00:02:21.020
and this real talk is important because we're going to talk about a concept actually three concepts
00:02:26.760
that kill your success and productivity okay uh here's what you need to understand i'm just going
00:02:32.780
to get right into it when it comes to your success and your productivity the reason you aren't
00:02:38.260
getting shit done is not because you lack the time it's not because you lack the talent it's not
00:02:43.740
because you lack the knowledge or the experience the reality is guys it's always a mindset issue
00:02:50.680
you are believing the lies that keep you from being productive okay and there's a lot of lies
00:02:57.000
but let me tell you the big three okay lie number one i don't have the resources to get this done what
00:03:04.680
the fuck do you mean nobody has the resources to get anything great done this is the mindset of the
00:03:10.200
vast majority of people the vast majority of people look around and they look at what they don't have
00:03:16.020
and they say well that guy over there had this and this and this going for him and that's why he's where
00:03:20.840
he is and why i'm not there okay and this is also why they never accomplish anything now there's all
00:03:26.600
kinds of people out there that play business okay and what i mean by playing business is it's these
00:03:31.340
people that think they have to have all these things in order to get their business going they
00:03:35.620
got to have the shiny new latest macbook pro 5000 or or this special heavyweight stationary paper or a
00:03:44.040
perfect office with their name on the door okay these people think that those are the things that
00:03:50.060
actually make them successful they are the type of people who when they go on a trip and they go down
00:03:55.340
to the exercise room and they look at the shitty exercise room that the hotel has they think man you know
00:04:01.100
what i can't really get a workout in so uh they do nothing okay and that is the opposite mentality of
00:04:07.880
what successful people have successful people have the mentality of this i'm going to make the most of
00:04:15.060
what i have because i'm going to get where it is i'm going no matter what happens they have the
00:04:21.560
mentality they're going to find a way to do more with less back when chris and i first started our first
00:04:27.240
business we spent all of our money building out the building all right we maxed out our credit cards
00:04:32.820
buying product uh we didn't have any money for a marketing plan but we had what i like to call what
00:04:38.700
you've heard me refer to many times as a zero options mentality that meant that there was nothing else
00:04:44.620
that we were going to do other than that and we were going to become successful no matter what
00:04:50.020
we were either going to make the supplement business work or we were going to fucking die trying
00:04:55.380
okay zero options there was no other option so for this reason it forced us to make the most of what
00:05:02.540
we had we removed everything else from the table other than success and we said okay we don't have
00:05:07.660
much but we're going to make sure that it works for us and since we didn't have any money for marketing
00:05:12.600
we figured out a way to build our business and get our customers to come back so we became masters of
00:05:17.960
this useful skill called customer experience and customer service we provided so much value to our
00:05:25.160
customers who came into the store that they came back and guess what they brought people with them
00:05:31.640
and guess what happened our business started growing and now we have a company that's worth
00:05:36.640
multiple billions of dollars and we've done that in 24 years and we did it by starting with virtually
00:05:43.660
nothing this happened because we didn't accept the lie we don't have the resources for this or we
00:05:49.840
don't have this or that or this and they had all these advantages motherfucker everybody had every
00:05:54.500
advantage over us and they have it over you too but that's no reason for you to not go anyway okay you
00:06:02.240
have to reject the lie that lack of resources what's holding you back because it will actually hold you
00:06:08.260
back if you tell yourself that story so you've got to make the most of what you have you have to be
00:06:13.780
determined to get more for less okay that's how most entrepreneurs think that are successful all the
00:06:19.900
ones that you admire all the ones you look up to all the people you want to be like this is how they
00:06:25.180
think this is how they operate and here's the reality guys when you adopt this mindset you'll find a way
00:06:32.380
too because there is no other option all right so that's lie number one remove the idea that it's the
00:06:42.480
lack of resources holding you back because it isn't all right lie number two i'm too tired to handle this
00:06:51.460
right now well guess what motherfucker every single great thing that you have ever used every single
00:06:58.720
product you've ever used every single building you've ever driven by every single championship
00:07:04.100
you've ever witnessed every single great human achievement every single product that you use on
00:07:11.780
a daily basis was created by people who were tired okay do you know what happens the minute you were born
00:07:19.920
you start to fucking die and as you grow up time and gravity and the elements put a stress on your system
00:07:26.880
and as the years pass by you begin the process of slowing down and eventually dying and every day that you
00:07:34.860
get up there are forces working to wear you out this is just called life this is why we have to eat
00:07:41.720
this is why we have to exercise this is why we have to drink water okay this is why we have to build
00:07:48.180
