0:26
Speaker 1: How you doing Arrow, Santino. You've nailed it with this book.
0:29
Speaker 1: I mean it is so authentic. I'm a third down
0:32
Speaker 1: in martial arts, and if you're not learning anything in
0:35
Speaker 1: class besides hitting, punching, blocking, and falling, you're doing it
0:38
Speaker 1: wrong then, and you can tell that you have learned
0:41
Speaker 1: a lot from your masters.
0:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate that. You know, it's it's going punching
0:47
Speaker 2: and kicking is an easy part, right, It's waking up early,
0:51
Speaker 2: going to bed the night before to make sure that
0:53
Speaker 2: you're there and ready and able to learn. You know,
0:56
Speaker 2: that's the hard part. So often.
1:00
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, I was gonna say you say it right
1:01
Speaker 1: there in your title. I mean you say you know,
1:03
Speaker 1: kick ass in everything that you do. I don't think
1:05
Speaker 1: the average person understands. That means the business world, That
1:08
Speaker 1: means in your community where you can go out there
1:10
Speaker 1: and you can have a you know, just the discipline
1:12
Speaker 1: in life is so important, and you remind not only
1:15
Speaker 1: the martial artists, but you remind those in the everyday
1:17
Speaker 1: world that hey, look, there is a better path if
1:20
Speaker 1: you choose to walk it.
1:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, success is success. It doesn't matter if you're an athlete,
1:25
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter if you're trying to get good grades,
1:27
Speaker 2: doesn't matter if you're trying to start a business or
1:30
Speaker 2: do research in science. Success is success and all the
1:34
Speaker 2: fundamental tenants are the same. It's doing. It's being disciplined
1:39
Speaker 2: to do the thing again and again and again without
1:43
Speaker 2: getting distracted. That's what too many people do, is they
1:45
Speaker 2: get distracted and then they quit. It's keeping focus on
1:48
Speaker 2: the goal. And that's success in anything we do.
1:52
Speaker 1: Isn't that Because we get swayed by other people's reasons
1:55
Speaker 1: why they're in class, and so it's almost like we're
1:57
Speaker 1: trying to keep up with the Joneses. Well, I just
1:59
Speaker 1: want to get up there with Jim, because Jim's got
2:01
Speaker 1: is his brown belt right now, and I'm down here
2:03
Speaker 1: with my Yellow Belt or even in the everyday world,
2:05
Speaker 1: we just feel like that we're always trying to catch
2:07
Speaker 1: up with somebody. It's like, no pay attention to your
2:09
Speaker 1: own life.
2:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, I say it all the time. We have
2:14
Speaker 2: to reach our own personal ceiling. Our ceiling is different.
2:17
Speaker 2: Everyone's ceiling is different. Academically, some people are really intelligent
2:21
Speaker 2: and some people aren't as intelligent. You know, Physically, some
2:24
Speaker 2: people can jump forty five inches in the air and
2:27
Speaker 2: some can jump ten. But the person that can jump
2:30
Speaker 2: ten inches in the air, if they work really, really,
2:32
Speaker 2: really hard, they can jump eleven or twelve. But there's
2:38
Speaker 2: the analogy. We've heard this all the time. Who's faster
2:40
Speaker 2: a sharker a cheetah? Right, It's like, well, are we
2:43
Speaker 2: in the water? Are we on land? And that's the
2:46
Speaker 2: thing is people are looking at other successful people and
2:49
Speaker 2: going I can never achieve that. It's like, well, maybe
2:52
Speaker 2: you can't, but you can achieve a lot more than
2:54
Speaker 2: where you're at. And we have to find a way
2:57
Speaker 2: to be as successful as we can be and whatever
2:59
Speaker 2: and ever that we are trying to achieve. And we
3:03
Speaker 2: look at other people, and we look at our neighbors
3:05
Speaker 2: and oh, they've got a new you know, escalade, Well
3:08
Speaker 2: I want that. It's like, well, you should be happy
3:12
Speaker 2: with just getting a new camera. You know, you know
3:15
Speaker 2: you're not gonna you can't afford the escalade, So don't
3:17
Speaker 2: don't reach for the escalade, reach for the car that
3:19
Speaker 2: you can get. And do you look at the mirror.
