00:02:25.260 Me and Andy both stealing Christmas trees is just for different reasons.

00:02:32.440 Anyway, what's up, man?

00:02:34.080 Dude, it's good to be here, bro.

00:02:35.480 It's good to be here too.

00:02:36.580 Yes.

00:02:37.160 We went out to eat last night, as you guys know.

00:02:39.260 Honey is the world's most successful, one of the world's most successful bodybuilding

00:02:46.540 coaches, but also mindset coaches.

00:02:48.540 And we went out to dinner last night, and I cheated right in front of him.

00:02:54.940 Hard.

00:02:56.640 I had a bunch of chips and salsa.

00:02:58.540 That was actually, that would have been like four nights ago now.

00:03:01.120 Yeah.

00:03:01.600 We're recording.

00:03:02.160 Anyway, it was nice.

00:03:03.860 It was a really good time, actually.

00:03:05.280 Because you know what?

00:03:06.080 You guys had a break, getting ready for the next 75 hard, which we definitely need to talk

00:03:12.040 about because we're here to game plan.

00:03:14.120 Yeah.

00:03:14.400 A lot of people ask me, even back home, you know, at the headquarters, my Evagen headquarters,

00:03:18.980 they're like, what are you guys going to talk about? 0.99

00:03:20.840 I was like, that's some top secret shit. 0.99

00:03:22.720 Yeah. 1.00

00:03:23.160 You know what I mean?

00:03:23.680 So, and just to give everybody a little bit of a taste of what's going on for 2024, we

00:03:30.060 just finished up the Olympia with my crew.

00:03:33.300 We got Derek, who won this year.

00:03:36.800 Hottie, who took second, who had won last year.

00:03:39.040 My top two guys at the Olympia who flip-flopped, but we kept the top two guys that I coach.

00:03:44.360 And then Sebum took his fifth Olympia title.

00:03:47.240 In a row.

00:03:47.660 In a row.

00:03:48.240 Yeah.

00:03:48.400 You know, with another dominant fashion and super proud of everybody.

00:03:52.680 And now it's, everybody thinks it's time to relax.

00:03:55.780 You know, it's like towards the end of the year and they don't understand guys like us

00:03:59.260 have to level up now because now you just won, but it's what you do with it now.

00:04:03.760 What's the planning look like?

00:04:04.900 What's everything going on with every part of your brand?

00:04:07.760 And so I let everybody know back home.

00:04:09.860 I go, look, I'm going out there.

00:04:11.840 They're like, well, we're all going on vacation or we're doing this.

00:04:14.200 I said, great.

00:04:15.340 I believe in that too.

00:04:16.400 I want my team to also be able to have some downtime, but that doesn't mean I don't still

00:04:21.520 grind.

00:04:22.120 I still don't work.

00:04:22.880 And you and I talk almost every single day, whether it's on text or on the phone.

00:04:26.840 And that's what we do is we try to level each other up on everything that we're doing.

00:04:30.680 So the key for coming out here was to be able to start creating the plan for the 2024 domination.

00:04:37.240 Yeah.

00:04:37.340 For both of us.

00:04:38.040 Right.

00:04:38.440 Yeah.

00:04:39.140 Yeah.

00:04:39.360 One of the cool things that you guys may or may not know and what I wanted to really

00:04:42.780 bring Connie on the show for, you know, you're known as a, as I think unfairly as a bodybuilding 0.98

00:04:52.700 performance coach.

00:04:53.660 And I actually think that's very limited description of what your true expertise is, which is total

00:05:00.460 mental performance at a high level.

00:05:03.400 When I, when I think of honey, you guys probably think of all his Olympic titles with 24 now,

00:05:08.260 24, 24 that you've helped coach.

00:05:10.020 And, um, you know, I think people think about that, but I don't think people think about

00:05:16.320 you for what you, what you really do, which is take the highest performing people and get

00:05:20.940 them to think straight and get them their mind, correct around winning and, uh, what it

00:05:26.580 takes to win.

00:05:27.160 And so, you know, one of the reasons I wanted to have you on, on Q and AF, especially going

00:05:31.740 into new year, because this is our last episode going into, uh, 2024 was to really just have

00:05:39.040 you come on and help us answer some questions so that people could like, you know, see, see

00:05:42.700 that part of you as well.

00:05:43.880 You know what I'm saying?

00:05:44.280 It's not just protein grams and lifting weights, bro.

00:05:47.040 It's, it's up here.

00:05:48.560 Winning is all here.

00:05:50.000 And whether it's bodybuilding, whether it's business or whether it's some other sport or some

00:05:54.700 other mission, winning all requires the same elements.

00:05:58.400 So, um, I'm super, super happy to have you here.

00:06:02.460 Well, thanks for having me, brother.

00:06:03.760 Yeah.

00:06:03.780 No guys, Andy, honey, that's good ones for you.

00:06:07.280 Yeah.

00:06:07.700 Yeah. 0.98

00:06:07.880 Let's knock them out. 0.87

00:06:09.000 Guys, Andy questions.

00:06:11.200 Question number one.

00:06:12.840 Uh, Hey Andy, this is a great opener with 2024, right around the corner.

00:06:17.560 What are the top three things that we should be focused on in business or personal development

00:06:23.020 for this next year?

00:06:23.820 Top three things we should be focused on.

00:06:26.820 Well, first of all, I don't know.

00:06:31.340 Why don't you answer that?

00:06:32.580 I, you know, what it really comes down to with anything, whether it's like you talked about

00:06:36.980 just a minute ago, whether it's your diet or your training program, or whether it's your

00:06:42.080 business plan or how you want to treat your significant other, it's about planning how to

00:06:47.300 be able to change your mindset.

00:06:49.120 Everything is about habits, creating those proper habits.

00:06:52.520 So for me, what that's about is me getting my ass out here to be able to work because

00:06:58.040 we, we work really, really well off of one another because a lot of the things that I 0.68

00:07:02.120 work on with you is just a reflection of what I also need to work on.

00:07:06.300 For sure.

00:07:06.620 Right.

00:07:06.800 Because we own both on supplement companies.

00:07:09.100 We both do coaching.

00:07:10.580 We also do things like that are very, very similar, even though they're in very different

00:07:14.700 types of, um, you know, uh, the size of what you do is much bigger than mine.

00:07:19.960 But what the intensity of what I do with having to win Olympia titles is on a different realm.

00:07:26.600 So it balances one another out.

00:07:28.280 So for me, what I respect about the people that went around me is being able to set goals.

00:07:34.860 So I love the fact that I bring people around me that have these amazing stories and being

00:07:41.260 able to follow their journey and set down so I can be able to create my own blueprint for my

00:07:46.360 future. So that next 24 months, 12 months that I'm looking for 2024 for me is about sitting down

00:07:53.160 and saying, how do I set goals and be able to reverse engineer them? When I set a diet program

00:07:58.720 for an athlete, I don't sit down and say, okay, what are we going to do day one? What do we need

00:08:02.900 to look like at the end of the year towards the Mr. Olympia and work backwards 12 or 16 weeks out

00:08:08.040 for that prep period? That's a phase. Then how do we need to look in the mid series of that program?

00:08:13.800 And then what do we got to do in the beginning of the year and how those phases go into phase one,

00:08:18.620 two, and three. So what do I got to do with my mindset? Do I got to wake up earlier? Do I got

00:08:23.020 to be able to be physically stronger so that my mental sharpness will get better, right? You and I

00:08:29.120 talk about that. You do your plunges, all of that stuff helps making sure to create mental clarity.

00:08:33.820 So putting all of the ingredients together, like a chef that goes into the store, they have to be able to

00:08:39.480 get all of those ingredients together to be able to prepare the ultimate meal. That's what I do.

00:08:44.580 I'm sitting down and going, okay, what are all the things that I need to do to put everybody in

00:08:48.740 place? Do I have my sous chef in place? Do I have my front, you know, uh, everybody that's going to

00:08:53.760 be on the front end of all of the people that are going to support me for these goals in place,

00:08:58.100 make sure that all those are happening. So for me, it's about putting the blueprint together.

00:09:02.160 Yeah. I think, well, first of all, I mean, you have to, I think, I think that's a great point.

00:09:08.280 Um, I'm going to build on it for a second. You know, a lot of people try to approach the new year

00:09:15.820 every year and they say, well, I'm going to change everything I'm going to do, but they don't even

00:09:20.580 really set a target. They, they take more time to plan out their weekend or their vacation or what

00:09:26.060 they're going to do over the summer than they do their entire year of what they plan to accomplish.

00:09:31.220 And, you know, if we're talking about what are the three things, obviously, you know, 0.98

00:09:37.120 figuring out where the fuck you want to be is a big part of it. And a lot of people don't do that. 0.97

00:09:41.700 They just want to start off doing what everybody else is doing, thinking that somehow this is just

00:09:46.760 going to make their situation better. And while it might, it's going to make the work very hard to

00:09:51.680 do because you lack the direction on what you're actually trying to accomplish. So when the work gets

00:09:56.120 tough and you don't have the picture of what it is you're trying to become in your mind,

00:10:00.820 very clear, you're, you don't have that, that vision and that motivation to pull you through

00:10:07.120 the hard times. You know, here's what I think, man. I think 2024 is probably going to be one of

00:10:13.340 the most chaotic years ever, uh, in our lifetimes and how chaotic we don't know yet. I don't know.

00:10:19.580 You don't know. And nobody knows. But the one thing that I do know is that it's going to be tough

00:10:24.720 and there's going to be people that win and there's going to be people that lose.

