Ep 251238. Big Dreams Achieved On A Micro Level

E

🔴🟢 6:45pm, Thursday, June 13th, 2024, Office, UT To keep a long story short, I had the opportunity of hosting a good chunk of my family and a lot of younger cousins to my place for an evening at the pool. I framed this as a glimpse into my future and a reinforcer for my hard work. They wouldn’t be having this opportunity to enjoy a swim all to themselves with the whole family here, for free, if it wasn’t for me. Which I frame as me choosing to work 3 jobs and just work my ass off on a day to day basis (and I’m sure I’ll look back in 6-18 months and think, “dude you were lazy as hell, tf you doin?”) And it was a great reward for me to take in and internalize. They are having a blast. They are enjoying themselves. They are safe. They are together, making memories. And it’s because of me. And of course they could go to any pool to do this at anytime, but they had this opportunity because of me. And for that I am both proud and reinforced to continue grinding. This is what I want on a huge scale, but it just so happened to manifest itself on the micro level. I am fully committing to the work, the grind, the journey, 1000%, if it means my future family gets this forever. Work is my #1 priority. And it has never been more clear to me than it is now. This is such a tremendous feeling. Also, whether or not the facts of the situation are valid or not, what it is doing to my mental side of things is only a massive net positive. Delusion or not, it’s a giant perk for me. So I’ll take it and run with it. Instagram - www.instagram.com/brquse Notable Episodes: 100. Feels Good Man 157.

Ep 250237b. What It’ll Take to Make $63K a Month

E

💎🔴🔵 7:54pm, June 12th, Wednesday, 2024, Office, UT I’m pumped about all of this. And the thing that truly excites me more than anything at this current point is getting to learn and get the reps in with all that I am doing. I think it’s just facing my fears and overcoming those things. It truly is just about pushing forward no matter how uncomfortable it is and embracing the suck, the discomfort, the awkward, the cringe, all that. What am I gonna do, quit? What am I gonna do, bail out on all the people who believe in me? What am I gonna do, give up on all my dreams and go back to being a lazy sack of worthless shit? I probably would’ve answered yes to those a year or two ago. But now it’s impossible for me to even consider. As David Goggins says, callus the mind. I feel I have done exactly that. Quick summary, I’ll need to DM 100 people per day, every day, with the assumption I’ll close 2 people (per month) to start, to make $2,000. Which is enough for me to quit FedEx and washing trucks, and get back 68 hours of my time per month. And if you say that 152 hours of work (every hour of free time I have after work and the gym for a month) equals $2000 for me now, then adding in 68 hours, in theory, means I could get (almost) another sale. Which is $3000. These are rough hypothetical theories, but they paint a picture that it is absolutely possible to make this happen. But it won’t happen if I don’t do the boring work everyday. 5 hours of DM’s daily to make this happen. And I don’t even have 5 hours per day to do this… So now we get to thinking, “how can I?” Which the old me would’ve said “Nah I don’t even have 5 hours a day to work on this; pass.” Growth baby. Let’s fuckin’ go. Instagram - www.instagram.com/brquse Notable Episodes: 100. Feels Good Man 157. Every Detail About Me 183. 1/40th of the Way There 209. Brain Dump 229b.

Ep 249237. NEVER MIND - Valuable Restaurant Nutrition Tool

E

🔴🔵🟢 June 12th, Wednesday, 2024, Work & Home, UT Yeeeeaugh, not doing this. Not giving up, just really taking a step back on what I’m doing here. The details are in the show (obviously), but to summarize quickly, it just doesn’t make sense to invest 20 days worth of work on this tool that 1), doesn’t meet my standards, 2) isn’t what I wanted in the first place and 3), I’ll have to update and do all over again in 6-12 months. I’ll have to get a development team to get that going for me in the future. It just isn’t the most practical at the moment and doesn’t yield much ROI (or so I think) for now. For now, I’ll keep working on making an exceptional program. Listen to 237b for a detailed breakdown on how I’m setting goals for all of this.

