How old are you? I'm 51 years old 51 years old Looks good. He's just like me. No hair ready to roll. He's got a cowboy hat now I want to talk to him today. Obviously. I've been following him for a while He's like, hey, I've been following you and we live here in Arizona together And if you guys go look him up on Instagram, is it the American sheriff on Instagram? Yeah, like do me a favor Just write that down real quick. Okay, because I want you to know who it is that we're talking to today And I want you to know why I'm really interested in being around him So in 2023 which is the time I'm shooting this at the end of the year. We're about to be in 2024 I told my wife at the beginning this year. I said my goal is to surround myself with better people It's always been my goal every year. My wife's like, what do you want this year? And I'm like, I just went out a few more better people. That's all I want to do Okay, because when I'm around proximity a good people, I become a better person. I learn more I study other individuals and I like that. So I've been studying him. I like the way talks I like the way works. I like the way that he takes care of people I love that he doesn't sell out, right? For being someone else for any agenda He's himself and I love that I think that this world needs to like really show the world Like who real leaders are show people what it looks like because we're men to be a man And then if you were a female to be just an awesome woman to just kill it and crush it And be the example for other people for what greatness looks like we talked about, you know This is the United States like come on man like everybody right now watching this should be successful They should be crushing it. They should be doing something big so today We hope to inspire you and we want to bring like, you know real content to you That's real shit by people that are doing real things that aren't selling out to To other people that honestly don't have anything in store, but just talk shit and Don't care about winning. Okay, so we want to win. We want to continue to level up Sheriff, how old were you when you got into law enforcement? And by the way, tell me maybe about growing up like what was that like? Well, brother. Thank you for first of all for having me here today. I mean, honestly, this is awesome And thanks for the intro. I'm like you look I've been following you for a while because I the same way I want real people. I want people that are not afraid to stand up for what this country was built on which is strong American values family pushing yourself to the to the greatness that we were all destined to be here I got it. I believe this life is about being the best you that you can be That's it and we've gotten in this world where everybody's trying to tell you you should be somebody else or something else or You can be a different sex or whatever you want to be and I just don't think that's what this world was designed to be Yeah, I think it's designed to be the greatest you you can be and I was raised by a dad who instilled that on us You know, we expected that we would be the best that we could be and he held us to a high standard Yeah, I want to say that so so we said he had a dad that held him to a high standard I just want you to think about something if if you guys have children, right? This is even more reason why you want to pay attention during this podcast Because if you don't lead your kids and if you don't show them who they can become and if you don't become The example for them, then they're not gonna follow you and they're not gonna know what to become Yeah, and I really think that a lot of parents now, you know Everybody wants to be successful, but nobody's taking care of their children or a lot of people don't realize that everything that they become Their kids are going to become that same exact thing So if you're a complainer your kids are gonna complain if you're a quitter your kids are gonna quit You know, it's like it's that so when you said your dad instilled those values If you didn't have that like you need to wake your ass up And if you're not doing that now you need to listen to what this guy's saying because that's something that's huge That's our generation. It is our generation. Look no success can compensate for failure in the home So you can be as successful as you want if you fail to raise your children to be successful and be better than you My goal is that my children are better than me. That shows that I was I did my job as a father and I'm raising men I'm not afraid to say that I'm raising men that are tough that are that know that life is not all roses and and And dandelions it is hard it can it it will challenge you especially if you're trying to take a bite out of life It's gonna challenge you and I need my kids to understand that they can get through it push through it They're tough enough and that if you want to have success in life, you've got to push hard Hey guys, what's going on? It's Andy a lot of you leave comments telling me that you need help Do me a favor. I'm gonna take the best way to get a hold of me. Shoot me a text message right now 918-210-0254 918-210-0254 I'll help you with whatever you need. I got your back for life. Let's get back to the video Yeah, and adversity is real right so like a lot of people see there how their parents handle adversity And we're really sitting on a bunch of weenies Side now, you know I'm saying like, you know how how can how can kids know how to handle a problem when shit gets hard when people make fun of them Or you know people betray them if whenever their parents have a problem, you know, they fall apart They crumble they quit they give up on stuff. They go home and bring that crap You know, I always say this my job is a as a leader of my home Is to bring good shit to my family good energy good fire good love, you know, I motivate Our team I both motivate millions of people but I motivate my family first My two daughters, they're going to get