3:23
Speaker 2: The mirror is the only person that you need to
3:25
Speaker 2: compare yourself with.
3:26
Speaker 1: See, I'm so glad that you said that, because I've
3:28
Speaker 1: written about that a lot, about the power of the
3:31
Speaker 1: mirror versus the power of the window. And I've always
3:33
Speaker 1: called the window a liar because a window will lie
3:36
Speaker 1: to you about the weather conditions outside. You walk out there,
3:39
Speaker 1: you freeze your butt off, and it's like what happened here?
3:41
Speaker 1: And that's what I love about your book Fight Ready,
3:43
Speaker 1: is that you give us that honest approach of keep
3:46
Speaker 1: your eyes open and be honest with yourself.
3:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to because if you're doing anything for
3:52
Speaker 2: anybody else, you're gonna fail. Because when things get hard,
3:58
Speaker 2: all like out side, you know, influences go away. Even
4:04
Speaker 2: in fighting. I see it so often. I see people
4:08
Speaker 2: getting hit and they're in a bad position and somebody
4:11
Speaker 2: is on top of them. Just beating them, and you
4:14
Speaker 2: see it. You see it all the time when people
4:16
Speaker 2: decide they're done and they want out, and then you
4:19
Speaker 2: see people who just keep continuing to fight. And the
4:23
Speaker 2: people that keep continuing to fight, I mean, their brains
4:26
Speaker 2: are being you know, shattered inside their skull and their
4:29
Speaker 2: jaws hanging off, and there's blood everywhere, and they just
4:33
Speaker 2: keep fighting and fighting and fighting. Those people are doing
4:35
Speaker 2: it for themselves and the people that quit when things
4:39
Speaker 2: get hard. If you're doing anything for anybody else, whether
4:42
Speaker 2: it's money, whether it's you know, family members, whether it's
4:46
Speaker 2: for fame, you're going to quit when things get hard.
4:50
Speaker 1: Did you ever have one of those bouts or one
4:52
Speaker 1: of those matches where something went unexpectedly wrong and you
4:56
Speaker 1: just sat there and you looked at the ref going
4:58
Speaker 1: is it even there anymore? Because I remember getting kicked.
5:00
Speaker 1: It was a turning hook kick that got me right
5:02
Speaker 1: across the nose. I thought the dude ripped my nose
5:05
Speaker 1: completely off my face and I could not tell if
5:08
Speaker 1: my nose was even there anymore.
5:10
Speaker 2: Did you?
5:10
Speaker 1: How do you deal with that and to move beyond that,
5:13
Speaker 1: knowing that the rest of your life you're going to
5:15
Speaker 1: face a lot of those walls in Dangers. Yeah, I was.
5:18
Speaker 2: Actually I was on The Ultimate Fighter and so I
5:22
Speaker 2: was fighting. I was supposed to be on the second season,
5:24
Speaker 2: and when I went in for the medicals, they found
5:26
Speaker 2: a brain aneurysm, and so I was told that I
5:29
Speaker 2: would never fight again. My career was over. I was done,
5:33
Speaker 2: and so I went and had brain surgery. I don't
5:35
Speaker 2: know a year and a half later, whenever I was
5:37
Speaker 2: able to afford it with medical insurance, and then I
5:40
Speaker 2: started training again and I actually got approved cleared to
5:44
Speaker 2: fight again, and so I don't know a year or
5:47
Speaker 2: two later after being approved, I was in the Ultimate
5:50
Speaker 2: Fighter in the UFC and we had to fight to
5:53
Speaker 2: get into the house to even compete, and I was
5:55
Speaker 2: fighting a guy who was a three time I think
5:57
Speaker 2: he was a D two or D three national wrestling champion.