Ep 248236. Valuable Restaurant Nutrition Tool Pt. 2

E

🔴🟢 8:48pm, Tuesday, June 11th, 2024, Office, UT I’d first like to say – FUCK spreadsheets... – when they don’t work the way you want them to. I’d also like to give a monumental amount of praise and thanks to ChatGPT. Saved me dozens of times… per hour. On a serious note, it is so cool to see the growth within me to persevere through some absolute bullshit of a task. The old me would’ve quit 20 minutes in. But I kept at it for 12-16 total hours, trying everything I could to make this happen, but nothing was working. So, I had to settle for something lesser for the time being. For the record, all I wanted to do was export a spreadsheet, allow a user to sort the data however the wanted, not be able to copy or download anything, and be able to do it on their own copy and not interfere with others. And I wanted it to be the simple view without all the extra buttons of excel or sheets. Turns out that’s impossible. This tool is so valuable. I’m telling you. For anyone with any caloric or macronutrient goal, this tool will save you hours, save you stress and worry, save you anxious feelings toward your nights out, and will keep you on track every time. I can’t write about it the same way I can talk about it, so please listen to the show to get a nice gist of what it is I’ve been slaving away to.

Ep 247235. Valuable Restaurant Nutrition Tool

E

🔴🔵 8:20pm, Monday, June 10th, 2024, Office, UT I definitely have my work cut out for me and wow what a burden this is to carry. I believe this tool will be beyond useful and extremely helpful. Having the ability to quickly see what foods fit within your macros or caloric goals within seconds in a restaurant is so powerful. Rather than guessing, stressing yourself out, then ultimately saying “fuck it” and getting something that isn’t getting you closer to your goals, this tool will hopefully make that decision making process a breeze. But… What a goddamn tedious process this is. No wonder why no one else has done this. But you can instantly reframe that as, “No one else has done this… More for me.” And to think this is just one aspect of the future coaching program… Wow. This bundle will be so loaded with value and perks I’m not sure how anyone could turn it down. Which is precisely the goal. Of course this is all theory and ideas, but with all the effort and moving parts that will go into this, there’s no way this won’t be a no brainer for someone. After it’s all said and done, it then becomes up to me to get leads, work the leads, sell the leads, and help men in their pursuit to a better, more confident, stronger life. That part seriously stresses me out and give me a lot of self-discouragement. Which is only due to the fact I’ve never had a successful at-bat in the past. So I don’t have that proof for myself that I can do this in the way that I want to do it. But I also didn’t have a lot of things before 75 Hard, and after forcing myself through the gauntlet I am now more equipped than ever before. That, then, is proof that embracing uncertainty with brute force and consistency will yield the results I am after. And like everything else, I cannot fail if I do not quit.

Ep 246234. What Does BED Stand For? Sales Chronicles Series Introduction

E

🔴🔵 10:42am, Sunday, June 9th, 2024, Office, UT This is the intro episode, even though we had Ep 1 yesterday, to The Sales Chronicles. The purpose of this is to document every sales call, every sales interaction, every meeting, every deal, everything I can, LIVE, as it happens. I want people to be able to have real access to my attempts and lessons as I learned them in real time instead of me talking about “how I did sales” while sitting in my lambo in 40 years. I want to be able to say, “Hey, go listen to 233 of my podcast. First ever time I tried to get people to give me reviews. Listen to how awkward I was, man. It’s embarrassing. But by the end of the day I felt like a baller. I am so glad I did that.” That’s the vision. I don’t know what else to say other than how fucking valuable is that going to be 13 years down the road. So pumped. The BED Project Podcast - What is bed? What does bed stand for? Why bed? What?

Ep 245233. Sales Chronicles Ep. 1 - FedEx Reviews

E

💎🥴🔴🟢 12:11am, Saturday (technically 6/9/24), June 8th, 2024, FedEx, West Haven, UT This is episode 1 of the mini or side-series in this podcast feed called The Sales Chronicles, I’ll go into more depth on that tomorrow’s show. But I’m stoked about this. Today I was tasked with getting people to give me 5-star ratings for my deliveries. I took it very seriously with an attitude of learning and getting better. I made a goal of getting 10 5-star reviews, and I believe I ended the day with 13. So that is awesome. I’m proud of myself. This is new territory for me to get into. And I’ll tell you what I learned from it all. It’s not as scary as I thought. Talking to people is easy. Realizing no one gives ana actual shit is liberating. I could’ve asked them if they wanted to donate $1000 to my business and guess what? I’d still be alive. I’d still be typing this show. I’d still be chugging along. Meaning: its all in your head. I proved that to myself today. Just have fun, joke around, learn how to communicate. Today was a great day for that. Onto tomorrow.

