You guys set bigger goals. Your goals got to be like, the goals I have. The amount of progress I've made in my life from where I started to where I am now is not even close to the amount of progress I actually want to make. So when I look at how do I stay hungry, driven, you know, sharp, which I think is what you're asking. My goals are so big that I still feel behind from where I'm at. And I think where people get really messed up is they get to a certain point where they're comfortable, and then they start saying, I've got it made. I can relax. They abandon all the habits that got them to where they are, and then they end up losing because they. You are in a competition, okay? And there's other people playing the game. And a lot of people will say, well, now it's not A competition? No, that is. It absolutely is. If you're in business, it's totally competitive. And the minute you get complacent, you're going to get beat. And so I think the way to trick yourself into not being complacent is to continue to expand your goals to something that will take your whole life to achieve, you know, and then they will say, well, well, then you'll never achieve it. That's right. Because the achieving is not the point. It's the person you become along the way. And it's the process and the standard that you live in line with. And a lot of people don't get that. You know, A lot of people will say, well, I'm just in it for the money. You'll fucking lose, bro. You'll lose because you're competing as people like me that love the fucking war, bro. Like, I love it. Every day I wake up, I'm like, I might be like, fuck, this sucks, but the minute I get out there, I'm fucking trying to kill you. And you know, it's. You either are for it or you're not for it. I can tell you this, every single badass entrepreneur I've ever met, they're straight killers, dude. Like, they do not give a about feeling tired. They don't complain. They don't. And the minute someone else bitches about being tired, they get excited because they're like, I got this smell blood. Yeah, bro. And like, dude, this is the problem with the Internet. The Internet has created this fucking thing where everybody thinks they're an entrepreneur. And like, the truth of the matter is most people just are not wired for it, dude. They're not. And you will have all these coaches out there say, oh, that's bullshit. They're wired for. No, they're doing that to take your fucking money, okay? If you can't show up day in and day out hungry to win on your own without having to be fucking motivated or excited or you won't make it long term, dude. You just won't make it. You gotta have the fire inside of you and that's it. I. I don't know how to explain this to you. I try to explain it to them, but, you know, the statistics back it too, bro. You know, 8% of the people are entrepreneurs now. It's like closer to 10 because of the Internet. But, like, how many of those people stay in the same thing as an entrepreneur for more than 12 months, right? Entrepreneurship is not, you know, running a fucking, you know, coaching scheme. That's not Entrepreneurship, bro, That's easy money that people make by pretending to be something they aren't. You know, we're talking about actually building a product that benefits people that has long term potential. There's not many people that can do that, dude. And there's not many people that can do it for years and years and years and, and by the way, there's not many people that want to do it for years and years and years. It's fucking hard, bro. But there is a segment of people who love that it's that hard and they're fucking insane. I, I don't know what I tell you about my. When you, when I text you, I'm insane. You literally said that I'm insane, bro. Like, and every other motherfucker that I know that operates at a high level, they're insane too. They might, they might hide it better than me. They might like, they might like be really proper, you know? But I promise you, when you get a couple drinks in him and you sit down at the table in my, in my cigar lounge, the do they say the same, bro? They're insane. So are you insane? Probably not. Can you make some money? Yes. Do you have a good grasp of how hard it's going to be? I don't think so. And so that's why I try to tell people the truth, bro, because like, there's so many people out here telling all these people the wrong. That it's going to be easy. And you just got to do this and that and this and you know, it's. You could just be an entrepreneur and kick your feet up and all this. And dude, what happens is, is that people try and then they fail. And then they think, well, how come everybody else is doing this so easily? And then they think it's them when in reality they've been lied to. This is the same thing in the weight loss industry, okay? In the weight loss industry, there's all these products that have come around for years and years and years and years and years that say, take this and you'll get in shape, okay? Every knows that that's not true. Everyone, all right? But they buy the anyway because they're looking for a workaround, they're looking for a hack. They hope that maybe this is the one thing. And these companies know that, okay? So they know that if they promise someone easy results, they will get the money and that the person will actually blame themselves for their lack of results, okay? They're not going to blame the product because they already knew the product wasn't going to work. And they also knew that they ate like while they were taking the product. When in reality, bro, it's just hard, man. It's boring, it's monotonous. It's. It's the hardest thing you could ever do for work and it's not for everybody. So I, you know, it frustrates me because I see a lot of really good people who are really good at what they do fail at being an entrepreneur, when in reality they should have never been one in the first place. Yeah. If you don't have a high tolerance for pain, bro, and you don't have now, you can build that.
