The Bryson Every Day Project

And we keep moving. I am proud of myself for keeping my word. No one knew I was doing this. No one listened. Yet I remained consistent. Someone, anyone, who may be reading this. Please, just start. You'll figure it out along the way. You will. But you can't throw in the towel when things get hard. You have to keep moving. Let this serve as proof that imperfect action beats perfect procrastination.

I put a lot of thought into what I wanted to talk about for this episode. Yet, I still missed key points I wanted to talk about. I made a somewhat detailed show-note reference that I would go on to follow while recording. I want to share that here with you all so you can see what I had planned before I even began the show. Are all my show notes this way? No. Not at all. But, this goes to show as proof that 100 was a big deal to me, and putting in the effort to make it a full recap full of value was something I wanted to nail. However, as with all things, there is always room for improvement. This is episode #100. The first major goal we ever made with podcasting and we nailed it. The ultimate goal now for the bq.Daily show is to reach episode #3653. Which is 10 years straight of recording. Then, episode #7305. Which is 20 years. Anyway, here are the show notes. 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 EPISODE 100 ULTIMATE REVIEW 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 Over the last 100 days, I made 100 podcast episodes with some rules. Had to be at least 20 minutes. Had to be solo. Couldn’t tell ANYONE anything about anything to do with the show or that I was recording audio. Had to be some sort of lesson or take away from them. Couldn’t edit anything out or remove/add anything from earlier or later. Its real raw and unedited.Everything that’s in there was exactly how it was said. I did not remove a single world. Had to upload at least 5 per weekMade a goal to have at least 10 listeners by the end of it, and Idk the exact number but I think total we hit maybe 14? Cool beans. I did all this and made this commitment for virtually zero return. No one listened lol. But that’s not why i'm doing it. I did it to get better at speaking. At articulating my thoughts. Confidence builder. Getting in reps. Speaking,. Stopping saying like uhh ummm. I just got started. I did not have a plan other than to document the day to day through live hard and business. I did not care about the cover art. I did not care about the name. I did not have the best setup. Even with the shit I did have it was preferable to use just my phone in my car I did not have any more than 3-5 listeners at a time for a total of maybe 12.And that’s just people who listened to the show for no less than 60 seconds. I did this for 100 days straight. Every single day I recorded a podcast that was a minimum of 20 minutes long. It feels incredible to have kept that promise and commitment to myself. If you say the average length of an episode was 30 minutes long, I spoke for 50 hours. If I spoke 180 words a minute, that’s 540,000 words. Thats 100 reps of getting better at podcasting. I’m now 100 episodes ahead of where I would be if I never would have started. I further proved to myself that you absolutely CAN just start.I even developed the philosophy that waiting to start anything is the biggest excuse we make as humans. Time is real, and time goes on. But the form of measurement is all man made. We grouped 7 rotations of earth into a bundle and called it a week. We wrapped 4 of those into another bundle and called it a month. We then bundled those into a group of 12 and called it a year. We even gave these bundles names. Mon Tues Jan Feb What the fuck? What a load of shit. Just start. I had no experience, no listeners (still don’t), nothing going on, and no reason to think I could be a successful, influential podcaster. But I did it. And I did it for 100 episodes straight. I now have 100 reps and 50 hours of experience under my belt. And it only took me 3 months. Thats no time at all. I did all of this through Phase 1 TWICE. And the second run it wasn’t even part of the program. It’s just something I’ve forced myself to do. My schedule has been crazy. SCHEDULE FROM YEAR 95 EXAMPLE EXAMPLE EXAMPLE. More stuff More more more…. Future of the show from here on out.Splicing and quick shit episodes. Check out the NEW SHOW “Pursuit of Personal Excellence” where I talk about X Y Z. The real deal. The Steak and tatos. This is just the daily show. Check out the other new show VITYL MUSCLE PODCAST. Where I talk supplements, benefits, etc. XYZ ? ? ?

As the RuneScapers know, we got 99 Podcasting today. 120 is next. #FirstLove

There was a lot of passion in this episode, and I deem it to be one of the most valuable shows I've done so far in regards to providing value and perspective on the key elements of 75 Hard. 75 hard changed my life forever. More specifically, Phase 1. I cannot recommend 75 Hard & Live Hard enough to anyone. Just do it. Just start.

I am not sure what I am referencing by Level One Surpassed. But that's what I wrote. I haven't listened to any of my episodes.