that from me. My son's going to get that from me My wife, I'm not going to have her look at me and go man. I wish I could get some of that You know, because she sees me giving that to everybody else I really like that we started this with hey, you want to do some big stuff in your life? Let's start by taking care of your home. Which is becoming a great person in your home And I love what you said it. What was that you said? No success no success can compensate for failure in the home Yeah, so it doesn't matter how much money you make if you're not taking care of your house You're felling, you know how many people we see out there that are successful financially and they've They've hit the career that they want to hit But they're raising soft children and those children don't understand that life is not easy And that they don't they're not going to get everything they want You're not going to be able to buy the house that your parents have now because they've they've worked a long time for that And so we've created this soft society Proof positive is a lot of people don't want to get into law enforcement. A lot of people don't want to get into The military right now They just don't we've raised a soft generation and we're going to pay for that And so I think it's important my message to families and dads is first of all Stay stay in your kids lives. Don't don't have a kid and then have run off You know, they need fathers. They need mothers They need both and so where in where possible keep the family intact and then be a father to those kids and teach them And make sure that they understand what life is going to bring at them the good and the bad and make sure that you support them You know, like I think most parents I do I know we didn't I didn't even answer your first question, but uh No, no, we'll we'll get there. I did a you I When I became a sheriff, I was like, man, I got to do something to help these kids You know, we had kids going and getting charged with possession of marijuana or a fight at a school or whatever And I just didn't think that they deserved a criminal record for those things And I and they were kids. They're learning how to to navigate life. They make mistakes. We all make mistakes So I went to the county attorney and I said, hey, look, I want to come over the a program that I think will help these kids And I said, if you give me some latitude, let me run with it. Let me figure it out So I went to california looked at a program out there in watsonville california Went to a few other places came back to the county attorney. I said, I know what I want I want to call it the sheriff's youth redirection program And what it would do is intercept them before they ever went to the county attorney or the court It stops right with me at the sheriff's office And I personally would go and teach those classes and I did four classes. I would tell the parents This is not punitive in nature. I'm not here to punish your kids I'm here to show your kids their greatness. I'm here to drag out of them what they are capable of And I that's my goal is for them to understand that and so we we do goal setting and planning We talk about digital media social media sexting the good and the bad of the dangers of it We talk about drugs and alcohol. You're educating them. We're educating and then we do a career night, which Having people like you or I've had people that have served 20 years in prison that have come in I've had politicians. I've had military recruiters. We bring different people in to talk to these kids about their possibilities I've had over 200 kids go through the program. I've had five reoffend And these kids what they understand is they start to see Their greatness somebody else sees in them the greatness in them as opposed to focusing on their mistakes They're making. Yeah, because we're focused on that's the deal. I was about to say because when I do something bad I feel shame. Yeah, and then I put my head down and then I everybody else like looks at me like I'm an outcast Right and at the end of the day I need someone to believe in me because if you don't believe in me and I don't believe in me Well, no one's going to believe in me I'm just going to keep doing bad stuff and I don't want to but I want attention You nailed it and that was one of the things that we had to overcome is I went to the county I started two things are happening one when they make a mistake They think they're a bad kid and they feel bad about themselves and so the next bad decision becomes easier Or they think the cops are the bad guys and we're not the bad guys We want them to succeed and we're here to help them succeed and we wanted them to know like it's all perspective You made a mistake. Yeah, like you can't change it. I tell the kids the first day. I go I don't care why you're here And they look at that kind of funny. I don't get me wrong. I care for you I don't care why you're here because I can't change it. You can't change it and your parents can't change it So why are we focused on that? I don't know if you watch the show Vikings Vikings is awesome. But one of my favorite scene from Vikings Ever and there's a lot of good ones Is when his two boys that are twins are old enough to go to battle with them and go out in pillage and and leave with the Vikings and they're probably eight to 10, you know, and They get in the boat and they're leaving shore And you know Ragnar is looking forward and his two kids are on the back of the boat with looking back towards the shore towards their mom and towards safety and He just says without even looking back. He just says He says don't waste your time looking back. We're not going that direction And it was so true. It's like, what do you waste your time looking back? You're not going that direction And so we try to focus on we get the kids focused on the the future I have focused on now And we try to tell my kids in life, you know, like focus on what's out there what you're doing today Make a difference