 So is entrepreneurship for you or are you better suited as an employee working a job for some company That's a serious question. Some people are better for one thing Some people are really would prefer to have a job and all that some think they want one or they think they want the other But they're at their personalities everything their goals are best suited for another one that they think okay So this is actually a proper question that you answer for yourself. Yes, you need to answer for yourself I want to start with this though. I want to start by saying who Entrepreneurship is not for and the big one. There's a big misconception about this a very big misconception about this Entrepreneurship is not for those people who want the easy way There is a misconception that entrepreneurship is the easy way to riches and fame the easy way to millions of dollars and The easy way to get this and that the easy way entrepreneurship No, you are the person who will fail the hardest you are the person who we get fucked over the most You're the person who will regret it the most and have the most Scorn towards entrepreneurs like oh that shit wasn't a piece of cake. Can I counter that? Yes I'm just saying that for me my life back in the day as an employee Was way harder than what it is now, but it's because I am made to be an entrepreneur And I actually am doing what I love. I'm working hard, but I'm doing what I love So it's not hard. It's really not hard right like that perspectives That's a different perspective and you're absolutely right other people would see this like that's hard I can never do that and I'd see their job and I'd be like that's hard I could never do that people literally tell me like so I face like I envy your work ethic like well it's As if that's hard like to me. It just isn't difference in personalities So there is nothing easy about the shit the entrepreneurship life requires the sacrifice people don't understand what sacrifice even means It's not giving up Netflix. It's a lot more than that It's honestly shit that 99% of people won't do and okay if you're watching this video You probably think you fit into a certain category, but 90 this is real 99% of people fit into the job life It's only about 1% of people who are actually made for the entrepreneurship life And like that's also how the world is skewed right now, but 99% of people are workers But of the people watching these videos and that are interested in Entrepreneurship most you guys are the one percenters that are made for it Maybe it's 50-50 maybe it is 99% of people watching this because you're watching our videos for a reason because we talked about entrepreneurship So you're clearly interested in it, but when I try to help my friends live my life just because I see they're not happy I'm super happy I just want them to feel the same way and I try that that's what I can really see yeah You're not exactly not the same kind of person yep yep yep So when you try to teach someone who is not an entrepreneur or has that Personality to be that it just doesn't work at all We've tried it many times like with our friends and family and now it's gone to the point where we don't try ever We don't ever like the best will say is like because we have friends who hit us up like all you guys are doing great You get this is awesome. You're in ball you live in this cool place What is it you guys do how do you do it all this shit and then normally out of all we do publishing? Let me show you this how you do keyword research look at how much money you can make you put this in you get this money out Of it all relatives for lifetimes passive income all this shit now I've learned complete utter fucking waste of time now the best I do is like just go to our YouTube channel in the description We have a resource to free training check it out and then you can learn about it The ones that will be successful entrepreneur show are the ones that will find their way on their own Yeah, I can't help you there because then you're not majoring entrepreneur if you have if you need someone to tell you Yeah, that's what having a job is you have a boss to tell you what to do And now here I am telling you what to do to be an entrepreneur doesn't make any sense And it doesn't work Yeah, and I've just seen from first-hand experience that it never works when they come to you asking as if I'm their boss And their employee and they want me to tell you what to do entrepreneurship is doing Everything yourself finding the answers yourself. It's not having someone tell you what to do There's it requires a completely different level of thinking and that's why a lot of people are made to have a job and that's fine But I wanted nothing wrong with it I want to talk about how do you know if you are not made to have a job and all I can really do is tell about my Old experiences. I know I'm not made for it and I can tell you about how I feel and what I went through in the end It's all based out of what you want. Yeah, it's all based on your goals This is always what I say like when we try to problem solve anything the first question both was always answer And it's definitely like the best approach is okay. What do you want out of this? Whatever it may be like oh, I want to start going to Jim What do I do? Okay? What do you want out of it? And then you start working backwards and figure out what approach to take do you want a Life with low risk where you're not taking chances We kind of know what you're gonna get and like you have a certain future and it's easy and it's relaxing to an extent I don't know if relaxing is the right word, but it's just it's easy and you don't have to worry about much You know what you're gonna get other than probably financial you have certainty and you have comfort Mm-hmm, then a job is for you, but how do you know a job is not for you? Okay, so let's just tell about our personal experiences back when I had a job in the morning when I had to get up and go to that job That was the hardest shit I like