Transcript

00:00:00.320 I can stack them hundreds to the roof. I ain't stopping till they stack to the moon.
00:00:04.780 Without me, my family wouldn't have food. Anybody go against me gotta lose.
00:00:12.340 What is up guys? You're listening to the MFCEO Project. I'm Andy. I'm your host and I am the motherfucking CEO.
00:00:20.080 Guys, the goal here of this podcast, of this movement, is to make you the motherfucking CEO of you as well.
00:00:32.260 If you don't know what a motherfucking CEO is, let me lay it out for you.
00:00:36.620 It is someone who recognizes that they are in control. It is someone who takes ownership.
00:00:42.920 It is someone who does what they need to do to become who they want to be.
00:00:51.160 Okay? And it's someone who does it with a little bit of style, with a little bit of swagger, with a little bit of attitude.
00:00:57.180 Because here's the truth. If you can't get the eyeballs to follow you around, you're not going to get the money to follow you around either.
00:01:05.500 We're going to cover entrepreneurship. We're going to cover personal development.
00:01:09.600 We're going to cover morality. We're going to cover all sorts of things on this podcast that have to do with leveling up.
00:01:19.320 Alright? Lots of people right now are talking about being an entrepreneur, being successful, being this, being that, being whatever.
00:01:28.960 But they lack the core, fundamental building blocks that this show covers in detail almost 300 episodes that need to be possessed to create who it is you want to be.
00:01:47.500 There's programs on every single thing out there that you can buy.
00:01:51.540 But there is nothing that teaches you how to become everything.
00:01:58.540 That's what this show is about.
00:02:01.060 Okay?
00:02:02.000 Now, if this is your first time listening, welcome.
00:02:05.340 If it's not, you know the fee.
00:02:08.380 The fee is this.
00:02:10.200 The fee is, I ask you guys to refer a friend per episode that you find valuable.
00:02:18.080 And that doesn't mean refer one friend for all the episodes.
00:02:22.520 That means refer a friend for every episode.
00:02:25.540 And some of you guys do a damn good job at this.
00:02:28.000 Some of you guys don't do it at all.
00:02:29.640 And I can tell by the way you comment on my Instagram posts.
00:02:34.280 You get real hot for a while and you're like, oh yeah, blah, blah, blah.
00:02:38.300 Then you go away for a while.
00:02:39.920 Then you get hot for a while.
00:02:41.040 Then you go away for a while.
00:02:42.140 That's not MFCEO shit.
00:02:43.760 MFCEO shit is showing up no matter what every time to show who the fuck you are with your
00:02:52.760 words, with your actions, with everything that you are and everything that you do.
00:02:58.720 All right?
00:02:59.380 And with that being said, show me some love.
00:03:03.180 Show the podcast some love.
00:03:04.960 I'm out here giving you my best.
00:03:06.960 Give me your best in return.
00:03:08.260 That's all I ask.
00:03:09.360 All right?
00:03:09.640 Now, I want to share a little bit of a story with you, okay?
00:03:14.300 A lot of you guys know I'm doing 75 Hard.
00:03:18.240 What is 75 Hard?
00:03:19.400 75 Hard is the only program out there that will give you the qualities of unlimited self-confidence,
00:03:31.760 unlimited self-esteem, unlimited self-worth, fortitude, grit, endurance, perseverance, and
00:03:41.360 a million other things that you're going to need to build the life that you want.
00:03:47.200 And I cover this all in the most recent podcast I did.
00:03:51.220 Not the most recent, but a couple podcasts ago.
00:03:54.080 And it's just called 75 Hard, The Guide to Winning the War with Yourself.
00:03:59.140 Okay?
00:03:59.400 So, if you want to know about that, go do it.
00:04:01.800 But all my friends know that I'm doing this as well because I'm making it public.
00:04:06.820 I'm going to show you guys that I do what the fuck I say I'm going to do.
00:04:12.560 And I don't just preach it.
00:04:14.520 I don't just teach it.
00:04:16.640 I also do it.
00:04:18.480 All right?
00:04:18.780 A lot of these guys out there are teaching you shit they never did before.
00:04:22.260 A lot of these guys out there are preaching without following through.
00:04:25.800 That's not what I'm about.
00:04:27.500 All right?
00:04:27.900 I'm out there in front.
00:04:29.500 I'm going to show you how it's done.
00:04:31.140 And you should be doing it with me.