Ep 244232. Not Getting Discouraged With Stats

E

🟢 9:01pm, Friday, June 7th, 2024, Garage / Ice Bath, UT In the past, I used to get very discouraged with the stats of my posts. Not enough likes, not enough comments in enough time, not enough reposts, not enough favorites, you name it. I used to take posts down if they didn’t perform well enough. Which is so silly. If it’s not performing well, the surefire way to ensure it doesn’t perform at all is to take it down. Funny logic there. I found myself getting a hint of discouragement with the lack of streams in the last couple days. But I was immediately reinforced with the thought that followed. Which was this: “You didn’t get enough streams huh? What, are you just gonna quit now? Yeah right.” And this was helpful. Because that’s the truth. What am I gonna do? Quit? My left nut I’m gonna quit. We’ve got 7,073 episodes left. THEN I can think about stopping the show. Until then, we keep going. Also, the RELIEF I feel from not having to grocery shop or meal prep is insane. I’ll pay more to feel this more often and forever. To have my time back? Insane feeling. The next time this happens is when I quit one of my jobs… Let’s go!

Ep 243231. Mapping Out The Next 4 Months Worth of Work - 12X ROI

E

💎🔴🔵🟢9:04pm, Thursday, June 6th, 2024, Office, UT I covered a shit ton in this show. A quick summary would be: I feel as though my attention to detail, abnormalities, and/or processes is so much more dialed in than that of the average person. Maybe I’m wrong, I don’t care either way. Time will tell. I am mapping out the next 4 months of work for myself (hopefully it does not take 4 months, as this should be a nice 4-8 week project if I am focused. Pulled these numbers out of my ass too. HYPED to build, still feeling past feelings of insecurities to sell. On one hand it’s exciting, on the other it’s frightening. The path for growth never stops, and it is always uncomfortable. Perhaps that’s why so few people follow it. If it takes me an average of 4 hours per day for the next 4 months to build this, and then in the next 3 years I get 200 clients, which is 5 clients a month on average, that’s a 12X ROI. Meaning I “spend” $15,840 and get $200,000 in return. Again, pulling these hypotheticals out of thin air, but it is to illustrate a point. This episode gets a diamond, because this becomes extremely valuable in hindsight if I do exactly everything I said I’m going to do in this episode. This is the entire point of the podcast. To document. I also got my first ever YouTube subscriber, EVER, today. One down, ten million to go! #Holes IG - @brquse 💎 = Valuable Show to Look Back on in 5-20 Years 🔵 = Thought Process, Ideas, Decision Making 🟢 = Self Realization, Observations, & Learning 🔴 = Relating to Business 🟣 = Emotional / Sad / Angry / Frustration 🥴 = Embarrassing Myself ♠️ = 75 Hard/Live Hard

Ep 242230. FlexPro Meals & Pre Workout Delivery

E

🔴🟢 7:25pm, Tuesday, June 5th, 2024, Ice Bath, UT Got my FlexPro meals, so we’ll give them a shot and see how it goes. The fact I bought back 20 hours of my month by doing this though makes me feel both proud and relieved. Hell yes. Pre workout won’t be here for another day or 2… again.. Issues with address I guess. Which is frustrating because this was shipped via UPS just like my meals were. Meaning my address is correct and fine (new area, not on google maps quite yet), which indicates that the supplement manufacturer messed it up. It’s not the end of the world, but I would love to get tasting this shit. One quick point that I’ve mentioned before that I want to hit on again. The only reason I have the ability to invest in a meal prep company and spend more on food is because I am doing things that others are not willing to do. By working 3 jobs, I am afforded this service. As the saying goes “do what others won’t so you can do what others can’t.” Cool feeling.

Ep 241229b. It’s Time To Leave My Comfort Zone… Again…

E

💎🔴🔵6:31pm, Tuesday, June 4th, 2024, Office, UT This episode has the potential to go down in history as a hugely referenced show in the future. But it all depends on the actions I take from here moving forward. The thought process started when I came to the conclusion that I am running out of time to trade for money. And that I in fact cannot afford to buy any more of my time back at this point in my life without putting other goals on hold. Seeing things in the reverse perspective of affordability is a great way to shift the frame of mind in which you approach the issue. For example: If someone makes $50k/yr, they are paying $950,000/yr to remain ignorant on how to generate an extra $80k/mo. Again, got the concept from Alex Hormozi. Which has helped me reframe my decisions. I can get a 4th job and work weekdays after my full time job, but this comes with a massive expense of 0 free time after work to work on my shit. Is that worth it? No. So what is the alternative? I need to man up and get out there again with all this new found confidence and discipline I have and make something of it instead of finding better ways to trade my time for an hourly wage. To say 6 hours of my only free time in my day is worth $120 is massively disrespectful to myself. “There has to be a better way” is a phrase I often say to myself at least a dozen times a week. This is one of them. Long story short, I may start up my Personal Training business again despite exactly wanting to. But this grants all my wishes. It gets me the opportunities to further build, create, and develop a business. It gets me people experience, sales experience, communication, ads, marketing, etc., which is exactly what I’ve been applying for (maybe 3 total jobs, but still) to trade my money for learning. But even then, it’s trading my time for less money, which is what I need to advance my other goals. In this scenario, money is a tool. And I do not possess much of this tool. This tool will advance me more quickly and further than not having it. So, how can I generate more? By making an offer so good people feel stupid saying no. Alex Hormozi cheat codes activated. $100M Offers round 2! We’ll see what happens.