everyone through knowing that I had to fucking get up I'll wake up in the morning and just be like oh Fuck Not another day of this year Hear the alarm and you're just dreading what's about to come like it was so it was so bad And also we were the most unreliable employees in the world. It's a big telltale sign people know us personally I'm so fucking reliable and I stand by my word, but as an employee. I was so goddamn Unreliable they would tell me to come at this time I would not you could never count on me to show up you never knew if I was gonna be there and that was just because I Fucking hated being there and it's not so much the work itself I feel like they're even a job like I love I don't know go to the gym I love basketball these are just examples even if I had a job training people at the gym Even though I do love it I'll fucking hate to do that because I have someone else tell me what to do I'm not on my own schedule I have to listen to someone else and I just can't live that way so like no matter what like the actual Thing it is that I'm doing just the fact that someone else is paying me and telling me when to be here and what really needs to Be done how demoralizing is that it just takes away your masculinity you put you in a beta's level the way how I feel That's my opinion look the way we are we just both we just always have to be the top dog making the decisions and telling Other people what to do well That's just how I am if I were to move into a house kind of like a mass mind house I have even an entrepreneur mass my house that's my house full of other entrepreneurs I have to be the one that owns the house and makes the rules and the side shit That's just how I am I like have no responsibility and the other people in the house would probably the same way Right that's why they butt heads a lot of course if you're coming up and I follow just a lot of high-level people I would know my role to not be that way right right just the way I am I have to get to that point I want to be the top dog. I want to make all the decisions I want to tell people what to do and when people tell me what to do. I Take that very badly. I when people time what to do. I don't like to do it only because you told me to do Yeah, I was just me. I that's just that's just how my how my personality is a character flaw Probably no, I don't think it may be maybe not. I'm very rational about it. I'm very rational about it But yeah, I've had this experience for no. Yeah, we're not crazy We're not just stubborn, but where I want it this is gonna be contradicting is what I just said But I was gonna do something and then someone else told me to do that now. I'm not gonna do it anymore Yeah, I also want to say that this thing like how you feel in the morning How you do at your job like how reliable you are it stems from motivation because we have to we've had two phases in Our employment life. We've had our Employment life where we didn't have motivation and we didn't know why we were doing it or what was going on That's when we were super unreliable We always lost jobs because we didn't show up show like this was the both of us And then there's the second phase of our employment where we were employed and we were the exact opposite where we were the best Employees because we had motivation and it played in our goals It played into our goals of entrepreneurship and we knew why we were doing it We were doing it to save up money to invest in books to start a publishing business So then like both of us then we were on the best employees because there was motivation. There was fucking drive There was goal. There was a reason to do this shit. Do not get it wrong I do not think jobs are a bad thing. No for entrepreneurs No, I always tell people this if you want to build a business you need to have money to invest You're not gonna get it out of the fucking air paying off trees You need to have a job to make that money. So that's how it was for us I was super motivated to work and get as many hours as I could to get that money to invest in the publishing in that way Yeah, I was very reliable as an employee, but that's because it played into Entrepreneurship played into I'll you do to invest me on business a part of the plan I was motivated. It was literally to make that money. It was the first step in the plan Yeah, so then it was like, all right, let's fucking do this and let's go all fucking out work in the most hours Showing super on time killin super on time around time There's on time where you show up exactly at the time Then they're super on time. What are you doing? You also show up exactly on time Yeah, a job is for people who want the easy way That's also what it is people who want the easy way and don't there are a lot of people like this Who don't feel this need to be anything special You just want to be yourself and just enjoy life make 70 happy life make $70,000 a year And just by doing that you can achieve like your maximum happiness go on the job is absolutely for you And I'm super happy for you that yeah You are that way go on one vacationing year all these things the people that a job is not for is for people who are Honestly, like I will do anything for this shit I will do anything for this shit because at a job having that feeling you literally just feel like a Bundle of energy that you don't know what to do with and it's like it could turn really frustrating Or you're sitting at a job like I will do anything to all this shit But there's nothing to do because a job really limits or caps your potential That that it does let's just be honest because a lot of people don't realize what humans and what anyone is capable of So if you're a person who wants to one The spotlight that's not true because entrepreneurship and the spotlight don't necessarily want to not be known They were completely like no knows who they are. Mm-hmm. That's not me That's other people that are still major entrepreneurs though, you know, but like you want to prove people wrong You want