00:10:28.680 And there's going to be people who say, man, you know, like all tough times, uh, there's going to

00:10:35.660 be people who kind of roll back and go into their turtle shell and say, I'm going to wait for times

00:10:41.400 to get better. I'm going to wait for things to get easier. And then there's going to be people

00:10:44.580 that are going to know that other people are doing that. And they're going to go extra hard knowing

00:10:48.940 that they can widen the gap between themselves and everybody else. And so if you're out there

00:10:54.380 right now and you're thinking like, well, shit, dude, you know, 2024 is going to be so hard, 0.99

00:10:58.400 you know, and you're thinking about all the chaos that's happening in the world. You have to see 1.00

00:11:03.000 the opportunity in that. And the opportunity in that is that most people will wait and they will

00:11:08.460 wait and wait and wait and wait and wait. And especially during hard times, they like to,

00:11:12.500 they like to stop and pause. And so that's a trigger for anybody who's a high achiever,

00:11:16.300 anybody who has the drive and the ambition inside of them to go hard, to go extra hard.

00:11:23.040 And so what are the top three things you should be doing? Well, first of all, you have to understand

00:11:27.740 that your ultimate weapon in life is your mindset. All right. It's getting your mind, right? It's

00:11:32.640 getting your focus, right? It's understanding what it is you need to do and optimizing that as much as

00:11:37.360 possible. I talk about that in terms of becoming mentally tough, which is why the 75 hard program

00:11:43.240 and the live hard program have become a central focus for so many people's lives because it

00:11:48.720 continuously sharpens the weapon that we go to battle with every day, which starts in our mind,

00:11:54.540 flows to our body, and then goes outward from there. So my first piece of advice for anyone

00:12:00.220 that's looking to make a change in 2024 is that simply, dude, start 75 hard with us on January 1st.

00:12:07.120 There's a huge group of people doing it. If you don't do 75 hard, make another commitment that

00:12:12.640 you're going to see through to the end, but get your mind right first. A lot of people try to focus

00:12:18.300 on their body and they say, well, I'm going to lose weight or I'm going to get in shape or I'm

00:12:22.260 tired of living in this body. And the surface level motivation of just having a better body really

00:12:27.440 doesn't pull many people all the way through the journey. You have to look at it as I'm trying to

00:12:33.120 create the best version of me. And that starts on the inside with my brain. And so if you can take on

00:12:37.920 a mental fitness program and work to recreate your mental toughness, now, you know, the other things

00:12:45.500 are going to come much more easily. So my first thing would be understand that whatever you decide

00:12:50.600 to do, it's going to require this machine, this weapon, your mind, your body, your soul. And your job

00:12:57.720 going into 2024 should be to take the opportunity of the time that is very chaotic, where a lot of people

00:13:05.380 lose focus and become mega focused into building yourself into the ultimate version of you. That would

00:13:11.240 be my first thing that you should do. The second thing that you should do on top of that is like

00:13:16.420 Hani said, figure out exactly what you're trying to do and start to curtail this machine in that

00:13:23.420 direction. Okay. Just sharpening your mind for the sake of sharpening your mind is not the goal. Just getting

00:13:30.000 your body in a great position or a healthy position is not the goal. That's you do these

00:13:35.420 things for other things. What is the other thing? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to build

00:13:39.600 a business? Are you trying to, you know, build an organization? Are you trying to build a team?

00:13:45.860 Are you trying to contribute to an organization? What are you trying to do? Use the thing, your body,

00:13:51.440 your mind, your soul, the weapon, develop that and apply it to the thing. And I think the third thing

00:13:56.400 that we all need to do in 2024, uh, besides, you know, just focus on ourselves is be selfless

00:14:03.440 in the fact of understanding that we are in a situation and culture where if we're divided,

00:14:11.700 they win. If we're united, we win. And they're going to do everything they can over the next 12

00:14:16.900 months to make us fight, make things chaotic, divide us, make people argue over dumb shit, 0.99

00:14:23.840 like the pigment level of their skin, all these identity politic issues. And I think being a 0.99

00:14:29.660 source of excellence, uh, personally, uh, applying yourself forward to a goal. And then also being a

00:14:36.120 messenger of unity with your neighbor and your friends and people who you normally disagree with

00:14:40.640 is of utmost importance. Um, because the only way that these people could continue to do what

00:14:46.240 they do in our country is to divide us and make us fight over shit that really doesn't matter. 0.97

00:14:50.720 And the stronger we are mentally, the more focused we are in doing good, the more focused we are in 0.97

00:14:55.720 doing what it is that we need to do in our lives. Um, the better example we set. And then if we follow

00:15:00.740 that up with a strong message of, Hey man, uh, look, we're all in the same boat. Uh, you might think

00:15:07.300 we're on a different boat because you know, the media tells you that, or the government tells you

00:15:10.760 that, but the reality is, is that's the trick they pull on us. And so I think it's going to be very

00:15:15.160 important in 2024 for everybody to rise above the chaos, to rise above the frustration and the anger

00:15:21.680 and the division and really work to build bridges instead of burn them with people that we would

00:15:28.680 typically disagree with so that we don't lose, uh, this amazing country that we are blessed to live

00:15:34.640 in. So that that's, that's kind of how I put it together for 2024. I think it's going to be

00:15:38.640 politically tumultuous. I think it's going to be very, very, uh, difficult. I think there's

00:15:44.080 massive opportunity through the chaos for people who look at it and say, Hey, while everybody else

00:15:48.260 is running around with a chicken, uh, like a chicken with their head cut off, I'm going to

00:15:51.820 get super focused, massive personal opportunity, but that creates an opportunity to set an example 0.98

00:15:57.760 for everybody else that feels like, Holy shit, what should I do? And if they look at you and they 0.92

00:16:02.300 see you taking care of you, taking care of your body, taking care of your mind, taking care of your

00:16:05.900 business, taking care of your community, they realize that that's what ultimately matters.

00:16:10.460 And whatever these people do in our government, whatever these people do with our media is really

00:16:14.860 irrelevant if we take the power back individually. So, uh, I think that's the theme for 2024, at least

00:16:20.620 for the people that listen to this show, it's become personally excellent, set a high standard,

00:16:25.680 set a good example for everybody else, get engaged, get involved, work to build bridges instead

00:16:31.380 of burning them down and, uh, don't be a victim to the mental games that are being put down on us

00:16:37.700 for the sake of them controlling us. Remember us divided is their power. Us united is our power. And

00:16:45.080 that's going to be the, that's going to be the way we win. Ultimately, it's going to be by regular

00:16:48.600 people like me and you and all of us out here being excellent and working together, uh, to stick 1.00

00:16:54.180 together and not be divided by stupid shit. These people do. So, well, guys, question number two, 1.00

00:17:02.820 um, I'm 18 years old and I realized that I was extremely sheltered for most of my life.

00:17:07.780 Um, I was never encouraged to play sports or to compete and I've just been floating,

00:17:13.340 trying to figure life out. I fear that I won't be able to compete at high levels in life since I

00:17:19.520 wasn't able to build that when I was younger. Can this killer mindset and desire to compete still

00:17:25.660 be learned or is it too late? And if so, how? Well, first of all, dude, you're still a kid.

00:17:34.080 Like you're 18 year. I realize you're the oldest you've ever been, but you still ain't shit yet, 0.99

00:17:39.460 bro. Okay. You're, you're still like barely a sperm. Okay. That's the reality. You're, 0.99

00:17:45.060 you're a sperm with a fucking head and some fucking arms and legs. Like a little dinosaur. 1.00

00:17:49.620 You haven't done shit yet. I know you think you're old and they say you're an adult, but still, 0.99

00:17:53.340 you're still a kid, dude. And the fact that you're aware that you've been sheltered and you're aware

00:17:57.960 that you need to develop this killer instinct and this competitive mentality, uh, really honestly

00:18:03.220 is the solution to the problem in the first place. So the answer is yes, absolutely. You can become

00:18:08.260 that kind of person. Um, and the way you become that kind of person is by surrounding yourself with

00:18:14.060 those kinds of inputs, reading about those kinds of people, learning about those kinds of people,

00:18:18.060 getting involved with those kinds of people, getting on in competitive environments. Um,

00:18:23.580 you know, I do think there's a little bit of an element of, of being a natural born competitor

00:18:28.760 that gives certain people an advantage. But I also think the fact that, you know, people like,

00:18:34.020 I think some of the biggest fucking killers I've ever met come from a background of like what this 0.98

00:18:38.520 guy's talking about, where they come from a place where they were just okay. And they really 1.00

00:18:42.760 weren't that competitive and they didn't really understand what it took to win. And they became

00:18:47.120 a fucking monster because they realized that space needed to be filled in their life. And then they 1.00

00:18:52.040 dedicated themselves to that. I don't, I don't know, man, like you've coached a lot of high level

00:18:57.040 competitors. I mean, do you think it's something that people are born with? Or do you think it's

00:19:00.220 something people can develop? Or do you think it's both? It's part of both. And what I think is that

00:19:04.560 everybody has a chip on their shoulder and what you got to do is you got to figure out what that chip is.

