1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:17,320 Hey guys, welcome back to the homework assignment podcast where it is our assignment to find 2 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,200 the balance between home life and work life. 3 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:21,840 I'm your host RJ Patino. 4 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:27,440 I've been thinking a lot about this first topic of discussion. 5 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:28,980 Our first video is the introduction. 6 00:00:28,980 --> 00:00:31,680 If you haven't seen that, please go back, review it. 7 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:37,480 It definitely gives you a good insight onto who I am, what we've built here, at Elder 8 00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:46,080 Contracting and a little background on me and my wife's story and how we came to really 9 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:51,360 build this company and how we built our home life and are currently building both those 10 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,560 things because it's an ongoing process. 11 00:00:54,560 --> 00:01:00,240 And interestingly enough, I got a phone call today from a friend of mine out in Utah who's 12 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:05,360 also working on building a business out there. 13 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,520 And he had a couple questions for me. 14 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,040 He was talking about how to find new work and trying to figure out what his next move 15 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,160 was going to be in his company. 16 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:19,600 And we talked about a lot of different topics and there are so many topics to cover when 17 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,080 it comes to building a business. 18 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:28,280 And what we have everything we talked about what I really wanted to focus on today was 19 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,920 the fact of personal development. 20 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:39,200 I feel like that is one of the first steps that you need to take in building a company. 21 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:45,360 This is a crucial, crucial thing that you need to be constantly developing, constantly 22 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:46,680 working on. 23 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,580 And by doing that, you're also going to better your business. 24 00:01:50,580 --> 00:01:52,800 So what is personal development? 25 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,840 There's a lot of books, there's a lot of teachers. 26 00:01:54,840 --> 00:02:04,680 If you listen to any podcast on any business building or even home life, society as a whole, 27 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:10,620 a lot of times these people talk about this personal development topic and it comes down 28 00:02:10,620 --> 00:02:17,560 to your spiritual, your emotional, your mentality, your attitude, the way you feel on a daily 29 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,560 basis. 30 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:24,080 So I just want to go over a few things that have really helped me in my journey to build 31 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:30,000 a successful company and to be a good husband and a good father and a good friend, brother, 32 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,720 etc. to all those around me. 33 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:40,000 I've read quite a few books and there are a lot of great people who teach a lot of things. 34 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,720 And one of the things I want to focus on is personal fitness or health and fitness. 35 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:52,600 I feel like this is a really important thing, not just if you are running a business, but 36 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,620 just to feel good about yourself in general and to have a good attitude. 37 00:02:56,620 --> 00:02:58,320 What are some things that we know about working out? 38 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:03,600 Well, when you go to the gym in the morning, obviously, or at all, and you go consistently, 39 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,280 you're going to have more energy, you're going to feel better about yourself. 40 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:12,800 You're going to be able to have a clearer thinking throughout the day, a more mental 41 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,120 clarity throughout the day. 42 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,040 There's so many benefits and we could pull up statistics all day long on this. 43 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:24,600 But what it really comes down to is that once you start actually exercising and eating healthy 44 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:30,240 and taking care of your body, there's a few important things that begin to transpire. 45 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,440 Number one is your energy level. 46 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:39,400 So when it comes to being a parent or if you work within a company or trying to build a 47 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,560 company, all these things we do on a daily basis takes energy. 48 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,280 And that is why we need to sleep at nighttime. 49 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:54,040 And what we all probably want, or at least I want more of constantly is more energy, 50 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,120 more time to complete more tasks, do more, be more. 51 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:04,600 And so going to the gym definitely provides a huge edge on giving you more energy. 