Yeah went from sleeping on the flow now my jury box froze fuck up bow fuck up stove counted millions in a cold bad bitch booted swole got her own bank roll can't fold dust a no head shot case cloak clothes. What is up, guys? It's Andy Purcella. This is the show for the realists. Say goodbye to the lies, the fakeness and delusions of modern society.

Andy Frisella
And welcome to motherfucking reality, guys. It is Monday, which means we have Q and Af. That's where you submit the questions and we give you the answers. Now if you would like your questions answered on the show, you can submit them a few different ways. The first way is, guys, email these.

Unknown
Questions into askandyforsella.com or you go on. YouTube in the QNaf episodes. Drop your question right there in the comments and we'll pick some from there as well. Now as we go through the week, if this is your first time listening, we have shows within the show. We're gonna have CTI tomorrow.

Andy Frisella
That stands for cruise the Internet. This is where we put topics of the day up on the screen. We speculate on what's true, on what's not true, and then we talk about how we, the people have to solve these problems going on in society. Other times we're going to have real talk. Real talk is just five to 20 minutes of me giving you some real talk, all right?

That basically means some stuff I just think you need to hear. And then we have 75 hard verses. 75 hard verses is where people who have completed the 75 hard program come on the show talk about how their life was before, how they fixed it using the 75 hard program, and how you could do the same. Now if you're unfamiliar with the 75 hard program, it is the world's most popular mental transformation program in history. It is the initial phase of the live hard program, and guess what?

It's free. All right, go to episode 208 on the audio feed. Listen to it. Get the program. It'll help you get your shit together now if you want.

And you're someone like me who needs to know the ins and outs of the nuts and bolts and the complete picture on anything. You can buy the book. There is a book called the Book on mental toughness. It outlines the entire live hard program, plus ten chapters on mental toughness, plus case studies on very famous people and how they use mental toughness to become the people that you recognize today. You can get that book@andiefercella.com.

it's called the book on mental toughness go get you one. Now, you're going to notice as we go through the week, unlike every other show out there, I do not take money for ads on my show. And the reason I don't is because I don't want to listen to some knucklehead telling me what I should or shouldn't say. I say what the fuck I want, and I stand on that. And I'm not going to listen to any sponsors, so I don't have them.

So I make a deal with you. I'm not going to have sponsors and edit myself. And you're going to help me share the show because I'm constantly dealing with censorship and traffic throttling and bans. And as you guys know, they deleted my instagram just a week ago. And so I need your help getting the message out.

So if the message is good, if it makes you think, if it makes you laugh, if it gives you a new perspective, if it teaches you some skills, if it's something you think people need to hear, I need you to share the show. All right? So don't be a ho. Share the show. All right.

Sus up? Nothing. Did you gotta catch up on the tan, man. I got. Think I just got a big head start on you.

Roll that sleeve up. Mm hmm. That's all. But listen, that. I'm definitely darker than that, non.

Unknown
Wait, darker than what? Up top. Yeah, but down here, though. Yeah, well, you're black.

Andy Frisella
I'm just sicilian, which means I'm only 12% black, so I. Yeah, I gotta catch up. But you know what? I bet in another month I'll be as dark as you. I don't know about that.

Yep. We'll see. We will see. How's that pool going? Oh, dude, listen, don't even get me started on pool, man.

Did you give up on it? I think we're in a holding pattern. Pattern? That means you gave up. No, I didn't give up.

Unknown
I know. We're just saving some coins because I got the landscape quote, it was some ducks, and. Yeah, so we're just, you know. Well, the good news is I got an awesome pool, so. All right, I'll see you tomorrow.

Andy Frisella
Yeah, that's right. I just got to figure out what. I got a big fucking hole in the backyard, though, so. I told you not to fuck with it, man. Yeah, you told me after they started digging.

Yeah, well, you maybe should have asked me before they started digging. Okay, now, that's a fair point. Yeah, I'll give you that. Hey, Andy, what do you think about me getting a pool, I would have said, you're a fucking idiot. Don't do that.

I got an awesome pool. I'm use that pool. You do have a nice pool. Yeah. Yeah.

Unknown
Fuck, I do. Yeah. All right, we'll see. We'll see. All right.

