He makes me feel 8 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: like less of a man than anyone with whom I've 9 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: ever spoken, But he's extraordinary and for somebody who grew 10 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: up watching him do infomercials, it's interesting to see how 11 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: his career is evolved to being kind of an elite 12 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 1: coach to CEOs, even presidency the United States.

Never went to college, self taught, 20 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: became a guru to everybody, from Bill Clinton to Mark 21 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: Bennioff to mother Teresa. I can't believe everything. He's a 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: chief Ryan at fifty seven, and there's still so much 23 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: more he wants to do. And I don't know about you, 24 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: I have no doubt that he will do it. And 25 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: in addition to being a self help titan, he's involved 26 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: in thirty one businesses.

And Brian is here with me, and 34 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: we were talking about your extraordinary career. I mean, I 35 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: don't know, how how do you describe yourself because I 36 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: know how your press materials do. I'm a you know, 37 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: I'm a peak performance coach. I'm a consultant for people, 38 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: but you know I'm also an entrepreneur and philanthropist. You know, 39 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: big part of my life today is besides helping people 40 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: and events and things of that nature, I have thirty 41 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: one companies, so they're in very different industries. You know, 42 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: I'm everything from I have a unique opportunity to do 43 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: some some of the best stem cell work in the world. 44 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: While simultaneously we've got virtual reality, the exclusive with the NBA, 45 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: so you know, you see Monday Night Football, We're having 46 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: Tuesday Night NBA. We have the exclusive with Live Nation, 47 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: so we have I have about twelve Dred employees across 48 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: four continents. We do five billion in sales each year. 49 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: And then I have my jay job, which is about 50 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: of my time because I love it so much, which 51 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: is helping people improve their lives. And then philanthropy wise, 52 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: you know, I'm feeding a hundred million people a year now. 53 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: I've done that for two years in a row. I'm 54 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: gonna feed a billion people over the next eight years. 55 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: And it's not because I'm such a good guy. It's 56 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: just when I was eleven years old, we had no 57 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,399 Speaker 1: money and no food on Thanksgiving and a man came 58 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: to the door and delivered food and my father did 59 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: not respond well to it. But I did. My dad 60 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: always said, strangers don't care. And I think the biggest 61 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: impact for me was not just that there was food, 62 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: but the fact that I had evidence of strangers cared 63 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: about my family and made me. It shifted me to 64 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: really care about strangers. So I promised myself I'd feed people, 65 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: and I got to seventeen. I've had two families in 66 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: the next year, four and eventually got to a million, 67 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: two million, And I've fed four million people a year 68 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 1: for about eight years, and then two million myself and 69 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: two millions to my foundation because I thought I fed 70 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: forty two million in a lifetime. What if I had 71 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: fifty million this year? And then I got excited, made 72 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: it a hundred million, and I got Feeding America to 73 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: be my partner, and they deliver. I mean, their efficiency 74 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: is amazing. So we've partnered, so we're gonna feed a 75 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: billion people, and then the numbers were getting should provide 76 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: an ongoing hundred million new meals per year ongoing from 77 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: there on. Can I just say I give up? I 78 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: feel so lazy and useless after just hearing that, I think, wow, 79 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: this is really impressive. Now, you talked about growing up 80 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: in a tough environment and you did. Your dad left, 81 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: as I understand, when you were very had four fathers, Yes, 82 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,239 Speaker 1: they all left. Your mom was quite abusive. In fact, 83 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: you left home when you were seventeen when your mom 84 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: came after you with a knife. Can you describe how 85 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: that upbringing kind of shaped the man you've become since then? 86 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: I never talked about my mom when she's alive. I didn't, 87 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: you know. I still love her to this day. She 88 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 1: she had been the mother that I wanted her to be, 89 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be the man I'm proud to be because 90 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: the fact that I suffered so much, I mean she would. 91 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: She was addicted to you know, prescription drugs and alcohol, 92 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 1: and the mixed is not a good mix. And she 93 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: got very violent. And I have a younger brother and 94 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 1: younger sister five and seven years younger. So for me, 95 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: I had to become a practical psychologist just to figure 96 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: out to keep her in control, not hurt them much 97 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: less hurt me. And so I really really grew as 98 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: a result of that. I mean, I have suffered so 99 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: much that I don't want to see any human suffer. 100 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: And I became obsessed with finding answers to how to 101 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: help people and their suffering, how to have them have 102 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: the beauty that they want for their life. And it 103 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: just turned into a forty year enterprise. Uh, you know, 104 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: and I've had the privilege of living in a time 105 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: where you know, I go to twelve thirteen countries a year, 106 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: I see a quarter of a million people live. I mean, 107 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: you couldn't have done that, you know, fifty years ago, 108 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: you know, Tony, you know, I think that kind of 109 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: childhood experience would have destroyed so many people. What was 110 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: it about you and about sort of your psyche, your constitution, 111 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: your outlook on life that you were able to turn 112 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: it into something so positive. I'm sure you've examined that. 113 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: I have. I think that what saved me was reading 114 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: my I early in my life I got exposed to 115 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: personal improvement and personal development, and I took a speed 116 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: reading class, and I promised myself I'd read a book 117 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: of dad and do that. But I read seven hundred 118 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: books in seven years, and they were all psychology, physiology, 119 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: anything that could improve the quality of life. And so 120 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: because I was feeding my mind so much, I think 121 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: that really gave it. The other part was I just 122 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: love people, and so you know, I love my brother 123 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: and sister. To start with, I just want to help them. 124 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: But by the time I was in high school, I 125 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: would I had so many answers. I was Mr. Solution 126 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: you had a problem, especially if you're a girl. I 127 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: was highly to help you get over that stupid boy 128 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: in your life you were. I have such strong memories 129 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: as a kid watching your infomercials on TV. That's how 130 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: I first got introduced to you. That's Brian's way of 131 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: reminding us how young he is. I'm not so young. 132 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: I'm practically middle aged now, but practically. But the point is, 133 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people who may have gotten 134 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: introduced to you that way don't know that you've become 135 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 1: this advisor to CEOs like Mark Bennie Off and Paul 136 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: Tutor Jones, that you've advised Richard Branson, Steve wins, Serena Williams, 137 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: pat Riley On and on. How is your career kind 138 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: of gone from you know, TV self improvement guru to 139 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: advisor to the CEO stars. Well, I was always even 140 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: early my life. Quite frankly, I was a young kid, 141 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: but I had unique insights because I had loaded my brain. 142 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: You know, I'd gone for so many answers that I 143 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: had them. I didn't have all the life experience yet, 144 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: but I had this incredible passion to help people, and 145 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: so it allowed me at early age, I was turning around. 146 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: You know, when I was gosh Hose, I was twenty 147 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: let's say the eighteen nineteen nineteen, twenty years old. I 148 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: was turning around Olympic athletes. Twenty four. I turned around 149 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: Andrea Agassi when he'd been number one and dropped to 150 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: twenty nine, and got him back to number one, and 151 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: he gave me enormous credit. Maybe too much, maybe not, 152 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: but I helped him turn around either, I'm grateful. And 153 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: then you know when I got to the President Clinton 154 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: at that stage, and mother Teresa and Nelson Mandela at 155 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: the game James Dropper, No, I have a name dropping 156 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: because they were just such incredible human beings that I 157 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: got the privilege to coach. I was pinching myself. But 158 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: I also wasn't stupid enough to only coach them. I 159 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: was learning from them. So for forty years I've not 160 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: just been coaching others thinking I got all the answers. 161 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: I've been sucking the juice out of the brains of 162 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: the smartest people I can find and most heartfelt people 163 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: I could find doing the same thing I did with 164 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: the financial And I said, if I want to, really, 165 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: I've taught this for years, but I was so angry 166 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: what happened in two thousand eight and that no one 167 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: paid a price for it that by I said, I 168 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: got to use my skill. I've got. I have this 169 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: unique gift I've coached Paul Tutor Jones for at that point, 170 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: I think twenty years and twenty four years and now 171 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: one of the leading investment managers went to uv A 172 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: with me, and I asked him after many years after 173 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: we graduated, Hey, Paul, where were you when I was 174 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: at u v A thinking, you know, that would have 175 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: been a nice person to hook up with it you 176 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And he said said to me, 177 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: I was probably drunk, And I said, no, wonder we 178 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: didn't meet. But anyway, continue well, Paul, as you know, 179 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: as a gift to this country and a gift to 180 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: the city for sure, with Robin Hood and all that 181 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: he's done, and I've learned so much from him. But 182 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: but that's really what I've tried to do along the way, 183 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: as I've tried to learn by other people's experiences, because 184 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: you know, in business, other people's money is leverage. I 185 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: think what's much more valuable in other people's money is 186 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: other people's experience. When that other person's experiences dynamic and extraordinary, 187 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, it's wild. So really, in helping them, they're 188 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 1: helping you. They all tell about Tony changed my life, 189 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: saved my life. You know, you bring Mark Banning off 190 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: some one of my dearest friends. And I can remember 191 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: Mark coming up to me after attending three seminars are 192 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: always hard to miss. He's standing in the front row. 193 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: He's as big as I am. Right, he comes up 194 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: and shakes my hand. He goes, this is my third seminar. 