52 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:09,680 OK, so the first two weeks, three weeks, four weeks, whatever, everybody's a little bit 53 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:10,680 different in my opinion. 54 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:11,680 For me, it was about four weeks. 55 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,880 The first four weeks was absolute hell. 56 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,200 It's very hard to for me. 57 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,760 I was going at five thirty in the morning with my wife, so it's super hard for us to 58 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:20,840 get up. 59 00:04:20,840 --> 00:04:25,320 We have two young little girls under three that live with us and well, obviously live 60 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,680 with us, our daughters, but they also sleep with us in our bed. 61 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,760 And so we got to try and get up, not wake them up. 62 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,840 And at the same time, when you wake up, you just kind of want to cuddle with them. 63 00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:37,480 And so that made it even harder in my opinion. 64 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,640 I'm sure my wife can contest, but or atest. 65 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,680 But after going for about four weeks, that habit began to kick in. 66 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:53,400 And then also you start to see a little bit of a difference or I did in my energy in the 67 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:54,800 morning and my mental clarity. 68 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,320 We have team mornings, every team meetings every morning. 69 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:02,840 And so for me, I have to, you know, usually I have a lesson prepared and we're talking 70 00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:04,520 about certain topics. 71 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:09,200 And beforehand, I always felt a little clouded, you know, not sure. 72 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,440 You know, I usually thought it was due to lack of preparedness. 73 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:16,000 But even on the time that did prepare things didn't come to my mind as quick. 74 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:22,920 I was struggling to keep a topic on topic because I would go on a million tangents and 75 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:27,920 because there's obviously so much information that people cover in team meetings. 76 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,640 And as I was going to the gym and actually getting accustomed to that, my mental clarity 77 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:32,640 was sharper. 78 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,440 I was able to focus a lot better. 79 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:39,080 I can already tell you, I mean, logically being able to focus better in team meetings, 80 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,660 being able to focus better during the day and your task at hand. 81 00:05:42,660 --> 00:05:44,000 How can that not benefit you? 82 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,000 Right. 83 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,920 And then on top of that, more energy, I was able to stay later at work and be able to 84 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:53,560 have that mental energy, which if you're an entrepreneur or trying to build the business, 85 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:54,560 that is so important. 86 00:05:54,560 --> 00:06:00,220 Or if you're a mom at home dealing with crazy kids, the mental energy is so much more necessary 87 00:06:00,220 --> 00:06:01,600 than the physical energy. 88 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:02,600 Right. 89 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:09,360 And I know for a fact, like, you know, some experiences at work, it's kind of funny, actually. 90 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:16,160 So our electrician partner of ours, Khodie, his little brother came in one day and said, 91 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,120 you know, how can you not answer the phone and you're sitting down all day? 92 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,780 You do like, what do you even do? 93 00:06:21,780 --> 00:06:23,680 You don't even do anything. 94 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,720 And you know, it's kind of funny. 95 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:26,720 Just to like think about it. 96 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,080 And I started to think about it. 97 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,080 I'm like, you know what, dude? 98 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:34,480 Like today, let alone that day was so intense mentally, like I was already beginning to 99 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:40,480 feel tired around 1 p.m. because I was constantly answering phone calls, emails, you know, meeting 100 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:46,080 people, talking to people, solving problems, which is a huge, huge thing when it comes 101 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,080 to being an entrepreneur. 102 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,960 Your problem solving skill has to be at an all time high every single day because so 103 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,200 many people need you to solve their problems or have answers to their issues that they 104 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:56,200 may not know. 105 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:57,200 Right. 106 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:02,680 So you trying to solve the problem in running a business and constantly adapting on a daily 107 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:07,240 basis to new things and new situations. 