6:00
Speaker 2: He looked like a mini pony. He was just just
6:01
Speaker 2: a horse of a human, and he took me down
6:04
Speaker 2: and was just beating me for five minutes, just elbowing
6:07
Speaker 2: my skull for five minutes, and the ref didn't stop it,
6:10
Speaker 2: and I was panicked because I was like, oh my gosh,
6:12
Speaker 2: I'm going to die. My brain, my brain, what do
6:14
Speaker 2: I do, And I was just kind of paralyzed with
6:18
Speaker 2: the fear of that aneurysm, and I just got beat
6:21
Speaker 2: up for five minutes and the ref didn't stop the fight,
6:23
Speaker 2: and I went back to the corner and my coach
6:26
Speaker 2: at the time, Gastavo, said he's like, hey man, you
6:30
Speaker 2: gotta fight, Like what are we doing here? And I
6:33
Speaker 2: was like, I am going to die if I don't
6:36
Speaker 2: get if I don't beat this guy, because the ref's
6:39
Speaker 2: not going to stop me. And so right after that,
6:42
Speaker 2: I was like, I have to go in and I
6:43
Speaker 2: went out through a flying knee, took the guy down
6:46
Speaker 2: and choked him out. But there was that moment right
6:49
Speaker 2: there it was like I need to do this or
6:51
Speaker 2: I will not get out of here. And you know,
6:54
Speaker 2: that was a life changing moment.
6:56
Speaker 1: One of the things that inspires me most about your
6:58
Speaker 1: book Fight Ready, is the fact that as as martial artists,
7:02
Speaker 1: it is we continue to grow on the black belt path.
7:04
Speaker 1: The thing is is that everybody is still a white
7:06
Speaker 1: belt and you are the instructor and you must meet
7:09
Speaker 1: them at their level. And I feel that in this
7:12
Speaker 1: book that as a black belt, you're going to get
7:14
Speaker 1: a lot more out of it. But even as a
7:15
Speaker 1: white belt you're going to get a lot of things
7:17
Speaker 1: out of this as well. You really do speak to
7:19
Speaker 1: every level of the journey growing forward.
7:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wanted everybody to be able to relate to
7:25
Speaker 2: this book. My children. I have a thirteen year old
7:28
Speaker 2: and a fifteen year old, both boys, and during the
7:31
Speaker 2: summer we always make them read, like because otherwise, what
7:34
Speaker 2: are you gonna do? Just play video games for ten
7:35
Speaker 2: hours a day, So I have to read for thirty minutes.
7:38
Speaker 2: I have to do con academy, some maths and some
7:40
Speaker 2: other stuff for thirty minutes, and then it's like, all right,
7:42
Speaker 2: now you can go play. You can go, you know,
7:44
Speaker 2: jump on some video games and whatever. And one of
7:47
Speaker 2: the things that I'm going to have both of them
7:48
Speaker 2: read is actually this book over the summer, thirty minutes
7:52
Speaker 2: a day. Because they're both athletes, they both want to compete,
7:56
Speaker 2: they both want to be successful. And if my thirteen
7:59
Speaker 2: in my f fifteen year old can get something out
8:02
Speaker 2: of this book and understand it, then anybody can. And
8:05
Speaker 2: that's what I want is I want everybody to be
8:07
Speaker 2: able to improve themselves, whether it's mental or physical, to
8:11
Speaker 2: achieve the most that they can achieve and reach their
8:14
Speaker 2: personal ceiling.
8:16
Speaker 1: And to grow with it and to teach it. I mean,
8:17
Speaker 1: because that's the thing about it is that if you're
8:19
Speaker 1: not teaching it, what did you learn along the way? Yeah,
8:23
Speaker 1: we've got to.
8:24
Speaker 2: I think we're I think we're obligated as humans when
8:27
Speaker 2: we achieve any sort of success, we have to show
8:31
Speaker 2: others how we achieve that success, because if we just
8:34
Speaker 2: keep that knowledge to ourselves, like, what fun is that? Like?