195 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: I said, yeah, I know, he says. He goes, you 196 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: just convinced me. You finally pushed me off the edge. 197 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: And he says, I'm I'm leaving my job and I'm 198 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: gonna start this new company called Salesforce dot com and 199 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna change the business world, and you're gonna remember, 200 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: and you're gonna come on the journey with me. And 201 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 1: he goes, I'll everyday he looked at me. He goes, 202 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: Mark my words, we're gonna do a hundred million dollars 203 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: in business. Of course they're gonna do ten billion this year, right, 204 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: So it's just a fun journey to see those things. 205 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: But he says, if this is my favorite quote because 206 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: it certainly serves me, goes around and tells everybody Salesforce 207 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't exist if it wasn't for Tony Robbins. That's bullshit. 208 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 1: But I really like that he says it. But I 209 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: think what people may have trouble understanding is, you know, 210 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: you're sitting down with President Bill Clinton during the height 211 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: of the depths of the Lewinsky scandal, and he's looking 212 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: to you for advice. What can you tell him that 213 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: he doesn't already know the truth? Um, I was with 214 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: Peter Goober. I don't know if you know Peter owns 215 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: the Dodgers and the Golden State Warriors and no, but 216 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: his partner dated used the two. We don't want to 217 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: spread that rumor you can get in trouble his wife. 218 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: But I was at Peter's house that was you spend 219 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: every Christmas with him and AskMen. And he calls me 220 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: and says, presidents on the line. So what So I 221 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: got a line. The President said, you know, I've had 222 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: ten people tell me that right now, I'm going through 223 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: a tough time. You're the right guy. Would you come 224 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: to Camp David and spend the weekend and talk with me? 225 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: And I said, I can't come for the weekend and 226 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: come for the day because this holiday I gotta be 227 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: with my family. But I said, I just want you 228 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 1: to know I'm not a fan. And Peter, I'll never 229 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: get Peter's face. I said, I'm completely respectful. It would 230 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: be a privilege to serve you. But if you're looking 231 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: for someone who's going to tell you what you want 232 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: to hear, I'm the wrong guy. And there's a long pause, 233 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 1: and then President Clinton said, I like that. I'm looking 234 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 1: for something. I'm not looking to be told what I believe. 235 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: I said, great, then I'm happy to come. I don't 236 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: the phone in Peterson. You just told the President Nited 237 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: states you're not as fan. I have to invite to come. 238 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: What the how's the matter with you? You know? So 239 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: I went met with the President and developed a real 240 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: great friendship. But I can remember after the Blue Dress 241 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: we were an AskMen together and going down the Red 242 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: Mountain if you know that area, you know, and it's 243 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: snowy and there it's surreal. You know, the President's motorcade 244 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: in the middle of the night, going down this icy 245 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: mountaintop and he said to me, goes, he said, you know, god, 246 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: I'd run again if I could. And I was like, dude, 247 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: if I were you, I'd get the hell out of 248 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 1: dodge us teasing him, and he goes, no time, what 249 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: am I gonna do with the rest of my life. 250 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: I'm fifty or fifty one whatever he was at the time, 251 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: And uh, it's kind of crazy now because I just 252 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: saw him last weekend and just to see what he's 253 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: done with his life. I know he's obviously massively disappointed 254 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: what happened in the election, but to see what he's 255 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: done out of office is truly inspiring. It's inspiring that 256 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: you can't imagine. But to address what you said, I 257 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: was thirty one and I'm advising the president nited states. 258 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: It's kind of trippy. I'm you know, a deer went 259 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: running by. It's in the middle of the snow, and 260 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,439 Speaker 1: the President's telling me how bad the media is. It's 261 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: so funny you tell me at that time and they 262 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: don't listen. And you know, he's the first president that 263 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,079 Speaker 1: doesn't have an external enemy, so now everybody's turning internally, 264 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: was his view. I remember thinking, this guy's president United 265 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: States and he's whining, and it's like, I guess we 266 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: all whine at times. And I got to figure out 267 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: what to do to help this man and long term relationship, well, 268 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: I don't talk about what I do with people unless 269 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: they talk about it publicly. Something I can tell you 270 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: is one day, one of the more interesting calls I got, 271 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: can call me. One day I was at my office, 272 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 1: people paid me and I get him the phone and 273 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: he says, they're gonna impeach me in the morning. What 274 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: should I do? And I'm like, first, could you have 275 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: called me sooner? Yes, tomorrow morning, right? And I said, 276 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 1: that's the wrong question. And the question you gotta ask 277 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,599 Speaker 1: is what do you really want? Because what to do 278 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: is based on the outcome you're after. If you want 279 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: to stay in office, do nothing because the Senate's not 280 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: gonna impeach you. Easy for me to say, I'm not 281 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: the president under pressure, but you know as well as 282 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: I do, they're not gonna teach you. I said, so 283 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: you can do nothing. If you want to be respected 284 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: then by American people, by children, by parents. Then I said, 285 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: I know you're not gonna put yourself You're a lawyer, 286 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: you're not gonna put yourself in jail. But you've got 287 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: to communicate with more clarity about what's really going on 288 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: and take responsibility for the things that were a mess up. 289 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: And I had this moment where he said, you're so right, 290 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 1: You're so right. So I'm so glad I called you said, 291 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: I'll call you back. I'm gonna call you back in 292 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: forty five minutes, and I thought, holy shit, I'd influenced 293 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: the president move in the right direction, right what I 294 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: could through the right direction. And then his secretary called 295 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: me about thirty minutes later. He's still with the group, 296 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: but he wants to know he's focused on it. In 297 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 1: about three hours called at the time at four hours later, 298 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 1: he was stadding, with all the Democrats, you know, and 299 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: they're saying, you know, this is all bullshit and we're 300 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: gonna fight this thing. But so I've had some wild rides. 301 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: I've had a chance to sit down with Mr Gorbachoff, 302 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: you know, right after you know, he was taken out 303 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: of office, and spend time and bring him. I've I've 304 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 1: had a ticket to history and it's been an incredible 305 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: privilege and I've learned so much, and I try to 306 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: take that and make it practical for the average person 307 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 1: so they can prove their life or you know, the 308 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: leader that calls when it's time to interm intervene. Just 309 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: on the on the President Clinton front. You got to 310 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: know Hillary Clinton well as well? Have you have my 311 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: Trump as well? Yeah, well we'll get to that in 312 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: a moment. But one of the things I thought about 313 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: was Monica Lewinsky. I saw her not long ago in 314 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, and I always felt that she had I mean, 315 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: I was going to say she got the short end 316 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: of the stick, and then I just realized that I'm 317 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: sorry that I was. I was searching. I was searching 318 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: Alec Baldwin and Donald Trump apression so unfairly and I 319 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: you know, and and so villainized, and she was. You know, 320 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: I have a daughter who's twenty one years old, Tony, 321 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: and I think about she, Well, you know, she's a kid, 322 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: she's a college girl, and I felt like she was 323 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: she made a mistake but also taking advantage of in 324 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: a very serious way. Did you ever think about her 325 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: or reaching out to her? Actually, um, I've reached out 326 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: all the time on something there, like I reached out 327 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: to Tiger Woods. Actually, probably a dozen people reached out 328 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: for for me to Dagger Woods, but he got in 329 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: motors like I don't want to help, and he didn't 330 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: do it. So Um, as far as her, I didn't 331 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: reach out her directly, but I always let people know 332 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: that I'm available, and I work with people on both 333 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: sides of the aisle. I'm an independent personally. I worked 334 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: with whoever I think is a great leader. Um, but 335 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: you know she's the kind of person if you know 336 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: her and want to invite her. I'm doing an event. 