Biggest day in the early ventures of business so far. We have our very first ever sample on hand. And at the time of writing this, 7 other people have tasted it, 2 have given it a try in the gym, and I have taken it maybe 15 times now. It is the real deal and I am so pumped to perfect the flavoring and get this out to the doers and achievers of the world. The best part of it all; no pre-workout shits. No upset stomach. No sickness or nausea. Absolute focus, pump, and energy. No jitters or anxiety. No crash later. I am so proud of this formula so early on. The last 10 years spent in the fitness industry paid off here. I can't wait to get this to you guys. I'm sure you will love it. And if not, as you'll learn in previous episodes, you will not have to go through the ringer to get a refund or return the product. Keep the shit, I'm giving you a full refund + extra, and thank you for giving the brand a try. That's the philosophy.

This entire episode was recorded with absolute dog shit quality. But... we keep moving forward. Now, looking back, even 2 weeks later, this is hilarious. Bluetooth in cars is ass.

Forgot to name the show post-recording, so the content of this show shall remain a mystery...

Honestly, I have no idea what I talked about other than the headings of these next 12 shows. I didn't stay on top of it.

I accidentally skipped over this one when bulk-uploading. Obviously this is #81, comes before 82, and after 80. In case you had no idea what was going on. #sarcasm Big day today; ordered samples!

Controversial opinion (that goes directly against myself, too). Social media is not poison, it's not "bad", it's not "toxic", it's not anything. The absolute baseline of all of social media is photos, captions, comments, and people. Who we choose to follow is all up to us. What we choose to stop and view is up to us. The comments we choose to read, good or bad, is up to us. The comments we leave, positive or negative, is up to us. The people we let follow us, is up to us. Our experience in these apps is all within 100% of our control. Because at the end of the day, no one is forcing you to download the app. And at that, no one is forcing you to open the app on a daily basis. Even further, no one is forcing you to mindlessly scroll and consume the shit for 8 hours a day. It's a choice we ALL make on a daily basis. The fault we find within social media is a direct reflection of our lack of self control, self awareness, and overall discipline. It's a reflection of us. (I'm talking to myself on this one, too) Social media isn't bad, you just suck ass at managing your time spent on the apps and refraining from engaging in negative content. Let's start taking ownership here. Then the ball is on our side of the court. When we take responsibility, we take ownership. Which is power. #thinkingoutloud

The title says it all. I am not proud of this one whatsoever. I actually can't say I'm embarrassed either, which is a win. I'm showing the side that few people are willing to show. Social media is one giant highlight reel. But what is their life like behind the scenes? We are all people, we all have emotions, desires, road blocks, bad habits. Here's my half-ass, I-forgot-to-record-a-show, not-having-a-topic, mess of a show. It'll be cool to listen and share this episode in a few years. "See, even though it was shit, I kept on recording, I kept the promise to myself, and now here we are on episode #954." #vision

Well, we had to reduce the amount of Theacrine in the formula to avoid the absolute ass-bitter taste. Which is unfortunate to say the least. But I'm not going to dwell on it. I'll figure it out as we go on. I am hungry to get in the game and set the standard. Imperfect action beats waiting to start because circumstances are not ideal. Just start.

On one hand, I want to show that I pay attention to the details and make sure they are accounted for (I.e. naming a damn show). On the other hand, I want to document everything... So... here it is. I have no idea what I talk about in this episode. I didn't write a name for the show post-recording, and I haven't listened to any of my own shows in their entirety. So I have no idea what I've said in which episodes... (this isn't the first time either).

First breakup in a while... and it's with a program lol. Sleep is important, did ya know? Working to get better at it. Very difficult when you have the drive to work work work, but only have a few hours per day to dedicate to the craft. Sleep is essential, and something that I may actually prioritize over a lot of other areas in life. It seems like 7 hours is my sweet spot. 6-6.5, I am hard of focus and alertness. 5-6, mentally foggy and irritable. 7-8, prime time. It's hard for me at the moment to wrap my head around going to bed early AND waking up later (for me). Work in progress.

As someone who has taken such pride in pushing themself to the limits and getting work DONE, it is a hard realization that we all have limits, and none of us are superman. Life lessons learned. Keep moving forward!

We've reached a low day. It's been a tough stretch. But we keep pushing on because that's what is required. Also, everyone knows the main character never dies.

Here in episode 77 I talk about how I think about the idea of others viewing or perceiving me, being that guy, and compromise. Straight up, I don't know if that's a typo for comparison or not, but whatever. It's what I wrote. Part of documenting the journey is ensuring I tackle all the mess ups and errors too. Enjoy the mess.

In this show I unleash some feel-good energy and explain how I am never going to quit. There's just no way. An all-time PR on bench after a multiple year hiatus in the fitness realm, and why I no longer support Amazon or their companies (as much as I can).

For lack of better phrasing, I am embarrassed of my ambition. It makes me feel uncomfortable around others when I have these monstrous goals and dreams, and all anyone else ever talks about is the weekend and how excited they are for Friday. It's hard for me to relate to that mentality when I treat every day of the week as "Friday."

