show in the world that doesn't run ads i'm pretty sure we are but i'm just going to say probably
00:02:23.100
uh and we don't do that because we talk about the things that nobody really wants to talk about
00:02:28.780
all right so i don't want to answer to somebody telling me what i can and can't say
00:02:32.300
in exchange for that in exchange for not wasting 30 minutes of your time talking about shit that i don't

00:02:45.480
quite often traffic throttling shadow bans etc etc please help us grow the show if you find value in
00:02:53.940
the show if it makes you think that makes you laugh it gives you new perspective if it's good

00:03:32.420
why it takes me so long it's not good i give you hemorrhoids yeah well i have those yeah well that's
00:03:37.060
probably why well they're minor genetic what genetic hemorrhoids that's the thing i don't know about
00:03:44.760
that no it's from you sitting on the toilet for an hour every fucking time you go over there no it's
00:03:50.020
genetic yeah it's probably the same genetics that everybody else has when they sit on the toilet
00:03:55.380
for an hour yeah are you looking it up it is genetic see can it be genetic yes okay because
00:04:03.900

00:04:35.560
better guys we already learned that hemorrhoids can be genetic can be genetic we're already off to
00:04:39.940
a great start this week so i'm saying all right now you don't know now you know now you know uh well
00:04:45.560
let's get into these questions but i got three good ones for you man all right man um guys andy
00:04:49.260
question number one hi andy all right i love when they like it's just always a nice salutation
00:04:56.240
hi andy um i really appreciate everything you do 75 hard was a game changer for me moving uh moving
00:05:03.700
me through a company to now running my own business i'm 30 and i resonate with your intense operating
00:05:09.740
style i'm aggressive and always pushing to move forward my business partner who is 20 years older
00:05:15.980
operate to the slower pace uh more patient and methodical uh while we're fully aligned on the
00:05:22.860
direction and goals of the business sometimes the lack of urgency frustrates me i understand and
00:05:29.380
respect his approach and i know it's what makes us work well together but i'm curious if you face
00:05:34.920
something similar with chris has he ever operated at a different pace than you uh how do you maintain
00:05:41.120
alignment without losing momentum i'd love to hear your advice on managing this dynamic
00:05:45.800
without sabotaging a successful partnership well look everybody naturally runs at a different pace
00:05:54.120
okay um and the truth of the matter is it's actually probably a really good thing that your partner is a
00:06:00.600
little more mature and a little more patient and uh moves at a little slower pace because when you are
00:06:06.280
an intense operator um you sort of need someone to counteract that and balance that out because that can be a
00:06:12.680
lot for people to handle it's like drinking from a fire hydrant okay uh most people aren't built to
00:06:18.760
handle that level of intensity and so it's good to have someone who has sort of gone down the road who
00:06:26.680
you know may have a little bit more experience who understands that the things that you might get
00:06:31.480
intense about don't really require that level of intensity because some of the time when we put too
00:06:36.600
much intensity on tasks that don't require that level of intensity you can actually end up with a
00:06:43.240
lesser result uh because it adds undue pressure to people that don't need to feel that pressure in
00:06:48.360
the moment so that's a hard discipline to learn especially if you run naturally hot uh i i run
00:06:55.160
naturally hot like i'm always intense you know one of the most common things that people ask people
00:07:00.680
that know me in person they say always is he really like that in real life and the answer is
00:07:05.880
yes i am like that um and that's that can be too much for people but that serves as uh a good litmus
00:07:13.160
test like if it's too much for you this is probably not a good place for you to work if you jive with
00:07:18.600
it you're going to respect and you're going to love it because you know it's pulling everybody down the
00:07:22.760
fucking tracks okay so there's good and there's bad and as you mature you're going to learn when to apply
00:07:30.600
it and when not to apply it urgency is one of the most important aspects of anybody's outcome
00:07:38.760
because most people will tell you oh take it easy oh you're working too hard oh you're taking this too
00:07:46.440
serious but those people never become great at anything they never produce anything they never