00:19:08.800 And some people don't realize that until a little bit later in life. Some people have that because

00:19:15.020 they have a hardship when they were growing up. They had lack of, they got angry and they end up

00:19:21.200 either getting into a mentality of victim or they turn around and say, I'm going to try to be able

00:19:28.080 to break out of this so I can create freedom. Whether it's financial freedom, breaking away from a bad

00:19:33.900 home, parent issues, whatever it is, it's financial issues. What you got to do is you got to take that

00:19:41.120 chip on your shoulder and lean into it. I always say what you got to do is take that chip and be able

00:19:47.000 to use it as a block to stand on so you can elevate yourself, make yourself hungry. Every single one of

00:19:53.460 my athletes, every single one of the CEOs, every single one of the people that I've ever coached, I found what

00:19:57.700 that chip was and whether they knew it or not. I really exemplified to them what it is that made

00:20:04.800 them great. And we'll go from good to great, great to legendary. And what you do is you try to find

00:20:12.800 that within you. So if you're 18 years old or 15 years old and you have a chip on your shoulder,

00:20:18.040 we all did. Every person in this room has that. Some of us leaned into it more and that's why we've

00:20:25.440 been able to create a little bit better result. But you have to signify and be able to really

00:20:32.000 put that out there and say, I'm fucked up because of this. Some of your friends, you guys can be, 0.94

00:20:40.240 really will know, some of your friends are either in jail, dead, or still drinking, trying to find that

00:20:45.220 solution on the bottom of a bottle of tequila somewhere to try to be able to deaden that pain.

00:20:49.720 The key is to be able to utilize that pain for fuel to make you hungry. When people talk shit 0.99

00:20:55.400 about me when I was growing up, I use that for fuel because they said, Hey, look, he's a one-off guy 0.99

00:21:01.220 and he's only worked with this person one time or he's got lucky. A broken watch is right twice a

00:21:10.280 day. Yeah, but it ain't right 24 times in a fucking row. At the Olympia level, especially. That's how 1.00

00:21:15.260 you got to look at it. But when you're sitting there trying to do something and when I was selling my

00:21:20.040 first product for the solution of making a better version of my athlete, because I thought there was 0.95

00:21:26.000 a lot of shit out there and I didn't make me two products. I started my, my system with my products 0.90

00:21:31.540 with a $70 non-stim pre-workout when the number one product out there was a DMA product that was

00:21:35.700 $29 on bodybuilding.com. It was never about that. It was never about being me too. It was about,

00:21:41.980 yes, because you use passion to create a solution, right? But what you got to do to make the best

00:21:47.920 version of yourself is you have to say, I need to be able to find out what is going to fuel me,

00:21:52.960 what I'm passionate about, and think about the profit after the passion. The passion comes first

00:21:58.760 and create that solution. So I just feel like anytime you try to level up, you got to be able

00:22:03.780 to do that. And you can never do that with negativity around you. That's the number one thing is that at the

00:22:09.300 end of this year, the beginning of 2024, if you're listening to this podcast, get the fuck rid of 0.99

00:22:15.140 negativity, because I will tell you it's contagious and it's cancerous. You need to get rid of it. 0.99

00:22:20.660 And if you don't, you will never get to where you want to go. Period.

00:22:24.600 I think that's, I think there's a good point in there too. A sub point. Um, when you're one of

00:22:29.760 these people who, who really hasn't done anything, right? Like I think a lot of people on the internet,

00:22:34.440 like this person asking this question, they hear all these crazy stories of people who are successful

00:22:41.400 now about how they were in the past or the, the, like we hear all these like ridiculously overhyped

00:22:48.220 rags to riches stories of people who started, like I was eating dirt on the street. Like that's

00:22:54.400 what I survived on was mud. You know what I mean? Like, yeah, let's get the fuck out of here, bro.

00:22:59.920 Okay. Like, let's be real. Most of these people are exaggerating their hardship story. All right. 0.96

00:23:04.480 That's first thing first. Most of these people, when they become great, there's very few humble,

00:23:11.360 great people there. There's, there's a lot of people. Actually, I'm going to take that back.

00:23:16.520 There's very few humble, good people and all great people generally are pretty humble when you get

00:23:22.380 them around because the humility is required to get that good. Um, but what happens is, is we look

00:23:29.100 around and there's a lot of people that appear to be successful or appear to be winning.

00:23:33.180 And they talk about how they always had this competitive drive and they always had this

00:23:37.980 fire and they always blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And it makes people like this who might come

00:23:42.380 from, let's say a decent background or, uh, you know, a middle-class good mom and dad, they think

00:23:49.200 that like, they don't have the enough pain in their background. That's bullshit, bro. You have enough 1.00

00:23:56.340 juice to do the thing, but what you need to do and what honey, honey said and, and, and, and clarify,

00:24:02.220 is you have to remove the negativity. So you have to be prepared. Like when you start to decide to be

00:24:10.000 something that's different than what everybody else, your entire life has always known you as

00:24:15.680 you're going to face a lot of negativity, a lot of criticism, a lot of questions. Who do you think

00:24:21.700 you are? What are you trying to do? Do you really think you could do that? People like you don't

00:24:26.020 accomplish those things. And it's going to be discouraging. It's going to take you from a

00:24:30.340 place of drive and hunger and ambition and dreaming to a place of doubt and questioning and saying,

00:24:38.860 man, I don't know, maybe they're right. Maybe they're right. Maybe, maybe, maybe I'm not cut

00:24:42.840 out for this. Maybe, maybe this isn't my thing. Maybe this isn't for people like me. Maybe I don't

00:24:47.420 have a tough enough story. Maybe, maybe I don't have any skills and dude, I don't buy into that.

00:24:52.240 I think, I think it's very important for you to under, this is the reality, dude.

00:24:57.340 If you're going to step out from what you have always been into something new, you have to be

00:25:03.760 prepared to cut all of the old out because all of the old will constantly be in your ear, chirping, 1.00

00:25:09.800 making you doubt, making you question, making you slow down, making you hesitate. And all of those

00:25:15.160 qualities will keep you from becoming that thing that you're trying to become. So it's very important

00:25:19.600 for you to understand that when you decide to become that version of yourself that lives inside 0.98

00:25:25.220 of your heart, that nobody else even fucking knows about. Okay. Because you're too afraid to talk 0.98

00:25:30.360 about it because you're afraid everybody's going to laugh at you. First of all, that's the thing

00:25:35.200 you're supposed to become. Whatever that is, that's what you're supposed to become. You need

00:25:38.640 to listen to that. But secondly, when you start to become that all the people who knew you your entire

00:25:45.200 life, including your parents. And if you're very lucky, you'll have one or two of those

00:25:49.040 people back you up on it and say, I think you should go do that. But most of the people are

00:25:53.100 going to doubt you. Most of the people are going to question you. Most of the people are going to

00:25:57.280 think you're fucking crazy and they're never really going to believe. In fact, we were just talking 1.00

00:26:02.080 about a Bible verse that you, you gave to me, which was, uh, which one was it?

00:26:07.820 Matthew 15, I believe four, seven or four, eight. That was forwarded to me this morning.

00:26:11.800 And it was something it's right along the lines of what we're talking about. Yes. Yes. It was,

00:26:17.080 uh, I'm sorry, Matthew 13, five, seven. And it said no pro in so many words, no prophet has honor

00:26:23.180 in his own town. And that means that when someone comes in to try to preach within their own, where

00:26:30.700 they grew up, it's very list. It's very difficult for those types of people who saw you come up to

00:26:35.460 actually listen to you because they feel like they were part of your journey before that. So they're

00:26:40.580 like, is he really, they showed doubt, right? Happened to me as a bodybuilding trainer. I,

00:26:45.920 one of the, and I never knew I even did this. I just did it. My own town of San Jose, California,

00:26:51.880 people just, I just, they're like, Hey, this person's trying to compete against you. This guy's

00:26:55.960 kind of trying to talk shit about you. All these local trainers. I just kept my blinders on. And all 0.99

00:27:01.460 I did was kept my head down and I focused, I got on the plane. I went to the mystery USA. I went to

00:27:06.740 the nationals. I went to overseas. I did whatever I did, but I didn't look at all the people around 0.99

00:27:11.980 me. And I wasn't trying to get them to be able to compete against me or vice versa. All I did was

00:27:18.000 try to be able to go through and hit wins, go for the W, bring in my people the best I possibly can

00:27:25.140 and move on. And then I started working with some NFL athletes and I was walking with bodybuilders

00:27:28.860 because I bought a bit, I was bodybuilding at a young age. And so bodybuilding was always my

00:27:33.440 passion, but I was always interested in all the other sports to be able to try to perfect

00:27:38.720 their physique or their performance to the best of my ability. But I never went back and tried to

00:27:45.020 focus on the people around me in my given town or area because there were always, I mean, to this day,

00:27:52.240 if I go back and my wife's store sells Evagen, First Form, Accent Select, a billion different

00:27:59.880 brands, Sebums brand, all of our friendship, all of our friendship. And we do all of that.

00:28:04.820 But what's funny is these people that have been friends with me for 20, 30 years, I'll never see

00:28:08.840 them use my product. And it's okay. There's some people that, and they come over and they'll

00:28:14.120 congratulate me on the wins and whatnot. But it's because it's hard for certain people to be able to

00:28:19.560 actually absorb what your successes were because it's a reflection of maybe what they weren't able

00:28:25.640 to do. And that's okay. But you got to understand that. So sometimes you have to go outside of that

00:28:31.980 inner circle because you'll just never, as much as you want them to be the ones to believe in you

00:28:36.340 the most because you grew up with them, maybe not the right time. Dude, it takes, it takes a long

00:28:41.960 time. It does. Like, I'll be honest with you. This is just honest to God. And it may never happen,

00:28:45.720 bro. It may never happen, but that's okay too. I'm from St. Louis. Okay.

