I didn't grow up with money we weren't
rich by any means but I knew I wasn't
going to college I knew that wasn't
reality I didn't really want to go to
college one of the things that I was
very lucky in my life with as I knew
exactly what I wanted to do from the
time I was a young age I knew I wanted
to be in the fight business and people
thought it was crazy I worked in Boston
at a place called the Boston Harbor
Hotel I was a bellman in there I was 19
years old I made good money you know
there's some guys to get those jobs and
those are the type of jobs they did you
know their life early they want those
jobs forever it's a good job it's not a
bad job this wasn't for me and I was
literally standing in the lobby one day
and I'm like what the hell am I doing
here what am I doing here this isn't me
this isn't what I want and I walked out
the front door and one of my good
friends he's still one of my good
friends today says what are you doing I
said I'm I'm quitting when you get out
of bed every morning right you get up
out of bed life is standing right there
to kick you in the face
ready leg cop ready to go to kick in the
face cuz every day when you get up bad
shits coming at you forget about work
your personal life everything car don't
start - this - that life is ready to get
you you know and you got to get up and
you got to fight through that [ __ ]
every day you have to you got to fight
through all the [ __ ] that life throws at
you
then you get to a point where life start
a bunch of [ __ ] at you now works
throwing a bunch of [ __ ] at you know
your business that you have to fight for
every day and you have to get up and you
have to have that to get up and fight
every day man go for it just go for it
believe me I'll be living proof that it
can happen
[Music]
first of all when you have a business
idea there's always going to be
detractors and people that think you
know it won't work you're always going
to have those people around you and in
your life even when you're successful
believe it gets worse when they're
successful
anything you do positive in your life
and anything that's huge it will
immediately be surrounded by negativity
right immediately get ready for it
because no matter how successful you
become one thing never goes away
negativity if their opinion means
nothing get with it it is literally an
opinion it's negative [ __ ] and it
means nothing to you it doesn't mean
anything it doesn't affect unless you're
the type sick twisted type of person
like me that likes to let it fool you
you let it it's like your you know it's
like your fuel and and other than that
it's useless it means nothing do your
things stay on your course stay focused
and keep your eye on the prize and
everything comes together if you're
looking for [ __ ] you money you're in the
wrong place already you already know
you're not in the right place I can't
stand three-day weekends
I hate three-day weekends man I'm like I
want Monday to come again that's how
much I love what I do if that's not your
mentality every weekend when you're at
home like you're dreading Monday man
stop stop and get another job cuz you're
in the wrong place that that's not
healthy for you and at the end of the
day it's really about that you love what
you're doing and it's about the journey
the people you're doing with it that
you're having fun you're getting up
every day and you're all working towards
the same goal whatever it might be it's
a very fulfilling feeling it really is a
very fulfilling feeling because I've
been where most people have been I've
been in the end the shitty job that
you're just trying to pay your bills and
you're trying to make ends meet and
you're miserable you're doing it because
you have to do it because you have to
pay your bills because you need money
once you break out of that you find what
it is you truly love to do it's really
not work it's actually fun and you enjoy
every day of your life from what I've
learned and that's I look back on my
life everything in lies is about
it really is about timing the right time
the right place the right everything and
and I also believe that you create your
own timing as I do what's the worst
thing that can happen if you try the day
that I walked out of that hotel right
and I went to do this it doesn't work
out I can go back and be a bellman again
whenever I want to you can always go
back and do that the worst part is not
trying you have to try nobody's ever
gonna do anything
without trying it's never the right time
it's never the right time saying I can't
now I I got this truck I just bought I
got payments on this friggin thing you
know I got this if you do that to
yourself you'll never do anything
forget the truck forget this forget that
go for it
just go for it believe me I living proof
that it can happen
