Valuetainment - Episode 310 - The 1% Rule – Not A Message For Everyone

00:00:00.980 30 seconds, one time for the underdog, ignition sequence start, let me see you put em up, reach

00:00:09.240 the sky, turn the stars up above, cause it's one time for the underdog, one time for the

00:00:16.240 underdog.

00:00:17.320 I'm Patrick Bidwi, host of Value Taming, and in today's Motivation Monday video, I'm going

00:00:20.680 to talk to you about the 1% rule.

00:00:22.600 This is probably not a message for everybody.

00:00:25.160 I want you to think about the number 198.

00:00:28.360 198.

00:00:28.640 It's 198 players that were drafted before Tom Brady.

00:00:33.200 Think about this, 2000 NFL draft, he is picked.

00:00:37.660 Number 199, comes out of Michigan, doesn't look good.

00:00:40.840 When you look at his body, you're kind of like, ah, it is what it is.

00:00:43.120 In that draft, I want to say, LeVar Arrington was picked, Peter Warwick was on that list

00:00:47.920 as a wide receiver from Florida State, Brian Urlacher was on that list, Jamal Lewis, who

00:00:53.020 once ran 295 yards, his record was broken by Adrian Peterson, 296.

00:00:57.400 He was on that list, Jay Abrams on that list, Janikowski on that list, Chad Pennington was

00:01:02.980 the first quarterback, and this guy was picked, 199.

00:01:07.580 We're not talking like 20th.

00:01:11.420 199 is when he was picked.

00:01:13.040 Now, I want you to think about this here.

00:01:15.200 They're saying, you're going to retire, you're going to do this, he wins a sixth championship

00:01:17.420 team.

00:01:17.600 I'm not even a Brady fan.

00:01:18.440 I'm not a New England Patriots fan.

00:01:19.620 I was a diehard Buffalo Bills fan when I came here from Iran.

00:01:22.800 I was a Thurman Thomas fan, Don Beebe, Bryce Popp, Bruce Smith, Jim Kelly.

00:01:27.000 That was my team.

00:01:27.720 That was who I rooted for.

00:01:28.780 We, you know, these guys, they used to have Drew Bledsoe.

00:01:31.720 Drew Bledsoe gets hurt.

00:01:32.580 He comes in, he steps in, and then he becomes Tom Brady, wins six championships in 18 seasons.

00:01:37.000 And so when you look at this, this is what I think about when I think about Tom Brady.

00:01:41.040 There's a lot of ways you can say, oh, he's the goat, he's this, he's that.

00:01:43.260 I think he's the goat of goats because it's very difficult to do what he did in the NFL.

00:01:46.880 But this is the part.

00:01:47.660 A lot of people get into the NFL for the fame, for the prestige, for the party, and for the girls.

00:01:54.100 Oh, man, I'm going to have so many different girls. 0.94

00:01:57.000 Every night is going to be a different one.

00:01:58.800 Dog, we're going to party like there's no tomorrow.

00:02:01.300 We're going to party like rock stars, right?

00:02:03.940 Fame.

00:02:04.400 I'm going to be on TV.

00:02:06.000 Everybody from school is going to see me.

00:02:07.420 I'm on TV.

00:02:08.100 Look at me.

00:02:08.520 I'm famous.

00:02:09.760 Look at the chains.

00:02:10.680 Look at the cars.

00:02:11.340 Look at the jewelry.

00:02:12.680 That's another one, right?

00:02:14.540 The other one is money.

00:02:15.580 I got a $40 million contract.

00:02:17.800 I'm making $6 million a year, $8 million a year.

00:02:19.740 Look at this.

00:02:20.200 Look at that.

00:02:22.100 And as some do it because I want to be a pro bowler.

00:02:25.140 I want to win a game.

00:02:26.220 I want to win a championship game.

00:02:27.820 But very few are wired like this guy.

00:02:30.720 You know what's crazy about a guy like him?

00:02:32.280 No one finds out who is the Brady of their league or their industry for a long time.

00:02:40.260 Nobody does.

00:02:41.760 Nobody does.

