- 1:04Hello and welcome to the Warrior Kings podcast.
- 1:07I'm your host, Michael Riggs here to assist you on your
- 1:10journey to living a fully optimized, leveled up life as a
- 1:13man. So again, welcome and welcome
- 1:16back to the Warrior Kings podcast.
- 1:18It's great to be here today. It's great to talk to you today.
- 1:20If you're a regular listener of this show, the last couple of
- 1:24episodes sounded very echoey. That's because there wasn't very
- 1:27much in the new studio room, but I got some sound panels up, some
- 1:31things to kind of dampen the echo and fix the sound a little
- 1:35bit. So it is my hopes, I don't know
- 1:37yet because I'm just recording this, but it is my hope that
- 1:39this episode sounds way better than the previous last couple of
- 1:43episodes. But what we're going to get into
- 1:45today is the seven things that I wish I had learned, that I wish
- 1:48that I had been taught before my 30s in hopes, like I said, that
- 1:52it will help you in your life before you get into your 30s, or
- 1:55maybe it'll even help you. Maybe you're one of the guys
- 1:57who's listening to this, who's actually in your 30s, forties,
- 2:0050s, and you still don't know some of these things.
- 2:02I still think that there's going to be a lot of valuable
- 2:05information in this episode that can help you in any stage of
- 2:08life, regardless of your age. So with all that being said,
- 2:11let's dive right into it. And the first thing that I wish
- 2:14I had known that I wish that I had been taught is financial
- 2:17literacy. When I was growing up, I was
- 2:20taught pretty much nothing about money.
- 2:22I was taught nothing about credit.
- 2:24I didn't know how money worked. It just wasn't a subject in our
- 2:27household growing up, like the importance of money.
- 2:29Money was very scarce in our household.
- 2:32A lot of scarcity mindset. We didn't have a lot of nice
- 2:35things. We couldn't get new things.
- 2:37You know, most of the time my shoes that I wore every day were
- 2:40from Dollar General. But yeah, money was just not a
- 2:43topic in our household, or at least not in a constructive
- 2:46manner. It was more like fear around
- 2:48money. Like how are we going to make
- 2:50the bills? Can we get XY and Z that we
- 2:53need? Will we have food, tea, you
- 2:54know, that sort of thing. So I was never taught about
- 2:57money, how money works. Like I said, I wasn't taught
- 2:59about credit or anything like that and it wasn't until my 30s
- 3:03that I dove in and actually started learning about money,
- 3:05studying money and the things that I have learned in the last
- 3:08few years are completely mind blowing because if I had known
- 3:11these things 1020 years ago, I would be in a completely
- 3:15different life, a completely different financial situation.
- 3:19There are so many things that most of us aren't taught growing
- 3:21up that are kind of like life hacks around money.
- 3:24They can make your life a lot easier.
- 3:26They can give you a lot more freedom.
- 3:28You realize that money, something just to pay the bills,
- 3:32it's energy and it's the doorway to freedom.
- 3:35And there are ways to multiply it that are very, very simple
- 3:38that for some reason nobody tells us about or teaches us.
- 3:41It's like a gatekeep thing. But if you're a young man or at
- 3:45any point in your life that you're getting this message,
- 3:47start studying money, how money works.
- 3:50And the way that I did that was I started diving into books.
- 3:53I started watching content on YouTube about money, about how
- 3:57rich people view money, how they multiply their money, money
- 4:00mindset type stuff, right? There's a book behind me over
- 4:03here you might see on the bookshelf called the Psychology
- 4:05of money. That book alone just taught me
- 4:08so many things and completely blew my mind when it comes to
- 4:11investing. I didn't even know what that
- 4:12meant before. You know, you hear people say
- 4:15you need to invest, you need to do this and that.
- 4:17And it's just kind of like, oh, that's something that certain
- 4:20people do or whatever and doesn't apply to me because I'm
- 4:23just a regular average person. So I never really paid any
- 4:26attention to that stuff. But as soon as I learned what
- 4:28investing even means, so many doors in my mind were unlocked.
- 4:33You know what I mean? There's also a book that I read,
- 4:35Rich Dad, Poor Dad, which talks about the difference between
- 4:39assets versus liabilities and entrepreneurship mindset.
- 4:43Absolutely mind blowing book. So I would say Start learning
- 4:46about money as fast as you possibly can.