and challenge yourself to be better. And so I've that's one of the most things I'm most proud of is a sheriff is taking that and seeing how it is impacted kids I've seen them years later where they've come up to me and said Sheriff because of you my kid went into the military or I've had the kids come up and say I was one of your kids in your u3 direction class And I wanted to say thank you. You changed my life changed the course of my life So that's one of the things I'm proud of but I try to do that at my own home And for any of you out there if you have kids Make sure you take care of your kids first. Yeah, that's it And and when you do that, not only will you be proud? Like you said, you know, like that that makes you proud like you're proud like how many people are alive right now But they're not doing anything that they're proud of right So make sure that you're doing a good job in your home. You're proud of that and then Outside of that, I remember there was a day where people had leaders and mentors And they went around and they try to help other people believe in themselves and they gave And that's kind of where we're starting this new era I believe in the way that we influence people is that we're building more leaders That's right like our goal is to live by the example not have double standards You know, hey, I don't give a shit what you've done. I've done a lot of shit wrong I've made so many mistakes But that just makes you more qualified to be a leader because you understand what other people are going through You know, like if I'm going to follow a leader, I want to follow somebody that made a lot of mistakes Some of that did all the bad stuff somebody that understands everything so that when they're trying to help me No matter what slump I fall in they can pull me out because I've been there done that I know exactly what you're going through I don't want some person and that's why I tell you a lot of people have made mistakes But they don't see that they could be this great leader And I'm here to tell you that all of you can you can be anything you want But you got to start caring you and I think you got to take care of yourself. So you're 51 years old Right, um, clearly you're in great shape. Okay every day you're out doing Your police work, which is like, you know, from you might be chasing somebody down or working out or doing whatever and running crazy And I know that you're running for senate this year. So you're going absolutely beast mode By the way, whenever it's time to vote for him this year if you're in arizona sheriff lamb for senate.com. That's it. Yeah Period. That's it. He's the man. Um, but but also on top of that, you know, you take care of your family Got a lot of kids and um, you know, your mental health is on point. Your energy is awesome. I mean guys, I'm 44 He's 51. You guys know the energy I carry. He carries the same energy I told you guys to go to instagram and literally look up the american sheriff makes you follow him But look at the way he talks to people. Look at the love that he has look at his eyes Look at the way that he's speaking. Look at the way he cares You know, if we could just emulate that and then we could just take that into whatever we're doing in life I mean, oh my god, man Like dude, your life will be amazing and then just don't quit and I guarantee in two years one year two years You're going to look up You're going to have a life that nobody will believe you could ever had and also your impact a lot of people's lives Which I think as you've gotten older, right? Like you don't join the police force to make money Right, like I mean you get paid, but like you don't join, you know, and it's a good career But it's not going to make you a millionaire. Right, right people are like, man, I want to be a millionaire I'm going to go join, you know, you do it because you want to serve other people and we got this We got this way that people look at, you know, law enforcement now that absolutely disgust me and me too, right? You know, and by the way at the end of the day If you know if your job was to go out there and when people call 911 or they have a problem or there's bad people You know, these people are going to go take care of these situations and you guys aren't grateful for that Like that's the craziest shit I've ever seen in my life. I am a stalwart Defender and supporter of this profession. Number one I think it's the most important profession to our republic the founding fathers knew it when they established it The very first charge of the constitution is found in the preamble not the bill of rights Not the articles when they said we the people of the united states in order to form a more perfect union Established justice They knew how important justice was because the men are not perfect men make mistakes And so you need a justice system you need a rule of law So I believe in the rule of law and I defend it Go into your point the average police officer in their life will in their career will experience anywhere between 400 and 700 traumatic Incidences that they have to deal with the average citizen only experiences two to four in their lifetime And we're doing 400 to 700 And go into your point If you're not mentally and physically in shape it will wear on you, which is why um suicide amongst law enforcement And military is high because for one you when you lose your brotherhood that hurts But two we've seen stuff that the average person shouldn't see yeah, and I've been you know I'm running for senate and this is not the senate ploy, but when I go around and talk to people I said look if your house was on fire or if you were um, you had thieves in your house Or which we do the government Or if you had a domestic situation going on where mom and dad can't get along You're not going to call a politician You're going to call a sheriff or the cops why we are trained and experienced in restoring balance and order to chaos That is what we do you call me I'm expected to show up