00:03:19.400
gonna actually though because somebody had actually uh had actually wrote in a q a question about
00:03:23.500
the advertisement uh scope yeah right and they're like no man like you know you would think that
00:03:30.440
andy would have some products or services or companies that he does support and like i'm trying to i'm
00:03:35.320
like there's a difference between a shameless plug and then being controlled by or having your
00:03:40.480
narrative completely controlled or having somebody else's input and you do shameless plugs all the
00:03:44.840
time that's fine but nobody's forcing you to do that right well i mean i plug my own shit right
00:03:50.560
yeah sure i mean why the fuck would i not talk about the amazing well that's the thing that'd be
00:03:55.460
undeniably great amazingly refreshing in fact hold on yeah in fact
00:04:05.400
now i know we just said we didn't run ads on the show right this is definitely not an ad right it's
00:04:13.540
not an ad uh but why wouldn't i talk about this amazing orange sunrise first form energy drink
00:04:20.100
makes you feel good tastes good makes your other things do good you know
00:04:25.740
we need somebody to come on with that that voice reading the fine print real quick
00:04:34.160
see that motherfucker should be paying me for ads i'm so fucking good at it
00:04:40.060
all right yeah like shameless plugs are cool yeah as long as there's no shame exactly right right
00:04:47.580
shameful plugs that's different we try to stay away from gotcha yeah look man i i i've turned down
00:04:54.320
many offers bro i've turned down many seven figure offers what's the biggest one what's the craziest
00:04:58.780
one well i don't want to say the company but i got a i got an advertisement for i've had two
00:05:04.920
seven figure offers um early in the mfco project one was for shoes i don't wear right and one was
00:05:12.900
for whiskey i don't drink and and i can't do that yeah like i can't rep shit that i don't use people
00:05:19.380
know people know me yeah that's real like they know the fucking shoes i wear they know the fucking
00:05:24.300
whiskey i drank when i drank whiskey i haven't drank whiskey since 2018 but i can't do that it's not
00:05:31.280
it's not in me to do that i can't rep shit that i don't fucking believe in you see a
00:05:34.840
lot of those ncaa athletes doing that yeah like they jump to these yeah and i they jump to these
00:05:40.260
deals and it's like bro you don't like you don't even use that shit like come on now yeah and what
00:05:43.960
they don't realize is that by doing that you're you're discrediting your future brand so what
00:05:48.940
you're doing by repping shit that is not something that you truly believe in is that you are
00:05:54.540
discrediting yourself you know to the future consumers because they're going to see you jump from
00:05:59.420
this to that to this to that right all right and we see this in the influencer marketing game right
00:06:05.480
like we see influencers who will jump from brand to brand to brand back to this brand to this brand
00:06:11.500
and what they don't realize they're actually doing is that they're discrediting their own word with
00:06:17.240
their consumer so it's very it's just as important for an influencer to stay with a brand
00:06:22.720
as it is for a brand to stay with an influencer they need each other yeah and so you know a lot of
00:06:28.720
people ruin their credibility by by being someone who you know signs a year deal then the next year
00:06:33.800
they go over here and the next year they go over there and what you're showing your customer is is
00:06:37.920
that you're for sale your words for sale your recommendations for sale and you're teaching them
00:06:42.140
that they shouldn't listen to you yeah and it's something that a lot of these nil athletes and
00:06:46.800
internet influencers should really think about because the only thing that you ultimately have and the
00:06:51.780
only way you're able to make money doing these things is if people believe what the fuck you say
00:06:56.360
so yeah you know you have to be careful about that and a lot of influencers just fucking it goes
00:07:01.740
completely over their head yeah well i can make because like bro nobody's telling them that like
00:07:05.680
nobody's having that conversation but they don't a lot of them don't listen when you do tell them
00:07:09.140
yeah like it's just you know they know i'll show you yeah right and it's like okay well we'll see
00:07:13.640
where we're at in five years i'm thinking five years down ten years down the road for you you're
00:07:17.160
thinking fucking three months so you know it's if you're an influencer which a lot everybody is at
00:07:23.020
this point in time at some level you should be very discerning about what brands you work with and
00:07:28.100
you should be committed to working with those brands for a long term because the minute you
00:07:32.880
switch now you might be able to switch once okay but the minute you start that game of going from
00:07:37.780
here to here to here to here to here now you're someone that people won't buy from and then people
00:07:42.120
are confused or like well i'm i'm not able to sell as much as i used to well yeah bro because you
00:07:46.860
you fucking violated all the trust that you have with your community and they know that you're just
00:07:50.720
saying the shit because you're getting paid and that's not that's that's not good yeah yeah for sure
00:07:56.620
you know so it's important for the nil kids to really understand that shit like you know you guys
00:08:01.040
you guys who are college athletes that are listening to the show you know you have a lot of people out
00:08:05.780
there a lot of boosters offering you these nil deals and shit um you should be very discerning about
00:08:11.260
which ones you take and you should think long term not short term because the truth of the matter is
00:08:15.500