108 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:12,400 So it was really it was interesting to kind of take a second and go back and be like, 109 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:13,400 OK, you know what? 110 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,960 I didn't do very much laboring at all. 111 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,720 I don't think I picked up a screwdriver. 112 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:18,800 We're a construction company. 113 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,040 So you would think I would be able to. 114 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,020 So you would think I'd be picking up a screwdriver at least. 115 00:07:25,020 --> 00:07:28,000 But I don't do very much manual labor. 116 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,280 What I do do is I am on the computer 24/7. 117 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,940 I am doing marketing and handling sales and contracts and relationships and all this kind 118 00:07:34,940 --> 00:07:35,940 of stuff. 119 00:07:35,940 --> 00:07:37,880 And that takes a lot out of you. 120 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:44,040 I won't say it's as draining as working out in 110 degree weather out here in Arizona, 121 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,560 but they're two different types of drainage. 122 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,880 They're two different types of tiredness. 123 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:56,800 So you need to build a threshold for both those types of energy draining tasks. 124 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:57,920 And how can you do that? 125 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,380 Well, you go to the gym. 126 00:07:59,380 --> 00:08:03,740 So our team has been really focused on that health and fitness. 127 00:08:03,740 --> 00:08:09,620 And we've seen a lot of improvements throughout months and months of actually progressing 128 00:08:09,620 --> 00:08:15,860 ourselves physically, working out and eating better, eating healthier, drinking more water. 129 00:08:15,860 --> 00:08:19,340 And again, the statistics, I mean, Google it. 130 00:08:19,340 --> 00:08:25,300 There's pages and pages and pages on benefits of eating healthy, working out, drinking water. 131 00:08:25,300 --> 00:08:31,240 And so you can only imagine by doing those things off work, you know, on your own, you're 132 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,900 going to be able to perform better at a higher capacity during the day at work and then also 133 00:08:35,900 --> 00:08:40,940 have more patience, more energy to go home, be with your wife, your spouse, girlfriend, 134 00:08:40,940 --> 00:08:43,200 your children and actually be able to hang out with them. 135 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,380 I used to come home when I was out of shape and actually laboring out in the heat. 136 00:08:48,380 --> 00:08:52,540 I would come home from work around four or five o'clock and I just couldn't do anything. 137 00:08:52,540 --> 00:08:57,380 I would just sit on the couch and want my girls to sit with me and watch a TV show or 138 00:08:57,380 --> 00:08:58,380 a movie or something. 139 00:08:58,380 --> 00:08:59,860 And they're trying to yank me up. 140 00:08:59,860 --> 00:09:00,860 Dad, let's play. 141 00:09:00,860 --> 00:09:03,460 And my excuse was, you know, I had a long day. 142 00:09:03,460 --> 00:09:05,020 Today was a hard day. 143 00:09:05,020 --> 00:09:07,500 That's a terrible excuse. 144 00:09:07,500 --> 00:09:11,420 And so for me, gym is super important, working out super important. 145 00:09:11,420 --> 00:09:15,260 You know what, you don't have to necessarily lift weights as long as you're staying active, 146 00:09:15,260 --> 00:09:17,220 going to a 45 minute walk. 147 00:09:17,220 --> 00:09:20,860 OK, but the most important thing is that you're constantly pushing your limits because that's 148 00:09:20,860 --> 00:09:22,420 how you're going to better yourself. 149 00:09:22,420 --> 00:09:26,740 If you're going to the gym and you're eating unhealthy, you're not going to see very good 150 00:09:26,740 --> 00:09:30,020 results and the results you do see are not going to benefit you as much. 151 00:09:30,020 --> 00:09:36,620 OK, it needs to be a matter of going and working out and a matter of eating healthy for your 152 00:09:36,620 --> 00:09:41,700 body to be at optimal operating capacity. 153 00:09:41,700 --> 00:09:46,420 So that's that's one thing on the personal development side that everybody should be 154 00:09:46,420 --> 00:09:50,300 focused on, whether you own a business, work in a business, it does not matter to be the 155 00:09:50,300 --> 00:09:55,260 best version of yourself is going to bless your life, bless other people's lives. 156 00:09:55,260 --> 00:09:58,220 And you're going to see a lot more successful results out of that. 157 00:09:58,220 --> 00:10:05,220 The other side of that is books and, you know, our self help books, self help podcasts, any 158 00:10:05,220 --> 00:10:08,380 type of material that's about bettering yourself. 159 00:10:08,380 --> 00:10:11,420 When we when we focus on business, there's a lot of that. 160 00:10:11,420 --> 00:10:16,180 There are some great business coaches like Grant Cardone and Andy Fercella. 161 00:10:16,180 --> 00:10:21,820 For example, these guys have a lot of material that they where they talk about self improvement, 162 00:10:21,820 --> 00:10:27,420 both spiritually or physically or mentally. 163 00:10:27,420 --> 00:10:33,340 And it's really interesting when you actually start studying these things, how much more 164 00:10:33,340 --> 00:10:35,380 information you're actually going to apply. 165 00:10:35,380 --> 00:10:36,380 Right. 166 00:10:36,380 --> 00:10:38,620 I know that seems like, oh, my gosh, of course, duh. 167 00:10:38,620 --> 00:10:40,340 No, you don't even need to say that. 168 00:10:40,340 --> 00:10:46,780 But unfortunately, I do, because there's a lot of people that I'm associated with and 169 00:10:46,780 --> 00:10:51,300 workers or whoever that they have this mentality that, oh, you know what, I can figure it out 170 00:10:51,300 --> 00:10:52,300 on my own. 171 00:10:52,300 --> 00:10:56,300 Well, just like most things in life, there's two ways to learn. 