Andy Frisella
What do you got? I got a nice ten. My tan's better than yours right now.

Guys. I got three good ones for you. That's what I was looking for, man. That's what I was looking for. I know what you look for.

Unknown
I got. I got exactly what you looking for. Oh, really? Yeah. That sounds a little, sounds exactly how it's supposed to sound.

Andy Frisella
That sounds a little Dylan mulvaney, a little ditty. Yeah. Little diddy. Guys. Andy, question number one.

Unknown
Let's get through. Let's knock these out. Let's make some people better, guys. Andy, question number one. Andy, I'm 19 years old, and I've been trying to get more comfortable with failing and just going, can you give me some insight on one of the best failures you have ever made?

Andy Frisella
Oh, man. It's been hard because I don't really have the perspective of knowing if my failures will actually work for me. So hearing one of yours, I think would really help. One of the best failures you've ever made. Andy, what?

Unknown
What you got, dude? I don't know if I could point one out because they're all valuable in different ways, you know, like, it's not big failures and little failures. It's all lessons. We have to. We have to search for these lessons.

Andy Frisella
Okay? When you. When you tie your shoe and it's not a double knot and your shoe comes untied twice, what do you start doing? Start double knotting. That's right.

And while that might be a small, insignificant lesson, it's a lesson. These shoes need a double knot. And I feel like when people hear this thing about failing, all they ever think about is the big failures. All they ever think about is the embarrassing failures or the ones that people see, but the ones that they don't see are just as valuable because they teach you lessons. So I would encourage you instead of, like, listening to my failures.

I mean, dude, look, I couldn't even tell you a failure because I failed a hundred times for every public win that you guys have ever witnessed. So, like. And it's weird because people think, oh, man, they did this or they did that. That guy's super smart. No, I was just willing to try every other way until this fucking worked, all right?

And that's the attitude that we have to have. And yeah, when you've been doing it for 25 years and you've done pretty well, because you're willing to go out and get smashed in the face over and over and over again with bad ideas or bad thoughts or mistakes until you find the right one, people are going to think you're a fucking genius, which is kind of cool, but it's not the truth. The truth is I'm an idiot, just like all you guys. I don't know what the fuck I'm doing. But I am willing to do this.

I am willing to try it this way, try it that way, try it this other way. Those three didn't work. I got killed on those three. I tried this way, now this new way, and I will keep going until I figure out how to make it work. And I don't give a fuck about what Joe from the old neighborhood has to say.

Or Stacey, the ex girlfriend. I don't give a shit. Fuck them. I care about getting where I'm trying to go. So I don't care if I fail.

I don't care if a million people see it. I don't care if 10 million people see it. I don't care if it's just me seeing it. But I have programmed my mind to look at every situation to determine did I get the best possible outcome there? And if I didn't get the best possible outcome, how do I improve my technique to get the best possible outcome?

And I do this in my life. I do this in my business, I do this in my training. It is a mindset that you must have, which is, I am always looking for ways to get better. So when you think about failing, don't just think of it like, oh, I got this big failure, and all my friends from high school are going to laugh at me. Good.

You need that fuel. Thank them. Write them a thank you card. There's about 100 people that I know, their names legit, that I should write them a card today and say, hey, thanks for making fun of me. Because here I am.

I'm rich, bitch, and you ain't right. I should be fucking writing motherfuckers cards all day long. Let them laugh. Let them snicker, let them talk shit, and then use that as fuel to push you forward. But never be afraid of failing.

Never be afraid of being embarrassed. Because, bro, those people are going to be embarrassed by the scope of the life that they create. You're going to be embarrassed for a short amount of time because you're working to create a better life. There's a completely different perspective to have here when it comes to this. So instead of looking at it like, oh, I want to try this, because all my friends are going to laugh, except they're going to laugh, be thankful that they laugh, use that as fuel, and be willing to look at every single way to get something done until you figure it the fuck out.

And if you have that mindset, if you have the ability to continue to try new things and understand that the things that didn't work, you're not going to repeat, you're not going to make the same mistake twice, and you have the ability to continue down the path for as long as it fucking takes, bro. You can't fail. It's fucking impossible. It's impossible. People only fail for one of two reasons.

