What is up guys, it's Andy Purcell and this is the show for the realists say goodbye to
00:00:20.800
the lies, the fakeness and delusions of modern society and welcome to motherfucking reality.
00:00:24.960
Guys, today we have Q and AF, that's where we do Q and A.
00:00:30.000
You can submit your questions to, guys email those questions in to askandy at andyfasella.com
00:00:37.440
and I know most of you guys listen on audio platforms but if you go on YouTube and you
00:00:42.920
watch the video, which more and more people are doing, that's pretty cool, you can drop
00:00:48.320
your questions in the comments on the Q and AF episodes and we'll dig some of the questions
00:00:54.100
This is your first time joining, we have multiple formats of the show, that's how the show works.
00:00:58.100
So today you're going to hear Q and AF, next time you may hear something else and the
00:01:03.260
something else could be CTI, which is Cruise the Internet, that's sort of the news show
00:01:09.400
We talk about what's going on in the world, the current events, we throw some headlines
00:01:12.320
up on the screen, we talk about what's going on and then we make fun of it.
00:01:17.820
And then we talk about how we could potentially be a solution to the problems going on in the
00:01:22.180
Other times we have Real Talk, Real Talk, I'm going to get way more into this year, that's
00:01:26.940
one of my main priorities for this show is to do a Real Talk every week, that's something
00:01:34.000
That is just 5 to 20 minutes of some practical advice or some big picture concepts that I think
00:01:41.400
And then we have Full Length, we're also going to do a lot more Full Length episodes.
00:01:44.820
Full Length episodes are Full Length with the girth.
00:02:08.300
So, Full Length is just like what you're used to seeing on most podcasts, it's just a bunch
00:02:18.580
So, we do have a fee for the show and when I say pay the fee, it doesn't mean send me
00:02:22.640
Although, I do appreciate when you support certain businesses that I may or may not be involved
00:02:33.720
But mainly, guys, I just want you to share the show.
00:02:39.480
And by the way, if you didn't get any value out of the show, don't fucking share it.
00:02:50.280
If you thought it was not a waste of time, I ask that you pay the fee.
00:02:56.260
And that's what I mean by that is share the show.
00:02:59.760
We've been able to maintain a very, very, very high-ranked podcast for nearly a decade
00:03:07.540
And if I do good, just give us a little salad by helping us get it out there.
00:03:26.280
Somebody asked the other day about that right there in your hand.
00:03:33.320
Like, why do you drink the Fiji over the four bottles of the real AF water?
00:03:59.840
So, my business partner, you know, every Saturday or Sunday, he carries, like, three
00:04:07.160
And then, basically, over the course of the week, I drink them all.
00:04:26.780
But what I like about this is if I drink one of these during the show, I can know...
00:04:33.380
Exactly the amount of water that I've gotten in during the show.
00:04:43.900
So, like, you know, I definitely should probably stock the cooler for Chris once in a
00:04:49.220
So, but, you know, that's the story on the Fiji, man.
00:04:58.640
I'll go up there and just chill with him for, like, 15, 20 minutes.
00:05:01.920
And, like, I always leave, like, learning something that, like, I never even would have
00:05:31.400
So, like, we played the same positions on both sides of the ball.
00:05:36.500
So, it was like, you know, when you're young, that's like, fuck this guy.
00:05:41.680
And then, as school went through, and we got to be buddies and shit, you know, it, I
00:05:48.720
And so, we just came friends through, through that.
00:05:53.360
We're like, man, you know, this college shit fucking kind of sucks.
00:06:05.980
I mean, there's a lot to that story, I could tell.
00:06:07.640
Now, do you think that your relationship with him is, like, do you think that's an outlier?
00:06:14.000
Like, do you think many business friendship relationships like that can work or do work?
00:06:18.460
Or do you think, like, you and Chris are really just, like, fucking.