is you're only going to play sports for if you're great for 10 years max if you're great i mean and
00:08:23.040
you're a hall of famer you might get to play 15 years right you know 20 years like tom brady something
00:08:29.720
you know but like the likelihood is you ain't that great okay that's just the data that's the stats
00:08:36.000
all right and and i'm you know feel free to take my words and shove them down my throat okay
00:08:40.840
yeah i would appreciate it i'd be happy for you yeah but i'm just telling you the reality and so
00:08:46.460
you have to think long term what are you going to do post sports what are you going to do after sports
00:08:52.240
and you aren't you still going to want to have a solid word with your customer base so that you
00:08:56.400
can continue to do whatever it is that you do and profit from it yeah it's real so it's you know i see
00:09:02.220
a lot of that dude you know i'm happy that these guys in the nil can make some money i think it's
00:09:09.100
great for i think it's i think it's fair i think they should be allowed to you know the way that
00:09:13.200
the ncaa has been historically is fucking super bullshit um you know these colleges are making
00:09:19.360
fucking hundreds of millions of dollars billions of dollars off these fucking athletes and they
00:09:23.940
don't get shit but i still don't even think the nil system is the right way i think the system
00:09:28.420
should be they should get paid but it should go into some sort of annuity that they can utilize
00:09:33.900
or pay out over time once they're even done with that college career yeah because what we see now
00:09:39.760
is we see a lot of kids in college atmospheres getting too wrapped up becoming an influencer
00:09:45.760
with the nil deals and not enough on their game yeah sorry coach i can't come to practice that's what
00:09:50.260
i'm shooting this fucking head and shoulders video yeah bro and the thing is is like your game is
00:09:55.120
the part that pays the bills bro like if you you the nil deal is cool i'm happy for you but bro you
00:10:01.800
you got to put that aside and if we could take the money and put it in an annuity that they get later
00:10:06.180
they would focus more on their game now i know a lot of these guys are like fuck dad dude i want this
00:10:11.180
now look man i'm just trying to be a good big brother to you man right you know thank me later yeah
00:10:15.600
so well that's like a little extra sauce for people right there yeah there we go extra sauce
00:10:20.880
but uh i got i got some some some good ones for you all right i knew you did some good ones yeah
00:10:26.320
let's knock these out uh andy question number one first well first of all how you feeling
00:10:30.560
you're all good it's been a minute feel pretty good um yesterday i was able to complete a whole day
00:10:38.140
of like my 75 hard requirements i didn't i'm not i obviously failed this round and uh for those of
00:10:45.200
you that don't know i was fucking knocked the fuck down for a week like the sickest i've ever been as
00:10:50.800
an adult uh so i'm very frustrated that i failed that program because out of all the times i've done
00:10:56.920
75 hard that was the i had put the most intent into this round and um i'm gonna go ahead and you know
00:11:05.840
pick up where i left off and execute the rest of the days uh till i finish because i have a trip planned
00:11:12.340
for the end of right after that when i finish so i'm not going to start over um but i am going to
00:11:18.600
start over right when i get back from that trip so uh that's where i'm at but i'm going to execute
00:11:23.720
the right my my finish day was february 10th and i'm going to execute every day from here on out to
00:11:28.140
the best of my ability and just you know do what the fuck i set out to do you know i know that's
00:11:33.760
outside that regular rules are supposed to start out on day over on day one well guess what motherfuckers
00:11:38.520
um i haven't been on a trip in fucking uh 11 years so i'm going on the fucking trip yeah and
00:11:46.160
whatever the fuck you want to chatter about it it is what the fuck it is yeah so that's it um
00:11:52.980
it was good to see you man yeah i'm feeling good dude um you know laying around like that isn't good
00:11:59.300
for anybody no fuck no causes me so much anxiety and depression and like just uh you know like
00:12:08.960
you feel lonely like it's just fucking i think there's a universal signal you're sending out
00:12:13.520
saying i'm accepting this sickness and weakness yeah i don't know man i know this that uh i'm glad
00:12:20.780
to be fucking moving around yeah yeah all right let's get into these questions uh any question number
00:12:27.700
one okay in in the winning slash success equation okay what percentage do we should we leave to chance
00:12:39.400
or fate or god or the universe good thoughts on that as little as possible i mean look dude some of you
00:12:49.080
motherfuckers just don't fucking get it all right i'm gonna be real with you you think this is a
00:12:53.700
fucking easy thing to do you think that you have like time you think you have uh the time to take
00:12:59.580
it easy you think you could fucking coast through and you're still going to get where the fuck you go
00:13:04.220
and this is why nothing ever happens for you okay the the question that was asked right there
00:13:09.600
shows me that you don't fucking get it okay is god a factor is chance a factor is can luck be a factor
00:13:16.940
absolutely it can be but the minute you fucking think that you're going to rely on that to get you
00:13:21.960
across the line you're a fucking loser you're going to lose all right so you need to understand
00:13:28.240
that even the fucking shitty business that you see out there that you say oh that's a shitty business
00:13:35.300
those motherfuckers are a thousand times better than you already those people are working hard as
