can translate into productivity for themselves so
00:32:14.920
i the amount of people that put information that i take seriously is very low but how much i get out
00:32:23.800
of each piece of those information is much higher because i look for one or two thoughts that could
00:32:29.980
could change what it is that i'm doing right i also think that champion people they read a lot okay
00:32:37.620
there's people out there that will say oh reading is a waste of time you're a fucking idiot if you
00:32:42.300
really think that you need real life experience and you need other people's life experience if you
00:32:48.980
can learn from other people's life experience and you can learn what worked what didn't work what to
00:32:53.840
avoid you are saving yourself years of pounding your head on the fucking wall and if i can learn one or
00:33:01.340
two bits of information from someone that saves me a year of my life what does that work right okay so
00:33:08.780
like when i look at let's for example say like we have arate syndicate and it's fucking it's not
00:33:15.580
cheap okay it's not expensive but it's not cheap it's 400 bucks a month for the basic membership to
00:33:21.360
be in it now a lot of people listening will say 400 a month how the fuck do i do you should make it
00:33:28.200
happen bro because on every other motherfucking call that we have there is one sentence or two sentences
00:33:34.740
that will make you a million times that if you went out and applied it on every fucking call on every
00:33:41.400
fucking call at every event at every bro every single time that we get on the fucking phone or on
00:33:50.180
the screen or go and do an event or whatever there is a piece of data i am 100 confident in will make
00:33:57.440
you a hundred x your entire yearly membership and that happens every single week and so champion
00:34:03.600
people fucking value that they look at that and they say 400 a month to fucking get data that's
00:34:09.580
gonna fucking make me millions of dollars over the course bro that's fucking free i'm gonna figure
00:34:14.620
that the fuck out that's it that's all you want is 400 yes that's how champions think how fucking
00:34:19.400
peasants think is 400 bucks a month bro i could drive a fucking i could drive a fucking nicer car for that
00:34:27.140
or i could fucking you know blah blah i could take my girl out to a nicer on a weekend trip like they
00:34:32.880
they think very short term and they don't understand to put a price on actual data right like i will read
00:34:39.580
an entire fucking book bro for one concept and i will know it and i will fucking put it in my phone
00:34:45.800
and i will say that's it that's it right okay and then everything else that i get which i'll probably
00:34:50.960
usually get like 10 things from everything i read i'm like fucking bonus awesome cool
00:34:56.620
was that worth my because i'm a slow reader it takes me 10 hours to read a whole book okay
00:35:01.500
was that worth my 10 hours if it made me fucking you know and in my case bro one of these concepts
00:35:08.220
will not make me a million dollars it's gonna make me tens of millions right because we're operating at
00:35:12.600
a large scale so was that 10 hours worth tens of millions because of what the fuck i just learned
00:35:17.160
from that yeah absolutely right so there that's the difference that's the difference in how you view
00:35:22.680
information uh versus you know how how basic you know peasant thinking works yeah so so so so you're
00:35:30.520
saying first of all you got to have the input right and champion level people are putting a shit ton of
00:35:36.320
input into this process but more importantly you got to do something with it well it's not just it's
00:35:40.760
not just input bro it's vetted qualified input like i'm not fucking paying attention to these knuckleheads
00:35:45.560
uh you know on on the internet who who i know for sure haven't built real shit right like that's a big
00:35:52.440
mistake you know if you if you scroll through instagram bro you'll find no shortage of people
00:35:57.780
who have all this advice to give about everything right it's about relationships it's about fucking
00:36:03.600
business it's about this and it's like every motherfucker out there is some sort of expert in
00:36:08.120
something but when you look at most of their lives their lives do not reflect that
00:36:11.580
okay so i'm not i'm not valuing information for people who haven't used that same information to
00:36:17.920
build real things right it makes sense to me i know i know it does but it makes sense to anybody
00:36:23.960
and the message here for those of you who watch and who are out there giving advice
00:36:28.300
is to go out and build something before you start preaching and teaching about it go out and build
00:36:34.500
something of relevance and if you want to be taken seriously because a lot of people will complain
00:36:39.060
man i have so much i have such a hard time getting traffic on my you know my business podcast well