00:06:21.620
I think what makes Chris and I's partnership work the way it does, which is pretty smooth,
00:06:27.760
I would say less than 1% fucking friction rate, especially at this point in the game,
00:06:35.120
is the fact that I am really good and enjoy doing the things that he hates doing.
00:06:42.300
And he is really good and enjoys doing the things that, that I hate doing.
00:06:48.400
And I think that's important for you guys out there who are, you know,
00:06:51.300
looking at starting a business or getting going.
00:06:53.700
You know, you hear a story like Chris and I's, and it makes, you know,
00:06:59.300
everybody wants to, like, get rich and successful with their friends, right?
00:07:04.020
Like, fuck, dude, I want all my friends to be successful.
00:07:07.020
I want all of you to be successful, all of you guys.
00:07:10.000
And, you know, when it comes to picking partners in the beginning of a business,
00:07:18.560
I think it's important to recognize, you need, you need, you can't have
00:07:23.120
two or three people that want the same role, right?
00:07:27.680
You know, like on a football team, bro, there's a starting quarterback, right?
00:07:32.320
So if everybody wants to be quarterback, you're going to constantly have this shit.
00:07:37.480
And I think the important thing when it comes to choosing a partner is that they have to
00:07:43.600
actually bring something to the table that you do not have.
00:07:48.220
Meaning could be skills, could be like what I just said, where he is good at one thing.
00:07:55.720
Now, in the beginning, we didn't know because we were, none of us,
00:08:01.260
In the beginning, it was just like most people, Hey, I want to start a business with my friend.
00:08:05.640
That's the, that's like, I didn't know that shit when we started it.
00:08:12.540
And he figured out what he was good at and enjoy it.
00:08:14.360
And it was the things that we, both of us just so happened to do that.
00:08:19.860
So like, we did get a little bit lucky in that regard.
00:08:22.280
Um, and then we also had a lot of conversations where, you know, Hey, we need someone to be this role.
00:08:31.340
And like, you know, understood that it was, there's no ego involved.
00:08:38.080
And, um, I think most people, you know, they just want to have their friend with them and they don't understand how to pick a true partner.
00:08:45.960
Like a true partner should bring something that you don't have.
00:08:50.080
They should bring a skillset that you don't have, or they should bring a resource that you don't have, which could be money.
00:08:57.600
Having a, a financial partner in a business is a very smart and normal thing to do if you don't have the money.
00:09:08.700
And like over the course of high school, bro, like those jobs that I talk about, Peyton stripes on parking lots and shit, we did those together.
00:09:14.820
So like, we both, you know, we kind of, we knew how to work together.
00:09:19.640
It's almost like out of the competition, there was this genuine friendship.
00:09:25.320
I mean, him and Sal and we're to, to me, like, we're all three brothers.
00:09:30.160
Like, that's, that's what people fail to understand.
00:09:35.640
So, you know, there's a lesson in that for you guys starting a business, you know, instead of three, you'll get four today.
00:09:43.260
So, uh, you know, pick a partner that brings something to the table, not just because they're your friend, they're your friend.
00:09:48.460
Cause it sounds great with your friend, but usually what happens that I've seen with, uh, young partnerships is that, you know, everybody wants to like glorify the fucking face or the CEO role.
00:10:03.720
If you don't have to take it, like it fucking sucks.
00:10:06.040
Like you get all the blame, you get all the fucking focus, you get all the spotlight for every single mistake.
00:10:11.980
Like anytime anything gets fucked up, it's on you.
00:10:17.500
Chris is flying every week to fucking chiefs games and shit.
00:10:19.440
I'm just saying, I'm just saying like people are like, how come Chris isn't more visible?
00:10:27.540
But you know, that's part of my job and that's, that's not his job.
00:10:34.380
And, um, you know, that's, that's how it works.
00:10:43.700
I think that's a good point for a lot of the younger listeners too, dude.
00:10:46.900
Like the guys who are, and when I say young, I mean like young in the game, you know, you're
00:10:51.520
Like people always want to pick a partner that they love because they want to be successful.