Ep 240229. It’s Good That It’s Hard, Progress, Updates

E

🔴🟢🔵 6:17pm, Tuesday, June 4th, 2024, Office, UT I had a ton of thoughts on my way home from work today. One of them being the fact that I simply won’t have “days off” for years. I say that now with every other Sunday as a day off work, but as far as working on my own goals and entrepreneurial endeavors, that never takes a break for me personally. I got thinking about all the things I'm “missing.” And I say that in quotes because I’m not sure I’m really missing anything. It’s just the perception. But what helps me get out of that would-be-spiral is the thought that one day I’ll be able to tell this story of how I worked every day and never had a day off. I was always gunning toward something in some regard. And how grandiloquent (fancy talk for really cool) the story will be. Also, if it were easy, simple, and cheap, it would not be worth pursuing. That means it’s available to all, and anyone can have it. The value in that drops immensely. So the very fact that it is hard makes it worth it altogether to pursue. This is a thought from Alex Hormozi and so valuable. Mini Updates: 3rd revision of the pre workout is on its way. Tomorrow I should have an official taste test. Ep 229b. has the potential to be one of the most valuable shows to date depending on my actions moving forward. Cool to think. Cool to see the progress made in the confidence I have with podcasting and speaking. Life rocks. But I’m only able to say that because I weathered the storm of shit days. Still winning.

Ep 239228. The Sad Episode

E

🟣🟢 8:29pm, Monday, June 3rd, 2024, Office, UT It seems like the more times I go out and have a "normal life", the more times I return home very sad. But that only happens once, and that's the initial arrival. After that I'm golden and back on my bullshit. But I wonder why that is. One day, I'll look back at all these hard days, stressful nights, frustrating mornings, lonely years, and say "I am so glad I never gave up." Because that day will come and it will happen. This episode is for the sad guys out there. You're not alone. You just have to keep going. The light at the end of the tunnel never gets any closer by sitting there and waiting; keep moving. There's an episode here for you every single day from now forward. We got this shit together.

Ep 236227. Meal Prep Service - CHECK

E

🔵 10:40pm, Sunday, June 2nd, 2024, Kitchen, UT I was cutting potatoes, absolutely dreading the next few hours of meal prep, when I decided to grab my laptop and do a little digging around to find some sort of affordable meal prep company. I didn’t think twice after I made it make sense financially. I made an order, and I would like to think that this is the last time I’ll ever meal prep in my life. I don’t like meal prepping or cooking food in bulk. I’m good. I’d rather starve. So… I invested into a meal prep company. Here’s some math: If my time is worth $32/hr on average between my 3 jobs, and it takes me 5 hours to meal prep per week, that’s $160 in time that it takes me. Multiply that by 4 for the month and you get $640. I’m spending $640 worth of my time to get food bought and prepared. Now with this meal prep company and the odds and end groceries per week, it will be approximately $135/wk. But… I get 5 hours a week back. So I’m buying back $640 worth of my time with $140 per month (because I budget $100/wk on groceries). So, for $140 a month, I now have 20 more hours to work on building my shit. Hell yes.

🟢 11:03pm, Saturday, June 1st, 2024, Office, UT Caught a damn ghost live on recording. My FINGER ACTIVATED lamp turned off. Didn't burn out. SICK. Had one hell of a day, but it quickly turned around when I just set aside all stimuli and focused on what was in front of me. That really helped. All night long I just was present with the moment of what I was doing, and I feel great mentally. Took some time for myself tonight. Only a couple hours but I think it was enough to give me the rejuvenation I needed. Also talked with some random stranger about getting a weekend sales job for the sake of learning. We'll see how it goes. ZS.

