froze Fuck a bowl, fuck a stove, counted millions in

the cold Bad bitch, booted swole, got her own bankroll

00:00:12.939 --> 00:00:17.980
Can't fold, just a note, headshot, case closed.

00:00:16.980 --> 00:00:19.420

boys Who's payin'? You said I would get it? All right.

00:00:41.450 --> 00:00:45.090
I'm super excited about today's show. The bet was would

00:00:45.109 --> 00:00:47.630
I get the intro right the first try or the
13
00:00:47.670 --> 00:00:49.729
second try or third try? Because right now I've been
14
00:00:49.750 --> 00:00:52.549
having a problem with the intro. True or not true?
15
00:00:53.270 --> 00:00:53.509
True.
16
00:00:54.270 --> 00:00:59.170
See, I'm not good at everything. Just most things. So guys.

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:02.320
Have an awesome show for you today. I'm super excited

about it. Bringing back an old, recognizable voice from the
19
00:01:08.500 --> 00:01:12.230
podcast of right in the beginning, a good friend of mine.
20
00:01:12.250 --> 00:01:17.069
We're going to talk about 75 Hard, which he absolutely crushed,
21
00:01:17.150 --> 00:01:20.109
by the way. We're going to talk about the ins
22
00:01:20.150 --> 00:01:22.430
and outs of his journey and what he experienced. I
23
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:23.959
think you guys are going to really love the show.
24
00:01:24.500 --> 00:01:26.140
Thanks for coming on, brother. Ben Newman.
25
00:01:26.989 --> 00:01:30.170
Andy, it's awesome to be back in the studio with you. Man,
26
00:01:30.189 --> 00:01:32.230
we cut up and had some amazing times.
27
00:01:32.450 --> 00:01:34.709
Oh, bro. On the microphone. Yeah.
28
00:01:34.890 --> 00:01:37.840
On the stages. And, you know, it's wild. People always ask,
29
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:39.260
when are you guys going to get back together? And
30
00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:41.680
it's not that, like, everybody listening, it's not that we
31
00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:43.439
don't want to. No, it's just we both do a
32
00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:45.459
lot of shit. We apologize, but we both do a
33
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.700
lot of shit. It's not as easy as it sounds,
34
00:01:48.780 --> 00:01:50.200
but man, I'm so glad.
35
00:01:50.040 --> 00:01:52.530
To be here with you. Yeah, I'm happy to have you, bro.
36
00:01:52.909 --> 00:01:55.170
We've been trying to get this show together for a
37
00:01:55.209 --> 00:02:00.390
few weeks now because, dude, you just had an, I mean, incredible,
38
00:02:00.450 --> 00:02:05.159
incredible live hard results, the complete program. And I kind
39
00:02:05.170 --> 00:02:08.460
of wanted to go through and just, you know, I mean, bro,
40
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:11.139
you're already a high performance guy. Like that's how you
41
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:13.080
make your living. You know, for those of you guys
42
00:02:13.099 --> 00:02:16.099
that don't know, Ben is one of the best mental
43
00:02:16.139 --> 00:02:19.039
toughness coaches in the world. And one of the best
44
00:02:19.099 --> 00:02:24.270
speakers in the world. He coaches, dude, I'm talking about
45
00:02:24.289 --> 00:02:26.569
the best of the best. The University of Alabama hires
46
00:02:26.610 --> 00:02:28.889
this man to come in and teach them how to
47
00:02:28.930 --> 00:02:32.669
be tougher. All right. When the University of Alabama is
48
00:02:32.729 --> 00:02:35.490
hiring you to come in and teach how to be
49
00:02:35.509 --> 00:02:39.210
a higher performance performing individual, you know what the fuck
50
00:02:39.229 --> 00:02:42.189
you're talking about. So I am super excited to get
51
00:02:42.250 --> 00:02:43.210
into this journey, bro.
52
00:02:43.710 --> 00:02:45.909
I mean, I'll bring some up real quick because I
53
00:02:45.949 --> 00:02:47.569
just got back from Tuscaloosa last night.
54
00:02:47.629 --> 00:02:47.879
Yeah.
55
00:02:48.009 --> 00:02:50.479
So it's, you know, this year, actually, Coach Saban is
56
00:02:50.500 --> 00:02:52.219
my fourth year with the team. He's relied on me
57
00:02:52.259 --> 00:02:53.919
to do more this year than I've ever done. I mean,
58
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:56.949
we built a whole mental conditioning for success program. And so,
59
00:02:56.960 --> 00:02:58.500
I mean, I've been there throughout the entire year. A
60
00:02:58.539 --> 00:03:00.830
lot of people think football is just like Oh, when
61
00:03:00.849 --> 00:03:03.069
the season comes around, like no football never stops.
62
00:03:03.090 --> 00:03:03.469
That's right.
63
00:03:03.610 --> 00:03:06.270
And in that building in Tuscaloosa, it really never stops.
64
00:03:06.310 --> 00:03:08.949
And you're always uncomfortable when you go in. But the
65
00:03:08.990 --> 00:03:11.430
reality is just like so many people who have attempted
66
00:03:11.430 --> 00:03:14.389
75 hard, you're thinking about 75 hard. What's going to
67
00:03:14.449 --> 00:03:17.430
hold you back is your self-talk. It's the same thing
68
00:03:17.590 --> 00:03:20.280
at Alabama. What's going to hold those players back from
69
00:03:20.340 --> 00:03:22.919
competing at their highest level or not? It's their self-talk.
70
00:03:23.659 --> 00:03:26.039
And for you listening, it's your self-talk. For anybody in
71
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:29.240
corporate America, it's your self-talk. Self-talk is what holds us back.
72
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:31.560
And so for me, what I think is kind of
73
00:03:31.650 --> 00:03:34.189
unique for people to hear, I had so much self-talk
74
00:03:34.229 --> 00:03:37.590
around 75 hard because I have my unrequired workout that
75
00:03:37.620 --> 00:03:40.759
I've done forever. And I used to tell myself, Why
76
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:42.560
do I need to do 75R? That was going to
77
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:44.580
be my first question. I do my own required work.
78
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:45.479
Why do I need to do it?
79
00:03:45.620 --> 00:03:47.530
Right. And that was my self-talk. Yeah.
80
00:03:47.810 --> 00:03:49.949
And then I'm like, well, shit. I mean, I've been
81
00:03:49.969 --> 00:03:53.090
friends with Andy forever. Look at the results Andy's getting.
82
00:03:53.189 --> 00:03:55.409
Why would I not challenge myself? Because I'm a mental
83
00:03:55.430 --> 00:03:57.810
toughness coach. Like, I don't need help anymore.
84
00:03:58.090 --> 00:04:00.490
You know, hold on. Let's stop right there. Now, I
85
00:04:00.530 --> 00:04:03.479
want you guys to recognize what we're talking about here
86
00:04:03.580 --> 00:04:06.060
in terms of your own character and your own performance.
87
00:04:06.580 --> 00:04:10.349
This is a man who literally teaches... how to be
88
00:04:10.430 --> 00:04:14.949
mentally tough, who was able to look at it and say, no,
89
00:04:15.310 --> 00:04:17.089
I'm good enough to learn here. I'm good enough to
90
00:04:17.129 --> 00:04:19.569
try some new shit. And that is the mark of
91
00:04:19.610 --> 00:04:22.790
a true champion. It's humility. It's true humility. You know,
92
00:04:23.009 --> 00:04:27.110
people think humility is, you know, I don't brag about
93
00:04:27.149 --> 00:04:29.410
my success. No, dude, you guys got it all wrong.
94
00:04:29.790 --> 00:04:34.810
Humility is the skill of understanding that you can always improve.
95
00:04:34.910 --> 00:04:36.709
You can always get better and you're no better than
96
00:04:36.910 --> 00:04:41.089
the work you do. So, I mean, dude, That's something
97
00:04:41.129 --> 00:04:44.329
most people just won't do. I still have two coaches. Bro,
98
00:04:44.370 --> 00:04:46.610
I get it. One of my coaches is 31 years old.
99
00:04:46.670 --> 00:04:49.410
I'm 42. Yeah, there you go. He's 31 years old.
100
00:04:49.430 --> 00:04:49.629
Yeah.
101
00:04:49.970 --> 00:04:52.569
Drew Hanlon, another St. Louis. Yeah. I mean, this guy
102
00:04:52.610 --> 00:04:54.829
is one of the sharpest. He's a basketball coach, right? Yeah,
103
00:04:54.870 --> 00:04:56.829
he's one of the top NBA skills trainers in the world.
104
00:04:56.949 --> 00:04:57.509
I coach him.
105
00:04:57.550 --> 00:04:59.449
He coaches me. We bounce back and forth like we
106
00:04:59.470 --> 00:05:02.029
sharpen each other's iron. Cause he's 31. I'm going to
107
00:05:02.149 --> 00:05:04.939
say I'm 42. Well, you haven't been through life long enough.
108
00:05:05.069 --> 00:05:05.300
Yeah.
109
00:05:05.449 --> 00:05:07.740
Dude, that guy is so further along than I am
110
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:10.279
in what mental toughness. I mean, the dude stopped eating
111
00:05:10.339 --> 00:05:12.540
cake when he was 10 years old, never had birthday
112
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:15.220
cake because he wanted to play college basketball. I mean,
113
00:05:15.259 --> 00:05:18.100
I mean like talk about like, you can learn so
114
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:20.459
much from people if you just check your ego and say,
115
00:05:20.500 --> 00:05:22.730
look like it's okay to not know everything. And I
116
00:05:22.790 --> 00:05:25.209
hope I go to the grave, not knowing everything. I'll
117
00:05:25.230 --> 00:05:26.850
live an okay life. If I go to the grave,
118
00:05:26.990 --> 00:05:28.290
still wanting to learn and get better.
119
00:05:28.529 --> 00:05:31.079
Dude. I think that's the whole key to the whole thing.
120
00:05:31.579 --> 00:05:33.439
Like the whole key to the whole journey here is
121
00:05:33.490 --> 00:05:38.029
to say, Hey, you know, I'm not as good. I'm
122
00:05:38.089 --> 00:05:40.310
only as good as what I do today. That's how
123
00:05:40.350 --> 00:05:43.470
I see it. I see it as what do I
124
00:05:43.490 --> 00:05:46.230
do today? And I evaluate at the end of the day.
125
00:05:46.790 --> 00:05:49.329
And then tomorrow that I don't care about what I
126
00:05:49.370 --> 00:05:52.329
did anymore. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm learning
127
00:05:52.410 --> 00:05:55.259
every day. I'm trying to improve every day. I look
128
00:05:55.500 --> 00:05:58.459
at every day. I was talking to a guy I
129
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.139
just met who's a really cool guy and has got
130
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:03.779
a really cool story. Chef Rush. I don't know if
131
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:06.899
you know Chef Rush. So Chef Rush is on Instagram.
132
00:06:07.269 --> 00:06:10.970
He's a bodybuilder, a chef, has an incredible story. But
133
00:06:11.009 --> 00:06:13.009
we were texting back and forth just a minute ago.
134
00:06:13.029 --> 00:06:17.629
And we were talking about, you know, we're getting to
135
00:06:17.649 --> 00:06:20.439
know each other. So we were, you know, being talking
136
00:06:20.459 --> 00:06:22.839
about each other's stories and stuff. And he's like, yeah, dude,
137
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:25.399
he's like, you know, every day is the first day.
138
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:27.379
And I'm like, holy shit, bro. I say that all
139
00:06:27.420 --> 00:06:30.379
the time. It's fucking day one. It's day one. Today
140
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:32.839
is day one, 23 years to get here is day one.
141
00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:35.939
You know what I'm saying? When I'm 90 years old
142
00:06:36.420 --> 00:06:38.199
and I'm getting ready to kick it or whatever age
143
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:41.819
that happens to be, um, that's day one, dude, I'm
144
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:44.040
still going to try to learn that day, you know?
145
00:06:44.180 --> 00:06:46.660
And I really think that's the whole key to everything, dude.
146
00:06:46.980 --> 00:06:48.759
Maybe I'm fucking wrong. Maybe I'll get to be old
147
00:06:48.779 --> 00:06:52.610
and I'll say, Hey, I fucking should have quit at
148
00:06:52.610 --> 00:06:55.170
40 and just live my life. But dude, that doesn't
149
00:06:55.209 --> 00:06:57.709
bring me any satisfaction. Well, that's when, you know, we've
150
00:06:57.750 --> 00:06:59.939
all had those periods of time. We've allowed our feelings
151
00:07:00.100 --> 00:07:02.300
to dictate how we live. We've had our feelings to
152
00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:04.660
dictate when we work out, how we choose. I got
153
00:07:04.699 --> 00:07:06.720
a great workout in yesterday, man. It's going to cover
154
00:07:06.740 --> 00:07:08.040
me for three days. I don't need to work.
155
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.139
But no, you said you were working out today. So
156
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:11.920
why would you skip your workout? Cause yesterday was a
157
00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.259
good workout, right? And so people, they choose to take
158
00:07:15.339 --> 00:07:17.879
results to determine how they react and the choices that
159
00:07:17.899 --> 00:07:20.379
they make rather than saying tomorrow is a new day.
160
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:23.430
I mean, it's no secret now. I mean, the win
161
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:25.550
the day episode, everybody loved it. That's why they always
162
00:07:25.589 --> 00:07:27.490
like when we get on the mic together. And the
163
00:07:27.529 --> 00:07:30.509
reality is like, what's changed from years ago when we've
164
00:07:30.529 --> 00:07:30.870
done that?
165
00:07:30.930 --> 00:07:33.689
Nothing. It's still an opportunity to show up and win
166
00:07:33.769 --> 00:07:36.709
one day at a time. Everything has changed, but the
167
00:07:36.750 --> 00:07:38.899
way we approach our day has not changed. Correct. And
168
00:07:38.939 --> 00:07:41.459
that's what tells the story. Now that's actually, that's actually true.
169
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:43.759
You see what I'm saying? That's why I wore this. Yeah.
170
00:07:43.779 --> 00:07:45.360
I specifically wore this polo. Yeah.
171
00:07:45.420 --> 00:07:47.579
And here's why you guys got to go find the footage.
172
00:07:47.610 --> 00:07:49.129
This is, this is the challenge for the team here.
173
00:07:49.569 --> 00:07:51.329
This is the polo that I wore for the first
174
00:07:51.370 --> 00:07:52.009
summer smash.
175
00:07:52.250 --> 00:07:54.910
Yeah. And I went back and saw the picture. I
176
00:07:54.949 --> 00:07:57.370
was skinny as hell. Yeah. It was hanging off you.
177
00:07:57.410 --> 00:07:59.949
And I was like, I could fill this thing out guys. Yeah.
178
00:07:59.980 --> 00:08:00.120
Right.
179
00:08:00.180 --> 00:08:04.019
Because you put in the compound effect and you start,
180
00:08:04.470 --> 00:08:06.449
surrounding yourself and you got to, you got to perform
181
00:08:06.490 --> 00:08:08.970
in the environment that you're put in. If I walk
182
00:08:09.009 --> 00:08:11.970
into Alabama, right. And I'm overweight. I look like I
183
00:08:12.009 --> 00:08:14.069
was eating donuts. I'm not doing my work. Those guys
184
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:16.420
are not going to listen to me. And so when
185
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:18.939
practice ends, typically I'll go with the tight ends and
186
00:08:18.980 --> 00:08:20.560
we get a little lifting together. We'll live for 10
187
00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:22.759
or 15 minutes, get a little pumping. And when I'm
188
00:08:22.819 --> 00:08:24.560
lifting the same weight as them for them to get
189
00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:27.449
their pump, there's a different connection I have with those.
190
00:08:27.810 --> 00:08:30.649
And so people don't realize like the little work you
191
00:08:30.670 --> 00:08:33.490
do every day. When I started working out, I always
192
00:08:33.549 --> 00:08:35.659
worked out. But when I started working out for that
193
00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:37.960
next level, I didn't ask me working in Alabama. When
194
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.620
you and I met, I wasn't working in Alabama.
195
00:08:39.710 --> 00:08:40.830
No. Yeah.
196
00:08:40.870 --> 00:08:43.009
So those are the little things people, they just, they
197
00:08:43.110 --> 00:08:46.110
live in the, in the, just own the day rather
198
00:08:46.149 --> 00:08:48.169
than trying to control the results that you have no
199
00:08:48.230 --> 00:08:48.809
control over.
200
00:08:48.909 --> 00:08:51.820
Yeah. You have control over them. If you dominate one
201
00:08:51.860 --> 00:08:55.120
day at a time, that's it. And most people lack
202
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:59.340
the perspective, right? Like, When you're, when you, I promise
203
00:08:59.379 --> 00:09:02.340
we're going to get into 75 hard, but like, I
204
00:09:02.379 --> 00:09:06.370
like these conversations. So I think from what I've noticed,
205
00:09:07.250 --> 00:09:11.830
most people have a hard time committing to that concept
206
00:09:11.870 --> 00:09:14.350
of day by day by day. Cause they've never actually
207
00:09:14.389 --> 00:09:17.289
done it. And it doesn't like see it. It's when
208
00:09:17.309 --> 00:09:19.389
you're standing at the fucking foot of the mountain, bro,
209
00:09:19.870 --> 00:09:23.059
it seems impossible. You're like, Oh dude, that's way too simple.
210
00:09:23.559 --> 00:09:25.379
That's not really how it's done. You mean you just
211
00:09:25.940 --> 00:09:29.039
execute today and then you do it again tomorrow and
212
00:09:29.070 --> 00:09:31.909
then the next day. And people think like that sounds
213
00:09:32.090 --> 00:09:37.250
overly simple, but it might be, but it's how it works.
214
00:09:37.590 --> 00:09:41.009
There's not a magical thing to it. There's no magic
215
00:09:41.049 --> 00:09:43.320
to it. The only fucking magic to it is the
216
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:46.100
momentum that you create that helps you push you even
217
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:48.980
faster towards where you're going. And if you guys would
218
00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:55.250
just commit, you know, to 75 days, of intentional effort
219
00:09:55.289 --> 00:09:58.990
every single day to do this, you will change tremendously,
220
00:09:59.409 --> 00:10:02.490
but my argument would be for most people, now you
221
00:10:02.549 --> 00:10:05.070
already knew this and I already knew this, but I
222
00:10:05.129 --> 00:10:07.940
think for most people, I think the big awakening that
223
00:10:07.980 --> 00:10:11.139
they have during this program is that they get to
224
00:10:11.179 --> 00:10:13.500
look back and they say, holy shit, it really is
225
00:10:13.539 --> 00:10:16.320
that simple. So if I keep going, I'm going to
226
00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:19.190
get where I want to go. And so this is
227
00:10:19.269 --> 00:10:24.230
something that you have to do to understand. And, you know,
228
00:10:24.330 --> 00:10:25.269
let's talk about that.
229
00:10:25.289 --> 00:10:26.789
Before we get into it, I just want to mention,
230
00:10:26.809 --> 00:10:29.129
because I think it's really important to capture this point.
231
00:10:30.690 --> 00:10:32.289
Why are Andy and I, and I'm just going to
232
00:10:32.309 --> 00:10:35.000
be direct, why are we jerks and assholes? Because we're
233
00:10:35.009 --> 00:10:37.519
challenging you to be your best. That's the part I
234
00:10:37.539 --> 00:10:38.899
don't understand. Right?
235
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:40.639
So people want to like, why would he create this?
236
00:10:40.860 --> 00:10:42.259
People come at me for this. Wait a second.
237
00:10:43.389 --> 00:10:45.970
Why is it a bad thing for somebody to encourage
238
00:10:46.009 --> 00:10:50.250
you to experience something that may unlock the first time
239
00:10:50.309 --> 00:10:53.610
in your life that you understand what it feels like
240
00:10:53.830 --> 00:10:54.750
to be your best?
241
00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:55.080
Yeah.
242
00:10:55.980 --> 00:10:58.200
And even if it's not 75 hard, I talked to
243
00:10:58.259 --> 00:11:01.720
individuals in corporate America, right? People running billion dollar organizations
244
00:11:01.740 --> 00:11:04.059
that have the blessing of coaching. And I'll say to them,
245
00:11:04.740 --> 00:11:07.879
your people are getting so frustrated when all you're doing
246
00:11:07.940 --> 00:11:10.559
as a leader is encouraging them to live their best life.
247
00:11:11.149 --> 00:11:14.190
Why is that so wrong? Well, society is dictating. You
248
00:11:14.230 --> 00:11:16.789
encourage somebody to be their best. And it's like, why
249
00:11:16.809 --> 00:11:18.690
are you coming at me like this? So I just,
250
00:11:18.830 --> 00:11:20.820
I just wanted to open up by saying when we
251
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:24.840
have this conversation, say just know like Andy and I DJ,
252
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:27.419
all of us, like we want you to just experience
253
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:28.600
what it means for you to be your best.
254
00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:28.860
Yeah.
255
00:11:28.980 --> 00:11:31.460
So don't take this the wrong way. Don't take it.
256
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:34.490
We're too challenging. Take it for what it is. Like
257
00:11:34.730 --> 00:11:37.190
Andy created this because he wants people to feel like,
258
00:11:37.779 --> 00:11:39.220
what it is to be your best.
259
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:41.970
I mean, is that right? No, it's right. But it's like,
260
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:45.470
you know, at this point, bro, you know, I'm, you know,
261
00:11:45.490 --> 00:11:47.769
I'll be, I'll be real back. You know, I'm fucking,
262
00:11:47.909 --> 00:11:49.610
I'm not doing this for the motherfuckers. I got to
263
00:11:49.629 --> 00:11:51.360
convince to do it. You know, if you don't, if
264
00:11:51.379 --> 00:11:52.679
you don't figure out why you need to do it,
265
00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:54.279
I don't really give a shit. And if you think
266
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:55.940
I'm mean for doing it or saying it, I don't
267
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:58.039
give a shit either. because I see the benefits that
268
00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:00.820
it makes, you know, and the benefits that it actually
269
00:12:00.860 --> 00:12:03.850
helps people that commit and follow through and want to improve.
270
00:12:03.870 --> 00:12:06.389
Those are my tribe. You know, the people who are
271
00:12:06.429 --> 00:12:08.190
on the fence and they get offended by the stuff
272
00:12:08.230 --> 00:12:11.529
I say, or by the idea of taking personal accountability or,
273
00:12:12.049 --> 00:12:14.950
or working to be better and win and all this shit. Uh,
274
00:12:15.269 --> 00:12:17.940
those aren't my motherfuckers. So I don't really care. Like, dude,
275
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:20.940
you know, if, if you, if you don't want to
276
00:12:20.980 --> 00:12:26.480
get better, then there's two things I can say to you. One, congratulations.
277
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:29.799
because you're in a great place. You know what I'm saying? Like,
278
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:32.100
if you really don't want to get better and you're happy,
279
00:12:32.539 --> 00:12:37.370
that's fucking great, dude, because that's the goal, right? We're
280
00:12:37.379 --> 00:12:39.769
trying to get to a place of contentment, of peace,
281
00:12:40.269 --> 00:12:43.370
of where we've won. And that's different for everybody. So,
282
00:12:44.210 --> 00:12:47.429
you know, if that's where you are and you could truly, honestly,
283
00:12:47.909 --> 00:12:50.009
look in the mirror and think about your life, and
284
00:12:50.049 --> 00:12:53.610
I'm not talking about I'm justifying it. I'm not talking
285
00:12:53.649 --> 00:12:57.210
about telling yourselves a story. I'm not talking about convincing yourself.
286
00:12:57.649 --> 00:13:00.649
I'm talking about genuinely looking in the mirror and saying
287
00:13:00.669 --> 00:13:02.820
I'm fucking proud of the life I have, of who
288
00:13:02.899 --> 00:13:07.899
I am, and what I'm about. And you're fine with that? Congratulations, dude.
289
00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:11.159
You won the fucking game. I haven't figured it out yet,
290
00:13:11.379 --> 00:13:13.750
all right? And that's where I'm coming from. And I've
291
00:13:13.769 --> 00:13:15.990
done a lot of shit, but I got a lot
292
00:13:16.029 --> 00:13:19.000
more shit to do. So for people like me that
293
00:13:19.299 --> 00:13:21.759
identify with that and want to win and want to
294
00:13:21.799 --> 00:13:24.919
be better, that's why I've put this out. You know
295
00:13:24.940 --> 00:13:27.460
what I'm saying? And at the first, when I started
296
00:13:27.899 --> 00:13:32.620
doing the personal development, it was more like, come, come,
297
00:13:32.659 --> 00:13:34.639
you know, come do this with me. And like, not
298
00:13:34.659 --> 00:13:37.590
just 75 hard, but like winning. Like you guys, but
299
00:13:37.610 --> 00:13:41.049
what I realized is, dude, not everybody wants to win.
300
00:13:41.070 --> 00:13:45.169
And you know, for whatever reason. And do I think
301
00:13:45.230 --> 00:13:48.730
it's a shame? Sure. Do I think it's a tragedy? Yeah,
302
00:13:48.750 --> 00:13:50.830
I do, because there's a lot of wasted lives out there.
303
00:13:51.750 --> 00:13:54.230
But at the same time, you and I both know, dude,
304
00:13:54.289 --> 00:13:57.889
we can't really convince anybody to do anything. We can
305
00:13:57.990 --> 00:14:00.820
point you there. We can tell you what it's like.
306
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:04.220
We can show you the results. But unless you truly
307
00:14:04.259 --> 00:14:07.860
want it, I mean, it's a waste of breath and
308
00:14:07.899 --> 00:14:10.559
energy to try to convince. That's something I've been sort
309
00:14:10.580 --> 00:14:13.909
of realizing lately. Like I, and it's brought me some peace, bro.
310
00:14:13.990 --> 00:14:16.789
Like I used to get so fucking mad and people
311
00:14:16.809 --> 00:14:19.909
don't understand this. Like I actually want you to win.
312
00:14:20.289 --> 00:14:23.580
Like it's not some fake shit. Ben actually wants you
313
00:14:23.620 --> 00:14:26.299
to win. If it was just something that we did
314
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:29.799
for a living, we wouldn't be passionate like we are.
315
00:14:30.259 --> 00:14:32.899
We wouldn't dedicate all these extra things that we do
316
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:39.000
to actually helping people win. So, you know, it's a
317
00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:42.100
calling almost, you know what I'm saying? And so I
318
00:14:43.100 --> 00:14:46.059
don't know, like if you don't like what we're saying
319
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:47.899
and you know, maybe it's the wrong time for you.
320
00:14:48.379 --> 00:14:51.149
Maybe you're a piece of shit. Maybe you suck and
321
00:14:51.169 --> 00:14:53.210
you're going to suck. It could be a lot of
322
00:14:53.250 --> 00:14:55.230
those things, you know, but I'm not going to get
323
00:14:55.309 --> 00:14:56.899
angry at somebody if they don't want to do it.
324
00:14:56.970 --> 00:14:59.509
But I can tell you this, the gap between me
325
00:14:59.850 --> 00:15:01.389
and you is going to get a lot fucking wider.
326
00:15:02.409 --> 00:15:04.049
The gap between you and everybody else is going to
327
00:15:04.070 --> 00:15:06.529
get a lot wider if they decide to do it too. So,
328
00:15:06.690 --> 00:15:09.289
I mean, and that's what you always say, dude, right?
329
00:15:10.090 --> 00:15:13.029
What is it? Champions create distance on Fridays. That's fucking right, bro.
330
00:15:13.110 --> 00:15:15.389
And you know what's interesting about that is I've been,
331
00:15:15.919 --> 00:15:18.379
I put that out for probably six, seven years in
332
00:15:18.419 --> 00:15:18.659
a row.
333
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:20.259
I mean, it's every Friday. Every Friday.
334
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.559
And there's people who are like, what does that mean?
335
00:15:23.389 --> 00:15:25.090
I'm like, you have a problem if you got to
336
00:15:25.149 --> 00:15:27.169
ask me what that means. Like, you may not come
337
00:15:27.220 --> 00:15:29.080
up with exactly how I would say it, but it's like,
338
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:30.679
give me, like, you know what that means.
339
00:15:30.700 --> 00:15:34.100
That means you clocked out a Thursday fucking happy hour, bro.
340
00:15:34.159 --> 00:15:36.100
Like 98% of the rest of the world.
341
00:15:36.120 --> 00:15:38.659
But it's like people like, you know what that means.
342
00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:42.919
But most people, they don't, it's the self-talk. It's they
343
00:15:42.950 --> 00:15:44.470
want to have a, what does that mean?
344
00:15:45.129 --> 00:15:45.649
What do you mean?
345
00:15:45.710 --> 00:15:47.850
What does that mean? I mean, it's a basic statement.
346
00:15:47.889 --> 00:15:50.789
Like you're going to create distance on Fridays because other
347
00:15:50.830 --> 00:15:51.529
people don't.
348
00:15:51.629 --> 00:15:54.690
Yeah. That's the biggest opportunity. That's what I've been talking
349
00:15:54.710 --> 00:15:58.860
about in 2020 and 2021, bro. You know that I've
350
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:02.740
had less than seven days off my program in the last, since,
351
00:16:02.940 --> 00:16:05.860
since the lockdown started less than seven days, I've had
352
00:16:05.940 --> 00:16:09.509
six days. off my program, whether I was doing it
353
00:16:09.710 --> 00:16:13.360
like for counting or whether people thought I was just
354
00:16:13.429 --> 00:16:16.539
out living, I'm still doing this shit. You know what
355
00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:19.320
I'm saying? So, and I told people at the beginning
356
00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:22.139
of the lockdowns, I said, look, this is a tremendous opportunity.
357
00:16:22.379 --> 00:16:25.820
Everybody's going to go in their shell because remember in
358
00:16:25.860 --> 00:16:31.240
the recession back in 08, 09, 10, during that time,
359
00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:35.230
everybody in business went in their shell. They stopped trying
360
00:16:35.250 --> 00:16:39.009
to be aggressive and, and I learned a valuable lesson
361
00:16:39.029 --> 00:16:42.960
at that time because we stayed aggressive because we had to,
362
00:16:42.980 --> 00:16:45.720
because we were on the pivot point of making it
363
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:48.399
in business or not making it in business. And so
364
00:16:48.419 --> 00:16:51.059
we had to stay aggressive. And by staying aggressive, when
365
00:16:51.100 --> 00:16:53.210
everybody else pulled back, we were able to create a
366
00:16:53.330 --> 00:16:56.830
huge gap. And that's what this situation is going on
367
00:16:56.870 --> 00:16:59.250
right now in the world. How many of your friends
368
00:16:59.309 --> 00:17:01.570
have gone backwards in terms of their health, in terms
369
00:17:01.610 --> 00:17:04.329
of their physique, in terms of their mentality? You know,
370
00:17:04.809 --> 00:17:09.430
this is a time in history that is unprecedented for opportunity.
371
00:17:09.470 --> 00:17:12.339
That's how I see it. Everybody else is slowing down.
372
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:16.519
Everybody else is taking the excuses of, you know, well,
373
00:17:16.579 --> 00:17:18.839
I can't go to the gym or, you know, I
374
00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:21.960
can't go here or I can't do this or, you know,
375
00:17:23.140 --> 00:17:25.279
they're getting lazy because they don't have to go into
376
00:17:25.299 --> 00:17:27.839
the office. There's all kinds of things. And so I
377
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:30.720
saw this time as an opportunity when everybody else is quitting,
378
00:17:31.349 --> 00:17:35.109
I can go triple in and make a big gap difference.
379
00:17:35.170 --> 00:17:39.170
And guys, it's fucking happened. Okay. So this is how
380
00:17:39.230 --> 00:17:41.450
you should be looking at it as well. You should
381
00:17:41.490 --> 00:17:44.160
be looking at this, this whole situation that we have,
382
00:17:44.299 --> 00:17:49.509
the hardships and the, uh, the lockdowns and all this
383
00:17:49.589 --> 00:17:52.630
crazy shit that everybody keeps like, dude, while the world
384
00:17:52.670 --> 00:17:55.089
goes crazy, you should be getting focused and you'll create
385
00:17:55.109 --> 00:17:57.630
a huge gap between you and whoever else you're competing with.
386
00:17:58.029 --> 00:18:01.029
And don't get it wrong, dude. You are competing with people,
387
00:18:01.069 --> 00:18:02.829
whether you want to admit it or not. That's the
388
00:18:02.869 --> 00:18:07.109
nature of the society that we live in. So, you know,
389
00:18:07.369 --> 00:18:09.759
that's your choices. Your choices is you can either be
390
00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:13.140
like everybody else and go backwards or you could get focused.
391
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:17.240
And while everybody else is, you know, justifying every excuse
392
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:20.259
in the book, you have the opportunity to move forward.
393
00:18:20.299 --> 00:18:26.369
And that's what you're talking about. Champions create distance. The
394
00:18:26.420 --> 00:18:29.710
distance is everybody else clocks out on Thursday night a
395
00:18:29.750 --> 00:18:32.670
happy hour. If you don't do that, you're getting an
396
00:18:32.750 --> 00:18:36.470
extra two months a year, 52 days a year that
397
00:18:36.490 --> 00:18:39.299
you're winning. If you add Saturday onto that, That's an
398
00:18:39.359 --> 00:18:41.799
extra four months a year that you're beating over these
399
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:44.700
motherfuckers that are going out and going to happy hour
400
00:18:44.779 --> 00:18:48.180
on Thursday night and not sobering up until fucking Monday afternoon.
401
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:50.460
And the other part I don't understand about it is
402
00:18:50.519 --> 00:18:53.480
they get the Saturday and they can't even focus on
403
00:18:53.500 --> 00:18:55.779
being with their families or their significant others or the
404
00:18:55.819 --> 00:18:58.480
people that they love because they're like beating themselves up
405
00:18:58.519 --> 00:19:00.640
that they didn't do more on Friday. It's like, well,
406
00:19:00.660 --> 00:19:03.839
that was your choice to be undisciplined on Friday. And
407
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:06.480
it's your choice to do that every Friday. Talk about
408
00:19:06.529 --> 00:19:09.119
how excited you are. And then you get to Saturday,
409
00:19:09.160 --> 00:19:12.079
then you get to Sunday and you're terrified for Monday
410
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:15.509
as a result of your choices. Nobody did this to you.
411
00:19:16.230 --> 00:19:19.799
And that's where I encourage everybody start 75 hard. Don't
412
00:19:20.019 --> 00:19:22.440
think about it. Don't say I'm going to try it.
413
00:19:22.900 --> 00:19:26.059
I encourage you to do it because you'll stop doing
414
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:26.700
that on Friday.
415
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:27.000
Yeah.
416
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:29.680
You're going to say, I now recognize that every day
417
00:19:29.720 --> 00:19:32.000
is an opportunity. And especially on a day where my
418
00:19:32.059 --> 00:19:35.039
competition is going to slow down. When I kill this day,
419
00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:37.839
like I do every other day, I will create that distance.
420
00:19:37.859 --> 00:19:39.480
And when I get to Saturday, I'm going to be
421
00:19:39.549 --> 00:19:41.589
locked in and focus with my kids. Yeah. When I'm
422
00:19:41.609 --> 00:19:43.369
at their game, I'm going to be like locked in
423
00:19:43.410 --> 00:19:46.019
being like so happy that Then I'm sitting there with peace.
424
00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:48.049
My legs are crossed. I'm relaxing.
425
00:19:48.410 --> 00:19:51.329
Watching my son shoot his three-pointer. yeah as opposed to
426
00:19:51.450 --> 00:19:54.970
i'm so terrified i can't even focus on my kid
427
00:19:55.630 --> 00:19:58.799
because of what i didn't do yesterday yet we choose
428
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:00.880
like so many people you choose to do this to
429
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:03.519
yourself and that's the part like we're gonna be direct
430
00:20:03.539 --> 00:20:06.400
today because we care that much Cause it's your self talk.
431
00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:08.220
It's all, it's on you and you have to choose
432
00:20:08.259 --> 00:20:13.240
to change. What, what do you, so let's talk about
433
00:20:13.289 --> 00:20:14.490
your specific journey.
434
00:20:14.809 --> 00:20:19.029
Okay. I mean, well, why like legitimately, like why the
435
00:20:19.089 --> 00:20:21.170
fuck even do it if you're you? Cause you're already
436
00:20:21.230 --> 00:20:23.569
in shape. You're pretty good shape. All right. Now you're
437
00:20:23.630 --> 00:20:28.019
fucking jacked. Okay. That's the benefit of the program. Right. Well,
438
00:20:28.079 --> 00:20:30.480
one of the, it's actually one of the fourth or
439
00:20:30.539 --> 00:20:34.180
fifth benefits of the program. But let's talk about that, dude. Like,
440
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:36.480
I mean, what, what was it that you said? You said,
441
00:20:36.500 --> 00:20:39.509
Hey dude, I want to, I want to do this. Well, I,
442
00:20:39.849 --> 00:20:42.230
I literally just asked myself the question, why would I
443
00:20:42.309 --> 00:20:42.789
not do it?
444
00:20:42.910 --> 00:20:43.069
Yeah.
445
00:20:43.559 --> 00:20:45.880
And I had the self-talk, no reason for me to
446
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:47.180
do it. No reason for me to do it. And
447
00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:49.319
then finally I said, why would I not do this?
448
00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:52.079
And I really did see your results. Cause I remember
449
00:20:52.140 --> 00:20:54.839
conversations that you and I had where it was like,
450
00:20:55.140 --> 00:20:57.160
I'm about to make some changes. And you were like,
451
00:20:57.220 --> 00:20:59.180
people are going to see the changes that I make.
452
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:01.259
And at that point in time, there was no 75 hard.
453
00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:03.079
This is years ago. You and I haven't learned.
454
00:21:03.099 --> 00:21:04.819
I remember saying, I know I've seen it on the
455
00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:09.940
stage when we spoke together at, uh, we're at Virgin islands. Yeah. And,
456
00:21:10.690 --> 00:21:12.950
We were up there on stage and I was 350
457
00:21:12.950 --> 00:21:15.589
fucking pounds. And I said to everybody there, because I
458
00:21:15.609 --> 00:21:20.160
was embarrassed. I said, hey, I know you guys probably
459
00:21:20.180 --> 00:21:21.819
won't believe what I'm about to tell you, but I'm
460
00:21:21.859 --> 00:21:23.980
going to get fucking jacked. And the next time you
461
00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:26.039
all see me, I ain't going to look like this.
462
00:21:26.059 --> 00:21:28.420
Because I was pissed off, dude. We were in the beach.
463
00:21:28.519 --> 00:21:33.420
We were going on the boat. You know, I'm fucking
464
00:21:33.480 --> 00:21:37.119
fat as shit. I let myself go and it pissed
465
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:40.140
me off. And like, I knew that wasn't a representation
466
00:21:40.660 --> 00:21:44.859
of my knowledge set that I'm sitting there teaching the class. Right.
467
00:21:45.460 --> 00:21:46.880
So I'm like, none of these motherfuckers are even going
468
00:21:46.900 --> 00:21:49.240
to take me serious because I'm fucking fat. You know,
469
00:21:49.259 --> 00:21:51.349
I was mad. And so I decided to address the
470
00:21:51.380 --> 00:21:53.490
elephant in the room, which usually I do right away
471
00:21:53.509 --> 00:21:55.990
because that's my nature of conversation. Like, we're going to
472
00:21:56.009 --> 00:21:58.529
get right to the point, dude. And I just said,
473
00:21:58.589 --> 00:22:00.650
I said, you know, hey, I know you guys see this,
474
00:22:01.210 --> 00:22:03.710
but this ain't what it is. It's going to get fixed.
475
00:22:04.269 --> 00:22:06.339
And that was one of the big things I remember
476
00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:10.259
still to this day, bro, was like, cause that was 2015. Yeah.
477
00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:13.579
And so 2016 is when the beginning, cause that was October, 2015. Yeah.
478
00:22:13.700 --> 00:22:17.839
I had already started. I was three 50 then. And
479
00:22:17.859 --> 00:22:20.269
I had started working my way down. And I, on
480
00:22:20.329 --> 00:22:22.789
January 4th, when I started the actual thing with the
481
00:22:22.829 --> 00:22:26.190
video on first form of shit, I was three 20.
482
00:22:26.190 --> 00:22:28.809
So I lost, I'm sorry, three 30. So I lost
483
00:22:28.809 --> 00:22:32.960
20 pounds during that time. So I mean, dude, that
484
00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:36.240
moment of being there, that was a pivotal moment. Cause
485
00:22:36.269 --> 00:22:38.470
I do, I remember it clear as day because you
486
00:22:38.490 --> 00:22:41.009
had a photographer guy there and he had taken a
487
00:22:41.049 --> 00:22:44.150
picture of me. And I remember seeing the picture. I'm like, fuck,
488
00:22:45.029 --> 00:22:47.210
there's no way I'm that fucking fat, but I was,
489
00:22:47.690 --> 00:22:50.190
you know what I'm saying? And, uh, and that was,
490
00:22:50.250 --> 00:22:52.210
that was a, that was a pivotal trip for me
491
00:22:52.250 --> 00:22:53.990
to try to figure out how to really fix this
492
00:22:54.500 --> 00:22:57.599
for fucking good, not for up and down, up and down,
493
00:22:57.660 --> 00:23:00.210
up and down. And, dude, what I've discovered, you know,
494
00:23:00.390 --> 00:23:02.789
obviously with the 75 Hard program, which came out a
495
00:23:02.829 --> 00:23:05.890
few years after that, was that it does come down
496
00:23:06.250 --> 00:23:09.930
to what you're saying about self-talk and winning the conversation
497
00:23:09.970 --> 00:23:12.640
between the two voices that we all have, which is
498
00:23:12.680 --> 00:23:15.000
the boss voice, the voice that makes you believe in yourself,
499
00:23:15.400 --> 00:23:18.099
that tells you the things that are painful to hear,
500
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:20.119
that tells you the things you really don't want to
501
00:23:20.140 --> 00:23:23.329
hear but know are true, okay, and the bitch voice,
502
00:23:23.369 --> 00:23:25.809
the one that says, ah, dude, it's okay. It's all right.
503
00:23:26.170 --> 00:23:28.789
It's not fucking all right. because you're living below your
504
00:23:28.809 --> 00:23:31.849
potential and that, that lower potential not only hurts you,
505
00:23:31.869 --> 00:23:34.970
it hurts your fucking family. It hurts your fucking neighbors.
506
00:23:35.250 --> 00:23:37.990
It hurts your peers. And to be completely honest, when
507
00:23:38.009 --> 00:23:40.269
you look at the state of this country, living below
508
00:23:40.329 --> 00:23:43.049
our fucking potential hurts the whole fucking country. If you
509
00:23:43.069 --> 00:23:46.089
want to talk about trickle down. So that's a, that's
510
00:23:46.130 --> 00:23:48.910
an obligation. I believe that we all have as, as humans.
511
00:23:49.390 --> 00:23:52.390
Now you don't have to believe it's an obligation. You
512
00:23:52.410 --> 00:23:54.369
don't have to take it that serious. I just do.
513
00:23:54.450 --> 00:23:56.460
And I know you do as well, you know, but.
514
00:23:56.430 --> 00:24:00.109
That, your passion behind it right there that's why i
515
00:24:00.150 --> 00:24:02.809
did it i saw your change and i said why
516
00:24:02.970 --> 00:24:05.150
why would i not do this i said i'm going
517
00:24:05.170 --> 00:24:07.990
all in yeah because i fucking did and i've never
518
00:24:08.029 --> 00:24:10.400
been like a huge drinker but i enjoy drinking i
519
00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:12.380
enjoy having a glass of wine with my wife and
520
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:15.779
okay i'm not gonna i can't I can't drink.
521
00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:16.980
Right. That's what I think.
522
00:24:17.009 --> 00:24:19.869
That's probably, that's probably the one that most people don't
523
00:24:19.910 --> 00:24:22.230
start the program because alcohol. I mean, there's probably one
524
00:24:22.289 --> 00:24:23.509
most common if I were to guess.
525
00:24:23.690 --> 00:24:26.210
Yeah. It's probably, I can't give up alcohol. Yeah. And
526
00:24:26.250 --> 00:24:28.609
what I said, why can't you? Well, I, the reason
527
00:24:28.650 --> 00:24:30.490
most people do that is the same reason we all
528
00:24:30.529 --> 00:24:32.769
do that. What happens is we get in a habit
529
00:24:33.390 --> 00:24:36.660
of our, it's our social construct, right? It's our habits.
530
00:24:36.759 --> 00:24:39.680
It's our habitual life. What do we do for entertainment?
531
00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:43.380
We go to dinner and we have drinks. What do
532
00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:46.009
we do on Sunday? We go watch the game at
533
00:24:46.029 --> 00:24:49.390
the bar for brunch and mimosas. They turn into fucking
534
00:24:49.470 --> 00:24:52.069
all day drink fest. You know, those are the things
535
00:24:52.130 --> 00:24:55.900
that we all identify with. And sometimes, you know, we,
536
00:24:56.190 --> 00:25:00.500
we grow, those things come with us from, from college
537
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:02.720
all the way through our whole lives or, you know,
538
00:25:02.819 --> 00:25:05.960
high school. And so our perception of how we live
539
00:25:06.019 --> 00:25:09.089
our lives is, It's hard for people to see, like,
540
00:25:09.109 --> 00:25:10.970
what would my life look like without that aspect? I
541
00:25:10.990 --> 00:25:13.029
would have no friends. I would have no social life.
542
00:25:13.509 --> 00:25:15.609
I wouldn't have any fun because most of the fun
543
00:25:15.650 --> 00:25:18.450
times happen when I'm drunk. And dude, it's just all
544
00:25:18.490 --> 00:25:21.130
not true. You know, and it goes into what you
545
00:25:21.170 --> 00:25:24.410
were saying about the time aspect. What actually happens is
546
00:25:24.450 --> 00:25:27.369
you get your fucking shit together and you discover that
547
00:25:27.390 --> 00:25:30.569
you actually have way more time to do the important
548
00:25:30.630 --> 00:25:32.690
things that you need to do.
549
00:25:32.809 --> 00:25:36.319
You become so efficient with your time because you have to.
550
00:25:37.420 --> 00:25:40.130
And I encourage everybody, if you're going to do it,
551
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:44.019
read the book. The workouts are three hours apart. Not two,
552
00:25:44.119 --> 00:25:45.819
not an hour and a half, not I do my
553
00:25:45.940 --> 00:25:47.980
outside and I got a busy schedule today, so I
554
00:25:48.019 --> 00:25:49.619
come in and get my lift in after that.
555
00:25:49.640 --> 00:25:50.140
No, no, no.
556
00:25:50.500 --> 00:25:54.119
It's three hours apart. It's no little nibbles on your
557
00:25:54.160 --> 00:25:57.210
kid's chocolate chip cookies. It's no stealing a chicken finger.
558
00:25:57.250 --> 00:26:00.029
One motherfucking chicken finger. No stealing one chicken finger. Not
559
00:26:00.069 --> 00:26:02.210
even a bite of a chicken finger. If you're going
560
00:26:02.230 --> 00:26:05.170
to do it, do it. You know, Coach Saban in Alabama,
561
00:26:05.190 --> 00:26:06.680
if you guys were to come to practice with me,
562
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:09.000
always tells us the way you do one thing is
563
00:26:09.019 --> 00:26:11.170
the way you do everything. So if you're going to
564
00:26:11.230 --> 00:26:13.630
cheat and eat that chicken finger, because who's going to
565
00:26:13.670 --> 00:26:14.910
know that I ate the chicken finger?
566
00:26:15.230 --> 00:26:16.119
Guess what? You're a cheat.
567
00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:19.759
And you're not cheating DJ. You're not cheating Andy. You're
568
00:26:19.779 --> 00:26:23.430
cheating yourself. This is your opportunity to figure out how
569
00:26:23.569 --> 00:26:27.029
strong can you be? And I'm not talking physical strength.
570
00:26:27.549 --> 00:26:28.670
People start this because.
571
00:26:28.549 --> 00:26:30.230
They're like, oh, man, look at Andy.
572
00:26:30.269 --> 00:26:32.140
He's jacked now. I mean, look how big he is.
573
00:26:32.190 --> 00:26:34.380
Or look at this guy. Look at this gal. Look
574
00:26:34.420 --> 00:26:36.910
how strong they are. I wish we could get a
575
00:26:36.930 --> 00:26:40.420
peek inside your brain and see like the veins popping
576
00:26:40.440 --> 00:26:43.240
out of your brain now, right? Like everything going on
577
00:26:43.279 --> 00:26:46.480
in your brain from the strength that people develop from going,
578
00:26:46.960 --> 00:26:50.789
there's a level of focus, awareness, intentionality that I now
579
00:26:50.869 --> 00:26:54.690
experience every day as a result of going through this program.
580
00:26:54.950 --> 00:26:56.690
I was joking with you guys before we got rolling.
581
00:26:57.230 --> 00:26:59.450
I now make pancakes for my kids in the morning.
582
00:27:00.420 --> 00:27:04.420
to continue to test myself because unless it's a Saturday
583
00:27:04.440 --> 00:27:06.109
and even like for me now, a cheat day with
584
00:27:06.140 --> 00:27:07.849
pancakes is protein pancakes.
585
00:27:08.029 --> 00:27:08.369
That's it.
586
00:27:08.410 --> 00:27:10.890
I don't even eat regular pancakes. Like, and my cheat
587
00:27:10.950 --> 00:27:13.069
is the protein pancakes. And a lot of people would
588
00:27:13.089 --> 00:27:15.849
eat protein pancakes every day. Like, oh, that's not a cheat.
589
00:27:15.910 --> 00:27:18.890
Like to me, protein pancakes was a cheat. You put
590
00:27:18.910 --> 00:27:21.140
the syrup on, you know, you're going to sneak butter on.
591
00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:24.039
Guess what? If you're on 75 hard, that's a damn cheat. Yeah.
592
00:27:24.059 --> 00:27:26.200
I didn't eat protein pancakes when I was on. So
593
00:27:26.259 --> 00:27:28.579
everybody's looking for the excuse, the edge. Like if you're
594
00:27:28.599 --> 00:27:31.690
going to do it, then do it. Stop cheating yourself
595
00:27:31.750 --> 00:27:34.609
because if you get sloppy in one area, I promise you,
596
00:27:34.630 --> 00:27:35.869
you'll get sloppy in another area.
597
00:27:35.910 --> 00:27:39.339
That's the difference between, okay, like let's fucking address the
598
00:27:39.380 --> 00:27:41.460
elephant in the room. There's a lot of motherfuckers that
599
00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:44.099
have completed this program. It didn't really complete it. They
600
00:27:44.140 --> 00:27:47.039
talk about it, but you and I and other motherfuckers
601
00:27:47.079 --> 00:27:52.309
that have actually done it true, understand who we're talking
602
00:27:52.329 --> 00:27:55.440
to when we talk to them. And look, it's, I
603
00:27:55.500 --> 00:27:58.609
can see. I don't understand. The ones who fake their
604
00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:01.470
way through, they don't understand that it's easy to see
605
00:28:01.509 --> 00:28:02.369
for the ones that didn't.
606
00:28:02.650 --> 00:28:04.119
Well, here's what I'll tell you. All you have to
607
00:28:04.180 --> 00:28:06.250
do is look at the before and after picture. And
608
00:28:06.269 --> 00:28:08.670
I'm not saying somebody has to be ripped, but there's
609
00:28:08.710 --> 00:28:11.150
a significant change. There will be a significant change in
610
00:28:11.269 --> 00:28:13.369
your muscle structure. You do not have to have a
611
00:28:13.430 --> 00:28:15.380
six pack when you're done with the program, but your
612
00:28:15.470 --> 00:28:18.640
muscle structure, the way that your shoulders sit, the way
613
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:19.660
that your traps pop.
614
00:28:19.700 --> 00:28:21.339
I mean, you will look different.
615
00:28:21.380 --> 00:28:21.579
Yeah.
616
00:28:21.700 --> 00:28:24.140
And if you're real heavy, you know, let's just say
617
00:28:24.160 --> 00:28:26.910
you're very, very heavy. You'll still see a difference. You're
618
00:28:26.930 --> 00:28:28.269
going to see a big difference. You're going to look
619
00:28:28.289 --> 00:28:32.109
a lot. You might look similar in shape, but it's smaller. Okay.
620
00:28:32.170 --> 00:28:34.009
Which is the first phase for people who are like,
621
00:28:34.329 --> 00:28:36.650
when I lost my first 50 pounds, when I was
622
00:28:36.670 --> 00:28:39.940
three 50, I didn't look ripped. I just looked smaller
623
00:28:40.299 --> 00:28:42.180
version of three 50. But if I would have seen you,
624
00:28:42.220 --> 00:28:43.559
you would have been able to look at those pictures.
625
00:28:43.579 --> 00:28:45.359
You'd say, what is Andy doing? Yes.
626
00:28:45.640 --> 00:28:48.309
And so I think you got to stop comparing yourself
627
00:28:48.349 --> 00:28:51.009
to somebody else. You have to say, I'm going all
628
00:28:51.109 --> 00:28:54.250
in for me to finally figure out how great can
629
00:28:54.329 --> 00:28:56.549
I be? And as a result of challenging myself to
630
00:28:56.609 --> 00:28:58.940
do that, Like Andy says, is it really going to
631
00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:01.519
show up in other areas of my life? I promise
632
00:29:01.539 --> 00:29:03.980
you that it will. Dude, I remember when you guys
633
00:29:04.019 --> 00:29:05.599
brought me in, you and Ed, it was such an
634
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:07.779
honor for me to speak for the Arte Syndicate.
635
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:09.009
It was awesome.
636
00:29:09.680 --> 00:29:12.559
And some of the relationships and people, and you talk about,
637
00:29:13.059 --> 00:29:16.059
side note, talk about abundance. I literally sent Emily, because
638
00:29:16.099 --> 00:29:18.539
this is the way we operate, right? And I sent Emily,
639
00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:20.240
I'm like, will it be okay? Like some people have
640
00:29:20.279 --> 00:29:22.859
reached out for coaching. Like, is it okay? Because you
641
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:25.920
guys are, it's technically like a coaching practice. Emily goes,
642
00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:29.140
oh my God, please. And so like, that's abundance, right?
643
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:31.289
It wasn't like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Ben, we had you speak,
644
00:29:31.309 --> 00:29:33.869
but stay away. No, but here's the thing, Ben, and
645
00:29:34.390 --> 00:29:36.970
Ed will tell you the same. Ed and I both truly,
646
00:29:38.309 --> 00:29:41.140
truly believe in the mission of that Of that group
647
00:29:41.640 --> 00:29:43.819
And the mission of that group Is to get fucking
648
00:29:43.880 --> 00:29:47.049
better And if You can help Our team get better
649
00:29:47.509 --> 00:29:49.750
They become your team You're part of the same team
650
00:29:50.210 --> 00:29:53.769
And these Dude this is People have such a hard
651
00:29:53.809 --> 00:29:56.329
time Understanding that Because it's so rare That's what it
652
00:29:56.430 --> 00:29:58.170
is And I truly I mean we could go on
653
00:29:58.210 --> 00:30:00.740
about Abundance but I really think that's the whole key
654
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:03.740
to success, bro. But the, even this, the seeds there
655
00:30:03.779 --> 00:30:05.400
were planted for the whole, I mean, it's just, there
656
00:30:05.420 --> 00:30:07.859
was just so much that happened. Just some of the
657
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:09.519
things that you said to me that day, some of
658
00:30:09.539 --> 00:30:10.900
the things that, cause we chopped it up and did
659
00:30:10.940 --> 00:30:13.140
Q and a at the end. And it's just such
660
00:30:13.160 --> 00:30:15.240
a great opportunity for me to continue to learn from you,
661
00:30:15.279 --> 00:30:17.609
to learn from Ed. And you know, we're just going,
662
00:30:17.700 --> 00:30:20.869
it was, I appreciate that. It's a culmination that just
663
00:30:20.930 --> 00:30:22.869
led to like, I'm going all in, like I'm doing this,
664
00:30:23.349 --> 00:30:24.309
like I'm doing this.
665
00:30:24.690 --> 00:30:25.609
You fucking crushed it.
666
00:30:25.769 --> 00:30:31.630
It is. I appreciate you saying that, but I still
667
00:30:31.670 --> 00:30:35.259
don't feel like I'm done. That's the crazy part. And
668
00:30:35.339 --> 00:30:38.660
I will never be finished. I don't even want to
669
00:30:38.700 --> 00:30:41.240
be finished. I have this crazy workout that I do
670
00:30:41.299 --> 00:30:45.359
called the unrequired. It's 10 exercises. It takes 45 minutes.
671
00:30:45.779 --> 00:30:48.099
Most people, when I send it to them, they'll be like,
672
00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:53.589
I can't do this once. This morning was the 754th
673
00:30:53.670 --> 00:30:56.589
straight day that I've done this. Not like a kick.
674
00:30:56.940 --> 00:30:59.980
It's 10 exercises. And I'm talking like you plank for
675
00:31:00.019 --> 00:31:04.839
almost 10 minutes, 250 straight jumping jacks, 250 straight air squats.
676
00:31:04.859 --> 00:31:05.960
Like it's not easy.
677
00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:08.059
I'm not talking about like I went and just did
678
