00:00:00.000 What is up guys, it's Andy Priscilla and this is the show for the realists say goodbye to
00:00:20.540 the lies of fakeness and delusions for modern society and welcome to motherfucking reality
00:00:24.580 guys. Today we have Q and AF, that's where you get to submit the questions and we give
00:00:29.080 you the answers. Now you can submit your questions one of a couple of different ways. The first
00:00:32.360 way is guys, you can email those questions into askandy at andyfriscilla.com or now that
00:00:38.040 we're on YouTube, if you go into YouTube and you get the Q and AF episode and you go down
00:00:41.300 there and you click subscribe and drop a comment, uh, that is a question. We'll pick some of
00:00:45.500 the questions from the comment section on YouTube as well on the Q and AF episodes. Other times
00:00:49.680 you tune in, we have shows within the show. Okay. Lots of new listeners. Every single time
00:00:53.880 we put an episode out, uh, you're going to hear a CTI CTI stands for cruise the internet.
00:00:58.220 That's where we put topics up on the screen. We talk about what we think is true. What
00:01:02.000 we think is not true. We speculate on what it all means. And then we talk about how we
00:01:06.480 as individuals can work together to solve the problems that's going on in the world
00:01:10.340 right now. Other times we have real talk, real talk is just five to 20 minutes of real
00:01:14.340 talk, just shit that I think you need to hear. And then we have full length. Full length
00:01:17.960 is what, uh, you see on most podcasts where we have some people or even one person come in
00:01:22.480 the room. These people have usually done incredible things, uh, been great successes or whatever
00:01:26.960 it is they've been working on. And we talk about how you can become bad-ass just like
00:01:30.840 them. And then other times we have 75 hard versus this is where people who have completed
00:01:34.880 the 75 hard program and made a tremendous transformation in their life, in their mental
00:01:40.080 toughness, in their confidence, in all the mental aspects and physical aspects that come
00:01:44.980 along with it. We bring them on the show. We let them tell their story. Uh, and then,
00:01:49.040 you know, you can go and decide if you want to be like them or not, or you can just continue
00:01:52.200 to be a weak little plebe. It's up to you. Uh, if you want to know that program, it's
00:01:57.260 episode two Oh eight and it's for free. I don't sell it. Um, there is books available
00:02:01.320 on my website, Andy for seller.com, but they're unnecessary. You can get all the information
00:02:05.620 for free on episode two Oh eight. We're explained 75 hard and live hard. So that is the rundown
00:02:10.940 of the show. Now we have this thing we call the fee. The fee is very simple. This means if
00:02:17.560 you like the show, you share the show. It's really, really easy to understand. If we give
00:02:21.800 you value, which I do every single show, I teach you the ins and outs of what it takes
00:02:27.700 to build companies, what it takes to succeed in life. I've been pretty successful. I'm
00:02:31.180 pretty young. I've done a lot of things. People my age just haven't fucking done. And
00:02:34.620 I give them to you for fucking free. Okay. And also what I do is I talk about the shit
00:02:39.120 nobody else wants to talk about. I do that for free too. And you guys message me consistently
00:02:43.500 and you say, man, everybody should hear this. Well, only way everybody's going to hear
00:02:46.600 it is if you tell people to listen. So when we say pay the fee, what that means is if
00:02:50.560 you, if you find it valuable, it makes you laugh. If it gives you a new perspective,
00:02:54.440 it teaches you new skills. It makes you think if you think it's helpful, please share the
00:02:58.560 show. Okay. And that takes a little courage because I talk about controversial things on
00:03:02.620 the show. But the big problem that we have going on in society right now is that you guys
00:03:06.420 are relying on people like me and other people like that with platforms to talk about things
00:03:10.560 and you're too afraid to stand up and speak up on your own. So let me be your voice,
00:03:14.540 share the fucking show and let's fix what's going on in the world. I think that's a fair deal. So
00:03:18.820 whenever we say pay the fee, that's what that means. All right. What's up, man? What's going on?
00:03:23.440 Double yellow there. Huh? Oh yeah. Well, I didn't have time to change for the show. Yeah,
00:03:29.400 there you go. I actually had work to do today. Oh yeah. Yeah. You know, I do these other things
00:03:33.680 besides just podcasting and supplement selling or in the New York times or fucking post or whatever,
00:03:39.300 whichever one of them. I'm going to get you some business cards.
00:03:41.600 Say supplement seller and YouTuber. Bro, it's so fucking funny what these people say. Like the
00:03:49.360 shit, like you guys are so afraid of it. Dude, I got the biggest papers and news organizations in
00:03:55.040 the world coming at me and all I do is make fun of them. It's great. Like all you got to do is make
00:03:59.060 fun of these people. They're fucking idiots. It's great. All right. Yeah. So you, so, so
00:04:02.660 supplement selling is going good. Yeah. Supplement sellers go good. You know,
00:04:06.080 YouTube is going good. I'm just vibing out over here, man. You know, it's all good.