00:07:51.800
become anything they never contribute to anything and they end up in the same spot that they're at
00:07:56.920
at 45 or 55 that they were at when they were 25 all right and i'm here to tell you that life doesn't
00:08:02.280
end at 25 it's just starting so having good intensity having urgency is a massive massive massive
00:08:09.960
advantage and and i'm going to say this i would much rather have way too much than way too little
00:08:16.760
okay so i'm going to say that now i'm going to say something else as far as my experience okay chris is
00:08:24.680
not the only person that i've dealt with as a business partner i've got my brother i've got jason
00:08:30.680
i've got these other guys who are all part of this big conglomerate of companies that we own they're all
00:08:37.320
different okay and i would say i'm the most intense however those guys all run at different paces and
00:08:43.640
it's good because they can decipher what i'm saying like there's a lot of times when i say
00:08:48.840
do this that this this this and it's so intense and so hot that the team doesn't necessarily
00:08:57.640
understand it so it requires one of those guys to translate it you see what i'm saying so this is
00:09:03.880
why you know i only talk to i'm chairman of the of first form i'm not even the ceo anymore haven't
00:09:09.640
been for a couple years i talked to sal i talked to chris about the companies that he runs i talked to
00:09:16.760
jason and that's all the that's who i talked to okay because everybody else can't handle it all
00:09:22.760
right um yeah you know when i talk to you guys and i mean you guys know i get fucking pissed i get
00:09:28.600
hot i get urgent i want to win now i don't want to win yesterday i want to win today i don't want
00:09:33.400
to win in two weeks i want to win today i don't want to win in another fucking year i want to win
00:09:37.320
today and that's a lot of urgency compared to what most places are like so the fact that you have a
00:09:44.200
business partner that is a little older been down the path has a little bit more patience is probably
00:09:51.000
a really great thing for your culture and you just have to learn that you're the pace setter
00:09:55.880
and that person is you know sort of like not an anchor but just a little bit of a parachute to kind
00:10:02.280
of slow you down so you don't burn burn everybody out does that make sense makes perfect sense i also
00:10:06.680
think of it like too like i mean when you're moving so fast if you don't have at least another set of
00:10:11.080
eyes looking at shit shit gets missed 100 especially when you're urgent especially when
00:10:16.520
you run hot like there'll be a number of times where i'll say dude we gotta do this and you know
00:10:21.880
one of the guys sal jason chris they'll say well what about this and this and this right and i'm
00:10:27.320
like oh i didn't even think of that okay well what we'll do this and then we come through and connect
00:10:33.080
that we all know it needs to be done right now but we don't make mistakes because they're able to
00:10:37.720
slow it down a little bit and think it through instead of just like jumping in right see i come
00:10:42.680
from a place where you know all the companies i founded we started with nothing we don't we don't
00:10:48.040
owe banks money and we don't owe people money nobody gave me fucking money so i had to win i had to
00:10:53.560
survive and that breeds a different kind of fucking intensity when you have to okay when you don't have
00:11:00.840
any other options when your back is against the wall when you if you don't execute today you ain't
00:11:06.680
eating this weekend that is a lot of pressure dude and that pressure was on me for so long 11
00:11:12.440
years actually that it's it's become part of who i am um and i hope it never changes because i feel
00:11:19.240
like when people change that about themselves that's when things start changing in their lives
00:11:23.000
and while it may not be everybody's cup of tea i enjoy it and every other time i've tried to like
00:11:27.400
be more calm and be less urgent and you know accommodate other people i've gone insane it
00:11:33.400
fucking drives me insane i cannot be around people who are not intense and urgent about winning it
00:11:39.960
drives me fucking crazy the number one thing that bothers me is when i look at someone and i'm like
00:11:45.880
bro do you even fucking want to win like do you even want to win like when i can't tell if someone wants
00:11:51.800
to win dude it drives me insane you know what i mean so we got to have the balances out and um it's not
00:11:58.680
bad to be intense in fact i think you know it's a great it's a great place to be if you're setting
00:12:03.720
the pace for your company because dude business moves fucking fast and all these people out here
00:12:07.800
on the internet that tell you to calm down and relax and take it easy and you know you're going too hard
00:12:14.360
and this that and the other bro those people are going to be in the same spot that they've always
00:12:18.600
fucking been all right you may not know that because you're young but i'm telling you everybody who ever
00:12:23.080
said that to me they are where they are they are where they were when they said it and and that's
00:12:28.760
that's just the truth man yeah there's a lot here but i love this question i want to ask you this too
00:12:34.680
i mean because you know you talk about you times that you've tried to change your own personal pace
00:12:39.240
whether that be from you know external advice from whoever right so do you is it also say and you said
00:12:46.600
that never really worked out is it also safe to i guess assume like you shouldn't try to change
00:12:50.200
somebody else's pace like they have to be willing to change their own pace whether that's speeding
00:12:53.880
it up or slowing it down like you should not be trying to make somebody else change their pace
00:12:59.640
that they're moving that i think it depends on if it's working or not yeah you know um i got some
00:13:04.200
advice you know when when i already had i was already a wealthy person i was already a great speaker i was
00:13:11.640
already great at the things that i was doing uh to tone it down from someone that i actually respect
00:13:17.320
and uh i try to tone it down it up my whole game up my business up my ability to talk up
00:13:24.120
up everything about my about it about me because it isn't me and i think the main thing is to be
00:13:29.320
authentic to who you are that's what it comes down to like you you're not crazy you're not broken you're
00:13:36.920
not you know something that needs to be fixed just because you're not like everybody else right maybe
00:13:44.200
you're not like everybody else because you have a gift that they don't have so that's something to
00:13:48.680
consider as well and i found that to be the case more than not when it comes to listening to critiques
00:13:54.760
or judgment or advice from other people okay i'm me you're the recipe is the recipe and it is what it
00:14:03.160
is if you don't like the way it tastes don't eat it you know what i'm saying you bought the ingredients
00:14:07.560
yeah right you got here yeah i love that man i think to the other point though too like even for
00:14:13.080
people who are not as outgoing you know like be authentic in that sense like you shouldn't try to
00:14:17.480
like be more you can't start cussing and thinking yeah i'm thinking dude dude and we see that all the
00:14:22.200
time bro we see these kids especially men on the internet who are you know they state they want to be
00:14:28.760
more masculine so they go find this who they think is an alpha male and all of a sudden they go from
00:14:34.920
being a well-mannered well-spoken uh you know person to like screaming and curt like dude that
00:14:43.640
that is that is not masculine man just because someone has the trait of being loud or cursing or
00:14:49.960
it sounds this or that that's not that that's that's not authentic to you it's authentic to them
00:14:55.320
most likely yeah so what's authentic to you right what do you feel the best at and by the way doing
00:15:01.720
nothing and being nothing and saying nothing doesn't count so what do you feel the best when
00:15:08.040
you are executing not when you're not doing anything because everybody's going to say well
00:15:11.720
i feel the best when i'm sitting on my couch watching netflix right no i'm saying when you go
00:15:16.840
out in the world and when you execute what is your natural style and how does that produce results
00:15:23.640
and if that's something that produces results and they produce results well it probably doesn't need to
00:15:28.680
be messed with if it's something that you know doesn't then you can look to change and find your
00:15:34.440
authentic self most people most people don't feel adequate dude so they think their authentic self
00:15:41.320
isn't good enough right they think that their authentic self is uh too boring or too plain but
00:15:47.400
what they miss is that everybody else is trying to be something they're not so when you're authentic
00:15:52.200
people can feel it they can they can smell it they can hear it they can see it and whatever that is
00:15:56.920
is it's way more appealing even if it's boring than to someone who's manufacturing a personality
00:16:02.040
so your authentic self is your competitive advantage if you're willing to truly live that way i love it
