00:08:04.300
right now all right let's get better man guys andy question number one uh andy i'm a 25 year old
00:08:12.700
business owner just getting started uh and i have a lot of people wanting to give me advice and help me
00:08:18.880
in any way possible from friends to family to business owners a popular topic always gets brought up
00:08:25.800
and it's this stay as small as you can for as long as you can i listen to what they have to say
00:08:32.220
but i don't agree with that statement at all my goals are much larger than to stay small forever i want
00:08:40.440
to grow expand and employ people because i believe in myself to take this time and make it really
00:08:45.900
successful for not only me but other people who want a career in this sector that statement lingers in
00:08:51.660
my head over and over a few close friends of mine have said it the bigger you are the more headaches
00:08:56.760
what's your thoughts on all of this how do you what what is the proper advice here the proper thing to
00:09:02.640
do is to never listen to anybody who hasn't done what the fuck you want to do okay you guys mess
00:09:08.020
yourselves up because you go out and you ask everybody who's never been there who's never created
00:09:13.800
anything who's never built anything and you ask them what they think what the fuck do you think
00:09:18.940
they're gonna say they have no idea that's like asking someone the best place to eat in china
00:09:23.860
that's never been to fucking china bro they don't know so you have to start qualifying who you're
00:09:29.920
asking advice from if they don't live the life that you want to live don't listen to what they have to say
00:09:36.800
if you do listen to what they have to say and you take it to heart and you go to do your thing or
00:09:42.980
create or build your business around what somebody who's never built a business has to say whether that be
00:09:48.920
your mom your dad your brother your cousins your aunts your uncles all these motherfuckers come out of
00:09:54.340
the woodwork like they've done this shit and they haven't okay and if you listen to them you will be
00:10:00.200
like them all right that is it so why are you listening to people who have never done the thing
00:10:06.820
it is you want to do why would you do that it's literally it makes you stupid as fuck okay that means
00:10:13.120
you're stupid secondly i think you're missing understanding what people are saying okay i don't
00:10:21.060
think they're saying to you and maybe they are because maybe your friends and family are just that
00:10:26.420
fucking dumb but i don't think they're saying to you stay small forever i think what they're saying to
00:10:32.140
you is and this is what i would say to you is to keep your lifestyle small keep your bill small
00:10:39.280
stay agile and be able to pivot quickly a biggest the biggest advantage that you're going to have
00:10:48.000
as a small business is your ability to pivot and make moves quick when you're competing against bigger
00:10:53.400
companies bigger companies when they try to pivot and make moves and change things that's like turning
00:10:59.000
around a fucking cruise ship in the middle of the ocean okay it takes a minute for you it's like a jet
00:11:05.200
ski you can just fucking turn and that's where you're able that's your advantage is a smaller
00:11:09.940
business you don't have the employees you don't have the experience you don't have the knowledge
00:11:14.300
but you're agile and you're quick and you're able to make adjustments fast which allows you to pay
00:11:21.580
attention to what bigger companies are doing see them start to make the adjustment you pivot right
00:11:26.660
away and you actually beat them to it okay so this fluidity and agility is a massive advantage for
00:11:33.660
someone who's running a smaller company against people who are running bigger companies and that's
00:11:38.580
something to think about okay that's a good advantage for staying small but to your point you're not
00:11:44.560
going to always be small you're going to want to employ people you're going to want to grow business and
00:11:48.840
you know to make a lot of fucking money bro you got to have a pretty big fucking business that's
00:11:53.380
reality so i'm assuming that the reason that you're in this is because you want to be financially
00:11:58.700
successful and you're right you're going to need employees and you're going to need
00:12:02.540
um to scale and you're going to need to grow and you're going to need you know line extensions of
00:12:07.940
your products and all these different things integrations those things will come but as they
00:12:14.060
come you should always try to maintain the agility and the ability to pivot of a small company okay
00:12:21.000
one of the best things about the companies that i'm involved in is that we don't do corporate
00:12:27.920
hierarchy bullshit okay we work really hard and some of it you can't avoid because you're going
00:12:33.840
to have to have systems you're going to have to have uh you know procedures and but the more of
00:12:38.780
that shit that you have the less agility you have which means the slower it is for you to move
00:12:43.800
so and this is like the government this is why the government sucks all right they have the
00:12:48.020
that's a whole nother problem we'll talk about that tomorrow but the point is is that becoming a
00:12:55.000
bigger company and maintaining the idea of small agile quick to pivot is really the success recipe
00:13:03.080
that you need to have so that's what i would say to that keep your bills small keep your lifestyle