00:10:57.600
I think it's a good thing to have a partner that you already are like bonded with.
00:11:01.300
Like I got a question the other day in my DM and the dude was like, uh, actually he
00:11:06.860
I, this guy, this, this, this guy, uh, text me.
00:11:11.180
I don't know how he got my number, but he's like, Hey man, uh, Oh, actually I do.
00:11:17.020
He made, he, he did something for us a long time ago, uh, which was really fucking cool.
00:11:22.240
And I remember we connected then now that I'm thinking about it.
00:11:24.900
So he texts me and he's like, Hey man, uh, you know, he's like, what do you do when it
00:11:31.620
like you're working with your, with your family?
00:11:34.240
Cause he works with his brother and he's like, what do you do when you work with your brother?
00:11:37.760
And like, things get like very volatile and I wanted to tell him the answer, but I just
00:11:42.460
didn't want to, I, I, I don't do, you're not going to text me at home and we're not doing
00:11:46.880
Um, so, but the answer is bro, if you're listening and here's how you work with them,
00:11:56.180
You, you try, you try to listen, respect and learn and fucking work together.
00:12:00.120
And then about once every three years you beat the fuck out of each other.
00:12:04.300
And then you remember that you shouldn't do that because you're both so fucking sore.
00:12:08.020
And then for the next three years, you remember how much that hurt.
00:12:14.440
And then in another three years, you beat the shit out of each other.
00:12:17.360
And that's what, that's how you fucking do it with your brother.
00:12:30.400
Fucking DJ's first fucking assignment was to break up a fist fight between me and Sal
00:12:34.600
Like, and the crazy thing is like, you hear, you hear the stories.
00:12:38.580
Like he was working with me for like three fucking months, bro.
00:12:44.300
Cause like, it's about, you know, they said it was like every, every three years or so.
00:12:52.900
Oh, you thought we were old dudes talking shit from the glory days.
00:12:58.300
Cause I, cause I would ask him, like, when was the last one?
00:13:00.100
Nobody could really do like, Oh, it's been, I'm like, all right.
00:13:04.060
It's like fucking two grizzly bears in the wild fucking going at it.
00:13:13.380
DJ, DJ stayed over there not knowing what to do.
00:13:17.940
That guy just fucking hired me to like, but that's his brother.
00:13:24.380
So anyway, that's how you, that's how you work with family.
00:13:47.380
Cause we were in the midst of training real hard and that fucked me up.
00:13:50.580
I got injured and I couldn't fucking train for like six weeks.
00:14:03.800
Uh, any question number one, Andy, I have been absolutely killing it on my power list.
00:14:11.900
Uh, about a week and a half ago, I had some personal problems come up and I started to
00:14:15.680
slip while I'm still dealing with these problems.
00:14:18.700
I feel like it has become an excuse and I'm trying to force myself back into
00:14:24.080
My question is, how do you keep personal issues from interfering with your momentum?
00:14:28.920
And how can I catch myself when these issues come up?
00:14:33.220
First off, it's great that you're doing that and it's great that you recognize that you're
00:14:38.440
off track because that awareness, I think we talked about a couple of shows ago.
00:14:42.480
Um, that awareness is very, very hard for a lot of people to develop.
00:14:47.080
So it's really good that you have the awareness that you've slipped off track and that's the
00:14:53.540
Like you, you're used to seeing the wins and now all of a sudden you got six losses in a
00:15:06.420
Cause that's a big deal that most people never really fucking get.
00:15:09.760
Uh, but really dude, the way to look at these kinds of things and how I look at them are
00:15:15.200
that when I'm going through a hard personal time and I have hard times to guys, like, you
00:15:20.760
know, my life is really fucking, you know, like people think, Oh, because I'm at a certain
00:15:30.040
It's, it's just as hard as it is for you in a different way.
00:15:35.120
Like what you're, you guys are out here trying to build something and you're trying to get
00:15:38.120
it going and maybe you're not like totally killing it yet.