00:04:10.620 Yeah. Herbal tea and meditation. I'm about to give me a van traveling around the country.
00:04:14.420 I would never let you, well, you got a van technically. You do get a van. My shit is
00:04:18.980 pimp though. It's not, I'm not, listen, dude, my fucking existence is so good. Why the fuck would
00:04:23.800 I want to drive around the country in a fucking van? Yeah. All right. Let's be real. The reason
00:04:28.640 y'all want to do this shit is because you ain't got nothing else to fucking go home to that
00:04:31.680 you're proud of. Maybe you should focus on being proud of the shit that you have going home to
00:04:35.620 instead of hiding from it, from going in a fucking van and traveling all over the country for five
00:04:40.120 years. And then in 10 years, when you don't have shit, you're going to look back and be like,
00:04:43.840 fuck dude, I wish I hadn't wasted that time, man. It was beautiful, but fuck. Oh, I got to work at
00:04:48.900 McDonald's. That's how it's going to work out for you, man. So build something that you don't want
00:04:54.060 to leave. That's my recommendation. Yeah. All right. That's the show. Pay the fee. See you fucking
00:04:58.220 later. See you guys. Yeah. All right. What we got today, man? What's going with you? Oh, nothing much.
00:05:03.860 You just had a birthday yesterday. Yeah. It was a double decker. Yeah. Yeah. The birthday and
00:05:07.920 father's day. Yeah. That was cool. Um, what'd you, what'd you get? I actually got some pretty
00:05:13.980 cool shit, man. I got, uh, I've been interested for you. We are here in America. We got to talk
00:05:17.480 about what you got. Yeah. Right, right, right, right. We're a bunch of capitalist materialistic
00:05:20.920 fucks here. Just ask the internet. No, it was cool, man. I've been, uh, interested in for a
00:05:26.160 minute. I guess I've been kind of hinting to Alex, not intentionally by any means. Three ways with

00:05:48.620 a serious, like I desire interest, you know, and, uh, I've never played before. Um, I always
00:05:55.100 see the shit on TVs. It looks interesting. I'm more, uh, more so want to get into it for the
00:06:00.980 golf carts and beer. Yeah. So yeah. Yeah. Well now that cannabis is legal, I mean, that's even
00:06:07.980 better, but dude, it's cool, man. So she got me a whole golf set, man. It's a, uh, a 12 club set.

00:06:33.200 too. Shoes too. I mean, can you wear, you're not supposed to wear those. Like you're supposed to

00:06:42.840 on, you put them on there. Listen, your bag's got a little bag area for shoes. I'll show you.
00:06:48.480 Okay. I played golf for a long time, but then I quit. All right. And then I, when I went back,
00:06:52.400 I was so fucking bad that I couldn't do it. I started dating this girl in a, like in college.
00:06:58.020 Like I went, I played from when I was like, I don't know, seven or eight up until I was about
00:07:03.740 20. And then I quit. And then when I was like 25, I like, there was this girl that I liked and
00:07:10.300 she liked to play golf. So I started playing golf again. I was so fucking bad, bro. I was so bad.
00:07:14.660 Yeah. It's tough, bro. I've done like top golf a few times. I know that doesn't compare.
00:07:19.820 I don't want to hear all you. I mean, it's whatever, but I can hit it. You know, I can,
00:07:23.900 I can see I'm real bad. Yeah. Well, listen, we'll start together. We'll add some, you know,
00:07:29.340 my dad used to be like really good. Yeah. Like Sal shot par, but he was a part of par golf. I know
00:07:34.800 what that means. Yeah. My dad, my dad was like, I've been learning. My dad was like a 10 handicap.
00:07:38.940 Okay. So I know what that means. Yeah. Yeah. So, but like, dude, I was never, I don't have
00:07:43.980 like the finesse and the patience for that kind of a sport. Like I was always like a destroyer.
00:07:49.440 Like I was, I was like a forceful athlete. You know what I'm saying? Like I was good at
00:07:53.840 powerlifting. I was good at fucking football. I was good at hockey. I was good at shit where
00:07:57.820 there was like force to, you know, I was a good hitter in baseball. I hit the fuck out of the
00:08:02.400 baseball. Like the, the, the technical sports, like where it takes like patience and finesse
00:08:07.840 and actual skill. I pretty much suck at it. Yeah. Like if I can't break it to win, like
00:08:14.360 it ain't going to have no chance. Yeah. Yeah. I got you. We'll do it. Yeah. I'll be down,
00:08:17.700 man. Let's let's get it. Ed's got me all fucking wanting to play golf too, bro. Because like
00:08:22.180 I see Ed getting out there and getting fucked up. I'm like, man, that looks like fun. Don't
00:08:25.580 look too bad. Yeah. Throwing shot glasses in the fucking bucket from 30 yards away for a hundred
00:08:30.200 bucks a pop where I'm, I'm in on that shit. I'm in. Yeah. I'm down. Like apparently he's
00:08:35.500 like such a good golfer. He wins all these fucking tournaments with his son, max. It's
00:08:39.380 like, dude, I could golf for a hundred years and not get on that level. Yeah. Yeah. I'm,
00:08:43.620 I'm just, I guess I was just one of those things I wouldn't be able to say, you know,
00:08:46.900 if like, you know, somebody invites like, Hey, you want to go golf? Like, yeah, I can come
00:08:49.740 and I can fucking, yeah. I'm not going to embarrass myself. That's the goal. Yeah. So yeah,
00:08:54.500 let's, let's get started. Bro, if you can shoot under a hundred without cheating, you're,
00:08:57.580 you're a functionally good golfer. Okay. Okay. All right. Yeah. I'm, I'm down. I'm down,
00:09:02.420 man. So yeah. So that, that's what I did. It was a good weekend, man. What about you? Had
00:09:05.120 a good weekend? Yeah. I, Oh dude, you know, I, I, I, I didn't do shit. It was great. Well,
00:09:16.560 let's make some of these people better. Yeah. Uh, Andy question number one, uh, Andy with all
00:09:23.540 the technological advancements of AI you've said before, it needs to be regulated. How exactly
00:09:31.280 would that work? I am getting concerned that it may come from my job as my company is starting to
00:09:37.020 fully automate my field. First, it was robots on the assembly line. Now with AI call customer service
00:09:43.580 lines, I am low key freaking out. Is this something that is even possible to regulate? And if so,
00:09:51.420 how do you do it? And I also would like to know your input. Are there any potential benefits of AI
00:09:57.100 in your opinion? Oh man. Well, it's a deep question. It is. And the problem here. Okay.
00:10:06.500 Well, a lot of us try to tell you, all right. And a lot of you kept cheering for it. You've been
00:10:10.860 calling for it and cheering for it and rooting for technology for the sake of technology for a long,
00:10:16.840 long time. Okay. It's been going on since the internet first came around in the late nineties,
00:10:20.960 where it started to catch on. And everybody wants to pursue technology, but no one ever stops and
00:10:26.840 asks, should we pursue this technology? And because no one stopped and asked about the internet in
00:10:33.740 terms of censorship, like how do we keep these companies from interfering in the conversation
00:10:40.320 of the facts and the truth? And we failed at that because we've allowed these companies to do
00:10:46.000 whatever they want. Section 230 does not regulate the companies strong enough. They do not have any
00:10:52.020 accountability. They're able, as we've seen for the last three years, to censor anything that we say.
00:10:56.980 And to the point now where it's almost like they've given up because they realized that
00:11:00.820 it's going to be impossible to do, but they're going to continue to try. And the thing about AI is that,
00:11:07.780 you know, while I understand the argument that a lot of people try to make, right? Like I understand
00:11:15.020 the argument of it's a tool. It's not, it's something to look into incorporating into what
00:11:22.220 you do, not to replace what you do. But, and that's, that's okay. That's a, that's a fair argument,
00:11:27.520 right? The internet's a tool. Social media is a tool. AI is a tool. And I think that's a fair argument.
00:11:32.640 However, we have to look at the history of these companies and their overstepping of boundaries
00:11:38.740 with the intended use of these tools. Okay. The internet and social media was created to bring
00:11:47.540 people together. Well, do you think that the internet and social media brings people together
00:11:51.580 or do you think it actually divides people now? I think it's way more division than it is bringing
00:11:56.400 people together. It's been, now it's been used for propaganda for long, long time. So the original
00:12:02.280 use of how the privacy invasion, yes. Okay, bro. I mean, did you not see the story of this guy who
00:12:08.260 got his house shut down by Amazon? Yeah, I saw that. Okay. So there was a guy who has a smart house,
00:12:14.580 you know, has all the Amazon tech, which by the way, I have none of it. And this is just proof to
00:12:19.780 what I've been telling you that they listen to you all the time. And so the driver, nobody talked
00:12:25.120 about that part. What? I said, nobody's even talking about that part. So they listen and audit you all
00:12:29.580 the time. No matter what you say, if you have Alexa in your home, it is on all the time. If you
00:12:33.880 have a microphone in your home, that's on a TV or that's on your phone, those things are always on.
00:12:40.380 That's what people fail to realize. And apparently some dude made a racist comment, quote unquote,
00:12:46.580 according to the driver of Amazon. And it's been proven that he didn't, by the way,
00:12:50.020 he went even home and he shut down. It was a total fucking lie on the part of the driver,
00:12:54.600 which that's a whole nother fucking topic. We live in the most racist country in the world
00:13:00.520 where half the fucking racism is fucking made up. Right. Okay. Interesting. You know, and,
00:13:06.200 and who's writing the racial slurs and all the insides of the bathrooms and the schools. Oh,
00:13:10.320 it always comes back to, Oh, it's, it's actually the people that they're writing the slurs about
00:13:14.840 doing it. Okay. So like, what the fuck? First of all, that's a whole nother topic. But the reality
00:13:21.200 of it is, is we're putting ourselves in a super vulnerable position by pursuing technology for
00:13:26.000 the sake of technology. And so while I can respect and understand the argument that AI can be seen
00:13:31.180 as a tool, you're not thinking far enough down the road. And you're also not taking into consideration
00:13:35.640 the precedent that these people who run these tech companies and have access and influence over
00:13:41.180 these tech companies, meaning the three letter agencies and their own government, you're not taking
00:13:45.260 into effect their, into account their track record of overstepping and what they will use it for.
00:13:50.420 And so now we have these things with AI avatars. And I actually just had this super interesting
00:13:55.240 business opportunity presented to me, um, by somebody that I, I totally respect. Who's a true
00:14:02.660 fucking legend in the personal development field. Um, and he wants to library his content in an AI
00:14:10.300 format. And he wants me to be in the, in the video with him. Cause he's, he's an older guy. He's at 77
00:14:15.900 years old. Okay. And I'm a younger guy and he wants us to go through the content and it to live
00:14:20.280 on AI, meaning my avatar and his avatar. And you know, the idea is really cool. Like it's a cool
00:14:27.120 idea. However, I, I don't feel right about it because I feel like it morally violates my personal
00:14:34.140 feelings on AI. And I think that AI, you should be scared of AI and those people that are scared
00:14:40.940 for their jobs. You should be. And I tried to tell you this, and I've been trying to tell you this for a
00:14:45.700 long, long time that technology has to be regulated and we have to come up with a way to create a
00:14:51.880 situation where, um, you can't just replace human beings. And so like how to regulate it, how, how
00:14:58.900 would you do it? Um, that could come in many different forms that could come in, you know,
00:15:04.100 straight up laws that they can do this and not that I think reasonable restrictions on technology
00:15:09.740 are needed to create the situation where humans are always going to be valuable. All right.
00:15:17.540 Because if you look at the whole agenda of everything that's going on and you have these
00:15:23.080 guys at the world economic forum talking legitimately about depopulating, you have Bill Gates talking about
00:15:28.680 depopulating, you have Anthony Fauci talking about depopulating, you have half the fucking government
00:15:34.220 leaders in the world talking about depopulating in the name of environmental, uh, governance. All
00:15:39.840 right. Which in reality is not even true. We have a population collapse problem, not a overpopulation
00:15:45.620 problem. If you think about what they're trying to do to replace human beings with technology,
00:15:52.920 and then you think, why are they trying to depopulate? Well, it should make logical sense to
00:15:57.420 you that the reason they're trying to depopulate is because they don't need human beings anymore.
00:16:00.740 They don't need 8 billion people. They need like a billion. Okay. So these fucking God complex
00:16:08.060 weirdos have decided that they're going to go ahead and try to reduce everything down to a billion and
00:16:13.680 replace everything with technology. And that's the bigger play of what's going on. So you should be
00:16:18.280 worried. Now, how do you regulate it? You have to convince people, uh, in our country to make laws
00:16:25.100 that restrict the use of these technologies. However, uh, I don't know if that's going to
00:16:30.920 happen because I think that we've gotten so in line with this idea of pursuing technology, pursuing
00:16:35.980 technology. Oh, this is great. Look how cool this is. Look how convenient this is. Look how this works.
00:16:41.420 Look how this makes my life easier that now fucking half the world's a fat piece of shit sitting at
00:16:46.420 home, not having a purpose at all because everything's available right at their fingertip,
00:16:50.040 their entertainment, their food, their companionship through porn. Okay. We go through the list
00:16:55.280 like, dude, it's making people legit like vegetables and legitimate permanent mega consumers of the,
00:17:03.900 I would say, you know, the fascist complex that we have going on. Okay. The true fascist complex,
00:17:12.000 which is the coordination of government with corporate America to create mega consumers out of
00:17:19.860 the population, which means like, you know, why do they encourage you to be fat? Well,
00:17:23.780 they encourage you to be fat because they know that if you consume their foods, they make money
00:17:28.260 on their foods. And if you get fat on their foods, uh, you need their medicine too. So then you make
00:17:33.180 money on the medicine. And, and then once you, you know, start in that cycle, you consume more of
00:17:39.100 their information. You're on social media more, you're consuming more of their data. So all of these
00:17:43.680 things are synergistic and they're working to create a mega consumer. And this is why I say all the
00:17:48.320 time that personal excellence is the ultimate rebellion because through personal excellence,
00:17:53.120 being fit, being intelligent, being wealthy, um, being spiritually aware of what's going on,
00:17:59.780 culturally aware it's going on, living at a high standard, helping people bring your neighbors
00:18:04.620 along, uh, improving society. The reason they're so against that is because it reduces their ability
00:18:11.600 to profit off of that particular human being. So they're trying to crush this in culture and
00:18:17.480 they're trying to use technology to, uh, accelerate that process. And the reason they push for AI is
00:18:24.100 the same reason they put 400 pound fitness models on a magazine and say health. Okay. Because they
00:18:29.000 understand that ultimately it ends up creating a less functional, less healthy, poor, dumber mega
00:18:38.020 consumer that they have an easier time controlling. And if those people die, it helps them anyway,
00:18:44.100 because they got less people to control. So what they're building is a total jail of technology
00:18:49.580 around the human race. It's not just here in America and they've got people championing it to
00:18:56.220 come to fruition sooner. Like all you tech nerds that are out there fucking like, bro, stop and think
00:19:01.920 about what the fuck you're actually doing. There is a whole entire real world out here with air and birds
00:19:07.880 and fucking water and rivers and people. And you're, you're championing these people removing
00:19:14.860 that for the rest of humanity forever. So if I were president, how would I regulate it? I'd probably
00:19:20.380 make the shit totally illegal. That's what I would do. Um, or if you wanted to use it, you, you pay the
00:19:31.260 same, you pay the same taxes we pay now. If you don't use it and you employ regular people, you get a
00:19:36.600 a hundred percent tax credit. You don't pay any tax. So there's this like top down regulation,
00:19:41.780 right? What's the bottom up? What's the grassroots? The grassroots up is, is going to be people having
00:19:46.960 enough discipline to understand that it's not a good thing and not to utilize it and to reject it.
00:19:52.600 You know, the metaverse was rejected, you know, but here's the problem. We have all these young kids
00:19:57.840 who are hungry to me. I told you this before, by the way, how'd I tell you they're going to usher this
00:20:01.600 in by greed, by greed. They are going to fucking cater it to, to people in business, making
00:20:06.500 opportunity, money, making opportunities. And what do we have? We have all these young kids
00:20:11.060 who haven't done shit, who don't know shit, who learned how to put prompts in and don't have any
00:20:15.440 real substance. Okay. And this is very dangerous too, because like, let's just say, I don't know,
00:20:21.900 they set off a nuclear weapon in the sky and fucking EMP every single electronic device in the world.
00:20:27.500 And you've relied on AI the entire time to build your whole business. Now you're fucking legit
00:20:32.300 dead. You have no skills, nothing to fall back on. You can't provide any value as a human being.
00:20:38.060 And the reality that this technology, um, is going to create a scenario where we have an entire
00:20:44.100 generation of people or more entire population of people potentially be literally useless in the
00:20:50.760 real world is a real thing. So, um, the way you fight it, dude, is by keeping yourself in good.
00:20:57.400 It sounds stupid, but it's the truth. You keep yourself in high physical condition. You keep
00:21:02.120 yourself in high mental condition. You work to make as much money as you can. You work yourself off the
00:21:06.640 system and you try to do it without using the technology that they offer and becoming a pawn in
00:21:10.900 their game. So, but it needs to be related. It needs to be regulated. Government needs to regulate it.
00:21:15.680 They should have learned a lesson with social media. Now social media is so big and so
00:21:19.660 powerful and so influential and so much money pours into the democratic, uh, uh, political
00:21:25.800 campaigns that none of the democratic party at all will fucking say anything about what I'm saying
00:21:30.680 right now. And a lot of Republicans won't either because they make so much political contribution
00:21:34.880 that they, those people rely on that now there's, there's like this machine feeding the government
00:21:40.400 that the government's afraid to cut off because these motherfuckers are personally walking out worth,
00:21:44.880 you know, tens or hundreds of millions of dollars because of the contributions of some of these
00:21:49.260 companies make to them. So it's a big fucking mess. Um, the only way it's going to get solved is by
00:21:54.720 people rejecting it and, uh, you know, or the government making some common sense regulations
00:21:59.820 that, that should be made across social media and across the internet. Like social media should not
00:22:05.380 be able to censor at all. They also shouldn't be able to turn your traffic up and down at all.
00:22:11.060 They shouldn't be able to manipulate, uh, your traffic because this is how they do it. They
00:22:17.220 manipulate the people who are on their agenda. They give them a white list, which allows them to
00:22:23.680 access their whole audience. And then people like me or people who have differing opinions or people
00:22:28.200 who have even questionable opinions of any sort that are outside the norm, they completely fucking
00:22:32.800 block off their ability to have the audience. And that should be illegal. It's communism.
00:22:37.140 It is communism. Yeah. So, you know, but the government's not doing anything about it because
00:22:43.240 let's be real. The government's a bunch of fucking pussies. That's it. Yeah. I was going to say some
00:22:47.900 other shit, but I stopped it there. Yeah. That's real, man. Uh, Andy, I just got promoted into a small
00:22:55.820 leadership role. I have a great relationship with my team members already. And I was trusted for this
00:23:01.280 position because of my work ethic and production. However, I understand that this is
00:23:07.100 my first real leadership position and I know I'm not perfect or even close to it. So my question
00:23:12.820 is, what are three things I can do right now today to become a better leader for my peers?
00:23:19.300 Well, look, man, leadership is often talked about and most of the time it's overcomplicated because
00:23:25.100 it's very, very simple. Vince Lombardi said it the best. No one's ever going to say it better.
00:23:30.780 He said exactly what it is. He said, leading by example, isn't the best way to win. It's the only
00:23:36.360 way to win. Okay. And here's the thing. If you truly lead by example, you won't have to learn
00:23:42.640 anything else about leading. Literally. Everybody will just follow you. They will do what you do.
00:23:47.280 They will emulate you. They will live at that standard and it will be natural. So what are
00:23:51.700 three things that you can do to make the people that you are leading become the kind of people that
00:23:59.020 you want them to become? Well, those three things are going to depend on where you are as a person.
00:24:04.040 And I would say if I'm starting with a clay figure and I'm molding them into the perfect
00:24:08.800 leader, the first one is physical presence. You have to become, and this is the truth. People think
00:24:13.880 this is bullshit. There is science behind this. Okay. If you are physically in shape, people take you
00:24:20.960 more seriously. That's rule number one. So I would get your fat ass in fucking shape. First things
00:24:27.140 first. I will get yourself a mental shape while you're at it too. By the way, I know this program
00:24:31.520 it's called fucking live hard. All right. It's episode 208. I talk about it all the time. This
00:24:35.580 is how I live. If you do 75 hard and you do it perfectly without compromise, by the time you're
00:24:40.800 done with that 75 days, you will be an exponentially better leader in all areas because you'll be more
00:24:46.160 confident. You'll be more patient. You'll be in physical better shape. You'll be more intelligent.
00:24:51.120 You have learned all of these things about discipline, which will allow you to lead by example at a
00:24:54.940 higher level. And so getting yourself to a point where you are mentally disciplined,
00:24:59.100 you are physically fit and you are willing to do the job that the other people need to do.
00:25:04.000 And you are willing to do it at a high level every single day, day in and day out, day in and day out,
00:25:08.200 no matter what, that is an example that people will follow. And that makes your job as a leader
00:25:13.640 much easier. The problem with leadership is that most people don't live any of the example and then
00:25:19.040 expect their team to live the complete example. And every single person just reversed the roles.
00:25:24.700 How many shitty leaders have you had that have said, do this, do this, do this? And they do none
00:25:29.740 of it. And the minute they walk out, everybody's like, yeah, fuck that dude. How many you had?
00:25:35.080 We've all had them. So we all know what it's like to be on the other side of that audience.
00:25:39.560 So all you have to do is be the kind of leader that you would have respected when you were sitting
00:25:43.420 on the other side of the audience. And if you become that, the people will follow you. If you don't
00:25:47.920 become that, there's no way to lead them. I see a lot of people out there trying to lead with this
00:25:52.380 authority because of a title or because of a position they have. Bro, people don't give a
00:25:59.220 fuck if you're the CEO. They don't give a fuck if you're the president. They don't care about your
00:26:03.360 title. They don't care about what you own. They don't care about how big your company is. Here's
00:26:07.300 what they care about. Is this motherfucker doing what he's telling me to do? And can he do it at a
00:26:12.340 high level? And until you show them that you are not only willing to do that, but also capable of
00:26:17.300 doing that, you're not going to get much motion out of your team. So that's, you know, I would say
00:26:24.120 the main thing, you know, you say, oh, give me three things. If you do that, you don't need three
00:26:29.300 things. You only need fucking one thing. All right. And then you can do a lot of things on top of that
00:26:33.860 to make it a little better. But those things are like the sprinkles on the fucking cupcake, bro.
00:26:37.760 You know what I'm saying? Like a lot of you guys are trying to like create the sprinkles. You think
00:26:41.740 that's like the main course. The main course is what I just gave you. Once you build that foundation,
00:26:46.240 now you're in a situation where leadership becomes that much easier. You don't have to
00:26:50.200 yell and scream. You don't have to threaten people. You don't have to like fucking be a
00:26:54.140 tyrant. You could just simply fucking do the shit and you'll find. And here's the best part. When
00:26:59.320 you actually live this shit, you'll find out who your players are because they will naturally just
00:27:04.060 follow you without you having to say shit. And those are the people that now you can, you know,
00:27:08.180 you can count on, you know, are your strong leaders and you can start to move forward with that.
00:27:12.640 And the people who don't, they kind of cut themselves out automatically.
00:27:16.240 You know, just through their inaction or their complacency of being exactly where they are.
00:27:20.280 So, you know, I mean, if you want three things, you know, I could fucking throw in a hundred other
00:27:26.540 things behind those things, but that isn't going to fix the problem. The problem is going to be this
00:27:30.700 main thing that I'm talking about. You have to live it. You have to be it. It has to be undeniable.
00:27:35.660 And if you do those things and you become that person, the people behind you will respect it and they
00:27:39.780 move forward with you. You know, let me give you just two things to satisfy the question on top of
00:27:46.520 it. Another thing with leadership where a lot of leaders fail is they can't paint and articulate
00:27:50.720 the vision of where we're trying to go clear. And they don't do it in a way where the people that
00:27:56.180 are leading actually believe it and believe that their dreams are also possible within this mission
00:28:02.400 that we're on. That's a huge deal. Okay. So when you're a leader, you have to be great at painting
00:28:07.500 the vision and tying the why of the mission back to what it means for the individual. And you have
00:28:13.100 to communicate that in your language all the time. This would be things like, you know, Hey, look
00:28:17.400 guys, we're trying to do this and this and this, we're going to build this company that does this
00:28:21.600 and this and this, what it's going to mean for you is we're going to have a tremendous impact.
00:28:24.880 We're going to have a lot of fun, but it's also going to mean you don't have to worry about
00:28:27.640 college for your kids. You get to live in any house you fucking want. You could drive
00:28:30.840 whatever the fuck you want. If we do this, this vision is so big that all of your dreams are going to
00:28:35.060 come true in it automatically. And then the third thing is, guess what? You got to go actually do
00:28:40.260 it. Okay. Because if you preach this vision and you preach these things and you don't take the
00:28:45.240 action and you go to the lake on Thursday and come back on Monday morning and you're all fucked up half
00:28:49.900 the time and you're fat and out of shape, bro, nobody believes the vision. So they're not going
00:28:54.100 to fucking buy in. Okay. And there's a thousand other things, bro. This could be a, this could be
00:28:58.900 fucking 50 hour library of content, but really it comes down to these basic things. But the main thing is
00:29:04.920 you got to live it. You got to be, it's got to be undeniable. And if you do those three things
00:29:08.660 on, as the foundation of leadership, everything else is, is sprinkles on the cupcake, bro.
00:29:13.860 Everybody's going to eat. Everybody's going to like the cupcake and everybody's going to be happy.
00:29:17.880 I love that, man. Uh, guys, Andy, our third and final question and question number three,
00:29:23.980 uh, Andy, I run a construction company, uh, building extensions and installing new windows and doors
00:29:32.140 based on this. Most of my customers are a one-time purchase as once their windows are installed,
00:29:39.500 they don't need to replace them again, uh, in their lifetime or however long they are at the
00:29:43.380 property. Uh, now you mentioned a lot about customers coming back again and again to buy from
00:29:49.080 you. Meaning, uh, you have to spend less time trying to win new customers, but what advice, uh,
00:29:54.340 would you give for a company like mine that are not seeing return customers every week?
00:29:58.540 Well, first of all, you got to understand every business that I'm involved in is consumable
00:30:02.940 items. Okay. So there's a buying cycle to that. That means it's either a 30 or 60 or 90 day buying
00:30:08.740 cycle. That's from the perspective of where I teach from. Okay. Consumable goods. Um, your focus
00:30:15.700 should be on being the main fucking window guy and door guy that there is on the planet. When anyone says
00:30:24.620 who should do my windows, they should automatically say Bob, Bob, the window motherfucker, right? Like
00:30:31.540 that's what the fuck you want to be. You want to be Bob, the window motherfucker. All right. And you
00:30:35.620 want every single person that ever thinks about windows and doors to say my experience with Bob,
00:30:41.440 the window motherfucker was the best fucking experience I've ever had my entire life.
00:30:45.080 And if you can at least offer that kind of experience to your one-time customer,
00:30:50.000 it's just as good as having them as a repeat customer, because if you can create the amazing
00:30:55.020 experience, they do the marketing for you because they have all these friends that at some point
00:31:00.360 are going to need a window or going to need a door or going to need a repair. And you, if you make
00:31:05.120 your experience in delivering those items that much more exceptional than anybody else, and this
00:31:11.380 would be easy to do because these companies do not try. Yeah. Okay. To where people would at the
00:31:16.940 very least never go anywhere else. Okay. You're going to have, uh, a library of long-term referrals
00:31:26.380 that come from every single customer that you do. Okay. So you have to think of it like this.
00:31:31.760 Everybody's got a family Rolodex. Everybody has a friend Rolodex. You don't know what a Rolodex is.
00:31:35.960 Go fucking Google it. Okay. I've learned. Yeah, I know. So it's a, it's a book of contacts. Yeah. Okay.
00:31:42.700 It's your, it's your entire encyclopedia of anybody that, you know, nowadays it would be
00:31:48.140 like your social media, right? So if you can do such a great job to where someone tells a story
00:31:54.560 about your door or window installation or the quality or the experience that they posted on
00:31:58.800 social and you get enough of these, you're, you're going to automatically create this automatic
00:32:04.140 reputation of, of Bob, the window motherfucker, right? Like it's going to happen and you're going to be
00:32:08.640 that. So, um, instead of worrying about the return of now, there's another way to look at this too,
00:32:16.320 but I'm going to cover this in a second. Instead of worrying about them buying more windows,
00:32:20.700 worry about who they're telling to buy the windows from you. Okay. And that will accomplish the same
00:32:26.040 goal that we're trying to accomplish with a consumable good. Now, here's another thing you
00:32:29.780 can think about. If I were you, this is what I would think. I would think about ancillary products
00:32:35.580 that you can offer as upsells to these people that get doors and windows that are consumable.
00:32:40.620 Maybe the products that they clean their windows with, maybe it's a cleaning service. Maybe it's
00:32:45.880 Christmas light decorations or decorations for your home or some sort of ancillary business where it
00:32:52.360 can improve cashflow and customer contact point, because the more point and the more contact points
00:32:59.040 you have with your customer over the course of time, the more loyal they become. So if you sell them
00:33:03.100 doors in December and they don't hear from you for two years, they kind of forget about you.
00:33:07.820 But if you can come up with a service for their home that they need every spring or every fall,
00:33:12.680 or they need one every four seasons along with this, and you own this company too. Now you start
00:33:18.040 to create a synergistic machine of referrals because not only are you Bob the window motherfucker,
00:33:23.360 now you're Bob the Christmas light motherfucker too. Okay. So like you're, but there's multiple
00:33:28.240 things that you can do here to increase customer touches that increase revenue, but more importantly,
00:33:33.700 increase the ability and the frequency of customers to tell your brand story, which is ultimately what's
00:33:39.300 going to grow your company. Fuck man. Yeah. Been doing this for a minute. Yeah. Fuck yeah, man. That's
00:33:44.460 fucking great. Yeah. Well guys, Andy, that was, that's what I would do. If you're asking me what the fuck
00:33:49.900 I would do, I would do the second part of that. I would do such a great job to where there's no doubt
00:33:56.020 that when I walk away, they say, dude, you can't go anywhere else. Yeah. Andy's that guy. Yes. Yeah.
00:34:02.160 And then I would follow it up by working to create little services for the home
00:34:08.220 over the course of time that allow that story to be refreshed in their mind. Okay. Because now
00:34:16.180 if I come back in, let's say, uh, around Halloween and I do your Halloween decorations,
00:34:22.280 I'm just making this shit up. Okay. Like there's other things. It could be window cleaning.
00:34:25.860 It could be, it could be all of these things. My point is, is get you, I'm trying to get
00:34:31.420 you to think outside of the windows and the doors and to think how you continuously service
00:34:35.900 these customers in a way that not only makes you money, but also gets them to spread the
00:34:39.800 word of mouth for you, because that's the economy that we work in. We work in a word of mouth,
00:34:44.280 um, authentic recommendation, loyalty economy. And we're not trying to get the one sale anymore.
00:34:52.120 Like you guys out there who run these little widget campaigns and your e-comm and you're
00:34:56.600 making a couple grand or fucking 20 grand or a hundred grand a month right now. And you think
00:35:00.600 you're rich, you don't know what the fuck rich is because you're in bed. You're using a single tool
00:35:05.280 to create cashflow instead of using the tool to create the brand. And the brand is where the money's
00:35:10.540 made. So we have to widen our thinking. Okay. First things first, start with the experience,
00:35:17.420 make it amazing, make it undeniable, make it so they will never call another person for these
00:35:21.600 things ever again. And they will actively refer you because they love you so much to every single
00:35:26.880 one of their friends. You start there and then you work in, how can I, how can I keep in contact?
00:35:32.040 What can I do? How can I reinvest my profits from windows and doors into this thing that now services
00:35:38.160 them three, four times a year where I get to build a real relationship. And then they push the business
00:35:43.640 out through the word of mouth and the technology that we have today, man. So it's just a different
00:35:48.700 way of thinking. Oh, for sure. For sure. I feel like a lot of people get always, I mean,
00:35:52.740 I feel like it'd be easy to get caught up in that, right? Like expand your thinking, right? These sounds
00:35:56.960 like, you know, not super complex things to do, but like, where is the hangover? Remember bro,
00:36:02.800 I've been doing this for 24 years. Yeah. This is not like, I'm just on day one. Right. You know what I'm
00:36:07.880 saying? Like I'm, I'm not just a supplement seller and a fucking YouTuber. Okay. I'm also
00:36:13.500 pretty well respected in the personal development community. Yeah. I love it, man. Pretty much at
00:36:18.040 the fucking top. I love it. So I love it. Well guys, Andy, that's three. Yeah, guys, that's the
00:36:23.740 show. Don't forget to subscribe. I appreciate you guys. I love you guys. Let us know what you think
00:36:27.100 in the comments and we'll talk to you next time.