00:16:08.920
man i love it guys uh andy question number two andy how did you know that your product or service
00:16:17.800
was the one when you opened your first business um i know i want to start a business and go through the
00:16:24.600
hardship of creating a lasting legacy in my area but i'm unsure of knowing if my product or service
00:16:31.720
will solve a problem uh a big enough problem or even be profitable enough to scale it any advice on
00:16:37.960
this would be greatly appreciated thank you andy and uh for all you do yeah make a decision about what
00:16:42.920
you're going to sell dude what are you selling okay i didn't end up in the supplement industry
00:16:47.080
intentionally you guys don't understand that i started i wanted to open a tanning salon okay chris and
00:16:53.240
i were going to open a tanning salon we were going to be for the suntan boys is this legit yes we
00:16:59.160
couldn't afford to buy suntan beds because they were like 50 grand so we ended up selling vitamins
00:17:05.960
all right so the truth of the matter is is that it doesn't matter you need to make a decision you need
00:17:11.720
to start something and the skills that you learn along the way will actually help you adjust course as
00:17:17.560
to what your offering will be so most people will sit in this place that this person is in
00:17:23.800
and never make a decision so i don't know what to sell should i sell books should i sell computers
00:17:29.400
should i sell snow cones should i sell ice cream should i open a pizza place should i uh you know
00:17:36.040
sell uh bikinis like people will just throw around all these ideas well let me tell you something dude
00:17:42.280
ideas ain't worth fucking shit execution's where it's at so it doesn't matter if you're selling
00:17:47.240
ice cream or bikinis or fucking you know whatever dude what matters is that you go do it and if you
00:17:54.040
start to sell shit and it doesn't seem to work now you've at least learned how to set up a website how
00:17:58.760
to set up a marketing funnel how to set how to fulfill product etc etc etc etc and then you could switch
00:18:04.200
the product into something else what's never been easier to do that than it is now so whatever it is
00:18:10.760
that you think you want to do whatever it is you have a propensity to enjoy and be into it's
00:18:17.480
probably a good place to start i wouldn't start with something that you're completely not interested
00:18:22.600
in because there is an aspect of passion that is required and a lot of people don't understand why
00:18:29.000
they think that passion's required so that you never have to work a day in your life because i'm
00:18:34.440
just so passionate that's not true okay there are going to be days no matter how much you love
00:18:40.360
something that you fucking hate doing it that's the reality okay but what is it that you are into
00:18:47.160
right now what do you like to do back then i like to work out i was an athlete i like to lift weights
00:18:54.520
and be jacked and tan shit okay supplements were always they were always in my in my uh zone of
00:19:00.680
interest yeah and uh and we start there right so so like a lot of people like well you know
00:19:08.920
i'm not really interested in anything well what do you look at online do you look at puppies do you
00:19:13.880
look at butterflies what do you what do you look at you could be the butterfly bandit okay you could
00:19:18.760
start up a page on pinterest with all kinds of butterfly shirts and blankets and pins and pendants and this
00:19:26.680
and this and this and dude there's enough people out there that like butterflies that you could
00:19:30.760
fucking make a business out of it okay the point is pick something all right and the reason that you
00:19:36.600
should pick something that you're interested in is because there's a high likelihood that there is
00:19:40.840
going to be a time from when you start to when you make good money that you struggle okay and what's
00:19:46.680
going to keep you interested in executing during that time it's going to be your natural interest in
00:19:53.000
the thing that you are offering all right so for me you know uh i didn't get a paycheck for the
00:20:00.200
first three years i was in business now we didn't have the internet like you guys have it all right
00:20:05.960
so what kept me going for three years well i still trained and i still took supplements and
00:20:11.000
i was still interested in it and so during that three years where i made no money at all none
00:20:17.480
i learned more and i got better and i learned more about nutrition i learned more about
00:20:21.800