00:15:41.420
Bro, you have to understand I'm in that same phase because now I'm trying to do something
00:15:47.520
that's like really most people would say it was impossible.
00:15:55.320
So it's, I'm fighting that same fight that you're fighting.
00:16:00.080
And so when these things happen and things get hard and then personal things happen on
00:16:03.920
top of it, I actually look at my tasks getting done as part of the way to work through the
00:16:13.960
So like when you're emotionally agitated and you're highly disturbed and you're frustrated
00:16:23.980
What brings you back to a place of feeling less anxious, less frustrated, you know, less
00:16:30.620
angry is actually finding some sort of order in your day.
00:16:34.820
And if you can turn to the powerless tasks as a way, sort of therapy to work through the personal
00:16:42.860
problems or at least allow you to manage them, I find that the personal problems, the solutions
00:16:48.160
to them sort of reveal themselves through the process, if that makes sense.
00:16:53.100
So I think for me, uh, and I, I think this is common amongst most of the people I talk to who are very
00:17:00.800
successful, they use their, their tasks that they would know their normal routine or their, their, you
00:17:11.340
And if you don't know what the power list is, you can go back to listen to episode 16 in the real AF feed
00:17:16.920
That one's not on YouTube, but it is on all the audio platforms in the feed.
00:17:21.180
And so if you go back to episode 16 and you listen to it, it'll explain this method that
00:17:28.220
And this method is so important because what it does is it brings order and visual reference
00:17:35.160
to how much momentum you actually have towards the life you're trying to build.
00:17:42.980
Like, and you know, sometimes when you get emotional, you start to like overthink and you start to
00:17:47.260
like start thinking that things are worse than they actually are.
00:17:49.700
And then I'm so frustrated and I'm, you know, I'm fucking at the sky is falling on me because
00:17:56.200
We all have this, this ability to spiral out of control when things happen, referring back
00:18:06.600
And this is also why I like an actual journal and not having it on digital, because if you
00:18:14.640
could go back to your power list, you could flip through the pages and be like, all right,
00:18:24.720
Well, I'm going to start that streak back up right now.
00:18:27.360
And that helps you bring some peace to the whole idea of your world spinning out of control.
00:18:38.780
And so that can kind of start the, the, the, the, the, the, like overcoming process of
00:18:47.120
And so that's, I look at it as an opportunity to calm the seas and keep executing.
00:18:54.720
And, and, and it's, and it seems to work very well for me.
00:19:03.140
Cause you know, you touch on the awareness part.
00:19:06.460
Do you really think it's the lack of awareness that most people have?
00:19:11.840
Or do you think it's, it's, it is the awareness, but just lack of action or, or will to do anything
00:19:19.960
Like, I mean, people know their lives are fucked up.
00:19:22.460
No, I think, I think most people are highly unaware of how much they could actually accomplish.
00:19:34.340
I think they know, like, like, okay, like, look, dude, when I was big, I was 350 pounds.
00:19:42.660
I knew I wasn't, I knew when I went and ate pizza or drank fucking bottle of whiskey and
00:19:52.060
Cause you know, cause I knew it was fucking wrong.
00:19:54.780
So, so I knew that was wrong, but what I was unaware of is how great I actually
00:20:04.880
If I moved away from that shit, you see what I'm saying?
00:20:08.200
And so when I say unawareness, I don't mean like ignorance there, they know something's
00:20:15.020
wrong, but they're not aware enough to know how great things could be if they were to work
00:20:20.080
And in this case, when we're talking about unawareness, this person wouldn't, if you
00:20:26.280
hadn't trained yourself through the tool of the power list, you wouldn't have been aware
00:20:30.480
that you're actually slipping as much as you are with the power list tool.
00:20:34.180
You can go back, you flip through and you could be like, fuck, I got six losses in a
00:20:40.020
That brings awareness right to your brain of exact where that's six days for someone who
00:20:46.120
doesn't have that level of awareness could be six fucking years.