8:37
Speaker 2: What fun is it to be like rich and not
8:41
Speaker 2: share the wealth and not bring the people up around you?
8:46
Speaker 2: What do they say? Rising tides lift all ships? And knowledge?
8:50
Speaker 2: It is such an important function of where we are
8:54
Speaker 2: as humans that sharing that knowledge. It's it's like we're
8:58
Speaker 2: giving everybody money.
9:00
Speaker 1: Please do not move. There's more with Santino DiFranco coming
9:03
Speaker 1: up next. The name of the book Fight Ready, How
9:08
Speaker 1: to Get Fit, Lose weight and kick ass and everything
9:11
Speaker 1: you do. We are back with MMA Fighter Santino DiFranco.
9:16
Speaker 1: You give kudos to Kamala Kirk and Tracy Cortez. Good job, dude,
9:19
Speaker 1: because you know, you got to recognize these people as
9:21
Speaker 1: the mentors that they are because they need that inspiration too.
9:24
Speaker 1: They still have those valley floors like the rest of us.
9:26
Speaker 1: And it's little things like this that become huge things
9:29
Speaker 1: in their own personal lives.
9:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, Tracy. You know, I've trained Tracy since she was
9:34
Speaker 2: an amateur, and you know, I've watched her grow up
9:37
Speaker 2: and I've watched her progress and become successful. And I
9:41
Speaker 2: remember before she made her UFCJB, she was panicking. She
9:44
Speaker 2: was freaking out. She didn't think that she could do it.
9:47
Speaker 2: She was like mentally like she We had a conversation says,
9:50
Speaker 2: I can't do it. I'm not ready, I'm not ready.
9:52
Speaker 2: I'm not ready. And I told her, I said, you're
9:54
Speaker 2: absolutely ready. I said, with all of the weight that
9:57
Speaker 2: you have on you right now, I said, I pile
10:00
Speaker 2: on a thousand more pounds on top, because I know
10:04
Speaker 2: that you're still going to get it done. And seeing
10:07
Speaker 2: these people become successful, Kamuela and Tracy are literally why
10:11
Speaker 2: I stayed in the sport as long as I did.
10:13
Speaker 2: I at one point had received a couple of really
10:16
Speaker 2: good offers to get out of MMA and to go
10:18
Speaker 2: do some other things, and I almost took them. And
10:22
Speaker 2: the reason I didn't is because of Tracy and Kamuela.
10:25
Speaker 2: I said, I have got to see these two through.
10:28
Speaker 2: I've got to get them to the UFC. This is
10:30
Speaker 2: their goal, this is what they need to do, and
10:32
Speaker 2: it was my obligation to get them there. And I
10:35
Speaker 2: got them both there and I was like, Okay, now
10:37
Speaker 2: I'm good. If they stay there, it's on them, like
10:40
Speaker 2: I did my part, you know, but I had to
10:43
Speaker 2: do that, and I had to see those guys through,
10:45
Speaker 2: and I've had to see it through with a lot
10:48
Speaker 2: of the fighters because these are husbands, these are father
10:52
Speaker 2: you know, fathers to children. These are good humans that
10:56
Speaker 2: need help to get to where they need to go,
11:00
Speaker 2: to support their families, to achieve their goals. And that's
11:03
Speaker 2: always been a lot of fun and I take personal
11:06
Speaker 2: pride in that.
11:07
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and you know how it is because you
11:08
Speaker 1: being an instructor and I'm may be going too far here,
11:10
Speaker 1: but you know how it is. You've got the perfect
11:12
Speaker 1: student that's still in high school or they're in middle school.
11:15
Speaker 1: But the problem is, though, once they graduate, it feels
11:17
Speaker 1: like that's when we need to be in there with
11:19
Speaker 1: the disciplines because they're going out there into the real
11:22
Speaker 1: world and they're making real world mistakes, and it's like,
11:25
Speaker 1: oh my god, am I supposed to let them make
11:27
Speaker 1: that real world mistake and let them grow from it,
11:29
Speaker 1: Because I'm kind of pulled in all directions with that.
