Speaker 2:No kidding oh shit, it's bad y'all.
Speaker 1:It's bad, y'all it's bad. But hey, if y'all didn't know, if y'all don't follow the Instagram, shit, we've been drinking what Patron Cristallion? I don't even know how to focus data.
Speaker 2:Too many shots talking about that coconut, my the 1800, that damn the 1800 goddamn coconut.
Speaker 1:Goddamn, go down smooth 1800 coconut. Hey, if y'all want to sponsor us, reach out to it, but anyway, but shit, hey, tell me what the fuck y'all got going on. Because if y'all don't know, shit, all these motherfuckers on this goddamn couch right now a businessman and they understand what family means in business, because without family in business, you can't grow to be bigger than what you are. Because it's based on a team, it's based on growth, it's based on all these things and shit, hey, this is why we call it raw, uncut and edit bro, hey, shit, hey, as long as he ain't Got them throwing up On my goddamn floor, we okay. So, oh, bro, you good bro. That's why we call it Raw, uncut and edited.
Speaker 1:Man, fuck these folks, they gonna listen to it Regardless, hey. But I wanna tell y'all I appreciate y'all listening. Shit Cause, this month we broke 5100 streams. Let's go and shit. Like I told somebody Earlier today, while I was getting my hair cut, I didn't even think I was going to have 100 listeners, but now, shit, you tell me I was some nigga. We in 299 cities, 40-something countries, that's big, that's cold.
Speaker 3:That's a company.
Speaker 5:You feel me, that's like a team.
Speaker 3:That's like your sense. That's how you start off. Like you know what I'm saying. You gonna always look back to your first ever videos. You know what I'm saying first ever podcast that you ever dropped. You gonna see who stayed down, kept it real and like who showed love from the jump. Like you always gonna look at that but showed me that. I remember that like I peeped everybody that you know I'm saying keep it real and show love that's some boy, that's just, that's some boy there who was really being real from the jungle.
Speaker 3:Then when your blessings do come, you know the bless, you know I'm saying yeah, you right, you right.
Speaker 1:Hey. This come from the niggas with stars and shooting stars in their hairlines. Though, hey bro, when that nigga showed me that shit, well, I felt like a bitch in that motherfucking goddamn passenger seat man. Hey, straight up, like when I saw, I was like damn shit. Hey, I wonder how a female feeling in that motherfucker as soon as she sees Susan Starrs, I wish upon a star.
Speaker 5:Goddamn, I know I'm getting some dick tonight, I'm just saying goddamn it make you feel like it's okay to be a groupie when you see them stars for real that's just how it is.
Speaker 1:I mean, but I mean, hey, but that shows me that entrepreneurship and hard work goes a long way, because when he's dealing with individuals that he came up with or he's cool with and all this, all this in tune, because you can't make it alone. Because, like my daddy used to tell me, if you got five niggas in the room, the only thing they want to do is drink smoke and not do shit. You're gonna be that six nigga. But if you got motherfuckers that are ambitious, growth and everything in between, you're gonna you're gonna be like this shit, what else?
Speaker 1:can I do, man, what else can I goddamn? Grow and be, but I mean, it's just like what the fuck am I doing? Being stagnant, because in stagnant water there's no goddamn, there's no life. So if you don't, if you don't, if you can, if you ain't surrounding yourself with individuals that are growing and progressive, who is you exactly.
Speaker 3:I ain't gonna lie. I can kind of relate to that, though, because it was at one point where I can't tell that over the goddamn mic man.
Speaker 3:Go ahead. But yeah, it was a point to where it was in my life where I didn't know what I was doing. You know, I'm saying I didn't know how I was gonna continue to keep doing what I'm doing and like I was just kind of getting discouraged. But then, like you know, I'm saying these two right here, they content creators like you know, they doing good for themselves.