00:20:52.840
So like, dude, it's a, it's a very, very valuable tool.
00:20:58.120
And the reason I give my shit away for free guys, because it actually fucking helps you.
00:21:02.520
So go listen to episode 16, make yourself a power list journal.
00:21:11.520
Lots of people buy it, but you don't have to buy it.
00:21:14.840
I actually, you could use a fucking regular notebook.
00:21:18.000
You go get it fucking Walgreens or wherever it is you shop.
00:21:22.040
Like it's, you could, I did it myself and I actually, I personally still use my original
00:21:33.280
So if you want the journal, the journals on the website, extremely popular.
00:21:38.120
We sell a shit ton of them and people love them.
00:21:49.640
Uh, Andy, question number two, Andy, I just graduated college.
00:21:54.220
I'm 21 years old and I'm about to enter my new career as a financial advisor.
00:21:58.940
This career requires the ultimate trust between my clients and I, what advice do you have for
00:22:04.460
me, uh, to get the older generation to take a shot on me versus a person who's been in the
00:22:12.100
Well, you're going to have to start with the appropriate clientele.
00:22:16.200
Like, look, dude, that's, that's a hard thing to get started in very, very, very high turnover
00:22:24.740
Um, this is probably a good question for Ed Milet because that's the business that he's
00:22:29.400
I don't know what he would actually say to this, but my advice would be, um, to not
00:22:34.840
bullshit about what it is you think, you know, or don't know.
00:22:38.820
As you know, you have regulations that you can't violate, you know, and lying about the
00:22:44.200
shit that you fucking know is probably one of them.
00:22:46.980
Um, especially when it becomes to financial advice.
00:22:50.400
But I think the main thing for you to do is to learn as much as you can, uh, be around
00:22:56.100
the guys in the office and the girls in the office who are really producing, learn as
00:22:59.560
much as you can become as smart as you can and forget about your fucking age.
00:23:05.560
No, no one comes in and says, Hey, I'm 21 years old.
00:23:09.480
They're going to know you're fucking young, bro.
00:23:11.540
But if you're smart and you know the shit and you can explain to them why they need it,
00:23:18.220
A lot of people use their age as an excuse, whether they're too old or they're too young.
00:23:23.900
And the truth of the matter is there's never a right age for fucking anything.
00:23:29.380
Your depth of knowledge, your ability to help them.
00:23:32.320
And if you can display those things, uh, and then also probably because you probably
00:23:37.480
look young, say, Hey, here's my partner, my, at my, at work, who's, you know, 30 years
00:23:44.600
in this, she walks, she makes sure that I do everything right.
00:23:50.600
Because dude, people will take shots on you because they're like, man, this young dude,
00:23:56.780
So like you have, you have to think of it like this because of your age and because of
00:24:02.180
the industry you're in, you have to be fucking twice as good as everybody else.
00:24:06.480
And so figure out what you got to do to learn the people in the office, learn from the people
00:24:10.460
in the office, what skills you need, practice those skills, work on those skills, know this
00:24:15.980
shit better than anybody and then forget about, and then forget about your age and worry about
00:24:23.360
Because here's the thing, dude, that's a big word of mouth referral business.
00:24:27.140
So you can't go in there thinking, Oh, I'm here to sell them some financial products.
00:24:31.620
You need to be going in there thinking, how am I genuinely going to help this family?
00:24:39.680
And if you do that genuinely and you actually help them, those people will tell other people
00:24:45.000
and then you'll start to build a book of business where people really fuck this up is that they
00:24:54.120
They try to sell and then they never build a residual book of business.
00:24:57.700
So, you know, a referred book of business, right?
00:25:03.760
I would work at one case at a time, one family at a time, one person at a time.
00:25:07.120
And funny enough, one of the biggest lessons I talk about in my meetings here in my companies
00:25:12.220
is, Hey, this is a, this is one person at a time.
