How often do we ponder our significance in the grand timeline of history? In this introspective episode, George and Robby explore the fleeting nature of legacy and the sobering reality of how quickly time erases even the most impactful lives. Reflecting on the recent passing of business coach Kerwin Rae, they examine how influential figures can inspire millions, yet eventually fade from memory. They also dive into personal stories of wake-up calls that sparked profound life changes, emphasizing the importance of living with intention and defining what truly matters. This is an episode about purpose, priorities, and the lasting impact we can create in our lifetimes.

As we navigate the profound implications of facing terminal illness and the fear of missing out, we share transformative stories that inspire resilience and change. From a family friend who adopted a holistic lifestyle after a cancer diagnosis to the extreme lengths some go due to FOMO, we highlight the importance of embracing life's moments and the choices that define us. These narratives serve as powerful reminders of the potential for personal growth and the significance of living in the present.

If you’ve ever felt stuck or needed inspiration to make a change, this episode is a must-listen. It’s a call to action to embrace the unpredictability of life and turn challenges into opportunities for growth.

George:

Do you think in 250 years you're going to matter?

Robby:

B yeah, of course. Of course. Wouldn't it help helpful to be if you could, if you created something? Imagine you worked out time. You don't have to say on the same time. You can say on the same time, right. But imagine you've worked out time and you're like, hey, I've actually created a device that you can look into it and it's going to show you in 250 years. And then you look into it and then you realize, oh, no one even knows who I am. Like they don't care and it just moves on to all this other shit. That would be really powerful man that'd be amazing.

George:

How powerful would that be 100%, because we'll get into the future Very powerful shit. The reason I say is eight weeks ago eight weeks ago, kirwin ray passed away. Now, for those of you that don't know who kirwin ray is, he's an australian entrepreneur, business coach type person. I'd imagine that most people listening to this podcast know who kirwin ray is. Now I went to his nail it and scale it event not sorry, I did Nail it and Scale it event, sorry, I did his Nail it and Scale it event online because it was during COVID and my friend had a ticket and he said here, come and do it. I did it half-assed at the time because I was so busy online, half-working, half-listening sort of thing.

George:

But aside from that, about 10 years ago, before I got or when I started my business initially, curled was one of the very first people I actually went and saw. He was at like some room in Carlton, you know, before he was really massively popular and he was talking about social media and hashtags and how to take advantage of Instagram and all that sort of stuff. So he was probably one of the very first people that got me on the track of wanting to start improving business and research and all that sort of stuff. And then over the years I always followed him. I really liked a lot of his stuff that he had said really resonated with me and business and he was the same with a lot of people, built a massive following, had over a million probably like one and a half million followers on Facebook. He spoke on stages with like Gary Vaynerchuk, with Grant Cardone, with a whole bunch of people really influential person and really helped a lot of business owners.

George:

I think he's probably one of three, probably one of the best three in the country. What he was doing. I'd say it'd be him, maybe Aaron Sansoni and what's the other one, jack DeLosa. They're probably the three that come to mind when it comes to that business coaching, mentoring sort of thing. And he died. I don't know the reason, I'm not too sure what the reasons were, but he died about six weeks ago. So for those of you listening to this right now that know him or of him, how many times have you thought about him in the last week or today or before listening to this moment right now?

George:

Well, since his passing, since his passing, this is a guy who was quite influential in that space. He was putting out a lot of content, did podcasts, did events with thousands of people in them and affected a lot of people Positively, positively, yeahly, yeah. How many of you have thought about him since that day? You know what I mean, and it was similar to like when, I think Gary Vaynerchuk said this when Prince passed away. You know, one of the biggest music icons in the world. It's like he got press for like three, four days and then that's it. No one's spoken about him since. No one's spoken about him since. No one's thought about him since. And we're all walking around here like everything we do, everything we're about it's gonna live forever. It's gonna live forever.

George:

When the reality is at your funeral, everyone's going to be really sad. Then they, they're going to go to the next stage being. They're going to go to someone's house. Everyone's going to be crying. They might tell some jokes. I'll go home that night. I go. That was a sad day. They'll probably go to sleep, wake up the next morning, go to work. Maybe your immediate family might be sad for the next week, the next two weeks, the next month. Eventually they're also going to get up, go to work. Maybe your immediate family might be sad for the next week, the next two weeks, the next month. Eventually, they're also going to get up, go to work. Move on with their days. Look at a photo of you every now and then. Oh, that that makes that was a nice memory yeah, then they're going to have kids.

George:

Then you go. I really wish you met your, your granddad or your grandmother one day. I wish you did once upon a time. And then eventually you're just going to become that little moment in time, because then those people are going to pass away, and then those people are going to pass away, and then those people pass away, and then at 250 years in the future, and then how much is everyone going to remember you and what you're about?

Robby:

Do you know your dad's grandfather? No, I don't. Do you know of him?

George:

Yes.

Robby:

Like you know his name. Yes, you know what he did.

George:

Not entirely.

Robby:

Do you know what type of person he was? Not really. Do you talk about him much, never. That's only three generations, that's right.

George:

You Never. That's only three generations, that's right. You lived in a different country too, mind you, so there was a little bit of a disconnect there. But yeah, I know what you're saying. That's only two generations away. I mean, the difference with what we do and how we're about now is, yeah, you can argue, we've got social media. People are still probably going to see Kerwin's content. It probably still goes viral in a country, somewhere. Who knows what it might be. However, people will probably have to specifically look you up and search you up to find out you and what you're about. So even then, if you're still not relevant in that time, it's going to be pretty difficult for you to connect with people. But yeah, I just thought that that was interesting, being that that's eight weeks ago, and that this guy was like he was creating a lot of content, he was doing a lot of moves, like people in that space. Most people in business know him.

Robby:

I think he's a you him. He's a big person in the space. He was a large, was a large figure. Yeah, he. I was shocked, dude, when I heard yeah, I sent it to you.

Speaker 3:

You thought you thought I was sending you a minute.

Robby:

Yeah, and I looked at it briefly on my watch and then I thought I'll check it out. I was doing something. It was like I'll check it out in a moment. And then when I went and looked at it and I couldn't believe my eyes, man, I thought, is this a joke? Like, and it was 9 News and I was like this can't be a joke. I remember like just trying to scramble to try and find out, like what happened.

George:

Young, like 49 or something. I went to an event this year.

Robby:

Oh, did you? I went and saw him this year. Man, yeah, wow, yeah, I went and saw him at the start of this year. He was supposed to come at an AI event.

George:

Do you remember? I remember yeah.

Robby:

Yeah, I did it right after a podcast. I did a podcast and I got up and left. I couldn't go.

George:

Yeah, I remember I wanted to, though, yeah, and you used some of that content.

Robby:

Some of that content was beneficial for you and your yeah 100 and it's like guy going hard at life in every aspect, like he was like fit, he looked fit, he was spiritual spiritual, yeah, he was young. Family, yeah, and kid, maybe two kids um and gone yep.