- 4:48Learn as much as you can about how money works because
- 4:51ultimately it's going to make your life, your endeavors,
- 4:54everything just way easier. You're going to have more
- 4:57freedom in your life once you start viewing money in the the
- 5:00right way. And the difference between how
- 5:02your average person views money and how a rich person views
- 5:05money, those things are vastly different.
- 5:07As soon as you start realizing that, especially if you come
- 5:10from a disadvantaged background like I did, you might think of
- 5:14rich people as evil, greedy, money grubbing people who cheat
- 5:18and wrong people. And that couldn't be further
- 5:20from the truth. Your average person sees money
- 5:23as like, let me get as much as I can, let me get as much as I
- 5:25can. Let me hold on to as much as I
- 5:27can. I use money to get nice things.
- 5:30And the way that rich people view money is more like energy.
- 5:33It can be exchanged for freedom. I mean, I don't even know where
- 5:36to begin with the subject of how rich people view money
- 5:40differently than the rest of us. There's a lot that goes into
- 5:43that. That would have to be like a 10
- 5:44episode series. But rich people view money way
- 5:48different than your average person.
- 5:49And learning that, learning how they see it will just blow your
- 5:53mind. It will open up so many
- 5:54opportunities, so many doors open up so many ideas, creative
- 5:58ideas in your head. But one, one thing I wish I had
- 6:00learned about when I was younger, and it's one of the
- 6:02most important things on this list is money.
- 6:05Start studying money, get some books, read 20 books about how
- 6:09money works, consume some content online, listen to some
- 6:12podcasts, learn about money. And the second thing I wish I
- 6:16had been taught and learned about when I was growing up is
- 6:19emotional control as a man, and that is the mastery of your
- 6:23emotions. I used to be a very angry
- 6:25person. I used to react very emotionally
- 6:28to things. I used to cry a lot.
- 6:30Even in my 20s, if something really upset me, I would cry.
- 6:33I'm going to be honest with you right now, me, the Warrior Kings
- 6:35podcast guy, author of Warrior Husband.
- 6:38In my 20s, I was very emotional, very angry.
- 6:41I would fly off the rails and I would cry.
- 6:43And this was before I began to learn what it means to be a man,
- 6:46what a man is supposed to be, what it really comes down to,
- 6:49what emotional control comes down to.
- 6:51It's not that you never feel anything.
- 6:53Some guys get it wrong and they think I'm going to quench my
- 6:56emotions and I'm going to be stoic and not feel anything.
- 6:59That's not what it's about. You're going to feel things
- 7:01sometimes. Things are going to piss you
- 7:03off. Things are going to make you
- 7:05angry. Things are going to make you
- 7:06sad, sometimes very sad. And that's OK.
- 7:09What emotional control is about is how you choose to respond to
- 7:13that feeling. Do you have control over your
- 7:16emotions? If something makes you sad, do
- 7:18you cry? Maybe sometimes, but not all.
- 7:20You shouldn't be crying at every little thing.
- 7:22You should have control of your emotions.
- 7:24If something pisses you off, you should be able to feel pissed
- 7:27off without flying off the rails and losing at somebody.
- 7:30So many men never take control of their emotions and it gets
- 7:34them in all sorts of trouble in life.
- 7:36It gets them in trouble in their relationships.
- 7:38They don't know how to navigate relationships and communication
- 7:41with women like I didn't in my 20s.
- 7:43Sometimes men fly off the rails and get in a fight and they ruin
- 7:47their whole life based on an emotion that would have been
- 7:50gone an hour later. They get pissed off, they do the
- 7:53wrong thing and their life is over.
- 7:55You have to have control over your emotions.
- 7:57That is self mastery. That is what being a mask man is
- 8:00all about. And when it comes to being stoic
- 8:03and manly, it's not about not feeling anything, it's just
- 8:07about not being a little bit. You don't want your emotions to
- 8:10drive your life. You want to be in control of
- 8:13your life. And if your emotions are
- 8:15controlling your life, honestly, you might never be a happy
- 8:18person life. Trust me, I have had plenty of
- 8:23opportunities to lose my mind, plenty of opportunities to punch
- 8:27somebody in the face, plenty of opportunities for road rage.
- 8:30Just like we all do. I am just in control of myself.
- 8:34I am in control of my emotions and I don't let those emotions
- 8:37dictate my actions. I am in control of my actions.
- 8:40So it's not about feeling nothing.
- 8:42It's about how you choose to respond to that feeling.
- 8:46Men should be unmovable, unshakable, not being able to be
- 8:50thrown off by anyone or anything.
