REAL AF with Andy Frisella - 80. #LIVEHARD: In Pursuit Of Your Own Full Potential

Episode Date: October 22, 2020

Have you completed 75 Hard with zero substitutions and zero compromises? If so, you've noticed an increase in your confidence, self-esteem, fortitude, grit, and you do not want to revert to your old habits. So what's next? On today's episode, Andy shares the phases following 75 Hard in the Live Hard program that will help you in your pursuit to reach your full potential.

I told my teacher, dumb bitch, I'm going to get millions. Watch this. In a project living. Damn. Spoke it till existence. Voila. Mode changed to 50. What up?

Got more cars than diddy. I only weigh 180, but my watch cost 250. What's up, guys? It's Andy Purcell, and this is the show for the realest. Say goodbye to the lies, the fakeness, and delusions of modern society. Welcome to motherfucking reality. Guys, today we're going to talk about a lot of reality. And this reality is a little bit different than what we've been talking about where we talk about, you know, what's going on in the world.

The main reality that you have to worry about, that I have to worry about, that we collectively need to be worried about is our own reality and how we take control of that reality. This show is called Real AF because I'm a realist, all right? I don't deny facts. I look at facts. I draw conclusions based on the facts. I make decisions based on those conclusions that lead me to an ideal outcome. Pretty much the opposite of what's going on in the world right now, which is scream and cry and throw a tantrum until we get our way. That's not how we operate here. That's not what I'm about. If you're about that and that's what you're about, you're not going to like the show. I'm just going to tell you that up front. Now, today we're going to talk about reality, our own reality.

And as you guys may or may not know, I have a program that is very popular called 75 hard. Now, if you're unfamiliar with 75 hard, what you're going to want to do is you're going to want to go back and listen to episode number 14. Then you're going to want to come back and listen to episode number 14. Then you're going to want to come back and listen to this. So if you're unfamiliar with the 75 hards, your first time hearing about it, we're not going to get into the X's and O's too much of 75 hard. What we're going to talk about today is the live hard program. All right. The live hard program, as some of you know, is the year long mental development program that 75 Heart is a part of. Okay. And what I want you to think about,

a lot of people think this program is a fitness program or they think it's, you know, a lose weight program. That's not what this is. Will you lose weight? It depends on what diet you follow. Will you get more fit? Yeah, you should if you have the proper guidance to pick the proper diet on this program. But the way most people should think about this is a program program that's going to help you develop the skill set of confidence, grit, self-belief, fortitude, endurance, the ability to persevere. The things that we seem to think are traits that certain people have or don't have. I went my whole life thinking that I didn't have any of these traits until I figured out that they aren't traits, they're actually skills that we develop. And that's what this program is designed to do. It's designed to help you develop the skills

that will then help you become successful at whatever it else is you decide to do. Now, the reason this is important is because most programs give you the map, right? If we go on Google right now and we look at personal development programs or money-making programs or relationship programs or fitness programs, there is an innumerable amount, okay? And most people spend their whole lives going from program to program to program to program, trying to find the right one. And that's really not the way it's supposed to be. That's not why these programs don't work.

The reason these programs don't work is because we lack the discipline. We lack the mental toughness. We lack the capacity and the skill set to see them through. How many programs have you invested thousands of dollars in only to get minimal results in return? Now, if you're honest with yourself, I bet that you know deep down inside, that you didn't give the program the right effort, the right consistency, the right dedication it needed to actually produce the result. And instead of go back and actually give it those things, we decided to look for a new program. This has become an epidemic amongst society. We're looking for the new thing that's going to fit us, that's going to be ideal for us,

that is right for us. When in reality, what we need to learn is how to execute regardless of how we feel. We need to learn how to become mentally tough. And the skills that I just mentioned before, like confidence, grit, self-belief, fortitude, endurance, perseverance, all of these skills are what make up the concept of mental toughness. And when you can develop into a human that has mental toughness, now you're in a position to succeed at whatever path you choose. So how I would say most people should be thinking about this is sort of think of it like this.