George:

So look for a moment. I just wanted to acknowledge him because, not, I wasn't a type of person that he had a great impact in my life, but I definitely had a deep respect for what he did and what he achieved in the short amount of time that he was here yeah, I also.

Robby:

You know what I liked about him? There wasn't a two things he was. You know how I found out about him? Gary Vee? Oh right, because there was a video of him meeting Gary Vee early on and him saying to Gary, gary Vee saying to him you need to just put out content. Like you're not putting out content, you need to put out content. And then him seeing Gary Vee like two years later and saying, hey, thank you, man, you changed my life. Blah, blah, blah.

George:

And Gary V V, knowing who he was because he had started to put out so much content.

Robby:

Yeah, yeah, and I thought that was sick, like that was cool. Um, when was he going to? I was going to say something about that.

Robby:

Oh, and the second thing I really liked about him was he I'm a very casual person. Like I don't. I wear maybe three or four different pieces of clothing over it. Like you know what I mean, I put on hats all the time. I just don't. I'll very rarely wear a suit or things like that. I'll very rarely dress out of my. I just like to be comfortable. Yeah Right, like I'll come here, like I won't. Usually I'm here.

George:

I mean, you don't need to be in a three-piece suit every single day.

Robby:

Yeah, but he was one of, I think, few people to go and wear a T-shirt on stage. Yeah, he'd rock up in jeans and a T-shirt, yeah, and you'd be like that's cool, I like that you're doing that. I like the fact that Horngroozy does it. He goes on stage with a hat backwards and you're like, yeah, that's cool, like you guys are being yourself. You're no longer putting on this facade of look at me, look at my suits, look at my jewelry. Yeah, I'm rich.

George:

Listen to me. Look at my watch. Here's my Centurion Amex card.

Robby:

Yeah.

George:

Let watch, here's my centurion amex card.

Robby:

Yeah, yeah, let me go grab the bentley or the porsche or the lambo. I like that he doesn't do that. No one knows what car. Do you know what car you drove?

Speaker 3:

no, no idea, no idea he could have drove, something.

George:

Sure he did really cool sure he did, like he was very successful, like I'm sure he made a lot and a lot of money as well. Yeah, I'm sure he's. I mean, people would have looked at him and envied him. The the guy's dead now. How much do you envy that? See what I mean. Would you trade places with him? Would you trade places with him Good question Knowing he was going to die at 49, but have this extravagant life of fame, fortune, but knowing that he's going to die at 49. Would you trade places with him? No way, no, not in a million years.

George:

And Richard Branson said this the other day it's like someone came up to him at an event and he was a young kid, he was 21 years old. Hey, richard, because you're a billionaire, he goes. Can we go to the atm down the road? And can you give me a thousand dollars? All right, a thousand dollars to you isn't a fart in the wind, like it's nothing, but to me, like that's astronomical, like that thousand dollars is going to change my month for me to get a thousand dollars and the fact that I get it from you as well, like what a great memory.

George:

And richard turns to him. He says look, I'm not going to get you the thousand dollars. He goes. But you know what I would do he goes. I would give up absolutely every cent. I had to be 20 years old and broke. He goes. I would give up everything. He goes. That's what you have. That I don't. He goes. I'm fucking in my 70s, 80s. However old he is, I would give up everything to be 20 years old and completely broke. And it changed that kid's perspective completely. It was no longer about the $1,000. It was like, wow, I have a whole life ahead of me.

Robby:

I think stories like that are great because they give you as much of a feel as you're going to get for something like that without having experienced it. Yeah, yeah, I mean like I think there is nothing. No one can ever say it to you. That will like how many times do you hear people say stuff? Have you ever heard yourself say something? Now, they like people.

Robby:

You said it to me oh yeah yeah, and I didn't listen, or I heard them and I knew they were right, but it hits different now, yeah, do you know what I mean? Like the, your 20s will fly. They're like, nah, this is ages. And the next thing you know you're in your 30s. And they're like, holy fuck, oh, you're really old, you're 40, okay, um, but time does fly, man. Time fucking goes so quickly, dude, so, so so quickly, you know.

Robby:

And another one you mentioned, I think, about the figures at the start another prominent person that people do that with is the queen, yeah, who died a couple years ago. It's like how many times you thought about her. You know, she changed modern society in the commonwealth. Like female ruler, like, yeah, she came into power at a time where it wasn't okay to be a woman in power and she did so much and impacted so many people. I don't know anything about the royal family and all that, um, but just to someone of that sort of caliber, right, like almost everyone, or a lot of people, I should say like half the planet would have knew who she was, and it would be I can't thought about it in the last six months.

George:

I haven't thought about her since you've mentioned it.

Robby:

I'm still not thinking about her. I'm still not thinking about her. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, exactly, but it's like you're going to die.

George:

You're going to die. Literally you one day hopefully far, far away, far far away, surrounded by loved ones.

Robby:

You know what? You're lucky if that happens. Yeah, oh, without a doubt.

George:

If you make it to the end.

Robby:

You're lucky if you get to make it to the end and be surrounded by the loved ones and know that you're going to kick the bucket.

George:

That's it, and be of sound mind. Yeah, you know what I mean. You've made it. You clocked life at that level Now not many people get like Kirwan now he's not going to get that opportunity, Not going to see his grandkids, all right. Yeah, obviously we don't know the I've got no idea of the circumstances and how it happened. No, I don't know, did they?

Robby:

know? Did they not know? Yeah, but still regardless. Sad story Some people it's a very sad story. Some people like regardless. Some people it's a very sad story. Some people never get like. Some people get the call hey man, you know, you've got cancer, you've got this illness, you've got this disease, you've got diabetes, and they and for some people it is a very bad, like really bad news. For some people it's a wake-up call yeah, without a doubt I've got.

George:

I want to get him on the podcast. Actually, I've got a family friend and he's he was given that exact news you know he had. He was given months terminally ill. They said to him you're fucked, sorry.

Robby:

All right, jump on chemo, do everything I can't believe they tell people that dude like I understand.

Robby:

I think I've had a family member go through that yeah and dude living wasn't healthy like he would, but he just never looked after himself, but living a normal life, working full time. Do you know what I mean? He was in his early 50s living a normal life working full time. Yeah, he was like I think he was throwing. He was in his early 50s living a normal life, working full time. He was like I think he was throwing up or something was happening, but he was always like in and out of doctors, in and out of hospitals, diabetic, and then something was wrong. So he went and got some tests done and they said, okay, you've got a tumor in your stomach. And he said how bad is it? They said really bad. And they said it's not repairable, it's not operatable, we'll give you 12 months. Yeah, he died at two. Yeah, right, yeah, I think they killed him, not in the sense of they sat there, no, of course, mentally.

George:

He got the news and he didn't know how people people aren't equipped to cope with that sort of stuff he did not know how to process it.

