00:02:12.420
conversations and so we might jump around a little bit the important thing to know guys is that if
00:02:17.300
this is your first time listening you have to understand that being an entrepreneur having the
00:02:23.920
mindset of an entrepreneur becoming a motherfucking ceo is not just about owning a business it's about
00:02:29.160
how you live your life okay having an entrepreneurial mindset having a mindset of self-awareness of control
00:02:36.480
of confidence those things are valuable in any area of life so you might not be the guy owning the
00:02:43.400
mcdonald's right now you might be the motherfucker making french fries but the reality is is if you
00:02:47.920

00:02:54.560

00:04:38.520
saying because like i made a lot of mistakes and then played it off like oh dude i want to be
00:04:41.920
different no that's that it's real yeah so it's kind of weird because your name is jesus but then
00:04:46.340
you also go by zeus so you're all about being a god so much i'm actually i'm actually hard with uh
00:04:50.220
with uh where the dude's name is jesus it's uh it's it's diehard it's one of the diehard movies
00:04:56.360
it's gotta be a third one it's a conversation starter that's for sure yeah soon i tell somebody
00:04:59.820
my name is zeus you know it's a conversation they think they think you're saying hey zeus
00:05:03.680
yeah yeah but your name is jesus that's how it came about yeah no i'm kidding but uh anyways where
00:05:09.160
was i going oh so i got the the clothing company um i've seen you know minor success but really what
00:05:14.580
i've learned uh i've learned so much about finance about marketing about building a team there's just a ton of
00:05:19.640
shit that i've learned and i i paid for that in all the money that that i spent on it and you know
00:05:24.800
i wouldn't trade it for the world so i think actually going out and doing something is how
00:05:28.120
you're going to learn the most and i don't i don't regret it at all and i'm still doing that that
00:05:31.600
company so i got a question for you right i wrote it down let's see man he's getting right to business
00:05:36.880
i'm getting right to business yeah so in my opinion uh one of the most parts uh one of the most
00:05:40.720
important parts about being an entrepreneur and just growing yourself and being a better person is having
00:05:45.360
confidence i feel like people overlook that and they don't really know that if they had
00:05:49.460
confidence their relationships with other people would be that much more important and also if
00:05:53.160
they had confidence in what they're selling and in themselves they can sell themselves better and
00:05:57.040
sell their products better so how do you feel about confidence in having like that as a base as a
00:06:01.480
foundation how important is it to start when you're when you're you know you're maybe you're focusing on
00:06:06.840
like marketing or like connecting with people but you're not confident so how important is confidence
00:06:11.220
in yourself and in your product and if there was one tip that you can give the people listening what
00:06:16.460
would it be and something besides not giving a fuck because that that to me that's the most
00:06:20.640
important one but something besides that right so first of all guys i want to before i answer your
00:06:25.960
question i just want to point some things out this guy's starting young you know 19 years old
00:06:31.240
figuring out how to buy his own house a lot of you guys are emailing emailing emailing asking asking
00:06:37.240
asking listening listening listening and not doing fucking anything and the reality of the situation
00:06:42.320
is exactly what he said the money that he's invested that he's lost that he might not see a return on
00:06:48.560
is part of his education and that's how you have to look at your losses so i think that's an important
00:06:53.120
thing to point out is that look when you're a young person you're gonna fucking lose i mean i can't even
00:06:57.800
tell you how many times i've lost but at the end of the day you have to look at it as look that's my
00:07:04.800
education and entrepreneurship are my losses and so figuring that out at your age is an amazing thing
00:07:10.640
um now to answer the question about confidence the biggest problem with confidence and first of all
00:07:18.520
it's very important very very important uh you spent the day with me today i doubt you're gonna walk
00:07:23.540
away thinking i lack any fucking confidence right so uh but the problem with confidence there's two
00:07:30.360
folds one some people have none and the other spectrum is some people have way too much you know
00:07:36.520
they're arrogant and they don't understand humility and what that means so they have a hard time
00:07:41.000
balancing those two points now i want to address the first part um of not having any confidence first
00:07:46.900
because i feel like that's the problem with most people i feel like that's a much more common problem
00:07:52.340
is that even if people pretend to be confident they're not truly confident and you have to understand
00:07:57.580
first off is that confidence is not a god-given trait it's not something that god sends down from the
00:08:04.260
heavens and gives you uh like other certain things that you're born with in your personality some
00:08:09.660
people have a natural good sense of humor some people have other abilities you know everybody has
00:08:14.420
their own little skill set of what makes up their personality and confidence is not one of them
00:08:19.340
confidence is a skill that is cultivated through the process of doing things and becoming successful at
00:08:28.000
things so the problem that most people have with confidence and they say oh i don't have any
00:08:32.580
confidence to do this how do i do this they think that they have to have the confidence first and
00:08:38.800
you're never going to have the confidence first to pick up the phone and make a sales call or to go
00:08:43.580
see somebody dude my first sales experiences i was scared to death fucking terrified probably just like
00:08:49.400
you or anybody else but you know what i fucking knew that if i didn't do it i wasn't going to be able
00:08:54.520
to get where i wanted to be so i fucking did it so what you're saying is even if you don't have the
00:08:58.120
confidence as long as you have the balls to actually take action after you get it done and after you do it
00:09:02.040
right then the confidence comes right confidence comes as a result of those of those little bitty
00:09:07.300
victories that come along the way most people get paralyzed by the fact that they don't have much
00:09:11.680
confidence and they think there's something wrong with them there's something wrong with their
00:09:15.400
character i don't have much confidence i've never had much confidence well motherfucker i'm pretty
00:09:20.340
sure you don't have any confidence because you never fucking try to do anything so confidence
00:09:23.560
comes from being embarrassed i've heard that a million times and i guess that's what you're saying i mean
00:09:27.260
not just being embarrassed but understanding that you're going to win sometimes you're going to lose
00:09:32.020
sometimes and sometimes it is going to be embarrassing sometimes it's going to be awesome
00:09:35.040
but the reality of the situation is you're not going to fucking die you know what i mean so like
00:09:39.420
you you could go through and and step through and and find confidence through accomplishing little
00:09:44.200
things now is that important fuck yeah it's important because it's impossible to really sell
00:09:49.620
anything with if you're not confident in it it's impossible to sell yourself this comes down to your
00:09:54.800
relationships it comes down to everything in life dude if you're not confident in yourself the the
00:10:00.160
