Episode Date: May 9, 2019

If you could take a time machine back to your biggest win in life…would you? If you’re thinking “Of course! I'd love to rocket back to Yesteryear to relive the Glory Days," then your chances of being a real success in life are probable zero. ZERO. Truly successful people have a completely different mindset. They are guided by a major rule in life: The 24-Hour Rule of Bragging. This rule protects you from mediocrity and helps you move on from massive mistakes.

I can stack them hundreds to the roof. I ain't stopping till they stack to the moon. Without me, my family wouldn't have food. Anybody go against me, gotta lose. What is up, guys? You're listening to MFCEO Project. I'm Andy. I'm your host. I am the motherfucking CEO. You've heard this 4,000 million fucking times, so I'm just gonna be real quick. Today is Thursday Thunder, and I'm gonna get into it right now. That was weird. I kind of like it though something different yeah it's impressive it's impressive guys what is up look like I said when I was being the micro machine man a second ago today is Thursday Thunder and I do have something to talk to you about. Actually, it's a concept. It's a rule that you should live by all the time. And I'm going to talk about it in just a second. Before I do,

a lot of you guys might be here for the first time and you're wondering what is a MFCEO. Believe it or not, even though we've been the number one business podcast pretty much for the last, I don't know, four or five years. Consistently, people still don't understand what MFCEO means, so let me lay it out. It means motherfucking CEO, all right? And CEO, I'm not sure what that stands for. One of you guys can let me know, but I just like the first part, okay? The truth is is guys, this is a business, a personal development, sometimes humorous podcast where we talk about all the things that you need to do to really succeed in life. Not the shit that you're going to hear from people in school or online who are trying to make a living selling you information about being successful.

I've actually built a few companies and I'm really proud of that. Some very successful quote unquote companies that I've spent the last 20 years of my life basically living, breathing, eating, sleeping, and shitting this entire business world. And, you know, I'm one of the few guys out there who has built a company and been successful pre-social media and post-social media. And we talk about how to do these things. Now, guys, I'll be the first one to tell you I'm not perfect. There's a lot of shit I don't know. But the things I do know and the things I share, I know very fucking very fucking well all right and today is one of those days um that I'm going to share something that will change your life so bear with me now

I give away all this valuable content Vaughn what episode is this 301 I think it's 301 301 episodes down you know what that means it means I give away a lot of free shit and you know what else it means it means that you guys are listening and you know what else it means it means i appreciate you a lot which is why i don't run ads why i don't take money from advertisers and i could be making an extra seven figures just running ads based on our podcast ranking but i don't because i don't want to clutter up all the bullshit like everybody else does. And I want to cut straight to the cheddar, the cheddar, cheddar, cheddar, cheddar, cheddar, cheddar. I feel a song coming on about the cheddar. Going to get some cheddar cheese, going to put it on my sandwich. Wait, no, I'm not because I'm on 75 hard. But anyway,

the fee here, guys, is this. I do have a fee. The fee is this. If you enjoy the podcast, if you get value, which today you will for sure, and pretty much every day you will for sure. I ask that you share it, you know, make a post, tell a friend, bring me one person, man. You know, one person who's like-minded, who's trying to kick ass, who's trying to dominate and who doesn't necessarily know where to get the right info from. You know, when that conversation comes up, you know, I'm grinding, I'm trying to work, I'm trying to business, trying to be more successful. Dude, hook them up with the MFCEO project. You're doing them a favor. You're doing me a favor.

I do this for free for y'all. And I think that's the least I could ask. So I asked for that fee. And so if you could do that, I would really greatly appreciate it. I know a lot of you do this consistently. Just to clarify, the fee is per episode. It's not like listen to 300 episodes, refer one friend. Today's episode, a friend. Next episode, a friend. 47 episodes, 47 friends. I think that's a fair deal, don't you? Especially because the information is going to make you money. So that's what I ask. And I think it's fair. And I appreciate that you guys do that. So now, enough of the rambling. Dude, have you guys, and I know you have, I don't even know why I'm saying have you guys,

but you know that one person, guys, that you know in your life, the guy or the girl who is constantly talking about what they used to be, the dude who's out of shape and whose life is a complete shit show, and he's talking about how he threw the touchdown pass to win the high school game okay the chick who is an assistant manager at some

rundown department store at the mall and she's out of shape she's miserable she spends all her free time keeping up with the kardashians quote unquote and she always likes to remind people that she was the homecoming queen you know these these people, don't you? We know a lot of them. In fact, that's most people. The car sales guy who displays the sales award that he got in 1978. The lady who tells everybody she got the district teacher of the year in 2004, but she's fucking sucked ever since.

The actor who won the Academy Award in the first movie they ever made and hasn't done shit since that. You know those kind of people because that's most people. And then there's people that are different. There's people like my brother, Sal. Okay. A lot of you guys know him. He's at Mr. Frisella on Instagram. Guys, you guys see, follow me. You know, we make fun of each other a lot. We tease each other and I'm, I'm pretty hard on him and he's pretty hard on me back. That's what brothers do. To be completely honest, you guys are lucky that you haven't seen us beat the shit out of each other because that happens about every 60 days. All right. But that's how we roll. That's

what Frisellas are like. And if we rip on you, we make fun of you. We like you. All right. And that's how we roll. That's what Frisellas are like. And if we rip on you, we make fun of you, we like you. All right. And that's our way of showing affection. But I want to tell you a couple of things about my brother, because while I do make fun of him a lot, there's some things that I think you need to know. And I think it sets an amazing example for what you should be doing as well. And some things that you don't know about him, because he will not talk about them. All right. Sal was an amazing athlete, amazing athlete. I'm talking world-class athlete. You guys don't understand that. You guys know he's competitive. You know, he's tough. You know, he's strong. You know, he's fast, but I don't think you ever understand how good he really was.