00:31:08.059 --> 00:31:10.720
10 pushups a day for seven, like most people can't
679
00:31:10.779 --> 00:31:14.460
do it one time. And you just become obsessed with
680
00:31:14.500 --> 00:31:16.700
how great that you can be. And that's what I
681
00:31:16.740 --> 00:31:20.309
was doing. That was the excuse for not doing 75 hard.
682
00:31:20.809 --> 00:31:22.910
And then you started to realize, Oh, you bring all
683
00:31:22.950 --> 00:31:27.579
this together. And then you just become obsessed. And I
684
00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:30.980
always like to say, don't be seduced by success. It
685
00:31:31.059 --> 00:31:31.579
makes you.
686
00:31:31.519 --> 00:31:34.420
Realize and crave like, what's the next book that I
687
00:31:34.460 --> 00:31:35.140
can read? Yeah.
688
00:31:35.200 --> 00:31:36.900
What's the, who's the next person that I can meet?
689
00:31:36.920 --> 00:31:39.240
What's the next challenge that I can go through? What
690
00:31:39.279 --> 00:31:42.339
can I learn now? And that has nothing to do
691
00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:43.720
with physical appearance.
692
00:31:43.960 --> 00:31:44.140
No.
693
00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:47.210
Physical appearance has to do with that change that you're
694
00:31:47.230 --> 00:31:47.809
talking about.
695
00:31:48.490 --> 00:31:50.470
Just wanting to be the best that you can be.
696
00:31:50.490 --> 00:31:54.130
And I, I think a lot of what I've experienced, like,
697
00:31:54.660 --> 00:31:57.819
I knew I cannot cheat. And I think for guys
698
00:31:57.859 --> 00:32:00.819
like you and I, people are going to watch, right?
699
00:32:01.019 --> 00:32:03.839
And so I forced an environment. You start posting that
700
00:32:03.880 --> 00:32:07.200
every day, people are going to be like, hey, weren't
701
00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:12.109
you doing 75 hard? So there was no cheating the system.
702
00:32:12.410 --> 00:32:15.509
And so I would encourage everybody, number one, start. Don't
703
00:32:15.670 --> 00:32:19.289
pick the strategic time. I had vacation with my wife.
704
00:32:19.329 --> 00:32:21.130
She wanted to kill me. We went to the coolest place,
705
00:32:21.170 --> 00:32:25.170
Blackberry Farms. right outside of Knoxville, Tennessee. This place was amazing.
706
00:32:25.210 --> 00:32:28.170
It's one of like the... like second biggest wine collection
707
00:32:28.190 --> 00:32:31.490
in the United States. I was on 75 hard. I
708
00:32:31.579 --> 00:32:32.430
couldn't drink wine.
709
00:32:32.490 --> 00:32:34.240
She was like, why do you have to be doing this?
710
00:32:34.259 --> 00:32:36.640
She's like, I understand. But like, how easy could it
711
00:32:36.680 --> 00:32:38.140
have been for me to just cheat DJ? I could
712
00:32:38.160 --> 00:32:40.480
have been like, Hey babe, just you and me here.
713
00:32:40.720 --> 00:32:40.900
Right.
714
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:43.440
I just, or I'll do a tasting. Yeah. I'll just
715
00:32:43.480 --> 00:32:46.079
do a tasting. It's not drinking. No, I didn't drink
716
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:47.599
any wine. And guess what?
717
00:32:47.640 --> 00:32:47.880
Yeah.
718
00:32:48.140 --> 00:32:49.880
I had an amazing time with my wife. You know,
719
00:32:49.900 --> 00:32:53.349
what's funny dude is as easy as that would be
720
00:32:53.529 --> 00:32:59.829
to do. It doesn't, Like, I would never want my
721
00:32:59.930 --> 00:33:03.460
wife to look at me like I'm a fucking weak bitch. So, like,
722
00:33:03.519 --> 00:33:05.759
you know what I'm saying? You get what I'm saying? Like,
723
00:33:05.799 --> 00:33:08.700
the pressure of her watching you, even though she's upset,
724
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:11.660
probably made you hear more. I said it when I
725
00:33:11.700 --> 00:33:14.089
spoke for Arte. I said it when we were doing
726
00:33:14.109 --> 00:33:16.150
the Q & A. I said, Andy, what would happen
727
00:33:16.829 --> 00:33:18.230
if you would have said to me, hey, Ben, how
728
00:33:18.250 --> 00:33:21.130
was your morning routine today? And I would have been like... Andy,
729
00:33:21.150 --> 00:33:22.670
you know, I just, I didn't feel like waking up.
730
00:33:22.730 --> 00:33:24.869
I hit the snooze button 13 times, had a big
731
00:33:24.910 --> 00:33:28.609
fat stack of pancakes, scheduled or rescheduled my first three
732
00:33:28.650 --> 00:33:29.250
calls because I.
733
00:33:29.230 --> 00:33:31.710
Wanted to be ready for you guys. Yeah, yeah.
734
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:32.079
Right?
735
00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:33.640
I'm a fake. I'm a fraud.
736
00:33:33.700 --> 00:33:36.900
I coach people on discipline and accountability. And so part
737
00:33:36.920 --> 00:33:39.099
of it is you have to choose, first challenge yourself,
738
00:33:39.140 --> 00:33:41.859
but then choose the environment and build the environment that's
739
00:33:41.880 --> 00:33:42.759
going to cause you to do it.
740
00:33:42.940 --> 00:33:43.140
Yeah.
741
00:33:43.319 --> 00:33:45.289
And then the feeling that you get when you win
742
00:33:45.369 --> 00:33:48.009
because you push yourself to do it. I cannot go
743
00:33:48.029 --> 00:33:51.319
speak for Arateh And be a fake who doesn't do
744
00:33:51.359 --> 00:33:51.940
what he says.
745
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:54.180
He's going to do. That's not the way that life works.
746
00:33:54.220 --> 00:33:54.440
No.
747
00:33:54.700 --> 00:33:58.039
And people think. They see people who are successful. Well,
748
00:33:58.059 --> 00:34:00.259
how'd they get there? Cut corners, giving it to them.
749
00:34:00.599 --> 00:34:02.119
Most people had to work for it.
750
00:34:02.220 --> 00:34:06.079
Yeah, most. Most. Not like, there's very few that- The fucking,
751
00:34:06.380 --> 00:34:09.820
the rule that people think it is, which is you
752
00:34:09.840 --> 00:34:12.699
got lucky or you inherit it, that's the fucking exception
753
00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:15.329
to the rule. And listen, motherfuckers, not a single one
754
00:34:15.349 --> 00:34:17.690
of you motherfuckers listening to this is the exception to
755
00:34:17.730 --> 00:34:20.989
that rule. It's not fucking happening. You're not winning the lottery.
756
00:34:21.269 --> 00:34:24.110
You're not getting an inheritance. The fucking stars are not
757
00:34:24.170 --> 00:34:27.699
going to align. Now what? You got to build the skills.
758
00:34:28.110 --> 00:34:31.070
You got to build the ability to persevere, to endure,
759
00:34:31.349 --> 00:34:34.659
to have grit, to understand that what you put in,
760
00:34:34.699 --> 00:34:38.079
you will get out. And those are responsibilities of the individual.
761
00:34:38.420 --> 00:34:42.630
They are not the responsibilities of society. Okay. If society
762
00:34:43.190 --> 00:34:45.690
left it up to the way they have it, they
763
00:34:45.750 --> 00:34:48.250
want you to be a consumer of them. So they
764
00:34:48.309 --> 00:34:50.309
want you to sit on the couch. They want you
765
00:34:50.329 --> 00:34:52.730
to order the fucking pizza. They want you to eat
766
00:34:52.750 --> 00:34:55.360
the Doritos. They want you to eat the Krispy Kreme
767
00:34:55.679 --> 00:34:59.260
because you're a better consumer when you do so. And bro,
768
00:34:59.659 --> 00:35:01.780
that is not what life is. You are not meant
769
00:35:01.820 --> 00:35:04.079
to be born and be a part of a fucking
770
00:35:04.119 --> 00:35:07.940
economy and just consume shit. You're meant to become what
771
00:35:07.980 --> 00:35:10.500
it is you were meant to become. And most of us,
772
00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:12.739
and the reason I say us, even though me and
773
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:15.929
you are killing it, is because we all feel the
774
00:35:15.989 --> 00:35:19.889
effects of this nationwide. We all feel the effects right
775
00:35:19.929 --> 00:35:22.510
now of mediocrity, all of us. We all feel the
776
00:35:22.570 --> 00:35:26.989
effects of cutting corners, all of us. We all feel
777
00:35:27.010 --> 00:35:30.010
the effects of people not educating themselves, all of us.
778
00:35:30.409 --> 00:35:33.110
And all of those things can be corrected by taking
779
00:35:33.150 --> 00:35:37.429
the personal responsibility for our own ability to move forward
780
00:35:37.449 --> 00:35:39.889
and our own discipline, our own grit, our own fortitude,
781
00:35:39.929 --> 00:35:44.230
our own ability to do the fucking work. Okay. Those
782
00:35:44.289 --> 00:35:46.909
are the things that are going to fix everything. And
783
00:35:46.949 --> 00:35:49.230
it starts with the individual. And this is why I'm
784
00:35:49.289 --> 00:35:53.929
so fucking passionate about this program and RSA and first form.
785
00:35:54.269 --> 00:35:58.510
And pretty much everything I do is because the ripple
786
00:35:58.570 --> 00:35:59.610
effect comes from that.
787
00:36:00.869 --> 00:36:02.889
I don't know what you just said that made me
788
00:36:02.929 --> 00:36:05.969
think of this. One of my other favorite comments is
789
00:36:06.010 --> 00:36:08.320
when people like see you're on phase one. I didn't
790
00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:10.480
know there was a phase one. Tell me about phase.
791
00:36:11.960 --> 00:36:13.429
I know. Wait a second.
792
00:36:14.079 --> 00:36:15.780
What do you mean you didn't know? Where do I
793
00:36:15.820 --> 00:36:18.260
find out the information for phase one? Like the immediate
794
00:36:18.280 --> 00:36:20.639
thing I want to say is there's a damn good chance.
795
00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:23.340
You actually didn't complete 75 hard. If you didn't even
796
00:36:23.380 --> 00:36:26.889
know there was a phase one, like if you follow Andy,
797
00:36:26.969 --> 00:36:29.650
like templates, like I always tell them, like, cause I
798
00:36:29.670 --> 00:36:30.550
don't know why they asked me.
799
00:36:30.610 --> 00:36:32.429
I didn't create the program. You and I are friends.
800
00:36:32.969 --> 00:36:35.869
Like I created the program. The reason they ask you, bro,
801
00:36:35.889 --> 00:36:37.860
is the same reason they asked Sean Whalen. And they
802
00:36:37.929 --> 00:36:40.880
ask other people who have just fucking crushed it. It's
803
00:36:40.940 --> 00:36:44.099
because they, they see you as the authority now that
804
00:36:44.119 --> 00:36:45.219
you've went through the process.
805
00:36:45.980 --> 00:36:48.360
But I send them to, I say, it says templates
806
00:36:48.500 --> 00:36:51.139
right on his, on his Instagram page. Just go to
807
00:36:51.179 --> 00:36:53.949
templates there. And people act like, what is phase? There's
808
00:36:54.010 --> 00:36:56.210
a third phase. Let me be real with you. Because
809
00:36:56.250 --> 00:36:58.869
people want the easy way. Dude, I gotta be real
810
00:36:58.889 --> 00:36:59.409
for a second.
811
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:03.690
But doesn't that exact thing kind of answer some questions
812
00:37:03.730 --> 00:37:05.550
for you of why things are the way they are?
813
00:37:05.789 --> 00:37:08.650
That's my point. Like, bro, I'm like looking around like this.
814
00:37:08.849 --> 00:37:11.369
Once they finish the first, they're like, I pray to
815
00:37:11.469 --> 00:37:15.309
God there's nothing else. Yeah, dude. And if that's the case,
816
00:37:15.449 --> 00:37:17.599
if you feel that way, bro, you didn't fucking do it.
817
00:37:17.809 --> 00:37:20.349
That's right. I was craving.
818
00:37:20.469 --> 00:37:20.710
Yes.
819
00:37:20.929 --> 00:37:22.489
Do you know how pissed off I was? I couldn't
820
00:37:22.510 --> 00:37:24.889
start phase three until the final 30 days. I'm like,
821
00:37:24.949 --> 00:37:27.199
let me get at this thing. Let me get at it.
822
00:37:27.699 --> 00:37:29.699
And I even, you and I messaged, it was, the
823
00:37:29.739 --> 00:37:32.679
conversation was awesome. And I was like, I was literally
824
00:37:32.719 --> 00:37:36.500
thinking to myself, does Andy walk around talking to strangers? Like,
825
00:37:36.539 --> 00:37:38.500
this is crazy. Like this is the one thing out
826
00:37:38.519 --> 00:37:40.219
of this whole damn program. How's this going to work?
827
00:37:40.429 --> 00:37:41.489
And what did I tell you? That was one of
828
00:37:41.510 --> 00:37:44.309
the coolest fricking things. I remember I was driving down
829
00:37:44.349 --> 00:37:45.570
the street one day and I was like, got to
830
00:37:45.610 --> 00:37:48.289
find a stranger. And there was this old man. I
831
00:37:48.329 --> 00:37:50.349
can't remember the damn name on his hat, but there's
832
00:37:50.369 --> 00:37:53.710
this old man. He's walking right by the Ritz and
833
00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:56.530
I pull over and I say, sir, I said, can
834
00:37:56.570 --> 00:37:58.489
we talk for a moment? I said, every day I
835
00:37:58.510 --> 00:38:01.110
like to meet somebody new. This old guy must have
836
00:38:01.130 --> 00:38:03.090
been 85 years old. He walks over to the car.
837
00:38:03.369 --> 00:38:05.389
He starts talking. He's got this name on his hat.
838
00:38:05.449 --> 00:38:07.550
I said, tell me about yourself. Well, I fought in
839
00:38:07.570 --> 00:38:09.449
the wars and we did. It was one of the
840
00:38:09.469 --> 00:38:10.389
coolest conversations.
841
00:38:10.809 --> 00:38:13.820
The name on his hat, he said, Caterpillar didn't start
842
00:38:13.840 --> 00:38:16.619
with hats like this. I created the hats like this.
843
00:38:16.659 --> 00:38:18.480
He goes, you see the name? It was one of
844
00:38:18.500 --> 00:38:22.059
the coolest stories. I'm like, without the program, I would
845
00:38:22.099 --> 00:38:26.079
have never stopped. Yeah. To talk to a stranger. I
846
00:38:26.079 --> 00:38:28.119
talk to strangers in stores and things. Right. Yeah.
847
00:38:28.179 --> 00:38:30.619
But like to pull the car over and meet this
848
00:38:30.699 --> 00:38:32.800
old man, it was hotter than hell outside. And he
849
00:38:32.840 --> 00:38:33.820
was getting his walk in.
850
00:38:33.940 --> 00:38:34.179
Yeah.
851
00:38:34.420 --> 00:38:37.280
And he had fought for our country, created this hat,
852
00:38:37.380 --> 00:38:40.059
the pride that man had for life at 85 or
853
00:38:40.099 --> 00:38:42.699
whatever age he was. But because of the program, it
854
00:38:42.780 --> 00:38:46.000
causes you to get uncomfortable. Like that was uncomfortable. Those
855
00:38:46.079 --> 00:38:49.800
cold showers are uncomfortable. Until they aren't.
856
00:38:49.889 --> 00:38:50.119
But you.
857
00:38:50.869 --> 00:38:53.170
But you do it. And now there's sometimes I'm like,
858
00:38:53.389 --> 00:38:54.449
I'm going to get a little cold shower.
859
00:38:54.469 --> 00:38:54.980
That's it, dude.
860
00:38:55.000 --> 00:38:57.260
But you start to do all these things and you
861
00:38:57.280 --> 00:39:01.320
start to realize like you find out when you're uncomfortable,
862
00:39:01.380 --> 00:39:04.219
when you experience pain, that's where your real strength comes from.
863
00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:04.800
A hundred percent.
864
00:39:04.840 --> 00:39:08.090
And people are scared of challenge. They're scared of adversity.
865
00:39:08.989 --> 00:39:12.210
Get in the fire. Go experience what the pain is
866
00:39:12.230 --> 00:39:14.530
because the pain is where you find your true grit,
867
00:39:14.550 --> 00:39:17.820
your true conviction, your true passion. your true purpose for
868
00:39:17.900 --> 00:39:20.949
doing what you're doing. And once again, back to the beginning,
869
00:39:21.469 --> 00:39:23.510
why are we so bad for being this direct to
870
00:39:23.550 --> 00:39:26.289
encourage you to go find that within yourself? If that's
871
00:39:26.329 --> 00:39:29.690
what unlocks you to understand what you were truly destined
872
00:39:29.730 --> 00:39:32.380
to do, in your life, why.
873
00:39:32.239 --> 00:39:34.400
Would you fight trying something like this? Not only that,
874
00:39:35.320 --> 00:39:38.760
what's more noble in life than helping someone discover that?
875
00:39:40.059 --> 00:39:42.559
So let's say you're someone like you and I and
876
00:39:42.579 --> 00:39:43.960
a couple of the other guys in the room here
877
00:39:44.360 --> 00:39:47.150
who have finished that program and you want to talk
878
00:39:47.190 --> 00:39:50.409
to someone about it. That's a good thing. You're, you're,
879
00:39:50.510 --> 00:39:52.969
you're opening their eyes and you're going to make them better.
880
00:39:53.010 --> 00:39:55.030
I just did a little, a show, a little Andy
881
00:39:55.050 --> 00:39:59.969
cam earlier, um, talking about accountability. You know, one of
882
00:40:00.010 --> 00:40:03.349
the reasons that most people can't push accountability and hold
883
00:40:03.389 --> 00:40:05.130
other people to the line is because they're not holding
884
00:40:05.150 --> 00:40:07.070
it to their own line. You know what I'm saying?
885
00:40:07.510 --> 00:40:09.639
So like when you, when you fucking, when you have
886
00:40:09.659 --> 00:40:12.019
to go to, you know, have a meeting or have
887
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:15.739
a difficult discussion or, uh, you know, these things that
888
00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:18.340
are sort of confrontational type things that people don't like.
889
00:40:18.780 --> 00:40:20.820
which are, by the way, required to be a great
890
00:40:20.860 --> 00:40:23.909
leader or run a company or run a team, okay,
891
00:40:25.690 --> 00:40:27.750
if you're not doing that, the likelihood is the reason
892
00:40:27.769 --> 00:40:29.699
you have a hard time doing it and it hurts
893
00:40:29.739 --> 00:40:31.179
so much is because you're not holding yourself to that
894
00:40:31.199 --> 00:40:33.820
same shit. And that's it. That's why Nick Saban can
895
00:40:33.840 --> 00:40:36.739
fucking say, this is how I need it done. Not
896
00:40:36.780 --> 00:40:39.989
because he's out there snapping the football perfectly or throwing
897
00:40:40.030 --> 00:40:43.050
perfect spirals, but because he is living his life in
898
00:40:43.190 --> 00:40:46.070
other ways the same exact way, the same principles.
899
00:40:46.150 --> 00:40:48.230
I'll tell you what's crazy, though. He still coaches the
900
00:40:48.269 --> 00:40:50.989
defensive backs. He can spin it better than most quarterbacks.
901
00:40:51.489 --> 00:40:54.150
He loves getting down and dirty with the guys. Guess
902
00:40:54.190 --> 00:40:57.880
who sprints in between all drills at practice?
903
00:40:58.840 --> 00:40:59.780
Not surprising.
904
00:40:59.800 --> 00:41:03.000
He's about to turn 70 years old And Nick Saban
905
00:41:03.179 --> 00:41:06.699
sprints in between each drill. So there is a line
906
00:41:06.739 --> 00:41:10.019
that is drawn. If you are a player or a coach,
907
00:41:11.070 --> 00:41:14.429
you better get yourself from point A to point B
908
00:41:14.530 --> 00:41:17.469
as fast as you possibly can because there's only so
909
00:41:17.510 --> 00:41:20.670
much time the NCAA gives us on these clocks. And
910
00:41:20.710 --> 00:41:23.980
so he sprints in between drills. First practice I went
911
00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:26.619
to and I saw it, it was just like, I've
912
00:41:26.659 --> 00:41:30.219
been given a doctorate in leadership. I can't even believe
913
00:41:30.260 --> 00:41:32.909
they pay me to be there. I could pay them
914
00:41:33.619 --> 00:41:36.230
a lot of money for the doctorate that I've earned
915
00:41:36.349 --> 00:41:39.889
in watching that man lead. And the greatest lessons are
916
00:41:39.909 --> 00:41:42.670
the most simple lessons. Him sprinting is one of the
917
00:41:42.710 --> 00:41:47.070
greatest lessons that you'll see. His level of discipline is extraordinary.
918
00:41:47.570 --> 00:41:49.829
So are you not going to run in between drills?
919
00:41:50.369 --> 00:41:50.690
Please.
920
00:41:51.760 --> 00:41:57.130
You better be running between drills. But it's expectation. And
921
00:41:57.190 --> 00:41:59.570
it's also what you were just referring to that led
922
00:41:59.610 --> 00:42:01.469
me to think of this. It's a level of tolerance.
923
00:42:02.090 --> 00:42:06.230
If you're a leader and there's a lack of discipline...
924
00:42:06.760 --> 00:42:10.280
in the people that you lead, there's probably a level
925
00:42:10.320 --> 00:42:14.380
of tolerance that you have for undisciplined behavior because you
926
00:42:14.480 --> 00:42:17.320
are undisciplined. And I know that's hard to hear, but
927
00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:20.400
that's the reality of the situation because deep down, you know,
928
00:42:20.900 --> 00:42:22.820
how can I actually have a real conversation?
929
00:42:23.019 --> 00:42:25.500
Say that again. That is super fucking important for people
930
00:42:25.519 --> 00:42:26.900
to understand. Say what you just said.
931
00:42:27.260 --> 00:42:30.739
So when there's a, when there's a lack of discipline
932
00:42:30.840 --> 00:42:33.590
in the people that you lead, right? There's, there's a,
933
00:42:33.599 --> 00:42:37.679
a level of tolerance that you allow. And that's why
934
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:40.599
they're undisciplined. And it typically comes, the reason why they're
935
00:42:40.619 --> 00:42:43.539
tolerant is because you are undisciplined in your life.
936
00:42:43.739 --> 00:42:48.030
That's what you tolerate. That's how much you tolerate yourself slipping.
937
00:42:48.449 --> 00:42:51.449
So how can I talk to DJ? DJ, you need
938
00:42:51.469 --> 00:42:54.030
to do this, this, and this. When DJ watches, I've
939
00:42:54.090 --> 00:42:55.829
never actually done that myself. That's right.
940
00:42:56.210 --> 00:42:58.730
And that's one of the things like, I remember my
941
00:42:58.849 --> 00:43:03.110
first experience with supplement superstores was with Sal and Sal
942
00:43:03.119 --> 00:43:04.809
and I have talked about it so many times. Like
943
00:43:05.110 --> 00:43:07.389
I'd come into the location on eager road. I get
944
00:43:07.449 --> 00:43:09.809
my stuff. Sal's behind the counter. I didn't know the
945
00:43:09.829 --> 00:43:11.849
family owned the damn business. I mean, like we didn't
946
00:43:11.869 --> 00:43:14.489
know each other then. And I remember the experience of
947
00:43:14.530 --> 00:43:16.909
talking to Sal. Sal made me feel like a million bucks.
948
00:43:16.929 --> 00:43:18.389
Sal made me feel like, man, I'm going to go
949
00:43:18.429 --> 00:43:19.889
to the gym and I'm going to kill it today.
950
00:43:20.369 --> 00:43:23.369
And he made me feel great. And I look back
951
00:43:23.449 --> 00:43:24.710
on it. He was working the counter.
952
00:43:24.730 --> 00:43:25.030
Yeah.
953
00:43:25.469 --> 00:43:28.210
So can Sal have a conversation with somebody at Supplement
954
00:43:28.230 --> 00:43:31.469
Superstores about working the counter? Can you and Chris have
955
00:43:31.489 --> 00:43:34.059
a conversation with somebody about what it means to engage
956
00:43:34.079 --> 00:43:37.820
with a client behind the, yes, because we know your story.
957
00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:40.820
We know you being in Springfield, sleeping on a couch,
958
00:43:41.139 --> 00:43:44.059
having to literally look at an empty store over and
959
00:43:44.199 --> 00:43:46.670
over and over again with nobody to talk to and
960
00:43:46.710 --> 00:43:50.849
to keep going. You've done it. Most leaders, they haven't.
961
00:43:51.090 --> 00:43:53.309
And they say, why do my people act this way?
962
00:43:53.630 --> 00:43:58.349
Because you tolerate undisciplined behavior because you are undisciplined. And
963
00:43:58.909 --> 00:44:01.070
if somebody wants to fight us and go, okay, these
964
00:44:01.110 --> 00:44:03.030
guys think everybody needs to do 75 hard.
965
00:44:03.170 --> 00:44:03.550
You know what?
966
00:44:04.090 --> 00:44:05.730
I'll pull the challenge back. You don't have to do
967
00:44:05.730 --> 00:44:08.409
75 hard. Read a book 10 pages a day for
968
00:44:08.449 --> 00:44:10.519
a year. Most people won't do it.
969
00:44:10.750 --> 00:44:10.869
Yeah.
970
00:44:11.730 --> 00:44:14.550
I'm not saying you have to do my crazy workout
971
00:44:14.650 --> 00:44:18.909
every day. Just do something. Most people have not done anything.
972
00:44:20.110 --> 00:44:22.030
Do you know most people haven't read a book outside
973
00:44:22.050 --> 00:44:26.530
of high school? Most people, most fucking people have never
974
00:44:26.590 --> 00:44:29.420
read a fucking book after they graduate high school, cover
975
00:44:29.460 --> 00:44:35.440
to cover. Most. And we wonder why the world is like, shit, fuck, man. Dude,
976
00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:37.889
we have an obligation to get people better. You know
977
00:44:37.909 --> 00:44:39.329
what I'm saying? Like, dude, that's why you and I
978
00:44:39.349 --> 00:44:42.510
are so driven to do this shit. Like I, this
979
00:44:42.550 --> 00:44:45.050
is not, this is not, dude, you know, this, like
980
00:44:45.510 --> 00:44:47.889
I've committed to this. Like when I, when we first
981
00:44:47.929 --> 00:44:49.809
started doing a show, bro, I was soft as fuck.
982
00:44:50.170 --> 00:44:53.079
You know, I talked hard and I had, I had
983
00:44:53.119 --> 00:44:57.280
made some, a bunch of money, but like, dude, would
984
00:44:57.320 --> 00:45:00.739
I not destroy that motherfucker now? Oh, I mean, come on.
985
00:45:00.780 --> 00:45:02.760
You're, you're a completely different person, but it's like when
986
00:45:02.780 --> 00:45:04.900
you talk about a thousand days, like that's what, like
987
00:45:04.960 --> 00:45:09.289
my unrequired workout. The goal is 1,000 days. And the
988
00:45:09.329 --> 00:45:10.769
real goal is, in fact, I'm never going to, I mean,
989
00:45:10.809 --> 00:45:12.030
I'm probably just going to keep going, right?
990
00:45:12.050 --> 00:45:12.489
Yeah, 10,000 days.
991
00:45:12.530 --> 00:45:16.340
Because I realize, like, what has happened over those 1,000 days,
992
00:45:17.300 --> 00:45:20.019
starting the program, doing these other things, it's changed me.
993
00:45:20.139 --> 00:45:23.570
Yeah. It's changed how focused I am with my kids. And, dude,
994
00:45:23.690 --> 00:45:24.710
what's that change worth?
995
00:45:26.889 --> 00:45:29.369
You cannot put a price tag I'll tell you what
996
00:45:29.610 --> 00:45:32.030
My marriage with my wife is better than it has
997
00:45:32.090 --> 00:45:34.829
ever been We'll be married 15 years in November My
998
00:45:34.989 --> 00:45:37.820
marriage with my wife Is better than it has ever
999
00:45:38.059 --> 00:45:40.079
been Why do you think that is? It's a level
1000
00:45:40.099 --> 00:45:42.829
of focus, it's a level of awareness It's You know,
1001
00:45:42.849 --> 00:45:45.300
like 75 hard, when you look in the mirror and
1002
00:45:45.320 --> 00:45:48.420
you are breaking yourself down on a daily basis, it
1003
00:45:48.480 --> 00:45:52.150
exposes your flaws. And it's caused me to look and go, God,
1004
00:45:52.170 --> 00:45:53.650
there were things I was doing. I thought I was
1005
00:45:53.690 --> 00:45:55.230
a great dad and I feel like I'm a pretty
1006
00:45:55.269 --> 00:45:57.250
good dad, but like I got areas to improve as
1007
00:45:57.269 --> 00:45:59.880
a dad. I thought I was a really great husband.
1008
00:45:59.980 --> 00:46:01.739
There's areas I got to improve as a husband. And
1009
00:46:01.780 --> 00:46:04.099
I still have those areas to improve. But it's like,
1010
00:46:04.199 --> 00:46:06.019
if you're going to go all in, if you're truly
1011
00:46:06.079 --> 00:46:08.840
doing the program, you're going to see everything in your life.
1012
00:46:09.340 --> 00:46:11.400
It's not like, oh, I just get my, you see
1013
00:46:11.739 --> 00:46:17.170
everything in your life. Everything looks completely different. You communicate
1014
00:46:17.210 --> 00:46:19.590
with people different. You talk with people different. There's a
1015
00:46:19.630 --> 00:46:22.309
different level of love. It's a different level of emotion.
1016
00:46:22.349 --> 00:46:26.170
Like it is, you will be different. Dude, I tell
1017
00:46:26.210 --> 00:46:28.340
people this all the time. you know, and this is where,
1018
00:46:28.400 --> 00:46:30.380
this is how like I talk to people about doing
1019
00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:33.519
the program, right? Like how much money, by the way,
1020
00:46:33.539 --> 00:46:34.559
the program's fucking free.
1021
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:37.659
Okay. So, so I'm going to take your excuse away,
1022
00:46:38.179 --> 00:46:40.460
but you can buy the book. It books like 20
1023
00:46:40.460 --> 00:46:42.760
bucks or something. I guarantee you the books. If you,
1024
00:46:43.239 --> 00:46:44.659
if you read the book, you would pay a lot
1025
00:46:44.679 --> 00:46:50.190
more than 20 bucks for it. But, um, my point is, okay,
1026
00:46:50.210 --> 00:46:53.829
it's fucking free. Now, and I ask yourself, if you,
1027
00:46:54.010 --> 00:46:59.510
if you could develop the discipline to overcome whatever the
1028
00:46:59.590 --> 00:47:02.639
problems are in your life, whether it be your fitness,
1029
00:47:02.719 --> 00:47:09.380
whether it be your career, whether it be a frustrating relationship, anything, okay?
1030
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:14.699
If you could develop the grit, the fortitude, the discipline,
1031
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:18.889
the control, the self-esteem, the confidence that you're lacking, that
1032
00:47:18.909 --> 00:47:21.769
you pretend to have, all the shit that you pretend
1033
00:47:21.809 --> 00:47:24.250
to be, if you could really be it, what would
1034
00:47:24.269 --> 00:47:26.860
you pay to be that? Because you could be that
1035
00:47:27.179 --> 00:47:31.539
in 75 fucking days. It just takes a commitment. And
1036
00:47:31.579 --> 00:47:33.780
people think, you know, people think, you know, if you
1037
00:47:33.900 --> 00:47:36.110
asked them like, hey, can I sell you a product
1038
00:47:36.329 --> 00:47:37.849
that would do all these things? What the fuck would
1039
00:47:37.869 --> 00:47:39.989
they pay for it? I know what I would pay.
1040
00:47:40.010 --> 00:47:42.570
And it would be every fucking single dollar I had.
1041
00:47:43.929 --> 00:47:47.030
If I could buy. But you know why? Because you
1042
00:47:47.070 --> 00:47:49.070
know that you will earn more as a result of
1043
00:47:49.110 --> 00:47:53.610
doing it. Dude, look, bro, this is no bullshit. If
1044
00:47:53.630 --> 00:47:57.690
you took 2016 Andy and you said, all right, here's
1045
00:47:57.710 --> 00:48:00.050
what I can give you. I can give you all
1046
00:48:00.070 --> 00:48:02.320
of these things and you'll become this person. And this
1047
00:48:02.340 --> 00:48:06.760
is what it will cost. And that's really what I got.
1048
00:48:06.780 --> 00:48:10.550
I would have paid everything I fucking had. That's the truth.
1049
00:48:10.949 --> 00:48:12.409
Every fucking thing. I would have sold my house. I
1050
00:48:12.750 --> 00:48:14.429
would have sold my fucking cars, which I had some
1051
00:48:14.469 --> 00:48:17.820
good cars then too. I would have fucking... That's, that's
1052
00:48:17.860 --> 00:48:20.840
how much I'm getting goosebumps talking about it, dude, because like, that's,
1053
00:48:21.179 --> 00:48:24.639
I'm telling the honest truth. I would give every fucking
1054
00:48:24.699 --> 00:48:27.780
single cent that I had to have what I have now,
1055
00:48:28.380 --> 00:48:31.000
if it could have been bought, but it can't be bought.
1056
00:48:31.599 --> 00:48:33.880
It has to be earned. And that's the beautiful thing
1057
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:35.940
about this program. And that's also why I make it
1058
00:48:35.980 --> 00:48:39.019
for free because I know that when you get done
1059
00:48:39.039 --> 00:48:41.260
with that program, you will feel the same way I
1060
00:48:41.320 --> 00:48:44.400
feel about it. And it's, you know, it's like.
1061
00:48:45.300 --> 00:48:47.300
I think there's a lot, if we go like to
1062
00:48:47.320 --> 00:48:50.219
the self-talk and like you've limited, like when you hear
1063
00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:52.340
Andy's passion, like you just shared, it's because you just,
1064
00:48:52.360 --> 00:48:54.260
you've completely gotten rid of all self-talk.
1065
00:48:54.500 --> 00:48:54.639
Yeah.
1066
00:48:54.659 --> 00:48:56.820
There's no fears. There's no doubts. There's some, they'll come
1067
00:48:56.889 --> 00:48:59.010
in every now and again. The conversations are short, right?
1068
00:48:59.969 --> 00:49:05.610
Most people, like society's protected people for so long now
1069
00:49:05.869 --> 00:49:08.610
that most people have never experienced challenge and adversity, right?
1070
00:49:08.630 --> 00:49:10.630
You say, what's the biggest piece of challenge you ever
1071
00:49:10.650 --> 00:49:13.170
been through? Oh, in third grade, the ice cream fell
1072
00:49:13.210 --> 00:49:17.699
off the cone at Baskin Robbins. I said, you're in trouble.
1073
00:49:18.119 --> 00:49:20.639
I always ask people like business owners, ask that question
1074
00:49:20.940 --> 00:49:22.900
of people you're looking to hire. What's the biggest piece
1075
00:49:22.940 --> 00:49:24.380
of adversity you've been through in your life and what
1076
00:49:24.400 --> 00:49:25.679
have you been best at in your life? I always
1077
00:49:25.719 --> 00:49:28.110
tell leaders, ask those questions because number one, you'll figure
1078
00:49:28.130 --> 00:49:30.510
out of their discipline. Somebody says, I'm an award-winning piano player.
1079
00:49:30.909 --> 00:49:32.829
Why are you an award-winning piano player? Play piano two
1080
00:49:32.849 --> 00:49:34.570
hours a day for four days a week. Okay, you
1081
00:49:34.590 --> 00:49:36.289
can work for my company. For 15 years.
1082
00:49:36.309 --> 00:49:39.150
Right. What's the adversity and challenge you've been through? Oh, man,
1083
00:49:39.170 --> 00:49:40.469
I watched my mom battle cancer.
1084
00:49:40.489 --> 00:49:42.699
It was unbelievable. And she's just persevered. And it's just
1085
00:49:43.000 --> 00:49:45.079
incredible the example she is for our family. And I
1086
00:49:45.139 --> 00:49:46.400
love her to death. And I would do anything for
1087
00:49:46.440 --> 00:49:48.559
my mom. Come work for my company. Ice cream fell
1088
00:49:48.579 --> 00:49:50.179
off the cone. Don't work for the company.
1089
00:49:50.219 --> 00:49:50.440
Yeah.
1090
00:49:50.639 --> 00:49:53.880
Most people who are probably resisting doing 75 hard. And
1091
00:49:53.920 --> 00:49:56.599
I say this in a loving way. You probably haven't
1092
00:49:56.639 --> 00:49:59.820
been pushed challenge and really been uncomfortable yet in your life.
1093
00:49:59.880 --> 00:50:02.820
Those are the motherfuckers needed most. Yes. So this is
1094
00:50:02.900 --> 00:50:06.300
maybe your opportunity to say, okay, here's Andy to support me.
1095
00:50:06.699 --> 00:50:09.260
It's free. There's other people that have done it. There's
1096
00:50:09.300 --> 00:50:12.699
a community around it. I have to compete against myself,
1097
00:50:12.969 --> 00:50:15.530
but I'm not by myself. So I'm going to choose
1098
00:50:15.570 --> 00:50:18.010
to get into the fire to finally make myself uncomfortable
1099
00:50:18.050 --> 00:50:20.719
in life. And if the byproduct of that is you
1100
00:50:20.760 --> 00:50:23.210
are going to win more in all areas of your life,
1101
00:50:23.809 --> 00:50:27.489
why would you not try? Why would you not try?
1102
00:50:27.530 --> 00:50:32.059
Just start. Challenge yourself. Go all in and do it.
1103
00:50:32.670 --> 00:50:36.949
I think it's also important, you know, for people to
1104
00:50:37.010 --> 00:50:47.349
understand that you are undersold what you're capable of on purpose. Okay.
1105
00:50:47.449 --> 00:50:51.820
You were told your whole life success is for other people, uh,
1106
00:50:51.880 --> 00:50:55.980
being incredibly fit. That guy was, he's genetically blessed. Okay.
1107
00:50:56.119 --> 00:50:59.860
Being wealthy. Well, you know, that guy got lucky. Um,
1108
00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:02.019
you know, you need, you need to calm down and, and,
1109
00:51:02.300 --> 00:51:05.340
and get realistic. Dude, we're fucking told that by fucking everybody.
1110
00:51:05.760 --> 00:51:07.730
And what happens is we're sold a bill of goods.
1111
00:51:07.750 --> 00:51:10.449
It just isn't fucking true because I believe, and I do,
1112
00:51:10.590 --> 00:51:14.070
I truly believe this. I don't give Two shits, where
1113
00:51:14.090 --> 00:51:17.230
you come from, what your race is, who you like
1114
00:51:17.269 --> 00:51:20.610
to have sex. I don't fucking care. All of you
1115
00:51:20.769 --> 00:51:24.429
have greatness inside of you. Every fucking one of you.
1116
00:51:24.730 --> 00:51:27.590
And the thing is, we are sold a bill of
1117
00:51:27.630 --> 00:51:31.530
goods by our peers, by our teachers, by the media,
1118
00:51:31.699 --> 00:51:34.860
by society, that we are meant to be average. We
1119
00:51:34.900 --> 00:51:37.280
are meant to be regular people. And a lot of
1120
00:51:37.320 --> 00:51:42.050
people buy that. And what happens is, You know, we
1121
00:51:42.090 --> 00:51:45.000
become miserable. We become fat. We become lazy. We become
1122
00:51:45.739 --> 00:51:48.400
earning way less. You know, we become like everybody else.
1123
00:51:49.449 --> 00:51:52.139
And people have to come to a point where you
1124
00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:55.500
have to admit to yourself that you're not maximizing any
1125
00:51:55.539 --> 00:51:58.300
of the gifts that you have. You're not really living
1126
00:51:58.360 --> 00:52:01.039
a true purpose of any sort, which is why you
1127
00:52:01.059 --> 00:52:03.719
feel so empty inside. And at least if you can
1128
00:52:03.760 --> 00:52:06.440
control your discipline, at least if you can control the
1129
00:52:06.500 --> 00:52:09.059
things that are making your life difficult, you have a
1130
00:52:09.199 --> 00:52:12.530
fucking good shot at moving past where you are in life.
1131
00:52:13.429 --> 00:52:16.030
And you also stop talking about how great you want
1132
00:52:16.050 --> 00:52:18.449
to be and your action starts to tell the real
1133
00:52:18.489 --> 00:52:20.960
story of your life. And when your action starts to
1134
00:52:21.000 --> 00:52:23.820
tell the story, you feel so much better about yourself. Yeah,
1135
00:52:23.860 --> 00:52:27.820
it's weird, man. It's a different vibe. You could talk
1136
00:52:27.860 --> 00:52:29.920
a good game to yourself. I'm going to do this.
1137
00:52:30.260 --> 00:52:32.480
Watch me. I'm going to do this. Here's my vision.
1138
00:52:32.519 --> 00:52:33.199
I'm going to do this.
1139
00:52:33.539 --> 00:52:37.170
But most of the time, if there's not confidence or
1140
00:52:37.190 --> 00:52:39.190
you're not feeling good about where you are, it's because
1141
00:52:39.210 --> 00:52:42.340
you've been saying these things for years. But there's no
1142
00:52:42.599 --> 00:52:45.000
action and no discipline that's followed the belief. You don't
1143
00:52:45.019 --> 00:52:45.480
really believe it.
1144
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:47.719
You don't believe yourself just like you wouldn't believe another
1145
00:52:47.760 --> 00:52:49.429
person that came to you every day and said, hey,
1146
00:52:49.440 --> 00:52:51.280
I'm going to do this and they don't do it. Like,
1147
00:52:51.300 --> 00:52:54.840
would you believe, you know, an employee that came to
1148
00:52:54.880 --> 00:52:55.860
you every day and said they're going to get a
1149
00:52:55.860 --> 00:52:58.929
project done and never got it done? No, eventually you say, hey,
1150
00:52:59.469 --> 00:53:01.510
this fucking guy ain't going to get it done. And
1151
00:53:01.570 --> 00:53:04.230
so what happens is those words start to mean nothing.
1152
00:53:04.989 --> 00:53:07.969
And when you do that to yourself, that's very hard
1153
00:53:07.989 --> 00:53:09.889
to overcome because we're not aware we even do it
1154
00:53:09.909 --> 00:53:12.630
to ourselves. We're not even aware that we're selling ourselves
1155
00:53:12.690 --> 00:53:17.650
short by, you know, opting out of the idea that
1156
00:53:17.670 --> 00:53:20.250
we're even better than we are. You know what I'm saying?
1157
00:53:20.309 --> 00:53:20.530
Yeah.
1158
00:53:20.710 --> 00:53:24.329
And it causes all these things, depression, fucking, you know,
1159
00:53:24.690 --> 00:53:32.260
unfulfilled lives, divorce, you know, financial hardships. And like, dude,
1160
00:53:32.320 --> 00:53:34.139
this is something I've said since you and I were
1161
00:53:34.179 --> 00:53:36.920
doing the show together, I still believe is true. You
1162
00:53:36.960 --> 00:53:39.159
get to pick which hard you want to subscribe to.
1163
00:53:40.019 --> 00:53:42.460
But you don't get to opt out of the hard, motherfucker. Like,
1164
00:53:42.500 --> 00:53:43.820
it's going to be hard one way or the other.
1165
00:53:44.239 --> 00:53:45.980
You're either going to live a life of no discipline,
1166
00:53:46.000 --> 00:53:48.820
no control, at the mercy of all your outside elements,
1167
00:53:49.219 --> 00:53:50.840
or you're going to figure out the skills needed to
1168
00:53:50.880 --> 00:53:54.050
control those things. And those things are going to improve
1169
00:53:54.820 --> 00:53:57.630
the things like confidence. Like, you know, one of the
1170
00:53:57.670 --> 00:54:01.949
things that I notice about people that have really done
1171
00:54:01.989 --> 00:54:06.630
it versus people who haven't done it is that, you know,
1172
00:54:06.690 --> 00:54:11.070
people who haven't done it And I'm not saying they
1173
00:54:11.110 --> 00:54:14.389
haven't tried it. I'm saying haven't done it right or
1174
00:54:14.469 --> 00:54:16.750
haven't done it at all because it's basically the same thing,
1175
00:54:16.769 --> 00:54:21.349
in my opinion. Those people walk around looking for validation
1176
00:54:21.369 --> 00:54:24.389
from external sources, right? And people spend a lot of
1177
00:54:24.449 --> 00:54:31.199
time valuing the external inputs, especially with social media, right?
1178
00:54:31.460 --> 00:54:35.360
Like we're constantly looking for the positive comments or the
1179
00:54:35.420 --> 00:54:40.300
likes or the affirmations that we're doing good things. And
1180
00:54:40.800 --> 00:54:43.579
the confirmation that we're doing good things from other people
1181
00:54:43.599 --> 00:54:46.090
who probably aren't even qualified to give you that compliment.
1182
00:54:46.110 --> 00:54:49.050
Let's be real, okay? And so when we focus on
1183
00:54:49.070 --> 00:54:53.030
the external validation, we get this very shallow feeling of,
1184
00:54:53.309 --> 00:54:57.159
you know, it's almost like a dopamine hit. We're like, okay, yeah, cool.
1185
00:54:57.340 --> 00:54:58.619
And then we started looking for the next one, the
1186
00:54:58.659 --> 00:55:02.139
next one, the next one. But when you truly become confident,
1187
00:55:02.179 --> 00:55:05.199
you truly build those skills that we're talking about and
1188
00:55:05.239 --> 00:55:07.860
that belief in yourself. I want to be real, dude.
1189
00:55:07.940 --> 00:55:10.739
And like, this is something that's made my life tremendously better.
1190
00:55:10.760 --> 00:55:14.860
And a lot of people try to fake it. But
1191
00:55:15.090 --> 00:55:17.949
faking it doesn't count. And so when I say this,
1192
00:55:18.010 --> 00:55:21.449
I mean this literally. And I appreciate the people that
1193
00:55:21.489 --> 00:55:24.710
believe in me. I appreciate the people that fucking support
1194
00:55:24.809 --> 00:55:27.130
everything we do. but I'm going to tell you the truth.
1195
00:55:27.289 --> 00:55:30.110
I don't fucking need one single human on this planet
1196
00:55:30.530 --> 00:55:32.469
to fucking believe in me. I'm going to make it
1197
00:55:32.489 --> 00:55:36.420
happen regardless. And that is what happens whenever you become
1198
00:55:36.840 --> 00:55:40.760
truly confident. I don't give a fuck if so-and-so says
1199
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:44.150
they don't like me or they don't like the way
1200
00:55:44.190 --> 00:55:46.530
I present myself or the way I talk. I'm not
1201
00:55:46.590 --> 00:55:49.989
sitting at home overanalyzing all this shit. You know, oh,
1202
00:55:50.389 --> 00:55:52.969
did I offend so and so? Look, dude, that's your
1203
00:55:53.010 --> 00:55:55.780
responsibility if I offended you. It's not mine. I try
1204
00:55:55.820 --> 00:55:59.199
to tell the truth. I tell the truth. And if
1205
00:55:59.380 --> 00:56:02.519
that bothers people, then that's fucking on them. And that's
1206
00:56:02.579 --> 00:56:06.420
what this true confidence really creates. And by creating that,
1207
00:56:06.500 --> 00:56:12.349
you unlock your real potential to achieve and be impactful human.
1208
00:56:12.730 --> 00:56:15.170
Because when you are living that example and you are
1209
00:56:15.230 --> 00:56:17.869
telling the truth to people and they are seeing it,
1210
00:56:18.010 --> 00:56:21.239
witnessing it and understanding what's going on and then they
1211
00:56:21.340 --> 00:56:24.719
join and then they become better, you're now creating something
1212
00:56:24.739 --> 00:56:28.480
that really fucking matters. And that's every single person listening
1213
00:56:28.500 --> 00:56:31.900
to this. And that's why I like to these points
1214
00:56:31.920 --> 00:56:33.579
you're making. That's why we want you to do the
1215
00:56:33.639 --> 00:56:34.500
program the right way.
1216
00:56:34.519 --> 00:56:34.599
Yeah.
1217
00:56:35.099 --> 00:56:38.280
Dude, it's all or nothing. Let me be really fucking clear.
1218
00:56:39.030 --> 00:56:41.630
All you motherfuckers out there that try to change the program,
1219
00:56:42.210 --> 00:56:44.610
you are not qualified to change the program. You haven't
1220
00:56:44.670 --> 00:56:48.210
built a company worth billions of dollars. You haven't gotten
1221
00:56:48.250 --> 00:56:51.250
in fucking great shape. You don't know shit about fucking discipline.
1222
00:56:51.630 --> 00:56:54.429
Let's be fucking honest. You know nothing. And you're trying
1223
00:56:54.449 --> 00:56:57.539
to make it easier, which is honestly the whole fucking
1224
00:56:57.619 --> 00:57:01.610
reason that you're having the problems in life. Every time
1225
00:57:01.699 --> 00:57:03.619
shit gets hard, every time shit gets- Because you change
1226
00:57:03.659 --> 00:57:06.260
the rules. That's right. You try to change the situation
1227
00:57:06.280 --> 00:57:09.059
to fit your comfort when in reality you're supposed to
1228
00:57:09.119 --> 00:57:13.039
change yourself to fit that fucking circumstance or that situation.
1229
00:57:13.440 --> 00:57:15.460
And there is not a circumstance or a situation on
1230
00:57:15.480 --> 00:57:18.460
this fucking planet that can fuck with you when you
1231
00:57:18.559 --> 00:57:22.030
have that level of discipline and belief and confidence. You
1232
00:57:22.050 --> 00:57:24.510
might have hard days. You might have hard weeks. You
1233
00:57:24.530 --> 00:57:27.750
might have hard months. Somebody could, you could lose someone
1234
00:57:27.789 --> 00:57:29.949
or there's all kinds of things that can happen. But
1235
00:57:29.989 --> 00:57:33.130
when you are in that zone of understanding that you're
1236
00:57:33.170 --> 00:57:36.199
in control of how you react, the decisions you make,
1237
00:57:36.719 --> 00:57:39.119
whether or not you drink that beer or that wine
1238
00:57:39.159 --> 00:57:42.960
or have that, whatever your vice is, right? When you
1239
00:57:43.000 --> 00:57:44.780
understand and you're in control of that, you're able to
1240
00:57:44.860 --> 00:57:48.860
navigate these hardships effectively. And they don't throw you off
1241
00:57:48.920 --> 00:57:51.659
track like some people get, right? Like some people have
1242
00:57:51.679 --> 00:57:54.590
a hardship and, you know, they go down the toilet
1243
00:57:54.619 --> 00:57:57.590
for five years. I'm no different, bro. I was the
1244
00:57:57.670 --> 00:58:01.650
same way. I had a fucking hard year in 2012, personally.
1245
00:58:02.269 --> 00:58:05.130
And that lasted for three fucking years. And I got
1246
00:58:05.190 --> 00:58:07.449
fat as shit. All right? So I know what the
1247
00:58:07.510 --> 00:58:09.389
fuck I'm talking about when I'm talking about going down
1248
00:58:09.429 --> 00:58:11.409
the drain. I know how to come out of the motherfucker, too.
1249
00:58:11.969 --> 00:58:12.110
So.
1250
00:58:13.320 --> 00:58:17.360
When you try to change the program, understand what you're
1251
00:58:17.469 --> 00:58:20.389
doing by even thinking that you're going to change your program.
1252
00:58:20.409 --> 00:58:22.610
And I don't give a fuck how many certifications you
1253
00:58:22.670 --> 00:58:26.190
have or whatever you're following, whatever the fuck you think.
1254
00:58:27.469 --> 00:58:30.690
I'm telling you right now, you're fucking yourself, okay? Because
1255
00:58:30.730 --> 00:58:33.820
it is an all or nothing program. You either ran
1256
00:58:33.840 --> 00:58:37.769
the motherfucking Ironman or you fucking didn't. Period. That's it.
1257
00:58:38.190 --> 00:58:41.409
So you didn't, you didn't, you don't get to substitute
1258
00:58:42.710 --> 00:58:46.989
tricycle for two miles for the bike for however many,
1259
00:58:47.030 --> 00:58:49.050
like you don't get to do that shit. You don't
1260
00:58:49.090 --> 00:58:51.349
get to do it here either. And the program has
1261
00:58:51.369 --> 00:58:54.530
been specifically designed for certain fucking things. And if you
1262
00:58:54.650 --> 00:58:57.269
actually do it and you read the book before or
1263
00:58:57.429 --> 00:59:00.150
after the program, you're going to realize that all that
1264
00:59:00.190 --> 00:59:02.710
shit happens. All of it. Let me bring up a point.
1265
00:59:02.730 --> 00:59:04.849
Cause I know when we were talking about doing the show,
1266
00:59:06.469 --> 00:59:09.190
we promised that we would address this point. There's a
1267
00:59:09.210 --> 00:59:10.880
lot of variance the program, right?
1268
00:59:11.320 --> 00:59:14.000
Diet. Yeah. The workouts that you choose. Right.
1269
00:59:14.039 --> 00:59:15.500
So it's like, why do you need to go cut
1270
00:59:15.519 --> 00:59:18.800
more like 10 pages, read, not listen, right?
1271
00:59:18.840 --> 00:59:20.820
Like do the program.
1272
00:59:21.559 --> 00:59:23.500
But one of the things where I think people give
1273
00:59:23.619 --> 00:59:27.360
too much variance and we talked about this, people see
1274
00:59:27.440 --> 00:59:30.570
you walking, right? And one of my things that I
1275
00:59:30.630 --> 00:59:32.860
prided myself on and we talked openly about it and
1276
00:59:32.900 --> 00:59:34.760
I'm not, I'm not telling anybody they.
1277
00:59:34.659 --> 00:59:37.400
Didn't do the program. If you did it and you walked. Yeah.
1278
00:59:37.559 --> 00:59:40.420
But like I walked zero times. I did not do
1279
00:59:40.460 --> 00:59:44.309
a single walk because I felt that in my condition
1280
00:59:45.090 --> 00:59:46.889
I could do more, do more.
1281
00:59:46.909 --> 00:59:49.869
Correct. And so like I wanted to push myself to
1282
00:59:49.889 --> 00:59:50.150
do more.
1283
00:59:50.449 --> 00:59:52.369
If I would have just walked down the street, I mean,
1284
00:59:52.570 --> 00:59:56.320
I see people, They literally, they're walking down the beach.
1285
00:59:56.659 --> 00:59:59.340
They probably have their shoes off in a bathing suit saying,
1286
00:59:59.679 --> 01:00:02.030
I'm getting after it, live hard. And I'm like, what
1287
01:00:02.070 --> 01:00:04.710
are you doing? And then they say, and this is,
1288
01:00:05.010 --> 01:00:06.670
I think you're excited to clear this up too.
1289
01:00:06.909 --> 01:00:11.099
They said, well, Andy walks too. It's like I walk
1290
01:00:11.579 --> 01:00:13.900
and then run and then walk and then run. And
1291
01:00:13.940 --> 01:00:15.980
that's one of the things. Or when I walk, I
1292
01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:19.030
wear a vest. A hundred percent. But here's the thing.
1293
01:00:19.210 --> 01:00:21.230
And I said, and not that you need anybody to
1294
01:00:21.289 --> 01:00:23.090
come to your defense, but I think we want people
1295
01:00:23.130 --> 01:00:25.389
to understand, like, if you're going to do it, challenge yourself.
1296
01:00:25.429 --> 01:00:25.510
Yeah.
1297
01:00:26.280 --> 01:00:29.099
You're a big guy. Like you putting on a vest,
1298
01:00:29.139 --> 01:00:32.539
like there's no running for 45 straight minutes and your
1299
01:00:32.659 --> 01:00:35.440
weight in a 30, 40 pound vest. Like that's that.
1300
01:00:35.699 --> 01:00:39.710
So you walking up hills, sprinting, like Andy's not just
1301
01:00:39.889 --> 01:00:42.610
walking down the street casually. It's a fucking workout. You're
1302
01:00:42.630 --> 01:00:46.719
walking up hills. Like, so people, you have to understand,
1303
01:00:47.139 --> 01:00:50.739
like don't choose to, Oh, I walk because I see it.
1304
01:00:50.800 --> 01:00:51.760
But stop.
1305
01:00:52.300 --> 01:00:55.579
If you're having to rationalize, you're not doing the program.
1306
01:00:55.599 --> 01:00:55.900
That's it.
1307
01:00:56.199 --> 01:00:58.260
I guarantee for you. And that should be the rule.
1308
01:00:59.659 --> 01:01:02.699
Andy has never rationalized. Well, this one didn't count. No,
1309
01:01:03.030 --> 01:01:06.889
you put that vest on. With 265 pounds of twisted
1310
01:01:06.949 --> 01:01:08.369
steel and sex appeal. That's it.
1311
01:01:08.650 --> 01:01:13.090
And you're moving. Yeah. Like, you know that is a workout. Yeah.
1312
01:01:13.630 --> 01:01:17.780
If you are walking down the beach, filming yourself, and
1313
01:01:17.840 --> 01:01:20.940
you've questioned, because I know you're doing it 20 times
1314
01:01:20.980 --> 01:01:23.320
during that walk, does this really count?
1315
01:01:23.559 --> 01:01:26.360
Guess what? It doesn't count. That's it, dude. The rule is,
1316
01:01:26.400 --> 01:01:28.300
if you've got to ask, it doesn't count. Doesn't count.
1317
01:01:28.320 --> 01:01:28.559
That's it.
1318
01:01:28.559 --> 01:01:31.219
It's that simple. Is it okay if I eat this
1319
01:01:31.360 --> 01:01:32.940
cream sauce on my pasta?
1320
01:01:33.019 --> 01:01:35.699
No. No, you cannot have cream sauce on your pasta.
1321
01:01:36.280 --> 01:01:37.909
Why are you even asking that question?
1322
01:01:38.230 --> 01:01:38.429
Dude.
1323
01:01:38.630 --> 01:01:42.150
So, so I failed in the beginning by not clarifying
1324
01:01:42.190 --> 01:01:47.039
that for enough people. And also at the beginning, like, so,
1325
01:01:47.219 --> 01:01:48.719
so I want to clarify a couple of things around
1326
01:01:48.760 --> 01:01:52.989
that point. First off, If you're 400 pounds and you're
1327
01:01:53.010 --> 01:01:56.489
doing 75 hard and you do a walk. That's a workout. Yeah.
1328
01:01:56.610 --> 01:01:57.989
That is a workout.
1329
01:01:57.989 --> 01:01:58.050
100%.
1330
01:01:58.050 --> 01:02:02.829
What we're talking about here is an intense effort. Based
1331
01:02:02.889 --> 01:02:03.829
on who you are.
1332
01:02:03.849 --> 01:02:04.090
Right.
1333
01:02:04.429 --> 01:02:09.099
It's scalable. The whole program is designed for scalability. Like
1334
01:02:10.559 --> 01:02:12.460
one of the media channels did a fucking hit piece
1335
01:02:12.559 --> 01:02:15.070
on me. I'm pretty sure because of my political views,
1336
01:02:15.530 --> 01:02:19.210
but they decided to attack 75 hard and they were like, Oh,
1337
01:02:19.510 --> 01:02:23.949
it's fucking dangerous. It's blah, blah, motherfucker. It's scalable. Like
1338
01:02:24.409 --> 01:02:27.320
you can literally, if you're 600 pounds and can't get
1339
01:02:27.340 --> 01:02:30.940
out of bed, you can do fucking band work. Okay.
1340
01:02:31.059 --> 01:02:35.860
But it's about working towards what it is. That is
1341
01:02:36.039 --> 01:02:41.190
actually your potential. So I, uh, When I started the program,
1342
01:02:41.289 --> 01:02:44.000
I did all walking with a weight vest, all right?
1343
01:02:44.059 --> 01:02:46.480
And what I realized was I started fucking with my heels,
1344
01:02:47.019 --> 01:02:50.119
all right? So now my heels are totally fucked. So
1345
01:02:51.380 --> 01:02:53.619
now what I do is instead of wearing the vest,
1346
01:02:53.639 --> 01:02:55.440
I've done this for the last year and a half,
1347
01:02:56.000 --> 01:02:58.929
is I do little intervals. I go out, I run
1348
01:02:58.989 --> 01:03:01.630
for a couple minutes, then I stop, then I walk
1349
01:03:01.650 --> 01:03:04.789
for a couple minutes, then I run. And when I take,
1350
01:03:05.130 --> 01:03:07.460
when I do a story, I never do it when
1351
01:03:07.480 --> 01:03:09.840
I'm running because guess what, motherfucker? I can't talk when
1352
01:03:09.860 --> 01:03:12.980
I'm running. So you don't ever see it. So, you know,
1353
01:03:13.019 --> 01:03:15.659
that's my bad. And I take responsibility for people maybe
1354
01:03:15.699 --> 01:03:20.510
misunderstanding that. But let's clarify it now. You should be
1355
01:03:20.570 --> 01:03:25.309
challenging yourself. And it's it's it. None of you out
1356
01:03:25.349 --> 01:03:28.449
there should be harassing other people like I see this shit, too,
1357
01:03:28.469 --> 01:03:31.570
which annoys the fuck out of me. Everybody thinks they're
1358
01:03:31.590 --> 01:03:34.889
the 75 hard police. And most of the motherfuckers saying
1359
01:03:34.909 --> 01:03:37.530
the shit didn't even do it because the true people
1360
01:03:37.570 --> 01:03:40.349
that did it, they don't actually give a fuck if
1361
01:03:40.409 --> 01:03:42.610
someone else does it right or not, because they did
1362
01:03:42.650 --> 01:03:45.510
it right. I'm rooting for people too, but like, I
1363
01:03:45.550 --> 01:03:47.610
don't really care. Like if you want to fuck yourself,
1364
01:03:48.389 --> 01:03:50.059
you've been doing it your whole life. So keep going.
1365
01:03:50.340 --> 01:03:52.019
You know what I'm saying? That's how I feel about it.
1366
01:03:52.440 --> 01:03:54.719
I used to get real mad and be like, like, dude,
1367
01:03:54.739 --> 01:03:57.320
Waylon hit me up. And he's like, Bro, I'm done
1368
01:03:57.400 --> 01:04:00.039
talking about this shit. Every fucking time I say a
1369
01:04:00.099 --> 01:04:03.559
story about 75 hard, I got to fucking explain 25
1370
01:04:03.559 --> 01:04:05.900
questions about what I could do this or that or this.
1371
01:04:06.219 --> 01:04:08.599
I say, Sean, just fucking tell them if they got
1372
01:04:08.619 --> 01:04:11.320
to ask, the answer is fucking no. Because that's the truth.
1373
01:04:12.019 --> 01:04:14.769
If you've got to question it, if you're wondering if
1374
01:04:14.849 --> 01:04:17.489
it counted, guess what? It didn't fucking count. 100%. So,
1375
01:04:18.989 --> 01:04:22.510
you know, dude, people take shit so literally. Like, I
1376
01:04:22.550 --> 01:04:27.070
don't want you to, like... you know, like, dude, here's
1377
01:04:27.110 --> 01:04:30.590
what happens, right? Because this happens too. And this is rare.