to your house and I am expected in minutes To start to restore balance and order into whatever call i'm i'm responding to so If i'm not in a place where I can restore balance and order, how can I ever expect To do it, you know, we have a saying in swat and I know you guys will you you believe this too and you probably say it Is you will not rise to the occasion You will only rise to the highest level of your training If you have failed to read books and educate yourself if you have failed to be a master of your craft If you have failed to physically put yourself in a position of an advantage position Then you're not going to rise to the occasion when the time comes You will get as high as you you took yourself. Yeah, and so challenge yourself, please It's it's it's painful. It's uncomfortable But that is where all the good stuff in life is is living in that uncomfortable zone and pushing yourself We're we're capable of so much if the average human understood which is what we are capable of and You're going to have these trolls that don't challenge themselves get on and post hateful comments because they're not doing anything In their own lives. Yeah, I think a lot of people they they honestly don't They they don't like a lot of people because they don't like themselves. That's it You know anytime, um, I now I'm gonna say this because I think there was a time in my life where I was a hater I hate to say that but I was a hater because there was a guy that I went to school with That took some risks and he created a really good life And I was kind of like dude screw that guy You know, and I realized that I was like screw screw this I I don't like me that guy took a he was not better than me He was not more talented than me And he took a risk on himself and he bet against himself at a young age And he ended up creating some really success a big success bigger than mine When I was younger and I thought dude, that's some bullshit, man like that guy. That's not really who he is It wasn't who he was he had changed He had become better But I was thinking about the old him and the old him didn't deserve that But he had been doing the training he had been doing the learning and I was watching that and I really looked I go, dude, you know what that actually that guy is a badass That guy is a stud that guy did the work that guy He thought bigger than me. He had a better abundance mindset than me And here I am talking shit on this guy because he could do something that I could do too But he did it and I didn't and I'm like, dude, I'm a freaking loser and at that point You know, I always say the person that can self-correct is forever wealthy Like you gotta self-correct do and and you know Like to be a leader is like self leadership, which is like self-awareness and like self mastery And I looked in the mirror and I was like, dude, I'm a piece of shit And and I literally started to take risks just like that guy took started to read the book started to do the training Took my tv off the wall put up a white board started to write down goals You know all the things that every person goes through in the beginning of a successful journey And dude next thing, you know, I looked up man like two years down the road I was like smoking that dude now and I'm killing it and I'm like, damn man The secret is just investing in yourself doing the work and the physical side We always talk a lot about it a lot. Um, it's really important to get you on edge I know that you're in great shape at 51 to think anybody watching this You got to take care of your physical condition because you can't be mentally strong You're not going to overcome adversity. You're not going to see like any Anytime, you know, you get test days like I know this like being a police officer Like I get test days as being a businessman, but you're a businessman and a police officer and a politician and a politician That's like fucking triple twist. I don't like to say I'm a politician. I'm a more a public servant But yes, I have to go out and deal with you tested every day. Oh, yeah every day Someone's trying to fuck you every day somebody's trying to stab you in the back Every day there's an unexpected problem and every day There's a whole bunch of people that are counting on you Plus you're trying to help all these people and try to build your own life And take care of your family. Yeah, right. Those are all tests. Hey guys What's going on? It's Andy. A lot of you leave comments telling me that you need help Do me a favor. I'm gonna tell you the best way to get a hold of me. Shoot me a text message right now 918-210-0254 918-210-0254 I'll help you with whatever you need. I got your back for life. Let's get back to the video Right and people look at you and I and they I get it all the time They're gonna look at you anybody successful. They're gonna look and go Well, they've had it easy No, dude, I have I've lost everything. I've had bankruptcies. I've lost vehicles. I've lost businesses I've lost everything and you know what I kept going. I kept pushing. I kept challenging myself I didn't let those things define me. Yes. They they suck You know, I've lost last december. I could have easily have just said I'm done I last december 16th. I got a knock at the door at 8 30 at night And my wife had been rapping presence. I'd been out to dinner and I'd been rapping You know been doing some christmas shopping I get home about 8 o'clock about 8 30 get a knock on the door And it's the sheriff from the neighboring county with two of my chiefs and two guys from Gilbert PD and one of the chiefs has known my five kids. I got five kids since they were little My middle one's name is cooper and he had an 11 month old granddaughter my granddaughter and a fiance And I opened the door and you can immediately tell something's wrong And all he could say was he just looked at me and said cooper and the baby are dead You know in a flash I lost my my 22 year old son my 11 month old granddaughter and my soon to be daughter-in-law