Speaker 3:It was a point of time where I would think that certain shit like I couldn't do, like I was just like, nah, I can't do that. But then, like seeing them like get, like you know, I'm saying get paid from again, like views from it, and just like being consistent. And, like you know, I'm saying like getting good numbers on it and I seen, like it was actually real, to like actually, like you know, I'm saying, start something and do that. They kind of inspired me to kind of like start my own channel, you know, start doing social media. Because at first, like I was looking at it like nah, folks going to look at me this way, folks going to look at me that way, but them two right there like they dead serious, like they encouraged me to like start doing stuff like that. So I ain't going to lie like. You know what I'm saying day, bro. People's opinions not gonna matter, bro, because they not getting you paid by their opinion. That's a bar.
Speaker 3:You just gotta do what you wanna do like, especially if it's something that you seem like you'll enjoy doing. Do it, man, because it's like anything possible, bro. Anybody can blow up. It's just all on how consistent you is and the content that you pushing out, man. You just gotta be consistent with it, man, and love what you're doing like, because I've grown to know that and I'm gonna start getting back consistent like that. That's like my number one goal being consistent, because I know I can do it if I really like, put my mind to it and stuff like that.
Speaker 1:So that's something I feel like so, so, in other words, like the real thing, like my, like my stepfather used to tell me all the time blood don't make you family yeah it's the goals that you make to make you family, it's the bonds that you make to make you family, because a lot of times it's the individuals that you make family family.
Speaker 1:Because if you look at the individuals that you got them call your partners. If you're going through your bad times, your good times, whatever, they are there to pick you up and, like you said, right, like off top, like they influence you to be better. Because if you, if you hang around a bunch of bum ass niggas, like straight up, they're gonna, they're gonna encourage you to be a bomb. But since you got, we ain't going to say role models. We're going to say, because role models is what you look up to, we're going to say your partner, if my partner's a goddamn doing good and they got this motion going on, shit, nigga, I need to pay my part.
Speaker 1:Like I mean real shit, real, because, like, I tell you, like this, if my partner didn't tell me, hey, niggas, you need to plug in with this nigga, you need to plug in with this nigga, I wouldn't, because I value that more than my cousins telling me this shit, my brothers telling me this shit, my brother's telling me shit, sister telling me shit because my partner hey, we've been through a thick and thin with each other, like he or no shit. Me and his daddy been through the worst of the worst together. I was there when nobody else believed in me, but his daddy did. And man, this man, been friends since June, like, like, like, like jet high, like I'm talking about infant high. So, with that belief coming in, it means more than me telling me oh shit, man, I got some nigga offline believing in me.
Speaker 1:That's like when you got your partners around you, like with Tony. Like when you got your partners around you, like with Tony O, when you got your partners around you believing in your music and tell you that's a banger. And what'd you say oh, bro, that ain't hitting. We're like, bro, you got it, bro, go you. That next one up, it make you go harder on it.
Speaker 4:It make me go crazy because I feel like I gotta. I feel like I gotta impress them and if I impressed, them, I ain't got nobody else to impress these.
Speaker 3:They're gonna follow that shit hard, for sure, that shit hard. You know what I'm saying one.
Speaker 5:One thing I could certainly vouch for is like so with with Quan, like I ain't gonna lie, it's crazy to see, like how much he's gone for sure. Like for him he the fear was what other people are gonna say. Like what, what, what, what other people gonna say about what you're doing and like the backlash you're gonna get. But like, once you actually jump into it and once you actually start you go outside just doing it, you realize that like, first of all, one nobody says anything to you. All the negative things that most people think that people are gonna say to them, like that's the stuff that never, that's the stuff that doesn't come to you. Like from my experience, I've experienced more love when you actually just go out and do it. It's like when you worry about what most people do today is like they, they build up worry in their head, like they build up situations on what they think people are going to say about them and they they think about different situations on how they think people are going to relate or react to the content that they're producing. But really, at the end of the day, people are either going to love it or they're not going to say anything. Before you get hate. I feel like you're either going to get those people that are going to love it or you're going to get those people that are just going to pass by. And I feel like, with with Quan, with him, it's like he realized that, like you just got to do it, bro, and by him doing it, he's seeing the numbers now, like he's seeing the love, he's seeing the appreciation that people are appreciating him for, like putting out the content that he's supposed to be putting out, cause a lot of people can relate to Quan, and like where he come from, like his background.
Speaker 5:You see what I'm saying. Like, so a lot of people are like dang, like Quan doing this. I can do this too. Quan is literally the same. Like if you thinking that you can't do it because you're afraid of what other people are going to think, look at SRT Quan, bro. He's literally like the image of that of somebody who don't want to do, not saying that, and you know. You know what I'm saying. That's real, though. Like you get what I'm saying. Like, and it's crazy now that, like he's actually doing it, like and that can be the case for so many other people, like so many of y'all can see the progress that you want to see if you was to actually do it and start worrying about what other people got to say, because, at the end of the day, those aren't you know'm saying, those aren't the people that are going to get you paid. You see what I'm saying, if that made sense to y'all.
Speaker 1:No, but you know it makes sense because a lot of times, like we were talking before we even because, like y'all don't understand, like when we we sitting up here taking shots before we even start the pod, sitting up here taking shots before we even start the pod, and a lot of people don't understand the conversations that we have and we gotta say oh, because we want, oh, but you gotta understand, like the conversation we have prior to even the pod jumping off, even like we gotta say this shit for y'all because shit it takes time and to culture certain conversations that we have. Because a lot of people don't understand that even when the cameras aren't rolling, we still have conversations, we still fuck with people that we fuck with. We still we still do shit that we do to make sure that things are met because, like, like you were saying, like to promote srt kwan or tonio or caleb or Caleb it's goals because we want to see our friends that we consider family, win. All in all, you get what I'm saying. Because a lot of people don't understand the notions that we make. You get what I'm saying Because when we grow, we grow together, because we don't want to see our partners, our friends, lose in a bigger aspect of things. You get what I'm saying right, because a lot of people don't understand.
Speaker 1:When we win, we win together, but people I think people lose the ideals and certain notions that we, that we drive for to be bigger, because, like on the road to wealth, they forget who they came up with. You know what I'm saying, because and, and and real ideals. You're supposed to take your family with you. It's not and, and, what I was taught when I was growing up. Blood doesn't make you family, it's the bonds that you make that makes you family, because blood will fuck you over quicker than anybody else.
Speaker 1:But I'm sorry y'all shit that's called daddy duty, real life. If y'all don't understand shit, I'm a full time, I'm a full time dad at the same time, because I'm an entrepreneur, I'm a full time worker, I'm a college student, all that shit. But you gotta understand shit, don't stop. That's like when somebody told me hey, when you free nigga, my life ain't free, my time ain't free. Because if you look at, your time ain't free, your time is valuable. No matter what you're doing, you're doing something to benefit the greater wealth you get. What I'm saying it's, it's something to put to propel me to be better than what I was yesterday. I mean shit.
Speaker 5:I thought the overall idea every day to be figuring out how can you get at least better every day. You see what I'm saying every day. You feel what I'm saying Like every day, you should be figuring out how you can progress in whatever field you're trying to grow in, and I feel like what most people feel, like how most people think, is that they don't see big progress automatically out the gate and they don't see the progress that they're making. They don't see the small wins and a lot of for one. A lot of people don't appreciate the small wins that you get when you own, when you own a journey of whatever that journey is like.
Speaker 5:You gotta, you gotta understand the small wins that you, that you what's the word I'm looking for? You gotta, you gotta, appreciate the small wins. It's basically what I, what I'm trying to put out there and that's that's because, like by you getting 1% better already, 1% every day, ass up. I'm gonna just say that I'm gonna let that be known and that 1% is more than that 1%. Like by you getting better, 1% is more than that 1%. Like by you getting better 1% every day is like you are ahead of like a huge mass of individuals, because there are a lot of people who are, like you already said, stagnant. You know what I'm saying? That's stagnant and that was that was a point that you, that was something that you said, and that was a point that you.
Speaker 1:That was something that you said, and to be stagnant has no life, like to be in a pine box, that means you're dead. For somebody to say, oh, that's the guy that does X, y and Z. The way I view that is if you can say I just do this, I'm dead Because there's no growth. In between that, you get what I'm saying. Like, oh, like. Like I put up, like while I was getting my hair cut early, man, me and my partner were talking about some shit.
Speaker 1:The chick that got down go work a nine to five. Then she go work only fans. Then she sell sick feet pics. Then she sell underwear. Then she sell this, then she sell do this man to me.
Speaker 1:Shit y'all done, winning for sure. Because in my mind, shit y'all done. Got that y'all done. Hustle y'all done. Got that shot Y'all done. Hustled Y'all done. Grind, because somebody gonna want to smell that pussy, somebody gonna want to got down see them feet and they gonna pay for it For sure.
Speaker 1:But in retrospect, the guy that's got down, he work in a mechanic shop but on the side tip he doing goddamn brakes and oil changes. On the side he doing spark plugs, he doing ignition coils. He doing all that shit on the side. He winning because what he's doing is taking the shit he learned, on one hand, and to benefit, the other hand, because no job is going to pay you what you're actually worth. What you got to do is take what they give you and apply it to real life situations. Therefore, when you apply the real life situations, then you say, okay, well, I can take this skill and add it to this skill. I can take this skill added to this skill. So it's like what, what the fuck can I gain from this place? Okay, I'm here for two years. Why the fuck am I still here for three, four, five, six years, 13 years, when I can take that shit and take it to another business and gain more benefit, or in retrospect, or take it to make my own company that I need to make to where? Okay, I learned this from Key, I learned this from SRT, I learned this from Caleb, I learned this from Tio, and I take that shit and I apply it to life because, okay, shit I might make. Okay, I just started this business, I might make five dollars. Guess what? Nigga? You winning because you took that goddamn knowledge and you applied it to a monetary value. And once you apply it to a monetary value. And now, shit, when I kick it to goddamn my two partners, they might help it pale even further.
Speaker 1:That's the bar, because now, shit, we can go, get on. Goddamn I'm going to drop us on shit. What a lot of people ain't going to like Ali Baba, ali Express, nigga. Hey, shit, we can go half on this pack. Oh shit, hey bro, shit, this clothing brand going to cost me goddamn $250 to goddamn get this load in Shit. So clothing brand going to cost me god damn $250 to god damn get this load in Shit. So this load going to cost me god damn $500, $600, $700. Hey, bro, I go half with you. Hey, this.
Speaker 1:Then the third is going to break down. This is what we're going to make, god damn, da-da-da-da-da. That's when you start. That's why you appreciate us being a family, because we're not greedy, because that's the same logic that we apply in hustle mentality, because that's the same thing that you apply. And when you grow and you try to gain certain knowledge and certain things, because you're trying to grow a brand, you're trying to grow a brand, you're trying to grow a business. That's why a lot of people don't fail to realize you can't make it by self. It takes a team to win they gotta be preached.
Speaker 5:They gotta be preached more. A team, a team is like essential to anything you're gonna do. I feel like a lot of people feel like they can do everything on their own, or some people feel like they have to do everything on their own. But how I look at it is, I mean, it's like with a team everything is just 100% smoother, everything flows better, everybody is in alignment and it's just like with a team. It just feels like to me, everything grows more rapidly.
Speaker 5:And to touch base on what you were mentioning about like a job and how some people are, how some people are able to like grasp the idea of working and taking something from that job, a lot of people are gonna shit on nine to fives nowadays. You feel like most people are gonna they'd rather be broke than work that nine to five, because that's not what they see in their, in their vision. You get what I'm saying, but how I look at it is, for one, you got your job and then you got work. Your job is your nine to five. What you go into, what you clock in, what you, the business that you helping another man grow, that's your job. And then you have your, which is the shit that you go to after your job, the business that you're building behind the scene, the business that you're working through after your job, or the skill that you're trying to grow after you're nine to five. That's your work and I feel like a lot of people have to grasp the idea that you're going to have to balance both, because, as an entrepreneur, a lot of people like to preach or say, oh, balance.