00:13:08.060
small as long as possible okay and i did that like bro like people who become successful dude they
00:13:16.520
they don't just like make their first million bucks and go out and buy a fucking house or a car or this
00:13:22.520
or that they reinvest that and they roll it over again and again and again and again and again
00:13:26.980
and eventually they're they're buying cars like like other people are buying fucking candy at the
00:13:32.560
grocery store like they don't give a fuck okay and that's where you want to be you want to be to the
00:13:37.120
point where you're not having to really uh pay attention to your lifestyle because your business is so
00:13:43.060
big so um i think that's the advice i would give you but the biggest advice of this whole question
00:13:50.600
is don't listen to fucking people who haven't done what you want to do don't listen to them don't
00:13:57.460
listen to them for a second if you have a very good friend or maybe you have a dad or a mom or an
00:14:04.300
uncle who has some business experience uh or maybe they don't have any and and they're just like hey
00:14:10.520
look i don't know much about this but i'll support you anyway here's what i learned i read this and maybe
00:14:16.100
you think about that that's shit you can listen to that's cool yes because they're making an effort
00:14:21.400
to try to help i had a lot of people in my life coming up who you know always gave me advice
00:14:29.880
and and dude because i didn't know like i didn't know i would take it but they didn't know either
00:14:36.180
and so i spent all this time making all these mistakes based upon what other people thought
00:14:41.660
that had no idea so why the fuck would i listen to what they thought when i should just be listening
00:14:46.160
or trying what i i'm more qualified than them i'm in the game they're not in the game you see what i'm
00:14:52.040
saying and as a young entrepreneur you know what do you say 25 25 yeah dude we've got to get to the
00:14:58.380
point where we are trusting ourselves and the way that we learn to trust ourselves is by going out
00:15:04.480
doing what we think is best making some mistakes learning from the mistakes and then continuing down the
00:15:10.840
path and dude like i tell you guys over and over and over again you really only need a couple things
00:15:15.980
to be successful long term you got to build the grit the determination the fortitude to not quit
00:15:21.860
and you got to be smart enough to learn from your mistakes okay the first time if for sure the second
00:15:29.200
time if you're someone that can make the same mistake seven times you can't make it in business it's
00:15:33.660
fucking impossible but if you're someone that can you know make that mistake and then say all right
00:15:38.180
cool i lost ten thousand dollars today because i made this mistake that lesson cost me ten thousand
00:15:45.980
dollars and then look at it as an investment in your education and then never make that mistake again
00:15:50.420
bro there's no limits to how far you can go so anyway don't listen to people who haven't done what
00:15:56.440
it is you want to do ever they have no fucking clue what they're talking about and everybody out here
00:16:01.740
on the internet thinks there's some sort of life philosopher or fucking business advisor
00:16:06.360
how many business advisors and gurus do we have on the internet that never built a fucking company
00:16:11.620
you can't order their product you can't see their employees you can't see what the fuck they do
00:16:15.280
but somehow they know everything about business how many fucking life philosophers do we have
00:16:19.920
on the internet who write all this shit about life and you look at their life and it's a fucking
00:16:24.440
dumpster fire start qualifying who you take advice from it's a major major major skill set that you have
00:16:31.200
to have you cannot fucking take advice from people who are not in a position that you want to be in
00:16:36.920
now there are there is one exception to that if there was somebody who was in that position and then
00:16:42.360
lost that position you can listen to that person too because that person will give you valuable insight
00:16:47.720
as to how not to burn your own shit down i love it and you described uh a few times you know about
00:16:55.740
like you know imagine you're driving the titanic right you kind of like as the owner operator you
00:17:00.320
kind of have to like look out and see right when the icebergs are navigate the boat right what would
00:17:06.440
you say was one of those like moments where you had to make that pivot early on in business what was
00:17:11.360
like one of those first icebergs you kind of saw and had to readjust and you were able to readjust
00:17:16.080
because you were smaller man there's been so many dude i don't think i can name one it's just a normal
00:17:23.480
part of business that's like asking someone who is like you know how many breasts did you take
00:17:27.880
today i fucking don't know you know i'm saying like that's normal shit yeah but here's what i will
00:17:32.300
tell you i will tell you that if you lack the ability to see what is happening in the environment
00:17:44.020
the business market whatever it is whatever game you're playing and where you're playing if you lack
00:17:48.980
the ability to have foresight and vision as to what's actually coming and you can't make a plan
00:17:56.020
to navigate through you can't you can't do it dude you have to be able to look out on the horizon and
