00:01:58.720 okay so if we do a good job if you learn something if you gain something if it entertains you if it
00:02:04.980 makes you laugh it makes you think if it gives you new perspective if you think it's information

00:02:19.500 this i can make eight figures a year uh with the ad traffic from the show on this particular show
00:02:26.220 i don't do that because i don't want you guys questioning what it is i'm saying or why i'm saying it and
00:02:32.880 i don't want to be told by some corporate fuck what i can and can't say so in exchange for that all 0.88
00:02:37.980 i ask is that you help us grow the show that's it so what's up man yeah but grower is not
00:02:44.260 sure that's right that's right what uh what's going on brother oh you know yeah what uh what
00:02:50.960 what book are you reading right now um i'm reading like four different books right now okay so i'm
00:02:57.580 usually how you do it like um yeah because like dude and where i like the places i sit i usually
00:03:04.360 have a book in each one of those places so like when i'm at home and i'm like in the house there's
00:03:09.040 a book on the coffee table that i'm working on if i'm down in my uh cigar bar you know my cigar bar
00:03:15.640 uh all those cigars yeah all those cigars when i'm down in the cigar bar um you know i have a book
00:03:23.100 uh that i read there when i'm here i i have a book that i read here so i'm working on you know i'm
00:03:29.080 always have them in the places i sit because occasionally you know throughout the day i'll wake
00:03:33.880 up or you know take like take a break or whatever not wait i don't know what the fuck i said but 0.85
00:03:38.760 wake wake up the fuck am i talking about when you bake up yeah that's right when i bake up uh you know 0.87
00:03:46.420 i i take a little break and uh i read and i usually try to knock out 10 pages i won't pick up the book
00:03:53.060 without reading at least 10 pages so like um one of the books i'm reading right now at home uh in the
00:04:00.260 bar the cigar bar right is uh meditations by marcus aurelius okay um that's really cool i never read
00:04:08.220 that book before and it gets it gets good right away it's really really good uh book that i'm reading
00:04:14.900 up in at the house right now um i just got done with uh a couple different books by tim grover i read
00:04:23.120 relentless and i've already read those books but i read relentless and winning back to back as part of
00:04:28.280 75 hard because i think they're such good mindset books for me um so i'm always working on different
00:04:34.380 things you know what i'm saying uh and and i like to reread books that i read you know 10 years ago
00:04:40.720 because i see them through a new perspective now so uh it's like watching an old movie
00:04:46.720 and seeing a new stuff that's right that's right dude i think people like and it's awesome dude
00:04:53.480 like i mean i hate that it took 75 hard to get me there as far as the reading part
00:04:58.280 but it's so like it's so underrated in our society right now well yeah and especially people don't
00:05:03.520 really understand what it can do for your mental anxiety and mental dialogue you know a lot of
00:05:07.780 people talk about how much anxiety they suffer from well dude if you can get into a book for just 10
00:05:12.640 pages it will help bring the fucking level down and so like you know i'm usually reading about 30 0.94
00:05:18.600 pages to 40 pages a day and sometimes that's of one book or sometimes that's of many books but it's
00:05:24.940 usually done in short bursts yeah um and dude part of what it does is it helps regulate my my emotions
00:05:32.460 or whatever the chaos of the day is because in my position uh where i'm at what i do my basic
00:05:40.060 role is to solve the problems that no one else can fucking solve like our systems in all of our 0.90
00:05:45.560 companies we have executives we have teams that run them all so when things come to me bro it's it's
00:05:52.260 something that they weren't able to handle right so like i'm constantly dealing with high stress
00:05:57.080 or uh you know high anxiety inducing problems trying to solve those problems and so like for me i have to
00:06:03.600 be very careful to manage my emotional state and mainly how i do so is through reading these short
00:06:09.700 bursts throughout the day you know people don't understand uh how powerful especially when you're
00:06:15.980 working on a business reading can actually be for you because when you're putting in
00:06:20.260 all this information what it does is it creates the mechanism uh in your brain to work properly
00:06:26.840 that is responsible for the creative thought of whatever it is that you're working on so by me
00:06:31.940 being able to read and be able to put good information in my brain my brain is able to process
00:06:37.720 information and come up with creative and and strong you know ideas to solve some of the problems
00:06:44.660 that are going on with whatever it is i'm working on yeah so i think a lot of people don't really