337 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: I think she's based in l A now is and 338 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: she years if she wants to come. I'm doing one 339 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: for ten thousand people in two weeks and she could 340 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: come as our guests and would blow her mind. I 341 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: can promise you that. So if she wants, if you 342 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: want invite her as my guests, will do it. But 343 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: it's interesting, europe psychology expert, you're clearly really great at 344 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 1: leadership coaching, but you never went to college. There's no 345 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: formal training for this. You said you've learned from the 346 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: people with whom you've had these discussions. But what do 347 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: you think you offer? What is the value add when 348 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: somebody's sitting across the table from you besides telling them 349 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: the truth? Well, I'm I've spent forty years now at 350 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: this stage where I've gotten the call and I got 351 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: to produce the result. Now, Serena Williams is melting down 352 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: on that sal television. What do I do? I should 353 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: gone through all these problems turn around right now? Um, 354 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: you know kids suicidal, knock on wood. I've never lost 355 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: one suicide in forty years out of thousands. So my 356 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: whole approach has been how do I just really deliver 357 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: results for people? And what every area it is, whether 358 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: it be sports or would be business. And you know, 359 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: I've been obsessed with finding principles that are the best 360 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: principles from find like somebody's been together twenty five years 361 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: and they're still passionate for each other, not just hanging out. 362 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: They're not lucky. They do things differently than other people. 363 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: If you're fit and you've stayed fit for thirty years, 364 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: you're not lucky. You're doing something different. If you're financially 365 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: set and you've started with nothing and you've built it 366 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: that you're not lucky. You did something different. So I 367 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: codify what that difference is. But then I put it 368 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: into a delivery system that's so enjoyable that you love 369 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: while you're learning, and so as a result, you tend 370 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: to really apply it because there's more emotion to it. 371 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: You know, information without emotions not retained. If I said, 372 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: do you remember where you were on nine eleven, everybody 373 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: in this country, in fact, most countries know where they 374 00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: were when they heard it. They can describe where they were, 375 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: who was around them they saw. But I ask you 376 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: where you are on eight eleven, you have no clue 377 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,479 Speaker 1: because information without emotion is not retained. What I do 378 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 1: is I put people in states, psychological emotional states where 379 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: what they learned they feel it, they embed it, they 380 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: experience it, and they live it. And because they live it, 381 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 1: they get results. And then that's grown my brand and 382 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: reputation for fourty years. You're also almost telepathic, you know, 383 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: I watched the documentary, and when you have a huge 384 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: crowd of people, you can almost you do and feel them. 385 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: You can zero in on the person who really seems 386 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: to need your help. It's almost like the Long Island 387 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: medium with shorter nails. How you do that? How do 388 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: you do that? Well, I'm extremely empathetic and and if 389 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,239 Speaker 1: you know anything about the human brain, we have these 390 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: things called mirror neurons, whereas if you're sitting there and 391 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 1: you watch somebody going rowing by, and you keep watching them, 392 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: your brain will actually start to do their rowing and 393 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: your nervous system right. And the more empathetic you are, 394 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: the more your mirror neurons tend to turn on. So 395 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: mine are highly developed for forty years to enter someone's world, 396 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: rapidly feel who they are. And then I have so 397 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: many you know, there's only so many patterns, right, There's 398 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: there's only so many ways. We're the only creatures on 399 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: earth that can make ourselves angry with one thought, happy 400 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: with another, piste off another, excited with another. And so 401 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,719 Speaker 1: I've studied the system of how the brain works, and 402 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 1: so there are not unlimited differences, and so I know 403 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: what to do. There's only so many patterns. But I 404 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: do it different every time because it's more enjoyable. It's 405 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: like a piece of art when somebody stands up, it's done. 406 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: I know it's done. Now, let's just see how it 407 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,199 Speaker 1: shows up and be different every time. Now, not to 408 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: be a bitchy skeptic, but you know, I would say 409 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: that most of the people who come to your seminars, 410 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: Tony are searching for something, are needing something, or unhappy 411 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: in some way, shape or form. Right, And and the 412 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 1: one I was describing the documentary was your six day 413 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: date with Destiny seminar you've had, you know, you do 414 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: dozens of them. I mean how many of you done, 415 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: like eighty of them or seventy nine of them or something, 416 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 1: you know, through the course of your career. So isn't 417 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 1: it safe to say that anybody in that audience is heard? Well, no, 418 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: not necessarily. You'll be surprised. People come from two extremes. 419 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: They come because they're the best in the world. And 420 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: what they do. I mean, Pitball is not hurting, you know, 421 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: and he's you know, I'm constantly interacting in supporting what 422 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: he's doing. Right, Uh, Hugh Jackman is not hurting. Serena 423 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: is not hurting. So it's finding what people need and 424 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: what people who come to see me are hungry. So 425 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: you're right. Some are hungry because of pain. They had 426 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: a birthday with a zero, they went through a divorce, 427 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: their kids have grown up um, you know they have 428 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: been at the same business for twenty years. They made 429 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: million dollars in their board. Out of their mind. They 430 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 1: want something more. Right, someone wants something more, they're gonna 431 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: come see me. But then there's the whole class of people, 432 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 1: which is a huge chunk, which are the best in 433 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 1: the world that are looking for they know one little distinction. 434 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 1: You know, I'm going this direction and make a ten 435 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: degree shift, and you take that on a month and 436 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: now six months, and now you have a different destination, 437 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 1: different destiny. So I get people that are hungry. If 438 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: you're in the lukewarm middle where you're not happy but 439 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: you're not unhappy enough doing about it, you're never gonna 440 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: come see me. But if you're the best in the world, 441 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: you'll talk to the other best and I'll say Tony 442 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: did this for me, and you'll call me. Or if 443 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: you're the best or not the best, but you're really challenged, 444 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: you're going to look for answers. And I'm going to 445 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: be one of those people eventually, just because I've been 446 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: in the culture doing this for forty years. So if 447 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 1: Brian wanted to come, you are very expensive. If Brian 448 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: wanted to come and have a one on one session, Brian, 449 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: I'd like to talk to you about me beginning together 450 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: with Actually I think I could get together with Tony, 451 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: but he's too expensive and I'm too cheap. We should 452 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 1: talk about this because so you charged a million dollars 453 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 1: and they had a percentage of whatever side in their business. Yeah, geez, Louise, 454 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: no wonder you're feeding so many hungry people. You're gonna 455 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: only coach so many people one on one to give 456 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: you agree. I used to see. I used to do 457 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: my Magnificence seven and then I stopped doing it because 458 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 1: the demands are just so high and I have to 459 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: you know, I want to over deliver always, and I 460 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 1: just not enough hours in the day. So now I 461 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: do too, sometimes three at a time max. But Paul 462 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: Tutor has been one of my clients for twenty four years. 463 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: So I four million dollars, maybe maybe it was more, 464 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 1: but he's but he's also made billions and billions of dollars. 465 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: I mean, several times along the way, I've said, damn, look, Paul, 466 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: we're such dear friends. I said, I don't need this 467 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: for you anymore. I know what you're gonna do when 468 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: you're gonna do it. You knew it too, And he 469 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: looks at me and says, are you kidding me? Your 470 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: my insurance policy? Just know when you're going to show up. 471 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: I do all this stuff. I knew I should have 472 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: dated him in college. Well, we're going to take a 473 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: quick break and when we come back, we're going to 474 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 1: talk to you about leadership and our fearless leader or 475 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. Is that the right way to describe 476 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: Donald Trump? These days, we'll hear from Tony Robbins about 477 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Right after this, we're back with Tony Robbins. 478 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: Who has I think you're the male brend of a Carl. 479 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: You've got such a raspy voice, is it? Is it 480 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: always so? Of course a lot of our listeners won't 481 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: remember brend of a Card did a tamp Ex commercial, 482 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: and I'm being compared to a tamp Ex commercial. I 483 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: feel really very raspy voice. I think it's important to 484 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 1: know the facts about tampons, to use them intelligently, and 485 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: to know what you're doing. Let me tell you why 486 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: I like plate Express. Yes, because I speak fifty hours? 