person that you want to be with in a personal relationship is not going to find you attractive
00:10:04.920
okay there's so many things that come from confidence so it's extremely important now on the flip side you
00:10:10.500
have these people who seem to have all kinds of confidence and they have these all all these
00:10:15.800
different things that say oh i'm confident and then you look at like why they're confident and you
00:10:19.680
can't find any fucking reason why they would be right they haven't done anything they haven't
00:10:22.920
accomplished anything they just seem to have this and that usually comes from ignorance they usually
00:10:28.420
have no fucking clue what they're doing and you know what there's sometimes there's value in that
00:10:33.160
because there's a lot of times i've done things or attempted things or try to do things when i had
00:10:37.480
no fucking business trying to do them and it ended up working out you know what i'm saying because i
00:10:42.200
didn't know any better so but it becomes a handicap when you start really like believing that you're the
00:10:48.640
shit when you're not and that's whenever the world is going to step right on your fucking
00:10:52.320
on your face you know what i mean and so you have to understand that you know being very confident
00:10:56.800
and being humble are are things that go together to create a winning recipe you know what i mean so
00:11:04.340
you could joke around like i joke around and all that shit but at the end of the day dude like i'm
00:11:08.860
always listening to people and trying to learn and figure out and get better and i think that's true
00:11:12.500
confidence when you feel like you don't have to prove yourself exactly to anyone because you're that
00:11:16.060
humble right and you don't so i mean uh you know you kind of have to figure out where where you are
00:11:21.220
on that scale and and you know become aware of that and and make adjustments you know to help
00:11:27.000
improve that if you need more confidence go out and try to do some more shit you know what i mean
00:11:31.180
because eventually you're not gonna be scared of it when you're not scared of it that gives you the
00:11:35.260
ability to go do it more and when you go do it more you get better and when you do get better
00:11:38.080
you start winning then you develop confidence so that's the answer solid as fuck thank you so much
00:11:42.900
yeah you're welcome thanks zeus all right up next oh canada we have britney michael chuck
00:11:47.580
who uh who's got a handful of things going on you've you've had a marketing company you also
00:11:53.660
uh have developed a uh and what is it bracelet company or a jewelry company and uh yeah you just
00:12:00.100
got just tell us tell us what's going on hey guys my name is britney michael chuck i am from calgary
00:12:05.040
alberta canada it's very cold there and uh yeah i started my bracelet business about seven months ago
00:12:11.380
and it started off as a charity project and um supply and demand it was super popular and so i
00:12:17.340
turned it into a little business i've been an entrepreneur since i was 12 years old and um yeah
00:12:21.860
i also have a relationship blog i love social media i'm very interested in uh growing social media
00:12:29.060
platforms for my clients and um yeah keeps me busy did you make that what you're wearing there no i
00:12:36.000
didn't i did bring my jewelry though but um i was checking out on your page it's cool thank you it's
00:12:41.880
uh i i love online like it's a way of connecting people from all around the world it's a way of
00:12:47.700
getting out your message and passionately pursuing what you want and being able to get a tribe behind
00:12:52.120
you so it's a powerful method when utilized properly so my question to you as an alpha male is what
00:12:58.860
are the secrets that you found to create a successful relationship in your life and how can
00:13:05.040
listeners out there be able to create successful relationships in their life as well um you're an
00:13:12.180
alpha male well i was actually going to address that right up front i think that people need to
00:13:18.420
first understand what alpha male means you know a lot of people have this idea that alpha male is like
00:13:23.920
you know this loud obnoxious you know boisterous dude who like wants to fight everybody that
00:13:33.100
fucking like comes around and like kick their ass that really has nothing to do with it um what really
00:13:38.960
has to do is with the presence that you portray and that comes from how you treat and respect other
00:13:45.760
people so it has much less to do with like being this big tough thing even though like i know on our
00:13:51.560
podcast like that's sort of how i present myself it really has nothing to do with that if you want
00:13:56.480
to be somebody who's a leader and you want to be somebody who's considered alpha it's much more about
00:14:01.260
how you respect and listen and value other people than it is about how you act uh because it's all about
00:14:06.740
how other people respond to you so you have to understand that um you know first off like you have to
00:14:15.180
realize that relationships from the viewpoint of social media are you know everything's not visible
00:14:23.240
so like a lot of people portray our relationship as this perfect fucking thing when in reality we
00:14:28.920
have our struggles too right we just don't we choose not to put them on the fucking internet for
00:14:33.320
people to see so like the same things that other people go through uh we go through as well and so i
00:14:38.840
think you know it's just important to understand that and i actually wrote about this uh a couple weeks
00:14:44.240
ago on facebook about how people publicize all all aspects of their relationship and that amplifies
00:14:51.060
the good and the bad times which creates for a more up and down situation that is really kind of hard to
00:14:57.280
live with um you know i think people uh when they look for a relationship partner i think you know that's
00:15:05.020
where we're going to start at you know they they look for things that are very fucking shallow they look
00:15:10.100
for things like you know pure looks or uh status instead of like compatibility and support and the
00:15:17.840
things that are going to matter after the first year of a relationship um which is natural right we
00:15:23.260
all have needs we want to like date somebody who looks good and we want to like it's kind of a status
00:15:27.420
thing you know you walk in with somebody you're proud of and that's all good and fine but at the
00:15:31.380
end of the day there's plenty of people that have those things that you can still connect with
00:15:34.840
on a personal level uh and i think people don't know how to do that in our society i think everything
00:15:40.620
is so quick now and so impersonal you know if you go text uh email social media i mean you have
00:15:47.420
fucking apps you know like tinder where it's just like hey i'm gonna go fuck this person and the reality
00:15:52.900
of of our society is it doesn't cultivate healthy relationships by the way it's set up so i think
00:15:59.860
you know becoming aware of the things that you need outside of like sex uh and physical attraction
00:16:05.880
are are the basis of what you should be looking for um as far as creating a good relationship at home
00:16:13.020
um i mean we i have a great relationship but the thing is is that you know we it started with a good
00:16:19.100
foundation so it wasn't like uh we met you know on a one-night stand or some shit like that we were
00:16:25.400
friends for five years first before we ever went out on one date so um you know i i don't know like
00:16:31.760
sometimes i feel like i just got lucky with that you know sometimes i feel like i know what i'm doing
00:16:36.520