00:06:49.560 understand they think like reading you know most people see reading as something that
00:06:54.360 they were made to do right but they don't understand how powerful it could be uh in many
00:07:02.040 different avenues over the course of you know of their life and one of them is you know emotional
00:07:07.580 management one of them is uh you know unplugging from the technology world one of them is the creative
00:07:13.020 development that you have when you are reading and you don't necessarily have to be reading
00:07:17.280 something about creativity you could be reading anything and then your brain starts thinking it
00:07:22.820 starts thinking it starts thinking and then you focus back over here on what it is that you're
00:07:27.260 working on and all of a sudden you have this working brain that's focused over here now on this area that
00:07:32.720 you need help with and you're able to come up with better solutions for those problems and i think it's
00:07:37.220 a massive every single high level operating ceo of a company that i personally know reads a shit ton
00:07:44.820 and i know there's fucking people out there to say oh reading's stupid and you should learn from 0.91
00:07:49.160 experience well you're a fucking moron bro like you you're you're saying that your experience is so 0.99
00:07:55.360 strong that you can't learn from the fucking millions and millions and millions of people
00:07:59.820 who have written fucking useful books like you're closing yourself off now do i agree that there's people 0.91
00:08:06.460 who who dive into books and never go into reality yeah that's bad too you need both you need
00:08:13.960 experience and you need the experiences of others which is served in the form of books yeah so i mean
00:08:19.800 think about like like just the ability or opportunity to learn from somebody else's mistakes before you
00:08:24.720 even have to make it so what that you know that book cost you 15 bucks or 20 bucks but it cost you
00:08:29.820 four hours of your time right right but it saved you a fucking fifty thousand dollar mistake or a 0.96
00:08:34.780 fucking hundred thousand dollar mistake bro yeah it's crazy i think one of the cool things too about 0.54
00:08:39.180 reading man that i'm i'm coming to terms with is like you know i think about like like lifting
00:08:44.120 weights right we lift we lift we're pretty strong right yeah and um but like it takes it takes a lot
00:08:51.400 of time to really see the the changes uh from from lifting right like it's gonna take months if you're
00:08:57.160 fucking going at it right yeah with the book bro i can read 10 pages and i pull that fucking nugget out 0.99
00:09:01.380 of there i'm instantly better right then yeah right then yeah especially if you go apply it yeah you
00:09:06.740 know a lot of people don't know how to read actively you know they they they read in a very
00:09:10.680 passive manner i read in an active manner meaning i have a note my notepad in my phone and i have a
00:09:19.280 title so in my notepad on my phone i'll say notes from blank this book okay and then when i see those
00:09:26.700 little nuggets right like every 10 pages i usually pull probably one or two nuggets and i write them
00:09:33.120 down i'll say okay this is the nugget right and then i'll say page 22 okay and so what happens is
00:09:42.500 is eventually over time i build this entire list of ideas that i have that are appropriate and in line
00:09:49.160 with my um goals like you know like because what will happen is i'll be reading a book and i'll have an
00:09:56.980 idea that i can apply to one of my companies and you know i'll actually write the point of the book
00:10:03.280 and then the idea that came from it and then the page and now all of a sudden dude i've got this
00:10:07.960 whole entire library of fucking ideas to go implement into my life and like that's what active reading is 0.90
00:10:15.440 about so like i am actively looking for in that 10 pages one or two things that will drastically help
00:10:22.400 whatever it is i'm working on whether that be me or whether it be businesses yeah see what i'm saying
00:10:27.360 yeah but we're just geeks bro we're nerds well that's fine with me i'll be a rich one you know
00:10:33.200 what i'm saying so you call me whatever the fuck you want but like one thing you ain't gonna call 0.95
00:10:38.040 me is fucking broke right yeah so facts facts man i love it man well it is uh it is q a i got some good 0.90
00:10:45.080 ones for you so let's uh let's make these people better man yeah andy question number one uh hey andy
00:10:51.360 i'm a newer business owner i found that i struggle with taking any time off from work when i do take
00:10:58.500 time off i feel extremely guilty the entire time even when i've worked very hard to earn a day off
00:11:04.420 to enjoy my hobbies every now and then one of the reasons i became a business owner was to have a more
00:11:09.620 flexible schedule but now that i'm here i struggle to put it to use do you have any tips on overcoming