487 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 1: Is that why it's so raspy? I actually went to 488 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: a expert at Harvard, who's worked with Aarri Smith and 489 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: all these guys. He's probably the best expert in the country. 490 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 1: I'll never get he has this. He asked me, how 491 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: off when I speak it? I told me. He thought 492 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,199 Speaker 1: I was making it up. He goes, No, one speaks 493 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: for twelve hours. No one will sit there with twelve hours. 494 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 1: I said, well, now I get ten thousand people at 495 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: the time to do it. So he'd been puts me 496 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: under the scope and he literally says, I got the 497 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: thing down my throat. I can't speak. He's like, no, no. 498 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: He leaves the room with the thing in my throat 499 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: trying to say something. He walks in with three doctors 500 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,719 Speaker 1: five minutes later and they all stare no, no, Well 501 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: that's when you know it's good. Yeah. So if idly 502 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: pull it out, Like what's the no, he goes, you're um. 503 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: You are what he called vocal cords are supposed to 504 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: be the thickness of your lips. Yours are thinner than 505 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: this piece of paper. He said, there's no way you 506 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: should be able to actually speak. It should be impossible 507 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: for you to speak. But he said, you've done something 508 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 1: that My forty years as a medical doctor expert in 509 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 1: this area would say as impossible. Science says, impossible. You've 510 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: wired your voice box, your false voice box, to your 511 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: normal voice box, and that's how you speak. He goes, 512 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: it's almost that you couldn't speak, and you like willed 513 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: yourself to speak, and somehow the cells connected and gradually 514 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: created this train that you now can speak. That's how 515 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: I talk to Do you ever not talk? I mean, 516 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: do you ever go for quiet periods? She says? Why 517 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: aren't you talking to me? What's wrong? You're one of 518 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:42,159 Speaker 1: those everybody else you're not talking to me? You probably 519 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: get sick of it. I'm sure you want to just 520 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 1: not like, want to let your voice rest. And someone 521 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: dore my wife, she's, I tease, are mercilessly? Mercilessly? No, 522 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 1: I I'd like to speak when there's something to speak about, 523 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: and when there's something to speak out. I'm not getting 524 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 1: up there to talk for fifty hours because I want 525 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: to talk for fifty hours. Because what I do is conditioning. Right. 526 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 1: You hear something, once you understand it, you here a 527 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: couple of times in different ways, you might be able 528 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: to play it. But if I get you were you're 529 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: wired to do it now. You get results. I mean 530 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: you get results by changing conditioning. You don't get results 531 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 1: by just getting a new insight. This was your second wife, 532 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: your current I was married for fourteen years before that. 533 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: I've been married eighteen years on this one. And and so, 534 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: what did you learn from your first marriage? Your partner. 535 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 1: No one tells you how to pick a partner. So 536 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: she was a great lady, but we had so little 537 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: in common. It was just chemistry. And then I fell 538 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: in love with her children. She'd been married twice before me. 539 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: I was her third husband, and she was thirteen years 540 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: my senior, twelve years my senior. So I was, if 541 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 1: you can imagine, twenty four and instantly had a seventeen 542 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: year old son overnight and eleven year old. Oh that's weird, 543 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: like seven years older than your stepson. He was the 544 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: Ashton Kutcher of his day. He's fifty and I'm fifty seven. Yeah, 545 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: to give an idea, So I grew up very quickly. Um, 546 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 1: but I didn't want to lose the kid's love. I 547 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: fell so in love with them. She's a good human being, 548 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: but you know, she'd be upset all the time that 549 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: I was stopping to talk to people or help people 550 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: much so. But what the beauty is I end up 551 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: with all my kids and my second youngest is my 552 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 1: partner in several of my financial businesses, you know. And 553 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: so it's a it's a blast at this stage of 554 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: my life that I got to experience all those stages simultaneously. 555 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: They made me grow up and they think increased my 556 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: ability to help other people too. Well, let's let's enough 557 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: about your marriage. Let's talk about Donald Trump. Can speaking 558 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: of things that weren't supposed to be possible, like her 559 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: vocal cords Trump. So, so, how well do you know 560 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 1: Donald Trump? Pretty well enough that he's called me at 561 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: various times. I gave him his first six speech, I know, 562 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 1: not recently, I gave him his first big speech. I 563 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: think you might call him, well, sure I can, but 564 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,199 Speaker 1: he's and he's just down the road for me. You 565 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: don't visit him if I want to get because I 566 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: live in Balm Beach most of the time. A good 567 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: person of time. But um, you know, he's a very 568 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 1: unique creature, as you well know. And I think that 569 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: he's been reinforced for what you and I might call 570 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: bad behave at least in communication style. And um and 571 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: he's now President Nited States, and those things are not 572 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 1: being reinforced. But I think half the country sent him 573 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 1: there because government is systemic. You take your time, you 574 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,360 Speaker 1: think everything through it as consequences. He's pragmatic. I want 575 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: to do this now, right now, and even if make 576 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 1: a mistake, then I'll correct the mistake and get it done. 577 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: But I'm not gonna take two years to do it. 578 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: So I think, is that pragmatic or impulsive? Well, you 579 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 1: can call it impulsive, but it's also pragmatic to look 580 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 1: for an answer now. Everyone has a specialty in their brains. 581 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: Some people are extremely empathetic, right. Empathetic people are always 582 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: like if you're in a meeting right now and we 583 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: say we're gonna do something, they're gonna, hey, wait a second, 584 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: that will make these people feel this way, and they're 585 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: always worried about that. Person is more pragmatic is like, 586 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: they're gonna feel that way, but if we don't do this, 587 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: it's gonna go under and everyone's gonna get hurt. That 588 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: is what we gotta do right now. The systemic person like, 589 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: slow down, let's think this through, let's evaluate this, let's 590 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 1: take our time, And they might take a couple of 591 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: years to do what the other person will do wrong 592 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: in the first week, but the wrong one was the 593 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 1: first week will get more done because they do it 594 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: more often, and if they correct, they do it more often. 595 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel correct enough or not. But 596 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 1: he clearly he's not empathetic. Let's put it that way. 597 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: I'm not as high as skill set. Thank you, last category. 598 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: The president of the last category sounds like Barack Obamas 599 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 1: exactly right, totally systemic. And when you're talking at Barack Obama, 600 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: he's thinking while he's talking to he's filtering every word. 601 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: I watched him, you know, get up and you have 602 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 1: a speech to first graders and he had to what 603 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: do you call it? Telepropers reading teleproperters the first graders like, 604 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: come on. But then you have this other guy who 605 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: just makes it up as he's standing there. So we've 606 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,959 Speaker 1: gone from one extreme. Yeah, that's what people do in relationship, right, 607 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 1: this didn't work. Let me throw my pendulum to the 608 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: other side, which also often doesn't work in some people's minds. 609 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: But I think, um, I had a good conversation with 610 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: President Clinton last weekend, but I had an even better 611 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: conversation related to this specifically, a couple of months ago 612 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: with George W. Bush, and I was asking him. I said, 613 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: you know, you never attacked Barack Obama. I really respect 614 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: that about you. And he goes, I'll tell you why. 615 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 1: Tony goes, I'm not president United States. The people have spoken. 616 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: I had my eight years, and whether I voted for 617 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: the person or not doesn't matter. They're my president. There, 618 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 1: you're president. We got to help them succeed. They don't 619 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: do it on their own. And he I said, but 620 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: what do you feel? He goes, well, you know, I 621 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 1: wanted my brother to win. He said, he obviously didn't. 622 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: But he goes this stuff that the world's over because 623 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: Trump is crazy and insane. He goes, it's so exaggerated, 624 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 1: and it's quite quite frankly infantile. He said, let's just 625 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 1: be honest. He said, I used to think this too. 626 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 1: When Nixon left office impeached. I thought he destroyed the presidency, 627 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: destroyed the reputation Americas, stroyed America. He goes, I was 628 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: dead wrong. He said that was an infantile emotional response. 