00:00:00.000 What is your worst public defeat loss, humiliating loss you've ever had in your life?
00:00:06.180 What is it?
00:00:06.840 I'm talking people saw it, girlfriends saw it, wife, husband, mom, dad, best friend.
00:00:11.820 What is the worst loss you've ever had in your life?
00:00:13.940 Ready?
00:00:15.040 However bad it was, however painful it was, I guarantee you it is not going to be as painful of a loss as a person losing tomorrow on November 3rd.
00:00:26.000 Because while you're watching this, this is Monday, November 2nd.
00:00:29.120 If you watch it after that, you already know who won and lost, but I guarantee you, nobody is going to lose worse than somebody losing tomorrow.
00:00:36.580 You're talking about two people who've been going at it for God knows how long now.
00:00:39.800 One of them has been a president for about three years and, what, 10 months.
00:00:43.120 And the other one is here coming up after 47 years running for office for the third time.
00:00:47.440 This is the third time he ran for office.
00:00:49.220 One is in the 80s, one is in the 2000s, and one is this time.
00:00:52.120 This is his third try at presidency, and they're both in their mid to late 70s,
00:00:57.740 and they're both going to have one of their biggest losses.
00:01:01.260 It's going to be the biggest loss they've ever had.
00:01:02.880 Not both of them.
00:01:03.380 One of them is going to have it.
00:01:04.280 So, going back to you.
00:01:05.820 You know, last week I'm watching a Dodger game.
00:01:07.740 I'm watching a Dodger game against the Rays, and they're up 8-7.
00:01:11.960 It's bottom of the ninth.
00:01:13.400 They're one out away.
00:01:14.760 If they take this win, they're going to be up 3-1.
00:01:17.400 They're pretty much going to win the World Series.
00:01:18.840 And, boom, a pop-up goes up.
00:01:21.560 Bellinger, Golden Gloves, best guy that's got, you know, an outfield, centerfield,
00:01:26.660 comes up to catch, drops the ball.
00:01:29.200 Not only does he drop the ball, he throws it in.
00:01:32.040 The catcher doesn't catch the ball.
00:01:33.900 So, they don't score one run so they can go into extra innings.
00:01:36.660 They score two.
00:01:37.640 They win the game.
00:01:38.620 Now it's 2-2.
00:01:39.900 Dave Roberts being humiliated by everybody.
00:01:42.720 They ought to fire them, including myself.
00:01:44.840 I even made a comment about Dave Roberts saying if these guys lose this year,
00:01:49.440 he could have taken that pitcher out, put another guy in.
00:01:52.180 Jensen shouldn't have been in.
00:01:53.560 I'm the guy criticizing this coach, right?
00:01:56.440 And Dave Roberts to me, I mean, obviously I'm an L.A. guy,
00:01:58.740 so I'm rooting for the Dodgers.
00:01:59.700 I went to the Dodger game two years ago to watch them beat the Astros in game seven,
00:02:03.020 and Astros beat the Dodgers, I believe, 5-1, the ugliest games I've ever been in my lifetime.
00:02:07.320 So, I said, let me go to this game this time.
00:02:09.260 It's game six.
00:02:11.000 They're up 3-2.
00:02:12.300 I go to the game.
00:02:13.180 The Dodgers win the next game.
00:02:15.200 They come back and win the next game.
00:02:16.800 It's game six.
00:02:18.140 I'm at the Arlington Stadium, Global Life Stadium.
00:02:20.920 I'm over there, and they're playing the game.
00:02:22.960 Five innings, Snell is pitching.
00:02:25.040 Cy Young winner.
00:02:25.920 Two hits in five innings.
00:02:27.160 I'm sitting there saying, struck out nine in four and two-thirds.
00:02:31.980 They're taking this guy out.
00:02:34.000 I understand the Rays are all about predictive analytics, the whole Moneyball game.
00:02:38.400 So, they take him out.
00:02:39.360 When they took him out, I stood up.
00:02:41.000 I'm like, thank God they're taking this guy out.
00:02:43.300 Because he was embarrassing all the Dodgers hitters.
00:02:45.960 All of them, right?
00:02:47.220 So, they bring out the next guy.
00:02:49.020 Get a hit.
00:02:49.860 Get a run.
00:02:50.680 We're up 2-1.
00:02:51.780 And then the Dodgers, Mookie Betts hits another home run.
00:02:54.940 They're up 3-1.
00:02:56.000 And then you're watching this game right now.
00:02:57.860 And you're sitting there.
00:02:58.740 And all of a sudden, boom!
00:03:00.120 Julio comes in.
00:03:01.380 Pitches the strikeout.
00:03:02.720 Pitches another strikeout.
00:03:04.120 Game is over.
00:03:04.860 The Dodgers win the World Series, right?
00:03:06.920 You realize the Rays had the biggest public humiliating loss of their lifetime, ever.
00:03:14.940 But they went to the World Series.
00:03:16.800 Tomorrow, Trump or Biden are going to have the biggest loss of their careers.
00:03:21.560 Nothing's ever going to be bigger than this as a competitive.
00:03:24.780 I'm not talking about loss of a loved one, brother, parent.
00:03:27.580 I'm talking competitiveness.
00:03:29.220 Public loss.
00:03:30.360 It's going to be the biggest public loss they've had tomorrow.
00:03:33.040 But you know what's the one thing Rays, Dodgers, Trump, Biden all have in common?
00:03:36.720 Here's what they have in common.
00:03:38.280 They had the guts to get in the ring at the highest level.
00:03:41.800 They had the guts to not give up at the highest level.
00:03:44.620 They had the guts to be patient.
00:03:46.420 Tiger yesterday said something.