00:11:15.180 that or is that just part of running your business i think that's part of running a business that
00:11:19.840 you're excited about i think a lot of people think that like i'm crazy because like dude i just missed
00:11:25.980 my first day ever of being at hq this past weekend saturday was the first day that i have not been here
00:11:34.100 on a day that i wasn't traveling out of town and people hear that and they're like well that's so
00:11:40.720 fucking unhealthy why would i listen to you i don't want to be like you you don't you don't want to love 0.99
00:11:45.540 what the fuck you do you don't want to love it so much that you can't take a day off you don't want 0.91
00:11:50.280 to love it so much that you know it feels weird when you don't come in you don't want to love it
00:11:55.280 that much to where you don't ever feel like you're working so you don't want to be like that you know
00:11:59.660 i'm saying like shut the fuck up you don't know what you're talking about okay so the reality is 0.91
00:12:04.260 there's there's different there's different ways to look at this problem that's my problem okay and
00:12:12.240 it's quote unquote a problem it's not really a problem because my whole family life and existence
00:12:16.920 is built around that so it's not a problem for me now if you have a family and kids that demand your
00:12:24.200 time uh and have all these other responsibilities that this could be a problem for that all right so
00:12:31.360 you have to understand that you're going to have to take some time away from your video game johnny
00:12:35.720 and pay attention in real life okay so like that's what we're starting to understand you know
00:12:41.540 it's not a problem unless you make it a problem and if it's a problem for your family or your you know
00:12:47.800 your obligations then all that is is you have to look at it like you know you're playing this
00:12:52.780 addictive video game that you used to play and it's time to get up and go to fucking dinner right now 0.98
00:12:57.580 you know what i'm saying right and you have to be able to understand that um you know now there's
00:13:02.500 another perspective a lot of people do this because they're they do it out of fear they are they are
00:13:07.120 totally afraid that if they take a day off that their entire fucking business will crumble and for 0.93
00:13:12.920 those people that's very dangerous that's not a good place to live and i think it's important for
00:13:17.720 you all to understand that a day or two off once in a while is not going to fucking crush you 0.93
00:13:22.540 and in fact when you're in the beginning stages uh the stages that are the hardest of your business
00:13:28.200 um i think it's important that you understand that actually taking a day off or two
00:13:33.700 will re-energize you and get you you know on the path that you want to go again so there's all
00:13:40.060 different ways to look at it but i think that you know most of the time when we run into situations
00:13:45.960 like this it's because people are either desperate and they're totally afraid or they're totally in
00:13:53.360 love with what they do so they don't you know what i'm saying take any days off i think it's important
00:13:58.000 in both cases to take some days off you know i'm going to do more traveling this year that's something
00:14:04.260 that i want to do and the reason is is because dude you know every time i do travel i'm i am even
00:14:10.600 much as i like being here i am even happier to be here when i come back so it helps reset that bar as
00:14:16.320 well so i think there's all different kinds of ways to look at it but ultimately dude here's what
00:14:20.160 you guys got to understand you're not your business is not going to crumble with you taking a fucking 0.99
00:14:25.480 day or two or even a fucking week off it's not that's a that's an irrational fear that you have 0.88
00:14:30.880 because you're probably running your business the right way with a level of urgency where every single
00:14:36.400 detail matters which is what it takes to build a successful business and you're afraid that if you
00:14:41.140 step away that those things will fucking not happen and guess what they probably won't happen 0.92
00:14:48.960 the people probably won't hold your standard when you step out of the office but what that does is that
00:14:55.080 gives you an understanding of how you need to fix your systems and how you need to fix your company
00:14:59.600 so that when you do step out that doesn't fall off so there's actually lessons to learn here by you
00:15:05.320 taking time away because it allows you to see the holes inside of your own company which allows you
00:15:10.920 to repair the holes which makes for a stronger healthier company and a stronger healthier you
00:15:15.680 yeah absolutely let me ask you this any 24 years in business right
00:15:19.460 like i know because i've been with you for the last three years you're a 100 you fucking love this place 0.84
00:15:26.460 right has it always been like that though right like i mean 24 years in business has every single day