1378
01:04:30.610 --> 01:04:32.710
This is very rare with people, but it does happen.
1379
01:04:33.130 --> 01:04:35.550
I have some people who are so diligent and so
1380
01:04:35.630 --> 01:04:39.340
strict on the program that they get done. They're like, fuck,
1381
01:04:39.380 --> 01:04:41.059
I could have gave more. I could have gave more.
1382
01:04:41.460 --> 01:04:44.579
We can always give more. That's just a champion mindset
1383
01:04:44.599 --> 01:04:48.239
that you cultivated. So it's natural to truly... This is
1384
01:04:48.300 --> 01:04:50.280
why it's such... You have to be so aware to
1385
01:04:50.320 --> 01:04:52.760
really get what you need out of this program because
1386
01:04:53.139 --> 01:04:58.610
it's such a natural... thought for a champion mindset to
1387
01:04:58.690 --> 01:05:00.610
look back and analyze and say, no, I could have
1388
01:05:00.710 --> 01:05:02.070
fucking done this. I could have done that. I could
1389
01:05:02.090 --> 01:05:04.800
have done this. And so I've seen people say, fuck,
1390
01:05:04.860 --> 01:05:08.280
I fucking failed when actually they did it exactly right.
1391
01:05:08.400 --> 01:05:11.639
They're just using their champion brain the wrong way. Well,
1392
01:05:11.659 --> 01:05:14.400
you look for another. Yeah. So, so be conscious of
1393
01:05:14.440 --> 01:05:17.250
that too, but that's the rarity, dude. Like I'm talking,
1394
01:05:17.289 --> 01:05:18.630
those are the people that you could look at the
1395
01:05:18.670 --> 01:05:20.590
before and after, and they don't even look like the
1396
01:05:20.650 --> 01:05:23.610
same motherfucker. You know what I'm saying? A hundred percent.
1397
01:05:23.769 --> 01:05:26.590
So they're, you know, but dude, that's the exception. You know,
1398
01:05:26.630 --> 01:05:30.090
most of the people are the first group where they're like, dude,
1399
01:05:30.130 --> 01:05:32.469
and what that is, bro, is that's just conditioning of
1400
01:05:32.510 --> 01:05:35.260
their own voice their whole life, right? Their whole life,
1401
01:05:35.679 --> 01:05:40.039
we're conditioned to do things easier, quicker, more efficient. What
1402
01:05:40.059 --> 01:05:44.420
do we hear everywhere in society? Easier, more convenient. How
1403
01:05:44.440 --> 01:05:45.920
do I cut the corner? How do I do it faster?
1404
01:05:45.940 --> 01:05:46.079
Cheap.
1405
01:05:47.369 --> 01:05:50.789
You know, that's what this is all. Our whole society
1406
01:05:50.849 --> 01:05:53.630
is built around these ideas. And a lot of times
1407
01:05:53.650 --> 01:05:56.929
that makes sense, right? It's good business strategy to make
1408
01:05:56.969 --> 01:06:01.429
your life easier for your customers. But when it comes
1409
01:06:01.469 --> 01:06:04.550
to personal development and it comes to becoming a motherfucking
1410
01:06:04.659 --> 01:06:06.500
weapon that you need to become to get where you
1411
01:06:06.539 --> 01:06:09.500
want to go, you have to put yourself through this
1412
01:06:09.539 --> 01:06:12.260
hard shit because if you don't, the world fucking will.
1413
01:06:12.420 --> 01:06:14.639
Your mind is your most powerful weapon. Dude.
1414
01:06:16.130 --> 01:06:18.130
There's no doubt about it. Your mind is your most
1415
01:06:18.170 --> 01:06:20.289
powerful weapon. And the only way that you're going to
1416
01:06:20.329 --> 01:06:23.190
be able to learn to grow your mind, take control
1417
01:06:23.210 --> 01:06:24.949
of your mind, figure out how tough you are, is
1418
01:06:24.989 --> 01:06:27.929
to silence your self-talk with the action that you're willing
1419
01:06:27.949 --> 01:06:31.260
to take consistently. And my definition of consistent is not
1420
01:06:31.280 --> 01:06:33.940
a couple of days here, a couple of days there. Andy,
1421
01:06:33.960 --> 01:06:36.400
I did this three days in a row. It's consistency
1422
01:06:36.619 --> 01:06:37.280
every day.
1423
01:06:37.300 --> 01:06:40.900
It's every day doing what you say you're going to do.
1424
01:06:41.219 --> 01:06:45.389
I wonder how many people out there in the world... Like,
1425
01:06:45.610 --> 01:06:47.510
not just, I'm not talking about the listeners because we
1426
01:06:47.530 --> 01:06:50.429
have some, you know, dude, we've got a lot of
1427
01:06:50.449 --> 01:06:53.380
people that listen to the show that are fucking winning big,
1428
01:06:54.530 --> 01:06:59.579
which doesn't surprise me. But we have people out there
1429
01:06:59.739 --> 01:07:03.699
who aren't and who are doubtful and who think they
1430
01:07:03.780 --> 01:07:06.460
really don't have what it takes. They really believe that,
1431
01:07:07.019 --> 01:07:10.519
you know? And if that's you, if you're listening to this,
1432
01:07:11.000 --> 01:07:13.250
you're the person that I want to do this program
1433
01:07:13.269 --> 01:07:15.840
the right way. because it will change you the most.
1434
01:07:16.159 --> 01:07:18.579
It will be, and by the way, guys, you don't
1435
01:07:18.599 --> 01:07:22.019
have to buy shit. Go listen to the podcast. Which
1436
01:07:22.059 --> 01:07:26.360
episode is it, Madat? It's 14, baby. Go listen to 14,
1437
01:07:26.360 --> 01:07:29.539
all right, and then episode 80, and it will explain
1438
01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:33.000
the concept of the 75 hard and then also the
1439
01:07:33.079 --> 01:07:36.860
live hard program. And you guys right now, who you're
1440
01:07:36.900 --> 01:07:40.389
maybe in the beginning or you're maybe, you know, uh,
1441
01:07:40.570 --> 01:07:42.369
real far away from where you want to be. And
1442
01:07:42.409 --> 01:07:44.849
you've been told your whole life, you're mediocre. You're, you're,
1443
01:07:45.090 --> 01:07:48.570
you're a regular person. You know, uh, you're not special.
1444
01:07:48.889 --> 01:07:50.590
What makes you think like, dude, I heard all that
1445
01:07:50.670 --> 01:07:53.869
fucking shit, all of it. And, and all those motherfuckers,
1446
01:07:53.989 --> 01:07:55.880
every single one that told me any of that shit,
1447
01:07:55.889 --> 01:07:58.239
you know what they're doing today? The same shit they
1448
01:07:58.260 --> 01:08:02.280
were doing then the same shit. And so as someone,
1449
01:08:02.440 --> 01:08:06.340
and as another man who have, you know, maybe gotten
1450
01:08:06.420 --> 01:08:09.199
a little bit further down the road in age and experience,
1451
01:08:09.909 --> 01:08:12.909
And looking back and saying, fuck, dude, I can tell
1452
01:08:12.929 --> 01:08:14.199
you this, dude. I wish I would have figured this
1453
01:08:14.260 --> 01:08:18.640
out at fucking 20. Holy fuck. Without question. Holy fuck.
1454
01:08:19.399 --> 01:08:24.000
Without question. I don't know, man. You know, do it
1455
01:08:24.039 --> 01:08:26.000
or don't do it. But there's nothing you got to pay.
1456
01:08:26.300 --> 01:08:28.579
You know, it's just blood, sweat and tears, man. And
1457
01:08:28.760 --> 01:08:31.850
here's what I'd say. Like I said earlier.
1458
01:08:32.890 --> 01:08:35.029
If you don't want to start 75 hard now, challenge
1459
01:08:35.050 --> 01:08:37.819
yourself in one area. Challenge yourself in two areas, three areas.
1460
01:08:37.859 --> 01:08:39.640
Do something for 30 days. That's what I was going
1461
01:08:39.659 --> 01:08:41.520
to say, bro. I bet you you get hungry for more.
1462
01:08:41.539 --> 01:08:42.189
That's what I was going to say.
1463
01:08:42.199 --> 01:08:43.920
If you challenge yourself in three areas, you'll be like,
1464
01:08:44.539 --> 01:08:46.560
maybe I can do this program. And guess what?
1465
01:08:46.619 --> 01:08:47.079
You can't.
1466
01:08:47.100 --> 01:08:49.640
Because what comes out of your mouth goes into your ears.
1467
01:08:49.659 --> 01:08:51.649
That's what you believe, and that's what determines the action
1468
01:08:51.659 --> 01:08:54.130
that you take. So if somebody's been feeding it to
1469
01:08:54.170 --> 01:08:56.569
you or you've been feeding it to yourself, that's why
1470
01:08:56.590 --> 01:08:59.970
you're not taking the action. Believe in yourself. Flip the script.
1471
01:09:00.100 --> 01:09:02.420
on what you're telling yourself, start to say, I can
1472
01:09:02.479 --> 01:09:05.079
do this. So if you're not in position right now,
1473
01:09:05.140 --> 01:09:07.050
or if your doctor says you shouldn't be doing it,
1474
01:09:07.380 --> 01:09:09.500
and it is clear in the book, like if you
1475
01:09:09.699 --> 01:09:11.840
feel once again, if you have to ask the question,
1476
01:09:11.859 --> 01:09:14.539
do you think my doctor would approve doing this? Go
1477
01:09:14.579 --> 01:09:17.869
see your doctor, right? Like, Andy wants everybody to do
1478
01:09:17.909 --> 01:09:20.750
this the right way with good health, taking control of
1479
01:09:20.789 --> 01:09:24.289
their life. Well, it's a permanent solution. It's not a trend.
1480
01:09:24.569 --> 01:09:24.930
Exactly.
1481
01:09:24.949 --> 01:09:27.729
That's the thing. And this will change you forever. There's
1482
01:09:27.770 --> 01:09:30.619
no going back. And I can't forget to say this.
1483
01:09:31.340 --> 01:09:33.800
After I finished 75 Hard, I created what I call
1484
01:09:33.859 --> 01:09:36.500
a never do it again list. It's a list of
1485
01:09:36.500 --> 01:09:41.760
14 things that I read every single day ever since
1486
01:09:41.819 --> 01:09:44.739
I finished. So my 75th day, remember, create the environment
1487
01:09:44.880 --> 01:09:48.250
I started. So that my 75th day was my mother's birthday.
1488
01:09:48.930 --> 01:09:51.670
My mother who passed away 11 days before my eighth birthday.
1489
01:09:51.710 --> 01:09:54.069
So many of you know the story from past episodes
1490
01:09:54.109 --> 01:09:57.189
we've done together. She's my greatest inspiration. So I made
1491
01:09:57.270 --> 01:09:59.720
sure my last day was my mother's birthday. There were
1492
01:09:59.800 --> 01:10:02.560
no cutting corners. I was going to honor my mother
1493
01:10:03.020 --> 01:10:06.140
with finishing this program. And so when I finished, I said, okay,
1494
01:10:06.180 --> 01:10:08.100
what are the things I'm never going to do again?
1495
01:10:08.420 --> 01:10:09.899
And most people are like, I'm going to do this.
1496
01:10:09.920 --> 01:10:11.899
I'm going to do that. Create a never do.
1497
01:10:11.819 --> 01:10:13.369
It again list. That's powerful.
1498
01:10:13.390 --> 01:10:15.409
What's the stuff on that list? Oh, there's stuff about
1499
01:10:15.470 --> 01:10:17.579
I'm not going to let anybody take my power. I'm
1500
01:10:17.619 --> 01:10:19.619
not going to let anybody take my voice. I'm not
1501
01:10:19.640 --> 01:10:21.899
going to get above this weight. I mean, there's all
1502
01:10:22.079 --> 01:10:23.479
I will eat excessively.
1503
01:10:23.520 --> 01:10:23.720
Yeah.
1504
01:10:23.819 --> 01:10:26.739
So it's not some serious boundaries for you. Yes.
1505
01:10:26.819 --> 01:10:29.109
And so it's not that I'll never eat a pizza again.
1506
01:10:29.510 --> 01:10:31.729
It's I don't need to eat a whole pizza.
1507
01:10:31.829 --> 01:10:32.029
Yeah.
1508
01:10:32.149 --> 01:10:34.250
But if I'm with the kids and it's a cheat
1509
01:10:34.310 --> 01:10:38.359
meal and I'm off the program. I'll eat a half
1510
01:10:38.399 --> 01:10:40.319
a pizza, but I don't need to eat a full
1511
01:10:40.390 --> 01:10:42.970
pizza or I don't need 18 scoops of ice cream.
1512
01:10:43.090 --> 01:10:45.149
I can have two scoops of ice cream. Right.
1513
01:10:45.170 --> 01:10:48.449
So there's things that parameters, I will not do this again.
1514
01:10:48.470 --> 01:10:50.850
And it has been such a powerful thing. And I
1515
01:10:50.909 --> 01:10:53.390
read them every morning, but that's what you have to
1516
01:10:53.430 --> 01:10:56.140
do is you have to condition yourself to continue to
1517
01:10:56.260 --> 01:10:58.439
show up. Otherwise you go back to the old behavior.
1518
01:10:58.520 --> 01:10:58.760
Yeah.
1519
01:10:59.060 --> 01:10:59.239
Yeah.
1520
01:10:59.640 --> 01:11:01.500
And, and, and the people who do go back to
1521
01:11:01.520 --> 01:11:03.340
the old behavior, those are the same people who are
1522
01:11:03.720 --> 01:11:07.350
doing it because everybody else is doing it. Or it's popular. Look, motherfuckers,
1523
01:11:07.359 --> 01:11:09.090
this is going to stay popular. You know why? Because
1524
01:11:09.130 --> 01:11:11.590
it's a real solution. It's not a trend. It's not
1525
01:11:11.609 --> 01:11:14.770
a fucking TikTok. It's not a fucking hashtag. This is
1526
01:11:14.810 --> 01:11:18.630
a life-changing fucking program. Dude, talk about some of the
1527
01:11:18.750 --> 01:11:22.750
internal things that you discovered in terms of like, you know,
1528
01:11:22.770 --> 01:11:26.340
because like, dude, for me, and it sounds stupid, like
1529
01:11:26.399 --> 01:11:29.279
it sounds so stupid now looking back, but dude, I
1530
01:11:29.300 --> 01:11:32.539
could tell you this is no bullshit. I couldn't go
1531
01:11:32.600 --> 01:11:35.500
a fucking week without cheating on my diet. Like, dude,
1532
01:11:35.869 --> 01:11:38.489
I couldn't do it. I could not go more than
1533
01:11:38.560 --> 01:11:40.760
seven days without cheating on my diet. It was, I
1534
01:11:40.800 --> 01:11:45.260
had never fucking done it before I started 75. Like ever.
1535
01:11:45.579 --> 01:11:51.539
Now I'm going, literally, this has been, fuck, what is it,
1536
01:11:51.560 --> 01:11:54.760
two and a half years almost now? Since we started
1537
01:11:54.800 --> 01:11:58.560
this shit? You know, it's been a year since, or
1538
01:11:58.579 --> 01:12:01.140
a year and a half since lockdown started. Dude, I've
1539
01:12:01.180 --> 01:12:05.300
had fucking six days to eat regular, like, what I
1540
01:12:05.359 --> 01:12:07.199
used to call regular food. You know what I'm saying?
1541
01:12:07.680 --> 01:12:11.390
It's just, dude, it changes you. And, you know, yeah,
1542
01:12:11.430 --> 01:12:13.149
I'm not going out and getting fucked up with my
1543
01:12:13.189 --> 01:12:17.750
boys anymore. But you know what? I'm having a better life, dude.
1544
01:12:17.789 --> 01:12:19.930
I've been to baseball games. I've been to sporting events.
1545
01:12:19.970 --> 01:12:22.149
I've been to all these things. And you tell yourself
1546
01:12:22.189 --> 01:12:24.189
you have to do it. You don't have to do that. Yeah, dude,
1547
01:12:24.210 --> 01:12:26.609
I went out last night and saw Tommy Vext in concert.
1548
01:12:26.810 --> 01:12:28.970
And I didn't fucking drink. I was out to, like,
1549
01:12:29.350 --> 01:12:31.590
for me, guys, you know, I'm getting up there in
1550
01:12:31.609 --> 01:12:35.970
the age. You know, I had a, I was home
1551
01:12:36.010 --> 01:12:39.289
by midnight, man. It was a wild night. But, you know, dude,
1552
01:12:39.369 --> 01:12:42.029
I didn't fucking drink. I just went, hung out, had
1553
01:12:42.050 --> 01:12:42.729
a good conversation.
1554
01:12:42.750 --> 01:12:45.250
Like, people are afraid to live without that crutch of
1555
01:12:45.470 --> 01:12:50.300
alcohol in social situations. And getting back to what the
1556
01:12:50.340 --> 01:12:55.600
biggest objection is, people will try to hide their objections as, like,
1557
01:12:55.640 --> 01:12:57.020
they don't have the time or they don't have this.
1558
01:12:57.039 --> 01:12:58.640
But what it really comes down to, dude, is it's
1559
01:12:58.699 --> 01:13:01.710
missing those social things. And the truth is you actually
1560
01:13:01.729 --> 01:13:03.529
get a lot more out of the social interactions you
1561
01:13:03.569 --> 01:13:07.010
do have Because you're going there, you're having meaningful conversations,
1562
01:13:07.029 --> 01:13:10.550
you're present, you're not intoxicated. And like what I do, bro,
1563
01:13:10.590 --> 01:13:13.130
like I was never a coffee drinker before this. You
1564
01:13:13.149 --> 01:13:14.810
know how coffee is kind of an acquired taste, sort
1565
01:13:14.829 --> 01:13:18.689
of like beer, right? So I started drinking decaf coffee, dude.
1566
01:13:19.029 --> 01:13:20.649
So like when I go out with my friends to drink,
1567
01:13:20.710 --> 01:13:24.270
I just order decaf coffees. And like, so I have
1568
01:13:24.310 --> 01:13:27.180
like a little something to drink on. And, bro, I'm
1569
01:13:27.220 --> 01:13:29.359
having the same fucking fun I had before without all
1570
01:13:29.380 --> 01:13:32.119
the bullshit. You know, out all the, you know, because let's.
1571
01:13:32.000 --> 01:13:32.600
Be real, dude.
1572
01:13:33.050 --> 01:13:36.270
Getting party drinking doesn't lead to a lot of good stuff.
1573
01:13:36.550 --> 01:13:38.350
You know what I'm saying? I mean, once in a while,
1574
01:13:38.909 --> 01:13:41.489
it's like hitting a baseball. Three out of ten times
1575
01:13:41.510 --> 01:13:42.930
you're going to have fun, but seven out of ten
1576
01:13:42.970 --> 01:13:45.649
times you're going to fuck up. You know what I'm saying? Like,
1577
01:13:45.800 --> 01:13:47.340
it's just going to be some drama. You're going to
1578
01:13:47.380 --> 01:13:49.979
fight with your girlfriend or your fucking boyfriend or you're
1579
01:13:50.000 --> 01:13:52.739
going to do something stupid. Yeah, dude. It's just not
1580
01:13:52.819 --> 01:13:57.609
worth it. Like, I can't. I drank for the first time, uh,
1581
01:13:59.060 --> 01:14:02.899
since October, I drank October 15th of 2020. And I
1582
01:14:02.939 --> 01:14:05.659
drank for the first time again on my birthday, uh,
1583
01:14:05.720 --> 01:14:08.239
just like a week ago. And bro, I don't know
1584
01:14:08.260 --> 01:14:10.539
that I'll ever drink again. Cause I drank that day
1585
01:14:10.760 --> 01:14:12.850
and it was fucking fun. But like, dude, it really
1586
01:14:13.010 --> 01:14:15.149
fucked with my mentality. The next couple of days where
1587
01:14:15.170 --> 01:14:17.670
I was down, I was fucking pissed off. I was
1588
01:14:17.729 --> 01:14:20.630
mean to people and dude, I don't, I don't need it. Like,
1589
01:14:20.670 --> 01:14:23.130
I just don't need it. Like I don't need it
1590
01:14:23.229 --> 01:14:25.760
for any reason. And, uh, I never thought I would
1591
01:14:25.800 --> 01:14:28.340
be one of the people that like, you know, doesn't
1592
01:14:28.380 --> 01:14:31.600
drink at all, but I, I don't know, man. It
1593
01:14:31.640 --> 01:14:33.840
might happen for me because like, I'm like, you talk
1594
01:14:33.859 --> 01:14:36.000
about never do it again. Like I, I have to like,
1595
01:14:36.060 --> 01:14:38.460
really like, why the fuck am I doing this to myself?
1596
01:14:38.899 --> 01:14:41.670
You know what I mean? And you know, I know
1597
01:14:41.689 --> 01:14:43.970
that sounds like weird because like, dude, before that I
1598
01:14:43.989 --> 01:14:48.569
was a heavy drinker, dude. I drink, you know, whenever
1599
01:14:48.590 --> 01:14:50.970
the fuck I wanted, which usually was like four nights
1600
01:14:51.010 --> 01:14:56.210
a week. And my life's just so much, better, like
1601
01:14:56.229 --> 01:14:57.909
in every way without it. You know what I mean?
1602
01:14:59.260 --> 01:15:04.779
I don't know, man. I, I, uh, I'm super thankful
1603
01:15:04.819 --> 01:15:06.579
for it. I know, I know it's my program, but
1604
01:15:07.460 --> 01:15:09.710
I'm just super thankful. Like I said, in the, uh,
1605
01:15:09.859 --> 01:15:13.460
in the previous podcast, you know, that that fucking soft
1606
01:15:13.479 --> 01:15:16.060
motherfucker had enough fortitude to make it through that first
1607
01:15:16.119 --> 01:15:19.760
fucking trip with 75 hard, man, because it was, it
1608
01:15:19.779 --> 01:15:22.699
was life-changing for real. But you know, you, you had
1609
01:15:22.729 --> 01:15:25.869
to go through, you said 12 to 15. in order
1610
01:15:25.949 --> 01:15:27.329
to get to this point.
1611
01:15:28.130 --> 01:15:30.850
And so for everybody listening, as passionate as we've been,
1612
01:15:30.909 --> 01:15:36.619
and encouraging, empowering, inspiring you to choose different behavior, if
1613
01:15:36.680 --> 01:15:39.140
you're in where Andy was, and I've had periods of
1614
01:15:39.180 --> 01:15:42.380
time like that. Professionally, 2010 was, I mean, it's just awful.
1615
01:15:43.260 --> 01:15:45.550
And you go back, I had to go through that
1616
01:15:45.600 --> 01:15:47.470
period of time to be who I am today. I
1617
01:15:47.510 --> 01:15:49.050
had to go through pain with my dad to be
1618
01:15:49.069 --> 01:15:50.449
who I am today. You had to go through that
1619
01:15:50.510 --> 01:15:53.369
three-year period of time. So anybody listening, if you're going
1620
01:15:53.510 --> 01:15:56.529
through it, I hope what you're hearing is, man, Andy
1621
01:15:56.569 --> 01:15:59.010
was able to do this to get through to find
1622
01:15:59.069 --> 01:16:01.850
his strongest self. Like I've had to go through so
1623
01:16:01.909 --> 01:16:05.510
much pain in my life. And sometimes you seek things
1624
01:16:05.569 --> 01:16:08.189
like this and you finally accept them because you realize
1625
01:16:08.210 --> 01:16:09.529
like this is going to make me realize like how
1626
01:16:09.600 --> 01:16:12.880
strong I can be. You are so strong. Everybody listening
1627
01:16:12.920 --> 01:16:15.180
who's been doubting, you've been listening to the self-taught. You
1628
01:16:15.239 --> 01:16:18.380
are so damn strong. Everything you need is already in you.
1629
01:16:18.899 --> 01:16:20.699
Just choose to go take it one day at a time.
1630
01:16:21.039 --> 01:16:24.939
Just choose to win one day at a time. download
1631
01:16:24.979 --> 01:16:27.779
the app, get started, get those shots of dopamine. It
1632
01:16:27.800 --> 01:16:29.939
feels so good. Every time you hit that little circle,
1633
01:16:29.979 --> 01:16:32.100
like I don't know how somebody could go to bed. Like,
1634
01:16:32.319 --> 01:16:34.000
like you just, it's like, I got to hit it.
1635
01:16:34.039 --> 01:16:35.140
I got to hit it. Then the next day you
1636
01:16:35.180 --> 01:16:37.189
will wake up. I want to get the, and just
1637
01:16:37.390 --> 01:16:38.970
enjoy the game. Yeah.
1638
01:16:39.069 --> 01:16:41.689
Enjoy the program. And what I actually did, which helped
1639
01:16:41.729 --> 01:16:44.149
me is I had a handwritten journal. So I've got
1640
01:16:44.229 --> 01:16:46.810
three journals that are full for my year experience. So
1641
01:16:47.109 --> 01:16:49.369
whether it was journaling, what my good deeds were, you know,
1642
01:16:49.390 --> 01:16:52.079
the random acts of kindness, whether it was You know,
1643
01:16:52.460 --> 01:16:57.050
the conversations I had with strangers, I journaled everything. I
1644
01:16:57.090 --> 01:16:59.930
journaled breakthroughs. I journaled mental things. And so not only
1645
01:16:59.949 --> 01:17:02.050
did I did the app, I did that because it
1646
01:17:02.090 --> 01:17:04.329
got me to slow down and go, okay, what am
1647
01:17:04.350 --> 01:17:07.689
I learning from this? And that's the beauty of this.
1648
01:17:07.789 --> 01:17:10.359
Once again, now we haven't talked about physical in forever
1649
01:17:10.380 --> 01:17:13.479
because it isn't about the physical. It's about you mentally
1650
01:17:13.539 --> 01:17:16.279
breaking through that pain that you're experiencing right now and
1651
01:17:16.359 --> 01:17:18.260
recognizing like you are so damn strong.
1652
01:17:18.420 --> 01:17:24.130
It's interesting too, bro. that everybody thinks it's physical. Like, dude, guys,
1653
01:17:24.289 --> 01:17:27.949
it's not a physical transformation. It's just not. Are you
1654
01:17:28.010 --> 01:17:31.939
going to transform? Absolutely. But what it is is developing
1655
01:17:31.979 --> 01:17:36.979
the skillset and the tools in your brain that actually
1656
01:17:37.359 --> 01:17:44.989
result in a transformation. And that was the big aha moment.
1657
01:17:45.109 --> 01:17:48.250
Whenever I figured out that it wasn't, hey, I'm trying
1658
01:17:48.350 --> 01:17:51.659
to do this, It was, I looked at this fucking
1659
01:17:52.060 --> 01:17:55.380
pizza or this beer and I said, that fucking shit
1660
01:17:55.420 --> 01:17:58.500
don't have any power over me. Fuck that. I'm tougher
1661
01:17:58.520 --> 01:18:00.520
than that. And like, I kind of got my ego
1662
01:18:00.579 --> 01:18:02.920
involved in it. You know what I'm saying? And, and dude,
1663
01:18:03.119 --> 01:18:08.310
that's that switch. It's, it's helped a lot of people
1664
01:18:08.390 --> 01:18:11.770
because they have always looked at it as, you know,
1665
01:18:12.170 --> 01:18:14.829
cause dude, let's be real, man, food and alcohol, like,
1666
01:18:15.890 --> 01:18:19.140
It's very addicting, both things. And, you know, we have
1667
01:18:19.180 --> 01:18:25.000
this situation in life where, you know, we don't really
1668
01:18:25.060 --> 01:18:32.569
understand the perspective of control when it comes to these
1669
01:18:32.609 --> 01:18:35.689
substances because we have to have at least the food
1670
01:18:36.109 --> 01:18:40.350
to actually survive. So it's the equivalent of like saying, hey, man,
1671
01:18:40.390 --> 01:18:43.130
you really should quit heroin, but you've got to do
1672
01:18:43.149 --> 01:18:45.880
it three times a day or you're going to fucking die. right?
1673
01:18:46.260 --> 01:18:48.750
That's where most people struggle with the fucking food is.
1674
01:18:49.069 --> 01:18:52.520
And that's for me, like, if the more I eat,
1675
01:18:52.579 --> 01:18:56.100
the more I eat. And so, you know, when we
1676
01:18:56.180 --> 01:18:59.619
think about food and we think about how important it
1677
01:18:59.680 --> 01:19:03.779
is to have the right food and we start thinking about, well,
1678
01:19:04.039 --> 01:19:07.319
this is a temptation and fuck that. It ain't shit.
1679
01:19:07.359 --> 01:19:11.460
I'm tougher than that. It's different. It's a different game
1680
01:19:11.680 --> 01:19:16.819
than looking at the food and being tempted. Like, fuck,
1681
01:19:16.840 --> 01:19:19.680
you can't fucking tempt me. Fucking piece of pizza. Fuck you.
1682
01:19:20.140 --> 01:19:22.000
You know what I'm saying? Like, that's how I look
1683
01:19:22.100 --> 01:19:24.220
at it. And those those conversations when you get on
1684
01:19:24.260 --> 01:19:25.439
the other side of them. Yeah.
1685
01:19:25.619 --> 01:19:29.060
And you win one after another, after another, after another.
1686
01:19:29.720 --> 01:19:32.270
You actually understand the control that you do have over
1687
01:19:32.310 --> 01:19:34.789
your mind. And that's what gets you to have it.
1688
01:19:35.520 --> 01:19:38.699
That's where the transformation is is born. And that's where
1689
01:19:38.720 --> 01:19:40.609
you see it show up in other areas of your life.
1690
01:19:40.670 --> 01:19:44.289
Cause you realize like, okay, yeah, this fish when I'm
1691
01:19:44.350 --> 01:19:45.880
at the restaurant, cause people say I'm at the restaurant.
1692
01:19:45.899 --> 01:19:47.359
So you just, well, you ordered what I ordered, but
1693
01:19:47.380 --> 01:19:49.359
I ordered fish. Well, if the fish says it has
1694
01:19:49.479 --> 01:19:52.960
butter sauce, Don't order the butter sauce. And I promise you,
1695
01:19:53.000 --> 01:19:55.420
when you walk out of the restaurant, you'll go, I
1696
01:19:55.479 --> 01:19:59.100
feel great because I actually honored the program.
1697
01:19:59.689 --> 01:20:01.029
I was honest with myself.
1698
01:20:01.170 --> 01:20:03.430
I could eat. What'd you eat for dinner? Fish and vegetables.
1699
01:20:03.510 --> 01:20:03.710
Yeah.
1700
01:20:04.189 --> 01:20:06.409
Never tell anybody about the butter sauce. But the reality
1701
01:20:06.449 --> 01:20:09.390
is it's those little decisions where you say, I actually
1702
01:20:09.470 --> 01:20:10.109
did it. Yeah.
1703
01:20:10.649 --> 01:20:12.479
And that's what I ordered it without the butter sauce.
1704
01:20:12.760 --> 01:20:15.760
And that's where the concept that we talk about zero
1705
01:20:15.819 --> 01:20:18.770
compromise comes from. OK, it's all or fucking nothing, man.
1706
01:20:19.210 --> 01:20:22.789
Like those little compromises that you make, that's the slippery
1707
01:20:22.829 --> 01:20:25.470
slope that leads you to being back exactly where you were.
1708
01:20:25.489 --> 01:20:28.520
All right. So we have to be aware of the
1709
01:20:28.579 --> 01:20:31.079
compromises that we make in all areas. You know, where
1710
01:20:31.180 --> 01:20:34.819
are we compromising? And most people are compromising literally fucking everything,
1711
01:20:35.439 --> 01:20:38.710
literally everything in their life. Nothing in their life is
1712
01:20:38.729 --> 01:20:42.270
an absolute nothing, nothing. It's all open for debate. It's
1713
01:20:42.350 --> 01:20:45.539
all open for discussion. It's all open for the circumstances
1714
01:20:45.579 --> 01:20:49.600
or the situation to dictate the actual actions that happen
1715
01:20:49.619 --> 01:20:53.159
in reality. And what this program is really about is
1716
01:20:53.239 --> 01:20:58.770
understanding that it's actually the opposite. These things, the drink,
1717
01:20:58.989 --> 01:21:05.060
the food, the workouts, they have zero control over me. Okay.
1718
01:21:05.239 --> 01:21:11.100
Like I choose to not do the alcohol or do
1719
01:21:11.149 --> 01:21:14.279
this food because I have control over it. It doesn't
1720
01:21:14.319 --> 01:21:17.699
control me. And when you look at a fucking, when you,
1721
01:21:18.060 --> 01:21:20.359
when you've been like me and you've been 350 pounds
1722
01:21:20.420 --> 01:21:25.060
and you have zero control. Okay. And you sit in
1723
01:21:25.100 --> 01:21:26.880
front of a pizza while four of your buddies are
1724
01:21:26.920 --> 01:21:28.859
fucking eating it and they're all getting smashed. I'm sitting
1725
01:21:28.880 --> 01:21:31.899
there drinking coffee, eating fucking some chicken and shit, bro.
1726
01:21:31.920 --> 01:21:35.159
There ain't nothing more powerful than that. Nothing. And we don't,
1727
01:21:36.520 --> 01:21:38.640
we're not conditioned to see it the right way. So
1728
01:21:38.720 --> 01:21:41.420
most people will see that situation. So you kind of
1729
01:21:41.439 --> 01:21:43.100
have to have a fucking chip on your shoulder to
1730
01:21:43.159 --> 01:21:46.090
really get this, you know? And so like when I'm
1731
01:21:46.119 --> 01:21:48.159
sitting down with my friends and they're eating shit and
1732
01:21:48.189 --> 01:21:50.590
drinking beers, I'm drinking a fucking coffee. You know what
1733
01:21:50.609 --> 01:21:54.010
I'm thinking? I'm getting better than all you motherfuckers. That's
1734
01:21:54.050 --> 01:21:56.149
my dialogue. And I don't care if it's you or
1735
01:21:56.170 --> 01:21:58.310
if it's Sal or if it's my fucking dad, it's
1736
01:21:58.329 --> 01:22:02.250
just the way I see shit. So enjoy your shit, motherfuckers.
1737
01:22:02.289 --> 01:22:04.109
I'll be over here getting better. And that's how I
1738
01:22:04.149 --> 01:22:06.470
look at it. And so what that program, what this
1739
01:22:06.510 --> 01:22:09.550
program is really about is bringing the awareness that you
1740
01:22:09.590 --> 01:22:12.550
are in control of you and most of the results
1741
01:22:12.770 --> 01:22:16.409
of your actions. Do we have circumstances that happen? Fuck yeah.
1742
01:22:16.840 --> 01:22:20.199
Do we have unexpected tragedies that happen? Yes. Do we
1743
01:22:20.239 --> 01:22:23.590
have challenges that come out of the blue every day? Well,
1744
01:22:23.649 --> 01:22:25.890
answer that for yourself. How'd your day go today? How
1745
01:22:25.930 --> 01:22:28.649
much shit came that you didn't expect to come? Usually
1746
01:22:28.689 --> 01:22:31.949
a fucking lie. So if we have the skills and
1747
01:22:31.989 --> 01:22:34.590
we have the confidence and we have the demeanor and
1748
01:22:34.630 --> 01:22:37.100
we have all these things that we're talking about, we
1749
01:22:37.140 --> 01:22:40.399
become better equipped to handle them as they come and
1750
01:22:40.439 --> 01:22:43.239
more effective as well and more happy and all of
1751
01:22:43.279 --> 01:22:45.380
the things that we're all out there searching for. So,
1752
01:22:45.899 --> 01:22:50.670
you know, it, Look, man, if I could, you know,
1753
01:22:51.029 --> 01:22:53.590
if I could give you a pill and make you
1754
01:22:53.630 --> 01:22:55.890
understand it, I would, you know what I'm saying? But
1755
01:22:55.930 --> 01:22:59.510
you just can't. Yeah, bro. And, and like seeing all
1756
01:22:59.550 --> 01:23:03.819
these people, uh, like, you know, cause dude, for us saying,
1757
01:23:04.460 --> 01:23:05.880
you know, there's a lot of people that don't do it.
1758
01:23:05.880 --> 01:23:09.159
There's a fuck ton to do too. And those people, man,
1759
01:23:10.479 --> 01:23:12.500
that's fucking awesome. It's one of the coolest things I've
1760
01:23:12.520 --> 01:23:13.220
ever seen in my life.
1761
01:23:13.819 --> 01:23:17.079
It's, it's been amazing to just watch online the stories
1762
01:23:17.140 --> 01:23:19.140
and then, you know, people that friends of mine I
1763
01:23:19.159 --> 01:23:22.340
haven't seen in years and you see it on, you know, Facebook, Instagram,
1764
01:23:22.359 --> 01:23:24.520
they're doing 75 hard and you see like the change
1765
01:23:24.560 --> 01:23:27.119
in them. I mean, it's just all the stories. Think
1766
01:23:27.159 --> 01:23:29.779
of the stories and the impact this program has had
1767
01:23:30.359 --> 01:23:32.630
because you were going to speak at an event and
1768
01:23:32.670 --> 01:23:35.970
you decided I got 75 days in order to prepare.
1769
01:23:36.109 --> 01:23:38.310
And then all of a sudden 75 hard was created
1770
01:23:38.430 --> 01:23:41.090
and you made a choice and you making that choice.
1771
01:23:41.109 --> 01:23:42.770
And I know you don't like when people, you know,
1772
01:23:42.850 --> 01:23:45.069
put you up on a pedestal like this, but you know,
1773
01:23:45.090 --> 01:23:47.779
you think of the impact and the stories and, And
1774
01:23:47.819 --> 01:23:49.670
you got to just keep this thing going, you know,
1775
01:23:49.689 --> 01:23:53.550
because it's just it's incredible what that one decision has
1776
01:23:53.609 --> 01:23:54.189
now done.
1777
01:23:54.210 --> 01:23:57.250
You know, it's I don't think I'll ever go back.
1778
01:23:57.609 --> 01:24:01.520
I mean, I'm afraid of going back. Like as confident
1779
01:24:01.560 --> 01:24:03.520
as I am, my abilities, I still have a couple
1780
01:24:03.539 --> 01:24:05.390
of things I'm afraid of now. For real.
1781
01:24:05.510 --> 01:24:08.670
And we all have those fears, doubts and uncertainties. But
1782
01:24:08.710 --> 01:24:11.470
the program teaches you to silence. Well, it's not it's
1783
01:24:11.489 --> 01:24:13.369
not only that, bro. It teaches you to leverage it.
1784
01:24:13.789 --> 01:24:16.029
So what it does like right now. So I've always
1785
01:24:16.050 --> 01:24:17.810
been afraid of losing my business.
1786
01:24:17.890 --> 01:24:22.710
Right. Like I'm I'm fucking scared of going back to
1787
01:24:22.710 --> 01:24:24.449
1999 and 2000 when I had to live on a
1788
01:24:24.630 --> 01:24:27.270
fucking mattress in a shitty store. OK, I don't want
1789
01:24:27.289 --> 01:24:29.010
to do that shit. I did that shit. Am I
1790
01:24:29.029 --> 01:24:32.680
doing it again? So that scares me.
1791
01:24:32.859 --> 01:24:33.100
Right.
1792
01:24:33.239 --> 01:24:36.180
Like like people, people hear that and they're like, yeah, right.
1793
01:24:36.199 --> 01:24:39.100
You don't really think that. No, dude, trust me. The
1794
01:24:39.149 --> 01:24:41.529
reason I run so hard and the reason I fucking
1795
01:24:41.590 --> 01:24:43.470
work the way I do and the reason I'm so
1796
01:24:43.569 --> 01:24:47.609
into this shit is because I do not ever, ever
1797
01:24:48.010 --> 01:24:49.710
want to go back there. That's how you could tell
1798
01:24:49.770 --> 01:24:52.310
somebody's actually been there. You know what I'm saying? Like
1799
01:24:52.329 --> 01:24:55.270
the motherfuckers I know that like their story is like legit.
1800
01:24:55.770 --> 01:24:57.409
You could tell by the way they act now how
1801
01:24:57.470 --> 01:24:59.609
legit their shit was back then. Like, you know what
1802
01:24:59.630 --> 01:25:01.789
I'm saying? No doubt. Everybody right now is popular to
1803
01:25:01.829 --> 01:25:04.329
have a story. But but do you know the ones
1804
01:25:04.350 --> 01:25:07.010
that really got it? But the other thing that makes
1805
01:25:07.069 --> 01:25:10.390
me afraid, dude, is getting fucking fat again, like fat,
1806
01:25:10.449 --> 01:25:13.069
fat like I was. You know what I'm saying? So
1807
01:25:13.250 --> 01:25:16.409
so like now I've developed that same perspective. Where I'm,
1808
01:25:16.649 --> 01:25:19.520
I'm working as hard as I can every day to
1809
01:25:19.579 --> 01:25:25.260
create as much distance between that fat fucking lazy motherfucker
1810
01:25:25.939 --> 01:25:27.979
and where I'm at now. You know what I'm saying?
1811
01:25:28.100 --> 01:25:30.229
And that's how I look at that shit. And so
1812
01:25:30.869 --> 01:25:32.689
I don't ever want to go back. So I really, I,
1813
01:25:33.510 --> 01:25:39.090
I really don't see myself like stop. Like, I'm not
1814
01:25:39.109 --> 01:25:41.390
saying I won't go on vacation and fucking, you know,
1815
01:25:41.609 --> 01:25:42.390
and enjoy myself.
1816
01:25:42.409 --> 01:25:44.319
But that's like, that's like the power of doing that.
1817
01:25:44.380 --> 01:25:47.609
Never do it again list, you know? Having a power list,
1818
01:25:47.649 --> 01:25:50.609
you know, there's a design to how you show up
1819
01:25:50.649 --> 01:25:51.130
in your life.
1820
01:25:51.260 --> 01:25:55.039
Well, the vacations look different now. Everything looks different. The
1821
01:25:55.060 --> 01:25:59.140
trips look different. The relaxing looks different. Like relaxing is
1822
01:25:59.180 --> 01:26:02.140
no longer sitting on the couch and ordering a fucking
1823
01:26:02.180 --> 01:26:05.229
extra large pizza and a bunch of fucking French fries
1824
01:26:05.250 --> 01:26:07.529
and shit. That's not relaxing. Relaxing is going for a
1825
01:26:07.550 --> 01:26:12.859
fucking lift here at HQ and And then doing some
1826
01:26:12.920 --> 01:26:14.920
outdoor cardio later in the afternoon, I got all the
1827
01:26:14.960 --> 01:26:16.800
bugs worked out and now I can relax like you
1828
01:26:16.819 --> 01:26:19.279
were talking about at the game, you know? So it's
1829
01:26:19.300 --> 01:26:23.779
just a different life, man. And, uh, I still love,
1830
01:26:24.090 --> 01:26:25.869
you know, having a good time, but, but what I
1831
01:26:25.909 --> 01:26:28.409
figured out is I fucking don't need all that extra
1832
01:26:28.449 --> 01:26:32.710
baggage that goes with it, you know? So I don't know, man,
1833
01:26:33.289 --> 01:26:34.789
I think we're onto something here. Yeah.
1834
01:26:36.689 --> 01:26:39.250
I applaud everybody out there who's done it, and I
1835
01:26:39.569 --> 01:26:42.560
applaud everybody who is getting ready to do it.
1836
01:26:42.590 --> 01:26:43.470
Yeah, do it.
1837
01:26:43.489 --> 01:26:45.630
And I say this all the time whenever I get
1838
01:26:45.670 --> 01:26:47.399
a chance to speak. Just give yourself permission.
1839
01:26:47.569 --> 01:26:47.800
Yeah.
1840
01:26:48.640 --> 01:26:50.819
Don't do this for Andy. Don't do this for me.
1841
01:26:50.899 --> 01:26:53.020
Don't do it because you listen to this podcast. Give
1842
01:26:53.060 --> 01:26:55.319
yourself permission to finally go out and figure out how
1843
01:26:55.359 --> 01:26:55.960
great you can be.
1844
01:26:56.140 --> 01:27:02.770
Yeah, man. Yeah. Dude, it's a powerful thing. Dude, thinking
1845
01:27:02.819 --> 01:27:06.000
back to where I was before I did this, and
1846
01:27:06.039 --> 01:27:09.500
how fucking weak of a mind I actually had and
1847
01:27:09.539 --> 01:27:12.939
how successful I had become with that mind. And now
1848
01:27:12.979 --> 01:27:15.270
where I'm at now with like, it gets me excited.
1849
01:27:15.529 --> 01:27:17.850
I'm like, Holy fuck. And you realize there's more. I
1850
01:27:17.869 --> 01:27:18.170
got all.
1851
01:27:18.289 --> 01:27:20.210
That's what you and I talked about. No, it's like,
1852
01:27:20.270 --> 01:27:22.069
it's like you feel like you're still scratching the surface
1853
01:27:22.109 --> 01:27:25.069
of what's capable. There's no question. Fucking I am.
1854
01:27:25.270 --> 01:27:27.310
I mean, I drove here today in a nice car, but, uh,
1855
01:27:27.689 --> 01:27:30.909
Jeff Bezos went to fucking space yesterday so like like
1856
01:27:31.149 --> 01:27:33.109
I I got some fucking going to do you know
1857
01:27:33.189 --> 01:27:37.810
like uh I know where exactly where the fuck I
1858
01:27:37.949 --> 01:27:40.760
am and how much I haven't done yet so I
1859
01:27:40.800 --> 01:27:43.520
don't know man I'm we kind of did like a
1860
01:27:43.560 --> 01:27:47.000
whole fucking 75 hard fucking sales pitch this whole time
1861
01:27:47.039 --> 01:27:49.430
but dude the truth is I can't sell something that's
1862
01:27:49.449 --> 01:27:52.090
fucking free so I'm just trying to help you guys out.
1863
01:27:52.260 --> 01:27:54.020
And I'll go back to what I said earlier. It's
1864
01:27:54.060 --> 01:27:57.520
not selling it. It's what's wrong with encouraging somebody to
1865
01:27:57.539 --> 01:28:00.060
figure out how great they can be. I mean, if
1866
01:28:00.100 --> 01:28:02.560
you're pissed off at us for that, that's a good thing.
1867
01:28:03.319 --> 01:28:05.659
If that causes you to give yourself permission, then that's
1868
01:28:05.680 --> 01:28:07.840
a good thing. What do you think that's about, bro? Like,
1869
01:28:07.880 --> 01:28:10.060
what do you really think that's about? Like the mediocrity
1870
01:28:10.079 --> 01:28:13.899
that's going on? I think people have just been protected.
1871
01:28:13.930 --> 01:28:16.949
You know, it's like anything. You got to 350 pounds
1872
01:28:16.970 --> 01:28:19.989
because you were conditioned to think like, OK, I've got
1873
01:28:20.010 --> 01:28:21.890
a great business. Things are going on in my life.
1874
01:28:21.930 --> 01:28:23.329
So what does it matter from this? So you just
1875
01:28:23.390 --> 01:28:25.090
condition yourself to think, well, it's OK.
1876
01:28:25.130 --> 01:28:25.869
I'm good. Right.
1877
01:28:26.390 --> 01:28:28.649
Nobody questioned it. You just kept doing what you were doing.
1878
01:28:29.069 --> 01:28:31.699
So there's patterns of behavior where you just people are stuck.
1879
01:28:32.520 --> 01:28:34.619
And if you have somebody who's been babied their whole life,
1880
01:28:34.680 --> 01:28:36.880
maybe they've just been conditioned to think that way. Maybe
1881
01:28:36.899 --> 01:28:39.199
they've had somebody never believed in them. Dude, I think
1882
01:28:39.239 --> 01:28:39.779
that's most of.
1883
01:28:39.850 --> 01:28:39.920
It.
1884
01:28:41.029 --> 01:28:43.640
I mean, and so really, yeah, Andy and I, we
1885
01:28:43.649 --> 01:28:46.539
get intense, we get passionate, but the reality is what
1886
01:28:46.579 --> 01:28:48.340
we're really saying is we believe in you.
1887
01:28:48.439 --> 01:28:48.659
Yeah.
1888
01:28:48.920 --> 01:28:51.720
Like we believe that you can do this and we
1889
01:28:51.760 --> 01:28:53.800
believe that this will unlock what it means for you
1890
01:28:53.819 --> 01:28:56.680
to be your best. And so whether it's self-talk, lack
1891
01:28:56.720 --> 01:28:59.640
of belief, people haven't told them that they're good enough. Like,
1892
01:28:59.970 --> 01:29:01.489
Just go live in the pain. Or that they can
1893
01:29:01.529 --> 01:29:05.260
be good enough. Yeah, and go, whatever your pain is,
1894
01:29:05.340 --> 01:29:08.220
go live in that pain. I've been through so much painful,
1895
01:29:08.279 --> 01:29:11.579
tough stuff in my life that for me, like, I just,
1896
01:29:11.960 --> 01:29:16.359
I know that there's another level. And I'm willing to
1897
01:29:16.420 --> 01:29:18.930
get inside that fire and go find that next level.
1898
01:29:18.970 --> 01:29:21.380
And when more pain comes, I will fight through it.
1899
01:29:21.430 --> 01:29:23.090
And I want everybody to experience that too.
1900
01:29:23.630 --> 01:29:27.710
How do you think, like, if we're talking to someone
1901
01:29:27.750 --> 01:29:33.210
right now who's completely... this, let's just say, you know,
1902
01:29:33.409 --> 01:29:37.069
today's the first day they ever thought that maybe they
1903
01:29:37.090 --> 01:29:40.310
wanted to do something like this. What would you say
1904
01:29:40.329 --> 01:29:40.810
to that person?
1905
01:29:41.350 --> 01:29:43.670
I would say, I want you to identify the reason
1906
01:29:43.789 --> 01:29:46.939
why when you think about it tomorrow, you're still going
1907
01:29:46.949 --> 01:29:49.300
to want to do it. And, you know, so our podcast,
1908
01:29:49.319 --> 01:29:51.079
which you've been on is one of the best episodes
1909
01:29:51.100 --> 01:29:53.779
we ever did at the old HQ. It's called the burn.
1910
01:29:53.840 --> 01:29:57.109
And I believe there, there, Tell them a little bit
1911
01:29:57.130 --> 01:30:00.069
about the show. All the speakers and coaches that are
1912
01:30:00.130 --> 01:30:03.670
out there, I think they significantly miss something very important.
1913
01:30:04.569 --> 01:30:06.670
And they talk about why and they talk about purpose,
1914
01:30:06.729 --> 01:30:07.689
which is significant.
1915
01:30:08.250 --> 01:30:11.090
But they forget to talk about the burn. There's a fire.
1916
01:30:11.130 --> 01:30:14.069
There's an underlying burn inside of you that's going to
1917
01:30:14.149 --> 01:30:16.850
cause you to ignite that why and that purpose, which
1918
01:30:16.890 --> 01:30:19.510
then leads to the necessary action to figure out how
1919
01:30:19.590 --> 01:30:22.819
great you can be. I remember the Arte event. speaking
1920
01:30:22.859 --> 01:30:24.439
with Marshall, right? I got to warm up the stage
1921
01:30:24.460 --> 01:30:26.420
for Marshall Falk being a St. Louis born kid. That
1922
01:30:26.439 --> 01:30:28.560
was one of the coolest things ever. And so I
1923
01:30:28.579 --> 01:30:30.380
remember asking you guys, can I stay on and listen?
1924
01:30:30.420 --> 01:30:31.720
And then I got to hear Jocko. I mean, it
1925
01:30:31.739 --> 01:30:35.560
was awesome. And Marshall started talking when Ed was like, okay,
1926
01:30:35.579 --> 01:30:37.260
tell him what room you're in, in the hall of fame.
1927
01:30:37.279 --> 01:30:38.779
He's like, I'm in the room, in the room. Like
1928
01:30:39.199 --> 01:30:40.760
there's like one of 10 guys that ever walked the
1929
01:30:40.800 --> 01:30:42.220
face of the earth that have accomplished in the game
1930
01:30:42.260 --> 01:30:43.100
of football at Marshall.
1931
01:30:43.560 --> 01:30:45.520
And Marshall goes, there was just something in my belly.
1932
01:30:45.560 --> 01:30:46.399
It was just it.
1933
01:30:46.539 --> 01:30:47.880
Like it was, I don't even know what the hell
1934
01:30:47.899 --> 01:30:50.119
you call it. And I remember looking at the screen,
1935
01:30:50.140 --> 01:30:52.979
like Marshall, that's the burn. And we all have it.
1936
01:30:53.270 --> 01:30:55.949
It's like if you right now are teeter-tottering, do I,
1937
01:30:56.050 --> 01:30:58.529
don't I, why are you going to do it? What's
1938
01:30:58.550 --> 01:31:01.289
the fire inside of you? Who's made a sacrifice for you, right?
1939
01:31:01.310 --> 01:31:04.600
So for me, everything's about honoring my mom. All the donations,
1940
01:31:04.619 --> 01:31:07.560
the work. It's always an honor of my mom. That's
1941
01:31:07.579 --> 01:31:10.279
why I said September 18th will be the 75th day
1942
01:31:10.560 --> 01:31:12.260
because every day I'm going to wake up and I'm
1943
01:31:12.279 --> 01:31:14.659
going to write down my mother's name, Janet Fishman Newman,
1944
01:31:14.680 --> 01:31:15.119
the burn.
1945
01:31:15.220 --> 01:31:17.180
Bang, there it is. I will not stop.
1946
01:31:18.229 --> 01:31:21.069
And so everybody has that, right? My story is not
1947
01:31:21.090 --> 01:31:23.689
going to motivate you to do 75 hard, but there's
1948
01:31:23.829 --> 01:31:26.760
something in you that if you grab it and if
1949
01:31:26.800 --> 01:31:28.859
you wake up every day and you say, I'm going
1950
01:31:28.880 --> 01:31:31.340
to connect to that fire inside of me, you ain't
1951
01:31:31.359 --> 01:31:32.140
hitting that snooze button.
1952
01:31:32.319 --> 01:31:34.859
No, I think one of the best things too about
1953
01:31:34.880 --> 01:31:38.399
the program, dude, is that the motivation sort of built in.
1954
01:31:38.880 --> 01:31:41.260
Like if you can force yourself to grit through the
1955
01:31:41.319 --> 01:31:45.090
first 15 or 16 days, like, dude, If you're someone
1956
01:31:45.130 --> 01:31:48.029
struggling right now, I would challenge you. Get through the
1957
01:31:48.069 --> 01:31:51.529
first fucking 16 or 17 days. Okay? That's a lot
1958
01:31:51.770 --> 01:31:56.210
easier of a thing to digest than 75, right? Absolutely.
1959
01:31:56.529 --> 01:31:58.770
Go 15, 16 days. When was the last time you
1960
01:31:58.789 --> 01:32:03.369
did 16 days of fucking anything? Okay? So do it.
1961
01:32:03.880 --> 01:32:07.140
Because what happens is, and by the way, you will
1962
01:32:07.180 --> 01:32:10.869
have to fucking force yourself through that. You will have
1963
01:32:10.909 --> 01:32:14.210
to work. You will be sore as fuck. You will
1964
01:32:14.250 --> 01:32:16.369
be like, holy shit. I don't know if I can
1965
01:32:16.390 --> 01:32:20.979
do this. Your feet will hurt. Okay. But just do
1966
01:32:21.420 --> 01:32:24.880
force yourself through and let the momentum. Sometimes it takes
1967
01:32:24.880 --> 01:32:28.100
20 days. Sometimes it takes 25 days. But what eventually
1968
01:32:28.149 --> 01:32:30.850
happens to every single person that does this is that
1969
01:32:30.890 --> 01:32:34.079
they create the momentum themselves. And that's one of the
1970
01:32:34.119 --> 01:32:37.300
most valuable skills that 75 Hard teaches is that it
1971
01:32:37.399 --> 01:32:41.520
teaches you that you can manufacture momentum on demand. And
1972
01:32:41.560 --> 01:32:46.329
if you can manufacture momentum on demand, you can always
1973
01:32:46.390 --> 01:32:50.010
be motivated. You can always be working towards your goal
1974
01:32:50.050 --> 01:32:52.189
and you can always be in that zone of feeling
1975
01:32:52.250 --> 01:32:54.609
good about it. And you'll realize you have more capacity
1976
01:32:54.649 --> 01:32:56.100
to do more in your life. Yeah.
1977
01:32:56.319 --> 01:32:59.470
That was another byproduct I completely forgot. I had been
1978
01:32:59.510 --> 01:33:01.609
telling myself forever, what do I need to write another
1979
01:33:01.649 --> 01:33:03.609
book for? I'd already written all these books. Why write
1980
01:33:03.649 --> 01:33:06.029
another book? And now my next book is coming out
1981
01:33:06.140 --> 01:33:09.380
and there's a chapter dedicated to you. The Andy Frisella
1982
01:33:09.399 --> 01:33:11.800
chapter on leadership is not for everybody. Did you say
1983
01:33:11.819 --> 01:33:16.319
like one word? But it's, you know, it's one of
1984
01:33:16.359 --> 01:33:18.729
those things. Like I was telling myself, so I wrote
1985
01:33:18.770 --> 01:33:21.189
another book because of 75.
1986
01:33:21.189 --> 01:33:21.609
That's why.
1987
01:33:22.500 --> 01:33:25.020
And so you realize like I have more capacity because
1988
01:33:25.260 --> 01:33:28.079
if you're watching Netflix three hours a night, like you
1989
01:33:28.119 --> 01:33:30.479
could go down to an hour of Netflix, still get
1990
01:33:30.510 --> 01:33:32.590
in a couple of good episodes, right? We want you
1991
01:33:32.630 --> 01:33:35.010
to enjoy your life, but take the two hours back.
1992
01:33:35.050 --> 01:33:37.689
That's all you need to complete the program in its entirety.
1993
01:33:38.449 --> 01:33:40.710
And then your meals. And so, you know, it's one
1994
01:33:40.729 --> 01:33:41.170
of those things.
1995
01:33:41.189 --> 01:33:44.840
There's so many things that happen and it's just people
1996
01:33:44.880 --> 01:33:46.819
got to get out there and trust themselves and believe
1997
01:33:46.840 --> 01:33:47.630
in themselves and do it.
1998
01:33:47.760 --> 01:33:53.319
What could someone from your experience, what could, someone who
1999
01:33:53.359 --> 01:33:57.380
hasn't done it, who, who is just, let's just say they're, they're, they're,
2000
01:33:57.539 --> 01:34:00.199
they're a regular person. Okay. They've got a job. They've
2001
01:34:00.220 --> 01:34:04.859
got bills to pay. They're busy. They've had family obligations.
2002
01:34:06.329 --> 01:34:11.930
What would you say that that person will gain from
2003
01:34:12.250 --> 01:34:12.890
this program?
2004
01:34:13.210 --> 01:34:18.079
I would say it's clarity, awareness, intentionality. And there's like,
2005
01:34:18.500 --> 01:34:22.350
there's like a presence, You will be more intentional when
2006
01:34:22.369 --> 01:34:25.750
you're eating dinner with your family because everything has a purpose.
2007
01:34:25.789 --> 01:34:29.960
Your actions have more purpose. And to me, you add
2008
01:34:30.000 --> 01:34:32.680
that burn to it, the reason why, and you really
2009
01:34:32.739 --> 01:34:35.539
intentionally connect to why you're going to make that sacrifice
2010
01:34:35.560 --> 01:34:38.460
to do that. Everything kind of slows down in your life.
2011
01:34:38.500 --> 01:34:40.479
You see things differently. I promise you, you'll be a
2012
01:34:40.500 --> 01:34:43.260
better wife, a better husband, a better mother, a better father.
2013
01:34:44.090 --> 01:34:47.069
Those are all byproducts. And I think a lot of
2014
01:34:47.109 --> 01:34:49.949
times people hear us talk about winning, right? That's winning.
2015
01:34:50.600 --> 01:34:52.920
Winning is believing that you can have balance in all
2016
01:34:52.960 --> 01:34:54.699
these areas of your life. Not, well, I'm a really
2017
01:34:54.779 --> 01:34:57.310
busy in my business. So therefore I can't do these
2018
01:34:57.350 --> 01:34:57.810
other things.
2019
01:34:58.010 --> 01:34:58.970
You can. Yeah.
2020
01:34:59.510 --> 01:35:01.710
So do it. If you watch yourself, do it. And
2021
01:35:01.970 --> 01:35:04.329
the belief that you'll have in yourself, you'll be, you'll
2022
01:35:04.369 --> 01:35:06.390
believe you could write a book. If you never wanted to,
2023
01:35:06.390 --> 01:35:08.229
if you've never even thought you could write a book,
2024
01:35:08.789 --> 01:35:10.520
you'll slow down and say, I'm going to write a book.
2025
01:35:10.739 --> 01:35:12.420
I'm going to do something. I'm going to start a charity.
2026
01:35:12.460 --> 01:35:14.220
I'm going to do something for my kids. I'm going
2027
01:35:14.239 --> 01:35:16.720
to coach their team. Your life will change.
2028
01:35:16.920 --> 01:35:17.060
Yep.
2029
01:35:17.600 --> 01:35:23.829
Dude. What about, what about, So you mentioned there, you know,
2030
01:35:23.850 --> 01:35:28.079
the dinner with your family and people are confused on
2031
01:35:28.239 --> 01:35:31.039
why you're going to be more present. The reason that
2032
01:35:31.060 --> 01:35:33.270
you're going to be more present at those things, guys,
2033
01:35:33.329 --> 01:35:37.050
is because you're living intentionally, like literally living intentionally because
2034
01:35:37.069 --> 01:35:40.210
you're forced to, because there's so much shit that you
2035
01:35:40.250 --> 01:35:43.729
gotta get done with this program. So what happens is,
2036
01:35:44.409 --> 01:35:47.310
you start scheduling out all of your, like literally every
2037
01:35:47.350 --> 01:35:51.659
minute of your day, and like you said, when that
2038
01:35:51.779 --> 01:35:54.000
time comes, that's what you're doing, and you're doing, it's
2039
01:35:54.020 --> 01:35:58.159
time management and awareness, and living with intent. And that's
2040
01:35:58.180 --> 01:36:01.800
what you're truly going to learn is when you grasp
2041
01:36:01.859 --> 01:36:04.880
these things and start putting them into effect, bro, you're
2042
01:36:04.920 --> 01:36:08.619
calling the shots now, not fucking, uh, you know, the
2043
01:36:08.659 --> 01:36:13.170
bad news you got this afternoon or the, uh, you know,
2044
01:36:13.189 --> 01:36:14.770
the dinner that you didn't know you had to go
2045
01:36:14.829 --> 01:36:18.609
to or the unexpected things. Now you're in control of
2046
01:36:18.649 --> 01:36:21.989
those things. Even when they're happening to you, you're able
2047
01:36:22.029 --> 01:36:25.529
to work through them and move. So, uh, You know, guys,
2048
01:36:25.550 --> 01:36:28.180
there's so many benefits of this program, and we talk
2049
01:36:28.189 --> 01:36:31.180
about them all in depth in the book, which you
2050
01:36:31.199 --> 01:36:34.560
can buy the book, and it's going to tell you
2051
01:36:34.720 --> 01:36:37.859
exactly what's going to happen. All right? So some people
2052
01:36:37.899 --> 01:36:39.699
like to buy the book ahead of time and read
2053
01:36:39.720 --> 01:36:42.149
the book. Some people like to read the book after
2054
01:36:42.170 --> 01:36:44.729
they've done the program. And so if you... Yeah, because, dude,
2055
01:36:44.770 --> 01:36:46.890
it's pretty cool to read the book and be like,
2056
01:36:47.430 --> 01:36:50.170
holy fuck, this is exactly what the fuck happened. You
2057
01:36:50.189 --> 01:36:52.109
know what I'm saying? Yeah, all the how you felt. Yeah.
2058
01:36:52.369 --> 01:36:52.529
So.
2059
01:36:53.689 --> 01:36:57.020
It's neat to see people do both. So if you
2060
01:36:57.060 --> 01:36:59.600
think you're one of the persons that wants to be surprised,
2061
01:37:00.359 --> 01:37:02.380
read the book at the end. And then go to
2062
01:37:02.399 --> 01:37:06.029
the podcast and do it, you know, what is it?
2063
01:37:06.239 --> 01:37:08.359
What did I say? 14 and 80. Go listen to
2064
01:37:08.380 --> 01:37:11.289
those podcasts. Episode 14 and number 80. And you can
2065
01:37:11.649 --> 01:37:13.250
do it. It's free. It'll tell you exactly how to
2066
01:37:13.289 --> 01:37:15.170
do it. You can do it on a sheet of paper.
2067
01:37:15.210 --> 01:37:17.710
I have the templates on my IG page. All right?
2068
01:37:18.550 --> 01:37:20.369
If you want, you can... There is a phase one, two,
2069
01:37:20.390 --> 01:37:22.409
and three. That's right. Yeah, there is. There is a...
2070
01:37:22.350 --> 01:37:26.000
75 hard is only the first part of the program. Um,
2071
01:37:26.340 --> 01:37:29.100
but you know, there's tools to support it. We have
2072
01:37:29.140 --> 01:37:31.439
the app, we have the book, we have all kinds
2073
01:37:31.479 --> 01:37:33.579
of different things for it, but you do not have
2074
01:37:33.640 --> 01:37:35.880
to buy any of it. You could just go listen
2075
01:37:35.899 --> 01:37:38.250
to the podcast and do it. So be one of
2076
01:37:38.289 --> 01:37:39.869
the people, you know, if you don't want to spend
2077
01:37:39.890 --> 01:37:41.710
the money, you think that we're kind of bullshitting you
2078
01:37:41.729 --> 01:37:43.750
a little bit or whatever the fuck you think, uh,
2079
01:37:43.989 --> 01:37:46.210
fucking don't buy shit. Go listen to the podcast and
2080
01:37:46.250 --> 01:37:48.130
do it. See if I'm right. I know I'm right.
2081
01:37:48.649 --> 01:37:52.159
But it will fucking change you and it will make
2082
01:37:52.199 --> 01:37:54.000
your life better. And dude, I just want to say
2083
01:37:54.060 --> 01:37:57.119
thanks for coming on and sharing what you shared today

