00:00:00.000 Hey guys, what's up?
00:00:22.540 You're listening to the MFCEO Project.
00:00:24.760 I'm Andy, and I am the motherfucking CEO.
00:00:27.180 Hey, I'm going to throw you for a loop, and it's going to blow your mind.
00:00:31.220 But today, we're going to do Tuesday Thunder.
00:00:34.360 I know you're used to Thursday Thunder.
00:00:35.800 We're going to do Tuesday Thunder because I have something that I think is important
00:00:39.900 to talk about right now.
00:00:41.340 We have an agenda for this long podcast.
00:00:44.100 It's going to be an hour, but the reality is I've got something on my mind,
00:00:47.840 and I want to talk to you guys about it just off script real quick.
00:00:51.000 We have politics going full swing here in America.
00:00:54.340 You know, everywhere we look, it's Republican, Democrat, Hillary, Trump, whoever.
00:01:01.120 You know, it's this, that, and the other.
00:01:02.860 And I've been thinking a lot about our country.
00:01:04.780 You know, I just got back from speaking at the Revolution Tour with Sean Whalen
00:01:09.000 out at Park City, Utah at the Sundance Film Festival.
00:01:13.500 It was an awesome turnout.
00:01:14.840 There was a lot of people who identified themselves with Republicans.
00:01:17.760 There was a lot of people who identified themselves with Democrats.
00:01:20.120 And at the end of the night, guess what?
00:01:22.420 We all walked out of there, fucking Americans. 1.00
00:01:24.700 And that's what's got me thinking about all of this.
00:01:27.260 You know, the division of this country.
00:01:29.100 Why do we have it?
00:01:30.980 You know, what has America been in the past?
00:01:33.380 What is America now?
00:01:35.320 What will America be in the future?
00:01:38.140 And I think, you know, contrary to what some of the comments I make
00:01:42.480 and some of the bitching I do, because I do bitch a lot about, you know, 0.98
00:01:46.360 people ruining this country, so to speak,
00:01:50.440 I do still believe that America is a tremendous, great country.
00:01:55.820 At the heart of our country, there's a core group of people
00:01:58.360 who still hold the values that made America great.
00:02:02.500 They work hard.
00:02:03.620 They're good people.
00:02:04.640 They do the right thing.
00:02:05.960 They have character.
00:02:06.980 They make the most of the freedom we have.
00:02:09.920 And they are good fucking people who do great things
00:02:13.560 and inspire millions upon millions.
00:02:16.440 But here's the reality of the situation we're in now.
00:02:20.240 There's more and more people in this country who are total zeros.
00:02:23.860 They're lazy.
00:02:24.780 They make excuses.
00:02:26.100 They get offended when people speak the truth.
00:02:28.220 They do nothing.
00:02:29.260 And they want to feel good about themselves.
00:02:31.180 They want everything to be free.
00:02:32.680 And quite honestly, they're not good people.
00:02:35.680 The only thing they are great at is fucking everything up for the rest of us.
00:02:41.200 Those are the two groups in America.
00:02:43.200 So that's the conflict I see, okay?
00:02:46.520 That's the war I see.
00:02:48.020 It's not Democrat-Republican.
00:02:50.240 It's not right-left.
00:02:51.700 It's not black-white.
00:02:53.380 It's not traditional progressive.
00:02:55.720 It's not Donald versus Hillary, okay?
00:02:58.040 The real competition, the most important battle,
00:03:01.260 is between our country's winners and our country's losers.
00:03:04.540 Will the majority of America be fucking great?
00:03:08.040 Will they be committed to competition, hard work, achievement, success?
00:03:13.420 Or will the culture of America slide into underachievement,
00:03:17.580 excuse-making, bitching, whining, and laziness, 1.00
00:03:20.600 which seems to be the new trend now.
00:03:23.160 Just scroll your fucking Facebook feed.
00:03:26.080 I think a lot about this.
00:03:28.580 And here's the main thing.
00:03:30.280 Will the winners lose and the losers win?
00:03:34.600 And that's a scary thought because, you know, I don't have any kids right now.
00:03:38.600 I'm going to have kids, okay?
00:03:40.560 You probably have kids.
00:03:42.240 Maybe you don't.
00:03:42.960 But eventually, you're going to have to think about the world that they're brought up in.
00:03:47.040 And that question scares me.
00:03:48.620 Will the winners lose and the losers win?
00:03:50.860 And the answer is this.
00:03:53.500 It depends on you.
00:03:55.040 You can't control what somebody else does.
00:03:57.840 But you can take personal responsibility for your choices, for your actions,
00:04:03.260 for your work ethic, for your conduct, for your character,
00:04:06.540 for your commitment to excellence, and for your drive to be fucking great. 0.92
00:04:12.640 Here's the reality, guys.
00:04:14.340 Like I said, you can't control what somebody else does, but you can influence them.
00:04:21.540 And if you want to commit yourself to greatness,
00:04:23.700 you will influence at least one other person who will influence another and another and another.
00:04:30.420 And by definition, that is how a movement is created.
00:04:35.060 That is how a culture is created.
00:04:37.160 That is how America is going to be great again.
00:04:40.120 By you taking personal responsibility for who you are and what you do
00:04:45.200 and make much more out of your life than you are right now.
00:04:49.340 That is how we're going to fix what's going on here in America.
00:04:53.240 Are you worried about America?
00:04:54.620 Yeah, I am too.
00:04:56.460 But let's worry about ourselves first.
00:04:58.940 Because this is a one-person-at-a-time problem,
00:05:01.800 and it's a one-person-at-a-time solution.
00:05:04.200 The greatness of our country won't be decided by who we elect as president.
00:05:08.860 Do you think that really fucking matters?
00:05:11.380 No.
00:05:12.240 It won't be determined by the Congress or the Supreme Court.
00:05:16.280 Yes, our leaders are important.
00:05:17.800 I think that's very important.
00:05:19.460 It's a decision that we should take into tremendous thought
00:05:22.300 and make very careful decisions.
00:05:25.140 But at the end, we're not bound to them.
00:05:27.240 Our actions are not bound to them.
00:05:28.520 The way we live our lives are not bound to them.
00:05:31.060 We could be better than them.
00:05:33.120 And the greatness of our country is decided by us.
00:05:36.220 We get to decide if the winners lose and the losers win.
00:05:40.980 And if each of us decides to be great,
00:05:43.120 the winners in America will fucking win, period.