00:28:53.080 St. Louis is a very blue collar, proud city. You know, if you're from St. Louis, most of the people

00:28:58.600 that are from St. Louis, they're proud to be from St. Louis. And even though I am one of their people

00:29:04.880 and I came from here and I've gone on and built all of these things, it like now when I, I mean,

00:29:11.660 now when I go out and see people, everybody's, everybody's supporting us. Everybody's pushing

00:29:16.980 us forward. Everybody uses first form. Everybody's proud, but dude, it took 20 years to get there.

00:29:23.140 Like it took me 20 years to earn the respect of the people in our own city. And, and dude,

00:29:29.040 you know, and maybe that's the right way. Maybe that's what it should take. I don't know,

00:29:32.660 but I can tell you this. I was bitter about it for a long time. It frustrated me. You know,

00:29:37.480 when we first started with first form, dude, and I put that shit on our retail shelves and our stores 0.98

00:29:41.860 here, people would pick it up and they would say, St. Louis, what, what are they doing? Making this 0.98

00:29:46.060 an Andy's bathtub, you know? And that would fucking piss me off, bro. This is our own people in our 0.99

00:29:50.540 own city, like shitting on my own attempt to try and do something relevant. This is for us. Yeah. 0.99

00:29:58.240 And, uh, and, and it took a long time for people to really get behind us. And, and dude, I think,

00:30:03.100 you know, I think that's what it takes. I think it takes an extra long time to make believers out

00:30:08.140 of the people that are closest to you because they knew you for so long before that. I'm about to

00:30:12.100 say like that. That's what I think it's like. I mean, and I was beginning at least like, yeah,

00:30:15.820 they don't, do they have a reason to believe you at all? Well, I think that's a valid argument,

00:30:19.740 right? Well, dude, we do live in the show me state. Like motherfuckers here don't believe shit

00:30:23.920 until it's like right in front of their face, which I love. Cause I'm the same way. So there's that too, 1.00

00:30:28.680 right? Like what have you done to earn that belief? You're not entitled to people supporting

00:30:33.780 people's belief. And in fact, if you've been around your friends and family your whole life,

00:30:38.220 and you've been a bump on the log and not done shit, you know what they're going to say? When 0.56

00:30:41.940 you say you're going to done doing that, they're going to say bullshit because that's all they've 1.00

00:30:45.600 ever known. So when you think about it like that, it's, it's a logical connection for them to 0.98

00:30:50.240 observe. And we have to be real dude. If we step out and, and do become a different,

00:30:56.780 a completely different version of ourselves that is foreign to everybody who's known us

00:31:01.800 our whole lives, there's going to be doubt. But the thing that you have to understand is

00:31:06.900 first of all, that's logical on their end. And, and second of all, you have for you to

00:31:13.220 be successful, you have to separate yourself from that for a while. You have to, you have

00:31:17.080 to push that away and go over here and keep your head down and do the fucking work and do 0.99

00:31:21.900 it day in and day out and day in and day out and day in and day out. And eventually you 0.99

00:31:26.080 will build something or become something that those people will say, damn, he actually did 0.98

00:31:31.000 that. Or she actually did that, you know? And then when the support comes from that and 0.98

00:31:35.400 you've made real believers out of people that were doubting those people become your biggest

00:31:39.560 supporters. That's what we see here in St. Louis right now. Right? Like, dude, I can't

00:31:43.840 go anywhere in St. Louis without seeing this energy drink or seeing a first form shirt or having 0.83

00:31:48.420 people come up and say, dude, what you guys are doing is fucking awesome. Like it's become

00:31:53.260 the sense of civic pride, which dude makes me very proud. Right? Cause I love this fucking

00:31:57.880 city. And, um, anyway, the point is you're going to have to understand that the people 0.99

00:32:04.500 closest to you are going to be the least amount to believe in you in first. And it, and it

00:32:07.360 feels awkward because you think in your head, those should be the people that believe the

00:32:10.700 most. It's just not reality. And, uh, you're going to have to separate yourself from that

00:32:15.120 negativity for a while. You're going to have to put your head down. You're going to have

00:32:17.800 to do what's required. And it could take, it could take two decades for those people

00:32:22.280 to come back around. But the reality is, is they will. And when they do, you're going

00:32:26.220 to feel extra proud about it. Not bitter about it. You know, I'm very grateful. I'm

00:32:31.160 grateful that the people here doubted me at first, that doubted us at first. I'm

00:32:35.460 grateful for that. Cause you know what that gave me a whole lot of fucking fuel. You 0.99

00:32:39.400 know what I'm saying? I'm over here. I'm like, dude, these people, I'm, what are you

00:32:42.540 talking about? I'm, I'm here, dude. I'm from here. You don't want us to win. And then

00:32:46.220 I went out and fucking did everything I had to do and I needed that fuel. And so a lot 0.98

00:32:49.960 of ways, if you look at it, like, I think if you look at it from the other side of the

00:32:53.560 mountain, right, once you've climbed the tech, you have a different perspective on

00:32:55.980 it. And the perspective I have on it now is like, dude, I'm kind of thankful because

00:32:59.380 that pushed me to continue. You know what I mean? So at the end of the day, dude, we

00:33:03.840 have to use these doubts and these criticisms and this negativity and this disbelief as fuel

00:33:08.340 for productive action. And just like we talked about on that real talk just recently,

00:33:12.800 where I went through the, the, the techniques on how to harness the dark side energy, you

00:33:19.120 know, you need some of that dark side energy, bro. And you have to accept it for what it

00:33:23.340 is, no matter where it comes from. And every time you feel like quitting, every time you

00:33:27.320 feel like giving up, every time you feel like it's not worth it, you need to remember what 0.99

00:33:31.060 these motherfuckers said and, and, and then go do something that puts you closer to where 1.00

00:33:34.500 you want to go. And, um, well, let me add to that. Yeah. I don't, I don't think you 1.00

00:33:38.700 have to be born with it though. No, I think you can, I think there's a lot of people, there's

00:33:42.900 a lot of people who feel because there's influencers out here who are like, I'm just built different

00:33:49.740 or I'm just wired different. And I'm one of those people. Like I do feel like I'm built

00:33:54.220 different, but, uh, I wasn't always, but you know what it takes to build. Yeah. It wasn't

00:33:58.680 always bro. Like, dude, I was kind of a shitty fucking, I was kind of lazy. Actually, I'm 0.99

00:34:03.060 probably one of the laziest people in the world. I just use systems to not be, you know what

00:34:06.540 I mean? So yeah, but look, look at this too. A lot of you out here that are listening to

00:34:10.800 this are going to say, well, that's great. Look, you're already there for the people that

00:34:15.120 are speaking on this podcast right now. It's easier for you to say, no, because we weren't

00:34:20.000 Rome wasn't built in a day, right? I've been doing this for 30 fucking years. I gave away 0.99

00:34:24.740 a lot of free programs. I trained anybody who had potential to be able to show my efforts

00:34:30.400 and what I could do. There were a blank campus out there. I turned around and got burnt by people

00:34:34.740 that were turning around. They're going to tell me they were going to pay me. Oh, if you let me

00:34:37.720 win, it'll help me win. You let me get to that point. I helped them get contracts, this and this

00:34:42.440 help do all the different things. And then I still got burnt because I said, you know what? It'll come

00:34:47.140 back to me in spades in other ways. You just got to believe the reason why it's going to take

00:34:52.920 everybody longer than what you expect is because God is going to teach you humility. And if you get that

00:35:00.260 too soon, you won't have the humility. You won't have the maturity to understand that. No, even though

00:35:06.380 you can turn around and tear that motherfucker's head off that pissed you off four years ago, you won't 1.00

00:35:11.700 because it took you eight or 10 or 15 years to get to where you were going to be so that you don't do 1.00

00:35:17.740 that because you will show mercy when it comes to that, because now you're going to be much better

00:35:23.420 at being able to handle that power and wield that power. That's why it's taking it. You have

00:35:30.000 to listen to his plan, not yours. How many people have you seen like in your, you know, in your

00:35:36.060 experience, you know, you and I have been in the industry for a long time. Um, the same industry,

00:35:43.820 not just in our industry, but in any industry, how many people have you witnessed become a winner

00:35:52.500 or become successful in business fast and be able to maintain it?

00:35:58.660 Very, very few. I, everyone that I know that has become a winner in my eyes too quickly

00:36:07.420 without understanding and appreciating the fundamentals has all lost it.

00:36:12.680 I agree. Every single one. I can't even tell you one. And so the reason I ask you this is because

00:36:17.800 this is one of the most successful coaches of all time for high performing individuals.

00:36:22.620 Okay. I'm also pretty respectable in that area. I built the world's largest mental transformation

00:36:28.020 program that's ever fucking existed. And I'm going to tell you for a fucking fact, 0.99

00:36:32.280 this struggle that you are all trying to avoid is actually the best part of your journey 0.99

00:36:36.220 because it's teaching you all the traits and all the skills and all the habits and all the shit 0.81

00:36:41.420 that you need to keep success. Once you get it, becoming successful is not the hard part. 0.93

00:36:47.140 It is not. It's maintaining that year after year, after year, after year, after year.