01:37:57.220 --> 01:38:04.229
because bro, the change that you made, like not just physically,
2085
01:38:04.250 --> 01:38:07.510
I mean, physically, bro, you're a different machine completely. Um,
2086
01:38:07.729 --> 01:38:11.789
but like the mentality sharpness and the ability, like, dude,
2087
01:38:11.850 --> 01:38:13.210
I can see it in your content. I see it
2088
01:38:13.229 --> 01:38:15.090
in the things you're saying. I feel in your energy
2089
01:38:15.550 --> 01:38:18.399
and dude, it's exciting to see that because it's like, yeah, dude,
2090
01:38:18.479 --> 01:38:22.119
it's like a, like, It's like a new version, but
2091
01:38:22.159 --> 01:38:26.770
the old version was fucking awesome. Like, it's fucking cool, dude. So, um,
2092
01:38:27.149 --> 01:38:30.399
you know, congratulations on the work you've done, man. It's cool. And, um,
2093
01:38:31.359 --> 01:38:33.119
I really appreciate you making time to come on the
2094
01:38:33.140 --> 01:38:35.699
show and talk about it. And guys, if you haven't,
2095
01:38:36.000 --> 01:38:37.840
you know, been familiar with Ben, cause we have a
2096
01:38:37.859 --> 01:38:39.659
lot of new listeners. You should go check him out.
2097
01:38:39.720 --> 01:38:44.029
His Instagram is, is it Ben Newman now? Okay. It's
2098
01:38:44.090 --> 01:38:47.590
at continued fight. Um, and where's tell them about like
2099
01:38:47.630 --> 01:38:49.810
where else they can get you. Well, I mean, check
2100
01:38:49.850 --> 01:38:54.409
out the new book, uncommon leadership. It comes out August 3rd. Okay. And, uh, Ed,
2101
01:38:54.449 --> 01:38:55.689
my let wrote the forward.
2102
01:38:56.029 --> 01:38:58.970
And I mean, it's, it's influenced essentially what I wanted
2103
01:38:59.010 --> 01:39:01.369
to do was honor people that have impacted me. This
2104
01:39:01.430 --> 01:39:03.869
is not some biography like about my life. This is
2105
01:39:03.909 --> 01:39:06.689
like lessons I've been blessed to learn from 11 amazing
2106
01:39:06.750 --> 01:39:10.250
leaders that have impacted my life. And so you've had
2107
01:39:10.270 --> 01:39:13.670
a huge impact on my life. This has changed my life.
2108
01:39:13.770 --> 01:39:16.399
I will forever be a different person. And so I
2109
01:39:16.460 --> 01:39:19.000
had to honor you in the book. And I appreciate
2110
01:39:19.060 --> 01:39:21.649
our friendship. And I appreciate you having me on.
2111
01:39:21.699 --> 01:39:26.390
Yeah, likewise. Guys, follow Ben, support Ben, you know, definitely
2112
01:39:26.430 --> 01:39:27.069
buy his book.
2113
01:39:27.689 --> 01:39:29.390
Oh, let me mention one more thing about the book,
2114
01:39:29.409 --> 01:39:31.050
because this is something I don't know if I've ever
2115
01:39:31.789 --> 01:39:34.270
heard of an author doing this. But Charlie, another friend
2116
01:39:34.289 --> 01:39:38.569
of ours, he actually he's just an inspiration.
2117
01:39:38.590 --> 01:39:38.829
Yeah.
2118
01:39:39.270 --> 01:39:42.329
And 100% of the proceeds from the book are being
2119
01:39:42.409 --> 01:39:44.609
donated to start a new facet of his charity to
2120
01:39:44.630 --> 01:39:47.109
honor teachers. So my mother was a teacher. So I've
2121
01:39:47.130 --> 01:39:50.770
already sent him $ 30, 000 from the pre-sales, not like my
2122
01:39:50.850 --> 01:39:53.819
profits from the book, 100%. Like if you buy it
2123
01:39:53.880 --> 01:39:57.520
on Amazon for 25 bucks, I'm donating $ 25, which means
2124
01:39:57.619 --> 01:39:59.520
I'm coming out of pocket with you with every book.
2125
01:39:59.539 --> 01:40:02.140
I ain't making money on these books because I wanted
2126
01:40:02.199 --> 01:40:04.140
to pay it forward in a significant way. Cause there's
2127
01:40:04.180 --> 01:40:06.819
teachers who can't even buy their own school supplies. And
2128
01:40:06.859 --> 01:40:09.300
now I realize that's what my mother went through. And
2129
01:40:09.310 --> 01:40:11.340
I've been blessed with so many things that have happened
2130
01:40:11.359 --> 01:40:13.760
in my career that for me to be able to
2131
01:40:13.819 --> 01:40:16.300
give back with all of you to a cause like
2132
01:40:16.340 --> 01:40:18.020
that for teachers, I don't need.
2133
01:40:17.939 --> 01:40:21.119
To make any money on books. That's awesome, dude. That's awesome, bro.
2134
01:40:21.840 --> 01:40:24.800
Well guys, you know, give him a follow, give him,
2135
01:40:25.170 --> 01:40:27.930
check out his book, uh, check out his content, check
2136
01:40:27.970 --> 01:40:30.250
out his podcast, the burn. It's fucking cool. It's a
2137
01:40:30.289 --> 01:40:32.409
different format than most of the other podcasts out there,
2138
01:40:32.430 --> 01:40:35.390
which I really like. I loved being on it. Um,
2139
01:40:36.439 --> 01:40:38.119
And guys, I just want to say thanks, man. You know,
2140
01:40:38.159 --> 01:40:40.880
thanks for always supporting us. Thanks for sharing the word.
2141
01:40:41.380 --> 01:40:43.899
You know, we don't run ads and we don't do
2142
01:40:43.960 --> 01:40:46.520
all that bullshit everybody else does. So if you like
2143
01:40:46.560 --> 01:40:48.920
the show, if it was good, you know, pay the fee, man.
2144
01:40:48.960 --> 01:40:51.840
Give us a share. Share us on your social or
2145
01:40:51.880 --> 01:40:53.819