And I could have easily have just sat there and said I'm done like life's too hard Um, but I have four other kids and I have a company. I have an agency with over 600 employees I have a county of 500 000 people that is watching and they want to see if the leader is going to get up and You know The success I've had is because I've managed to find ways to push through things like that And find the good in it. I am not a negative person So everything that happens to me. I'll be like, you know what the good thing about that is The good thing is blah blah blah blah blah. Why? Because I've chosen to look at life differently Um, and I'm gonna tell you I'll tell you three things when you're ready But I one of those things is important that I tell the kids when I teach those kids in that class and um I had to live the things that I teach these kids And I will tell you nothing comes easy if you are new levels bring on new devils If you are challenging yourself, I'll let me be the let me just tell you right up front and kill the suspense You are going to go through hell Um, I guarantee you if I you told me all the things you've gone through hell to get here But that's what it takes to get to that next level And the average person gets scared when they stare down the barrel of the gun and they chose not to do it and um I've chosen to constantly try to better myself and take bigger risk and bigger chances Get in the arena with the bigger and stronger person That's what you find out what you're made of and that's where you find out what you were sent here to this earth to do I uh one of the things I tell the kids the very first thing is be authentic Be who you are Like we talk about changing. It's okay to change your your Discipline your lifestyle your be who you are But don't be afraid to change so many people like you better not change when you become successful No, you should change. Yeah Don't change you but change your lifestyle your discipline your focus your goals your change all that You have to be authentic everybody in this world has different fingerprints different dna Different irises, which is your most unique thing about you There is not a single person in this world That is like you Not one amongst billions of people If that doesn't tell you the godliness and the majesticness of your purpose here on this earth That I don't know what to tell you And I get it and I try to instill this upon my kids and upon other kids that I teach Your purpose here on this this earth is Beyond your wildest imagination And so it's your job to try to find that and strive to get to that authenticity and greatness Nobody was sent here to be small nobody was sent here to fail Nobody was sent here to wallow in self pity. You were sent here to be great And so being authentic is the very first thing you have to understand is Especially in an age of social media and everybody wants to try to be like somebody else or society's telling you Yeah, you're right. You aren't good the way you are. You should be this or that No, you are exactly who you are and you are by purpose by design And you are a one of a kind in this world And to me that is is one of the most valuable things to understand is is your authenticity Especially if you want to be successful Um, and the people that are struggling it's because they haven't embraced their authenticity They haven't embraced it when it gets painful. It's life's way of dragging that out of you Dragging what only you have to give to this world out of you And so it's our job to figure that out That's crazy shit, man That's nuts. And I'm super sorry about your son. I can't even imagine that, you know, I appreciate it I was telling my wife, um, we were talking about stress stress testing, um, just the other day Um, stress testing your marriage stress testing your, uh, your yourself Stress testing your company, um, you train for these times of the most hell chaos craziness And just unimaginable things that can happen And most people don't train for them and they don't get ready for them and they don't Embrace tests and and say man at the end of the day, you know, like like number one Like when I know I'm having a test day, I wake up. I feel like I'm getting sick I might know dude. I'm going to the gym right now Like I'm going to get up like hey or maybe I'm super tired I'm like, wait a minute like if I'm going to sleep in a day, it's not this day Like I need to get up this day and I need to prove to myself That I'm going to fucking crush this day. I need to do this for me And I'm the only one experiencing this. No one else knows I'm going through it It's just a relationship that I have on myself. I'm like, I'm going to bring more energy I'm going to have a better attitude. I'm going to smile more. I'm going to give more I'm going to put up, uh, you know, bigger numbers. I'm going to do I'm going to do that today Now tomorrow I may take off right and I'll wake up and feel good and I'm I'm okay with that But I'm not going to fucking do it today because today if I give in when I don't feel good Then that's me going down instead of going up So I say you got to identify these test days and then you lean into them and really at the end of the day Um, every time I have one of these a crazy hell day Um, at the end of the day, I like have this like euphoric moment Where I'm like, damn man Like dude, I almost wish it was harder Right because like I like I just I own that shit today and no one knows about it It's just a personal relationship. I have on myself and then I'm like, dude, I am fucking built for this shit You know, so the next time something hard comes I'm like, oh, this is one of those days. Okay, cool Well, we know what we do on these days But when you practice with those days In the event that there's a death Or something happens if you're not embracing those test days People get divorced they go bankrupt. They lose everything and they physically Crash and fall apart. I know this if I was to die And I go to heaven I'm