00:36:52.400 And if you talk, because dude, once you went, fuck dude, you could talk about this. 1.00

00:36:56.940 Once you win at the highest level, people, anything else besides that is a massive fucking loss. 1.00

00:37:04.020 It's an embarrassment. You're the worst ever. You could win the fucking Superbowl two years in a row, 1.00

00:37:09.680 but if you don't win it in a third year, you're a piece of shit. So once you achieve this high level 1.00

00:37:14.620 of success or this greatness, it's about maintaining it. And you can't maintain it without

00:37:20.520 the fucking struggle that takes years and years and years to go through. 0.99

00:37:23.800 So for you, it ain't luck. It ain't fucking skill. Okay. There is a reason that first form has been 1.00

00:37:32.560 hot for 10 motherfucking years in a row. That's never happened in the industry. It's never happened. 0.95

00:37:37.600 Never. Okay. But it's because for 15 years before that, I got my fucking ass beat.

00:37:43.500 Yeah. And everybody laughed at me and everybody hated me and everybody talks shit and they still 1.00

00:37:49.660 talk shit when I'm saying what I'm going to do. And I love it. Cause I'm like, Oh, okay, cool. 0.99

00:37:54.400 Good. Not, I still haven't convinced you. I got a few more to prove, you know what I'm saying?

00:37:57.780 So we got to become these people who are willing to take in like, bro. I love when people doubt me.

00:38:05.000 I love when people fuck, you know, this about me, dude, I will do the worst thing you can do. 1.00

00:38:10.400 If you compete with me is to fucking talk some shit to me, bro. No, it's the best thing they can do 1.00

00:38:14.740 because it actually gets you to actually get up. It's the best thing for me. Yeah. It's the worst thing for them.

00:38:19.260 Right. It is the worst thing for them. I'm just going to tell you if you, cause I know a lot of

00:38:23.720 my competitors listen to this. Yep. Leave me to fuck alone. It's the best thing you could do for

00:38:28.100 yourself. Don't please. Yeah. Don't leave them alone. Yeah. But like, bro, what I'm saying is

00:38:32.840 you have to become one of these people that can fucking take the dark shit, the negative shit, 1.00

00:38:38.440 the disbelief, the doubt, the frustration, the pain, the criticism, and chew that shit up in your 1.00

00:38:45.220 mouth and swallow it and let, let it drive you. And if you can't develop that, which, 0.99

00:38:50.060 which anybody can, if they think about it, right. But if you can't, there's so much of that that

00:38:55.340 comes, you cannot be effective. And there's a lot of, there's a lot of champions out here, bro,

00:39:00.060 that are very humble and they're very, they're very cool and they're very nice people. But I promise

00:39:05.680 you, if you get them alone and you, and it's just me and them, I promise you there's a fucking 1.00

00:39:11.800 warrior on the inside of that, that has the ability to chew that shit up and fucking put 1.00

00:39:15.840 it into productive action. They might not talk about it. They might not make it their 1.00

00:39:19.640 identity. They might be more disciplined at how they present themselves than I am. Cause

00:39:23.940 I'm just a fucking wild animal. I can't help it. It is what it is. I let people see my dark 1.00

00:39:29.480 side. That's the difference. A lot of people don't. And for better or worse, it is what it

00:39:33.560 is. Why do you think that is? Uh, cause I don't give a fuck. No. Yeah, I don't give a fuck.

00:39:39.420 No, no, it's not. You give a fuck, but it's cause you literally wear it on your face. 1.00

00:39:44.660 Oh, well, I mean, well, that's what happens when somebody tries to stab you in the face 1.00

00:39:48.040 and kill you. Yeah. Yeah. No shit. You do wear it. Yeah. It's on your face. Yeah. And 0.99

00:39:52.560 I think a lot of people forget, you know, that's what makes you, you. Yeah. I don't know.

00:39:59.640 I think it's more, I think it's more valuable being authentic about that to other people.

00:40:04.100 I think there's enough people to hide it. I think it's important for people like this young

00:40:08.200 person to see, Hey dude, it's okay to be someone who takes people's negative shit and 0.99

00:40:13.240 fucking uses it to win. That's okay. Cause we have a lot of positive patties out here 1.00

00:40:17.020 that like try to shit on that and say, Oh, that's not the way to do it. Really. What 0.99

00:40:21.620 you should be doing is trying to prove everybody that they're right. That believe in you.

00:40:25.460 Motherfucker. Nobody believes in me. What the fuck do I do now? Oh, I take all the motherfuckers 1.00

00:40:30.800 that don't. And I chew the shit up and I go hard as fuck. And that's, that's what you 1.00

00:40:34.680 got to do when you don't have anybody who believes in you. So, you know, I just choose

00:40:39.360 to, I just choose to fucking show people that that's okay. You know? And I'm, I like that 0.98

00:40:44.280 shit, dude. I'm a warrior. I like fucking slitting throats and stomping on fucking faces 1.00

00:40:48.160 and all that shit, bro. But I'll also be the first guy to pick you up, dude. After I 1.00

00:40:52.420 stomp on a little bit, you know what I'm saying?

00:40:54.220 Yeah. I think I, I don't know, bro. I'm a fucking weird, but you're not weird. You're not

00:41:02.540 weird. This is because this is what makes you, you and being from some, you know, a 0.98

00:41:07.400 background of not having shit to coming along and being able to build something as big as 0.97

00:41:12.120 you have. It's a lot of these people that are listening need to understand that they 0.97

00:41:17.180 want these tools. They're coming back to this podcast. They're coming back to this YouTube

00:41:21.320 page and they want to be able to take pieces of this away so that they can make a better

00:41:26.800 version of themselves. So tell me this right now, what can we share with the audience to

00:41:32.460 start out this 2024 new year that we can be able to get them to be able to make the

00:41:37.460 best version of themselves? I think they need mentorship. I think they need to be able to

00:41:46.780 follow a program, whether it's 75 hard, whether, because for me, and I'm going to start this

00:41:51.140 out, it's about sacrificing, right? You have to sacrifice something to take something. So

00:41:58.620 what does that mean? When you do 75 hard, when you do a fast, okay, whether it's Ramadan,

00:42:03.740 whether it's people go through, what it's intentional suffering. It's right. Yeah. Cause

00:42:07.580 you're cleansing your soul through the physical nature of your being. And that's what builds

00:42:12.480 things. But buying shit at DoorDash at midnight and getting Taco Bell and doing this and that 0.98

00:42:16.820 is not that. And that's what turns around and clouds your mind, waking up feeling like 0.99

00:42:21.200 dog shit. Yeah. That's so different than going out and drinking every fucking night. 1.00

00:42:25.160 Dude, I think if people understood, bro, I think if people truly understood how great 0.99

00:42:30.340 they could be, like, if you could take, if you could take an average person right now

00:42:35.200 who's suffering, who's overweight, who's just sick and tired, like, cause dude, I know what

00:42:42.180 this is like. Okay. When you get fat enough and you get, and you get pissed off enough,

00:42:46.840 you don't, you stop looking at yourself in the mirror. Okay. You won't look at your, I know

00:42:51.220 what this is like. Cause I did it for years. I'll call. I used to close my eyes when I brushed

00:42:56.280 my teeth. So I didn't have to look at myself in the mirror. Okay. That's how fucking disgusted

00:43:00.340 I used to be with myself. And if I could have taken that person and plugged a snapshot of what 0.98

00:43:08.360 my life would look like. If I just learned to control my own discipline and got a little bit

00:43:14.040 mentally tough to the point where I could adhere to the plans that I set out, because it's not that

00:43:19.280 we don't know what to do. It's that we lack the ability to do it. Every single person listening

00:43:24.960 to this podcast knows what the fuck they need to do to become a better version of themselves. 0.99

00:43:29.560 You need to eat better. You need to train. You need to put good shit in your brain. You need to 0.99

00:43:33.960 make sure that you're, you know, have a good productive mission in your life, a purpose in

00:43:40.380 your life. You got to have good relationships in your life. Like we all know these things. These are

00:43:44.720 these, we, we got to eat less than what the fuck we burn. You know what I'm saying? Like 0.99

00:43:49.100 we, we got to, everybody knows these are basic things. The problem is never the plan. The problem

00:43:55.320 is you can't stick to the plan. So if you can identify the problem, which you have, that needs

00:44:01.060 to be solved, which is your ability to adhere to anything that you set out to do. Now you become

00:44:07.080 an unstoppable weapon. Now you become someone who can achieve anything they set out to do.

00:44:11.640 And that's what the live hard program is about. It's about continuously fine tuning your mind

00:44:16.260 so that whatever plan you make outside of the realm of the program is achievable because

00:44:22.680 you can follow it. Okay. That's a fucking superpower. And if, if I could take that person who's afraid

00:44:30.700 to look in the mirror or doesn't go to the pool on the weekends and the summer, because they

00:44:36.200 don't want to take the shirt off or won't go on a beach vacation and always goes to the mountains

00:44:40.420 because they don't want to be in a swimming suit. And I could just plug a fucking one second 0.99

00:44:46.460 snapshot of what their life would look like if they fixed this one problem, their ability 0.98

00:44:52.340 to stick to things and see things through every single person that ever listened to this show, 0.98

00:44:59.740 listen to my words right now would, would do whatever the fuck it takes to become that person 0.98

00:45:04.740 that can adhere to the plan. And that's what the live hard programs about, bro. It's about becoming 0.98

00:45:09.540 someone who is a slave to the external and, and then making the external your slave. It's about 0.99

00:45:16.240 flipping that over and making it so that now instead of the environment controlling you, you are now in

00:45:21.720 control of your environment as much as possible. And when you become that person, the upside

00:45:26.460 potential is unlimited. And I think if we could take people and legitimately make them understand

00:45:32.620 that this is not something people are born with, this is not something people are gifted with.