629 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: Here's the truth. He said, the office is bigger than 630 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: the occupant. People so nervous trepidacious, scared out of their 631 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: mind because we as a culture constantly reinforce fear and 632 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: create tribalism. It's the news way in which we live. 633 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: Since social media plus today we can self fulfill you 634 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: can you you can just watch MSNBC all day long 635 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: or Fox all daylong and you live in a different 636 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: universe or Facebook and read fake news. So people today 637 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: don't want to be interrupted. I mean, in the financial industry, 638 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: it's one of the biggest mistakes that people It's called 639 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: confirmation bias. You know, you go get everybody confirm what 640 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: you believe and you go do that. Well, it's a 641 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: recipe for death. We're doing that here. How do we 642 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: how do we change that? You know? I mean, this 643 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: is something we've talked about frequently. And my friend Nicole says, 644 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,719 Speaker 1: people looking for affirmation, not information. And but you know, 645 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: and there was a piece in the New York Times 646 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: actually recently about how to get out of your bubble, 647 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: and people are trying to encourage people to overlap. But 648 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: I mean, how what's the solution to the first? You 649 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: go first, You got to see what the problem is. 650 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: I believe the problem. You can tell me if you 651 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: agree or disagree. Um. One of the problems clearly is 652 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: that we are not using technology. Technology is now using us. 653 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: Watch how people where people's level of impatience is today 654 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: the bam bam on their phone like this, it's not responding, 655 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: it's going to a satellite. Give it a minute. I mean, 656 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: my god, whether the hell is the matter with you? 657 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: And so you're used to in control every moment on 658 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: the web. So I think it's a combination of technology. 659 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: And we have tolerated this as a culture. You get 660 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: what you tolerate. As an individual, we tolerated, but how 661 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: do you how do you change it? And the only 662 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: way it's so far down line now. The only way 663 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: it changes is the way anything changes. Historically, we throw 664 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: our pendulums until we exhaust that, and sometimes that exhaustion 665 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: goes for a period of you know, a generation, ten 666 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: or fifteen or twenty years. If you think about the 667 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: winter seasons historically, I mean, if you grew up in 668 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: the nineteen thirties and forties, came of age at that time, 669 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: you live very differently. Became of age in the fifties, 670 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: then if he came to change in the sixties and seventies, 671 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: a totally different generation than the eighties and nineties two thousands. 672 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: So I personally believe, and I'm guessing no one knows 673 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: for sure. I think we're gonna throw our pendulum and 674 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna get exhausted this like we exhausted anything, and 675 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: will eventually come back. How long will that take? I 676 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: don't know. Will President Trump become a CEO who settles 677 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: down and is able to do that or not. You know, 678 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: we're six weeks into it. He's been reinforced for the 679 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: behavior he had his entire life, and he's only for 680 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: the first time having an interruption to that behavior. So 681 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: we'll see. Well, regarding President Trump, you said Donald doesn't 682 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: take coaching, he doesn't want coaching. I know a lot 683 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: of Republicans who are really nervous, scared, even alarmed by 684 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: some of the actions he's taken as president. The fact 685 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: that he doesn't know what he doesn't know, and that 686 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: he has these tweet storms that you know, five thirty 687 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: in the morning making all these accusations that have no 688 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: merit because he's been reading bright Bart News come on. 689 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: And so I think the larger question is can he 690 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: learn from his mistakes and get bigger and better, or 691 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: he's a smarter person. You might give him credit for it. 692 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: He's well trained to be the way he is because 693 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: he's been rewarded so often. But without the rewards, he's 694 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 1: got the ability to learn. The question is will he 695 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: And I can't answer that question for you, No one can. 696 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: But I think, um, the more we spend time on 697 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 1: his tweets uh and give it so much attention, you 698 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: just reinforce the behavior. He's going to keep doing it. 699 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: The more put your fist up. If I go like this, 700 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: what are you doing? Why are you put him back? 701 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 1: I didn't tell you to push back. Well, otherwise you're 702 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: gonna break my arm. He's a very strong guy. Actually, 703 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: let let it go. You'll see it. It's not going 704 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: to break your arm. More more you push on somebody, 705 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: I just don't put his fist out. And I pushed 706 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: on it like with my fist, and he's pushing harder 707 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 1: and harder. I didn't tell him to push I'm still 708 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: across the table from Superman here, and it's very hard 709 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: not to push back a little bit. But think about that. 710 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: It's very hard for him not push back, very hard 711 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: for the media not to push back. But you're more 712 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: optimistic than many people. You think that he can grow 713 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: and get better. But you've said that he doesn't take 714 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: training or coaching at this stage. He's not, but it 715 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 1: doesn't mean he won't. He's got four years and we're 716 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: all going to be with him four years, where you 717 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: like him or not. So do you really want to 718 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: spend the rest of your life bitching, complaining, whining about 719 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: somebody's style of communicating? Um, you know, we have three 720 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: branches of government. They balance each other out. He's gonna 721 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: pass some things you don't like. That's called life. He's 722 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 1: gonna not pass some things he wants to that you 723 00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: might like. That's life. You know, we're we're living in 724 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: a world where there's so much whining. It's just like, 725 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: how about, let's where the issues are real, let's deal 726 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: with them. But why not? Why is there got to 727 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: be personal? It used to be in Congress when Clinton 728 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: was in office, guys would fight like hell on the 729 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: floor and they go have a beer together. Now the 730 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: problem is if you talk to it aside, you're evil, 731 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: you're immoral. This is absurd, This is childlike behavior. But 732 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: that's expanded to the nation as a whole. And so. 733 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: But but no, I mean not just on Capitol Hill. 734 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: And we often heard stories of Reagan and Tip O'Neill 735 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: having a drink together in the Oval office and fighting 736 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: like hell in the halls of Congress. But what do 737 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: you do about such a divided nation? I know this 738 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: is the top topic a on so many shows, and 739 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: I think around so many dinner tables all over the country. 740 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: But these two Americas that are so at each other's 741 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 1: throats seven, how how do we come together? I mean, 742 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: I know it's not going to be Kumbaya, But at 743 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: the same time, how do we dissipate this anger and 744 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: vitriol that's just pulsing true society today? Well, it starts 745 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: with the leaders and the leaders of both parties, That's 746 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. That's the challenge. But eventually we burn out. Eventually, 747 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: if you look at history, whatever it is, will it 748 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: be anger? You get tired of being anger? It sades, 749 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: you get tired of me sadness I just have. I'm 750 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 1: just saying, why don't we get tired of it? Now? 751 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 1: Start to focus. Let's focus on what we can do 752 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,399 Speaker 1: instead of we can't. What's the secret to financial well being? 753 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 1: If not predicting the future. The secret is taking control 754 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,280 Speaker 1: of what you can control. There's many things you can't 755 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: and it's time to surrender to that and focus on 756 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: what you can do. Otherwise you're just everybody just whining, 757 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: and it's like, what is it doing? Is it making 758 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 1: anything better? Is it changing it all? No, you're just 759 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,359 Speaker 1: getting the habit of being piste off all the time 760 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: or fearful all the time, And a decision made from 761 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: fear or a decision made from anger is almost always 762 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: the wrong decision. If you were coaching President Trump today, 763 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: what would you tell him Your communication style is getting 764 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 1: in the way of your substance. There's actually substance to 765 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: what he's doing in many cases that some people agree. 766 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 1: I mean, if you were to say, look in Syria, 767 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: we cannot vet that these people are who they say 768 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 1: they are, so in these cases until we can vet, 769 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 1: we're going to do this for them, it would be 770 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: a different case. But when you talk about Muslims as 771 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: if it's a religion that's wrong, um, then the style 772 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: of communication gets ahold of it anyding. And the second 773 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 1: thing is calling people idiots or going on the internet 774 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: at three in the morning and attacking everybody who has 775 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: a different point of view makes it impossible to truly 776 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: govern unless you in control of everything. And why do 777 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: you think he does that word? It's fitted so much 778 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 1: time on him, and why he does it. He doesn't 779 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 1: because he's been conditioned to do it his whole life. 780 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: He's a real estate guy that worked with very wealthy people. 781 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: He figured a formula, he used debt, he maximized it 782 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 1: and almost went bankrupt and then really scored in a 783 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,319 Speaker 1: large scale And no matter what he said or did, 784 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: he got reinforced, including with a TV show for twelve years. 785 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 1: So he's been reinforced. Until new reinforcement happens, you won't 786 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: see a change. That's how humans work. I want to 787 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: ask you about leadership, you know, because I think some Americans, 788 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: I would say a lot of them Americans Field there's 789 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: a real dearth of leadership in this country, I would agree. Unfortunately, 790 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,720 Speaker 1: Why why do you think it's so hard to find 791 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: people that we trust and believe in and want to 792 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 1: be in charge? Well, think about it today. If you 793 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:18,760 Speaker 1: and I live in in the world before the Internet, 794 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: and I'm not suggesting to go back of the stupidest 795 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: thing in the world. Maybe maybe in the moment, but 796 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: if you really think about it before, then if you 797 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 1: want to attack me, you're going to pay a consequence. 