And it's just like jumping out of a plane right? We jump out of a plane, oh the parachute didn't work right? Okay, so the first time you do that you might freak out. The second time you might say, okay so I know what to do. Here's the checklist. I've got a backup parachute. I've got three other cords. I can untangle it. You know the right things to do and really that's what it's about. You know they don't really care about it.

But as far as just you know entrepreneurship and business goes I mean like they say you know if there’s blood in the street buy real estate. Dude, there was blood in the street and a lot a lot of wealth was created and now like we’re in l.a like everything’s open. People aren’t wearing masks and stuff and you’re looking around and I’m like people are back to buying 7.50 lattes on the corner here and like it’s almost like nothing changed

That the the first thing we tell people is don’t come to the table with an idea the best thing the best students the ones that succeed the most is the ones that have no idea what they’re going to sell and I’ll tell you why. Because by the way we don’t we don’t believe in building a better mousetrap and the world will beat its way to your door. That’s the old model right. That’s disruption marketing with.

I don’t have one of these big courses and I’m not one of these dudes that’s like check out my lambo check out like the babes in my yacht and like my mega mansions and like all that right. We I do this for a living. We make millions of dollars a year selling on amazon. It’s well documented. I’m many times over a millionaire. I no longer need the money but I do it because I like empowering people.

So there’s mixed messages and there’s vulnerabilities and if you know how to exploit those vulnerabilities you can win, which is why I oftentimes you know I get asked to talk about black hat tactics and grey hat tactics yeah you know white hat tactics and the fact is there’s nobody who is successful that just does everything strictly by uh TOS, you know terms of service you know we follow what they tell us to do.

I think in general I’ll tell you the number one problem that most entrepreneurs have and that’s that they have the old way of thinking. Most entrepreneurs think to themselves dude I’m gonna Randy, I’m gonna go out there and create a better mousetrap and the world that’s going to beat its way to my door and quickly they learn that in this world of social media and all these types of things that nobody gives a that you have a better mousetrap.

So there are lots of ways, lots of hacks to do that but you know no one there’s no one thing that you’re gonna do that’s gonna make your thing pop. You got to think again, yeah you got to think foundational. You got to do all of that stuff and then truly you know I’m going to give a disclaimer that I don’t recommend anybody do anything black hat against terms of service but again you know most people do a little white hat greyhound little black hat stuff you know and that’s the way the world goes around.

That at the end of the day, what was Steve Jobs doing? What was Bill Gates did when he sat in that room creating all that code for windows? He was communicating with people. Steve Jobs was influencing people. So to bend reality you have to be unreasonable and you have to be able to have that power of influence which comes through what you very astutely observed charisma.

I think anyone that starts a movement of any significance must have been incredibly charismatic. I mean you look at the leaders around the world today, the Richard Bransons and even the Donald Trumps. Half the people were charmed by him. I mean half the united states really really got behind his version of what he thought was real and won in the election.

Is that chasing money never works and I coach people and I know you coach people too is to chase excellence not money because the difference in lifestyle between having a hundred million dollars and having a billion dollars you know it’s it really doesn’t have to be that different? You can have everything that you ever wanted in life with a hundred million dollars.

So I think getting wealthy is the same thing if you don’t have the discipline to earn it or to save or to live miserly. We had a whole episode on how miserly you are and I thought it was hilarious how you still use coupons and so does my dad you know very very wealthy people but they have discipline.

So you don’t want to always be thinking that you’re poor. I think you did a great thing. When the lady is like that’s 28 so her world, in her reality was 28 dollars is a lot of money. You could tell by the emotion of her voice but you don’t want your son thinking that. You don’t want to think that because that gives you a stuckness about things. It’s like risking money in a real estate transaction or the stock market.

But we’re making micro moves to get ourselves in a better position or in a less shitty position depending on where you’re at. Until you can you can achieve freedom and at the end of the day, you’ve got to have an unshakable self-belief as Richard Koch talks about in his book Unreasonable Success and how to achieve it.

You want to make sure that you are on top of your game when you go into battle in any type and that applies to the business part and that’s so so brilliant that you say that because that’s really true because some days we’re off and if you off take the day off back off don’t go into battle unless you are on and it’s an on the day for you.

I mean look sometimes you can get lucky right? Sometimes you can be born into money, sometimes you can marry a rich person you know. Yeah, you can get lucky but for the majority of us that’s not gonna happen and you know there’s really you know I talk we have a podcast called hack and grow rich.

So the first thing I’m gonna tell you and this is a little contradictory to what some people say. The first thing that I’ll tell you is that somebody told me once that if you do what you love you’ll never work a day in your life. That doesn’t mean you won’t wake up and go to a job. It just means that because you love what you do, it doesn’t feel like work and so the first key is picking something that you don’t hate.

And I do a lot of difficult things. I solve a lot of tricky problems but when I look at my life and I look at my work, I never think to myself that it’s hard and I don’t think that life in general really was ever meant to be a struggle. People that are struggling usually aren’t the same people that are succeeding so if you can let go of struggle and get into the flow and there’s a lot of great tactics for doing that you’ll be in a far better place in life.

You know I think there’s an old adage that says when the student is ready, the teacher appears. Okay and for me it was really that you know, I had an unshakeable self-belief really for no good reason and I went out there and I was not going to fail. There was nothing that was going to keep me down for very long.