01:40:54.880 --> 01:40:56.649
But we are here to help you guys. We're here

01:40:59.689 --> 01:41:01.970
you some fucking awareness or some truth, give you some
2149
01:41:02.029 --> 01:41:05.630
skills to make this place better, man. You know, we're
2150
01:41:05.670 --> 01:41:07.229
all sick of this shit going on in the world.
2151
01:41:07.250 --> 01:41:08.609
And the only way it's going to get better is
2152
01:41:08.649 --> 01:41:12.020
if we fucking get better. So I love you guys.
2153
01:41:12.060 --> 01:41:13.779
I appreciate you guys. And I'll talk to you guys
2154
01:41:13.819 --> 01:41:14.319
next time.

00:00:02.970 --> 00:00:05.750
Went from sleeping on the floor, now my jewelry box

00:00:41.450 --> 00:00:45.090
I'm super excited about today's show. The bet was would
12
00:00:45.109 --> 00:00:47.630
I get the intro right the first try or the
13
00:00:47.670 --> 00:00:49.729
second try or third try? Because right now I've been
14
00:00:49.750 --> 00:00:52.549
having a problem with the intro. True or not true?
15
00:00:53.270 --> 00:00:53.509
True.
16
00:00:54.270 --> 00:00:59.170

about it. Bringing back an old, recognizable voice from the
19
00:01:08.500 --> 00:01:12.230
podcast of right in the beginning, a good friend of mine.
20
00:01:12.250 --> 00:01:17.069
We're going to talk about 75 Hard, which he absolutely crushed,
21
00:01:17.150 --> 00:01:20.109
by the way. We're going to talk about the ins
22
00:01:20.150 --> 00:01:22.430
and outs of his journey and what he experienced. I
23
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:23.959
think you guys are going to really love the show.
24
00:01:24.500 --> 00:01:26.140
Thanks for coming on, brother. Ben Newman.
25
00:01:26.989 --> 00:01:30.170
Andy, it's awesome to be back in the studio with you. Man,
26
00:01:30.189 --> 00:01:32.230
we cut up and had some amazing times.
27
00:01:32.450 --> 00:01:34.709
Oh, bro. On the microphone. Yeah.
28
00:01:34.890 --> 00:01:37.840
On the stages. And, you know, it's wild. People always ask,
29
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:39.260
when are you guys going to get back together? And
30
00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:41.680
it's not that, like, everybody listening, it's not that we
31
00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:43.439
don't want to. No, it's just we both do a
32
00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:45.459
lot of shit. We apologize, but we both do a
33
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.700
lot of shit. It's not as easy as it sounds,
34
00:01:48.780 --> 00:01:50.200
but man, I'm so glad.
35
00:01:50.040 --> 00:01:52.530
To be here with you. Yeah, I'm happy to have you, bro.
36
00:01:52.909 --> 00:01:55.170
We've been trying to get this show together for a
37
00:01:55.209 --> 00:02:00.390
few weeks now because, dude, you just had an, I mean, incredible,
38
00:02:00.450 --> 00:02:05.159
incredible live hard results, the complete program. And I kind
39
00:02:05.170 --> 00:02:08.460
of wanted to go through and just, you know, I mean, bro,
40
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:11.139
you're already a high performance guy. Like that's how you
41
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:13.080
make your living. You know, for those of you guys
42
00:02:13.099 --> 00:02:16.099
that don't know, Ben is one of the best mental
43
00:02:16.139 --> 00:02:19.039
toughness coaches in the world. And one of the best
44
00:02:19.099 --> 00:02:24.270
speakers in the world. He coaches, dude, I'm talking about
45
00:02:24.289 --> 00:02:26.569
the best of the best. The University of Alabama hires
46
00:02:26.610 --> 00:02:28.889
this man to come in and teach them how to
47
00:02:28.930 --> 00:02:32.669
be tougher. All right. When the University of Alabama is
48
00:02:32.729 --> 00:02:35.490
hiring you to come in and teach how to be
49
00:02:35.509 --> 00:02:39.210
a higher performance performing individual, you know what the fuck
50
00:02:39.229 --> 00:02:42.189
you're talking about. So I am super excited to get
51
00:02:42.250 --> 00:02:43.210
into this journey, bro.
52
00:02:43.710 --> 00:02:45.909
I mean, I'll bring some up real quick because I
53
00:02:45.949 --> 00:02:47.569
just got back from Tuscaloosa last night.
54
00:02:47.629 --> 00:02:47.879
Yeah.
55
00:02:48.009 --> 00:02:50.479
So it's, you know, this year, actually, Coach Saban is
56
00:02:50.500 --> 00:02:52.219
my fourth year with the team. He's relied on me
57
00:02:52.259 --> 00:02:53.919
to do more this year than I've ever done. I mean,
58
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:56.949
we built a whole mental conditioning for success program. And so,
59
00:02:56.960 --> 00:02:58.500
I mean, I've been there throughout the entire year. A
60
00:02:58.539 --> 00:03:00.830
lot of people think football is just like Oh, when
61
00:03:00.849 --> 00:03:03.069
the season comes around, like no football never stops.
62
00:03:03.090 --> 00:03:03.469
That's right.
63
00:03:03.610 --> 00:03:06.270
And in that building in Tuscaloosa, it really never stops.
64
00:03:06.310 --> 00:03:08.949
And you're always uncomfortable when you go in. But the
65
00:03:08.990 --> 00:03:11.430
reality is just like so many people who have attempted
66
00:03:11.430 --> 00:03:14.389
75 hard, you're thinking about 75 hard. What's going to
67
00:03:14.449 --> 00:03:17.430
hold you back is your self-talk. It's the same thing
68
00:03:17.590 --> 00:03:20.280
at Alabama. What's going to hold those players back from
69
00:03:20.340 --> 00:03:22.919
competing at their highest level or not? It's their self-talk.
70
00:03:23.659 --> 00:03:26.039
And for you listening, it's your self-talk. For anybody in
71
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:29.240
corporate America, it's your self-talk. Self-talk is what holds us back.
72
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:31.560
And so for me, what I think is kind of
73
00:03:31.650 --> 00:03:34.189
unique for people to hear, I had so much self-talk
74
00:03:34.229 --> 00:03:37.590
around 75 hard because I have my unrequired workout that
75
00:03:37.620 --> 00:03:40.759
I've done forever. And I used to tell myself, Why
76
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:42.560
do I need to do 75R? That was going to
77
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:44.580
be my first question. I do my own required work.
78
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:45.479
Why do I need to do it?
79
00:03:45.620 --> 00:03:47.530
Right. And that was my self-talk. Yeah.
80
00:03:47.810 --> 00:03:49.949
And then I'm like, well, shit. I mean, I've been
81
00:03:49.969 --> 00:03:53.090
friends with Andy forever. Look at the results Andy's getting.
82
00:03:53.189 --> 00:03:55.409
Why would I not challenge myself? Because I'm a mental
83
00:03:55.430 --> 00:03:57.810
toughness coach. Like, I don't need help anymore.
84
00:03:58.090 --> 00:04:00.490
You know, hold on. Let's stop right there. Now, I
85
00:04:00.530 --> 00:04:03.479
want you guys to recognize what we're talking about here
86
00:04:03.580 --> 00:04:06.060
in terms of your own character and your own performance.
87
00:04:06.580 --> 00:04:10.349
This is a man who literally teaches... how to be
88
00:04:10.430 --> 00:04:14.949
mentally tough, who was able to look at it and say, no,
89
00:04:15.310 --> 00:04:17.089
I'm good enough to learn here. I'm good enough to
90
00:04:17.129 --> 00:04:19.569
try some new shit. And that is the mark of
91
00:04:19.610 --> 00:04:22.790
a true champion. It's humility. It's true humility. You know,
92
00:04:23.009 --> 00:04:27.110
people think humility is, you know, I don't brag about
93
00:04:27.149 --> 00:04:29.410
my success. No, dude, you guys got it all wrong.
94
00:04:29.790 --> 00:04:34.810
Humility is the skill of understanding that you can always improve.
95
00:04:34.910 --> 00:04:36.709
You can always get better and you're no better than
96
00:04:36.910 --> 00:04:41.089
the work you do. So, I mean, dude, That's something
97
00:04:41.129 --> 00:04:44.329
most people just won't do. I still have two coaches. Bro,
98
00:04:44.370 --> 00:04:46.610
I get it. One of my coaches is 31 years old.
99
00:04:46.670 --> 00:04:49.410
I'm 42. Yeah, there you go. He's 31 years old.
100
00:04:49.430 --> 00:04:49.629
Yeah.
101
00:04:49.970 --> 00:04:52.569
Drew Hanlon, another St. Louis. Yeah. I mean, this guy
102
00:04:52.610 --> 00:04:54.829
is one of the sharpest. He's a basketball coach, right? Yeah,
103
00:04:54.870 --> 00:04:56.829
he's one of the top NBA skills trainers in the world.
104
00:04:56.949 --> 00:04:57.509
I coach him.
105
00:04:57.550 --> 00:04:59.449
He coaches me. We bounce back and forth like we
106
00:04:59.470 --> 00:05:02.029
sharpen each other's iron. Cause he's 31. I'm going to
107
00:05:02.149 --> 00:05:04.939
say I'm 42. Well, you haven't been through life long enough.
108
00:05:05.069 --> 00:05:05.300
Yeah.
109
00:05:05.449 --> 00:05:07.740
Dude, that guy is so further along than I am
110
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:10.279
in what mental toughness. I mean, the dude stopped eating
111
00:05:10.339 --> 00:05:12.540
cake when he was 10 years old, never had birthday
112
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:15.220
cake because he wanted to play college basketball. I mean,
113
00:05:15.259 --> 00:05:18.100
I mean like talk about like, you can learn so
114
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:20.459
much from people if you just check your ego and say,
115
00:05:20.500 --> 00:05:22.730
look like it's okay to not know everything. And I
116
00:05:22.790 --> 00:05:25.209
hope I go to the grave, not knowing everything. I'll
117
00:05:25.230 --> 00:05:26.850
live an okay life. If I go to the grave,
118
00:05:26.990 --> 00:05:28.290
still wanting to learn and get better.
119
00:05:28.529 --> 00:05:31.079
Dude. I think that's the whole key to the whole thing.
120
00:05:31.579 --> 00:05:33.439
Like the whole key to the whole journey here is
121
00:05:33.490 --> 00:05:38.029
to say, Hey, you know, I'm not as good. I'm
122
00:05:38.089 --> 00:05:40.310
only as good as what I do today. That's how
123
00:05:40.350 --> 00:05:43.470
I see it. I see it as what do I
124
00:05:43.490 --> 00:05:46.230
do today? And I evaluate at the end of the day.
125
00:05:46.790 --> 00:05:49.329
And then tomorrow that I don't care about what I
126
00:05:49.370 --> 00:05:52.329
did anymore. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm learning
127
00:05:52.410 --> 00:05:55.259
every day. I'm trying to improve every day. I look
128
00:05:55.500 --> 00:05:58.459
at every day. I was talking to a guy I
129
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.139
just met who's a really cool guy and has got
130
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:03.779
a really cool story. Chef Rush. I don't know if
131
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:06.899
you know Chef Rush. So Chef Rush is on Instagram.
132
00:06:07.269 --> 00:06:10.970
He's a bodybuilder, a chef, has an incredible story. But
133
00:06:11.009 --> 00:06:13.009
we were texting back and forth just a minute ago.
134
00:06:13.029 --> 00:06:17.629
And we were talking about, you know, we're getting to
135
00:06:17.649 --> 00:06:20.439
know each other. So we were, you know, being talking
136
00:06:20.459 --> 00:06:22.839
about each other's stories and stuff. And he's like, yeah, dude,
137
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:25.399
he's like, you know, every day is the first day.
138
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:27.379
And I'm like, holy shit, bro. I say that all
139
00:06:27.420 --> 00:06:30.379
the time. It's fucking day one. It's day one. Today
140
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:32.839
is day one, 23 years to get here is day one.
141
00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:35.939
You know what I'm saying? When I'm 90 years old
142
00:06:36.420 --> 00:06:38.199
and I'm getting ready to kick it or whatever age
143
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:41.819
that happens to be, um, that's day one, dude, I'm
144
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:44.040
still going to try to learn that day, you know?
145
00:06:44.180 --> 00:06:46.660
And I really think that's the whole key to everything, dude.
146
00:06:46.980 --> 00:06:48.759
Maybe I'm fucking wrong. Maybe I'll get to be old
147
00:06:48.779 --> 00:06:52.610
and I'll say, Hey, I fucking should have quit at
148
00:06:52.610 --> 00:06:55.170
40 and just live my life. But dude, that doesn't
149
00:06:55.209 --> 00:06:57.709
bring me any satisfaction. Well, that's when, you know, we've
150
00:06:57.750 --> 00:06:59.939
all had those periods of time. We've allowed our feelings
151
00:07:00.100 --> 00:07:02.300
to dictate how we live. We've had our feelings to
152
00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:04.660
dictate when we work out, how we choose. I got
153
00:07:04.699 --> 00:07:06.720
a great workout in yesterday, man. It's going to cover
154
00:07:06.740 --> 00:07:08.040
me for three days. I don't need to work.
155
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.139
But no, you said you were working out today. So
156
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:11.920
why would you skip your workout? Cause yesterday was a
157
00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.259
good workout, right? And so people, they choose to take
158
00:07:15.339 --> 00:07:17.879
results to determine how they react and the choices that
159
00:07:17.899 --> 00:07:20.379
they make rather than saying tomorrow is a new day.
160
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:23.430
I mean, it's no secret now. I mean, the win
161
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:25.550
the day episode, everybody loved it. That's why they always
162
00:07:25.589 --> 00:07:27.490
like when we get on the mic together. And the
163
00:07:27.529 --> 00:07:30.509
reality is like, what's changed from years ago when we've
164
00:07:30.529 --> 00:07:30.870
done that?
165
00:07:30.930 --> 00:07:33.689
Nothing. It's still an opportunity to show up and win
166
00:07:33.769 --> 00:07:36.709
one day at a time. Everything has changed, but the
167
00:07:36.750 --> 00:07:38.899
way we approach our day has not changed. Correct. And
168
00:07:38.939 --> 00:07:41.459
that's what tells the story. Now that's actually, that's actually true.
169
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:43.759
You see what I'm saying? That's why I wore this. Yeah.
170
00:07:43.779 --> 00:07:45.360
I specifically wore this polo. Yeah.
171
00:07:45.420 --> 00:07:47.579
And here's why you guys got to go find the footage.
172
00:07:47.610 --> 00:07:49.129
This is, this is the challenge for the team here.
173
00:07:49.569 --> 00:07:51.329
This is the polo that I wore for the first
174
00:07:51.370 --> 00:07:52.009
summer smash.
175
00:07:52.250 --> 00:07:54.910
Yeah. And I went back and saw the picture. I
176
00:07:54.949 --> 00:07:57.370
was skinny as hell. Yeah. It was hanging off you.
177
00:07:57.410 --> 00:07:59.949
And I was like, I could fill this thing out guys. Yeah.
178
00:07:59.980 --> 00:08:00.120
Right.
179
00:08:00.180 --> 00:08:04.019
Because you put in the compound effect and you start,
180
00:08:04.470 --> 00:08:06.449
surrounding yourself and you got to, you got to perform
181
00:08:06.490 --> 00:08:08.970
in the environment that you're put in. If I walk
182
00:08:09.009 --> 00:08:11.970
into Alabama, right. And I'm overweight. I look like I
183
00:08:12.009 --> 00:08:14.069
was eating donuts. I'm not doing my work. Those guys
184
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:16.420
are not going to listen to me. And so when
185
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:18.939
practice ends, typically I'll go with the tight ends and
186
00:08:18.980 --> 00:08:20.560
we get a little lifting together. We'll live for 10
187
00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:22.759
or 15 minutes, get a little pumping. And when I'm
188
00:08:22.819 --> 00:08:24.560
lifting the same weight as them for them to get
189
00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:27.449
their pump, there's a different connection I have with those.
190
00:08:27.810 --> 00:08:30.649
And so people don't realize like the little work you
191
00:08:30.670 --> 00:08:33.490
do every day. When I started working out, I always
192
00:08:33.549 --> 00:08:35.659
worked out. But when I started working out for that
193
00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:37.960
next level, I didn't ask me working in Alabama. When
194
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.620
you and I met, I wasn't working in Alabama.
195
00:08:39.710 --> 00:08:40.830
No. Yeah.
196
00:08:40.870 --> 00:08:43.009
So those are the little things people, they just, they
197
00:08:43.110 --> 00:08:46.110
live in the, in the, just own the day rather
198
00:08:46.149 --> 00:08:48.169
than trying to control the results that you have no
199
00:08:48.230 --> 00:08:48.809
control over.
200
00:08:48.909 --> 00:08:51.820
Yeah. You have control over them. If you dominate one
201
00:08:51.860 --> 00:08:55.120
day at a time, that's it. And most people lack
202
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:59.340
the perspective, right? Like, When you're, when you, I promise
203
00:08:59.379 --> 00:09:02.340
we're going to get into 75 hard, but like, I
204
00:09:02.379 --> 00:09:06.370
like these conversations. So I think from what I've noticed,
205
00:09:07.250 --> 00:09:11.830
most people have a hard time committing to that concept
206
00:09:11.870 --> 00:09:14.350
of day by day by day. Cause they've never actually
207
00:09:14.389 --> 00:09:17.289
done it. And it doesn't like see it. It's when
208
00:09:17.309 --> 00:09:19.389
you're standing at the fucking foot of the mountain, bro,
209
00:09:19.870 --> 00:09:23.059
it seems impossible. You're like, Oh dude, that's way too simple.
210
00:09:23.559 --> 00:09:25.379
That's not really how it's done. You mean you just
211
00:09:25.940 --> 00:09:29.039
execute today and then you do it again tomorrow and
212
00:09:29.070 --> 00:09:31.909
then the next day. And people think like that sounds
213
00:09:32.090 --> 00:09:37.250
overly simple, but it might be, but it's how it works.
214
00:09:37.590 --> 00:09:41.009
There's not a magical thing to it. There's no magic
215
00:09:41.049 --> 00:09:43.320
to it. The only fucking magic to it is the
216
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:46.100
momentum that you create that helps you push you even
217
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:48.980
faster towards where you're going. And if you guys would
218
00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:55.250
just commit, you know, to 75 days, of intentional effort
219
00:09:55.289 --> 00:09:58.990
every single day to do this, you will change tremendously,
220
00:09:59.409 --> 00:10:02.490
but my argument would be for most people, now you
221
00:10:02.549 --> 00:10:05.070
already knew this and I already knew this, but I
222
00:10:05.129 --> 00:10:07.940
think for most people, I think the big awakening that
223
00:10:07.980 --> 00:10:11.139
they have during this program is that they get to
224
00:10:11.179 --> 00:10:13.500
look back and they say, holy shit, it really is
225
00:10:13.539 --> 00:10:16.320
that simple. So if I keep going, I'm going to
226
00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:19.190
get where I want to go. And so this is
227
00:10:19.269 --> 00:10:24.230
something that you have to do to understand. And, you know,
228
00:10:24.330 --> 00:10:25.269
let's talk about that.
229
00:10:25.289 --> 00:10:26.789
Before we get into it, I just want to mention,
230
00:10:26.809 --> 00:10:29.129
because I think it's really important to capture this point.
231
00:10:30.690 --> 00:10:32.289
Why are Andy and I, and I'm just going to
232
00:10:32.309 --> 00:10:35.000
be direct, why are we jerks and assholes? Because we're
233
00:10:35.009 --> 00:10:37.519
challenging you to be your best. That's the part I
234
00:10:37.539 --> 00:10:38.899
don't understand. Right?
235
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:40.639
So people want to like, why would he create this?
236
00:10:40.860 --> 00:10:42.259
People come at me for this. Wait a second.
237
00:10:43.389 --> 00:10:45.970
Why is it a bad thing for somebody to encourage
238
00:10:46.009 --> 00:10:50.250
you to experience something that may unlock the first time
239
00:10:50.309 --> 00:10:53.610
in your life that you understand what it feels like
240
00:10:53.830 --> 00:10:54.750
to be your best?
241
00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:55.080
Yeah.
242
00:10:55.980 --> 00:10:58.200
And even if it's not 75 hard, I talked to
243
00:10:58.259 --> 00:11:01.720
individuals in corporate America, right? People running billion dollar organizations
244
00:11:01.740 --> 00:11:04.059
that have the blessing of coaching. And I'll say to them,
245
00:11:04.740 --> 00:11:07.879
your people are getting so frustrated when all you're doing
246
00:11:07.940 --> 00:11:10.559
as a leader is encouraging them to live their best life.
247
00:11:11.149 --> 00:11:14.190
Why is that so wrong? Well, society is dictating. You
248
00:11:14.230 --> 00:11:16.789
encourage somebody to be their best. And it's like, why
249
00:11:16.809 --> 00:11:18.690
are you coming at me like this? So I just,
250
00:11:18.830 --> 00:11:20.820
I just wanted to open up by saying when we
251
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:24.840
have this conversation, say just know like Andy and I DJ,
252
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:27.419
all of us, like we want you to just experience
253
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:28.600
what it means for you to be your best.
254
00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:28.860
Yeah.
255
00:11:28.980 --> 00:11:31.460
So don't take this the wrong way. Don't take it.
256
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:34.490
We're too challenging. Take it for what it is. Like
257
00:11:34.730 --> 00:11:37.190
Andy created this because he wants people to feel like,
258
00:11:37.779 --> 00:11:39.220
what it is to be your best.
259
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:41.970
I mean, is that right? No, it's right. But it's like,
260
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:45.470
you know, at this point, bro, you know, I'm, you know,
261
00:11:45.490 --> 00:11:47.769
I'll be, I'll be real back. You know, I'm fucking,
262
00:11:47.909 --> 00:11:49.610
I'm not doing this for the motherfuckers. I got to
263
00:11:49.629 --> 00:11:51.360
convince to do it. You know, if you don't, if
264
00:11:51.379 --> 00:11:52.679
you don't figure out why you need to do it,
265
00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:54.279
I don't really give a shit. And if you think
266
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:55.940
I'm mean for doing it or saying it, I don't
267
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:58.039
give a shit either. because I see the benefits that
268
00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:00.820
it makes, you know, and the benefits that it actually
269
00:12:00.860 --> 00:12:03.850
helps people that commit and follow through and want to improve.
270
00:12:03.870 --> 00:12:06.389
Those are my tribe. You know, the people who are
271
00:12:06.429 --> 00:12:08.190
on the fence and they get offended by the stuff
272
00:12:08.230 --> 00:12:11.529
I say, or by the idea of taking personal accountability or,
273
00:12:12.049 --> 00:12:14.950
or working to be better and win and all this shit. Uh,
274
00:12:15.269 --> 00:12:17.940
those aren't my motherfuckers. So I don't really care. Like, dude,
275
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:20.940
you know, if, if you, if you don't want to
276
00:12:20.980 --> 00:12:26.480
get better, then there's two things I can say to you. One, congratulations.
277
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:29.799
because you're in a great place. You know what I'm saying? Like,
278
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:32.100
if you really don't want to get better and you're happy,
279
00:12:32.539 --> 00:12:37.370
that's fucking great, dude, because that's the goal, right? We're
280
00:12:37.379 --> 00:12:39.769
trying to get to a place of contentment, of peace,
281
00:12:40.269 --> 00:12:43.370
of where we've won. And that's different for everybody. So,
282
00:12:44.210 --> 00:12:47.429
you know, if that's where you are and you could truly, honestly,
283
00:12:47.909 --> 00:12:50.009
look in the mirror and think about your life, and
284
00:12:50.049 --> 00:12:53.610
I'm not talking about I'm justifying it. I'm not talking
285
00:12:53.649 --> 00:12:57.210
about telling yourselves a story. I'm not talking about convincing yourself.
286
00:12:57.649 --> 00:13:00.649
I'm talking about genuinely looking in the mirror and saying
287
00:13:00.669 --> 00:13:02.820
I'm fucking proud of the life I have, of who
288
00:13:02.899 --> 00:13:07.899
I am, and what I'm about. And you're fine with that? Congratulations, dude.
289
00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:11.159
You won the fucking game. I haven't figured it out yet,
290
00:13:11.379 --> 00:13:13.750
all right? And that's where I'm coming from. And I've
291
00:13:13.769 --> 00:13:15.990
done a lot of shit, but I got a lot
292
00:13:16.029 --> 00:13:19.000
more shit to do. So for people like me that
293
00:13:19.299 --> 00:13:21.759
identify with that and want to win and want to
294
00:13:21.799 --> 00:13:24.919
be better, that's why I've put this out. You know
295
00:13:24.940 --> 00:13:27.460
what I'm saying? And at the first, when I started
296
00:13:27.899 --> 00:13:32.620
doing the personal development, it was more like, come, come,
297
00:13:32.659 --> 00:13:34.639
you know, come do this with me. And like, not
298
00:13:34.659 --> 00:13:37.590
just 75 hard, but like winning. Like you guys, but
299
00:13:37.610 --> 00:13:41.049
what I realized is, dude, not everybody wants to win.
300
00:13:41.070 --> 00:13:45.169
And you know, for whatever reason. And do I think
301
00:13:45.230 --> 00:13:48.730
it's a shame? Sure. Do I think it's a tragedy? Yeah,
302
00:13:48.750 --> 00:13:50.830
I do, because there's a lot of wasted lives out there.
303
00:13:51.750 --> 00:13:54.230
But at the same time, you and I both know, dude,
304
00:13:54.289 --> 00:13:57.889
we can't really convince anybody to do anything. We can
305
00:13:57.990 --> 00:14:00.820
point you there. We can tell you what it's like.
306
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:04.220
We can show you the results. But unless you truly
307
00:14:04.259 --> 00:14:07.860
want it, I mean, it's a waste of breath and
308
00:14:07.899 --> 00:14:10.559
energy to try to convince. That's something I've been sort
309
00:14:10.580 --> 00:14:13.909
of realizing lately. Like I, and it's brought me some peace, bro.
310
00:14:13.990 --> 00:14:16.789
Like I used to get so fucking mad and people
311
00:14:16.809 --> 00:14:19.909
don't understand this. Like I actually want you to win.
312
00:14:20.289 --> 00:14:23.580
Like it's not some fake shit. Ben actually wants you
313
00:14:23.620 --> 00:14:26.299
to win. If it was just something that we did
314
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:29.799
for a living, we wouldn't be passionate like we are.
315
00:14:30.259 --> 00:14:32.899
We wouldn't dedicate all these extra things that we do
316
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:39.000
to actually helping people win. So, you know, it's a
317
00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:42.100
calling almost, you know what I'm saying? And so I
318
00:14:43.100 --> 00:14:46.059
don't know, like if you don't like what we're saying
319
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:47.899
and you know, maybe it's the wrong time for you.
320
00:14:48.379 --> 00:14:51.149
Maybe you're a piece of shit. Maybe you suck and
321
00:14:51.169 --> 00:14:53.210
you're going to suck. It could be a lot of
322
00:14:53.250 --> 00:14:55.230
those things, you know, but I'm not going to get
323
00:14:55.309 --> 00:14:56.899
angry at somebody if they don't want to do it.
324
00:14:56.970 --> 00:14:59.509
But I can tell you this, the gap between me
325
00:14:59.850 --> 00:15:01.389
and you is going to get a lot fucking wider.
326
00:15:02.409 --> 00:15:04.049
The gap between you and everybody else is going to
327
00:15:04.070 --> 00:15:06.529
get a lot wider if they decide to do it too. So,
328
00:15:06.690 --> 00:15:09.289
I mean, and that's what you always say, dude, right?
329
00:15:10.090 --> 00:15:13.029
What is it? Champions create distance on Fridays. That's fucking right, bro.
330
00:15:13.110 --> 00:15:15.389
And you know what's interesting about that is I've been,
331
00:15:15.919 --> 00:15:18.379
I put that out for probably six, seven years in
332
00:15:18.419 --> 00:15:18.659
a row.
333
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:20.259
I mean, it's every Friday. Every Friday.
334
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.559
And there's people who are like, what does that mean?
335
00:15:23.389 --> 00:15:25.090
I'm like, you have a problem if you got to
336
00:15:25.149 --> 00:15:27.169
ask me what that means. Like, you may not come
337
00:15:27.220 --> 00:15:29.080
up with exactly how I would say it, but it's like,
338
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:30.679
give me, like, you know what that means.
339
00:15:30.700 --> 00:15:34.100
That means you clocked out a Thursday fucking happy hour, bro.
340
00:15:34.159 --> 00:15:36.100
Like 98% of the rest of the world.
341
00:15:36.120 --> 00:15:38.659
But it's like people like, you know what that means.
342
00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:42.919
But most people, they don't, it's the self-talk. It's they
343
00:15:42.950 --> 00:15:44.470
want to have a, what does that mean?
344
00:15:45.129 --> 00:15:45.649
What do you mean?
345
00:15:45.710 --> 00:15:47.850
What does that mean? I mean, it's a basic statement.
346
00:15:47.889 --> 00:15:50.789
Like you're going to create distance on Fridays because other
347
00:15:50.830 --> 00:15:51.529
people don't.
348
00:15:51.629 --> 00:15:54.690
Yeah. That's the biggest opportunity. That's what I've been talking
349
00:15:54.710 --> 00:15:58.860
about in 2020 and 2021, bro. You know that I've
350
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:02.740
had less than seven days off my program in the last, since,
351
00:16:02.940 --> 00:16:05.860
since the lockdown started less than seven days, I've had
352
00:16:05.940 --> 00:16:09.509
six days. off my program, whether I was doing it
353
00:16:09.710 --> 00:16:13.360
like for counting or whether people thought I was just
354
00:16:13.429 --> 00:16:16.539
out living, I'm still doing this shit. You know what
355
00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:19.320
I'm saying? So, and I told people at the beginning
356
00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:22.139
of the lockdowns, I said, look, this is a tremendous opportunity.
357
00:16:22.379 --> 00:16:25.820
Everybody's going to go in their shell because remember in
358
00:16:25.860 --> 00:16:31.240
the recession back in 08, 09, 10, during that time,
359
00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:35.230
everybody in business went in their shell. They stopped trying
360
00:16:35.250 --> 00:16:39.009
to be aggressive and, and I learned a valuable lesson
361
00:16:39.029 --> 00:16:42.960
at that time because we stayed aggressive because we had to,
362
00:16:42.980 --> 00:16:45.720
because we were on the pivot point of making it
363
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:48.399
in business or not making it in business. And so
364
00:16:48.419 --> 00:16:51.059
we had to stay aggressive. And by staying aggressive, when
365
00:16:51.100 --> 00:16:53.210
everybody else pulled back, we were able to create a
366
00:16:53.330 --> 00:16:56.830
huge gap. And that's what this situation is going on
367
00:16:56.870 --> 00:16:59.250
right now in the world. How many of your friends
368
00:16:59.309 --> 00:17:01.570
have gone backwards in terms of their health, in terms
369
00:17:01.610 --> 00:17:04.329
of their physique, in terms of their mentality? You know,
370
00:17:04.809 --> 00:17:09.430
this is a time in history that is unprecedented for opportunity.
371
00:17:09.470 --> 00:17:12.339
That's how I see it. Everybody else is slowing down.
372
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:16.519
Everybody else is taking the excuses of, you know, well,
373
00:17:16.579 --> 00:17:18.839
I can't go to the gym or, you know, I
374
00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:21.960
can't go here or I can't do this or, you know,
375
00:17:23.140 --> 00:17:25.279
they're getting lazy because they don't have to go into
376
00:17:25.299 --> 00:17:27.839
the office. There's all kinds of things. And so I
377
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:30.720
saw this time as an opportunity when everybody else is quitting,
378
00:17:31.349 --> 00:17:35.109
I can go triple in and make a big gap difference.
379
00:17:35.170 --> 00:17:39.170
And guys, it's fucking happened. Okay. So this is how
380
00:17:39.230 --> 00:17:41.450
you should be looking at it as well. You should
381
00:17:41.490 --> 00:17:44.160
be looking at this, this whole situation that we have,
382
00:17:44.299 --> 00:17:49.509
the hardships and the, uh, the lockdowns and all this
383
00:17:49.589 --> 00:17:52.630
crazy shit that everybody keeps like, dude, while the world
384
00:17:52.670 --> 00:17:55.089
goes crazy, you should be getting focused and you'll create
385
00:17:55.109 --> 00:17:57.630
a huge gap between you and whoever else you're competing with.
386
00:17:58.029 --> 00:18:01.029
And don't get it wrong, dude. You are competing with people,
387
00:18:01.069 --> 00:18:02.829
whether you want to admit it or not. That's the
388
00:18:02.869 --> 00:18:07.109
nature of the society that we live in. So, you know,
389
00:18:07.369 --> 00:18:09.759
that's your choices. Your choices is you can either be
390
00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:13.140
like everybody else and go backwards or you could get focused.
391
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:17.240
And while everybody else is, you know, justifying every excuse
392
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:20.259
in the book, you have the opportunity to move forward.
393
00:18:20.299 --> 00:18:26.369
And that's what you're talking about. Champions create distance. The
394
00:18:26.420 --> 00:18:29.710
distance is everybody else clocks out on Thursday night a
395
00:18:29.750 --> 00:18:32.670
happy hour. If you don't do that, you're getting an
396
00:18:32.750 --> 00:18:36.470
extra two months a year, 52 days a year that
397
00:18:36.490 --> 00:18:39.299
you're winning. If you add Saturday onto that, That's an
398
00:18:39.359 --> 00:18:41.799
extra four months a year that you're beating over these
399
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:44.700
motherfuckers that are going out and going to happy hour
400
00:18:44.779 --> 00:18:48.180
on Thursday night and not sobering up until fucking Monday afternoon.
401
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:50.460
And the other part I don't understand about it is
402
00:18:50.519 --> 00:18:53.480
they get the Saturday and they can't even focus on
403
00:18:53.500 --> 00:18:55.779
being with their families or their significant others or the
404
00:18:55.819 --> 00:18:58.480
people that they love because they're like beating themselves up
405
00:18:58.519 --> 00:19:00.640
that they didn't do more on Friday. It's like, well,
406
00:19:00.660 --> 00:19:03.839
that was your choice to be undisciplined on Friday. And
407
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:06.480
it's your choice to do that every Friday. Talk about
408
00:19:06.529 --> 00:19:09.119
how excited you are. And then you get to Saturday,
409
00:19:09.160 --> 00:19:12.079
then you get to Sunday and you're terrified for Monday
410
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:15.509
as a result of your choices. Nobody did this to you.
411
00:19:16.230 --> 00:19:19.799
And that's where I encourage everybody start 75 hard. Don't
412
00:19:20.019 --> 00:19:22.440
think about it. Don't say I'm going to try it.
413
00:19:22.900 --> 00:19:26.059
I encourage you to do it because you'll stop doing
414
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:26.700
that on Friday.
415
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:27.000
Yeah.
416
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:29.680
You're going to say, I now recognize that every day
417
00:19:29.720 --> 00:19:32.000
is an opportunity. And especially on a day where my
418
00:19:32.059 --> 00:19:35.039
competition is going to slow down. When I kill this day,
419
00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:37.839
like I do every other day, I will create that distance.
420
00:19:37.859 --> 00:19:39.480
And when I get to Saturday, I'm going to be
421
00:19:39.549 --> 00:19:41.589
locked in and focus with my kids. Yeah. When I'm
422
00:19:41.609 --> 00:19:43.369
at their game, I'm going to be like locked in
423
00:19:43.410 --> 00:19:46.019
being like so happy that Then I'm sitting there with peace.
424
00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:48.049
My legs are crossed. I'm relaxing.
425
00:19:48.410 --> 00:19:51.329
Watching my son shoot his three-pointer. yeah as opposed to
426
00:19:51.450 --> 00:19:54.970
i'm so terrified i can't even focus on my kid
427
00:19:55.630 --> 00:19:58.799
because of what i didn't do yesterday yet we choose
428
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:00.880
like so many people you choose to do this to
429
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:03.519
yourself and that's the part like we're gonna be direct
430
00:20:03.539 --> 00:20:06.400
today because we care that much Cause it's your self talk.
431
00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:08.220
It's all, it's on you and you have to choose
432
00:20:08.259 --> 00:20:13.240
to change. What, what do you, so let's talk about
433
00:20:13.289 --> 00:20:14.490
your specific journey.
434
00:20:14.809 --> 00:20:19.029
Okay. I mean, well, why like legitimately, like why the
435
00:20:19.089 --> 00:20:21.170
fuck even do it if you're you? Cause you're already
436
00:20:21.230 --> 00:20:23.569
in shape. You're pretty good shape. All right. Now you're
437
00:20:23.630 --> 00:20:28.019
fucking jacked. Okay. That's the benefit of the program. Right. Well,
438
00:20:28.079 --> 00:20:30.480
one of the, it's actually one of the fourth or
439
00:20:30.539 --> 00:20:34.180
fifth benefits of the program. But let's talk about that, dude. Like,
440
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:36.480
I mean, what, what was it that you said? You said,
441
00:20:36.500 --> 00:20:39.509
Hey dude, I want to, I want to do this. Well, I,
442
00:20:39.849 --> 00:20:42.230
I literally just asked myself the question, why would I
443
00:20:42.309 --> 00:20:42.789
not do it?
444
00:20:42.910 --> 00:20:43.069
Yeah.
445
00:20:43.559 --> 00:20:45.880
And I had the self-talk, no reason for me to
446
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:47.180
do it. No reason for me to do it. And
447
00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:49.319
then finally I said, why would I not do this?
448
00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:52.079
And I really did see your results. Cause I remember
449
00:20:52.140 --> 00:20:54.839
conversations that you and I had where it was like,
450
00:20:55.140 --> 00:20:57.160
I'm about to make some changes. And you were like,
451
00:20:57.220 --> 00:20:59.180
people are going to see the changes that I make.
452
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:01.259
And at that point in time, there was no 75 hard.
453
00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:03.079
This is years ago. You and I haven't learned.
454
00:21:03.099 --> 00:21:04.819
I remember saying, I know I've seen it on the
455
00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:09.940
stage when we spoke together at, uh, we're at Virgin islands. Yeah. And,
456
00:21:10.690 --> 00:21:12.950
We were up there on stage and I was 350
457
00:21:12.950 --> 00:21:15.589
fucking pounds. And I said to everybody there, because I
458
00:21:15.609 --> 00:21:20.160
was embarrassed. I said, hey, I know you guys probably
459
00:21:20.180 --> 00:21:21.819
won't believe what I'm about to tell you, but I'm
460
00:21:21.859 --> 00:21:23.980
going to get fucking jacked. And the next time you
461
00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:26.039
all see me, I ain't going to look like this.
462
00:21:26.059 --> 00:21:28.420
Because I was pissed off, dude. We were in the beach.
463
00:21:28.519 --> 00:21:33.420
We were going on the boat. You know, I'm fucking
464
00:21:33.480 --> 00:21:37.119
fat as shit. I let myself go and it pissed
465
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:40.140
me off. And like, I knew that wasn't a representation
466
00:21:40.660 --> 00:21:44.859
of my knowledge set that I'm sitting there teaching the class. Right.
467
00:21:45.460 --> 00:21:46.880
So I'm like, none of these motherfuckers are even going
468
00:21:46.900 --> 00:21:49.240
to take me serious because I'm fucking fat. You know,
469
00:21:49.259 --> 00:21:51.349
I was mad. And so I decided to address the
470
00:21:51.380 --> 00:21:53.490
elephant in the room, which usually I do right away
471
00:21:53.509 --> 00:21:55.990
because that's my nature of conversation. Like, we're going to
472
00:21:56.009 --> 00:21:58.529
get right to the point, dude. And I just said,
473
00:21:58.589 --> 00:22:00.650
I said, you know, hey, I know you guys see this,
474
00:22:01.210 --> 00:22:03.710
but this ain't what it is. It's going to get fixed.
475
00:22:04.269 --> 00:22:06.339
And that was one of the big things I remember
476
00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:10.259
still to this day, bro, was like, cause that was 2015. Yeah.
477
00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:13.579
And so 2016 is when the beginning, cause that was October, 2015. Yeah.
478
00:22:13.700 --> 00:22:17.839
I had already started. I was three 50 then. And
479
00:22:17.859 --> 00:22:20.269
I had started working my way down. And I, on
480
00:22:20.329 --> 00:22:22.789
January 4th, when I started the actual thing with the
481
00:22:22.829 --> 00:22:26.190
video on first form of shit, I was three 20.
482
00:22:26.190 --> 00:22:28.809
So I lost, I'm sorry, three 30. So I lost
483
00:22:28.809 --> 00:22:32.960
20 pounds during that time. So I mean, dude, that
484
00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:36.240
moment of being there, that was a pivotal moment. Cause
485
00:22:36.269 --> 00:22:38.470
I do, I remember it clear as day because you
486
00:22:38.490 --> 00:22:41.009
had a photographer guy there and he had taken a
487
00:22:41.049 --> 00:22:44.150
picture of me. And I remember seeing the picture. I'm like, fuck,
488
00:22:45.029 --> 00:22:47.210
there's no way I'm that fucking fat, but I was,
489
00:22:47.690 --> 00:22:50.190
you know what I'm saying? And, uh, and that was,
490
00:22:50.250 --> 00:22:52.210
that was a, that was a pivotal trip for me
491
00:22:52.250 --> 00:22:53.990
to try to figure out how to really fix this
492
00:22:54.500 --> 00:22:57.599
for fucking good, not for up and down, up and down,
493
00:22:57.660 --> 00:23:00.210
up and down. And, dude, what I've discovered, you know,
494
00:23:00.390 --> 00:23:02.789
obviously with the 75 Hard program, which came out a
495
00:23:02.829 --> 00:23:05.890
few years after that, was that it does come down
496
00:23:06.250 --> 00:23:09.930
to what you're saying about self-talk and winning the conversation
497
00:23:09.970 --> 00:23:12.640
between the two voices that we all have, which is
498
00:23:12.680 --> 00:23:15.000
the boss voice, the voice that makes you believe in yourself,
499
00:23:15.400 --> 00:23:18.099
that tells you the things that are painful to hear,
500
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:20.119
that tells you the things you really don't want to
501
00:23:20.140 --> 00:23:23.329
hear but know are true, okay, and the bitch voice,
502
00:23:23.369 --> 00:23:25.809
the one that says, ah, dude, it's okay. It's all right.
503
00:23:26.170 --> 00:23:28.789
It's not fucking all right. because you're living below your
504
00:23:28.809 --> 00:23:31.849
potential and that, that lower potential not only hurts you,
505
00:23:31.869 --> 00:23:34.970
it hurts your fucking family. It hurts your fucking neighbors.
506
00:23:35.250 --> 00:23:37.990
It hurts your peers. And to be completely honest, when
507
00:23:38.009 --> 00:23:40.269
you look at the state of this country, living below
508
00:23:40.329 --> 00:23:43.049
our fucking potential hurts the whole fucking country. If you
509
00:23:43.069 --> 00:23:46.089
want to talk about trickle down. So that's a, that's
510
00:23:46.130 --> 00:23:48.910
an obligation. I believe that we all have as, as humans.
511
00:23:49.390 --> 00:23:52.390
Now you don't have to believe it's an obligation. You
512
00:23:52.410 --> 00:23:54.369
don't have to take it that serious. I just do.
513
00:23:54.450 --> 00:23:56.460
And I know you do as well, you know, but.
514
00:23:56.430 --> 00:24:00.109
That, your passion behind it right there that's why i
515
00:24:00.150 --> 00:24:02.809
did it i saw your change and i said why
516
00:24:02.970 --> 00:24:05.150
why would i not do this i said i'm going
517
00:24:05.170 --> 00:24:07.990
all in yeah because i fucking did and i've never
518
00:24:08.029 --> 00:24:10.400
been like a huge drinker but i enjoy drinking i
519
00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:12.380
enjoy having a glass of wine with my wife and
520
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:15.779
okay i'm not gonna i can't I can't drink.
