1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,500
What's going on? 
Y'all Roberts like sceeto 

2
00:00:01,500 --> 00:00:03,000
Savage.com? 
And today I've got special, 

3
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,000
guest Marcus Aurelius Anderson 
back on the podcast. 

4
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,600
We just completed David Goggins 
four by four by forty eight 

5
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,500
challenge. 
So, this podcast dives into all 

6
00:00:12,500 --> 00:00:14,200
that we learned, throughout that
process. 

7
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,800
We dive into whole bunch for the
growth mindset, philosophies and

8
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,100
principles, always a pleasure 
chatting with him. 

9
00:00:19,100 --> 00:00:21,200
I always level up after talking 
with him. 

10
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,900
I've got no doubt that you will 
take something positive from 

11
00:00:23,900 --> 00:00:26,100
this conversation. 
So that for their do is sit 

12
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:27,900
back, relax. 
Enjoy the podcast. 

13
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,600
My good friend Marcus Aurelius. 
Sanderson. 

14
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000
And we are live Marcus, Aurelius
Anderson in the building coming 

15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,500
at you depleted, tired and worn 
out. 

16
00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:48,400
How are you man? 
I'm great, man. 

17
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,200
I know you're depleted tired and
worn out as well. 

18
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,900
But here we are, and we're 
stronger for it, right? 

19
00:00:52,900 --> 00:00:54,600
That's right. 
So for anybody that does not 

20
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,700
know, we just got done doing the
David Goggins four by four by 

21
00:00:57,700 --> 00:01:01,700
forty eight challenge, the find 
that Force real quick. 

22
00:01:02,100 --> 00:01:06,200
So Dawkins created that three 
years ago and the idea was to 

23
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,900
run for Miles every four hours 
for 48 hours straight to really 

24
00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:13,700
push you and see what your body 
was capable of very much has the

25
00:01:13,700 --> 00:01:16,400
sleep deprivation built into it 
very much, like the military, 

26
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,200
lots of times. 
We can't dictate the environment

27
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,500
or the timeframe, but we still 
have to act. 

28
00:01:21,900 --> 00:01:24,900
And so this is a really good way
for us to it's a good gut check.

29
00:01:24,900 --> 00:01:27,100
For sure. 
And then it also shows you what 

30
00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:28,900
else you're capable of on those 
days? 

31
00:01:28,900 --> 00:01:31,300
Like, we were talking about 
when, oh, I don't feel like 

32
00:01:31,300 --> 00:01:32,700
working out. 
I don't feel like doing this 

33
00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:38,200
second set of cardio when you've
done, six sets of runs, 24 Mile 

34
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,600
runs in a day and we actually 
did because of you. 

35
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,200
We did an extra two miles. 
So we got fifty hours. 

36
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,000
I mean, 50 miles in, I didn't 
know this. 

37
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,100
This is he. 
He made this three years ago. 

38
00:01:48,100 --> 00:01:49,300
I thought last year was the 
first one. 

39
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:50,800
No. 
The year before the last year, 

40
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,600
was the first year that I did 
it, but it happened here before.

41
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,100
But I was, I was sort of aware 
of of it, but I didn't know what

42
00:01:57,100 --> 00:01:58,900
it really entailed. 
Gotcha. 

43
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,600
Gotcha. 
I want to dive deep into like 

44
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,300
Our protocol what we did, what 
we learned from that eccentric 

45
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:07,500
cetera, but I want to give you a
nice chance to kind of introduce

46
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:09,900
yourself. 
We've been on the podcast twice 

47
00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:13,200
before once or twice before. 
So people should definitely go 

48
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,200
to Nana, listen to those 
episodes. 

49
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,900
But for those that have not, 
what's the kind of like a quick 

50
00:02:17,900 --> 00:02:21,000
biopsy of you not biopsy with 
quick bio of you, I guess? 

51
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,300
I iove. 
Yeah, the the snapshot is I'm a 

52
00:02:23,300 --> 00:02:24,900
tedx speaker best-selling author
of the book. 

53
00:02:24,900 --> 00:02:28,000
The Gift of adversity. 
I have a podcast which you've 

54
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,100
been on a couple of times called
octane number, but it's Latin 

55
00:02:31,100 --> 00:02:32,800
for Deeds, not words. 
It's, which is why we're doing 

56
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,300
what we're doing. 
And then I'm also an executive 

57
00:02:35,300 --> 00:02:39,200
and mindset coach, two leaders 
CEOs and other entrepreneurs. 

58
00:02:39,300 --> 00:02:42,800
And that's, that's what I do and
you and I met each other. 

59
00:02:42,900 --> 00:02:45,900
I think 2017-2018 something like
that. 

60
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:49,600
I think it was late. 17, maybe 
early eighteen weird story as to

61
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,500
how we met my barber. 
Who is kind of out there. 

62
00:02:53,500 --> 00:02:57,200
This is like an old Barber and 
she recommended I get in touch 

63
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,200
with you because she was 
following your stuff on Facebook

64
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,200
or something like them. 
So, we had like, A three-way 

65
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,700
call. 
She was trying to like sell us 

66
00:03:03,700 --> 00:03:06,700
both on something. 
I think and we didn't really 

67
00:03:06,700 --> 00:03:08,900
like what see what she was 
selling but we liked each other.

68
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,600
So we just continue the 
conversation after she got off 

69
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,300
the line and then next thing, 
you know, you're on my podcast 

70
00:03:14,300 --> 00:03:16,200
on your podcast here. 
We are running 50 miles 

71
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,700
together. 
So pretty cool how that works 

72
00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:20,200
out. 
Small world kind of for the 

73
00:03:20,208 --> 00:03:24,000
better, but we've never done 
you. 

74
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,200
And I both have talked at length
about mindset, you know, acting 

75
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,500
instead of just talking but 
we've never actually done 

76
00:03:30,500 --> 00:03:33,300
anything. 
That was physically or mentally 

77
00:03:33,300 --> 00:03:36,400
strenuous in tandem until this 
event, which was pretty cool, 

78
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:40,400
because we knew we knew we were 
both capable of doing this last 

79
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,000
year. 
When you didn't, I did not 

80
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,400
because I was traveling at a 
conference or something. 

81
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,300
I remember what the deal was but
but this year we jumped on it 

82
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,700
and we did it in person. 
So we had you came out here on 

83
00:03:54,700 --> 00:03:58,700
Friday. 
The the runs started at 10 p.m. 

84
00:03:58,700 --> 00:04:00,900
Which was the same time. 
Goggins was starting the runs. 

85
00:04:01,700 --> 00:04:04,800
But we wanted to make, we 
couldn't just do 48 miles, 48 

86
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,000
miles. 
I mean that's impressive and all

87
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,800
but 50 miles is much more 
noteworthy. 

88
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,600
It's a nice round number. 
Yeah, so we ran two miles before

89
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,800
it all started. 
And then at 10 p.m. 

90
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,300
On Friday, we started the 
official four by four by forty 

91
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:21,399
eight. 
And we started the first three 

92
00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:23,600
state was three stents that we 
did on the pavement. 

93
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,100
Yeah. 
Yeah, we did. 

94
00:04:25,100 --> 00:04:27,200
Yeah. 
So the first it was dark 

95
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,400
obviously starting at 10 p.m. 
So we want to do. 

96
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,500
There's a I'll field Prairie 
Grove Battlefield State Park. 

97
00:04:33,500 --> 00:04:34,600
They've got like a one-mile 
loop. 

98
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,400
So we did that four times for 
the first three stents and those

99
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:39,800
paved roads. 
Like my feet. 

100
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:40,600
I don't know about your 
favorite. 

101
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,400
My feet were freaking feeling an
after after just those. 

102
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,000
Yeah, so we did that and then we
would come back after each 

103
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,800
stint. 
We take a shower. 

104
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,000
We get a little food in if we 
were feeling it, you know, and 

105
00:04:53,100 --> 00:04:55,500
little food, being like a 
hard-boiled, egg piece of Quito 

106
00:04:55,500 --> 00:04:58,100
brick and a sausage or 
something. 

107
00:04:58,100 --> 00:05:01,200
We pre-prepped a bunch of 
kielbasa sausages. 

108
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,200
We try and get some sleep for an
hour and a half or so. 

109
00:05:04,500 --> 00:05:06,900
And then we'd wake up at to do 
it again. 

110
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,100
And then it's six, do it again. 
And then at 10 a.m. 

111
00:05:10,100 --> 00:05:15,300
To p.m. 6 p.m. 10 p.m. 
And just repeat repeat repeat at

112
00:05:15,300 --> 00:05:17,900
what point. 
Did you start to like go 

113
00:05:17,900 --> 00:05:24,000
internal, you know, usually for 
me the internal part was around 

114
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,600
2 a.m. 
That's second day Saturday and 

115
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,700
Sunday, morning 2 a.m. 
Because our bodies used to 

116
00:05:28,700 --> 00:05:30,300
sleeping at night that circadian
rhythm. 

117
00:05:30,700 --> 00:05:33,900
And so the 10 p.m. 
Run was, you could push through 

118
00:05:33,900 --> 00:05:37,100
it but then when you woke up, we
had to wake up at 1:30 to be 

119
00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:40,600
ready and it was just like, 
that's when you start actually 

120
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,800
feeling everything and it's just
like, okay, gotta lean into this

121
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,200
thing, you know, and it was 
interesting that you were saying

122
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,000
that. 
Was it your yeah, my or running 

123
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,600
or a ring was saying that during
the night runs you were actually

124
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,000
sleeping with. 
Yeah, interesting. 

125
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:57,800
I think it was. 
I think it was my, I don't know 

126
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,200
if my watch or my ring but one 
of them was definitely off 

127
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,800
because it was And that I was 
sleeping. 

128
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,600
I guess it was my ring. 
That was saying that I was 

129
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,900
sleeping when I was running 
which couldn't be farther from 

130
00:06:07,900 --> 00:06:10,200
that because how definitely not 
a heart rate was up there. 

131
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,100
Yeah. 
Yeah, but the yeah, that was 

132
00:06:13,500 --> 00:06:15,900
it's interesting cuz we're doing
like polyphasic, sleep, the 

133
00:06:15,900 --> 00:06:18,200
whole way through. 
So we would try and sleep for an

134
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,400
hour and a half and then 
recharge get our feet elevated 

135
00:06:21,500 --> 00:06:24,800
improve the blood flow and then 
do it all over again, and I 

136
00:06:24,808 --> 00:06:26,100
don't know about you, but I've 
got terrible feet. 

137
00:06:26,100 --> 00:06:29,100
So my feet, I'm super flat 
footed, overpronate and 

138
00:06:29,100 --> 00:06:30,500
everything that could go wrong 
with a foot. 

139
00:06:30,500 --> 00:06:32,800
I've got that in my foot. 
My feet rather. 

140
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,000
So I was feeling it after I 
mean, shoot the first few months

141
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,300
because that run a mile every 
day, but I don't run for miles 

142
00:06:40,300 --> 00:06:42,700
at a time ever. 
So doing that multiple times 

143
00:06:42,700 --> 00:06:45,200
throughout the course of 48 
Hours was interesting to say the

144
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,300
least, but you seem to be 
holding up pretty well. 

145
00:06:47,300 --> 00:06:50,100
Like your joints and ankles and 
everything seemed to be pretty 

146
00:06:50,100 --> 00:06:54,400
solid, they did. 
And I'll give you this last 

147
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,900
year. 
I ran a alone on flat ground. 

148
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:02,100
And I was, I did a fasted. 
And, as you saw running, We 

149
00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:03,900
really don't need that much 
food, for whatever reason. 

150
00:07:03,900 --> 00:07:06,500
Maybe it's a different energy 
source because it's more aerobic

151
00:07:06,500 --> 00:07:08,700
than anaerobic it, because we 
fast it all Sunday. 

152
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,700
We did. 
And it was pretty easy. 

153
00:07:10,700 --> 00:07:14,100
Yeah, especially when you're 
thinking about, okay, I can 

154
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:16,300
either get some food or I can 
lay down for an extra 10 

155
00:07:16,300 --> 00:07:18,200
minutes. 
Mmm, at that point sleep is 

156
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,700
important, but I did it on my 
own in Tulsa, on flat ground. 

157
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,400
So, when I get here, Roberts 
like, hey, let's run. 

158
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,200
Both of these, you know, get one
mile on each of these paths to 

159
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,400
see what it's like and he takes 
me out there and you These crazy

160
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,300
inclines on that the one that 
cement. 

161
00:07:35,300 --> 00:07:38,100
And then the one that we did on 
the trails again, it was just 

162
00:07:38,100 --> 00:07:41,100
like rocks. 
Yeah, rocks and your its trail 

163
00:07:41,100 --> 00:07:42,500
running. 
So you've got these inclines. 

164
00:07:42,500 --> 00:07:45,400
It's interesting is what Robert 
called her. 

165
00:07:45,700 --> 00:07:47,600
I said treacherous, once he got 
wet. 

166
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,200
But again, it was about 
challenging ourselves and 

167
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,500
Robert, absolutely crushed it 
and like he went at the same 

168
00:07:55,500 --> 00:07:57,400
speed that he would for a 1-mile
run. 

169
00:07:57,700 --> 00:08:01,600
He did that every Four Mile Run 
did not slow down to not. 

170
00:08:01,700 --> 00:08:04,900
Let let up at all. 
Left me in the dust many times 

171
00:08:05,300 --> 00:08:10,700
and so, I just can't say enough 
great things about His nine said

172
00:08:10,700 --> 00:08:14,000
and his resilience or tremendous
but you really don't know how 

173
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,900
tremendous it is until you do 
something like this. 

174
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,400
And I saw you do it first hand. 
I saw you go internal. 

175
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,700
I saw you really push and so to 
anybody who's questioning, if he

176
00:08:23,700 --> 00:08:26,900
is a Savage, if he has a keto 
Savage, he absolutely is. 

177
00:08:26,900 --> 00:08:31,200
And it shows me that you could 
do anything you wanted. 

178
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,500
Like, if you wanted to be an 
ultra-marathoner, you absolutely

179
00:08:33,500 --> 00:08:35,799
could. 
You're just choosing to express 

180
00:08:35,799 --> 00:08:38,600
yourself from a body building 
component for the most part. 

181
00:08:38,900 --> 00:08:41,900
But again, Two mile run for 
tomorrow ruck march. 

182
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:45,500
Like it shows what you're 
capable of and to have that kind

183
00:08:45,500 --> 00:08:47,600
of mindset and then be able to 
apply in business and 

184
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,900
Leadership. 
You're unstoppable, brother, 

185
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,200
more like wise, man. 
I mean, we were talking. 

186
00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:55,500
You get, you said U-turn in 50 
next month. 

187
00:08:55,500 --> 00:08:56,600
Is that what this month this 
month? 

188
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,000
I'll be 50 on the 27th. 
Well, happy early birthday. 

189
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,500
But thanks. 
So you've got like, almost 20 

190
00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:05,200
years on me, man, which is, you 
know, not a trivial amount of 

191
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,900
years and you're out there and 
you're killing it as well. 

192
00:09:07,900 --> 00:09:10,300
I mean, you never once 
complained, you never want 

193
00:09:10,300 --> 00:09:11,800
stops. 
I mean, you're out there 

194
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,800
hustling, man. 
I mean, and there was a few 

195
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,400
times where your hip flexor were
seasoned up and you walked a 

196
00:09:17,408 --> 00:09:21,000
little bit to stretch that out. 
But I Honestly point to many 50 

197
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,800
year olds that was out there 
that would be out there and be 

198
00:09:23,900 --> 00:09:25,200
it capable of doing what you 
were doing. 

199
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,400
Yeah, and that's what it was. 
It was like, okay, even if I 

200
00:09:30,408 --> 00:09:32,300
have to walk to stretch these 
things out. 

201
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,900
It doesn't mean I'm going to 
stop and I walk long enough for 

202
00:09:34,900 --> 00:09:39,200
them to open up and then I go I 
run and then they start locking 

203
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:40,000
up. 
That's fine. 

204
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,500
But you know if I have to crawl,
like I said, if I have to crawl 

205
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:44,300
through the last four miles, 
I'll do it. 

206
00:09:44,300 --> 00:09:47,200
Because we're not, we haven't 
come this far to just stop right

207
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,400
at the precipice. 
Yeah, and that's when we really 

208
00:09:49,500 --> 00:09:51,000
Dig deep. 
And that's when we realize what 

209
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,400
we're made of, it's not always 
going to be easy. 

210
00:09:54,500 --> 00:09:57,200
But nothing in life is and we 
have to make the decision. 

211
00:09:57,500 --> 00:10:00,300
We're paying a price, either way
in anything that we do, whether 

212
00:10:00,300 --> 00:10:03,000
it be the price of mediocrity or
the price of greatness. 

213
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,500
And even in the attempt of great
things, it helps us get to that 

214
00:10:06,500 --> 00:10:09,200
next level. 
So, I was telling you last year 

215
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,000
when I did this, help me Elevate
in business, we look back at 

216
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,000
what we did before. 
And if we Elevate to a higher 

217
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,700
level, like what you've done 
here, will you you've This 

218
00:10:19,700 --> 00:10:21,800
incredible team, you built this,
incredible compound. 