Which way do I go? Well, I decided. And I think it was a great decision.

Straight up, every episode from here to 99, I don't know the details of what I talked about. I haven't listened to any of my own episodes. Maybe I should so I can hear how silly-goose I sound huh? Oh well. The purpose of documenting everything is to do jus that document everything. At the time of uploading this podcast, (Jan 29th, 2024) I have decided to bulk upload for the next few days to catch up to where I am now within 1 day (Ep. 102). #SneezeCast (23:10)

A bit of a spoiler here, but as of Jan 29th 2024, I have decided to pull away from the program and get my ego in check. I’m essentially operating 5 power lists on the daily and getting very frustrated when the smallest things do not go exactly to plan. You’ll hear more about this toward episode 90 or so.

I officially completed Phase 1 of Live Hard. I did it only having 1 day off from work. 60 hour work weeks in peak season of FedEx combined with all of Live Hard plus the 3 additional tasks. This was brutal for me. And I DID IT DUDE. Let's GO.

I completed Phase 1 and got myself something nice. I wrapped in in Christmas paper and wrote a note to myself. I also talk about how I want to support other small brands if I can instead of global corporations like Amazon & Walmart. I also completed Phase 1 after failing on day 25/30. Integrity mother fucker.

For 75 Hard, I got myself a brand new 2023 MacBook Air. I've used it every day since then and am even using it to type this caption right now. I've never owned any apple computers before, and what a game changer. I love it. I earned it. I also talk about the vision of the podcast. How episode 3653 would be the 10 year mark and how cool it'll be to have all of this documented. I also touch on how we should all work to appreciate the now. It's gone before you know it.

In this episode I talk about the great revelation I've had that I do not need validation or permission for anyone. Plus, it's always better to ask for forgiveness than asking for permission. ;)

I talk a bit about some goals I have at the time of recording.

I wanted to record daily podcast episodes of 75 hard to document everything. I didn't follow through with that unfortunately, but I guess I've made up for it with these podcast episodes. Funny how things work themselves out sometimes huh? Some progress is always better than nothing. Strive to be better, not perfect. I think this is a very valuable episode in the long term because it truly shows my day 1 and what I was thinking. My real, first, day 1. Right here in audio format. Im glad I did this. I actually have about a dozen more from 75 Hard, so maybe I'll do more flashbacks and talk about them in future shows? Who knows.

On this episode, you'll discover that Founders Formula is now Year 95. I talk about day 25 of Phase 1 of LiveHard, and rearranging your day when shit ain't working.

In this episode I talk a bit about the vision I have going forward, a shitty day, and setting some goals. These descriptions for the show are pretty half-assed aren't they? After I record a show, I don't touch it again. As of around episode 75, all episodes have rough descriptions already made as well as time stamps so you can scrub around and find what you came for.

In this episode I touch on frustrations I'm having and then using them to seek solutions. I touch on the founders formula (now known as year 95), and how I can make it better (at the time of writing, 30 episodes ahead, the program is very different now because I wasn't thinking practically lol). I also look at what business needs to look like for me to be able to quit my jobs. It's not too far away. And it is totally doable in a year or two if I grind for it. At least that's the idea.

I listen to music all the time. And when I'm not listening to music, I have some sort of audiobook or podcasting going too. I got this app, stats.fm, that tracks my music streaming history in great detail. Over the lifetime of my account (since 2013), here are the results! I record this and out this out there because of the music taste that I have. Growing up, I rarely ever had the ability to relate with and share music with my friends. When I reached highschool, that's when I found some friends that shared a similar taste, which was amazing. But still, to others, it's probably the worst thing they've ever heard. And they call it "screamo." Oh well. So if you're like me and you like actually good music, not the mainstream pop shit that everyone and their dog thinks they like, here's a look at what I listen to and how often. You can also add me on stats.fm and see all my music stats for free. I'm in no way affiliated or associated with stats.fm, I'm just a nerd when it comes to statistics and tracking history of certain things, such as music. Go check it out! At the time of writing this I believe it is ran entirely by a solo-developer, which is awesome. @brquse

Found some apps I want to use... Not sure which I'll go with though. I also talk about rearranging my schedule to make this work. Little update on the Founders Formula (now known as Year 95).

In this one I go over some details of how I went about LiveHard Phase 1.

In this episode I touch a little bit on the identity of my business, I go over an old iPhone note I found in my phone from a while back, the comfort zone, and where I'm at in the sample process.

I talk about the feeling of insecurity in, the feeling of wanting to quit, the idea of 5 businesses all at once, and searching for the perfect app for tracking my progress.

Episode 52… not 51. I want to do this every day and be able to look back in 10 years. By then we’ll be on episode 3653. Wild. Let’s keep going!