supplementation i learned more about weight training it gave me an excuse to even dive deeper
00:20:25.960
into something i was already into and already passionate about which then eventually made
00:20:30.360
me an expert after you know a decade of doing that but if you pick something that you have no
00:20:37.000
interest in and no passion for you start and then during that time where there's no payment coming
00:20:43.000
in and it's hard like that three-year window for me you're going to get so frustrated that you're
00:20:48.200
going to change into something else and if you do that too fast you're not giving the idea or the
00:20:53.800
plan enough time to materialize which is going to short circuit your success anyway because every time
00:20:58.840
it gets hard you're going to do something new and it's like starting a marathon over at mile seven
00:21:04.280
every time you try to run a marathon you're never going to get there so uh you know what are you
00:21:09.480
interested in what are you passionate about what's something that you would do for free and how can you
00:21:15.480
make a business out of it those are some questions that i would ask outside of that it doesn't really
00:21:21.000
matter as long as you fucking start and you can make adjustments as you go i love it man i love it
00:21:25.720
guys andy our third and final question uh andy question number three andy i've started this email a
00:21:34.920
couple of times but kept deleting it i can almost hear you saying quit being a bitch overall it's been a
00:21:43.240
great year my wife and i welcomed our first child in january i'm on month 10 of staying alcohol free
00:21:49.880
down 30 pounds and sticking to my diet workouts and jujitsu training i'm also keeping up with my goal
00:21:56.840
of reading 10 pages a day but the past couple of weeks have been tough i feel like i'm stuck in a rut
00:22:03.000
every week feels like i'm on repeat same work challenges same workout same routine what do you do
00:22:10.360
when you hit a rut any advice on breaking out of it thanks for any insight well first of all i mean
00:22:16.840
congratulations 10 months alcohol free down 30 pounds your first kid sounds like you had a great
00:22:22.200
fucking year it sounds like you're doing awesome um now on to the rut you're not in a rut that's just
00:22:27.960
the way shit is okay when you do the same thing day in and day out day in and day out day in and day
00:22:32.600
out day in and day out it gets mundane it gets boring this is why most people quit this is why most
00:22:38.120
people can't be successful because they cannot master the mundane nature of becoming successful
00:22:45.560
it is about day in and day out execution and a lot of those days are going to look the exact same
00:22:51.000
so when you think that you know you're in a rut what you really are is you're in a place where
00:22:57.880
most other people quit because it's boring and so you have to understand that mastering these boring
00:23:03.560
days is the part that nobody else can do because they feel the same way you feel now even though
00:23:09.240
you're winning even though you're doing great you are sitting there saying fuck this is boring this
00:23:14.600
sucks i don't know i don't what else do you want what else do you want bro you do know the answer to
00:23:20.040
your own question you need to quit being a fucking bitch all right that's the reality and by the way
00:23:25.960
there's an entire podcast on this that i did if you want to check out that episode it's episode 240 on
00:23:31.800
the mfceo project that is behind the real af feed if you scroll all the way down you'll hit mfceo feed
00:23:39.800
and when you hit that go to episode 240 and you'll listen because that is the nature of winning the
00:23:46.200
nature of winning is doing the exact same things at a very high level day in and day out day in and day
00:23:53.400
out day in and day out and when it gets boring and when it gets mundane that's when everybody else
00:23:58.120
fucking quits and if you can master that process you're going to be infinitely successful because
00:24:02.760
most people cannot continue to go once it's not exciting anymore and by the way dude it's not
00:24:08.680
going to be exciting forever just like you know any area of your life fitness is not going to be exciting
00:24:13.880
you're not going to feel like working out every day uh just like your relationship it's not always
00:24:18.360
going to be the most exciting shit in the world okay but the successful ones the people who are
00:24:24.040
successful in business successful training successful in life and relationships friendships
00:24:29.800
they understand that these mundane times are the times that count the most but dude at the end of the
00:24:38.280