It's an Ironman except for your brain. All right. It's going to get you in tune. It's going to get you in a mental place where you're capable to execute and you believe that you can execute, which is going to lead to massive amounts of confidence and fulfillment and happiness in your life. All right. But before we get into what we're going to talk about today, which is the live hard program, you have to understand the part that's gone extremely viral that everybody's talking about is 75 hard, but 75 hard guys is just the beginning. It is the bootcamp, so to speak in this year long program that we call live hard. All right. So I'm going to pick up right where the 75 Hard program leaves off. I'm going to give a brief summary of the program, but then

I'm going to get into detail about the rest of the aspects of the Live Hard program. So assuming you've completed the 75 Hard bootcamp program, you're probably exhausted, but you're probably feeling good. You might have some blisters on your feet. You might be sore. You're definitely probably in better shape. I know you're going to be more confident if you did the program right. You're smarter because you've been developing personally. You're feeling very good. You have a lot of momentum, but the thing is this with that momentum, there's a, there's an inkling, a craving, so to speak, that only people who have succeeded at this program will begin to feel they're going to start to want to be tested more. They're going to start to want things to be a little harder. Okay. They're going to start to want more of a challenge. And that's how, you know,

you've really done something with this program because you're going to crave more, all right? So once you finish 75 hard and you're wondering, well, where do I go from here? Well, this is what we're going to talk about today, all right? So what is the Live Hard program? The Live Hard program is a one-year program. It's comprised of four parts. One, the first part is 75 hard, which you're all familiar with because you went back and listened to episode 14. The second part is phase one. The third part is phase two. And the final part is phase three.

Now, phase one, two, and three are all 30-day programs that are designed to be completed within one calendar year. So, when you start 75 hard on January 1st, you have to complete all three phases by December 31st of the same year, right? So, that's rule number one. Now we're going to get into the specific phases right away. All right. So we've gone through a 75 hard, you know, you understand the concept of picking a diet and sticking to it. Okay. You understand the concept of drinking a gallon of water. You understand the concept of two workouts every day. One of them has to be outdoor regardless of what's going on outside. We understand the concept of 10 pages of reading an actual book, okay? And we understand the concept of taking a progress picture every day. So that is the foundation for all three of the

phases after 75 hard as well. Those elements do not ever change. What does change is the additional elements. And that's what I'm going to talk about right now. So we're going to start with phase one. Phase one can be completed consecutively with 75 hard. Now many people will take a break. The first time I did live hard program, I took a three day break after my 75 hard because I had blisters on my feet that were so bad I couldn't do cardio. So I thought that if I waited for a couple of days that they would get better. They didn't get better. And I just went on with phase one.

All right. And I worked through it. But you can do phase one on day 76. And a lot of people do that because they have the momentum, they're feeling strong, they want to continue. So they go right into it. I feel like that is best, but it's up to you. Okay. There's no rules regarding this. So let's talk about phase one. Now, phase one, like I said, has the elements of 75 hard. Pick a diet, stick to it. One gallon of water, no cheats, no alcohol, two workouts every day, 10 pages of reading,

nonfiction book, personal development book, and a progress pick every day. Now, what is in addition to that? Okay, first off, in addition, phase one has three extra aspects. The first extra aspect is the extra three critical tasks. Okay. Those of you who have listened to my original MFCEO podcast on 75 hard will probably remember my recommendation for the power list, which if you're unfamiliar with the power list, go back and listen to episode number 16 in the Real AF feed. It'll go through this in depth and it'll explain the power list. But basically the power list is a small notebook or journal that is set up that's going to allow you to write your five critical tasks for the day.

So you know what the goals are for your day, for that day to be determined a win or a loss. And if you manage to knock them out, you get a win. If you didn't, you get a loss. It's real simple. Now in the power list, you write down these five critical tasks. These tasks are something that you can accomplish within the day that are required for you to move forward. All right. Don't confuse this with life goals or long-term goals. Your task shouldn't be, you know, become a millionaire. So don't confuse this with habits either. If you make your bed every morning, that's a habit. That's not much of an achievement or even a challenge.