00:25:16.680
And so if you can learn that game and you can learn how to execute on one person at a
00:25:20.500
time and you can really genuinely solve their problems with a high level of competency and
00:25:24.840
intelligence, your age really isn't going to be a factor.
00:25:29.620
Well, what's your, so, I mean, cause I don't know if you were alluding to this when you
00:25:32.620
first started, but like, I mean, cause I'm, I'm just like thinking here if he's 21, do you,
00:25:37.380
like, would you recommend him maybe to target other 21 year olds, uh, in, in the, in the
00:25:42.540
space that are trying to build wealth or, I mean, like, I mean, what's your take on these
00:25:45.820
young guys that are young and young in business trying to graft at these big sharks?
00:25:50.340
You, you want to, you know, you want the older people who have millions in their bank account,
00:25:56.400
Look, financial planning and I'm not a financial planner.
00:25:59.900
So, but some of my friends are, uh, Ed is, that's what he did.
00:26:04.300
That's what his business was the whole, the whole time.
00:26:10.840
The idea that you, a 21 year old kid does no fucking shit is going to come in and fucking
00:26:15.940
tell me what the fuck I'm going to do with my money when you ain't ever had no fucking
00:26:25.020
So you have to understand that the financial planning business is a long-term play.
00:26:30.620
You are going to work with this family that you just sold as a 21 year old man until you
00:26:36.700
are 50, 60 years old and they're going to grow with you.
00:26:43.320
And that's how you need to be thinking about it.
00:26:45.580
This idea that you're going to, um, you listen, there ain't a 21 year old motherfucker
00:26:58.980
And every single, every single person I know over 40 years old that you think is going
00:27:04.140
to come in and fucking just make you rich in one take is going to laugh in your fucking
00:27:10.080
Cause they, I want someone managing my money who's fucking 60 years old, who's seen fucking
00:27:16.280
everything and is still sharp enough to understand what the fuck is going on now.
00:27:21.820
And who has the connections at the right investments to get me where I need to be.
00:27:33.100
So you're at the beginning level and there's nothing wrong with that.
00:27:36.920
But if you think that you're going to go land sharks and shit, you're not going to be doing
00:27:50.960
I'm going to help them be financially successful.
00:27:55.200
And if you do that and you keep doing that and you keep doing that in 10, 15 years, bro,
00:28:00.860
you're not going to have to worry about fucking money ever again.
00:28:05.540
Now, those of you that might be flat financial planners, you might have another way of doing
00:28:10.880
it, but I'm going to tell you what, what I just told you will fucking work and it'll
00:28:17.140
So forget about the sharks and the fucking whales and all the shit you think this ain't
00:28:45.120
There's a fucking scene in boiler room where they're all fucking talking about how they're
00:28:54.360
Like, but the point is this ain't that, this is fucking actually giving a shit.
00:28:59.000
Like if you want to be actually fucking financially well to fuck off, you will give a fuck about
00:29:06.280
And that concept is relevant to any business, by the way.
00:29:09.780
Like you can apply that whole concept to any, anything to any business.
00:29:17.800
They fuck it up whenever they start, they start thinking how rich they're going to get.
00:29:24.500
If you take care of them, you, you will get where you want to go.
00:29:28.240
And people think that like, they're going to just snap their fingers or they're going
00:29:32.420
to have one, they're going to, you know, have one customer or one deal that like makes
00:29:45.900
The game is bunts and stealing bases and doing it for fucking, when everybody goes
00:29:50.760
home at nine innings, you're there the next day, still doing the shit.
00:29:57.120
And everybody thinks it's about home runs and big giant deals and all this shit.
00:30:02.160
The reality is the richest, most wealthy dudes that I know personally, they understand what
00:30:10.400
It's bunts and stealing bases and is doing it for a long time.
00:30:13.860
And if you can grasp that concept, nobody likes to hear that because it fucking, they
00:30:20.500
But that during that time, bro, life is happening.