00:15:31.840 been exciting no absolutely not how did you power through that part well i didn't have any other
00:15:37.700 options you know i'm saying that's what i talk about with zero option mentality like i can't quit
00:15:44.660 if i quit bro there's fucking hundreds and hundreds of people thousands of people that are going to 0.98
00:15:49.860 suffer you know what i mean um so you know when things are hard and when things are difficult you know
00:15:57.560 you do have to kind of pull from that that discipline and that fucking grit and that fortitude
00:16:02.640 muscle that you've been working on and apply it and realize like fuck this is a hard time but we're 0.70
00:16:07.860 going to get through it and we'll get back to sunshine here soon you know what i'm saying yeah and that
00:16:12.020 resiliency and that ability to persevere through is essential for anybody that's looking to build
00:16:16.160 anything because the reality is is that even if even when you love what you do the days are still going
00:16:23.960 to be hard as fuck they're just not as mentally taxing because you understand what it is you're
00:16:29.720 trying to build and what you're working on and where you're going with this um where it really
00:16:33.960 buries you mentally is like when i talk about people who talk about burnout right where they're
00:16:40.220 doing something that they don't and people misinterpret this turn this this little point that i make all
00:16:45.540 the time but they they don't understand that when you are working on something that you're not
00:16:51.200 passionate about not clear about uh when in regards to the mission how it's going to serve you
00:16:55.720 you are going to get burnt out very quickly all right and a lot of people think that they need rest
00:17:01.840 and relaxation in those times that's not what the fuck you need what you actually need is a realignment 0.51
00:17:06.720 of working on something that matters to you that you're passionate about that you want to be a
00:17:11.760 part of and then working aggressively towards that and that will actually energize you it will do the
00:17:17.040 opposite of what you feel right now which is burnout a lot of people attach burnout to working
00:17:21.780 hours that's not that's not exactly what does it what burns you out is working on something that you
00:17:28.880 are way past the point of actually giving a fuck about and doing that over and over and over again
00:17:34.280 and so the way to correct that is not necessarily taking a vacation or because bro when you take that
00:17:42.280 vacation you come back you're going right back to the thing that you don't give a fuck about 0.84
00:17:45.380 might even be worse that's what i'm saying dude so we have to understand that when we feel burnt
00:17:50.140 out we feel frustrated we feel angry that you know the rat like give yourself a break thing is not the
00:17:56.480 actual solution to this the solution is decide what it is that you actually want to fucking do 0.94
00:18:02.160 and then aggressively attack that which actually means more work than what you're putting in now
00:18:07.100 and then that will cure the situation of burnout all right but people don't think of it like that
00:18:13.040 because they want to just say oh i'm burned out and they want to justify their their rest or their
00:18:17.860 vacation or whatever it is they're working on uh or decide to do it's more of a justification than it
00:18:23.880 is a real a real solution that they're trying to solve so i'm trying to offer you a real solution if
00:18:28.580 you want to just say oh i'm burnt out so you can go fuck off why not just say hey i want to go fuck 0.98
00:18:32.540 off you know what i'm saying right let's just skip the foreplay let's get into it right which is okay
00:18:37.900 yeah like so anyway yeah i love it and question number two
00:18:43.620 do you believe that being competitive is a skill or do you believe it's a trait
00:18:51.080 and if it is a skill what's how do you suggest going about improving that
00:18:55.000 well i think it's a reality more than anything you know uh competitiveness is a is a law of nature
00:19:03.840 like when you look at animals in the animal world the most competitive ones are the ones that fucking
00:19:11.440 win and they're the ones that have all the spoils and they survive and they reproduce and
00:19:15.440 that's why it's called natural order all right natural order exists in all facets of life
00:19:22.200 it's reality and what we see on the in culture now is you know them trying to remove natural order
00:19:28.380 everything's got to be fair nothing can be offensive everything needs to get you uh you know everything
00:19:34.240 should be equal and everything like bro that's not reality and that's why it doesn't work that's why
00:19:39.380 it fucking doesn't take if it was a good idea it would fucking take it doesn't take because it's not 0.98
00:19:45.520 reality and so i think when you have to when you look at competitiveness and you can look at any
00:19:51.520 kid you could look at ryan okay um even younger younger kids and you give them a nerf a nerf