798 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: You say something about verbally, you do something and it 799 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: used to be in the media and you can be sued. 800 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 1: Today with the Internet, we all want to be significant. 801 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 1: There's only two ways to be significant. Take big risks 802 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: and try to achieve things, and you could fail, and 803 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,399 Speaker 1: if you fail, you feel like you're worthless. Or tear 804 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 1: everybody else down. Build the tallest building, or tear everybody 805 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 1: else down. Well, it's not hard to figure out what 806 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 1: the majority of people do. There's no downside of tearing 807 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 1: other people down. To the web, there's no consequence. So 808 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: our web behaviors and our technology conditioning has changed our 809 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 1: culture to where we're no longer kind. I mean, obviously 810 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: there are plenty of kind people, and there are kind communities. 811 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: But if you asked is the Internet a kind place? 812 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,800 Speaker 1: The answer is what would you say? Absolutely not? Having 813 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 1: said that, most of my friends would never ever right 814 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: the kind of garbage that comes my way. I don't know, Brian, 815 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 1: if you get that, but you know that that comes 816 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: the way of people who maybe disagree with them or 817 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: who are public figures. So yes, I don't also grew 818 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: up in a different generation, right, my daughters would never 819 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: do that. I agree that you're you've you're because you 820 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 1: brought a different generation. You have different values, right, look 821 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,760 Speaker 1: at it. You're a race, so it's a value system. 822 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 1: But right now that you can talk about values all 823 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 1: you want. But then people look at this phone a 824 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty times a day, that's the average, hundred 825 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 1: fifty times a day at your outdoor brain, and whenever 826 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 1: you're looking there, they're getting a dopamine hit some times. 827 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 1: All this cool new things, so they're wired to keep 828 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: doing this and guess what, Like any other addiction, they're 829 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: here all the time. This world I can control you know, 830 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 1: like me, I'll unfriend you, I'll let it go. We 831 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 1: have created a selfish society where it's all about me, 832 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,359 Speaker 1: and it's really not about me. It's about the way 833 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 1: I can frame myself with filters and pictures. You can 834 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: see people getting depressed all the studies on Facebook now, 835 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 1: and it's because they're not comparing their life to other people. 836 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 1: They're comparing life to other people's fake lives. Right, So 837 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 1: I sound old talking to all this crap. Now I 838 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: I agree with you. Well, I'm older than you are. 839 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: I mean, what are practical things. The practical things that 840 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: we have to do is we've got to train people 841 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: to enter a world where they live at their best 842 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 1: and they're reinforced for it. Let me look, let's be honest. 843 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 1: All human beings have a two million year old brain, 844 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 1: and that brain is not designed to make you happy. 845 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: That brain is designed to make you survive. So it's 846 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,320 Speaker 1: a survival software. So what is it looking for anything 847 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: that could hurt me? Well, there's not a saber tooth 848 00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: tiger for you to fight or flight or freeze and 849 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: hopefully not spot you. Now we place that with what 850 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 1: are people thinking about me? As if it's life and 851 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,240 Speaker 1: death or do I have enough money? And let's be honest. 852 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: In this country, if you are in poverty and you know, 853 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 1: I care, I need a hundred million people a year. 854 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:12,799 Speaker 1: I don't wan anybody in poverty. But if you're in 855 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 1: part of the United States, you're not. Is the biggest 856 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 1: bullshit on the planet. You're the one percent of the 857 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 1: planet the planet. Three quarters of the planet lives on 858 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: two dollars and fifty cents a day. Nine dollars a year. 859 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,439 Speaker 1: So we're living in a society where we've lost track. 860 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: It's gonna balance? Will it balance as fast as you? 861 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 1: And I want? No? My job is to educate you. 862 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 1: I was there. I had ten thousand people in San 863 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: Francisco and San Jose the day after the election. San Francisco, 864 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:42,799 Speaker 1: so you know what that was. They were depressed, and 865 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: I just I went after him and I said, come on, 866 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: grow up. What the hell are you doing If you 867 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,360 Speaker 1: can't take disappointment, and disappointment drives you into this place, 868 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 1: how are you gonna deal with your own life? You're 869 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 1: focused on Trump because you're not mastering your own life. 870 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: But I think there are people who are upset about 871 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:01,319 Speaker 1: Trump for pretty selfless reasons. Actually, people whose taxes are 872 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: going to be cut by Trump, people who are personally 873 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: going to benefit from Trump. Have said, I don't like 874 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 1: the example he sets from my children, the cut he's 875 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 1: going to make. Let's just agree on that. I agree 876 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: with it, So what are you going to do about it? Well, 877 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: that's that's the right, but right so I answer my question, 878 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do about it? I don't have 879 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,359 Speaker 1: an answer that question. Continuing to complain about it isn't 880 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: changing a thing. We can continue to make ourselves miserable 881 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 1: if you like to continue for now, I'd rather do this. 882 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:34,760 Speaker 1: I'd rather say argue with the reality is stupid. Sometimes 883 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 1: reality does not reward what you want, So then what 884 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: should you do? Focus on what you can do and 885 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 1: what you can control, because otherwise you're just going to 886 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: be upsettled. But now I agree, and I think that 887 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people I don't know. Sometimes I feel 888 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:47,919 Speaker 1: like I get too wrapped up in that. I don't 889 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,240 Speaker 1: think it's whining for journalists to point out these important 890 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:56,360 Speaker 1: issues to the president, but to try when they're no, 891 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,920 Speaker 1: that's terrible and it's very unprofessional. And journalists shouldn't be 892 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,879 Speaker 1: biased in that way. And I think we're that well. 893 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 1: Not all of them are. A journalist across the table 894 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 1: from me is not, I would argue. But today our 895 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: journalists today pure reporters as they once were. Is that 896 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,959 Speaker 1: pure journalism? Many of them are? I do. I think, 897 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 1: by and large, journalists tend to be more progressive and 898 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 1: and and and and and care about progressive issues more. 899 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 1: I think there's Yeah. I went to college and they 900 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 1: had a professor who was liberal, not conservative, because that's 901 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 1: who goes and teaches, and so we keep fulfilling that 902 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: that aspect. Personally, I think and I'm not for the 903 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 1: agenda President Trump, but I personally think it starts even 904 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 1: at the colleges. We need to have more diversity in 905 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 1: these colleges. When you look at Berkeley, which is supposed 906 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: to be the home of free speech, and I don't 907 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 1: even see it. I just have the pictures today. But 908 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: I remember that idiot from bright Bart I can't think 909 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 1: of his name. I don't support him. But to blow 910 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: shut up, to create fires, to punch people in the 911 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: face so that someone can't speak, I don't know how 912 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 1: to see that group of people that supposedly started the 913 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: free speech movement? Are you not embarrassed by that? I'm embarrassed. 914 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how you call yourself a liberal and 915 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 1: opposed the First Amendment and say I'm not. I'm not 916 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 1: going to even expose myself to ideas with which I disagree. 917 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 1: But speaking of powerful ideas, before we let you go, 918 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: how is that for an awkward segue? We should talk 919 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,479 Speaker 1: about what I'm trying to talking about. How many books 920 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 1: have you written? Tony? What is this now? Five? I 921 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 1: guess six. I guess, Wow, good, you're You're a busy guy. 922 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: So this one is unshakable, your financial freedom playbook. And 923 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 1: this is the result of all your conversations with all 924 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 1: these financial experts, well not just experts, but every one 925 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 1: of them was a self made millionaire. And then I 926 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: went Nobel Prize winner that I just brought them people 927 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: the best on earth. But the reason about this book 928 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 1: is I actually had I do an annual event where 929 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: I bring in, you know, six self made billionaires, some 930 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: of the best financial people in the world, and I 931 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: have them work with my biggest donors, you know, for 932 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: feeding people. And I a year ago I had the 933 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 1: form a FED chair, Alan Greenspan on nineteen years most 934 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 1: powerful man in finance for presidents, right, I guess spent 935 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 1: five hours and then three hours picking his brain, which 936 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 1: is what I do best. I dig in, find it 937 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: his psychology and his psyche and how things have shifted. 938 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: And then two hours in one of the audience and 939 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: the last thing we talked about negative interest rates and 940 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: you know, I've never seen this in five thousand years 941 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,319 Speaker 1: of banking history, and what the FEDS are doing, and 942 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 1: this really passionate conversation. So I said, okay, you're back, 943 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: made of head fed today you're the chairman of the 944 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 1: Fed of Again, what's the first thing you do? And 945 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: the whole room leaned into here and he paused, and 946 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,720 Speaker 1: he paused, and he leaned in and he went resigned. 