00:30:23.500
You're, you're, you're, you know, you're dating, you're going to college, you're, you're having
00:30:29.560
There's shit like this is, it's not just like you're sitting there and you know, you have
00:30:36.500
Like the period of life that I had where I had nothing was the fucking most fun period
00:30:45.700
And for those of you guys try to like, you know, hack your way around what is actually
00:30:50.920
the, the time that you're going to learn the most, you're going to develop the most skills.
00:30:59.740
And you know, you just want to go to the fucking party at the end of the, at the end of the
00:31:05.440
And if you go to the party at the end of the road, out the gate, you show up, you don't
00:31:10.860
have any skills, you don't have any lessons, you don't have any stories, you don't have
00:31:15.020
You're just some dude with some fucking money, bro.
00:31:17.000
And that's not, there's nothing cool about that.
00:31:21.460
What's really cool is the journey that you're on and the people that you do it with.
00:31:26.140
So instead of trying to hit the home run over and over and over again and falling on your
00:31:39.300
Guys, Andy, our third and final question, Andy, question number three, Andy, I just completed
00:31:45.240
75 hard today and I will complete the live heart program this year.
00:31:50.380
I know, and I can feel the momentum that I've built from 75 hard.
00:31:54.400
My mindset is totally different from the, uh, from where it was in the beginning.
00:31:59.740
Do you have any recommendations on how to transfer that into my career?
00:32:03.720
If I'm not happy with the results I'm getting, and it just seems like every place I go, I'm
00:32:08.080
the only one who wants more than just nine to five.
00:32:10.800
I am a mechanic by the way, but how, like, how can I transfer that momentum into the career
00:32:17.860
Well, yeah, it's completely transferable because it changes who you are at the core.
00:32:22.280
It makes you a highly disciplined, highly productive version.
00:32:25.220
So if you take the attention to detail that you have, uh, during 75 hard and the perseverance
00:32:31.960
that you have to show and the grit that you have to have, and you apply that to your career,
00:32:36.680
okay, now you're, you're moving your career needle.
00:32:43.200
In fact, most people will tell you that when they complete 75 hard, one of the, like a lot
00:32:49.960
of the things they talk about is how much better their career is, how much better their relationship
00:32:54.540
is and all these things, because the actual skills that you learn during that time that
00:33:00.480
get, that you, they get finely tuned and they're at the highest level they've been for you
00:33:04.340
ever, by the way, you still have a lot higher to go.
00:33:08.980
But the point is, is that they will organically flow into all areas of your life.
00:33:13.640
So what you're, what you're probably, you're probably overthinking a little bit here, homie.
00:33:18.860
Uh, you're thinking, you know, you're just finished it, which is fucking awesome.
00:33:22.900
But you're thinking like, how can I aggressively get better?
00:33:26.200
And that's fucking great to think that way, but I think you're going to notice that that's
00:33:30.900
going to happen just because you are, you now, and you're not the, you that you were
00:33:38.300
So, and by the way, this is another person, this, this guy here could benefit from, uh,
00:33:43.620
episode 16, win the day, because that episode will give you the exact play by play steps to
00:33:50.780
progress your career forward that are better, that are, they're not abstract.
00:33:57.660
You will see them in front of your face day by day, by day, by day.
00:34:01.480
And you will learn confidence from this because you will see you checking off these critical
00:34:07.420
tasks that move your life and career forward every single day.
00:34:12.120
So it's not only a great way to get shit done, but it also like 75 hard is a great way to build
00:34:18.880
I think when you say too, it's also important to remember like, bro, that 75 days compared
00:34:24.200
to however long you've been living as that previous person, you're going to take it a
00:34:29.540
You know, you're going to, it's like, this is a program.
00:34:32.920
It's not, you know, like, you know, one of the, one of the best, worst things that happen
00:34:38.120
when it comes to 75 hard is that it got branded as a challenge.
00:34:46.380
And so that's where you get a lot of the critiques, right?