sometimes i don't know what the fuck i'm doing so i don't know andy do you think that most people
00:16:40.960
don't even think that there's a connection between their their relationship with their significant other
00:16:46.380
and their success in business i think most people see them as two completely disconnected things
00:16:51.980
when in reality everything depends on what energy you have either taking away or contributing to you
00:16:57.980
and i can tell you this that building a company or becoming successful or making a lot of money
00:17:01.840
all those things require a tremendous amount of energy and if you're not getting that kind of energy at
00:17:05.900
home and you're spending that energy dealing with something that doesn't work in a relationship area
00:17:10.540
you're not going to have the energy you need to put into what it is over here so it's absolutely
00:17:15.660
connected and anybody who's successful will tell you that um but it's not something that
00:17:21.860
people think about it i think i think they think of it as two different things they think of it as
00:17:24.860
my personal life my business life but at the end of the day those things definitely contribute or take
00:17:31.420
away from each other on on an every everyday basis you know like let's say you have a bad day at work
00:17:37.320
and then all of a sudden you go home and get nagged on top of it you know what i'm saying it's
00:17:41.200
gonna suck everything creative out of you every day and that's how most people live dude most people
00:17:46.300
have terrible day at work then they go home and they get in a fight with their fucking wife or
00:17:50.500
they're this or that because they don't have as much money as they want or they don't have this
00:17:54.360
that they want and the reason they don't have this is because they're spending their time at home
00:17:57.900
wasting all their energy in this fucking relationship that doesn't serve them
00:18:01.000
you know and on top of that i feel like a lot of people are way too loyal to uh to relationships that
00:18:08.000
are not serving of themselves interesting yeah i feel like a lot of people are they they will meet
00:18:15.060
let's say at 25 years old they'll date and then they think because they're with somebody for three
00:18:22.000
years they have to get married and instead of thinking like okay well are things getting better
00:18:26.400
are they getting worse is it serving me is it not serving me and they say oh well you know what
00:18:30.740
everybody thinks we should get married so they get fucking married and then they go down the path of
00:18:34.440
the whole cycle you know they have some kids they get more in debt they have less money they start
00:18:39.160
fighting over money they get fucking divorced and they don't know what the fuck just happened
00:18:43.680
you know and i think a biggest problem with relationships is that people live to other
00:18:47.900
people's expectations or society's expectations versus what is good or bad for them personally
00:18:53.160
so i don't know if that answers the question you talked about the importance generally speaking of
00:18:57.500
of connecting with somebody who is what you would call a good person but if you could identify
00:19:01.620
one indispensable character quality like if this person doesn't have this
00:19:07.940
i would say the person being a giver as opposed to a taker you know you want to be with somebody
00:19:16.680
who's going to contribute uh and help and and push and instead of like be an anchor in your
00:19:24.040
fucking boat and uh and i think you know to get that you've got to you've got to be that you know so
00:19:31.300
many people want that without being that and you know it's hard to have a relationship the point of
00:19:38.400
a relationship is to make you better right like it's not just because you're supposed to fucking
00:19:42.920
do be in a relationship it's it's supposed to make you better it's not supposed to be this thing
00:19:47.260
that's so fucking hard that drives you crazy i mean if that's the relationship you're in you
00:19:52.000
probably shouldn't be in it i mean you know what i'm saying so like i don't know i think you know
00:19:57.400
let's let's remember the purpose of a relationship what's the purpose the purpose is that it should
00:20:01.800
make your life better enhance you challenge you push you right so what you know what the fuck are
00:20:09.760
most people doing in these relationships whenever they're bitching on facebook about how fucking
00:20:13.580
miserable they are you know i don't know all right thank you britney thanks guys and feel free
00:20:20.260
to add me on instagram my instagram is britney michael chuck b-r-i-t-t-a-n-y-m-i-c-h-a-l-c-h-u-k
00:20:27.380
thank you so much thank you all right up next we have a very unenthusiastic unenergetic
00:20:32.860
doctor of chiropractor from uh from uh san diego california dr mike wassillison
00:20:41.200
hey if you've got back pain he's got your back right kind of you know what i i used to say i've
00:20:48.020
got your back but the truth is is if you discover it for yourself it's much more powerful than me
00:20:52.500
having your back yeah so he's got your front too he's got your remove that yeah yeah we were
00:20:58.080
talking about fucking looking he's got your front we were hey we were dr mike is a really interesting
00:21:06.480
guy we were talking about pelvic range earlier i could talk about that all day yeah well so what
00:21:12.980
you are the impaler i am the you must be the king of pelvic range you know what he told me tell him
00:21:17.040
what you told me about my about my uh what you noticed about my well von told me he was he said
00:21:21.780
that he had back pain but he thought it was because the food he was eating is causing inflammation and
00:21:26.720
what i asked you then why would that inflammation go to your back right and just watching von walk he's
00:21:31.780
in forward tilt meaning he's got a lot forward tilt he's got a lot of curve in his back it means
00:21:35.860
you have a tough time doing that midnight move von which is where you tuck the hips under you get up in
00:21:40.560
there there's some room for improvement in there sorry honey but what that does von is is when you're
00:21:49.840
in that forward tilt it puts inflammation your joints and maybe you your back is right below that
00:21:54.520
tipping point of pain and you just eat something shitty and then it just takes you over the tipping
00:21:57.980
point but i think that's when you have back pain that is the cause yeah i don't think it's bad
00:22:02.080
enough to do anything he's been calling me the impaler for the last two years and i think his words
00:22:05.800
are exercising vaughn vaughn's a fucking hypochondriac like this is vaughn here's vaughn you go to dinner
00:22:11.480
with him and he's like oh i don't want to eat that sugar blah blah blah because it'll make me
00:22:15.340
inflamed but yeah he'll drink fucking five drinks with 15 fucking sugars each of them i think i noticed
00:22:20.700
that actually oh i can't have that creme brulee because i'll have on i'll have to go and take a
00:22:25.080
fucking nap but but but but i could but i but bring me another fucking vodka and sprite you know
00:22:32.420
get the fuck out of here man that's right you're a hypocrite with that a little bit all right he
00:22:36.220
thinks he thinks that like he's gonna he thinks he's gonna eat something he's gonna fucking like
00:22:39.860
like eat like gluten allergy whatever he's got everything this motherfucker was allergic to like
00:22:45.560
fucking air i'm pretty sure so anyway oh my well andy if i could start off first of all by saying
00:22:53.200
dude you've changed my life and i do it from the bottom of my heart man thank you i appreciate
00:22:58.320
you've helped me i realized what a pussy i'd become with speaking to my patients and people
00:23:02.840