to be the fucking bows you want these other things? All right, so I want to tell about our experience how I know that I am not made to be an employee And I just want to tell like stories from the past about us and how like more signs of that the jobs that we've had in our Experiences that yeah, so I have never wanted a job But there were times where I had to have a job and this was kind of before I had you know Like I was telling about the motivation for it to fund my business where I was kind of motivated to work But this point I wasn't but I still needed a job for money So we would have to go out and send out what's it called? Applications, so I'll do that and then like one out of 20 would reply I'd be like so unmotivated to actually really try to get this job But I knew I had to can we can we walk through a timeline of like our job history and our experience that I'm sure Oh, I have very limited job history very limited our first job ever was at 19 years old in Denmark working at a harbor like loading and unloading containers We worked there for a few months before we got fired because we kept on just we were calling like now for like yeah Like my things tomorrow my oh you use our grandma a lot like who's gonna say no It's like your grandma having only an asshole So like oh, yeah, no my grandma is having a brunch tomorrow. I just can't come I just can't work Yeah, there's no no I sprained my ankle that was kind of legit, but I can't come So then the point is we got fired because we kept on calling out sick and not showing up unreliable And I would have fired me too. Oh, and then at lunch we just my weeds stoner days Yeah, at lunch we would just nap we would just nap at lunch and then it's one o'clock now back to work Every day was counting down the fucking seconds until four o'clock every fucking day Okay, so then the next job I got a job as a bus boy slash bartender at like this bar also in Denmark And I'll just quickly tell how that went that was the worst I've ever had because it was a night shift starting I have it's not even know what this 11 p.m. To 6 a.m That was the worst I've ever had working the drunk drunk people He was so bad and that I also got fired from for the exact same reason because like oh Here's your shift and I was like I can't do that shift. Okay, then you have to work I once every other weekend. It was once every other weekend once shift every two weeks Yeah, that was a job that you had I I work in your mind. That's a job. Yes That was a job. I think I worked five shifts or six or seven for the amount of times I've heard about it in my life would have thought you worked much more Yeah, no, so it felt like so much something like oh, yeah, that did happen for you That was like a big stage. That was a job that you that was one of the biggest jobs I've had in my life these seven shifts and I just hated it so much then I was like I can't show up I just can't do this it was literally my explanation was literally like I just I just can't I can't come in I hate it so much. It's just too bad. Yeah, and then next job. Oh, there was like, oh, we can't find a stable job So then we worked at this Bureau you're just like on demand and they call you here go here They need substitutes flipping labor that any retard could do exactly which was us at the time Yeah, well how did that end also? Oh, yeah, we did it left like two months And I called like stop calling me. Yeah, stop calling me like I hate this bothering me in the morning I'm so and at this point in our life. We were very broke I mean very broke because we weren't having income from because we didn't work Many hours many jobs, but we were able to sustain ourselves like the latest motherfucker in the world I really thought I was a really lazy piece of shit, but our parents paid for rent So that's how we were able to survive. So we so we use these few hours. We work to pay for food Yeah, I just great buy. Yeah food and weed fucking low life. Oh piece of shit We were huh so and then eventually we separated for like two months because you had to go back to the US I was living in Denmark. I bottomed out smoked a lot of weed really bottomed out then I realized this is fucking pathetic. I'm pathetic and then we met up again, and then we talked where we met it We found this guy online named Stefan James these are all look at this look at this look at this And that's when everything changed then we both then I've had two jobs since then so I've had five in my life and then I worked as a Assistant at a physical therapy office office, and I was the only reliable worker there They kept on going through other secretaries like assistants like clockwork, and then they always just suck They were at the previous stage that we were at where they had no motivation to be reliable So I was just I was the solid concrete guy So I worked there for a year saved up a lot of money. I used that money for publishing then I worked another job Delivering Chinese food. That was your main thing. That was mine. That was my only job that we were also the best Chinese food What's the living Chinese food? Oh, so good at it, and it was pretty great just trying around listening I could smell the food which is nice Listening to podcast we'd listen to podcast educating ourselves about entrepreneurship and publishing I'll always show up like 10 minutes early to the job and like work overtime because motivated to I've already said that and then with those two jobs Then also we were going to college and then having absolute straight A's in college the four semesters the worst grade We ever had in over 50 classes wasn't a yeah to win the both of us But look we kind of changed like that Yeah, it's all working reliable people and it started from the motivation where we both were both like we looked at each other Shit is done. We're not fucking losers ever. So even though I've been fucking We are but that shit changes that yeah, because we could do something about we realized we were in control of our lives Yeah, that's