00:34:48.960
You get a lot of the critiques of like, oh, uh, it's not sustainable.
00:34:54.060
Bro, you, you're, you're not understanding the program because you're fucking, you think
00:35:06.380
Once you understand that and you understand that program is a way of life that you're
00:35:13.140
And each time you do yours, this is why I said your discipline for this person still has
00:35:19.080
You, all of the skills that you created this first 75 days, which right now you're, you're
00:35:29.640
Like you're at, you're like, holy shit, dude, it's a whole new world.
00:35:33.280
But now you have to recognize that you can actually take that up another level and another
00:35:46.040
And you'll get to a certain level, you know, where like the things that you used to like,
00:35:52.780
you know, that used to hinder you or pull you off course, alcohol, overeating, uh, toxic
00:35:59.000
people, bad, just bad habits, shit that you used to not be able to say no to are, are
00:36:10.900
You know, if you continue to awareness as well.
00:36:13.000
Because, because dude, you're, this is where, this is where, you know, people get upset
00:36:17.420
with me when I talk about how, how they don't celebrate, uh, you know, how celebrating with
00:36:22.980
like a cake or whatever after 75 hard, you know, like says they didn't do the program.
00:36:32.200
The truth is the first time you do 75 hard, if you did it, even if you did it right, there's
00:36:39.260
still a chance you might go back to those things.
00:36:41.300
But what you'll learn over time is you'll learn that you don't want those things that
00:36:48.640
And so, you know, while I said on the other show the other day, you know, uh, might've
00:36:56.160
I make hard statements because there's so many people that fucking don't get it.
00:37:00.300
You know, Oh, I'm in my garage with the windows open.
00:37:09.240
Like some of you guys ask questions that are so fucking dumb that it drives me insane, which
00:37:15.560
forces me to say hardline shit because I get so fucking tired of it.
00:37:36.400
Like I try to be cool and I try to fucking like, I try to be understanding and I try to
00:37:41.880
This is why I quit participating in the conversations regarding 75 hard because they got so fucking
00:37:48.280
ridiculous that I can't, it's like, bro, I can't be any more clear.
00:37:55.380
These things are all there for a fucking reason.
00:38:00.520
And dude, it's just so, so what ends up happening is like, just like now I start getting fucking
00:38:06.460
And I'm like, you know, when the celebration thing, what the point I'm trying to make here
00:38:17.040
And for me, I'm to the point where I don't fucking celebrate that shit because I don't
00:38:24.800
In fact, I look at the habits that I used to have and I'm like, that's what a fucking
00:38:32.260
Like, I'm not, I'm certainly not going to celebrate all my hard work by being a fucking
00:38:41.340
But like, when you, you know, when you're first going through the program, you know,
00:38:47.380
And sometimes I forget that because I've done it for so, such a long time now.
00:38:55.780
And here's the other thing about 75 hard, dude.
00:38:58.400
You know, some of you guys are fucking dicks about it.
00:39:05.260
Like any community that I'm represented in, whether it be first form community or, you
00:39:10.600
know, fucking 75 hard or fucking RTA or whatever, bro, I don't like it when you guys are mean
00:39:17.380
We got enough of that shit in the fucking world.
00:39:19.180
Like being a fucking asshole ain't part of anything I want to be a part of.
00:39:24.700
So fucking treat each other, respect, be cool, help each other, pick each other up.
00:39:28.840
The shit we talk about on the show all the time.
00:39:32.300
Because like, dude, I see, I see, I see people being fucking assholes to each other when
00:39:42.720
And if we want that shit to fucking stop, guess who has to stop it?
00:39:46.020
Now, I'm not saying when someone's a fuck that we don't bury the motherfucker.
00:39:51.500
When someone's out of line and they're being a fucking asshole, then we can all get together
00:39:56.260
and instead of tearing each other out, we can bury that motherfucker.
00:40:00.940
But when it comes to like bickering over this or that or this or that, bro, you can disagree