i didn't want it i didn't think they want to hear the truth about if someone's in chronic pain i didn't
00:23:06.320
think they want to hear it so i delivered them this watered down version all that did was is is
00:23:10.920
probably push them off to some other doctor dude yeah it may i was in quick fix mentality you help
00:23:16.260
me understand you help remove those barriers so i can deliver to them the unfiltered truth about what
00:23:21.440
it really takes to get out of pain and get back to an active life and i and now that message that
00:23:25.560
you've helped this transpired through me from you i'm helping tens of thousands of people and we've
00:23:30.460
created a fucking movement because of it that's so i feel dude yeah tell people you're social because

we teach people through through entertainment i want i want before you get on this i want you guys to
00:23:52.380

00:23:58.040
something that is boring yeah it's fucking boring fucking lame yeah and making it fun and exciting
00:24:03.980
in a unique way that i've never seen somebody do the people are lame is that's what it was it wasn't
00:24:08.360
the information yeah yeah well i mean dude you know i don't know like i got a back pain it's it's not
00:24:13.480
that exciting but the point is is that you're taking a lot of these people will write in and be like
00:24:17.420
dude i do this and how do i make that interesting well they should follow you because you're taking
00:24:21.800
something that isn't that interesting and making interesting and that's a huge compliment because
00:24:26.000
i enjoy following you thank you dude i said before when andy gives me a little like i'm like oh andy
00:24:30.260
liked that one but um but yeah we teach people through people always describe us as entertaining
00:24:37.960
and educational right and we teach people simple techniques how to improve their posture
00:24:41.420
how to eliminate pain and how to ultimately really it is how to live an awesome and active life
00:24:48.520
because people get the medical system here's what's happened is i've been in this profession
00:24:52.880
for 17 years the medical profession pounds you down for your pain you've got this disease you've
00:24:57.120
got degenerative disc you've got this and i got so fucking tired of it last year of hearing it and
00:25:01.540
i didn't say i looked around nobody else was making a stand for it right nobody right everybody in the
00:25:06.220
little local levels but that's not going to do the job right not when the medical industry
00:25:09.680
owns back pain right they don't deserve to own it and with move you that's when i stepped up
00:25:14.660
because gandhi says be the change you want to see in the world so i fucking stepped up to it and
00:25:19.340
it took some and that leads me to the question i got for you too okay and so there was a turning
00:25:26.420
point that happened right and i'm sure you hear this i hear will smith talking about it third circle
00:25:29.980
theory talks i'm moving from circle one to two but there's this point of time that happens where
00:25:35.240
this kept for me this cascade of events happen between listening to you mentors being fed up that led
00:25:42.880
to me going that's it i chose to make a stand for something i stand to deliver the authentic truth
00:25:49.500
and to guide people out of pain back to an active life now my question to you and all the listeners
00:25:55.000
out there i know they're looking for that breakthrough and transformation so what have you found with
00:25:59.000
yourself and other people that have had these transformations what are the events or what events
00:26:04.760
have you found that have led up to that day that point of time where they go oh my god they've
00:26:09.520
chose a life now of purpose and not pleasure well that's an awesome question and i think you answered
00:26:15.880
it with the way you presented the question if you're listening carefully enough you know you said
00:26:20.960
that you were fucking fed up with the way that things were are you were you were pissed off you got to a
00:26:27.180
point where you're just not willing to accept you know the way things were in your industry anymore
00:26:32.760
and you took it upon yourself to make that change and that's what it takes man it doesn't matter if
00:26:38.980
it's fitness business your relationship it doesn't matter you've got to get to a point where you're
00:26:44.120
just fucking tired of it and you're fed up with it and you're not willing to accept any more of
00:26:48.640
whatever it is that is driving you to feel that way and people will put band-aids on things right
00:26:55.060
they'll make excuses for things and when things are irritating them or pissing them off they'll they'll
00:27:00.340
instead turn the blame on themselves well there's something wrong with me or i'm irritable or i ate
00:27:05.260
that sugar drink at the fucking bar you made me have an allergic drink right he did too right people
00:27:10.320
will make these fucking excuses for why they feel this way instead of saying no motherfucker that shit
00:27:15.840
is fucked up and i need to fix it and you know what that's when the change happens when you're so
00:27:21.660
tired of the way things are that you say dude i've had literally enough i'm not going to go one more
00:27:28.160
fucking second doing this this way and that's it and it's like you see this with people with diets a
00:27:35.500
lot like on fitness you know they'll say oh i'm gonna start monday and it's fucking tuesday of the
00:27:39.560
previous week like motherfucker you should start right fucking now you know what i'm saying don't
00:27:44.760
wait for x you know after this weekend or after this or after that dude taking action right now is one
00:27:52.340
the most powerful fucking things you can do to start creating momentum and so you know people
00:27:58.720
are conditioned to come up with these ideas that like why they can't do it like you took initiative
00:28:04.180
to change the things that you were upset about most people won't do that they won't take initiative they
00:28:09.220
think that someone has to come around and qualify them to do that no if you see something that's
00:28:15.580
bothering you or you are upset with something whether it be in the world or whether it be with
00:28:20.480
yourself or whether it be with whatever situation you're in you have an obligation to start fixing it
00:28:27.500
right now because that's where your purpose is going to come from you just don't fucking see it yet
00:28:32.700
every single great person out there who's ever accomplished you know anything they didn't start
00:28:38.940
with this great wonderful fucking feeling like oh i'm so happy that i'm gonna go out and try no they
00:28:44.860
started fucking pissed off because they were sick of the way things were and they said dude this has got
00:28:50.020
to change if you think of any political movement any government any fucking discovery any cure any
00:28:56.460
invention it started with that feeling like dude this is fucking bullshit and they went on to fucking
00:29:02.520
become great and so dude getting to that point where you are so irritated and so fed up is a good thing
00:29:09.160
you don't make excuses for that you look at that as a benefit as to how i'm gonna be productive
00:29:14.880
and instead of like sulking and being mad and being upset about it you use it as a pivot to act
00:29:21.600
and that's where great things are born damn the similarities you said like if some i got so
00:29:27.460
fucking if i'm like if i see one more unnecessary back surgery right one more but then you know what
00:29:32.980
happens now is these people the same emotions you're saying when people feel like with pain when they
00:29:38.120
when they hit a point of frustration feeling hopeless or fearful i go that's awesome you're ready to
00:29:42.740
fucking do something about it exactly you're ready you can use that to get your head above water and
