Why Most People Eventually Settle- Life of an Entrepreneur Vlog Episode #17


military had a special place in my heart
man look there % a special place in my
heart and anybody that served in gone
through like the way you have it’s even
higher but I’m telling you I want to
reiterate what I’m telling you is you’ve
got to go away so other people realize
that they can is wrong because the worst
thing you can do is not win then other
people can use that as an excuse to say
yeah you see how difficult it is I can’t
believe it you got to show that
[Music]
like just the fact that there’s so much
leg for some people they’ll say yeah you
know nice cars why would you buy nice
cars who cares about nice cars and who
cares about this to me every one of
these things has a story behind it let
me tell you what the story to me is
every one of these things has a story
behind it this to me is a story of this
reminds me of Iran the rolls to me is
all about Iran if you type in Google
reza shah and you type in rolls-royce
you’ll see a picture and I remember
being six seven eight years old walking
through the museum and it was one of my
favorite places to visit every one of
his pictures was put upside down and
it’s a visual till my mind till my to my
chill today to my head I’ll never forget
that visual every one of his pictures
was put upside down to represent the
fact that there was a Fault in Iran and
the Revolution happened and the hatred
was there and I still don’t like you
when I see pictures put upside down even
when somebody does it accidentally till
today
so this is a representation of my
history this means to me a certain
evolution that’s happened in my life
we have a very special guest who’s done
something amazing with the military is
here to see Patrick let’s go take a look
are your days I’m doing very well what’s
your name
mark Forrest come on Boris yes sir forty
days how long do you contact us right
now originally from Sweden california

you deployed get there we’re going I was
an alum of our province Iraq okay I was
originally in Camp Blue Diamond it
Palooza what the whole province
basically and uh when I extended my tour
took a little vacation and I went to
Thailand and I guess all the stress
every knuckle myself through I was in
use in the real world and kind of
getting jumped at a bad concussion
broken hand in Thailand I’m solo

alone just not over where I’m at why I’m
here and I’m going to know like I said I
got jumped and I was left for dead
pretty bad and and ever since then came
Houston how brought up originally from
Salinas California my worst year I
actually got stabbed and this is bad
alcoholism
you so using you guys so when that
happens I decided hey you know like I
need I need to get out put on my own
guide I need to help so I started to go
to the VA it wasn’t that great of
service it would been like a like like
the connection I had when I found when I
started watching your content I was a
fan like I’m drawn to this show okay so
it’s just a little description of the
kids basically that’s all Amir and it’s
an art piece so it’s titled help of
course this is my campaign help asking
for help not a bad thing
people actually help and you kind of you
push like a part of our group just kind
of building stuff on your own show
that’s exactly the Matali I on June 27

Wednesday I’m kind of host of March
March simulated by campaign is March 10
million campaign this card is deathly to
I love it I love it well let’s do this
I’m curious my god man you’re crapping
in there another gift if you want
something to eat the result inside was
it this was on Twitter right yes sir you
put this on Twitter got it so it’s a
2000 collection collection is Emmitt
Smith for the most part my grandfather
passed it down to me I’ve had it for
about 20 plus years in my possession and
the one thing that I defined that really
wanted you to have was my Oh Jay Simpson
welcome thank you for taking the time
for putting this together
thank you for your service and more
importantly good for you for being self
aware of yourself and wanted to make a
difference with your life even though
with all the stuff you’ve gone through
in your life you’re open about it you’re
comfortable with it and that’s the best
place to be before you make a change in
your life so like I said this was for
the value statement team this is
personally for you and it’s a mulatto
bold motion watch and those are free too
so I look at you man Mike Piazza stadium
slugger ah you remember Mike Piazza well
you know we know Mike got so well Tom
he’s a hall-of-famer now right first
ballot yet yeah reading reading catcher
and you got a Sheffield in here can’t
ship them well this is his rookie card
right yeah this is this is a yeah this
is a Sheffield rookie card man you know
I’m into cards and then you got me a
watch that I’ll probably wear more often
than my other watches
exactly something simple like this black
and fits perfectly lipedema matches what
I wanted today a perfect kind of that
I’m good for you with the timing part
oh brother thank you so much as a team
you appreciate this and I appreciate
it’s getting obvious wall Houston Texas
we got a stay in contact with but if
you’re on Facebook if you’re under
military if you have anybody that was a
veteran and you know the paint people go
through when they serve in the military
go follow them at both motion Marc Perez
I want you to tell me the success story
I want you to tell me Pat here’s what
we’re doing look how many people are
involved that’s what’s going to give you
fired up
I don’t know I mean first holes in my
sketches but second ball okay so you
take the mindset shift what are the
actions you take if someone’s watching
or like I can’t live like this anymore
what do they do on day one to agree no
doubt about it so that’s a great
question so one what causes that I think
a lot of times we wait till we’re forced
to make a major change in our lives
meaning a husband leaves us we’re forced
to pivot because we didn’t make the
decision they made it our girlfriend
leaves us our wife leaves us our mom dad
brought someone dies or bankruptcy or we
lose or the market crisis 9/11 mark he
goes and I lose all my client we don’t
typically make a drastic change in our
lives until the crisis happens typically
now sometimes some of us we see
something that’s being anticipated kind
of like a great general or a person that
sees we’re about to get some threat from
there let’s prepare now for it to happen
and then you pivot it’s kind of what
happened to me where no one would
recognize me to follow under but I would
tell you what I would do if someone’s at
that point where decisions being made
number one make a list of things you
have zero control over what do you have
no control over I don’t want to spend a
single second even thinking about this
stuff I have no control over meaning she
left me no problem I have zero control
over change in her but I have control
over change in me she broke up with me
no problem I have zero control over
changing it but I can change me they
fired me no problem I have zero control
over that company but what can I do from
me so I made a list of things I have no
control over great I made a list of
things that I do have control over what
I do have control over is my activity
what I do have control over is my hustle
what I do have control over is my work
ethic what I do have control over is the
speed of learning and the speed of
improvement in speed of relationships
that is in my hand
I control that so the more you focus on
what you control and then you keep
creating new carrots like I think
sometimes Kelsey is you know as
entrepreneurs
I’ve seen I see if somebody when I look
at him in their eyes I’m like oh my gosh
this guy’s gonna conquer the world she’s
going places this girl’s gonna get
whatever she wants two years later I
looking in their eyes I’m like what
happened to your eyes what happened here
and usually it’s that they fulfill the
carrot they wanted and because they
don’t have another carrot finally gone
so you’ve got to have a carrot after a
carrot after a carrot after if you don’t
have carrots you eventually come in
three hours later you eventually leave
four hours earlier you eventually make
20 less calls you eventually make 50
percent less effort on things you push a
little bit less because you already are
warm fuzzy some money in the bank you
have some income coming in everything is
pretty good nothing’s crazy great it’s
good you don’t have another target of