219
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,700
You look back at what you did 
before. 

220
00:10:23,900 --> 00:10:26,600
So, if you're doing a quarter of
a million and then if I'm your 

221
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,800
business coaches, say, oh, we 
just work twice as hard, and 

222
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,100
you're like, well, there's not 
enough hours in the day to work 

223
00:10:31,100 --> 00:10:33,700
twice as hard. 
But when you have better systems

224
00:10:33,700 --> 00:10:36,000
in place, you have a better 
team, you can truly scale. 

225
00:10:36,500 --> 00:10:38,800
Now, you can look back at what 
you were doing before and say, 

226
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:41,400
why was I even doing that? 
Yeah with this. 

227
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,200
It's the same way. 
It makes you look at those areas

228
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,400
where you're like I compromised 
on that or I'd barely check the 

229
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,900
box on that or iPhone this in 
the 4 by 4 by Rt8. 

230
00:10:49,900 --> 00:10:52,200
Help. 
You see all the areas, all the 

231
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,400
pockets of opportunity that 
you're letting go by, and when 

232
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,700
that happens and you know what, 
you're truly capable of, it 

233
00:10:59,700 --> 00:11:03,500
really keeps you from staying 
satisfied with being less than 

234
00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:05,500
what you could be. 
Yeah, I think you know 

235
00:11:05,500 --> 00:11:08,500
perspective in life is 
everything and you know, the 

236
00:11:08,500 --> 00:11:11,200
hardest thing you've ever done 
is always the hardest thing 

237
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,700
you've ever done. 
So, you know, what what I view 

238
00:11:14,700 --> 00:11:18,100
is incredibly challenging. 
Other people may view as trivial

239
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,800
and and vice versa. 
And what people have experienced

240
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,200
in life. 
So pushing yourself outside your

241
00:11:23,208 --> 00:11:25,900
comfort zone and gaining more 
perspective, as to what you're 

242
00:11:25,908 --> 00:11:27,900
truly capable of both physically
and mentally. 

243
00:11:27,900 --> 00:11:31,400
And emotionally makes your 
perspective that much more 

244
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,400
enhanced and it gives you that 
much more, I guess opportunity 

245
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,400
understanding of where you're at
in life and you can kind of 

246
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,600
pick, you know, feel the curtain
back on where you've been 

247
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,500
before. 
And it makes it a trivial in 

248
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:44,800
your own mind at that moment or 
something that seemingly 

249
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,700
insurmountable. 
But with something like this for

250
00:11:46,700 --> 00:11:51,400
instance after about 14 In miles
or so after whatever extent that

251
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,300
was I mean, I'm hurting at that 
point on my knees are hurting, 

252
00:11:54,300 --> 00:11:56,100
my ankles are hurting like 
everything's hurting 

253
00:11:56,900 --> 00:12:00,200
sleep-deprived and a lot of 
people stop when they start 

254
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,500
feeling pain and we were feeling
pain before we ever even hit the

255
00:12:03,500 --> 00:12:06,400
halfway point, but it's like, 
we're like failures not an 

256
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,200
option. 
Like I'm grabbing the crutches 

257
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,100
and hung on a cross, this finish
line for have to. 

258
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:15,100
So when you know that you cannot
back out and you push through 

259
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,700
the it mean, it's like, it's 
incredibly empowering. 

260
00:12:17,700 --> 00:12:21,200
Like when we first started each,
After we started hurting, I 

261
00:12:21,208 --> 00:12:22,800
thought first couple laps is 
brutal. 

262
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,100
Like you. 
And I are both sent both out 

263
00:12:24,100 --> 00:12:27,500
there looking like 90 year olds,
you know, going in Shuffle. 

264
00:12:27,500 --> 00:12:29,800
Yeah, the old man Shuffle going.
The pace of a snail, but then 

265
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,800
after you start warming up a 
little bit joins, Kalitta 

266
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,900
lubricate him. 
You can kind of pick up the pace

267
00:12:33,900 --> 00:12:37,900
and it's a little bit easier, 
but that first, little bit is, 

268
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,200
is brutal. 
And I feel like that is, you 

269
00:12:41,208 --> 00:12:43,400
know, synonymous with most 
things in life, when you're 

270
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,100
doing something new, when you're
doing something outside, your 

271
00:12:45,100 --> 00:12:47,800
comfort zone when you're 
hurting, and when you don't have

272
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,100
the perspective that Little bits
freaking hard, you know, like in

273
00:12:51,100 --> 00:12:53,000
business. 
There's so many hurdles and 

274
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,400
businesslike, like taxes and 
llc's. 

275
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,400
And you know, if you got a food 
product business, get like 

276
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,400
Health Department, there's all 
these things that are hurdles 

277
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,800
that are designed, not designed 
to stop you. 

278
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,200
But definitely act as a way to 
really separate the people that 

279
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,900
want it from those that don't 
exactly. 

280
00:13:07,900 --> 00:13:10,000
But when you're able to push 
through all that and then get to

281
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,400
the other side, it's like start 
building some momentum and then 

282
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,500
when you have the momentum to 
carry you through, Just Keep On 

283
00:13:14,500 --> 00:13:17,100
Truckin, you know, and I feel 
like I don't know what David 

284
00:13:17,100 --> 00:13:19,300
going is original intent was 
when he made this challenge. 

285
00:13:19,500 --> 00:13:23,100
I feel like there's so many, you
know, there's so many, there's 

286
00:13:23,100 --> 00:13:26,400
so many instances in which it 
can be applied to every person's

287
00:13:26,500 --> 00:13:28,500
day-to-day life. 
No matter what they're doing, no

288
00:13:28,508 --> 00:13:31,100
matter where they're at. 
I mean, it's just, it's very 

289
00:13:31,100 --> 00:13:34,200
applicable to everything that 
everyone's doing it absolutely 

290
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:35,600
is. 
And just like you said, when 

291
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,200
there's no other choice, the 
choice is simple. 

292
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,000
We're committed. 
We're doing this. 

293
00:13:39,100 --> 00:13:41,500
So, by hook, or by crook, if 
you're carrying me or I'm 

294
00:13:41,500 --> 00:13:44,900
carrying you, we get there. 
And it's the same thing with 

295
00:13:44,900 --> 00:13:47,800
business with a relationship 
with anything in our lives. 

296
00:13:48,500 --> 00:13:51,200
If we give ourselves. 
The, in the back of our head, 

297
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,200
the idea that? 
Well, if this doesn't work, I 

298
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,800
can always quit. 
Then we will subconsciously. 

299
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,800
Hold ourselves back. 
Demagogue has talked about the 

300
00:13:58,808 --> 00:14:01,000
forty percent rule, where it 
feels like, you want to give up.

301
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,700
And that's where your body, 
actually, when you want to give 

302
00:14:04,700 --> 00:14:07,600
up the most, that's your only at
40% of what you're capable of. 

303
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,300
And my goal is with my clients 
to get them to that 80%, because

304
00:14:11,300 --> 00:14:15,400
there's the 20% of life that we 
can't control whether it be a 

305
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,100
cancer, diagnosis, a death in a 
family, financial ruin, 

306
00:14:18,100 --> 00:14:22,000
etcetera, but Knowing what 
you're capable of and being able

307
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,800
to push pretty close to that 
Max. 

308
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,300
Let you have this adversity, 
kind of bubble, this kind of, 

309
00:14:29,300 --> 00:14:31,900
you know, buffer to let you get 
through the other parts of it. 

310
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,200
And like you said the four by 
four by forty eight for those of

311
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,600
you that don't run. 
I mean, I'm not a runner. 

312
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,300
I have not already enjoy running
at all hate it. 

313
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,600
I do too in the military. 
That was the default. 

314
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:43,600
Nope. 
Whatever is going on. 

315
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,000
Okay, go for a run and I was 
like, all right, you know, we're

316
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,600
just beating our joints up, but 
even if you were able to Workout

317
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,200
for 45 minutes, if you were able
to walk for 45 minutes, if you 

318
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,000
do it on the time hacks, if you 
do it with the sleep 

319
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,700
deprivation, it will show you 
what you're truly capable of and

320
00:14:59,900 --> 00:15:01,800
it will make you tap into things
that you didn't know where you 

321
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,200
in there. 
And the reason why we do that is

322
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,600
because we've never pushed to 
that point. 

323
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,000
We've never been in a place 
where we had to go above and 

324
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,400
beyond and if you're not going 
to do it for you, imagine how 

325
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,000
this will impact the people 
around you, your business, your 

326
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,000
family, your loved ones, your 
friends. 

327
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,600
So what happens is we were 
talking about how The tide that 

328
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,200
rises All Ships. 
What I have found like, even 

329
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:28,600
coaching my clients when I 
elevate a level, it they have no

330
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,800
other option other than to use 
the gravity of that to get up 

331
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:31,600
higher. 
Mmm. 

332
00:15:31,700 --> 00:15:33,100
They know I'm going to call them
on their bullshit. 

333
00:15:33,100 --> 00:15:35,300
They know that I'm going to 
actually say is that true? 

334
00:15:35,300 --> 00:15:37,100
Or did you just go until you hit
adversity? 

335
00:15:37,500 --> 00:15:39,800
Because that's what everybody 
does just like with lifting, 

336
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,400
right? 
You go to that point where it's 

337
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:42,800
like now, it's difficult. 
Okay. 

338
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,000
I've hit failure. 
Do you have it? 

339
00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:47,000
Hmm? 
Focus. 

340
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,100
All of a sudden. 
Oh, you got another up, I'll you

341
00:15:49,100 --> 00:15:51,700
get two more reps. 
You got three more reps now and 

342
00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:54,600
now your form is breaking down. 
So you better quit, but the idea

343
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,100
is if you can get three extra 
reps, each time, hmm. 

344
00:15:58,100 --> 00:16:02,400
Each workout five workouts at a 
week 15 in a month 15 in a week.

345
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,600
What 16 a month. 
That's a lot of progress that 

346
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,500
you can make and that's that 
area that we have to go into and

347
00:16:08,500 --> 00:16:10,100
just lean into and understand 
that. 

348
00:16:10,100 --> 00:16:12,400
That's where we actually get the
most growth. 

349
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,300
Yeah. 
It is crazy. 

350
00:16:14,500 --> 00:16:17,800
How much like before you even 
Reach that halfway point your 

351
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,100
mind is telling you, look, we're
done. 

352
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,800
Your body is telling you, we're 
done like with the forty percent

353
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,300
rule. 
Like what does that defined as 

354
00:16:25,300 --> 00:16:27,500
exactly like. 
Goggins basically says when you 

355
00:16:27,500 --> 00:16:30,200
feeling like quitting, that's 
the only reached 40% of your 

356
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:31,600
true potential is that basically
what he says. 

357
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:33,500
Yeah, and that's basically from 
the military. 

358
00:16:33,500 --> 00:16:35,700
If you've been any military, 
they talk about that, but the 

359
00:16:35,700 --> 00:16:38,200
forty percent rule is like, like
you said when your mind wants to

360
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,100
quit or when your body's hurting
but there's a lot more in there.

361
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:44,300
Mmm. 
And think of it like a defense 

362
00:16:44,300 --> 00:16:45,400
mechanism. 
We're trying to protect 

363
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:46,300
ourselves. 
We're trying. 

364
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,700
And to not get ourselves in a 
place where we're going to be in

365
00:16:48,700 --> 00:16:50,600
danger. 
And I understand that that's 

366
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,400
important from a biological 
standpoint for survival. 

367
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,100
But in the environment that we 
live in today, where we have 

368
00:16:57,100 --> 00:17:00,300
first world problems, like oh my
latte is not hot enough for all 

369
00:17:00,300 --> 00:17:02,800
the Wi-Fi here sucks in the 
grand. 

370
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,599
Scheme of things. 
We need this kick in the ass to 

371
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:05,500
keep us. 
Really honest. 

372
00:17:05,500 --> 00:17:07,500
And ground is back to what's 
truly important. 

373
00:17:07,599 --> 00:17:11,700
Yeah, what's truly a threat was 
truly remarkable. 

374
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,599
And if we don't do this 
consistently, then we get caught

375
00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:18,700
up on social media. 
The Two BS in politics, you 

376
00:17:18,700 --> 00:17:20,400
know, people that are 
complaining about pronouns 

377
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,500
things like that, things that 
are in the grand scheme of 

378
00:17:22,508 --> 00:17:26,000
things that don't really matter.
Yeah, and if we don't start 

379
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,900
looking towards those things, we
will be woefully ill-prepared 

380
00:17:28,900 --> 00:17:31,500
for life when adversity actually
does come in. 

381
00:17:31,900 --> 00:17:35,800
So even with what's going on in 
the world right now, there's a 

382
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,100
lot of stuff that helps people 
kind of quickly realize that 

383
00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:40,200
there's a lot of fluff. 
There's a lot of BS. 

384
00:17:40,300 --> 00:17:42,500
Hmm. 
And if we can live from that 

385
00:17:42,500 --> 00:17:45,700
place of trying to be as 
grounded as we can to reality 

386
00:17:46,700 --> 00:17:49,500
And I always say that people 
always talk about, you know, 

387
00:17:49,500 --> 00:17:52,700
have your why, it's not about 
your why it's about 

388
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:55,800
self-knowledge, because if you 
have a y and you're saying, oh, 

389
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,100
it's this, it's this group or my
family that I'm using. 

390
00:17:58,100 --> 00:18:03,000
As my why, what will happen is? 
If you're not careful your work,

391
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,700
your ass off for this this, why 
these people or this company. 

392
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,300
And then there will be a time 
when you go through some 

393
00:18:09,300 --> 00:18:11,400
hardship and maybe you don't 
feel like you're being 

394
00:18:12,100 --> 00:18:14,600
recognized or appreciated as 
much or loved as much as you 

395
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,300
should and it can turn into this
unnecessary resentment. 

396
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,300
But if you just look at it and 
say I'm doing this to figure out

397
00:18:22,300 --> 00:18:26,000
what I can do, self knowledge 
comes from embracing diversity 

398
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,100
and the more that you know about
yourself and you can be really 

399
00:18:28,100 --> 00:18:30,100
honest. 
We talk to clients, right? 

400
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:32,800
Had that client when you ask 
them. 

401
00:18:32,900 --> 00:18:35,100
Okay, what is the easiest way? 
You're going to self sabotage 

402
00:18:35,100 --> 00:18:37,900
yourself on this goal? 
Whether it be keto, whether it 

403
00:18:37,900 --> 00:18:40,300
be in business, and you just 
have that conversation. 

404
00:18:40,300 --> 00:18:44,000
Now before they get into it and 
now all of a sudden they start 

405
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,600
realizing. 
Oh, yeah. 

406
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,600
This is what I would do. 
And then you have the discussion

407
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,200
early and you take you get in 
front of it and you take all the

408
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,500
strength from it. 
And now, if you're in that 

409
00:18:52,500 --> 00:18:54,400
position, again, you've already 
had the conversation, you've 

410
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,400
already decided again, you 
already committing. 

411
00:18:56,900 --> 00:19:00,800
So now you don't have to wonder 
well, again when I'm tired, I'm 

412
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,300
not going to Quit all my body's 
hurting my going to quit. 

413
00:19:03,700 --> 00:19:05,200
Well, those things are 
inevitable. 

414
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,600
Yeah, whether you quit or not is
on you and then that self 

415
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,100
knowledge comes through 
knowledge of yourself through 

416
00:19:11,100 --> 00:19:13,000
adversity. 
Yeah, when you I mean, you 

417
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,600
really truly do, give yourself 
all the options at the onset. 

418
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,500
Like, you know, if quitting is 
an option, you know, if it's not

419
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,600
and when you know, it's not like
you don't let your mind 

420
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,700
sabotage. 
You like when we were running, 

421
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,800
you know, before we even got the
halfway point, like, this 

422
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,400
freakin sucks. 
I'm hurting. 

423
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,000
You know, why are we? 
In this yada yada yada, but I 

424
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,800
knew I was going to finish it, 
come hell or high water. 

425
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,200
So didn't really matter. 
So there's no benefit in like, 

426
00:19:37,300 --> 00:19:39,500
letting myself become victim to 
those thoughts. 

427
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,800
And then, once you kind of, I 
don't know where that point is 

428
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:43,900
probably a bit different for 
everybody. 

429
00:19:44,300 --> 00:19:48,800
But once you caress that, you 
know, point which for me the 

430
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,900
last probably when I knew there 
was three stents left, like it 

431
00:19:51,908 --> 00:19:55,600
was easy after that when there 
is three stents left the, I 

432
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,500
guess that would be 10 a.m. 10 
a.m. 

433
00:19:57,500 --> 00:19:58,900
To 2 p.m. 
And 6 p.m. 

434
00:19:59,300 --> 00:20:01,100
It's like it's all downhill from
here. 

435
00:20:01,300 --> 00:20:04,200
And the last and I was freaking 
sprinting, you know, like I did 

436
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,800
the most treacherous trail and I
was sprinting the whole way at 

437
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,300
the end and I was like whooping 
and hollering. 