day dude you know we have to realize that we have to look for opportunities when everybody else is going
00:24:43.640
to quit that we can continue to go and that's one of them let me let me because i feel like we
00:24:48.440
me and you have had a conversation about this and this was a couple of years ago um and you you said
00:24:54.200
something that just made just made sense uh and you you were talking about like you know i think you
00:25:01.560
put it in terms of like your planting season harvest season it's like you know the the shit that you're
00:25:06.120
doing today is not for you to you know reap in a week or two weeks it's five years down the road the
00:25:12.600
work that you're putting in today yeah that's right i think sometimes like that that is the like
00:25:16.760
misconnection a lot of people get stuck in because they fail to remember like you're not doing this
00:25:21.240
for tomorrow you're doing this for you five years from that's right you know i'm saying can we just
00:25:25.080
dive into that a little bit man because i feel like that's such a an important piece there you
00:25:29.400
know which part i mean putting in the work and knowing what it's going to well most people don't
00:25:34.440
know what it's going to because they've never experienced harvesting the results of their work
00:25:38.520
because they've never done the work hard enough so how do you train someone to understand that
00:25:42.760
what they're doing now is going to pay off later if they never stuck to anything long enough to see a
00:25:46.360
payoff it's a very hard concept for them to understand that's why you have to train them
00:25:51.160
and tell them and coach them and you'd say hey bro as long as you keep going it's going to pay off as
00:25:56.120
long as you keep going it's going to pay off and it's going to take way longer than you think to
00:25:59.640
start paying off all right there's a story i talk about it all the time about the chinese bamboo tree
00:26:05.000
okay you go out you plant this motherfucker in the ground and it has to be undisturbed for five years
00:26:11.560
years okay and if you go out and you dig it up and check on it guess what it doesn't grow if you go
00:26:17.000
out there and plow over the soil guess what it doesn't grow if you forget that it's there and uh
00:26:22.280
you you build something on top guess what it doesn't grow so you have to make sure it's undisturbed you
00:26:27.240
have to make sure it gets water and you have to make sure it's it's you know cultivated properly
00:26:32.280
and then after five years it grows to 60 to 80 feet in eight weeks okay that's what your success
00:26:39.720
is going to be like it's going to be like that you are going to work you're going to work you're going
00:26:44.920
to work and then you're going to see a little bit of progress and that's going to cause you to believe
00:26:49.160
a little bit you're like oh shit all right this is actually starting to work and then you're going to
00:26:53.400
work some more work some more work some more and then it's going to get even more results for what
00:26:58.760
the work you put in you're going to say oh this is actually working and then eventually you start
00:27:03.080
to realize exactly how it works you don't doubt it anymore so now like for me i've been doing this a
00:27:08.680
long time i know exactly what to expect but someone who's 20 that's never harvested they don't know what
00:27:14.920
to expect so most of the time they quit because they think that whatever work they're doing isn't
00:27:20.760
going to pay off when in reality dude uh it's going to pay off but it's just going to take a lot
00:27:27.160
longer than you expected it to take and this is a problem that we have with social media and all
00:27:31.960
these things right now because everybody's promising the quick easy fast overnight way when in reality
00:27:36.680
that's not how it works it just doesn't it just doesn't work that way so yeah um i think the the
00:27:44.200
instant gratification kills a lot of that for sure yeah yeah it's and it's a total lie look man the more
00:27:50.120
you could delay gratification the bigger the winning is on the back end that's the truth yeah um do you
00:27:55.000
do you think let me ask you this do you think that this just like occurred to me do you think
00:27:59.400
that like the reason instant gratification works so well negatively obviously but it works so well
00:28:05.320
on so many people is because the the opposite of instant gratification in the negative sense like
00:28:09.960
you know whether bad shit happened you know those things tend to happen so quickly or so people think
00:28:15.400
but even like negative shit just happened in your life like how quick stuff can go wrong and go bad