11:32
Speaker 1: Because our students, when they grow beyond their education, they
11:36
Speaker 1: think they can take on the world. Yeah.
11:40
Speaker 2: I've seen so many people who have had situations like
11:45
Speaker 2: I had growing up. And I had kind of a
11:47
Speaker 2: you know, it was a rougher upbringing, you know, and
11:52
Speaker 2: I didn't really have a lot. And I see these
11:54
Speaker 2: kids who don't have a lot, but they want something.
11:58
Speaker 2: They want there's a goal and there's a drive, but
12:01
Speaker 2: they don't necessarily know how to get there because they've
12:04
Speaker 2: never really had the adults in their lives to teach
12:08
Speaker 2: them good habits, to teach them how to do this stuff,
12:10
Speaker 2: to teach them how to be good humans and functional humans.
12:14
Speaker 2: And so I've always had we only know what we know, right,
12:18
Speaker 2: and we're only exposed to what we've been exposed to.
12:22
Speaker 2: And you see some of these people and you want
12:26
Speaker 2: to guide them because you see where they're at, and
12:28
Speaker 2: you see that they're good people, and you see that
12:30
Speaker 2: they can be successful, and you know, just like our kids,
12:34
Speaker 2: like you said, like, my fifteen year old knows everything
12:37
Speaker 2: there is to know about everything on the planet, right,
12:40
Speaker 2: but we as adults know they don't really know what
12:43
Speaker 2: they're doing and they're really not ready for the world.
12:46
Speaker 2: And you know, I think we have to. I think
12:49
Speaker 2: we have to help teach the youth, whether it's a
12:52
Speaker 2: fifteen year old kid or a twenty three year old kid,
12:56
Speaker 2: if they haven't had the guidance in their life, we
12:58
Speaker 2: have to guide them.
13:00
Speaker 1: And and to me, you know where that starts when
13:02
Speaker 1: they go, oh, show me a martial arts move? Why?
13:05
Speaker 1: Why why do you want to do that? You know,
13:07
Speaker 1: are you going to incorporate it into your job to
13:09
Speaker 1: where you can, you know, have a better day and
13:11
Speaker 1: you can become a better leader through it. And they go, no, man,
13:14
Speaker 1: I just want to kick someone's ass. No, that whoa, whoa, whoa.
13:16
Speaker 1: That's not what we're trained And that's what I love
13:18
Speaker 1: about your book. That's not how we're trained and what
13:21
Speaker 1: we're trained to do.
13:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're It all depends on the goal. I say
13:27
Speaker 2: this again and again and again. The goal is the
13:30
Speaker 2: defining everything. And like you said, why do you want
13:34
Speaker 2: to learn that? Well, the why is the answer to
13:37
Speaker 2: the why is the goal, Well, I want to achieve this,
13:40
Speaker 2: I want to do that. I want to do this.
13:42
Speaker 2: The goal and if we have a goal, everything else
13:46
Speaker 2: around us will gravitate toward that goal. If we have
13:49
Speaker 2: a negative goal, if we want to do bad things
13:51
Speaker 2: in life, we will find a way to do those
13:53
Speaker 2: bad things. And if we want to do good things
13:55
Speaker 2: in life, and that is our goal, our personal goal,
13:58
Speaker 2: not for outside you know, of money or fame or
14:01
Speaker 2: to make our parents happy, but our actual goal. Everything
14:06
Speaker 2: that we do is going to go into that goal.
14:08
Speaker 2: And we will move mountains to reach that.
14:11
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you're speaking my language. Oh my god. Yeah,
14:14
Speaker 1: because it's sobbing. IM used to look at me and say,
14:16
Speaker 1: when you take down the mountain, it's one rock at
14:20
Speaker 1: a time, one push up at a time, dude. And
14:23
Speaker 1: you know what, in the business world, that's exactly how
14:26
Speaker 1: I handle stress or anxiety. One rock at a time.
14:30
Speaker 1: And see, and your book is all about that.
14:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, I say that. I don't say one rock at
14:36
Speaker 2: a time, I say one step at a time, because yeah,
14:39
Speaker 2: I use the analogy of a race. And you know,
14:42
Speaker 2: we all start strong, we're all motivated and happy and
14:44
Speaker 2: excited to get going, but that excitement wears off, and
14:48
Speaker 2: you know, the last you know, five percent, the last
14:51
Speaker 2: mile of your marathon, we're all excited to hey, we're motivated.
14:54
Speaker 2: We can push through. It's that middle ground where you've
14:58
Speaker 2: just got to keep your head down and go one
14:59
Speaker 2: foot in front of the other, one foot in front
15:01
Speaker 2: of the other. And when you've gone far enough to think, hey,
15:03
Speaker 2: I should look up and see if that goal is insight,
15:07
Speaker 2: zip it. Put your head back down and just keep
15:09
Speaker 2: going one foot in front of the other, one foot
15:11
Speaker 2: in front of the other. And if we do that
15:14
Speaker 2: over and over and over again, eventually we find success.
15:17
Speaker 2: You know, if you put a dollar in the bank
15:20
Speaker 2: every day, not one hundred dollars because oh, we can't
15:23
Speaker 2: all afford one hundred dollars, and that adds up too quickly.
15:26
Speaker 2: If we put a dollar in the bank every day,
15:28
Speaker 2: and we do that again and again and again and again,
15:30
Speaker 2: eventually we have a lot more money, and we have
15:33
Speaker 2: compounding interest. And these things occur in bulk and mass,
15:37
Speaker 2: but not one year, five year, ten years, it's twenty thirty,
15:41
Speaker 2: forty years later that interest explodes. But we've got to
15:46
Speaker 2: put a dollar in a day. We've got to do
15:48
Speaker 2: a little bit every single day. And when things get hard,
15:52
Speaker 2: we can't panic. You just got to wake up and
15:55
Speaker 2: keep putting one foot in front of the other. And
15:57
Speaker 2: when things are easy and we like the way that
15:59
Speaker 2: we're going, don't sprint, don't get excited, don't know because
16:03
Speaker 2: we're going to run out of energy. We're going to
16:05
Speaker 2: run out of guess. Just keep one foot in front
16:07
Speaker 2: of the other and keep pace.
16:09
Speaker 1: Is that the reason that you start off chapter one
16:11
Speaker 1: and of all chapters, and it's the best place you
16:13
Speaker 1: talk about the delusion because we have these delusions of
16:16
Speaker 1: what it's supposed to be and what we want to do.
16:18
Speaker 1: We have these goals, but we have this delusion we
16:20
Speaker 1: think we're going to take this shortcut. No, if you're
16:23
Speaker 1: going to become a grand master, whatever you do in life,
16:25
Speaker 1: you got to do it, like you said, one step
16:27
Speaker 1: at a time. Yeah, you have to.
16:30
Speaker 2: You have to be delusional and you have to do
16:32
Speaker 2: things you know momentarily because if we're not delusional, we're
16:36
Speaker 2: never going to achieve anything right, because the law of
16:40
Speaker 2: averages says that we're going to be average, because that's
16:45
Speaker 2: how the world works. I mean, there's literally a mathematical
16:48
Speaker 2: law that states we're not going to be exceptional, and
16:52
Speaker 2: you have to fight against that average. The law of
16:56
Speaker 2: averages is your enemy. If you want to be successful,
16:59
Speaker 2: you've got to for your way through that. And if
17:02
Speaker 2: we let everybody look, when we're kids, right, all our
17:05
Speaker 2: parents say, oh, you could be an astronaut, you can
17:07
Speaker 2: be president, you can be this, like they give us
17:10
Speaker 2: these hopes and dreams. Then as we're graduating in high school,
17:13
Speaker 2: everyone's like, well, you better get a job, don't be
17:15
Speaker 2: an artist, Like you're not gonna make it. Like that's silly.