00:45:37.420 This is something that people develop. Everybody would do 75 hard on day one on the first, you know,

00:45:43.940 we got Monday, next Monday is fucking January 1st, seven days. Yeah. Like, bro, you can drastically 0.98

00:45:49.780 change your entire life. And people fuck this program up thinking that it's a weight loss program

00:45:54.960 or a fitness challenge or some shit they do on TikTok. That's not the fuck it is, guys. 1.00

00:45:59.220 This is a mental sharpening program. And the people, why do you have to, if it works so 0.99

00:46:04.200 well, why do you do it over and over? Because bro, the same reason you take a fucking shower 1.00

00:46:07.480 every day, discipline and mental toughness is a perishable skillset. Just like Chad Wright 0.99

00:46:12.340 being on the show saying shooting a pistol is a perishable skill. Lifting weights is a perishable

00:46:17.740 skill. Anything that we consistently train and then stop training is going to reduce our skillset

00:46:24.960 in that area. You will regress. Yes. That's, that's reality. And we have to think of our

00:46:29.560 mentality and our discipline and our mental toughness the same way. And so intentional

00:46:33.300 suffering over the course of an extended period of time will help sharpen that. And you know,

00:46:38.020 it just so happens that we have a program for that. Um, and any trainer, any, any diet coach,

00:46:44.440 anybody can plug their shit into that framework and it could train someone's brain. But the point is 0.87

00:46:49.580 take care of that first, bro, because that's the source of your problems. The reason you're

00:46:54.640 fucking disgusted when you look in the mirror, the reason you avoid social situations, the reason 1.00

00:46:59.480 your bank account is shitty, the reason your car is shitty, the reason your house is shitty, 1.00

00:47:04.240 the reason you're in a shitty relationship comes down to one thing. You lack the discipline and the 1.00

00:47:10.020 ability to follow through on the plans that you set out. And if you fix that one problem,

00:47:14.760 your entire life will fucking change. And so if you're asking me what my number one thing is for 0.81

00:47:20.480 anybody going into the new year, fix that because once you fix the ability, uh, to adhere to, to any

00:47:27.460 plan, it doesn't matter what plan you set out. If you stick to it long enough, you're going to get

00:47:31.220 there. You want to be a billionaire. You can figure it the fuck out. You'll take the steps. You'll do the

00:47:35.120 thing. You'll, you'll do all the hard shit that everybody else quits, which I think is the biggest 0.99

00:47:39.640 key to success. People are like, how the fuck did you get here? Well, I don't know guys been doing it 25 1.00

00:47:44.100 years. This man's been doing it for 30 years. How'd you get here? I fucking got my ass beat for

00:47:48.780 30 years. And guess what? Now I woke up and I've done some things and that's how it fucking goes, 1.00

00:47:54.180 man. Like I still, I don't know how you feel, but I still feel like that fucking dude 20 years ago, 0.98

00:47:59.020 20, 25 years ago now that does no shit. And I'm learning new shit every day. I'm trying to get 0.99

00:48:04.540 better every day. You know, I have more gray hair. I probably know a little bit more, but you know,

00:48:09.180 the reality is, is I still feel like I got a lot to prove dude. Like a lot.

00:48:12.720 Because you're hungry and you want to stay constantly driving forward. That's what you

00:48:17.360 want to do. So if you're doing that, you, you can't be just content. Content is just

00:48:23.380 comfort kills, bro. It does. It kills everything. It destroys you because once that happens,

00:48:28.180 you're not going to stay level. You're going backwards because everyone's going to come 0.95

00:48:32.560 up and be able to eat you up from behind. It's just the competition will crush you.

00:48:37.400 Yeah. If you own a business, I don't care if you're a trainer, if you have a store,

00:48:41.400 any of those things, if you're not moving forward, you're moving backwards.

00:48:44.560 Yeah. You know, I like that too, bro. We talk about it every, this motherfucker has to talk

00:48:48.000 me into like not killing people every fucking day, bro. 1.00

00:48:50.580 Yeah. I know he does it when I don't. 1.00

00:48:51.880 Yeah.

00:48:53.240 Like I see all these young guys coming up, dude. And like, I see, and by the way,

00:48:57.600 all of you listening, cause you're all, these guys are all guys I like.

00:48:59.920 Yeah.

00:49:00.120 I'm proud of them. But at the same time, I'm like, I'm going to fucking kill you. Like, 1.00

00:49:05.100 dude, like it's, it's, it's like this competitive, like dude. And you know, I'll be honest with you,

00:49:09.960 man. One thing I am truly grateful for in our industry is all the motherfuckers that just go 1.00

00:49:17.620 hard as fuck. Like it inspires the fucking shit out of me. And dude, if it wasn't for those guys, 1.00

00:49:22.900 if it wasn't for all these dudes doing incredible shit, I'd, I'd go sit on the fucking bench and count 0.99

00:49:28.080 my fucking, my, my, my little pennies, you know what I'm saying? And drive cars and probably have 1.00

00:49:32.940 a lot of fun, but I have more fun doing this. And I like competing and I like being in the game

00:49:37.600 and like, dude, I'm really, it's really cool. Like, this is a different topic, but since you're

00:49:42.360 here, we'll talk about it. It's really cool to like be friends with so many people in our industry

00:49:48.140 that are doing big shit like that. That's that, that motivates me. Like, you know, and they hear, 0.97

00:49:53.160 they hear me talk like this and they're like, fuck dude, this dude will probably try to crush me, 0.99

00:49:57.100 but that's not true because actually the opposite is true because with my dude, I will fucking try 0.99

00:50:02.840 to help these guys to win because I understand if they win more that I will go harder. I've seen

00:50:07.580 you help people that turned around and try to fuck you bro. And that's most of the time. Yeah. And 0.99

00:50:12.160 that's, and that's, but that's okay. That's hard to see. But the middle Eastern portion of me

00:50:16.400 fucking wants to turn around and fucking cut their heads off because it does not, it's not cool 0.99

00:50:19.760 because there's a thing called loyalty and a lot of people need to understand when the people that are 1.00

00:50:24.640 loyal to you, you need to be loyal to them as you grow up together and you grow together. 0.73

00:50:28.600 And that's a whole different fucking episode, but it needs to happen. You guys need to be able to 0.91

00:50:34.120 understand those few and far between you. There might be just one motherfucker that's your fucking 1.00

00:50:39.540 ride and die, whether it's your woman, whether it's your family member, whether it's your fucking 1.00

00:50:43.500 business partner, there's going to be that one person and you got to show loyalty too, because if 1.00

00:50:47.780 you don't, what's going to happen is it's going to come back to you with fucking bad karma, 0.99

00:50:51.640 period. Well, I think, I think I don't think a lot of people understand how I'm wired in that way. 0.99

00:50:59.700 They don't get it. They think they either think I will try to like destroy them if they get close

00:51:05.340 to me, which I don't do, or they think that I'm stupid because I help them. That's exactly right. 0.98

00:51:11.280 You take the words right out of mouth. They think you're fucking stupid. I'm stupid because I tell 1.00

00:51:14.580 them all this shit. Right. And they, they start to think that I'm so like, I'm so naive that they're 1.00

00:51:19.120 getting something for me. That's right. When in reality, I'm hyper intelligent, bro. And I'm

00:51:23.300 intentionally giving you the fucking keys to the fast car so that I can get in my car and race you. 1.00

00:51:28.400 Okay. So like, no, cause you want to watch them wreck that car because they don't even know what 0.99

00:51:32.340 the fuck to do with it. If they act like an asshole for sure. Yeah. But if they're cool, 1.00

00:51:35.860 like one of my best friends, dude, is Alex Hermosey. Alex Hermosey is winning at a high level,

00:51:41.080 bro. Another one of my best friends at my let winning at a high level, honey, winning at a high level.

00:51:46.280 Every one of my friends is winning at a high level. And I fucking give them every bit of 0.98

00:51:51.560 information I can to win better because dude, it pushes me to go harder. And I think that's 0.98

00:51:56.740 something that's lost in business and competition. You know, there's like, if you're a true competitor,

00:52:03.620 like I don't ever doubt my ability to compete. Like I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm not afraid to

00:52:08.320 compete. PJ, do you know what that's like? That's like a fucking gladiator that walks up that knows

00:52:14.200 that they're a bad motherfucker and sees the gladiator next to them. And they're about to 1.00

00:52:18.420 fucking fight in the same match against each other. And the guy that goes over to grab a sword 0.99

00:52:23.020 and then the other guy, the more mature seasoned gladiator says, uh, don't use that one. Use the

00:52:28.360 one that one's got a weaker blade. Yeah. But it's real. It's not what I'm saying. That's what I'm

00:52:33.140 saying. It's not, it's not giving bad information because I want you to be able to fucking come your 0.98

00:52:37.640 best. Exactly. That's right. Because bro, I'm not a, I'm confident in my ability to compete 0.96

00:52:42.260 and I know how I'm wired. And I know that if somebody else gets better, I'm going to get

00:52:46.600 better. And like, bro, I think if we had that mentality a little bit more healthy, respecting

00:52:51.780 competition, but also, uh, you know, loyalty, right? Like if somebody's in trouble or they need

00:52:58.440 real help, you fucking help them. And, and I, I just see the, I see the whole game of competition, 0.98

00:53:03.300 even different than I did five, six, 10 years ago. Yeah. Your tone is changing four or five

00:53:07.880 years. I can, I can attest to that seven years ago, bro. I really did want to fucking murder