If you include the things that you're already doing on a regular basis, using the power list through phase one, you should be writing down an additional three tasks every single day in addition to the usual five, which you've been doing unknowingly by completing the task of 75 hard for 75 days. Okay, you're going to add three more tasks on top of that of your choosing that are going to move you forward towards what your ultimate goals are. Now, that's the first extra step in phase one of the Live Hard program. The second aspect that's extra above the 75 hard requirements for phase one is 10 minutes of active visualization. Now, most people don't know the difference between a dream and a goal. In their minds, they treat things as dreams, you know, as something they never attempt to go after. These are the type of people that kind of walk by a nice home and say, wow, it's a beautiful home.

Must be nice to live there. And you can tell by the way they speak, you know, not only to themselves, but, you know, verbally, so you can hear them, that they can't really see themselves obtaining these kinds of goals. Someone who understands goals would walk by that same house and imagine themselves in it. Instead of saying, it must be nice to live there, they'd say something like, I'm going to live in a house like that one day. All right. That's where we're trying to get you to be. Okay. They see themselves drinking a cup of coffee on the balcony in the morning and grilling on the patio with their friends in the evening. All right. With active visualization, you are meant to turn your dreams into actual reality. That's what this part of the

program is designed and geared towards making you improve. It helps you see the vision for yourself at the highest levels of success in your life and forcing you to push towards that vision. Because guys, the reason most people never get anywhere in life isn't because they're scared of the work. It's because they never make a decision about where they're going to be. So the techniques used for this task are going to be different for a lot of you. Some of you have a more visual mind and some of you don't.

It's not that easy for everybody, myself included. In fact, most people blow this off as like a super easy task, only discover it the minute they sit down. They either can't think of anything at all or their mind is instantly clouded with a hundred other things. And instead of focusing on that single vision, 30 seconds into it, they're seeing a picture of their ex-girlfriend or they start thinking about, you know, that doctor's appointment they need to go to tomorrow or that run they got to make to Home Depot, okay? If that's you, that's important to start over at that point where you get distracted and start focusing again, all right? These 10 minutes should be completely focused on the vision for your life.

If you find yourself struggling, there's a tool that I use called a vision board. It's very simple. A lot of you guys have heard of this before, and you can create one on corkboard or in a notebook or even a document on your computer. I prefer to make this a physical board that you can see at your desk at all times. A lot of people put this on their computer, they close that file, they never see it again. That's the hard part about doing it on your computer, all right? But basically it's this, find some images online from a magazine of things that you like and put them on your board. This gives you something tangible to look at and this tends to be a lot easier for those who are less visual and it's much easier to focus on.

Okay. Things that will go on this board. All right. Your dream house. All right. The qualities of your ideal spouse, maybe a picture of someone with the body you'd like to have. Maybe something that represents your dream job. Maybe some cars, maybe a plane, maybe, you know, who knows what it is. Maybe a picture of happy families Maybe it's picture of destinations you want to go to Everyone's priorities are different. So make sure that you can really see yourself in this life Okay, i've had pictures of all of those things that I mentioned above and all of those pictures have helped me achieve that In reality that is my real life now, okay?

So regardless of what it is, I want you to be true and be real and be sure to be able to see yourself inside of this life. And whatever that life is, we're going to dedicate 10 full minutes every single day to envisioning yourself there, all right? Now, I do this before I go to bed. Now, I'm going to warn you, if you wait before you go to bed to do this, and it's not something that you are consciously doing, it's easy to forget about. So make sure you set an alarm, make sure you do what you need to do to not forget it. Otherwise, we got to start over on day one of phase one. Now,

that's another thing about this that I want to cover is anytime you screw up during any of the phases, including 75 hard, you go back to the beginning of that phase. So if you fail on day 72 of 75 hard, you go back to day one. If you fail on day 17 of phase one, you go back to day one of phase one. You don't go back to day one of 75 hard. Okay. Now

the only exception to that is phase three. And you're going to find out why in a minute, you can't go back to day one of phase three. If you fail in phase three, you fail the whole year of live hard. I'm going to talk about that in a minute. But so the first two aspects of phase one are the three extra critical powerless tasks and then the 10 minutes of visualization. So the third aspect of phase one is a five minute cold shower. Now, I'm not going to lie. This is really hard for a lot of people at first.