00:13:40.620
fuck those people have done things that you're not willing to do and they're doing things that you
00:13:44.780
aren't willing to do every single day to run that little shitty business that you think is shitty
00:13:49.320
okay you're so far off the fucking path you don't understand what the fuck it actually takes
00:13:54.840
it fucking takes everything and any motherfucker on the internet that tells you that doesn't
00:14:00.000
i can promise you they haven't built shit worth fucking admiring it's it's just the way it is
00:14:05.140
if you have people out there telling you oh take it easy oh blah blah blah look what they built
00:14:11.080
just look it ain't nothing okay so you need to come to terms with the understanding that
00:14:18.200
the job here to become successful to win is to control every single fucking element that you have
00:14:25.520
that can possibly be controlled which by the way is a hell of a lot more than you think
00:14:31.880
all right you can control so much in your life to create so much positive momentum and most people
00:14:38.340
can't even understand it because they're too busy waiting around to get lucky all right the reason
00:14:42.800
i don't talk about luck does luck exist of course it exists do i fucking talk about it no the reason
00:14:49.560
i don't talk about it because it's not something i rely on it's not something i count on if it shows
00:14:54.820
up fucking cool i'm gonna laugh i'm like man i fuck got lucky there but here's the reality the minute i
00:15:00.100
start saying luck is an actual part of the deal uh is the minute that half the people out here start
00:15:05.760
sitting around they say see he got fucking lucky see that guy he got lucky i don't get lucky and
00:15:11.400
y'all fucking go and live your loser fucking lives okay so i'm trying to protect you from your own
00:15:15.680
fucking stupid ass thinking so here's the reality you control what you put in your brain you control
00:15:22.020
what kind of exercise you do you control what you put in your mouth you control how you treat people
00:15:27.240
you control the personal development that you commit to you control the actions that you take day in
00:15:32.940
day out you control all of these things that you choose not to control and you say oh it's just up
00:15:39.060
to god it is up to god but god doesn't reward motherfuckers that sit on their ass i can promise
00:15:45.240
you that and it's biblical and it talks about it in the bible all right so i hate questions like that
00:15:51.440
because it shows that that person is literally waiting around for something to happen for them to
00:15:57.900
get where they're wanting to go and that person will lose their entire life period yeah absolutely
00:16:02.440
period if you fucking wait around for the stars to align or for god to reach down and help you or for
00:16:09.980
the fucking luck you know lucky charms dude to come hit you on the head and make you lucky you're a
00:16:15.040
fucking loser and you will lose forever you will lose forever okay nobody that's built anything that
00:16:21.880
you want to build lives like that they live with urgency every single day they execute every single
00:16:29.080
day they execute when they don't fucking feel like it do you think i really fucking feel like being here
00:16:34.020
right now i've been sick for a week and a half in fucking bed i do not fucking feel like being here
00:16:39.600
right now but guess what i'm fucking here okay that's what the fuck it takes bro and that's reality and
00:16:47.020
people are confused by this they the success has become such a like there's so many people on the
00:16:53.900
internet pretending to be successful okay talking about shit that's bullshit lying about their own
00:17:01.760
success pretending to be some sort of coach that people have now they now think this is just like the
00:17:09.420
diet pill situation with weight loss okay for 20 fucking years they they ran these commercials and i
00:17:16.440
actually just heard one from another company here in st louis you know you don't have to do any work
00:17:22.080
and you don't have to uh go on a diet you don't have to exercise you don't have to do this you don't
00:17:26.860
have to do this just take this pill okay that was the marketing for fucking 30 years in the diet
00:17:33.080
industry all right and you know what happened it ruined millions of people and here's why because
00:17:41.140
people who are overweight who don't understand and aren't told the truth that it's actually going
00:17:46.900
to take some fucking discomfort you're going to have to work you're going to have to learn some
00:17:51.520
discipline and these actual truths to getting in shape what they do is they will go from pill to
00:17:58.400
pill to pill to pill to pill and when none of them worked you know who they blamed they blame
00:18:04.120
themselves they say well fuck i guess i just don't have it i guess i just don't i don't have what it
00:18:09.440
takes to lose weight i guess i'm just a fat fuck and people give up okay and so when it comes to
00:18:16.480
success that same thing is happening right now in the success landscape you have a bunch of fucking
00:18:22.020
idiots who got an instagram account who haven't built shit talking about all this shit that they
00:18:27.880
haven't done telling these people that they're ultra successful when they're not okay and what's
00:18:34.160
happening is these people are seeing this and they're seeing these young people do this and
00:18:39.440
they're seeing this guy do this and they're seeing this girl do this and they're seeing this person do
00:18:43.000
this and what ends up happening is because they don't realize that these people are 98 percent full
00:18:49.180
of shit they start to blame themselves as to why it's not happening for them okay and what ends up
00:18:55.040
happening is because they didn't accept the mindset of aggressive patience where you have to fucking work