Ep 234225. I Hit 1K Stream, Gaining Traction Again, Software Companies Need To Be Better, Mic Check

E

💎🔴🔵 10:08pm, Friday, May 31st, 2024, Office, UT 1,000 downloads was achieved today. Bad ass. My first comma in the podcasting realm. Very cool. I forecasted my approximate streams in the future based on the growth of the last few months, and it pumped out some numbers on when I'd hit certain milestones. You can listen at the end of those, but the main one I want to pay attention to now is the 10,000 milestone that I'll hit during May of 2025. So 11 months from now. I've gotten 500 downloads this month alone, so, we'll see what happens. Disclaimer: Whether or not I get 10k streams or only ever 21 again from Uncle Bobby, I'm still doing 7305. Gained some traction again today. Messing around with softwares (that seemingly ALWAYS never get it right) to see if my vision can be met. I found something that looks promising so we'll see if it lives up to the hype as I hope it does. Software companies really gotta be better man. Meet with the people using the software. Run a whole day with them. Even a week. See how the people you're making the software for will actually use it. Remove your ego from it. Change everything that the workers need to be changed. It's the only real way to make an efficient and desirable software. If I knew software I'd put Elon out of a job (jokes, for the dense ones). Mic check 1, 2. Proving again that closet audio is better than almost everything else. I mean listen to the difference. Remarkable.

Ep 233224. No Idea What To Do & Embarrassed About It

E

🔵🥴 8:12pm, Thursday, May 30th, 2024, Office, UT Alright, so... We got: No idea what to do. Truly embarrassed to say that, but I'm keeping it real. Forgot how the goddamn solar system works LOL.

Ep 232223. They Sent My Samples To Wrong Address

E

🔴 8:16pm, Wednesday, May 29th, 2024, Office, UT Sweet. Days like today are the hardest for me because I feel like I wasted it. For this, that, or another reason, it doesn't matter. I didn't move forward in my eyes today. And that sucks. Something I try to remember and think about is the fact that it's all a roller coaster. You have to have highs to have lows and vis versa. So while this may have been a terrible day, it's just a reminder for me that if I want better days I need to have better preparation and focus. My exhaustion could've been avoided or at least lessened had I gone to bed when Iw as supposed to. Which makes me believe that another major key to my success in this phase of life is to get adequate amounts of sleep every night. Meaning the absolute bare minimum moving forward has to be 7. Absolutely nothing less. Lately it's been 5.5-6. And I'm paying for it.

Ep 231222. FedEx Wage, Workload Priorities, Not Giving Up, Nutrition Options

E

🔵🔴 7:38pm, Tuesday, May 28th, 2024, Home, UT The first title of this episode was titled "Whole Lotta Shit," but then I changed it to what it is now. Now you know. Topic 1 - Dunno what to focus on next. Shitty feeling not knowing what to do. But the reality is I know exactly what to do. It's just I don't feel like I have a solid plan of attack for whatever it is. Which is a very shitty excuse BECAUSE episode one of this entire podcast was made from the principle of just starting. And here we are as a result of that. Topic 2 - The 100-Option nutrition plan. I want to pack this thing with as much value as possible. So going over-the-top with providing literally one hundred options to choose from based on your goals and preferences (not food, just macro split) was something I felt was absolutely required. What's cool about this is I got about 80% of the core functionality done in a day. Just focused effort on one thing. Topic 3 - FedEx Wage FedEx is key to my next phase in business with providing me additional income to dedicate toward business. Just skimmed over that and went into depth on the salary. FedEx pays well for anyone who is interested, it's just very tough work if you want to work 6 hour days. If you're cool working 9-10 hour days it'll be a lot more chill for you. Topic 4 - Not Giving Up So while I was in the "I'm just going to go to bed early today, fuck all this" moment, I was reminded that I need to eat 2 more meals, drink 20oz more of water, record a podcast and write about and upload it, and then I'd be clear. This was a great reminder that this is is exactly where everyone else quits and throws in the towel. This is exactly where everyone else loses momentum, gos backward, and starts the slippery slide to giving up altogether. So this is another no brainer for me to keep pushing on and not give up. Because if in this whole game, it's about last man standing, all I have to do is not give up. And by default in the end I'll be #1. Now of course it doesn't work like that, there's warriors and giants out there in the top 10,000... I just need to make it to that. And today is just another test passed. I think that's all.

Ep 230221. Make “Work” The Goal

E

🔴🟢 7:58pm, Monday 🇺🇸, May 27th, 2024, Kitchen, UT "Desire is a contract we make with ourselves to be unhappy until we get what we want." To say your goal is to be happy literally means you do not possess happiness. So, happiness will always be outside of you. But what if you say your goal is to work. Well then every single time you sit down and chip away at that thing, you're accomplishing your goals. And you're able to do that every single day. You can build a lot of momentum get some shit done if you are reinforced daily instead of once every few months when you hit other goals. You can set this up so you are winning daily. All I want to do now is work. It excites me. All of this is a game. I feel like I'm actually near obsessed with working because I am so eager to level up. It's like when you first drop into RuneScape in Lumbridge and you don't know SHIT about ANYTHING. But you are so stoked to walk around and kill cows for cowhide and make SERIOUS cash. But the beauty in all of this is you don't know what else there is. Yet you're already absolutely ecstatic over selling cowhide to the general store. There's an entire world out there. And the only way you can possibly reach it all is by working to level up and get out there. Imagine playing RuneScape but never leaving Lumbridge. What a shitty game. For those who got the reference, I KNOW this struck for you. For those who have no idea, imagine being born, being taken home, and never being able to leave your property. You can go outside and hangout, invite friends over, but you can never step foot off your property. Life can still be pretty enjoyable. But at the cost of literally everything else. I see the work that I do as me working to level up to finally step off my property into the neighborhood, where I then have to level up to unlock the city. And as long as I am working on my goals and not quitting, I will without a doubt get there. And that is SO exciting.

Ep 229220b. Expectations Always Fall Short - Keep Moving

E

🔴🟢 11:21pm, Sunday, May 26th, 2024, Shower, UT Very simply put, I had expectations that fell short and I was very frustrated about it. But being frustrated isn't going to do me any favors. It's best to accept it, learn the lesson, and keep moving. What am I gonna do, give up? I think that's one of the biggest perks there is out of all of this. I've committed whole heartedly to this. There is no going back. So "giving up" or "quitting" isn't an option. So when things get tough, it becomes a game. It becomes "this boss keeps fucking up my shit. Wonder if I try this new attack style if it will do any better." Then I try the new attack style and voila! Success. Video game analogy but I hope that makes. Just gotta keep moving forward despite the adversity punches. First ever podcast recorded in the shower?

Ep 228220. Social Norms for a Job Resume - "I Made My Bed 403 Days In A Row"

E

💎🔵 2:21pm, Sunday, May 26th, 2024, Office, UT First half of the show is ass. Second half of the show is less ass. Again, just some thoughts that go on in my head. You'd probably be seen as unprofessional, silly, or just fuckin' weird for putting those types of things on your resume. But what's most ironic about all of them is they scream "Hey, I take care of myself. I prioritize my goals, my health, my mental well being, and goals. I am consistent, have large amounts of ambition, strive for development every day, and want to win big in the long term. I take my life serious and plan, prepare, and execute on a very consistent basis. I make no excuses for myself and take responsibility for all my actions regardless of my circumstances." Yet, an employer would see "Made bed 403 days in a row" and think, "What a clown, this doesn't pertain to shit. Denied. Weirdo." But the reality is that there is so much more behind making your bed 403 days in a row. For starts, it shows your attention to detail. Making your bed, objectively, doesn't do shit. But it does show you care about the small things, you value detail, and you're consistent. It also shows you're able to get tasks done even when you don't want to or don't feel like it. No way in hell were you PUMPED out of your mind to make your bed 403 days in a row. At least half of those you probably thought, "No one cares but me, why should I even make my bed. This is stupid. No one would even know... Pass." BUT, you still did it. Which then lends itself to having unwavering integrity. All this can be extracted from "Made bed 403 days in a row." Yet, this is probably (I don't know) seen as unprofessional or silly. And the most profound part of all of this is that the 403 day streak has no consequences or penalties for not adhering to it. No one cares. It affects no one. They lose nothing by abandoning the habit. No one is forcing them to make their bed. Yet they do it. With all this being said, why the fuck would you not hire a person with the values and ambition mentioned above? Because it's weird to see that on a resume? Eat shit. For the record, this is all a theory. But I know for sure some corporate fuck would laugh at someone putting these things on their resume. Because it's not professional. What's not professional about it? Because it's uncommon to share adherence to personal goals and dreams as a way of displaying values to the employer?