00:19:59.140 fucking basketball and a hoop and they get the fucking nerf basketball in the hoop their natural 1.00
00:20:03.760 reaction is to do what they celebrate they get excited they're like fuck yeah and so like i 0.78
00:20:08.500 personally believe that is within all of us and i think they have worked really hard in society to
00:20:14.280 eliminate it or get it viewed as a bad thing when in reality your entire success in life depends on
00:20:21.140 you being a highly competitive person this is just the way it is you could fucking say oh i'm not 0.86
00:20:26.380 competitive well if you say that you're guess what's going to happen to you you're going to get
00:20:30.360 eaten up by people who are competitive they're not going to not be competitive just because you don't
00:20:35.160 believe in it no one's going to stop building their company or stop building their life or stop doing
00:20:40.840 their thing because you don't believe that competition is the right thing you're going to get
00:20:45.800 fucking killed is what's going to happen okay that's why we have all these young kids that come 0.82
00:20:50.880 out of high school and they're taught this idealistic shit no they're not they haven't kept score ever in
00:20:55.760 a sport in their life they've gotten participation trophies they've been told that competition is evil
00:21:00.900 be that as it may and you believe that when you walk out into the fucking playing field of real life 0.86
00:21:08.040 what happens to you is you get fucking destroyed okay now that's intentional that's what i've been 0.97
00:21:14.480 talking about in real af for a long long time they intentionally create a situation where our
00:21:20.320 young people cannot fucking compete because they've never taught them how to be competitive 1.00
00:21:24.620 and so what happens is these people go out in the real world and they get their fucking asses beat 0.94
00:21:31.040 and when they get their asses beat they become like pouty babies and complain about the system and 0.89
00:21:37.440 instead of recognizing that oh fuck i lack a skill and i haven't developed a skill and i've been taught 0.92
00:21:43.040 to disbelieve in something that is actual reality and that's my fault okay so and it's it's education
00:21:50.040 system's fault too okay it's society's fault we have we have we're suffering from 15 to 20 years
00:21:55.240 of terrible fucking ideas in the education system terrible fucking parenting strategies that's what 0.99
00:22:01.980 we're suffering from and it's created this this this certain sect of young people that believe they
00:22:07.900 should have all of your shit that you worked your whole life for oh you should have half of my shit 0.99
00:22:12.640 or i shouldn't have my shit so i can split it up amongst all you all that didn't do a fucking thing 0.99

00:22:22.580 giving you my shit i don't give a fuck what the government tells me to do it ain't fucking happening 0.99
00:22:26.100 and the truth of the matter is you should be fucking embarrassed that you even believe in that 0.87
00:22:30.860 ideology because the reality is it's not my responsibility to fucking work my balls off
00:22:35.980 so that you could fucking get a gender study degree and fucking sit at starbucks and blog about 1.00
00:22:41.080 how fucking fucked up the you know the difference between men and women is right like bro that i've 0.99

00:23:33.880 who gets paid the money the winner the winners are the losers yeah who gets paid the fucking big money 0.90
00:23:39.900 in sports the guys who score fucking points or the guys who don't score points that should be your 0.98
00:23:45.580 first fucking indicator who gets paid in real life oh it's the people who actually fucking do shit and 0.97
00:23:52.080 who are valuable okay who lives in a nice house who drives the nice car those people are not your
00:23:58.060 fucking enemy dude you should be looking at those people as inspiration for what's possible for
00:24:02.920 yourself as opposed to just being a fucking pussy and saying oh fuck that person there's nothing that 0.99
00:24:10.500 i despise more than these communist fucking fucks that infiltrate our fucking society and start 0.90
00:24:17.100 pointing the finger at people who work their entire fucking lives to have a life okay and provide a
00:24:24.200 life for thousands of other people and point at it and say it's fucked up no you're fucked up you don't 0.95
00:24:30.740 have any idea what the fuck you're talking about and unfortunately you grew up in a time in america 0.83
00:24:35.460 where they pacified you they lied to you they taught you the wrong shit and you shouldn't be mad at me for 0.73
00:24:41.700 that you should be mad at the motherfuckers who taught you that and the quicker that you could come to 0.79
00:24:46.100 terms and understand that i am bought into a false reality and i need to get in line with actual
00:24:52.060 reality the quicker you will end your suffering as a human being
00:24:56.300 it's true no that's that's the fucking truth man you know these people are angry yeah they're pissed 0.90
