Transcript

00:00:00.000 So somebody at a recent event came up to me and said something to me that my guys were initially offended and I was so excited.
00:00:06.160 We're at this event, Mar-a-Lago.
00:00:08.280 I host my annual sales leadership conference.
00:00:10.360 People are coming in from all over the world.
00:00:11.820 It's very limited.
00:00:12.880 And we're at the end.
00:00:14.180 It's the networking event.
00:00:15.240 We're poolside Mar-a-Lago.
00:00:16.480 This guy comes up.
00:00:17.260 I'm having conversations with others.
00:00:18.640 We're shaking hands.
00:00:19.500 My guys are around me.
00:00:20.500 Comes and says, hey, Pat, I just want to say something to you.
00:00:23.320 I said, what's that?
00:00:24.140 He says, I am so glad that I'll be able to say I met you when you were just getting started.
00:00:29.360 I said, how long have we known each other?
00:00:31.000 He said, oh, this is the first time I've ever met you.
00:00:32.640 I said, what do you mean?
00:00:33.760 He said, I've never met you before.
00:00:35.520 He says, but I know you're about to blow up and you're just getting started.
00:00:39.480 I'm just so glad I can say that to everybody else I meet in my life.
00:00:43.460 I'm standing there.
00:00:44.240 My guys are like, what kind of a freaking, do you know how long this guy's been working?
00:00:47.720 Do you know what he's been doing?
00:00:48.660 You know what I said to him?
00:00:49.600 I said, you have no idea how big of a compliment that is to me.
00:00:52.880 He says, I know I'm coming from a very nice place.
00:00:55.560 I said, I know you are.
00:00:56.740 But to me, this is a very big compliment.
00:00:58.660 He says, why is that?
00:00:59.940 I said, because I feel like I'm just getting started.
00:01:02.680 To me, I feel like I'm barely, like I'm just figuring this thing out and we're just going
00:01:07.580 on the run.
00:01:08.180 You have no idea how big of a compliment you just gave me.
00:01:11.480 Then we go upstairs.
00:01:12.640 We're having dinner.
00:01:13.280 Jennifer's sitting here.
00:01:13.980 We're all sitting here.
00:01:14.740 You got Mateo.
00:01:15.380 You got Tikran.
00:01:15.940 You got Tom.
00:01:16.560 We're having this conversation.
00:01:17.600 And I tell him, I said, what just happened?
00:01:18.760 So, oh my God, how did you take that?
00:01:20.300 That's not right.
00:01:20.860 He doesn't even know how long you've been working.
00:01:21.940 You've been working 25 years.
00:01:23.080 I said, dude, let me tell you.
00:01:24.180 I don't care if he doesn't know what I've done the last 25 years.
00:01:26.480 The fact that he thinks we're just getting started is the best feeling in the world.
00:01:30.380 You know what's wild?
00:01:31.560 You ought to feel that way as well.
00:01:32.880 If you just started making a million dollars here for the first time, you ought to feel
00:01:35.780 like you're just getting started.
00:01:36.840 If your YouTube channel just crossed a hundred thousand and you're like, oh my God, you ought
00:01:39.940 to feel like you're just getting started.
00:01:41.100 If you just got a promotion at your job and you've never made this kind of money before,
00:01:44.120 you just bought a house, you moved into a new apartment, you got a nice car, you got
00:01:46.680 money in the back, your siblings are like, oh my God, you ought to feel like I'm just
00:01:49.200 getting started.
00:01:49.800 If you just all of a sudden had a massive milestone that nobody thought you were going to do and you
00:01:55.520 act like you've made it, this is what's next.
00:01:58.460 Boom.
00:01:59.220 But I feel like, dude, I just, I'm just barely getting started.
00:02:02.060 That feeling is infectious.
00:02:04.320 That's a childlike feeling.
00:02:07.480 President Trump, I'm at Mar-a-Lago.
00:02:09.620 One of the guys says, what's the best job you've ever had in your life?
00:02:12.960 He says, president.
00:02:14.020 This is after he lost in 2020.
00:02:16.360 He says, you're kidding me.
00:02:17.160 He says, I've never had a better job.
00:02:18.740 He says, you want to run again?
00:02:19.740 He says, absolutely.
00:02:20.820 Why?
00:02:21.040 Because I love that job.
00:02:24.120 His creativity was like, I'm just getting started.
00:02:27.840 At 78 years old, he's just getting started.
00:02:31.040 Look what he's doing.
00:02:32.060 Who's working?
00:02:32.580 Are you working harder than a 79-year president?
00:02:34.760 You know, next year in 2026, he's going to turn 80 years old while America turns 250,
00:02:39.180 250 years old.
00:02:40.260 And he feels like he's just getting started.
00:02:42.540 That feeling.
00:02:43.800 I know if I go to an office, if I go to a business, if I go to a sports team, if I see a
00:02:48.760 kid that's one and he's done things, I can tell by your energy, if you feel like you're
00:02:53.920 just getting started, and I can tell by your energy, if you feel like you've already made
00:02:57.780 it, if you feel like you've already made it, not an attractive quality, not an attractive
00:03:01.740 quality, casual, arrogant, entitled, walking around like you're so famous and you're so
00:03:06.660 this and you're so important person, person I feel like they're just getting started.
00:03:10.540 They can have the confidence, but they play ball in a different way.
00:03:13.940 They move in a different way, enthusiasm in a different way, excitement in a different
00:03:17.940 way, if you're at a point in your life right now, they're like, man, I wish I had that
00:03:22.660 feeling.
00:03:23.100 I just don't have it right now.
00:03:24.400 Whatever you do, go buy the book, choose your enemies wisely.
00:03:31.660 In the book I talk about, there are 14 types of enemies that drive the hell out of people.
00:03:37.200 If you need to get that feeling back in your belly again, place the order of the book.
00:03:41.980 You can listen to the audio or buy the physical, whichever one you want to do.
00:03:45.120 But if you're at that phase that this thing needs to wake up to go there again, go place
00:03:49.360 the order on the book.
00:03:50.120 It's going to be the link in the description below.
00:03:51.800 I would do that if I were you, because you ought to feel like that, especially those of
00:03:55.660 you that had a massive victory in your life.