It was really hard for me. I thought that I would hate it. The truth is, is after about a week of it, I started to like it. And it's something that I try to incorporate on a regular basis, even when I'm not doing the program, because it really does provide me a lot of benefits. It helps me recover. It helps me sleep better if I do it before bed. It helps me wake up better if I do it first thing in the morning. But here's the deal, five minute cold shower every single day. Now, you don't have to just jump in, right?

And have it on cold. A lot of people think you have to make it as cold as possible and jump in and flail around, try to catch your breath. You don't have to do that. All right. What I do is I take a regular shower and then I turn the shower all the way to cold after I'm done washing my hair and doing all my stuff. And I get in the shower for five minutes after I've done that. Okay. So go ahead and take your regular shower. But at the end of it, turn the temperature all the way down and needs to be cold, not kind of cold. It needs to be uncomfortably cold. Um, I turn it all the way to cold. All right. As far as it'll go. And standing there with like your foot in the water, that doesn't count, all right? So get underneath the water, let it get your breath,

and you're going to start to acclimate. You're going to start to control your breathing, all right? And you're going to start to go somewhere mentally. And a lot of times you can go to a really good visualization place during this time. That's something that I do a lot. Now, it doesn't count towards my 10 minutes of visualization, but anytime you can see yourself in a better reality, I think it's good for you. So, you know, there's really no way that is easy to do this. This is, it's a hard thing to do and most people aren't going to like it, but mental toughness is born and fostered in trials like this. Okay. You cannot become mentally tough by doing comfortable things. So five minutes, cold shower, you're going to come

out focused. You're going to come out energized. And the best thing about the cold shower is that everything else will seem easy. All right. So that's phase one guys, everything from 75 hard with the critical tasks, the active visualization and the cold shower to top it off. All right. So that's phase one guys, everything from 75 hard with the critical tasks, the active visualization and the cold shower to top it off. All right. For 30 days. Now we're going to talk about phase two. Now phase two is actually exactly the same as 75 hard, only it's compressed into 30 days. Stick to a diet, no alcohol, no cheat meals, a gallon of water, two workouts a day. One has to be outdoor for 45 minutes each, 10 pages of required reading every single day, personal development book, nonfiction, and take a progress pick every day.

It's exactly the same, but here's the difference, okay? This is what makes it different. You are required to wait 30 days between ending phase one and starting phase two. All right. I told you earlier, there's no time requirement between 75 hard and phase one, the 30 day rest period between phase one and phase two is mandatory. Now it doesn't mean that not to work out. It means it doesn't count. All right. And people will bitch and moan about this. And that's the point. They want to attack the next program. They want to jump in while they have the momentum. They want to jump in while they have the structure and they have everything rolling. But what they don't realize is that this rest period is going to do something to you. And for some of you, it's going to break you. At first, you're still going to be doing all your stuff, but then,

you know, you kind of start to let the small stuff slide. And because you aren't on the program of rules, you have a few drinks, a few nights out a week, a couple of cheap meals here and there, maybe drop the second workout, maybe take a few days off in between. You see what I'm getting at here, guys? This is how the slide happens. And our goal is to learn how to recognize the slide and be able to get back on track. This whole program is designed to build mental toughness because some people, most people, guys, honestly, are wired this way where they can kick ass when they have a program to follow. But then the moment they've got to decide what to do on their own and they don't have someone or a program rigidly outlining their day-to-day life and they have no regulations, what do they do? They implode, man. They go off the rails. Okay. In other words, if you handled running for 45 minutes through a

tornado, but that the minute I take away the rules, you can't handle yourself. That doesn't sound like a very mentally tough person to me, does it? I know it doesn't to you either. Okay. So the real factor that we're working at here is turning this from a program that you feel you need to complete into a lifestyle where you have the skills to push through, whether you're guided by regulations or not. It becomes self accountable. All right. So that's it. That's phase two. It's real simple. All right. Finish phase one, you wait 30 days, start phase two. You can wait 60 days. You can wait 90 days. It doesn't matter. It just has to be completed within one calendar year. All right. But I'm going to tell you, most people will agree

with me here. Phase two is actually the hardest phase because of this small little break that we're required to take. But you'll also gain the most out of it because it creates the strength needed to redirect when you're off the rails. All right. Because that's what mentally tough people do. Mentally tough people hold themselves accountable, recognize when they're off the rails, all right? Because that's what mentally tough people do. Mentally tough people hold themselves accountable, recognize when they're off the rails, and have the power to get right back on. And that's what phase two is designed to teach you, among a bunch of other things as well.

If you want to know what else it's designed to teach you, I've got a whole book coming out on this. It's going to come out early 2021. So we talked about 75 Hard being the bootcamp for the Live Hard program. We talked about phase one. We talked about phase two. All right. Now we're going to talk about phase three. Now phase three is a lot different because if you fail during phase three, you fail the entire year. Okay. Here's the kicker about phase three. It has to be completed the last 30 days leading up to your anniversary date of when you started 75 hard. So if you started 75 hard on March 5th, 2020, the soonest

you could start phase three would be February 5th, 2021. Okay. Now moving into phase three, you know, you're going to see a lot of the benefits that the Live Hard program has helped you cultivate. You're going to see your confidence. You're going to see your grit. You're going to see your fortitude, your perseverance, your self-belief, your self-esteem. All of these things are going to have you feeling really good. Okay. You're learning to actively visualize your goals. All right. You may not be excited for the showers, but you realize the purpose they serve and the purpose they serve is more beneficial than the pain they cause. So what could we possibly add to this

program to make it more intense? You know, a lot of people think, oh, an extra workout. No. Five extra minutes in the cold shower. No. Five more pages. No. These final additions, oh, an extra workout. No. Five extra minutes in the cold shower. No. Five more pages. No. These final additions, guys, are going to be a little different. And they're going to bring you out of your comfort zone very, very quickly and immediately and consistently over 30 days. Okay. So the first one in phase three, which encompasses all of the five elements of 75 hard, and then also the cold shower of phase one. Now we're going to add something called the random act of kindness. Now I love this one because until now it's been all about us, right? But with this task, you're going to have to really think out of the box and do some good every single day and I want you to journal this

And keep your experiences under your power list write down the random act of kindness you perform for that day now There's plenty of things you can do to get your random act of kindness in for the day They don't have to be these massive gestures. I want them to have a positive effect on you But this isn't a moment for a humble brag, right? This isn't about posting on Instagram about how good of a person you are. This is about actually making it about the other person. Okay. So now here's some examples of what a random act of kindness would be. Things like donating, things like volunteering. Some of the things that I've done through this is like take a trash bag along my cardio

route for the outside workout and clean up. All right. This one's great because you can get two birds with one stone. All right. These things don't have to be crazy or time consuming either. Could be paying for someone's meal or paying for someone's coffee, picking up an extra meal and dropping it off to a homeless person, tutoring someone, helping someone that you wouldn't normally make the time to help. There's no end to the

possibilities here, but this task should start to open your eyes and it will start to open your eyes to a very important concept that mentally tough people have, which is gratitude. You're going to be cultivating gratitude and passing it on to those around you. Some of the people who have done this before, they volunteered at dog shelters. Why not play with some puppies while knocking out a task? Okay, there's lots of things you can do here, guys. But the general guideline is this.

Get creative, mix it up, and do good shit. Don't do the same thing over and over again. You're not challenging yourself to think beyond the one or two things you picked. Okay. So, and for those of you with financial means, buying a coffee for someone behind you to drive through every day, isn't going to teach you anything. Okay. It's easy to do that for some of us.

That's not the point of this. Don't just write a check, take action. All right. The random act of kindness is to teach you gratitude and the power of putting out positive and receiving positive. All right. This is a huge universal law. And I want you to take the opportunity of this program to ingrain it into you. All right.

The second aspect of phase three is talk to a stranger. Now, in my experience and most people's experience, this seems to be the hardest task for everyone to complete. Even with the addition of the random act of kindness, people find a way to keep to themselves, all right? And this forces you out of your comfort zone. You can't live in this bubble forever. All right. This has to go beyond a greeting. When you meet someone full on conversation and dialogue guys, not just, Hey, how are you doing? As you pass through the grocery store. Now, a lot of you guys are terrified right now. Cause you're thinking, well, gosh, I'm an introvert. You know, I can't do that. No, look, I'm an introvert too. On the surface,

I understand I may seem like the world's most outgoing guy, but I'm just like you. Okay. This is something I had to teach myself. This is a skill and eventually it becomes second nature. And I want this to become second nature for you too, because it forces you to build confidence and use it. Most of the time, the initial greeting, guys, the anxiety of approach is the hardest part. And while people won't admit it, it's usually pretty nice to talk to someone. So both you and the person you engage with will walk away thinking, you know, man, that was a nice conversation as you walk away. Okay. I bet they go home and they tell someone about it.

Hopefully you learn something from it. So the next time you jump in an Uber, leave your phone in your pocket, ask your driver about themselves. Where are they from? They do anything else? Any hobbies, a family. Okay. Some of you have spent your whole adult lives in your house, keeping to yourselves.

You talk to your neighbors when you see them out in the yard, but not really. And a lot of you guys are probably thinking, how the fuck does this fit in? Like, how does this fit in? I'm going to tell you how it fits in. So in business, and this is just a little thing I'll tell you that we're going to explain more in the book. In business, you have to be able to introduce yourself to people. Okay. In life, if you want to find a mate, if you want to find a spouse, if you want to have friends, guess what? You've got to at least be somewhat functional at talking to people. Now, I was really bad at this. This is something I struggled with for a long, long time. And the way that I got over it and the way that I fixed this in myself and developed this into a skill of being outgoing versus a personality trait was I forced myself to go to the local grocery store and talk

to three new people every single day. Now, in this program, all you have to do is talk to one. But I did this for about a year where I would go to the grocery store every single day and I made it part of my power list where I had to talk to three new people. And I can tell you guys that one exercise has made a world of difference for me. It's made a world of difference in my relationships. It's made a world of difference in my friendships. It's made a world of difference in my business. It's earned me millions and millions and millions of dollars. All right. So as hard as it seems for some of you guys who are introverts, this is a tremendously valuable exercise for you to master. All right.

So real quick, I'm going to run down the Live Hard program point by point. Okay. 75 hard, 75 days of these tasks. One, pick a diet and stick to it. Okay. No cheap meals, no alcohol. Two, drink a gallon of water every single day. Three, two workouts of at least 45 minutes each per day, not back to back. One of them must be outdoors. Both can be outdoors, but one must be. 10 pages of reading every day, nonfiction, not 50 shades of bullshit. We're talking about things that can actually help you improve. And then a progress picture every day. Those are the five basic components of 75 hard. Then we're going to move into phase one and you can move into phase one either immediately or you can wait. All right. And phase one is going to take the first

five aspects of 75 hard. And for 30 days, we're going to add more. We're going to add three extra critical powerless tasks, which if you're unfamiliar with the powerless, again, go back to episode number 16 of the real AF and you can learn all about the PowerList. The next aspect of phase one is 10 minutes of active visualization. Okay. And the next aspect of phase one is a cold shower for five minutes. Okay. Then we have a minimum of a 30-day break. And then after the 30 days, whether it could be 60 days or 90 days, it's up to you.