why having each other was like the biggest you could talk. Yeah, it's like talking to other That's kind of like our story with jobs and how we knew it was not for us It all happened because motivation we suddenly have the motivation we had a reason we had our why Like why am I doing this shit? I'm doing this shit So I don't want to be a fucking loser anymore because it hurts so bad like literally being invisible Fucking invisible. So if you're like us and you feel that way then entrepreneurship is for you and you're willing to put in the work I want to end on one thing on two things Can we quickly tell both of our really awkward job interviews that we had we both had super awkward job interviews It's like the only one I've ever really been to all the ones were just for applications to give an idea of the people We're so I send an application to a restaurant I want to be a bus boy at a restaurant and I didn't want to but it was there as an option So it had slide I had the no skills. So like I fit it worked one of those minimum wage jobs Hey, but oh, it was so sad I showed up it was just me like the owner and then he asked me like the most simple questions and at that time I was Very shy very self-conscious very low self-esteem all that confidence no confidence yourself at all at all So I showed up Thought you couldn't provide any value. Yeah, and yeah, and he said he asked questions like what are your strengths? What are you good at? I was like, um, I'll show up on on time and then just awkward silence I know you what to say and then he asked like, okay, what are your weaknesses? I was like, okay here we go Okay, okay. Okay. I'm very bad at communicating. I don't want to talk. I just want to be told what to do I don't want any responsibility. Okay. Can you do that? He was like well, you gotta be able to like communicate with like your people I was like, no, I want one. I'm just in the back not talking to anyone. I think yeah But you gotta like take orders at the table. So I'm like, I don't like talking. I don't want it I don't think I can do that. Seriously. Seriously. It was really fucking awkward and he asked other random shit And it was just and it's like, okay. Thank you for that. I'll call you if we need you I'll call you never again though. What were you saying after? What do you think like that was fucking embarrassing? Yes, it was so embarrassing and never heard from it. I have a similar story. This was in Denmark We were trying to scrape up some money. We need to get some money. So I'll go get this job I found like this job online as a telemarketer. So I went to this office for the interview Sit down. He's like in a suit and everything and then he goes through a whole show like this Yeah I was wearing like a big winter coat because it was cold and rainy and I never took it off And then he was sitting there in like a nice suit and tie like super professional And then he took this is all in Danish by the way So then he took like 30 minutes to explain his company He was the owner his company what he's about what he was just talking so much about like good shit Like what I'm about what this business is about what we value what we look for in our work Is what we want to do to our customers all this year. What were you thinking the whole time? I was just like cool cool. Well at the same time. I always knew telemarketing I would hate because I suck at talking to people So but then he was asking questions about myself just very basic so that I could answer But then he came up. He did the sell me this pen Thing because it's telemarketing you're selling things on the phone, but it was this Wooden Christmas tree figurine. I was like this big he handed it to me and he said sell this to me Cuz like oh, I have to test your selling blades sell this to me Of course, and then I literally just like held it put it down and it was just like I Froze up. I completely froze up and then I saw like I don't know what to say It's okay. Just just try sell it to me like just relax. It's cool. It's no big deal This is not like some crazy exercise just sells me. I was like I Just froze up for so long. I was like, I don't I don't know what to say. I don't know how to sell I can't do this. I don't know like I don't know what you want me to say How do I sell this like I had such a lack of brain capabilities at that time And then and then it was the interview ended there So he was literally just like okay So you understand that this is a telemarketing job where we sell things on the phone like yes But you can you can sell that to me like no like okay Well, then it's probably best that we don't waste both of our times. He said that we we don't waste each other's time And we could just say goodbye now. Okay. Goodbye. See you walked out there And it was super embarrassing and I felt like shit. I felt like I couldn't fucking do anything Like I was just worthless. Yeah, I had nothing to offer anyone But anyway, that was us telling about like how we are absolutely not made to have a job And if you can relate to any of that comment down below exactly how you feel about this What is this you're in your life like why do you think you're made for one or made for the other and just please let I'd like to get some long responses Just letting out some feelings and some some like genuine thoughts that you want to tell people But maybe you can't tell people how you feel and things like that because a lot of people aren't in that position Well, they don't have anyone to talk to I'll be that person you can talk to yes those people Yes, so what should the magic emoji of the day be for that? Let's do a son Is one of these symbols that I like the most because it symbolizes like light and brightness and hope this is genuine I actually want like a son tattoo because I actually really like sons and what they symbolize So drop the son emoji and yeah, that's that say you like the video subscribe comment like More videos we stop entrepreneurship because that's what we're passionate about. Thank you