172 00:10:56,300 --> 00:10:59,220 OK, you can read about it, learn about it. 173 00:10:59,220 --> 00:11:02,100 You can experience it and learn from that experience. 174 00:11:02,100 --> 00:11:06,420 OK, and you're going to be able to gain knowledge out of that. 175 00:11:06,420 --> 00:11:14,720 But what the reading and studying don't do for you is they don't give you that experience. 176 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,660 And so a lot of times you're going to have to read and actually apply stuff that you 177 00:11:18,660 --> 00:11:23,060 read that you're being taught to be able to see the results and gain the wisdom from it. 178 00:11:23,060 --> 00:11:28,820 OK, so there's two different types of of learning or there's there's only one way to actually 179 00:11:28,820 --> 00:11:30,540 gain the wisdom that we're all seeking. 180 00:11:30,540 --> 00:11:32,060 And that is you have to learn about it. 181 00:11:32,060 --> 00:11:34,460 You have to experience it in action. 182 00:11:34,460 --> 00:11:37,580 And then you gain that wisdom and you can talk about it. 183 00:11:37,580 --> 00:11:39,180 You can share your experience about it. 184 00:11:39,180 --> 00:11:41,180 You know what to do, what not to do. 185 00:11:41,180 --> 00:11:45,900 OK, if you just read about what somebody is doing and or not doing, that's all just words 186 00:11:45,900 --> 00:11:48,100 until you actually put it into action. 187 00:11:48,100 --> 00:11:52,060 OK, so self-help books are really important. 188 00:11:52,060 --> 00:11:57,860 And whether you're reading on mental clarity or you're reading on completing goals or building 189 00:11:57,860 --> 00:12:02,420 a business or how to be a better husband, wife, how to be a better parent. 190 00:12:02,420 --> 00:12:05,420 Obviously, there's all kinds of self-help books. 191 00:12:05,420 --> 00:12:10,700 But the most important thing is that you're constantly reading and surrounding yourself 192 00:12:10,700 --> 00:12:17,620 by material to better you and further you along to the goals that you're trying to reach, 193 00:12:17,620 --> 00:12:19,780 whether it's at work or at home. 194 00:12:19,780 --> 00:12:22,180 OK, so we get one life. 195 00:12:22,180 --> 00:12:23,180 Right. 196 00:12:23,180 --> 00:12:32,260 So there is a a parable that Jesus teaches, which I love, and that's in the Bible. 197 00:12:32,260 --> 00:12:34,900 And it's about his servants. 198 00:12:34,900 --> 00:12:43,700 And there is a boss or leader who basically goes to his servants and gives them a a coin 199 00:12:43,700 --> 00:12:45,980 or a piece of money. 200 00:12:45,980 --> 00:12:53,020 And the goal that he's teaching in this is to go and multiply it. 201 00:12:53,020 --> 00:13:01,620 And quite a few of these servants go and when he comes back, they are able to show him more 202 00:13:01,620 --> 00:13:03,700 than what he had given them. 203 00:13:03,700 --> 00:13:05,940 And that made him happy. 204 00:13:05,940 --> 00:13:11,060 Then there is a servant who brought just that single piece of money back. 205 00:13:11,060 --> 00:13:13,860 And you know, Jesus says, hey, what is this? 206 00:13:13,860 --> 00:13:15,500 He's what I I went. 207 00:13:15,500 --> 00:13:16,500 I dug a hole. 208 00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:18,260 I put it in there to keep it safe. 209 00:13:18,260 --> 00:13:20,820 And I wanted to keep it safe for you. 210 00:13:20,820 --> 00:13:27,460 And that was not OK, because what the lesson is there is that we all have talent. 211 00:13:27,460 --> 00:13:28,460 We all have gifts. 212 00:13:28,460 --> 00:13:29,460 OK. 213 00:13:29,460 --> 00:13:34,940 And the goal of this life is to obtain more talent, obtain more gifts and better the talents 214 00:13:34,940 --> 00:13:37,780 that we already have or the gifts that we already have. 215 00:13:37,780 --> 00:13:39,380 That is part of this life. 216 00:13:39,380 --> 00:13:46,420 OK, so whatever talents and gifts or whatever you may be good at, there is always room for 217 00:13:46,420 --> 00:13:47,420 improvement. 218 00:13:47,420 --> 00:13:49,060 There's always new things to learn. 219 00:13:49,060 --> 00:13:50,060 OK. 220 00:13:50,060 --> 00:13:54,580 So that's part of life and development on a normal level, normal scale. 221 00:13:54,580 --> 00:13:59,060 And what these books and these materials help you do is they help you do that, but they 222 00:13:59,060 --> 00:14:00,580 also help you scale it. 223 00:14:00,580 --> 00:14:07,540 OK, you're going to be so much further and more progressed for the good of your own family, 224 00:14:07,540 --> 00:14:09,500 for the good of your spouse, for the good of your business. 225 00:14:09,500 --> 00:14:16,380 You're going to be able to be better, constantly progress and be better on a daily basis. 226 00:14:16,380 --> 00:14:20,660 And there's a saying, hey, one percent, all you need is to get better one percent each 227 00:14:20,660 --> 00:14:23,940 day and look back 20 years of doing that. 228 00:14:23,940 --> 00:14:28,540 20 years later, you look back, if you got better one percent each day, how far do you 229 00:14:28,540 --> 00:14:29,900 think you're going to be? 230 00:14:29,900 --> 00:14:32,220 How much better do you think you're going to be? 231 00:14:32,220 --> 00:14:33,220 Right. 232 00:14:33,220 --> 00:14:38,940 And another thing about the health and the wellness and the reading the self health health 233 00:14:38,940 --> 00:14:46,540 books is you create an environment that you're going to start surrounding yourself in. 234 00:14:46,540 --> 00:14:51,460 And this environment is going to be an environment where you're surrounded by like minded people. 235 00:14:51,460 --> 00:14:53,580 When you go to the gym, who's around you? 236 00:14:53,580 --> 00:14:57,700 You go to the gym and there's people trying to better themselves around you. 237 00:14:57,700 --> 00:15:04,260 When you listen to all these books, you're mentally seen and starting to notice the people 238 00:15:04,260 --> 00:15:07,980 that are on that same level or better than that level. 239 00:15:07,980 --> 00:15:11,740 And you're going to be able to actually go and create relationships with people that 240 00:15:11,740 --> 00:15:15,420 are on that level or better than that level or trying to get better. 241 00:15:15,420 --> 00:15:16,700 And what is that going to do for you? 242 00:15:16,700 --> 00:15:21,380 OK, you're going to surround yourself by all this and betterment and people constantly 243 00:15:21,380 --> 00:15:23,140 trying to be better and build better. 