Robby:

Yeah, and he was just like this is it like my life's over, like that's it? Yeah, you know, you never see the finish line. They've just told me that the finish line's over there, yeah, and that, yeah, that mentality, you know, went from like working everything to got a little bit sick, but was still going to work to gone.

George:

Yeah, and that was a similar thing with this family friend. So he was diagnosed with a terminal illness. It was cancer of some sort. So they go look, you've got three months, we'll make it. We can probably give you five. Know what I mean? We'll give you six.

George:

Jump on chemo, jump on radiation, do all this sort of shit, go everything. So he started doing that. He starts throwing up, starts fucking losing his hair, starts like just feeling like shit, like he's being poisoned. At the end of the day chemo and radiation you're poisoning your body to get it better. You know what I mean? And he was camping, similar like how you do. He was camping one day. He went by himself, all right, and he's like fuck this shit. He goes I'm not doing any more chemo, I'm not doing any more radiation. If I'm going to die, I'm just going to fucking die Like it is. It is what it is, I'm done.

George:

Overly healthy guy. He was a smoker. He was always stressed. He said stress was a big thing for him because he had his own business, he was always working, all that sort of shit. Anyway, he went and saw this doctor who was one of the top 10 smartest doctors in the world, a natural doctor, didn't believe in modern medicine. This doctor, he's like no, no, we can cure 90% of the diseases just by eating, right, by exercising, by doing these small things. Anyway, he put him on this pretty intense diet of foods like superfoods right, because you're going to eat this, you're going to have 43 shakes a day, you're going to do this, you're going to do this, you're going to stop smoking and do all this sort of stuff. Anyway, that was about 15 years ago, and he's still here today because he changed everything about his life and, as you said, that wake up call. He changed his diet, he changed his mental state, he changed a whole bunch of stuff and as a result of that, he's still here today. He's not a shadow of himself, right, he's still very strong, he's fit. He'd be in his late 50s, early 60s. No, late 50s now, I think Late 50s. He still calls me every now and then. He actually worked for me for a little while until I fired him, but he was working with me for a little while Really good, genuine guy, yeah, and that was the wake-up call for him, though, because he could have gone very easily the other way.

George:

He could have just given up on life. He could have just gone fuck it, I'm gonna do the chemo because that's what I've been told, modern medicine, that's what I'm gonna do. And he went the complete other direction. And he's still here, 15 years later, because every day I have it's like it's a bonus and I've won. I won life because every day, every year, because I'm still here.

George:

And one of the biggest things he's told me, but he'll tell you too, is also that stress, he reckons stress, is one of the biggest killers. It makes you sick, it promotes cancerous growth Cancerous growths, that's what. And he deep dive into all the medicine and modern medicine and all that sort of stuff. And you know his real underground conspiracy theory stuff saying how you know, it's a trillion dollar industry, the medical industry, which it is, because they make money. They make money off people dying and getting sick. Man, they don't give a fuck, they just want you to pump you full of everything, because that's where they make their money. But yeah, it was a very interesting and inspirational story where he dealt that card and he's like no, no, I've got my own cards. Let me sort that out and look, that's not to say what he did. Everyone should do and and is good for everyone. But I think a lot of it had to do with his mindset and where he was at. Yeah, with everything, because, like you said something, mentally check out.

George:

Yeah, your example you could have very easily mentally checked out and you didn't.

Robby:

He thought, no, I'm gonna give it a crack and I think I don't know this person you're talking about.

George:

No, if you haven't met him Do.

Robby:

that person would have a newfound lease on life.

George:

Yeah, he does. He does. Well, the funny thing is he never wanted kids and had a kid very late in his life, in his 50s.

Robby:

So he didn't want a kid. Before it, no, and then after that.

George:

I don't know if it was after that experience, but he ended up having a child after that. You know what I mean, but is it Okay? I don't know if it was a result of that this is recent, but it happened after it. Yeah, it definitely happened after.

Robby:

So yeah, it probably did have a. I think he would admit it. He would say, well, I'm lucky, I got. People sometimes don't get the. You know, even if you get the like this is, we're not sounding too toxic. It's a sad thing Either way. Yeah, you don't want to see anyone go through it. No, we're not denying that at all. But I think you know you get the. Hey, you got five years left. Hey, you got three years left. Like it's almost like a, it's a reminder, like you got a time limit now and you probably got more of an indication than most. Go, do what you want.

George:

Yeah.

Robby:

Go live, do what you want. Yeah, live the life you want to live, whatever that is for you. Like everyone, do you think we get pressured to do things because everybody else is doing it?

George:

Oh, without a doubt, I think there's an element of that for sure. Yeah, it's like I spoke with Adam last week and he was talking about his. He wants to create more social media and more content. Do you feel that you've got to create more content because everyone's fucking creating content now? He's like, yeah, absolutely, because it would be an element of that. So I get left behind if I don't create fucking social media posts. So, yeah, I do believe there is a massive element of that too.

George:

Think about buying houses. Everyone wants to buy a house. Why, what are you going to buy a house for? Oh, who told you that buying a house now is the right thing to do, the right move? Oh, my mum and dad. Oh, so you're taking financial advice from people who are not where you want to be. Oh, so you're taking financial advice from people who are not where you want to be. Oh, my neighbors, my this, my this, my this. Okay, the banks. You're taking advice from the banks. You make billions of dollars a quarter off people borrowing money to buy things they can't afford. So that's just an example there, but there's so many things like that. Why does everyone want not everyone, but why do people want really nice things Watches, clothes, ferraris, cars. Why do they want these things? Most of the time? Because they see other people. Oh, I want that. The FOMO, the whole FOMO thing.

Robby:

FOMO is a real thing, yeah, very real thing yeah. I believe I've got an element of that I think it's human nature yeah, it's human nature to want what is scarce why, do I think diamonds. Why so much?

Robby:

because they were supposedly scarce yeah apparently there's a whole conspiracy theory I've heard this as well, actually, yeah I don't know if it's true or not, but yeah, like the whole thing around diamonds, like why so you'll go pay a lot of money for the shiny rock it's a weird thing, yeah, but it's like we have this natural attraction to this thing because it's shiny and because it's scarce. Yeah, it's like there's only a limited amount of these and if you have them, that shows some level of status. We are attracted to what we think we can't have and it's like as soon as you find out your life's got a time limit. Oh, I didn't get to do that thing.

George:

Yeah well, most people on their deathbed, they get the opportunity to get to their deathbed. It's not like having regrets is going to be a really bad thing. See what I mean Shoot your shot. Don't get to the point where you go fuck, I wish I did that. Fuck, I wish I had that opportunity again. It's like Branson said if I wish I did that, I wish I had that opportunity again. It's like Branson said if anything to be 20 years old and broke, you take all my billions, I'll swap with you. How's that? There's a machine right now. Find me a 20 year old that will swap. You get all my billions. But you're 75 years old, but you get all my billions.