947 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 1: I would resign. Was like when the FED chair says 948 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:40,919 Speaker 1: he resigned. You know we're in trouble. So look, we're 949 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: eight years into this bull market. It's the second largest 950 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:47,280 Speaker 1: one in history. It doesn't take a genius to figure 951 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 1: out there's gonna be a crash. It's not negative. It's 952 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: just the fact it always has been. It's historic. But 953 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: what I wanted to do is I wanted three people 954 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 1: of the fear and show him how to utilize this, 955 00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 1: both protect themselves and take advantage. Because if you're a 956 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 1: baby boomer and you started too late. I know it's counterintuitive, 957 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 1: but the next crash is your chance, the leap fraud 958 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: from where you are financially to where you want to be. 959 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 1: If you're a millennial and you've got all this you know, debt, 960 00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:14,239 Speaker 1: God forbid from you know, college education, you've got you 961 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 1: think you'll never get out of it. The crash is 962 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 1: the leveler. It's like if I told you your favorite 963 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 1: car was I don't know Ferrari, and you said to me, 964 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:23,920 Speaker 1: I want a Ferrari, and I said, I know a 965 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: place you get them fifty percent off, you'll be out 966 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 1: of your mind. But when the stock market goes fifty off, 967 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:30,800 Speaker 1: people freak out. People have the opposite instinct, which is 968 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:36,359 Speaker 1: to buy high and sell low. Buffett, what you tell 969 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 1: everybody during that time, this is the greatest opportunity of 970 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 1: your life by anything. You can be like others are fearful, 971 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: and fearful when you got it absolutely so what what 972 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 1: people don't know? The reason they're not in the market 973 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 1: A they think they have no money, And so I 974 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 1: show them what to do and how to actually just 975 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: take a small percentage and grow it because you just 976 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 1: don't realize what compounding can do, you know. I give 977 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 1: an example in the Book of a young Man based 978 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 1: on a friend. Mind's father convinced him at nineteen that 979 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: he's gonna take three dollars a month and say but, 980 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,320 Speaker 1: which sounds like a lot. But once you automated, you 981 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 1: don't even think about it just happens. You don't see it, 982 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,239 Speaker 1: And he did it just till he was twenty nine, right, 983 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 1: so nine years. Total amount of money in was like 984 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 1: four thousand years, so it's like thirty five thousand dollars 985 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: he left it in the market, and the market over 986 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,280 Speaker 1: the last thirty years is ground ten point to five. 987 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 1: But I showed you even if it only grown at 988 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 1: eight percent even less, he ends up taking that thirty 989 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 1: five tho dollars, never putting another diamond. At sixty five, 990 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,799 Speaker 1: he's got just under a million dollars. His bet that 991 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:34,399 Speaker 1: it doesn't make a lot of money to be wealthy. 992 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 1: It takes time and and consistency. His best friend gets 993 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:41,320 Speaker 1: the idea when he finishes to start at twenty nine, 994 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 1: and he invests three dollars a month his entire life 995 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: to sixty five, and he never catches up because it's 996 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: time that gives you the advantage. You don't need a 997 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 1: lot of money. How many great athletes, how many great 998 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: movie stars, actresses? Actors? Have you seen that made more 999 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 1: money than god? And now they're totally broke. I mean, 1000 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:00,799 Speaker 1: you look at fifty cent he know he got a 1001 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 1: hundred million dollar tip on vitamin water. You made I 1002 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:06,840 Speaker 1: think it was four or million bucks if I remember correctly, 1003 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:11,800 Speaker 1: and he's bankrupt. He bought Tyson's home and Tyson went bankrupt. 1004 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,800 Speaker 1: Who made a half a billion dollars right now? I 1005 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 1: don't know if it's true, but I read the other 1006 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:19,919 Speaker 1: day that what's pirates scabbean Johnny Depp he made three 1007 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: quarters of a billion dollars seven or fifty million dollars, 1008 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 1: and they're talking about him going bankrupt right now because 1009 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 1: he spent thirty thousand a month on wine and he 1010 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,320 Speaker 1: spent three million dollars. Take Hunter Thompson burned his body 1011 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 1: and blow it in a cannon into space. It's hard 1012 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,840 Speaker 1: to live a nice lifestyle and three quarters of a 1013 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 1: billion dollars and you've got to economize unless you make 1014 00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:42,240 Speaker 1: money your slave. You're the slave to money. And unless 1015 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 1: you learn how to make money while you're sleep, it's 1016 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: not gonna happen. And every American can do. And it's 1017 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,759 Speaker 1: not a full time job. It requires you to get 1018 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:50,360 Speaker 1: in the game. But you've got to know what the 1019 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 1: rules are so you don't get taken advantage of because truthfully, uh, 1020 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,880 Speaker 1: the level of the seat that happens in this industry 1021 00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 1: is greater than almost any industry in the world because 1022 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:02,280 Speaker 1: there just isn't it's parents e and people use language. 1023 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 1: It makes people feel like they don't know what they're doing, 1024 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 1: and so they just give up. And then they beat 1025 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 1: you to death with fees you don't even know you're paying. 1026 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 1: So this is this book is really for everyone, not 1027 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 1: for wealthy people anybody. Now, this is a book designed 1028 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 1: to show you how you can leap frog where you 1029 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 1: are where you want to be, and to make sure 1030 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:20,760 Speaker 1: a you're protected during the next time, but more importantly, 1031 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 1: that you take advantage of what the next time will 1032 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: provide for you. I mean, I'll give you an example. 1033 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:28,320 Speaker 1: Why are people afraid you in the market's gonna crash? Well, 1034 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 1: every day you hear another we broke another record, you 1035 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 1: know here at the dolls up another one. Well, if 1036 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 1: you look over the history of the stock market, on average, 1037 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: we break we have a new record once a month. 1038 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 1: Now sometimes that happens seven in a week, but that's 1039 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 1: the average that we've had over time. But here's what's 1040 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 1: really interesting. Every year we have a correction. It's like, 1041 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,319 Speaker 1: if you're gonna be stressed and you're forty years old 1042 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 1: and you're gonna live to eighty five, you're gonna have 1043 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:52,759 Speaker 1: forty five more corrections to go through. You're gonna be 1044 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,320 Speaker 1: stressed the rest of your freaking life. Remember last January, 1045 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,720 Speaker 1: the worst January in history, two point two trillion dollars 1046 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 1: melted down. But where we end up year record breaking 1047 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 1: eighty percent of those corrections, and a correction for those 1048 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 1: listening is anytime you drop more than ten percent up 1049 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,320 Speaker 1: to twenty from where the peak was, that's called a correction. 1050 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 1: Eighty percent of them don't become a crash. They don't 1051 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 1: become that melt down that everybody's afraid of at the 1052 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,720 Speaker 1: deepest level. And so you literally you you see fourteen 1053 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,399 Speaker 1: percent dropout, and it bounces right back unless you sell. 1054 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,839 Speaker 1: I always tell people the market never took a dime 1055 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 1: from anyone you did. Now watch this. What about those 1056 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: big bear markets? They last a year on average, They 1057 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 1: cost us an average of thirty three if you sell, 1058 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: if you don't sell, and cost you anything. And here's 1059 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 1: what people have to know. Every single bear market, every 1060 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 1: crash in the history of the the United States for two 1061 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:44,840 Speaker 1: centuries plus, has been followed by a bull market that 1062 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 1: goes crazy. If you remember two thousand and eight, we 1063 00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 1: lost you know, from peak to trough briefly, it was 1064 00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,640 Speaker 1: really around thirty five for most people, but we went 1065 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 1: we made six starting on March nine. Coming up a 1066 00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:57,879 Speaker 1: few days from now is the anniversary for the next 1067 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 1: twelve months. I can show that to you every time 1068 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 1: in history of the United States. That's why Warren Buffett says, 1069 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 1: you don't want to bet against the United States the 1070 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:06,919 Speaker 1: last two centuries. The dumbest bet you could possibly make. 1071 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 1: You want to be in the market, not sell, And 1072 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 1: when the market crashes, you want to buy things for 1073 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,359 Speaker 1: a discount. Well, in your message, which is a very 1074 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 1: powerful one and one that I think a lot of 1075 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: people need to hear, is you can't market time. You 1076 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 1: brought to bear a great stat in the book about 1077 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 1: how most of your gains happened during these days. I forget, 1078 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:26,879 Speaker 1: It's like a dozen days the course of the year. 1079 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:28,719 Speaker 1: Get the hot button. Check this out. So people are 1080 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: trying to time the market. Oh my god, the market's 1081 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:32,319 Speaker 1: too high. How long have you been hearing that? For 1082 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: eight years? The market's got up two How have we 1083 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 1: heard that since since Trump got in office? We're up 1084 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,959 Speaker 1: right now? Trump bump. But he isn't gonna correct. Of course, 1085 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 1: it's gonna correct. It's gonna happen. But here's what you 1086 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 1: gotta know. Warren Buffett said to me, Tony, those guys 1087 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:50,439 Speaker 1: on CNBC, those market forecasters, they're only there, he said, 1088 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 1: to make fortune tellers look good because no one can 1089 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,399 Speaker 1: predict the market. But here's what you can predict. There's 1090 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 1: a study done over the last twenty years by both 1091 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:03,279 Speaker 1: JP Morgan and by Charles Swamp. They did independently. What 1092 00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 1: they found is, over thirty years we've done ten point 1093 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,400 Speaker 1: to eight percent, which is amazing. Over the last twenty 1094 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 1: years we've done eight point two percent. But if you 1095 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 1: missed just ten of the best training days in twenty years, now, 1096 00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,000 Speaker 1: what are your chances of knowing which days those are 1097 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 1: going to be? So you're out because you're thinking is overvalued, 1098 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,120 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be, you're scared. If you missed 1099 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 1: the top training ten trading days, that's all in twenty years, 1100 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 1: you moved from having an eight percent return where you're 1101 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: doubling your money every nine years and get wealthy. Of 1102 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: doing that, it drops down to four and a half percent. 