00:25:04.680 off rightfully so bro i get it yeah i get it i i'm not you should be pissed off but it's not in me
00:25:11.000 right and it's not in other people that have built spent 20 something years building their lives
00:25:15.540 you should be pissed off at the fucking government and the education system and your fucking parents
00:25:21.500 that taught you the wrong fucking shit and you should take it upon yourself to fucking fix that 0.97
00:25:25.700 shit in yourself today so that you don't have to ruin your whole life being a fucking dependent cry 1.00
00:25:31.780 baby fucking pussy fuck for real yeah like bro what what's the alternative you're 22 years old and 0.99
00:25:39.280 you brought in all this bullshit and you're getting your ass beat okay so you're gonna take another 60 0.94
00:25:44.000 years of ass beating or are you gonna decide oh shit i was taught the wrong thing i should maybe 0.90
00:25:49.700 learn these new things and i can learn these new things and become an effective contributing member
00:25:53.880 of society provide for myself provide for my family set an excellent example for everybody around me
00:25:59.020 and actually make this world a better place or you could spend the next 60 years being a fat lazy
00:26:05.540 dependent fuck that everybody fucking hates because they hate paying their taxes to support you 0.96
00:26:13.320 it's your decision you get to choose it i if i had my way i would make every single person who has a
00:26:20.960 fucking say in this country have to pay tax you have to pay in the system or you can't have a
00:26:25.780 fucking vote that would be my solution to this because we have all these people we have enough people
00:26:31.620 now who have bought into that ideology where it's actually a discussion there's a discussion for
00:26:36.960 socialism and then there's a discussion for capitalism when in reality capitalism is a superior
00:26:42.520 fucking most superior fucking way of doing things that's ever existed okay and i can't help it that 0.85
00:26:50.720 your brain can't fucking understand that i can't help it that you don't want to fucking work i can't help 0.98
00:26:55.860 it that you're so fucking lazy and you have such little self-esteem and such little self-respect 0.96
00:27:00.980 that you would allow yourself to be dependent on a government for an extended period of time
00:27:05.500 i'm not saying that the government shouldn't step in and help people when they're bridging a gap in
00:27:09.500 a hard time i'm not saying that but if we made every single human that's on fucking the welfare 0.99
00:27:14.740 assistance pass a fucking drug test before they got it we probably wouldn't have so many people on it 0.93
00:27:19.740 if we gave them a time limit of how much time they could use we probably wouldn't have so many people
00:27:24.460 on it if we actually encourage people to win and build a great life we probably wouldn't have
00:27:28.760 so many people upon it but the problem is they want people on it they want you on it they need
00:27:34.480 you on it they want you on it because if you're on it you're dependent on them then you vote for the
00:27:39.080 dependents and that's what they're creating intentionally that's why you've been taught all this
00:27:44.240 fucking wrong shit and why you cannot get any traction in real life it's a tragedy it's fucking 0.99
00:27:50.360 wrong it makes me angry too you know how many people out there are way behind in life because
00:27:55.520 they've been taught this bad these these bad ideas and things that aren't reality bro you can't go
00:28:01.120 into nature and fucking talk natural order out of it you don't get to go into nature and with the 0.92
00:28:06.180 with the fucking the hierarchy of of you know predators and get to talk to them all and say all 0.96
00:28:11.780 right guys uh we're all going to stop fucking eating each other yeah just grass now yeah like 0.97
00:28:16.880 motherfucker they're still going to eat yeah and that's what people don't understand like they don't
00:28:21.180 understand this about this this fucking discussion that we're talking about they don't get they're 0.95
00:28:26.060 like you can fucking pout and cry and be a victim your whole entire life the only person that's going 0.96
00:28:32.560 to lose from that is you you're never getting my shit dude you're never getting these other people's 0.94
00:28:38.120 shit because whatever rules or laws they make those people are going to figure out how to fucking still 1.00
00:28:43.300 get their shit and so you can hate them all you want you can fuck with them all you want but at the end 0.97
00:28:48.800 of the day you're the motherfucker that's going to pay the price of living a miserable existence 0.98
00:28:53.000 for the next 60 fucking years on this planet and if i had a hope for all of these people is that they 0.93
00:28:59.020 would understand this today and start working on becoming their better selves but it's highly unlikely
00:29:03.760 because the cultural conditioning is so fucking strong man a lot of these people wake up when they're 0.87