Robby:

I'll swap with you. That's a you have to be an idiot. I feel like Jesus 100%, you have to be an idiot. I think you can find a person like that. Yeah, I was trying to tell me there's idiots in this world.

Speaker 3:

I think it was in China. A person sold his kidney to get an iPad. That actually happened. Yeah, it's the early 2010s or something. It's the dumbest thing that happened.

Robby:

Was it an iPad Pro?

George:

I mean, I think it was the. Did they get the keyboard with it too, in the pen?

Speaker 3:

No, I think it was the original iPad or something like that.

George:

Oh, the original shit, I got stooged.

Robby:

That's a bad move, but like what are the things that you? But like what are the things that you know what? Right now, go there for a second. Do you know what I mean? And if you and I hope you never do anyone listening to this, watching this, whatever you're watching it, I hope you never get that news and I hope no one ever cares about kids' news.

George:

But if you did, what would play on your mind? Yeah, do you know what I mean? I think it's actually not as bad as you think to think about death and mortality.

Robby:

Dude, that weekly thing I do it every single week, Every single week. I'm on 29.32 right now.

George:

Context you tell people what you're talking about.

Robby:

Yeah, that's so. Every single week I've got a sticky note, a sticky note pad, stuck on my wall, and every Sunday I take the sticker off and I stick it on my shelf. So right now there's a whole bunch of sticky notes on my shelf. There's a number on it. Right now it says 29, 32. And that's how many weeks I've got left until I turn 90, if I get to live to 90, which I think is a high number. I've been thinking about that recently.

George:

I've been thinking about changing it to 65.

Robby:

Yeah, right, yeah, but then I'm scared because that number's going to drop fast. Yeah, you know what?

George:

I mean, if you look after yourself and you're exercising and eating right, I think 65 can still be young. Yes, it can be young. I really believe. There's this photo that was really impactful for me that I found a few years back, and I'm coming up to a training. Actually, by the time this airs, I might even be in Brisbane and I'm doing a training with some of my mentees. It's around the whole concept of vitality and life and everything. And there was an image that I found a couple of years back that had a huge impact on me, and it was of two men and one man was both 84 years old. So when you think of an 84-year-old, what do you think of?

George:

Old frail wheelchair, yeah, wrinkly, maybe a walking stick, move slowly, that sort of thing. And there was two men side by side how old, 84. One of the men was he looked strong, fit, completely jacked shirt off, muscular chest arms, six pack, like muscular, yeah. And then the other man was sitting in a wheelchair, hunched over hand over his walking stick, like this, looked old, frail, like he looked if you pushed him you were going to break his hip or anything was going to happen to it. And the other guy, really strong, fit, 84 years old.

George:

Now you look at them, they were both old, they looked elderly, but both of them made a choice at some stage in their life to end up like that. Both of them made a choice at some stage in their life to end up like that. Both of them made that choice. I think as long as you continually train with weights, look after yourself, keep your muscle mass up that's what I've learned over the years is muscle mass is a huge contributing factor to whether you're going to get sick or fight off disease or however long you're going to live, for it's going to come down to the fact of you being strong and physically fit, um, but not at 85. Start training.

Robby:

You've got to start training at 30 and make sure yeah, to make sure you're able to do things you know, I mean, like you can open the door yeah, and we're not designed to be like modern medicine today, like we're living longer than ever.

George:

But why we're not designed to be like modern medicine today, like we're living longer than ever? But why we're living longer than ever? Because we've got the technology there to prolong our life. It doesn't necessarily mean the quality of life is going to be there All right, because you can prolong someone's life and they're miserable, sitting in a wheelchair and can't move, or in a chair and can't go outside. We're not designed to live like that. We're designed to have a long life and die within two weeks. That's it. Not die within three and a half, four, five years, and that's what technology does. Massive, I'll pull the plug, don't worry. I'll hook you up, don't worry, I'll do this. Yeah, oi, oi, hurry up. Yeah, let's do one more episode, then pull the plug.

Robby:

Life man Yep.

George:

And you know what I think. In this day and age, especially for those of you that are in business, I have everything Dude. Another week's down, another week's down. Another week is down, another week's gone. You know what I mean Of the year. Another week is down, another week's gone. You know what I mean of the year. Another week is down, like how quickly has 2025 gone? It's good we're in december now, aren't we? When this episode is almost yeah, nearly in december? All right, 2024 is gone and next year is just around the corner. And guess what? You're gonna guess what's gonna happen next year. We're around the corner and guess what's going to happen next year. We're going to get to November and you go what the fuck? How did that happen? And I get it.

George:

People are really busy in their day-to-day life and you often don't stop and smell the roses. You often don't go hey, I need to set back and go. All right, it's important to me. What do I need to do? A couple all right, it's important to me. What do I need to do? A couple episodes back, we spoke about our goals and what we had achieved. It's important Set your goals, don't set new year's resolutions. What do you actually want. What is it you want in your life? Go out there and fucking do it. Don't sit back and go. I'll do it next year, I'll do it the year after, I'll do it when I've got a bit more money. I'll do it when I've got a bit more money. I'll do it when I'm when I've lost five kilos. I'll do it when I stop smoking. Like, fucking do it now. Stop making excuses everything in your life. When you start talking like that, it's always an excuse, always an excuse.

Speaker 3:

I have this interesting thing that me and my wife do. So what we do is we write down three different year timelines. So one is you die in one day and the next one is you die in one year, and the third one is you die in 10 years and you have to fill out what do you want to do in one day, in one year and 10 years? They are totally different, and you just keep it to yourself the whole thing. How often do you do that? Uh, every two years. So it's kind of funny. We started doing it since 2019, so we've got two down. Probably the next ones comes in and we just keep it to ourselves. Sometimes we open it up, like two or three years after. It always changes and it changes the perspective of, like, how you're living and some of them you actually achieve them.

George:

Yeah, it's a very good experiment and I randomly found a notebook that I had in my in my um pedestal next to my desk old notebook and it had goal. I had written goals in there from 2018 or something like that. I was looking at these goals. I'm like fuck, I've done all of these yeah, I've had that happen too.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, but the difference is that these are not goals, these are the timeline death. That's right, like, what are you going to do before that time? Yeah, before that, what do you want? Yeah, what are you going to do Before that?

George:

time? Yeah, before that, what do you want?

Robby:

Yeah, what are you going to?

George:

do Like I already know off the top of my head what I'm doing if I die tomorrow, Do you?

Speaker 3:

know what I mean. On the 10 years, I wanted to have like three kids or something. Yeah, even though they would get orphaned, I would still rather have kids. Oh, is one of the goals.

George:

Yeah, without a doubt, I think, one of the meanings of life or to me anyway, I speak personally that having kids is one of the greatest things you will ever accomplish in your life. That's how I feel about it, and how many people take that for granted? Do you know what I mean? They never think twice. Do you think twice? Wow, I'm so.