438
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,100
And it mean from a physical 
standpoint. 

439
00:20:13,100 --> 00:20:16,100
My body was the most worn down 
at that point, the most sick to 

440
00:20:16,108 --> 00:20:20,300
bribe the most beaten, but 
mentally, I was on cloud nine 

441
00:20:20,300 --> 00:20:22,500
because it's like, look, it's 
already over and like just 

442
00:20:22,500 --> 00:20:25,800
finish strong and when you do 
that, you can kind of like 

443
00:20:25,900 --> 00:20:28,800
reverse engineer that and apply 
that to the beginning, the 

444
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,600
middle and throughout the end so
that you Hey, look, how you 

445
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,800
feel? 
How you perform is totally 

446
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,800
within your mind. 
And so many people don't do that

447
00:20:37,900 --> 00:20:39,200
and they have this victim 
mentality. 

448
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:40,500
We're talking about that the 
other day, too. 

449
00:20:41,300 --> 00:20:43,900
Like when you have this extreme 
ownership, kind of quote junko 

450
00:20:43,900 --> 00:20:47,000
there like you feel much more 
empowered and some people that 

451
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,300
they find that scary because 
like they have no one to point 

452
00:20:49,300 --> 00:20:52,300
two, but when you have this 
extreme ownership mentality and 

453
00:20:52,300 --> 00:20:55,300
it's always on you and you 
accept full responsibility in my

454
00:20:55,300 --> 00:20:57,200
mind and in your mind, that's 
that's empowering. 

455
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,100
Because whether you fail or you 
succeed, it's always your fault.

456
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,900
And I feel like that's, I mean, 
that's liberating my opinion. 

457
00:21:04,300 --> 00:21:07,000
It absolutely is for me. 
The minute that I stopped trying

458
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,700
to wait for somebody to save me 
was when I had to save myself. 

459
00:21:09,700 --> 00:21:11,100
Hmm. 
So people don't need somebody to

460
00:21:11,100 --> 00:21:13,000
come save them. 
So maybe we don't need something

461
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,900
outside of us. 
We need to take ownership of who

462
00:21:15,900 --> 00:21:18,200
we are and tap into that 
potential. 

463
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,300
And the way that we tap into 
that is by pushing ourselves and

464
00:21:20,300 --> 00:21:23,400
do it hard should, and this is a
perfect opportunity to do it. 

465
00:21:24,300 --> 00:21:26,200
So many times in the victim 
mentality. 

466
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,500
And, and listen, I understand if
you're in a place of morning, 

467
00:21:29,500 --> 00:21:31,600
that's fine. 
There's a For that. 

468
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,600
But eventually, you know in your
mind that you're just sitting 

469
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,400
here feeding that that you're 
just sitting here wallowing in 

470
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,000
that and now you're not doing 
enough to push you forward and 

471
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,500
if you aren't able to be aware 
of that, if you don't have that 

472
00:21:44,500 --> 00:21:48,300
self knowledge, then again that 
becomes your, your identity 

473
00:21:48,700 --> 00:21:52,600
being a victim as an identity. 
And now you put that out there 

474
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,700
signaling on social media. 
So all of a sudden, if you do 

475
00:21:55,700 --> 00:21:57,900
happen to have a good day in, 
this is made like, comment. 

476
00:21:57,900 --> 00:22:00,000
So we'll oh mr. 
Pessimistic. 

477
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,100
Mr. Sarcastic, mr. 
Right? 

478
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,300
Hate Mondays and I live for 
Friday's now that paint you into

479
00:22:05,300 --> 00:22:07,600
a corner. 
Hmm, intellectually. 

480
00:22:08,100 --> 00:22:10,400
So even if you wanted to break 
out of that even if you were 

481
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,100
feeling more empowered you 
wouldn't do it because you would

482
00:22:13,100 --> 00:22:16,700
allow the opinions of others 
that you've pretty much created 

483
00:22:16,700 --> 00:22:18,900
on your own. 
Keep you there and all of a 

484
00:22:18,900 --> 00:22:22,300
sudden people get stuck in that 
I called the adversity, scale. 

485
00:22:22,300 --> 00:22:24,100
Right? 
Like the worst thing you've ever

486
00:22:24,100 --> 00:22:27,400
done in your life is a 10, the 
hardest thing you've ever done 

487
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:31,100
and then like having on our 
through 0, as you were saying, 

488
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,800
If you can click that scale up 
little by little, it makes you 

489
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,700
really aware of what you're 
hitting. 

490
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:42,900
But also if you said yourself, 
okay, the four by four by forty,

491
00:22:42,900 --> 00:22:45,500
eight was most difficult thing. 
I've done in my life and then 

492
00:22:45,500 --> 00:22:47,900
we're having a conversation or 
you're dealing with a, like a 

493
00:22:47,900 --> 00:22:50,900
retailer or whatever. 
It's going to, you know, it's a 

494
00:22:50,900 --> 00:22:52,200
pain in the ass. 
But if you look at it, you're 

495
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,700
like, on the grand scheme of 
things, honestly. 

496
00:22:53,700 --> 00:22:55,600
What is this? 
Yeah, compared to the four by 

497
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,100
four by forty eight. 
This is like a 2 or a 3. 

498
00:22:58,100 --> 00:23:00,300
Like this conversation will be 
done in 45 minutes or whatever 

499
00:23:00,300 --> 00:23:03,800
it is and You can move on to the
next thing and with that 

500
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,900
knowledge again. 
It's in bolting it help. 

501
00:23:05,900 --> 00:23:08,500
It helps you embolden you and 
helps you move forward 

502
00:23:08,900 --> 00:23:10,900
aggressively because you know, 
the end result is still going to

503
00:23:10,908 --> 00:23:12,400
be what you want. 
Right? 

504
00:23:12,900 --> 00:23:17,000
And with that knowledge. 
Like how many people would be 

505
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,600
even more Resolute? 
Be even more committed. 

506
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,900
Be even more aggressive towards 
the things that they want, if 

507
00:23:22,900 --> 00:23:26,100
they knew that, if they could 
just push this one point, it 

508
00:23:26,100 --> 00:23:27,700
would all be downhill. 
Mmm. 

509
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,800
And the reality is, that's how 
life is. 

510
00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:33,400
Yeah. 
So if you Belabor the point. 

511
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,500
If you drag your feet, you're 
actually making it harder on 

512
00:23:36,500 --> 00:23:38,200
yourself. 
If you have your foot on the 

513
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,100
brake and trying to push the 
gas. 

514
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:41,800
You're literally holding 
yourself back, you're shooting 

515
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,200
yourself in the foot. 
So, if that's the understanding 

516
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,500
that you have from doing hard 
things, then you just have to be

517
00:23:48,500 --> 00:23:51,000
able to step away and say, I 
want to have hindsight. 

518
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,700
Now, I want to realize that in a
few hours. 

519
00:23:53,700 --> 00:23:56,000
I can get a warm shower. 
I can get some food and go have 

520
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,500
some Mexican food to someone, 
right? 

521
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,800
And I can lay down for more than
an hour at a time. 

522
00:24:00,100 --> 00:24:02,700
And with that knowledge, it. 
These, I call them micro 

523
00:24:02,700 --> 00:24:05,000
adversities, but other people in
the military called the micro 

524
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,200
goals. 
So for us, it was like, you 

525
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,200
know, how many more laps do we 
have to do and they're like, 

526
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,600
okay, I've got five more laps. 
I got four more laps. 

527
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,000
I've got three more laps, two 
more laps. 

528
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,100
And so, it's just about not 
thinking how hard it's going to 

529
00:24:18,100 --> 00:24:20,400
be in the long run. 
It's about finishing this 

530
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,100
breath. 
This rep, this step. 

531
00:24:23,100 --> 00:24:25,100
Mmm, and they just keep doing 
it. 

532
00:24:25,300 --> 00:24:26,300
Yeah. 
I mean, when I'm doing a 

533
00:24:26,300 --> 00:24:27,900
competition print, that's 
exactly what I did. 

534
00:24:27,900 --> 00:24:29,600
Like I break it down. 
Like that was the think about it

535
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,300
in terms of, hey, look I've got 
six more months. 

536
00:24:31,500 --> 00:24:33,500
Of this like that's, that's the 
billeting. 

537
00:24:33,500 --> 00:24:36,800
Oh, yeah, you know, but if I 
look at, hey look, one more rep,

538
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,200
one more meal, one more, 
whatever and you break it down 

539
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,900
that microbes stance. 
I mean, it's very, very doable, 

540
00:24:45,100 --> 00:24:50,000
you know, and at that point the 
the factor like the single most 

541
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,400
definitive fact that determines 
those that succeed in those that

542
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,300
don't is just consistency. 
And that if I was to pick one 

543
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,500
superhero, Trader - it's that 
I'm a freaking stubborn, son of 

544
00:24:59,500 --> 00:25:02,000
a big bust. 
You something. 

545
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,200
I'm gonna freakin do something 
no matter what, and that's why I

546
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,300
like competition, perhaps, 
because they are very long there

547
00:25:08,300 --> 00:25:11,900
for 26 months long. 
And at no point in an entire 

548
00:25:11,900 --> 00:25:15,400
prep, is it like incredibly 
daunting and challenging like, 

549
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,900
it's a workout. 
It's a meal, you know, it's 

550
00:25:17,900 --> 00:25:20,800
whatever. 
But it's like the the hard part 

551
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,900
is doing it over the course of 
that four to six months span 

552
00:25:22,900 --> 00:25:26,100
most people falter because they 
get bored with it. 

553
00:25:26,100 --> 00:25:29,500
They want to return to some 
degree of normalcy, and they 

554
00:25:29,500 --> 00:25:32,700
don't have that staying power, 
but I feel like Consistency and 

555
00:25:32,700 --> 00:25:35,300
disciplined towards the long 
game towards that staying power.

556
00:25:35,300 --> 00:25:36,800
Just chipping away at every 
single day. 

557
00:25:37,100 --> 00:25:38,700
That is what makes people 
succeed. 

558
00:25:38,700 --> 00:25:40,800
That's true in business. 
That's true in relationships. 

559
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,100
That's true and fitness as true 
and everything in life and it's 

560
00:25:44,500 --> 00:25:46,900
the analogy that I use is if 
we're doing a bench press and I 

561
00:25:46,900 --> 00:25:49,400
have my arms locked out. 
I can hold the weight there for 

562
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,800
a long time because I'm using 
the rest of my structure of my 

563
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,800
body to take a lot of that 
Berry. 

564
00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:57,600
So that's what consistency 
that's what discipline does. 

565
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,200
It takes all the emotion out of 
it takes all the effort out of 

566
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,600
it. 
But if I'm Having to continually

567
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,700
muscle my way through with 
artificial motivation and trying

568
00:26:05,700 --> 00:26:08,400
to tell myself. 
All these other lies that I'm 

569
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,400
corroborating in my own mind or 
making these, make a make a deal

570
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,100
with myself. 
If I do this and then I can do 

571
00:26:15,100 --> 00:26:16,800
this. 
What you're doing is you're 

572
00:26:16,808 --> 00:26:19,900
actually making it harder on 
yourself unnecessarily, but 

573
00:26:19,900 --> 00:26:22,900
again, taking the emotion out of
it emotions, assassinate the 

574
00:26:22,900 --> 00:26:26,000
truth, being consistent with 
what's going on in the people 

575
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,600
that I find that are the most 
triggered by the word motivation

576
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,300
or triggered by the word 
discipline are people that lack.

577
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,300
Lack discipline and lack 
motivation. 

578
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,300
So don't even try to be 
motivated, try to be 

579
00:26:36,300 --> 00:26:38,500
disciplined. 
Try to be consistent, and those 

580
00:26:38,500 --> 00:26:41,300
routines eventually create 
gravity, and they eventually 

581
00:26:41,300 --> 00:26:44,100
move you through. 
So you're already moving in this

582
00:26:44,100 --> 00:26:45,800
direction like pedaling the 
bike. 

583
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,500
Hmm, at my little story about 
when he was teaching his 

584
00:26:48,500 --> 00:26:50,000
daughter, Bella how to ride a 
bike. 

585
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,900
And he would push her and she 
would start riding and she was 

586
00:26:53,900 --> 00:26:57,100
start pedaling. 
But then when she saw that she 

587
00:26:57,100 --> 00:26:59,500
was moving, she was stopped 
pedaling and just, you know, try

588
00:26:59,500 --> 00:27:02,800
to enjoy the experience. 
But every time she would stop 

589
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,700
pedaling, she would fall down 
and every time he would push 

590
00:27:05,700 --> 00:27:09,100
her, he was a keep pedaling. 
Keep moving forward, keep 

591
00:27:09,100 --> 00:27:11,800
feeding into it. 
So when business and anything in

592
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,700
life, even when things are going
well, we need to keep pedaling 

593
00:27:14,700 --> 00:27:17,400
medium pushing because that 
creates that momentum. 

594
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,200
So when we do get stuck in the 
mud for a minute, the momentum 

595
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:24,500
from the From the routine from 
the consistency pushes us 

596
00:27:24,500 --> 00:27:26,500
through and now we can attack it
again. 

597
00:27:26,500 --> 00:27:30,000
More aggressively, even if we 
get stuck for just a moment. 

598
00:27:30,300 --> 00:27:35,000
I think Kevin non-negotiables in
your life is it takes the 

599
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,900
guesswork out of it? 
It removes that from Weighing on

600
00:27:37,900 --> 00:27:41,300
your mental bandwidth. 
Like, for me working at is a 

601
00:27:41,300 --> 00:27:44,800
good thing working at is, always
a good thing, you know, eating 

602
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,500
healthy is always a good thing. 
There's no downside that comes 

603
00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:50,900
from eating healthy, you know, 
doing this. 

604
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:55,200
These things and having them as 
non-negotiables is key to my 

605
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,200
success. 
I look at Crystal. 

606
00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,100
She's I don't know. 
I mean 32 weeks pregnant as of 

607
00:28:00,100 --> 00:28:04,800
Wednesday and most people I 
would say they use something 

608
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,500
like that. 
That's not a normal thing. 

609
00:28:06,500 --> 00:28:09,900
Like being pregnant as this, you
know, get out of jail free card.

610
00:28:09,900 --> 00:28:13,400
So to speak of like, okay, it's 
okay for me to cheat on my diet.

611
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,400
It's okay for me to slack up on 
my training. 

612
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,500
It's okay for me to stop doing 
all these things that have led 

613
00:28:18,500 --> 00:28:21,700
to my success thus far in life, 
because I've got this, You know 

614
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,300
extraneous circumstance. 
That's that's only temporary. 

615
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,900
But I've been super proud of her
because she's maintained her. 

616
00:28:27,900 --> 00:28:29,800
Dad told me through, she's 
maintained her training, the 

617
00:28:29,808 --> 00:28:31,600
whole way through. 
She's Army her pregnancies been 

618
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,900
a breeze, honestly, and I think 
it's because she's leaning to 

619
00:28:34,900 --> 00:28:36,800
those things that have brought 
her on the success that she's 

620
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,600
experienced thus far, and the 
same is true with you. 

621
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:44,700
The same is true with me, like 
people experience success often 

622
00:28:44,700 --> 00:28:48,400
times and then they they use 
that moment that hide it there 

623
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,100
on as a reason to stop. 
In the things that brought them 

624
00:28:52,100 --> 00:28:53,800
to that successful spot to begin
with. 

625
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,200
And for me, it's like I probably
don't celebrate the wins as much

626
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,800
as I should because I'm always 
moving on to the next thing and 

627
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,700
staying, you know aggressive, 
but that's what brings me the 

628
00:29:03,700 --> 00:29:05,300
excitement's, what brings me 
satisfaction. 

629
00:29:05,300 --> 00:29:08,600
It's not so much that the act of
winning are succeeding so much. 

630
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:13,300
It is the journey to get there. 
And when you forego that to the 

631
00:29:13,300 --> 00:29:16,700
point that you're forgoing, what
brought you there to begin with,

632
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,800
you are literally failing you 
will. 

633
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,800
You will not play the long game.
You will not Last because you're

634
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,800
you're you're sacrificing the 
character traits that brought 

635
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:29,000
that success to begin with and 
to brag on your wife a little 

636
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,300
bit. 
She was out with us yesterday in

637
00:29:31,300 --> 00:29:33,900
the rain at 10 a.m. 2 p.m. 
And 6 p.m. 

638
00:29:34,900 --> 00:29:37,800
And she wasn't running guys. 
I'm not saying that but she was 

639
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,500
walking. 
Yeah, the whole time. 

640
00:29:39,900 --> 00:29:42,500
Yeah, so she was there as an act
of solidarity and she didn't 

641
00:29:42,500 --> 00:29:46,100
need to be out there. 
I mean, she probably got 46 

642
00:29:46,100 --> 00:29:48,200
miles on her own just walking 
around, you know, and that was 

643
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,800
great for her and the baby and 
just like you said, the Ernie is

644
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,100
guaranteed. 
There's going to be a journey. 