00:36:44.780
yeah it's because you don't fucking own a business that's actually visible for anybody that they can
00:36:50.000
order from and experience and see they think you're full of shit bro that's why they're not listening
00:36:54.720
so build something then teach it it's not the other way around yeah i love it but i think that's a big
00:37:01.240
deal bro i think that's a big difference between people who are of champion mindset and people who
00:37:06.620
aren't they will vet and when once they vet and they allow the fewer amount of people to give them
00:37:11.680
information they take the information much more seriously and value it at a higher regard and
00:37:16.840
actually put it into play whereas you know the peasant thinking those people will hear shit and they
00:37:23.220
won't do anything with it other than repeat it at a fucking get together with their homies right
00:37:26.780
you know like because they want to seem smart in the moment
00:37:28.960
dude at the end of the day it's this the results tell the fucking story that is it you're either
00:37:36.260
winning or you're fucking losing you either are or you fucking aren't and i want to learn from
00:37:40.440
motherfuckers that are that is it i'm not i'm not even going to listen to someone who isn't i'm not
00:37:45.660
going to listen to someone who is i'm going to kill 2023 i don't give a fuck dude i'm going to
00:37:51.480
talk to the motherfucker who killed 2022 and 21 and 20 and 19 and i'm gonna learn from that
00:37:57.560
motherfucker fucking love it man well guys andy our third and final question question number three
00:38:06.440
andy what's the most recent visualization uh that you have practiced that came into fruition
00:38:13.920
how did you get there man tough question it is because like it it's not it's not easy for me to
00:38:23.140
break that down because there's nothing new that i visualize like i've been visualizing
00:38:27.460
where i'm at for so long yeah and the things i visualize now are not where i'm at there are
00:38:33.540
things that haven't happened yet there's 10 years from now yeah so like my visualization goes into
00:38:38.380
a lot of it you know i have business visualization and then i have personal visualization like i have
00:38:45.100
business visualization about the companies i'm involved in and they all have different goals and
00:38:49.340
i think about where each one of them is going to be and go you know what i'm saying absolutely so
00:38:54.120
so like when i visualize first form and i think about first form um i think about our distribution
00:38:59.960
centers that are going to be all over the globe i think about the network of people who are going to
00:39:04.420
enjoy and use our products and benefit from them and change their entire fucking lives all over the
00:39:09.280
fucking world i think about the massive change that's going to facilitate and culture globally like
00:39:17.880
those are the things i think about and the way i think about those things is i think about them in
00:39:21.760
you know very very real visual settings i think about people gathering i think about groups working
00:39:27.120
together i see people working hard together i see people getting results i see our people in this
00:39:31.820
company growing their careers and i visualize that in many different ways i see i see dc centers and
00:39:37.860
headquarters in in europe i see them in asia i see them in the middle east i see them in south america
00:39:43.180
you know what i'm saying absolutely like i see all of that shit and then uh you know personally like
00:39:48.440
you know i i you know i have some personal goals like i think a lot about like
00:39:54.120
like well i mean there's a number of things i want to do that i visualize like right now like i
00:40:01.340
visualize building uh you know an estate that sits on 300 acres instead of 15 acres okay like i actually
00:40:09.240
want to replicate my entire house and my entire my garage and everything on a big giant piece of
00:40:15.020
property um that's something i visualize something else i visualize like i would like to own a winery
00:40:21.820
in tuscany i think about that a lot i think about sitting out on the fucking patio at this winery you
00:40:27.180
know the old world stone like you know the the fucking the whole uh you know ambiance of everything
00:40:34.620
i think about those things like i would like to enjoy a little bit of life you know so i have
00:40:39.420
some things that i visualize there but you know none of that shit like when you say what have i
00:40:46.420
visualized most recently that's come to fruition well i think you know the reality is um it's probably
00:40:52.380
the last 29 days where i said dude i want to get my fucking shit turned back on i want to be backward
00:40:56.860
the fuck i was mentally i want to be finely tuned i want to be sprinting into 23 and if you remember i
00:41:02.220
made a story saying that hey i'm starting 75 hard tomorrow because when when 2023 comes around i want