00:29:46.840
your feet there the same damn principles that you teach can you apply to what i do right dude you
00:29:52.220
apply to anybody anybody in this room anybody listening anybody that's how you get there is by
00:29:58.020
finding out what bothers you and doing something about it it's that simple that's a good question
00:30:05.020
nice yeah awesome thank you just ramp up the ramp up the enthusiasm and von honestly thank you for
00:30:10.460
being an awesome host and you i you're seriously von you are awesome now von he comes off proper but
00:30:16.100
he he'll spin out with these random acts of hilarity out of nowhere yeah he tries to act like he's all
00:30:22.220
goody-goody on the podcast right do not try to act like i'm goody-goody i'm genuinely trying to be a
00:30:29.320
good person yeah it's just that the bad stuff comes out of me every now and then you know i think
00:30:33.540
every listener knows that you're a good person at heart thank you i appreciate it i appreciate it
00:30:37.440
okay next up we have joshua i can't talk today joshua rockwood uh josh is from the kind of albany
00:30:46.200
area of new york and he uh he has a great story uh i'm gonna let you tell most of it but basically
00:30:51.660
this guy's in the beef business right i'm in the meat business that's for sure yeah so my wife and i
00:30:58.160
own a company called west wind acres you can find us on instagram west underscore wind underscore acres
00:31:05.200
we started our farm kind of as a passion to uh there was a need for my cholesterol to lower and
00:31:14.020
i didn't want to go on statins at 24 years old for the rest of my life so we found through a little
00:31:19.700
research that if we raised animals properly they give us healthier meat and over the years it's become
00:31:25.740
a passion uh now we're up to around 200 acres we're hoping to hit 400 acres this year where we can
00:31:31.000
hopefully feed about 400 families that's badass man uh so our goal uh over the next couple years is
00:31:38.480
to take the farm from baby animals right to plate in every aspect and that's kind of what my question
00:31:44.860
is uh at what point in a business is it time to make that step it's an integral step to go to you know
00:31:53.880
to start butchering or start slaughtering our own animals but it's also taking on additional
00:31:59.060
risk additional labor additional work you're gonna have to invest some money invest a ton of money as
00:32:05.680
well so i think if you ask 20 people this question that you're gonna get 20 different answers so what
00:32:10.920
i'm gonna do is kind of let you know when i knew okay um it's all about what your goals are okay and
00:32:19.940
if you're thinking big picture if you're thinking long term if you're thinking 10 20 years down the
00:32:24.760
road which i think you are yeah um it makes sense to do that as soon as you possibly can because even
00:32:30.920
though you're going to invest the money up front you're going to make the profit margins on the
00:32:35.960
back end better and vertically integrate yourself so that you can produce more and make more money in
00:32:41.700
your business and um a lot of people will get to a point where they will be able to afford to
00:32:49.680
vertically integrate their business to to take another step in in in the process um
00:32:55.480
but they haven't made very much money for so long that they like are like oh man now i'm making money
00:33:01.620
so i don't you know i don't want to invest even more right because they get tired of being broke it's
00:33:06.440
right scary to stay broke to right right right to look at the long but i can tell you from my
00:33:09.960
from my situation um just ripping the band-aid off all at once was probably the best thing that i ever
00:33:17.040
did and just continue to invest invest invest because now we have a legitimate foundation
00:33:21.740
that we could stand on very solidly and and make a very profitable business from um and i the little
00:33:29.640
bit i know about you uh i think you know the sooner the better for what you guys are trying to do
00:33:35.180
and just kind of like suck it up and fucking deal with it you know what i mean yeah and and just keep
00:33:40.160
going uh but if you ask other people you know you're going to get different answers some guys are going
00:33:44.560
to tell you you know oh you know recoup some of the money and then do it i don't agree with that
00:33:50.000
because if you recoup some of the money and then do it you'll get comfortable and you won't fucking do
00:33:53.920
it yeah i'm afraid of that right so just stay uncomfortable go as hard as you can go in and
00:33:59.700
and it'll work out because i know you're going to make it work so that that would be my recommendation
00:34:03.880
absolutely so i think that i think that people fuck up by not going all in on their growth and
00:34:10.660
their in their in their infrastructure from the beginning um i noticed that a lot in our industry
00:34:15.200
you know there's a lot of guys out there that don't do any manufacturing they don't do any of
00:34:19.140
their marketing they don't do they outsource everything and then what do they end up really
00:34:23.000
having you have nothing you have a fucking label and a logo um and it just takes more than that to
00:34:28.820
build a brand so i think for what you're doing you're building a real brand and what you guys uh
00:34:34.020
what your goals are i just think the sooner the better for you guys awesome thank you yeah you're
00:34:38.520
welcome so for the sake of time we don't have uh enough minutes to uh to go into the the real
00:34:45.660
trial that you faced josh but i i think it would be uh important josh basically faced this brutal
00:34:51.660
brutal trial and this brutal uh difficulty um that took about 18 18 months to reconcile it involved
00:34:59.080
legal stuff some unfair um charges and andy you made a point earlier when we were talking about this
00:35:05.620
that um without wanting to minimize the seriousness with which you know he was facing that trial you
00:35:12.400
said everybody's going to face the trial well look here's where i just set the so we were sitting
00:35:18.000
around talking getting to know each other earlier today we sat around for two two hours or so talked
00:35:22.660
just you know had some good entrepreneurial conversation um and we went around the table and
00:35:29.440
everybody kind of told me their story and everybody was you know sort of saying their challenges like oh
00:35:36.000
i'm having this issue or oh i had this issue with this and this is why this didn't work out or oh this
00:35:41.280
and and uh you know josh's story was definitely a very uh difficult obstacle to overcome uh he had a
00:35:51.320
situation where his his farm was actually seized quote unquote stolen uh from him for 18 months and he had
00:35:58.540
to keep the business going and um you know we got around to like the end of of the group and and i
00:36:05.480
just kind of like you asked me what i thought the theme was the theme was hey this is what we fucking
00:36:10.080
deal with as entrepreneurs you know every day is going to be a fight every day we're going to have a
00:36:14.960
new story every day we're going to have a new challenge and there isn't a day that i wake up
00:36:18.940
and and expect to have a day with no fucking bullshit it's just part of what we sign up to do
00:36:24.700
so you know instead of like being the person who's always saying you know oh why me why is
00:36:29.960
this so fucking hard dude just expect it to be hard then it's then it's then it's not that much
00:36:34.540
to deal with right you know if you expect it to be hard you can look at it and find find the
00:36:38.860
challenge figure out how to fix the challenge like what's today's what's today's game going to be
00:36:43.480