- 8:53Feel the feeling, but control yourself and control your
- 8:56actions. Control what you can and what
- 8:59you can control is yourself. And like I said, you will be sad
- 9:03sometimes you will be pissed off sometimes you will feel like
- 9:06losing your mind sometimes. Sometimes you might even feel a
- 9:09little anxious and depressed. But it's how you choose to
- 9:12respond. Please keep that with you.
- 9:14The third thing that I wish that I had been taught, that I wish I
- 9:17had learned growing up before my 30s is communication with women.
- 9:22Listen, men and women are vastly different beings no matter what
- 9:26the world is trying to tell us these days.
- 9:29One huge mistake that I made in my past relationships as a
- 9:32teenager and in my 20s was not even considering that I feel
- 9:37differently and I communicate completely differently than
- 9:40women do. And a lot of the times I would
- 9:42run into the mistake of saying like, you don't understand how I
- 9:45feel or trying to force them to feel how I feel or trying to get
- 9:49them to be more like me. I guess I don't know, it doesn't
- 9:52make any sense. But that's because I was never
- 9:53taught. I never considered that women
- 9:56are completely different than I am.
- 9:58Like, I don't know how to stress that enough.
- 9:59It we just operate completely differently.
- 10:02And as soon as you realize that and begin learning about how to
- 10:05properly communicate with women and how they operate, this
- 10:08doesn't just make your relationships better, like your
- 10:11romantic relationships, but it also changes your everyday life,
- 10:15your day-to-day life, how you interact with women, all across
- 10:18the board. Realizing that men and women are
- 10:21vastly different, learning what those differences are has the
- 10:24power to transform your whole life.
- 10:26I was about 2829 years old when I picked up the book The Way of
- 10:31the Superior Man for the first time, and that book completely
- 10:34changed my life. It's a book on communication
- 10:37with women, mostly in relationship, but it pretty much
- 10:40covers everything when it comes to communication with women and
- 10:43how men and women are different, like the polarity between US and
- 10:46how to navigate communication and relationships with women.
- 10:50I can't that book enough. Like, if you find yourself,
- 10:53like, struggling in your relationships, in your marriage,
- 10:56in communication with women, even you know any women in your
- 10:59life, you're like, I don't really understand how to
- 11:01communicate with them. I can't recommend that book
- 11:03enough. It will completely change your
- 11:05life. But yeah, what it really comes
- 11:07down to is realizing and learning that men and women are
- 11:10different. Our minds are different, they
- 11:11operate differently, and we communicate in different ways.
- 11:14This can save you so many headaches, so many problems in
- 11:17your life. And also learning to be in your
- 11:20masculine being, in your masculine role, being the man in
- 11:23your relationships and what that looks like.
- 11:25Because learning this doesn't just teach you all about women,
- 11:28it teaches you about yourself as well.
- 11:30Because you see, oh, this is the difference between US and this
- 11:34is who I'm supposed to be in this interaction or in this
- 11:37marriage or in this relationship.
- 11:38This is my role. So this is how I'm going to
- 11:40conduct myself. In order for this relationship
- 11:43to be successful, in order for this communication to be
- 11:46successful, I need to be in my masculine energy, my masculine
- 11:50core. So it will teach you that as
- 11:52well. The fourth thing that I wish I
- 11:54learned more about and had kept up with way better in my life is
- 11:57physical fitness. Ask any man in his 30s and up
- 12:01who is not fit, including myself, if they wish that they
- 12:05had kept up with physical fitness better in their teen
- 12:08years and in their 20s. And I guarantee you they will
- 12:10say yes. I say yes because The thing is,
- 12:13it compounds overtime. And if you're not building it,
- 12:16if you're not keeping up with it, someday you just won't have
- 12:19it. And that really, really sucks.
- 12:21Aside from getting on TRT and going really, really hard, like
- 12:26it is very, very difficult. I can tell you right now in my
- 12:28late 30s, it is way, way, way, way more difficult to get fit
- 12:32and healthy than it is to get super fat and lazy.
- 12:35The thing is, health and fitness compounds overtime over a long
- 12:39time. And so do health problems.
- 12:41And another thing that you need to realize is that it is a
- 12:44lifelong journey. There is no point when you're
- 12:46finished, you don't get super fit and healthy and be like, oh
- 12:48good, I'm done. It is a lifelong suit.
- 12:51It is something that you have to keep up with.