Speaker 5:I want to have a balanced life and, through my experience and through what I'm going through now, I feel like, as an entrepreneur, there is no true balance. I feel like you can get there as, as best best, you can include your family in your life and make sure you get to where you want to get to. But, to say it all, I feel like it's essential to get back to my point. It's just essential that you understand that there's no true balance as an entrepreneur. I feel like Because, as a real entrepreneur and as somebody who's really trying to build that legacy, or you really trying to set that foundation for your family, break that generational curse is how I take that responsibility upon my life that there is going to be no balance. You get what I'm saying. It's just going to be work and it's going to be consistency, and I've learned to enjoy life through chaos of business.
Speaker 5:As an entrepreneur, I feel like that's probably the best way to say that I've learned how to like, appreciate, and I like when it's when it's a lot of work that needs to be done. It's a lot of stuff that got to get done. I'd rather be busy and my schedule be full than me be sitting around and doing nothing, trying to figure out what the next thing to do is. You get what I'm saying and most people are going to preach that. You got to find that time to you know, relax and to figure out where you need to go next. But I just like the chaos. Like the chaos of an entrepreneur, the business of a startup, whatever that is, and most people are going to experience it and you're going to deal with it, how you're going to deal with it, but I enjoy it.
Speaker 1:The reason why I say I agree with the chaos is because I might have an idea at 3 o'clock in the morning, I might have an idea at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I might have a dream, or I might get woken up by my sleep and guess what? I'm going straight to my notepad and just drawing down some shit that's real. Or I might hit up on my partners and I just shoot them a regular text, because there's no consistency but there's always bleed. The reason why I say it is bleed is because, yeah, I might be at my nine to five, but guess what? I might. I might shoot you something that says, hey, bro, should I had this as a idea, even when I'm at my regular nine to five? Because a lot of people don't realize when you're an entrepreneur, that shit don't never, stop, never. And people think, oh well, you got a nine to five, then you got this. But people don't understand there's no separation a lot of times because, yeah, I'm working for, but you're only going to pay me enough to be comfortable to keep me coming back the next day. But my dreams and ambitions are bigger than what this fucking 95 is. Because a lot of people think, oh shit. Just because I'm in this motherfucker, I'm the top employee, I done got that employee of the year. This ain't me, because three months down the line you might pay the next nigga more than me, and now I'm sitting up here making less than this nigga that just came in and it's bullshit. So what you got going on? Oh, I got this going on. I got this going on. I got this going on Because, in my mind, this job is only temporary. My entrepreneurship is forever, literally because just because this, like, let's like, you go to the goddamn, like, like I say I say this a lot of times just because you go to an arab, the arab goddamn gas station, that motherfucker hit you with old new management every goddamn seven years.
Speaker 1:Because, guess what? His brother just took over that shit tax-free and he just took that money and put it into a hotel. He put into a liquor store. Because you got to understand perry's is a brand, harry's is a brand, the Hojo is a brand. He just took what you gave him and bought a brand to grow his entrepreneurship and just to give his cousin a leg foot in the game. Because now his hustle mentality is now I got to take this money to one of my cousins that's over in Albuquerque, whatever the fuck you want to call it. He's going to take that free cheese that the government is giving him and apply it. He's going to take that whopping amount of money that he ain't got to pay back to the motherfucking government to goddamn push his brain. You get what?
Speaker 5:I'm saying but you see, but do you see the difference between the a-rap community and, like you know, the jewish community, on how they all work together, how you mentioned the word brother and cousin, bro, they all got, they all like you see, them, like all their relatives and all their close people and the people that they grew up with and that you know, the people that they love, they do everything together and they put everybody on game.
Speaker 5:And I'm gonna say for one, that's one thing, that our community, as, whether you want to say black african americans, the black community, the yns, whatever you want to say, like one thing for certain is we don't, we don't work together as much as we should and we gatekeep a lot of information and we gatekeep a lot of shit. And that's not, that's not given the value that you need to give to the, to the ones around you. You see what I'm saying. I just feel like the issue, the issue starts with us with is that we gatekeep a lot and we feel like, oh, I don't want him to be better than me, so I'm not going to put him on, but how you said it A-Rap community, they don't do that. Jewish community, they don't do that.
Speaker 5:Man and they work together, they thrive together.