You can then start phase two. Now, phase two is the same exact program as 75 hard with none of the additional tasks that we added in phase one. Okay. The hard part here is actually the break. And you're going to find that out. Then after you complete phase two, then we move into phase three. Now, phase three includes two of the previous tasks from phase one. Those two are the three critical powerless tasks in addition to the five original,

like we spoke about. If you need to go back and listen, it's episode 16 on Real AF. It'll explain to you what the powerless tasks do and how to use them. With addition, the cold shower, then the random act of kindness, then talk to a stranger, meet a new person every single day. So that's phase three. Now, the thing about phase three is it leads up to the anniversary of the day that you started 75 hard. So it's actually the last 30 days up to the first day you started 75 hard. So it's actually the last 30 days up to the first day you started 75 hard. This is a year long program. And phase three is super important because if you fail it, you fail the entire year. All right. Now live hard should be seen as a program that helps keep you sharp. I've made a commitment to do the Live Hard program

every single year, because I know if I do the Live Hard program every single year, I'm going to be operating at my maximum potential, which I'm committed to do, okay? So this is a program that I intend on doing every year, and I hope you do as well. It's something that we can do,

and we can keep our game at the top. We can keep getting better and keep pushing the limits. Now, a couple notes that I want you guys to get around your head, all right? If you come to a point where you don't know what to do and you find yourself pondering a decision and that decision is A, B, C decision, the answer is always going to be the hardest part, okay? Whatever path ends up being the hard one is the one you should take on this program. This program is about getting you to develop

the mental skills necessary to win in life consistently whenever you decide to win at life, at anything, okay? You can't do that by taking the easy path. You've done that your whole life anyway. It's time to get serious, get your shit together, and realize the only way you're going to ever become that person that you want to become is by picking the hardest path possible consistently, especially in this program, all right? And here's the other thing. A lot of people like to, you know, hem and haw and, you know, wonder if this counts or if that counts, or does this count on the program or does that count on

the program? Let me tell you something right now. If you have to ask, it doesn't count. That's the rule. Okay. So if you even have to ask if it counts, it doesn't count. So if you want it to count, I wouldn't ask. I would just do what you know needs to be done. Okay. Now, don't forget, we have a number of tools that will help you with this program. We have the 75 hard app. It's an iTunes store on Android. It's one of the top paid fitness apps. It's five bucks.

It'll track everything for you to help remind you to stay on track. All right. I think it's five bucks well spent. On Instagram, Facebook, Facebook use the hashtag 75 hard live hard hashtag 100 to zero. Those are hashtags. I personally go through every single day that will help you stay connected to the community. These people who are bettering themselves, which is more important than ever in today's world. We have a situation where not everybody is bought into being better versions of themselves by willing to put in the work. All right. It's becoming an endangered

species. But for us, those of you who are willing to put in the work in order to produce the result, those hashtags are very valuable. Again, 75 hard, live hard and a hundred to zero. Okay. I love seeing the progress everyone is making and I love to interact and talk to you guys. And lastly, there's the book. Okay. There's the 75 hard book, which basically covers the 75 hard, the guts of it, but why behind it, it's going to answer a lot of questions. You know, some people, they don't do well blindly following a set of rules without knowing why they actually have to do the set of rules. Now, there's two schools of thought here. First off, you can do 75 hard for free without spending a dollar. You can go listen to the podcast. You're not required to buy anything. And you can discover

what this program is going to do for you. Or you can buy the book. You can read the book, and it'll tell you what it's going to do for you. And then you can be amazed at how accurate it actually is. All right. So you get to choose which experience you want to have. There is no right or wrong experience. However, most people who I've talked to enjoyed reading the book even after they did the program because they were surprised at how well it aligns with what they experienced. So the book can be found on my website, andyforsella.com under the 75 hard tab in the shop as well. So that's it guys. So we have 75 hard, and then we have live hard. 75 hard is a part of live hard followed by phase one, two,

and three, each of which are 30 days. And this entire program is one year. And you should look at this program as an Ironman for your brain. People who complete this program are going to be stronger mentally. They're going to be more disciplined. They're going to have developed the skills of confidence, grit, self-belief, fortitude, endurance, perseverance. Okay. All of these things, they look and see that other people have and can't figure out why they don't have it well the reason you don't have it is because you haven't cultivated it yet people are not born with these skills they're not born with these quote-unquote gifts in fact they're not gifts they're skills all right so let's get to work