George:

You walk home tonight after a hard day's work, walk in to see your family, your kids, you go fuck. I am the luckiest motherfucker on the planet 99% of the people. When they walk home tonight, they take their jacket off, they take their shoes off, they sit on the couch, they watch some TV, they might fall asleep, they have dinner. Hey, baby, how are you? Give you a kiss, give them a hug. How was your day at school? Oh, it was good. Okay, all right, sit on your phone.

George:

We're distracted. We are distracted. That's the best way to put it. You're distracted by your day-to-day tasks, all the things that you're trying to do in your business and your life. You're distracted and it's taking you away from the things you genuinely want, and that's why it's so important to set some really clear goals, or those death notes, if you want to put it that way. What would you do differently if you're going to die tomorrow? What are you going to do differently if you die next year? What are you going to do differently if you die in 10 years? What are the things you want to do? Sorry, before that happens.

Robby:

I think do you journal.

George:

No, I don't. But when I found that notepepad, I took it out and it's on my desk and I want to start just writing shit in it again.

Robby:

I think it's the most I've had the same thing happen, you know, and uh, it was someone's might have been always your son, but they said something otherwise of you've already achieved goals, you said would make you happy.

George:

Yeah, I really like that, and it's so true, it's so fucking true, it's so true.

Robby:

Dude, I had the same thing. I had a thing where it was like I want to do this and I want to go to this country and I want to have this much money and I want to have done this. You know what I mean. And it's like you've got all that. Like you've got all that. Do you know what I mean? It's like goals are good because they're direction. That's why they're good. Like they are cool. I'm headed this way. It's like punching in the address into Google Maps. You know what I mean. It'll tell you which way to go. But it's like every now and and again, I stop and I I journal on my computer oh right, I have an app called day one, okay, and I just type, I just fucking. Just, I know what you're going to ask, ask me and ask me, so everyone else knows.

George:

I'm just saying from the perspective. Do you think that's more powerful than writing it?

Robby:

I think there is no difference. Okay, cool people think you get more from writing. I don't believe that. Yeah, why? Why does what? Do you think your hand feeds differently to your brain because you've moved in a particular way? You could?

George:

probably write. Keystrokes are the same. Yeah, you probably type more in the same time. That's going to take you to type it it's the exact same thing, people.

Robby:

Just it's just an old way of thinking. In my ability, yeah, um, but yeah, no type. And I just I asked myself what do you want? Like, what the fuck do you want, dude? And this was the end of your life. What do you want? What's the, what are the things? And you need to ask yourself this listening to this right, what do you really want? Like, fuck all the other shit. Like, what do you want? Do you know me? Like dude, we okay it's not that simple.

Robby:

We talk all about. I don't understand that reference.

Speaker 3:

Iggy, that's from Notebook. You haven't seen it. No, Everyone's seen it.

Robby:

Everyone I haven't seen it.

George:

What do you?

Robby:

want.

George:

It's about this guy that journals every day.

Robby:

Yeah, what do you want?

Robby:

What if your life, if all the other shit didn't matter, if no one can see it? If only you knew you could have it. What do you want generally, if no one was gonna find out whether you had it or not? What do you want because, uh, certain things in life would not be that cool if no one knew you had it? Yeah, generally, like the friary might be cool for a day, and I'm not saying don't get a friary, go nuts, yeah, go sick, I'm all for the live. But like, what do you really want? What are the things that are going to matter to you most when you're 70 or 80 or 90 or 100? What are the things that you're going to look at and say I'm so glad I did this, I'm so glad I went and saw the world. I'm so glad I traveled. I'm so glad I went and saw the world. I'm so glad I traveled. I'm so glad I had kids. I'm so glad I lived my life the way I did, or did this, or gave to charity or made this much money, whatever it is.

Robby:

Ask yourself the question, because it's going to give you direction in which way you want to go for 2025. And there is no end goal, there is no clock. This and you're done until you're dead and you don't get to decide that. But well, I hope you don't. It's going to give you the direction you want to go, like it's going to make you. It's a. It's a tough question to answer, right, like it's a. Well, what do I really want here?

Robby:

And it usually comes down to like if you ask yourself why you want the Ferrari, you wouldn't have feeling you don't want the Ferrari. That's right. Really, it's a means to an end. Right, you want money because it's security, not because you want money. If I said, hey, you're not going to have any money, but I'll buy you anything you want, but you can't have any money, you'd be free with that. Do you know what I mean? Like you can't have any money at all, but everything you want, you just send me an invoice and I'll pay for it. Yeah, you'd be like fine, that's great, that's right. Toys are a means to an end.

Robby:

But it's like what do you want? What's that end? What's that feeling? Are you chasing security? Are you chasing freedom? Are you chasing love, fun, laughter, relationships, caring, even family? Family is a means to an end. You know that right, they make you feel a certain way. They're just humans. Yeah, they make you feel a certain way. You look at your kids and they fill you up with joy, gratitude, love, a hundred percent. Yeah, there's other people who look at their kids and say fuck these, yeah, you know what.

Robby:

I mean yeah.

George:

But it's like the same experience, dude. Some people aren't built for it. That's what I mean. They've gone in and and done something because of, as you said, external pressures. I have to have kids because that's the next step. I have to get married because that's what everyone does at my age. I have to do these things like it is. I think a lot of people get into scenarios that they don't necessarily want to or want to have. Maybe some people want to just be a monk and travel the world and just not have those obligations, and that's totally fine for you. What do you want?

Robby:

It's a tough question to answer, but I highly implore everyone listening to this. Take five minutes out of your day, just sit in the car before you go to work, yeah. Or in the morning before you take off. You're warming up the car. Just sit down and close your eyes and say what do I really want? Write it down. We'll type it. Write it in your notes. Download Day One. It's called Day One. It's a free app.

Speaker 3:

I would recommend reading any Ryan Holiday's books. They're pretty awesome about that kind of viewpoint. Especially, I just finished the book called Stillness is the Key. So it has the last chapter about. It talks about people have to find stillness in ourselves. It can be like in any kind of form, but in the last chapter it talks about death and it says death is the most stillness that we can ever be. So it's a very like stoic, psychological, philosophical answer, but still like anybody should check it out. What's it called Stillness?

George:

Stillness is the key. There's a lot of I like stoicism. Is that stoicism? Stoicism yeah, there's a lot that it's very practical and logical. I think that's why I like it, you know, being calm and emotional. Just, it is what it is Like. These are the facts. You don't need to worry about it. You worrying doesn't make it better, doesn't make it worse. There's a lot to like about um and a lot of lessons that you can learn and bring into your life. Um, my um, my employee the other day, is like he goes. One of the things I admire most about you he goes in stressful situations. You don't necessarily most people would get into a situation that would really stress them because you tend to have a cooler head around more difficult situations. I said, look, that's because I've gone through situations that are stressful and I've realized I got at the other end of them and continue to grow and become better. Now I tend to embrace the challenge and I look at it from a more mature but also more experienced mind.