00:18:01.060
say okay this is happening this is happening this is happening we got to do this we got to move this
00:18:06.700
way and then that way we got to zig and then zag at this exact time yeah that's a huge part of
00:18:13.000
running an organization um and it's a skill that you're going to learn over time you know it's not
00:18:19.140
something that people are gifted with uh but that also comes dude with bigger visions right a lot of
00:18:26.120
people they dude here's the truth a lot of people just shouldn't be entrepreneurs they want to fucking
00:18:31.580
have a place where they show up every day at 11 30 with a fucking starbucks and they want to stay till
00:18:38.520
two and they want to walk in and they want to look around and they think they're going to make a
00:18:42.420
gazillion dollars and that's not how the fuck it works bro you've got to be able to understand every
00:18:48.200
single element of every single detail of every single product in every single market environment
00:18:54.760
period and you have to be able to anticipate and you have to be able to see what's coming and you
00:18:59.920
have to be able to uh have the confidence to make the move now versus after everybody else has made the
00:19:06.400
move and that's another thing that entrepreneurs do bro it's a me too business because entrepreneurship
00:19:11.260
has become so accessible people run it as like a me too okay and what i mean by that is they see
00:19:18.140
everybody else do something and then they do it yes i'll do it bro you're too fucking late you're too
00:19:23.140
late yeah you have to be making those moves before everybody else and when you're a small company you
00:19:28.460
could do that quickly yeah and and that's a huge advantage that reminds me uh in college when our
00:19:33.300
offensive coordinator he was like doing a film study with us one time and he put out the questions like
00:19:38.700
what what makes the quarterback the best quarterback right and everybody like gives it to
00:19:43.460
oh you got to fucking throw it long you got to throw it far he's like no you gotta be able to read
00:19:46.720
the defense it's not even just that read the defense and know when a fucking blitz is coming
00:19:50.760
no that's only part of it bro you know what then you know who makes you know what the next best
00:19:55.320
quarterback is the guy who could fucking read the defense yeah that's a good quarterback most people
00:19:59.700
can't right but do you know what the best the next best one is it's the guy that can run three or
00:20:04.520
four plays in a row to run that fifth play okay so he's running this this dive and then they're
00:20:10.820
running this toss and then they're running this play action and then they're running this and then
00:20:14.980
they run the play they're trying to score on so it's chess right and business is no different you're
00:20:20.140
going to make these little moves that are going to set up the big move that you're trying to make
00:20:24.860
and that's that's that's what makes a great fucking visionary operator i love it man i love it guys
00:20:31.240
and question number two uh andy i own a commercial cleaning company here in arizona and now have
00:20:38.720
some of the biggest names in the state as clients but last year when i was trying to land bigger
00:20:44.960
clients i had the opportunity to clean one of the biggest names and brands in the states
00:20:49.480
uh and i fucked up the job uh but i now have employees top of the line equipment and confidence to
00:20:56.080
do any job uh so at the start of quarter two i sent in a handwritten message with a nice bottle
00:21:02.360
of tequila apologizing and asking for another opportunity to work together but i got no response
00:21:07.960
um any advice on how i can restore that relationship business relationships are they salvageable how do you
00:21:15.420
do yeah first of all they're salvageable second of all when you salvage them especially when someone
00:21:19.860
is disgruntled with your services and then you exceed what they initially expect expected from
00:21:26.360
you they will actually become a massive advocate for your brand so what i mean by that is this you
00:21:32.320
piss them off now you've got to make it right the your first attempt to make it right didn't work
00:21:37.600
right um but if you get the opportunity to do it and you do it in an uh you exceed their expectations
00:21:45.020
of what they originally had and went so over the tap now that person becomes an advocate of you now
00:21:50.480
they're telling all their other business buddies dude listen work with this guy work with that guy
00:21:55.000
work with this guy and so when you when you piss someone off the ability to make it right is almost
00:22:04.400
worth pissing them off because of how good of an advocate they become when you exceed uh the expectations
00:22:12.620
of what the job was in the beginning originally and take an extra step to make it right
00:22:16.940
so what i would do is i would instead of writing a letter i would show up there and i would figure out
00:22:22.820
who the decision maker is and i would say hey here's the deal i know i fucked this up let me fucking
00:22:27.860
do it for free let me do it for free let me do let me do everything for free and let me show you
00:22:33.640
how i can do it and then when you go in and do it you do it like you if you clean the carpets bro
00:22:39.460
you also clean their windows and then you go out and wash all their cars okay i'm talking about like
00:22:44.280
over the top so that they're like holy shit okay so that's that's what i would do and i would be