- 12:53I want to stress this to you, if you were a young man, please
- 12:57exercise a few times a week, lift some weights, eat properly
- 13:01because like I said there, there could come a day when you're
- 13:04like this is it's, it's almost impossible to reverse this.
- 13:08You know, we all think that we have more time.
- 13:10We put it off until later, like I'll get fit someday.
- 13:13There is no someday that someday is right now.
- 13:17Trust me. And accepting that it is a
- 13:19lifelong thing, something that is going to be a part of your
- 13:22life for your entire life. Accepting that makes it easier
- 13:25to stay consistent because then you're not working for some goal
- 13:29that you're trying to get to as fast as possible.
- 13:31It's just a part of your life. You say this is something that
- 13:34I'm always going to do and not being in a hurry about it, but
- 13:37just doing your best, staying consistent.
- 13:40I mean, you're going to look better, feel better, and live
- 13:43better by keeping up with your physical fitness.
- 13:46That is one of my lifelong regrets is not pursuing health
- 13:50and fitness for my entire life. It is much more difficult to get
- 13:53healthy and fit in your 30s than it is to get healthy and fit in
- 13:57your 20s. And if you are healthy and fit
- 13:59in your 20s, it is guaranteed that you will be healthy and fit
- 14:02in your 30s. If you're not healthy and fit in
- 14:04your 20s, it's almost guaranteed that you will not be healthy and
- 14:07fit in your 30s and beyond. And remember what I said,
- 14:11fitness stacks overtime and so do health problems.
- 14:14And you want to be healthy and fit in your 30s and beyond.
- 14:18You don't want to be average. You don't want to be fat and
- 14:21average. One more cool thing about that
- 14:23before we move on to the next one is in your 30s and beyond,
- 14:26if you are healthy and fit and if you have stacked that through
- 14:29your 20s and your 30s, you're in the top couple of percent of men
- 14:34across the board. Like there are so few men in
- 14:37their 30s, forties, 50s and 60s who are super fit and healthy.
- 14:40So you're getting way ahead of the game by looking ahead and
- 14:43saying I want to be one of those super healthy, fit guys when I'm
- 14:47that age. The fifth thing on this list is
- 14:49effective communication and relationship building.
- 14:52One thing that I didn't do throughout the years is build
- 14:56strong relationships, build strong connections with people.
- 15:00I was kind of a nightmare in my life when I was younger.
- 15:02I wasn't a very good guy. I put it simply, I was an and so
- 15:06most of the people who spent time around me, they didn't
- 15:09stick around as I got older. We didn't keep in touch, you
- 15:12know what I'm saying? They were like, I'm going to get
- 15:14as far away as I can from that guy because I was kind of just a
- 15:17super toxic person, right? And unfortunately, because of
- 15:21that, this made so many aspects of my life more complicated and
- 15:24more difficult. You know, by the end of my 20s,
- 15:27there were no friendships. There was number support system.
- 15:30There's nobody to turn to when I needed help with something.
- 15:33It is so important to cultivate good relationships with people,
- 15:37genuine relationships with people, and then those people
- 15:40become connections that you have in your life.
- 15:42As you get older, when you're in your adult life, you will have
- 15:45all of these connections. And if you don't have those
- 15:47connections, life is really, really complicated and
- 15:50difficult. And it's not just about having
- 15:52connections to get things, it's about serving others as well.
- 15:55If you serve people well in their lives, if you're there for
- 15:58them, if you take care of them, if when they need help, you are
- 16:01the first person that they can turn to guaranteed to help them.
- 16:04If you serve other people well, they will be happy to serve you
- 16:07back. So I strongly suggest, I
- 16:10strongly urge you to craft, cultivate strong relationships,
- 16:14strong friendships, be the best person that you can be to other
- 16:18people so that by the time you're in your 30s, you're not
- 16:20living life on your own. And you have people that you can
- 16:23turn to who have their own skills, who have their own
- 16:27professions, people that you can turn to when things happen in
- 16:30your life. You need to build a network of
- 16:33people, a network of people who have their own trades skills.
- 16:37Talent makes life so much easier and I I can tell you for sure it
- 16:41is almost impossible to make friends in your 30s, especially
- 16:46if you make the mistake of not keeping up with being a social
- 16:49person. You haven't been flexing that
- 16:51muscle, building that muscle, and now you're in your 30s, it's
- 16:54like, holy crap, how do I even make friends?