244 00:15:23,140 --> 00:15:27,420 And so you're going to be able to get even further because of the people you surround 245 00:15:27,420 --> 00:15:32,800 yourself by, the relationships that you make rather than going maybe at the end of each 246 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:38,460 day and want to hang out with friends that are not making good choices or are lazy, that 247 00:15:38,460 --> 00:15:39,840 don't accomplish anything. 248 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,300 What do you think that's going to do for you? 249 00:15:41,300 --> 00:15:48,140 Well, you're going to be sitting there doing that thing instead of moving forward and progressing. 250 00:15:48,140 --> 00:15:50,820 I think and this is just a personal opinion. 251 00:15:50,820 --> 00:15:57,900 I think there's a lot of words in this day of age of, hey, you just need to enjoy your 252 00:15:57,900 --> 00:15:58,900 life. 253 00:15:58,900 --> 00:16:02,360 You just need to enjoy your life and you need to know don't work so hard. 254 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,780 You need to create time for yourself and do this. 255 00:16:04,780 --> 00:16:07,300 And I want to be very clear. 256 00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:13,220 This life can be enjoyed by moving at 100 and 120 percent capacity. 257 00:16:13,220 --> 00:16:15,060 You're not going to miss out on anything. 258 00:16:15,060 --> 00:16:20,620 Matter of fact, you're going to create opportunities that you would have never had that you are 259 00:16:20,620 --> 00:16:22,180 absolutely going to love. 260 00:16:22,180 --> 00:16:27,220 OK, for example, what is the benefit of making more money in business? 261 00:16:27,220 --> 00:16:29,020 OK, for me, I'm a dad, right? 262 00:16:29,020 --> 00:16:32,140 So my main drive is, yeah, I do want to build something. 263 00:16:32,140 --> 00:16:36,860 I want to be better, have a great business that's successful, want to help people. 264 00:16:36,860 --> 00:16:38,220 And I want to make a ton of money. 265 00:16:38,220 --> 00:16:40,980 There's nothing wrong with that, because what am I going to do with that money? 266 00:16:40,980 --> 00:16:45,820 Well, that money allows me to help others, which me and my wife, we both want to do. 267 00:16:45,820 --> 00:16:52,860 And it also allows for us as parents to create these memories with our children that you 268 00:16:52,860 --> 00:16:54,980 wouldn't have been able to before. 269 00:16:54,980 --> 00:16:59,980 And to clarify again on something really important is, yes, you can have great memories at home, 270 00:16:59,980 --> 00:17:02,940 OK, movie night as a family or whatever you do or going to the park. 271 00:17:02,940 --> 00:17:06,700 OK, if you don't have money, there's many ways to create great memories. 272 00:17:06,700 --> 00:17:10,940 But there's so many other great memories that you can create and great opportunities you 273 00:17:10,940 --> 00:17:14,900 can create, like, hey, going and traveling the country with your daughter or my daughter. 274 00:17:14,900 --> 00:17:19,460 And again, I'm thinking of me, but traveling the states, visiting all the states, going 275 00:17:19,460 --> 00:17:22,780 out of the country, visiting amazing museums, Rome, Italy. 276 00:17:22,780 --> 00:17:27,500 I mean, there's so many things that I want to be able to experience with my family. 277 00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:30,100 And life is not that long, guys. 278 00:17:30,100 --> 00:17:32,140 OK, life is not that long. 279 00:17:32,140 --> 00:17:34,700 So you need to act now. 280 00:17:34,700 --> 00:17:38,060 And if you want, you know, if you're over there saying, hey, you know what? 281 00:17:38,060 --> 00:17:43,660 Well, I can know I'm grateful for what I have and I can, you know, I can enjoy and have 282 00:17:43,660 --> 00:17:48,900 and build great memories without money and without being successful in every aspect of 283 00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:49,900 my life. 284 00:17:49,900 --> 00:17:50,900 You know what? 285 00:17:50,900 --> 00:17:51,900 Yes, you can. 286 00:17:51,900 --> 00:17:56,540 But you're going to be enjoying the 2% level of happiness when you could have been enjoying 287 00:17:56,540 --> 00:17:58,340 the 100% level of happiness. 288 00:17:58,340 --> 00:18:01,340 OK, you get what you put in. 289 00:18:01,340 --> 00:18:03,020 And I believe that in our faith. 290 00:18:03,020 --> 00:18:07,220 I believe that in society is that, you know what? 291 00:18:07,220 --> 00:18:11,340 There's greatness around us everywhere and there's levels to that greatness. 292 00:18:11,340 --> 00:18:13,500 There's levels to that happiness. 293 00:18:13,500 --> 00:18:14,900 Right. 294 00:18:14,900 --> 00:18:16,420 I'm very grateful for where I am. 295 00:18:16,420 --> 00:18:17,420 I'm very grateful for what I have. 296 00:18:17,420 --> 00:18:18,420 And you know what? 297 00:18:18,420 --> 00:18:21,940 No, I'm not going to go spend five months in Italy. 298 00:18:21,940 --> 00:18:25,060 I personally don't have that money yet to do such a thing. 299 00:18:25,060 --> 00:18:28,500 But it's nice to go to Mexico with my daughters. 300 00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:30,260 It's nice to plan a Disneyland trip. 301 00:18:30,260 --> 00:18:31,620 We just went to Disneyland. 302 00:18:31,620 --> 00:18:33,700 OK, and that was fantastic. 303 00:18:33,700 --> 00:18:38,620 I literally was hoping we went with our family or my wife's family. 304 00:18:38,620 --> 00:18:39,620 And so I was super excited. 305 00:18:39,620 --> 00:18:40,620 OK, cool. 306 00:18:40,620 --> 00:18:41,620 You know, grandma and grandpa come in. 307 00:18:41,620 --> 00:18:45,420 They can watch the girls while we go on some rides, which is what we did. 308 00:18:45,420 --> 00:18:47,700 But that wasn't the best part of the trip. 309 00:18:47,700 --> 00:18:52,700 The best part of the trip wasn't spending those little moments laughing on a roller 310 00:18:52,700 --> 00:18:57,700 coaster, even though that's what I was expecting because I haven't been in Disneyland since 311 00:18:57,700 --> 00:18:59,460 I was really young. 312 00:18:59,460 --> 00:19:02,260 And so my memory is, oh, this is going to be so fun, right? 