00:19:01.620
hard every motherfucking day and it's still going to take you five ten years minimum all right instead
00:19:07.100
of accepting that and understanding that instead of understanding how important discipline is to
00:19:12.520
accomplishing these personal goals and professional goals in your life instead of working to cultivate
00:19:17.860
discipline and suffering so that you can have this skill set intentionally what ends up happening is
00:19:23.780
they end up giving up and they give up because nobody's telling them the truth of what it actually
00:19:28.140
takes they're making it seem like it's fucking easy work from home and sit on my ass seven hours a day
00:19:35.660
uh you know fucking just run this internet program that i made and you'll make millions of dollars in
00:19:43.100
12 fucking days like bro that shit ruins people because it's teaching people that they are the problem
00:19:50.180
versus making them understand what they have to become to actually be who they want to be yeah okay and
00:19:56.480
that's a fucking bullshit way to be if you're a coach and you do that fuck you because you're ruining
00:20:01.260
people you're ruining people okay the truth of the matter is this it's hard it takes a long fucking
00:20:08.680
time you're gonna have to show up when you don't fucking feel like it and you're gonna have to do that
00:20:12.940
for fucking years that's reality you're gonna fall on your face in front of all your friends and family
00:20:17.500
you're gonna look like a fucking idiot you're gonna be embarrassed but if you're smart you'll learn how to not
00:20:22.420
do that more than once or twice and if you have the uh fortitude to continue to move down the path
00:20:28.100
you will start to learn understand how this works but the reality of it is is that most of the shit
00:20:33.620
is just marketing for people who are trying to take your money and get you to believe that you can be
00:20:39.680
fucking rich in 12 fucking days when you can't there's no fucking way all right you guys can fucking
00:20:46.560
hammer it out in the comments and think i don't know what the fuck i'm talking about but
00:20:50.060
uh let's go compare my results to their results and i'm perfectly confident with that with fucking
00:20:56.820
anybody on the internet okay i know what the fuck i'm talking about this is hard as fuck i'm pretty
00:21:03.320
seasoned entrepreneur i've been doing it 24 years day in and day out it's hard as fuck for me man i have
00:21:08.560
days where i want to quit in fact today i wanted to quit all right today and you can vouch for this
00:21:14.480
did i not cancel the recordings earlier today recordings were canceled at what like 10 yeah
00:21:19.420
yeah and what happened 10 30 i got my fucking ass up yeah and i fucking came here and i said
00:21:24.640
fuck that i'm not going to be a fucking bitch and i'm not letting these guys down i'm here today
00:21:28.780
because i'm not letting you motherfuckers down and that's the attitude you have to have to win
00:21:33.520
okay so you can listen to all these motherfuckers you can fucking keep believing that there's a fucking
00:21:39.320
diet pill it's going to make you lose a thousand pounds in a fucking day okay but i can promise you at
00:21:44.540
the end of this whole journey that you're going to go on to prove me wrong you're going to be in the
00:21:48.060
exact same place or worse and that goes with every single person out there trying to build something
00:21:53.680
you're better off committing to building yourself into a fucking machine okay of execution someone
00:22:00.660
who has strong levels of discipline this is why i created the fucking live hard program the 75 hard
00:22:05.780
program it's because when you create the discipline and you create the ability to endure and you learn
00:22:11.900
these things about yourself and you build your confidence up now you're the person who can go
00:22:17.420
execute for the next five years day in and day out when every other motherfucker is out there
00:22:23.540
looking at the fucking 19 year old life coach lying his ass off about what the fuck he's done
00:22:28.220
yeah okay it puts you at an extreme advantage and here's the thing you are in control of this 100
00:22:35.480
you are in control of it there's no fucking magic there's no luck to the work you put into yourself
00:22:41.280
it's a fucking grind you're going to be uncomfortable but if you push through you'll become someone that
00:22:47.740
can do things that other people can't and that's what you have to become to build anything that you
00:22:53.480
would admire as relevant that's the reality so let's talk about the god aspect of it okay i believe in
00:23:00.960
god but here's what i also believe and it's written in the bible that god does not reward people who are
00:23:06.740
lazy he rewards people who work he rewards people who treat people good he report rewards people who
00:23:12.240
make the effort to be better every single day says so in the fucking bible bro you haven't read it so
00:23:18.460
you don't know okay but here's the reality people people think that prayer doesn't work and that god
00:23:24.660
doesn't work no dude you're not doing your part yeah there's another half of that equation yes you're not
00:23:30.200
doing your part yeah you have to do your part you should look at it like a 50 deal like i'm gonna
00:23:36.860
pray i'm gonna hope that i get and i'm gonna do all these things to do the best i can be the best
00:23:41.900
kind of person i can and hopefully god will give me a little little help and that's the way that i
00:23:47.280
found it to work over the course of my life all right when i sat around i was lazy as fuck guess
00:23:52.420
what nothing happened doesn't matter how hard i pray but i tell you what whenever i was praying
00:23:58.260
and i was doing everything i can do things went a little faster than they did without it yeah so
00:24:03.740