They fail because, one, they're too fucking stupid to not make the same mistake over and over and over again. We see this with alcoholics, we see this with, with womanizers. We see this with these things in society. Drug addicts. These people can't get over that one thing, so they do the same thing over and over and over and over and over again.

It wrecks their fucking life. All right? People do that in business, too. So you have to be smart enough to not fuck up more than once or twice on the same thing. If you're that smart, which all of you are, you wouldn't be listening to shit.

You have enough intelligence to make it. And it takes toughness on top of that. And if you're that tough to where you're willing to do this for as long as it takes, no matter how fucking hard it is, if you could build yourself into that kind of person who could persevere through the hardships and never fucking quit until you get where you want to go, bro. It's impossible to fail. It's fucking impossible.

Okay? So stop thinking of it like, oh, I want to hear what this guy's failure, I'm sure, bro, I fucking failed everything. I failed so much shit, I couldn't even fucking tell you all the shit I failed. Like, bro, like, sometimes I sit in the office with Chris or Sal or Jason, and we'll be like, bro, remember that time we did this? And we'll fucking laugh because how stupid we were.

All right, it's okay to be stupid. Just don't stay stupid. I love that one thing you said, man, that I really love is you said, not every failure is going to reveal the lesson, right? And so I feel like this kind of aligns with, with, with something very specific, and it's just intent. Like, you have to be very, very intent for when looking at and reflecting on.

It's a mindset. Good shit and bad shit. It's a mindset. Yeah. What did I learn right here?

What? Like, every day, I go in the gym, I work out, I walk out of the gym. You know what I'm doing? I'm self evaluating. What did I do well?

What did I not do well? How can I be better? What can I do better next time? I've been training for fucking 25 years. 30 years, and still doing that.

Yes, I do that with everything. When I have a conversation with someone that I first meet for the first time and I'm walking away, I'm replaying the conversation in my head. I'm saying, oh, I could have done this or that or this. I should have shook his hand a little better. I should have looked him in the eye a little better.

I should have asked him more questions. When I walk away from an important meeting, I'm dissecting the meeting. This is self assessment. I am looking for my failures, big or small, so that I can improve them. Because as you look at them over the course of time, you end up plugging all these holes, and over the course of 20 years, you end up being a pretty bulletproof motherfucker.

You got all your holes patched. You're pretty good at all areas. You understand? And you don't stop self evaluating just because you got good at it. Okay?

So it's a mindset. Actively look for your failures, big or small. Look to make adjustments. Self assess. Don't worry about the big failures where everybody's going to laugh.

You're going to have plenty of those. So those are coming. You're not going to avoid them. So embrace them. Take the laughs.

Look at these motherfuckers and give them the finger in your head and realize that, hey, one day I'm going to be the one fucking laughing. Because you will be. I love that man. You can do that. You give him the finger, too.

Unknown
And, like, you know, not just in your head. The best way to get people the finger is with the results you produce. Yeah. You don't have to say shit. I don't to say fucking shit anymore.

Andy Frisella
That's the best feeling in the world, what I'm gonna say, like, I see one of these people have fucking laughed me back in the day.

I didn't have to say anything. They know. They know. Yeah. That's awesome shit, bro.

It's. That's worth the persevering in itself. Like when you can look someone in the eye who's fucking doubted you, has made fun of you, who's talked shit on you to your face, who's told you that you wouldn't be shit, and you don't have to fucking say anything because they already fucking know. There ain't nothing better than that, bro. Yeah.

Unknown
I love it, man. I love it. Guys. Andy, question number two. Hey, Andy.

I've been through 75 hard, fully twice now, and finished phase two both times. I'm wondering if there is a thing when you start getting really consistent, to want to take on too many things at once because you feel like you can take on the world. I know this is what the power list is for, but I find myself a lot of times adding task upon task inside of the powerless because I feel like I can take it and be consistent. So my question is, when you start getting really consistent, can it be an issue to want to take on too much? All right, look, there's a fundamental idea out here in the world that to be successful, you have to fucking work 27 hours out of 24 a day.

Andy Frisella
You got. You can't sleep, you can't do anything. And that's all bullshit. Okay? The truth of the matter is you only have to do a few critical tasks every day.