ourselves into a formidable weapon we have to constantly battle against the breakdown of our own strength
00:07:55.220
our own energy and our own mental capacity and you know what i'm trying to say by telling you this
00:08:01.120
i'm trying to tell you that being tired is part of the fucking game okay so it's not a valid excuse
00:08:08.300
it's normal it's a constant it's part of being human and if you want to be a high achiever guess what
00:08:14.480
you're going to have to acclimate yourself to being fucking tired way more than you're not tired
00:08:19.580
successful people understand this guys successful people do not use tired as an excuse in fact they
00:08:27.020
understand that if they push through the tired everybody else stops when they're tired and so by
00:08:33.200
pushing through the tired you actually create a gap between you and everybody else that you're
00:08:38.100
competing with and here's another thing that happens when you're tired because no one else ever pushes
00:08:43.120
through when they're tired and because you're someone that always pushes through when you're tired
00:08:46.840
you learn this unique skill set that allows you to operate at a high level when you're tired
00:08:52.800
okay and that's a huge competitive advantage over everybody else let me give you an example on this
00:08:58.440
okay suppose it's 8 p.m at night and you've worked all day long like a dog all right but you know that
00:09:05.360
you're going to have to work through the night too to finish your critical task you're very tired
00:09:09.580
you're exhausted but you know something you know that at 9 a.m the next morning you're going to get
00:09:16.320
paid a million dollars for the work that you do right now are you still tired yeah real tired
00:09:22.320
do you still make it through the night i bet you fucking do okay there's actually some sort of weird
00:09:28.740
enjoyment that you get from being so dead tired and then pushing through because you know that every
00:09:34.840
single person you're competing with every single person that is pushing on your coattails every single
00:09:40.740
person who's ahead of the game further than you you know that they're quitting when they get tired
00:09:47.200
and so you get satisfaction it helps build confidence it helps build momentum it helps build you into
00:09:52.440
someone that believes in yourself and this is an important point of pushing through when you're tired
00:09:58.040
now am i sitting here saying oh well you need to run yourself into the dirt that's not what i'm saying
00:10:03.480
that's what the that's what the politically correct socially correct people will say oh andy's saying
00:10:09.460
run yourself into the dirt till you're dead that's not what the fuck i'm saying i'm saying don't be a
00:10:14.240
weak little bitch i'm saying that everything great that you've ever looked at in your entire life was
00:10:18.420
built by tired people and if you want to be one of the great people that builds amazing things you're
00:10:22.500
gonna have to do so tired as well that is the way it works are you tired are you tired right now i bet
00:10:28.540
you are a little tired that's normal but guess what you can do you could still act you could still
00:10:34.180
execute you could still work and you could still be successful in fact working when you're tired is
00:10:39.740
what is going to make you successful so fuck off with this bullshit about how tired you are nobody cares
00:10:46.320
and nothing great was ever achieved without of it it's a part of the recipe being tired is a part of
00:10:54.020
the success recipe so get used to it okay now lie number three and this is the biggest one that we
00:11:00.580
all tell i'm guilty of this as well this can wait till tomorrow you guys know that i talk openly about
00:11:08.260
this thing called the bitch voice a lot all right the bitch voice is that voice inside your head that
00:11:13.420
is always negative that always tells you why you can't do something or why you shouldn't do something
00:11:18.380
and the reason the bitch voice is so effective on all of us is because it is the exact voice that
00:11:25.580
knows exactly what to say to get us to pause or to get us to wait or to get us to put off for tomorrow
00:11:32.180
what needs to be done right now this can wait till tomorrow is one of the most effective lies the
00:11:38.480
bitch voice uses why is this so effective because it's not telling you to give up it's not saying hey bail
00:11:44.440
out on your dreams it's just telling you to pause until tomorrow okay it's not telling you to stop
00:11:51.360
working on your goals if it did that you'd be alert to the bitch voice so it comes in real creepy like
00:11:56.520
and it tells you hey you did enough today this can be done tomorrow and that sounds good when you're
00:12:03.500
tired that sounds good when you're worn out right man i have done a lot today i know i didn't finish
00:12:09.660
exactly what i'm supposed to finish but this can't actually wait tomorrow okay and this is why
00:12:15.940
it's so effective if it was more obvious if the bitch voice was more aggressive you'd notice it
00:12:22.560
right away and you say hey the bitch voice is talking to me hey fuck off bitch voice that's what
00:12:27.020
you'd say okay you might say oh i better take action right now because i'm getting talked out of
00:12:32.500
it by my own weakness which is exactly what's happening they're just doing it real smooth okay and then
00:12:37.860
you would be motivated to go back to work but that's not the point of the bitch voice the bitch
00:12:41.420
voice isn't stupid the bitch voice is not an amateur the bitch voice knows exactly what to say
00:12:46.720
at exactly the right time to get us to pause and wait and ultimately procrastinate our dreams away
00:12:53.400
okay it doesn't want you to feel totally defeated it doesn't want you to feel totally demoralized