00:22:50.720
relentless in in my pursuit to have the opportunity to do that knowing that the story that it's going
00:22:57.720
to create is going to be beneficial to business i would not give up on getting that customer back i
00:23:01.800
would not give up on doing whatever i had to do to make sure that i was right and i would not give
00:23:06.460
up on creating an amazing experience where they had to tell people uh how awesome of a job that
00:23:11.600
you did i was i was going to ask you like is there a point where like okay tequila didn't work that
00:23:15.860
didn't work i mean do you give up at all you kind of answer that no you just keep going because
00:23:20.860
eventually you're going to get it and that'll be part of the story look dude the story will be
00:23:26.860
this hey you got to use dj over here brand the guy fucking cleaned the carpets but let me tell you
00:23:33.360
something about him the first time he cleaned him he fucked him up then he sent me a bottle of
00:23:38.440
tequila i didn't respond then he showed up at my business and he said he'd do it for free then he
00:23:43.580
and i still didn't let him do it and then he wouldn't leave me alone for a year and finally i
00:23:48.200
let him do it dude and this is what he did you got to fucking use him the guy's relentless he's he's
00:23:52.720
he's the best most dedicated person i've ever met at this and that's the that's the recommendation
00:23:58.120
that you're you're trying to build here and you're going to build that by inconveniencing
00:24:02.500
yourself until you you've get done what you're trying to do all right i don't want to miss this
00:24:08.200
nugget here because i feel like this is also important you're talking about when you over
00:24:11.220
deliver that i feel like when you're when you do that you're you're also setting a new standard so
00:24:17.180
how important is it to make sure that like you don't just do really good that one fucking time
00:24:22.400
you gotta do it that's the other thing and that's a great point whatever standard you operate at when
00:24:28.020
you get the second opportunity you have to operate at that standard forever and ever and ever have to
00:24:32.900
so uh and by short straw and by the way why wouldn't you why wouldn't you operate at that
00:24:38.960
standard all the time if you're trying to get referral business that's how people buy people
00:24:43.260
don't necessarily buy from ads they buy from word of mouth they buy from stories they use services that
00:24:49.360
their friends use you want to own those stories that's the whole game so you own those stories you own
00:24:55.360
those recommendations your business is going to grow yeah don't just do it once and all right we
00:24:59.700
got it yeah that won't work anyway yeah that won't work anyway because the second time you do it
00:25:03.720
they're going to be like oh this guy was full of shit i knew the first time yeah fucking man jeez
00:25:08.320
i love it guys any question number three let's get third and final question uh guys any question
00:25:14.400
number three hey andy and dj a huge fan of the podcast and i've been following you in first form
00:25:20.560
for a while now a big fan of the work you're doing i've read your books um every year i love
00:25:26.860
to take some time to reflect on past year and set goals for the year ahead i find this practice really
00:25:31.820
helps me stay focused and motivated but i'd love to hear your take on it um do you have any specific
00:25:37.240
strategies or practices you follow when setting goals for the upcoming year and what's your process

00:25:47.660
appreciate everything you do and looking forward to hearing your thoughts that i don't operate that
00:25:52.600
way i don't operate that way i've never operated that way i've never i've never sat down at the
00:25:59.340
beginning of the year and been like this is what i want to do this year or this is what i want to do
00:26:03.440
next year my goals are so big that they take multiple years so like i don't think of it like that and
00:26:14.960
when i used to think of it like that i never achieved any of those things so i look at it just
00:26:20.320
like i teach you guys which is this one day at a time i look at it very simply this is my goal this
00:26:28.360
is my huge goal that i'm trying to achieve over the course of my life okay this is this is who i'm
00:26:33.600
becoming this is what i'm creating this is the businesses i'm going to create this is the physical
00:26:39.660
shape i'm going to walk around in this is the lifestyle i'm going to live and i i fucking lay
00:26:44.800
it all out there okay then i attack it one day at a time okay just like i talk about in the podcast
00:26:52.540
win the day which is episode 16 on real af if you go back to episode 16 on real af we talk in depth
00:26:59.480
about this thing called the power list all right and i actually have a an app launching for this any day
00:27:05.380
now called the power list app okay and it's a productivity app that lets you do this right there on
00:27:10.920
your phone but basically if you go listen to it it'll explain to you the productivity system that i have
00:27:18.360
used for the last 25 years to build my life so understand this huge life huge business badass physical
00:27:31.520
condition awesome lifestyle all these things go into what i want okay and then i back that down
00:27:39.580
into a day by day by day system and then i just look at it did i win today did i win do i win tomorrow
00:27:48.860