Five. The rest of the day, you can live like a normal human. That's the point of the power list. The point of the power list is to allow you to be effective and move forward and not feel like you have to be one of these people that doesn't sleep, that doesn't spend any time with their family, that doesn't have a life at all. That is all bullshit.

And that's bullshit that's spewed for motherfuckers who haven't actually built anything. Are there going to be imbalances? Yes. Compared to whom? Compared to the average motherfucker that wakes up at 1030 on Saturday and starts drinking bush.

Yeah, he can do that. You can't do that. Okay? But you're giving that up to go be a fucking multimillionaire and build an awesome life. All right, so there's imbalances in your life.

You're going to work a lot more than everybody else, but the purpose of the powerless is so that you could be effective and still have some semblance of normalcy in your life. All right? So can you do too much? Yeah, you can try to do too much. And here's the problem with trying to do too much.

Not only does it throw your life out of balance. But you get into a situation where you can't complete all the tasks. And when you start to not be able to complete the tasks, you start to fail in your own mind. Okay? Those wins that you're stacking up with five critical tasks, those become losses.

And what happens to your mental state after 30 days of straight losses? What do you think? Does your confidence go up or down? Yeah, goes down. All right, so when your confidence goes down, your belief goes down.

When your belief goes down, your ability to execute goes down. When your ability to execute goes down, you're fucked. All right? So we have to operate in a way where we are effective day in and day out so that our confidence stays high, our self esteem stays high, our. Our ability to execute stays high, and we're able to continue down the path in a very effective way.

Does this make sense? It makes perfect sense. So if you. This happens a lot with the power list. The powerless is not just a tool to make you effective.

It is a tool to make you more confident in yourself. Just like 75 hard, all right? 75 hard and the power list are two different systems that, when used together, really make you fucking unstoppable, all right? But the idea here is that you don't doubt yourself. You don't lose belief in yourself.

You don't question yourself, because, you know, no matter what, what you put down on that motherfucking list is getting done, and it's getting done at a high level. And that way, when you wake up in the morning and you know those mornings we wake up and you look in the mirror and you're like, fuck, dude, I don't know. I feel behind, blah, blah, blah. You can literally open up your power list and say, well, fuck, dude, I got 37 days in a row of wins. What the fuck else more could I be doing?

And then all of a sudden, that doubt, that anxiety, that fear, that frustration, it goes away and you're like, oh, I just got to go do it again. And then when you do that for a long enough time, dude, your life looks completely different. So, yeah, bro, you can do too much, and you have to realize what your limits are. And you have to realize that if you try to do too much and you don't execute, it's going to destroy your confidence, create doubt, frustration, disbelief, which makes you ineffective in other areas. I feel like that takes, like, that's a different type of discipline, right?

Unknown
Like, okay, you checked off the five boxes. You feel fucking great. It's fucking 11:00 in the morning, and oh, I mean, there's one more thing I can knock out. Right? Like, I feel like.

So, I mean, do you just not. You're not doing that or you're not counting that as being done? Well, of course. Look, dude, there's critical tasks, then there's to do shit. Yeah.

Andy Frisella
Okay. Your critical task moves your whole life forward. These are important phone calls, important connections, things that are going to move. It depends on where you are in a life, but these things are going to move your life forward. Then there's all the other shit you got to do.

I got to do laundry. Take out the trash. I got to take out. Those are not on your pool, right? Yeah, exactly.

So. So, dude, it's two different. Two different things. I could do a whole workshop on power list, 75 hard and optimal performance for an entire day. I could talk about it for fucking 12 hours.

Unknown
Yeah. So really, the best thing is to go. Go listen to both podcasts. Episode 16 episode 208 put those into your life. Follow them exactly as they are laid out.

Andy Frisella
The biggest problem that we have is that people who are unqualified, who have never built anything, who have never achieved anything, think that they can edit programs that are built by people who have done all the things that you want to do. And that's no different than fucking up an award winning recipe that the best chef in the world gives you because you think you're a fucking chef master when you've never cooked a motherfucking thing in your life. So go fucking listen. Listen to what it says. Do it literally the way it says, and it will work for you.

Unknown
Love it, man. Well, guys, Andy, our third and final question. Um, Andy, I'm a 16 year old junior that plays soccer at high school. My freshman year, I was weighing in at approximately 180 pounds and five foot eight. I believe my skill level is above average for my high school team, however, because I'm not super fast and I didn't make varsity.