00:41:08.140
to be running full speed well here i am 29 fucking days later and i'm running full speed yeah three
00:41:14.220
four days away from the new year yeah and while everybody else is waking up on fucking uh january
00:41:19.500
1st with shit in their eyes and you know a big fat belly and fucking feeling like shit and like trying to
00:41:25.260
like you know oh fuck it's finally here finally time to get to work uh i'll already be at full momentum
00:41:32.140
you know what i'm saying so like you know i'm always visualizing yeah like we're building these
00:41:38.140
buildings across the street um those are things i visualized years ago that are happening now you
00:41:44.380
see what i'm saying right right so like i i don't know like i'm always constantly in a process of seeing
00:41:49.820
what i want and then having it materialize yeah and so i think it's important to constantly
00:41:55.020
be in that process you know a lot of people they stop growing because they stop thinking about
00:41:59.420
things down the line they get to a point where they're comfortable they got a nice car they got
00:42:02.860
a nice house they can go to the lake house for the weekend or whatever they do and they stop thinking
00:42:08.220
of anything past that and before they know it they're in crisis mode because they have stopped
00:42:12.700
growing and everybody else who is continuing to grow has come up right on them or passed them by
00:42:17.180
right so i think it's important to always be going like it's always important to move forward
00:42:22.460
because the minute you stop moving forward is the minute that everybody else catches up because
00:42:26.620
people don't understand that there is no maintaining you when it comes to business when it comes to
00:42:31.820
growing when it comes to progressing life there is no pause there is forward and backwards and people
00:42:38.460
say well how is there not a pause i can i can pause right here for the next three years and stay right
00:42:43.100
at you know ten million dollars in sales yeah you can but here's the problem everybody else behind you
00:42:49.980
is continuing to push and so when the scale continues to slide forward and you don't move
00:42:55.180
on the scale you'll quickly find yourself at the back of the line does that make sense because two
00:43:00.620
million dollars that's the minimum now you know that's right everybody else is doing 30 and you're
00:43:04.940
doing 10 because you thought it was good enough and you thought you could hit pause now all of a sudden
00:43:08.940
you're virtually out of business and this goes for every area of life dude if you're not working to improve
00:43:14.700
the the whole entire scale is sliding and it might be sliding at a much slower pace than what you could
00:43:21.820
grow at but when you stop trying to grow now we're in a situation where that scale is sliding faster
00:43:27.020
than you're moving and that means you're you're naturally and organically moving to the left of
00:43:30.940
the scale which is the back end of the scale you don't want to be on yeah so there is no pause there is
00:43:36.460
no maintaining it's forward or backwards if you're not moving forward you are by default moving backwards
00:43:41.820
because of the the way that the scale slides yeah so you didn't make the rules bro i didn't make them
00:43:46.940
yeah it's just reality bro no like all your competitors the people you compete with the
00:43:51.180
companies you compete with they're not hitting pause right not a single one of them bro so how
00:43:55.820
the fuck do you think your pause is going to beat their go it's not going to happen no so so it's
00:44:01.580
important to continue to progress it's important to not allow yourself to get too comfortable i'm not
00:44:06.620
saying you can't have a day or i'm not saying you can't have a week once in a while where you relax
00:44:10.940
and enjoy all the fruits of what you've done i don't do that but you can if you want i'm not
00:44:17.580
saying it's wrong i'm just saying you don't want to do it for too long yeah like i have a rule with
00:44:21.340
myself i don't go more than two days off of off of like my my routine or my vibe all right like if
00:44:28.700
i'm going to take a break it's going to be for two days that's it because two days i can still easily
00:44:33.420
get back into the rhythm i even told you this about you because you just finished 75 hard in phase one
00:44:39.020
i said look dude it's okay to have a day it's okay to have another day but it ain't okay to have
00:44:44.220
three days in a row no three days in a row it's going to start a new habit the wrong direction yep
00:44:48.860
so that quick yeah so two days for me is the max i will allow myself to really like
00:44:54.940
chill you know what i'm saying and i know that sounds extreme but i want extreme results so that's
00:44:59.900
that's what the fuck i do yeah that's that's what fucking fireman guys andy that's three that's
00:45:08.460