313 00:19:02,260 --> 00:19:04,820 Rides, all this kind of stuff, the food. 314 00:19:04,820 --> 00:19:08,660 The best part about Disneyland was seeing my daughter's faces the minute we walked in 315 00:19:08,660 --> 00:19:13,300 Disneyland, was seeing them just completely jaw dropped. 316 00:19:13,300 --> 00:19:17,380 Didn't couldn't even comprehend the amazingness they were looking at. 317 00:19:17,380 --> 00:19:22,620 And that was another amazing lesson that I knew, but finally got to really experience 318 00:19:22,620 --> 00:19:28,820 on a great level was that, you know, being a parent, all we want to do is see our children 319 00:19:28,820 --> 00:19:29,820 happy. 320 00:19:29,820 --> 00:19:34,140 OK, see them, you know, enjoy every single moment of life. 321 00:19:34,140 --> 00:19:39,420 And so no matter what I did at Disneyland, if I would have went by myself with just me 322 00:19:39,420 --> 00:19:41,220 and my wife, yes, we would have had a great time. 323 00:19:41,220 --> 00:19:43,820 But imagine if we wouldn't have taken our little girls. 324 00:19:43,820 --> 00:19:49,260 OK, it would have been I mean, I can't I couldn't even comprehend missing that opportunity 325 00:19:49,260 --> 00:19:50,760 and that experience. 326 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:59,100 So yes, be grateful where you are, you know, and feel like what you have is enough. 327 00:19:59,100 --> 00:20:01,500 But at the same time, it is OK. 328 00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:02,500 Push for more. 329 00:20:02,500 --> 00:20:03,500 Better yourself. 330 00:20:03,500 --> 00:20:06,260 Go further than anybody you know has gone. 331 00:20:06,260 --> 00:20:07,260 OK, take risks. 332 00:20:07,260 --> 00:20:13,660 That's another thing I talked about my friend today was that, you know, life is scary and 333 00:20:13,660 --> 00:20:14,980 being a parent is scary. 334 00:20:14,980 --> 00:20:22,580 I talked about my wife's pregnancy of Nova in our first episode, and that was scary. 335 00:20:22,580 --> 00:20:28,900 OK, covid no parents, pregnancy complications, 26 hour labor. 336 00:20:28,900 --> 00:20:30,260 I was scared crapless. 337 00:20:30,260 --> 00:20:34,020 I couldn't show that because my poor wife was scared crapless. 338 00:20:34,020 --> 00:20:36,580 So of course, I'm going to sit there and try and be strong. 339 00:20:36,580 --> 00:20:41,460 But the minute she went into the operating room and I was actually left alone on a bench, 340 00:20:41,460 --> 00:20:42,460 I cried. 341 00:20:42,460 --> 00:20:43,460 I bawled. 342 00:20:43,460 --> 00:20:44,460 OK. 343 00:20:44,460 --> 00:20:45,460 And. 344 00:20:45,460 --> 00:20:50,700 Having a baby, it can be risky, right? 345 00:20:50,700 --> 00:20:54,740 OK, my wife, we come to find out that we may have to have a C-section for every single 346 00:20:54,740 --> 00:20:55,740 child. 347 00:20:55,740 --> 00:20:57,060 OK, that's scary. 348 00:20:57,060 --> 00:21:00,860 There's a lot of controversy on how many kids you can get birth to, how many C-sections 349 00:21:00,860 --> 00:21:01,860 you can have. 350 00:21:01,860 --> 00:21:03,660 And we want six to eight kids. 351 00:21:03,660 --> 00:21:08,460 So there's always going to be things that are scary and things that are uncomfortable. 352 00:21:08,460 --> 00:21:09,940 But you need to take risks. 353 00:21:09,940 --> 00:21:12,780 If you don't take risk, you're never going to find out. 354 00:21:12,780 --> 00:21:13,780 You're never going to know. 355 00:21:13,780 --> 00:21:16,180 OK, I could sit here and be like, you know what? 356 00:21:16,180 --> 00:21:18,780 You know, if we have to have C-sections, we can only have four kids. 357 00:21:18,780 --> 00:21:20,660 But what if we could have six or seven? 358 00:21:20,660 --> 00:21:27,100 You know, how amazing would that be to actually have our dream come to pass and fruition of 359 00:21:27,100 --> 00:21:28,100 eight kids? 360 00:21:28,100 --> 00:21:32,700 OK, but if I don't, if we don't take that risk or if we don't keep pushing through it 361 00:21:32,700 --> 00:21:38,020 and we just accept that, hey, it's a little too dangerous to have a kid, then. 362 00:21:38,020 --> 00:21:39,700 Maybe we want to have to experience that. 363 00:21:39,700 --> 00:21:43,660 Now, obviously, there's limits to things and we know we follow doctor's opinions. 364 00:21:43,660 --> 00:21:47,460 But my point in this matter is the actual principle of you're never going to know if 365 00:21:47,460 --> 00:21:48,460 you don't try. 366 00:21:48,460 --> 00:21:56,340 OK, so one of the things in building a business is simply the fact of businesses start off 367 00:21:56,340 --> 00:21:57,340 right. 368 00:21:57,340 --> 00:21:58,340 You start a business. 369 00:21:58,340 --> 00:22:00,300 And if you're like me, when I first started, it was me. 370 00:22:00,300 --> 00:22:04,700 It was a brother or a stepfather, whatever, doing the work at hand. 371 00:22:04,700 --> 00:22:11,380 And the hardest thing for me to do was actually to hire somebody with money that I didn't 372 00:22:11,380 --> 00:22:18,620 think we were going to have to run a project or to perform a trade so that I would have 373 00:22:18,620 --> 00:22:22,300 more time to be able to go out and land more jobs, which is a necessity. 374 00:22:22,300 --> 00:22:24,060 You have to be able to bring in work. 375 00:22:24,060 --> 00:22:28,780 And if you guys are the people doing the work yourselves, what are you giving up? 376 00:22:28,780 --> 00:22:33,980 You are giving up the time to go and build relationships and find more jobs. 377 00:22:33,980 --> 00:22:39,780 So one of the first things you have to do is you have to alleviate enough time for yourself 378 00:22:39,780 --> 00:22:44,940 in your business to be able to actually go and find work and build relationships. 379 00:22:44,940 --> 00:22:48,300 And you need to trust the person you are hiring. 380 00:22:48,300 --> 00:22:55,980 OK, in our in our business coaching with with Jason Payne and Nikki T, they talked about 381 00:22:55,980 --> 00:23:01,220 an 80 20 rule that you could always train somebody to be 80 percent as good as you. 382 00:23:01,220 --> 00:23:03,140 OK, and that is good. 383 00:23:03,140 --> 00:23:04,260 That is good enough. 384 00:23:04,260 --> 00:23:08,420 They can do 80 percent of what you're doing, which means you have 80 percent more time 385 00:23:08,420 --> 00:23:10,340 to get out there and go get jobs. 386 00:23:10,340 --> 00:23:11,340 And what happens? 