645
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:59,100
The destination is not, but if 
you can feed into that Journey 

646
00:29:59,100 --> 00:30:02,700
to the best of your capacity and
ask yourself, what is the 

647
00:30:02,700 --> 00:30:06,000
courageous decision right now? 
If you elevate that, if you use 

648
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,400
that as your limits test, the 
courageous decision would be to 

649
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,400
eat properly here. 
The courageous decision would be

650
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,900
to work out even if I don't feel
like it. 

651
00:30:13,100 --> 00:30:16,100
The courageous decision is to 
admit to my wife or to my loved 

652
00:30:16,100 --> 00:30:18,300
ones. 
Hey, I messed up and I 

653
00:30:18,308 --> 00:30:20,900
apologize, you know, I was in a 
bad place, whatever it is. 

654
00:30:21,500 --> 00:30:24,200
We're being honest with yourself
and saying, yeah, you know, you 

655
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,100
slapped on that. 
That courageous decision is what

656
00:30:27,100 --> 00:30:29,500
allows you to make the right 
decision, even when you don't 

657
00:30:29,500 --> 00:30:32,200
feel like doing it, like all 
things. 

658
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,800
It's about what's the courageous
decision? 

659
00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:37,700
What is the quality over 
quantity idea here? 

660
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,400
What would be the most quality 
use of my time right now? 

661
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,000
Hmm. 
A my 8020 in there. 

662
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,200
So I'm using Parkinson's law. 
Am I using Hick's law? 

663
00:30:44,300 --> 00:30:45,600
Am I trying to use Occam's 
razor? 

664
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,100
My trying to simplify things. 
Am I trying to align things. 

665
00:30:49,100 --> 00:30:51,200
So that now, when I move 
forward, I can just do all these

666
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,000
things in order as opposed to 
running way over here, dealing 

667
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,800
with this. 
And now having to turn 180 run 

668
00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:00,000
over here wasting more time in 
transit that actually doing 

669
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,500
things with it. 
So that idea and that commitment

670
00:31:03,500 --> 00:31:05,600
to the journey makes the 
destination a foregone 

671
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,900
conclusion. 
But if you don't come at it with

672
00:31:07,900 --> 00:31:10,700
that idea, if you don't come at 
it with this understanding that 

673
00:31:11,100 --> 00:31:14,400
it is going to take time, but 
anything worth doing anything in

674
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,100
your life, that is worth doing, 
takes time. 

675
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,800
It takes effort. 
And if you think about in your 

676
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,600
life, any time when you felt 
really like proud, it's because 

677
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,400
you went through something 
difficult is because you were 

678
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,500
pushed if you have that. 
Coach or that leader. 

679
00:31:27,300 --> 00:31:30,000
The demands more of you. 
And says, I'm being hard on you 

680
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,000
because I know that you're 
capable of more. 

681
00:31:32,100 --> 00:31:35,400
Yeah, you may not like him at 
the time you don't have to. 

682
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,300
But at the end of the day when 
you get to that place and you're

683
00:31:39,300 --> 00:31:40,800
like, wow, I'm so glad we got 
there. 

684
00:31:41,100 --> 00:31:43,000
It's amazing. 
Once you're at the top of the 

685
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,500
mountain, all the hardship that 
you went through to get there 

686
00:31:45,500 --> 00:31:47,500
all the adversity. 
You went through becomes 

687
00:31:47,500 --> 00:31:49,200
irrelevant. 
You don't even care about it. 

688
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,400
We're sorts a day, but I'm so 
glad that we did it. 

689
00:31:53,100 --> 00:31:55,200
Yeah, and we're going to be sore
anyway. 

690
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:59,000
Yeah, totally and I feel like, 
you know, there's so many points

691
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,400
in life so many points in the 
acute and in the macro The 

692
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:07,000
Chronic where it's like you have
the choice to push yourself in 

693
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,700
Excel and do that hard 
challenging thing or not. 

694
00:32:09,700 --> 00:32:13,900
But the moment you decide not to
it becomes exponentially easier 

695
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,900
to not to just say no to it 
again and again and again like 

696
00:32:17,900 --> 00:32:21,200
for me personally, my goal 
throughout this was to not walk 

697
00:32:21,300 --> 00:32:23,600
at any one point. 
Like my goal was to be able to 

698
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:29,000
say, hey look, I ran 50 miles. .
Never once walked and nothing 

699
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,600
against people, that do while 
you walk some because you had 

700
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:35,200
some hip flexor issues, but for 
me, I knew that if I had want it

701
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:39,400
have been easier to justify 
walking later, you know, and so 

702
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:40,800
many people have that in so many
ways. 

703
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,000
They would have been easier for 
us to say, let's let's, let's 

704
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,500
sleep a little bit longer and 
start a little bit later. 

705
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,200
Yeah, if we if we had allowed 
her substitute at once, but we 

706
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,300
didn't, you know, so like the 
moments people allow themselves 

707
00:32:54,300 --> 00:32:59,700
to give in I need a weakness or 
a Temptation or say no to the 

708
00:32:59,700 --> 00:33:01,800
hard conversation, that needs to
be hand. 

709
00:33:01,900 --> 00:33:04,000
It becomes so much easier to 
continue to do that. 

710
00:33:04,100 --> 00:33:07,100
And I mean, everything 
compounds, the good compounds, 

711
00:33:07,100 --> 00:33:09,700
the bad compound. 
So if you if you start veering 

712
00:33:09,700 --> 00:33:13,600
off a path that is negative or 
easier over simplified or not. 

713
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,200
The right path, you're 
compounding. 

714
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,500
Effect of that is going to be 
that much harder to break free 

715
00:33:19,500 --> 00:33:22,400
of as time goes on. 
And that's the key. 

716
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,100
The way that we conduct 
ourselves in the face of 

717
00:33:24,100 --> 00:33:26,400
adversity is an indication. 
Of how we do everything else in 

718
00:33:26,408 --> 00:33:27,300
our life. 
Hmm? 

719
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,100
And like you said, if I 
compromise once, if I cheat on 

720
00:33:31,100 --> 00:33:34,500
my diet that makes it easier for
me to cheat on my wife. 

721
00:33:34,500 --> 00:33:38,400
Hmm. 
So if we decide to compromise at

722
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,400
the first sign of adversity that
bleeds over into everything else

723
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,800
that we do in our life and it's 
like well, yeah, no sure no 

724
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,100
problem. 
And then like you said that 

725
00:33:47,100 --> 00:33:51,600
becomes this Cascade where now 
all of a sudden, you know your 

726
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,100
center from the TV all day, 
you're eating crap food. 

727
00:33:55,500 --> 00:33:58,100
You feel horrible and you have 
the audacity to wonder. 

728
00:33:58,100 --> 00:33:59,200
Why? 
Because you have moved your 

729
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,300
body. 
You haven't fed it properly and 

730
00:34:01,300 --> 00:34:03,200
probably the stuff that you're 
putting into your mind at that 

731
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,800
moment. 
There's times to have like, you 

732
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,000
know decompression, you know, 
kind of a reboot. 

733
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,199
That's fine. 
But in the end. 

734
00:34:11,900 --> 00:34:14,100
People always thought that it 
was lack of information that 

735
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:17,600
kept people, you know, stupid we
see now that having more 

736
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,000
information is not the answer. 
If more information was the 

737
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,000
answer, then everybody would be 
a billionaire and have six pack 

738
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,600
abs right now because the 
internet and I think you see 

739
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,300
that that's not the case. 
If anything we've actually 

740
00:34:28,300 --> 00:34:32,000
devolved in a lot of ways, we've
actually regressed because now 

741
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,300
people are looking for somebody 
else to give them this 

742
00:34:35,300 --> 00:34:38,500
artificial pacification that's 
artificial motivation for a few 

743
00:34:38,500 --> 00:34:40,600
moments. 
Like we were talking about like 

744
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,400
the tweets that I I try to make 
them very simple and for 

745
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,800
whatever reason people like that
bite-sized, nugget of, you know,

746
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,900
it makes me feel inspired. 
But I'm afraid that they don't 

747
00:34:49,900 --> 00:34:52,000
see the underlying stuff. 
I am afraid. 

748
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,400
They don't see what got me to 
that point to say that. 

749
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,200
It's so succinctly. 
And if you don't understand 

750
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,100
that, then you're basically 
just, you know, getting this 

751
00:35:00,500 --> 00:35:02,200
artificial sound bite. 
That makes you feel good for a 

752
00:35:02,207 --> 00:35:04,200
few moments. 
And then moving on to the next 

753
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,000
thing. 
If? 

754
00:35:09,900 --> 00:35:12,300
If we can just understand that 
they're going to be times when 

755
00:35:12,300 --> 00:35:14,500
we don't feel great. 
Even if we're doing everything 

756
00:35:14,500 --> 00:35:20,600
properly journal and our life 
people talk about it's the five 

757
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,600
Psych the five steps of of 
ownership or the five steps of 

758
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,800
acceptance and it goes denial. 
Something bad happens, 

759
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,800
adversity, integer life you go 
into denial. 

760
00:35:29,500 --> 00:35:33,600
Then you go into this place of 
anger and anger is based on 

761
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,600
resentment because of what you 
saw that you could have done, 

762
00:35:36,900 --> 00:35:40,400
you have remorse. 
Then you the third phase is 

763
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,600
you're there and all of a sudden
now you're trying to bargain in 

764
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:46,000
some capacity. 
And a lot of times people go 

765
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:50,000
into a micro cycle of just that.
Denial. 

766
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:54,200
Anger bargaining. 
Back into anger again because 

767
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,400
you don't want to accept it back
into bargaining back into 

768
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,600
denial. 
And if you look at that, all 

769
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:02,500
those are basically the victim 
cycle, once we're through the 

770
00:36:02,500 --> 00:36:06,300
place of actually stopping this 
understanding and knowing that I

771
00:36:06,300 --> 00:36:08,800
can't make a bargain with 
anybody to do this. 

772
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:13,100
Then you go into depression and 
then you go into acceptance. 

773
00:36:14,100 --> 00:36:16,500
So there's going to be times. 
Even with successful people. 

774
00:36:16,500 --> 00:36:18,300
I've had clients that are 
incredibly successful in there. 

775
00:36:18,308 --> 00:36:22,000
Like, man, I just feel really 
depressed and it's because all 

776
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,200
these Cycles. 
Are going on extraneously, 

777
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:27,700
whether they're aware of it or 
not. 

778
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,800
So from one of them, incredibly 
successful amazing business 

779
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,800
making all this money and then 
they had a child. 

780
00:36:36,700 --> 00:36:40,100
And that for him was the 
conclusion that he didn't have 

781
00:36:40,100 --> 00:36:43,400
any opportunity to bail out. 
He couldn't just quit the 

782
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,700
business or get divorced and go 
back that backpack through 

783
00:36:46,700 --> 00:36:47,900
Europe. 
Hmm. 

784
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,400
And even though he says I felt 
really guilty for feeling like 

785
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:51,900
that. 
You know, I should I have all 

786
00:36:51,900 --> 00:36:53,600
these things going on. 
That everybody would love to 

787
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,500
have on the outside. 
I look very successful. 

788
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,800
But that's what you see with 
successful people is they're 

789
00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,600
going through this place of 
acceptance. 

790
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,500
So if we can just sit with that 
and understand, This is just an 

791
00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:07,600
emotion. 
This will pass and Zen. 

792
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,800
They say that when you meditate 
when a thought, enters your 

793
00:37:10,808 --> 00:37:14,000
mind, if you stop and give it t,
it will stay there and it will 

794
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,400
proliferate, but if you just let
it come and go. 

795
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:20,400
So again, just being okay with 
the emotion saying, I don't feel

796
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:21,600
great right now. 
That's okay. 

797
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,300
I don't have to try to get on 
Tick-Tock to to give myself a 

798
00:37:24,300 --> 00:37:26,300
dopamine head. 
I don't have to eat some shit 

799
00:37:26,300 --> 00:37:27,800
food to give me an insulin 
Spike. 

800
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,200
And if you're not sure if that's
really hitting you right now, 

801
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,800
ask yourself right now. 
If you're feeling this emotion, 

802
00:37:35,100 --> 00:37:37,700
ask yourself, where is the 
evidence that this is harming 

803
00:37:37,700 --> 00:37:40,700
me? 
Hmm, unless you have like a 

804
00:37:40,700 --> 00:37:44,000
suicidal ideology or you have 
like self, you know, harming 

805
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,700
Tendencies it won't, and then 
you can just understand it for 

806
00:37:47,700 --> 00:37:50,600
what it is and accept it for 
what it is without emotion, 

807
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,600
without expectation without 
desire. 

808
00:37:53,100 --> 00:37:56,200
And then eventually it will flow
through you and it will go away.

809
00:37:57,500 --> 00:37:59,700
And again, that's another 
excellent example of what we 

810
00:37:59,707 --> 00:38:04,100
found for the 4, by 4 by 48. 
If I'm resisting this the whole 

811
00:38:04,100 --> 00:38:06,400
time, God this sucks God, I'm 
cold, man. 

812
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:07,600
It's way. 
It's raining again. 

813
00:38:08,500 --> 00:38:11,100
Doesn't matter. 
Me resisting against it, makes 

814
00:38:11,100 --> 00:38:13,900
it difficult. 
So having this radical almost 

815
00:38:13,900 --> 00:38:15,600
aggressive acceptance of 
everything. 

816
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:16,700
I say. 
Yes. 

817
00:38:16,700 --> 00:38:18,800
Now, what does that do? 
And those five steps that we 

818
00:38:18,808 --> 00:38:22,400
just talked about, I go from 
skipping denial. 

819
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,800
Skipping anger, skipping 
everything. 

820
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,500
And I go right to. 
This is the reality, I accept it

821
00:38:28,500 --> 00:38:31,000
for what it is, and the sooner 
that we can get the data to that

822
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,500
reality. 
The sooner we can actually take 

823
00:38:33,500 --> 00:38:35,900
action to change it. 
But if I'm fighting against it, 

824
00:38:35,900 --> 00:38:38,600
the whole time, if I have a flat
tire and I'm like, I can't 

825
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:43,300
believe this is happening and 
now I'm pissed off and I'm you 

826
00:38:43,300 --> 00:38:44,500
know, yelling and screaming 
again. 

827
00:38:44,500 --> 00:38:45,900
What am I doing? 
I mean, I'm in the dial, 

828
00:38:46,900 --> 00:38:49,700
eventually have to good get to 
the point to realize don't make 

829
00:38:49,700 --> 00:38:51,700
a phone call. 
Do I start changing my own Tire?

830
00:38:51,700 --> 00:38:54,500
What do I do? 
All that time in between there 

831
00:38:54,500 --> 00:38:56,800
were wasting. 
Yeah, and if you look at your 

832
00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:00,800
life, there's a lot of mental 
bandwidth that we waste a lot of

833
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,900
emotional bandwidth that we 
waste in the process of trying 

834
00:39:03,900 --> 00:39:06,600
to deny the reality that book 
that is right before us. 

835
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,400
Yeah, I think you know, like not
even listen. 

836
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,600
This is a business owner, but I 
think in owning a business that 

837
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,600
has employees. 
It has a physical product that 

838
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,300
has shipping and Logistics and 
customer service and all that 

839
00:39:18,300 --> 00:39:23,100
stuff. 
I've learned to think ahead. 

840
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,500
On a level that it just it's 
comical how crazy for him to 

841
00:39:26,500 --> 00:39:30,400
think ahead and have to imagine 
all the worst-case scenarios and

842
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,800
then plan accordingly, and have 
a contingency plan in place for 

843
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,500
everything that possibly can 
happen. 

844
00:39:34,900 --> 00:39:39,000
And the amount of times that it 
actually happens that those 

845
00:39:39,500 --> 00:39:42,300
contingency plans have to be put
into it into effect because 

846
00:39:42,300 --> 00:39:45,200
something does like the random 
things that you would never 

847
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,000
expect to happen. 
Happen to me all the time, and 

848
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,100
it's not like I've got bad luck,
you know? 

849
00:39:49,100 --> 00:39:51,300
Because I don't believe in bad 
luck like you make your own 

850
00:39:51,300 --> 00:39:53,200
look, if something happens, it's
outside. 

851
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,000
Plan, it's my fault. 
Even if it's not my doing, it's 

852
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,500
always my fault. 
And when you do that, your 

853
00:39:59,500 --> 00:40:02,700
ability to plan accordingly, 
plan ahead and then be at peace 

854
00:40:02,700 --> 00:40:06,400
with the outcome is so much 
better than if I was to just, 

855
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,900
you know, have this. 
Oh, woe is me victim mentality 

856
00:40:10,500 --> 00:40:14,800
and then because I've planned 
ahead and my ability to not go 

857
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,800
into denial and go through those
five phases because I've already

858
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:22,400
planned for that, you know, 
adverse thing happening is just 

859
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,200
much better. 
I've got a A hedge against all 

860
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,000
the - vets and you know, 
sometimes I don't plan for 

861
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:30,000
something like Something's 
Happened outside of my out of my

862
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,200
knowledge, but that's not 24 
growth right there. 