do i win the next day and i don't think of it as this massive thing i just think of it as
00:27:54.620
you know one day at a time and and dude that is the only way you could fucking win and it's by the
00:28:00.260
way the only way that you can guarantee success you cannot fucking lose if you win every day you
00:28:07.340
can't lose there is no x factor there is no magic there is no you know fucking failure villain that's
00:28:17.700
going to come in and fuck your shit up bro if you win every day you cannot fucking lose at life
00:28:22.420
so what does a win every day look like for you go listen to episode 16 and it'll help you figure that
00:28:27.620
out the live hard program is an excellent framework for success over the course of your life because
00:28:34.560
it is all the things that i have done over the course of my life that have produced this in a
00:28:41.540
repeatable system year by year by year a lot of people will say oh live hard you're only it doesn't
00:28:47.460
you got to do it over no no shit bro just like you got to take a shower discipline's a perishable skill
00:28:52.720
like playing guitar if you don't fucking practice guitar you're going to suck at guitar if you don't
00:28:57.840
practice a jiu-jitsu what's going to happen you're going to get your fucking ass beat if you don't
00:29:02.160
practice shooting guns you're not going to be good at shooting guns if you don't take a fucking shower
00:29:06.800
you're going to fucking stink okay this is the idea of discipline as well it is a perishable skill
00:29:14.260
if you do not practice it over and over and over and over again you get mentally weak and then you
00:29:20.040
cannot win the days so go do the live hard program live it every single fucking year it's less than
00:29:27.380
half the year of a commitment to being perfect which creates a situation where you're generally
00:29:33.960
getting almost everything out of your life that you want and the biggest thing that you get is you get
00:29:39.100
the ability to have the choice to do what it is you want to do with your life because you have built
00:29:45.860
the skill of discipline and you can adhere to any plan that you set forth for yourself it's not that
00:29:52.440
you don't know what to do it's that you can't fucking do it when it's not comfortable for you to do and
00:29:59.440
that's why people lose so what would your life look like if you were able to adhere perfectly to every
00:30:06.280
motherfucking plan that you ever set out for yourself from the time that you were born to now would your
00:30:12.520
life look completely different the answer for every single fucking person listening to this is yes
00:30:17.420
so fix that problem now and you will have the choice at a bare minimum to become whatever it is that you
00:30:25.420
want to become and this is a huge deal because people will say well fuck dude what if i do all this work
00:30:31.600
and i don't get where i want to go and they'll talk themselves out that is impossible it does not happen
00:30:37.220
it does not exist well so and so is a roofer he works harder than you yes at what at driving nails
00:30:45.040
into fucking shingles okay no offense but that's not a fucking high brain capacity situation we're
00:30:52.820
talking about strategically designing your life to become what it is you want to become okay and no
00:31:00.800
disrespect to anybody who wants to go do whatever they do or work very hard i have massive respect for
00:31:07.200
that but if you want to graduate from having to work hard into the situation that everybody says
00:31:14.520
it's work smart not hard no it's work very hard and then smart and then the fucking shit starts to come
00:31:20.900
together in the beginning you're gonna have to work your fucking balls off the point is this if you
00:31:25.580
develop the ability to adhere and you develop discipline and you practice it over and over and over
00:31:30.280
again there's literally nothing that you can't become create or build if you win day by day by day
00:31:37.000
i love it man i love it hell of a way to start a monday man yeah yeah kick some hats okay it took a
00:31:43.520
little minute to get started there huh yeah just a little bit balls burning shopping bag hey look dude
00:31:49.160
that's the truth guys if you fucking if you can if you can build in yourself which is what the live hard
00:31:56.320
program is all about the ability to adhere the ability to adhere like really think about this i want you to
00:32:03.460
really think about this and by the way we're fucking starting today but i want you to really think about
00:32:08.860
this what would your life look like if you had the ability to adhere to every single plan every single
00:32:18.600
dream every single goal that you have set forth for yourself from the time that you were 10 years old
00:32:25.040
to however you are now what would your life look like it would look completely different so fix that
00:32:31.200
fucking problem of adherence and everything takes care of itself because now you can say i want to be
00:32:37.640
this that could be i want to be a superior athlete you could become that i want to be this it could be an
00:32:45.700
accomplished musician you could become that i want to be a black belt in jujitsu you could become that
00:32:51.000
i want to build an amazing company you could become that i want to build an amazing relationship you could
00:32:55.780
do that there's literally nothing you fucking can't do if you can develop a plan and then adhere to it
00:33:02.300
it's not that people don't know what to do it's that they can't fucking do it so fix that problem and