521
00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:16.980
Right. That's what I think.
522
00:24:17.009 --> 00:24:19.869
That's probably, that's probably the one that most people don't
523
00:24:19.910 --> 00:24:22.230
start the program because alcohol. I mean, there's probably one
524
00:24:22.289 --> 00:24:23.509
most common if I were to guess.
525
00:24:23.690 --> 00:24:26.210
Yeah. It's probably, I can't give up alcohol. Yeah. And
526
00:24:26.250 --> 00:24:28.609
what I said, why can't you? Well, I, the reason
527
00:24:28.650 --> 00:24:30.490
most people do that is the same reason we all
528
00:24:30.529 --> 00:24:32.769
do that. What happens is we get in a habit
529
00:24:33.390 --> 00:24:36.660
of our, it's our social construct, right? It's our habits.
530
00:24:36.759 --> 00:24:39.680
It's our habitual life. What do we do for entertainment?
531
00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:43.380
We go to dinner and we have drinks. What do
532
00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:46.009
we do on Sunday? We go watch the game at
533
00:24:46.029 --> 00:24:49.390
the bar for brunch and mimosas. They turn into fucking
534
00:24:49.470 --> 00:24:52.069
all day drink fest. You know, those are the things
535
00:24:52.130 --> 00:24:55.900
that we all identify with. And sometimes, you know, we,
536
00:24:56.190 --> 00:25:00.500
we grow, those things come with us from, from college
537
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:02.720
all the way through our whole lives or, you know,
538
00:25:02.819 --> 00:25:05.960
high school. And so our perception of how we live
539
00:25:06.019 --> 00:25:09.089
our lives is, It's hard for people to see, like,
540
00:25:09.109 --> 00:25:10.970
what would my life look like without that aspect? I
541
00:25:10.990 --> 00:25:13.029
would have no friends. I would have no social life.
542
00:25:13.509 --> 00:25:15.609
I wouldn't have any fun because most of the fun
543
00:25:15.650 --> 00:25:18.450
times happen when I'm drunk. And dude, it's just all
544
00:25:18.490 --> 00:25:21.130
not true. You know, and it goes into what you
545
00:25:21.170 --> 00:25:24.410
were saying about the time aspect. What actually happens is
546
00:25:24.450 --> 00:25:27.369
you get your fucking shit together and you discover that
547
00:25:27.390 --> 00:25:30.569
you actually have way more time to do the important
548
00:25:30.630 --> 00:25:32.690
things that you need to do.
549
00:25:32.809 --> 00:25:36.319
You become so efficient with your time because you have to.
550
00:25:37.420 --> 00:25:40.130
And I encourage everybody, if you're going to do it,
551
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:44.019
read the book. The workouts are three hours apart. Not two,
552
00:25:44.119 --> 00:25:45.819
not an hour and a half, not I do my
553
00:25:45.940 --> 00:25:47.980
outside and I got a busy schedule today, so I
554
00:25:48.019 --> 00:25:49.619
come in and get my lift in after that.
555
00:25:49.640 --> 00:25:50.140
No, no, no.
556
00:25:50.500 --> 00:25:54.119
It's three hours apart. It's no little nibbles on your
557
00:25:54.160 --> 00:25:57.210
kid's chocolate chip cookies. It's no stealing a chicken finger.
558
00:25:57.250 --> 00:26:00.029
One motherfucking chicken finger. No stealing one chicken finger. Not
559
00:26:00.069 --> 00:26:02.210
even a bite of a chicken finger. If you're going
560
00:26:02.230 --> 00:26:05.170
to do it, do it. You know, Coach Saban in Alabama,
561
00:26:05.190 --> 00:26:06.680
if you guys were to come to practice with me,
562
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:09.000
always tells us the way you do one thing is
563
00:26:09.019 --> 00:26:11.170
the way you do everything. So if you're going to
564
00:26:11.230 --> 00:26:13.630
cheat and eat that chicken finger, because who's going to
565
00:26:13.670 --> 00:26:14.910
know that I ate the chicken finger?
566
00:26:15.230 --> 00:26:16.119
Guess what? You're a cheat.
567
00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:19.759
And you're not cheating DJ. You're not cheating Andy. You're
568
00:26:19.779 --> 00:26:23.430
cheating yourself. This is your opportunity to figure out how
569
00:26:23.569 --> 00:26:27.029
strong can you be? And I'm not talking physical strength.
570
00:26:27.549 --> 00:26:28.670
People start this because.
571
00:26:28.549 --> 00:26:30.230
They're like, oh, man, look at Andy.
572
00:26:30.269 --> 00:26:32.140
He's jacked now. I mean, look how big he is.
573
00:26:32.190 --> 00:26:34.380
Or look at this guy. Look at this gal. Look
574
00:26:34.420 --> 00:26:36.910
how strong they are. I wish we could get a
575
00:26:36.930 --> 00:26:40.420
peek inside your brain and see like the veins popping
576
00:26:40.440 --> 00:26:43.240
out of your brain now, right? Like everything going on
577
00:26:43.279 --> 00:26:46.480
in your brain from the strength that people develop from going,
578
00:26:46.960 --> 00:26:50.789
there's a level of focus, awareness, intentionality that I now
579
00:26:50.869 --> 00:26:54.690
experience every day as a result of going through this program.
580
00:26:54.950 --> 00:26:56.690
I was joking with you guys before we got rolling.
581
00:26:57.230 --> 00:26:59.450
I now make pancakes for my kids in the morning.
582
00:27:00.420 --> 00:27:04.420
to continue to test myself because unless it's a Saturday
583
00:27:04.440 --> 00:27:06.109
and even like for me now, a cheat day with
584
00:27:06.140 --> 00:27:07.849
pancakes is protein pancakes.
585
00:27:08.029 --> 00:27:08.369
That's it.
586
00:27:08.410 --> 00:27:10.890
I don't even eat regular pancakes. Like, and my cheat
587
00:27:10.950 --> 00:27:13.069
is the protein pancakes. And a lot of people would
588
00:27:13.089 --> 00:27:15.849
eat protein pancakes every day. Like, oh, that's not a cheat.
589
00:27:15.910 --> 00:27:18.890
Like to me, protein pancakes was a cheat. You put
590
00:27:18.910 --> 00:27:21.140
the syrup on, you know, you're going to sneak butter on.
591
00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:24.039
Guess what? If you're on 75 hard, that's a damn cheat. Yeah.
592
00:27:24.059 --> 00:27:26.200
I didn't eat protein pancakes when I was on. So
593
00:27:26.259 --> 00:27:28.579
everybody's looking for the excuse, the edge. Like if you're
594
00:27:28.599 --> 00:27:31.690
going to do it, then do it. Stop cheating yourself
595
00:27:31.750 --> 00:27:34.609
because if you get sloppy in one area, I promise you,
596
00:27:34.630 --> 00:27:35.869
you'll get sloppy in another area.
597
00:27:35.910 --> 00:27:39.339
That's the difference between, okay, like let's fucking address the
598
00:27:39.380 --> 00:27:41.460
elephant in the room. There's a lot of motherfuckers that
599
00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:44.099
have completed this program. It didn't really complete it. They
600
00:27:44.140 --> 00:27:47.039
talk about it, but you and I and other motherfuckers
601
00:27:47.079 --> 00:27:52.309
that have actually done it true, understand who we're talking
602
00:27:52.329 --> 00:27:55.440
to when we talk to them. And look, it's, I
603
00:27:55.500 --> 00:27:58.609
can see. I don't understand. The ones who fake their
604
00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:01.470
way through, they don't understand that it's easy to see
605
00:28:01.509 --> 00:28:02.369
for the ones that didn't.
606
00:28:02.650 --> 00:28:04.119
Well, here's what I'll tell you. All you have to
607
00:28:04.180 --> 00:28:06.250
do is look at the before and after picture. And
608
00:28:06.269 --> 00:28:08.670
I'm not saying somebody has to be ripped, but there's
609
00:28:08.710 --> 00:28:11.150
a significant change. There will be a significant change in
610
00:28:11.269 --> 00:28:13.369
your muscle structure. You do not have to have a
611
00:28:13.430 --> 00:28:15.380
six pack when you're done with the program, but your
612
00:28:15.470 --> 00:28:18.640
muscle structure, the way that your shoulders sit, the way
613
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:19.660
that your traps pop.
614
00:28:19.700 --> 00:28:21.339
I mean, you will look different.
615
00:28:21.380 --> 00:28:21.579
Yeah.
616
00:28:21.700 --> 00:28:24.140
And if you're real heavy, you know, let's just say
617
00:28:24.160 --> 00:28:26.910
you're very, very heavy. You'll still see a difference. You're
618
00:28:26.930 --> 00:28:28.269
going to see a big difference. You're going to look
619
00:28:28.289 --> 00:28:32.109
a lot. You might look similar in shape, but it's smaller. Okay.
620
00:28:32.170 --> 00:28:34.009
Which is the first phase for people who are like,
621
00:28:34.329 --> 00:28:36.650
when I lost my first 50 pounds, when I was
622
00:28:36.670 --> 00:28:39.940
three 50, I didn't look ripped. I just looked smaller
623
00:28:40.299 --> 00:28:42.180
version of three 50. But if I would have seen you,
624
00:28:42.220 --> 00:28:43.559
you would have been able to look at those pictures.
625
00:28:43.579 --> 00:28:45.359
You'd say, what is Andy doing? Yes.
626
00:28:45.640 --> 00:28:48.309
And so I think you got to stop comparing yourself
627
00:28:48.349 --> 00:28:51.009
to somebody else. You have to say, I'm going all
628
00:28:51.109 --> 00:28:54.250
in for me to finally figure out how great can
629
00:28:54.329 --> 00:28:56.549
I be? And as a result of challenging myself to
630
00:28:56.609 --> 00:28:58.940
do that, Like Andy says, is it really going to
631
00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:01.519
show up in other areas of my life? I promise
632
00:29:01.539 --> 00:29:03.980
you that it will. Dude, I remember when you guys
633
00:29:04.019 --> 00:29:05.599
brought me in, you and Ed, it was such an
634
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:07.779
honor for me to speak for the Arte Syndicate.
635
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:09.009
It was awesome.
636
00:29:09.680 --> 00:29:12.559
And some of the relationships and people, and you talk about,
637
00:29:13.059 --> 00:29:16.059
side note, talk about abundance. I literally sent Emily, because
638
00:29:16.099 --> 00:29:18.539
this is the way we operate, right? And I sent Emily,
639
00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:20.240
I'm like, will it be okay? Like some people have
640
00:29:20.279 --> 00:29:22.859
reached out for coaching. Like, is it okay? Because you
641
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:25.920
guys are, it's technically like a coaching practice. Emily goes,
642
00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:29.140
oh my God, please. And so like, that's abundance, right?
643
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:31.289
It wasn't like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Ben, we had you speak,
644
00:29:31.309 --> 00:29:33.869
but stay away. No, but here's the thing, Ben, and
645
00:29:34.390 --> 00:29:36.970
Ed will tell you the same. Ed and I both truly,
646
00:29:38.309 --> 00:29:41.140
truly believe in the mission of that Of that group
647
00:29:41.640 --> 00:29:43.819
And the mission of that group Is to get fucking
648
00:29:43.880 --> 00:29:47.049
better And if You can help Our team get better
649
00:29:47.509 --> 00:29:49.750
They become your team You're part of the same team
650
00:29:50.210 --> 00:29:53.769
And these Dude this is People have such a hard
651
00:29:53.809 --> 00:29:56.329
time Understanding that Because it's so rare That's what it
652
00:29:56.430 --> 00:29:58.170
is And I truly I mean we could go on
653
00:29:58.210 --> 00:30:00.740
about Abundance but I really think that's the whole key
654
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:03.740
to success, bro. But the, even this, the seeds there
655
00:30:03.779 --> 00:30:05.400
were planted for the whole, I mean, it's just, there
656
00:30:05.420 --> 00:30:07.859
was just so much that happened. Just some of the
657
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:09.519
things that you said to me that day, some of
658
00:30:09.539 --> 00:30:10.900
the things that, cause we chopped it up and did
659
00:30:10.940 --> 00:30:13.140
Q and a at the end. And it's just such
660
00:30:13.160 --> 00:30:15.240
a great opportunity for me to continue to learn from you,
661
00:30:15.279 --> 00:30:17.609
to learn from Ed. And you know, we're just going,
662
00:30:17.700 --> 00:30:20.869
it was, I appreciate that. It's a culmination that just
663
00:30:20.930 --> 00:30:22.869
led to like, I'm going all in, like I'm doing this,
664
00:30:23.349 --> 00:30:24.309
like I'm doing this.
665
00:30:24.690 --> 00:30:25.609
You fucking crushed it.
666
00:30:25.769 --> 00:30:31.630
It is. I appreciate you saying that, but I still
667
00:30:31.670 --> 00:30:35.259
don't feel like I'm done. That's the crazy part. And
668
00:30:35.339 --> 00:30:38.660
I will never be finished. I don't even want to
669
00:30:38.700 --> 00:30:41.240
be finished. I have this crazy workout that I do
670
00:30:41.299 --> 00:30:45.359
called the unrequired. It's 10 exercises. It takes 45 minutes.
671
00:30:45.779 --> 00:30:48.099
Most people, when I send it to them, they'll be like,
672
00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:53.589
I can't do this once. This morning was the 754th
673
00:30:53.670 --> 00:30:56.589
straight day that I've done this. Not like a kick.
674
00:30:56.940 --> 00:30:59.980
It's 10 exercises. And I'm talking like you plank for
675
00:31:00.019 --> 00:31:04.839
almost 10 minutes, 250 straight jumping jacks, 250 straight air squats.
676
00:31:04.859 --> 00:31:05.960
Like it's not easy.
677
00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:08.059
I'm not talking about like I went and just did
678
00:31:08.059 --> 00:31:10.720
10 pushups a day for seven, like most people can't
679
00:31:10.779 --> 00:31:14.460
do it one time. And you just become obsessed with
680
00:31:14.500 --> 00:31:16.700
how great that you can be. And that's what I
681
00:31:16.740 --> 00:31:20.309
was doing. That was the excuse for not doing 75 hard.
682
00:31:20.809 --> 00:31:22.910
And then you started to realize, Oh, you bring all
683
00:31:22.950 --> 00:31:27.579
this together. And then you just become obsessed. And I
684
00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:30.980
always like to say, don't be seduced by success. It
685
00:31:31.059 --> 00:31:31.579
makes you.
686
00:31:31.519 --> 00:31:34.420
Realize and crave like, what's the next book that I
687
00:31:34.460 --> 00:31:35.140
can read? Yeah.
688
00:31:35.200 --> 00:31:36.900
What's the, who's the next person that I can meet?
689
00:31:36.920 --> 00:31:39.240
What's the next challenge that I can go through? What
690
00:31:39.279 --> 00:31:42.339
can I learn now? And that has nothing to do
691
00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:43.720
with physical appearance.
692
00:31:43.960 --> 00:31:44.140
No.
693
00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:47.210
Physical appearance has to do with that change that you're
694
00:31:47.230 --> 00:31:47.809
talking about.
695
00:31:48.490 --> 00:31:50.470
Just wanting to be the best that you can be.
696
00:31:50.490 --> 00:31:54.130
And I, I think a lot of what I've experienced, like,
697
00:31:54.660 --> 00:31:57.819
I knew I cannot cheat. And I think for guys
698
00:31:57.859 --> 00:32:00.819
like you and I, people are going to watch, right?
699
00:32:01.019 --> 00:32:03.839
And so I forced an environment. You start posting that
700
00:32:03.880 --> 00:32:07.200
every day, people are going to be like, hey, weren't
701
00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:12.109
you doing 75 hard? So there was no cheating the system.
702
00:32:12.410 --> 00:32:15.509
And so I would encourage everybody, number one, start. Don't
703
00:32:15.670 --> 00:32:19.289
pick the strategic time. I had vacation with my wife.
704
00:32:19.329 --> 00:32:21.130
She wanted to kill me. We went to the coolest place,
705
00:32:21.170 --> 00:32:25.170
Blackberry Farms. right outside of Knoxville, Tennessee. This place was amazing.
706
00:32:25.210 --> 00:32:28.170
It's one of like the... like second biggest wine collection
707
00:32:28.190 --> 00:32:31.490
in the United States. I was on 75 hard. I
708
00:32:31.579 --> 00:32:32.430
couldn't drink wine.
709
00:32:32.490 --> 00:32:34.240
She was like, why do you have to be doing this?
710
00:32:34.259 --> 00:32:36.640
She's like, I understand. But like, how easy could it
711
00:32:36.680 --> 00:32:38.140
have been for me to just cheat DJ? I could
712
00:32:38.160 --> 00:32:40.480
have been like, Hey babe, just you and me here.
713
00:32:40.720 --> 00:32:40.900
Right.
714
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:43.440
I just, or I'll do a tasting. Yeah. I'll just
715
00:32:43.480 --> 00:32:46.079
do a tasting. It's not drinking. No, I didn't drink
716
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:47.599
any wine. And guess what?
717
00:32:47.640 --> 00:32:47.880
Yeah.
718
00:32:48.140 --> 00:32:49.880
I had an amazing time with my wife. You know,
719
00:32:49.900 --> 00:32:53.349
what's funny dude is as easy as that would be
720
00:32:53.529 --> 00:32:59.829
to do. It doesn't, Like, I would never want my
721
00:32:59.930 --> 00:33:03.460
wife to look at me like I'm a fucking weak bitch. So, like,
722
00:33:03.519 --> 00:33:05.759
you know what I'm saying? You get what I'm saying? Like,
723
00:33:05.799 --> 00:33:08.700
the pressure of her watching you, even though she's upset,
724
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:11.660
probably made you hear more. I said it when I
725
00:33:11.700 --> 00:33:14.089
spoke for Arte. I said it when we were doing
726
00:33:14.109 --> 00:33:16.150
the Q & A. I said, Andy, what would happen
727
00:33:16.829 --> 00:33:18.230
if you would have said to me, hey, Ben, how
728
00:33:18.250 --> 00:33:21.130
was your morning routine today? And I would have been like... Andy,
729
00:33:21.150 --> 00:33:22.670
you know, I just, I didn't feel like waking up.
730
00:33:22.730 --> 00:33:24.869
I hit the snooze button 13 times, had a big
731
00:33:24.910 --> 00:33:28.609
fat stack of pancakes, scheduled or rescheduled my first three
732
00:33:28.650 --> 00:33:29.250
calls because I.
733
00:33:29.230 --> 00:33:31.710
Wanted to be ready for you guys. Yeah, yeah.
734
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:32.079
Right?
735
00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:33.640
I'm a fake. I'm a fraud.
736
00:33:33.700 --> 00:33:36.900
I coach people on discipline and accountability. And so part
737
00:33:36.920 --> 00:33:39.099
of it is you have to choose, first challenge yourself,
738
00:33:39.140 --> 00:33:41.859
but then choose the environment and build the environment that's
739
00:33:41.880 --> 00:33:42.759
going to cause you to do it.
740
00:33:42.940 --> 00:33:43.140
Yeah.
741
00:33:43.319 --> 00:33:45.289
And then the feeling that you get when you win
742
00:33:45.369 --> 00:33:48.009
because you push yourself to do it. I cannot go
743
00:33:48.029 --> 00:33:51.319
speak for Arateh And be a fake who doesn't do
744
00:33:51.359 --> 00:33:51.940
what he says.
745
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:54.180
He's going to do. That's not the way that life works.
746
00:33:54.220 --> 00:33:54.440
No.
747
00:33:54.700 --> 00:33:58.039
And people think. They see people who are successful. Well,
748
00:33:58.059 --> 00:34:00.259
how'd they get there? Cut corners, giving it to them.
749
00:34:00.599 --> 00:34:02.119
Most people had to work for it.
750
00:34:02.220 --> 00:34:06.079
Yeah, most. Most. Not like, there's very few that- The fucking,
751
00:34:06.380 --> 00:34:09.820
the rule that people think it is, which is you
752
00:34:09.840 --> 00:34:12.699
got lucky or you inherit it, that's the fucking exception
753
00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:15.329
to the rule. And listen, motherfuckers, not a single one
754
00:34:15.349 --> 00:34:17.690
of you motherfuckers listening to this is the exception to
755
00:34:17.730 --> 00:34:20.989
that rule. It's not fucking happening. You're not winning the lottery.
756
00:34:21.269 --> 00:34:24.110
You're not getting an inheritance. The fucking stars are not
757
00:34:24.170 --> 00:34:27.699
going to align. Now what? You got to build the skills.
758
00:34:28.110 --> 00:34:31.070
You got to build the ability to persevere, to endure,
759
00:34:31.349 --> 00:34:34.659
to have grit, to understand that what you put in,
760
00:34:34.699 --> 00:34:38.079
you will get out. And those are responsibilities of the individual.
761
00:34:38.420 --> 00:34:42.630
They are not the responsibilities of society. Okay. If society
762
00:34:43.190 --> 00:34:45.690
left it up to the way they have it, they
763
00:34:45.750 --> 00:34:48.250
want you to be a consumer of them. So they
764
00:34:48.309 --> 00:34:50.309
want you to sit on the couch. They want you
765
00:34:50.329 --> 00:34:52.730
to order the fucking pizza. They want you to eat
766
00:34:52.750 --> 00:34:55.360
the Doritos. They want you to eat the Krispy Kreme
767
00:34:55.679 --> 00:34:59.260
because you're a better consumer when you do so. And bro,
768
00:34:59.659 --> 00:35:01.780
that is not what life is. You are not meant
769
00:35:01.820 --> 00:35:04.079
to be born and be a part of a fucking
770
00:35:04.119 --> 00:35:07.940
economy and just consume shit. You're meant to become what
771
00:35:07.980 --> 00:35:10.500
it is you were meant to become. And most of us,
772
00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:12.739
and the reason I say us, even though me and
773
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:15.929
you are killing it, is because we all feel the
774
00:35:15.989 --> 00:35:19.889
effects of this nationwide. We all feel the effects right
775
00:35:19.929 --> 00:35:22.510
now of mediocrity, all of us. We all feel the
776
00:35:22.570 --> 00:35:26.989
effects of cutting corners, all of us. We all feel
777
00:35:27.010 --> 00:35:30.010
the effects of people not educating themselves, all of us.
778
00:35:30.409 --> 00:35:33.110
And all of those things can be corrected by taking
779
00:35:33.150 --> 00:35:37.429
the personal responsibility for our own ability to move forward
780
00:35:37.449 --> 00:35:39.889
and our own discipline, our own grit, our own fortitude,
781
00:35:39.929 --> 00:35:44.230
our own ability to do the fucking work. Okay. Those
782
00:35:44.289 --> 00:35:46.909
are the things that are going to fix everything. And
783
00:35:46.949 --> 00:35:49.230
it starts with the individual. And this is why I'm
784
00:35:49.289 --> 00:35:53.929
so fucking passionate about this program and RSA and first form.
785
00:35:54.269 --> 00:35:58.510
And pretty much everything I do is because the ripple
786
00:35:58.570 --> 00:35:59.610
effect comes from that.
787
00:36:00.869 --> 00:36:02.889
I don't know what you just said that made me
788
00:36:02.929 --> 00:36:05.969
think of this. One of my other favorite comments is
789
00:36:06.010 --> 00:36:08.320
when people like see you're on phase one. I didn't
790
00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:10.480
know there was a phase one. Tell me about phase.
791
00:36:11.960 --> 00:36:13.429
I know. Wait a second.
792
00:36:14.079 --> 00:36:15.780
What do you mean you didn't know? Where do I
793
00:36:15.820 --> 00:36:18.260
find out the information for phase one? Like the immediate
794
00:36:18.280 --> 00:36:20.639
thing I want to say is there's a damn good chance.
795
00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:23.340
You actually didn't complete 75 hard. If you didn't even
796
00:36:23.380 --> 00:36:26.889
know there was a phase one, like if you follow Andy,
797
00:36:26.969 --> 00:36:29.650
like templates, like I always tell them, like, cause I
798
00:36:29.670 --> 00:36:30.550
don't know why they asked me.
799
00:36:30.610 --> 00:36:32.429
I didn't create the program. You and I are friends.
800
00:36:32.969 --> 00:36:35.869
Like I created the program. The reason they ask you, bro,
801
00:36:35.889 --> 00:36:37.860
is the same reason they asked Sean Whalen. And they
802
00:36:37.929 --> 00:36:40.880
ask other people who have just fucking crushed it. It's
803
00:36:40.940 --> 00:36:44.099
because they, they see you as the authority now that
804
00:36:44.119 --> 00:36:45.219
you've went through the process.
805
00:36:45.980 --> 00:36:48.360
But I send them to, I say, it says templates
806
00:36:48.500 --> 00:36:51.139
right on his, on his Instagram page. Just go to
807
00:36:51.179 --> 00:36:53.949
templates there. And people act like, what is phase? There's
808
00:36:54.010 --> 00:36:56.210
a third phase. Let me be real with you. Because
809
00:36:56.250 --> 00:36:58.869
people want the easy way. Dude, I gotta be real
810
00:36:58.889 --> 00:36:59.409
for a second.
811
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:03.690
But doesn't that exact thing kind of answer some questions
812
00:37:03.730 --> 00:37:05.550
for you of why things are the way they are?
813
00:37:05.789 --> 00:37:08.650
That's my point. Like, bro, I'm like looking around like this.
814
00:37:08.849 --> 00:37:11.369
Once they finish the first, they're like, I pray to
815
00:37:11.469 --> 00:37:15.309
God there's nothing else. Yeah, dude. And if that's the case,
816
00:37:15.449 --> 00:37:17.599
if you feel that way, bro, you didn't fucking do it.
817
00:37:17.809 --> 00:37:20.349
That's right. I was craving.
818
00:37:20.469 --> 00:37:20.710
Yes.
819
00:37:20.929 --> 00:37:22.489
Do you know how pissed off I was? I couldn't
820
00:37:22.510 --> 00:37:24.889
start phase three until the final 30 days. I'm like,
821
00:37:24.949 --> 00:37:27.199
let me get at this thing. Let me get at it.
822
00:37:27.699 --> 00:37:29.699
And I even, you and I messaged, it was, the
823
00:37:29.739 --> 00:37:32.679
conversation was awesome. And I was like, I was literally
824
00:37:32.719 --> 00:37:36.500
thinking to myself, does Andy walk around talking to strangers? Like,
825
00:37:36.539 --> 00:37:38.500
this is crazy. Like this is the one thing out
826
00:37:38.519 --> 00:37:40.219
of this whole damn program. How's this going to work?
827
00:37:40.429 --> 00:37:41.489
And what did I tell you? That was one of
828
00:37:41.510 --> 00:37:44.309
the coolest fricking things. I remember I was driving down
829
00:37:44.349 --> 00:37:45.570
the street one day and I was like, got to
830
00:37:45.610 --> 00:37:48.289
find a stranger. And there was this old man. I
831
00:37:48.329 --> 00:37:50.349
can't remember the damn name on his hat, but there's
832
00:37:50.369 --> 00:37:53.710
this old man. He's walking right by the Ritz and
833
00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:56.530
I pull over and I say, sir, I said, can
834
00:37:56.570 --> 00:37:58.489
we talk for a moment? I said, every day I
835
00:37:58.510 --> 00:38:01.110
like to meet somebody new. This old guy must have
836
00:38:01.130 --> 00:38:03.090
been 85 years old. He walks over to the car.
837
00:38:03.369 --> 00:38:05.389
He starts talking. He's got this name on his hat.
838
00:38:05.449 --> 00:38:07.550
I said, tell me about yourself. Well, I fought in
839
00:38:07.570 --> 00:38:09.449
the wars and we did. It was one of the
840
00:38:09.469 --> 00:38:10.389
coolest conversations.
841
00:38:10.809 --> 00:38:13.820
The name on his hat, he said, Caterpillar didn't start
842
00:38:13.840 --> 00:38:16.619
with hats like this. I created the hats like this.
843
00:38:16.659 --> 00:38:18.480
He goes, you see the name? It was one of
844
00:38:18.500 --> 00:38:22.059
the coolest stories. I'm like, without the program, I would
845
00:38:22.099 --> 00:38:26.079
have never stopped. Yeah. To talk to a stranger. I
846
00:38:26.079 --> 00:38:28.119
talk to strangers in stores and things. Right. Yeah.
847
00:38:28.179 --> 00:38:30.619
But like to pull the car over and meet this
848
00:38:30.699 --> 00:38:32.800
old man, it was hotter than hell outside. And he
849
00:38:32.840 --> 00:38:33.820
was getting his walk in.
850
00:38:33.940 --> 00:38:34.179
Yeah.
851
00:38:34.420 --> 00:38:37.280
And he had fought for our country, created this hat,
852
00:38:37.380 --> 00:38:40.059
the pride that man had for life at 85 or
853
00:38:40.099 --> 00:38:42.699
whatever age he was. But because of the program, it
854
00:38:42.780 --> 00:38:46.000
causes you to get uncomfortable. Like that was uncomfortable. Those
855
00:38:46.079 --> 00:38:49.800
cold showers are uncomfortable. Until they aren't.
856
00:38:49.889 --> 00:38:50.119
But you.
857
00:38:50.869 --> 00:38:53.170
But you do it. And now there's sometimes I'm like,
858
00:38:53.389 --> 00:38:54.449
I'm going to get a little cold shower.
859
00:38:54.469 --> 00:38:54.980
That's it, dude.
860
00:38:55.000 --> 00:38:57.260
But you start to do all these things and you
861
00:38:57.280 --> 00:39:01.320
start to realize like you find out when you're uncomfortable,
862
00:39:01.380 --> 00:39:04.219
when you experience pain, that's where your real strength comes from.
863
00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:04.800
A hundred percent.
864
00:39:04.840 --> 00:39:08.090
And people are scared of challenge. They're scared of adversity.
865
00:39:08.989 --> 00:39:12.210
Get in the fire. Go experience what the pain is
866
00:39:12.230 --> 00:39:14.530
because the pain is where you find your true grit,
867
00:39:14.550 --> 00:39:17.820
your true conviction, your true passion. your true purpose for
868
00:39:17.900 --> 00:39:20.949
doing what you're doing. And once again, back to the beginning,
869
00:39:21.469 --> 00:39:23.510
why are we so bad for being this direct to
870
00:39:23.550 --> 00:39:26.289
encourage you to go find that within yourself? If that's
871
00:39:26.329 --> 00:39:29.690
what unlocks you to understand what you were truly destined
872
00:39:29.730 --> 00:39:32.380
to do, in your life, why.
873
00:39:32.239 --> 00:39:34.400
Would you fight trying something like this? Not only that,
874
00:39:35.320 --> 00:39:38.760
what's more noble in life than helping someone discover that?
875
00:39:40.059 --> 00:39:42.559
So let's say you're someone like you and I and
876
00:39:42.579 --> 00:39:43.960
a couple of the other guys in the room here
877
00:39:44.360 --> 00:39:47.150
who have finished that program and you want to talk
878
00:39:47.190 --> 00:39:50.409
to someone about it. That's a good thing. You're, you're,
879
00:39:50.510 --> 00:39:52.969
you're opening their eyes and you're going to make them better.
880
00:39:53.010 --> 00:39:55.030
I just did a little, a show, a little Andy
881
00:39:55.050 --> 00:39:59.969
cam earlier, um, talking about accountability. You know, one of
882
00:40:00.010 --> 00:40:03.349
the reasons that most people can't push accountability and hold
883
00:40:03.389 --> 00:40:05.130
other people to the line is because they're not holding
884
00:40:05.150 --> 00:40:07.070
it to their own line. You know what I'm saying?
885
00:40:07.510 --> 00:40:09.639
So like when you, when you fucking, when you have
886
00:40:09.659 --> 00:40:12.019
to go to, you know, have a meeting or have
887
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:15.739
a difficult discussion or, uh, you know, these things that
888
00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:18.340
are sort of confrontational type things that people don't like.
889
00:40:18.780 --> 00:40:20.820
which are, by the way, required to be a great
890
00:40:20.860 --> 00:40:23.909
leader or run a company or run a team, okay,
891
00:40:25.690 --> 00:40:27.750
if you're not doing that, the likelihood is the reason
892
00:40:27.769 --> 00:40:29.699
you have a hard time doing it and it hurts
893
00:40:29.739 --> 00:40:31.179
so much is because you're not holding yourself to that
894
00:40:31.199 --> 00:40:33.820
same shit. And that's it. That's why Nick Saban can
895
00:40:33.840 --> 00:40:36.739
fucking say, this is how I need it done. Not
896
00:40:36.780 --> 00:40:39.989
because he's out there snapping the football perfectly or throwing
897
00:40:40.030 --> 00:40:43.050
perfect spirals, but because he is living his life in
898
00:40:43.190 --> 00:40:46.070
other ways the same exact way, the same principles.
899
00:40:46.150 --> 00:40:48.230
I'll tell you what's crazy, though. He still coaches the
900
00:40:48.269 --> 00:40:50.989
defensive backs. He can spin it better than most quarterbacks.
901
00:40:51.489 --> 00:40:54.150
He loves getting down and dirty with the guys. Guess
902
00:40:54.190 --> 00:40:57.880
who sprints in between all drills at practice?
903
00:40:58.840 --> 00:40:59.780
Not surprising.
904
00:40:59.800 --> 00:41:03.000
He's about to turn 70 years old And Nick Saban
905
00:41:03.179 --> 00:41:06.699
sprints in between each drill. So there is a line
906
00:41:06.739 --> 00:41:10.019
that is drawn. If you are a player or a coach,
907
00:41:11.070 --> 00:41:14.429
you better get yourself from point A to point B
908
00:41:14.530 --> 00:41:17.469
as fast as you possibly can because there's only so
909
00:41:17.510 --> 00:41:20.670
much time the NCAA gives us on these clocks. And
910
00:41:20.710 --> 00:41:23.980
so he sprints in between drills. First practice I went
911
00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:26.619
to and I saw it, it was just like, I've
912
00:41:26.659 --> 00:41:30.219
been given a doctorate in leadership. I can't even believe
913
00:41:30.260 --> 00:41:32.909
they pay me to be there. I could pay them
914
00:41:33.619 --> 00:41:36.230
a lot of money for the doctorate that I've earned
915
00:41:36.349 --> 00:41:39.889
in watching that man lead. And the greatest lessons are
916
00:41:39.909 --> 00:41:42.670
the most simple lessons. Him sprinting is one of the
917
00:41:42.710 --> 00:41:47.070
greatest lessons that you'll see. His level of discipline is extraordinary.
918
00:41:47.570 --> 00:41:49.829
So are you not going to run in between drills?
919
00:41:50.369 --> 00:41:50.690
Please.
920
00:41:51.760 --> 00:41:57.130
You better be running between drills. But it's expectation. And
921
00:41:57.190 --> 00:41:59.570
it's also what you were just referring to that led
922
00:41:59.610 --> 00:42:01.469
me to think of this. It's a level of tolerance.
923
00:42:02.090 --> 00:42:06.230
If you're a leader and there's a lack of discipline...
924
00:42:06.760 --> 00:42:10.280
in the people that you lead, there's probably a level
925
00:42:10.320 --> 00:42:14.380
of tolerance that you have for undisciplined behavior because you
926
00:42:14.480 --> 00:42:17.320
are undisciplined. And I know that's hard to hear, but
927
00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:20.400
that's the reality of the situation because deep down, you know,
928
00:42:20.900 --> 00:42:22.820
how can I actually have a real conversation?
929
00:42:23.019 --> 00:42:25.500
Say that again. That is super fucking important for people
930
00:42:25.519 --> 00:42:26.900
to understand. Say what you just said.
931
00:42:27.260 --> 00:42:30.739
So when there's a, when there's a lack of discipline
932
00:42:30.840 --> 00:42:33.590
in the people that you lead, right? There's, there's a,
933
00:42:33.599 --> 00:42:37.679
a level of tolerance that you allow. And that's why
934
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:40.599
they're undisciplined. And it typically comes, the reason why they're
935
00:42:40.619 --> 00:42:43.539
tolerant is because you are undisciplined in your life.
936
00:42:43.739 --> 00:42:48.030
That's what you tolerate. That's how much you tolerate yourself slipping.
937
00:42:48.449 --> 00:42:51.449
So how can I talk to DJ? DJ, you need
938
00:42:51.469 --> 00:42:54.030
to do this, this, and this. When DJ watches, I've
939
00:42:54.090 --> 00:42:55.829
never actually done that myself. That's right.
940
00:42:56.210 --> 00:42:58.730
And that's one of the things like, I remember my
941
00:42:58.849 --> 00:43:03.110
first experience with supplement superstores was with Sal and Sal
942
00:43:03.119 --> 00:43:04.809
and I have talked about it so many times. Like
943
00:43:05.110 --> 00:43:07.389
I'd come into the location on eager road. I get
944
00:43:07.449 --> 00:43:09.809
my stuff. Sal's behind the counter. I didn't know the
945
00:43:09.829 --> 00:43:11.849
family owned the damn business. I mean, like we didn't
946
00:43:11.869 --> 00:43:14.489
know each other then. And I remember the experience of
947
00:43:14.530 --> 00:43:16.909
talking to Sal. Sal made me feel like a million bucks.
948
00:43:16.929 --> 00:43:18.389
Sal made me feel like, man, I'm going to go
949
00:43:18.429 --> 00:43:19.889
to the gym and I'm going to kill it today.
950
00:43:20.369 --> 00:43:23.369
And he made me feel great. And I look back
951
00:43:23.449 --> 00:43:24.710
on it. He was working the counter.
952
00:43:24.730 --> 00:43:25.030
Yeah.
953
00:43:25.469 --> 00:43:28.210
So can Sal have a conversation with somebody at Supplement
954
00:43:28.230 --> 00:43:31.469
Superstores about working the counter? Can you and Chris have
955
00:43:31.489 --> 00:43:34.059
a conversation with somebody about what it means to engage
956
00:43:34.079 --> 00:43:37.820
with a client behind the, yes, because we know your story.
957
00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:40.820
We know you being in Springfield, sleeping on a couch,
958
00:43:41.139 --> 00:43:44.059
having to literally look at an empty store over and
959
00:43:44.199 --> 00:43:46.670
over and over again with nobody to talk to and
960
00:43:46.710 --> 00:43:50.849
to keep going. You've done it. Most leaders, they haven't.
961
00:43:51.090 --> 00:43:53.309
And they say, why do my people act this way?
962
00:43:53.630 --> 00:43:58.349
Because you tolerate undisciplined behavior because you are undisciplined. And
963
00:43:58.909 --> 00:44:01.070
if somebody wants to fight us and go, okay, these
964
00:44:01.110 --> 00:44:03.030
guys think everybody needs to do 75 hard.
965
00:44:03.170 --> 00:44:03.550
You know what?
966
00:44:04.090 --> 00:44:05.730
I'll pull the challenge back. You don't have to do
967
00:44:05.730 --> 00:44:08.409
75 hard. Read a book 10 pages a day for
968
00:44:08.449 --> 00:44:10.519
a year. Most people won't do it.
969
00:44:10.750 --> 00:44:10.869
Yeah.
970
00:44:11.730 --> 00:44:14.550
I'm not saying you have to do my crazy workout
971
00:44:14.650 --> 00:44:18.909
every day. Just do something. Most people have not done anything.
972
00:44:20.110 --> 00:44:22.030
Do you know most people haven't read a book outside
973
00:44:22.050 --> 00:44:26.530
of high school? Most people, most fucking people have never
974
00:44:26.590 --> 00:44:29.420
read a fucking book after they graduate high school, cover
975
00:44:29.460 --> 00:44:35.440
to cover. Most. And we wonder why the world is like, shit, fuck, man. Dude,
976
00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:37.889
we have an obligation to get people better. You know
977
00:44:37.909 --> 00:44:39.329
what I'm saying? Like, dude, that's why you and I
978
00:44:39.349 --> 00:44:42.510
are so driven to do this shit. Like I, this
979
00:44:42.550 --> 00:44:45.050
is not, this is not, dude, you know, this, like
980
00:44:45.510 --> 00:44:47.889
I've committed to this. Like when I, when we first
981
00:44:47.929 --> 00:44:49.809
started doing a show, bro, I was soft as fuck.
982
00:44:50.170 --> 00:44:53.079
You know, I talked hard and I had, I had
983
00:44:53.119 --> 00:44:57.280
made some, a bunch of money, but like, dude, would
984
00:44:57.320 --> 00:45:00.739
I not destroy that motherfucker now? Oh, I mean, come on.
985
00:45:00.780 --> 00:45:02.760
You're, you're a completely different person, but it's like when
986
00:45:02.780 --> 00:45:04.900
you talk about a thousand days, like that's what, like
987
00:45:04.960 --> 00:45:09.289
my unrequired workout. The goal is 1,000 days. And the
988
00:45:09.329 --> 00:45:10.769
real goal is, in fact, I'm never going to, I mean,
989
00:45:10.809 --> 00:45:12.030
I'm probably just going to keep going, right?
990
00:45:12.050 --> 00:45:12.489
Yeah, 10,000 days.
991
00:45:12.530 --> 00:45:16.340
Because I realize, like, what has happened over those 1,000 days,
992
00:45:17.300 --> 00:45:20.019
starting the program, doing these other things, it's changed me.
993
00:45:20.139 --> 00:45:23.570
Yeah. It's changed how focused I am with my kids. And, dude,
994
00:45:23.690 --> 00:45:24.710
what's that change worth?
995
00:45:26.889 --> 00:45:29.369
You cannot put a price tag I'll tell you what
996
00:45:29.610 --> 00:45:32.030
My marriage with my wife is better than it has
997
00:45:32.090 --> 00:45:34.829
ever been We'll be married 15 years in November My
998
00:45:34.989 --> 00:45:37.820
marriage with my wife Is better than it has ever
999
00:45:38.059 --> 00:45:40.079
been Why do you think that is? It's a level
1000
00:45:40.099 --> 00:45:42.829
of focus, it's a level of awareness It's You know,
1001
00:45:42.849 --> 00:45:45.300
like 75 hard, when you look in the mirror and
1002
00:45:45.320 --> 00:45:48.420
you are breaking yourself down on a daily basis, it
1003
00:45:48.480 --> 00:45:52.150
exposes your flaws. And it's caused me to look and go, God,
1004
00:45:52.170 --> 00:45:53.650
there were things I was doing. I thought I was
1005
00:45:53.690 --> 00:45:55.230
a great dad and I feel like I'm a pretty
1006
00:45:55.269 --> 00:45:57.250
good dad, but like I got areas to improve as
1007
00:45:57.269 --> 00:45:59.880
a dad. I thought I was a really great husband.
1008
00:45:59.980 --> 00:46:01.739
There's areas I got to improve as a husband. And
1009
00:46:01.780 --> 00:46:04.099
I still have those areas to improve. But it's like,
1010
00:46:04.199 --> 00:46:06.019
if you're going to go all in, if you're truly
1011
00:46:06.079 --> 00:46:08.840
doing the program, you're going to see everything in your life.
1012
00:46:09.340 --> 00:46:11.400
It's not like, oh, I just get my, you see
1013
00:46:11.739 --> 00:46:17.170
everything in your life. Everything looks completely different. You communicate
1014
00:46:17.210 --> 00:46:19.590
with people different. You talk with people different. There's a
1015
00:46:19.630 --> 00:46:22.309
different level of love. It's a different level of emotion.
1016
00:46:22.349 --> 00:46:26.170
Like it is, you will be different. Dude, I tell
1017
00:46:26.210 --> 00:46:28.340
people this all the time. you know, and this is where,
1018
00:46:28.400 --> 00:46:30.380
this is how like I talk to people about doing
1019
00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:33.519
the program, right? Like how much money, by the way,
1020
00:46:33.539 --> 00:46:34.559
the program's fucking free.
1021
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:37.659
Okay. So, so I'm going to take your excuse away,
1022
00:46:38.179 --> 00:46:40.460
but you can buy the book. It books like 20
1023
00:46:40.460 --> 00:46:42.760
bucks or something. I guarantee you the books. If you,
1024
00:46:43.239 --> 00:46:44.659
if you read the book, you would pay a lot
1025
00:46:44.679 --> 00:46:50.190
more than 20 bucks for it. But, um, my point is, okay,
1026
00:46:50.210 --> 00:46:53.829
it's fucking free. Now, and I ask yourself, if you,
1027
00:46:54.010 --> 00:46:59.510
if you could develop the discipline to overcome whatever the
1028
00:46:59.590 --> 00:47:02.639
problems are in your life, whether it be your fitness,
1029
00:47:02.719 --> 00:47:09.380
whether it be your career, whether it be a frustrating relationship, anything, okay?
1030
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:14.699
If you could develop the grit, the fortitude, the discipline,
1031
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:18.889
the control, the self-esteem, the confidence that you're lacking, that
1032
00:47:18.909 --> 00:47:21.769
you pretend to have, all the shit that you pretend
1033
00:47:21.809 --> 00:47:24.250
to be, if you could really be it, what would
1034
00:47:24.269 --> 00:47:26.860
you pay to be that? Because you could be that
1035
00:47:27.179 --> 00:47:31.539
in 75 fucking days. It just takes a commitment. And
1036
00:47:31.579 --> 00:47:33.780
people think, you know, people think, you know, if you
1037
00:47:33.900 --> 00:47:36.110
asked them like, hey, can I sell you a product
1038
00:47:36.329 --> 00:47:37.849
that would do all these things? What the fuck would
1039
00:47:37.869 --> 00:47:39.989
they pay for it? I know what I would pay.
1040
00:47:40.010 --> 00:47:42.570
And it would be every fucking single dollar I had.
1041
00:47:43.929 --> 00:47:47.030
If I could buy. But you know why? Because you
1042
00:47:47.070 --> 00:47:49.070
know that you will earn more as a result of
1043
00:47:49.110 --> 00:47:53.610
doing it. Dude, look, bro, this is no bullshit. If
1044
00:47:53.630 --> 00:47:57.690
you took 2016 Andy and you said, all right, here's
1045
00:47:57.710 --> 00:48:00.050
what I can give you. I can give you all
1046
00:48:00.070 --> 00:48:02.320
of these things and you'll become this person. And this
1047
00:48:02.340 --> 00:48:06.760
is what it will cost. And that's really what I got.
1048
00:48:06.780 --> 00:48:10.550
I would have paid everything I fucking had. That's the truth.
1049
00:48:10.949 --> 00:48:12.409
Every fucking thing. I would have sold my house. I
1050
00:48:12.750 --> 00:48:14.429
would have sold my fucking cars, which I had some
1051
00:48:14.469 --> 00:48:17.820
good cars then too. I would have fucking... That's, that's
1052
00:48:17.860 --> 00:48:20.840
how much I'm getting goosebumps talking about it, dude, because like, that's,
1053
00:48:21.179 --> 00:48:24.639
I'm telling the honest truth. I would give every fucking
1054
00:48:24.699 --> 00:48:27.780
single cent that I had to have what I have now,
1055
00:48:28.380 --> 00:48:31.000
if it could have been bought, but it can't be bought.
1056
00:48:31.599 --> 00:48:33.880
It has to be earned. And that's the beautiful thing
1057
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:35.940
about this program. And that's also why I make it
1058
00:48:35.980 --> 00:48:39.019
for free because I know that when you get done
1059
00:48:39.039 --> 00:48:41.260
with that program, you will feel the same way I
1060
00:48:41.320 --> 00:48:44.400
feel about it. And it's, you know, it's like.
1061
00:48:45.300 --> 00:48:47.300
I think there's a lot, if we go like to
1062
00:48:47.320 --> 00:48:50.219
the self-talk and like you've limited, like when you hear
1063
00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:52.340
Andy's passion, like you just shared, it's because you just,