Robby:

Also, you've done the reps. You can't go in and lift the 20-kilo dumbbell, should I? That's right. You start off with a three, then a five, then a seven, then you've been there five months. Someone says you're lifting the 20, and they're like oh, oh, how do you know he's strong?

George:

and you're like been here for a while. Yep, that's what we were saying last week again with with Adam and him wanting to do content. He's like, oh, I feel like I'm only going to get 2-3 likes, probably, yeah, probably will, and and it'll probably be like that for six months.

Robby:

And that's fine.

George:

Yeah, totally fine, but that's the thing You've got to find. You've got to be happy with that. It's part of the journey. I think you've got to realize that you've just got to. I feel that people need to enjoy the journey.

Robby:

Credit to him for not just being aware of it but admitting it. Yeah, being honest. But yeah, I think what do you want Good. But yeah, I think what do you want Good question.

George:

Yeah, very good question.

Robby:

Because you never want what you have right. Desire comes from lack.

George:

Yeah, that's right. As soon as you say what do you want, you think of all the things you don't have. That's what I'm saying Desire comes from lack. Yeah, that's right. That's right. As soon as you say what do you want, you think of all the things you don't have.

Robby:

That's what I'm saying. Desire comes from lack. Yeah, there is no desire without a lack of something. That's right. Right, A person who has. You're looking at Elon Musk, that's there. I want more money. Those people who think he can't even spend his money Do you know what I mean? Like when you're buying Twitter for $44 billion? That's what I'm saying. He has no way. That guy would have a whole different outlook on money. Yeah, but it's like. Yeah, it's a funny concept, isn't it? You only want what's not there. Like, we are the way we are wired. We are wired to focus on what is missing.

George:

Yes, not what you have. But then, in the same token as I say, you asked me that question what do you have? I've got everything I want. Oh, really, you don't want anything else. Have you finished? Have you clocked it? Yeah, done, we've checked out. There's that aspect of it too, isn't there? Because now I'm like no, no, I do want things, I do want to be here. You know, I said to you last week, I've just put on a GM. Didn't think that was going to happen ever in my business. Honestly.

Robby:

That's because you can't see the steps. You can see now when you start, yeah, like when you first walk onto the stage.

George:

I know but even when it's like, oh, you know, have your business under management, be a GM or, you know, get someone on board to do that, even then I was like no, no, I'll do it myself. Like why would I pay someone to do that when I can do it and keep the money for myself? What else am I going to do? You know, it's the small-minded aspect of it, and even now, like it's a journey for me, Like.

Robby:

I think you need to change the way you're, Because it's not like you're leaving the business?

George:

No, not at all. I'm still here, and especially at the beginning as well.

Robby:

You're just not doing the day-to-day operations, which I think is going to propel you forward in a way you've never seen Would you move out of my office.

George:

if you were me, so go and hire. So I moved into your office to be away from this office, not at the start no obviously not Eventually.

Robby:

You've got to make that call based on how you see things. Yeah, you know what?

George:

I mean, but eventually I wouldn't move out of the office, I think. I think I'd just get a new office where, as in a new, a whole new office building, go somewhere else but have a desk here, yeah, like no, no, I wouldn't necessarily, I don't think I need to be. So you would move out of the office. No, no, what I'm saying remove myself from the team. Yeah, yeah, but if I was to go, say, you get a two-story building and then I go, cool, I will have the office in the top right hand corner where I'm less accessible to people, still in the building, obviously, but it's like senior, upper level management yeah, but if you weren't in the building, are you in the building?

George:

no, exactly right, I'm not in the building at all yeah, so what's the question? Oh, just out of curiosity, like do you think it's if you're going to step into that ceo world? Are you removed from the team?

Robby:

I think a ceo is on the org chart. He is. Yeah, yeah, so I I think, as a ceo you're not removed from the team. Yeah, and that's, you still have a level of involvement in the business you should still have monthly goals.

George:

Oh, without a doubt, I'll have monthly goals, like I'm going to be, and this is where I'm. The good thing is, you know you were saying the other day you track your numbers every single day. I want to be doing that now. Oh, dude, very powerful, yeah, and I'm pumped about it, like I want to start setting up a graph and actually track it and go cool, let's see the graph over the course of the year. It's going to go up and down and up and down, but by the time I get to December next year, I want it to be here from here, not there or not stagnant. We want to see this growth over the year and then I can track and then go cool, we started off with this much, you've taken over. We're now here. There's the difference in net profit. Let's go. Here's your bonus.

Robby:

Yeah, I think it's. I think clarity is power and that's what doing that does, that's what answering those questions does. That's what journaling is. I used to think journaling was so gay man, like you see. Why would I do that? Like that's, you know what I mean. I don't need to sit down and write into your diary.

George:

Is that how you started? Now Every day?

Robby:

Yeah, Nah, I just fucking go on a rant.

George:

Hey, what's happening.

Robby:

You mad dog I don't need to say that Actually, no, sometimes I'll just write about what happened today. So you do it daily, not really Just do whatever, just whenever you get it.

George:

Yeah, and that's good, because you don't have that pressure like, oh fuck.

Robby:

I missed it yesterday. Sometimes you look back. I'll tell you what the first half part is. You don't remember what you wrote because you're just writing. And then you might look back at like two years ago, like I saw one the other day I had from two years on 2022. And I read what I wrote and I was like like I it kind of took me back to that moment. I was like I still feel the same way about that.

George:

Yeah.

Robby:

Like it's fucking. Two years later, I shouldn't. Do you know what I mean? And it's like well, that's stupid. Maybe it's the way I'm thinking. Do you know what I mean? And it's like it's cool. It's cool, it's great clarity. It shows you how you think, dude.

George:

And how you evolve with your thinking too. Yeah, because of some of those goals that I was looking at, I'm like dude, I was young and naive looking at that stuff. That's a silly goal. I was thinking that when I was looking back at my from 2018. I was thinking it's so small, that's good. It's good to see how far you've come. I think the reflection is very powerful when you're looking back at your goals or your entry.

Robby:

Yeah, it's hard to explain what it does to you Because it's not like you read it when you write it. You just write it and then it just sits there.

George:

Would you write a book?

Robby:

If I wrote a book, I would write a practical book.

George:

Yeah, one that will educate and help.

Robby:

Yeah, like a book where you could learn directly. Like I said, it'd have to be only because this is the type of books I like to read.

George:

Yeah, same.

Robby:

Like I want to read a book that's going to allow me to have a skill that I didn't have before I read it, or teach me a way of thinking that I didn't have before I read it. You know what I mean Kind of like some level of acquisition from it.

George:

Do you ever think of like, say anyone, any person that you follow, entrepreneur or practical book? Do you feel that they make their content up or their advice up Like they've thought about it themselves, it's an original idea? Or do you think it's an accumulation of their lessons and things that they've learned over the years, listening to other mentors, business owners, all that sort of shit, of course, as well, because I think about that too.