00:04:32.820 If you're not doing it with me, I don't know what the fuck you're waiting for because this
00:04:36.640 is the only way to gain the building blocks you actually need in that short amount of
00:04:40.920 time.
00:04:41.220 And I think that 75 days is a pretty fucking short time to gain literally all the things
00:04:48.220 you need to succeed in any area that you want.
00:04:52.640 But that's just me.
00:04:54.960 All right?
00:04:55.360 I'm willing to give that.
00:04:56.760 And you know what?
00:04:57.420 I'm willing to give a little bit more than everybody else to get what I want to get.
00:05:00.480 And that's why I'm getting what I really want to get.
00:05:04.560 All right?
00:05:05.440 So here's the deal, guys.
00:05:06.720 I was talking to one of my friends, a really good friend of mine who's in the Arte Syndicate.
00:05:10.440 Um, and he was texting me last night and, uh, I'm excited.
00:05:14.940 Uh, Joel Marion is who I'm talking about.
00:05:16.880 He was texting me.
00:05:17.660 He's on vacation.
00:05:18.340 He's down in the, uh, down in, uh, Trinidad, I think, in this beautiful house right now.
00:05:24.880 And he's up at 2 a.m. in the morning, just like I am, because guess what?
00:05:29.640 We're fucking working.
00:05:31.280 And, um, he said, he said, Hey dude, I see you crushing it on 75 hard.
00:05:38.400 And I'm like, yeah, man, he's like, what's it like doing the, the out, the, the outdoor
00:05:44.040 cardio or the outdoor workout in that St. Louis winter weather.
00:05:47.380 And I'm like, bro, the truth is I wish it was fucking harder.
00:05:53.120 I wish the weather was worse.
00:05:55.160 I wish the weather sucked.
00:05:56.980 I wish I was in aunt fucking Artica right now doing this shit.
00:06:01.720 And he just laughed because he knows it's the truth.
00:06:04.820 I do wish that.
00:06:06.560 I do wish it was tougher.
00:06:08.860 I'm out there 22 degrees weather.
00:06:10.920 I wish it was minus 22.
00:06:13.860 And most people can't get it.
00:06:16.580 Joe gets it because he understands where I'm coming from.
00:06:20.540 But most people are like, why the fuck would you want it to be minus 22?
00:06:24.940 I'm going to tell you why I want it to be minus 20 fucking two, because I want to know
00:06:32.080 what the fuck I'm made of.
00:06:34.220 I want to know what I can overcome.
00:06:36.740 And I know from experience that the harder the task to overcome, the harder the obstacle
00:06:45.500 to overcome, the more strength I'm going to gain from it.
00:06:51.460 I call those test days.
00:06:54.200 In our most, not our most recent, but a recent episode, I had the iron cowboy, James Lawrence,
00:07:01.440 who is a living legend on the podcast.
00:07:04.360 And I referenced test days.
00:07:06.000 And although I do have a podcast from three, four years ago that talks about the importance
00:07:13.960 of test days, I haven't talked about it in a long time.
00:07:18.460 And we have a lot of new listeners.
00:07:20.200 So I want to talk about this a little bit.
00:07:22.680 You know, people have asked me, what's a test day?
00:07:25.300 What's this?
00:07:25.800 What's that?
00:07:26.240 Well, all you're showing is that you're not doing your homework.
00:07:29.000 There's a lot of good fucking info that isn't recent on the podcast.
00:07:33.100 And guess what?
00:07:34.200 You should go listen to it.
00:07:35.940 But here's the deal.
00:07:36.880 I'm going to cover it today for you anyway.
00:07:39.040 All right.
00:07:39.400 So here's the truth, guys.
00:07:41.760 I'm no different than any of you.
00:07:43.640 I am literally not any smarter.
00:07:45.720 I'm not any more gifted.
00:07:47.780 I don't have any talents that you don't have.
00:07:50.620 And at different points of my life, just like you, I've let myself get out of shape.
00:07:56.920 And I've tried to make excuses.
00:07:59.840 I've tried to justify my actions.
00:08:03.260 You know, I tell myself all the same shit.
00:08:05.860 I'm too busy.
00:08:07.380 I'm running seven companies.
00:08:09.240 I've got literally thousands of people that depend on me on a daily basis.
00:08:15.340 And I have all this pressure and all these things and all this stuff.
00:08:18.920 And I try to justify it.
00:08:20.340 But in my heart, I still know it's bullshit.
00:08:24.160 Okay.