yeah well what good can we find in this yes how can we move forward yeah and what can i learn from
00:36:47.860
it exactly and and i think people really get fucked up in entrepreneurship because
00:36:51.700
they have a hard time and then they look at it and they say oh well it must be me i must not be
00:36:56.640
a good entrepreneur this must not be for me when in reality no dude it's fucking hard it's hard for
00:37:02.680
everybody like dude every and like look i don't expect all the fucking entrepreneurial gurus out
00:37:07.340
there to tell you this shit because their egos are fucking gigantic but look it's hard as fuck for me
00:37:12.100
man like it's hard there's not a day that goes by that i have it fucking easy you know what i'm saying
00:37:17.120
like and so if i don't have a fucking easy why the fuck do you think you should have it easy too
00:37:22.660
you know it's it's hard for all of us you know and i think overcoming these battles is what
00:37:27.720
ultimately is going to make you a very successful entrepreneur 10 15 years from now when you've got
00:37:33.840
the fucking you know the the market that you're wanting to take a chunk out of fucking locked down
00:37:38.900
you know what i mean so it's all part of like jesus said it's part of the education process
00:37:43.940
you know and it's not always fun but you know when you start expecting it to be hard
00:37:49.200
then it's not as bad like if you you know it's like like you know when when you expect to get
00:37:55.560
your ass kicked every day after a while you just kind of get used to it yeah you're ready for it
00:37:59.780
right you can take it on right exactly that's really what what's drawn me into the podcast is
00:38:05.040
you know yeah you tell it as it is you you teach us how to find the good and all that it doesn't do
00:38:10.380
any service to anybody listening to sit here and be like oh yeah it's so fucking easy for me
00:38:14.440
because i'm so good at this and then they go home and get their fucking nuts kicked in and then think
00:38:19.640
badly of themselves right like what good is that providing i don't do this for money i do this to
00:38:24.840
fucking help people and like you guys have to understand there's two sides of this a lot of
00:38:29.460
you motherfuckers aren't entrepreneurs i'm not talking to you i'm talking to people listening
00:38:32.360
you guys are entrepreneurs i'm just saying there's a lot of motherfuckers listening that aren't
00:38:37.760
true entrepreneurs you know and there's also a lot of people that are true entrepreneurs but
00:38:42.520
are getting their nuts kicked in thinking that maybe i don't have what it takes you know and
00:38:47.220
dude i fucking thought that for a long time dude i used to always think about it like this
00:38:50.720
and this is why i always use the the magic success fairy uh analogy that if you listen to the podcast
00:38:56.560
you know i say that a lot um because i used to think of success as like this thing that was like
00:39:02.000
granted like dude i wonder if i'm going to be fortunate enough to be one of these people or
00:39:07.880
be lucky enough to be one of these people that you know gets to live this kind of life and make
00:39:11.460
this kind of money and do these kind of things and that's how i used to think of it like i wonder if
00:39:15.400
like if i'm going to get selected like it was a fucking lottery and you know only once you've
00:39:20.420
i mean do you ever think like that i try not to i know but like actually like honestly
00:39:26.600
naturally right like you guys are all shaking your head yes you know i think we all think that
00:39:31.300
when we're when we're trying to build something we're like man i wonder if i'm gonna be that guy
00:39:35.700
and i think once you get to a certain level you start to understand that it's not about that it's
00:39:42.340
about doing the work it's about connecting the a and the b to equal the c and it's hard to it's hard
00:39:49.700
to believe that when you're young and starting out and just getting it going and not quite where you
00:39:55.020
want to be and you're constantly getting beat up and you're constantly going through these struggles
00:39:58.760
it's hard to to see that it is really just an equation of fucking math versus this magic thing
00:40:05.540
but like you have to trust that when i tell you and i'm speaking to you guys listening right now
00:40:10.200
when i tell you guys it's that simple it really is that simple it's just a matter of doing the work
00:40:15.780
learning from your mistakes and continuing to move down the path and eventually you're going to
00:40:20.180
have built something the luck comes in where you get up that morning you don't want to you make
00:40:24.760
that 11th call when you're only gonna make 10 yeah you know right but those connections but
00:40:29.080
that's not really luck that's just your it's the hard work that's the intestinal fortitude that
00:40:33.300
you're willing to fucking display into your craft and other people see that as luck but they don't see
00:40:39.600
that shit right they see that shit like they only see like oh the farm grew from 200 to 400 acres
00:40:44.880
now it's a thousand acres now it's 10 000 acres oh man he really got fucking lucky at what he did
00:40:49.500
no motherfucker this dude didn't fucking sleep for 10 fucking years you know what i'm saying you
00:40:54.380
don't people don't see that shit so they believe in the luck because that's the stories we're told
00:40:59.080
we're told the glorifications of fucking entrepreneurship we're told the overnight
00:41:04.900
successes we're told the stories of the kardashians the people who are fucking really what i mean what
00:41:11.060
the fuck do they really do that make millions of dollars you know what i mean that's what we're told
00:41:14.940
we're not told like the stories of of joshua rockwood you know who's fucking had false uh
00:41:23.000
accusations on animal abuse and had his whole farm fucking shut down basically for 18 months
00:41:27.940
and had to fight the legal system to get it back you you know and then 10 years later he builds this
00:41:33.180
awesome successful fucking cup you aren't told that shit because you know what people don't want to hear
00:41:39.520
it because that shit's hard and they don't want to believe that it's hard they want to believe that
00:41:43.060
they're going to hit the fucking grand slam to win the game in the bottom of the ninth and be the
00:41:47.300
fucking hero and that's not the way it works for for 99.9 percent of us right josh the coolest thing
00:41:53.900
about your story that you told me was that just at the time that you that all this stuff was going
00:41:58.460
down we had the very first episode of the mfco project you came across that episode the very first
00:42:04.840
episode we ever had was andy talking about the power of perspective and how you to be an
00:42:10.080
entrepreneur and to be successful in life in general you have to be able to see the good in
00:42:14.300
the bad and uh so that's that's exciting that that podcast just changed my changed my outlook on the
00:42:20.540
whole situation and we were able to to turn it around uh you know get a couple thousand extra
00:42:25.740
facebook followers and and really get some support for your cause get the support for the cause
00:42:30.000
yeah okay so our fifth and final entrepreneur's name is nicholas otherwise known as niko kaufman out
00:42:35.940
from the pacific midwest the communist center what the fuck is the pacific midwest what what is that
00:42:41.180
midwest i'm sorry pacific northwest the communist center of the united states of america but i'm
00:42:46.560
sure you're out there fighting a good fight so niko you're involved in a very unglamorous business
00:42:51.100
but you're killing it so i'll let you take it away realistically in my eyes what i do it is kind
00:42:56.420