00:29:09.280 30 years old and they're like fuck i fucking got it okay and they wake up and they realize oh shit i was 0.98
00:29:14.760 manipulated this isn't true and they start to try to change i'm trying to save you 10 years of your
00:29:19.540 life by telling you what i just told you figure it out fucking today okay i would like to quickly add 0.97
00:29:27.040 oh would you yeah okay that was fantastic first of all every every youngster should listen to that
00:29:33.200 and i would like to add that i was one of those people like you were talking about i was one of those
00:29:38.540 people who were taught and taught that success is so evil everybody who's rich has done some kind of
00:29:45.820 shady shit and it took me number one how you talk about self-awareness to accept that i maybe am wrong 0.84
00:29:54.600 and started listening to people like you and have a shift in my mindset and this also goes in with the
00:30:02.480 question that dj asked like how to be more competitive i believe that i have changed so
00:30:08.420 much in the last two years being around each one of you because of seeing and observing your drive
00:30:16.740 that i want to be like it's contagious yeah it is extremely contagious like i cannot even relate to
00:30:23.840 myself two years ago because i am trying to in my own way immolate you and everybody in this room
00:30:30.440 now i'm trying to catch up to you and you are trying to obviously get better so we all are getting
00:30:35.820 better and that i feel has multiplied the competitiveness that i had in me but again to your
00:30:43.220 point we have been taught so much wrong stuff and if we have self-awareness and kind of accept that
00:30:50.540 maybe i could be wrong and start shadowing or learning from somebody like you who has done real world
00:30:57.460 stuff i believe that not only can pump up our competitiveness but also can really put out the
00:31:04.820 natural order like real ideas we can make successful well bro first of all i appreciate that and i mean
00:31:11.820 dude you you have you have figured that out i mean you're very competitive dude and you work very very
00:31:16.900 hard but you know we have to understand why like this is this is this is the essence of why i do cti and
00:31:24.820 real af and not just mfco anymore now i am bringing mfco back because i think it's something that needs
00:31:29.980 to be we need it right now um but what people have to understand is there's a reason why we're taught
00:31:37.160 success is bad there's a reason why we are not taught how to balance our finances in high school there's a
00:31:44.220 reason why we are kept in the dark on so many things and that reason is because when we are high
00:31:49.480 achieving high fucking functioning high earning healthy intelligent smart beings we are much
00:31:55.960 harder to control than people who are subservient and dependent and fat and uneducated unhealthy we 0.98
00:32:03.460 are we are less of a customer for their matrix and that's what people have to understand because dude
00:32:08.920 if that like when you you guys out there that like because there is people that listen to the show
00:32:13.420 that don't necessarily agree with what i say i don't know why the fuck you guys listen but 0.87
00:32:16.360 you do thanks yeah um my my assumption is you understand that some of the shit i say is right 0.76
00:32:23.480 and what i'm telling you right now is absolutely right and like you guys shouldn't be fucking mad
00:32:28.400 at people like me or other people out there who are i'm trying to fucking help you okay you should be 0.92
00:32:35.060 mad at the fucking system that creates this shit yeah and you should do everything you can to shove it 0.77
00:32:40.820 down shove it down their fucking throats okay that means becoming financially fit that'd be becoming 0.97
00:32:47.140 physically fit that means fucking putting educational shit in your brain it means keeping an open mind
00:32:53.200 it means not buying into the identity politics where people hate each other and actually being the
00:32:57.900 opposite of that being a a good listener fucking empathetic human that actually lifts people up and 0.80
00:33:04.660 helps them get better as opposed to trashing them and just being an overall piece of shit like dude
00:33:10.180 the ultimate rebellion is personal excellence personal excellence is the ultimate rebellion
00:33:15.200 because if we can all rebel against the mediocrity that they try to impose on us intentionally their
00:33:21.840 fucking systems crumble this is just the way it works so you know that was good input on that bro
00:33:28.260 appreciate it that came to my mind because he was talking about how you can cultivate competitiveness and
00:33:33.200 just adding to your point i was thinking like somebody's 16 to 18 years old how about reaching out to
00:33:39.560 somebody who is like you have a real world success and working for them for free and try to shadow
00:33:46.480 what they have done and why they have done it and maybe try to even 10 percent accept that maybe my