00:08:24.600 I know I'm lying to myself.
00:08:26.480 I know that my discipline edge, my discipline blade, so to speak, is getting dull.
00:08:34.000 All right.
00:08:34.640 And I can see it when I look in the fucking mirror.
00:08:37.220 And so can you, by the way.
00:08:38.820 You want to know how hard you are?
00:08:41.120 Look in the fucking mirror.
00:08:42.420 That's an exact, exact mirror image of how hard you are on the fucking inside.
00:08:50.840 That's a fact.
00:08:52.140 All right.
00:08:52.480 And you can't argue it.
00:08:54.240 But here's the thing.
00:08:55.620 Everybody sees people who look great, who have all the confidence, who have all the
00:09:00.600 self-esteem, who have all this ability, who have all these things going for them, and
00:09:05.100 they think they got it all figured out.
00:09:07.160 They think it's easy for them.
00:09:08.580 And that's one of the justifications that they tell themselves.
00:09:12.580 All right.
00:09:13.260 It's not like there aren't days I don't want to go to the gym.
00:09:16.400 And the truth is, most of the days I don't want to go to the gym, but I do, even though
00:09:23.560 I don't feel like it.
00:09:25.400 Anybody who knows anything about me knows that I always say, do it anyway.
00:09:31.920 Okay.
00:09:32.240 It's something I've been saying for years.
00:09:34.000 It doesn't matter if there's a fucking tornado, if there's a snowstorm, if there's a hurricane,
00:09:38.860 if the fucking world is on fire, the job has to get done.
00:09:43.820 It's about executing regardless of your emotions.
00:09:48.640 All right.
00:09:48.880 And that's a well-covered topic.
00:09:50.180 I talk about it a lot.
00:09:51.820 All right.
00:09:52.340 But what almost no one talks about is starting to love the days you have to execute, that
00:10:01.280 you have to perform, that you have to get the job done, especially when you don't feel
00:10:07.480 like it.
00:10:08.280 That's what I call test days.
00:10:10.700 And that's what I want to cover with you guys.
00:10:13.160 These test days, guys, these are the days that test your qualities.
00:10:18.020 They test your characters.
00:10:19.680 They test who you think you are.
00:10:22.420 They test your fortitude.
00:10:24.160 They test your endurance, your discipline, your grit, your dedication, your determination,
00:10:30.380 your mental toughness.
00:10:32.340 Your character is in question on these days.
00:10:35.900 You are testing your ability to do something.
00:10:39.480 And that something is something significant to your dreams.
00:10:43.440 It's something critical to your goals.
00:10:45.800 At the very moment when everything in you wants to do absolutely nothing, when you'd rather
00:10:52.360 sit on the couch and eat fucking Cheetos than go to the gym, when you'd rather die than send
00:10:59.680 another email or take another phone call or talk to another human, you've got to get the job done.
00:11:06.820 That's the key to success.
00:11:08.840 That's what we're talking about testing yourself.
00:11:11.600 That's the test you have to pass in order to earn your way into the life that you desire.
00:11:19.900 Okay, but most people dread these days.
00:11:24.080 Most people are scared of these days, but not me and not people who win consistently.
00:11:31.700 Why is that?
00:11:33.260 Well, one, it's an opportunity to prove to everyone else, but most importantly, yourself, what you're
00:11:42.340 made of.
00:11:42.900 It's an opportunity to prove that you're a winner.
00:11:45.760 It's an opportunity to prove you are what you say you are in your head when you look
00:11:52.020 in the mirror.
00:11:52.600 When you look in the mirror and you say, there goes a bad motherfucker, you actually believe
00:11:57.600 it.
00:11:58.060 That's the importance of passing these tests.
00:12:01.720 Successful people love the experience of not feeling like doing shit, but then going and
00:12:08.800 kicking ass anyway.
00:12:11.000 They understand that those are the real victories in life.
00:12:13.900 They understand that it's easy to do shit when you feel like doing shit, but they also understand
00:12:20.940 that the real magic, the real glory is earned when your heart is not into something, but
00:12:29.120 your mind tells you, fuck you, I'm going to do this shit anyway and does it.
00:12:36.060 That's where people separate themselves from the pack.
00:12:39.360 That's where people earn the right to success.
00:12:44.180 They earn the money.
00:12:45.740 They earn the life.
00:12:47.120 They earn the relationship.
00:12:48.800 They earn the body in those little moments where they don't want to do what they need
00:12:56.880 to do, but move forward regardless of how they feel.