1103 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 1: Almost in a half. You've missed the top twenty days, 1104 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 1: you will only make two percent. You might as well 1105 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:38,439 Speaker 1: have been in bonds. And if you missed the top 1106 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 1: thirty days one and a half days for twenty years, 1107 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:43,479 Speaker 1: that's all one half days each year for twenty years, 1108 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 1: you lose money. See, the most dangerous thing is not 1109 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,440 Speaker 1: getting the market. You've got to be in the market 1110 00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 1: because it's given the highest rates of return for the 1111 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 1: last two centuries. It has the most volatility, which is 1112 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 1: why you have to have diversification, like I show you. 1113 00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,520 Speaker 1: But it is the opportunity of your lifetime to be 1114 00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 1: in there and be unlike other people and be unshakable. 1115 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 1: All right, before we go, I feel like watching Tony. 1116 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 1: He's got so much energy. Do you drink a lot 1117 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:13,160 Speaker 1: of coffee. I don't drink any coffee. You imagine me 1118 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:16,120 Speaker 1: one you would be scary, really so. But you do 1119 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 1: have some kind of funky personal routine. You you you you. 1120 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 1: You jump into this cold pool every morning when you're 1121 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,200 Speaker 1: at one of your homes plural, that's fifty seven degrees 1122 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 1: the water that um it stimulates. It's done all over 1123 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 1: the world, but especially in the northern countries to go 1124 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,720 Speaker 1: hot cold stimulate the limp system. The blood flow cleans 1125 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,160 Speaker 1: your system out. But I also do it for another reason. 1126 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 1: Which is you know, most people don't do what they 1127 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 1: need to do. They know what they should do, but 1128 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 1: they don't do it. You know, you know what to do, 1129 00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:50,560 Speaker 1: but they don't do what they know. Right. So when 1130 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:52,400 Speaker 1: I did early on, as I said, I want to 1131 00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 1: train my brain that when I say we're doing this, 1132 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 1: I'm not negotiating with myself. Well do it tomorrow. So 1133 00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 1: I get in every day for one reason and to 1134 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 1: teach my brain. When I say we do it, we 1135 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 1: do it, and now it does. If I want to 1136 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,080 Speaker 1: go make the run, I want to do the business thing. 1137 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: There's no hesitancy in me. There's no negotiation within myself 1138 00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 1: and that has enormous power. If you want to build 1139 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:14,400 Speaker 1: things and create things and have an impact with people. 1140 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,239 Speaker 1: You also do breathing exercises. I do. I start every 1141 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 1: day with my first ten minutes. Is a form of meditation, 1142 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:22,400 Speaker 1: sort of meditation. Like here's what I do. I do 1143 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,240 Speaker 1: a radical change in my body because changing your breathing 1144 00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 1: changes the way the brain works. If you study you 1145 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 1: know yoga, various esoteric sciences. The breath is like the 1146 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,759 Speaker 1: string on a kite. The kite is your brain. If 1147 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:37,360 Speaker 1: you change the breath, you change how the brain becomes engaged. 1148 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,239 Speaker 1: So I do this radical explosive breathing. I do three 1149 00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 1: sets of thirty, and that changes my stake of it. 1150 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 1: I hear what radical explosive breathing sounds like a little 1151 00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: louder than that, harder than that. And I do thirty 1152 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,399 Speaker 1: of them? Right, I do thirty paws, thirty pause. Then 1153 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 1: I spend ten minutes, and I do three minutes where 1154 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,440 Speaker 1: all I focus on our three things. I'm grateful for you. 1155 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 1: Now why it sounds man? Be pan be gratitude. Who cares? 1156 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,040 Speaker 1: Two emotions that screw us up? And you see them 1157 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 1: in our society right now are anger and fear. They'll 1158 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:07,480 Speaker 1: screw up your business, they'll screw up your intimate relationship, 1159 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,880 Speaker 1: they'll screw up your health. And the antidote is gratitude. 1160 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 1: It can't be grateful and angry simultaneously. It's impossible. So 1161 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:16,960 Speaker 1: if you cultivate that gratitude, there's no anger there. You 1162 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:21,799 Speaker 1: can't be fearful and grateful simultaneously. So by taking three 1163 00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:24,239 Speaker 1: minutes to start every day and bringing that up in 1164 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,520 Speaker 1: my nervous system with real stuff, not positive thinking, I'm 1165 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:29,880 Speaker 1: so happy and making it up a bunch of affirmations. 1166 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 1: I think about real situations and I make one really simple, 1167 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:36,120 Speaker 1: like the wind on my face, my child smile, Because 1168 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,760 Speaker 1: if you only train yourself to respond to big things, 1169 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:40,239 Speaker 1: then you don't enjoy life. It's kind of like the 1170 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: astronauts that went to the moon came back. What do 1171 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:43,520 Speaker 1: you do when your thirty five you went to the moon, 1172 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 1: you took the presidence and the taper time, you know, 1173 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:47,359 Speaker 1: the ticker tape parade? What the hell do you do now? 1174 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,759 Speaker 1: And most of them got addicted to drugs and alcohol 1175 00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:52,160 Speaker 1: because they found adventure only in a smile. They didn't 1176 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 1: find it and excuse me, I'm going to the moon 1177 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 1: versus a smile. So I do three minutes and I 1178 00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 1: focus on it and I feel it like I'm there, 1179 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 1: and it makes my nervous system go. Then I do 1180 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:03,719 Speaker 1: three minutes of prayer and kind of blessings if you 1181 00:54:03,719 --> 00:54:07,520 Speaker 1: would to my children, my family, my coworkers, my associates 1182 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:09,759 Speaker 1: and people I meet on the street. And then my 1183 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:15,399 Speaker 1: last tomorrow I promise I will, But then my last 1184 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,400 Speaker 1: three minutes is kind of my three to three to 1185 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:20,080 Speaker 1: five to thrive, I think of three things that I 1186 00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 1: really want to accomplished that matter to me, and I 1187 00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:23,920 Speaker 1: see it and feel it is done and kind of 1188 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,400 Speaker 1: celebrate it. And what that does is it sets up 1189 00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 1: your brain where you're grateful instead of reactionary. You're loving 1190 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,360 Speaker 1: to the people around you and yourself and bussing side 1191 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:35,840 Speaker 1: and you're clear what is you really want to make happen, 1192 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: and you're certain it's going to happen. And it takes 1193 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:40,120 Speaker 1: ten minutes, and honestly, I'll usually go fifteen or twenty 1194 00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:42,440 Speaker 1: because it feels so good. But there's no excuse not 1195 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:43,759 Speaker 1: to do it, because you know, if you don't have 1196 00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 1: ten minutes, you've got a life. And so that's what 1197 00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:48,240 Speaker 1: I do. That and my jumping in that freezing water 1198 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 1: are my Yeah, no, I I use I lymphasize. I 1199 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:56,239 Speaker 1: use a rebounder. Yeah, it moves your lymp the limp. 1200 00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: You know, the heart and the blood is moved by 1201 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,160 Speaker 1: the heart, but the lymph has very little that can 1202 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:04,280 Speaker 1: move it around other than strong explosive breath, strong breathing 1203 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,319 Speaker 1: and movement exercise. So the length is critical. It's the 1204 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,719 Speaker 1: detoxication system your body. So bouncing out a rebound or 1205 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:11,799 Speaker 1: allows you to move the limp, but it doesn't when 1206 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:13,440 Speaker 1: you hit the ground, you don't have the impact. That's 1207 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 1: part of them. I don't know about you, Brian, but 1208 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:17,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to do those three things tomorrow. And I 1209 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:21,759 Speaker 1: don't have a trampoline, but see if not going to 1210 00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:26,359 Speaker 1: do that either. But the people you're grateful, the gratitude thing, 1211 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 1: which my husband says I should do more, and the 1212 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 1: prayers and then the intentions. Yeah, the three things you're 1213 00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 1: committed to, right, but seeing it as done failures done. 1214 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 1: It's really simplistic, but when you do it every day, 1215 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,719 Speaker 1: it reinforces that. You also just got to think about 1216 00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:45,759 Speaker 1: we all do what we've trained our nervous system to do. 1217 00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:47,600 Speaker 1: If you bitch all the time, you're gonna bitch all 1218 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 1: the time. If you're grateful the time, you're grateful a time, 1219 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 1: if you're we all know people that are funny no 1220 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 1: matter what happens, right, you know, and how do they 1221 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:55,319 Speaker 1: do it? They wired themselves to do it. So why 1222 00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 1: not wire yourself for higher emotional states that will affect 1223 00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:02,239 Speaker 1: your family and your businesses and your coworkers and associates 1224 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: as opposed to just showing up and hoping you feel 1225 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:07,320 Speaker 1: good with an environment that if you turn on anything. 1226 00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 1: If this thing's following you, you're probably gonna be unhappy 1227 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 1: because all I gotta do is open us up and 1228 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,000 Speaker 1: there'll be twenty things about Trump and twenty things about 1229 00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 1: the record show. He is holding his iPhone. I feel 1230 00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:20,440 Speaker 1: like I should do of what Tony Robbins does. I 1231 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,960 Speaker 1: will be a hugely successful person. That's for damn. I mean, 1232 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: you're amazing. Really, you guys are sweet. Now, we all 1233 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:28,319 Speaker 1: we all have our gifts, and I'm just clear what 1234 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,439 Speaker 1: my mission is. I think you're clear about yours.