Every single sport that he ever played, he fucking dominated everyone, okay? But he doesn't talk about it. He was the starter on his baseball team in college, but he doesn't talk about it. In fact, he was an All-American baseball player in college, but he doesn't talk about it. In fact, he was an all-American baseball player in college, but he doesn't talk about it. He would have for sure been a major league baseball player if he hadn't have broken his leg in a game. And if you don't believe me, go to YouTube, type in Sal Frisella home plate collision and watch the video. And I think you'll understand why he had to stop playing, but he doesn't talk about it. Okay. He was the number one salesperson at Johnson and Johnson Ethicon in the world, in the world, but he doesn't talk about it. Why doesn't he talk about this

shit? Because it happened years ago, years ago, but you know what? It wouldn't have mattered if it happened months ago. It wouldn't have mattered if it happened weeks ago. It wouldn't have mattered if it happened yesterday. Because truly successful people know and understand there's a statue of limitations on talking about the glory days. They follow this rule, and this rule will change your life, okay? I call it the 24-hour rule of bragging. You can talk about what success you have today, but tomorrow, it's over.

It's history. It's irrelevant. Average people like to talk about what they did in 1980-fucking-three. Successful people don't talk about what they did in 1980 fucking three. Successful people don't talk about what happened in 1980 fucking three or even yesterday. In fact, most successful people have a hard time even remembering the accomplishments that they made in the past. They think of success in terms of present tense.

They think of it in terms of present tense. They think of it in terms of today. They think of it in terms of right now, not I used to dominate. I used to be good. I used to be great. It's I am dominating. I am great right now. Average people use past success to feel good about themselves so they can let up on the gas and half-ass their way through the rest of their life. And guys, that is no way to live. Now, I need to clarify something. Yes, it does help if you have a history of winning. It does help if you have a history of dominating. It gives you the confidence that you'll be able to do it again and again and again. It gives you the confidence and the belief that you're capable

of anything. But the only thing successful people really use from the past is momentum. They've strung together a series of victories and they are going to keep that streak going no matter what. And momentum, guys, is a powerful thing because as long as you focus on succeeding now, you're going to be able to keep that momentum, which is going to continue to push you further down the path that you're trying to go today. And like I said, guys, that's what truly successful people do. That's how they think and that's how they operate. They put the focus on today. The defined success in the present tense,

they have 24 hours to beat their chest and say, yeah, I'm fucking great. But after that, dude, they don't talk about it. They aren't going to rest easy because of their past successes because they were in Forbes one time or they made $1 million or they made a hundred thousand dollars last year. They don't talk about that shit. Oh, and by the way, there's another benefit to this mindset. Suppose you made a shit show of your life. Suppose you fucked up

your high school years. Suppose you made a wreck of the large portion of your life that has happened up until this point. Guess what? Who the fuck cares? That was yesterday. Today is what matters. Who you were yesterday, who you were the last 30 years or 20 years or 10 years or 40 years or 80 years is not who you are now. That was yesterday. Failures are past tense. Past successes are past tense. There is no different. Both are irrelevant other than the case of what momentum they create. Now, if you have lost for the last 30, 40, 70 years, you're going to have to switch the momentum, which is why I created the 75 hard program. Believe it or not. A lot of you guys keep saying, Oh, it's fitness. No, it's not fucking fitness. This is a momentum changer. This is about changing from who you were to who you want to be in 75 fucking days. And if you want to learn more about that, you can go listen to the podcast. But guys, the point is this domination's about today. You got 24 hours to

enjoy your win 24 hours to feel great about yourself, but tomorrow you've got to earn it all over again. And when you adopt the 24 hour bragging rule, Okay. And a lot of you guys sitting right now, you're saying, Oh, well, I'm not a bragger. Well, fuck dude. Then don't brag. I don't give a fuck, but just don't talk about it at all. Let your action speak. I don't care. I like to talk shit. I like to rub it in people's face a little bit. That's me. Maybe that's not your style, but I can tell you this. I used to have the style that you have, and it wasn't as fun as the style of rubbing it in people's face for 24 fucking hours. That's just me being real. All right?

Everybody else is going to say, oh, do it for yourself and blah, blah, blah. Fuck that, dude. Hey, everybody, look at me. I'm winning. Fuck you. That's what I think. Okay? Especially the motherfuckers that used to make fun of me and pick on me and trash me and this and that.

And you could say that's insecure. You could say that's petty. I don't give a fuck. I'm happy to be both because I'm having a great fucking time. All right? Here's the reality, guys. Stop hanging your hat on the fucking high school football game, on the homecoming queen,

on that hundred pounds you lost five years ago but then gained it all back. Nobody fucking cares and it's irrelevant. Start focusing on today. If you have a big win, post about it. I want to see it. Tag me in that motherfucking post. I'll support you. I'm happy for people that win, but I don't want to see you posting about it every fucking throwback Thursday for the next seven fucking years. If you do that shit, I just block you for being a loser. Okay?

We are here to win. We are here to progress. We are here to fucking dominate. And the only way you can do that is by letting go of who you were and becoming who the fuck you were meant to be.
