00:01:12.520 how you're going to be great but then also at the same time have some sort of issue with people
00:01:20.860 having a fucking chip on your shoulder let me explain to you guys what i'm talking about okay 0.97
00:01:28.280 when i first started in business in 1999 every single person i know every single friend every
00:01:35.760 single family member with the exception of maybe one or two uh every single acquaintance they all
00:01:42.160 told me that we were stupid they all told me oh you guys you know that's a cool thing that's a nice
00:01:48.740 project that's this uh you know it's cool that you guys are trying that it's cool that you guys are uh
00:01:54.920 that you guys are you know gonna open up that little vitamin shop but what are you gonna do after
00:02:00.460 that like what are you really gonna do and they would say things like that you know like what are
00:02:03.920 you what are you really gonna do when like it's time to get serious like what are you really gonna do
00:02:07.860 when uh you know it's time to grow up what are you really gonna do whenever you know it's it's time
00:02:13.060 to, you know, build a real career. And every time somebody said that to me, I wanted to punch them
00:02:18.840 in the fucking mouth. Okay. And as we grew, you know, it took six years for us to, to open a
00:02:26.700 second store. All right. The first three years we didn't get paid at all. The second three years I
00:02:32.500 made $695 a month. Okay. So six years in we're broke. We have barely any money coming in. We're
00:02:40.620 working multiple jobs to keep our store even open to get to the point where we can open a second
00:02:46.300 store. And now I have people saying, Oh, that's cool. You guys opened a second store, but you know,
00:02:51.960 don't you think you're kind of wasting your time? Don't you think it's time to grow up? Don't you
00:02:56.160 think it's time to, you know, get a real job? Don't you think it's time to, you know, start thinking
00:03:01.040 about your future? All right. And, and granted, all these people who were there on day one,
00:03:06.640 they've now graduated college. They've got a degree. They're making 40 fucking grand a year,
00:03:12.220 whatever it is they're making. And you know, they're, they're fucking big shots. And I'm a
00:03:17.080 little fucking pissant with a vitamin store, not doing shit. All right. Now here we are 17 years in,
00:03:27.260 uh, you know, we're doing very well. We're growing very quickly. We've, we've dedicated our entire adult
00:03:33.960 lives to building this business. And you know what? Everybody's fucking proud of it. Oh,
00:03:38.600 we're so proud of you. We always knew you could do it. We always knew that you guys were something
00:03:42.900 special. You know what? Fuck you. No, you didn't. I remember what the fuck you said to me. And yeah,
00:03:48.500 I do have a fucking chip on my shoulder, a big one. And you should too. And that's the point of this
00:03:53.240 podcast. You know, you guys who, who are in the beginning stages of your business, of your career,
00:03:59.620 of what you're trying to do. You're going to have those same people telling you because you're
00:04:05.560 trying to do something that's unconventional, telling you that you should try to do something
00:04:10.600 else or what, you know, it's cool that you're doing that, but when are you going to get serious
00:04:14.120 or that's never going to amount to anything or you're wasting your time, don't you think?
00:04:18.760 And they're going to try to talk you out of all this shit. All right. And those things that people
00:04:24.860 say to you are a blessing. All right. Those are what create this massive fucking chip on your
00:04:32.460 shoulder that you can draw upon and all the situations where it gets hard and all the
00:04:39.580 situations where it gets so tough that you don't want to go on. All right. And everybody will tell
00:04:47.820 you, and let's say to me right now, Andy, why you got such a big chip on your shoulder? Well, I don't
00:04:52.040 know, maybe because for the better part of the last 20 years, I deal with motherfuckers like you 0.99
00:04:55.660 that told me I wasn't going to do shit. And now you act like you're fucking proud of it. Now that
00:05:00.760 I fucking make it some money and I'm living in a nice house, I'm driving nice cars and we built a
00:05:04.960 nice business. You guys think that's cool. Okay. Maybe, maybe, uh, it's, maybe it's the last 20 years
00:05:11.340 of whenever you were fucking gossiping or talking shit or telling me I wasn't going to make it or 0.97
00:05:15.840 telling me, you know, that I wasn't good enough or that we were fucking a joke and this and this and 0.98
00:05:20.520 this and this and this dude, I heard it all, but you know what? I didn't fucking listen to it.
00:05:25.380 I heard it, but I didn't listen to it. All right. I heard it. I absorbed it. I put it in my fucking
00:05:31.360 chip. All right. I let it build my chip. And now my chip is so fucking big and so powerful
00:05:37.380 that I will fucking do anything to make sure that we get to our end goal. Okay. So when you have all
00:05:44.020 these people who tell you it's wrong to have a chip on your shoulder or it's wrong to feel aggressive
00:05:49.640 towards your goals or it's wrong to get mad at people whenever they don't believe in you,
00:05:54.040 fuck those people. Use those people, take that energy, put it in a place that you can draw upon
00:06:02.240 it and use it when you don't feel like moving forward. I don't care what anybody says. I don't
00:06:08.700 care what anybody tells you. I don't care if it's Mark Cuban. I don't care if it's fucking, uh,
00:06:14.500 Bill Gates. I don't care if it's Warren Buffett. I don't care who it is. I'm going to tell you right
00:06:20.500 now, every one of those guys has a massive competitive chip on their shoulder that comes
00:06:28.360 from people doubting them. They might not talk about it because it's not cool to talk about,
00:06:33.700 but you know what? I'm in the business of talking about what's not cool. So we're going to fucking
00:06:36.660 talk about it. They might not, you know, be as vocal about it, but I guarantee you sit them down.
00:06:42.260 If you have a fucking drink with them, if you get them to open up to you, which I'm sure they do
00:06:46.320 very, very rarely, they will tell you that they want to smash the fuck out of every single person
00:06:51.260 that ever fucking doubted them. And a big part of why they go on and why they move forward and why
00:06:56.200 they want to win is so that they can have the last fucking laugh. People who win don't bow down to
00:07:05.740 negativity. They don't cry about the bad things that people say about them. They don't complain
00:07:11.840 about the people not believing them or wanting them to succeed. They take that, they absorb that,
00:07:20.280 and then they draw upon that whenever they don't have the energy to keep moving forward.
00:07:26.060 And there is nothing wrong with that. I don't care what all the do-gooders in society say. I don't care
00:07:32.080 what all the fucking hippies say. I don't care what all the everybody win. People should say,
00:07:38.260 if you have the ability to store up what people say negatively to you and then turn that into
00:07:45.920 productive action, that means when you don't feel like doing what you need to do, you remember all
00:07:53.580 the shit these people said. If you have that ability, if you can hone that ability, if you can form that
00:08:02.080 skill, you have a tremendous asset and a tremendous tool to use on your journey of growth.
00:08:10.020 Now, is that popular to talk about? No, it's not popular because everybody wants to act like this.
00:08:15.300 Oh, that shit doesn't affect me. Oh, you know what? Fuck those people. I don't care what they say.
00:08:20.060 Bullshit. Everybody fucking cares. Everybody fucking cares what they say. I care. You care. Everybody
00:08:25.360 cares. Fucking everybody out there who says, I don't care what anybody says, you know, they're lying.
00:08:30.520 People fucking care. But people who win learn to take that shit, build it up into a huge ball of
00:08:38.560 energy and use it to drive them when they need it. And that's the difference. That's the difference
00:08:44.420 between people who fucking win and people who fucking lose. People who win understand how to
00:08:49.400 take negativity and transform it into productive energy. People who lose take negativity and let that
00:08:57.300 cripple them and stop them from doing anything. And that is the biggest difference between winners 1.00
00:09:03.760 and losers.
