00:00:00.000 what is up guys you're listening to the MFCEO project I'm Andy I'm your host and I am the 0.76
00:00:14.260 motherfucking CEO today is the first MFCEO project podcast of 2018 it also happens to be 0.58
00:00:24.800 the first day of 2018 and you know what I know if you're like most people you probably nursing a 0.98
00:00:32.820 little bit of a hangover and you're probably saying oh you know what I'm probably gonna start
00:00:36.980 tomorrow and you're putting off what it is you're going to accomplish this year
00:00:42.660 already on the first day this is why people lose this is why people end up doing the same thing
00:00:51.320 over and over and over again year after year after year because they can't even get it right
00:00:57.600 on the first fucking day all right but here's the thing guys this year is going to be different 0.95
00:01:04.460 and I'd said in the last podcast that 2018 wasn't going to be your year unless you did specific 0.92
00:01:12.000 things and one of those specific things was creating a plan of action and developing a system
00:01:19.460 for how you're going to accomplish your goals and today what I'm going to do and I referenced an
00:01:24.900 episode episode 107 which is a very great episode it's long and there's a lot of content in there and
00:01:31.480 you should listen to it but what I want to do today guys is just give a very short summary of how
00:01:37.160 I accomplish my goals the system I use and if you're familiar with the podcast you know this okay
00:01:45.700 you know it's called the power list I'm going to review this very short so if you know this system
00:01:50.340 you know it's a good refresher because today is the first day of the year you guys are talking 0.73
00:01:55.800 about all the shit that you're going to accomplish and you need a system you need something that is 0.94
00:02:01.220 going to help you accomplish the things that you want to accomplish most people that write down 0.99
00:02:08.900 goals they leave it at that right they say hey this is 2018 I'm going to lose 50 pounds I'm going to
00:02:14.820 become successful I'm going to get promoted I'm going to become a better family man and they write
00:02:19.700 they say this this is the goals right and that's where they stop that's what they that's what they
00:02:24.060 stop and that's why they never accomplish anything and that's why we go over and over and over again with
00:02:29.640 the same things every year because we stop at deciding what it is we want and we don't go into how
00:02:36.720 we're going to get them so today I'm just going to talk about how you're going to get your goals okay
00:02:42.540 so whatever it is your goals let's say your goals are to get promoted at your job to lose 50 pounds
00:02:50.300 and to become a better dad all right let's just say those are your three job your three goals for
00:02:55.660 the year so if you look all over the internet you're going to see successful people saying this 0.98
00:03:00.460 kind of shit oh I got to grind 24 7 oh I got to work so hard that you know I never sleep you know 1.00
00:03:07.100 team no sleep and all this other shit guys and I'm here to tell you that is total bullshit okay 1.00
00:03:11.980 you need to be effective it doesn't matter how much you work it doesn't matter how much time you 0.99
00:03:17.540 put into it it doesn't matter if you work 24 hours a day if I'm getting five things done in the first
00:03:24.160 hour of my day that are going to move me forward for that day then I'm going to beat you because 0.88
00:03:29.440 what's going to happen is you're going to commit to yourself that you're going to do 17 things and
00:03:34.600 20 things and this and that and you're never going to be able to accomplish it all right so the first
00:03:39.340 thing is this guys we're going to break down five critical tasks that we're going to accomplish
00:03:45.500 on a daily basis all right and if you complete those five critical tasks you're going to mark
00:03:52.200 your day as a win all right so this is real easy you go you go and you pick out a piece of paper it
00:03:59.180 doesn't have to be a special piece of paper it doesn't have to be a special book although I do sell
00:04:04.020 powerless books that help you track this on the mfco.com a lot of you guys have them you don't
00:04:09.720 have to have that I never had that obviously when I was going through it so you don't need it it is a
00:04:15.020 very nice book and you should definitely go buy it but you don't need it all right so you're going to
00:04:21.140 get yourself a book or a piece of paper or something you go to office depot or amazon and order yourself
00:04:25.540 a notebook okay and you're going to number the pit you're going to number the lines one through one
00:04:30.200 two three four five and you're going to put down five critical tasks for that day all right and
00:04:36.020 this is not this is where most people fuck up most people instead of putting down five critical tasks
00:04:41.960 they put down their goals all right they they put down things like I'm going to be a better dad today 0.70
00:04:48.780 and I'm going to read five books by Friday and I'm going to become a millionaire I'm going to prove 0.99
00:04:53.760 my memory thirty percent today like they write down this crazy shit this is not a goal list this 0.98
00:05:00.600 is a to-do list of critical tasks okay so most people will fuck this up by writing down the goals 0.99
00:05:06.580 the other way people fuck this up is by writing down shit that is not a critical task and is already a 0.97
00:05:14.360 habit okay so they'll write down shit like this wake up at 7 a.m. when they've already been waking up at 0.99