Speaker 1:Man, shit, you look at the Mego community. Them niggas will got down, piled up in a house until they read the gold that they got to meet. And then, next thing you know, they spread out and they buy another house, they go buy property, they go buy land. Them motherfuckers are goddamn being illegal as fuck, hey. But they got a goal to reach.
Speaker 5:And that's where it starts A goal. A lot of people don't have a goal, but they out here putting in the risk, but you don't know where you're going and that's where you're going to fail. Feel like that's what. That's the hard part for a lot of people. A lot of people know what they want, but they don't have a goal. And the best way to separate yourself from everybody else is if you have a goal and you know where you're going, nine times out of ten you're gonna get there but.
Speaker 1:but this is the thing, this is the problem key a lot of niggas. Their only goal is to to goddamn Friday. Their goal is to get that motherfucking paycheck, that measly ass paycheck, and that's as far as they see. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5:Then you don't have a real. You don't have a. You don't have a goal that's gonna provide value to your life and to the people around you. If your goal is friday and to see that next paycheck, okay, that's a goal. Nobody should knock you for that. Are you? I mean, you're not. You're not making the world a better place with that goal, but that's your goal I mean it's not necessarily a goal.
Speaker 6:I mean I say it's a goal but it's like they got so comfortable with doing that. You know just making it to friday, you know they got uncomfortable. People be scared to take risks. So it's like you know you got to take risk in life. You know I'm saying you got to take risk. Life is all about risk. I'm not gonna reach your goals if you don't take risks. So it's like people just got uncomfortable. That's just how society is now nowadays.
Speaker 5:But it is that comfortability and and that's how you know people are comfortable. You just by you waiting for that friday and for that check to hit you. You are comfortable on relying on somebody else to feed you and your family. And I don't think that this couch want to think and for the people out there that don't want to think that way you got to listen to what Caleb's saying it's going to come with risks for you to get to where you want to get.
Speaker 1:Because what you're saying it's like a running back with a football and he know he's going to get hit. He can take that risk by running that ball. So it's either I'm going to get hit this time, I'm going to get hit next time, he can take that risk by running that ball. So it's either I'm going to get hit this time, I'm going to get hit next time, I might juke this one, I might juke that one. But guess what? I still take that risk to run that ball because in my mind it's like when I was growing up without risk, there's no reward if I don't get, if I don't fumble the ball, if I don't fuck up, I can't figure it out. I can't learn from my mistakes because if I don't learn from my mistakes, there's no growth. Because a lot of people are afraid to take that fucking risk or to take that leap, or to have people around them that will just encourage him to just grow, because people are afraid to fail.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry With me. Failure is the best sense of life that makes me know I'm living. Because I can't learn from my wins. I learn the best from my wins. I learned the best from my losses, because if I don't learn from my losses, the fuck am I learning from somebody else? So, my, what did somebody put in a book? You can put it whatever the fuck you want in a book to tell me whatever the fuck I want to, but unless I learn from my own fuck up, how the fuck do I goddamn tell somebody else, hey, don't do this or don't do that. I learned from this. I don't learn from that. Because if I learn from what you put in the book, man, you can tell me the sky is motherfucking green, the sky is motherfucking red, and I have to believe you. But if I don't go out there and look at that motherfucker, how will I know it's blue? Because a lot of people don't fail to realize, without taking that first step to take out, to take that leap of courage, because that's what it is, because there's nobody in this world that has learned from their first. There's nobody in this world that has learned from their first fuck up or their first fumble, to where they don't try again. Because if there's no risk, there's no reward.
Speaker 1:If I don't fuck up a hundred dollars, a thousand dollars, two thousand dollars, where do I go from there? Because, because what you do, what you do is you go back and reevaluate. Because when I go back and reevaluate, oh shit, I should have did this different. Let me try this, let me try that, because it's all a teaching moment. If you don't learn from it, what do you do? If you don't learn from it, what do you do? If you don't learn from a fuck up, what do you do? What's next? Because I know what y'all successful clothing brand, how many times y'all done got down and bought a pack and be like it's red shit. We sitting on all this merch, what we gonna do with it Plenty of times, plenty of times For real For real Most definitely.
