I want to be a motherfucking hustler. You better ask somebody.
What is up guys? You're listening to the MFCEO Project. I'm Andy, I'm your host,
and I am the motherfucking CEO. Guys, what is the motherfucking CEO? What's that about?
If you've been listening to the podcast, you know that being a motherfucking CEO? What's that about? If you've been listening to the podcast,
you know that being a motherfucking CEO is about taking control of your life. It's about taking
control of every decision that you make, taking responsibility for every decision that you make,
every action that you take, and going through life with confidence, with swagger, with the ability to kick some ass
with a big fucking smile on your face. All right. You don't have to own a business. You don't have
to be in a literal CEO, but what you do have to realize is that you are always the CEO of you.
Okay. Today, a special edition Friday fire. Usually we're doing some Thursday thunder
today. I want to do some Friday fire because guess what? I can do whatever the fuck I want to do.
All right. Here's the thing, guys. I got an email today from a kid who asked me a question
and he asked me what book would I recommend that would help him the most with business,
leadership, management, or how to run a business. My response to him was simple. It was
go to fucking Amazon, type in whatever it is that you're looking for, and then look at the fucking ratings and read
every book that has a high rating. Okay. Entrepreneurship guys is not for everyone.
It's the hot thing right now. It is. And I'm talking about literal entrepreneurship,
opening a business. It is the hot thing right now on Instagram, on Facebook, on YouTube. We're bombarded with these
millionaire people who sell you this millionaire dream with minimal effort. Okay. And everybody
thinks they're going to be the next dude selling some information product and making fucking a
million dollars a fucking week, you know, sitting on a beach smoking fucking weed.
All right. That shit just ain't going to happen. Okay. I get asked questions all the time. How do
you know when the right time to jump into businesses? Well, let me ask you this. Why
the fuck aren't you in business already? Because if it was for you, you'd already be in fucking
business. Okay. The right
time to jump is the time when your gut says, I'm going to fucking do this. Okay. And what that
comes down to is what I want to talk about today, which I want to talk about going all in. All
right. So many people these days have this thought that they can test the waters or they can try to be a business
person or they can try to be an entrepreneur. And I'm here to tell you, and anybody who has
built any level of success will tell you this, literal entrepreneurship, aka owning a business, running a business, building a successful business
requires you to go all the fuck in. Okay. Any goal that you want to achieve that's worthwhile
in your life, whether it be, I want to become a doctor and I have to go to school for 12 years,
or I want to become an entrepreneur, or I want to lose for 12 years, or I want to become an entrepreneur, or I want to
lose a hundred pounds, or I want to become a professional athlete. All these big goals require
all in dedication. All right. And most of you motherfuckers have this problem and this perception
that you could try things out and that they're still going to work out. And that's not the way it works.
You look at any person, any person who has achieved greatness in this life from a career
standpoint or a physical standpoint, like I said, professional athletes, president of countries,
Navy SEALs, we could go on and on and on and on. The pinnacle of the pinnacle of the pinnacle,
which I know is what
you fucking want, because why would you be listening to this if you didn't? Any of those
things, guys, require all in effort. I mean, jump the fuck in the pool head first. Don't fucking
worry about the what ifs and make yourself fucking swim. And so many of you guys lack that ability or that will to do that.
And that is always going to keep you held back. That is always going to keep you in the place
of you being uncomfortable. It's always going to keep you in a place of you having regrets.
It's always going to keep you in a place of you wishing you were someone else. And what's worse than that? What's worse than you
wishing you could do something or be something or be someone else than you are?
Life is fucking short, guys. Life is real short. We all know people who had big plans
and didn't get a chance to fulfill them. We all know people who could
have been. We all know people who wanted to be. The world's filled with billions and billions
of those people. You do not wish to be that. And I'm telling you right now, your ability to go all in. And when I say all in,
I mean all the fuck in every moment, every minute, every hour, every day, every week,
every month, every fucking year for as long as it fucking takes for you to get where you're going, you should be consumed with that path.
What you do at night matters. What you do in the morning matters. What you do when your friends
are out drinking matters. What you do on Saturday matters. What you do on Sunday matters. The success clock doesn't give a fuck what day it is.
It's going to run no matter what. And you guys pretend like you can work seven, eight, 10 hours
a day and then spend the rest of your time dicking off and you think you're going to be somewhere
and you're not. You're not. And you're surrounded by people who enable
this thought process. You know, your good friends, your family, people who have accepted mediocrity
as a life. Oh, you know, you don't need to work on weekends. Oh, why do you work so hard at night?
Oh, why do you get up so early and do that? Why do you train so hard?
Why are you eating all that health stuff? Why are you reading all these books when we're out
drinking beer? Dude, you got to spend time with your friends. You got to spend time with your
family. You got to do this. You got to do that. You got to do this, right? We're surrounded by it.
We hear it all the time because people have accepted a path that is
far, far less than you want for yourself. And the most common reason that people don't achieve
what they want to achieve is because they let those comments and those thoughts and those beliefs
infect their brain, which affects their actions and it affects their outcomes.
You guys don't have unlimited time here. Most of you listening to this,
we don't know how much time we have, but most of you listening to this are between the ages of 20
and 35 years old. And if you're not, that's okay. But if you're between the ages of 20 and 35 years old, and you're not willing to go all the fuck in on every single thing that you need to do to get
where you want to be for 10, for five, 10 years, dude, you ain't going to fucking get there.
You might as well just get a job that you like to do, show up, put in your fucking hours and go
home. And there's nothing wrong with that. If you're
happy, if that makes you happy, that's what you should do. But I'm telling you, and I'm speaking
to the people who want more, the people who want to be the fucking pinnacle, the people who want to
be financially free, the people who want to be accomplished, the people who want to make a fucking difference.
You guys are going to have to go all the fuck in. You can't listen to your mom. You can't listen to
your dad. You can't listen to your friends. You can't listen to your best, uh, your best buddy
from high school. You can't listen to the fucking internet. Okay. You can't stick your fucking toe in the pool and say, oh, you know, I don't know.
This kind of feels weird.
No, you have to dedicate every fucking breath, every fucking ounce of energy and every fucking
thought and effort that you possibly have in your heart to becoming what it is you want
to be going all in. Isn't for everybody. Just like building
a business isn't for everybody. But I'm going to tell you guys right now, if you want to get
where I think you want to go, you better learn to get really, really, really used to being
uncomfortable because guys, nothing great comes from a position of
comfort. Everything worthwhile, everything that matters, everything that is great comes from being
in a position of uncomfortable. Nothing worthwhile is easy to get. Nothing worthwhile can you get by not being uncomfortable.
Everything is going to make you uncomfortable.
Get fucking used to it.
And if you can get used to being uncomfortable,
your fucking limits are non-existent.
You guys got to go all in.
You got to understand what that means.
All in is not 50%. All in is not 60 hours a week. All in is not I worked a Saturday twice a month.
All in is not I missed one birthday party. All in is all fucking in. And you either are or you aren't.