To have someone think "Wow, he's going to do it! I want to get in on this." That's so humbling. That fills me with so much gratitude. I truly have no words. I took a selfie the moment I read the message and captured the moment. I almost teared up at the thought. It's crazy to think about. And again, I just don't have any words.

Even with the extra sleep, the nap, I'm still absolutely exhausted. Other than that, I was looking back at the work I had been doing the last week and it surprised me. I wrote about 20 full document sized pages for just one part of this workout subscription idea I have. Didn't even realize I wrote that much. It didn't feel that way at all. So, again, it's nice to take my head out of the work and see what I've accomplished. It's a cool feeling. This was tough for me personally. Peace out Sam. Will miss seeing you at work brother.

So, Andy Frisella talked about mastering the mundane, and that is what this show is about with some added flair. I've got myself into a fixed schedule that is most optimal for me personally at this time, but that is also so rough. I have to work 10 hours, ice bath, and have a full on workout before I can start my dreamer shift (what I call the time I have to work on my goals). That sucks. What sucks more is that this is how it'll be for the next 4-8 years. Rough. But, with acceptance of this, it makes it the new standard and/or new norm for me. That which is normal attracts no expectations other than that it is in fact normal. And as long as it is that (which is what I'm, now, calling "rough"), it's fine because of the acceptance that it is what it is. It's hard. So what. So is being poor and living with regret.

They make $5,000 in 5 minutes, and they're telling you their life lessons. Why wouldn't you listen and apply the relevant / applicable information to your life and see what happens over the course of 5 years? If they're exactly where you want to be and they're telling you what they wish they would've done or didn't do, take that and run with it.

I talked about what I'm working on (monthly workout bundle) and how even if I don't use what I'm working on now, now, it'll benefit me later for sure. Without a doubt. Perhaps that's a perk of knowing where you're going. I got stuff figured out at work to be able to work on all this at work (while on the block) and get some of my time back which is very refreshing to think about. I got about an hours worth of writing done today while at work which saved me later when I got home. Fantastic. Talked about how I'm working on what I'm working on, how I eat during it all, how I go about getting started with work, when I started with the current document I'm on, etc. I talked a lot about my thoughts and decision making and why I am doing the things in the way I'm doing them.

Or I could leave FedEx and get a weekend sales job that would help me develop my people, communication, sales, and speaking skillsets. The downside is I'd take a huge pay cut. The upside is that I'd be getting paid to learn. It would place me in a position to get hundreds of repetitions in this and get better. Reached out to a few people who might be able to give me some information on this, so we'll see! It's merely an idea. So we shall see. I'm going to try this out.

Secondly, I need more time in a day to do more stuff. What's stressful is not what I want/need to do, it's that I don't have the time to allocate to it as much as I'd like to. That sucks. Thirdly, I have engineered my life in such a way that this path I am choosing is the easiest to adhere too. My focus and interests reside in the work that propels me forward to the top of wherever I'm going. That's what I want, and my life set-up is a perfect reflection of that.

In those moments, I want to throw everything out the window and just sleep and not do anything ever again. So much so that I am engulfed in so much self-doubt and negative thought and kind of start feeling like shit, as if I chose the wrong path in life. Like this is all just a waste and I'm missing out on so much life has to offer because I just want to work. They are horrible thoughts, but they pass every single time. The fact that you are even reading this or listening to the show proves that they pass, and I withstood the storm yet again. And knowing that I can, in fact withstand every storm that comes my way gives me courage to keep going. When I get through one storm, I have proof for that I am capable of withstanding more.

Having more time will never be a bad thing. I covered a lot in this episode and I deem it one of the most valuable episodes to date for future listeners.

I realized today you just can’t be perfect every time. And some things have to take a hit in order for other things to come to life. And I think I’m slowly grasping that and understanding that that’s just how it’s gotta be for a while until I reach a point where I can buy other people’s time and/or free up my own.

The excitement I feel toward everything again and to get back into it all is the highest it's been in a long time. It feels great. Which leads me to the observation: Maybe very short, sporadic breaks off of everything is another key to it all. Productivity stems from the rest taken from the work; true of false? #learning Also, no difference whatsoever, but these show notes are the first to be written on a new software I'm using.

I don’t want to live life feeling like I physically have to be moving so quickly all the time. So I thought about it for a moment and came to a rough stance on the matter. I want to try better to get the podcast recorded when I am doing things that allow me to speak and do the other thing. Such as driving, walking home, during other tasks, etc. That would free up more time in my day for other tasks. I’ve slowly but surely raised the value of my time and lowered the tolerance for time wasting activities. Kind of want to do cringey shit to have a laugh later. Afterall, I’m recording these for the 10 year listeners in the future.