00:02:43.520 It takes 10, 20 years, sometimes 30 years to find that out.

00:02:47.180 In the business world, there's a lot of people that come out of the gates and they win fast.

00:02:51.080 In the sports world, it's the same thing.

00:02:54.260 In everything, you'll never know 10, 20 years down the line.

00:02:58.100 You know what's crazy?

00:02:59.340 I remember one time I was in a meeting and a guy speaking from stage.

00:03:03.340 And I was probably the number 50 guy in the company, okay?

00:03:08.160 And nobody saw me as a number one guy or somebody that could come up.

00:03:11.620 It's probably the number 50 guy in the company.

00:03:13.480 But I remember looking at the speaker.

00:03:16.760 I never forget what I was telling myself.

00:03:19.460 I said, these guys have no idea.

00:03:21.660 I am not going to stop.

00:03:23.660 I'm not going to stop.

00:03:24.780 I don't think these guys understand it.

00:03:26.020 I don't care about the lifestyle.

00:03:26.940 You know why I buy a car like this?

00:03:28.980 Do you know why I buy a car like this?

00:03:30.180 One, when I was a kid, I saw the Shah with the picture upside down in Iran.

00:03:34.260 When I went to his museum, he's eight castles that he had.

00:03:37.160 This car was there and he drove a Rolls.

00:03:38.980 And I told myself, one day I'm going to buy it because I told my dad,

00:03:40.760 dad, look at that Rolls.

00:03:41.460 One day I'm going to buy that for myself.

00:03:43.500 I said, come on.

00:03:44.260 You know, you're dreaming.

00:03:45.540 But honestly, I don't care about this guy.

00:03:46.900 I drive this every day.

00:03:47.580 I put 15,000 miles on this every year.

00:03:49.980 I don't buy this like, oh, look at this exotic.

00:03:51.840 I just parked.

00:03:52.340 I drive it like it's a Ford Contour.

00:03:54.580 This is a given for a guy like Brady.

00:03:58.280 This is a given.

00:03:59.320 You know, sometimes when you're thinking, Pat, I don't know how to describe this to you,

00:04:02.820 man.

00:04:03.160 I go to sleep and I wake up.

00:04:06.120 I just can't stop dreaming about who I want to be in life.

00:04:12.440 You know, last night I was watching Gladiator.

00:04:14.540 I can't stop watching Gladiator for myself.

00:04:16.340 That's like my, it's my drug when I watch it.

00:04:19.340 The story of redemption.

00:04:21.660 Nothing like it, man.

00:04:22.600 When nobody thinks you could pull it off.

00:04:25.040 When everybody doubts you.

00:04:26.360 When everybody says, oh, you'll never do it.

00:04:29.200 And you know what's crazy?

00:04:30.060 All you guys that are watching this.

00:04:31.460 Somebody goes, oh my God, this was the exact message for me, Pat.

00:04:33.720 But I don't know if it is.

00:04:36.620 Let me tell you why.

00:04:38.580 I don't know what time you woke up today.

00:04:40.700 I don't know how fired up you are today.

00:04:43.480 I don't know if you need the world to motivate you every day.

00:04:47.320 Because nobody needs to motivate Brady every day.

00:04:51.040 He doesn't need a motivational speaker to get him going.

00:04:54.500 Yeah, I make these videos.

00:04:56.360 But these videos are built for you to eventually not need it anymore.

00:05:00.760 It isn't built for you to constantly need it.

00:05:03.600 It's built for you to finally realize how to motivate yourself.

00:05:08.120 And by the way, the majority need it constantly.

00:05:11.640 But the few, you have a vision in your brain and you can't take it out.

00:05:16.360 You can't take it out.

00:05:18.300 You can't take it out.

00:05:20.060 Somebody didn't believe in you.

00:05:21.700 Somebody says you can't do it.

00:05:23.680 Somebody said there's no way in the world.

00:05:26.380 You?

00:05:27.340 Are you out of your mind?

00:05:29.100 You could never do this.

00:05:30.820 You don't have a degree.

00:05:31.880 You don't come from the right family.