387 00:23:11,340 --> 00:23:13,460 Let's go down the rabbit hole, the process. 388 00:23:13,460 --> 00:23:18,140 OK, you hire somebody, they alleviate you the time to go find more work. 389 00:23:18,140 --> 00:23:19,140 What happens? 390 00:23:19,140 --> 00:23:20,140 You get more work. 391 00:23:20,140 --> 00:23:21,140 Then you need more people. 392 00:23:21,140 --> 00:23:25,140 Then you need more people to alleviate more time here to go get more jobs. 393 00:23:25,140 --> 00:23:26,540 And the chain keeps going on. 394 00:23:26,540 --> 00:23:29,660 And then you end up actually building something for yourself. 395 00:23:29,660 --> 00:23:33,340 I have come to find out after going through all this, we got to a point where I was sitting 396 00:23:33,340 --> 00:23:38,900 down at my desk one day and I had delegated all these tasks that were tasks that I should 397 00:23:38,900 --> 00:23:42,100 have somebody else doing and jobs were running themselves. 398 00:23:42,100 --> 00:23:45,940 And I'm like, dude, I don't know if I have anything to do right now. 399 00:23:45,940 --> 00:23:48,780 It's 12 o'clock and I've already finished my tasks for the day. 400 00:23:48,780 --> 00:23:51,980 Well, I can tell you right now, I definitely found stuff to do. 401 00:23:51,980 --> 00:23:53,900 OK, there's plenty of room for growth. 402 00:23:53,900 --> 00:23:56,260 There is more things, you know, coaching. 403 00:23:56,260 --> 00:24:01,020 You know, we started this podcast, obviously share experience, get more more of our image 404 00:24:01,020 --> 00:24:03,780 out there for more people to know us. 405 00:24:03,780 --> 00:24:09,380 There's more time for me to go get more jobs, which was actually amazing because we're actually 406 00:24:09,380 --> 00:24:11,940 pulling more work because I was a lot. 407 00:24:11,940 --> 00:24:16,340 I now can allot myself that time to go get the work. 408 00:24:16,340 --> 00:24:19,980 And before we weren't marketing, it was all a lot of referral basis, which is great. 409 00:24:19,980 --> 00:24:25,340 But now we have our same referral basis on top of me having the time to actually build 410 00:24:25,340 --> 00:24:32,020 the relationships, to actually focus on more marketing and working with other people and 411 00:24:32,020 --> 00:24:37,280 going to lunch and building relationships with people that have, you know, other companies 412 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:38,280 and working together. 413 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:44,020 I mean, it's just it's a huge range of opportunities when you're able to alleviate yourself and 414 00:24:44,020 --> 00:24:48,900 actually work and build a company and not work for your own company. 415 00:24:48,900 --> 00:24:55,580 OK, because you can own a job as a business owner and still not really own a business 416 00:24:55,580 --> 00:24:56,780 or run a business. 417 00:24:56,780 --> 00:25:02,300 OK, your your goal here, if you are building a business or scaling business is to have 418 00:25:02,300 --> 00:25:08,700 it be self-sufficient operating so that you can leave for a month if you wanted to. 419 00:25:08,700 --> 00:25:12,140 And your company could still sit back here and it could still grow. 420 00:25:12,140 --> 00:25:16,960 OK, but none of that, none of this, none of anything is going to happen if you don't take 421 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,700 that first step, if you do not take that first risk, whether you have a goal to be the most 422 00:25:21,700 --> 00:25:25,140 the richest person or the most successful business in the world or whether you're just 423 00:25:25,140 --> 00:25:26,860 trying to create a great life for yourself. 424 00:25:26,860 --> 00:25:28,980 You still have to take that first risk in your business. 425 00:25:28,980 --> 00:25:30,500 OK, you can't do everything. 426 00:25:30,500 --> 00:25:34,580 You need to rely on people for you to grow or else you're only going to be able to handle 427 00:25:34,580 --> 00:25:37,020 the capacity of you. 428 00:25:37,020 --> 00:25:39,240 And if that works for you, great. 429 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,740 But if you're listening to this podcast, I highly doubt that's what you're looking to 430 00:25:41,740 --> 00:25:42,740 do. 431 00:25:42,740 --> 00:25:43,740 Right. 432 00:25:43,740 --> 00:25:46,020 So and then we we talk about taking risks in your family. 433 00:25:46,020 --> 00:25:51,380 OK, so I don't know about you guys, but for me, you know, any risk I take is my wife's 434 00:25:51,380 --> 00:25:53,100 risk and vice versa. 435 00:25:53,100 --> 00:25:54,940 And so, you know, we're in it together. 436 00:25:54,940 --> 00:25:55,940 We're a team. 437 00:25:55,940 --> 00:26:00,980 You know, there's risks in family that you have to take as well. 438 00:26:00,980 --> 00:26:05,200 OK, so we talk, you know, I talked a little bit about, you know, the pregnancy thing or, 439 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,740 for example, if you're if you have to move across country or if you have to take your 440 00:26:08,740 --> 00:26:13,300 family and you need to position your family in a different environment or a different 441 00:26:13,300 --> 00:26:16,620 state or whatever the case is, because that's what's going to be best. 442 00:26:16,620 --> 00:26:17,620 Right. 443 00:26:17,620 --> 00:26:21,060 There's a lot of risks that you do have to take in family as you build your family. 444 00:26:21,060 --> 00:26:27,260 OK, so being able to take those risks, being able to trust your gut, that is going to take 445 00:26:27,260 --> 00:26:28,940 you a long way. 446 00:26:28,940 --> 00:26:32,900 If you do not take risks, you will never know. 447 00:26:32,900 --> 00:26:33,980 OK. 448 00:26:33,980 --> 00:26:38,900 And I think a great example of risk taking on a personal level is when you're trying 449 00:26:38,900 --> 00:26:41,260 to date, when you're trying to find a spouse. 450 00:26:41,260 --> 00:26:42,260 OK. 451 00:26:42,260 --> 00:26:47,020 Have you ever had people growing up or even now in your life, have you remembered, oh, 452 00:26:47,020 --> 00:26:48,020 you know what? 453 00:26:48,020 --> 00:26:51,820 I should go get that girl's number or that guy's number or I should introduce myself. 454 00:26:51,820 --> 00:26:53,140 And then you chicken out. 455 00:26:53,140 --> 00:26:54,140 OK. 456 00:26:54,140 --> 00:26:55,140 Guess what? 457 00:26:55,140 --> 00:26:56,140 Could have been great. 