00:53:11.900 people. Like I'm like, I'll, I will burn your fucking house down, bro. Fuck with me. I'll burn 1.00

00:53:16.040 your shit down legitimately. And now it's, it's not like that anymore because what I've realized 1.00

00:53:21.120 is I need that push. I need that shit, bro. I need that competition. I need the other people 1.00

00:53:25.540 to be the best they can so that I'll be the best I can. And I think if we went into 24 with

00:53:31.020 a more collaborative attitude around competition, uh, I think, I think we'd all have a lot more

00:53:35.560 fun and be a lot better. Uh, guys, Andy, question number three, uh, Andy, what are some of the

00:53:40.800 core elements you think an employee should have to be the best entrepreneur at a company? I

00:53:46.260 understand the show is more entrepreneur based, but I have learned a lot as an employee. I've

00:53:51.500 been reading and researching on how to be a better leader. I would just like to get some

00:53:55.320 of your thoughts on what you are looking for in your employees to be the undeniable performer

00:54:00.640 and leader that you always talk about. Well, the skills of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship

00:54:06.140 are very similar. In fact, I think they're almost the exact same skills. Um, the risk tolerance

00:54:15.980 is somewhat different, uh, quite a bit different, but outside of that, um, the skills are the same

00:54:23.320 and, you know, mission first people, people who understand what the outcome that's working,

00:54:32.560 uh, that everyone is working towards. See, I, I, I, I, I, I use the analogy of a boat all

00:54:41.220 the time. Okay. And if we're in a boat and we've got five guys on one side and they're rowing,

00:54:48.540 right. And then we got five guys on the other side and they're rowing at a different pace,

00:54:52.040 or you have four guys on the other side and they're rowing at the right pace, but the fifth

00:54:56.380 guys rowing at the wrong pace, the boat will not go where you wanting to go. It will only

00:55:01.020 go in circles. That is the nature of, of business. And so mission first people, people who can

00:55:07.620 understand what is trying to be achieved and then figure out how to contribute to that the

00:55:13.240 best possible way, regardless of their skillset, regardless of what they're good at, if they could

00:55:20.300 take the initiative to find their lane in their place of contribution and contribute as much as

00:55:27.040 possible in that way, while also being a positive influence, uh, being example for everybody else,

00:55:33.060 being a positive cultural influence. That's a big one that doesn't get talked about a lot.

00:55:36.900 A lot of people don't understand how hard they fuck themselves by being a gossiper or a, 0.99

00:55:42.980 uh, uh, drama person in the office or someone who's disruptive because that fucks everybody. 0.99

00:55:49.520 Like people don't understand that. Like when you are a gossiper or a drama person inside of an

00:55:54.040 organization, whether it be a team or locker room or a company, you're creating a situation where

00:56:00.460 nobody can win. Okay. And that's the most selfish thing you can do because what happens is the people

00:56:05.520 at the leadership level and the people who are the most skilled level, they are now having to deal

00:56:10.920 with whatever you're creating, the ripples you're creating in the back of the boat, the holes you're

00:56:15.200 drilling in the back of the boat, as opposed to rowing the boat faster. Right. And so the energy

00:56:19.820 they're spending on this bullshit drama could be put into. Yeah. And this is why as a leader, dude, 0.99

00:56:25.580 when people gossip or their drama inside of your company, you have to fire them immediately because 0.98

00:56:29.800 they're cancerous. Um, but when it's, when you, when it comes to being a great entrepreneur,

00:56:35.660 everything I talk about here on this show, uh, everything, every single thing can be equated

00:56:42.060 to intrapreneurship from entrepreneurship. It's all the same skillset. And ultimately,

00:56:46.920 in my opinion, what it comes down to is understanding the outcome that is desired by the organization,

00:56:54.760 the team, the company, whatever the collective outcome that we're trying to get to understanding

00:57:01.140 that and then doing whatever they can to put that first and everything else. Second, great leaders

00:57:06.140 do this. Great leaders do not come in and say, I need to have all the ideas, or I need to call all

00:57:12.440 the shots, or I need to call every single player. I need to, every idea that we do has to be my,

00:57:17.600 that's, that's what weak leaders do. Weak leaders will always talk about themselves in terms of what

00:57:23.060 they did. They will say, I did this. Look what I did. I signed this person. I developed this product.

00:57:29.540 They will start naming shit after themselves and all this fucking ego driven bullshit, 1.00

00:57:33.440 as opposed to understanding what the outcome is and understanding that their role as a leader 1.00

00:57:40.020 is not to have the ideas. You're going to have some of the ideas. Okay. But your actual role is to

00:57:46.500 develop the people behind you and then decide what the best idea is that aligns with the outcome

00:57:53.540 desired for the collective. And if you're an employee, you should operate that same way.

00:57:58.840 How are my actions contributing to the overall mission that we have at hand? Am I contributing?

00:58:05.700 Am I taking away? Am I making it better? Am I making it worse? And it's a constant evaluation

00:58:10.240 cycle. And this is aside from basic skill sets, right? Like you should learn how to lead. You

00:58:16.100 should learn how to sell. You should learn how to communicate. You should learn how to take initiative

00:58:21.140 for things and, and, and own things and put them on your back and run them across the line without

00:58:26.600 being told. These are all things that you, that you have to learn, but culturally it's a mentality.

00:58:34.920 What are we trying to achieve as a team? And how can I contribute to that? The water boy at the

00:58:41.000 university of Alabama is a very valuable water boy. I can promise you that I can promise you that.

00:58:45.640 Okay. The people who cook the food for the athletes are extremely fucking valuable. Okay. The people who 0.96

00:58:53.200 come in after hours and fix all the equipment and set the locker up and get everybody's shit, 0.99

00:58:58.960 right. These people are all equally as valuable to the team and the outcome. Certain people might get 0.71

00:59:04.880 paid more because their skills are worthy of more pay because they're more rare. And the more rare

00:59:11.320 the skill, the more pay you're going to have. Okay. The more accumulation of skill, the more money

00:59:16.220 you're going to make in an organization. That's just reality. All right. If you can do the things

00:59:20.040 no one else can do, guess what? You're getting paid a lot more money, but that doesn't mean that you

00:59:25.120 can't contribute along the way while you develop these skills and just figuring out ways to contribute

00:59:29.980 and be valuable and put the team first and put the mission first is ultimately what will define, uh,

00:59:37.920 your worth inside of an organization. Because, you know, let's just say the equipment manager,

00:59:43.520 right? There's plenty of equipment managers that have gone on in collegiate football or even

00:59:48.200 professional football to be head coaches, right? But the reason that they got the shot to be the

00:59:53.880 head coach was because they did such a great job with the equipment that they were, someone said,

00:59:58.960 Hey man, you know what? You're not built for just equipment, dude. Here, let me come over here.

01:00:03.660 Let me start teaching you some shit. Okay. And what happens is, is you get yourself in a 1.00

01:00:07.640 position where the leadership and the people ahead of you and the people with true power to

01:00:13.500 progress your career, start to identify certain things. And the main certain thing that they

01:00:18.400 identify is that you give a fuck a whole lot. And, um, I love that analogy. What? The Alabama 1.00

01:00:25.380 analogy. Like if you ask that waterboard, what the mission is, they're going to say to win

01:00:28.560 the fucking Superbowl. That's right. Yeah. You asked. I don't know how Alabama's winning 1.00

01:00:32.020 the Superbowl, but I mean, no matter who that is, or the fucking person watering the 1.00

01:00:39.500 fucking field. Yeah. That's right. The point, the groundskeepers win the fucking 1.00

01:00:43.080 championship. That's right. That's right. Bro. When you go, when you see the St. 1.00

01:00:46.100 Louis Cardinals on opening day, okay. You know how like on opening day, they line the

01:00:52.140 players down the chalk lines. Okay. You're going to see St. Louis Cardinals, watch them

01:00:56.920 on opening day and then watch the team. They play the team. They play on opening day

01:01:00.760 will come out. Half of them won't have hats on. Half of them will have hats on half

01:01:05.500 will be in their, their warmups. Half of them will be in their uniforms. Watch how

01:01:09.460 the Cardinals operate. Every single person, every single person is wearing the exact

01:01:14.720 same thing, the exact same way, the exact same standard across the board. Doesn't

01:01:20.120 matter if they're the groundskeeper. Doesn't matter if they're the best player on

01:01:23.580 the team. Doesn't matter. They're all in unison. And the reason the St.

01:01:27.860 Louis Cardinals have been such a winning team, they've won more world titles than

01:01:31.580 any other team besides the New York Yankees as one of the smallest market

01:01:34.840 teams in major league baseball is because they have outstanding culture from the

01:01:39.620 top all the way down to the bottom. And they develop their own skillset and their

01:01:43.680 own standard throughout the organization. And I believe one of the reasons that

01:01:47.680 I've been able to, to, I think one of the biggest blessings I've had is, is the

01:01:52.780 ability to witness how they do things, which has helped us do what we do here.