1064
00:48:52.360 --> 00:48:54.260
you've completely gotten rid of all self-talk.
1065
00:48:54.500 --> 00:48:54.639
Yeah.
1066
00:48:54.659 --> 00:48:56.820
There's no fears. There's no doubts. There's some, they'll come
1067
00:48:56.889 --> 00:48:59.010
in every now and again. The conversations are short, right?
1068
00:48:59.969 --> 00:49:05.610
Most people, like society's protected people for so long now
1069
00:49:05.869 --> 00:49:08.610
that most people have never experienced challenge and adversity, right?
1070
00:49:08.630 --> 00:49:10.630
You say, what's the biggest piece of challenge you ever
1071
00:49:10.650 --> 00:49:13.170
been through? Oh, in third grade, the ice cream fell
1072
00:49:13.210 --> 00:49:17.699
off the cone at Baskin Robbins. I said, you're in trouble.
1073
00:49:18.119 --> 00:49:20.639
I always ask people like business owners, ask that question
1074
00:49:20.940 --> 00:49:22.900
of people you're looking to hire. What's the biggest piece
1075
00:49:22.940 --> 00:49:24.380
of adversity you've been through in your life and what
1076
00:49:24.400 --> 00:49:25.679
have you been best at in your life? I always
1077
00:49:25.719 --> 00:49:28.110
tell leaders, ask those questions because number one, you'll figure
1078
00:49:28.130 --> 00:49:30.510
out of their discipline. Somebody says, I'm an award-winning piano player.
1079
00:49:30.909 --> 00:49:32.829
Why are you an award-winning piano player? Play piano two
1080
00:49:32.849 --> 00:49:34.570
hours a day for four days a week. Okay, you
1081
00:49:34.590 --> 00:49:36.289
can work for my company. For 15 years.
1082
00:49:36.309 --> 00:49:39.150
Right. What's the adversity and challenge you've been through? Oh, man,
1083
00:49:39.170 --> 00:49:40.469
I watched my mom battle cancer.
1084
00:49:40.489 --> 00:49:42.699
It was unbelievable. And she's just persevered. And it's just
1085
00:49:43.000 --> 00:49:45.079
incredible the example she is for our family. And I
1086
00:49:45.139 --> 00:49:46.400
love her to death. And I would do anything for
1087
00:49:46.440 --> 00:49:48.559
my mom. Come work for my company. Ice cream fell
1088
00:49:48.579 --> 00:49:50.179
off the cone. Don't work for the company.
1089
00:49:50.219 --> 00:49:50.440
Yeah.
1090
00:49:50.639 --> 00:49:53.880
Most people who are probably resisting doing 75 hard. And
1091
00:49:53.920 --> 00:49:56.599
I say this in a loving way. You probably haven't
1092
00:49:56.639 --> 00:49:59.820
been pushed challenge and really been uncomfortable yet in your life.
1093
00:49:59.880 --> 00:50:02.820
Those are the motherfuckers needed most. Yes. So this is
1094
00:50:02.900 --> 00:50:06.300
maybe your opportunity to say, okay, here's Andy to support me.
1095
00:50:06.699 --> 00:50:09.260
It's free. There's other people that have done it. There's
1096
00:50:09.300 --> 00:50:12.699
a community around it. I have to compete against myself,
1097
00:50:12.969 --> 00:50:15.530
but I'm not by myself. So I'm going to choose
1098
00:50:15.570 --> 00:50:18.010
to get into the fire to finally make myself uncomfortable
1099
00:50:18.050 --> 00:50:20.719
in life. And if the byproduct of that is you
1100
00:50:20.760 --> 00:50:23.210
are going to win more in all areas of your life,
1101
00:50:23.809 --> 00:50:27.489
why would you not try? Why would you not try?
1102
00:50:27.530 --> 00:50:32.059
Just start. Challenge yourself. Go all in and do it.
1103
00:50:32.670 --> 00:50:36.949
I think it's also important, you know, for people to
1104
00:50:37.010 --> 00:50:47.349
understand that you are undersold what you're capable of on purpose. Okay.
1105
00:50:47.449 --> 00:50:51.820
You were told your whole life success is for other people, uh,
1106
00:50:51.880 --> 00:50:55.980
being incredibly fit. That guy was, he's genetically blessed. Okay.
1107
00:50:56.119 --> 00:50:59.860
Being wealthy. Well, you know, that guy got lucky. Um,
1108
00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:02.019
you know, you need, you need to calm down and, and,
1109
00:51:02.300 --> 00:51:05.340
and get realistic. Dude, we're fucking told that by fucking everybody.
1110
00:51:05.760 --> 00:51:07.730
And what happens is we're sold a bill of goods.
1111
00:51:07.750 --> 00:51:10.449
It just isn't fucking true because I believe, and I do,
1112
00:51:10.590 --> 00:51:14.070
I truly believe this. I don't give Two shits, where
1113
00:51:14.090 --> 00:51:17.230
you come from, what your race is, who you like
1114
00:51:17.269 --> 00:51:20.610
to have sex. I don't fucking care. All of you
1115
00:51:20.769 --> 00:51:24.429
have greatness inside of you. Every fucking one of you.
1116
00:51:24.730 --> 00:51:27.590
And the thing is, we are sold a bill of
1117
00:51:27.630 --> 00:51:31.530
goods by our peers, by our teachers, by the media,
1118
00:51:31.699 --> 00:51:34.860
by society, that we are meant to be average. We
1119
00:51:34.900 --> 00:51:37.280
are meant to be regular people. And a lot of
1120
00:51:37.320 --> 00:51:42.050
people buy that. And what happens is, You know, we
1121
00:51:42.090 --> 00:51:45.000
become miserable. We become fat. We become lazy. We become
1122
00:51:45.739 --> 00:51:48.400
earning way less. You know, we become like everybody else.
1123
00:51:49.449 --> 00:51:52.139
And people have to come to a point where you
1124
00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:55.500
have to admit to yourself that you're not maximizing any
1125
00:51:55.539 --> 00:51:58.300
of the gifts that you have. You're not really living
1126
00:51:58.360 --> 00:52:01.039
a true purpose of any sort, which is why you
1127
00:52:01.059 --> 00:52:03.719
feel so empty inside. And at least if you can
1128
00:52:03.760 --> 00:52:06.440
control your discipline, at least if you can control the
1129
00:52:06.500 --> 00:52:09.059
things that are making your life difficult, you have a
1130
00:52:09.199 --> 00:52:12.530
fucking good shot at moving past where you are in life.
1131
00:52:13.429 --> 00:52:16.030
And you also stop talking about how great you want
1132
00:52:16.050 --> 00:52:18.449
to be and your action starts to tell the real
1133
00:52:18.489 --> 00:52:20.960
story of your life. And when your action starts to
1134
00:52:21.000 --> 00:52:23.820
tell the story, you feel so much better about yourself. Yeah,
1135
00:52:23.860 --> 00:52:27.820
it's weird, man. It's a different vibe. You could talk
1136
00:52:27.860 --> 00:52:29.920
a good game to yourself. I'm going to do this.
1137
00:52:30.260 --> 00:52:32.480
Watch me. I'm going to do this. Here's my vision.
1138
00:52:32.519 --> 00:52:33.199
I'm going to do this.
1139
00:52:33.539 --> 00:52:37.170
But most of the time, if there's not confidence or
1140
00:52:37.190 --> 00:52:39.190
you're not feeling good about where you are, it's because
1141
00:52:39.210 --> 00:52:42.340
you've been saying these things for years. But there's no
1142
00:52:42.599 --> 00:52:45.000
action and no discipline that's followed the belief. You don't
1143
00:52:45.019 --> 00:52:45.480
really believe it.
1144
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:47.719
You don't believe yourself just like you wouldn't believe another
1145
00:52:47.760 --> 00:52:49.429
person that came to you every day and said, hey,
1146
00:52:49.440 --> 00:52:51.280
I'm going to do this and they don't do it. Like,
1147
00:52:51.300 --> 00:52:54.840
would you believe, you know, an employee that came to
1148
00:52:54.880 --> 00:52:55.860
you every day and said they're going to get a
1149
00:52:55.860 --> 00:52:58.929
project done and never got it done? No, eventually you say, hey,
1150
00:52:59.469 --> 00:53:01.510
this fucking guy ain't going to get it done. And
1151
00:53:01.570 --> 00:53:04.230
so what happens is those words start to mean nothing.
1152
00:53:04.989 --> 00:53:07.969
And when you do that to yourself, that's very hard
1153
00:53:07.989 --> 00:53:09.889
to overcome because we're not aware we even do it
1154
00:53:09.909 --> 00:53:12.630
to ourselves. We're not even aware that we're selling ourselves
1155
00:53:12.690 --> 00:53:17.650
short by, you know, opting out of the idea that
1156
00:53:17.670 --> 00:53:20.250
we're even better than we are. You know what I'm saying?
1157
00:53:20.309 --> 00:53:20.530
Yeah.
1158
00:53:20.710 --> 00:53:24.329
And it causes all these things, depression, fucking, you know,
1159
00:53:24.690 --> 00:53:32.260
unfulfilled lives, divorce, you know, financial hardships. And like, dude,
1160
00:53:32.320 --> 00:53:34.139
this is something I've said since you and I were
1161
00:53:34.179 --> 00:53:36.920
doing the show together, I still believe is true. You
1162
00:53:36.960 --> 00:53:39.159
get to pick which hard you want to subscribe to.
1163
00:53:40.019 --> 00:53:42.460
But you don't get to opt out of the hard, motherfucker. Like,
1164
00:53:42.500 --> 00:53:43.820
it's going to be hard one way or the other.
1165
00:53:44.239 --> 00:53:45.980
You're either going to live a life of no discipline,
1166
00:53:46.000 --> 00:53:48.820
no control, at the mercy of all your outside elements,
1167
00:53:49.219 --> 00:53:50.840
or you're going to figure out the skills needed to
1168
00:53:50.880 --> 00:53:54.050
control those things. And those things are going to improve
1169
00:53:54.820 --> 00:53:57.630
the things like confidence. Like, you know, one of the
1170
00:53:57.670 --> 00:54:01.949
things that I notice about people that have really done
1171
00:54:01.989 --> 00:54:06.630
it versus people who haven't done it is that, you know,
1172
00:54:06.690 --> 00:54:11.070
people who haven't done it And I'm not saying they
1173
00:54:11.110 --> 00:54:14.389
haven't tried it. I'm saying haven't done it right or
1174
00:54:14.469 --> 00:54:16.750
haven't done it at all because it's basically the same thing,
1175
00:54:16.769 --> 00:54:21.349
in my opinion. Those people walk around looking for validation
1176
00:54:21.369 --> 00:54:24.389
from external sources, right? And people spend a lot of
1177
00:54:24.449 --> 00:54:31.199
time valuing the external inputs, especially with social media, right?
1178
00:54:31.460 --> 00:54:35.360
Like we're constantly looking for the positive comments or the
1179
00:54:35.420 --> 00:54:40.300
likes or the affirmations that we're doing good things. And
1180
00:54:40.800 --> 00:54:43.579
the confirmation that we're doing good things from other people
1181
00:54:43.599 --> 00:54:46.090
who probably aren't even qualified to give you that compliment.
1182
00:54:46.110 --> 00:54:49.050
Let's be real, okay? And so when we focus on
1183
00:54:49.070 --> 00:54:53.030
the external validation, we get this very shallow feeling of,
1184
00:54:53.309 --> 00:54:57.159
you know, it's almost like a dopamine hit. We're like, okay, yeah, cool.
1185
00:54:57.340 --> 00:54:58.619
And then we started looking for the next one, the
1186
00:54:58.659 --> 00:55:02.139
next one, the next one. But when you truly become confident,
1187
00:55:02.179 --> 00:55:05.199
you truly build those skills that we're talking about and
1188
00:55:05.239 --> 00:55:07.860
that belief in yourself. I want to be real, dude.
1189
00:55:07.940 --> 00:55:10.739
And like, this is something that's made my life tremendously better.
1190
00:55:10.760 --> 00:55:14.860
And a lot of people try to fake it. But
1191
00:55:15.090 --> 00:55:17.949
faking it doesn't count. And so when I say this,
1192
00:55:18.010 --> 00:55:21.449
I mean this literally. And I appreciate the people that
1193
00:55:21.489 --> 00:55:24.710
believe in me. I appreciate the people that fucking support
1194
00:55:24.809 --> 00:55:27.130
everything we do. but I'm going to tell you the truth.
1195
00:55:27.289 --> 00:55:30.110
I don't fucking need one single human on this planet
1196
00:55:30.530 --> 00:55:32.469
to fucking believe in me. I'm going to make it
1197
00:55:32.489 --> 00:55:36.420
happen regardless. And that is what happens whenever you become
1198
00:55:36.840 --> 00:55:40.760
truly confident. I don't give a fuck if so-and-so says
1199
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:44.150
they don't like me or they don't like the way
1200
00:55:44.190 --> 00:55:46.530
I present myself or the way I talk. I'm not
1201
00:55:46.590 --> 00:55:49.989
sitting at home overanalyzing all this shit. You know, oh,
1202
00:55:50.389 --> 00:55:52.969
did I offend so and so? Look, dude, that's your
1203
00:55:53.010 --> 00:55:55.780
responsibility if I offended you. It's not mine. I try
1204
00:55:55.820 --> 00:55:59.199
to tell the truth. I tell the truth. And if
1205
00:55:59.380 --> 00:56:02.519
that bothers people, then that's fucking on them. And that's
1206
00:56:02.579 --> 00:56:06.420
what this true confidence really creates. And by creating that,
1207
00:56:06.500 --> 00:56:12.349
you unlock your real potential to achieve and be impactful human.
1208
00:56:12.730 --> 00:56:15.170
Because when you are living that example and you are
1209
00:56:15.230 --> 00:56:17.869
telling the truth to people and they are seeing it,
1210
00:56:18.010 --> 00:56:21.239
witnessing it and understanding what's going on and then they
1211
00:56:21.340 --> 00:56:24.719
join and then they become better, you're now creating something
1212
00:56:24.739 --> 00:56:28.480
that really fucking matters. And that's every single person listening
1213
00:56:28.500 --> 00:56:31.900
to this. And that's why I like to these points
1214
00:56:31.920 --> 00:56:33.579
you're making. That's why we want you to do the
1215
00:56:33.639 --> 00:56:34.500
program the right way.
1216
00:56:34.519 --> 00:56:34.599
Yeah.
1217
00:56:35.099 --> 00:56:38.280
Dude, it's all or nothing. Let me be really fucking clear.
1218
00:56:39.030 --> 00:56:41.630
All you motherfuckers out there that try to change the program,
1219
00:56:42.210 --> 00:56:44.610
you are not qualified to change the program. You haven't
1220
00:56:44.670 --> 00:56:48.210
built a company worth billions of dollars. You haven't gotten
1221
00:56:48.250 --> 00:56:51.250
in fucking great shape. You don't know shit about fucking discipline.
1222
00:56:51.630 --> 00:56:54.429
Let's be fucking honest. You know nothing. And you're trying
1223
00:56:54.449 --> 00:56:57.539
to make it easier, which is honestly the whole fucking
1224
00:56:57.619 --> 00:57:01.610
reason that you're having the problems in life. Every time
1225
00:57:01.699 --> 00:57:03.619
shit gets hard, every time shit gets- Because you change
1226
00:57:03.659 --> 00:57:06.260
the rules. That's right. You try to change the situation
1227
00:57:06.280 --> 00:57:09.059
to fit your comfort when in reality you're supposed to
1228
00:57:09.119 --> 00:57:13.039
change yourself to fit that fucking circumstance or that situation.
1229
00:57:13.440 --> 00:57:15.460
And there is not a circumstance or a situation on
1230
00:57:15.480 --> 00:57:18.460
this fucking planet that can fuck with you when you
1231
00:57:18.559 --> 00:57:22.030
have that level of discipline and belief and confidence. You
1232
00:57:22.050 --> 00:57:24.510
might have hard days. You might have hard weeks. You
1233
00:57:24.530 --> 00:57:27.750
might have hard months. Somebody could, you could lose someone
1234
00:57:27.789 --> 00:57:29.949
or there's all kinds of things that can happen. But
1235
00:57:29.989 --> 00:57:33.130
when you are in that zone of understanding that you're
1236
00:57:33.170 --> 00:57:36.199
in control of how you react, the decisions you make,
1237
00:57:36.719 --> 00:57:39.119
whether or not you drink that beer or that wine
1238
00:57:39.159 --> 00:57:42.960
or have that, whatever your vice is, right? When you
1239
00:57:43.000 --> 00:57:44.780
understand and you're in control of that, you're able to
1240
00:57:44.860 --> 00:57:48.860
navigate these hardships effectively. And they don't throw you off
1241
00:57:48.920 --> 00:57:51.659
track like some people get, right? Like some people have
1242
00:57:51.679 --> 00:57:54.590
a hardship and, you know, they go down the toilet
1243
00:57:54.619 --> 00:57:57.590
for five years. I'm no different, bro. I was the
1244
00:57:57.670 --> 00:58:01.650
same way. I had a fucking hard year in 2012, personally.
1245
00:58:02.269 --> 00:58:05.130
And that lasted for three fucking years. And I got
1246
00:58:05.190 --> 00:58:07.449
fat as shit. All right? So I know what the
1247
00:58:07.510 --> 00:58:09.389
fuck I'm talking about when I'm talking about going down
1248
00:58:09.429 --> 00:58:11.409
the drain. I know how to come out of the motherfucker, too.
1249
00:58:11.969 --> 00:58:12.110
So.
1250
00:58:13.320 --> 00:58:17.360
When you try to change the program, understand what you're
1251
00:58:17.469 --> 00:58:20.389
doing by even thinking that you're going to change your program.
1252
00:58:20.409 --> 00:58:22.610
And I don't give a fuck how many certifications you
1253
00:58:22.670 --> 00:58:26.190
have or whatever you're following, whatever the fuck you think.
1254
00:58:27.469 --> 00:58:30.690
I'm telling you right now, you're fucking yourself, okay? Because
1255
00:58:30.730 --> 00:58:33.820
it is an all or nothing program. You either ran
1256
00:58:33.840 --> 00:58:37.769
the motherfucking Ironman or you fucking didn't. Period. That's it.
1257
00:58:38.190 --> 00:58:41.409
So you didn't, you didn't, you don't get to substitute
1258
00:58:42.710 --> 00:58:46.989
tricycle for two miles for the bike for however many,
1259
00:58:47.030 --> 00:58:49.050
like you don't get to do that shit. You don't
1260
00:58:49.090 --> 00:58:51.349
get to do it here either. And the program has
1261
00:58:51.369 --> 00:58:54.530
been specifically designed for certain fucking things. And if you
1262
00:58:54.650 --> 00:58:57.269
actually do it and you read the book before or
1263
00:58:57.429 --> 00:59:00.150
after the program, you're going to realize that all that
1264
00:59:00.190 --> 00:59:02.710
shit happens. All of it. Let me bring up a point.
1265
00:59:02.730 --> 00:59:04.849
Cause I know when we were talking about doing the show,
1266
00:59:06.469 --> 00:59:09.190
we promised that we would address this point. There's a
1267
00:59:09.210 --> 00:59:10.880
lot of variance the program, right?
1268
00:59:11.320 --> 00:59:14.000
Diet. Yeah. The workouts that you choose. Right.
1269
00:59:14.039 --> 00:59:15.500
So it's like, why do you need to go cut
1270
00:59:15.519 --> 00:59:18.800
more like 10 pages, read, not listen, right?
1271
00:59:18.840 --> 00:59:20.820
Like do the program.
1272
00:59:21.559 --> 00:59:23.500
But one of the things where I think people give
1273
00:59:23.619 --> 00:59:27.360
too much variance and we talked about this, people see
1274
00:59:27.440 --> 00:59:30.570
you walking, right? And one of my things that I
1275
00:59:30.630 --> 00:59:32.860
prided myself on and we talked openly about it and
1276
00:59:32.900 --> 00:59:34.760
I'm not, I'm not telling anybody they.
1277
00:59:34.659 --> 00:59:37.400
Didn't do the program. If you did it and you walked. Yeah.
1278
00:59:37.559 --> 00:59:40.420
But like I walked zero times. I did not do
1279
00:59:40.460 --> 00:59:44.309
a single walk because I felt that in my condition
1280
00:59:45.090 --> 00:59:46.889
I could do more, do more.
1281
00:59:46.909 --> 00:59:49.869
Correct. And so like I wanted to push myself to
1282
00:59:49.889 --> 00:59:50.150
do more.
1283
00:59:50.449 --> 00:59:52.369
If I would have just walked down the street, I mean,
1284
00:59:52.570 --> 00:59:56.320
I see people, They literally, they're walking down the beach.
1285
00:59:56.659 --> 00:59:59.340
They probably have their shoes off in a bathing suit saying,
1286
00:59:59.679 --> 01:00:02.030
I'm getting after it, live hard. And I'm like, what
1287
01:00:02.070 --> 01:00:04.710
are you doing? And then they say, and this is,
1288
01:00:05.010 --> 01:00:06.670
I think you're excited to clear this up too.
1289
01:00:06.909 --> 01:00:11.099
They said, well, Andy walks too. It's like I walk
1290
01:00:11.579 --> 01:00:13.900
and then run and then walk and then run. And
1291
01:00:13.940 --> 01:00:15.980
that's one of the things. Or when I walk, I
1292
01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:19.030
wear a vest. A hundred percent. But here's the thing.
1293
01:00:19.210 --> 01:00:21.230
And I said, and not that you need anybody to
1294
01:00:21.289 --> 01:00:23.090
come to your defense, but I think we want people
1295
01:00:23.130 --> 01:00:25.389
to understand, like, if you're going to do it, challenge yourself.
1296
01:00:25.429 --> 01:00:25.510
Yeah.
1297
01:00:26.280 --> 01:00:29.099
You're a big guy. Like you putting on a vest,
1298
01:00:29.139 --> 01:00:32.539
like there's no running for 45 straight minutes and your
1299
01:00:32.659 --> 01:00:35.440
weight in a 30, 40 pound vest. Like that's that.
1300
01:00:35.699 --> 01:00:39.710
So you walking up hills, sprinting, like Andy's not just
1301
01:00:39.889 --> 01:00:42.610
walking down the street casually. It's a fucking workout. You're
1302
01:00:42.630 --> 01:00:46.719
walking up hills. Like, so people, you have to understand,
1303
01:00:47.139 --> 01:00:50.739
like don't choose to, Oh, I walk because I see it.
1304
01:00:50.800 --> 01:00:51.760
But stop.
1305
01:00:52.300 --> 01:00:55.579
If you're having to rationalize, you're not doing the program.
1306
01:00:55.599 --> 01:00:55.900
That's it.
1307
01:00:56.199 --> 01:00:58.260
I guarantee for you. And that should be the rule.
1308
01:00:59.659 --> 01:01:02.699
Andy has never rationalized. Well, this one didn't count. No,
1309
01:01:03.030 --> 01:01:06.889
you put that vest on. With 265 pounds of twisted
1310
01:01:06.949 --> 01:01:08.369
steel and sex appeal. That's it.
1311
01:01:08.650 --> 01:01:13.090
And you're moving. Yeah. Like, you know that is a workout. Yeah.
1312
01:01:13.630 --> 01:01:17.780
If you are walking down the beach, filming yourself, and
1313
01:01:17.840 --> 01:01:20.940
you've questioned, because I know you're doing it 20 times
1314
01:01:20.980 --> 01:01:23.320
during that walk, does this really count?
1315
01:01:23.559 --> 01:01:26.360
Guess what? It doesn't count. That's it, dude. The rule is,
1316
01:01:26.400 --> 01:01:28.300
if you've got to ask, it doesn't count. Doesn't count.
1317
01:01:28.320 --> 01:01:28.559
That's it.
1318
01:01:28.559 --> 01:01:31.219
It's that simple. Is it okay if I eat this
1319
01:01:31.360 --> 01:01:32.940
cream sauce on my pasta?
1320
01:01:33.019 --> 01:01:35.699
No. No, you cannot have cream sauce on your pasta.
1321
01:01:36.280 --> 01:01:37.909
Why are you even asking that question?
1322
01:01:38.230 --> 01:01:38.429
Dude.
1323
01:01:38.630 --> 01:01:42.150
So, so I failed in the beginning by not clarifying
1324
01:01:42.190 --> 01:01:47.039
that for enough people. And also at the beginning, like, so,
1325
01:01:47.219 --> 01:01:48.719
so I want to clarify a couple of things around
1326
01:01:48.760 --> 01:01:52.989
that point. First off, If you're 400 pounds and you're
1327
01:01:53.010 --> 01:01:56.489
doing 75 hard and you do a walk. That's a workout. Yeah.
1328
01:01:56.610 --> 01:01:57.989
That is a workout.
1329
01:01:57.989 --> 01:01:58.050
100%.
1330
01:01:58.050 --> 01:02:02.829
What we're talking about here is an intense effort. Based
1331
01:02:02.889 --> 01:02:03.829
on who you are.
1332
01:02:03.849 --> 01:02:04.090
Right.
1333
01:02:04.429 --> 01:02:09.099
It's scalable. The whole program is designed for scalability. Like
1334
01:02:10.559 --> 01:02:12.460
one of the media channels did a fucking hit piece
1335
01:02:12.559 --> 01:02:15.070
on me. I'm pretty sure because of my political views,
1336
01:02:15.530 --> 01:02:19.210
but they decided to attack 75 hard and they were like, Oh,
1337
01:02:19.510 --> 01:02:23.949
it's fucking dangerous. It's blah, blah, motherfucker. It's scalable. Like
1338
01:02:24.409 --> 01:02:27.320
you can literally, if you're 600 pounds and can't get
1339
01:02:27.340 --> 01:02:30.940
out of bed, you can do fucking band work. Okay.
1340
01:02:31.059 --> 01:02:35.860
But it's about working towards what it is. That is
1341
01:02:36.039 --> 01:02:41.190
actually your potential. So I, uh, When I started the program,
1342
01:02:41.289 --> 01:02:44.000
I did all walking with a weight vest, all right?
1343
01:02:44.059 --> 01:02:46.480
And what I realized was I started fucking with my heels,
1344
01:02:47.019 --> 01:02:50.119
all right? So now my heels are totally fucked. So
1345
01:02:51.380 --> 01:02:53.619
now what I do is instead of wearing the vest,
1346
01:02:53.639 --> 01:02:55.440
I've done this for the last year and a half,
1347
01:02:56.000 --> 01:02:58.929
is I do little intervals. I go out, I run
1348
01:02:58.989 --> 01:03:01.630
for a couple minutes, then I stop, then I walk
1349
01:03:01.650 --> 01:03:04.789
for a couple minutes, then I run. And when I take,
1350
01:03:05.130 --> 01:03:07.460
when I do a story, I never do it when
1351
01:03:07.480 --> 01:03:09.840
I'm running because guess what, motherfucker? I can't talk when
1352
01:03:09.860 --> 01:03:12.980
I'm running. So you don't ever see it. So, you know,
1353
01:03:13.019 --> 01:03:15.659
that's my bad. And I take responsibility for people maybe
1354
01:03:15.699 --> 01:03:20.510
misunderstanding that. But let's clarify it now. You should be
1355
01:03:20.570 --> 01:03:25.309
challenging yourself. And it's it's it. None of you out
1356
01:03:25.349 --> 01:03:28.449
there should be harassing other people like I see this shit, too,
1357
01:03:28.469 --> 01:03:31.570
which annoys the fuck out of me. Everybody thinks they're
1358
01:03:31.590 --> 01:03:34.889
the 75 hard police. And most of the motherfuckers saying
1359
01:03:34.909 --> 01:03:37.530
the shit didn't even do it because the true people
1360
01:03:37.570 --> 01:03:40.349
that did it, they don't actually give a fuck if
1361
01:03:40.409 --> 01:03:42.610
someone else does it right or not, because they did
1362
01:03:42.650 --> 01:03:45.510
it right. I'm rooting for people too, but like, I
1363
01:03:45.550 --> 01:03:47.610
don't really care. Like if you want to fuck yourself,
1364
01:03:48.389 --> 01:03:50.059
you've been doing it your whole life. So keep going.
1365
01:03:50.340 --> 01:03:52.019
You know what I'm saying? That's how I feel about it.
1366
01:03:52.440 --> 01:03:54.719
I used to get real mad and be like, like, dude,
1367
01:03:54.739 --> 01:03:57.320
Waylon hit me up. And he's like, Bro, I'm done
1368
01:03:57.400 --> 01:04:00.039
talking about this shit. Every fucking time I say a
1369
01:04:00.099 --> 01:04:03.559
story about 75 hard, I got to fucking explain 25
1370
01:04:03.559 --> 01:04:05.900
questions about what I could do this or that or this.
1371
01:04:06.219 --> 01:04:08.599
I say, Sean, just fucking tell them if they got
1372
01:04:08.619 --> 01:04:11.320
to ask, the answer is fucking no. Because that's the truth.
1373
01:04:12.019 --> 01:04:14.769
If you've got to question it, if you're wondering if
1374
01:04:14.849 --> 01:04:17.489
it counted, guess what? It didn't fucking count. 100%. So,
1375
01:04:18.989 --> 01:04:22.510
you know, dude, people take shit so literally. Like, I
1376
01:04:22.550 --> 01:04:27.070
don't want you to, like... you know, like, dude, here's
1377
01:04:27.110 --> 01:04:30.590
what happens, right? Because this happens too. And this is rare.
1378
01:04:30.610 --> 01:04:32.710
This is very rare with people, but it does happen.
1379
01:04:33.130 --> 01:04:35.550
I have some people who are so diligent and so
1380
01:04:35.630 --> 01:04:39.340
strict on the program that they get done. They're like, fuck,
1381
01:04:39.380 --> 01:04:41.059
I could have gave more. I could have gave more.
1382
01:04:41.460 --> 01:04:44.579
We can always give more. That's just a champion mindset
1383
01:04:44.599 --> 01:04:48.239
that you cultivated. So it's natural to truly... This is
1384
01:04:48.300 --> 01:04:50.280
why it's such... You have to be so aware to
1385
01:04:50.320 --> 01:04:52.760
really get what you need out of this program because
1386
01:04:53.139 --> 01:04:58.610
it's such a natural... thought for a champion mindset to
1387
01:04:58.690 --> 01:05:00.610
look back and analyze and say, no, I could have
1388
01:05:00.710 --> 01:05:02.070
fucking done this. I could have done that. I could
1389
01:05:02.090 --> 01:05:04.800
have done this. And so I've seen people say, fuck,
1390
01:05:04.860 --> 01:05:08.280
I fucking failed when actually they did it exactly right.
1391
01:05:08.400 --> 01:05:11.639
They're just using their champion brain the wrong way. Well,
1392
01:05:11.659 --> 01:05:14.400
you look for another. Yeah. So, so be conscious of
1393
01:05:14.440 --> 01:05:17.250
that too, but that's the rarity, dude. Like I'm talking,
1394
01:05:17.289 --> 01:05:18.630
those are the people that you could look at the
1395
01:05:18.670 --> 01:05:20.590
before and after, and they don't even look like the
1396
01:05:20.650 --> 01:05:23.610
same motherfucker. You know what I'm saying? A hundred percent.
1397
01:05:23.769 --> 01:05:26.590
So they're, you know, but dude, that's the exception. You know,
1398
01:05:26.630 --> 01:05:30.090
most of the people are the first group where they're like, dude,
1399
01:05:30.130 --> 01:05:32.469
and what that is, bro, is that's just conditioning of
1400
01:05:32.510 --> 01:05:35.260
their own voice their whole life, right? Their whole life,
1401
01:05:35.679 --> 01:05:40.039
we're conditioned to do things easier, quicker, more efficient. What
1402
01:05:40.059 --> 01:05:44.420
do we hear everywhere in society? Easier, more convenient. How
1403
01:05:44.440 --> 01:05:45.920
do I cut the corner? How do I do it faster?
1404
01:05:45.940 --> 01:05:46.079
Cheap.
1405
01:05:47.369 --> 01:05:50.789
You know, that's what this is all. Our whole society
1406
01:05:50.849 --> 01:05:53.630
is built around these ideas. And a lot of times
1407
01:05:53.650 --> 01:05:56.929
that makes sense, right? It's good business strategy to make
1408
01:05:56.969 --> 01:06:01.429
your life easier for your customers. But when it comes
1409
01:06:01.469 --> 01:06:04.550
to personal development and it comes to becoming a motherfucking
1410
01:06:04.659 --> 01:06:06.500
weapon that you need to become to get where you
1411
01:06:06.539 --> 01:06:09.500
want to go, you have to put yourself through this
1412
01:06:09.539 --> 01:06:12.260
hard shit because if you don't, the world fucking will.
1413
01:06:12.420 --> 01:06:14.639
Your mind is your most powerful weapon. Dude.
1414
01:06:16.130 --> 01:06:18.130
There's no doubt about it. Your mind is your most
1415
01:06:18.170 --> 01:06:20.289
powerful weapon. And the only way that you're going to
1416
01:06:20.329 --> 01:06:23.190
be able to learn to grow your mind, take control
1417
01:06:23.210 --> 01:06:24.949
of your mind, figure out how tough you are, is
1418
01:06:24.989 --> 01:06:27.929
to silence your self-talk with the action that you're willing
1419
01:06:27.949 --> 01:06:31.260
to take consistently. And my definition of consistent is not
1420
01:06:31.280 --> 01:06:33.940
a couple of days here, a couple of days there. Andy,
1421
01:06:33.960 --> 01:06:36.400
I did this three days in a row. It's consistency
1422
01:06:36.619 --> 01:06:37.280
every day.
1423
01:06:37.300 --> 01:06:40.900
It's every day doing what you say you're going to do.
1424
01:06:41.219 --> 01:06:45.389
I wonder how many people out there in the world... Like,
1425
01:06:45.610 --> 01:06:47.510
not just, I'm not talking about the listeners because we
1426
01:06:47.530 --> 01:06:50.429
have some, you know, dude, we've got a lot of
1427
01:06:50.449 --> 01:06:53.380
people that listen to the show that are fucking winning big,
1428
01:06:54.530 --> 01:06:59.579
which doesn't surprise me. But we have people out there
1429
01:06:59.739 --> 01:07:03.699
who aren't and who are doubtful and who think they
1430
01:07:03.780 --> 01:07:06.460
really don't have what it takes. They really believe that,
1431
01:07:07.019 --> 01:07:10.519
you know? And if that's you, if you're listening to this,
1432
01:07:11.000 --> 01:07:13.250
you're the person that I want to do this program
1433
01:07:13.269 --> 01:07:15.840
the right way. because it will change you the most.
1434
01:07:16.159 --> 01:07:18.579
It will be, and by the way, guys, you don't
1435
01:07:18.599 --> 01:07:22.019
have to buy shit. Go listen to the podcast. Which
1436
01:07:22.059 --> 01:07:26.360
episode is it, Madat? It's 14, baby. Go listen to 14,
1437
01:07:26.360 --> 01:07:29.539
all right, and then episode 80, and it will explain
1438
01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:33.000
the concept of the 75 hard and then also the
1439
01:07:33.079 --> 01:07:36.860
live hard program. And you guys right now, who you're
1440
01:07:36.900 --> 01:07:40.389
maybe in the beginning or you're maybe, you know, uh,
1441
01:07:40.570 --> 01:07:42.369
real far away from where you want to be. And
1442
01:07:42.409 --> 01:07:44.849
you've been told your whole life, you're mediocre. You're, you're,
1443
01:07:45.090 --> 01:07:48.570
you're a regular person. You know, uh, you're not special.
1444
01:07:48.889 --> 01:07:50.590
What makes you think like, dude, I heard all that
1445
01:07:50.670 --> 01:07:53.869
fucking shit, all of it. And, and all those motherfuckers,
1446
01:07:53.989 --> 01:07:55.880
every single one that told me any of that shit,
1447
01:07:55.889 --> 01:07:58.239
you know what they're doing today? The same shit they
1448
01:07:58.260 --> 01:08:02.280
were doing then the same shit. And so as someone,
1449
01:08:02.440 --> 01:08:06.340
and as another man who have, you know, maybe gotten
1450
01:08:06.420 --> 01:08:09.199
a little bit further down the road in age and experience,
1451
01:08:09.909 --> 01:08:12.909
And looking back and saying, fuck, dude, I can tell
1452
01:08:12.929 --> 01:08:14.199
you this, dude. I wish I would have figured this
1453
01:08:14.260 --> 01:08:18.640
out at fucking 20. Holy fuck. Without question. Holy fuck.
1454
01:08:19.399 --> 01:08:24.000
Without question. I don't know, man. You know, do it
1455
01:08:24.039 --> 01:08:26.000
or don't do it. But there's nothing you got to pay.
1456
01:08:26.300 --> 01:08:28.579
You know, it's just blood, sweat and tears, man. And
1457
01:08:28.760 --> 01:08:31.850
here's what I'd say. Like I said earlier.
1458
01:08:32.890 --> 01:08:35.029
If you don't want to start 75 hard now, challenge
1459
01:08:35.050 --> 01:08:37.819
yourself in one area. Challenge yourself in two areas, three areas.
1460
01:08:37.859 --> 01:08:39.640
Do something for 30 days. That's what I was going
1461
01:08:39.659 --> 01:08:41.520
to say, bro. I bet you you get hungry for more.
1462
01:08:41.539 --> 01:08:42.189
That's what I was going to say.
1463
01:08:42.199 --> 01:08:43.920
If you challenge yourself in three areas, you'll be like,
1464
01:08:44.539 --> 01:08:46.560
maybe I can do this program. And guess what?
1465
01:08:46.619 --> 01:08:47.079
You can't.
1466
01:08:47.100 --> 01:08:49.640
Because what comes out of your mouth goes into your ears.
1467
01:08:49.659 --> 01:08:51.649
That's what you believe, and that's what determines the action
1468
01:08:51.659 --> 01:08:54.130
that you take. So if somebody's been feeding it to
1469
01:08:54.170 --> 01:08:56.569
you or you've been feeding it to yourself, that's why
1470
01:08:56.590 --> 01:08:59.970
you're not taking the action. Believe in yourself. Flip the script.
1471
01:09:00.100 --> 01:09:02.420
on what you're telling yourself, start to say, I can
1472
01:09:02.479 --> 01:09:05.079
do this. So if you're not in position right now,
1473
01:09:05.140 --> 01:09:07.050
or if your doctor says you shouldn't be doing it,
1474
01:09:07.380 --> 01:09:09.500
and it is clear in the book, like if you
1475
01:09:09.699 --> 01:09:11.840
feel once again, if you have to ask the question,
1476
01:09:11.859 --> 01:09:14.539
do you think my doctor would approve doing this? Go
1477
01:09:14.579 --> 01:09:17.869
see your doctor, right? Like, Andy wants everybody to do
1478
01:09:17.909 --> 01:09:20.750
this the right way with good health, taking control of
1479
01:09:20.789 --> 01:09:24.289
their life. Well, it's a permanent solution. It's not a trend.
1480
01:09:24.569 --> 01:09:24.930
Exactly.
1481
01:09:24.949 --> 01:09:27.729
That's the thing. And this will change you forever. There's
1482
01:09:27.770 --> 01:09:30.619
no going back. And I can't forget to say this.
1483
01:09:31.340 --> 01:09:33.800
After I finished 75 Hard, I created what I call
1484
01:09:33.859 --> 01:09:36.500
a never do it again list. It's a list of
1485
01:09:36.500 --> 01:09:41.760
14 things that I read every single day ever since
1486
01:09:41.819 --> 01:09:44.739
I finished. So my 75th day, remember, create the environment
1487
01:09:44.880 --> 01:09:48.250
I started. So that my 75th day was my mother's birthday.
1488
01:09:48.930 --> 01:09:51.670
My mother who passed away 11 days before my eighth birthday.
1489
01:09:51.710 --> 01:09:54.069
So many of you know the story from past episodes
1490
01:09:54.109 --> 01:09:57.189
we've done together. She's my greatest inspiration. So I made
1491
01:09:57.270 --> 01:09:59.720
sure my last day was my mother's birthday. There were
1492
01:09:59.800 --> 01:10:02.560
no cutting corners. I was going to honor my mother
1493
01:10:03.020 --> 01:10:06.140
with finishing this program. And so when I finished, I said, okay,
1494
01:10:06.180 --> 01:10:08.100
what are the things I'm never going to do again?
1495
01:10:08.420 --> 01:10:09.899
And most people are like, I'm going to do this.
1496
01:10:09.920 --> 01:10:11.899
I'm going to do that. Create a never do.
1497
01:10:11.819 --> 01:10:13.369
It again list. That's powerful.
1498
01:10:13.390 --> 01:10:15.409
What's the stuff on that list? Oh, there's stuff about
1499
01:10:15.470 --> 01:10:17.579
I'm not going to let anybody take my power. I'm
1500
01:10:17.619 --> 01:10:19.619
not going to let anybody take my voice. I'm not
1501
01:10:19.640 --> 01:10:21.899
going to get above this weight. I mean, there's all
1502
01:10:22.079 --> 01:10:23.479
I will eat excessively.
1503
01:10:23.520 --> 01:10:23.720
Yeah.
1504
01:10:23.819 --> 01:10:26.739
So it's not some serious boundaries for you. Yes.
1505
01:10:26.819 --> 01:10:29.109
And so it's not that I'll never eat a pizza again.
1506
01:10:29.510 --> 01:10:31.729
It's I don't need to eat a whole pizza.
1507
01:10:31.829 --> 01:10:32.029
Yeah.
1508
01:10:32.149 --> 01:10:34.250
But if I'm with the kids and it's a cheat
1509
01:10:34.310 --> 01:10:38.359
meal and I'm off the program. I'll eat a half
1510
01:10:38.399 --> 01:10:40.319
a pizza, but I don't need to eat a full
1511
01:10:40.390 --> 01:10:42.970
pizza or I don't need 18 scoops of ice cream.
1512
01:10:43.090 --> 01:10:45.149
I can have two scoops of ice cream. Right.
1513
01:10:45.170 --> 01:10:48.449
So there's things that parameters, I will not do this again.
1514
01:10:48.470 --> 01:10:50.850
And it has been such a powerful thing. And I
1515
01:10:50.909 --> 01:10:53.390
read them every morning, but that's what you have to
1516
01:10:53.430 --> 01:10:56.140
do is you have to condition yourself to continue to
1517
01:10:56.260 --> 01:10:58.439
show up. Otherwise you go back to the old behavior.
1518
01:10:58.520 --> 01:10:58.760
Yeah.
1519
01:10:59.060 --> 01:10:59.239
Yeah.
1520
01:10:59.640 --> 01:11:01.500
And, and, and the people who do go back to
1521
01:11:01.520 --> 01:11:03.340
the old behavior, those are the same people who are
1522
01:11:03.720 --> 01:11:07.350
doing it because everybody else is doing it. Or it's popular. Look, motherfuckers,
1523
01:11:07.359 --> 01:11:09.090
this is going to stay popular. You know why? Because
1524
01:11:09.130 --> 01:11:11.590
it's a real solution. It's not a trend. It's not
1525
01:11:11.609 --> 01:11:14.770
a fucking TikTok. It's not a fucking hashtag. This is
1526
01:11:14.810 --> 01:11:18.630
a life-changing fucking program. Dude, talk about some of the
1527
01:11:18.750 --> 01:11:22.750
internal things that you discovered in terms of like, you know,
1528
01:11:22.770 --> 01:11:26.340
because like, dude, for me, and it sounds stupid, like
1529
01:11:26.399 --> 01:11:29.279
it sounds so stupid now looking back, but dude, I
1530
01:11:29.300 --> 01:11:32.539
could tell you this is no bullshit. I couldn't go
1531
01:11:32.600 --> 01:11:35.500
a fucking week without cheating on my diet. Like, dude,
1532
01:11:35.869 --> 01:11:38.489
I couldn't do it. I could not go more than
1533
01:11:38.560 --> 01:11:40.760
seven days without cheating on my diet. It was, I
1534
01:11:40.800 --> 01:11:45.260
had never fucking done it before I started 75. Like ever.
1535
01:11:45.579 --> 01:11:51.539
Now I'm going, literally, this has been, fuck, what is it,
1536
01:11:51.560 --> 01:11:54.760
two and a half years almost now? Since we started
1537
01:11:54.800 --> 01:11:58.560
this shit? You know, it's been a year since, or
1538
01:11:58.579 --> 01:12:01.140
a year and a half since lockdown started. Dude, I've
1539
01:12:01.180 --> 01:12:05.300
had fucking six days to eat regular, like, what I
1540
01:12:05.359 --> 01:12:07.199
used to call regular food. You know what I'm saying?
1541
01:12:07.680 --> 01:12:11.390
It's just, dude, it changes you. And, you know, yeah,
1542
01:12:11.430 --> 01:12:13.149
I'm not going out and getting fucked up with my
1543
01:12:13.189 --> 01:12:17.750
boys anymore. But you know what? I'm having a better life, dude.
1544
01:12:17.789 --> 01:12:19.930
I've been to baseball games. I've been to sporting events.
1545
01:12:19.970 --> 01:12:22.149
I've been to all these things. And you tell yourself
1546
01:12:22.189 --> 01:12:24.189
you have to do it. You don't have to do that. Yeah, dude,
1547
01:12:24.210 --> 01:12:26.609
I went out last night and saw Tommy Vext in concert.
1548
01:12:26.810 --> 01:12:28.970
And I didn't fucking drink. I was out to, like,
1549
01:12:29.350 --> 01:12:31.590
for me, guys, you know, I'm getting up there in
1550
01:12:31.609 --> 01:12:35.970
the age. You know, I had a, I was home
1551
01:12:36.010 --> 01:12:39.289
by midnight, man. It was a wild night. But, you know, dude,
1552
01:12:39.369 --> 01:12:42.029
I didn't fucking drink. I just went, hung out, had
1553
01:12:42.050 --> 01:12:42.729
a good conversation.
1554
01:12:42.750 --> 01:12:45.250
Like, people are afraid to live without that crutch of
1555
01:12:45.470 --> 01:12:50.300
alcohol in social situations. And getting back to what the
1556
01:12:50.340 --> 01:12:55.600
biggest objection is, people will try to hide their objections as, like,
1557
01:12:55.640 --> 01:12:57.020
they don't have the time or they don't have this.
1558
01:12:57.039 --> 01:12:58.640
But what it really comes down to, dude, is it's
1559
01:12:58.699 --> 01:13:01.710
missing those social things. And the truth is you actually
1560
01:13:01.729 --> 01:13:03.529
get a lot more out of the social interactions you
1561
01:13:03.569 --> 01:13:07.010
do have Because you're going there, you're having meaningful conversations,
1562
01:13:07.029 --> 01:13:10.550
you're present, you're not intoxicated. And like what I do, bro,
1563
01:13:10.590 --> 01:13:13.130
like I was never a coffee drinker before this. You
1564
01:13:13.149 --> 01:13:14.810
know how coffee is kind of an acquired taste, sort
1565
01:13:14.829 --> 01:13:18.689
of like beer, right? So I started drinking decaf coffee, dude.
1566
01:13:19.029 --> 01:13:20.649
So like when I go out with my friends to drink,
1567
01:13:20.710 --> 01:13:24.270
I just order decaf coffees. And like, so I have
1568
01:13:24.310 --> 01:13:27.180
like a little something to drink on. And, bro, I'm
1569
01:13:27.220 --> 01:13:29.359
having the same fucking fun I had before without all
1570
01:13:29.380 --> 01:13:32.119
the bullshit. You know, out all the, you know, because let's.
1571
01:13:32.000 --> 01:13:32.600
Be real, dude.
1572
01:13:33.050 --> 01:13:36.270
Getting party drinking doesn't lead to a lot of good stuff.
1573
01:13:36.550 --> 01:13:38.350
You know what I'm saying? I mean, once in a while,
1574
01:13:38.909 --> 01:13:41.489
it's like hitting a baseball. Three out of ten times
1575
01:13:41.510 --> 01:13:42.930
you're going to have fun, but seven out of ten
1576
01:13:42.970 --> 01:13:45.649
times you're going to fuck up. You know what I'm saying? Like,
1577
01:13:45.800 --> 01:13:47.340
it's just going to be some drama. You're going to
1578
01:13:47.380 --> 01:13:49.979
fight with your girlfriend or your fucking boyfriend or you're
1579
01:13:50.000 --> 01:13:52.739
going to do something stupid. Yeah, dude. It's just not
1580
01:13:52.819 --> 01:13:57.609
worth it. Like, I can't. I drank for the first time, uh,
1581
01:13:59.060 --> 01:14:02.899
since October, I drank October 15th of 2020. And I
1582
01:14:02.939 --> 01:14:05.659
drank for the first time again on my birthday, uh,
1583
01:14:05.720 --> 01:14:08.239
just like a week ago. And bro, I don't know
1584
01:14:08.260 --> 01:14:10.539
that I'll ever drink again. Cause I drank that day
1585
01:14:10.760 --> 01:14:12.850
and it was fucking fun. But like, dude, it really
1586
01:14:13.010 --> 01:14:15.149
fucked with my mentality. The next couple of days where
1587
01:14:15.170 --> 01:14:17.670
I was down, I was fucking pissed off. I was
1588
01:14:17.729 --> 01:14:20.630
mean to people and dude, I don't, I don't need it. Like,
1589
01:14:20.670 --> 01:14:23.130
I just don't need it. Like I don't need it
1590
01:14:23.229 --> 01:14:25.760
for any reason. And, uh, I never thought I would
1591
01:14:25.800 --> 01:14:28.340
be one of the people that like, you know, doesn't
1592
01:14:28.380 --> 01:14:31.600
drink at all, but I, I don't know, man. It
1593
01:14:31.640 --> 01:14:33.840
might happen for me because like, I'm like, you talk
1594
01:14:33.859 --> 01:14:36.000
about never do it again. Like I, I have to like,
1595
01:14:36.060 --> 01:14:38.460
really like, why the fuck am I doing this to myself?
1596
01:14:38.899 --> 01:14:41.670
You know what I mean? And you know, I know
1597
01:14:41.689 --> 01:14:43.970
that sounds like weird because like, dude, before that I
1598
01:14:43.989 --> 01:14:48.569
was a heavy drinker, dude. I drink, you know, whenever
1599
01:14:48.590 --> 01:14:50.970
the fuck I wanted, which usually was like four nights
1600
01:14:51.010 --> 01:14:56.210
a week. And my life's just so much, better, like
1601
01:14:56.229 --> 01:14:57.909
in every way without it. You know what I mean?
1602
01:14:59.260 --> 01:15:04.779
I don't know, man. I, I, uh, I'm super thankful
1603
01:15:04.819 --> 01:15:06.579
for it. I know, I know it's my program, but
1604
01:15:07.460 --> 01:15:09.710
I'm just super thankful. Like I said, in the, uh,
