Guys, today, I've got some Thursday Thunder for you.
00:00:38.820
I see every day people with this mentality that the world owes them something.
00:00:47.160
And it's popular now to talk about entitlement and everybody deserves
00:00:53.000
and all these different things that people like to bitch and cry about.
00:00:58.140
But people come at life with the wrong attitude.
00:01:12.620
The world doesn't think you're special like your mom does.
00:01:16.360
It doesn't think you're a delicate little flower.
00:01:21.480
Now, with that being said, the world doesn't hate you.
00:01:29.700
And I see so many people going through their life with this overwhelming feeling of
00:01:35.860
either A, the world owes me something, or B, the world hates me.
00:01:44.160
And what's common amongst this group of people that I find is that, both these groups of people
00:01:50.200
that I find, is that they're missing the understanding of what it means to be successful.
00:01:58.540
And let me get at exactly what the cause of this is.
00:02:07.600
They're only worried about what they see in the mirror.
00:02:11.080
And they go around through their daily life trying to manipulate the world in a way that's
00:02:21.060
If that's the way you go through life, if you go through life trying to figure out a way
00:02:25.500
for the world to get you something, for you to be successful, you know, at the expense
00:02:32.440
of others, or for you to get ahead at the expense of others, your success or any success that
00:02:39.600
you're able to build or momentum you're able to build is going to be very short-lived, guys.
00:02:43.800
And that's not the right way to do things, okay?
00:02:46.840
That's why you see the same people, you know, who make money real fast lose money real fast.
00:02:52.600
That's why you see the same people who, you know, have a little bit of success and then
00:02:58.860
go back to the way they were and then they might find a new quote-unquote thing to do
00:03:03.780
and they make a little bit of money and they go back to the way they were.
00:03:06.940
And the problem with this mentality, guys, is that it's a mentality that is not of service, okay?
00:03:15.220
And if you want to be truly successful in life, you have to be selfless and you have to understand
00:03:21.880
that being selfless and being of service to other people is the only true way to find
00:03:31.440
If you're making a product, your product's got to serve other people.
00:03:36.460
If you're managing employees and you want to be a great leader, you've got to dedicate yourself
00:03:42.400
to the betterment of these people who are doing the frontline work of your company, okay?
00:03:48.460
If you want customers to love you, you have to give more than what you ask in return in
00:04:00.520
It's figuring out how you can help people with their problems and the better you become at
00:04:07.340
helping people with their problems and helping people find solutions to their problems, the
00:04:11.940
more fucking money is going to find its way into your fucking bank account, all right?
00:04:18.680
We talk about this earlier in earlier editions of my podcast where we talk about the morality
00:04:24.060
of money and we talk about how money is really made and it still shocks me how many people
00:04:29.920
go through life with a self-centered viewpoint of business, success, you know, money and all
00:04:37.420
these other things that we talk about, you know, generally on this podcast.
00:04:45.660
That's why you see people who are constantly hustling but never getting anywhere.
00:04:51.460
If you take a really good look at their motivations, it's because they're motivated on things that
00:04:56.680
are going to benefit them, not focused on things that are going to benefit others.
00:05:00.740
And guys, I know this sounds a little bit out there.
00:05:04.100
Like, you know, it sounds a little bit care bear, you know, care about others and others
00:05:08.600
will care about you, but it's a fundamental truth of the fucking universe, okay?
00:05:13.520
If you care about others, other people reciprocate and care about you, all right?
00:05:19.380
When you make a friend, you're going to make a fucking sale.
00:05:22.660
And you know what the best part about making a friend is versus making a customer is that
00:05:28.140
you can always lose a fucking customer, but you can never fucking lose a friend.
00:05:32.480
All right, guys, you have to focus on being of service.
00:05:40.760
The world doesn't care if, you know, who you are, what you do.
00:05:50.260
It's like, you're like a piece of fucking lint.
00:05:54.600
So quit going through life thinking the world owes you something because nobody fucking owes
00:05:59.560
And quit going through life, you other people, thinking that the world hates you.
00:06:09.800
Understand that success is an equation of math.
00:06:25.620
And once you accept that and once you eliminate all the fucking hocus pocus that all the other
00:06:30.300
motivational gurus and salespeople and fucking bullshitters and gypsies or whatever the fuck
00:06:36.080
is out there trying to sell you, then you're going to be on the right track.
00:06:39.940
You know, it's just too simple to accept that it's cause and effect, right?
00:06:44.080
It's too simple to accept that it's A plus B equals C or one plus one equals fucking two.
00:06:57.740
And if you can understand those two fucking points and accept them as truth and work them
00:07:03.000
as truth, there is no limit to how far you can go.