00:03:47.780 I was watching one of his interviews from 2018.
00:03:50.120 And he said, greatness to me is not about how good you can be in one day, in one month.
00:03:54.200 Anybody can have a great month.
00:03:55.800 Anybody can have a great week.
00:03:56.980 Anybody can have a great quarter.
00:03:58.120 Anybody can have a great year.
00:03:59.140 He said, greatness to me is when you can be great and consistent for over a decade or two.
00:04:04.620 He was referencing the greatest of all time in tennis, football, basketball.
00:04:09.180 He was referencing those guys.
00:04:11.080 These guys have been going at it for decades.
00:04:12.800 Trump and Biden are in their 70s.
00:04:14.200 Whether you hate Trump or you hate Biden, regardless of it all, they're competing in their 70s.
00:04:18.780 While most people have expected their retirement at 62.
00:04:21.800 Send my social security check at 65.
00:04:24.440 I'm hoping to retire and kick back.
00:04:25.960 They're running in their 70s.
00:04:28.120 They're running in their 70s.
00:04:29.580 What's the moral of the story?
00:04:31.100 This whole message came about the way the Dodgers lost.
00:04:33.220 And the reason why I'm sharing this with you is, I know so many talented, brilliant, perfect, genius guys, capable.
00:04:43.980 You know what prevents them from competing at the highest level?
00:04:46.740 They are so scared of having a public humiliating loss.
00:04:51.120 They are so scared of being humiliated.
00:04:53.500 You know how we sit there and I'm going to run a podcast next Tuesday, which is tomorrow, and it's going to be on what?
00:04:58.380 On election night, right?
00:04:59.540 Guess what we're going to be sitting there commentating on, giving our opinions on, on the election.
00:05:04.580 That's what we're going to be doing.
00:05:05.880 You know how many people are going to have opinions about Trump or Biden?
00:05:08.280 Trump wins.
00:05:08.840 I'm so glad.
00:05:09.840 Get this moment.
00:05:11.000 He deserves it.
00:05:12.280 He's such awesome.
00:05:14.400 Great.
00:05:15.080 He's such a loser.
00:05:16.060 I'm going to call him all these other names.
00:05:17.480 Biden loses.
00:05:18.160 Oh, this is exactly what you get.
00:05:20.500 47 years.
00:05:21.180 You got nothing done.
00:05:22.180 Boom.
00:05:22.720 No matter what, they're going to get that, right?
00:05:25.080 But they're okay with it.
00:05:26.120 That doesn't mean they like it.
00:05:27.480 That doesn't mean they go to sleep next to their wives and say, no, I'm so happy.
00:05:30.020 That doesn't mean they're going to be okay with their kids seeing their daddy losing in front of seven and a half billion people.
00:05:35.580 But they have the guts to get in the ring and lose and take a punch.
00:05:41.320 Yes, history is going to benefit one person.
00:05:43.420 Yes.
00:05:44.220 History, 200 years from now, no one's going to say, who was second place in 2020 World Series?
00:05:48.900 No one's going to say it.
00:05:49.680 They're not going to say, oh, the Rays.
00:05:50.740 They're not going to say, oh, Snell.
00:05:52.400 They're going to say, oh, Dodgers.
00:05:54.220 Dodgers won it.
00:05:55.280 No one's going to say, if I were to tell you right now, 1964 or 1950, whatever, who was the runner-up against such and such?
00:06:02.880 Who was the runner-up against Kennedy?
00:06:04.320 Who was the runner-up?
00:06:05.220 You may not have a name, but you know who the 16th president is.
00:06:07.920 Lincoln.
00:06:08.700 The point is, there is that massive of a recognition for the first place person.
00:06:13.100 It's not 100 times more.
00:06:14.260 It's not 1,000 times more.
00:06:15.600 It's millions and times, millions times more than a second place person.
00:06:19.420 But at least they got the guts to get in the ring.
00:06:21.200 So I've got a question for you.
00:06:22.660 Your worst loss you've ever had.
00:06:24.660 Biggest public loss you've ever had.
00:06:29.060 How many people heard about it?
00:06:31.480 How many people saw it?
00:06:33.300 Five people?
00:06:34.700 Ten people?
00:06:35.980 200 people?
00:06:36.940 Maybe 1,000?
00:06:38.300 Let's say 10,000?
00:06:40.160 Is it 7.5 billion?
00:06:41.560 If it's not 7.5 billion or a million or 10 million, what are you worried about?
00:06:49.680 It's really not that big of a deal.
00:06:51.600 Use the pain.
00:06:52.580 Come back stronger.
00:06:54.080 Show up the next week, the next month, the next day saying, I'm going to figure out a way to outwork, outimprove, outstrategize, and outlast.
00:07:01.540 And eventually, I'm going to do my part to have my big victories.
00:07:06.380 Because at the end of the day, if you stack a bunch of big losses together, guess what else comes with a bunch of big losses?
00:07:13.240 A massive victory.
00:07:14.540 Victory only and only if you know how to handle a loss.
00:07:22.300 So with that being said, if you're watching this video, I got another video I want you to watch.
00:07:26.560 I did this video, I think, four years ago.
00:07:28.100 If you've not watched this video, you may want to watch it.
00:07:30.400 It has to do exactly what I just talked to you about.
00:07:32.580 It's about a video I did titled Good Voice, Bad Voice.
00:07:35.640 It's three Patricks talking to one another.
00:07:38.000 The real me, the good me, the bad me.
00:07:40.760 And this is what the conversation sounded like.
00:07:42.640 If you haven't seen it, click over here to watch the video.
00:07:45.280 And if not, have a great day today and enjoy the elections tomorrow.