- 16:56Who do I talk to? How do I find people who have
- 16:59similar interests? When you're in your teen years
- 17:01and in your 20s, it's very easy to connect with people over
- 17:04things that you're commonly interested about.
- 17:07Way, way, way more difficult in your 30s and beyond.
- 17:09Trust So again, I highly suggest that you build strong, genuine,
- 17:14good friendships that you are good to these people that you
- 17:16treat them well that you are the friend that they know that they
- 17:19can turn to and if you keep that relationship alive, if you keep
- 17:22in touch, if you keep that connection there, that
- 17:25friendship will be for a lifetime.
- 17:27The sixth thing that you need to master before 30 is skill
- 17:31stacking, and this is one that actually isn't one of my
- 17:33regrets. This is something that I did,
- 17:35and this one actually has made my life a whole lot easier.
- 17:39What you need to do is follow your hobbies and your interests
- 17:42while you're young. Whatever you're interested in,
- 17:44go full force into that thing and learn as much as you can
- 17:47about it while you're really into it.
- 17:49And you'll be interested in different things.
- 17:51And what's happening with that is that you're stacking skills
- 17:54overtime. And what happened for me is I
- 17:57was stacking skills over the years that ultimately led to my
- 18:00purpose, my calling in life. I was interested in so many
- 18:04different things over the years that gave me all these skills
- 18:06that all came together to become this what you're watching,
- 18:10listening to right now. If you've read my books, it
- 18:12became that I pursued all sorts of things before I was the
- 18:16Warrior King's podcast guy. I've been into video and content
- 18:20creation before and other genres.
- 18:22I've written sci-fi and fantasy books.
- 18:24Those are just a couple of examples.
- 18:26But what I ultimately ended up doing was creating a podcast, a
- 18:29video podcast, and writing books to help men in their lives.
- 18:33I was stacking skills overtime, you understand what I'm saying?
- 18:36So if you're interested in anything at all, if it doesn't
- 18:39seem like it could be a career or an ultimate purpose, learn as
- 18:42much as you can about that thing and trust me, it is leading to
- 18:45your ultimate purpose. Stack those skills overtime and
- 18:48someday you will say, Oh my gosh, I didn't know that doing
- 18:51magic tricks was going to lead to this other thing.
- 18:54You know, like you never know, Never stop learning and never
- 18:58stop stacking skills. There's some guys who are
- 19:01really, really great at one thing.
- 19:04And then there are some guys like me who are really, really
- 19:06great at a lot of things. And it is possible for any of to
- 19:10be that person, be a lifelong learner, learn as much as you
- 19:14can about anything that you're interested in.
- 19:16And that is what I call skill stack.
- 19:18And the seventh thing on this list that you need to master
- 19:22before your 30s. This is the most important, most
- 19:25critical thing that I wish so bad that I had, that I had done,
- 19:29that I had learned about when I was a young man.
- 19:31And that is cultivate a relationship with God.
- 19:34Before I started learning about God, before I became a
- 19:38Christian, before I even stepped foot in a church, I was a
- 19:41nightmare in my life. I mentioned this before I was
- 19:44completely lost in life. I didn't even know who I was.
- 19:47And as soon as I learned about God, as soon as I pursued God,
- 19:51as soon as I started to pray and cultivated a relationship with
- 19:54God, my entire life changed supernaturally.
- 19:57I could tell you the whole story right now, but again, that might
- 20:00be enough for a whole episode. And I'm not just saying this.
- 20:02I'm not just making this up like it completely changed my life in
- 20:06a supernatural way. It took me from nothing, being
- 20:09no one, barely. Had a job.
- 20:10I was living by myself. My whole life had just fallen
- 20:13apart. I was crashing and crumbling.
- 20:16I mean, I cultivated a relationship with God, started
- 20:19praying in such a short timeframe I I'm suddenly living
- 20:24the life of my dreams with my dream wife.
- 20:27I have beautiful children with her.
- 20:28Our life gets better and better with every season.
- 20:31And if God answers prayers like that, if God can change that
- 20:34much about someone S life, I just wish so badly that I had
- 20:38cultivated a relationship with God when I was younger because
- 20:41how different could my life be by now?
- 20:44I see it as kind of that compounding overtime effect.
- 20:47We got a guy leaf blowing outside apparently.
- 20:50You're probably hearing that, but imagine how much further I
- 20:53could have gone if I had loved God, pursued God, prayed to God
- 20:57sooner than I did. Because I didn't become a
- 20:59Christian and start truly learning about God until my
- 21:02early 30s. And like I said, it completely
- 21:05transformed and changed my whole life.