00:05:33.220 You were broke.

00:05:34.060 You're poor.

00:05:35.200 You have an accent.

00:05:37.020 You're not that smart.

00:05:38.940 You ain't that good.

00:05:40.520 There's no way you'll pull it off.

00:05:42.460 And all of those things stay in your brain.

00:05:44.880 You know how many scenes of conversations are recorded in my brain?

00:05:48.900 You know how many you got?

00:05:50.580 You either have to live with them and know they're right?

00:05:52.540 Or the few of you that are watching this, very small percentage, less than 1% of you that are watching this, less than 1%.

00:05:59.960 You can't take it out.

00:06:04.060 And you can't live your life without seeing those things become a reality.

00:06:06.800 You know who you are.

00:06:11.100 You know exactly who you are.

00:06:12.700 Because this message resonates with you.

00:06:16.180 So, 198.

00:06:18.320 Never been a Brady fan.

00:06:20.200 Never.

00:06:21.560 I was a Drew Bledsoe fan more than I was a Brady fan when he came out of Washington State.

00:06:26.200 But look at this guy.

00:06:29.200 Unbelievable what this guy's done.

00:06:31.500 This whole story today is not about him.

00:06:33.300 It's about you.

00:06:33.780 What are you doing it for?

00:06:35.860 Fame?

00:06:37.240 The money?

00:06:38.680 Cars like this?

00:06:40.260 The lifestyle?

00:06:41.320 Freedom?

00:06:43.040 Or to get a taste of what it's like to be the best in your world, in your industry.

00:06:51.080 Knowing when the guy takes a day off you're going.

00:06:54.420 Knowing the day your competitor gets casual.

00:06:57.580 You're doubling down on effort.

00:06:59.880 It's a big difference.

00:07:00.980 By the way, no one knew Brady was going to be who he was.

00:07:04.840 He didn't look like a professional football player.

00:07:07.420 He looks more in shape today than either when he first came into the league.

00:07:11.040 But you can't read someone's heart, man.

00:07:14.340 You cannot measure someone's heart.

00:07:18.720 You cannot.

00:07:20.780 So, anyways, if you follow a story, you know how special it is.

00:07:29.220 If you don't, one of the greatest underdog stories of all time.

00:07:34.240 Another great example of talent is good.

00:07:37.220 You can't measure heart.

00:07:38.580 Now, he also ended up having a great mentor, by the way, that wanted as medicine, if not more.

00:07:43.260 However, you put those two together, unstoppable combination.

00:07:48.620 So, this week, after watching this video, what are you doing it for?

00:07:53.260 Fame, money, prestige, freedom, glory?

00:07:56.940 Or to find out what it's like to be one of the best, if not the best, in your industry?

00:08:02.000 Actually, ask that question for yourself.

00:08:03.620 If you're still watching this video by now.

00:08:05.640 If you're not distracted with all the other things that are around you.

00:08:08.860 And if it fires you up and you're saying, Pat, I fully relate to everything you're saying.

00:08:13.180 Well, then guess what?

00:08:14.780 When everything goes wrong this week.

00:08:16.600 When your appointment cancels.

00:08:18.540 When your best sales cancels.

00:08:20.720 When your best customer cancels.

00:08:23.240 When your mom is disappointed because you haven't called her back.

00:08:26.260 When your girl breaks up with you.

00:08:28.040 When your boyfriend breaks up with you.

00:08:30.000 When something bad happens to your business, to you and the market, to your family, to your friends.

00:08:34.880 That's when you realize if you really got the goodies.

00:08:36.720 And then, we'll have to find out if it can last.

00:08:39.700 5, 10, 15, 20 years.

00:08:41.340 That's when we find out about your stamina.

00:08:43.660 Your fatigue.

00:08:44.780 Your endurance.

00:08:46.080 Everybody finds out.

00:08:47.960 And the few of you that stick around.

00:08:49.580 The world's going to know about you.

00:08:51.560 It's just how these things work.

00:08:53.320 Anyways.

00:08:54.620 I hope this message resonates with those few of you.

00:08:57.800 That actually think about this all day long.