So the next year, I dropped almost 40 pounds and increased my endurance and speed to be in the top half of the team. I made varsity as a sophomore, but the coach played some freshman over me who I destroyed all summer. In practices, I actually destroyed most of the team all summer. Coach said he doesn't like my attitude. My attitude is one of wanting to win and succeed.

I do get mad when other. When players are hogging the ball and not aware on the field. I've made comments about other players needing to be more aware. Not sure how criticism is a bad attitude. I thought that is how you explain that okay.

Yeah. I thought that is how you help others improve. My question is, am I wrong? Is it possible to change the coaches opinion, or is it not worth it? I was by far the most improved player.

I love soccer and always want to be involved. Any advice is welcome. I can actually take criticism, unlike some of these weak ass mama boys. I fucking love this kid. Hey, you know.

Andy Frisella
All right, look. All right. Assuming everything you say is true, here's why you're not playing, okay? And I'm gonna. This goes for people in the workplace.

This goes for athletes. This goes for anybody that is on a team that is not getting the love that they think they deserve. Assuming that you are of the proper skillset, which you say you are, assuming that you are a hard worker, which you say you are, assuming that you actually are better than the other people, which you say, I'm gonna take you for your word. Now, if I can't watch one of your fucking practices, I might find out that you're full of shit. Okay?

Because 16 year olds are typically full of shit.

My first point to you would be to make sure that you are actually those things, because our egos have a way of telling us that we are better than we actually are. So are you really that good? Or do you think you're that good? Because if your mom's telling you that good, it'll be shit. If your dad's telling you that good, that don't mean shit.

If you're putting more points in the fucking board than everybody else, that's what means something. All right? So be honest. Are you that good? It'd be my first thing.

Assuming that you are that good. I'm going to tell you why you're not playing. You're not fucking playing because your attitude is one that if it spreads to the rest of the team, if your coach rewards that, it will destroy the culture of the team. Okay? So there is something that you're doing that is not in line with the proper attitude or the culture of the team that is keeping you from playing.

Because if that attitude that isn't in line with what the team needs is promoted and rewarded, now the coach loses control over the entire team. Do you see what I'm saying? So a lot of people don't understand this. This happens in the workplace. There's lots of times where the most skilled person who sells the most shit, who blah blah blah, has the best, this.

They get fired because their attitude is, I'm the best. Nothing else should matter when that's not true. Okay? So we have to understand the coaches perspective here. And the coach is looking at it like, what's the kid's name?

Does he say his name? Doesn't say his name. Okay, Steve. I'm gonna just use Steve. Steve is the best player out here, man.

He's fucking great. He's a sophomore. He's got tons of potential. But fuck, man, he's always telling everybody else he's hogging the ball. He's always telling everybody else they got to get their shit together.

You know, it comes off as cocky. It's not the right team attitude. And fuck, we can't reward that, because if we reward that, then everybody's going to act like that. Now we got a problem. Okay?

So a lot of times, in fact, most times, when you are clearly the high skilled player or you're the best salesman or you're the best this or that, and you're not getting the love that you think it's because your attitude is not congruent with what the culture of the team is going to be. And if it's rewarded, it will dilute the culture of the team. Yeah. All right. Yeah.

Unknown
Cause you can't win. You can't win the game with just you, bro. Nope. It's not even that, dude. Yes, that's true.

Andy Frisella
But if I fucking reward that. Yeah, if I'm the coach of your team and you're a shitty little fucking attitude. Fuck. But you score 70 goals a game. 70.

But you fucking talk shit to your players. And you fucking. You tell them they're all ball hogs and you tell them, give me the ball. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. You got to sit on the bench, bro.

I don't give a fuck. So your coach is trying to teach you a lesson, and here's my advice. Shut the fuck up. Play soccer, score goals, be good, shut your mouth. Work harder than everybody else, and you're probably going to play in the games.

Probably. Your coach is playing that freshman over you to teach you a fucking lesson in humility. And what he's trying to tell you, and I'm just telling you what he's trying to tell you, is this. Your performance ain't the only thing that matters. And that's true.