00:05:21.680 7 a.m. for their whole entire lives or they'll put like you know um work out when they've already 0.95
00:05:28.820 been working out for you know their whole entire lives and they've made a habit of this okay so you
00:05:35.740 can't you can't put things down that are already a habit and you have to hold yourself accountable
00:05:41.060 to this this is five critical tasks that you need to do to progress past and move forward a little bit
00:05:48.760 today all right and if you complete those five critical tasks you're gonna mark the day as a win
00:05:54.780 all right that's how this works it's very very simple so let's just say for example right now your
00:06:03.440 goal this year is to lose 50 pounds your critical tasks on January 1st today will look like this
00:06:12.720 day line number one go for a 30-minute walk line number two eat the proper macronutrients
00:06:25.920 that are required for my daily goals line number three since you've already taken care of your
00:06:34.240 fitness goals for that day line number three would be like this I'm gonna read 10 pages in my new
00:06:41.700 personal development book whatever that book might be pick one all right line number four might be
00:06:48.840 send five emails out and line number five might be make one social media post today that is progressing
00:06:58.000 and growing my personal brand all right now those five things are not things that you do on a normal
00:07:03.420 basis they are things that you are doing that are moving you towards what your goals are okay and your
00:07:09.220 goals and your critical tasks are two different things now when you go through and if you go
00:07:16.320 through the power list and let's say you check off all five of those things you get a win all right and
00:07:20.480 the next day you're going to put five critical tasks down again now on Tuesday your critical tasks
00:07:28.640 the next day day number two might be the same some of them might be the exact same all right it might be
00:07:35.120 again I'm going to eat my proper macronutrients I'm going to go for a 30 minute walk you might add
00:07:40.300 in I'm going to go on a I'm going to do a weight workout today whatever it is you're doing and then
00:07:44.340 it still might be send five emails and read 10 pages like we said now eventually those actions that
00:07:51.660 you're writing down are going to become automatic you're going to start doing those on a daily basis so
00:07:56.640 let's say for 21 days if you have something in your power list for 21 days so like if you're
00:08:04.060 committed to your workout and you win every day right you're winning Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday
00:08:08.880 Friday which by the way creates a win for the week you no can no longer put that on your power list
00:08:16.480 so if you've won 21 days in a row and you've created a habit when you get to the point where you've created
00:08:22.400 a habit of doing your 30 minute walk and eating the proper macronutrients okay and sending those
00:08:29.240 five emails and reading those 10 pages when you've created the habit of that you have to remove those
00:08:35.180 from your power list and replace them with new critical tasks this is something that people don't do
00:08:40.760 a lot of people start using this system and they start they're like oh this is so cool Andy this is so
00:08:46.900 great but they're doing the same things every single day for the entire year and yes you will
00:08:53.380 make progress that way but you won't make as much progress as you could if you held yourself
00:08:58.520 accountable to removing the items once they become a habit and only you know that so I say 21 days if
00:09:04.940 you have something on your on your power list for 21 days in a row you should absolutely remove that
00:09:10.660 from the power list replace it with a new critical task okay now if you miss a day here or there like
00:09:18.120 let's say out of 21 days you missed three or four days but you still feel after 21 days that you are
00:09:24.220 in a routine and you're in a habit you should absolutely still remove that from the power list
00:09:29.440 and replace it with a new item guys I define success always on this podcast as the pursuit of
00:09:36.700 fulfillment of your own true potential okay because you never actually reach your true potential
00:09:40.920 because your potential is always expanding as you learn new skills and progress more in life so
00:09:47.300 you have to understand this tool is about that this tool is used to push you to progress and expand your
00:09:56.360 potential all right you can you can have a lot of success by writing down five critical tasks and
00:10:02.080 accomplishing them okay but if you don't continually replace them with new ones once these old ones come
00:10:07.780 to habit you will stop growing all right and the point of this is to grow all right so what do we
00:10:13.620 have we have one day we have five critical tasks and if you execute on those five critical tasks you
00:10:19.700 create a win for the day all right so you write a little w on the day in the power list journal
00:10:24.440 actually have a w that you circle or an l that you circle so if you get only four out of the five
00:10:29.600 critical tasks done that's a loss that's not a win this is not a fucking average game it's all or 0.96
00:10:35.220 nothing so if you get four that's a loss if you get five that's a win now the whole point of this book
00:10:42.540 and what you need to understand is that like I talked about in the last podcast when we have