that's that's the point you know you got a lot of people a lot of people will hide behind god
00:24:10.380
they will say oh you know what god wants me to be meek humble and this little bitty version of
00:24:16.280
myself bro ask yourself this what do you want for your own kids what do you want do you want your
00:24:23.180
kids to be poor broke stupid lazy and then hide and say oh i'm just humble or or do you want your
00:24:32.020
kids to go out accept that they have this ability to work very hard and improve themselves and along
00:24:38.500
the way lift other people up to improve themselves what would make you more proud as a parent
00:24:44.120
that's how god thinks about it too that's my opinion no so this ain't fucking easy there's nothing
00:24:52.700
easy about what we're talking about here it's hard and it's hard for everybody and it's anybody out
00:24:58.440
there pretending that it isn't hard is just pretending to be so skilled that it's easy for
00:25:03.500
them so that they will take your money i'm telling you right here compare my shit to any one of those
00:25:08.360
motherfuckers i'm telling you it's hard and it's hard for me it's hard every motherfucking day
00:25:13.020
it never gets easier the only way it gets easier is when you get better skills
00:25:16.620
love it man love it and question number two let's build off of it okay so i'm uh this person is on
00:25:24.740
he wants to become an entrepreneur okay uh the question is andy if i'm going to start a business
00:25:29.940
today okay outside of hard work discipline those things what are some fundamental foundation blocks
00:25:35.980
that i need to know up front before i even get started there aren't any you need to get started
00:25:41.700
okay what what you're going to do is you're going to sit there and you're i'm going to tell you the
00:25:46.540
foundational blocks and then you're going to think there's more foundational blocks that i didn't tell
00:25:50.360
you okay and then you're going to go read some more shit and you're going to go listen you know
00:25:54.140
andy said it's only this and this and this but what does ed think what does gary think what is what
00:25:59.920
so and so think right and they're going to you're going to go around you're going to keep searching
00:26:04.000
for this perfect little plan that that doesn't exist okay so here's my suggestion start and then
00:26:12.040
figure out what the foundation is for yourself but here's what i will tell you i'll give you a
00:26:16.300
free hack um learn to be disciplined yeah build discipline build discipline build fortitude build
00:26:23.640
grit build the ability to endure build confidence build self-esteem 75 hard and live hard okay
00:26:31.560
that's a shameless plug right there bro but the only reason it's shameless is because that's the
00:26:35.760
fucking truth yeah you can go much further with those skills than you can without them second
00:26:40.200
thing that you should do you should go back and listen to my last q and a f where i talked about
00:26:44.900
what i did to become able to maintain to build relationships with people i didn't know how did
00:26:51.600
i get comfortable being an extrovert combine those two foundational blocks motherfucker and you got
00:26:56.100
everything you need merry christmas all right yeah and you don't even need those because i didn't
00:27:01.040
have them when i started those are things i learned at 15 16 17 years in yeah all right so there's no
00:27:09.660
excuse for you to not start there's been lots of people that are just as uneducated and unaware as you
00:27:15.540
that have started and become everything that they dreamed of becoming because entrepreneurship is not
00:27:21.820
about having the fucking plan it's about figuring it out as you go and most people want to have the
00:27:27.420
plan they want to know every detail they want to know what it's going to take they want to know how
00:27:31.420
many hours a day it's going to take they want to know what money motherfucker it's going to take
00:27:35.860
everything it's going to take everything so just understand it's going to take everything you fucking
00:27:41.340
got for as long as you're in it and understand that's what you're signing up for and if you
00:27:46.000
understand that you'll be successful if you think anything less than that you won't be you'll get
00:27:50.280
crushed because there's enough people in the game, whatever path you choose, whatever industry you
00:27:55.920
decide to get into, there's enough people in those industries, in those games that are giving
00:28:01.220
everything. I give everything, bro. I'm in this. This is my 24th year. I give it fucking everything.
00:28:10.660
Okay. If you're not willing to give that, how can you compete when there's people like that
00:28:14.700
in every industry? And by the way, in my industry, there's a whole bunch of motherfuckers that do
00:28:18.660
that. I had the only one. And that's the same for every industry. It's everything, dude.
00:28:25.440
Let me ask you this. Have you found that? Entrepreneurship is not a fucking job.
00:28:29.220
Yeah. It's not a fucking job. It's a fucking complete lifestyle. It's all the time. Everywhere
00:28:35.480
you go, you're never off. You never clock out. There's no, there is no, you could go on vacation
00:28:40.380
and you're going to see someone who recognizes you or knows you, and you're going to have to do
00:28:44.760
business. It never ends. It's a full commitment. It's a lifestyle. Yeah. That's what I'm saying.
00:28:51.000
Like, can we just get rid of this notion now? Have you found that 24 years in you're giving
00:28:55.500
more now than you did? No question. 24 years ago. No question. And you know why I give more now
00:29:00.300
and why, why I progressively gave more because my purpose is no longer myself. My, when your purpose
00:29:07.440
is other people and bigger causes, you give more when your purpose is yourself, you give less.