Robby:

Everything is an accumulation of something. Yeah, that's right Because then you can turn around and say well, did you make up this language? Did you make up that writing? Like you've accumulated something from somewhere? Yeah, and yes, you might put your own spin on it.

George:

Name phrase that's right, but ultimately it's the same sort of shit, isn't it?

Robby:

it's just maybe paints it a different way, so I'll give you an example. Right, um, something I share with a fence is if you're running ads and start working. These are the four things you don't know.

George:

I haven't learned that from anyone? Yeah, that, maybe that's from your experience. These are the things, yeah, going wrong, because I can see what's happening.

Robby:

Yeah, but I've had someone say oh, like you don't know, like this part, you're doing this part wrong or your messaging doesn't isn't connecting, like, oh, okay, like that's a thing, like you know, when I but did I create messaging? No, yeah, I mean, like, did I create target audience? No, yeah, um, but yeah, I guess all everything is someone else's, unless it's a scientific discovery. It's someone else's, true, like unless it says I was thinking about it breakthroughs in history.

George:

I was like okay, I'm, for example, I often put up some quotes on social media Do you know what I mean as a quote reel or whatever it might be? And often it's a quote that I've heard from somewhere else that I like, and I'll just regurgitate that. Sometimes I put my own spin on it, sometimes it's word for word, yeah, and I'm like well, why don't I just come an original thing? And then I was thinking is it really original, though? Do you know what I mean? Or is it because of my experience, because of things that have happened, because of things that I do in my day-to-day life? Maybe you're subconsciously. I say something that I've learned from gary vaynerchuk about life or branding, and then it's his words coming into my words, but through my mouth yeah, is there anything wrong with that?

George:

I don't know, I don't think so I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that.

Robby:

I don't know. I don't think so. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it. It's everything just regurgitated from like. Isn't it all about the end result?

George:

Do you know where? I've noticed that more so now. It's that I've been in the coaching world and mentoring and we're on stages and stuff like that now and we're talking on in front of people. When I see content being taught by somewhere else, I'm like dude, that's Patrick Bet-David. What are you doing? You know what I mean.

Robby:

And they're claiming it as their own.

George:

I've even had people what's his name? Tony Robbins.

Robby:

I've had people pull me up before and they're like did you get this from so-and-so? And I'm like, possibly? And they're like, why don't you give credit? And why do you give credit? And I'm like, because I don't know if I got it from that person. Like I consume a lot of different content and if I remember who and we've done this podcast heaps if I remember who, I'll usually say hey, I remember I watched this video from this person.

George:

Yeah, no problem, not at all. But it's also even when we're on stage I've often said, hey, I did this thing called a self-identity audit, and that was from a book that I read that Patrick did and he said, oh, this self-identity audit was really powerful. When I did it, I'm like, okay, cool, let me see that. And I'm like I could help people utilize that in their own business. And then I took it, I tailored it to construction, but I gave credit when credit was due, I said hey, I read this from Patrick Bet-David.

Robby:

I did it myself. I thought it was powerful. I want to do it with you guys now. Yeah, I think the reason why you and I have a negative association to that is because we know some people who can claim to fact, yeah, that there are things that it's like oh, this is mine.

George:

Yeah, and that comes down to just not being yeah. It's that level of being genuine and congruent with what you're doing. Yeah that as well, but then also the same token, you could argue. Well, their interpretation of that content. Like they've consumed that, they've then interpreted it in their own way and now delivered it.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

George:

Because I'm sure there's an element of that too. The way I see it is, um, like even kerwin. Do you think everything kerwin's ever taught and talked about and spoken about like we were trained by the same person, that they gave a level of training to kerwin when it comes to talking on stage? Speaking on stage, yeah, that's right. So it's funny, ever since we got trained after him how to speak on stage by right this person, we look at Kerwin and I'm like fuck, how good's that? I see exactly what he's doing. When he's telling you to put your hand up, when he's telling you to look over here, when he's using this example, when he's using this certain type of language, he wanted to evoke emotion in his audience. We could see those things now, but then it would also get to a point where I've heard stuff that he said that I've heard somewhere else before. Now I might not go. Oh, that is 100% Tony Robbins, but it could be that way inclined.

Robby:

Yeah, I think some people do it in the wrong way. I also think some people try and police everyone about it yeah, I shut the fuck up. Yeah, it's like man the wrong way. I also think some people try and police everyone about it. Yeah, generally, I shut the fuck up.

George:

Yeah, it's like man, like exactly you're. You're doing the same thing. Like, are you that concerned about someone else doing well?

Robby:

I'm thinking about this the action is the action, like the result, the the thing gets done. Regardless of why you did it or how you did it, the thing gets done.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Robby:

Like, if you go feed a poor person, like you go feed the poor, okay, you and I both go feed the poor separately. I tape it and post it on social media, and you don't. We both did the same thing. Yeah, like the same thing happened. Poor people got fed, that's it Now. Yes, maybe you can look at it and say, yeah, but he only did that because he got the likes he wanted to go and, yeah, he wanted to go and post it on social media. And why can't you do it without taping it and blah, blah, blah? At the end of the day, poor people got fed, regardless of why.

Robby:

I did it poor people got fed that regardless of why I did it.

George:

You know what I mean. The cause was, in all in all, the same good. It was the same, exactly the same, same intent happened.

Robby:

100%. Yeah, we both fed poor people. Now, your intentions yours might have been better, but regardless, the outcome was the same. But also, on whose judgment? Do you know what I mean? Yeah, but it's like. It's like the person who can do it and not tell. The outcome was the same. But also, on whose judgment? Do you know what I mean? Yeah, but it's like the person who can do it and not tell, based on you know what I mean, the person who can do it and not tell and the person who's doing it for show.

George:

I don't have an issue with that. I mean, some people might, but I don't have an issue. But, like, with taking advantage of a narrative, I don't have any issue with it either. But some people do, yeah, some people do. But I mean, you're never going to please everyone in life. That's the other thing too. You're always going to get people that are like, oh, you shouldn't do that. Oh, you shouldn't do that. Oh, you shouldn't do that.

Robby:

I have another thing Fuck up, just do what you want. Yes, I donate anonymously every single time. Yeah, because I didn't used to. And then I used to think, well, why are you really doing this? Like, you know what I mean. Are you doing this because you want them to know you donated? Or are you doing this because you want to know you donated? And if it's like, I used to do it as a test to myself, like, if you really don't get what people think here, don't tell anyone. You know what I?

Speaker 3:

mean no one has to know.

Robby:

Yeah, do it anonymously, even if you know the person, they don't have to know that you did it. You know what I mean. Do it anonymously and never talk about it. Everyone that asks you says don't know, because you did it for the cause you know. And then it's like does that really matter? Yeah, do you know what I mean? Does it really matter if I taped it and you didn't? Does it matter? Like the good thing happened?