458 00:26:56,140 --> 00:26:57,140 Who would have known? 459 00:26:57,140 --> 00:26:58,140 Could have been bad. 460 00:26:58,140 --> 00:26:59,140 You're right. 461 00:26:59,140 --> 00:27:00,140 One hundred percent. 462 00:27:00,140 --> 00:27:05,060 But as it stands now, you have no clue because you did not go and take that risk. 463 00:27:05,060 --> 00:27:06,140 OK. 464 00:27:06,140 --> 00:27:14,260 And one hundred percent, I can tell you that I am so grateful for my for my wife because 465 00:27:14,260 --> 00:27:19,020 where I was in my life when I first met her, I wasn't going to take that risk. 466 00:27:19,020 --> 00:27:20,020 OK. 467 00:27:20,020 --> 00:27:22,980 I was just feeling like I needed to focus on something different. 468 00:27:22,980 --> 00:27:23,980 I was scared. 469 00:27:23,980 --> 00:27:25,660 I didn't want to get married quick. 470 00:27:25,660 --> 00:27:32,380 And luckily for me, OK, very, very luckily for me, my wife sliod into my DMs, she took that 471 00:27:32,380 --> 00:27:33,380 risk. 472 00:27:33,380 --> 00:27:34,820 I responded six months later. 473 00:27:34,820 --> 00:27:35,820 We're married. 474 00:27:35,820 --> 00:27:38,660 Six months after that, we have we get pregnant with our first daughter. 475 00:27:38,660 --> 00:27:41,780 And I mean, the cycle goes on till today. 476 00:27:41,780 --> 00:27:46,180 And I can tell you that, yeah, sure, I wouldn't have known that. 477 00:27:46,180 --> 00:27:49,220 But if there ever came a day where I would actually be able to look back and I would 478 00:27:49,220 --> 00:27:55,340 have seen that I would have missed this life, I mean. 479 00:27:55,340 --> 00:27:56,820 Speechless, right? 480 00:27:56,820 --> 00:27:59,420 So take risks, guys. 481 00:27:59,420 --> 00:28:00,740 Don't be scared. 482 00:28:00,740 --> 00:28:01,740 Don't make dumb decisions. 483 00:28:01,740 --> 00:28:02,740 OK. 484 00:28:02,740 --> 00:28:03,740 Contemplate it. 485 00:28:03,740 --> 00:28:04,740 Take time to think. 486 00:28:04,740 --> 00:28:09,500 Don't let the contemplating and the research part of taking a risk interrupt the action 487 00:28:09,500 --> 00:28:10,740 part. 488 00:28:10,740 --> 00:28:12,020 Make moves. 489 00:28:12,020 --> 00:28:13,180 Do something. 490 00:28:13,180 --> 00:28:14,180 Take action. 491 00:28:14,180 --> 00:28:16,660 OK, if you don't, you will never know. 492 00:28:16,660 --> 00:28:18,340 So sum everything up. 493 00:28:18,340 --> 00:28:19,340 We've talked about a few things today. 494 00:28:19,340 --> 00:28:25,140 We've talked about health, right, nutrition, fitness, and we've talked about taking risks 495 00:28:25,140 --> 00:28:30,460 and a little bit about building businesses and personal development. 496 00:28:30,460 --> 00:28:33,540 And these three basic things. 497 00:28:33,540 --> 00:28:35,140 OK, these are the basics, guys. 498 00:28:35,140 --> 00:28:38,620 This isn't like, OK, we're on level 20 over here and we need to start reading personal 499 00:28:38,620 --> 00:28:40,780 development books. 500 00:28:40,780 --> 00:28:47,320 This is the three most basic things, in my opinion, that you need to do on a daily basis 501 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,580 for you to be successful, whether you're studying for a degree, whether you're building a business, 502 00:28:51,580 --> 00:28:54,500 building a family, whatever you're trying to do. 503 00:28:54,500 --> 00:28:59,180 These three things are going to progress you further towards your goal. 504 00:28:59,180 --> 00:29:04,140 I want you guys to also know that these basic things, the things that we're going to be 505 00:29:04,140 --> 00:29:06,820 teaching, the things that my team is going to be sharing, all the people that we're going 506 00:29:06,820 --> 00:29:09,220 to be interviewing in the next couple of weeks. 507 00:29:09,220 --> 00:29:12,180 These are all things that we are doing on a daily basis. 508 00:29:12,180 --> 00:29:16,780 We're not going to teach you guys stuff that we haven't applied or do not do. 509 00:29:16,780 --> 00:29:18,980 And if we do, we're going to make it very clear. 510 00:29:18,980 --> 00:29:23,240 It's an idea and we're going to be trying and we're excited to see it and maybe invite 511 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:24,240 you to do it. 512 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,080 But we're going to make it well known. 513 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:32,740 We want to share exactly the things that we have applied in our personal and lives and 514 00:29:32,740 --> 00:29:35,900 our business lives that have worked that show results. 515 00:29:35,900 --> 00:29:42,980 And I can promise you that by following these things, by acting on it, OK, and not just 516 00:29:42,980 --> 00:29:48,500 dabbling in it, actually putting yourself into a hundred percent capacity and to every 517 00:29:48,500 --> 00:29:50,480 little thing that we are talking about. 518 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:55,860 You guys will see the results, the same results that we see, are seen, have seen, and it's 519 00:29:55,860 --> 00:30:00,340 going to be an amazing experience for you guys to find out the things that actually 520 00:30:00,340 --> 00:30:01,340 work. 521 00:30:01,340 --> 00:30:02,340 And then guess what? 522 00:30:02,340 --> 00:30:03,340 You get to go share with other people. 523 00:30:03,340 --> 00:30:06,460 You get to teach people about it, what to do, what not to do. 524 00:30:06,460 --> 00:30:13,940 And so again, we we're here to learn more about how to balance the work and home life and 525 00:30:13,940 --> 00:30:17,660 the things on how to build a business, how to build a home, a safe home, a good home, 526 00:30:17,660 --> 00:30:19,540 be better at everything in our lives. 527 00:30:19,540 --> 00:30:22,100 This isn't just on one topic. 528 00:30:22,100 --> 00:30:26,500 And we better ourselves, we better everybody around us, and we make an impact in the world. 529 00:30:26,500 --> 00:30:27,500 And that is the goal. 530 00:30:27,500 --> 00:30:31,540 OK, this world needs more people that are trying to better themselves on a daily basis. 531 00:30:31,540 --> 00:30:35,280 This world needs more people that are going to reach a lending hand, more people that 532 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:41,060 think before they speak, think before they act, more people that can make a