863
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,800
It's an opportunity to know. 
Okay, next time I need to plan 

864
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:39,100
for this because this is now 
possibility and that can be 

865
00:40:39,100 --> 00:40:41,000
applied to everybody whether 
they own a business or not. 

866
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,200
Because everybody goes through 
things and that aren't 

867
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,600
unexpected that are unplanned 
but it amazes me. 

868
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:51,200
How many people have these 
unexpected, you know, extraneous

869
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,100
circumstances come into their 
life and they just That ruined 

870
00:40:54,100 --> 00:40:56,600
their life. 
Like they have a bad day and 

871
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,400
then just has this - cascading 
effects. 

872
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,700
It just continues to compound 
and create a worse day. 

873
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,400
But I mean like they is I mean 
the day is going to happen. 

874
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:06,500
The 24 hours are going to 
revolve whether you want it to 

875
00:41:06,500 --> 00:41:10,300
or not and life is finite. 
The fact that you were breathing

876
00:41:10,300 --> 00:41:12,000
and listen to this podcast right
now. 

877
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:17,100
Puts you in the top 1%. 
So to think negatively towards 

878
00:41:17,100 --> 00:41:18,800
anything. 
It's happening in your, you 

879
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,700
know, frail little life is just 
totally in conducive to any 

880
00:41:22,700 --> 00:41:25,000
amount of Positivity or success 
that you could ever see or 

881
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,100
experience. 
So taking everything as it comes

882
00:41:28,100 --> 00:41:30,200
running with it, making the most
of it not having a victim 

883
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,900
mentality, not going into 
denial, not going into this - 

884
00:41:33,900 --> 00:41:36,900
cascading thought process is so 
key. 

885
00:41:36,900 --> 00:41:40,900
And I feel like owning a 
business is the vehicle that 

886
00:41:40,900 --> 00:41:43,700
allowed me to figure out who the
hell I am as a person and how I 

887
00:41:43,700 --> 00:41:46,600
need to function as a 
contributing member to society. 

888
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,700
And that vehicle be very 
different for lots of different 

889
00:41:48,700 --> 00:41:51,800
people based off of their life 
and what they're doing, but 

890
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,300
everybody owes it to Selves to 
figure out what the hell that 

891
00:41:55,300 --> 00:41:57,800
vehicle is. 
It needs to be, and then go full

892
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,400
bore into it with everything. 
They've got that's it. 

893
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:04,100
And the beauty of adversity, is 
it my tedx? 

894
00:42:04,100 --> 00:42:06,200
And my book? 
I say it is like, adversity, 

895
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,500
shows up unannounced at the most
inopportune time without 

896
00:42:08,500 --> 00:42:10,000
apology. 
It couldn't care. 

897
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,900
Less about what you want. 
It doesn't give a damn about 

898
00:42:11,900 --> 00:42:14,600
your feelings and diversity, 
doesn't take no for an answer. 

899
00:42:15,100 --> 00:42:17,300
It forces us to elevate to a 
higher level. 

900
00:42:17,300 --> 00:42:19,700
It never lets us do just enough 
to get by. 

901
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,500
It knows our true potential. 
Even we, when we don't Which is 

902
00:42:23,500 --> 00:42:25,700
why it kicks our ass when we 
don't give a hundred percent. 

903
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,000
Enriched of any wrote an 
incredible book called The 

904
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:31,800
attribute is the next Navy SEAL 
commander and he was saying that

905
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,600
resilience is not just the 
ability to have grit is the 

906
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,900
capacity to adapt to the 
unexpected. 

907
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,400
So, there's a lot of people that
are mentally stronger or there's

908
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:42,500
like different circles in our 
life. 

909
00:42:42,500 --> 00:42:43,700
Right? 
So you have a person who's 

910
00:42:43,700 --> 00:42:47,300
incredibly disciplined with the 
working out in their diet, but 

911
00:42:47,300 --> 00:42:50,100
then when they go to their job, 
their half-assing it when 

912
00:42:50,100 --> 00:42:52,700
they're in their relationship, 
they're the kind of empty. 

913
00:42:53,300 --> 00:42:57,100
So, if you have this ability, if
you have this framework in one 

914
00:42:57,100 --> 00:43:00,000
area, why aren't you challenging
yourself to do it in other 

915
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,500
places? 
Why aren't you challenging your?

916
00:43:01,500 --> 00:43:02,800
That? 
Same discipline that you use in 

917
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,500
the gym to work towards your own
personal life? 

918
00:43:05,500 --> 00:43:07,000
Whether it be creative side, 
Hustle. 

919
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,800
Being a better leader at work, 
being a better husband or wife 

920
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,600
being a better member of your 
Society. 

921
00:43:13,100 --> 00:43:18,700
David Goggins, even said it in 
his book, he was saying how He 

922
00:43:18,700 --> 00:43:22,500
knew that he wasn't very smart 
and he said that he took the 

923
00:43:22,500 --> 00:43:26,100
same discipline that he did from
running to learning like dive 

924
00:43:26,100 --> 00:43:28,100
manuals. 
So he knew that he would have to

925
00:43:28,100 --> 00:43:31,900
write it out manually 10 times 
to get to the place to do it. 

926
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,200
That's incredible discipline. 
And again, it's easy to be 

927
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:39,900
disciplined in one sphere. 
But do you have the honesty with

928
00:43:39,900 --> 00:43:41,900
yourself to say, man? 
If I could keep doing what I'm 

929
00:43:41,900 --> 00:43:45,500
doing over here and write these 
write this down 10 times or 

930
00:43:45,500 --> 00:43:47,200
whatever it takes to get into 
that place. 

931
00:43:47,700 --> 00:43:49,500
That's what it. 
To get you to that next area. 

932
00:43:49,500 --> 00:43:52,400
So again, like you said the 
vehicle of the business, it's 

933
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,300
the best personal development 
project you could ever have 

934
00:43:54,300 --> 00:43:57,100
because you learn more about 
yourself, writing a book, create

935
00:43:57,100 --> 00:44:00,400
a business dealing with those 
hardships than you ever would 

936
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:04,700
from try. 
I hate that. 

937
00:44:04,700 --> 00:44:08,600
Everybody is looking for the 
next program or the next book or

938
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:12,200
the next Mastermind to give them
all the answers, to give them 

939
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,500
all these this formula to 
success. 

940
00:44:15,100 --> 00:44:18,600
But again, like I said before, I
can give you all the formulas in

941
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,300
the world, but if you don't know
who the hell you are or what you

942
00:44:21,300 --> 00:44:24,400
believe in, and what's important
to you, like really important. 

943
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:26,600
None of this should other 
matters. 

944
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,300
It doesn't, you're just 
following somebody else's 

945
00:44:29,300 --> 00:44:31,700
formula that may or may not have
helped them in that moment. 

946
00:44:32,100 --> 00:44:35,600
And until you can find In the 
Destroyer lie in alignment with 

947
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:37,300
you and congruent with 
everything that you're doing and

948
00:44:37,300 --> 00:44:40,000
you believe in, you're going to 
be basically. 

949
00:44:42,300 --> 00:44:43,900
Inefficient with a lot of your 
time. 

950
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,300
Totally agree. 
Let me ask you this. 

951
00:44:47,500 --> 00:44:51,100
We live in an era and a time and
a place in which things are 

952
00:44:51,100 --> 00:44:52,300
pretty cush. 
I mean there's there's 

953
00:44:52,300 --> 00:44:54,800
definitely things going on the 
world right now that are not 

954
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,200
sunshine and rainbows and I 
don't want to discredit that. 

955
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,800
But I mean, if you have time to 
listen to a podcast, if you 

956
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,700
have, you know, if you have 
money in the bank, if you have 

957
00:45:04,700 --> 00:45:08,100
clothes on your back food in the
fridge, and then you're probably

958
00:45:08,100 --> 00:45:09,900
not waking up every single day 
questioning whether or not 

959
00:45:09,900 --> 00:45:11,500
you're going to be surviving 
that day. 

960
00:45:13,500 --> 00:45:17,000
So we create these self-imposed 
hardships, whether that be 

961
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,600
something like the format for 
about 48, whether that be a 

962
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,200
bodybuilding competition prep 
with that be a business, whether

963
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:25,700
it be a mere, whatever, that is.
We create these self-imposed 

964
00:45:25,700 --> 00:45:30,500
hardships to benefit from all 
the, the mental psychological 

965
00:45:30,500 --> 00:45:35,900
emotional, physical strains, 
that result and for people like 

966
00:45:35,900 --> 00:45:38,400
you. 
And I mean, I think like a self 

967
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,300
mask because, you know, like, I 
seek out the pain, like I feel 

968
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,500
Draught when things are 
comfortable, like, I feel like 

969
00:45:44,500 --> 00:45:47,400
if I'm in a place, a place of 
comfort, I'm doing something 

970
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:49,500
wrong like it. 
That's what brings me, anxiety. 

971
00:45:49,500 --> 00:45:54,200
If I'm incredibly miserable. 
I feel more at peace, which is 

972
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:55,800
just weird to say, but it's 
true. 

973
00:45:57,500 --> 00:46:00,800
In some people, you know, they 
don't have near enough hardship 

974
00:46:00,900 --> 00:46:02,400
and some people neither in the 
spectrum. 

975
00:46:02,900 --> 00:46:06,100
They create so much hardship 
that they are not able to relax 

976
00:46:06,100 --> 00:46:08,200
and that can be a negative 
thing, as well. 

977
00:46:08,900 --> 00:46:12,500
So, how would you define? 
Enough. 

978
00:46:12,700 --> 00:46:19,100
What is enough is enough? 
A good thing is, I don't think 

979
00:46:19,500 --> 00:46:23,400
satisfaction is a good thing. 
I think contentment is a good 

980
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,000
thing. 
I like to be content with where 

981
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,400
I'm at. 
Always striving to be better, 

982
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,900
but I like to be content with 
where I'm at, but not so much 

983
00:46:30,900 --> 00:46:36,100
satisfied with where I'm at. 
So learning how to you know, 

984
00:46:36,100 --> 00:46:39,100
present things and bring things 
into my life, that pushed me but

985
00:46:39,100 --> 00:46:43,300
in a sustainable manner that 
like you and I 150 miles and 

986
00:46:43,300 --> 00:46:47,600
that was great, but it probably 
would be counterintuitive or 

987
00:46:47,607 --> 00:46:50,000
counterproductive for us to run 
50 miles every single day of our

988
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:52,500
life, you know, so at what 
point? 

989
00:46:52,900 --> 00:46:53,900
And this is gonna be different 
for everybody. 

990
00:46:53,900 --> 00:46:56,600
But how would you define enough?
And how would you define 

991
00:46:56,900 --> 00:46:59,700
sustainability, and scalability?
Like, how would you structure 

992
00:46:59,700 --> 00:47:02,800
this in a way that is more 
positive than negative? 

993
00:47:02,900 --> 00:47:05,600
And that's a great point, 
because if you look at social 

994
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,100
media, you're going to have one 
side of the side. 

995
00:47:08,300 --> 00:47:11,400
That tells you always push, you 
know, hash. 

996
00:47:11,500 --> 00:47:13,800
Tag team, no, sleep grind, grind
grind. 

997
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:16,100
If you're having a grind, 18 
hours a day. 

998
00:47:16,100 --> 00:47:17,900
You're doing something wrong. 
You're not efficient with your 

999
00:47:17,900 --> 00:47:22,200
time. 
So in my mind, doing enough 

1000
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,900
means that I'm doing everything 
that I possibly can efficiently 

1001
00:47:25,500 --> 00:47:27,900
being very honest with myself. 
Again that self-knowledge 

1002
00:47:28,300 --> 00:47:30,200
adversity is the gateway to self
knowledge. 

1003
00:47:30,700 --> 00:47:33,200
That helps you understand what 
is enough, but the beautiful 

1004
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,100
point that you brought up also 
is US running. 

1005
00:47:36,100 --> 00:47:39,500
Again, today is would be stupid 
and counterproductive 

1006
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:44,000
unnecessary, right? 
So, sometimes enough means 

1007
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,200
you're asking yourself to demand
more. 

1008
00:47:47,100 --> 00:47:50,500
Sometimes, especially for people
that are hard Chargers, the 

1009
00:47:50,500 --> 00:47:53,900
hardest thing for them to do. 
Is take a step back. 

1010
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:58,600
The hardest thing for them to do
is to not keep pushing to not 

1011
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,000
continue to make that phone call
to not continue, making that 

1012
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,300
email. 
And the thing is like you said 

1013
00:48:03,300 --> 00:48:05,700
for each of us that as an 
individual that's different. 

1014
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,400
And you also go through phases, 
right? 

1015
00:48:08,500 --> 00:48:12,400
You go through phases writing 
your book phases in and prep for

1016
00:48:12,500 --> 00:48:15,800
competition. 
There's going to be places like 

1017
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,100
we were talking about it. 
My wife and I last month last 

1018
00:48:18,100 --> 00:48:19,900
year. 
We traveled once every month and

1019
00:48:19,908 --> 00:48:23,200
then we got married. 
And you were even Crystal where 

1020
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:25,800
there. 
And I'm so glad you were by 

1021
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:29,600
January of this year. 
If I followed that same Pace, 

1022
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:33,000
you know, I talked to her and 
she's like, I mean, because I 

1023
00:48:33,008 --> 00:48:34,500
thought I said, it's like, it's 
January. 

1024
00:48:34,500 --> 00:48:38,600
Let's go to the Caribbean or 
something and she's like, That 

1025
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:40,500
sounds good. 
And I'm like what's going on? 

1026
00:48:40,500 --> 00:48:43,000
And she said, you know, frankly 
with all the stuff we did last 

1027
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:44,900
year. 
It would feel good just to have 

1028
00:48:44,900 --> 00:48:46,300
like a staycation. 
Yeah. 

1029
00:48:46,300 --> 00:48:50,400
So again, to be honest with 
yourself and say, what's enough?

1030
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:54,700
Maybe once enough, what is 
enough is in this moment? 

1031
00:48:54,700 --> 00:48:57,600
What's optimal back to Rich to 
Vinny? 

1032
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,800
He says, it's not about Peak 
Performance about Optimal 

1033
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:03,700
Performance. 
So us, we were not at 100% at 2 

1034
00:49:03,700 --> 00:49:06,700
a.m. 
Sunday morning, but we gave 

1035
00:49:06,700 --> 00:49:09,600
everything that we had, we gave 
whatever we had in the tank. 

1036
00:49:09,900 --> 00:49:12,400
Whatever your 100% is. 
We gave it at that moment. 

1037
00:49:12,900 --> 00:49:16,200
And that's where enough is. 
That's we're making it in a way 

1038
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,300
where it's optimal where you're 
not getting these huge 

1039
00:49:18,300 --> 00:49:21,300
diminishing returns where you're
not unnecessarily. 

1040
00:49:21,500 --> 00:49:23,600
Yourself where you're not 
putting yourself into like a 

1041
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,700
psychological or mental state 
where now, no matter what 

1042
00:49:26,700 --> 00:49:30,100
happens, you're not happy or 
putting yourself in a place 

1043
00:49:30,100 --> 00:49:33,800
where you can't even connect and
be transparent with a loved one,

1044
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:35,500
you know, people in your team 
Etc. 

1045
00:49:35,500 --> 00:49:38,900
Because without that I was 
talking to you about people that

1046
00:49:38,900 --> 00:49:44,700
have Coach where they weren't 
being honest with themselves and

1047
00:49:44,700 --> 00:49:46,600
that made it impossible for 
them, to be honest, with other 

1048
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,300
people. 
And now you're sending out these

1049
00:49:49,300 --> 00:49:52,800
mixed signals and now people are
confused and you may have an 

1050
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:56,700
expectation from somebody else 
or from a team member and you 

1051
00:49:56,707 --> 00:49:59,400
may never have even express that
but if you don't, it's 

1052
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:02,300
impossible for them to read your
mind to anticipate everything 

1053
00:50:02,300 --> 00:50:03,000
that you want. 
Won't you? 

1054
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,400
Just tell them? 
This is what I this is what I'm 

1055
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,100
expecting. 
This is what enough is? 

1056
00:50:07,100 --> 00:50:09,800
This is what good is. 
If we want Excellence we try to 

1057
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:12,900
go about that as much as we can 
in a way that again is 

1058
00:50:12,900 --> 00:50:14,800
sustainable. 
Because if we don't, it's very 

1059
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,800
easy for us. 
It's hard Chargers to burn out. 

1060
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:21,900
Even me after my injury, but 
those of you that don't know, I 

1061
00:50:21,908 --> 00:50:23,600
was injured, the military. 
I was paralyzed from the neck 

1062
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:25,400
down dying. 
The table twice. 

1063
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,500
I told never walk again. 
So 40 years old. 

1064
00:50:28,500 --> 00:50:32,200
That's what happened. 
Now, once I got out, trying to 

1065
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,300
figure out what the hell do I do
with my life, that was another 

1066
00:50:34,300 --> 00:50:37,400
challenge and then when I 
started on this entrepreneurial 

1067
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:44,100
path writing a book speaking, I 
found myself very much drawn to 

1068
00:50:44,100 --> 00:50:46,600
this idea of just keep pushing, 
pushing, pushing, pushing 

1069
00:50:47,100 --> 00:50:50,800
because This finite and we only 
have so much time but I also 

1070
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:54,400
understood that there's more to 
life than just that push and 

1071
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,100
more to life than just this 
artificial metric. 