sitting there and I'm praying that my family is going to be strong as hell If I watched them crumble because I died then honestly, I would be fucking heartbroken I'd be like no ways and like me dying like I ruined my whole family's life Like no ways like I don't want that. So I think your son will be really proud of you No one that you know, you're standing firm. You're standing strong and you know, um, Obviously, you're going to be with them soon and your whole family will be so And that was a big reason why we jumped into the senate race It was almost like my son saying no Like you can do this. This is this is the test And look as a law enforcement guy We go that's what you're when you start and you go through the academy It's like what we were talking about earlier when people walk into your training room You you laid the groundwork of look. I want to see you succeed. I love you But we're going to get real. Yeah, and we're going to stress inoculate you Yes, and you need to be stress inoculated and pressure the hell out of them in law enforcement in the academy We pressure you and then we put you on pressure when you get out of the academy. Why not for you to fail but We know the pressures that will come to you in this profession And so you need to be prepared and we want to inoculate you to that stress and When you stress somebody you're actually doing them a favor because you're you're creating a tougher harder Uh, a person that's going to be more capable of dealing with life Uh, then then if you just let them be soft, especially people are calling you when they're afraid And they're scared. What if I show up and I'm scared? Yeah, I was about to say you you it's like going into a fight You can't think that you're going to get knocked out for a second. You got to be like, dude I'm gonna knock this dude out or if you're going to wrestle someone you can't think well, man I wonder if this person's going to beat me. Dude, you're going to get beat Like so like a police officer is going into unknown situations, which are truly unknown and I mean like there's no When someone calls 911, you don't know what the fuck's going on. There's no script that says it's going to go This way this way this way this way. Yeah, there's no blueprint Everything you've trained for And you train for the nastiest and the worst and if you got lucky and it was easy, that's fine But you never know, man I you know, I think about how many times you guys walk up to cars where people are speeding even just simple everyday stuff And some dude, you don't know if he's a bad person and you know, you don't know what he knows and you know, he's like You know, you don't know man. You don't know anything, you know You don't know going into a house when it's a setup. It's a trap. It's this, you know, and that's why people You know, I love what you said in the beginning. You said police officers go through 400 to 700 traumatic experiences in their life And the normal person goes through two or four You know, the more norm most people 99.9 of the world that go through two or four Dude, they're complaining about those things right now. I mean for years. They're still talking people like i'm so sorry I'm so sorry that happened. I know that three years ago that happened to you I know it listen to me. We'll do counseling. You guys fucking deal with that every fucking every day Yeah, it's like it's funny. You should say the counseling because my wife and I were talking yesterday and we we've got It's like you have no time to even reset. I go back in another crazy situation. I told my wife. I go. We don't get that We have to just push we are we're at that level where Nobody's out there going. Hey, can I talk to you? I'm let me help like I I'm I'm the guy that has to make sure that everybody else is okay Yeah, and so if you want to get to that level then you have to become completely stress inoculated and you've got to be able to deal with Everything that life's going to throw at you and more and being a cop prepares you for that because It tells you that you can't control things. That's another one of the things So my one thing is be authentic. Yeah, my second thing is don't be afraid to do the uncomfortable work Everything good in this life comes through uncomfortable work getting yourself outside of your comfort zone If you were at a job and you just love where you're at in life I'm telling you right now Find something find something to get you out of your comfort zone. Go Judo and jujitsu do something That's going to make you uncomfortable Because that's where all the gold and the jewels. I always talk about gold rush the move, you know, they'll or the show They'll just fill a room full of dirt And they'll process and spend a whole week I mean a huge gymnasium full of dirt and at the end if they're lucky They'll have this much gold and you might say that's not worth all that work But it is the value of this is worth it So not only is the is is the The the the real goal the money and everything at the end of the uncomfortable work Your personal growth and your own greatness is at the end of the uncomfortable work So be authentic. Don't be afraid to do the uncomfortable work But the third one is probably the most important And this is what we have to learn Surrender the outcome Because in the end the only thing you can control is your attitude and your work output Everything else is outside of your control And most people who are depressed or angry or feel anxiety or unhappiness in this world It's because you are trying to control an outcome that you have no control over Take it from me at the cop for almost two decades Life that the craziest things can happen Completely out of your control I couldn't control. I wear a gun. I pull people over for DUI I could not stop the car that was DUI the day that killed my kids So I can sit and wallow in that or I can say to myself I couldn't control that outcome But what I can control is what is my attitude going to be moving forward? And what