1605
01:15:09.859 --> 01:15:13.460
in the previous podcast, you know, that that fucking soft
1606
01:15:13.479 --> 01:15:16.060
motherfucker had enough fortitude to make it through that first
1607
01:15:16.119 --> 01:15:19.760
fucking trip with 75 hard, man, because it was, it
1608
01:15:19.779 --> 01:15:22.699
was life-changing for real. But you know, you, you had
1609
01:15:22.729 --> 01:15:25.869
to go through, you said 12 to 15. in order
1610
01:15:25.949 --> 01:15:27.329
to get to this point.
1611
01:15:28.130 --> 01:15:30.850
And so for everybody listening, as passionate as we've been,
1612
01:15:30.909 --> 01:15:36.619
and encouraging, empowering, inspiring you to choose different behavior, if
1613
01:15:36.680 --> 01:15:39.140
you're in where Andy was, and I've had periods of
1614
01:15:39.180 --> 01:15:42.380
time like that. Professionally, 2010 was, I mean, it's just awful.
1615
01:15:43.260 --> 01:15:45.550
And you go back, I had to go through that
1616
01:15:45.600 --> 01:15:47.470
period of time to be who I am today. I
1617
01:15:47.510 --> 01:15:49.050
had to go through pain with my dad to be
1618
01:15:49.069 --> 01:15:50.449
who I am today. You had to go through that
1619
01:15:50.510 --> 01:15:53.369
three-year period of time. So anybody listening, if you're going
1620
01:15:53.510 --> 01:15:56.529
through it, I hope what you're hearing is, man, Andy
1621
01:15:56.569 --> 01:15:59.010
was able to do this to get through to find
1622
01:15:59.069 --> 01:16:01.850
his strongest self. Like I've had to go through so
1623
01:16:01.909 --> 01:16:05.510
much pain in my life. And sometimes you seek things
1624
01:16:05.569 --> 01:16:08.189
like this and you finally accept them because you realize
1625
01:16:08.210 --> 01:16:09.529
like this is going to make me realize like how
1626
01:16:09.600 --> 01:16:12.880
strong I can be. You are so strong. Everybody listening
1627
01:16:12.920 --> 01:16:15.180
who's been doubting, you've been listening to the self-taught. You
1628
01:16:15.239 --> 01:16:18.380
are so damn strong. Everything you need is already in you.
1629
01:16:18.899 --> 01:16:20.699
Just choose to go take it one day at a time.
1630
01:16:21.039 --> 01:16:24.939
Just choose to win one day at a time. download
1631
01:16:24.979 --> 01:16:27.779
the app, get started, get those shots of dopamine. It
1632
01:16:27.800 --> 01:16:29.939
feels so good. Every time you hit that little circle,
1633
01:16:29.979 --> 01:16:32.100
like I don't know how somebody could go to bed. Like,
1634
01:16:32.319 --> 01:16:34.000
like you just, it's like, I got to hit it.
1635
01:16:34.039 --> 01:16:35.140
I got to hit it. Then the next day you
1636
01:16:35.180 --> 01:16:37.189
will wake up. I want to get the, and just
1637
01:16:37.390 --> 01:16:38.970
enjoy the game. Yeah.
1638
01:16:39.069 --> 01:16:41.689
Enjoy the program. And what I actually did, which helped
1639
01:16:41.729 --> 01:16:44.149
me is I had a handwritten journal. So I've got
1640
01:16:44.229 --> 01:16:46.810
three journals that are full for my year experience. So
1641
01:16:47.109 --> 01:16:49.369
whether it was journaling, what my good deeds were, you know,
1642
01:16:49.390 --> 01:16:52.079
the random acts of kindness, whether it was You know,
1643
01:16:52.460 --> 01:16:57.050
the conversations I had with strangers, I journaled everything. I
1644
01:16:57.090 --> 01:16:59.930
journaled breakthroughs. I journaled mental things. And so not only
1645
01:16:59.949 --> 01:17:02.050
did I did the app, I did that because it
1646
01:17:02.090 --> 01:17:04.329
got me to slow down and go, okay, what am
1647
01:17:04.350 --> 01:17:07.689
I learning from this? And that's the beauty of this.
1648
01:17:07.789 --> 01:17:10.359
Once again, now we haven't talked about physical in forever
1649
01:17:10.380 --> 01:17:13.479
because it isn't about the physical. It's about you mentally
1650
01:17:13.539 --> 01:17:16.279
breaking through that pain that you're experiencing right now and
1651
01:17:16.359 --> 01:17:18.260
recognizing like you are so damn strong.
1652
01:17:18.420 --> 01:17:24.130
It's interesting too, bro. that everybody thinks it's physical. Like, dude, guys,
1653
01:17:24.289 --> 01:17:27.949
it's not a physical transformation. It's just not. Are you
1654
01:17:28.010 --> 01:17:31.939
going to transform? Absolutely. But what it is is developing
1655
01:17:31.979 --> 01:17:36.979
the skillset and the tools in your brain that actually
1656
01:17:37.359 --> 01:17:44.989
result in a transformation. And that was the big aha moment.
1657
01:17:45.109 --> 01:17:48.250
Whenever I figured out that it wasn't, hey, I'm trying
1658
01:17:48.350 --> 01:17:51.659
to do this, It was, I looked at this fucking
1659
01:17:52.060 --> 01:17:55.380
pizza or this beer and I said, that fucking shit
1660
01:17:55.420 --> 01:17:58.500
don't have any power over me. Fuck that. I'm tougher
1661
01:17:58.520 --> 01:18:00.520
than that. And like, I kind of got my ego
1662
01:18:00.579 --> 01:18:02.920
involved in it. You know what I'm saying? And, and dude,
1663
01:18:03.119 --> 01:18:08.310
that's that switch. It's, it's helped a lot of people
1664
01:18:08.390 --> 01:18:11.770
because they have always looked at it as, you know,
1665
01:18:12.170 --> 01:18:14.829
cause dude, let's be real, man, food and alcohol, like,
1666
01:18:15.890 --> 01:18:19.140
It's very addicting, both things. And, you know, we have
1667
01:18:19.180 --> 01:18:25.000
this situation in life where, you know, we don't really
1668
01:18:25.060 --> 01:18:32.569
understand the perspective of control when it comes to these
1669
01:18:32.609 --> 01:18:35.689
substances because we have to have at least the food
1670
01:18:36.109 --> 01:18:40.350
to actually survive. So it's the equivalent of like saying, hey, man,
1671
01:18:40.390 --> 01:18:43.130
you really should quit heroin, but you've got to do
1672
01:18:43.149 --> 01:18:45.880
it three times a day or you're going to fucking die. right?
1673
01:18:46.260 --> 01:18:48.750
That's where most people struggle with the fucking food is.
1674
01:18:49.069 --> 01:18:52.520
And that's for me, like, if the more I eat,
1675
01:18:52.579 --> 01:18:56.100
the more I eat. And so, you know, when we
1676
01:18:56.180 --> 01:18:59.619
think about food and we think about how important it
1677
01:18:59.680 --> 01:19:03.779
is to have the right food and we start thinking about, well,
1678
01:19:04.039 --> 01:19:07.319
this is a temptation and fuck that. It ain't shit.
1679
01:19:07.359 --> 01:19:11.460
I'm tougher than that. It's different. It's a different game
1680
01:19:11.680 --> 01:19:16.819
than looking at the food and being tempted. Like, fuck,
1681
01:19:16.840 --> 01:19:19.680
you can't fucking tempt me. Fucking piece of pizza. Fuck you.
1682
01:19:20.140 --> 01:19:22.000
You know what I'm saying? Like, that's how I look
1683
01:19:22.100 --> 01:19:24.220
at it. And those those conversations when you get on
1684
01:19:24.260 --> 01:19:25.439
the other side of them. Yeah.
1685
01:19:25.619 --> 01:19:29.060
And you win one after another, after another, after another.
1686
01:19:29.720 --> 01:19:32.270
You actually understand the control that you do have over
1687
01:19:32.310 --> 01:19:34.789
your mind. And that's what gets you to have it.
1688
01:19:35.520 --> 01:19:38.699
That's where the transformation is is born. And that's where
1689
01:19:38.720 --> 01:19:40.609
you see it show up in other areas of your life.
1690
01:19:40.670 --> 01:19:44.289
Cause you realize like, okay, yeah, this fish when I'm
1691
01:19:44.350 --> 01:19:45.880
at the restaurant, cause people say I'm at the restaurant.
1692
01:19:45.899 --> 01:19:47.359
So you just, well, you ordered what I ordered, but
1693
01:19:47.380 --> 01:19:49.359
I ordered fish. Well, if the fish says it has
1694
01:19:49.479 --> 01:19:52.960
butter sauce, Don't order the butter sauce. And I promise you,
1695
01:19:53.000 --> 01:19:55.420
when you walk out of the restaurant, you'll go, I
1696
01:19:55.479 --> 01:19:59.100
feel great because I actually honored the program.
1697
01:19:59.689 --> 01:20:01.029
I was honest with myself.
1698
01:20:01.170 --> 01:20:03.430
I could eat. What'd you eat for dinner? Fish and vegetables.
1699
01:20:03.510 --> 01:20:03.710
Yeah.
1700
01:20:04.189 --> 01:20:06.409
Never tell anybody about the butter sauce. But the reality
1701
01:20:06.449 --> 01:20:09.390
is it's those little decisions where you say, I actually
1702
01:20:09.470 --> 01:20:10.109
did it. Yeah.
1703
01:20:10.649 --> 01:20:12.479
And that's what I ordered it without the butter sauce.
1704
01:20:12.760 --> 01:20:15.760
And that's where the concept that we talk about zero
1705
01:20:15.819 --> 01:20:18.770
compromise comes from. OK, it's all or fucking nothing, man.
1706
01:20:19.210 --> 01:20:22.789
Like those little compromises that you make, that's the slippery
1707
01:20:22.829 --> 01:20:25.470
slope that leads you to being back exactly where you were.
1708
01:20:25.489 --> 01:20:28.520
All right. So we have to be aware of the
1709
01:20:28.579 --> 01:20:31.079
compromises that we make in all areas. You know, where
1710
01:20:31.180 --> 01:20:34.819
are we compromising? And most people are compromising literally fucking everything,
1711
01:20:35.439 --> 01:20:38.710
literally everything in their life. Nothing in their life is
1712
01:20:38.729 --> 01:20:42.270
an absolute nothing, nothing. It's all open for debate. It's
1713
01:20:42.350 --> 01:20:45.539
all open for discussion. It's all open for the circumstances
1714
01:20:45.579 --> 01:20:49.600
or the situation to dictate the actual actions that happen
1715
01:20:49.619 --> 01:20:53.159
in reality. And what this program is really about is
1716
01:20:53.239 --> 01:20:58.770
understanding that it's actually the opposite. These things, the drink,
1717
01:20:58.989 --> 01:21:05.060
the food, the workouts, they have zero control over me. Okay.
1718
01:21:05.239 --> 01:21:11.100
Like I choose to not do the alcohol or do
1719
01:21:11.149 --> 01:21:14.279
this food because I have control over it. It doesn't
1720
01:21:14.319 --> 01:21:17.699
control me. And when you look at a fucking, when you,
1721
01:21:18.060 --> 01:21:20.359
when you've been like me and you've been 350 pounds
1722
01:21:20.420 --> 01:21:25.060
and you have zero control. Okay. And you sit in
1723
01:21:25.100 --> 01:21:26.880
front of a pizza while four of your buddies are
1724
01:21:26.920 --> 01:21:28.859
fucking eating it and they're all getting smashed. I'm sitting
1725
01:21:28.880 --> 01:21:31.899
there drinking coffee, eating fucking some chicken and shit, bro.
1726
01:21:31.920 --> 01:21:35.159
There ain't nothing more powerful than that. Nothing. And we don't,
1727
01:21:36.520 --> 01:21:38.640
we're not conditioned to see it the right way. So
1728
01:21:38.720 --> 01:21:41.420
most people will see that situation. So you kind of
1729
01:21:41.439 --> 01:21:43.100
have to have a fucking chip on your shoulder to
1730
01:21:43.159 --> 01:21:46.090
really get this, you know? And so like when I'm
1731
01:21:46.119 --> 01:21:48.159
sitting down with my friends and they're eating shit and
1732
01:21:48.189 --> 01:21:50.590
drinking beers, I'm drinking a fucking coffee. You know what
1733
01:21:50.609 --> 01:21:54.010
I'm thinking? I'm getting better than all you motherfuckers. That's
1734
01:21:54.050 --> 01:21:56.149
my dialogue. And I don't care if it's you or
1735
01:21:56.170 --> 01:21:58.310
if it's Sal or if it's my fucking dad, it's
1736
01:21:58.329 --> 01:22:02.250
just the way I see shit. So enjoy your shit, motherfuckers.
1737
01:22:02.289 --> 01:22:04.109
I'll be over here getting better. And that's how I
1738
01:22:04.149 --> 01:22:06.470
look at it. And so what that program, what this
1739
01:22:06.510 --> 01:22:09.550
program is really about is bringing the awareness that you
1740
01:22:09.590 --> 01:22:12.550
are in control of you and most of the results
1741
01:22:12.770 --> 01:22:16.409
of your actions. Do we have circumstances that happen? Fuck yeah.
1742
01:22:16.840 --> 01:22:20.199
Do we have unexpected tragedies that happen? Yes. Do we
1743
01:22:20.239 --> 01:22:23.590
have challenges that come out of the blue every day? Well,
1744
01:22:23.649 --> 01:22:25.890
answer that for yourself. How'd your day go today? How
1745
01:22:25.930 --> 01:22:28.649
much shit came that you didn't expect to come? Usually
1746
01:22:28.689 --> 01:22:31.949
a fucking lie. So if we have the skills and
1747
01:22:31.989 --> 01:22:34.590
we have the confidence and we have the demeanor and
1748
01:22:34.630 --> 01:22:37.100
we have all these things that we're talking about, we
1749
01:22:37.140 --> 01:22:40.399
become better equipped to handle them as they come and
1750
01:22:40.439 --> 01:22:43.239
more effective as well and more happy and all of
1751
01:22:43.279 --> 01:22:45.380
the things that we're all out there searching for. So,
1752
01:22:45.899 --> 01:22:50.670
you know, it, Look, man, if I could, you know,
1753
01:22:51.029 --> 01:22:53.590
if I could give you a pill and make you
1754
01:22:53.630 --> 01:22:55.890
understand it, I would, you know what I'm saying? But
1755
01:22:55.930 --> 01:22:59.510
you just can't. Yeah, bro. And, and like seeing all
1756
01:22:59.550 --> 01:23:03.819
these people, uh, like, you know, cause dude, for us saying,
1757
01:23:04.460 --> 01:23:05.880
you know, there's a lot of people that don't do it.
1758
01:23:05.880 --> 01:23:09.159
There's a fuck ton to do too. And those people, man,
1759
01:23:10.479 --> 01:23:12.500
that's fucking awesome. It's one of the coolest things I've
1760
01:23:12.520 --> 01:23:13.220
ever seen in my life.
1761
01:23:13.819 --> 01:23:17.079
It's, it's been amazing to just watch online the stories
1762
01:23:17.140 --> 01:23:19.140
and then, you know, people that friends of mine I
1763
01:23:19.159 --> 01:23:22.340
haven't seen in years and you see it on, you know, Facebook, Instagram,
1764
01:23:22.359 --> 01:23:24.520
they're doing 75 hard and you see like the change
1765
01:23:24.560 --> 01:23:27.119
in them. I mean, it's just all the stories. Think
1766
01:23:27.159 --> 01:23:29.779
of the stories and the impact this program has had
1767
01:23:30.359 --> 01:23:32.630
because you were going to speak at an event and
1768
01:23:32.670 --> 01:23:35.970
you decided I got 75 days in order to prepare.
1769
01:23:36.109 --> 01:23:38.310
And then all of a sudden 75 hard was created
1770
01:23:38.430 --> 01:23:41.090
and you made a choice and you making that choice.
1771
01:23:41.109 --> 01:23:42.770
And I know you don't like when people, you know,
1772
01:23:42.850 --> 01:23:45.069
put you up on a pedestal like this, but you know,
1773
01:23:45.090 --> 01:23:47.779
you think of the impact and the stories and, And
1774
01:23:47.819 --> 01:23:49.670
you got to just keep this thing going, you know,
1775
01:23:49.689 --> 01:23:53.550
because it's just it's incredible what that one decision has
1776
01:23:53.609 --> 01:23:54.189
now done.
1777
01:23:54.210 --> 01:23:57.250
You know, it's I don't think I'll ever go back.
1778
01:23:57.609 --> 01:24:01.520
I mean, I'm afraid of going back. Like as confident
1779
01:24:01.560 --> 01:24:03.520
as I am, my abilities, I still have a couple
1780
01:24:03.539 --> 01:24:05.390
of things I'm afraid of now. For real.
1781
01:24:05.510 --> 01:24:08.670
And we all have those fears, doubts and uncertainties. But
1782
01:24:08.710 --> 01:24:11.470
the program teaches you to silence. Well, it's not it's
1783
01:24:11.489 --> 01:24:13.369
not only that, bro. It teaches you to leverage it.
1784
01:24:13.789 --> 01:24:16.029
So what it does like right now. So I've always
1785
01:24:16.050 --> 01:24:17.810
been afraid of losing my business.
1786
01:24:17.890 --> 01:24:22.710
Right. Like I'm I'm fucking scared of going back to
1787
01:24:22.710 --> 01:24:24.449
1999 and 2000 when I had to live on a
1788
01:24:24.630 --> 01:24:27.270
fucking mattress in a shitty store. OK, I don't want
1789
01:24:27.289 --> 01:24:29.010
to do that shit. I did that shit. Am I
1790
01:24:29.029 --> 01:24:32.680
doing it again? So that scares me.
1791
01:24:32.859 --> 01:24:33.100
Right.
1792
01:24:33.239 --> 01:24:36.180
Like like people, people hear that and they're like, yeah, right.
1793
01:24:36.199 --> 01:24:39.100
You don't really think that. No, dude, trust me. The
1794
01:24:39.149 --> 01:24:41.529
reason I run so hard and the reason I fucking
1795
01:24:41.590 --> 01:24:43.470
work the way I do and the reason I'm so
1796
01:24:43.569 --> 01:24:47.609
into this shit is because I do not ever, ever
1797
01:24:48.010 --> 01:24:49.710
want to go back there. That's how you could tell
1798
01:24:49.770 --> 01:24:52.310
somebody's actually been there. You know what I'm saying? Like
1799
01:24:52.329 --> 01:24:55.270
the motherfuckers I know that like their story is like legit.
1800
01:24:55.770 --> 01:24:57.409
You could tell by the way they act now how
1801
01:24:57.470 --> 01:24:59.609
legit their shit was back then. Like, you know what
1802
01:24:59.630 --> 01:25:01.789
I'm saying? No doubt. Everybody right now is popular to
1803
01:25:01.829 --> 01:25:04.329
have a story. But but do you know the ones
1804
01:25:04.350 --> 01:25:07.010
that really got it? But the other thing that makes
1805
01:25:07.069 --> 01:25:10.390
me afraid, dude, is getting fucking fat again, like fat,
1806
01:25:10.449 --> 01:25:13.069
fat like I was. You know what I'm saying? So
1807
01:25:13.250 --> 01:25:16.409
so like now I've developed that same perspective. Where I'm,
1808
01:25:16.649 --> 01:25:19.520
I'm working as hard as I can every day to
1809
01:25:19.579 --> 01:25:25.260
create as much distance between that fat fucking lazy motherfucker
1810
01:25:25.939 --> 01:25:27.979
and where I'm at now. You know what I'm saying?
1811
01:25:28.100 --> 01:25:30.229
And that's how I look at that shit. And so
1812
01:25:30.869 --> 01:25:32.689
I don't ever want to go back. So I really, I,
1813
01:25:33.510 --> 01:25:39.090
I really don't see myself like stop. Like, I'm not
1814
01:25:39.109 --> 01:25:41.390
saying I won't go on vacation and fucking, you know,
1815
01:25:41.609 --> 01:25:42.390
and enjoy myself.
1816
01:25:42.409 --> 01:25:44.319
But that's like, that's like the power of doing that.
1817
01:25:44.380 --> 01:25:47.609
Never do it again list, you know? Having a power list,
1818
01:25:47.649 --> 01:25:50.609
you know, there's a design to how you show up
1819
01:25:50.649 --> 01:25:51.130
in your life.
1820
01:25:51.260 --> 01:25:55.039
Well, the vacations look different now. Everything looks different. The
1821
01:25:55.060 --> 01:25:59.140
trips look different. The relaxing looks different. Like relaxing is
1822
01:25:59.180 --> 01:26:02.140
no longer sitting on the couch and ordering a fucking
1823
01:26:02.180 --> 01:26:05.229
extra large pizza and a bunch of fucking French fries
1824
01:26:05.250 --> 01:26:07.529
and shit. That's not relaxing. Relaxing is going for a
1825
01:26:07.550 --> 01:26:12.859
fucking lift here at HQ and And then doing some
1826
01:26:12.920 --> 01:26:14.920
outdoor cardio later in the afternoon, I got all the
1827
01:26:14.960 --> 01:26:16.800
bugs worked out and now I can relax like you
1828
01:26:16.819 --> 01:26:19.279
were talking about at the game, you know? So it's
1829
01:26:19.300 --> 01:26:23.779
just a different life, man. And, uh, I still love,
1830
01:26:24.090 --> 01:26:25.869
you know, having a good time, but, but what I
1831
01:26:25.909 --> 01:26:28.409
figured out is I fucking don't need all that extra
1832
01:26:28.449 --> 01:26:32.710
baggage that goes with it, you know? So I don't know, man,
1833
01:26:33.289 --> 01:26:34.789
I think we're onto something here. Yeah.
1834
01:26:36.689 --> 01:26:39.250
I applaud everybody out there who's done it, and I
1835
01:26:39.569 --> 01:26:42.560
applaud everybody who is getting ready to do it.
1836
01:26:42.590 --> 01:26:43.470
Yeah, do it.
1837
01:26:43.489 --> 01:26:45.630
And I say this all the time whenever I get
1838
01:26:45.670 --> 01:26:47.399
a chance to speak. Just give yourself permission.
1839
01:26:47.569 --> 01:26:47.800
Yeah.
1840
01:26:48.640 --> 01:26:50.819
Don't do this for Andy. Don't do this for me.
1841
01:26:50.899 --> 01:26:53.020
Don't do it because you listen to this podcast. Give
1842
01:26:53.060 --> 01:26:55.319
yourself permission to finally go out and figure out how
1843
01:26:55.359 --> 01:26:55.960
great you can be.
1844
01:26:56.140 --> 01:27:02.770
Yeah, man. Yeah. Dude, it's a powerful thing. Dude, thinking
1845
01:27:02.819 --> 01:27:06.000
back to where I was before I did this, and
1846
01:27:06.039 --> 01:27:09.500
how fucking weak of a mind I actually had and
1847
01:27:09.539 --> 01:27:12.939
how successful I had become with that mind. And now
1848
01:27:12.979 --> 01:27:15.270
where I'm at now with like, it gets me excited.
1849
01:27:15.529 --> 01:27:17.850
I'm like, Holy fuck. And you realize there's more. I
1850
01:27:17.869 --> 01:27:18.170
got all.
1851
01:27:18.289 --> 01:27:20.210
That's what you and I talked about. No, it's like,
1852
01:27:20.270 --> 01:27:22.069
it's like you feel like you're still scratching the surface
1853
01:27:22.109 --> 01:27:25.069
of what's capable. There's no question. Fucking I am.
1854
01:27:25.270 --> 01:27:27.310
I mean, I drove here today in a nice car, but, uh,
1855
01:27:27.689 --> 01:27:30.909
Jeff Bezos went to fucking space yesterday so like like
1856
01:27:31.149 --> 01:27:33.109
I I got some fucking going to do you know
1857
01:27:33.189 --> 01:27:37.810
like uh I know where exactly where the fuck I
1858
01:27:37.949 --> 01:27:40.760
am and how much I haven't done yet so I
1859
01:27:40.800 --> 01:27:43.520
don't know man I'm we kind of did like a
1860
01:27:43.560 --> 01:27:47.000
whole fucking 75 hard fucking sales pitch this whole time
1861
01:27:47.039 --> 01:27:49.430
but dude the truth is I can't sell something that's
1862
01:27:49.449 --> 01:27:52.090
fucking free so I'm just trying to help you guys out.
1863
01:27:52.260 --> 01:27:54.020
And I'll go back to what I said earlier. It's
1864
01:27:54.060 --> 01:27:57.520
not selling it. It's what's wrong with encouraging somebody to
1865
01:27:57.539 --> 01:28:00.060
figure out how great they can be. I mean, if
1866
01:28:00.100 --> 01:28:02.560
you're pissed off at us for that, that's a good thing.
1867
01:28:03.319 --> 01:28:05.659
If that causes you to give yourself permission, then that's
1868
01:28:05.680 --> 01:28:07.840
a good thing. What do you think that's about, bro? Like,
1869
01:28:07.880 --> 01:28:10.060
what do you really think that's about? Like the mediocrity
1870
01:28:10.079 --> 01:28:13.899
that's going on? I think people have just been protected.
1871
01:28:13.930 --> 01:28:16.949
You know, it's like anything. You got to 350 pounds
1872
01:28:16.970 --> 01:28:19.989
because you were conditioned to think like, OK, I've got
1873
01:28:20.010 --> 01:28:21.890
a great business. Things are going on in my life.
1874
01:28:21.930 --> 01:28:23.329
So what does it matter from this? So you just
1875
01:28:23.390 --> 01:28:25.090
condition yourself to think, well, it's OK.
1876
01:28:25.130 --> 01:28:25.869
I'm good. Right.
1877
01:28:26.390 --> 01:28:28.649
Nobody questioned it. You just kept doing what you were doing.
1878
01:28:29.069 --> 01:28:31.699
So there's patterns of behavior where you just people are stuck.
1879
01:28:32.520 --> 01:28:34.619
And if you have somebody who's been babied their whole life,
1880
01:28:34.680 --> 01:28:36.880
maybe they've just been conditioned to think that way. Maybe
1881
01:28:36.899 --> 01:28:39.199
they've had somebody never believed in them. Dude, I think
1882
01:28:39.239 --> 01:28:39.779
that's most of.
1883
01:28:39.850 --> 01:28:39.920
It.
1884
01:28:41.029 --> 01:28:43.640
I mean, and so really, yeah, Andy and I, we
1885
01:28:43.649 --> 01:28:46.539
get intense, we get passionate, but the reality is what
1886
01:28:46.579 --> 01:28:48.340
we're really saying is we believe in you.
1887
01:28:48.439 --> 01:28:48.659
Yeah.
1888
01:28:48.920 --> 01:28:51.720
Like we believe that you can do this and we
1889
01:28:51.760 --> 01:28:53.800
believe that this will unlock what it means for you
1890
01:28:53.819 --> 01:28:56.680
to be your best. And so whether it's self-talk, lack
1891
01:28:56.720 --> 01:28:59.640
of belief, people haven't told them that they're good enough. Like,
1892
01:28:59.970 --> 01:29:01.489
Just go live in the pain. Or that they can
1893
01:29:01.529 --> 01:29:05.260
be good enough. Yeah, and go, whatever your pain is,
1894
01:29:05.340 --> 01:29:08.220
go live in that pain. I've been through so much painful,
1895
01:29:08.279 --> 01:29:11.579
tough stuff in my life that for me, like, I just,
1896
01:29:11.960 --> 01:29:16.359
I know that there's another level. And I'm willing to
1897
01:29:16.420 --> 01:29:18.930
get inside that fire and go find that next level.
1898
01:29:18.970 --> 01:29:21.380
And when more pain comes, I will fight through it.
1899
01:29:21.430 --> 01:29:23.090
And I want everybody to experience that too.
1900
01:29:23.630 --> 01:29:27.710
How do you think, like, if we're talking to someone
1901
01:29:27.750 --> 01:29:33.210
right now who's completely... this, let's just say, you know,
1902
01:29:33.409 --> 01:29:37.069
today's the first day they ever thought that maybe they
1903
01:29:37.090 --> 01:29:40.310
wanted to do something like this. What would you say
1904
01:29:40.329 --> 01:29:40.810
to that person?
1905
01:29:41.350 --> 01:29:43.670
I would say, I want you to identify the reason
1906
01:29:43.789 --> 01:29:46.939
why when you think about it tomorrow, you're still going
1907
01:29:46.949 --> 01:29:49.300
to want to do it. And, you know, so our podcast,
1908
01:29:49.319 --> 01:29:51.079
which you've been on is one of the best episodes
1909
01:29:51.100 --> 01:29:53.779
we ever did at the old HQ. It's called the burn.
1910
01:29:53.840 --> 01:29:57.109
And I believe there, there, Tell them a little bit
1911
01:29:57.130 --> 01:30:00.069
about the show. All the speakers and coaches that are
1912
01:30:00.130 --> 01:30:03.670
out there, I think they significantly miss something very important.
1913
01:30:04.569 --> 01:30:06.670
And they talk about why and they talk about purpose,
1914
01:30:06.729 --> 01:30:07.689
which is significant.
1915
01:30:08.250 --> 01:30:11.090
But they forget to talk about the burn. There's a fire.
1916
01:30:11.130 --> 01:30:14.069
There's an underlying burn inside of you that's going to
1917
01:30:14.149 --> 01:30:16.850
cause you to ignite that why and that purpose, which
1918
01:30:16.890 --> 01:30:19.510
then leads to the necessary action to figure out how
1919
01:30:19.590 --> 01:30:22.819
great you can be. I remember the Arte event. speaking
1920
01:30:22.859 --> 01:30:24.439
with Marshall, right? I got to warm up the stage
1921
01:30:24.460 --> 01:30:26.420
for Marshall Falk being a St. Louis born kid. That
1922
01:30:26.439 --> 01:30:28.560
was one of the coolest things ever. And so I
1923
01:30:28.579 --> 01:30:30.380
remember asking you guys, can I stay on and listen?
1924
01:30:30.420 --> 01:30:31.720
And then I got to hear Jocko. I mean, it
1925
01:30:31.739 --> 01:30:35.560
was awesome. And Marshall started talking when Ed was like, okay,
1926
01:30:35.579 --> 01:30:37.260
tell him what room you're in, in the hall of fame.
1927
01:30:37.279 --> 01:30:38.779
He's like, I'm in the room, in the room. Like
1928
01:30:39.199 --> 01:30:40.760
there's like one of 10 guys that ever walked the
1929
01:30:40.800 --> 01:30:42.220
face of the earth that have accomplished in the game
1930
01:30:42.260 --> 01:30:43.100
of football at Marshall.
1931
01:30:43.560 --> 01:30:45.520
And Marshall goes, there was just something in my belly.
1932
01:30:45.560 --> 01:30:46.399
It was just it.
1933
01:30:46.539 --> 01:30:47.880
Like it was, I don't even know what the hell
1934
01:30:47.899 --> 01:30:50.119
you call it. And I remember looking at the screen,
1935
01:30:50.140 --> 01:30:52.979
like Marshall, that's the burn. And we all have it.
1936
01:30:53.270 --> 01:30:55.949
It's like if you right now are teeter-tottering, do I,
1937
01:30:56.050 --> 01:30:58.529
don't I, why are you going to do it? What's
1938
01:30:58.550 --> 01:31:01.289
the fire inside of you? Who's made a sacrifice for you, right?
1939
01:31:01.310 --> 01:31:04.600
So for me, everything's about honoring my mom. All the donations,
1940
01:31:04.619 --> 01:31:07.560
the work. It's always an honor of my mom. That's
1941
01:31:07.579 --> 01:31:10.279
why I said September 18th will be the 75th day
1942
01:31:10.560 --> 01:31:12.260
because every day I'm going to wake up and I'm
1943
01:31:12.279 --> 01:31:14.659
going to write down my mother's name, Janet Fishman Newman,
1944
01:31:14.680 --> 01:31:15.119
the burn.
1945
01:31:15.220 --> 01:31:17.180
Bang, there it is. I will not stop.
1946
01:31:18.229 --> 01:31:21.069
And so everybody has that, right? My story is not
1947
01:31:21.090 --> 01:31:23.689
going to motivate you to do 75 hard, but there's
1948
01:31:23.829 --> 01:31:26.760
something in you that if you grab it and if
1949
01:31:26.800 --> 01:31:28.859
you wake up every day and you say, I'm going
1950
01:31:28.880 --> 01:31:31.340
to connect to that fire inside of me, you ain't
1951
01:31:31.359 --> 01:31:32.140
hitting that snooze button.
1952
01:31:32.319 --> 01:31:34.859
No, I think one of the best things too about
1953
01:31:34.880 --> 01:31:38.399
the program, dude, is that the motivation sort of built in.
1954
01:31:38.880 --> 01:31:41.260
Like if you can force yourself to grit through the
1955
01:31:41.319 --> 01:31:45.090
first 15 or 16 days, like, dude, If you're someone
1956
01:31:45.130 --> 01:31:48.029
struggling right now, I would challenge you. Get through the
1957
01:31:48.069 --> 01:31:51.529
first fucking 16 or 17 days. Okay? That's a lot
1958
01:31:51.770 --> 01:31:56.210
easier of a thing to digest than 75, right? Absolutely.
1959
01:31:56.529 --> 01:31:58.770
Go 15, 16 days. When was the last time you
1960
01:31:58.789 --> 01:32:03.369
did 16 days of fucking anything? Okay? So do it.
1961
01:32:03.880 --> 01:32:07.140
Because what happens is, and by the way, you will
1962
01:32:07.180 --> 01:32:10.869
have to fucking force yourself through that. You will have
1963
01:32:10.909 --> 01:32:14.210
to work. You will be sore as fuck. You will
1964
01:32:14.250 --> 01:32:16.369
be like, holy shit. I don't know if I can
1965
01:32:16.390 --> 01:32:20.979
do this. Your feet will hurt. Okay. But just do
1966
01:32:21.420 --> 01:32:24.880
force yourself through and let the momentum. Sometimes it takes
1967
01:32:24.880 --> 01:32:28.100
20 days. Sometimes it takes 25 days. But what eventually
1968
01:32:28.149 --> 01:32:30.850
happens to every single person that does this is that
1969
01:32:30.890 --> 01:32:34.079
they create the momentum themselves. And that's one of the
1970
01:32:34.119 --> 01:32:37.300
most valuable skills that 75 Hard teaches is that it
1971
01:32:37.399 --> 01:32:41.520
teaches you that you can manufacture momentum on demand. And
1972
01:32:41.560 --> 01:32:46.329
if you can manufacture momentum on demand, you can always
1973
01:32:46.390 --> 01:32:50.010
be motivated. You can always be working towards your goal
1974
01:32:50.050 --> 01:32:52.189
and you can always be in that zone of feeling
1975
01:32:52.250 --> 01:32:54.609
good about it. And you'll realize you have more capacity
1976
01:32:54.649 --> 01:32:56.100
to do more in your life. Yeah.
1977
01:32:56.319 --> 01:32:59.470
That was another byproduct I completely forgot. I had been
1978
01:32:59.510 --> 01:33:01.609
telling myself forever, what do I need to write another
1979
01:33:01.649 --> 01:33:03.609
book for? I'd already written all these books. Why write
1980
01:33:03.649 --> 01:33:06.029
another book? And now my next book is coming out
1981
01:33:06.140 --> 01:33:09.380
and there's a chapter dedicated to you. The Andy Frisella
1982
01:33:09.399 --> 01:33:11.800
chapter on leadership is not for everybody. Did you say
1983
01:33:11.819 --> 01:33:16.319
like one word? But it's, you know, it's one of
1984
01:33:16.359 --> 01:33:18.729
those things. Like I was telling myself, so I wrote
1985
01:33:18.770 --> 01:33:21.189
another book because of 75.
1986
01:33:21.189 --> 01:33:21.609
That's why.
1987
01:33:22.500 --> 01:33:25.020
And so you realize like I have more capacity because
1988
01:33:25.260 --> 01:33:28.079
if you're watching Netflix three hours a night, like you
1989
01:33:28.119 --> 01:33:30.479
could go down to an hour of Netflix, still get
1990
01:33:30.510 --> 01:33:32.590
in a couple of good episodes, right? We want you
1991
01:33:32.630 --> 01:33:35.010
to enjoy your life, but take the two hours back.
1992
01:33:35.050 --> 01:33:37.689
That's all you need to complete the program in its entirety.
1993
01:33:38.449 --> 01:33:40.710
And then your meals. And so, you know, it's one
1994
01:33:40.729 --> 01:33:41.170
of those things.
1995
01:33:41.189 --> 01:33:44.840
There's so many things that happen and it's just people
1996
01:33:44.880 --> 01:33:46.819
got to get out there and trust themselves and believe
1997
01:33:46.840 --> 01:33:47.630
in themselves and do it.
1998
01:33:47.760 --> 01:33:53.319
What could someone from your experience, what could, someone who
1999
01:33:53.359 --> 01:33:57.380
hasn't done it, who, who is just, let's just say they're, they're, they're,
2000
01:33:57.539 --> 01:34:00.199
they're a regular person. Okay. They've got a job. They've
2001
01:34:00.220 --> 01:34:04.859
got bills to pay. They're busy. They've had family obligations.
2002
01:34:06.329 --> 01:34:11.930
What would you say that that person will gain from
2003
01:34:12.250 --> 01:34:12.890
this program?
2004
01:34:13.210 --> 01:34:18.079
I would say it's clarity, awareness, intentionality. And there's like,
2005
01:34:18.500 --> 01:34:22.350
there's like a presence, You will be more intentional when
2006
01:34:22.369 --> 01:34:25.750
you're eating dinner with your family because everything has a purpose.
2007
01:34:25.789 --> 01:34:29.960
Your actions have more purpose. And to me, you add
2008
01:34:30.000 --> 01:34:32.680
that burn to it, the reason why, and you really
2009
01:34:32.739 --> 01:34:35.539
intentionally connect to why you're going to make that sacrifice
2010
01:34:35.560 --> 01:34:38.460
to do that. Everything kind of slows down in your life.
2011
01:34:38.500 --> 01:34:40.479
You see things differently. I promise you, you'll be a
2012
01:34:40.500 --> 01:34:43.260
better wife, a better husband, a better mother, a better father.
2013
01:34:44.090 --> 01:34:47.069
Those are all byproducts. And I think a lot of
2014
01:34:47.109 --> 01:34:49.949
times people hear us talk about winning, right? That's winning.
2015
01:34:50.600 --> 01:34:52.920
Winning is believing that you can have balance in all
2016
01:34:52.960 --> 01:34:54.699
these areas of your life. Not, well, I'm a really
2017
01:34:54.779 --> 01:34:57.310
busy in my business. So therefore I can't do these
2018
01:34:57.350 --> 01:34:57.810
other things.
2019
01:34:58.010 --> 01:34:58.970
You can. Yeah.
2020
01:34:59.510 --> 01:35:01.710
So do it. If you watch yourself, do it. And
2021
01:35:01.970 --> 01:35:04.329
the belief that you'll have in yourself, you'll be, you'll
2022
01:35:04.369 --> 01:35:06.390
believe you could write a book. If you never wanted to,
2023
01:35:06.390 --> 01:35:08.229
if you've never even thought you could write a book,
2024
01:35:08.789 --> 01:35:10.520
you'll slow down and say, I'm going to write a book.
2025
01:35:10.739 --> 01:35:12.420
I'm going to do something. I'm going to start a charity.
2026
01:35:12.460 --> 01:35:14.220
I'm going to do something for my kids. I'm going
2027
01:35:14.239 --> 01:35:16.720
to coach their team. Your life will change.
2028
01:35:16.920 --> 01:35:17.060
Yep.
2029
01:35:17.600 --> 01:35:23.829
Dude. What about, what about, So you mentioned there, you know,
2030
01:35:23.850 --> 01:35:28.079
the dinner with your family and people are confused on
2031
01:35:28.239 --> 01:35:31.039
why you're going to be more present. The reason that
2032
01:35:31.060 --> 01:35:33.270
you're going to be more present at those things, guys,
2033
01:35:33.329 --> 01:35:37.050
is because you're living intentionally, like literally living intentionally because
2034
01:35:37.069 --> 01:35:40.210
you're forced to, because there's so much shit that you
2035
01:35:40.250 --> 01:35:43.729
gotta get done with this program. So what happens is,
2036
01:35:44.409 --> 01:35:47.310
you start scheduling out all of your, like literally every
2037
01:35:47.350 --> 01:35:51.659
minute of your day, and like you said, when that
2038
01:35:51.779 --> 01:35:54.000
time comes, that's what you're doing, and you're doing, it's
2039
01:35:54.020 --> 01:35:58.159
time management and awareness, and living with intent. And that's
2040
01:35:58.180 --> 01:36:01.800
what you're truly going to learn is when you grasp
2041
01:36:01.859 --> 01:36:04.880
these things and start putting them into effect, bro, you're
2042
01:36:04.920 --> 01:36:08.619
calling the shots now, not fucking, uh, you know, the
2043
01:36:08.659 --> 01:36:13.170
bad news you got this afternoon or the, uh, you know,
2044
01:36:13.189 --> 01:36:14.770
the dinner that you didn't know you had to go
2045
01:36:14.829 --> 01:36:18.609
to or the unexpected things. Now you're in control of
2046
01:36:18.649 --> 01:36:21.989
those things. Even when they're happening to you, you're able
2047
01:36:22.029 --> 01:36:25.529
to work through them and move. So, uh, You know, guys,
2048
01:36:25.550 --> 01:36:28.180
there's so many benefits of this program, and we talk
2049
01:36:28.189 --> 01:36:31.180
about them all in depth in the book, which you
2050
01:36:31.199 --> 01:36:34.560
can buy the book, and it's going to tell you
2051
01:36:34.720 --> 01:36:37.859
exactly what's going to happen. All right? So some people
2052
01:36:37.899 --> 01:36:39.699
like to buy the book ahead of time and read
2053
01:36:39.720 --> 01:36:42.149
the book. Some people like to read the book after
2054
01:36:42.170 --> 01:36:44.729
they've done the program. And so if you... Yeah, because, dude,
2055
01:36:44.770 --> 01:36:46.890
it's pretty cool to read the book and be like,
2056
01:36:47.430 --> 01:36:50.170
holy fuck, this is exactly what the fuck happened. You
2057
01:36:50.189 --> 01:36:52.109
know what I'm saying? Yeah, all the how you felt. Yeah.
2058
01:36:52.369 --> 01:36:52.529
So.
2059
01:36:53.689 --> 01:36:57.020
It's neat to see people do both. So if you
2060
01:36:57.060 --> 01:36:59.600
think you're one of the persons that wants to be surprised,
2061
01:37:00.359 --> 01:37:02.380
read the book at the end. And then go to
2062
01:37:02.399 --> 01:37:06.029
the podcast and do it, you know, what is it?
2063
01:37:06.239 --> 01:37:08.359
What did I say? 14 and 80. Go listen to
2064
01:37:08.380 --> 01:37:11.289
those podcasts. Episode 14 and number 80. And you can
2065
01:37:11.649 --> 01:37:13.250
do it. It's free. It'll tell you exactly how to
2066
01:37:13.289 --> 01:37:15.170
do it. You can do it on a sheet of paper.
2067
01:37:15.210 --> 01:37:17.710
I have the templates on my IG page. All right?
2068
01:37:18.550 --> 01:37:20.369
If you want, you can... There is a phase one, two,
2069
01:37:20.390 --> 01:37:22.409
and three. That's right. Yeah, there is. There is a...
2070
01:37:22.350 --> 01:37:26.000
75 hard is only the first part of the program. Um,
2071
01:37:26.340 --> 01:37:29.100
but you know, there's tools to support it. We have
2072
01:37:29.140 --> 01:37:31.439
the app, we have the book, we have all kinds
2073
01:37:31.479 --> 01:37:33.579
of different things for it, but you do not have
2074
01:37:33.640 --> 01:37:35.880
to buy any of it. You could just go listen
2075
01:37:35.899 --> 01:37:38.250
to the podcast and do it. So be one of
2076
01:37:38.289 --> 01:37:39.869
the people, you know, if you don't want to spend
2077
01:37:39.890 --> 01:37:41.710
the money, you think that we're kind of bullshitting you
2078
01:37:41.729 --> 01:37:43.750
a little bit or whatever the fuck you think, uh,
2079
01:37:43.989 --> 01:37:46.210
fucking don't buy shit. Go listen to the podcast and
2080
01:37:46.250 --> 01:37:48.130
do it. See if I'm right. I know I'm right.
2081
01:37:48.649 --> 01:37:52.159
But it will fucking change you and it will make
2082
01:37:52.199 --> 01:37:54.000
your life better. And dude, I just want to say
2083
01:37:54.060 --> 01:37:57.119
thanks for coming on and sharing what you shared today
2084
01:37:57.220 --> 01:38:04.229
because bro, the change that you made, like not just physically,
2085
01:38:04.250 --> 01:38:07.510
I mean, physically, bro, you're a different machine completely. Um,
2086
01:38:07.729 --> 01:38:11.789
but like the mentality sharpness and the ability, like, dude,
2087
01:38:11.850 --> 01:38:13.210
I can see it in your content. I see it
2088
01:38:13.229 --> 01:38:15.090
in the things you're saying. I feel in your energy
2089
01:38:15.550 --> 01:38:18.399
and dude, it's exciting to see that because it's like, yeah, dude,
2090
01:38:18.479 --> 01:38:22.119
it's like a, like, It's like a new version, but
2091
01:38:22.159 --> 01:38:26.770
the old version was fucking awesome. Like, it's fucking cool, dude. So, um,
2092
01:38:27.149 --> 01:38:30.399
you know, congratulations on the work you've done, man. It's cool. And, um,
2093
01:38:31.359 --> 01:38:33.119
I really appreciate you making time to come on the
2094
01:38:33.140 --> 01:38:35.699
show and talk about it. And guys, if you haven't,
2095
01:38:36.000 --> 01:38:37.840
you know, been familiar with Ben, cause we have a
2096
01:38:37.859 --> 01:38:39.659
lot of new listeners. You should go check him out.
2097
01:38:39.720 --> 01:38:44.029
His Instagram is, is it Ben Newman now? Okay. It's
2098
01:38:44.090 --> 01:38:47.590
at continued fight. Um, and where's tell them about like
2099
01:38:47.630 --> 01:38:49.810
where else they can get you. Well, I mean, check
2100
01:38:49.850 --> 01:38:54.409
out the new book, uncommon leadership. It comes out August 3rd. Okay. And, uh, Ed,
2101
01:38:54.449 --> 01:38:55.689
my let wrote the forward.
2102
01:38:56.029 --> 01:38:58.970
And I mean, it's, it's influenced essentially what I wanted
2103
01:38:59.010 --> 01:39:01.369
to do was honor people that have impacted me. This
2104
01:39:01.430 --> 01:39:03.869
is not some biography like about my life. This is
2105
01:39:03.909 --> 01:39:06.689
like lessons I've been blessed to learn from 11 amazing
2106
01:39:06.750 --> 01:39:10.250
leaders that have impacted my life. And so you've had
2107
01:39:10.270 --> 01:39:13.670
a huge impact on my life. This has changed my life.
2108
01:39:13.770 --> 01:39:16.399
I will forever be a different person. And so I
2109
01:39:16.460 --> 01:39:19.000
had to honor you in the book. And I appreciate
2110
01:39:19.060 --> 01:39:21.649
our friendship. And I appreciate you having me on.
2111
01:39:21.699 --> 01:39:26.390
Yeah, likewise. Guys, follow Ben, support Ben, you know, definitely
2112
01:39:26.430 --> 01:39:27.069
buy his book.
2113
01:39:27.689 --> 01:39:29.390
Oh, let me mention one more thing about the book,
2114
01:39:29.409 --> 01:39:31.050
because this is something I don't know if I've ever
2115
01:39:31.789 --> 01:39:34.270
heard of an author doing this. But Charlie, another friend
2116
01:39:34.289 --> 01:39:38.569
of ours, he actually he's just an inspiration.
2117
01:39:38.590 --> 01:39:38.829
Yeah.
2118
01:39:39.270 --> 01:39:42.329
And 100% of the proceeds from the book are being
2119
01:39:42.409 --> 01:39:44.609
donated to start a new facet of his charity to
2120
01:39:44.630 --> 01:39:47.109
honor teachers. So my mother was a teacher. So I've
2121
01:39:47.130 --> 01:39:50.770
already sent him $ 30, 000 from the pre-sales, not like my
2122
01:39:50.850 --> 01:39:53.819
profits from the book, 100%. Like if you buy it
2123
01:39:53.880 --> 01:39:57.520
on Amazon for 25 bucks, I'm donating $ 25, which means
2124
01:39:57.619 --> 01:39:59.520
I'm coming out of pocket with you with every book.
2125
01:39:59.539 --> 01:40:02.140
I ain't making money on these books because I wanted
2126
01:40:02.199 --> 01:40:04.140
to pay it forward in a significant way. Cause there's
2127
01:40:04.180 --> 01:40:06.819
teachers who can't even buy their own school supplies. And
2128
01:40:06.859 --> 01:40:09.300
now I realize that's what my mother went through. And
2129
01:40:09.310 --> 01:40:11.340
I've been blessed with so many things that have happened
2130
01:40:11.359 --> 01:40:13.760
in my career that for me to be able to
2131
01:40:13.819 --> 01:40:16.300
give back with all of you to a cause like
2132
01:40:16.340 --> 01:40:18.020
that for teachers, I don't need.
2133
01:40:17.939 --> 01:40:21.119
To make any money on books. That's awesome, dude. That's awesome, bro.
2134
01:40:21.840 --> 01:40:24.800
Well guys, you know, give him a follow, give him,
2135
01:40:25.170 --> 01:40:27.930
check out his book, uh, check out his content, check
2136
01:40:27.970 --> 01:40:30.250
out his podcast, the burn. It's fucking cool. It's a
2137
01:40:30.289 --> 01:40:32.409
different format than most of the other podcasts out there,
2138
01:40:32.430 --> 01:40:35.390
which I really like. I loved being on it. Um,
2139
01:40:36.439 --> 01:40:38.119
And guys, I just want to say thanks, man. You know,
2140
01:40:38.159 --> 01:40:40.880
thanks for always supporting us. Thanks for sharing the word.
2141
01:40:41.380 --> 01:40:43.899
You know, we don't run ads and we don't do
2142
01:40:43.960 --> 01:40:46.520
all that bullshit everybody else does. So if you like
2143
01:40:46.560 --> 01:40:48.920
the show, if it was good, you know, pay the fee, man.
2144
01:40:48.960 --> 01:40:51.840
Give us a share. Share us on your social or
2145
01:40:51.880 --> 01:40:53.819

01:40:54.880 --> 01:40:56.649
But we are here to help you guys. We're here
2147

2148
01:40:59.689 --> 01:41:01.970
you some fucking awareness or some truth, give you some
2149
01:41:02.029 --> 01:41:05.630
skills to make this place better, man. You know, we're
2150
01:41:05.670 --> 01:41:07.229
all sick of this shit going on in the world.
2151
01:41:07.250 --> 01:41:08.609
And the only way it's going to get better is
2152
01:41:08.649 --> 01:41:12.020
if we fucking get better. So I love you guys.
2153
01:41:12.060 --> 01:41:13.779
I appreciate you guys. And I'll talk to you guys
2154
01:41:13.819 --> 01:41:14.319
next time.