1072
00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:00,000
You know, how much is enough 
again? 

1073
00:51:00,700 --> 00:51:02,500
How much mediocrity is enough 
for people? 

1074
00:51:03,700 --> 00:51:06,100
How much inconsistency is enough
for people? 

1075
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,300
If you can ask yourself those 
questions to be really honest 

1076
00:51:09,300 --> 00:51:11,600
about what really matters to 
you, like, really, like, what 

1077
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,900
would you fight or die for? 
That's a good place to begin. 

1078
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:18,900
If you were injured, like I was 
and you were able to walk again,

1079
00:51:18,900 --> 00:51:20,300
what would you want to do 
immediately? 

1080
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:25,100
Like these are the real 
questions, not some artificial 

1081
00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:27,900
in a little checklist. 
You get from social media from a

1082
00:51:27,908 --> 00:51:29,900
book. 
Most of those things are very 

1083
00:51:31,100 --> 00:51:34,100
superficial at best and people 
love superficial because they 

1084
00:51:34,100 --> 00:51:35,400
don't actually have to do the 
work. 

1085
00:51:35,500 --> 00:51:37,200
Mmm. 
It's Adam. 

1086
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:44,100
And I often times think about 
death like, I think, you know, 

1087
00:51:44,100 --> 00:51:46,400
momentum or a. 
Yep, I think. 

1088
00:51:46,500 --> 00:51:50,200
And I visualize and I like spin 
legitimate time thinking about. 

1089
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:54,300
What would my day look like if I
died today? 

1090
00:51:54,300 --> 00:51:57,700
What would my day? 
Look like, if Crystal was given 

1091
00:51:57,700 --> 00:52:00,400
a death sentence, like what, 
what are the most important 

1092
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:03,500
people in my life? 
And how would I conduct myself 

1093
00:52:03,500 --> 00:52:06,600
if I knew and that something 
treacherous was going to happen 

1094
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,800
to them? 
Them and that sounds really 

1095
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:12,000
morbid. 
But I feel like it improves the 

1096
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,000
quality of the relationships. 
I have with those people. 

1097
00:52:14,500 --> 00:52:17,000
It improves the quality of how I
spend my time throughout that 

1098
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:22,200
day and the plans that I make 
throughout my life and I feel 

1099
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,300
like you know death is going to 
happen to us. 

1100
00:52:24,300 --> 00:52:26,700
All like it's inevitable like 
you and I were going to be 

1101
00:52:26,700 --> 00:52:30,600
fertilized and daffodils before 
too long, you know, so being at 

1102
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:35,300
peace with that accepting that 
fixating on it for a moment and 

1103
00:52:35,300 --> 00:52:36,800
then recognize that it's going 
to happen. 

1104
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,900
And then living your life with 
that knowledge as opposed to 

1105
00:52:41,900 --> 00:52:44,500
sticking your head in the sand 
and running away from it. 

1106
00:52:44,900 --> 00:52:47,800
I mean, I think that's something
that we all would benefit from. 

1107
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:50,500
I feel like recognizing it being
a peace with the fact that life 

1108
00:52:50,500 --> 00:52:53,700
is finite that we are going to 
die and that really focusing on 

1109
00:52:53,700 --> 00:52:55,000
how we're going to live that 
life. 

1110
00:52:55,300 --> 00:52:57,600
You know, that that's that's the
key thing and people say this 

1111
00:52:57,600 --> 00:52:59,600
like, it's all it's all said, 
it's all out there. 

1112
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:01,900
It's probably in some much 
fancier quote that I've just 

1113
00:53:01,900 --> 00:53:06,200
Illustrated somewhere, but I 
feel like so few people live 

1114
00:53:06,300 --> 00:53:09,600
with that. 
Knowledge, like if I was dying 

1115
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,900
today. 
I would honestly be smiling, 

1116
00:53:12,900 --> 00:53:15,400
man. 
Like I have no regrets - sure, 

1117
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,000
there's things that I wish I 
would have done. 

1118
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,500
Could have done should have 
done, but I think the day like 

1119
00:53:19,500 --> 00:53:22,400
I'm proud of the life that I've 
lived up, this point, like I 

1120
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,700
feel good about it and I'm happy
to say that. 

1121
00:53:25,700 --> 00:53:28,800
I don't know if most people 
could say that, I hope so, but I

1122
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:29,500
don't know that. 
That's the case. 

1123
00:53:29,500 --> 00:53:34,500
But yeah, man, I think, I think 
recognizing it being at peace 

1124
00:53:34,500 --> 00:53:37,400
with the brevity of life, super 
super important character trait.

1125
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:41,800
And like you were saying, you 
know, we have to figure out, Out

1126
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,200
a way to push but then also be 
sustainable. 

1127
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:48,200
I feel like if a hundred percent
is ending with your death, like 

1128
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:49,500
if you're running a marathon you
like. 

1129
00:53:49,500 --> 00:53:52,000
Hey, I'm gonna give it 100% and 
people say I'm going to give it 

1130
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:53,500
100%. 
Go out all the time to go give 

1131
00:53:53,500 --> 00:53:56,900
it 110%, But if you give it 100%
like that would literally mean 

1132
00:53:56,900 --> 00:53:57,800
that you die. 
At the end of it. 

1133
00:53:57,808 --> 00:53:59,700
You give it all that. 
You have to point that your 

1134
00:53:59,700 --> 00:54:03,500
heart literally stops beating 
when you cross that finish line.

1135
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:06,700
That's 100%. 
Obviously. 

1136
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,300
We don't want to do that. 
Every time I run a marathon and 

1137
00:54:09,300 --> 00:54:11,000
and Marathon meeting anything in
life, it's hard. 

1138
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:14,100
And because you obviously would 
be shutting your life, pretty 

1139
00:54:14,100 --> 00:54:18,100
short, to me. 
It's far more impressive to live

1140
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:26,100
at 80% 100% of the time, then to
go 99% once or twice throughout 

1141
00:54:26,100 --> 00:54:29,600
your entire existence. 
When I've tried to do is, is 

1142
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:33,500
live pretty much 80%, Like, I 
find that making eighty percent,

1143
00:54:33,700 --> 00:54:36,800
you know, that that's more or 
less sustainable in my eyes be 

1144
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:39,300
80% and then do things like 
this. 

1145
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:40,600
Like the four by four by forty 
eight. 

1146
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:42,900
I mean, that, 100% for us 
because we didn't die. 

1147
00:54:42,900 --> 00:54:46,400
We're still here breathing but 
that was, I don't know. 90%, 

1148
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:48,700
maybe. 
So if you're Livin Life 80% but 

1149
00:54:48,700 --> 00:54:51,900
then you've got, you know, 
moments in time, you know a 

1150
00:54:51,908 --> 00:54:54,400
couple times throughout the year
where you go to 90 95 percent 

1151
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,300
and you really figure out what 
you're made of. 

1152
00:54:56,800 --> 00:55:02,200
That makes what at that point, 
as 80% being sustainable, it 

1153
00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,700
just UPS the ante a little bit 
so that you know next time your 

1154
00:55:05,700 --> 00:55:10,700
current 80% is actually 85% 
going forward and I feel like if

1155
00:55:10,700 --> 00:55:13,200
you do Ooh, that repetitively 
over the course of your 

1156
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,000
existence. 
What you find to be sustainable 

1157
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:18,100
and scalable. 
Just continues to improve and I 

1158
00:55:18,107 --> 00:55:19,500
feel like that should be all 
over goal. 

1159
00:55:19,500 --> 00:55:22,900
If, you know, I mean, everybody 
knows if they're pushing it or 

1160
00:55:22,900 --> 00:55:25,700
if they're not like whenever I 
go too long without really 

1161
00:55:25,700 --> 00:55:28,200
pushing it, I feel guilty, like,
I feel bad. 

1162
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,100
That's why I do something like 
this chance. 

1163
00:55:30,100 --> 00:55:31,600
Why do something like, write in 
the books? 

1164
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:35,500
Why do something that's outside 
of my normal area of comfort. 

1165
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:39,500
But we all know if we push 
ourselves are not and you know 

1166
00:55:39,500 --> 00:55:41,000
what, my level of perspective 
is. 

1167
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,400
What is hard is going to be 
different for anybody else? 

1168
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,300
But we all inherently know, if 
we're doing it right or doing it

1169
00:55:46,300 --> 00:55:48,000
wrong, and you got to have 
enough self awareness and be 

1170
00:55:48,008 --> 00:55:50,500
honest with yourself and then 
adjust and act. 

1171
00:55:50,500 --> 00:55:52,900
Accordingly. 
That's the Josh waitzkin. 

1172
00:55:52,900 --> 00:55:54,400
He wrote the, the art of 
learning. 

1173
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:57,800
And he's a Peak Performance 
coach for like, the most 

1174
00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:00,300
impressive, you know, hedge fund
managers in the world. 

1175
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:03,400
He's got four different 
interviews on Tim Ferriss show, 

1176
00:56:03,900 --> 00:56:08,800
amazing guy, right? 
He says that in the progression 

1177
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:12,500
to Excellence, it is a marathon.
And it is a Sprint. 

1178
00:56:12,700 --> 00:56:15,500
It is a marathon of Sprints. 
And that's what you're talking 

1179
00:56:15,500 --> 00:56:18,400
about is like I know the 80% is 
right to the point where it 

1180
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:21,200
forces me to adapt, but not to 
the point where I'm breaking my 

1181
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:24,000
legs. 
Every time I do squats and even 

1182
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:27,400
then, I found coaching different
people, you have a person who's 

1183
00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:31,500
like an incredible achiever in 
business and then they get 

1184
00:56:31,500 --> 00:56:34,000
corroborated by that behavior 
because of society and they go. 

1185
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:36,200
Oh, look at this, entrepreneur 
change in the world doing all 

1186
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,200
these things. 
And they think that unless 

1187
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:41,000
they're going on a thousand 
percent in that area. 

1188
00:56:41,700 --> 00:56:43,600
All the time that they're not 
doing enough. 

1189
00:56:44,300 --> 00:56:48,500
They also fear because they're 
doing well in one area, but 

1190
00:56:48,500 --> 00:56:51,100
their physical fitness, maybe 
it's not great. 

1191
00:56:51,300 --> 00:56:54,100
The person relationships 
probably not their meditation 

1192
00:56:54,100 --> 00:56:57,100
components or spirituality 
belief systems 

1193
00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:02,000
self-introspection non-existent 
and they fear that if they pull 

1194
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:05,900
back even a little bit on this 
one area of business and pushing

1195
00:57:06,300 --> 00:57:08,700
that is going to stop them, but 
that's going to be their Edge, 

1196
00:57:09,100 --> 00:57:11,100
but you have to remember that 
the edge Cuts both ways. 

1197
00:57:12,300 --> 00:57:16,200
And what I found that is by 
giving them the capacity to pull

1198
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:21,000
back, just a little bit in this 
one area and give more attention

1199
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:26,200
to their family, to their 
relationships, their their 

1200
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:30,500
physicality, their diet fasting,
keto stuff and their ability to 

1201
00:57:30,500 --> 00:57:34,800
actually have some self 
introspection when these areas 

1202
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:36,600
elevate. 
It takes where they used to be, 

1203
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:40,100
even if it's pulled back and 
makes everything Elevate again 

1204
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:43,400
and again, and again. 
And now Well, there's this Joy. 

1205
00:57:43,500 --> 00:57:45,300
Now, this is there's a 
satisfaction that they were 

1206
00:57:45,300 --> 00:57:47,700
afraid to allow themselves to 
feel in the process. 

1207
00:57:48,300 --> 00:57:51,700
And I know that may sound deep, 
but if you're doing anything, 

1208
00:57:51,700 --> 00:57:54,900
whether it be, and you're a 
leader, anybody, this listen, 

1209
00:57:54,900 --> 00:57:56,900
this is a leader in some way, 
whether you're a parent, whether

1210
00:57:56,900 --> 00:57:59,600
you're a person that somebody 
looks up to it work, whether you

1211
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:03,500
own a multi-billion dollar 
company, if you understand that 

1212
00:58:03,500 --> 00:58:06,900
and you understand that you have
to evolve and change and that 

1213
00:58:06,900 --> 00:58:10,100
means again some of your 
characteristics have to evolve 

1214
00:58:10,100 --> 00:58:14,300
and change your T to recognize 
things in yourself. 

1215
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:17,800
Here's the thing. 
People think the empathy is this

1216
00:58:17,800 --> 00:58:21,500
like, soft fluffy word, but 
empathy is so key. 

1217
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:24,900
Because if I have a team member 
and I don't have the 

1218
00:58:24,900 --> 00:58:28,000
intelligence to understand that 
to be empathetic to them, and 

1219
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,800
see that they're either going 
through something or the, what 

1220
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:32,000
I'm asking them is too much, or 
that they're confused or that 

1221
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,100
I'm not clear enough on what I 
want from them. 

1222
00:58:34,700 --> 00:58:38,600
That's called pragmatic empathy.
If I can't sense that that I'm 

1223
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:41,900
letting them down. 
I talked about it before, how if

1224
00:58:42,500 --> 00:58:45,100
A leader of a company and I'm 
talking about. 

1225
00:58:45,100 --> 00:58:46,900
Let's go kill it. 
Let's go drag it back to the 

1226
00:58:46,900 --> 00:58:48,500
from the cave and let's do all 
this stuff. 

1227
00:58:48,500 --> 00:58:50,300
And you have half the companies 
like, yeah. 

1228
00:58:50,700 --> 00:58:52,700
And the other half, the company 
is like, this sounds like it's 

1229
00:58:52,700 --> 00:58:55,200
going to be a lot more work in 
this going to be a lot more 

1230
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:57,000
headache for us. 
And it feels like we're not 

1231
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:02,600
going to get, you know, enough 
recognition for this now, unless

1232
00:59:02,900 --> 00:59:04,600
unintentionally, you divided 
your company. 

1233
00:59:04,700 --> 00:59:09,000
Hmm, and now you're sending 
mixed signals and now by not 

1234
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,400
having that empathy by being 
aware to just be a To read the 

1235
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:16,100
room. 
It actually holds you back. 

1236
00:59:16,100 --> 00:59:17,800
It puts one arm behind your 
back. 

1237
00:59:18,300 --> 00:59:21,100
But if you can reach people and 
say, listen, you guys are 

1238
00:59:21,100 --> 00:59:22,900
amazing. 
You're the reason why we're able

1239
00:59:22,900 --> 00:59:24,500
to do this to a few people and 
operations. 

1240
00:59:24,500 --> 00:59:26,400
You people and fulfillment. 
You guys are going above and 

1241
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:27,800
beyond and we can't thank you 
enough. 

1242
00:59:28,100 --> 00:59:30,200
As a matter of fact, our sales 
team has to step it up because 

1243
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:33,200
they can't keep up with you. 
And now the sales team gets a 

1244
00:59:33,207 --> 00:59:35,900
kick in the ass, which is people
that are in that Arena usually 

1245
00:59:35,900 --> 00:59:38,500
like a little bit of fire and 
then the people that are on the 

1246
00:59:38,500 --> 00:59:42,700
other side, feel valued, they 
feel heard, they feel Seen. 

1247
00:59:43,300 --> 00:59:47,000
And if they can have that, now 
you've helped everybody and now 

1248
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:48,800
that you've given that message 
on both sides and now you say 

1249
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:51,200
together as a team as a company.
This is how we get to the next 

1250
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:52,400
level. 
What we're doing matters. 

1251
00:59:52,700 --> 00:59:54,200
What we're doing is changing 
lives. 

1252
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,900
You making keto bricks literally
is changing, people's lives. 

1253
00:59:57,500 --> 01:00:00,200
Tom bill, you talked about it, 
his whole idea was this notion 

1254
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:04,400
with Quest, was to have a food 
bar or any kind of food that was

1255
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:08,500
actually decent for you, good 
for you, but also metabolically 

1256
01:00:09,100 --> 01:00:12,500
advantageous while tasting good.
The same thing that Peter Brooks

1257
01:00:12,500 --> 01:00:15,100
like I recommend him to 
everybody. 

1258
01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:16,600
I mean, especially with what we 
were doing, right? 

1259
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:19,100
Like, what do you say? 
I'm like, listen. 

1260
01:00:19,100 --> 01:00:20,400
I'm tired. 
I'm going to get two bites of 

1261
01:00:20,408 --> 01:00:23,100
this cuter brick, and I'm going 
to lay down, I get a couple 

1262
01:00:23,100 --> 01:00:25,600
hundred calories are just high, 
quality nutrients, that's going 

1263
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,400
to feed me. 
That's going to help me recover.

1264
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,400
The best. 
My capacity going to give me the

1265
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:32,000
good fast to lubricate my joints
to keep my cognition where it 

1266
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,800
needs to be and I can give those
to people that are Hunters. 