00:10:50.340 confidence in ourselves when we have trust in ourselves when we believe in ourselves that's when
00:10:55.580 the real power comes so this system the power list is designed for you to actually physically
00:11:03.620 because a lot of people think oh well I'll just do this on my phone or I'll just do this on my notes 0.92
00:11:08.960 on my phone the reason I don't tell you to do it in your fucking phone is because it's not designed for 0.98
00:11:14.420 you to do in your fucking phone it's designed to do in in a book a notebook for a reason because when 0.99
00:11:23.480 you have a hundred wins in a row you can actually flip through and see how much you're winning and 0.99
00:11:30.940 how much you're losing really quick and there'll be a big stack of w's and a little bitty stack of l's
00:11:36.280 and that makes you feel good that makes you know you're winning that makes you have momentum and the
00:11:40.500 point of this system guys is not only to help you progress but it's to help you feel confident and
00:11:48.020 feel powerful and feel like you can accomplish big things because you can if you have the proper
00:11:54.240 system guys this is the exact system that I've used for over 15 years now okay the goal here is to get
00:12:03.000 a win every day all right and when you create a habit of winning it creates a snowball effect when you
00:12:08.760 win enough days you win a week right and when you win enough weeks you win the month when you win
00:12:14.380 enough months you win the year and when you win enough years guess what you win in your life and
00:12:19.700 that's what this system is designed to do now a lot of people will say well Andy why can't I put 15
00:12:26.220 tasks because I can handle 15 tasks no you can't this is five critical tasks and if you get them done
00:12:32.700 before uh you know let's say 10 o'clock in the morning guess what you got the rest of the day do
00:12:38.620 whatever the fuck you want okay that's your time you just need five five critical tasks a day winning 0.61
00:12:46.320 winning every day which five critical tasks will create whatever it is you're looking to create 0.99
00:12:51.180 whether that's in your fitness life your family life your spiritual life your financial life it will
00:12:56.100 let you and show you and get you to where you want to go if you use it properly okay but you have to
00:13:03.600 use it properly and by putting 10 tasks on there or 15 tasks because you think you're a superstar and
00:13:09.640 everybody else is just a little peasant weakling you're actually going to short circuit yourself 1.00
00:13:15.120 and this is why because you're not going to be able to get 15 things done a day for 100 days in a row
00:13:21.780 and when you do that you're going to see a big stack of L's and a little bitty stack of W's and when you
00:13:28.380 see that guess what you're not going to have you're not going to have the confidence you're not going to
00:13:32.560 have the belief you're not going to have the trust in yourself that you're going to be able to
00:13:37.720 accomplish and do what it is you promised yourself you're going to do okay so it's very very very
00:13:43.800 important that you utilize this exactly as I say all right so what did we talk about we talked about
00:13:52.220 this five critical tasks okay if you complete all five tasks you win you get to circle the W or write a
00:13:59.600 W at the top of the page if you don't complete all five tasks you lose you get to circle the L or
00:14:05.920 write an L at the top of your page once a critical task has been on your power list for 21 days straight
00:14:11.980 it has been completed for all 21 days in a row it's considered a new habit and you will need to
00:14:18.300 remove that from your power list and replace it with a new critical task remember like I said this is
00:14:24.260 where most people fuck the whole thing up right the goal here is to get a win every day when you
00:14:30.500 create a habit of winning it creates a new character trait in you which is winning you create a situation
00:14:37.500 where you don't doubt yourself anymore you don't not trust yourself anymore you don't see yourself as a
00:14:43.080 fraud anymore because you believe in yourself and you can go to the power list and flip through and see 0.98
00:14:48.440 that you're a fucking winner you can physically see it you can see the stack of wins it's big you 0.96
00:14:55.780 can see the stack of L's it's little guess what nobody wins every fucking day but the goal should 0.99
00:15:00.880 be how many days can I win in a row without having a loss okay and if you do that you're going to have
00:15:07.940 a powerful impactful and very successful 2018 guys my my wish for you I don't make money doing this
00:15:17.680 I do this because I want people to succeed I feel like there is not enough people out there
00:15:25.300 telling people the truth about what it takes to succeed everybody has a secret and they try to
00:15:31.640 to leverage their own success to sell you the secret and what do you find out you find out that it isn't
00:15:39.220 a secret it's just very simple it's one plus one equals two it's an equation do the work
00:15:46.640 be patient enough be consistent enough and guess what the results come and that's what I want you
00:15:52.740 to commit to in 2018 I want you to commit to understanding that you are in control you are
00:16:01.640 powerful and you are impactful if you develop the right system and guys I'm going to tell you this 0.86
00:16:07.920 is the right fucking system guys with that being said look I am so appreciative and so thankful for 0.76