It's true in every organization. There's very few times, there's very few anomalies where people are so good that they can be a bad culture fit and still get to play. Barry Bonds was like this in baseball. Barry Bonds, his teammates, fuck. Fucking hated him.

Okay? And I know this because I know people who play with them, they fucking hated him. But the dude hit a home run every fucking time he's at bat, so you can't sit him on the fucking bench. Yeah. You see what I'm saying?

So are you that good? Are you scoring ten goals a game? Probably not, right? Are you scoring two goals a game? Probably not.

Right. So you ain't that good. You ain't good enough to have that attitude, and you don't want that attitude anyway, because, and by the way, I'll say this, I think this person's heart is in the right place. Cause you sound like you want people to get better. You're trying to improve them.

I totally understand that, bro. But you need to understand the other side. You're not getting the love from the coach because you're. You're going to make his job harder if he puts you in the. In the spot because of the way that you're talking to other people.

So this is what I would do. I would go to the coach, say, coach, why aren't you playing me, man? I'm not going to be mad. I just want to know honestly, like, what is it? And I'm not going to pout, I'm not going to scream, I'm not going to throw a fit.

Just tell me why I'm not playing. Because I. I'm better than this kid. I think I'm better. If I'm not better, tell me, why am I not playing?

He. I bet you he's gonna say, well, you say this stuff to the other kids. You got this all wrong with your attitude. And instead of arguing with them, you say, I got it. And you go do what the fuck he says, and you go perform, you shut the fuck up.

And then you become a leader to the other guys. And not only will you not get. Not only will you get in the game, he'll fucking put you at the front of the stack. So, yeah, I think. I think that's super cool, too, because, like, dude, it sounds like, you know, you know how to see a problem and you go fix it, right?

You had to work on your endurance, you worked on your speed. Yeah, great. Now we gotta fix this over here. Dj, a lot of times people can't see it from the leaders perspective or the coach's perspective or the boss's perspective. They don't even.

That goes right over their head. Like, there's been a lot of people in my companies over the year who were high performers that got washed out because they could not grasp this concept. Like, you cannot be a bad fit for the team culturally, even if you're a great performer individually, because that's poisons the well. And that creates a whole bunch of people that operate autonomously, which makes it impossible to get people coordinated to row the right direction. Right.

So you make. Even because you're a high performer and because you know you're better than everyone, you start doing things the way that you want to do, and that fucks up the entire. Now I have 40 guys all rowing, doing whatever the fuck they want. You can't win that way. The boat sitting still, man.

That's right. So we. So a big part of this, if you're an employee or a teammate, is to consider it from the leadership's perspective. If you had a guy who was super talented but a bad cultural fit and it was going to cause you all these problems, how would you handle it? And if you could just think about it from the opposite perspective, it makes a lot more sense.

So what I would do, bro, is go talk to your coach. Be honest. Don't react. Don't fucking pout, don't fucking roll your eyes, because, dude, that's another thing. A lot of times, these players and these people will come to you and you tell them the shit, and they start rolling.

Now you fucking hate them. Now you're like, you know what? Fuck you. Okay? And that's what you don't want to cause.

Don't react. Don't get emotional. Listen to him. Take what he's saying seriously and go out and perform and be a good fucking teammate and a good leader. You'll get a lot further that way.

Yeah, that's real, man. Just real quick. I remember when I was coaching there. There's a player right now who plays for an NFL team right now. Everybody knows his name.

I've coached him. And he had some of these. These. Yeah. And.

And I remember this exact conversation, and it wasn't, you know, I didn't tell him this was the head coach, man, but he told me. So you think just because you're that good that none of that other shit matter? It was very similar conversation. But he told me, like, so what. Are you gonna do?

You gonna hike the ball to yourself? Throw the ball to yourself? All this, like, every. Nobody else matters? Like, no, that's not how that works.

You know what I'm saying? And you take that advice. Look where he's at. Yeah. You know, I'm saying, I think.

Dude, I think that's awesome, man. I think that's fucking awesome. I love it. Well, guys, Andy, that was three. All right, guys, let's go out.

Andy Frisella
Let's kick some asses. Have a good week. I'll see you tomorrow. Sleeping on the flow now. My jury box froze.