1267
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,400
People that are hikers people 
that are any kind of Outdoors 

1268
01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:45,400
person because even in A crisis 
by Easter, he talks about when 

1269
01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,100
they would go hunting in like 
Alaska. 

1270
01:00:47,900 --> 01:00:50,500
They were eating just like 
crappy, you know, granola bars 

1271
01:00:50,500 --> 01:00:52,800
that were 200 calories of pH and
he was like, you have to eat 

1272
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:55,200
four or five of those things 
even felony for my satisfaction.

1273
01:00:55,500 --> 01:00:58,400
But eating one key to break of 
yours is 1000 quality calories. 

1274
01:00:59,300 --> 01:01:00,800
I mean, come on, man. 
You can put two or three of 

1275
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:03,500
those in your rucksack and 
you're good and hopefully you 

1276
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,200
get a bison or something to 
actually be able to eat, but if 

1277
01:01:06,207 --> 01:01:08,600
you don't you have enough to 
keep you going. 

1278
01:01:08,700 --> 01:01:10,800
And that's why what you do 
matters. 

1279
01:01:11,100 --> 01:01:13,800
That's why the way that You lead
everybody, and when you have 

1280
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:16,300
that, sort of gravity and 
knowledge, and every decision 

1281
01:01:16,300 --> 01:01:19,200
that you make it forces, you to 
make better decisions. 

1282
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:21,900
So again, you're putting 
yourself in that place of having

1283
01:01:21,900 --> 01:01:24,400
to do the right thing. 
You don't have the option of 

1284
01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:25,900
slacking. 
You don't have the option of 

1285
01:01:25,900 --> 01:01:29,300
falling back. 
Because if you're a leader and 

1286
01:01:29,300 --> 01:01:31,300
you're not leading by example, 
you're just setting a bad 

1287
01:01:31,300 --> 01:01:33,900
example. 
Yeah, everybody's watching you 

1288
01:01:33,900 --> 01:01:35,200
and the one time that they see 
you. 

1289
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:39,100
Slack is a leader. 
If you have people over here 

1290
01:01:39,100 --> 01:01:41,400
that are working their ass off 
and then they think that you're 

1291
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:44,400
not giving enough. 
They're always going to remember

1292
01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:47,500
that that snapshot in their mind
and other like Will Robertson 

1293
01:01:47,500 --> 01:01:49,800
there, you know, with his feet, 
kicked up, not do anything. 

1294
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:53,300
They're only going to give about
75% of what your hundred percent

1295
01:01:53,300 --> 01:01:57,800
is and we can't expect everybody
to lead or or had the same 

1296
01:01:57,800 --> 01:02:00,600
vision that we do. 
But when you hire quality 

1297
01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:03,500
people, they love what this mesh
is about. 

1298
01:02:03,500 --> 01:02:06,600
They love what your vision is 
and that's what will keep you 

1299
01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:08,100
going. 
Again, when you hit the stick 

1300
01:02:08,100 --> 01:02:09,800
and get stuck in the mud 
sometimes. 

1301
01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:13,100
Yeah, I think, you know how the 
saying, how you do anything? 

1302
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:15,900
Everything comes to mind as 
you're as you're saying that 

1303
01:02:15,900 --> 01:02:21,500
because I feel like no job is 
beneath me and that transcends 

1304
01:02:21,500 --> 01:02:24,200
the business. 
But everything. 

1305
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,700
I mean like I want to take pride
in every single thing. 

1306
01:02:26,700 --> 01:02:28,000
I do. 
Whether it's sweeping the 

1307
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:31,400
freakin break room floor or 
having a you know, big sales 

1308
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:35,000
call with a potential client, it
all matters and how you do 

1309
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:36,600
anything is how you do 
everything. 

1310
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:40,200
And I see so many people, 
half-ass an area of their life 

1311
01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:42,700
that they don't feel. 
It's very important and then 

1312
01:02:42,700 --> 01:02:45,500
they Promise that they're going 
to be freaking stellar and other

1313
01:02:45,500 --> 01:02:49,300
areas, but to me if I see you 
half-ass anything. 

1314
01:02:49,300 --> 01:02:51,600
I'm assume that your ability to 
have fast. 

1315
01:02:51,700 --> 01:02:56,000
Everything is Amplified as well.
So I really look for for that 

1316
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,300
attribute in people, you know, 
like taking pride in everything 

1317
01:02:58,300 --> 01:03:00,700
you do. 
No matter how insignificant 

1318
01:03:00,700 --> 01:03:04,300
seemingly insignificant the task
is another thing. 

1319
01:03:04,300 --> 01:03:06,300
I don't want to forget because 
you'll be bringing another 

1320
01:03:06,300 --> 01:03:09,900
bounce, you know, if you like 
your salesperson example, like 

1321
01:03:09,900 --> 01:03:12,400
if they remove a little bit in 
that one area to add to other 

1322
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:14,900
areas and then Raises All Ships,
I think. 

1323
01:03:15,700 --> 01:03:20,900
I think that is one key 
attribute of a marriage believe 

1324
01:03:20,900 --> 01:03:23,000
it or not. 
So like crystal is very 

1325
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:25,000
different than me that we were 
raised very differently. 

1326
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,400
Everything is very different. 
You're recently married as well 

1327
01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:30,200
to Rachel. 
And y'all are very different. 

1328
01:03:30,500 --> 01:03:33,400
But I think when you, when 
you're married to somebody who 

1329
01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:35,800
is different than you, which 
everybody's different from one 

1330
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:37,100
another, in some form of 
fashion. 

1331
01:03:37,900 --> 01:03:41,200
It really sheds, light on to all
these different pillars of your 

1332
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:45,100
life and it forces you to open 
your eyes as to where things may

1333
01:03:45,100 --> 01:03:48,400
be lacking. 
I mean, before, before I had her

1334
01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:52,700
in my life, my ability to just 
go full bore towards business 

1335
01:03:52,700 --> 01:03:56,500
was there. 
But everything else suffered in 

1336
01:03:56,500 --> 01:04:01,500
having her and giving her equal 
importance to anything that I'm 

1337
01:04:01,500 --> 01:04:04,100
doing, like it's not like I can 
look at life and be like, okay. 

1338
01:04:04,100 --> 01:04:06,600
This is the things that I want 
to do and then the bank burners,

1339
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:08,300
all these things across the 
wants to do, I have to literally

1340
01:04:08,300 --> 01:04:10,700
look at it through the lens of 
look, anything that she wants is

1341
01:04:10,700 --> 01:04:13,100
just as important as anything I 
want. 

1342
01:04:13,500 --> 01:04:17,200
And when I have this equality 
towards off her desires, it's 

1343
01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:21,700
like, it's not fair for me to 
half-ass her, her, you know, 

1344
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:23,600
wishes in order to fulfill my 
own. 

1345
01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:26,600
They have to all be, you know, 
in sync. 

1346
01:04:27,300 --> 01:04:30,400
So viewing the life with this 
symbiotic lens. 

1347
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:33,600
Now, in which, case everything 
that I do and spend time on 

1348
01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:36,700
benefits, the whole everything I
do and spend time on benefits 

1349
01:04:36,700 --> 01:04:40,000
her whole and that we've got a 
baby on the way, you know, that 

1350
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:44,500
being for Forefront of my mind 
like that to me is Is what is 

1351
01:04:44,500 --> 01:04:46,700
the benefit of having a 
marriage? 

1352
01:04:46,700 --> 01:04:49,200
Having a family? 
Having something that brings 

1353
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,800
other people into your life? 
To the point where like you have

1354
01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:55,800
to be aware of how you cannot. 
Just focus singularly on one 

1355
01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:57,900
thing because everything else 
will crumble. 

1356
01:04:58,500 --> 01:05:02,300
And so many people go through 
life only focused on one thing, 

1357
01:05:02,700 --> 01:05:05,700
and they in their accepting of 
other things crumbling, but to 

1358
01:05:05,700 --> 01:05:09,200
me, like, if you had a hundred 
percent in 11 pillar and 

1359
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,900
everything else is at 10%, then 
you are not winning, you are not

1360
01:05:12,900 --> 01:05:13,500
sick. 
Eating. 

1361
01:05:13,500 --> 01:05:17,000
I mean, that that is failing. 
I mean, there's so many more 

1362
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:19,600
attributes of life than just one
singular notion. 

1363
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:23,300
So, get a little abstract here, 
but, but having her in my life, 

1364
01:05:23,300 --> 01:05:26,100
basically summarize, all this is
has been one of the most 

1365
01:05:26,700 --> 01:05:30,400
beneficial things for me for the
business, which if you were to 

1366
01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:34,200
ask me that, you know, ten years
ago before I ever met her, I 

1367
01:05:34,207 --> 01:05:36,000
probably be like, no, like, I 
just need to do this. 

1368
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:38,500
So money to this by myself. 
I mean, if I'm by myself, I 

1369
01:05:38,500 --> 01:05:40,800
could focus on everything that I
want to focus on wholeheartedly.

1370
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:45,000
But having people inside, Your 
life that that are not. 

1371
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:47,800
You that think different than 
you has been nothing but 

1372
01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:51,600
advantageous for me. 
It's everything and we were 

1373
01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:54,000
talking about again. 
People that push really hard in 

1374
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:56,100
business. 
Lots of times they do that 

1375
01:05:56,100 --> 01:05:57,900
because they don't want to deal 
with the anxiety of other parts 

1376
01:05:57,900 --> 01:05:59,900
of their life. 
You don't have to look at that. 

1377
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:05,600
But as you say, when you have a 
fulfillment from a relationship,

1378
01:06:05,900 --> 01:06:08,400
when you understand that every 
decision you make affects her 

1379
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:11,100
and your child. 
It gives you a lot. 

1380
01:06:11,100 --> 01:06:14,300
There's the stakes are much 
higher and it makes you again, 

1381
01:06:14,300 --> 01:06:17,800
it makes you truly 80/20 like 
the 80/20 principle, prevails 

1382
01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:22,100
principle is 20% of your actions
create 80% of your outcomes. 

1383
01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:24,700
Now, our base heard that, as 
you've read tempers his bookie, 

1384
01:06:24,900 --> 01:06:27,900
we've all heard that, but 
nobody's actually putting that 

1385
01:06:27,900 --> 01:06:29,500
into play like all these 
Concepts. 

1386
01:06:29,500 --> 01:06:30,800
All these things were talking 
about. 

1387
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:35,100
If they would just be surgical 
with that and look at every area

1388
01:06:35,100 --> 01:06:37,700
of their life and say, okay. 
What's my priority? 

1389
01:06:37,700 --> 01:06:41,200
What's really important? 
Again, her your business, the 

1390
01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:44,100
child, that's on the way and 
then say no bullshit. 

1391
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:46,100
What's the most important thing 
to do here? 

1392
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:51,100
When I'm tired, when you're in 
any, any state you have to ask 

1393
01:06:51,100 --> 01:06:51,900
yourself. 
What do I do? 

1394
01:06:51,900 --> 01:06:55,900
Well in this state, so if you're
tired, what I do, well is I'm 

1395
01:06:55,900 --> 01:06:58,900
able to quickly hack away stuff.
That's not important if I look 

1396
01:06:58,900 --> 01:07:00,200
at my schedule and I'm like, 
listen. 

1397
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:01,400
I have a client called I have 
this. 

1398
01:07:02,900 --> 01:07:04,300
And then, there are these other 
things that are sort of 

1399
01:07:04,300 --> 01:07:06,100
Superfluous. 
I immediately cut those things 

1400
01:07:06,100 --> 01:07:09,200
out because of my fatigue level 
and I have to be completely 

1401
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:11,900
present to that person to that 
client to give them everything. 

1402
01:07:11,900 --> 01:07:13,900
Hmm. 
I owe it to them to do the best 

1403
01:07:13,900 --> 01:07:16,300
that I can. 
I owe it to them to make them a 

1404
01:07:16,308 --> 01:07:18,500
better person. 
Every time we're off that call. 

1405
01:07:19,300 --> 01:07:21,500
But if I'm trying to do a bunch 
of other things, in addition to 

1406
01:07:21,500 --> 01:07:24,600
that, again, it's that drain. 
So, it's so important to really 

1407
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:29,500
have that that notion of Just 
because I do something really 

1408
01:07:29,500 --> 01:07:32,000
well, here doesn't mean that I 
can't apply that to other areas 

1409
01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:34,100
and frankly. 
If you're not, like I can tell 

1410
01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:37,900
entrepreneurially where somebody
is in their development by how 

1411
01:07:37,900 --> 01:07:40,000
much they talk about these 
things outside the business 

1412
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:41,800
because it all they're talking 
about is grinding and how I 

1413
01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:45,200
crush this and I just made a 
20,000 dollar deal here to, or a

1414
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:46,600
million-dollar deal. 
Whatever it is. 

1415
01:07:47,300 --> 01:07:50,600
That's a person that shows me 
that they are not secure enough 

1416
01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:53,900
in their financial Financial 
components to be able to talk 

1417
01:07:53,900 --> 01:07:56,500
about their wife, their kids, 
what they just did, what they 

1418
01:07:56,500 --> 01:07:57,300
want to do. 
What? 

1419
01:07:57,800 --> 01:07:59,400
Their hobbies are. 
It's almost like in martial 

1420
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:00,100
arts. 
When? 

1421
01:08:01,700 --> 01:08:05,300
I went to a Tony, I spoke at 
Tony Bowers event last summer, 

1422
01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:07,200
in Orlando, to all of his 
instructors. 

1423
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:11,200
And you will see some younger 
guys, sort of in the corner, and

1424
01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:13,000
they've got like their blades 
out and they're comparing 

1425
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:14,400
blades. 
And oh, I, this is the way I 

1426
01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:15,400
see. 
This is why I use this one to do

1427
01:08:15,408 --> 01:08:16,800
different things. 
And I'm over there talking to 

1428
01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:20,200
Tony and we're just talking 
about life, and he kind of looks

1429
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:24,600
over and I look over at him to 
at the people that were there 

1430
01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:26,500
and there's nothing wrong with 
that, but it just shows that 

1431
01:08:26,899 --> 01:08:28,700
there are different places of 
development. 

1432
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:32,200
Those were guys that were just 
kind of new to this Arena to 

1433
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:35,899
this idea of carrying a weapon 
being responsible for a weapon, 

1434
01:08:35,899 --> 01:08:37,899
what it would take when you to a
place. 

1435
01:08:37,899 --> 01:08:40,300
Where that's You've done that in
your, you've kind of Master. 

1436
01:08:40,300 --> 01:08:42,300
That idea. 
You don't have to continually 

1437
01:08:42,399 --> 01:08:44,000
talk about it. 
You don't have to pontificate 

1438
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:46,300
about it. 
You can just do other things 

1439
01:08:46,300 --> 01:08:49,000
because you feel secure in this,
whether it be in your business 

1440
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:51,600
space, whether it be in your 
personal relationships Pace, 

1441
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:55,100
even your spiritual space, you 
know, that's how we can get to 

1442
01:08:55,108 --> 01:08:57,700
the next place. 
But if we feel like we're in 

1443
01:08:57,700 --> 01:09:01,700
adequate in those areas, were 
always going to try to beat our 

1444
01:09:01,700 --> 01:09:04,600
chest and round that. 
Yeah, we're talking about that 

1445
01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:08,300
kind of indirectly order today. 
And balance the clothes we wear.

1446
01:09:08,399 --> 01:09:11,899
Where, you know, like I used to,
I see like really take a lot of 

1447
01:09:11,899 --> 01:09:13,500
pride in the clothes in my 
wardrobe. 

1448
01:09:13,700 --> 01:09:17,500
And now we're freakin shorts 
tennis shoes and a shirt every 

1449
01:09:17,500 --> 01:09:19,399
day. 
You know, it's like when you're 

1450
01:09:19,399 --> 01:09:22,300
super confident who you are as a
person, the need to feel 

1451
01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:25,700
impressive to others is 
non-existent. 

1452
01:09:25,700 --> 01:09:27,800
Like, I know who I am. 
Have enough self awareness to be

1453
01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:31,899
proud of who I am, and I don't 
have to like wonder what people 

1454
01:09:31,899 --> 01:09:34,800
think about me. 
I just simply present, myself, 

1455
01:09:35,399 --> 01:09:38,100
confidently and accordingly. 
And then the people that are 

1456
01:09:38,100 --> 01:09:41,500
drawn To the vibe the Persona 
that I put off it. 

1457
01:09:41,500 --> 01:09:44,399
I mean that's Mutual, you know, 
like when you're not so worried 

1458
01:09:44,399 --> 01:09:46,600
about what people think and you 
just simply living your life to 

1459
01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:48,300
the fullest because you're proud
of who you are. 

1460
01:09:48,300 --> 01:09:50,100
And you love the life, you're 
living. 

1461
01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:52,600
I mean people can like pick up 
on that instantly. 

1462
01:09:52,600 --> 01:09:54,200
They see it in the spark, in 
your eye. 