17:18
Speaker 2: Don't you know you're not gonna make the NFL, You're
17:21
Speaker 2: not gonna make it to D one sports, You're not
17:23
Speaker 2: gonna If we listen to all of the stuff that said,
17:26
Speaker 2: we're not gonna make it wherever we want to go,
17:28
Speaker 2: we're not going to make it anywhere. So we've got
17:30
Speaker 2: to fight against that. The least little bit of glimmer
17:34
Speaker 2: of hope that we have is to think we can
17:37
Speaker 2: achieve it, and then at least we're going to work
17:39
Speaker 2: toward that. We might not achieve it, but we're going
17:41
Speaker 2: to get is a heck of a lot higher and
17:44
Speaker 2: closer to that goal than we will if we think
17:46
Speaker 2: we can't, what do they say, shoot for the stars,
17:49
Speaker 2: you just might hit the moon or so.
17:51
Speaker 1: True, so true. This is one of those books where
17:53
Speaker 1: that readers need to tell their doctor that they're doing it.
17:55
Speaker 1: And the reason why is because my doctor does that.
17:57
Speaker 1: Now what book are you reading? Because he knows. I
18:00
Speaker 1: take this stuff very literal, especially when it comes to
18:02
Speaker 1: losing weight. If you if their doctor knows what they're
18:05
Speaker 1: doing inside this book, then he's not going to sit
18:07
Speaker 1: there and say, well, I have to take this test.
18:09
Speaker 1: I have to take this test. I have to take
18:10
Speaker 1: this test. Know that you're changing your mind, body, and
18:13
Speaker 1: soul and share it with those that you hire to
18:16
Speaker 1: take care of your mind, body and soul.
18:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want, like you said, with your doctor,
18:22
Speaker 2: what is your doctor saying, what are you doing? If
18:26
Speaker 2: you want to be successful, if you want to lose weight,
18:28
Speaker 2: if you want to get strong, you have to just
18:30
Speaker 2: do stuff in moderation again and again and again and again.
18:34
Speaker 2: And if you were to bring this book to your doctor,
18:37
Speaker 2: he would he or she would read it and go,
18:40
Speaker 2: oh wow, this makes sense. It's nothing crazy, it's nothing.
18:45
Speaker 2: What's funny is it's not instagrammable. You know, like it's
18:48
Speaker 2: not overly controversial, it's it's like simple in the sense
18:53
Speaker 2: where we're not trying to reinvent the wheel. We're trying
18:55
Speaker 2: to bring you guys back to what actually works. And
18:59
Speaker 2: the gimmicks and these fad diets and these crazy workouts
19:03
Speaker 2: and honestly, you know, not to put them down, but
19:06
Speaker 2: the date, the David Goggins intensity of the world. Look,
19:10
Speaker 2: that's really instagrammable. That's not realistic for most people, and
19:15
Speaker 2: it's too much, and honestly, like, you don't need to
19:18
Speaker 2: be David Goggins to get in shape, to be successful,
19:22
Speaker 2: to have a good family, to have a good life,
19:25
Speaker 2: you need to have moderation and consistency, and moderation is
19:29
Speaker 2: the key to success. Again. The tortoise and the hair
19:32
Speaker 2: who won the race?
19:33
Speaker 1: All right?
19:34
Speaker 2: The hair went too fast, too soon, tired out, took
19:37
Speaker 2: a nap, and that tortoise just one foot in front
19:39
Speaker 2: of the other, one rocket a time, you know, ended
19:42
Speaker 2: up winning the race.
19:43
Speaker 1: Dude, you got to come back to this show anytime
19:45
Speaker 1: in the future. Twenty minutes with you is never going
19:47
Speaker 1: to be enough. Man, not with two martial artists.

Speaker 2: Hell no, man ah I appreciate it. Thanks for having me,
19:53