of glamorous um i started a pressure washing company it's a long story essentially i started working
00:43:03.460
for this guy and i felt like he was just stepping on my throat every fucking day being like i know
00:43:09.420
you're good but i don't ever want to see you do better than me and uh you know so i took it upon
00:43:14.260
myself that i was like you know what fuck it i'm just gonna start my own and uh i took the my final
00:43:21.540
paycheck from him which was like i think like 250 bucks and paid my car insurance about a month late
00:43:27.880
so i could hop on the good old craigslist find what i thought was the best equipment for the money
00:43:33.300
and i was gonna go all in we were doing uh car dealerships washing down all their inventory
00:43:37.820
and i was all about it registered my company bought the equipment that i needed at the bare minimum just
00:43:44.780
to get by and then i went i can't do this on my own and since i had just started it was hard for me to
00:43:52.360
get people i like working at night you ever been to a car dealership during the day it's fucking insane
00:43:56.840
with people running around driving around all over the place so that that was my first wall and i was
00:44:02.980
i was like i'm fucked and then i was like no i gotta do it you know i gotta do something at the time my
00:44:10.240
girlfriend was about three months pregnant and i'm sitting over here we were we were piss poor we
00:44:14.380
barely had a pot to piss in and your back was against the wall back was against the wall and
00:44:20.100
realistically i look back now and that was probably one of the most exhilarating times that i ever had
00:44:26.100
doing it because i didn't have money for anything so it was literally going door to door after i'd
00:44:31.720
worked about 6 30 a.m i'm a service manager at an auto repair shop and uh go to work 6 30 in the
00:44:39.020
morning take like a 30 minute lunch i you know he encourages an hour i took a shorter one so i could
00:44:45.020
get out of there earlier so that way i had more time to hit the pavement and literally go door to door
00:44:49.320
different neighborhoods throughout town knocking on people's doors right introducing myself to people
00:44:55.160
introducing my services what i could do trying to make friends and it that was probably one of the
00:45:00.360
hardest things i ever did because you had some people that were super super cool welcoming into
00:45:04.260
the house like oh you want like a glass of iced tea or anything like that after i had been done
00:45:07.920
working for them some people would pay me a little bit more and then i'd have people that would just
00:45:11.440
literally slam the door in my face and tell me to fuck off yeah man to go get a real job yeah and i'm
00:45:16.240
like what's your real job because i guarantee you the person that you work for at some point did
00:45:22.140
something similar to what i was doing to start my company no question so what can i help you with
00:45:28.220
so my deal is we've talked you know you got bracelets you can you know hop on the internet
00:45:35.680
buy it ship it anywhere me you know mike with his back painting it's all online like that man over
00:45:42.760
there is just like revolutionizing like i i'd say medical attention not a practice essentially it's
00:45:50.780
so for me it's if you're doing a labor intensive job where i can't you know i can't throw my shit
00:45:57.500
on a plane i can't hop in the truck and drive out to st louis right for a job how how important is
00:46:05.920
social media for the people that are essentially for the time being service jobs because service jobs
00:46:14.780
labor jobs right essentially almost stuck in an area until they have the capital to grow
00:46:20.360
and move so i i dude i think that's a good question because i think a lot of people
00:46:25.260
um who are in the trades so to speak like painting construction uh you know power washing like you
00:46:33.440
are they they don't quite understand how to utilize social to grow their their their business and
00:46:40.320
um nobody's really doing it right now in those in those areas and
00:46:46.380
you have to understand that we are in we are in a time where we can literally target neighborhoods
00:46:56.420
with facebook ads about whatever service that we do and you're in a good position because
00:47:03.680
while you might not be doing it yet neither is anybody else and so if you're the first guy that
00:47:10.640
does power washing that can figure out how to scale his business through facebook ads and grow
00:47:16.220
business through facebook because that's where the attention is that's where people are watching
00:47:20.740
that's where we spend all of our time we don't watch tv we don't listen to the radio we're not reading
00:47:25.480
the fucking newspaper anymore no we're on facebook 24 hours fucking day and if you could figure out how
00:47:32.060
to target your little neighborhoods and get people to purchase your product and you could build a
00:47:36.960
customer base that way you could leverage that into word of mouth you know you can use people
00:47:41.900
you could do such a great job for people so they rep they they that your advertising expense becomes
00:47:47.200
exponential all right and your results become uh you know so much better than what it costs to get
00:47:54.380
and by the way facebook is very cheap to do right now um that you could grow your company that way
00:48:00.220
and then you know you you get enough customers where you can't do them all yourself you hire another dude
00:48:04.780
you know you have him fucking do it you reinvest and grow your company and and you know i think the
00:48:10.000
idea that what you guys have to understand if you're in that sort of service business is that
00:48:14.760
you know start some pick somewhere to start a neighbor of geographical location and build outward
00:48:21.200
you know go out from there like a like a like a radiating target all right you know start very focused
00:48:28.200
as you get bigger you can hire more people and you can start to go in other areas but the point of it
00:48:33.940
of starting in a radiating focus is also it's not just hey let's start in this neighborhood but
00:48:40.280
you know it cuts down your travel time it cuts down your expenses it cuts down if you can get 10 jobs in
00:48:45.200
the same neighborhood now all of a sudden you know you're you're building a network of of customers that
00:48:50.880
are all in the same area and dude it's just a strategic battle plan so to speak about how to grow your
00:48:56.260
business um the answer to your question is social is highly underutilized for your kind of business
00:49:02.620
you know and people who are in those kind of businesses uh power washing construction uh doing
00:49:09.600
any kind of labor or service painting you know you guys aren't utilizing social at all and if you do
00:49:18.260
you're you're you're basically have a facebook page for your company that's not what i'm talking about
00:49:23.560
i'm talking about figuring out how to fucking run facebook ads targeted at certain clientele that are
00:49:29.340
very very cheap to run and they're going to be extremely cheap for you guys because other people
00:49:34.240
in your business are not doing it most of the guys that do that kind of work aren't they're not
00:49:40.940
entrepreneurial minded they're guys that do that work and they happen to have a business and if that's
00:49:45.800
you you need to start thinking like an entrepreneur so that you can scale your business up to be a real
00:49:50.680
company one day and i mean to me uh you're you're in the best possible opportunity that you could ever
00:49:58.920
have because up until the last three or four years where facebook ads became relevant how the fuck could
00:50:05.320
one guy who owned some power washing equipment afford to advertise on tv or radio you couldn't do it it
00:50:12.180