1463
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:58,300
They see it in the vibe, you put
off and honestly, it's so much 

1464
01:09:58,300 --> 01:10:01,000
less exhausting because you have
to constantly be masquerading 

1465
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:02,700
around. 
If somebody you're not, I mean, 

1466
01:10:02,700 --> 01:10:05,500
the people that are doing the 
whole fake, it till you, make it

1467
01:10:05,700 --> 01:10:07,400
concept like that. 
That's super popular in the 

1468
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:09,300
business terminology. 
Is that like a you got to just 

1469
01:10:09,300 --> 01:10:13,300
fake it till you make it like be
I mean, I'm all for living life 

1470
01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:16,800
as if you were like if you are 
not where you want to be then 

1471
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:19,900
live life like you were there. 
There's probably a better way to

1472
01:10:19,907 --> 01:10:22,400
say that but like, you know, put
into action that the person that

1473
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:25,700
you want to because that will 
replicate and become that 

1474
01:10:25,700 --> 01:10:27,800
person. 
But not to the extent that 

1475
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,700
you're having to mask right at 
somebody that you're not and you

1476
01:10:30,700 --> 01:10:33,000
know, it took me a long time to 
have enough stuff for us to be 

1477
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:35,400
able to do that. 
But now that I do it's like it's

1478
01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:38,200
liberating because I don't have 
to expend so much energy. 

1479
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:41,700
In somebody that I'm not and 
people know if they're in that 

1480
01:10:41,700 --> 01:10:43,600
spot still. 
I think we all probably go to 

1481
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:45,500
that spot at one phase or 
another in the beginning, 

1482
01:10:45,500 --> 01:10:48,600
especially but getting to a 
point where you don't have to do

1483
01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:51,000
that is that that's where you 
want to be. 

1484
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,600
For sure. 
There's that it's a meme and 

1485
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:57,500
it's a Jay Z. 
When he was like, broke and he 

1486
01:10:57,500 --> 01:11:00,300
had, like, the all the fake 
chains and like all the fake 

1487
01:11:00,300 --> 01:11:03,800
bling, you know, wearing a fake 
Rolex and stuff trying to create

1488
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:06,000
this Persona and then it shows 
him now he's worth, you know, 

1489
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,200
billions of dollars, I guess. 
And what? 

1490
01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:11,100
I'm wearing a black T-shirt or a
black, you know, long, Sleek 

1491
01:11:11,100 --> 01:11:14,700
kind of t-shirt, 0 jewelry, just
very subtle. 

1492
01:11:14,700 --> 01:11:16,900
And like you said, that's where 
that's where you're out. 

1493
01:11:16,900 --> 01:11:19,200
When you're at this place of 
feeling confident. 

1494
01:11:19,700 --> 01:11:21,900
You don't have to feel this idea
of putting on airs for other 

1495
01:11:21,900 --> 01:11:25,700
people and and frankly, the 
people that are, you know, 

1496
01:11:26,300 --> 01:11:28,100
judging you or whatever. 
It is, their opinion, doesn't 

1497
01:11:28,100 --> 01:11:29,800
matter. 
Anyway, the people that are 

1498
01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:31,700
trying to push stuff on you, the
hardest of the ones that 

1499
01:11:31,700 --> 01:11:34,600
actually matter the least. 
So if you don't like what I 

1500
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:38,500
wear, that's great, like I was 
telling you it's like And my let

1501
01:11:38,500 --> 01:11:42,500
and Andy Priscilla, talk about 
that in art, a, they were like, 

1502
01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:47,900
the people that have suits are 
hired and paid by the guys that 

1503
01:11:47,900 --> 01:11:50,900
wear the t-shirt and the jeans. 
And he's talked about where he 

1504
01:11:50,900 --> 01:11:52,500
just works like a black T-shirt 
jeans. 

1505
01:11:52,500 --> 01:11:54,100
And like, you know, black 
Converse. 

1506
01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:57,000
He'll get his Lambo with his 
wife and they go have dinner. 

1507
01:11:57,100 --> 01:12:00,100
But if you just saw them walking
to the restaurant, you know, 

1508
01:12:00,108 --> 01:12:01,400
he's all tied up and all this 
stuff. 

1509
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:03,600
You'd be like, who's this guy? 
We, he doesn't have enough 

1510
01:12:03,600 --> 01:12:06,400
money, even, you know, get a 
seat here, but yet when people 

1511
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:07,900
know him, all of a sudden, it's 
like You see em. 

1512
01:12:07,900 --> 01:12:12,700
Hey blah, blah blah blah blah. 
So it's very much about having 

1513
01:12:12,700 --> 01:12:14,700
that quality over quantity. 
Right? 

1514
01:12:14,900 --> 01:12:15,800
100%. 
Okay. 

1515
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:17,500
Well, shoot. 
I know you got a client called 

1516
01:12:17,500 --> 01:12:18,900
coming up. 
I don't take all your day here, 

1517
01:12:19,300 --> 01:12:21,200
any parting thoughts? 
What's coming in the pipeline 

1518
01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:24,500
for Humanity and he crazy 
physical or mental Endeavors 

1519
01:12:24,500 --> 01:12:25,200
coming? 
Yeah. 

1520
01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:29,100
I'm doing the SEAL Fit. 
Kokoro Crucible event and at the

1521
01:12:29,108 --> 01:12:32,700
end of April, beginning of May. 
So that's 50 hours straight. 

1522
01:12:32,700 --> 01:12:35,700
There's no sleep. 
And what they're doing is, it's 

1523
01:12:35,700 --> 01:12:39,000
not a, it's not hell. 
It's not how weak, you know, it 

1524
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:41,000
by any stretch of the 
imagination but it's a 

1525
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:44,800
simulation for civilians to have
sort of that feel. 

1526
01:12:45,300 --> 01:12:48,800
So you're being trained by 
actual seals in real time and 

1527
01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:52,500
it's everything from coal, you 
know, ice baths to water torture

1528
01:12:52,500 --> 01:12:56,100
and the surf to doing Ruck, 
marches all night to carrying 

1529
01:12:56,100 --> 01:13:00,200
the boats log PT, you know, all 
and probably a million other 

1530
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:03,500
things that I'm not even aware 
of, but that for me again, this 

1531
01:13:03,500 --> 01:13:05,000
four by four by forty eight was 
a good gut. 

1532
01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:06,600
Check to show me what I could 
work on. 

1533
01:13:08,100 --> 01:13:10,700
And I know that again, I leveled
up from doing the four by four 

1534
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:12,800
by forty eight with you. 
Just recently. 

1535
01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:16,900
I know that I'll also level up 
tremendously because I learned 

1536
01:13:16,900 --> 01:13:18,500
about it from from Heather 
Perillo. 

1537
01:13:18,500 --> 01:13:22,700
The one that was on your show. 
She's amazing and being in a 

1538
01:13:22,708 --> 01:13:28,100
place after that I know is going
to give me a lot of What I have 

1539
01:13:28,100 --> 01:13:30,700
found is that the higher that I 
Elevate myself the better 

1540
01:13:30,700 --> 01:13:33,100
quality clientele, I can attract
the better. 

1541
01:13:33,100 --> 01:13:36,000
I can serve them. 
So for me, this is a great way 

1542
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:39,100
not only to improve myself as a 
person but it improves my 

1543
01:13:39,100 --> 01:13:41,500
business makes me a better 
father a better husband all 

1544
01:13:41,500 --> 01:13:43,600
those things. 
So that's the big thing that I 

1545
01:13:43,608 --> 01:13:48,700
have chambered right now. 
I'll be going to see Jocko in 

1546
01:13:48,900 --> 01:13:51,400
July and Washington is a thing 
called the council. 

1547
01:13:51,500 --> 01:13:53,600
And there's only 20 people 
invited to it. 

1548
01:13:53,900 --> 01:13:55,900
So you're going to be in the 
mountains horseback riding 

1549
01:13:55,900 --> 01:13:58,600
shooting guns. 
Manly things while learning 

1550
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:00,800
about leadership wallet. 
Really truly interacting. 

1551
01:14:01,500 --> 01:14:06,400
And then as in July July and 
then there's the, my speaking is

1552
01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:10,600
my speaking calendars just about
full right now. 

1553
01:14:10,600 --> 01:14:14,100
So after all those things, I'll 
be traveling a lot doing that 

1554
01:14:14,100 --> 01:14:17,100
and them just reaching more 
people on my, get you back on 

1555
01:14:17,100 --> 01:14:19,800
the podcast. 
Talk about so fit and your horse

1556
01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:22,500
back riding adventures with jock
amazing. 

1557
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:25,900
Yeah, man, that of the begin. 
I mean, I've always, I've always

1558
01:14:25,900 --> 01:14:28,600
respected appreciated. 
You brought the table from an 

1559
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:32,400
intellectual standpoint from a 
mindset and growth mindset 

1560
01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:34,500
standpoint. 
I mean you just freaking good 

1561
01:14:34,500 --> 01:14:36,200
dude, man. 
Like you're a good person you 

1562
01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:39,000
put off Good Vibes and you 
Empower people in ways, you 

1563
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,600
don't even know. 
So, keep doing what you're doing

1564
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:43,200
and what people go to find out 
more about you. 

1565
01:14:43,300 --> 01:14:47,000
They can hit me up on Instagram,
LinkedIn, Marcus really 

1566
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:49,500
Sanderson and then they can go 
to my website, Marcus, really 

1567
01:14:49,500 --> 01:14:51,700
samsung.com. 
If you want to inquire about 

1568
01:14:51,700 --> 01:14:53,400
speaking, that's cool. 
If you want inquire about 

1569
01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:57,400
coaching, that's fine as well. 
The idea is I'm just trying to 

1570
01:14:57,407 --> 01:14:59,700
Put out. 
I'm not on there, you know, 

1571
01:14:59,700 --> 01:15:02,600
three times a day like Gary Vee.
But what I put out I try to make

1572
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:06,300
a quality over quantity, as 
always, and the goal is used to 

1573
01:15:06,300 --> 01:15:09,400
help people lean into adversity 
and understand that it's a gift 

1574
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:12,200
because it helps you see where 
your weaknesses is for shoes, 

1575
01:15:12,200 --> 01:15:15,600
you to elevate to the level so 
that you can become the person 

1576
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:19,700
that you want to as you were 
speaking to before, and it's 

1577
01:15:19,700 --> 01:15:22,000
coming either way. 
So, either you prepare for it 

1578
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,700
now, nothing breeds confidence. 
Like preparation. 

1579
01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:26,000
Hmm. 
So if you can prepare for 

1580
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:27,200
adversity, now, again the 
moment. 

1581
01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:30,600
Amore kind of idea. 
It makes you feel more confident

1582
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:34,500
knowing that you can not that 
it's not going to hurt but 

1583
01:15:34,500 --> 01:15:36,400
knowing that you're strong 
enough to endure, whatever, 

1584
01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:39,800
adversity those of you. 
When I've always wanted to ask 

1585
01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:43,700
you about, never ask you this 
when when your parents named you

1586
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:46,600
marks for the Anderson. 
They like sit you down. 

1587
01:15:46,600 --> 01:15:48,200
After you're old enough to 
comprehend what they were saying

1588
01:15:48,200 --> 01:15:50,800
about, look, you're going to be 
this big mindset. 

1589
01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:53,500
Guys, some point. 
This is what your name means. 

1590
01:15:53,500 --> 01:15:56,400
This is who you're named after. 
Just prepare yourself a quarter.

1591
01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:58,700
How'd that pan out? 
My grandfather is the one that 

1592
01:15:58,700 --> 01:16:00,800
named me. 
I was born on the same day that 

1593
01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:03,200
he was. 
So that was my, my father's gift

1594
01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:08,000
to his father to name me. 
And I had no clue who Marcus 

1595
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:10,200
Aurelius was. 
When I was 11. 

1596
01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:13,200
I went and bought his book 
meditations. 

1597
01:16:13,800 --> 01:16:15,000
This is back before the 
internet. 

1598
01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:20,200
I'm 50 years old, guys, and I 
tried to read the book. 

1599
01:16:20,300 --> 01:16:22,400
And for those of you that 
haven't read meditations. 

1600
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:25,800
It's a journal that Marcus 
Aurelius kept while he was on 

1601
01:16:25,808 --> 01:16:27,200
the front lines and the dramatic
Wars. 

1602
01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:31,400
So it was basically him writing 
down things like, you know, is 

1603
01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:35,400
this what you so feared if it's 
in durable than endure it and 

1604
01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:37,000
the first part like heat, the 
first two pages. 

1605
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:38,800
He's talking about from my 
father. 

1606
01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:41,100
I learned this from my uncle. 
I learned this from this person.

1607
01:16:41,100 --> 01:16:44,100
I learned this, it didn't really
read well for an 11 year old and

1608
01:16:44,100 --> 01:16:47,600
it uses a lot of the D, thou 
doth Uncle stuff. 

1609
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:49,000
And I was like, this is way over
my head. 

1610
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:51,500
I don't even like this guy. 
What the hell am I named after 

1611
01:16:51,500 --> 01:16:53,100
him about? 
Because when they would tell me 

1612
01:16:53,100 --> 01:16:55,800
who he was as a kid? 
I don't know what an emperor is.

1613
01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:57,600
They just said, he's like a king
and Me. 

1614
01:16:57,600 --> 01:16:58,700
I was like, I don't feel like a 
king. 

1615
01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:02,600
I actually went by Mark for most
of my younger age, because even 

1616
01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:07,000
Marcus felt like it was too much
gravity for that name, but 

1617
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:09,700
through that stoicism it led me 
to taoism. 

1618
01:17:10,300 --> 01:17:12,100
Because when I went back to the 
next day, to get a different 

1619
01:17:12,100 --> 01:17:13,800
book by Marcus rules are, like 
that's the only book that he's 

1620
01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:15,500
gone. 
As I'm walking down the 

1621
01:17:15,500 --> 01:17:17,900
philosophy section. 
I see the daodejing faced out 

1622
01:17:17,900 --> 01:17:20,800
with a Chinese characters on it,
which reminded me of the 

1623
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:22,400
characters in my martial art 
school. 

1624
01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:27,800
I opened that book up. 
And the first thing that I saw 

1625
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:31,800
was it was its only 83 pages is 
33 chapters right there just 

1626
01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:36,100
like little koans almost and the
book when I open it up and said,

1627
01:17:36,300 --> 01:17:38,600
if you continue to sharpen your 
blade, it will go blunt. 

1628
01:17:39,500 --> 01:17:42,600
And even at 11, I was like, 
okay, I get that, that makes 

1629
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:44,800
sense. 
So, I was able to read that and 

1630
01:17:44,800 --> 01:17:47,900
that led me to better understand
that became my gateway to 

1631
01:17:47,900 --> 01:17:50,300
understand stoicism later and 
Zen. 

1632
01:17:50,300 --> 01:17:53,200
And what I've learned now is 
that these higher levels, all 

1633
01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:55,200
these things are teaching the 
same thing, right? 

1634
01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:58,000
Well, Your philosophy or 
religion, the great ones, teach 

1635
01:17:58,500 --> 01:18:00,700
certain things without any Dogma
attached to them. 

1636
01:18:01,500 --> 01:18:05,200
So I didn't really start using 
the name until after I was hurt,

1637
01:18:05,300 --> 01:18:10,500
come sort of reborn and frankly 
Marcus Aurelius is words and 

1638
01:18:10,500 --> 01:18:14,100
Steven pressfield's words and a 
lot of these words were going 

1639
01:18:14,100 --> 01:18:16,800
through my mind when I was 
injured and it sounds like a 

1640
01:18:16,808 --> 01:18:19,700
bunch of Flowery bullshit when 
you're hurt and you can't walk. 

1641
01:18:19,700 --> 01:18:21,800
And it's like, it's easy for you
to say, if it's in durable than 

1642
01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:24,300
endure it. 
But once I got to a place where 

1643
01:18:24,300 --> 01:18:28,200
I could find that, Septon, stop 
denying what was going on and 

1644
01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:28,800
saying? 
Okay. 

1645
01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:31,900
So what now? 
What is this is my life and I 

1646
01:18:31,900 --> 01:18:34,600
assume that this is it. 
What am I going to do now? 

1647
01:18:36,100 --> 01:18:39,000
It's pretty cool, man. 
Well, you've certainly earned 

1648
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:41,300
the name for sure. 
I mean, I'm sure Marcus ready to

1649
01:18:41,300 --> 01:18:42,900
be looking up at you and be 
like, man. 

1650
01:18:42,900 --> 01:18:47,100
I want a name if this guy loved 
it, man. 

1651
01:18:47,100 --> 01:18:48,700
Love what you're doing. 
Keep doing what you're doing. 

1652
01:18:48,700 --> 01:18:51,900
Keep being alone out there, and 
I definitely feel listen to this

1653
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,100
follow along. 
Make sure you're following along

1654
01:18:54,100 --> 01:18:57,900
with his content for sure. 
And until we meet again man, 

1655
01:18:58,200 --> 01:18:59,700
always a pleasure. 
Absolutely brother. 

1656
01:19:00,100 --> 01:19:01,900
Always a pleasure. 
Thank you saying brother. 

1657
01:19:01,900 --> 01:19:02,300
See you.