George:

Yeah, exactly.

Robby:

And it's like the same thing with the content, like if I go and regurgitate what you taught me like and it's good information that's going to help people Does it really matter? I'm sharing what has been learnt, I'm sharing a key message of life. One day they won't be able to track it back. If I go harder than you and marketing better, if I market this message way better than what you did and you taught me, I'll probably get credit forever. There's people like you know how quotes get attributed to Churchill or something like that, and it's like do you know if he really said that? What if someone said that to him?

George:

Yeah, exactly when do you get it from?

Robby:

Yeah, what if someone said that to him and that other guy? We've got no idea who that is, but just because this guy did a better job of spreading it, I've got one of those.

George:

I've got one of those and I say it and I don't think anyone else says it it's good, builders don't build anything. They manage the building process Right. And I had an old boss say that to me once when I was a graduate. I guarantee you he's never done that in front of crowds, he's never done that. But someone's going to hear me say that.

Robby:

Oh what the fuck George is a genius, that's a George Passer quote yeah, trademark, but it's like that came from somewhere. It came from somewhere, even if it came from two different people talking.

George:

That's right. It might not even been word for word exactly what he said, but that's how I remember it, that's what I've translated to people when I'm talking to them on stage, and that time it probably wouldn't have happened. Yeah, so everything comes from somewhere, yeah, I mean, yeah, I think you know, when you're now sitting down as in the audience and you're going through a whole bunch of things of what you're going to want in your life and what's going to be most influential for you specifically in 2025 and really for the remainder of this year, there's one thing that you can do which is going to be astronomical to the to the path of success and joy and happiness for you, and that is definitely to subscribe to this podcast do you know what I mean?

George:

yeah, yeah, that should be.

Robby:

You know, when you, when you ask yourself what do you want, that should have been the first thing you wrote down. It's gonna be uh, with lifetime subscriber. So lifetime subscriber, I want to sponsor this podcast, do you not me? Oh, we're taking sponsorship, should we sponsor?

George:

George:

Yeah, making sure that you guys get this live, real, real boom. Um, yeah, absolutely like. I think the conversations we have here are powerful. I love it because we have it between ourselves and it also makes you think it's like the other day when oh good, good it's when you had that interview with um, you had that uh session with with fabian yeah I wasn't part of that episode, but I listened to it and I'm like fuck, there's some good content.

George:

I don't want to stop and take notes and I'm going to do that like I really loved it. It was really powerful shit and that was an episode I wasn't a part of, but I loved listening to it and I'm sure we'll get him back on the podcast one day. But we've covered some great topics here Over the course of over a year. Now we're into our second year of this podcast and I don't tell you to subscribe because I need your subscription to feel good about myself.

George:

I don't give a fuck if you do or you don't, in all honesty, whether you subscribe to this channel or not, but I do know that it will be important to someone that one know that it will be important to someone, that one person that listens to it, that likes it, that it connects with it and goes yeah, you know what that has really affected me in a positive way, and I think today's conversation is that. I think today's conversation I wanted to acknowledge that a guy I've never met before, a guy that I've had really small dealings with, consumed a fair bit of his content arguably was the reason why I started to create content in the first place, um, with Kerwin, just to acknowledge him, everything he had done. He has done the positive stuff, that what I saw, assuming he was a good, positive, honest guy from what I could see he was uh. But then also to deep dive into the topic of man. We're not going to be here forever we're not going to be here forever.

Robby:

We're not going to be here forever. And Gary Vee said it best once he was doing like a live presentation or whatever. And he goes everyone's asleep and you know when you're driving and you're not paying attention and you look down at your face and you're on your phone and you're barking on social media, blah, blah, blah. By the way, I saw a video of someone driving playing Candy Crush on the freeway Like what the fuck? Yeah, what the fuck?

George:

Anyway everyone's living life like this. You're sitting up high now in your car as well, so you can see all that I can see everything.

Robby:

Oh, no, no, I saw a video of someone. Oh, but sitting up high in the car is sick. We're all living life like this. You're driving, you've got one hand on the wheel, you're not even looking at the road. You're sitting there fucking around your face. You don't know how fast you're going and then you see blue and red lights and all of a sudden you shoot yourself. Your heart comes out your ass. You're like, oh my God, and you think you're going to get pulled over. And then you're like whew. And then you stop and you're like I better drive properly.

Robby:

You put two hands on the wheel and you pay attention to the speed limit and you look behind you and see who's around you and you're doing head checks before you merge and you're like two minutes, like 100 meters down the road, you're back to fucking on your phone again. You're like this is how we until grandma gets to health care or someone you know you get to call from the doctor, or you wake up and that person didn't wake up. He's like we're living life like that every day, instead of actually paying attention to what the fuck we're doing all the time and what we want, because the reality is. There's people that walked this earth 200 years ago that you would not know their names because no one talks about them anymore. And in 200 years it's going to be be us. We're going to have a youtube channel, but, but everyone else we don't know. The youtube plaque with the youtube plaque, plaques, plaques with an s plural plural with an s.

George:

Yeah, look, he did another good one with that too. Some girl he was in a car and someone a girl ran up to him and saw him in the car. She's like Gary, gary, gary. He's like what advice would you give me as an upcoming entrepreneur or an upcoming business owner? And he just looked at him and said you're going to die. Yeah, she's like you're going to die. You're going to die. She's like oh so I should create more content. You're going to die. Stop fucking around, do the things that you want to do.

Robby:

Someone was freaking out about AI to me the other day. They're like man, what's going to happen to this? I was like dude, you're going to die. Even if they kill us, you're going to die anyway. Just see what happens. See what happens. Stop stressing. Go do what you want. Live your life.

George:

Live, want live your life, live your life. I'm gonna do what I want and what's that I'm gonna end this podcast I had enough. Fuck it. See you later. Thanks, guys. No, sorry, as if we're gonna end it like that, come on, I thought you know me better, like that I'm gonna cut it off there.

Robby:

You can get the team stop it there. Stop it, yeah, right there. Kill it off there. No, get the team to stop it there. Stop it, yeah, right there.

George:

Just kill it off there? No, but we are. It is coming to an end. I hope you got a little bit out of this episode.

Robby:

Go write down what you want.

George:

Yeah, I think it's important. It's definitely changed our lives, you know, deep diving into that space and doing those sorts of things and it helps just refocus and center you as to where you want to be and what you want to achieve in your life. So I hope you get those things. I hope this episode gives you some clarity. I hope you take some fucking action, more than anything, because most of the time you guys listen, you'll feel good in the moment, not just to this podcast, but anything. You know. People get really motivated or oh yeah, I'm going to go to the gym this week, I'm going to quit smoking, I'm going to do this Like to get that level of motivation, and you probably do it for a couple of weeks.

Robby:

Then it goes yeah Also, don't wait till you get the scare. Some people don't get the scare, yeah.

George:
