grumpy by the way was on a 75 hard versus episode what episode is that we looked that up real quick
00:02:44.760
i just watched him on the parking lot run a mile with a hundred pounds in eight minutes and 30 seconds
00:02:53.600
i don't know if it was actually 8 30 but it was 8 29 sub nine it was right there yeah within a second
00:02:59.360
or two of 8 30 un-fucking-real dude unreal unreal fucking human being let me ask you this who's
00:03:06.640
ran a hundred miles okay oh he's a he's an insane human the guys yeah let me let me ask you this
00:03:11.740
though andy right like obviously will did not come out the womb fucking curling gallon jugs of milk
00:03:17.740
right like how in your in your in in your opinion right when you look at shit like that like what's
00:03:23.800
the equation how did how did will get to that today right like what what's the formula there maybe
00:03:28.300
he's been committed for the last i mean shit i bet he's been here nine years eight years you know
00:03:35.460
i watched him come in our company as a minimum wage employee i watched him work his way up and now
00:03:40.260
he's one of the main executives here at the company he's 30 years old uh fucking i i just pushes
00:03:47.440
and pushes and pushes and pushes and pushes and has built himself into this person and it's it's
00:03:52.800
frustrating i know for will because we've talked about it a bunch it's frustrating for me too when
00:03:58.300
people see him and they're like oh dude he's just born that way you're fucking insane like you said he
00:04:03.380
came out like nobody's coming out curling gallons of milk no this motherfucker came out in ding-dongs
00:04:08.820
and ho-hos bro go look at his pictures when he grew up he was fat he grew up fat he got bullied
00:04:14.180
he got made fun of he was a fat kid he was fat young adult he was a pudgy dude when he came here
00:04:19.480
all right and he's just built himself into this beast and it it's frustrating when people think
00:04:26.040
that he just like is that way it's like it's like kind of like that story i tell about my guitar teacher
00:04:31.880
you know where where i talked to him uh matthew and i was like man you're so talented and he looked
00:04:38.580
at me like with like a death stare disgust yeah i was pissed when i said it and at first i was like
00:04:44.040
damn dude because like this guy's real chill joe knows him real chill real chill cool ass dude
00:04:48.640
he looked at me with like a like a death look and i'm like oh shit he's like dude i've been playing
00:04:54.700
guitar longer than you've been alive yeah and i'm like oh i got it right you know what i'm saying yeah
00:05:01.040
yeah and then we should always be very careful to make judgments about where people are because
00:05:05.960
most exceptional people most people they're doing these things that you look at and you're like
00:05:10.400
holy shit they started out just like you you just didn't see that part you just didn't get to see it
00:05:15.880
you're seeing the end result yeah you're not seeing the yeah countless days of waking up at 4 a.m
00:05:20.920
training hard that motherfucker gets up at three o'clock every day every day i don't know a single
00:05:25.560
person works harder than that yeah not a single person yeah not a single person it's it's truly
00:05:31.080
inspiring and seeing him do that seeing him do that that mile just now like this guy's going
00:05:35.900
out doing shit that people would kill to do once in their life on his fucking lunch break right yeah
00:05:43.140
dude he's over in his office he's back in his office yeah like it's just dude it's just cool
00:05:50.200
to be a part of this company yeah like being around these kind of people because like there's a number
00:05:54.340
of people in this building that do ridiculous stuff all the time 50 miles 100 miles 24 hour runs
00:06:01.360
um i mean dude just you name it it's getting done around here and it's getting done by not just like
00:06:07.660
one person it's getting done by like a big portion of the team it's it's really fucking special to be
00:06:14.460
inspiring shit yeah man it makes me grateful dude like it really does and as frustrating as business
00:06:19.220

00:06:55.200
here minimum wage dude pretty chubby young kid didn't know too much and has built himself into a
00:07:01.220
bad ass human being all the way around and by the way he's probably the nicest and best dude in this
00:07:07.960
building too which is like there's not i've never seen will had a bad day no no he hasn't he just

00:07:22.200
you need i know bro yeah he's a fucking awesome dude so anyway i love it man well it is q a guys
00:07:28.200
and uh i got something else that's shocking what's that i got some good ones for you oh dj's got some
00:07:34.980
good ones yeah man let's get into these lock these out guys andy question number one andy i'm in the
00:07:41.840
beauty industry it seems like most people in my area they're raising their prices artists uh who
00:07:49.400
are newer than me are charging more than i am you previously mentioned not raising prices in a
00:07:54.640
recession economy that we're in if you don't have to uh and that has been my mindset i'm starting to
00:08:00.260
wonder though if i'm giving myself less value for charging less or am i just staying competitive
00:08:06.600
how do you look at this is there a better option well the first thing to understand is that most
00:08:11.820
prices are not going to come back down okay the market is fundamentally changed now because there's
00:08:17.180
been so many trillions of extra dollars that have been printed that the actual value of things
00:08:23.480
cost more even though it's not more and so there's an acclimation period to this massive influx
00:08:30.340
which we call inflation but an influx of money that creates a situation where this same water
00:08:37.300
that was two dollars a year ago is now three dollars but it still feels like two dollars because
00:08:43.340
there's more money in the market yeah there's no more water in that bottle it's not yeah gotcha so
00:08:48.840
it's a perception that takes time for the economy to adjust to where you really get in trouble is when
00:08:54.500
it starts to hyperinflate and that's where that could happen but in terms of raising your
00:09:00.120
prices right now i feel like we're in a situation where people are starting to understand that
00:09:07.160
things are costing more and i don't think you're going to hurt yourself by raising your prices to
00:09:14.620
at least reflect the amount of inflation we have which is more or less around 10 okay so you have to
00:09:21.460
adjust with the market to maintain the profit the proper profitability so that you could stay in
00:09:27.500
business and then that way because what happens if you don't as a you know you're in the beauty
00:09:32.700
industry and i assume you're doing hair and things like that um maybe selling those kind of goods or
00:09:40.300
whatever right you're in a situation where if you don't adjust that margin that means that you are
00:09:48.000
going to feel the cut in the value on your own life does that make sense yeah so it's an acclimation
00:09:54.240
period i think most i mean most americans by this point are understanding like shit just cost more
00:09:58.900
money uh and unfortunately we've got a government that's running wild that decides they can do this as
00:10:04.560
much as they want and you know and they still take our tax which is totally messed up you know if
00:10:09.160
they could print money whenever they want why are they taking half of ours right i think that's a
00:10:12.660
relevant question that we all need to ask but um at the end of the day man you have to run a business
00:10:18.000
and a lot of people put themselves out of business because they're afraid to raise prices when it's
00:10:22.560
required so the reason that i recommend keeping your prices the same in the beginning is because
00:10:29.140
when everybody else raises your price they're going to start looking the the consumer behavior is to
00:10:33.640
look for the cheaper option because they're not acclimated to the things actually costing more
00:10:37.940
does that make sense you know what i'm saying right yeah right so at first they're panicking they're
00:10:42.380
like fuck cheap i gotta find the cheaper thing that's when you benefit from keeping your prices low
00:10:46.760
but when everybody else has raised them you're actually hurting yourself by not raising with the
00:10:50.720
market yeah so well i'm because she's i'm sure you know the price of hair gel all that stuff is
00:10:54.900
raising up too right yeah she's paying more you can't put yourself out of business dude right it's
00:10:58.640
reality like it's a math equation you have to make a certain amount of margin that's what it is
00:11:02.820
and every business is beholden to that or they go out of business so just understand your situation
00:11:07.520
is not unique i wouldn't fear it i wouldn't stress out over it i would just do it and you're going to
00:11:12.160
have three or four people that are going to say some stuff and you know the reality is is
00:11:16.320
anywhere they go there's going to be 10 more cost yeah that's just what it is and and the
00:11:21.300
companies that don't raise their price those companies are going to be in a race to the bottom
00:11:24.960
and they will hurt their company potentially put their company out of business by not adjusting in
00:11:29.840
the market thinking that they're going to capture all the customers i'm just going to tell you no
00:11:34.680
matter how good you are no matter how cheap you are no matter how well known you are can never
00:11:38.580
capture all the customers so it's a failed strategy a lot of people think i can be cheap cheap cheap cheap
00:11:44.840
cheap cheap cheap and then eventually i'll get all the customers and i'll raise the price but here's
00:11:48.820
the problem with that you're training your customers to shop with you on exclusively only price so the
00:11:54.480
minute that you adjust price your customers run away all right so it's a it's a flawed thinking it
00:12:00.780
doesn't work it's not good for a brand it's not good for a business um and it doesn't work
00:12:05.860
mathematically so i would say that where we are right now at least at this point in time like today
00:12:10.980
everywhere i go shit's more expensive everywhere i go to eat it's more expensive every business that
00:12:17.380
i'm involved in cost of goods has gone up and we've had to raise prices and customers you know
00:12:23.000
generally understand yeah but but let me ask you this though right like the only reason the customers
00:12:28.840
would understand but more more importantly accept the the price raise is because that good or service
00:12:36.640
is fucking exceptional right so like with that would you tell her like that should be the focus
00:12:41.320
like making sure that that product or that service that you're supplying is the best it
00:12:44.860
possibly can be yeah i mean that's a fundamental goal of business i mean i it depends it depends on
00:12:49.720
where you're going to play yeah okay there's three levels of business that you can play in there's
00:12:53.460
good better and best okay you could be good which really is the cheap option okay you could be
00:12:58.660
better which is you know you got mcdonald's which is the cheapest burger you got five
00:13:03.700
five guys which is the better burger that's what they call the whole concept and then you got
00:13:07.660
twisted tree right best fucking burger you can get okay and or billy g's i'm not going to
00:13:13.120
slide my homies all right you're going to get gourmet burger okay so it's good better best and
00:13:19.580
you have to make a decision about which category your brand is going to be in and you have to operate in
00:13:25.320
that category i personally like to operate in the best category because i am a best category
00:13:31.420
consumer myself i want the best and specifically for what we do which is consumable goods i when i
00:13:38.980
go to consume things i want them to be the best i'm putting them on my body okay so we work to be
00:13:43.840
the best there um that it costs more to be the best it costs more to be better it costs the least
00:13:50.260
amount to be best but the cool thing about deciding where you are and playing in is when you understand
00:13:56.420
where the customer is you don't piss them off by doing dumb shit all right so like
00:14:01.340
if you're the cheap option okay you have to understand that that's why the customers are there
00:14:08.760
and that's where price will fuck you especially in this kind of situation where it's volatile in the
00:14:13.400
economy if you're a better category a little bit more stability if you're a best category it almost
00:14:18.160
insulates you from recessions because the people have to have money to shop with you anyway
00:14:21.700
okay so i like best category options when i build a company i try to if i can move ourselves into the
00:14:30.120
best category and then work really hard to maintain that standard and actually be the best and that
00:14:34.620
takes constant improvement constant involvement constant learning it's a different process um but
00:14:39.800
i'm more comfortable with it and i think it's better for your brand uh if you understand how to play
00:14:45.080
it yeah but there's opportunities for all i think the cool thing about being in the best category
00:14:50.180
is what is that you are definitely more stable through price volatility in the economy because
00:14:58.160
dude like if you're selling like ferrari still selling the same amount of ferraris bro you know
00:15:03.780
what i'm saying like because the people that can afford them aren't fucking getting hurt by what's
00:15:07.180
going on you see what i'm saying so that's what we have to think about yeah i love that uh guys
00:15:13.280
andy question number two uh andy my fiancee and i own a tattoo shop in ohio i try to handle the
00:15:20.520
social media accounts including his personal instagram our shop instagram shop facebook page
00:15:26.420
along with our email and phones as well we do not post much anymore due to being so busy it doesn't
00:15:33.160
cross our minds as much and i think we should post more to get more engagement do you find using
00:15:38.840
social media to be that important for small businesses uh we're growing at a fast pace uh as
00:15:44.820
it uh as is without much engagement online do you think i should put extra effort towards it or should
00:15:50.740
i just focus on the business uh reinvesting in the day-to-day activities of the business
00:15:54.800
there's a lot to that question um the number one priority is creating an experience and a product
00:16:04.540
that that a story is told about that's the number one thing your your business of tattooing is going
00:16:09.900
to grow based off word of mouth just by the nature of what tattooing is um should you be using
00:16:16.780
instagram should you be using these platforms i would say yes because it's free and it allows you to
00:16:22.640
tell even if it's 10 people that's 10 more people that you didn't have or told anything to
00:16:29.200
right so those all add up over time um i think a lot of businesses get so heavy into their social media
00:16:37.660
initiatives that they forget about the real thing that matters which is the customer experience and
00:16:45.620
the product solving the problem in a way that is sneezable meaning that customers will tell a story
00:16:52.300
about it so it's kind of like looking at it in two different ways okay you have your full offense
00:16:59.660
which is your advertising which is how you get new leads and then you have your ability to replicate
00:17:05.480
word of mouth based upon the ability to deliver an experience that is worth talking about and so
00:17:11.740
in tattooing specifically right like the quality of the tattoo matters but also it goes back into the
00:17:18.600
branding thing i just talked about in the last question there is good better and best tattoos
00:17:23.180
for sure all right so it just depends on where you are like my my tattoo artist eric marcinizen he does
00:17:29.100
entire and it works entirely off word of mouth all right now he has an instagram he hasn't posted on
00:17:34.180
in years and years and years but his shit is so good that people know who he is stories are told about
00:17:40.800
him and he stays busy as much as he wants to be he doesn't he doesn't have to do anything all right
00:17:47.400
and also there is something to be said for creating scarcity and unavailability all right so you going
00:17:56.660
out and posting four times a day creates a feeling of desperation whereas you posting once a month
00:18:03.840
creates more of a feeling of exclusivity and you have to decide what that right balance is for you
00:18:09.260
all right um well what would separate that like if you're putting that out there and you know you'll get
00:18:14.460
you get 100 new leads but you ain't got if you can't fulfill them what difference does it make
00:18:17.820
right and the other thing too so here's another way to look at it and this is how i would personally
00:18:21.880
look at it i would look at it like okay well what what else could i sell what could i do if i if i ran
00:18:28.640
my social and we did it consistently i'm already booked because i'm trading time for money right we're
00:18:34.200
trading a service there's only so much you can do all right so your only option to make more money
00:18:38.140
is to raise prices if you're booked out so if you could go out and get a whole bunch of leads based
00:18:43.060
upon this amazing work that allows you to be booked out for a year straight you should do it and you
00:18:48.180
should figure out something else to sell these people maybe it's something like tattoo butter maybe
00:18:52.460
it's something like tattoo aftercare maybe it's something else maybe it's something else that people
00:18:58.160
who are into tattoos would also be into but what you're doing by displaying this tattoo work that is
00:19:03.480
obviously high quality because you're so booked based off of people just talking about it is
00:19:08.320
you're building a list of leads that are now interested at least somewhat in what it is you're
00:19:13.020
trying to do and if you could find some ancillary supportive products to sell now you have a new
00:19:17.780
revenue stream that's not based upon just trading your time for money right all right so that's how i
00:19:22.360
would look at it right then that that's in so that means do social media yeah okay and then collect
00:19:27.840
build the following and then use the following to market something else and then this is what's
00:19:35.000
called vertically integrated like that that is what vertical integration is no not really vertical
00:19:40.480
integration this is just ancillary offerings got so complementary offerings vertical integration would
00:19:46.660
be like how we run our companies where i own the stores that they're sold in i own the products
00:19:52.460
that are made i own some of the places the ingredients come from down to some of the farms
00:19:57.780
that some of our ingredients come from all right so we own a piece of the process all the way from
00:20:02.820
the farm all the way to our stores where we sell it that's vertical integration gotcha you see what i'm
00:20:08.300
saying so it's a different concept similar thing yeah but uh but different gotcha makes sense i like it
00:20:15.320
do you think do you think i mean you got i guess you kind of answered so i mean because when the social
00:20:19.920
media thing came a lot of businesses jumped on it but you you're stressing on the importance of not
00:20:25.660
putting too much focus on the social media but make sure making sure you're building the experience
00:20:30.280
part on the back end well that's important so the reason the experience and and the solving of the
00:20:36.100
problem because the reason i say solving of the problem is because that's why businesses exist
00:20:40.220
and you ask most people hey why what's the point of a business they say this exact same thing they say
00:20:44.740
to make money the point of the business is not to make money the making money is the byproduct
00:20:48.900
of the problem that you're solving and how well that you solve it and most most importantly do you
00:20:54.160
solve it in a way that people talk about okay because people only really buy from word of mouth
00:20:58.740
i know people think that they buy from ads and they do okay i know think people think that they buy from
00:21:04.660
you know uh basically everything that would fall into the idea of advertising but advertising is more
00:21:12.880
about awareness than it is about conversion and actually what converts the most is word of mouth this is why
00:21:17.640
in most great ad campaigns it's testimonials all right so when you think about why you buy shit
00:21:23.600
you might see the rock wear some shit right and you're like fuck that's cool but you won't really
00:21:27.940
buy it until you see your buddy wearing it too and you say hey is that shit really that cool and he's
00:21:33.240
like fuck yeah and then you buy it all right so that's how it works with the human psyche just
00:21:37.860
happened to me well listen so so so having the process of the experience in place is the most
00:21:46.020
important thing and people usually put that last when it should come first because here's the thing
00:21:50.800
when you go out and spend a ton of money on ads or social media presence or all these things to get new
00:21:56.380
leads they come in and buy if they buy from your your company or your service whatever it is and they get a
00:22:03.820
terrible experience we live in this in this uh ecosystem now of social media where people can tell
00:22:10.280
every single person they've ever met from kindergarten to now what they thought of this particular thing
00:22:16.700
so if you go out and spend doing a heavy ad spend and you don't have the ability to fulfill and create
00:22:22.240
the experience you're never going to collect customers and accumulate uh customers at mass so it becomes a
00:22:28.340
flow-through business customer comes in customer goes out and no matter how many how much you guys think
00:22:33.100
there are a limited amount of customers so the best way is um well the only way is is to build that
00:22:40.080
first part the the retention part the part that's going to get people to talk about it the experience
00:22:44.340
part and then pump ad ad leads into it once you got that system yeah and if you don't have it's like
00:22:50.400
holes in a bucket the way i explain it is like holes in the bucket okay you have a bucket all right
00:22:55.280
and inside this bucket you're trying to fill with customers and most companies when they start up
00:23:01.620
they don't really know what they're doing so there's naturally some holes in the bucket
00:23:05.060
all right so what do they think they think we need more customers they think that's the problem
00:23:09.460
the problem isn't that you need more customers bro the problem is that you need to keep the customers
00:23:13.820
that you're getting and you need them to go talk about how great of a fucking company you are
00:23:17.100
okay so what people do is they go spend a ton of ad revenue to put people in the bucket when it's
00:23:22.980
still got holes in it the customer goes in and comes out and on the other side the customer
00:23:26.940
comes out and says negative things about your business which only speeds the demise of your
00:23:31.500
business puts more holes in them that's correct so so what you have to do is build your bucket
00:23:36.060
and get as many of those holes plugged as you can to start and then your customers when you turn on
00:23:41.640
the ads they will tell you where the other holes are and if you pay attention you can patch those too
00:23:45.400
and then all of a sudden the level of customers in your bucket starts to rise all right now you got
00:23:50.020
something going because now you're creating a situation where you have critical mass on word of mouth
00:23:54.240
which spreads which helps your brand grow this is how you build a brand this is how you build a real
00:24:00.380
business most people out here right now are trained on e-com techniques or funnels or value ladders or
00:24:07.280
all these things which are super valuable but nobody really talks about outside of me actually fucking
00:24:12.880
keeping them and building an amazing brand with them so a lot of you young bucks are missing the whole
00:24:17.200
fucking point because you're you're you're you're this is why you have to switch things this is why you
00:24:22.360
continue to have to switch things the reason you have to continue to go from widget to widget to
00:24:26.220
widget to widget to widget is because you're not able to collect the customers because you're not
00:24:29.980
actually providing what you're promising them so this is common sense give them what the fuck you
00:24:34.680
promise give them more than you promise all right and they will go out and market your shit for you
00:24:39.640
they'll tell everybody how great you are and your level of customers will go up and when your level
00:24:43.720
of customers goes up they all talk to each other and now you have this big conversation happening all
00:24:48.880
over the internet and in the world that's driving people to your business it's a huge deal to
00:24:53.700
understand this concept it's really everything dude change your fucking life if you're a business
00:24:59.740
person love that man build build the product build the experience solve the customer's problem
00:25:07.340
once you're good at that and and really good to the point where when they shop with you they should
00:25:13.920
be saying holy shit this is amazing once you get to that point that's where you start to dump ads
00:25:19.440
i love it i love it guys andy our third and final question by the way this is what we do in rt syndicate
00:25:28.120

00:26:06.360
highly qualified uh real people who are doing things and you learn from real people who are
00:26:11.540
doing who have done real shit all right it's it is what it is man yeah and rt you're gonna learn how
00:26:16.940
to plug those buckets yeah every single one step yeah i'm and i'll only know that i'm not in rt but
00:26:22.040
obviously i'm there for the talk i'm it's real shit man it's a it's a it's it's a different depth
00:26:29.040
of knowledge and in fact if i if i were to do a podcast on this one topic a whole podcast it would
00:26:35.180
be eight hours long yeah okay so there's a lot that i know and there's a lot that i can share
00:26:40.580
and we do that level of content in rt everybody always us we're like what's the difference between
00:26:45.000
q and a f and rt a fucking whole lot shit turn yeah i love it man uh but guys andy our third and
00:26:52.640
final question question number three rt syndicate.com too by the way shameless yeah yeah i listen people
00:27:00.040
need it no it's real uh guys andy our third and final question question number three andy
00:27:05.440
andy i am completely inspired the fuck out i go through these phases of getting really inspired
00:27:15.300
to do amazing things and conquer the world but then three months later i fall back from the plans
00:27:21.240
and become miserable again i'm constantly seeing these young people run circles around me with their
00:27:26.780
success i'm 34 by the way it's all over social media and i've noticed that i've actually done
00:27:32.980
this countless of times throughout my life and i truly can't figure out why i keep stopping and what
00:27:39.380
it is that they have that i don't can you help me figure this out could be a couple things how do you
00:27:47.900
know they're actually telling you the truth how do you know all these people that are telling you how
00:27:52.500
successful they are actually telling you the truth how you know because they got a lamborghini
00:27:57.360
no okay can you order their product can you go to their headquarters can you go see what the fuck
00:28:03.660
they do can you buy their product in your stores can you like drug dealers look successful that's right
00:28:10.240
all right so first of all remember this every single motherfucker out there right right now is trying
00:28:16.980
to pretend to be as successful as they can because they're trying to sell you some sort of coaching
00:28:22.660
bullshit which they are not qualified to fucking sell you okay because they haven't done it for 25
00:28:28.360
fucking years all right so remember that when you get in these negative mindsets the second thing i would
00:28:34.280
say that i think is a problem for this person is that you are the way you phrase your question you
00:28:40.360
believe that you have to be inspired you don't have to be fucking inspired it's not a requirement you know
00:28:45.240
what's required being disciplined doing shit when you don't feel like doing it that's what discipline
00:28:49.640
is all about okay so i would say the the reality of the situation is you're valuing the wrong things
00:28:55.600
you're valuing that magical feeling of inspiration and that momentum that you quote unquote catch which
00:29:01.940
is actually created by our own actions or the feeling of being motivated you're valuing those things
00:29:07.460
you're not understanding that it's actually discipline that's going to push you through do you think i
00:29:11.600
fucking feel inspired every fucking day i get up bro you're fucking insane there's at least two days
00:29:17.180
a month where i have to go home and go to bed for the whole fucking day because i hate it so much
00:29:21.120
is that true or not true okay so i'm not fucking inspired either and the fact that you think that
00:29:28.740
everybody else is out here successful because they're inspired is an insult to the own discipline
00:29:34.000
that they've manufactured by doing hard shit when they didn't fucking feel like it all right so let's be
00:29:39.760
real about this motherfucker the reason that you ain't where the fuck you want to be is because you
00:29:43.420
don't have the discipline levels that you actually need to have and you need to go fucking build them
00:29:47.080
that's what you need to do i don't want to hear no bullshit about your inspiration or your motivation
00:29:51.560
or i don't feel like fucking doing it bro every motherfucking day i get here i don't feel like fucking
00:29:55.740
doing this i've been doing this for 24 years you fucking think i'm inspired every fucking day
00:30:00.160
you're fucking insane bro you're looking at the wrong way completely the wrong way go do live hard
00:30:05.820
do it for a fucking year and it'll fix this problem for you and you'll be able to endure
00:30:10.520
you'll be able to press through you'll be able to get through these times i just did a post on this
00:30:15.500
this morning when i was out doing my cardio your mood your feelings are fucking irrelevant your life
00:30:22.340
is going to be created by the results of the actions you take not by the mood that you're in when
00:30:28.420
you take them this is reality this is the thing that you must understand if you do not understand
00:30:33.820
this you will constantly go up you will constantly go down you will go up and you'll go down you need
00:30:39.280
discipline and if you listen to the show you should already fucking know it that's why i created live
00:30:44.560
hard go fucking do it 208 do the whole thing write me back in a fucking year and let me know the
00:30:50.560
difference because i can promise you it'll fix your fucking problem it fucking irritates me dude
00:30:56.440
because it's what it's saying is oh you must be motivated all it must be easier for you it must be
00:31:02.320
great it must be so simple bro i kill my fucking self for this shit and every other motherfucker
00:31:07.660
that's actually doing real shit does too that's reality they fucking pay a lot to be where they
00:31:13.940
are and you insult them when you think that it's because they're motivated or they have some sort of
00:31:18.400
inspiration i'm inspirated and i'm inspired a fucking hour a fucking week okay when i see a
00:31:25.700
motherfucker run for fucking a mile and eight and a half minutes with a hundred fucking pounds on them
00:31:30.460
that i know used to be a fat fuck that inspires me for about a fucking hour and then it comes back
00:31:36.740
to reality and i have to do shit i don't want to do because people depend on me and it's fucking
00:31:41.700
important so like fuck dude grow the fuck up that's my message you grow the fuck up it's fucking
00:31:47.800
discipline get fucking tougher fucking tired of hearing it oh it's real shit i mean i'm thinking
00:31:53.880
i was like fuck you need you if you need inspiration right now just log into your bank account yeah
00:31:59.460
check that bro the fact that you aren't where the fuck you want to be should be enough to get you
00:32:03.440
off your fucking ass moving towards oh no fluke and spark bro maybe you just don't have what the
00:32:07.600
fuck it takes you ever think of that yeah that's a conversation nobody wants to have a lot no because
00:32:14.780
entrepreneurship has been painted as this fucking ideal great thing that everybody should be doing
00:32:19.120
it ain't for everybody it costs a lot you're going to trade a whole lot of your life you're going to
00:32:24.220
trade important things in your life to have that fucking life okay you don't get to have this and that
00:32:29.360
motherfucker you don't get the peanut butter and the jelly you can fucking pick one that's reality
00:32:34.820
that's the reality nobody wants to say it you got all these fucking clowns all over the internet
00:32:39.340
talking about balance what have they built it takes major fucking payment from your life to build
00:32:45.820
important great big things that benefit other people it's insulting to think that i'm motivated
00:32:53.100
every day or anyone else is too it's fucking insulting i pay a lot for this and so does every
00:32:59.660
other person that you actually look up to they pay a fucking lot go out and build some discipline bro
00:33:04.420
you're going to have to do a lot of shit you don't want to do to get where you want to go
00:33:07.980
that is how it works there is no hack there's no program there's no 997 a month fucking ai hack
00:33:16.160
that's going to get you there you got to build it within yourself once you build yourself into that kind
00:33:20.840
of weapon now you have an advantage over everybody else because everybody else is just like you
00:33:25.660
they quit when they don't fucking feel like it and if you become the person who cannot quit no matter
00:33:31.560
what no matter how they feel their shit gets done you cannot be stopped you guys do not listen to me on
00:33:38.260
this you cannot be stopped how can you stop someone that gets their shit done regardless of what's going
00:33:44.940
on in their life professionally you cannot stop that person they cannot be stopped if you want to
00:33:51.860
become that kind of person which is required to build big important great things you're going to
00:33:56.940
have to learn to execute when you don't fucking feel like it and there's no other way around it dude
00:34:03.060
it's just the way it is you're fucking torturing yourself by watching people who are lying about their
00:34:09.360
lives and then also at the same time not investing in yourself to have the skill set that you actually
00:34:15.680
need to win it's fucking bro go do live hard write me in a year and tell me how your fucking life
00:34:24.040
change it'll fix all your shit when it comes to this i love it i fucking love it well guys that's why i
00:34:30.580
give the program away for free bro that's why i give it to you for free so you can go build yourself
00:34:36.640
and understand what the fuck you're lacking nobody nobody that's done anything that you think is
00:34:41.940
great has ever been motivated the whole time in fact most of the shit that's been created over the
00:34:47.680
history of mankind all the shit you admire all the buildings all the accomplishments all the
00:34:53.240
championships all the greatness all the great books all the great leaders fucking everything all
00:34:58.780
the great technology that you use every single day was created by people who didn't fucking feel like
00:35:03.580
it they were tired they weren't motivated the world was created by people like that
00:35:10.880
so stop expecting to feel good about what it is you're trying to do and start investing in the
00:35:16.340
skill set of being able to push through when conditions are not ideal that is the only way
00:35:20.780
you will succeed long term brother the only way you might think i'm being harsh on you but i'm telling
00:35:26.240

00:35:30.960
clowns that have built a big podcast but no fucking fruits of the labor to show for it
00:35:35.100
i keep it real here it's not called fucking ideal as fuck or feel good as fuck it's called real as
00:35:42.000