00:33:52.720 ideology could be wrong maybe i would just leave it for chance and go shadow somebody and try to learn
00:33:58.540 from them like what has made them successful and maybe that will help cultivate competitiveness yeah or
00:34:05.280 you just listen to what i just told you i make the switch today absolutely yeah for free that's right
00:34:10.280 no that's good good stuff bro well guys andy our third and final question question number three
00:34:17.180 uh andy how has your view on taking risk when you had no money uh versus your position about taking
00:34:26.480 risks now with money how has that changed and is the ability to take risk a major factor in becoming
00:34:34.280 successful yeah most people look at risk the wrong way okay first of all i pretend like i don't have any
00:34:40.840 money all the time it doesn't matter how much money i have now i know i have money but i i i act as if
00:34:48.360 i don't have any because i want to act with the proper urgency and the risk assessment um level that
00:34:56.440 i would have when i did have no money because that's the difference between offensively working
00:35:01.480 towards where it is you want to go or playing not to lose you can either play to win or you can play
00:35:06.240 not to lose and where you really get beat is when you start playing not to lose just like in football
00:35:10.480 when teams start playing the prevent defense what happens they start losing okay so the key is to
00:35:16.100 stay on offense all the time so you have to understand this is where that mentality i talk
00:35:20.740 about all the time zero options mentality comes in i have to pretend i don't have any money um which can
00:35:26.580 be challenging at this point in my life because i have a very cool life yeah right um but i try to ask
00:35:35.380 myself before i make decisions like in terms of business strategy and things i do how how
00:35:40.360 would i look at this if i didn't have something to fall back on what move would i make all right so
00:35:44.620 i consciously work work through those decisions um and then i think most people look at risk the wrong
00:35:50.300 way risk is not about asking yourself you know um it's not about like what's this you know waiting
00:35:57.560 the goods and the bads and this and that i've never looked at risk that way here's what i look at it
00:36:02.140 all the time every single time what if i don't do it what if i fucking don't do it what's going to 0.96
00:36:08.480 happen if i don't go what's going to happen if i don't make that decision what's going to happen if
00:36:11.860 i don't build my body what's going to happen if i don't build my career what's going to happen if
00:36:15.580 i don't make these phone calls what's going to happen if i don't fucking make this business plan 0.92
00:36:19.840 what if i don't invest here what if i don't do that and so that drives me far more and i think
00:36:27.220 most people far more than thinking about it like oh what's the risk in this well the fucking risk is 0.86
00:36:33.080 you're going to fucking lose if you don't do shit bro that's the risk and so i think a lot of 0.90
00:36:37.320 people get caught up in the in the way that most people look at risk which is you know fuck i don't 0.88
00:36:42.100 know man this is pretty risky like ah fuck i don't know and i'm i'm like looking around i'm like well 0.77
00:36:47.420 this shit fucking sucks right here uh i don't want this shit so i better do that right and so i think 0.98
00:36:53.180 it's about what's going to happen when you know you don't do it that's how you should be looking
00:36:59.160 at risk that's that's how i think the proper way to look at risk is that's how i try to look at it
00:37:03.120 it's not it's not what you have to lose it's what you have to gain basically yeah or what like or i
00:37:09.460 have to stay here where it's this place i don't fucking like right you see what i'm saying right 0.98
00:37:13.280 right so like i that's what people have to understand is like your life that you're comfortable
00:37:19.000 in right now is probably a small fraction of the reality that you actually desire so you're not
00:37:25.640 choosing like what so you fucking lose what you lose what you lose oh you get to stay in this 0.94
00:37:32.320 fucking life that you're not happy with anyway right you see what i'm saying like fuck bro yeah 0.94
00:37:37.380 like start thinking about what happens if you don't do it oh i get to stay fucking here well this this 0.94
00:37:41.700 sucks i want something else so i'm gonna fucking do these things and so those two aspects you know 0.95
00:37:46.440 the zero option mentality and then also the uh the thinking about risk and the the way of you know
00:37:53.260 what's gonna happen if i don't do it i think those two things help me move forward and make those
00:37:57.240 decisions properly well that's it man that's all i got yeah that's three that's three go pay the fee
00:38:02.640 don't be a hoe share the show all right went from sleeping on the floor now my jewelry box froze 0.99