is my work output going to be and if you can learn to surrender the outcome in life You will be successful and let life take you where it's trying to take you Life is trying to open doors and we fight life and we fight success because it's uncomfortable But I will promise you if you learn to just take those chances and surrender the outcome You will watch your life will change dramatically Even if the circumstances don't change your attitude alone will change your life dramatically But I promise you life has a way of rewarding those things and you will see Your whole entire professional life change for the better All of these things will change for the better and you'll find that the things that would knock everybody else off their pedestal And probably for good will be literally speed bumps for you And you'll you'll see the good in all of those things. So be authentic Don't be afraid to do the uncomfortable work and surrender the outcome That's badass stuff, man. That's badass. And I'll say one last thing um When you get betrayed or you know, something really bad happens and you know, you've I'm not going to say pretended to be someone for a long time But you've been you know, like saying this is who I am. I'm a good leader You know, like I'm great to people When that Day happens and it's the worst day of your life Everybody's watching and waiting and saying all right All right now now we're going to really see who this guy is I got betrayed by a guy and um, you know I remember when it happened I was thinking there's two ways you could go here number one you can get pissed off You can get fucking really mad at everybody and you can become a piece of shit You can start playing the victim you can change who you are your heart can get dark You can go cold Or you can love harder You can be better you can give more You can be a more generous person a matter of fact Just fucking part of life shit happens, but you know what? I'm not going to sell out I'm not going to fucking change and become one of these people that everybody said that I was stupid my whole life For trying to be this way and I needed to become that kind of person No, fuck everybody. I'm going to stay exactly who I am. I'm going to love everybody harder I'm going to be better to everyone. I'm going to care more And I'm going to keep fucking giving and at the end of the day if I get my heart crushed again I'm totally cool with it, but I'm not going to fucking sell out and I'm going to stay exactly who I want to be And you stay in true to who you've been telling people and all these kids and everybody When this you know strike happen with your family, you're like damn, you know Okay, now I I've got now I've got four kids. I gotta take care of now. I've got my wife now I've got everybody now. I've got I've got me like dude. What the fuck like I can either fall apart Okay, and then let everybody down or I can physically rise to the occasion and I can say hey man I can't control this But you know what I can control is the way that I respond to this and I can prove to everybody else that you guys are Going to have something like this happen in your life also Okay, but I'm going to be an example of how to you know to go through this You know what I mean and not tear other people down because dude seriously like hurt people hurt people That's it. Okay, or your wounds can be your weapons It's just I have a shirt that I wear all the time that says scars Yeah, it's a eight man strong eight man strong a bunch of good dudes out here to live here in Arizona But they it just says scars Yeah, and I love it because everybody's got them Everybody's got scars some are physical some are emotional some are mental But those scars are your way of telling life Whatever it was that tried to take you out wasn't strong enough. That's right and and look i'm in politics You want to talk about being betrayed? This is the name of the game in politics your shits and it is these people will betray you all the time And if you try to constantly Figure out who you need to go after and all that because they try to tell me all the time You need to be negative. You need to be negative. I said no That's not me My wife has the best saying when you deal with haters And you deal with all because I get them haters I get all these things and and when you stand up for what's right I promise you the haters will be even Poof Like I got the government tried to tell me that I'm when I'm we're wrong So you get haters to a whole other level are wrong and to a right people fucking don't like they don't like it But my wife has the best saying She goes mark We're just going to continue to bury everybody in an avalanche of love and light Hey, that's good. Shit. That's not talking about and what we do is we go out and we smile And we treat everybody with kindness and respect Because if a lion's walking that lion doesn't care two craps about anything else that's going on around him He has one focus and that's to take care of his pride and to be the king of the jungle He don't get bothered about an ant hill on the side of the thing Whether and they're mad because he stepped on their ant hill. He doesn't care What does he do? He stays focused on what he has to do and As a leader my job is to stay focused on what I have to do As a as a person that wants to serve other people my job is to stay focused and the way I have I lead is through example and through burying people in an avalanche of love and light through understanding and saying look Yeah, you made a mistake, but you're good or you're better than this and we can be better and um There's very few unredeemable people and things in this world. I totally agree And sometimes you got to go through shit because you had a bad example But once you go through it or or maybe you're just an idiot, you know I'm saying but then something happens and dude I always say it's from today for it. I don't care about who you were. I care about who you're becoming It's all that matters. That's it.