00:28:21.560
they assume then good shit must also occur as quick or as fast as the bad shit must happen
00:28:29.080
i don't know it's possible i guess people could think that i just i don't know i'm so far removed
00:28:33.160
from that thinking i can't remember what i thought whenever i didn't know what i know
00:28:36.920
yeah you know what i'm saying like i know how this works it's not i'm not i'm not guessing i'm not
00:28:42.440
philosophizing like i'm you look around at my life like look at my life bro i can't point my camera
00:28:48.120
anywhere ever and it not look like i'm bragging okay and that comes from me doing shit when there
00:28:56.440
was nothing to show for the results and doing that for a long long time showing up every day
00:29:01.080
doing what the i thought was the right thing was it always the right thing no but i learned it wasn't
00:29:06.920
and i adjusted course and i kept showing up and i kept showing up and i kept showing up you know
00:29:11.960
people made fun of me i kept showing up girls left me kept showing up people gave up on me kept
00:29:18.120
showing up people told me i was kept showing up and and doing what i need to do and eventually it
00:29:24.440
materializes and i i don't think i know because i'm me that i don't have special skill sets that y'all
00:29:32.280
don't have the only special skill sets i have come as the result of me showing up and getting my ass kicked
00:29:39.160
for way longer than anybody else is willing to do okay because there's a couple things about me
00:29:43.960
that i do have one i'm not a pussy i have a lot of courage i don't give a fuck okay uh and number
00:29:50.360
two i'm tough i'll take a beating all day over and over and over you gotta kill kill me to stop me
00:29:55.720
okay so you got those two things bro you're going to be in a good spot and and i'm telling you a lot
00:30:00.600
of you guys are smarter than me you have more gifts than me you have uh more intelligence than me
00:30:06.440
and if you could just hone that in and understand the game you're going to be super successful uh
00:30:12.680
and the game is very simple you got to keep showing up long after you lose interest and uh and executing
00:30:18.520
at a high level and eventually things materialize and and you know this is why we talk about the work
00:30:24.200
coming before the belief you know people say oh you got to believe in the beginning no you don't
00:30:30.360
you don't have to believe in the beginning at all what you have to be willing to do is trust
00:30:34.840
and have faith that the work that you are doing is going to produce a result all right and so you
00:30:40.360
show up you do the work you go home and nothing's happened you show up you do the work you go home
00:30:46.840
nothing's happened you do that for a long time and eventually something happens and you're like oh
00:30:52.360
and then you repeat that cycle and something more happens and you're like oh and then all of a sudden
00:30:57.000
you're producing some real results and you're like oh this is how this works and there's no doubt
00:31:01.320
anymore so so like if you could just get to a point where you can remove that doubt it's no
00:31:06.200
different than someone who has to lose 100 pounds in the gym dude they show up on the first day and
00:31:11.320
they're like fuck i work i worked my ass off today you're sweating you know they can't breathe the
00:31:16.440
next day they're sore as fuck they show up they're sweating they can't breathe they look the same you know
00:31:22.520
they do that for three or four weeks they still look the same and they're like fuck this isn't working
00:31:27.160
and someone puts their arm around them and tells them the truth it says hey motherfucker it takes
00:31:31.400
five six seven weeks to even get this going because you've been a fat fuck for a long time
00:31:35.720
and it's going to take some time past what you think it's going to take to start seeing results
00:31:40.440
so stick it out and once we get over that hump it's going to start accelerating tremendously just
00:31:44.680
give it another few weeks the dude sticks it out the lady sticks it out all of a sudden they're down
00:31:49.640
30 pounds and they're like holy shit this works and then they keep going and they transform
00:31:54.680
them lies but but like dude that doesn't happen enough because most people will just quit too soon
00:32:00.040
most people quit too soon on everything that's what it comes down to their life their marriage
00:32:04.360
the relationship their friendship and their business and their fitness they quit on everything
00:32:08.440
way too soon it just takes time i love it i love it man guys andy let's go get a monday in man
