What is up guys, it's Andy Priscilla and this is the show for the real estate about the
00:00:20.480
lies, the fakeness and delusions of modern society and welcome to motherfucking reality
00:00:24.660
Guys, today we have a Saturday audio exclusive, alright, if you are frustrated and you are
00:00:31.820
angry and you are bitter and you are pissed off about where you are in your life, the
00:00:37.800
first thing that you need to realize is that you did that, alright, if you want to fix the
00:00:44.120
situation, if you want to become a better version, if you want a better outcome in your
00:00:47.800
life, you have to be willing to admit to yourself that you created your existing circumstances
00:00:58.860
Well, that was the old version of you, that was a version of you that existed many months
00:01:04.560
ago or many years ago that made decisions that have resulted in your current reality which
00:01:12.260
So until you can admit to yourself that that is the truth, you cannot move on.
00:01:17.800
I look on the internet every single day and all I see is people bitching, people crying, people
00:01:25.220
complaining about what their life looks like, wanting to change more than anything but they
00:01:31.180
pretend as if they're not in control of their circumstances.
00:01:36.200
The reason that you're unhappy with how you look is because the previous version of you made
00:01:41.160
decisions to not work out, made decisions to eat foods that didn't benefit you in that
00:01:46.980
way, made decisions to sit on the couch and watch TV instead of getting up and doing something
00:01:52.860
That doesn't mean you made the decisions because we are not who we were, we are who we are.
00:01:59.180
So if you want to change your life, you have to first admit that the reason you are unsatisfied
00:02:05.580
is because of the decisions that a previous version of you made.
00:02:09.300
And secondly, you have to admit that I am no longer that same person and I am willing
00:02:14.660
to make those changes to create a different outcome.
00:02:25.280
Well, a lot of you guys don't get it because I see on the internet every day people bitching
00:02:32.600
The reason there's no money in your bank account is because the previous version of you didn't
00:02:37.540
do the work to make that money flow into your account.
00:02:40.540
The reason that you're unhappy in your relationship is because the previous version of you valued
00:02:45.320
things that you currently do not value anymore and they made decisions about that relationship.
00:02:50.500
The reason that your job isn't what you want it to be is because the previous version of
00:02:56.260
you didn't do the things that would make it what you want it to be.
00:02:59.260
So you have a decision right now that you can make to become a brand new person in this
00:03:12.180
It takes you making a decision right now to say, I am no longer that person.
00:03:17.960
And while you may be living in the reality that that previous version of you created, you
00:03:22.620
have a chance now to behave as a different person that will create a new reality that
00:03:30.900
But that doesn't mean you can't change right this second.
00:03:34.460
We have a problem in society with victim culture.
00:03:37.380
We have a problem in society with people believing that they are the victim of circumstances,
00:03:42.880
not understanding that they are actually a victim of their poor decisions.
00:03:47.620
If you can admit that to be true, you have the power to change anything in the future.
00:03:51.840
The problem is most people won't admit that because on the internet today, we get rewarded
00:03:57.440
for talking about how hard things are, talking about how fucked up things are, talking about
00:04:03.960
how miserable we are, talking about how much suffering we're going through.
00:04:07.420
Those things right now in victim culture get attention.
00:04:14.320
And because that's the game that we play on social media, people buy into that.
00:04:19.780
And the problem with that is, is what it does is it inadvertently creates a victim reality
00:04:29.440
So be very careful with the stories you tell and the language you use and the things that
00:04:35.200
you post and the things that you say, or even the things that you think so that you
00:04:42.340
Because once you have based your identity in this victim culture, once you have based your
00:04:48.180
identity in the sad stories or the hard times, it becomes exponentially harder to break out
00:04:55.080
of that because it is who you are in your mind, in your heart.
00:04:59.380
So we have to understand there is no nobility in the hard shit unless we overcome it.
00:05:08.060
There is no nobility in the suffering unless we overcome it.
00:05:12.840
There is no nobility in any of the things that you have had to deal with in your life until
00:05:19.680
So right now I'm challenging you to become the kind of person today that is no longer
00:05:28.240
going to bitch, no longer going to cry, no longer going to make their identity as a victim.
00:05:34.240
And you are going to start right now to become the inspiration for other people who have those
00:05:41.140
same problems that you have as someone who has overcome those problems.
00:05:50.800
It is in the overcoming of the suffering, because when you can talk about and show that you have
00:05:55.760
overcome these hard things, that shows other people, that shows your neighbors, your friends,
00:06:00.800
your kids, the people at work that you are able to push through these things.
00:06:05.200
And so when they face similar things, they understand that they can push through as well.
00:06:17.900
The reason that you are unhappy right now is because you made decisions, a previous version
00:06:25.840
of you that no longer exists, made decisions in the past that have resulted in a reality
00:06:34.600
Two, you have to stop the cycle of talking about how hard things are for attention, for shares,
00:06:43.520
You have to step up and say, I am no longer that person.
00:06:47.300
I am now the person who is going to overcome these things, no matter how fucking hard it is,
00:06:52.840
because you understand that the amount of good that comes from the overcoming is worth the process of actually overcoming.
00:07:07.200
Immense amounts of good will find you because other people around you will start to overcome,
00:07:12.360
not just wallow in your self-pity or your victimhood and sit around and have a bitch circle with all your friends.
00:07:19.340
This is how you improve not just your life, but the quality of your life because of the people that you're around.
00:07:29.700
If you are unsatisfied, if you are pissed off, if you are frustrated, if you feel like shit,
00:07:36.240
understand that you do not have to remain that person.
00:07:40.360
You can change who you are by making a simple decision today and then following that decision up
00:07:46.220
with actions that will produce the result you want in the future.
00:07:50.080
None of that can happen unless you admit to yourself that you did this, this is your fault,
00:07:57.040
and by the way, I'm no longer that person that made those poor decisions in the past.
00:08:02.980
I'm going to make new decisions, which are going to create a new reality,
00:08:15.720
Stop with the nonsense and start to realize that if you truly want,
00:08:20.080
an amazing existence, if you truly want to feel better,
00:08:24.680
if you truly want to be fulfilled in your life and to look back at the end of your life and say,
00:08:32.960
It's going to come from the hard shit that you overcame.
00:08:39.040
oh, I lived this shitty life and it was everybody else's fault.
00:08:42.780
Your entire life, how you're going to feel about your life depends on you understanding this.
00:08:53.460
Three, start taking the actions of what that different person would actually do.
00:08:57.980
And then four, be patient enough to allow the results to materialize.
00:09:09.320
Yes, things are hard, but don't tell the hard shit unless you talk about how you overcame it.
00:09:16.140
Go out, kick ass, become the version of the self that you want to be.
00:09:20.040
And the world and you and everybody around you is going to be better for it.