Speaker 5:It's definitely been them times where we're like dang bro, how are we gonna get all this? And that's just when your mind just start working itself. I feel like we've already got. I feel like we've already gotten in that mode to where, if we got a problem, our mind already starts kicking the gear towards how we're going to fix it, what we're going to do to make this situation better, to kind of think the way we think.
Speaker 5:Now, when shit comes up, or when, I would say, I guess, when things don't go the way we thought it's gonna go, we're able to think how we supposed to think because, uh, situation that we've learned from due to the risk, like it's literally all like a, I guess I would say maybe like a domino effect. Like step one, you got the idea, you got the goal, you know what you want to do. Two, you put in the risk to do it. Three, over time, you're able to evaluate what, what didn't work, what did work. Now you're able to know what you need to do better.
Speaker 5:And it's going to continue to be that cycle for a year, two years, three years, until things finally get in that rhythm. But you'll never know when things are gonna start to kind of thrive for you until, like we've been saying, this podcast, until you take that risk to you, actually just do it. I feel like that's. That's like I'm gonna just stay on out there and doing it, because a lot that's the fear that a lot of people have. I'm not daring doing it.
Speaker 6:That's true. I mean they fear taking risks. But it's like if they do take the risks, a lot of people don't stay consistent with it. That's. Another big thing is consistency. A lot of people don't realize that consistency is the main, main factor. You know what I'm saying. You have to stay consistent to see results. I mean some people don't realize that they give up after a week, two weeks, sometimes a month. I mean it's going to be downhills, uphills, but as long as you stay consistent, just producing new stuff it's going to work out.
Speaker 5:Once you find something that you really want to do, do, it's going to become less like a task and it's going to feel less like a job and it's going to feel more like. It's going to feel more so like something that you love. But, again, you're just going to have to go through the trials and tribulations to figure out what it is that you actually love to do and once you figure out that thing, it won't be. You know what I'm saying? You're going to enjoy I feel like that's when you'll start to enjoy the journey that you're going to go through, and every problem that you face is going to feel like it's a valuable problem and you're able to learn from it.
Speaker 5:But, like I said, everybody on this couch is able to talk. The way that we talk now is because we've been. We've been able to develop that mindset of an entrepreneur and we've been able to develop that mindset of whatever comes, just don't come. But it's gonna have to deal with it and at the end of the day, it's gonna get us to where we need to go, because it's about the journey more than anything and it's about learning and what you can take away from it because, at the end of the day, it should be about bettering yourself firstly, before anything.
Speaker 5:How you can be better and how you can. How can you, how can you be better for yourself and how you can be able to turn that around and provide value somebody else. That's what I feel like the goal is. That's what my goal in life is is to be able to provide that value to other people and pretty much make people around me lives easier and better. I've gotten to where I needed to go. Now I can put everybody else on the platform and now I can take care of everybody else and do what everybody else and I can do for everybody else. You know what I'm saying so.
Speaker 1:so in retrospect it's like you saying like, okay, I learned from my mistakes, I learned from my win. So this will make your path a little bit easier to get where you got to go, because a lot of people fail to realize just because I don't go through it myself personally and my partner go through it. If my partner dropping gems on me sometimes, I should have gotten out my ears. I fucking listen because, like I tell people all the time, man, I learned from my five year old and I learned from my 18 year old. I learned from my 73 year old mama. I learned, I learned from my sister, I learned from my cousin, I learned from my partner at work.
Speaker 1:Just because I don't go through it doesn't mean I can't learn from it. And a lot of people fail to realize and people are like, oh, it's not in the book, nigga don't mean you can't learn from it. So what the fuck are you learning? What the fuck are you going through? What the fuck are you living for if you can't learn from your fuck-ups? What the fuck are you living for if you can't learn from your fuck-ups? What the fuck are you learning from if you can't learn from your mistakes, if you can't learn from your fumbles, what the fuck are you learning from? I mean shit. We live on this earth to learn and, like I tell people all the time, if you put me in a motherfucking pine block and you can put me in in, like, in a controlled environment, nigga, I'm a, I'm a win. But hey, that's it, man. I want to thank y'all.