00:13:01.660 That's what champions know, champions understand, and champions fucking thrive on, and those
00:13:08.760 are called your test days.
00:13:10.820 Now, I know you're wondering, how do you learn to love these days when these days are hard?
00:13:16.700 Well, I think I just explained a lot of that, but you have to first learn how to spot them,
00:13:22.180 okay?
00:13:22.580 A lot of people can't even spot when these days are hard.
00:13:26.040 How do you know when a test day is happening?
00:13:27.640 How do you know when you're having one of these days?
00:13:31.600 Well, guys, it's really simple.
00:13:34.880 You feel them, okay?
00:13:37.080 The minute you start thinking, I don't want to do this, the minute that feeling creeps in,
00:13:44.000 that's the time you're having a test.
00:13:46.540 The minute you feel the ache of, I'd rather do something else, I'd rather do anything else
00:13:52.440 than this, that's the test.
00:13:54.360 The minute you train yourself to say, this is my opportunity, is the minute you go from
00:14:03.940 loser to fucking winner, and this is a skill.
00:14:08.180 This is something you practice, all right?
00:14:11.480 You have to understand that at that point where you see yourself recognizing that I'm having
00:14:18.320 a test, and that this is my opportunity to prove to myself, that's when you stop having
00:14:25.200 dialogue with your emotions.
00:14:27.420 You stop negotiating with your feelings, and you start to act.
00:14:32.460 I call this a production pivot.
00:14:34.320 Production pivot is you recognize the feeling, you use it as a trigger to act, and you get
00:14:40.240 up and you start moving, okay?
00:14:42.540 And that's what I want to, what's a trigger, all right?
00:14:45.420 Every addiction has a trigger, and when you start to act, that's when the magic happens,
00:14:52.700 okay?
00:14:53.120 When you step up on a test day, when you successfully complete a test day, it's going to be one of
00:15:01.020 the most euphoric, powerful experiences that you've ever had.
00:15:06.280 You're going to see immediate confidence, immediate boost in self-esteem, all right?
00:15:11.240 You guys know what this feels like because you've inherently done it even on accident
00:15:15.620 sometimes.
00:15:16.500 You can't tell me that there's been a time where you've resisted the opportunity to be
00:15:22.000 a lazy fuck and move forward anyway.
00:15:24.740 You've done this, and you know what it feels like, and this is how you build the process
00:15:29.640 of momentum, okay?
00:15:31.460 And you'll want it to happen again.
00:15:33.440 You're going to look for the test.
00:15:35.360 You're going to become so focused on the test that you're going to be like what I said in
00:15:39.840 the beginning of the show, which was, I wish the test was harder, and what happens when
00:15:45.940 you start to make the test harder?
00:15:47.860 Your strength and your skills and your character gets stronger, all right?
00:15:53.360 But here's the key.
00:15:54.880 You've got to recognize the feeling because the feeling is the trigger.
00:15:59.420 Every addiction has triggers.
00:16:01.400 You'll come to understand that the feelings of not wanting to do something are your triggers.
00:16:06.520 These are the signs that you're having an opportunity to indulge in your addiction, and your addiction
00:16:14.060 is fucking winning.
00:16:16.820 That's how you're going to learn to love test days, and that's how you're going to produce
00:16:22.580 the skills you need, which are the qualities that I mentioned before.
00:16:28.420 Fortitude, endurance, discipline, grit, dedication, mental toughness that are the building blocks
00:16:36.920 of building a successful life.
00:16:40.720 Test days are not something to be dreaded.
00:16:43.740 Test days are only to be dreaded by people who can't pass the fucking test, and all of
00:16:50.080 you have the ability to pass the test.
00:16:52.300 All of you have the ability to get better.
00:16:55.120 All of you have the ability to recognize when this is happening, and all of you have the
00:17:01.840 ability to proceed past the temptation, past the feeling, and get to where you want to go.
00:17:11.660 Test days are something that champions understand.
00:17:15.400 Test days are something that champions live by.
00:17:20.240 It's time that you started living by it, too.
00:17:25.120 Test days are something that champions live by it, too.
00:17:29.380 Test days are something that you wish for, but it's something that funds have been
00:17:29.980 remembered on the situation, and then you need any questions you want to pass the
00:17:32.000 thing into the situation.
00:17:32.960 Test days are something that Cyber
00:17:40.460 that's being transformed by the good at getting worse.