would be fucking impossible he can't so the biggest companies the biggest companies that have already
00:50:16.940
established themselves are going to be the ones that stay there because you can't get to that point
00:50:20.860
of actually running an effective campaign because it's too much money and because you don't have the
00:50:25.200
money you can't get the customers and because you can't get the customers you know you end up staying
00:50:29.660
in this little bitty cycle of of you know the two or three or five people that you might talk to
00:50:34.400
and the reality of business now is that you could take someone who is small and scale up very big
00:50:42.080
money against these bigger companies who are refusing to adapt and they're still spending their money
00:50:47.280
on tv on radio on print and you could beat the shit out of them very very quickly um so if i were you
00:50:56.340
and i was anybody listening in those kind of businesses i would learn how to fuck how to run facebook ads
00:51:01.240
and i'd become really fucking good at it and i would spend every fucking minute that you have learning how
00:51:05.480
to do that and do that you know until you scale your company where you want it to be
00:51:09.940
because we're in a time right now that it's the first time in history we've been able that the
00:51:14.140
little guy's been able to legitimately compete with the big guy when it comes to a service-based
00:51:18.560
uh labor-based type business you know you weren't able to do that 10 years ago now you can do that
00:51:24.920
so it's a it's really exciting time for for for guys like you and guys that are in those sorts of
00:51:30.080
businesses to scale because the big guys the guys who have been around for 20 years 30 years
00:51:34.740
they're still stuck they're not paying attention they're not paying attention they they have the
00:51:39.720
attitude of i'm the king we're the king those little guys are never going to get us and uh you
00:51:45.260
know we're going to keep spending our budget on the radio on tv and they don't have any need to like
00:51:49.600
adapt right and you're going to be able to you're going to be able to fucking adapt quickly and and and
00:51:57.400
out out place them in the market in a very short time period so it's it's very very exciting you
00:52:03.560
know that wasn't we weren't able to do that five years ago no not at all right so you're in a
00:52:09.120
situation that that i would be extremely excited about i yeah i can't even explain it it's just
00:52:15.820
like now i'm just like i mean i don't want to leave here but i'm like i got so much shit that i can do
00:52:20.680
today yeah i want to hit it hard like next week i'm like yeah all right it's time to make this my
00:52:28.020
bitch and yeah it's as hard as i can and if you're in the portland area and you listen to the ms ceo
00:52:33.660
project and you need your what is it your uh your house power services i do houses driveways i've got
00:52:40.460

especially portland but the whole northwest west coast it's gonna be huge and i'm getting ready to
00:52:52.820
you know drop some money and get this whole new setup because it's low pressure dot high pressure
00:52:58.800
because i don't feel like buying new roofs for hundreds of people i just want to help them make
00:53:03.820
their roofs look better last longer we're gonna guys find you on social my uh instagram i'm not
00:53:09.880

00:53:35.660
for being with us a couple things one uh listeners if you're not following andy by now you really need
00:53:40.880
to be following him i'm sure you are but just in case you aren't it's at andy frisella uh for pretty
00:53:45.160
much everything except for um snapchat is mfceo dash one and uh tyler's at my tyler m-a-i underscore
00:53:53.440
t-y-l-e-r and i'm at vaughn kohler for everything v-a-u-g-h-n-k-o-h-l-e-r three quick things one we're
00:54:01.120
still getting uh requests for um andy's favorite books we've actually put those together it's the
00:54:06.740
mfceo.com forward slash badass books that's his list and annotated bibliography of all well not all
00:54:14.220
of them but most of his favorite uh books that he recommends number two uh people are still asking
00:54:20.620
you know how how can i uh buy otis and charlie which is kind of a strange question go to amazon
00:54:25.780
and uh enter andy frisella and otis and charlie the book will come up and if you buy it please do
00:54:33.260
us a favor and write a review that really really helps a lot and book is selling really well so
00:54:39.180
thank you so much for that and then finally andy always says uh do us a favor by you know telling a
00:54:43.820
friend about us i just want to echo that and just say guys do us a favor help us to spread this
00:54:49.500
movement so many good things are happening so many lives are changed um tag your friends on
00:54:54.480
everything andy andy posts um email them do whatever you have to do but tell them about the
00:55:00.020
mfco project to so that we can expand the movement because good things are happening you want to be
00:55:04.700
part of it yeah i think that's i think that's something that that that needs to be expressed i don't
00:55:09.680
think we've hit on that in a while is that this is a movement you know the reason we do this shit
00:55:13.820
is to help cultivate the next generation of entrepreneurs um you know you guys listening
00:55:21.480
are mostly very like-minded people you're people who think the same way and we're usually the kind
00:55:27.780
of people who look at everybody else say what the fuck do they think that way um if we don't stand up
00:55:32.780
and and help spread the mentality that we have guess what's going to win the opposite mentality the
00:55:38.080
entitled the deserved the whining crying bitching shit that we're all tired of so uh you know be
00:55:44.020
proud of the way that you feel about things and the way you view the world and help bring other people
00:55:49.300
to this quote-unquote meeting place because uh we need to take the shit back um i also think it's
00:55:57.840
important to note you know guys these these guys that were here today are real people they're not people
00:56:03.280
you know that we set up to come in here as guests and i didn't know the questions that they were
00:56:07.760
going to ask and i'm sure that you have your own questions that you want to ask but it's important
00:56:13.260
to remember you know and i want to hit on this again i hit on this in the podcast entrepreneurship
00:56:19.000
is a hard thing it's a tough thing it's something that you're going to get punched in the mouth on a
00:56:23.300
daily basis and the obstacles that you're going to have they might be unique to you but you're not
00:56:29.620
the only motherfucker out there having issues you're not the person that's having uh this you know
00:56:35.000
the the sky isn't falling on you because you're you entrepreneurship is just that fucking hard
00:56:41.760
and so surrounding yourself and being around people who are also of that sort of lifestyle
00:56:47.600
is extremely important and not enough of you guys are doing that you're still trying to hang out with
00:56:52.020
your old crew with your old friends who have regular nine to five jobs and on top of you getting
00:56:57.320
punched in the face on uh your your journey every single day now you got to listen to these motherfuckers
00:57:02.380
tell you about how stupid you are for doing it so guys do yourselves a favor put good shit in your
00:57:07.920
head surround yourself with good people be around people who understand the journey you're on and it's
00:57:13.060
going to make your situation a lot more tolerable and a lot more fun so with that being said guys um
00:57:20.560
i appreciate you guys listening i'm excited for the things that we have coming up thank you so
00:57:25.000
much for all your support and we'll see you next time
