1. 0:00You can avoid tons of problems in life
2. 0:03by doing one thing.
3. 0:05Going to bed on time. And so, instead of
4. 0:07setting alarms to wake up, set alarms to
5. 0:09go to sleep on time. It's hard to wake
6. 0:11up late when you go to bed at 9:00.
7. 0:13Right? And so, the thing is is that that
8. 0:15one simple behavior actually can
9. 0:17eliminate a lot of the things that
10. 0:19derail men, especially young men. And
11. 0:21so, Charlie Munger talks about this a
12. 0:22lot, which is like, all I'd want to do
13. 0:24is find out where I'm going to die and
14. 0:26never go there. The whole point is he
15. 0:29thought so much more about avoiding
16. 0:31stupidity than trying to be intelligent.
17. 0:33It's kind of like the stupidities are
18. 0:35very easy to identify, the intelligence
19. 0:36is hard. But, if you avoid all
20. 0:39stupidity, you just become intelligent
21. 0:41by default. And so, if you define
22. 0:43intelligence the way I do, which is rate
23. 0:44of learning, so how quickly you pick
24. 0:46things up, that is intelligence. If you
25. 0:48can avoid all of these things that make
26. 0:51you look like an idiot. [laughter] All
27. 0:52right? Then you become more intelligent.
28. 0:55And so, let's let's talk about this from
29. 0:56the from the the getting in shape
30. 0:58perspective. Show me a situation where
31. 1:01you have two groups of men, one group of
32. 1:03men that is really out of shape and fat,
33. 1:05and another group of men that's really
34. 1:07in shape, that are going to outperform
35. 1:09one another, and this is generalized.
36. 1:11You have to take random sampling of the
37. 1:12population, a bunch of in-shape guys, a
38. 1:14bunch of overweight guys. Who's going to
39. 1:16do better at any task over and over
40. 1:18again? If we pick 10 tasks that are
41. 1:20completely different, the in-shape guys
42. 1:21are going to do better than the
43. 1:22out-of-shape guys. Period. They're going
44. 1:24to have more energy, they're going to be
45. 1:25more focused. If it's anything in a
46. 1:27related like in a relations based, like
47. 1:29those guys are going to close higher
48. 1:30percentages. If you're better looking,
49. 1:32you will close more. If you're better
50. 1:34looking, you get paid more. If you're
51. 1:36better looking, you get more promoted.
52. 1:38If you're better looking, you do better
53. 1:40in content. Period. Fight me.
54. 1:43And so, the thing is is like if you have
55. 1:45this one thing that affects every way
56. 1:47that people see you, and the only thing
57. 1:50you have to do is control what you put
58. 1:52into your mouth, then don't you think
59. 1:53it's worth developing that most basic
60. 1:56skill of discipline at this point in
61. 1:58your life. Cuz the thing is is that
62. 2:00you want to get in shape young. Cuz if
63. 2:02you're not in shape, guess whose fault
64. 2:04that is.
65. 2:06So, get in shape now. Thing is is it
66. 2:08costs time, not money. And right now,
67. 2:12you've got time and not money. And time
68. 2:15only becomes more expensive as you age.
69. 2:18So, buy it now while time costs you the
70. 2:21least and you have the fewest
71. 2:23responsibilities. It'll help you no
72. 2:25matter what life path you choose. Real
73. 2:27quick, if you are a business owner and
74. 2:29you are not growing as fast as you'd
75. 2:30like, I'd like to give you a free gift.
76. 2:32So, my team and I put together the $100
77. 2:35million scaling roadmap, which is
78. 2:36basically 200 hours of us looking over
79. 2:38all the portfolio companies we've had
80. 2:39and what stages of growth they went
81. 2:41through and more importantly, where they
82. 2:43got stuck and how they got past it. And
83. 2:45so, we broke it into these 10 stages and
84. 2:47we made this little kind of quiz thing
85. 2:48where if you put in your business
86. 2:49information, it'll tell you where you're
87. 2:51at and the most important part for you,
88. 2:53what to do for each of functions of the
89. 2:54business across product, marketing,
90. 2:56sales, customer success, recruiting, IT,
91. 2:58human resources, and finance. And so, no
92. 3:00matter what you're struggling with,
93. 3:01someone else has already struggled with
94. 3:03it and solved it. And so, I'd like to
95. 3:05give you this thing absolutely free. You