- 21:07My life would have been a whole lot better, a whole easier if I
- 21:10had cultivated a relationship with God when I was younger.
- 21:13And I believe that as a fact. And if you don't know where to
- 21:17start, just start praying, just start talking to God.
- 21:20That is where I started. I started praying again.
- 21:23I say again because I, I prayed a lot when I was really young,
- 21:27but I had fallen out of it in my 20s and I started praying again,
- 21:31genuinely, honestly to God. And that's when things started
- 21:34moving in my life. That's when things started
- 21:37changing in my life. That's when somebody randomly
- 21:39came into my workplace, offered me a new job, and then invited
- 21:43me to church. Imagine that.
- 21:44That's after I started praying. It's like this guy was planted
- 21:48in my life to completely change my life.
- 21:50God sent him to me. That's why I say miraculous.
- 21:53Miraculous changes when you start genuinely pursuing a
- 21:56relationship with God, and that starts by just talking to Him
- 21:59and then by trying to listen to him.
- 22:01And it's never too late. If you're one of those guys,
- 22:04you're like, it's too late for me.
- 22:05I've been too much of a piece of in my life.
- 22:07I've done too many messed up things.
- 22:09That is not true. It is never too late.
- 22:11There is redemption for every person.
- 22:13And maybe you've met Christian people before who are very
- 22:16condemning. They're very judgmental.
- 22:18Those people don't know true Christianity.
- 22:20They don't know the true God. They don't know the true Jesus.
- 22:23They don't know what they're talking about.
- 22:24The entire story of the Bible is about messed up guys who God
- 22:29used to do great things. The whole gospel, the whole
- 22:32story of Jesus is that we are all sinners, we are all messed
- 22:36up, and that's why we need a savior.
- 22:38There is no one righteous, no one perfect, even though a lot
- 22:41of quote UN quote Christians get that wrong.
- 22:44It is never too late for anyone to build a relationship with God
- 22:48and it is the most important aspect.
- 22:50This whole thing. If I can give you just one piece
- 22:53of advice, if you were to completely forget everything
- 22:56else I said in this episode about how to make your life
- 22:59better before 30. If I could just pick one of
- 23:01those things that was the most important thing.
- 23:03This is the one. So like I said, start praying,
- 23:06start pursuing God. It doesn't have to be a whole
- 23:08big thing. You don't got to like
- 23:10obsessively change your whole life around it.
- 23:12Just simply start praying, cultivate a relationship with
- 23:14God, and trust me, your life will be a whole lot better
- 23:17before you're my age. And if you take all of the
- 23:19things that I've talks about in this episode today and you take
- 23:23them seriously, you will be more successful by my age than I will
- 23:26ever be in my life. So think about that.
- 23:30And that's what I got for you guys today.
- 23:31I hope you got something out of this episode.
- 23:33I'm sorry about all the background noise.
- 23:35It's really a struggle because this is a brand new house and
- 23:38they're building other houses outside right now as we speak.
- 23:41It's like a whole construction zone out there, but we're going
- 23:44to get through it. I'm going to keep talking to you
- 23:45guys. I'm going to keep putting out
- 23:46episodes. Nothing's going to stop me, but
- 23:49I hope this episode inspires, especially if you're a young
- 23:52man, I hope that this inspired you to get ahead of these things
- 23:55so you don't end up someday in future.
- 23:58Regret, you know, that's a huge thing.
- 23:59It's like regret, dude. When you start getting older,
- 24:02it's like, man, if I had done so many things different, Don't be
- 24:06that. Don't do that.
- 24:07Know what you should be doing and just do it now while you
- 24:09have time, while you have the chance.
- 24:11There is no someday. Someday is either I did
- 24:15everything that I should have done and I live a super awesome
- 24:18life now, or someday as man, I wish I had done all of that when
- 24:22I was younger because my life would be so much better than it
- 24:24is right now. That is future regret.
- 24:26Save yourself from future regret.
- 24:28But yeah man, get out there. Kill it.
- 24:30Level up every aspect of your life, a life of overflowing
- 24:33abundance away to you. On the other side of you
- 24:35deciding to make the switch. Make the change and level up
- 24:38every aspect of your life, a life of overflowing abundance
- 24:42away to you. There is a great calling and a
- 24:44purpose for you in this life. You listening to this right now.
