I have to be really good to me. And for 39 years, I was really, really bad to me. And I talked bad to me and my mind was a trash can, which is why I ruined everything that got in front of me. And my intentions were all about making money because I thought when I was young, because we were poor, if we just made money, we would be successful.
And then my wife explained the definition of success is getting it all. We need to be close to God. You need to be a great father. You need to be your children's hero. I want to have a husband I admire and I look up to. That's what I want. I want not you to motivate the sales team. I love that. I want you to go to work and come home and be a winner.
And I want to look in your eyes and know that you gave it all you got. That's what I want. I married a winner. But also I want you to come home and motivate the damn family. How about that?
And I'm just like, anyway, so that was when it all changed. And, uh, you know, I'm sure you guys can relate with.
Yeah, dude. And listen, I say this all the time because this will set the foundation for everything because there will be people that maybe will watch this and they're going to be like, dude, that guy's a fraud. No, no. Watch. I love it. Listen to me. Here's what's wrong with the world. Okay. When someone decides to change their life, we should stand by them and help them change their life.
Yeah, because if you would have met me back then, I'm going to be honest with you, you wouldn't have liked me. I didn't like me.
I didn't like me. I didn't know I didn't like me. Lost people don't know they're lost. So people are like, dude, I learned that in 2015. I'm like, bro, I hated that guy in 2015. If you would have met him, I hated him too. But dude, come meet me now. Come shake my hand now. Come talk to me now. That's all that matters.
And that's the problem is that like I tell women all the time because like I'm really big on the family values of marriage and I'm like hunting down these great leader men that don't know they're great leader men yet. And I'm telling the women, I'm like, listen to me, you're a man. You want him to change? Stop reminding him of who he used to be. Period. Okay. Listen to me.
If I tell my kid when he screws up, you're a bad kid. But I want you to be a good kid. It's not going to work. You've owned him and labeled him as a bad kid. I tell my wife, you can't get historical with me. You can't. I'm a man. I screw up all the time. But you got to remind me. Someone has to be reminding me who I am. And I'm trying my hardest to do that for me.
But when you see a man trying to change or even a woman trying to change, when someone's trying to change, their partner needs to say, hey, look, that's not who you are. What you just did isn't you. OK, let me tell you who you are. You're like this. You're like this. You're a leader. You make good decisions. You know, you have to do that. And that's why everybody needs a coach.
And anyway, so I just want to tell you that, like anybody who's watching this, people are going to say, oh, well, I saw this thing. Yeah, it's all true. It's probably 10 times worse. Everything you found. But that's the power in like being a reborn again Christian or. whatever faith anybody believes in, like changing.
So, well, so you get these dopamine hits, right? When you do something and then, so making money was like a dopamine hit for a long time. But then the second you cash the check, it's gone. Um, And then I hunt it for 30 more days. And then my pay cycle comes and I get that dopamine hit. And then I'm back on the hunt again. I'm literally on the hunt now, 24, 25, seven, three 65.
Anybody that I run into, if you run into me, I'm going to make you strong. I'm going to make you feel powerful. I'm going to make you feel strong. I'm going to make you feel like you can take over the world and do anything. I'm going to make you want to be a leader. I don't care how you've been thinking. I am going to brainwash you to actually care about people.
I'm going to brainwash you to think differently. I'm going to make you believe in a whole different way. And I do this at the grocery store. I always say this leaders. It's not an on and off switch. It's in the community. It's at home and it's in the business. It's everywhere. If people go, well, yeah, I'm so glad. Look, when you get off work, you're a manager. You're a boss. You're not a leader.
Nobody wants a boss or a manager. Everybody wants a leader. Everybody wants a coach. Really, honestly, a leader and a coach are the same thing, but I prefer a coach because a coach is someone that's just coaching somebody. It's positively peer pressuring them to become better, to believe differently. all the time. And I believe everyone needs a coach, dude.
I mean, I literally just paid Gary Brekka 50 grand this morning to take over my fitness. I'm not even joking, dude. Anybody that can do something better than me, I got one life. It's short. I'm not going to play around. People say, oh yeah, I can do it on my own. Okay, cool. Take four years. Take four years. I want it now, man. I'm 45 years old, dude. I'm not playing around.
And by the way, if you're 20 watching this, you take this advice now at 20. Now you don't wait till you're 45. Nobody was telling me this at 20.
Well, even fear-based leadership. Dude, you guys are my age. So bottom line is, I mean, I'm just a couple years older than you guys, but listen, how do they motivate you in your age? You don't do this, you're fired. Right? Hey, you don't do this, you're out of here. You want to get back to where you were? You want to go somewhere else? You think someone else is going to pay you this kind of money?
Dude, that was how it was. Dude, now?
No, but my point is you guys understand fear leadership, right? Now watch this. My wife reminds me every day, nobody works here because they're afraid of you. People work here because they know how much you love them. Dude, listen to me. It is a superpower to use your heart, to play with your heart. Your heart should always be right here.