00:29:12.260
Okay. So I figured out just like I said a minute ago, the reason I'm here today is not for me.
00:29:19.500
Okay. I don't have to fucking continue to do any of the shit that I do, but the reason I'm here
00:29:24.980
today is because I owe it to you, you, you five dudes sitting right here who worked their ass off
00:29:31.140
every motherfucking day to come in and produce this show and put it out. You see what I'm saying?
00:29:36.420
Now, if I was doing it for me, I would say, fuck that. I don't, I don't fucking care. I'm going to
00:29:42.440
stay at home today. You don't need it. Yeah. Yeah. You see what I'm saying? So that's, and the other
00:29:47.440
thing is, the other reason I go harder now is because I understand the game so well and how it
00:29:52.060
works. I know that if I like, if I could put a little more in, I know what I'm going to get out
00:29:55.940
on the backside. So it gets me excited too. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, for sure.
00:29:59.920
But a dude, it's never easy. It's never fucking easy. Like, dude, I couldn't tell you the last day
00:30:06.400
I had that was easy. Like, it's not, and I'm not just saying that for like sound tough or whatever,
00:30:13.840
bro. I'm a fucking pussy, bro. Okay. Like, let's be real. I'm not a fucking Goggins. I'm not fucking
00:30:18.860
Jocko. I didn't fucking go do this shit. The reason I got to do live hard and 75 hard every day,
00:30:23.460
all the time and consistent throughout my life is because I'm not that tough. I have to work hard. I have to
00:30:28.720
give what the fuck I have. Okay. Like that's, that's me being aware of my skillset and understanding
00:30:34.760
what I have to do to play on the level that I'm on. You see what I'm saying? It's required. Yeah.
00:30:39.660
It's required shit. Like I'm competing against every single day, motherfuckers that are much
00:30:44.480
smarter than me that are more well-funded than me. You know, like when I look at my competition,
00:30:49.160
I don't, I'm looking at fucking Nike, bro. I'm not like, like you guys all think, Oh, the first
00:30:54.640
forums, the biggest motherfucker. We haven't done shit yet. Like, that's not how I
00:30:58.700
look at it. I look at it like, fuck dude. We're like a booger on their fucking nose.
00:31:02.640
We got a long way to go. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. For sure. So there's no like,
00:31:07.320
which people think when I say this shit that I'm being some sort of tough guy, I'm not
00:31:12.820
fucking bro. I'm just telling you the truth. Yeah. I'm just telling you what the fuck it
00:31:16.600
takes. That's the truth. Unless you have a bunch of gifts that I don't have, which you
00:31:22.020
may, but I didn't have them. I'm just telling you what it took for me and you guys can fucking
00:31:26.500
judge that however the fuck you want. You know, I see comments sometimes. This guy
00:31:29.840
fucking thinks he's a bad. No, actually the reason that I do all this shit is because I
00:31:33.820
know I'm not a bad-ass get it. Right. Like that's why the fuck I do it. If I thought I
00:31:38.340
was so fucking bad-ass, why the fuck would I do it? Exactly. Exactly. I love it, man.
00:31:44.160
It's necessity, bro. It's required work for me, somebody who doesn't really possess anything
00:31:48.480
special to operate on the level that I'm at. That's what it takes. I assume that most of
00:31:54.360
you are similar to me. You probably come from regular places. You probably come from regular
00:31:59.080
families. You probably have fucked up shit happened to you in your life. You probably
00:32:03.180
fucking struggle with most everything. That's who, that's the kind of person I am. I'm not
00:32:08.100
a fucking quote unquote gifted winner. Like I've, my winning has come from me having to
00:32:15.160
fucking get my ass beat and learn enough and then constantly make the commitment into getting
00:32:20.460
better every single day, you know, over the course of decades. Yeah. So like I, and that's
00:32:25.760
why I'm, that's why I get so irritated, dude, when I talk, cause it's like, motherfucker,
00:32:28.880
I know what you can do. Yeah. You know how I know what you could do because I was just
00:32:32.280
like you and I fucking did it. So it's not like this tough guy shit. It's just, I'm trying
00:32:37.520
to tell you and shake you and say, Hey motherfucker, quit looking for that fucking easy route and
00:32:41.900
just accept this route because this is the short route. This is the route that's going to
00:32:45.220
get you the fastest. It's kind of funny. Cause you were saying that I was thinking
00:32:48.000
about that quote, you know, people say like, Oh, I was just too stupid to quit.
00:32:51.060
That's it. That was it. Well, dude, for me, it wasn't stupidity. It was, I didn't have
00:32:56.020
other options. Okay. I don't, I didn't have a choice. All right. Now I was stupid, but I'm
00:33:02.500
just saying like eventually in business, you like even today, bro, that's still drives me
00:33:08.280
like that, that mentality of zero option mentality. Like I don't have a choice, bro, because I know
00:33:14.040
that if everything crumbles, I don't have anything to fall back on. Now, now that that's a lie
00:33:18.980
now, right? Like if everything fucking went away, I have the skills to rebuild shit. I can rebuild
00:33:25.020
it and I can rebuild multiple different things any way I wanted to. But, but the point is,
00:33:31.020
as I keep it in me on purpose because it keeps me moving and it keeps me driven and it keeps
00:33:36.140
me effective. And, uh, you know, I think that you guys just need to quit looking for these
00:33:41.520
fucking shortcuts, bro. And realize that the shortest shortcut is you investing in your
00:33:46.500
discipline, uh, investing in your people skills, getting fucking started and then figuring it
00:33:51.700
out on the way. That's, that's how, that's how the fuck you do it. You know, analyzing for
00:33:55.740
the proper schematics. Yeah. Like, and then it compared, let me compare what so-and-so said
00:34:02.240
to so-and-so and so-and-so. Bro, the reason that everybody has different things to say is
00:34:06.140
because there's so many different ways to fucking get it done, but they all require the same
00:34:10.760
shit. Yeah. They require you moving and doing shit. Yeah. That's real, man. Well, guys,
00:34:20.120
Andy, our third and final question, question number three, Andy, I am 37 years old and I
00:34:25.640
literally have no real friends that I can relate to. As a child, I moved around a lot. So I never
00:34:30.920
really made great friendships growing up. Now, as an adult, I struggle with making friendships.
00:34:35.560
I've spent the last seven years pouring into my personal development and I feel like I've
00:34:40.040
reinvented myself and would like to go out and meet like-minded people, but I don't know where
00:34:45.160
to really start. How would I go about finding like-minded people that I can build relationships
00:34:49.540
with? Well, fuck man. I mean, we've only have the most connected universe that we've ever had in
00:34:56.880
eternity. It's not that hard. You know, it's hard because you're saying it's hard. It's not that
00:35:02.300
hard. What are you interested in? Oh, you're clearly interested in personal development. There's
00:35:07.120
whole entire cultures built around personal development. I happen to run one, Arte Syndicate.
00:35:12.040
It's massive fucking culture there, but there's plenty of others as well. Are you interested in
00:35:17.780
fitness? Fitness has a great culture. There's lots of people that you can meet, you know, like there's
00:35:22.520
groups that you can join that, you know, like a lot of people come into Arte and they join the group
00:35:28.280
and they start learning shit. And then all of a sudden, like some of their best friends become people
00:35:31.860
who are in Arte. And now you've got some great friends that are aligned with you on what it is that
00:35:35.500
you want. You know, I can empathize with this question because, you know, I had a lot of friends
00:35:40.240
when I started my business. And as my business progressed, I had less and less friends. And I
00:35:45.900
went through this phase where what he's talking about, right around his same age too, where I felt
00:35:51.160
like I had no friends. And the reason I felt like I had no friends is because my priorities in my life
00:35:56.580
were not aligned with what my old friends' lives were. And that's not a knock on them. I still love
00:36:04.180
them. They're great friends, but like you feel lonely when you're the only one on a certain path.
00:36:09.120
Right. So I think it's important for you to recognize that you need to be friends with people
00:36:13.580
who are on your path. So you have shit in common to talk about. Like I got to a certain point in
00:36:19.560
business where I would go to dinner with old friends and like, we'd start, they'd say, well,
00:36:22.580
how's business going? I started talking about it and they perceive it as bragging.
00:36:25.920
Right. Okay. Well, I'm just, you just fucking ask me, bro. I'm just telling you.
00:36:29.360
Right. You know, so it's very hard to have genuine relationships with people that aren't
00:36:33.920
on the same path as you. So I would suggest looking into some groups that you are interested
00:36:38.380
in. Maybe you're into motorcycles, join a motorcycle group. Maybe you're into fitness,
00:36:42.240
join a fucking fit, join a gym, uh, you know, start following some of the fitness hashtags.
00:36:46.940
You know, I like, there's lots of ways to meet people, bro. And like, you know, if you want to
00:36:51.180
meet people online, don't be a fucking creep. Like don't be sending fucking DMs being like,
00:36:55.260
oh yeah, I saw you. And, uh, we, I wanted to be friend, be your friend. Like that's not,
00:36:59.000
like, that's not, that's not how the fuck it works, bro. You get engaged in a comment section,
00:37:03.820
you know, start supporting them. They show you some love back and you kind of let it foster from
00:37:08.340
there. But I empathize with this guy because like, dude, I went through that phase two and it
00:37:12.580
fucking sucks. Let me ask you this. Would you say to like, I feel like you had mentioned we're more
00:37:18.880
connected now than ever, but I think that's also, there's a detriment there though, right? Like
00:37:22.640
we are connected, but we're still not in reality. Not exactly. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I think that's
00:37:27.840
important. Why that's why it's important to, you know, I'm talking about actually making the,
00:37:31.620
the, the introduction initial has never been easier, but the actual fostering the regular
00:37:36.100
real relationship has actually never been harder. So I could get that, you know, important thing to
00:37:40.880
remember to an entrepreneurship, personal development is there's that saying, you know,
00:37:45.340
it's only at the top. Okay. Motherfucker. Are you at the top? Do you know, are you up there?
00:37:52.000
How's the weather up there? Right. Right. Right. You don't fucking know if it's lonely at the top
00:37:56.320
because you ain't at the fucking top. You're just repeating some shit that somebody else said.
00:38:00.380
So let me tell you how it actually works. When you start out, you got lots of friends and then you
00:38:05.760
go down this path and you get to a point where, you know, your friends are like, man, you're obsessed
00:38:11.340
or man, what, you know, when you get a real job, like they told me, or when you're going to give up on
00:38:15.980
these dreams and they start pulling you back. So you fucking cut them loose and you keep going down the
00:38:21.340
path and you find yourself here. Okay. And you find some success, you built some things,
00:38:26.540
you're doing okay. And you're like, fuck, it's true. It's lonely at the top. No, motherfucker,
00:38:33.060
you are misjudging the top. You are in the middle of a phase. Okay. Cause your, your business is not
00:38:40.180
number one in the world. You're not the fucking top. You're in a phase. You have outgrown your
00:38:45.680
original friends and you have yet to connect with the friends at the next level. Okay. I call this
00:38:50.560
no man's land. Entrepreneurs spend a lot of time in no man's land because they, they, they are
00:38:55.800
constantly leveling up. Now, what will happen is if you keep going, you will end up aligning with a
00:39:01.020
group of people who are all on the same path as you and your friendships will be far more rewarding,
00:39:06.160
uh, way more fun, just better in general in every single way. Okay. And you'll have a healthier,
00:39:13.620
happier group of friends because everybody's aligned. All right. But what, but, but here's
00:39:18.580
what happens again. Right. So if you want to fucking level up and you want to keep going,
00:39:22.180
shift that right over here and it works the exact same way. Again, you start out growing these,
00:39:27.820
these first tier success friends. All right. And the difference is these first tier success friends
00:39:33.820
usually don't hate on you for trying to get bigger. They usually support you. Yeah. So it
00:39:37.620
actually doesn't, it's not the same in the beginning, only in the beginning do they hate,
00:39:41.880
but they might get a little jealous, but in general they'll support you because they think it's cool
00:39:46.200
and it's inspiring. Right. But you'll find yourself a little bit detached from these guys
00:39:50.780
and not quite on this level yet. Right. And the process will repeat and that process will repeat
00:39:57.620
as long as you want to go until you find yourself with Elon Musk at fucking dinner. Yeah. Okay. Like
00:40:03.100
that's where the fuck it ends. Yeah. But at the end of the day, man, you know,
00:40:07.240
that saying is total bullshit. Yeah. And anybody who says it doesn't know what the fuck they're
00:40:11.120
talking about. Nor are they there. No, they're fucked. No, they're not there. Look at their
00:40:14.340
fucking life, bro. You're in your mom's basement. You never hear, you never, ever hear someone truly
00:40:22.120
successful say that fucking saying. They don't fucking say it because it ain't true. You only hear people
00:40:27.240
who have quit on their own dreams, their own desires, their own things that they've wanted
00:40:33.380
their entire life. Okay. And given up, that's who you hear it from. And they use it as an excuse.
00:40:38.760
Just like I mentioned a couple of questions ago about how people hide behind God for the reason
00:40:43.160
why they don't do shit. Um, those people will use this as an excuse and be like, you know what?
00:40:48.540
I did that. It was so lonely at the top. I'd, I'd rather have great friends. You don't even know
00:40:54.040
what great friends are because you haven't earned the great friends. When you go through this
00:40:58.200
process, bro, these people in the first, at the beginning, these are just motherfuckers you hang
00:41:01.960
out with. These are people that you can tolerate. These are people that you drink beer with or smoke
00:41:07.080
weed with and you have a good time. Yeah. Okay. They're not your fucking real friends. Those people
00:41:12.300
aren't supporting you. They're not helping you. They're not making calls on your behalf. They're not
00:41:16.080
fucking helping you finance your next business. They're not, these, those are not your fucking
00:41:20.480
friends, bro. In fact, they're asking, why aren't you showing up to drink? Why aren't you showing
00:41:25.520
up to smoke this and that? You know, like they're, they're pulling you back. Okay. So you have to
00:41:31.560
understand your real friends. You haven't even met them yet because you're real friends. You have to
00:41:36.640
go through this fucking no man's land to find the people that you truly align with that will help you
00:41:42.120
progress your life. And that's, that's the thing. So like, you know, don't tell me about friends
00:41:47.260
when you ain't even had any yet. Well, guys, that was, that's the show, man. Yeah. That was three.
00:41:52.460
Don't pay the fee. Yep. Don't be a hoe. Share the show.
00:41:55.800
Went from sleeping on the floor. Now my jewelry box froze. Fuck a pole. Fuck a stove. Counted millions
00:42:01.860
in the cold. Bad bitch. Booty swole. Got her on bankroll. Can't fold. Doesn't know. Headshot. Case closed.