01:01:57.680 But getting everybody in unison, everybody understanding that the person who, you

01:02:04.020 know, packs the boxes is, is equally as important as the person who's in the

01:02:08.820 boardroom making the decisions. Like these are all parts to a team. And if you're on

01:02:12.860 a team and you're an entrepreneur and you can understand that your role truly

01:02:16.700 matters. And if you do it excellent, it's going to open up more opportunities. And then

01:02:20.640 you're willing to take time to develop the skillsets that you need after those,

01:02:26.260 as you're doing those opportunities, meaning like personal development on your

01:02:30.180 personal time, getting better, learning things, investing in yourself. These are

01:02:34.900 the things that make up these success stories where I started at this place,

01:02:38.600 it's $8 an hour, and now I'm making a million bucks a year. These are the kind of

01:02:42.880 people that do those things. So, um, you know, that's, that's the gist of what I

01:02:47.700 think. What do you think? I think you hit it right on the head. I think a lot of

01:02:51.840 people want to just, they have the mentality of give it to me now, then I'll

01:02:57.860 work for it. Give me the raise and then I'll go ahead and show you that I'm going

01:03:02.960 to do it. No, do the work of the person above you. And then therefore it justifies

01:03:08.080 to me to pay you more and give you that promotion. It's not about just getting the

01:03:13.000 promotion and then doing it actually do it show and really be able to show the

01:03:18.000 team what you're able to do. Now we step back and we're going into the executive

01:03:22.560 meetings going, Hey, Jimmy and Bobby and Michelle, look at them. They're doing one,

01:03:28.140 you know, a level above their pay grade here. So when we're doing your review,

01:03:32.500 fuck yeah, we're going to give you a raise. Fuck yeah, you're going to get a 1.00

01:03:35.340 title change. Now you're going, you know, into a management position because you're 1.00

01:03:38.880 already proving it. Too many people right now want you to give them that title and

01:03:44.940 that shot without proving themselves. They don't understand the dynamic. They

01:03:49.740 don't, they don't look at it from the other side of the spectrum as an opera,

01:03:53.740 as a decision maker in a business or a team. Okay. They're looking at it from the

01:03:59.300 employee perspective. They, first of all, they all think that they can trick

01:04:02.820 someone who's been doing something for 20 something years into their fucking story 0.99

01:04:07.100 that you've heard 10,000 times. Okay. I've heard never heard this. I've heard 0.99

01:04:10.760 this a gazillion times. Do you know how many times I've heard that if I give you

01:04:15.200 this, you'll do X and then the person never did it. That was the first 15 years

01:04:20.080 of my business. Yours too. Okay. What, what you, what people fail to understand

01:04:25.540 is that your job as an employee or a part of an organization is to make yourself

01:04:33.160 invaluable to where then you can leverage your skillset against the ownership for

01:04:40.200 money. All right. This is how this works. It's very simple. Your job is to do the job

01:04:47.480 of the person ahead of you and do it better than them and be so skilled that the people

01:04:53.720 who are leading you, who make the decisions are become scared that you're going to leave.

01:04:58.360 That's right. Okay. And people get to that point really like a lot of people are like,

01:05:03.400 well, I'm going to fucking leave. Well, fucking go ahead, bro. You're not doing shit anyway. 0.99

01:05:06.700 Right. I don't give a fuck. Like, you know how many times people have said, I'm leaving. 0.99

01:05:10.440 It's all downhill from here. Okay. Well, fucking you're at fucking Jiffy Lube, bro. And we're

01:05:15.020 still here and we're, we're crushing. Okay. But the point is there is people who show that

01:05:23.020 they understand. And when those people show that they understand by taking on more and doing more

01:05:27.740 and taking initiative and becoming better on their own, what happens is, is people who have been in 0.87

01:05:32.440 business for a long fucking time, they recognize the rarity in that person. Okay. So then they look

01:05:39.560 at that person and they say, fuck Jimmy over here, bro. This guy's a fucking killer. Okay. If we don't 1.00

01:05:46.840 fucking move this guy up, he's going to fucking go somewhere else. And we're going to miss amazing 0.99

01:05:50.600 asset to the team. So we have to find a position for him for that next phase. And that's how the

01:05:55.980 conversation happens on the inside. But people aren't, uh, privy to that. They assume that it's

01:06:01.900 a, that what, what they assume that what the real conversation goes like this, Hey, Jimmy's killing

01:06:09.920 it, dude. I think we can, I think we can keep him on for like three more years at this extra workload.

01:06:14.040 And before he quits, bro, listen, dude, when you're late, when you're working on a winning team,

01:06:18.960 they don't think of it like that. Winning team are always, dude, I'm always searching for that

01:06:24.060 next fucking six star athlete, bro. I'm always looking for that next fucking player. I'm always 0.99

01:06:29.400 looking for that next fucking asset. Cause it's about the mission, bro. Listen, because it's rare. 1.00

01:06:34.560 It's those people. And then the other people that are working there are going to start seeing those

01:06:39.280 people that were threatening to leave because of whatever they left and then the company continues

01:06:44.100 to grow. So what's the common denominator is that those people didn't belong. But if you want to be

01:06:50.200 able to become an entrepreneur, what you do is you create so much value that you turn around and

01:06:55.680 create your own position. That's right. Because the owners are not saying maybe in a shitty company.

01:07:00.860 Okay. Maybe if you're in a shitty company, maybe there is a, like if you got, if you work for a 0.87

01:07:05.500 company and the owners leave it on Thursday, come back on Tuesday and they don't give a fuck, 0.98

01:07:10.140 they probably are going to try to take advantage of somebody like that. Okay. But if you're in a 0.99

01:07:14.560 company that's aggressively trying to grow and compete and trying to win and evolve and be more,

01:07:19.360 that's not how it's looked at how it's looked at is all right. Mitch over there is fucking crushing 0.98

01:07:26.060 it, dude. And like, dude, he's been at that same position for two years. And if we don't find a 0.99

01:07:31.140 position for this guy, he's not going to develop and we're going to end up losing them. Okay. So we got

01:07:35.140 to find a position where we can maximize his skillset and get him, his talents utilized properly,

01:07:40.840 which always comes with more responsibility and pay. Okay. So it's a misunderstanding of the dynamic

01:07:47.320 of how the conversation happens at the ownership and leadership level amongst employees. And it

01:07:53.600 usually is the misunderstanding because they, they lack the perspective of running an organization 1.00

01:07:58.320 or they listen to their fucking loser friends who are just saying shit to them like, Oh, all they're 1.00

01:08:03.300 doing is using you up and they're going to spit you out. And no one can. Yeah. That might be true 1.00

01:08:07.100 for a shitty company. It doesn't give a fuck. But when someone's trying to become the next 1.00

01:08:10.800 motherfucking Nike, I can assure you they're trying to collect like my biggest business is collecting 0.98

01:08:16.560 high skill people. That's my biggest fucking priority. Okay. And if you're not in an organization 1.00

01:08:22.180 like that, you should try to get in one because that's where you're going to be able to do the work

01:08:27.680 ahead of time and have some faith, prove yourself. And that's going to move you up the ladder.

01:08:32.440 And if you keep doing that, the progress never stops. Yeah. And you're going to level up faster

01:08:36.640 than anybody around you that are working at other companies because you're in an organization

01:08:41.020 that is aggressively trying to maintain or develop their talent. Yeah, for sure. And I think it just

01:08:48.160 comes from misunderstanding of the conversation of how it actually works. It is. It's a person just

01:08:52.300 really, well, dude, we live in a soft ass culture. Well, but it's also perspective. Hopefully most people 0.91

01:08:57.460 are listening to podcasts like this, that they can create perspective because they don't always

01:09:01.980 have access to these conversations. Yeah. Like literally it's not their fault. Yeah. Some of

01:09:06.220 them just don't say they don't have perspective. Right. So when you turn around and you say, Hey,

01:09:10.980 look, this is what an owner or a, let's say an executive thinks and how they think on how to level

01:09:17.580 their people up. They turn around and do it. That's why what I try to do is also say, Hey, look,

01:09:21.400 if you're going to go out of your way, I'll pay for added education. If you want to learn tools,

01:09:26.660 whether it's something on software related, I'll fucking pay for it. Yeah. If you want to go get 0.98

01:09:30.740 NASM certified, if you want to get this, I'll pay for it. Yeah. I'll do all those things because I

01:09:34.680 want to see you level up, but you got to be able to take an initiative. You can't say, Hey, by the way,

01:09:39.760 I want to be able to become the director of so-and-so. Well, what are you directing? Do you even know

01:09:45.220 how to direct? Do you know how to, you know, whatever it is. And then what you got to do is,

01:09:48.780 but if they're proving that they're already doing that role, it's much easier to put them

01:09:53.960 in that role, but they need to take the initiative and they need to understand perspective on both

01:09:59.060 sides, both ownership side, as well as the employee side. I also think too, that it's important to

01:10:04.940 recognize that if you are an entrepreneur and you are hungry to build a career and you are somebody

01:10:11.300 that wants to go out and become a high value or even an executive or whatever it is you want to do,

01:10:16.980 there's more opportunity to do that now than ever because the work ethic of most people is 1.00

01:10:23.020 shit. Yeah. Right. The bar has been brought down so low. You guys should all be leveling up. It's a 1.00

01:10:31.580 huge opportunity because there's a bunch, it's a lot of shitty people who don't have, especially 0.85

01:10:36.340 coming off of, you know, two or three years of people working from home. Yeah. Things, you know,

01:10:40.860 where there are people don't even want to go to the office. So what it's done is it's brought the

01:10:45.180 bar down so low that you have the ability to just hit gigantic strides right now because so many other

01:10:52.240 people are finding reasons to do shitty work, not going to work and just doing a low level job.

01:10:58.820 Yep. Totally agree, man. Love it, man. Well, guys, Andy, honey, that was three.

01:11:23.000 greatest, not bodybuilding coaches, but mental performance coaches that exist. I'm very grateful

01:11:34.960 the fucking world. You know, you Grover, Ed, like I got to start winning bigger, bro. You know what I'm 0.99