00:12:58.940
because in your misery you're going to find the resolve to start again only this time you're going to
00:13:04.240
work that much harder because you know the voice is coming the bitch voice only wants to delay your
00:13:10.040
win to delay your work it wants you to just put off getting things done for one more day all right and
00:13:17.760
one more day leads to another day and then it leads to another day and then it leads to a week and then
00:13:23.760
it leads to a month and then it leads to years guys this is how i got to be 350 pounds i told myself i was
00:13:30.100
going to start every monday for four fucking years i never started and the reason i didn't start was
00:13:35.080
because i was told every single day hey man you're tired you're stressed this is hard to look we'll
00:13:39.740
tackle this at a later time only that little later time accumulates and accumulates and accumulates
00:13:45.100
until we're to a point where the mountain's so big that you're demoralized by the mountain
00:13:49.180
and then you lose okay so it's very important to understand that this excuse this lie that we tell
00:13:58.840
ourselves about things waiting till tomorrow will ultimately cost you everything you never start
00:14:04.300
tomorrow you always wait and then you end up with a mountain so big you don't even want to climb it so
00:14:09.040
what's the answer is to do it now all right why should you do it now because it's what i've said a
00:14:15.260
billion times before on this show all right and i said it earlier in this talk too action gets results
00:14:21.860
it's an equation of math it's one plus one equals motherfucking two and if you take action right
00:14:28.440
now you are that much closer to the place that you're struggling to be the place that you're angry
00:14:34.100
at yourself for not being will come to fruition that much faster if you go now okay so you cannot
00:14:40.560
continue to tell yourself over and over and over and over and over again to wait because there is no
00:14:47.720
better time than now if you do it now the results happen faster and that's what you're ultimately
00:14:53.420
after the quickest way to get to where you want to go is by taking action right now and continuing to
00:14:59.200
take action and pushing through these lies especially this one about i'm going to wait till tomorrow so
00:15:04.840
that you can make the result happen faster for yourself do you want this result to happen when you're
00:15:08.620
100 or do you want this result to happen a year from now it's up to you okay the bitch voice knows this
00:15:14.960
too guys okay that's why it wants to delay your actions okay it delays your actions so it can delay
00:15:20.620
your progress it can delay the achievement of your goals it can delay the success that you're so
00:15:25.580
desperately after and it can delay your happiness so don't fall for it when you hear the bitch voice
00:15:32.600
whispering make sure that you call it out right away don't procrastinate don't put off your success
00:15:38.100
don't delay your win and remember the quicker that you act now the quicker that the results
00:15:43.340
will assimilate and appear in your life so go right now all right these are three main lies that
00:15:50.900
fuck up your whole life they fuck up your whole success and everything that you're trying to become
00:15:56.520
all right i don't have the resources to get this done bro nobody has the resources that's what forces
00:16:02.520
the creativity that's a skill that you will have a massive advantage with over all of your competitions
00:16:08.800
10 years from now so what you're competing with someone that's better funded so what you're competing
00:16:14.140
with someone rich parents so what you're competing with someone with all the shiny new tools and
00:16:18.920
everything that they need to succeed those people will use those things as a crutch and then 10 years
00:16:24.100
from now when they have to make a creative decision they won't be able to make it because they never
00:16:28.320
honed the skills because they were never forced to because they never understood what it meant to work
00:16:34.280
without actual resources okay i'm too tired to handle this man fuck you everybody's tired that's all i
00:16:41.960
got to say about that every single great thing that you've ever looked at in your entire life was
00:16:46.180
created by tired people just keep that in mind this can wait till tomorrow that's just your own weakness
00:16:51.160
that's your own weakness telling you to put your success off until tomorrow with no intention of
00:16:56.840
actually following through tomorrow okay it kills your success it kills your progress it kills all your
00:17:02.520
dreams and goals and ultimately it kills your happiness all right now take these three things
00:17:07.740
and be aware of them are you using any of these three excuses any of these three lies because if you are
00:17:15.700
if you are using one two or three of them i can promise you you will delay your gratification to the
00:17:22.540
point where you will never realize it ever in the course of your life now take this shit i'm telling you
00:17:29.140
watch it over again think of it are you actually doing these things are these things that you are
00:17:36.300
guilty of and if you are correct them put the truth of this podcast into action and go fucking win
00:17:44.020
most people will never get past these three objections that they create in their own mind
00:17:49.320
and if you can you will have a massive competitive advantage over the course of your entire life
00:17:54.820
over everybody else and that's what we ultimately want
00:17:57.740
went from sleeping on the floor now my jewelry box froze fuck a pole fuck a stole counted millions in the
00:18:04.540
cold bad bitch booted swole got her on bankroll can't fold doesn't know headshot case close