Got the third revision of the supplement on the way. Pretty stoked! Slow process but it’s part of the story here. Trying to get as organized as I can for the future ahead. That’s the key for me. I seem to do x10432 better when I have visuals of what needs to get done and by when. This has a success rate of 100% in my life the last 3 or 4 times I’ve implemented it.

9:20m, May 7th, 2024, Office, UT Today we hit 100 days in a row of drinking a gallon of water per day, tracking everything I ate, and eating no less than 225g of protein. Every single day for 100 days straight. Bad ass. Feels like I haven’t doing much, but I have been making baby steps in the right direction. And as long as I keep doing that I’ll end up where I want to be. In the pursuit of success, you either quit or you die. Otherwise, you’ll accomplish whatever it is you set out to. I find that so comforting. As long as I don’t give up, no matter the difficulty, I’m going to be alright. What is average? Does it apply to you? Are you an average person? Probably not if you’re listening to this. So don’t pay any mind to shit that is made directly for the average mother fucker. P.S. If you’re 55, you’re so young still. If you’re 40 you’re a baby. If you’re 30, you’re not even born yet. If you’re 20, you’re just playing with a 20 year headstart. If you’re younger than that, you’ve got nothing but time.

Only “haters”, or “doubters” I've had up to this point are family and friends. I’ve not had a stranger say shit yet. Interesting huh? First ever live phone call on this episode too (it was a fail).

Ep 206199. Stressin’… My New Norm It Seems

E

9:37pm, May 5th, 2024, Kitchen, UT After listening to this episode entirely, and writing this right before bed, organization and preparation is what I need more than anything right now. So much shit going on and not enough preparation or organization to keep me flowing as optimally as I can be. Stressed out and I’m not even doing anything yet. Just holding myself to a high standard with lower efficiency. Not good.

Ep 205198. Being In The Moment

E

11:29pm, May 4th, 2024, Home, UT I was at a concert tonight and decided to just be there in the moment. I took all my worries and stressors for the day and somehow just set them aside for the time being. Rather than trying to calculate how and when I’d do certain things later on, I just focused on being there with my little brother. Guess what? I enjoyed the concert, took more in, and still got all my tasks done. It’s 2:10am as I write this but I got everything done. That’s a fat win.

Ep 204197. “Mastering The Monotonous”

E

10:02pm, May 3rd, 2024, Office, UT Doing a lot of the same ol’ shit everyday now that presents no excitement, but is essential. Not a lot of “joy” in doing these things… but that was never the goal to begin with. Happiness isn’t the goal. Which is interesting to even have that as a goal because saying anything is a goal means that you don’t currently have it. So if your goal is happiness, you aren’t happy. So just abolish that whole idea and do what is required to get to where you want to go. Anyway, I spent a good hour or so doing some new intro outro bits for this show. I messed up so many times. I was literally laughing so hard at my own mistakes. I was almost crying laughing. Having the time of my life over here with me, myself and I. I’m a simple man I guess.

Ep 203196. Reflection & Acknowledging Wins

E

11:13pm, May 2nd, 2024, Office, UT Something I’m learning more and more lately is to pay attention to the wins you accumulate. It’s really easy to overlook all the things you do right and focus on what you’re not doing or what you’re not doing enough of. Today is a perfect example of that. I really felt like I didn’t do jack shit. But after having to explain to someone what I did today, it proved to me that I had done a lot more than I thought I did. And simply acknowledging that gave me a boost to keep going and get more done. And this is all on just a todays basis. Imagine 330 of these days per year. Holy shit, right? TL;DR, Acknowledge the wins. Don’t quit. Keep moving.

Ep 202195. New House - I Made It

E

11:12pm, May 1st, 2024, NEW HOME, UT Well, we made it. A new chapter of life begins. I'm in this position because I was presented with opportunities in life and I took full advantage of them. That’s it. Call it luck, call it whatever. At the end of the day, nothing happens if nothing happens. I’ve got so much shit to take care of now it’s ridiculous. One thing at a time though. I’m very excited to get back to living a normal life but in my house on my terms. So pumped. Nothing else to say other than I am grateful. Kevin, Shonnie, Jake, Mialee, Kendyl, I love you all. Thank you for the last 9 months. You guys supported me and saw the early days of the “grind” which goes such a long way. Thank you infinitely. Good. Night.
